If I remember correctly the speedy request was made by the uploader himself with the statement that he would reupload it with the correct permissions.--KTo288 (talk) 14:40, 6 May 2013 (UTC)

Thanks. Ticket replied and closed. Alan Lorenzo ^(talk) 21:22, 6 May 2013 (UTC)

Guidance

Hi, you recently commented at Commons:Deletion requests/Files uploaded by Fiesto bathtub that the files should have been tagged for speedy. Is there a way to do that using VisualFileChange.js? TIA. Rahul Bott (talk) 13:01, 8 May 2013 (UTC)

I personally don't use scripts or gadgets, so I'm the wrong person to ask for guidance on this, I normally do everything longhand by adding {{speedy|reason for deletion}} to the file, see Category:Candidates for speedy deletion.--KTo288 (talk) 13:06, 8 May 2013 (UTC)

Nevermind, thanks anyways! Probably some admins visiting your talk page may be of help! Regards, Rahul Bott (talk) 16:34, 12 May 2013 (UTC)

Been here to long all these new fangled gadgets and aids to editing have passed me by.--KTo288 (talk) 18:17, 12 May 2013 (UTC)

Alfredo Conde‎

Why you move images back to category:Alfredo Conde‎ in AELG‎?--Juandev (talk) 15:03, 11 May 2013 (UTC)

All the categories in Category:Images from AELG are of the same form. As I see it the ...in AELG, provides in addition to being a category of writers from Galicia, is a category of the source of the images, just as we have images from NASA or the Bundesarchive etc. adding such a source category to Category:Alfredo Conde is not appropriate as not al the images in that category are from that source. Both categories have been kept and nested.--KTo288 (talk) 15:09, 11 May 2013 (UTC)

But do you see there any category named XY in Bundesarchive? I dont. I see for example Category:Holger Börner (not Category:Holger Börner in Bundesarchive or Category:Holger Börner in German Federal Archive). It seems to me logic to group pictures which depicts Holger Börner to the basic Category:Holger Börner. As far as I never seen at Commons categorization of people by their membership in associations. Thus I thing pictures of Alfredo Conde‎ (or any other AELG writer) should be in basic category Alfredo Conde. And if you see more categories like XY in AELG, they are all wrong and should be removed than. As far as I know, we categorise images according the visible layer. So could be Barack Obama in San Francico, could be even Barack Obama in Harvard (in the case it was taken at Harvard), but cant be group of pictures Barack Obama in Asociation of the American Presidents, BO in Domocratical Party etc. If someone needs such categories, I would call them technical and thus they should be hidden.--Juandev (talk) 08:32, 12 May 2013 (UTC)

From what I can see, the categories were created by a bot which uploaded the images from the AELG website, so that in addition to the individual authors belonging to the organisation, the organisation is the source of the images. Its the way the bot named the images using "in" which I guess is the reason why this is not apparent. For Barack Obama we have for example Category:Images from FEMA, category Presidential Visit, FEMA being the source of the images. For some categories categorisation by source is accepted in others the source category is used as a holding pen until the files/subcategories are better sorted, in this case because AELG is both the source of the images and an organisation that all the subjects belong to, I think its a useful intersection to keep.--KTo288 (talk) 18:15, 12 May 2013 (UTC)

But in this case FEMA is being place on images, so it does have a sense. On the other side AELG is not a place - it is a virtual body.--Juandev (talk) 05:28, 13 May 2013 (UTC)

Although they must have offices I would consider FEMA as more of an organisation than as a physical place, it'll take some time but perhaps the best thing would be renaming the categories to example Category:Photographs of Alfredo Conde from AELG.--KTo288 (talk) 05:34, 13 May 2013 (UTC)

Within the time, I called for deletion of that and those category, so lets allow others to come up with their point of view.--Juandev (talk) 05:50, 13 May 2013 (UTC)

This would have been better served being discussed at Commons:Categories for discussion, but no matter.--KTo288 (talk) 07:23, 13 May 2013 (UTC)

Hi KTo288,

Please see OTRS ticket number 2013041210006207 for evidence that copyright has been granted on these images.

Many thanks, Tom McGuinness

Checked at OTRS, and another admin was enquiring about these, I wanted to wait until there was a reply there. However in the interim and these have been restored by another admin. My apologies for what an implicit accusation of making copyright violations.--KTo288 (talk) 12:57, 13 May 2013 (UTC)

You're welcome. Sorry we're so used to the bureaucracy that has grownup with our projects, that we forget how daunting it may seem. I hope your experience both here and at en:WP hasn't put you off contributing.--KTo288 (talk) 13:07, 13 May 2013 (UTC)

Don't worry; I won't give up so quickly.

However, most of my contributions are made in the German wikipedia (that's me: http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benutzer:Roland_Scheicher)

Thank you for your help and the best wishes from Vienna

Editing other's comments

It's a particularly underhand tactic to edit another editor's comments in a debate in a way that makes them look like an idiot, then to criticize precisely that invented action! I'm really not happy about this and it's not something that is ever accepted across WM. Why?! Andy Dingley (talk) 09:34, 20 May 2013 (UTC)

My mistake, not exactly sure how it happened, but it was not an attempt to make you look like an idiot.--KTo288 (talk) 10:05, 20 May 2013 (UTC)
