https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Orchide&diff=111744063&oldid=87601832 - what is the problem? --Palnatoke (talk) 17:42, 13 December 2013 (UTC)

The problem is, you can't take the work of other people without their permission. Do you have the permission? If yes, you need to send them to the Support team. If not, it's a simple Copyright violation. It is not enough to say who made it, if the work was not under a free license. And "made by a photographer of the museum" or something like that is not a permission to take it and it is not a free license. Marcus Cyron (talk) 17:50, 13 December 2013 (UTC)

Unless 1) the museum has all rights, 2) the uploader acts on behalf of the museum. Unfortunately, I cannot see how the images were described, so I cannot help you here. We'll just have to put this in the "sorry, National Museum, we won't use the resources that you want to share" box. --Palnatoke (talk) 18:08, 13 December 2013 (UTC)

If the uploader act on behalf of the museum, he should show this. We can't guess. But I don't think that this is really so. The images were uploaded for the danish article about the ancient greek black-figure style. Copyrights are sadly nothing we can't play with. I am happy about every image here of ancient art. And some of the images were of so bad quality, that a museum at the end should and would not be happy with them on such a public place. Marcus Cyron (talk) 18:19, 13 December 2013 (UTC)

The Starks flashlight.jpeg needs to be canceled for deletion. I've corrected the date. I wasn't aware that someone would think the upload date was the same as the publication date in which the article states when that date was (May 29, 1946)....JeremeK (talk) 20:00, 13 December 2013 (UTC)

Please - not this way! You gave NO date - how someone should know it? It also couls be an image from the 1980s! So this is a really big problem to upload files without a correct date! Marcus Cyron (talk) 20:28, 13 December 2013 (UTC)

Could you please tell me your problem? This was a category with much more than 100 images and I did not realized, there was 1 (!) that was not OK.

File deleted before I could edit the source info

You deleted File:CC_BY_3.0_BR_Chomsky.jpg (sorry for the terrible name, that was a mistake) for a likely copyright violation. I was in the process of trying to properly indicate that it was extracted from File:Chomsky-head.jpg, which is already on Wikimedia. I don't seem to be able to upload a replacement. Could you undelete it? (And maybe change the file name to something useful, like "Noam Chomsky WSF - 2003 - cropped and black and white" or some such, and tell me the right way to credit the image?)

Hallo Marcus, nicht dass Du jetzt meinst ich stalke Dich, aber was hast Du denn hiermit bezwecken wollen? Kann ich vielleicht behilflich sein? :-) --Dschwen (talk) 05:55, 16 December 2013 (UTC)

Also Hilfe und Stalking ist dann doch was sehr Unterschiedliches - und Niemand wird so dumm sein und mir gezielt hinterherstapfen ;). Es ging um Help:Gadget-GalleryDetails, um bei den Neuuploads Details einzublenden, ohne das bei den Helferlein einstellbare Gadget zu nehmen, das mir zu umfangreich ist ("Alternate view"). Was da abr genau ins js soll ist sowas von unklar - allein schon weil mit drei Farben gearbeitet wird... Marcus Cyron (talk) 11:17, 16 December 2013 (UTC)

Ich hatte deine monobook.js noch von vor fuenfeinhalb Jahren auf der Watchlist (da hatte ich da schonmal was fuer dich dran rumgefummelt). Also im jetzigen Zustand steht da nur ein String-Ausdruck, der rein gar nix macht. Du muesstest da noch ein importScript( .. ) drumherum setzte. Ich sehe aber, dass Du das auch schon versucht hattest. Hat das nicht zum Erfolg gefuehrt? --Dschwen (talk) 18:42, 16 December 2013 (UTC)

Leider nicht - allerdings kann es sein, daß ich zunächst das Helferlein ausschalten hätte müssen. Ich probiere das nochmal. Marcus Cyron (talk) 19:05, 16 December 2013 (UTC)

Your last file moves

I'm sorry, you're not welcome to rename the following uploads the way you appear to have just done:

• [1]
• [2]
• [3]
• [4]

In case you have the technical tools to undo yourself in these four entries please do it promptly, if not, I'll need to seek such assistance from some administrator. Please do not repeat this kind of activity, unless requested by users seeking having their files renamed. Orrlingtalk 00:58, 22 December 2013 (UTC)

Nonsense. Names without a usefull meaning have to be renamed. And when you want to talk to me, you use the next time an other tone! Marcus Cyron (talk) 01:17, 22 December 2013 (UTC)

I don't see where my tone here was incorrect given the fact that your rename activity onto the above files was highly inappropriate, but I had no bad intentions. with a nicer tone now, please avoid any such pattern of "renames" onto other editors' uploads because this is outside the permission of a file mover. The four filenames which you renamed were all valid and correct ones, so attempting to "rename" them is not agreed. Thank you for your cooperation and welcome on Wikimedia Commons. Orrlingtalk 01:27, 22 December 2013 (UTC)

I don't need you to agree a renaming. The meaningless naming your files is a bad joke and a slap in the face for all other employees of this project and the subsequent user of the images. In many cases, prevent use of the images - and then we do not need them. Names of files need to say something. You choose too often the easiest way. But to name a file "Nairobi" on which is to see Shoeshine in Nairobi simply don't get the point. Not just under 20 million images. You know how much images of Nairobi we have? Moreover, you should also check the categories of some of your images, there are images without cats. Also the descriptions of the files are sometimes unusable. Or why should it help someone to learn that you should not have expected would have to be on one roof alone? Show a little more respect - and use useful names for your images. Then they must also move Nobody else like me! Marcus Cyron (talk) 01:39, 22 December 2013 (UTC) PS: I'm not a File mover, I'm an Administrator!

I'm sorry but while we're talking you're keeping "renaming" more of my uploads, STOP THIS ACTIVITY. It is disruptive. You appear to have a funny sort of criticism toward my contributions, but none of my uploads is without categories and their names have nothing to do with respect ort disrespect to users, please stop your weird conduct damaging the media I've uploaded, thank you, Orrlingtalk 01:49, 22 December 2013 (UTC)

Hi Marcus, I would like to ask you why you decided that ther is copyvio in this picture. Can you restore it and change it to Deletion requests? Thanks Hanay (talk) 11:16, 24 December 2013 (UTC)

Hi, I see only one possibility - you need to send your permission to the suppurt-team. Then the image can be restored without any deletion request. In the actual form it is in my opinion not possible. There's not much to discuss - we need the written permission. Marcus Cyron (talk) 12:09, 24 December 2013 (UTC)

Hi, you're welcome! :) Marcus Cyron (talk) 01:50, 26 December 2013 (UTC)

Hello Marcus. You deleted the above mentioned file, and honestly, I'm not quite sure about the reason. This is a picture from the Spanish Ministry of the Presidency allows the use of it for any purpose. There are maybe hundreds of pictures in Wikimedia Commons from this web. Why delete this one?. There is even a Template for them (https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Template:PD-La_Moncloa_New). If your are right and all of there pictures are forbidden from Wikimedia, first thing to do is delete the template, because otherwise we users tend to think that there is legal support. Thak you! Cvbr (Talk)18:45, 26 December 2013 (UTC)

Hi, was a mistake by me - I did not realized the license. I've restored the image. Marcus Cyron (talk) 17:57, 26 December 2013 (UTC)

Accent marks

I come accross this in my watchlist:

User:CommonsDelinker/commands‎; 18:39 . . (+181)‎ . . ‎Marcus Cyron (talk | contribs)‎ (universal replace: File:Expédition de La Pérouse.jpg → File:Expedition de La Perouse.jpg)

Why are you replacing a properly spelled filename with a botched one? -- Tuválkin ✉ 18:44, 27 December 2013 (UTC)

Because there was a request to do that: Category:Media requiring renaming. I have to trust, that such requests are correct. Marcus Cyron (talk) 18:49, 27 December 2013 (UTC)

On the contrary, rename requests end up in Category:Media requiring renaming because not all users are flagged to be file-movers and their renaming requests need to be evaluated by administrators such as you, not to be mindlessly approved. If you cannot ascertain that a proposed filename change follows the relevant guidelines, then leave it aside and let someone else either reject or implement it. In this case the renaming request should have been rejected as per reason #2 for such refusal; I will presently undo the damage you allowed. -- Tuválkin ✉ 01:44, 28 December 2013 (UTC)

I have read your opinion. When the Uploader asks some minutes after uploading, ofcourse I rename it, as long it is not Nonsense! Marcus Cyron (talk) 02:04, 28 December 2013 (UTC)

In French, *"Expedition de La Perouse" instead of "Expédition de La Pérouse" is the epitome of nonsense. Nonetheless, the accented filename was/is in use in a discussion page in w:fr, suggesting that the renaming request, even under renaming reason #1, was made in attempt to fix some technical glitch (new thumbnail not loading, I’d guess), under the misguided but reasonable idea that the accent marks were causing it. -- Tuválkin ✉ 03:20, 28 December 2013 (UTC)

Kategorien

Hallo, Marcus. Die letzten Tage habe ich mich bei Commons etwas im Bereich der japanischen Farbholzschnitte rumgetrieben. Dabei ist mir aufgefallen, dass die Kategorien in diesem Bereich eher unsystematisch verwendet werden. Jetzt kann ich mir vorstellen, dass das Thema „japanischer Farbholzschnitt“ nicht zu deinem Interessensgebiet gehört, oder du auch nicht wirklich brennend am Kategoriensystem interessiert bist. Letzteres bin ich auch nicht, nur ganz so chaotisch wie aktuell sollte es auch nicht laufen. Frage ist, ob du helfen wolltest und könntest, etwas Ordnung ins System zu bringen, oder mir zumindest einen Tipp geben kannst, wer helfen könnte? (Wird spannend für mich werden, eine Kategoriendiskussion auf Englisch zu führen.) Viele Grüße. --Horst Gräbner (talk) 17:08, 30 December 2013 (UTC)

Hallo Horst, ich habe sehr gemerkt, daß da in den letzten Tagen Jemand sehr aktiv war, immerhin standen zig Bilder zur Umbenennung an. Allerdings bin ich hier wirklich komplett unbeschlagen. Am allereheseten würde mir der Kollege Arcimboldo einfallen, der offenbar selbst eine Sammlung derartiger Kunstwerke besitzt. Er hatte mehrfach Drucke beim Schreibwettbewerb als Preise ausgelobt. Mein Freund Jonathan Groß ist wohl eher nur an der Geschichte Japans interessiert, kennt aber vielleicht auch Interessierte im Bereich der Kunstgeschichte. Da hat vielleicht wiederum Julius1990 etwas Ahnung, der sich für weite Teile der Weltkunst interessiert, obwohl wohl dann doch eher für modernere sowie islamische Kunst. Aber vielleicht hat er doch mehr Ahnung als ich weiß oder wüßte zumindest Jemanden. EIne Anfrage deswegen im Portal Kunst der de:WP kann sicher auch nicht schaden. Marcus Cyron (talk) 17:22, 30 December 2013 (UTC)

