Chapel(s) Royal

Sorry, I had advanced brain fade at around 2 am my time, couldn't think what to do with the top of the category or where to seek help or . . . . so Thanks. You want Chapel Royal to be unused because you think it better that the name (plural) matches that in Wikipedia? regards, Eddaido (talk) 05:32, 9 May 2013 (UTC)

Not a very good name: fr:Chapelle royale: attracting problems. --Foroa (talk) 08:02, 9 May 2013 (UTC)

Union Railway Depot

I am only here sporadically, so I'm not sure if I'm doing this right -- please bear with me if this isn't the place to leave a message.

On 27 March I uploaded an 1894 architectural drawing for the previous incarnation of Toronto's Union Station. I uploaded the image to wikimedia commons and added it to the "Original Union Station (Toronto)" page at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Original_Union_Station_%28Toronto%29

Today I went to the "Original Union Station (Toronto)" page, but the architectural drawing I'd uploaded was gone. All that was there was the alt text which appeared to be a link. I clicked on the link, but instead of taking me to the drawing it took me to an upload page. I assumed that meant I had messed up somehow when I uploaded the drawing, so I uploaded it again.

It was only after I was done that I discovered your earlier version of the drawing and the notice of the deletion.

You can probably understand why my version required a fair bit of digital clean-up if you see where it came from: http://archive.org/stream/canadianarchitec02onta#page/n358/mode/1up

Your image may well be cleaner, but I think my resolution is higher. I'll leave it with you to decide if you are going to delete my version of the drawing again. If you do, please ne sure to add your image to the "Original Union Station (Toronto)" page at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Original_Union_Station_%28Toronto%29

Thanks! Laurelrusswurm (talk) 09:47, 13 May 2013 (UTC)Laurelrusswurm

You are correct. I am not a graphics person, so they looked like duplicates to me, except yours had not been cleaned up (and everything else being equal, we usually keep the version of a drawing uploaded first, regardless of who uploaded it). I always do check to see if an image is being used before deleting it, but this time I either missed it (or deleted it shortly after you added it to en.wiki as there can be a lag time). Having looked at them again, your upload sufficiently different (other than just clean-up) that we should keep both. Thank you for bringing this to my attention. Sorry for any incovenience.

It all depends what you mean by resolution. The source given for the recent upload is actually of a of lower resolution and a lot of the detail missing from this inferior version is clearly shown on the previous one. Secondarywaltz (talk) 22:51, 13 May 2013 (UTC)

a heads-up

In 2011 you participated in Commons:Administrators/Requests/Jcb_(de-adminship 2). That discussion ended with User:Jcb losing his administrator privileges.

This note is to inform you that User:Odder proposed Jcb have unconconditional access to administrator privileges restored.

Commons:Administrators/Requests/Jcb (readmin) is scheduled to close on May 20th.
