[edit] Image:Iron Age Italy.png
no thanks for deleting this image after giving me 7 days' warning, over Christmas. I was the author of this map. I uploaded it at a time when it was still good enough to say "I made it". I am not sure if I still keep a copy anywhere. Can you have it undeleted please? It is rather important to several Wikipedia articles, and I certainly won't spend another half day re-drawing it. --Dbachmann 09:30, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
- I didn't delete it, and I can't undelete it, because I'm not an admin on Commons. I tagged it in good faith, and didn't mean to "ambush" you. However, it's okay, because it can be undeleted. I've started a section at Commons:Undeletion_requests/Current_requests#Image:Iron_Age_Italy.png; you may wish to comment. Sorry for the trouble. Superm401 - Talk 15:07, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
[edit] PD-old and adminship
Hello. I have seen you adding {{PD-old-100}} while {{PD-old}} is not clear enough. Speaking of translated tags, if you can go through all images tagged PD-old, I will consider it easier to simply move the translated tags and change "70" to "100". In addition, {{PD-Art}} will assume PD-old if nothing else specified. That will require attentions as well.
While seeing your commitment to make license tags clearer, are you interested in becoming an administrator here? If yes, I will nominate you when you are ready. You have the choice to accept or decline my offer.--Jusjih 20:16, 21 January 2008 (UTC) (administering 11 Wiki sites)
- I have replied at Template_talk:PD-old#Additional_templates to explain why I consider PD-old-75 and PD-old-80 needed.--Jusjih 01:39, 23 January 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Quality Image Promotion

Congratulations! Image Image:Fruit_Stall_in_Barcelona_Market.jpg, which was nominated by you for Quality Image status, was reviewed and has now been promoted. If you would like to nominate another image, please do so at Quality images candidates. |
[edit] Image:Dprk pyongyang hotel rugen 05 s.jpg
Hello, Superm401. What's wrong with that image? I specified who created this work. Why do you think copyright status is unclear? At the bottom of source page you can see "доступно в соответствии с GNU Free Documentation License" message, which means "available according to GNU Free Documentation License". I uploaded several images from that site, and I don't want them to be deleted. --Dstary 12:29, 5 February 2008 (UTC)
[edit] ARS trademark
I saw you marked a couple of the ARS logos as trademarked... out of curiosity, where do you see that? I did an online search at www.uspto.gov before (and did another just now), and did not see any registered trademark. I'm just wondering if there is somewhere better I should be searching. Thanks :-) Carl Lindberg 05:19, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
- Fair enough on the common-law trademark. Although, the 50th anniversary was in 2003, so I don't think they really use that much anymore, and it may have lapsed. I think folks used it for the license template since it looks nicer than their usual logo ;-) I normally just use that template for registered trademarks though, since as you say, just about any logo is a common-law trademark, so I'm not sure that always needs specifying (doesn't hurt though). US government seals/logos are additionally protected by non-copyright and non-trademark law, so I tend to use the insignia template on those, unless they are registered trademarks too in which case I use both. Thanks for replying though. Carl Lindberg 05:37, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Image:Scylla Louvre CA1341.jpg
Hi! I'm bit surprised by your adding a PD-Art license to this picture: the object depicted here is not a two-dimensional work of art, so Bridgeman vs. Corel would not apply. Jastrow (Λέγετε) 17:53, 21 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Re: {{{category}}}
The {{{category}}} parameter is a just a convention used to make template auto-categorizing optional. Inputing an empty string prevents the template from adding a tagged page to any categories. This is very useful for template documentation. Like on COM:T. You may be familiar with {{tlrow}}, this makes use of it. You can also do it manually as I showed above. Take for example: {{{category|default categories}}}. If you assign anything (usually nothing) to category (i.e. {{template_name|category=}}) this will over ride any default categories the template normally assigns. Rocket000 03:20, 29 March 2008 (UTC)
- Hmm... not that I know of, but that's not a bad idea. I'm guess it would be fairly simple to do. The only issue I see it that the majority of templates that don't make use of it already are license tags, which means most of them are heavily used and having a bot edit them all in a short amount of time would send the job queue skyrocketing. I usually only add it when I'm cleaning out a category and there are pages that don't belong there (because a certain template was used on them as an example). Fortunately, nearly all our maintenance templates have it. As you can see on COM:T, there's only one category it's not suppose to be in (something that can't be solve with {{{category}}}).