Hi, Marcus. Danke für deine rasche Antwort. Das Problem sind nicht die Farbholzschnitte. In diesem Bereich habe ich ausreichend Kompetenz (siehe Kunisada Procject), meine Datenbank umfasst nach fast 20 Jahren Forschung mehr als 17.000 Nummern allein zu Kunisada und reichlich Wissen zum Gesamtkomplex. Das Problem ist die Kategorisierung der Drucke hier auf Commons. In meiner Datenbank habe ich das einigermaßen organisiert. Wünschenswert wäre aus meiner Sicht, dass es ein einheitliches, nachvollziehbares Kategoriensystem gibt, in das die bereits vorhanden und weitere, neue Fotos von Drucken auf Commons einsortiert werden können, und vor allem auch, dass die Kategorien für alle Künstler dieselben Bezeichnungen haben. Dazu müssen einige der bestehenden Kategorien umbenannt und eine ganze Reihe neu angelegt werden. Aus der de:WP weiß ich, dass Änderungen im Kategoriensystem sehr kritisch verfolgt werden; auf Commons habe ich dagegen null Ahnung, wie die Verhältnisse sind. Ich bräuchte also Hilfe von einem „Kategorisierer“. Viele Grüße. --Horst Gräbner (talk) 17:42, 30 December 2013 (UTC)

Ich kann dir da nur Eines sagen - überlege dir dein geplantes System - und beginne einfach. Sollte es Bedenkenträger geben, kommen sie. Aber wenn du ein schlüssiges Konzept hast, wirst du das auch durchbringen können. Alles in allem ist mein Eindruck, daß es hier was das angeht etwas weniger penibel zugeht. Wenn du Hilfe beim Ändern brauchst, kannst du dich gerne an mich wenden. Und falls du es noch nicht kennst - nutze Cat-a-lot (kann man in den persönlichen Einstellungen aktivieren). Marcus Cyron (talk) 18:53, 30 December 2013 (UTC)

Danke dir! Schon mal eine Frage: Kann man in Commons Kategorien umbennen? Und wenn ja, wie? --Horst Gräbner (talk) 20:08, 30 December 2013 (UTC)

Indem du die Bilder in die neue Kategorie verschiebst und die neue Kat anlegst ;). Das ist ein Werkzeug, das leider noch fehlt.

Renaming

FWIW, "Univclub54" does not qualify as a "completely meaningless name" under renaming criterion #2, and you should not have renamed it. Beyond My Ken (talk) 22:50, 30 December 2013 (UTC)

If you're looking for files to rename, look at all the images uploaded in the "Wikipedia Takes Manhattan" competitions, almost all of which are named "WTM (name of competitor) #x" or similarly, without any indication of what the subject of the photo is. Those are completely meaningless, "Univclub5" is an obvious abbreviation for "University Club 54th Street". Beyond My Ken (talk) 23:03, 30 December 2013 (UTC)

You don't think, the other name is better? I do! Marcus Cyron (talk) 00:03, 31 December 2013 (UTC)

I think the renaming was unnecessary, and that we shouldn't be usurping the choice of names made by the editors who upload the images unless there is a very good reason to do so. Jim Henderson, whose image it is, has uploaded many thousands of valuable images, and has more than earned the right to name his images the way he prefers to, as long as the name provides enough information and is not in some way inaccurate. Your usurping of that privilege without either clear necessity or, at the very least, discussion with the author was rude and uncollegial. As someone said above on this page, you shouldn't just be rubber-stamping re-naming requests without investigation, inquiry or judgment about whether it is necessary. Certainly, if you ever did it to one of my own images without discussing it first with me, your action would be brought to the noticeboards as an abuse of your filemover right. Beyond My Ken (talk) 04:00, 31 December 2013 (UTC)

This is a collaborative project. Like articles also images can be changed. The title, the discription, Categories - and yes, also the name. This is what "free license" also means. To publish an image under a free License is to give it free! And we only allowed images that allow changes. Everybody has to accept, that changes can happen. And if an other title is better, we use ofcourse the better title. Where is the problem? Where? And I speak with the people in the way they come to me. And please don't speculate about my work - you know nothing about me and how I work! You say I should not be rude - but you tell these things here to me. What do you think who you are? Marcus Cyron (talk) 04:16, 31 December 2013 (UTC)

I think I am an editor telling you that you made a bad decision, as is my right. And if you do it again, I will tell you again in exactly the same way. I don't care if you're an admin or the Queen of Sheba, no one has to "accept" the result if you screw up. You're an admin, you serve us, the Commons community, if someone comes to you with a complaint, you should gracefully acknowledge it, and at least admit of the possibility that you were mistaken, not argue back and demand that I acquiesce to the result of your poor judgment.

As for my "speculating about your work", I don't have a clue what you're talking about, my complaint is specific' to this incident and I didn't "speculate" about anything else. Beyond My Ken (talk) 05:28, 31 December 2013 (UTC)

Help needed

Hallo, Marcus. Ich bin am Üben und stoße auf die ersten Schwierigkeiten. Für die Kat „Category:Hiroshige II“ habe ich die Kat „Category:Utagawa Hiroshige II“ angelegt und parallel die creator Datei „Creator:Utagawa Hiroshige II“ anstelle von „Creator:Hiroshige II“, bzw. „Creator:Hiroshige II“ zur Weiterleitung auf „Creator:Utagawa Hiroshige II“ umgewandelt. Die Kat „Category:Hiroshige II“ ist jedoch nicht leer: Angezeigt wird dort nach wie vor ein „creator“, allerdings nicht mehr „Hiroshige II“ sondern „Utagawa Hiroshige II“. Dafür gibt es in der „Category:Utagawa Hiroshige II“ anstelle eines „creator“ nur eine Tilde als Anzeige. Was muss da noch geändert werden? Viele Grüße. --Horst Gräbner (talk) 09:37, 31 December 2013 (UTC)

Hi. Ich hab’s gefunden: „Homecat“ muss in der Vorlage „Creator“ noch geändert werden. --Horst Gräbner (talk) 09:47, 31 December 2013 (UTC)

Auch das hat sich gelöst. Da in der cat „Hiroshige III“ ein Verweis „cat see also“ auf „Hiroshige II“ war, gab es in „Utagawa Hiroshige II“ eben noch die Unterkategorie.

Hallo, Marcus. Zunächst mal ein Gutes, Neues Jahr mit den bestmöglichen Wünschen verbunden!

Und dann gleich einige Fragen:

Die cat „Category:Damaged Ukiyo-e.01.image-set of object“ enthält vier Fotos von ein und demselben japanischen Farbholzschnitt. Drei der Varianten sind verzichtbar, im Grunde der vierte auch, weil der Druck in einem so schlechten Zustand ist, dass so gut wie nichts zu erkennen ist. Werden solche Fotos gelöcht? Die dazugehörige Kategorie ebenfalls? Wie geht hier auf Commons ein Löschantrag?

In der Cat „Category:Ukiyo-e series“ gibt es die Unterseite „Thirty-Two Aspects of Customs and Manners“, die in der Form einer gallery gestaltet ist, gleichzeitig exisiert die Cat „Category:Thirty-Two Aspects of Customs and Manners“. Letztere macht Sinn, aber ist die Unterseie zulässig?

Einige der Farbholzschnitte gibt es in mehreren Varianten (einen habe ich sechs- oder sogar siebenmal entdeckt). Braucht man die vielen Varianten wirklich? Oder werden solche überflüssigen Dupletten gelöscht?

Weitere Fragen werden sicher noch folgen. Bis dahin: Viele Grüße. --Horst Gräbner (talk) 15:56, 1 January 2014 (UTC)

Hiho, dir auch alles Gute fürs neue Jahr.

Zu deinen Fragen: in den meisten Fällen löscht man eigentlich nur exakte Duplikate oder oder wenn es von einem Bild ein exakte kleinere Variante da ist. Theoretisch ist auch das Löschen von schlechterer Qualität möglich, aber eher mühsam. Da muß man sich gegen Eitelkeiten Anderer durchsetzen. Wie es geht findest du dort (oder hier auf Deutsch, allerdings schlecht), einfache rund besser kann ich es sicher auch nicht erklären. Wenn es Varianten gibt (ungleich Doubletten), ist es sogar gewünscht sie zu behalten, wir sind ja eine Art Archiv. Unterseiten - quasi die Artikel von Commons - sind zulässig, werden aber in den letzten Jahren nur noch selten gepflegt. An sich sind sie praktisch um etwa Chronologien zu erstellen, Listen zu führen und so weiter. Das können Kategorien ja nicht leisten.

Danke dir! Die eine „komische“ Cat ist weg, für die zugehörigen Fotos werde ich wohl noch einen Löschantrag stellen. Bei den „Dupletten“ gibt es Varianten, die ok wären, aber auch echte, da sie offensichtlich aus derselben Quelle stammen. Viele Grüße. --Horst Gräbner (talk) 08:39, 3 January 2014 (UTC)

Renaming trams

Somewhere else you were warned to focus your renaming zeal where it is obviously needed, and leave borderline cases untouched — that’s an advice you should probably heed. Concerning your recent renamings:

• Tm uploaded File:DSC00961 (11569617173).jpg, I renamed it to File:CCFL579(tras.)@PComércio2013dez16.jpg, and then you come and changed that to File:Elécrico na Praça do Comércio (11569617173).jpg — and you call it «changing from meaningless name», while it was the opposite:
  • The spelling "elécrico" is wrong (Tm types too fast).
  • The number 11569617173 is truely meaningless (internal ID of Flickr); 579 is the fleet number of this tramway car.
  • There’s a lot of photos of trams in Praça do Comércio; the name I used identifies this as a photo showing the back of car 579 at that location on a given date — my name was more meaningful.
  • In the process of submitting his re-rename request, Tm removed {{rotate|359}} from the file page, without discussion. How did you overlook this?
• Tm uploaded File:DSC00961 (11569617173).jpg, I renamed it to File:CCFL560descendo@StºAntºSé2013dez16.jpg, and then you come and changed that to File:Eléctrico na Rua de Augusto Rosa (11570184134).jpg — and you call it «changing from meaningless name», while it was the opposite:
  • "Eléctrico" is an obsolete spelling, no reason to use it in a 2013 photo.
  • The number 11570184134 is truely meaningless (internal ID of Flickr); 560 is the fleet number of this tramway car.
  • The name I used identifies the location better (going down by Igreja de Santo António da Sé) while the street name favoured by Tm is less exact as it is a much longer stretch of track on it.
  • You failed to remove from the filepage Tm’s misplaced renaming rationale («Also cryptic, confusing, no spaces in a meaningless name. Tm (talk) 02:54, 3 January 2014 (UTC)»)
  • Tm’s seems to be arguing that a filename must have spaces. That’s simply not so.

