MuPad plots[edit]

Hey, about the MuPad plots, I'd be happy to help out !

I don't know what communication method fits you best, I quite like instant messaging (I use MSN Messenger), I think it would be easier. If you prefer something else, say so !

(On a side note, you're not a "pain" at all, I love doing mathematics and helping others in mathematics when I can (usually it's the others who help me !).)

Oh and by the way, if you could answer on my wikipedia page ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Sam_Derbyshire ), otherwise I might just lose track of the discussion :p

- Xedi/Sam (no account on Commons) (February 14th)

Hey hey, I see you're active, please answer !

-Xedi (February 16th, 15:20)

Just answered on my talk page.

SVG problem[edit]

Help ! U<0 doesn't work ! ! ! (That's why I must write 0>U)

<?xml version="1.0" standalone="no"?> <!DOCTYPE svg PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD SVG 20010904//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/2001/REC-SVG-20010904/DTD/svg10.dtd"> <svg width="5cm" height="5cm" viewBox="0 0 300 300" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"> <text

I just use Inkscape. Ttry writing & gt; (without the space) instead of > and & lt; (without the space) instead of <. Half the time for me, text doesn't work at all on Wikimedia unless I convert to outlines.
15:12, 18 February 2007 (UTC)

Anyone know why text deosn't work??[edit]

Does any one know why my SVGs always render wrong unless I convert the text to outlines? Even if i use a basic font like Arial or Courier, it still won't work.

MuPAD Plots[edit]

There was a long discussion about plotting techniques here, with many good ideas, tricks and tips. Due to it's length, I have put it on its own page.

Request to Screws you made[edit]

Hi can you plz make 2 svg for me for https://www.pbswisstools.com/en/tools/quality-hand-tools/special-tools/product/pb-8197v-10 use plz your system with the ring, white white, on pb the inner is black https://static.pbswisstools.com/fileadmin/_processed_/3/5/csm_SYM_PRF_ROUND-NUT__SALL__AING__V1_e7ff55e1a6.png and Pozidriv/slotted since you made all others https://www.pbswisstools.com/en/tools/quality-hand-tools/vde-and-elektronics-screwdrivers/product/pb-581801-80 use plz your system with the ring, white white, on pb the inner is black https://static.pbswisstools.com/fileadmin/_processed_/9/2/csm_SYM_PRF_PZ-SLOT__SALL__AING__V1_b1736e573f.png your https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/0/0c/Screw_Head_-_Phillips_Combo.svg + https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/f/f9/Screw_Head_-_Pozidrive.svg give Pozidriv/slotted — Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.202.49.163 (talk • contribs) 23:02, 16 December 2021‎ (UTC)[reply]

Here you go:
I didn't understand your request with the colours for the tyre valve one ("with the ring, white white"), but I used the normal standard: black is a depressed area, white is a raised area. The PB Tools page is slightly inaccurate as a real valve stem has flat sides, e.g. File:Ventileinsatz KFZ Rad.jpg. Inductiveload (talk) 23:31, 16 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

that was fast, thx very much you are correct the way you done with area black, i saw after i posted i was wrong. I downloaded some svg from the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_screw_drives and your 2 additional swg fits perfects for me, thanks again, its for my tools collection list


Hi, i have 2 more if you maybe please also can make. There a svg File from Wera Tools avaiable https://products.wera.de/images/downthrust/filter/micro_stix.svgz https://products.wera.de/images/downthrust/filter/micro_stix_active.svgz and https://products.wera.de/images/downthrust/filter/assy_active.svgz https://products.wera.de/images/downthrust/filter/assy.svgz and for the Valve Stem you made, theres a Round hole in middle for the Pin in the Tool, must be that not in the svg also like the security torx hole? many thanks if you find time.

Here you go. I redrew the vectors to tidy them up (especially the MicroStix one was not very symmetrical). And added a circle on the valve stem above.
Inductiveload (talk) 15:34, 17 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

wow Thanks very much.

Inkscape[edit]

Hi, I'm new to inkscape and I've seen in your emblems (like this one) that has a white glow at the top left, how do I do that? I tried making a circle with a circle gradient of white to transparent but it didn't work. User:Anpang01 07:14, 30 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Anpang01 In this exact case, the circle itself has the gradient from pale blue to dark blue (see here: phab:F34902777). But a semi-transparent white to transparent radial gradient on the top layer should work too. Inductiveload (talk) 14:17, 30 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Oh. Thank you! User:Anpang01 02:03, 31 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

iltools repo on Phabricator[edit]

