Translation help

Hello. I see you are a native speaker of Russian. Would you mind adding a Russian translation of the description of Image:Australian water dragon.jpg? --Boricuæddie 19:06, 17 November 2007 (UTC)

Taken care of. Maxim_(talk) 13:38, 18 November 2007 (UTC)

Thanks. --Boricuæddie 16:02, 18 November 2007 (UTC)

My RfA

Hi, Maximr. I deeply appreciate your support in my recent nomination. Finally, I've been appointed and I'm ready to go on working (this time with some extra buttons). If you need anything from me, don't hesitate to contact me. I'll be glad to help. Best regards and thank you again. --Ecemaml (talk to me/habla conmigo) 21:36, 16 December 2007 (UTC)

Congrats! Yes, I opposed you but I switched at the last minute on reflection: I don't think you'll do anything damaging. However, I hope you take my concerns on board, and be nice to all newcomers, especially if you disagree with them. Happy editingdeleting! Majorly (talk) 23:36, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

Поздравления!!! I see you're doing some good work already ;-) --Boricuæddie 00:07, 9 January 2008 (UTC)

Welcome to the club! A refresh of Commons:Licensing might be useful though, re Wikipedia only permissions [1]. Наслаждайтесь! --Para 14:59, 19 January 2008 (UTC)

Clearly the guy who tagged this was not all there at the time, yet you blindly go and delete the image anyway. If you'd actually read the description page, at all, you would have seen it tagged as user created public domain... what more do you want? If you're not prepared to check things before you delete them, don't delete them. – Gurch 06:38, 13 January 2008 (UTC)

Image:Honda VT 600 Shadow.jpg

I'm really beginning to get pissed off here. Again some sysop (you in this case) deleted one of the pictures i've uploaded without even leaving me a message. What's up with the zombie like admins here?!!?? Multichill 21:46, 23 January 2008 (UTC)

You also deleted Image:Bambitreffenkassa02.jpg and Image:DragonTeeth.jpg. Please undelete the 3 pictures. Multichill 21:56, 23 January 2008 (UTC)

Hello, Multichill. These images were not properly specifying a source; saying that it comes from nlwiki isn't enough, you should have the original source info there. I've restored the image, and hopefully you can fix them. User:Filbot tagged the images for deletion... you should have received a template, to your bot's talkpage. Maxim_(talk) 13:39, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

Image:Belzec staff.jpg

Hello! I noticed that you deleted the photograph showing members of Belzec staff, in spite of the valid license and given source. How come? Torvindus 21:50, 23 January 2008 (UTC)

That would be an error on my part, as I missed the permission. I'm sorry for this inconvenience; your image is now back. Maxim_(talk) 13:41, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

Robot-speed deletions

It is apparent from your log that you are indiscriminately deleting images previously in Category:Unknown using TW. I want to let you know that there is a huge impact if images are used on lots of Wikimedia projects. Please be careful next time, and to ensure that already-fixed files do not get deleted, please access the category manually and take it slow, or use Magnus's tool. Thanks, 哦，是吗？(O-person) 22:31, 23 January 2008 (GMT)

Has he actually deleted any wrongly? Take a look at my delete log - I clear out that category at robot speed but every image is manually checked before. I expect Maxim does the same. Majorly (talk) 00:04, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

I've deleted less than five images out of 1500 deletions wrongly. My talkpage above is the record of all the incorrect deletions. What I do when I'm clearing out a category is first inspect it throughly with Magnus's tool; I saw myself all the extra clicks by using Twinkle. If you're interested in this tool, it's located in my simple.js, as it doesn't seem to work in monobook for some reason... Maxim_(talk) 13:46, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

Hi Maxim, it would be helpful to check which pages used the files you delete, and remove the links ;-) I don't know if I only encountered and accidental example [3], or if there are more... Which doesn't mean I'm not thankful for the work you (and others) do: Thanks :) --Jonas kork 15:28, 26 January 2008 (UTC)

3gpacBbime MakcuM,

Je vois que tu as supprimé mon image de la terre à la fin du Permien dans "Equilibre ponctué".