I find it problematic that Tm feels offended I dared to rename two of “his” files and needed to come immediately on my footsteps to change them to his liking, while hundereds of his uploads from Flickr remain in Commons with original filenames that consist (as these two did before I dared to touch them) of actually misleading random strings of numbers and letters — in direct disagreement with naming policies.

Tm should invest a fraction of the time he wasted on the needless re-renaming of these two files in better preparing of his mass uploads from Flickr — not only in changing meaningless names before uploading, but also in categorization that doesn’t mix different cities. In short, the last thing the project needs for Tm is to have other users, especially an admin, encouraging his mistakes and his pettiness.

(On a positive note, he might be granted file-mover rights — that would take you out of the loop.)

Renaming of one building of Historical District

Hi Marcus: I saw you renamed only one building of en:Ferndale Main Street Historic District based on a request by User:Green Giant. This building [6] is part of an official historical district on the en:National Register of Historic Places. Buildings on the register have official names and are identified by street address. At present, except for this building you changed, the remainder of the district is identified by either official register name, or street address. Users of the National Register list expect to find the buildings identified either by official name or street address. "Former Odd-Fellows Hall" is not the official building name on the National Register. I am afraid that by acting on the renaming request in good faith, the actual meaning of the name has been made more useless, not better. What would you suggest at this point? I think the image should be named either back to its street address to match the rest of the project of "Main Streets" or it should have its official NRIS name ("Masonic-Odd Fellows Hall") instead of a made-up name that Green Giant thought was "better" and unfortunately is not. I'm sure everyone thought it was an improvement without considering the impact to the Wiki project. A quick glimpse at Category:Ferndale, California will show at a glance which buildings are part of the historical district, they're all listed by street address! I don't personally think that is useless when the historical register paperwork and all maps go by street address. With best wishes, and hoping for a reversion, I am sincerely yours, Ellin Beltz (talk) 17:19, 5 January 2014 (UTC)

Hi Ellin, this is a deep, a normal user can't see through :). On the first view, the new name seems to be better, but your arguments are reasonable. I renamed it back, as you has suggested. Marcus Cyron (talk) 17:29, 5 January 2014 (UTC)

Thank you. Ellin Beltz (talk) 17:44, 5 January 2014 (UTC)

Well, it wasn't a "made-up name" that I thought was "better"! It was because as an outsider, I was intrigued by the use of an address rather than a name. Here in the UK, I can think of very few buildings known by their address (the prime examples being "10 Downing Street", home of the UK Prime Minister and "221B Baker Street", home of Sherlock Holmes). I nominated one file in that group rather than a brash group nomination, because I didn't think the files were named carelessly and because it took time to research the background for the file. The logic I used was that building shown in the file isn't noted for being Number 425-431 Main Street, but for being a former Masonic and Odd Fellows building. The best source for information would be the National Register website but it doesn't seem to be working properly at the moment, so I based the proposed name on two other sources. First, the California Office of Historic Preservation website, where I found two relevant pages, namely this list of registered places in Humboldt County (where Ferndale is located, but there isn't a separate listing for the building in the image), and this search listing which shows that the other Odd Fellows Halls are listed by name rather than address. The second source was page 26 of this pdf from the City of Ferndale, which shows that such places are noted primarily by name, and secondarily by the address. I added the word "former" to indicate that it was no longer being used as such.

However, per Ellins suggestion, I think "Masonic-Odd Fellows Hall, Ferndale, CA.jpg" would be a logical name, and the same logic should be applied to the other related files. Alternatively, perhaps a separate category (e.g. Category:Ferndale Main Street Historic District) might be useful for uninformed people like me? Green Giant (talk) 19:18, 5 January 2014 (UTC)

I don't think, it was a personal critic on your worst - you only did not knew it better. Together we can fix all. Marcus Cyron (talk) 23:35, 8 January 2014 (UTC)

Middleham hoard renaming

Hi Marcus! Long time no speak - Frankfurt 2011 right? Thanks for fixing the Middleham hoard filename that I requested. I wondered whether it would be easier for you to directly fix the remaining files in the category according to the same pattern (including changing single digit terminations to doubles: eg YORYM-1995.109.1 becomes YORYM-1995.109.01)? Otherwise I'm not sure if I would be able to apply for filemover rights as I actually have a very low edit count on Commons. What do you think? Thanks! PatHadley (talk) 19:02, 9 January 2014 (UTC)

Delete request for File:Steyrer MGV Saengerlust.jpg

Dear Marcus, As the manager of the Steyrer MGV Saengerlust, I felt free to add our official pic to the WIKIPEDIA article about us. This pic was taken to support all public articles of the Steyrer MGV Saengerlust and there are no special rights necessary from my side to broadcast and copy it. This pic can be found on several websites reporting about Saengerlust - even on our official homepage http://www.saengerlust.com. Please stop deletion and publish the pic...

Greetings seczimm

Hallo seczimm (if you want, we can communicate in German) - the problem is, that we only can accept image who are published under a free licese. That means, the creator, the phoographer, has to give his permission to publishing the images under a free license. I know, this can be frustrating, but depending licenses we can't make compromisses. If you are allowed to use the image for any purpose, please send a message to the support-team with a short statement, that we can use the image under a free license. Tem we cn restore the image and write the permission into the image text, so it is safe for the future. Regards. Marcus Cyron (talk) 05:33, 15 January 2014 (UTC)

Renamings

Hi Marcus, I don't think your renaming of several Greek vase pictures is a very good idea as it can break links. COM:RENAME states that "as a matter of principle it's best to leave all files with generally valid names at their locations, even if slightly better names may exist". Jastrow (Λέγετε) 14:31, 16 January 2014 (UTC)

Ys, you are right. I've tried to test something - but it don't work, as I hoped it would. Marcus Cyron (talk) 14:32, 16 January 2014 (UTC)

If you think including vase-painters in the file name is a good thing, I will try to do so from now on. Jastrow (Λέγετε) 13:15, 22 January 2014 (UTC)

It was a test - but at the end you should do it in the way you like it the most. It will be easier to do this all over categories. Marcus Cyron (talk) 07:03, 24 January 2014 (UTC)

Ionesco

Hm, ich glaube, in diesem Fall ist es doch besser, keine Weiterleitungen zu hinterlassen? Siehe Diskussion. Gestumblindi (talk) 23:07, 27 January 2014 (UTC)

Jetzt kann man das machen. Manchmal haut aber bei der Verschiebung was nicht hin, darum ist es besser, zumindest einige Zeit abzuwarten, bis die entsprechenden Programme das fixen, entlinken oder was auch immer. Marcus Cyron (talk) 01:06, 28 January 2014 (UTC)

Hum, nunja... die Programme haben in diesem Fall eben auch automatisch den Link zum Bild in den vielen Artikeln in Wikipedias und anderen Wikimedia-Projekten "gefixt", in denen das Foto (fälschlich, wie wir nun wissen) als ein Foto von Ionesco verwendet wurde - vielleicht wäre es doch besser gewesen, auf eine Weiterleitung zu verzichten und die Einbindungen so bewusst "kaputtzumachen" (und entsprechende Aufmerksamkeit in den diversen Projekten zu generieren) bzw. von Commons Delinker entfernen zu lassen (wie es jetzt in den Projekten gemacht wurde, wo ich noch nicht manuell "aufgeräumt" hatte), statt falsche Einbindungen verbleiben zu lassen? Aber gut, jetzt ist sowieso alles ok :-) Gestumblindi (talk) 20:16, 28 January 2014 (UTC)

Das kannst du aber nicht verlangen. Inhaltlich werde ich nicht anfangen, das auf anderen Projekten, deren Sprache ich nicht kenne, zu verändern. Da ist einfach zu viel Vermutung. Was weiß ich, ob es nicht in manchen Artikeln eine andere Beschreibung gibt? Oder doch der Richtige bebildert ist? Das muß einfach das Fachpersonal machen. Im übrigen wäre dann sicher Jemand Anderes hier der meckern würde, wenn ich es so machen würde (denn man kann es auf Commons nie Allen recht machen). Marcus Cyron (talk) 20:19, 28 January 2014 (UTC)

"Inhaltlich werde ich nicht anfangen, das auf anderen Projekten, deren Sprache ich nicht kenne, zu verändern" ist eigentlich genau das, was ich meinte: Wenn hier kein Redirect hinterlassen wird, löscht der Commons Delinker das Bild einfach automatisch und pauschal aus den verschiedenen Sprachversionen, so werden die Leute dort darauf aufmerksam und können sich darum kümmern - wäre hier m.E. ein brauchbarer Ansatz gewesen, auch für den Fall, dass in irgendeiner Version der Dargestellte doch schon korrekt als Enescu identifiziert gewesen wäre (dann hätte man dort bloss das Bild mit dem neuen Dateinamen wieder einsetzen müssen). Genau das ist ja inzwischen auch in den Sprachversionen, die ich nicht anzutasten wagte, doch noch passiert, nachdem die Weiterleitungen gelöscht wurden. Wenn ein Redirect belassen wird, bekommen die WP-Sprachversionen hingegen erstmal nichts vom Fehler mit und es gibt keine vergleichbare zentrale Möglichkeit, eine Korrektur anzustossen - der Redirect perpetuiert vielmehr den Irrtum und man muss alle individuell darauf aufmerksam machen, dass sie Enescu als Ionesco zeigen bzw. manuell selbst korrigieren, soweit man dazu in der Lage ist. Das habe ich in den Sprachversionen gemacht, die auf einem lateinischen Alphabet basieren und wo der Irrtum klar war (also eben als Porträt des Autors in Artikeln über Ionesco, in anderen Artikeln mit Bildunterschrift "Eugene Ionesco"), dazu muss man die Sprache nicht verstehen, sondern kann das Bild auch so mit kurzer (englischer) Begründung entfernen. Wo ich gar nicht mehr mitkomme (Schriftzeichen in anderen Alphabeten) wäre das falsche Bild hingegen vielleicht noch lange stehengeblieben, wäre der Redirect nicht gelöscht worden... - Natürlich ist "Bild zeigt eine andere Person als bisher angenommen und ist vielfach eingebunden" ein eher ungewöhnlicher Fall. Ich mein ja nur... Gestumblindi (talk) 20:34, 28 January 2014 (UTC)

OK - du hast recht und ich einen Denkfehler. Marcus Cyron (talk) 21:02, 28 January 2014 (UTC)

Ah, ist doch immer schön, wenn man überzeugen kann ;-) - Mir fällt gerade auf, dass die Wikipedias auf Farsi und Malayalam durch den "angepassten" Filenamen immer noch den Enescu als Ionesco zeigen - ich denke, der Fall ist auch in diesen beiden Wikipedias klar genug (es ist eindeutig der jeweilige Artikel über Ionesco), dass ich es trotz der für mich kryptischen Alphabete wagen werde, die Bilder auch dort rauszunehmen...