Hello Inductiveload,

I would like to talk to you about the git repository "iltools" hosted on phabricator.wikimedia.org. Do you use that? Would it be ok with you if I disabled pushing via SSH if you could still push via https and I have docs how to do that? Would you maybe be interested in moving to gitlab.wikimedia.org? You can also reach me on IRC under the same name. Best, Mutante (talk) 20:37, 25 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Mutante sure, feel free. I would rather have used gitlab originally, but it wasn't open for sign up at the time. If it's open now, I'll just move the repo. Inductiveload (talk) 22:26, 25 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Repo now moved: https://gitlab.wikimedia.org/inductiveload/iltools Inductiveload (talk) 16:42, 27 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Wow, this is much more than expected. You already moved!:) And it looks you were able to import the whole thing from the git URL (via https?) and it imported the history? Did you do this with the web UI wizard or did you manually use git to mirror it? Either way, thank you! And what I just did on Phabricator was to disable http and ssh for that repo. I kept https active for right now. What do you think is best? Should it stay up but readonly? Do you want to make a last commit that says it was moved over and THEN we make it readonly? Should I just disable or even delete it? Either would work for me. Let me know and thank you! Mutante (talk) 18:09, 28 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Generic Placeholder SVG[edit]

Hi, I saw you created File:Generic placeholder page.djvu (and jpg and pdf versions), with the description saying it was created in Inkscape. Any chance you could upload the original svg if you still have it? I was hoping to create a similar file based on it, and thought it would be easier than trying to replicate it in Inkscape myself. Thanks! ‑‑YodinT 15:06, 12 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Pay attention to copyright
File:A mainsail haul (IA mainsailhaul00maserich).pdf has been marked as a possible copyright violation. Wikimedia Commons only accepts free content—that is, images and other media files that can be used by anyone, for any purpose. Traditional copyright law does not grant these freedoms, and unless noted otherwise, everything you find on the web is copyrighted and not permitted here. For details on what is acceptable, please read Commons:Licensing. You may also find Commons:Copyright rules useful, or you can ask questions about Commons policies at the Commons:Help desk. If you are the copyright holder and the creator of the file, please read Commons:But it's my own work! for tips on how to provide evidence of that.

The file you added has been deleted. If you have written permission from the copyright holder, please have them send us a free license release via COM:VRT. If you believe that the deletion was not in accordance with policy, you may request undeletion. (It is not necessary to request undeletion if using VRT; the file will be automatically restored at the conclusion of the process.)


  • This file is a copyright violation for the following reason: Accidental reupload of file previously deleted by Missvain per Commons:Deletion requests/File:A mainsail haul (IA mainsailhaul00maserich).pdf. The enWS admin exporting the file to English Wikisource had forgotten to tag it as ineligible for Commons, so a user reimported it here in good faith (previous deletion log isn't visible when using FileExporter). Copyright status is unchanged: first published in the UK (pma. 70) by author who died in 1967, so still in UK copyright until 2038.
Warning: Wikimedia Commons takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

This media may be deleted.
Thanks for uploading File:The Asiatic Quarterly Review - Series 1, Volume 2.djvu. I notice that the file page either doesn't contain enough information about the license or it contains contradictory information about the license, so the copyright status is unclear.

If you created this file yourself, then you must provide a valid copyright tag. For example, you can tag it with {{self|GFDL|cc-by-sa-all}} to release it under the multi-license GFDL plus Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike All-version license or you can tag it with {{PD-self}} to release it into the public domain. (See Commons:Copyright tags for the full list of license tags that you can use.)

If you did not create the file yourself or if it is a derivative of another work that is possibly subject to copyright protection, then you must specify where you found it (e.g. usually a link to the web page where you got it), you must provide proof that it has a license that is acceptable for Commons (e.g. usually a link to the terms of use for content from that page), and you must add an appropriate license tag. If you did not create the file yourself and the specific source and license information is not available on the web, you must obtain permission through the VRT system and follow the procedure described there.

Note that any unsourced or improperly licensed files will be deleted one week after they have been marked as lacking proper information, as described in criteria for deletion. If you have uploaded other files, please confirm that you have provided the proper information for those files, too. If you have any questions about licenses please ask at Commons:Village pump/Copyright or see our help pages. Thank you.

Missing Manshu maps[edit]

Hi there, I see that you recreated a map from the original set and are a WikiSource administrator. Does this mean you have access to the deleted maps? Could you please email them to me? Could you perhaps re-create the others? The list is over here. Pratyeka (talk) 21:16, 23 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I can, but you will need to reply to the email I just sent so I can reply back with the files. FYI, I did offer to do this back in October, at your Wikisource user page but you didn't reply. I sadly don't have time to recreate the others right now, due to real-life concerns, but I will try to do it "one day", unless you get there first!

Great Pics, One spell[edit]

Hi Inductiveload, I was just looking at the Besssel function page and thought that the plots were especially clean and nice, so I clicked on the user name to see the contributor. You. (I will be doing some plotting for some book writing project, so I am taking notice of quality plots.) Not to spoil the compliment but on your page you say, about books, "The whole concept explained form start to finish." I am dyslexic as heck, but my brain catches these small typos so I thought I would let you know. (from not form). My purpose was merely to send a little praise on the style/quality of the pics. -- Mlee Mlee (talk) 07:02, 20 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
