[edit] Categories removal
Hi there! The removal of categories from the images you mention was, indeed, a little drastic, but take a look at the categories I removed. "Category:Female names"? "Category:People by alphabet"? What were these images doing in such broad categories?? I considered that the actors were best represented through their gallery page (and/or category), which could then be placed in the appropriate categories. I did check that this was the case, and placed some of the characters in Category:Charmed, which seems to have been the common thread for these people. Hope this is an okay explanation, and feel free to add better categories for the images. --Ranveig 16:42, 21 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Language proficiency
Out of curiosity, care to add userboxes to your userpage indicating what languages you are proficient in? Cirt (talk) 01:48, 6 November 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Flickr images
Hi. As a result of your request at Commons talk:Flickr images/reviewers, I have added you to the reviewers list. Please see the instructions at Commons:Flickr images/reviewers and add {{user trusted}} to your userpage. You can ask me if you need any help. Cheers, Giggy (talk) 06:15, 12 November 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Civil Air Patrol images
In reply to User talk:Closeapple#CAP images: Per Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag and Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag, the U.S. gives no copyright interest in simple copies of 2-dimensional works, and Wikimedia doesn't recognize foreign laws that conflict with that. But for a similar reason, I would think Commons' idea of "authorship" is that of the person who created the original work, not the person who photographed it; after all, one cannot upload clothing patches themselves to the Internet, only photographs of them. --Closeapple (talk) 07:17, 28 December 2008 (UTC)
- One more note on the PD-Art/PD-scan thing: The instructions say that the tags themselves are only supposed to for works in public domain, that are then photographed, then uploaded by someone other than the photographer. If the photographer is the uploader, that user should simply be using the appropriate PD tag that applies to the original work in the first place. That's probably what that uploader should have been doing for the government-created patches. For the novelty patches, his photograph (probably) neither adds nor subtracts from the original person's work either, but it's the original creator/copyright holder who has to give permission. --Closeapple (talk) 08:13, 28 December 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Licenses
Hi, could you please recheck ALL your uploads to commons? I noticed that you tagged File:Mairead Nesbitt BN signing crop.jpg as being in the public domain. This is incorrect, the uploader expressly tagged it as being cc-by-sa on Wikipedia!!! We have enough copyright violations problems without users infringing each other copyright. Thanks.

- Thanks a lot :) Sorry for the yelling, you happened to be the second person today where I noticed a license discrepancy after a transwiki so I was slightly annoyed :)! Thx again! Lucasbfr (talk) 23:13, 11 January 2009 (UTC)

I just finished your application. You are now a approved user for the media move bot.
Best regards, Abigor talk 07:20, 7 February 2009 (UTC)
- Hello,
- I don't really now how many times it runs, I think it is user activated. Here should be a better place to ask it :)
- Best regards,

[edit] Taurus Picture
Like File:Orbiting Carbon Observatory launch from Vandenburg.jpg need File:Top down view of Taurus XL carrying OCO.jpg a new Cpyright tag. Please chage the tag as uploader, thank you.--Uwe W. (talk) 18:01, 3 June 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Lori garver image
For the image of Lori Garver, I took the larger version you had uploaded and optimized the contrast and coloring. The coloring was nicer on the version I uploaded, but I like the larger resolution. So I think I fixed all that. Let me know what you think. I also saved the image at 95% JPG quality instead of 99% (that what I think it was to get to 3.38MB), and you cannot tell the difference, even fully zoomed in. Its worth the savings of 50% of the file size I think. I also repointed all the links to Lori_Garver.jpg instead of the one I uploaded. Thanks! Jonverve (talk) 13:38, 22 July 2009 (UTC)
[edit] Re:File Names
Oh, I'm sorry. I was just uploading them with the name it was put under Flickr. Can you please show me an example of how I would do the description? Thank you. -- Ipodnano05 (talk) 22:32, 16 October 2009 (UTC)
- Thank you. -- Ipodnano05 (talk) 06:22, 17 October 2009 (UTC)
[edit] Aircraft by registration
I have noticed that some editors are removing categories from aircaft images. I have a problem related to the categorisation by registration. Dont have a problem with the registration category but removing the aircraft and operators cats from the images so it only has the registration makes it very difficult to find images. Is their somewhere on Commons to discuss these daft changes. Thanks. MilborneOne (talk) 19:05, 15 November 2009 (UTC)