I noticed you move a couple of the page moves I requested. I was wondering if you know if there was a way that I could move the images myself? There was a user who uploaded a lot of images from a Flicker feed using the User:File Upload Bot (Magnus Manske) and did not change the names. They are all a random collection of letters and numbers from the camera used to create them (like - File:ERI6239 (5603125987).jpg). The user did go through and either put the individuals in the description or organize them with players category. I wanted to start moving some of these to better names but didn't want to inundate the system with requests. Cheers! --Leech44 (talk) 17:53, 1 February 2014 (UTC)

Hi Marcus ! I beg your pardon for my poor English, but for the subject concerning this file, I restored my justification that I had failed to register :

|1|Because it'is not ! In the other face of the capitel is the miraculous catch Luke gospel 5 1-7. This face is illustration of the end of the Luke gospel : (8) When Simon Peter saw this, he fell at Jesus’ knees and said, “Go away from me, Lord; I am a sinful man!”. (9 )For he and all his companions were astonished at the catch of fish they had taken, (10) and so were James and John, the sons of Zebedee, Simon’s partners. Then Jesus said to Simon, “Don’t be afraid; from now on you will fish for people.”.

It is this word that it is represented on this face of the capitel and more, Isaac sacrifice is out of the storytelling of this portal. Thank you to change this unforgivable mistake

Incorrect renaming?

Hello. I think there might have been an error in the renaming of File:120713_Passer_montanus_-_01.jpg which you made in December 6, 2013. (diff) The original name was probably correct: the image depicts a male Passer domesticus (enWP: House Sparrow) with a gray crown and gray cheeks, and not a Passer montanus (enWP: Tree Sparrow) with chestnut coloured crown and black patch on cheeks. It is quite common to confuse them since they often share the same flocks, have more or less the same vocalization, and are similar in colour patterns. However, the explicit difference in colour of the crown and cheeks make them easily distinguishable. Best regards, Tommy Kronkvist (talk), 23:33, 4 February 2014 (UTC).

My error; I've already been in touch with the correct admin.

Just so you're aware, two e-mails to me from Bianca's assistant Sunni at bookings[at]biancaryan[dot]com were forwarded to permissions-commons[at]wikimedia[dot]org; the first of those two (accompanying the close-up) stated, "The image that was loaded last year by us was copy-right [sic] free, dunno why its [sic] not there.

Hi,
The correct spelling is "horseback", one word, so "on horseback".

Hello. Why you rename it in Italian? Painter was French, painting now is in France. We are keeping here the oringinal name.

Deleted photo

Dear Marcus,

3 month ago, more or less, you deleted a photo called ' File:Teniente de Corbeta Carlos Daniel Vazquez (1982).jpg'.

That picture is from my dad, we used a scanner to have it on the computer (own work), and he is the one on the picture. How can i undelete that so i can put the picture in the article again?

Hi. As long you own the rights of the picture, you can write a mail to the Support-Team (see there) and there ou should write, you are the owner of the Copyright and you will publish the image under a free license (normally cc-by-sa-3.0 or newer 4.0). Then it should be no problem to restore it. Marcus Cyron (talk) 22:11, 26 February 2014 (UTC)

I'm sorry, I didn't understand your request. Every time I upload a photo from Agencia Brasil (using Upload Wizard), I choose the options: (x) This file is not my own work. -> The copyright holder published this work with the right Creative Commons license -> Creative Commons Attribution ShareAlike 3.0. So, should I also say that in the file description? Wouldn't that be redundant? Marcosfaria70 (talk) 12:55, 7 March 2014 (UTC)

Maybe - but we have too much people who upload other peoples work in an incorrect way - and not everybody knows about every system in every language or country. So you would make it easier for me - and at the end for you, because we don't have such trouble. Give as much information you can give. Marcus Cyron (talk) 13:01, 7 March 2014 (UTC)

Hätte eine Bitte...

Hallo Marcus. Ich sehe, du bist immer sehr aktiv in file moving. Könnte ich dich bitten welche ganz klein zu ändern (aber es ist wichtig...)? Es geht um alte Kunst Photos ende XIX Jahrhunderts in Category:Media contributed by the Brooklyn Museum. Die vom Category:William Henry Goodyear sind von verschiedenen Users ziemlich unordentlich aufgeladen worden, und sind nur teilweise in der korrekten Category:Photographs from the Goodyear Archival Collection wiedergegeben. Was ich so verstanden habe, Goodyears Bilder sind mit ihrer Goodyear Archiv nummer benannt (das heisst "S03 ..."). Ich arbeite schon lange an diesen Bilder, es ist sehr anstrengend, denn ich kontrolliere nicht nur dass sie in der korrekte Kunst oder Monument cat kategorisiert sind, sondern auch dass sie bei den Goodyear Bilder figurieren (wenn es Bilder von ihm sind) und auch in der Italienischen subcat wiedergegeben sind (wenn es Kunstwerke Italiens sind). Ich muss viele Bilder zusammentragen, denn oft finde ich sie nur in den Kunstwerke Italiens categorisiert, oder dann nur unter Goodyear, oder nur unter "Media contributed by the Brooklyn Museum". Dass ich eine übersicht bekomme was in Ordnung ist und was nicht, was vorhanden ist und was noch fehlt, müssen die file Namen absolut korrekt und gleichförmig sein. Man müsste allerlei file name ganz klein ändern, damit sie dann am richtigen Ort sind. Wenn du Category:Media contributed by the Brooklyn Museum öffnest, sieht du sofort dass die ersten korrigiert werden müssen: der korrekte Name ist immer "S03", also müsste man "S 03" "(S03" und "03" korrigieren. Wenn du dann mit TOC auf S springst, findest du welche andere Fehler: die ersten zwei Bilder haben im Name nicht nur einen Fehler, aber sogar den Skype logos darin! Könntest du all das sanieren? Ich wäre dir SEHR dankbar! Herzlichen Dank! Liebe Grüsse, --DenghiùComm (talk) 16:17, 14 March 2014 (UTC)

Ochsenknecht

Marcus, was soll denn das? Ich wurde freundlicher Weise auf meiner Diskussionsseite darauf aufmerksam gemacht, dass ich die beiden Brüder verwechselt habe. Logischer Weise sollte das Bild dementsprechend umbenannt werden. Die Bildbeschreibung inkl. Kategorisierung und ggf. auch Einbindungen hatte ich vor anzupassen, sobald die Umbenennung erledigt ist. Du löscht meine Anfrage dazu aus irgendwelchen formalen Gründen - dass die abgebildete Person im Bildtitel falsch benannt wird ist Dir dabei vollkommen egal? Ein sehr seltsamer Zugang. --Tsui (talk) 14:06, 21 March 2014 (UTC)

Der Name der Datei ist das Unwichtigste. Das Wichtigste ist die Beschreibung. Zuerst hat die geändert zu werden. Das hat nichts mit Formalismus zu tun. Sondern mit Rationalität, Nachvollziehbarkeit - und letztlich wird es nur dann klar, daß die Umbenennung zurecht beantragt wird. Die Verschiebung ist das Letzte was zu passieren hat. Erst dann wird klar, daß der Antrag zur Umbenennung Sinn macht. Es werden jeden Tag eine Unmenge von Anfragen gestellt, die man eben nicht alle bis ins Detail nachvollziehen kann. Für mich war der Antrag nicht nachvollziehbar. Und du kannst schwerlich verlangen, daß ich auf deiner Diskussionsseite nachforsche. Marcus Cyron (talk) 14:10, 21 March 2014 (UTC)

"Zuerst hat die geändert zu werden", aha. Zum Glück brauche ich die Funktion ja (fast) nie, habe deshalb auch nicht im Regelwerk nachgelesen, aber kann man dieses, Dein, "so hat es zu sein" auch wo nachlesen?

Wenn Dir die Nachfrage im Zweifelsfall zu mühsam ist, dann überlass so einen Fall doch einfach jemandem, der das gelassener sieht. Dass der Umbenennungswunsch vom Hochladenden kommt hätte ja schon ein Hinweis sein können, dass das kein dummer Scherz ist - eine Annahme, die ich, ohne unbescheiden sein zu wollen, beim Umfang und Inhalt meiner Uploads hier auch für recht gewagt halte. --Tsui (talk) 14:19, 21 March 2014 (UTC)

Re your revert of my image reversion

Your message "could you please tell, what you are doing here for a nonsense?" makes little sense, but I will try to explain.

Llinkster uploaded a file as File:wiki.jpg. Many other wiki's have used this name for their logo. Not realising this, I requested a rename to File:Brenda Dickson at Night of 100 Stars.jpg. This created a problem when the file was renamed, as the renamed file was automatically changed from the former to the latter. I went around to the various wikipedias and reverted the change, including to User:Moroder/gallery. --Auric (talk) 00:28, 24 March 2014 (UTC)

Umbenennungen

Hallo Marcus, schön, dass du dich in die Bewältigung des Bilder-Wustes von Lindsey mit einbringst. Verschiebungen einzelner Dateien wie diese halte ich aber nicht für sehr vorteilhaft, weil die Datei dann in der Bilderliste aus der Reihe fällt. Es wird dann aufwändiger, zusammengehörige Bilder wiederzufinden. --Toffel (talk) 15:06, 29 March 2014 (UTC)

Hi, ich wollte das alles umbenennen - aber das ist natürlich eine Mammutaufgabe. Ich habe mich da auch an anderen Beispielen orientiert, die ohnehin umbenannt wurden. Marcus Cyron (talk) 07:34, 30 March 2014 (UTC)

Among orangutans - scan

Hi Marcus! What if I scanned I a cover of a book I bought? Can't I use this image? Best, Janrzeszow (talk) 15:24, 31 March 2014 (UTC)Janrzeszow

Hi. Sadly you mostly can not use such images. Only if the image on the cover is made by (a) free picture(s). You only buy a copy of the book, not the rights on texts or images. If the image would be free, it would be possible. But then you need to say, which image it is, and why it is free. Marcus Cyron (talk) 15:27, 31 March 2014 (UTC)

April fool?

