OTRS

Hi again. Chanel is emailing OTRS and I think her ticket is #2013041310001871 . I don't think she is too upset that the images were deleted. Could you verify the ticket number for us? I had to archive all my emails that contained it because my isp only allows 10mb. Btw, I just heard that a friend's 18yo nephew and a friend of his are planning a trip to Aus next November. I think they are planning 6 mos with working visas but don't know what/where they are going to do there. Any help from a connection there will probably be appreciated if you will allow me to give them your email address.--Canoe1967 (talk) 21:23, 12 June 2013 (UTC)

Category:Avion

Hello!

You have put thousands of aircraft photos in the category if the lovely french town of "Avion". I guess that was not your intention. Regards, High Contrast (talk) 14:06, 13 June 2013 (UTC)

Thanks mate, I'll clean that category up in the next 24 hours. I've got 33,000 photos from that Flickr stream to upload, so I will remove categories for the rest of the uploads. If you want to help to categorise these avia photos, that would be awesome. Cheers, russavia (talk) 00:57, 14 June 2013 (UTC)

Filenames, descriptions and categories for images by Eva Rinaldi

Since you created Category:Files uploaded by Russavia (Eva Rinaldi) in February 2013 you've uploaded what seems to be over 9000 images from flickr by photographer Eva Rinaldi.

The uploads are appreciated, but...

You must improve the quality of your filenames, descriptions and categories.

As my history will attest, I just spent over an hour partially cleaning up a few dozen of the descriptions and categories. Files you added to Category:April 2012 in Sydney, for example, had descriptions so long that I was able to remove over 13,000 bytes with no loss of information, and I could have cut a lot more out than that.

If an image is worth uploading, its worth the time to give it a decent description. 72.244.204.123 04:32, 16 June 2013 (UTC)

Don't worry too much about this; they are in my cleanup category, and all files are being worked on by myself in this regard. It will simply take time, but I have cleaned up over 70,000 files in the last couple of months, so before long they will all be done. russavia (talk) 10:07, 16 June 2013 (UTC)

http://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Commons:Deletion_requests/File:Jimmy_Wales_by_Pricasso.jpg&diff=98295786&oldid=98292110 – I'm just letting your know that I won't allow Pricasso's work to disappear from the Internet. --Michaeldsuarez (talk) 11:50, 16 June 2013 (UTC)

People are welcome to use the files under the terms of the CC-BY-SA-3.0 licence that was granted to us by the artist, so can you please ensure that the requirements of the licence are met (which currently is not). russavia (talk) 11:57, 16 June 2013 (UTC)

What else is needed? --Michaeldsuarez (talk) 12:00, 16 June 2013 (UTC)

You need to attribute it to "Pricasso/Pricasso.com" and state it is licenced under CC-BY-SA-3.0 (and provide a link to the licence as part of that statement). That is best practice. russavia (talk) 12:10, 16 June 2013 (UTC)

Yeah, I just figured that out on my own:

• https://encyclopediadramatica.se/index.php?title=File:Jimmy_Wales_by_Pricasso.jpg&diff=543489&oldid=543285
• https://encyclopediadramatica.se/index.php?title=File:Jimmy_Wales_by_Pricasso_%28cropped%29.jpg&diff=543491&oldid=543362

I'll see if I could have my friend modify the video description on Vimeo. --Michaeldsuarez (talk) 12:14, 16 June 2013 (UTC)

You've only made the change to one image; if you would do the other licencing amendment that would be great. Thanks, russavia (talk) 13:45, 16 June 2013 (UTC)

I'm not sure what you're saying. I made the same changes to both pages. --Michaeldsuarez (talk) 14:12, 16 June 2013 (UTC)

Sorry, i had to bypass cache. Whilst I'm not condoning the use of the images in the way that you have, I do at least thank you for ensuring that the licencing is correct. russavia (talk) 14:17, 16 June 2013 (UTC)