[edit] Edit link in {{VIC-thumb}}
Thanks for adding that edit link there. I have been wanting to do that for a long time but did not know how to do it. Ideally, the edit link should only be there when status=nominated|supported|opposed|discussed|withdrawn though. -- Slaunger 10:04, 17 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Template help?
Hi Superm401, I would like to ask two favours. You seem to have quite some capabilities when it comes to templates, and I appreciate your recent help with improving some of the Valued image templates. I am stuck with two template problems relating to COM:VI, see here and here. Could you help? -- Slaunger 15:19, 17 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] re:Long khanh fallen
Story behind the photo at top of page: Photo by then PFC Paul Epley "The Agony of War." On August, 14, 1966 PFC Daryl Raymond Corfman, Company A, 4th Battalion, 503rd Infantry, 173rd Airborne Brigade (Separate) was killed by mortar fire during operation "Aurora Two". He was the 4th Battalion's first KIA as a result of direct enemy actions. His squad leader, Sgt. Daniel Eugene Spencer Jr., of Bend, Oregon, stares down at his fallen comrade. Spencer was later killed 11-12-1968, in action with the 1st Special Forces. SP4 Ruediger Richter (Columbus, Georgia), LZ control, watches the sky for the medical evacuation helicopter, his battle weary eyes to the heavens, as if to ask why? Photo taken Long Khanah province, Vietnam.[1]

Dear Superm401,
This is a standard message to the 18 different users who so far have been involved in testing Valued images candidates as either a nominator, reviewer or project editor. We are interested in hearing what you think about the project and what your positive and negative experiences have been. We would be grateful if you would voice your opinion here. Thank you,

[edit] Regarding Image:Alison Lapper Pregnant.jpg
Well, you were right on one point: I probably shouldn't have speedy kept it. Meanwhile, try not being so rude. I can tolerate that when people are right, but you're not: deletion requests do not have to take seven days. That is not and has never been a rule here, so please don't tell me never to remove deletion tags. Cheers. Lewis Collard! (hai thar, wut u doin) 03:29, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] PD-URAA
Re this edit: since when is 1928 < 1923?? Lupo 14:58, 24 May 2008 (UTC)
- Because I've read the book (and then some more about Mr. Spelterini). He showed his photos before in many presentations, using a projector. But the first publication (distribution of copies to the general public) was this 1928 bi-lingual German-French book, published in Switzerland. Lupo 16:05, 24 May 2008 (UTC)
- The book, BTW, makes no mention of his photos having appeared in newspapers before that, and in all my studies about him I have not found one shred of evidence that even just hinted at an earlier publication. Lupo 16:08, 24 May 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Another CC Template?
Hi, after a few talks on the theme on COM:VP, and after being convinced on advantages of "CC-by" towards "Attribution", I started to design a more intelligent user-editable CC-template (well, the developer+programming-work would be done by Rocket000).
I now learn that CC and Attribution ARE the same, such template therefore would not be of any use.
In case you're interested, I please invite you to talk on User talk:WeHaWoe/TestSite#Looks like bad luck for the project 8( for kind of brainstorming. Best, Wolfgang, WeHaWoe 09:16, 28 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Category:Milan Hodža
Hello, Milan Hodža never was the prime minister of the Slovak Republic because at that time Slovakia didn't exist as an independent country, but only as part of Czechoslovakia. Even though he was a Slovak politician. Have a nice day! --Pescan (talk) 16:49, 29 July 2008 (UTC)
[edit] PD-old-70
I notice that selecting "Public domain - author died more than 70 years ago" from the dropdown menu when uploading still adds {{PD-old}}, not {{PD-old-70}}. Is progress being made there? —Angr 18:01, 29 July 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Ike
I suggest moving Category:Hurricane Ike (2008) to "Category:Hurricane Ike". This one seems to be the notable one which will retire the name. Commons seems to have no media for any other Hurricane Ike; if we should in the future it can be disambiguated. Other thoughts? -- Infrogmation (talk) 02:45, 24 September 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Notice of namespace-rename "Image" -> "File"
Dear user, the MediaWiki developers recently announced that the "Image:" namespace is going to be renamed to "File:". "Image:" will remain an alias. The canonical namespace name wgCanonicalNamespace will change from "Image" to "File".
I noticed that you use wgCanonicalNamespace in either your monobook.js page or a JavaScript file in your userspace (check this list).
Please check and replace all occurrences of
wgCanonicalNamespace == "Image"
with
wgNamespaceNumber == 6
to ensure that your scripts keep working. Thanks! --Dschwen (talk) 18:41, 7 October 2008 (UTC)