Why this renaming: https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=File:Coryphaena_hippurus_Spain.jpg&diff=120473313&oldid=120473151 ? It seems to be an April fool, as it seems clear that the picture does not show a Coryphaena hippurus. Have a look at w:Rudderfish and to w:Coryphaena hippurus if you want to be convinced. Lmaltier (talk) 20:03, 1 April 2014 (UTC)

Don't ask me. I have to trust the other user as well I trust you. Marcus Cyron (talk) 21:31, 1 April 2014 (UTC)

Well, in this case, ask the author's opinion, or ask anybody else interested in fish. The first identification may be wrong, I'm not a specialist, but the new one is for a fish with a quite different general appearance. If the renaming request was in good faith, then he might have found some reasons, some common characteristics (and very probably thinks to a female fish), but you certainly cannot consider that this renaming is an obvious correction (as mentioned in criterion 5). Also note that, if the identification is wrong, the picture must be removed from some French Wiktionary pages. It's certainly quite illogical to illustrate a page about a fish name with the picture of a quite different fish. Lmaltier (talk) 06:03, 2 April 2014 (UTC)

No. Can you imagine, how much question we would need to ask? No! Nearly all requests are correct, we have to trust here. If there is one mistake under 100 requests, this is a fixable problem. Marcus Cyron (talk) 12:48, 2 April 2014 (UTC)

It's not a matter of trust – errors can simply be obvious or not. If they are not, you can try to find evidence for them either yourself or by asking the requester, otherwise the request has to be declined. May I ask you: If we have to trust requesters, why are there filemoving criteria at all?    FDMS  4    14:22, 2 April 2014 (UTC)

I often enough had o realize, that the uploader made mistakes but don't want to see the mistake. Ask the uploader? Sorry, this brings mostly nothing. BTW - to have rules, huidelines and what ever don't means, you have to stop thinking. This maybe is the may en:WP works, but not the other projects. Marcus Cyron (talk) 20:47, 2 April 2014 (UTC)

Sure, please, don't stop thinking. But have you any reason to consider that the rule shouldn't be applied in this case? Just compare the picture of a Coryphaena hippurus and this picture, and conclude yourself. It you still feel unsure, ask several fish specialists, here, on the German Wikipedia, or anywhere. If they all agree on something, please, trust them. Lmaltier (talk) 16:32, 3 April 2014 (UTC)

I remove nothing - it is a four-eyes-principle. I request, that a second person takes a look. Now the images are deleted by an adminstrator. Why don't you write such essential informations in the description? How I should now this? There are coming every day thousands of copyvios.

Name vase of the Penelope painter

Hi, Marcus. I am Eunostos, a French contributor often working on topics and files related to ancient Greece. I am sorry to write to you in English, but I'd rather do this than inflict my German upon you, for it is embarrassingly poor (for now). I am contacting you about the five pictures stored in Category:Name vase of the Penelope Painter (you uploaded them in 2007, 2008 and 2013). Are you sure that this vase is really the name vase of the Penelope Painter ? I was searching for pictures of the name vase of this painter and I found some on the Perseus database. But according to Perseus, the name vase of the Penelope Painter is the Chiusi 1831 showing different scenes. Perseus seems to be right, for I found the reference in a book by Timothy Gantz about Greek myths and his description matches the pictures shown on Perseus. I talked about this problem on Category talk:Name vase of the Penelope Painter. Is this an erreor, or maybe a different attribution or classification ? (Apart from this problem, the reference of the vase on your files is correct : F2588 in the Pergamonmuseum in Berlin.) Thank you for reading me and thank you anyway for the photos ! --Eunostos (talk) 20:32, 6 April 2014 (UTC)

Hi Eunostos. First of all - I don't speak French - so English is completely OK. It is a multilingual project, we need such a "lingua franca". To the Skyphos. You are absolutely right - I already have changed it. I can't figure out, how this mistake was happen (btw. terrible images, but it is really hard to take photos of this vase). The name vase is the one in Chiusi. Thanks for being so attentive :). Would be fine to see one more, who's working on this area here at Commons. Marcus Cyron (talk) 21:51, 6 April 2014 (UTC)

File rename

So you saw no valid reason to trim down the long name of File:California Chrome at the 2014 San Felipe with Victor Espinoza on board and Alan Sherman..jpg - however, did you notice there are two periods before Jpg? (..jpg?) Think it's worth at least fixing that glitch, even if you don't feel the need to shorten the caption? Also, and to the point, the identical image at en.wikipedia has been approved to be moved over here and it is named File:California Chrome at 2014 San Felipe.jpg. So what to do to reconcile all this is your call, but I hope you now understand the situation. Montanabw (talk) 22:27, 8 April 2014 (UTC)

You're cause is, we should rename the file, because there is a file with the same name at en:WP. This is not a valid cause - this is simply the contrary of a valid cause. Marcus Cyron (talk) 10:40, 9 April 2014 (UTC)

Requst

Hello Marcus Cyron! If you remember, a while ago I asked you about whether I could have deleted an old version of a file that I myself uploaded. If I'm not mistaken, you said that old versions are not normally deleted on Commons. Still, I'd like to have the old version of this file deleted. The reason is that the old version doesn't contain EXIF data. I personally don't like images without EXIF data. More often than not, such files are copied from other websites. In addition, I have noticed that this old version is used in some social networks. Therefore, I think we should delete the picture in order to avoid any copyright problems. By the way, I'm trying to have this picture deleted as well. You can find the reason for my request here. Please take a look at it too. Thank you in advance! Nataev ^talk 08:41, 9 April 2014 (UTC)

Sorry, but we can't delete the image, when it is used there. This would be really mean. You have published the image here under a free licence and the reusers trust that they can refer to the image. It xould be really unfair, when they can not longe say where the original is. This would break massively the trust in Commons. And as long you are the photographer of an image, the exif-datas would be good, but we not really need them. We need at the end the image. I don't understand, why aou uploaded the new image over the old one. Bothimages show the house in very different situations. It really would be the best for Commons, if we woud have both images for free choice. I really see no cause for a deletion. Be proud of giing two different images of one motive. They both help us :).

Wiki Loves Earth auch in Deutschland

Hallo Marcus, ich bin für Wiki Loves Earth auf der Suche nach einem Commons-Admin, der uns bei der Erstellung einer Campaign hilft - als Beispiel seien die Österreicher genannt. Fühlst du dich da kompetent, das für uns einzurichten? - Eine Übersicht über die aktuell bestehenden WLE-Campaigns gibts hier - im Prinzip sollen für WLE-DE der Uploadlink in unseren Tabellen und die Campaign in Commons ähnlich aussehen. Leider fehlt uns hier rundum das KnowHow, z.B. frage ich mich wie weit zB. ein Split der Campaign in verschiedene Bereiche (LSG, NSG etc.pp, wie es zb die Ösis gemacht haben) sinnvoll ist. --Ordercrazy (talk) 06:53, 10 April 2014 (UTC)

Ich seh grad: Auch bei der Vorlagenmagie bräuchte ich Hilfe. Bei den Österreichern sieht das so aus: Campaign:wle-at-nd, die Vorlage ist hier: Template:Naturdenkmal_Österreich. Bei uns ist das komplizierter, weil unser Upload-Link bzw. die deutsche Vorlage alles abbildet: NSGs, LSGs, Geotope, Naturparks, Naturdenkmäler, FFH-Gebiete etc.pp - zudem haben wir nicht überall eine ID und schon gar keine bundesweit eigene ID. Ich fürchte, da ist auch WLE-Intern noch Diskussionsbedarf da. Ist es möglich, das erstmal ohne ID-Baustein, aber soweit vorbereitet zu übernehmen, dass wir so einen ggf. nach Bundesland und Denkmaltyp getrennt (also z.B. "Geotop in Bayer mit ID x" und "Naturschutzgebiet in Hessen mit ID Y") separierten Baustein ohne viel Mühe nachrüsten können? --Ordercrazy (talk) 07:21, 10 April 2014 (UTC)

File:동흥빌딩 아차산로197, 광진구, 서울특별시.jpg

This was not a valid rename in light of "File renaming criterion #2". Prior name was hardly "completely meaningless". While I am not opposed to improving it, replacing it with non-Latin name is not proper. The file name should retain the original English character; Korean script can be added the the description box. As the uploader, I request either a reversal of the name, or a replacement with (or addition of) of the better (even more descriptive) English name. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus ^Talk 05:06, 25 April 2014 (UTC)

Prior name was at the end meaningless. And Commons is an international project. Our rules say clear, that no language stands over the others. And also no script system. There are also not a "english character" - this is latin. Marcus Cyron (talk) 11:10, 25 April 2014 (UTC)

"No language stands over the others" means that there is no reason to change the filename from one language to another if this is the only reason for the request. You have changed the filename from something that is neither perfectly descriptive nor completely meaningless to something that 98% of users cannot understand at all. Marcus Cyron, do you have any idea what the new name stands for? I do not, it could be PCG headquartes in Ottawa as well as Building in Seoul as well as Penis penis penis – it's a filename that is completely and entirely meaningless for every user that does not understand Korean.    FDMS  4    13:25, 25 April 2014 (UTC)

Exactly. I'd use both: File:English description (동흥빌딩 아차산로197, 광진구, 서울특별시).jpg‎. English one would be sufficient too but we can accommodate two languages. English one has the priority, however, as it was the name I chose as the uploader (if we have to choose). While this file may be deleted, I hope you exercise caution in renames in the future when it comes to changing language. Also, can you or User:FDMS4 live a note about this at the page of whoever requested the name change in the first place? --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus ^Talk 03:52, 28 April 2014 (UTC)

Not a good idea to delete categories for US aircraft such as Category:A-26 Invader

I see you are deleting these and replacing them with the manufacturer prefix e.g. Category:Douglas A-26 Invader. Instead of deleting the old category I suggest it should be retained and changed to a redirect. The reason is that most people know these aircraft as A-26, F-4 etc, few know the full name of the manufacturer. These means it is easy for people to add categories starting with e.g. A-26 which Hotcat then fills in and replaces with the full name when they save. If they add the A-26 etc. categtory with the editor rather than Hotcat, there is a bot which runs frequently to move them to the correct category. Conclusion : to make it easiest for people to add categories, we need to keep all the A-26, B-17, B-29 etc. categories as redirects to the actual full name. Rcbutcher (talk) 11:39, 2 May 2014 (UTC)

Cimitero acattolico and Rome in 2012

Hi Marcus Cyron. I see you have restored the Category:2012 in Rome for your pictures of Cimitero acattolico. I think this is an unappropriate categorisation for gravestones placed there since years or ten-year periods: this category grant in fact - I believe - events occurred in the year 2012. To exemplify, is it an event occurred in Rome in 2012 the photo yo've taken to the Grave of Paul Iordanow? The event for Rome was maybe in 1920 or in 1962 when mr or mrss Iordanow die. Your usage of the Category:2012 in Rome means instead something as "Marcus Cyron was here in 2012": you'll agree that's an event for Marcus Cyron, not for the city of Rome, I think :). If you agree with my opinion, I will delighted to help you to restore the uncategorisation. Ciao. --Lalupa (talk) 06:37, 7 May 2014 (UTC)

You tihink and act first - and then you speak? And I think, you are not right. Even for such imaes it is of great importance, when they were made. Because there are the things also changing. Restorations things, other things broke up. This is a historical and archaeological thing, to know the exact date. And I think, it is unfair, that you cause with your opinion so much work for others.