I understand. You're welcome. --Michaeldsuarez (talk) 14:48, 16 June 2013 (UTC)

You may get more fame, thanks to Jayen466 baiting[1] on the de:Wikipedia:Kurier-talkpage. I got my share of "fame" already[2]. --Túrelio (talk) 10:54, 18 June 2013 (UTC)

(sarcastic) Yippee!! If German Wikipedia Kurier do decide to do a story; we'll see if they do the right thing and contact me directly for my input, or whether it will be an anti-Commons attack piece (as one would expect from English Wikipedia SignPost). Personally, I think the issue shouldn't be over-dramatised as much as people want to do it. russavia (talk) 11:07, 18 June 2013 (UTC)

RE: Email

I've sent you a reply. --Michaeldsuarez (talk) 16:43, 16 June 2013 (UTC)

the other files

hello. the cropped image and the "making of" video are not tagged. people coming to see the images from other places may not know those are up for deletion, and might not weigh in on the deletion discussion. i'm not inclined to tag them, because i am not familiar with the way things are done here. ps: give fae a snuggle for me. ;D Sockmachine (talk) 20:01, 16 June 2013 (UTC)

billboard on plane shots

this one is ok -Penyulap ☏ 10:11, 17 June 2013 (UTC)

Hi Russavia, though you might have considered it already by yourself, the advertisement on the billboard in the foreground of these images File:Air Berlin Airbus A330-200; D-ALPE@LAX 08.10.2011 620ec (6298272271).jpg, File:Swiss Airbus A340-313X; HB-JMM@LAX;08.10.2011 620fg (6298324777).jpg, File:Singapore Airlines Airbus A340-500; 9V-SGE@LAX;08.10.2011 620dq (6298252597).jpg, File:China Southern Airlines Boeing 777-21BER; B-2055@LAX;08.10.2011 620gs (6298924902).jpg isn't covered by FOP of U.S. and is above TOO. Cropping or blanking of the ad might be a solution. --Túrelio (talk) 07:56, 17 June 2013 (UTC)

Hey mate, thanks, I'll be looking at this entire stream in due course. Because of the number of files, f2c keeps crashing, so am having to upload it by set...arrgghh. But yeah, they do seem to have the issue you mention, so I will deal with those files; possibly simply by deleting them. :( russavia (talk) 07:59, 17 June 2013 (UTC)

Penyulap, I gotta give you props, that is quite hilarious!!! I won't delete that one on this basis alone!!! Cheers, russavia (talk) 10:24, 17 June 2013 (UTC)

Thankyou. Let me know what you want done with the others if there aren't pics of those models, if you have time. Penyulap ☏ 10:32, 17 June 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for the offer, but we photos of those aircraft, so modifying them isn't necessary. Plus, I think you could better use your time on other things on the project. Cheers, russavia (talk) 10:39, 17 June 2013 (UTC)

helicópteros

Hello, Russavia! You can help me? On the Wikimedia Commons there aren't enough photos (or in general are absent) helicopters of the Argentine Cicaré, Sorhge and AeroDreams companies. Whether you somewhere met sites where there is a photo of the above helicopters and which license allows loading on the Wikimedia Commons? I will be grateful for any help. Здравствуйте, Russavia! Можете помочь мне? На Викискладе мало фотографий (или вообще отсутствуют) вертолётов компаний Cicaré и AeroDreams. Не встречали ли вы где-нибудь сайты где есть фото вышеуказанных вертолётов и лицензия которых позволяет загрузку на Викисклад? Буду признателен за любую помощь. Лукас Фокс (talk) 15:55, 17 June 2013 (UTC)

Privet Lukas, thanks for the message. Leave it with me, and I will see what I can find online. It might be a few days though, hope that's ok. Cheers, russavia (talk) 15:59, 17 June 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for the help, Russavia! Лукас Фокс (talk) 16:14, 17 June 2013 (UTC)