Wrong rename

Next time you rename an already renamed file on behalf of Tm, make sure he’s not (as he did here) including incorrect information in the new filename he suggests. I may be an ass for prefering filenames without spaces, and he may be one too for insisting in including Flickr’s original number in Commons filenames — but one thing is certain: This photo is located where I said it was (Praça Luís de Camões, after careful analysis of the photo and of Google Street View, later confirmed in situ), not where he guessed (Largo da Graça, surely after thinking about it for half a second); the definitive filename should reflect the correct location, if any.

I will not check who ask for renaming (we have hundreds of them every day!) - and I'm not nterested in your personal problems. As long I see, a request for renaming looks OK, I will do it. I have to trust the Users. We don't have a project of mistrust. If a user makes strange things, bring it to the Administrators. This is the only practical way. Marcus Cyron (talk) 23:27, 9 May 2014 (UTC)

My personal problems, seriously…? You surely have a way with words, Mr. Administrator. (No news here, you pretty much reacted the way I predicted, based on past experience — but admin callousness is always sad to witness, even when expected.)

More to the point, your justification to allowing renaming to an incorrect name is as lame as your reaction to my interpellation: There was not, in this case, any pressing need to greenlight this renaming, even if «by uploader's request» (especially since the uploader was not a creator, this being one of hundreds of thousands of files he uploaded). You could have simply let the matter wait, it being a re-renaming with two users putting forward two different new names (because this is not «a project of mistrust», right?), and let the proponents of both names sort it out. Instead you decided to cut down on your pile, and, like a bot, “fixed” the matter with zero thought or insight.

Well, thanks so much for that, Mr. Administraror. I’ll take it from here and will correct the misleadingly detailed filename with wrong information you enabled.

Renaming Image Files on Wikipedia HELP

Hi Marcus Cyron,

I sent an email to permissions@wikipedia, and I wanted to ask you for the BEST way to rename file images, as well as link or upload file images to Wikipedia.

In an article for Creation, I wrote this:

|image                =Madeline Sands

However, it does not work. I am having a lot of trouble adding and renaming images. From now on, I will upload images with the exact file description that I would like to have on Wikipedia. I've read a number of Wikipedia help guides for photos, but I still have trouble. Please assist.

I work at Small World Social, the copyright holder of this work, and on behalf of Small World Social, I hereby publish it under the following license: Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 3.0 Unported License.

This is the Flickr account link for all of the images:https://www.flickr.com/photos/smallworldsocial/

Thank you,

Hi Julie - the first is, that the images (and also the videos) have fitting descriptions and we need the creators and sources. If we have it, we should think which names are really fit. I think, the upload names are not bad - but if they are incorrect or if you have ideas for beter names, a renaming is ofcourse possible. But in my opinion, the suggestions for new names were not really better than the original. Really hard to read, very long and without spaces between the words. Maybe shorter names. Marcus Cyron (talk) 19:13, 13 May 2014 (UTC)

Ganz schön aufwändig...

... die Bezeichnungen von zwei Dateien zu tauschen (Die Gartenlaube (1883) b 208 1.jpg <-> Die Gartenlaube (1883) b 208 2.jpg). Statt des von mir gemachten Verschiebens und Löschens wäre es wahrscheinlich einfacher gewesen, wenn ich einfach die Bilder ausgetauscht hätte. Welche Methode ist denn "offiziell" die richtige. --Arnd (talk) 09:11, 14 May 2014 (UTC)

Ich glaube, da gibt es kein "offiziell". Um Verwirrungen zu vermeiden, ist wohl die erste Form trotz des Aufwandes die Bessere. Marcus Cyron (talk) 09:17, 14 May 2014 (UTC)

Ich weiß ja nicht wie oft das mit dem Austauschen vorkommt, aber es wäre natürlich schön, wenn es dafür einen Request geben würde. Dann hätten beide Seiten weniger Arbeit. --Arnd (talk) 13:58, 14 May 2014 (UTC)

User:Maxxl2

Kannst Du mal diesen Nutzer in die richtige Spur weisen. Er macht meine Umbenennungen der Verkehrszeichen rückgängig und meint, daß die Benennung von Quellen etc. in der Datei überflüssig sind. Sh. auch meine Disk ([7]). Auch möchte er mich da für meine Arbeit an den Verkehrzeichen VM melden. Ich denke der fühlt sich nur gestört, nachdem ich es wagte eines seiner zweieinhalb Verkehrszeichen, die er hier reingestellt hat, zu verbessern. Mediatus (talk) 10:51, 14 May 2014 (UTC)

Inzwischen hast Du ja sicher gesehen, daß in all den StVOs so viele – auch im Dateinamen – gleiche Dubletten (oder fast Dubletten) vorkommen, daß eine einheitliche und korrekte Benennung nötig ist. Auch die Farbwahl sollte in die Benennung des Bildes, da es ab und an nur sie ist, die sich von einer StVO zur nächsten ändert. Aber sag das mal diesem Nutzer! Mediatus (talk) 10:55, 14 May 2014 (UTC)

Wir hatten auch schon den Fall daß Leute das Verkehrszeichen einer älteren StVO überschrieben haben, nur weil das neue genauso hieß Siehe hier: [8]. Bei einem genauen Dateinamen (mit Hinweis auf die jeweilige StVO) wäre so etwas nicht passiert. Aber das will Maxxl2 ja nicht. Mediatus (talk) 11:05, 14 May 2014 (UTC)

Ich nutze keine vorgegebenen Vektordaten aus dem Internet für meine Verkehrszeichen. Die Gesetzesvorlagen (Reichsgesetzblätter, Bundesgesetzblätter und Gesetzestexte der DDR, insbesonders die TGLs, in denen die Verkehrszeichen exakt beschrieben und wiedergegeben sind – sogar für die Bohrlöcher gibt in einer TGL einen eigenen Absatz, in dem alle Varienten exakt vermaßt aufgelistet sind. Maxxl2 sieht die gesetzlichen Vorgaben nicht als zuverlässige Quelle an. Mediatus (talk) 11:56, 14 May 2014 (UTC)

Hm - ich habe jetzt was bei der Adminanfrage geschrieben. Ich wüßte nicht, was da noch mehr zu sagen wäre. Mir fehlt bei Maxxl2 jede sinnvolle Grundlage für das Theater. Marcus Cyron (talk) 14:49, 14 May 2014 (UTC)

Batch job

Hallo Marcus, da du ein deutscher "file mover" auf Commons bist, wende ich mich mit einer Bitte zur Umbenennung von ca. 130 Dateien an dich. Wie du vielleicht auf Grund meiner letzten Verschiebung weißt, arbeite ich aktiv in dem Projekt „Die Gartenlaube“ auf Wikisource. Quasi alle Digitalisate von Seiten der Gartenlaube habe das Namensschema „File:Die Gartenlaube (xxxx) yyy.jpg“, wobei xxxx der Jahrgang und yyy die Seite. Also z. B. File:Die Gartenlaube (1879) 765.jpg. Ausgeschnittene Bilder von Seiten werden laut den Editionsrichtlinien mit einem "b" vor der Seitenzahl gekennzeichnet, also im obigen Fall File:Die Gartenlaube (1879) b 765.jpg.

Leider schlägt der Jahrgang 1873 aus der Reihe mit Bildern im Format „File:Die Gartenlaube (xxxx) pic yyy.JPG“, wie z. B. File:Die Gartenlaube (1873) pic 371.JPG. Wäre es möglich sie alle (130) in einem Rutsch in das Standard-Format „File:Die Gartenlaube (xxxx) b yyy.jpg“ umzubenennen? Damit würde eine Sonderbehandlung bei der systematischen Auswertung der Daten wegfallen. Gruß, --Arnd (talk) 09:10, 15 May 2014 (UTC)

Hi, also ich wüßte zumindest nicht, wie das gehen sollte. Vielleicht kann das ein Bot - aber sonst muß das nach meinem Wissensstand schon alles händisch gemacht werden. Marcus Cyron (talk) 10:49, 15 May 2014 (UTC)

Washing animals vs Animal washing

Why did you rename the cat when the discussion was not settled? Talk page in question. --Pitke (talk) 00:20, 16 May 2014 (UTC)

There was not a discussion. Only one oppose and I have to firure out, is it right or not. This is my Job. And the oppose is at the end nonsense, unclear. Who is washing who? Aninmals other animals? Humans Animals? Animals themself? There ist no cause, no real possibility to do it in different categories under these names. Marcus Cyron (talk) 06:03, 16 May 2014 (UTC)

In that sense the Animal washing -> Washing animals rename did nothing to improve the situation. With the same effort, new categories for People washing animals etc could have been created. --Pitke (talk) 01:43, 17 May 2014 (UTC)

Erpebilder

Hallo, ich versuch grad einige Erpebilder für verschiedene Natur- und Landschaftsschutzgebiete zu sortieren. Kannst du für File:Neuenhagener MühlenfließAlte Berliner Straße Hoppegarten 1.JPG die Lage präzisieren? Südlich oder nördlich der Alten Berliner Straße und wie weit davon weg? Das ist nämlich genau der Grenzbereich von 3 Schutzgebieten, ideal wäre deshalb eine Koordinatenangabe.

Hallo, hier kann ich es wirklich ganz genau sagen, war erst vor einigen Tagen erneut dort fotografieren. Das ist die Stelle, wo der Mühlenfließ die Alte Berliner gerade passiert hat (in Fließrichtung gesehen) und auf die B1 zufließt ([9]). Das ist sowohl das NSH Neuenhagener Mühlenfließ als auch das LSG Niederungsbebiet Neuenhagener Mühlenfließ und Vorfluter. Kommen wohl morgen noch mehr Bilder von dort von mir. Marcus Cyron (talk) 23:42, 31 May 2014 (UTC) PS: Genau - ich bin hier auch unterwegs, allerdings ist alles was du schon erledigt hast etwas, das ich nicht mehr machen muß ;)

das ist gut, du scheinst vor Ort zu sein. vielleicht kannst du mir ja dann mit ein paar anderen Bildern helfen, siehe [10]. das sind die "Berlin-Erpetal-by-Leila-Paul …" benannten Bilder in Category:Neuenhagener Mühlenfließ. Mit Karten und Satellitenbildern komm ich nicht wirklich weiter bei der Zuordnung. Ich leg dann erst Mal die noch fehlenden Kategorien fürs Umfeld an. Holger1959 (talk) 23:56, 31 May 2014 (UTC)

Ach so, [11] ist sehr nützlich zum schnellen nachgucken der Gebietsgrenzen. Für den Bereich hier musst du in der Karte rechts oben nur noch einen Haken bei den Landschaftsschutzgebieten machen, dann ist alles drin. Holger1959 (talk) 23:59, 31 May 2014 (UTC)

Ja, die nutze ich auch - leider ist die Hintergrundkarte nicht besonders gut. Ansonsten würde ich mich auf meine Kentnisse der Gegend nicht wirklich verlassen.

Hallo, ja gibt es in der Tat wirklich :). Unter "Einstellungen" (gaaanz oben das kleine Menü) gehst du zum Reiter "Helferlein", dort zum UNterpunkt "Kategoriehelferlein". Dort machst du ein Häkchen an "Cat-a-lot". Dann den Browser neu starten und ab dem Moment hast du unten rechts ein Kästchen mit "cat-a-lot". Dort drauf drücken, dann öffnet sich ein Bearbeitungsfenster. Dort kannst du einen neuen oder schon bestehenden Kategorienamen eingeben und alle oder ausgewählte Bilder mit einem Klick in diese kopieren (dann bleiben sie auch in der alten Kategorie) oder verschieben (dann sind die Bilder nur in der Neuen). Wenn man es ein, zwei mal gemacht hat ist es ganz simpel :). Marcus Cyron (talk) 13:09, 2 June 2014 (UTC)

Hello,

Sorry to disturb you, but I undid the rename on that file because I put the rename template by accident.

Deleting previous versions

Hi Marcus. Sorry to bother you here with a policy question but what is the situation with previous versions of an image file that will never be used again? A number of the maps I have created have interim versions (read versions where I cocked up the graphics :)), which serve no useful purpose. Is there a mechanism whereby I can request their deletion? Many thanks, Philg88 (talk) 07:52, 6 June 2014 (UTC)

Hi. Why not let it be as Documentaion? Wikimedia historians will be happy, when they will have this later :). And at the end - it we woul "delete" it, it only would vanished out of sight of the maiority - but would stay unseen at the server. So we not really win, if we delete unused versions. And there is another important thing: we give the images under a free licence. The images are used at the web and outsite. Even older versions. But if we delte, they could not refer to the place of origin. This would cause a lot of problems. Marcus Cyron (talk) 14:30, 6 June 2014 (UTC)

File:'Weisser Strand' am Flakensee in Woltersdorf Juni 2014 - 37.JPG

Hallo, bei der Durchsicht von Category:Weisser Strand (Flakensee) ist mir aufgefallen, dass die Bilder 35 bis 38 nicht ganz in die Reihe passen. Wo genau hast du die aufgenommen?

Und dann noch: Ist "Schwarzer Stubben/Weisser Strand" eine lokale Ortsbezeichnung oder bezieht sich das nur auf das Motiv einiger Bilder wie File:'Weisser Strand' am Flakensee in Woltersdorf Juni 2014 - 45.JPG? Frage weil das genau so in allen Bildern der Kategorie drinsteht, also auch bei denen wo nur Wasser und Boote oder nur Pflanzen draufsind. Holger1959 (talk) 14:49, 15 June 2014 (UTC)

Argh, danke fürs aufpassen. Das Gewässer ist schon das Richtige - aber es ist nicht der Weisse Strand. Die Bezeichnungen "Weisser Strand" und "Schwarzer Stubben" sind synonym. Allerdings ist Letztere heute nicht mehr in der Praxis sinnvoll, da der namensgebende "Schwarze Stubben" nicht mehr existiert. Erwähnen sollte man es dennoch, wie ich es tat. Marcus Cyron (talk) 15:50, 15 June 2014 (UTC)

Kannst du dir bitte die Kategoriebeschreibung angucken und eventuell einen Blick in Karten werfen? Das Schutzgebiet liegt nämlich vollständig in Berlin. Du hast aber zB. bei File:Wilhelmshagen-Woltersdorfer Dünenzug in Woltersdorf Mai 2014 - 3.JPG sehr verwirrend angegeben "in Woltersdorf" und die WLE-Kategorie für Brandenburg sowie eine Kategorie "in Schöneiche". Was also stimmt? Entweder warst du außerhalb des Schutzgebiets oder die Sachen sind dir beim Hochladen drucheinandergekommen.

Photo check

Hi Marcus, We met recently when I requested a filename move for this image, which you granted (among one or two others).
I just uploaded a photo of the "Blue Giant of the Orient", which is the largest sapphire in the world (which I see you've added to your ceramics gallery). The photo can be found in numerous places about the internet, esp on Jeweler's web pages and blogs, and so I believe it is in the public domain. (Do a Google for "blue giant sapphire".) I believe it is a trivial work , never copyrighted, and have used this license, as it is a photo of a world famous object that was once put up for public auction in a famous auction house (Christie's Auction House, in Geneva Switzerland). It would seem to me that if the photo is not designated by a copyright signature anywhere that it is not copyrighted. If there is no copyright designation to be found anywhere, no one could challenge the image for being copyrighted. Yes? Would you give the image a check, per licensing info, etc, because I want to use the photo in an article I am creating and hope to submit it for a DYK nomination. Any and all help and feedback here would be greatly appreciated. -- Gwillhickers (talk) 16:06, 20 June 2014 (UTC)

Too late, as I read this, the image was already deleted. But this was correct. "Trivial" or something like that is sadly not a part of the Copyright. So all 3D-images have their own copyright as long the creator is not dead for at least 70 years OR there is an other cause. So for example the photographer himself gave the image under a free license or it was made while working for an Institution that hold the rights and give the image free. So even trivial looking images always have their copyright. Marcus Cyron (talk) 18:52, 20 June 2014 (UTC)

You should work more accurate! Marcus Cyron (talk) 12:02, 24 June 2014 (UTC)

Hallo, habs verbessert, laut Template:Artwork#Vorlagenparameter soll nur entweder "artist" oder "author" verwendet werden, jeweils auf den Kunstgegenstand bezogen (Gemälde/Skulptur oder aber was eher Literarisches). Die Fotografenangabe bei dieser Vorlage erfolgt über "source". Wenn du dieses Feld leer lässt wird die Datei automatisch als "ohne Quelle" einsortiert siehe [13]. Falls du noch mehr deiner Bilder wie hier umgeändert hast, wärs sicher gut das nachzubessern, sonst bekommst du noch alle paar Wochen so eine Löschwarnung ;) Holger1959 (talk) 20:45, 27 June 2014 (UTC)

Ich benutze diese Vorlage eigentlich nicht. Entweder war das Jemand Anderes, oder ich habe sie irgendwo her kopiert. Generell sind unsere Bezeichnungen eh recht schwammig, es ist schon fast kein Wunder, daß es 3, 4 Bezeichnungen geben kann. Marcus Cyron (talk) 20:48, 27 June 2014 (UTC)

Move of File:Rops - 'Pornokrates' or 'La Dame au cochon' LACMA M.83.326.20.jpg

Hi, the rationale was harmonization, however this move loses the LACMA reference from the filename, putting it at odds with the 24,000 images in Images from LACMA uploaded by Fæ. Could you re-add the LACMA reference? Thanks --Fæ (talk) 19:02, 29 June 2014 (UTC)

Photo nominated for deletion

Thank you for your message. I am the admin of Cezar Ouatu's website but this probably does not matter when chosing the right licence to upload a photo. In this case, I would be grateful for any suggestion. Which licence should be better in order to safely upload and use the photo I am discussing about ? Of course, I am representing Cezar Ouatu and his website. Thank you !! --Daniela Bugea (talk) 17:51, 30 June 2014 (UTC)

Hi. At first you really need the rights on the images. These rights are normally by the photographer, not by the photographed person. When you have the rights, but you are not the photographer, please send an Email (see Commons:Permission). The Copyright is not an easy thing and we really have to be very careful with that. And een you must really think about what would you like to do. Because if you upload an image here under a free license, this image can be reused worldwide by anybody for free and everything (with ofcourse with borders as personal rights). So at the end - we need to know, that you are allowed to use the images and give them free. If you can do that and if you do that - it's fine and we can use the images here (the can be restored, they are not really deleted, onlyy hidden from the public).

Danke !

Hallo Marcus. Herzlichen Dank für deinen Barnstar. Zwar, die grosse Arbeit by subject, hab gesehen, hast du gemacht, wer weiss in wievielen Jahren...? Was ich nicht ertrage ist wenn immer dieselben Files überall categorisiert und zerstreut sind, dass man gar keine übersicht mehr hat. Das kommt oft weil die Griechischen Gewohnheiten und Verhältnisse nicht immer genug gekannt sind oder erkannt werden, was natürlich nicht jedermanns Sache ist, das ist klar. Natürlich für mich ist vieles irgendwie "einfacher", Dank meinem Archäologie Studium und dann auch Tätigkeiten, und besonders dass ich jahrelang in archäologischen Depots Karteien und Inventar Arbeiten machen musste von antiken Römischen, Samnitischen und Griechischen Objekte. Es freut mich dass alles das irgendwie zu Nutzen kommt für jedermann, wenn ich es in Commons anwende. Liebe Grüsse, --DenghiùComm (talk) 08:47, 1 July 2014 (UTC)

I've done the work again and again, but the mountain of things to do was not getting smaller. I've studied Archaeology too, but at this time I had no interest for Ceramics. This came much later. And I totally agree - only if we bring order in the System and the files, we can really use the images good. I've planned to do it by myself - but never found the time. At the end - even if you work on it every day, there will be enough to do even for me ;). Marcus Cyron (talk) 10:26, 1 July 2014 (UTC)

File Replace

Hallo Marcus, ich wollte ein (schlecht codiertes) Video mit einer besser codierten Version ersetzen. Fazit: Neue Version drüberladen über die entsprechende Funktion des Upload-Assistenten geht nicht, weil alt xxx.ogv, neu xxx.webm - da streikt der Uploader. Nun hab ich also ein vernünftig codiertes Video neu hochgeladen - aber für den Assistenten bin ich einfach zu doof, das residiert jetzt unter dem sprechenden Namen outfile.webm. Meine Bitte: Ist es für einen Admin möglich, File:Was_ist_ein_Vlog.ogv trotz anderer Endung mit File:Outfile.webm zu überschreiben (und dabei den Namen zu ändern: Outfile.webm -> Was ist ein Vlog.webm)? Ehrlich, bei der Arbeit mit commons, uploadassistent und videos scheint entweder Murphy auf meiner Schulter zu sitzen oder commons irgendwo bei 2003 verharrt zu sein. Für jede Hilfe dankbar, --Ordercrazy (talk) 07:59, 2 July 2014 (UTC)

Ich habe noch nie etwas mit Videos gemacht, habe somit nur wenig Ahnung. Aber wenn du eine Datei durch eine andere ersetzen möchtest, muß die schon exakt denselben Namen haben, samt Filedefinition. Warum kann das Video nicht unter webm bleiben? Was den Namen angeht, ist eine Verschiebung unproblematisch. Vermutlich kann man sogar die Endeung bei der Verschiebung ändern. Aber man müßte die alte Datei erst löschen. Marcus Cyron (talk) 09:44, 2 July 2014 (UTC)

Missverständnis. Das alte .ogv kann (inklusive der der renderings) gelöscht und durch das neue .webm ersetzt werden - die extension soll sich logischerweise nicht ändern. --Ordercrazy (talk) 10:01, 2 July 2014 (UTC)

Sowas soll man nicht machen weil dann der MIME type nichtmehr zusammenstimmt. Zudem scheint die Datei dann im Database report auf und wird vermutlich verschoben. --Steinsplitter (talk) 10:17, 2 July 2014 (UTC)

OK, ganz einfach bitte: Einfach nur File:Outfile.webm in File:Was ist ein Vlog.webm renamen.

Die halbkaputte Alt-Version (File:Was_ist_ein_Vlog.ogv) bleibt dann einfach wie sie ist und wird commons auch nicht wehtun. --Ordercrazy (talk) 10:24, 2 July 2014 (UTC)

OK, das scheint schon vollbracht zu sein :). Marcus Cyron (talk) 10:59, 2 July 2014 (UTC)

Mein Dank an Steinsplitter! - Ich werd mal versuchen, dem Videoteam hier ein wenig Feedback zu geben, ich bin da auf der Mailinglisten. Das alles soo kompliziert ist, hat mich nach bald zehn Jahren Commons-Erfahrung überrascht und frustriert. --Ordercrazy (talk) 05:58, 3 July 2014 (UTC)

List of WikiVideo projects

Hallo Marcus, ist es möglich meine Seite User:.js/WikiTV & WikiVideo projects in den öffentlichen Namensraum zu kopieren? Also schon vollständig, mit Versionsgeschichte, aber sie eben nicht zu verschieben? Weil ich aus verschiedenen Gründen eine eigene Version in meinem BNR behalten möchte, die Liste aber für offiziell hilfreich gesehen wird, auch von anderen. Als Lemma denke ich an List of WikiVideo projects oder List of WikiVideo & WikiTV projects worldwide - was meinst Du? LG --user.js (talk) 20:20, 23 July 2014 (UTC)

Oje, technische Fragen, da bin ich völlig überfordert. Frage mal @Raymond: , der hat bei solchen Themen zumeist Ahnung. Marcus Cyron (talk) 20:30, 23 July 2014 (UTC)

@.js: So wie du es möchtest, ist das nicht möglich. Jedenfalls nicht mit Hausmitteln. Du brauchst einen "Importeur" mit "Importupload"-Recht. Diesen gibt es hier aber nicht. Frag' mal einen Steward, z.B. @DerHexer: . Aber eine Warnung vorab: Wenn du das Duplikat im BNR weiter bearbeitest, ist es nur sehr schwer möglich, einzelne, neuere Versionen in den ANR zu transferieren. Raymond 21:14, 23 July 2014 (UTC)

Also Importrechte hat Marcus doch afaik? Und das die beiden Seiten sich danach völlig unterschiedlich entwickeln können ist genau das, was ich will. Also es sollen nach dem einmaligen Import keine weiteren Abgleiche erfolgen. Ich gehe ja davon aus, das die Community vielleicht ganz andere Ideen und Prioritäten für diese Liste hat als ich, deshalb eben meine eigene Version behalten. --user.js (talk) 21:29, 23 July 2014 (UTC)

Ja, aber mit denen kann man nur aus anderen Wikis Seiten importieren und keine innerhalb eines Wikis duplizieren. Und dafür braucht man nicht nur das import-Recht, das jeder Admin hier hat, sondern das importupload-Recht, das Benutzer der Benutzergruppe „Importeur“ oder halt Stewards global haben. Ob ich das hier aber verwenden darf, ist eine andere Frage. Grüße, —DerHexer (Talk) 22:07, 23 July 2014 (UTC)

Ich habe dennoch keine Ahnung von diesem Bereich - es ist besser, ich fange da nicht an Unsinn zu machen. Marcus Cyron (talk) 09:33, 24 July 2014 (UTC)

Identified plant.

I am new to moderating the files and am simply following the instruction pages for renaming files. They stated that the plants needed to be identified. An in-depth description will, most likely, not be possible since it is not feasible to pin down the EXACT variety name for most of the plants. If I can figure out how to move them to a new category, I can begin doing that, at least.

Sorry for my confusion.

Bark.I.Am.

It only needed to be the best possible identification. But everything is better than nothing or a false description. But I did not wanted to criticise you. I only would like to see you as the person who know it better than all the others before, that you do it in the best possible way. Marcus Cyron (talk) 18:00, 25 July 2014 (UTC)

Wiki Loves Monuments 2014 startet in Kürze

Hallo Marcus Cyron,

in Kürze ist es wieder soweit. Der nun schon traditionelle Fotowettbewerb Wiki Loves Monuments wird im September zum vierten Mal stattfinden. In ähnlicher Form hatte unlängst der Wettbewerb "Wiki Loves Earth" eine erfolgreiche Premiere. Zu allen bisherigen vier Wettbewerben haben seit 2011 gut 3000 unterschiedliche Teilnehmer (User) ihren Beitrag geleistet. Du warst dabei, und bist auch herzlich eingeladen, am bevorstehenden WLM-Wettbewerb wieder dabei zu sein.

Allein in Deutschland wurden in den letzten drei Jahren im Rahmen von WLM rund 100.000 Fotos zu den insgesamt ca. 850.000 Kulturdenkmalen bundesweit hochgeladen. Jährlich haben sich mehrere Hundert Wiki-Fotographen daran beteiligt. Auch im kommenden Denkmalmonat wird dies gewiss wieder der Fall sein. Der Tag des offenen Denkmals am 14. September bietet bundesweit vielfältige Möglichkeiten, Denkmale nicht nur von außen, sondern auch von innen zu fotografieren. Denkmallisten sind dabei ein wichtiger Orientierungspunkt und zugleich auch Ziel der Einbindung der Fotos. Auch in diesem Jahr sind wieder neue Denkmallisten hinzugekommen, die hilfreich bei der Planung von individuellen oder Gruppen-Fototouren sind und auf eine Bebilderung warten, wie z.B. zu Görlitz oder Zittau. Unter den Landeshauptstädten fehlt nur noch Stuttgart. Aber auch hier ist Licht in Sicht.

In der Mitte Deutschlands hat die Denkmallandschaft der thüringischen Landeshauptstadt Erfurt nun das Licht der Wikipedia-Welt entdeckt. Mehr als 50 Tabellen enthalten 3.700 Denkmale. Allein die wunderschön restaurierte Altstadt umfasst 1.800 Denkmale. Eine von WMDE geförderte WLM-Fototour nach Erfurt am Wochenende vom 29. – 31. August lädt herzlich ein, diese einzigartige Kulturlandschaft zu dokumentieren. Mehr Informationen findest Du auf der Projektseite.

Wir freuen uns auf Deine weiteren Beiträge für Wikimedia-Projekte.

Viel Spaß beim größten Fotowettbewerb der Wiki(m/p)edia wünscht Dir das Orga-Team.

Português: Paz e bem!
Qual o suposto direito autoral que teria sido desrespeitado?

Ó Eugênio, está começando mal a conversa. Essa palavrinha que você usou, "suposto", pressupõe, de sua parte, a certeza que esta capa de livro publicado no Brasil em 1956 está, por qualquer motivo, isenta de restrições à sua reprodução e modificação para qualquer fim, incluindo comercial. Mas engana-se. Aconselho que se informe — pode começar aqui. (Outra coisa: A palavra "Mondkonveno" está errada neste título; deveria ser "Mondkunveno".) -- Tuválkin ✉ 07:29, 1 September 2014 (UTC)

Tuválkin:

Português: Eu disse suposto pois não havia sido identificado especificamente qual a violação de DD.AA.

Eugenio Hansen, OFS (talk) 16:22, 1 September 2014‎ (UTC)

Eugênio, afinal não se informou (aqui), ou saberia que não é necessário especificar qual a violação em causa: Muito simplesmente, uma obra publicada no Brasil em 1956 não está ainda em domínio público em 2014. De acordo com a Lei 9610, de 1998 (cap.III art.º 41), temos de esperar 70 anos após a morte do autor; ora Johano B. Kao estava vivo ainda em 1980, portanto esta imagem tem restrições legais ao seu uso até 2050, pelo menos. Mesmo se a autoria do livro, ou da capa, for dada por anónima ou coletiva («kompilita de» não «verkita de»), a mesma lei (cap.III art.º 43) preconiza a desproteção da obra a partir de janeiro de 2027.

(Se o Eugênio discorda da ideologia subjacente a esta lei, e a outras similares pelo mundo fora, tal como eu e muitos colaboradores em projetos da Wikimédia também discordam, então participe de campanhas para sensibilizar a sociedade e as políticas a este respeito. Insistir que o Wikimedia Commons vá contra a lei é escusado e contra-producente.)

É seu o ónus de provar que esta capa está excepcionalmente, por qualquer motivo, isenta de restrições à sua reprodução e modificação para qualquer fim, incluindo comercial (a aqui repito-me). Talvez o detentor dos direitos (a IKUE, os Franciscanos, o Vaticano, a Arquidiocese do Rio?) tenha relicenciado esta obra como CC-by ou GDFL ou qualquer outra licença aceitável no Commons? Não sei, descubra você. -- Tuválkin ✉ 19:03, 1 September 2014 (UTC)

Tuválkin, grato agora entendi em que eu teria errado. Eugenio Hansen, OFS (talk) 22:27, 1 September 2014 (UTC)

Marcus, feel free to move this to COM:VP/C; context is here. -- Tuválkin ✉ 19:03, 1 September 2014 (UTC)

You put a speedy deletion tag on a image I added today, stating that it is a copyright violation but I do not understand. The photograph I uploaded was taken by me of a card that I own so how is it a copyright infringement? David Condrey (talk) 02:46, 2 September 2014 (UTC)

For me it made the clear impression, that this was not an original image. Ofcourse there is alwys the possibility, that I've made a mistake. If this was so, I'm sorry. Then I will restore the image. Marcus Cyron (talk) 13:15, 2 September 2014 (UTC)

Oh no, no sorry. You made an image of a copyrighted image. This is a clear copyvio. Or did you took the original image of the player? Marcus Cyron (talk) 13:17, 2 September 2014 (UTC)

I took the image of the card, photographs of copyrighten material don't fall under the same copyright restrictions, I dont think. David Condrey (talk) 00:26, 3 September 2014 (UTC)

I found some past discussion on a similar matter: Talk Archive - Fair use of baseball card images. Though it remains unclear what the final outcome of that was. David Condrey (talk) 00:35, 3 September 2014 (UTC)

Commons is not en:Wikipedia. Fair use images are here forbidden. Marcus Cyron (talk) 11:36, 3 September 2014 (UTC)