Je suppose que c'est parce que j'ai mal rempli le formulaire d'enregistrement, car c'est bien moi qui l'ai créée, cette image...

Je recommence; si tu as quelque conseil à me donner, il est le bienvenu !

Cordialement, --Spiridon MANOLIU 14:25, 27 January 2008 (UTC)

Je peux t'aider si je sais le nom de l'image. Peux-tu me le donner comme ça: [[:Image:Foo.jpg]] ?

CnacuBa, DA : Image:08-Permian245.2.jpg</nowiki> et il y en a d'autres dans ce cas, par exemple Image:JarawaOnge.jpg</nowiki> ou Image:JeanHuniade.jpg</nowiki>

Pour toutes, j'avais pourtant mis: Source: own work Author: Spiridon Manoliu ou Spi.Ma. Permission (Reusing this image): PD-self Other versions: no one

STOP!

Please stop deleting for a short time and come to IRC. Thanks, ^{__ ABF __} ϑ 15:03, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

Sure, I'm in #wikimedia-commons now. Maxim_(talk) 15:08, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

Thank you for your support

Thank you for your kind expression of confidence and support in my recent – and successful – request for administrator access. I'll endeavour to live up to the community's expectations in me and would appreciate feedback on any mistakes that I may make when using my administrative tools. Best, Sandstein 06:49, 30 January 2008 (UTC)

Image:International_Mediator.JPG

Hello! You deleted the above-mentioned image, and the OTRS team is acquiring permission and license information. May we assume you have no issues with it being restored once proper sourcing and license information have been obtained? :) ~Kylu (u|t) 01:09, 9 February 2008 (UTC)

Not at all. I deleted some OTRS-pending images when they just stick around on forever... I don't have OTRS access so I'm not too sure of how the system works, but I'm completely fine with it being restored. :-) Maxim_(talk) 12:45, 9 February 2008 (UTC)

Image:Pasteur-Institute.jpg

You said Image description is satisfactory now... why? "You are most welcome to use this photo in Wikipedia (all languages)" is not the same as PD, nor is it an accetable license on Commons or on any Wikipedia (as per WMF policy). All images must be free to use by anyone, anywhere, for any purpose, modifications must be allowed, commercialuse must be allowed, etc. Please clarify -- Duesentrieb ⇌ 00:53, 10 February 2008 (UTC)

It was a simple oversight on my part. I've deleted the image. Maxim_(talk) 02:46, 10 February 2008 (UTC)

Image:DRAGON BALL Z.jpg

Why did was this image satisfactory according to you? It looks like a screenshot to me. -- Bryan (talk to me) 21:08, 16 February 2008 (UTC)

It was an oversight by me. In Bad Old Ones, it didn't look like a screenshot to me, so I "passed" it. On much closer inspection, it's definitely a copyvio. Thanks for spotting that. :-) Maxim_(talk) 21:17, 16 February 2008 (UTC)

Ok that's ok. I am looking through your contributions now and found some other problems:

• The reverts to Slarre in your deleted contribs were not correct, since pd-art does not apply to nordic countries, see Commons:When_to_use_the_PD-Art_tag#Nordic_countries
• Image:Older Porta Ticinese in Milan.jpg does not contain a license; even though you marked it satisfactory.
• Image:Logo lokomotiv.jpg is a logo and the self claim looks dubious to me
• Cúpula del crucero.jpg.jpg, Detalle de retablo.jpg.jpg were tagged with a NonCommercial license which is explicitly not allowed on Commons.
• Image:Slidte studenterhuer Gym og HF.jpg has no source.
• Image:Black Labrador Retriever portrait.jpg has no source.

That's what I spotted on the first look. There are more of such judgement errors in your contributions, and therefore I don't really feel quite comfortable giving you a bot flag yet. I think you need some more experience before performing mass deletions. Feel free to ask help :) -- Bryan (talk to me) 21:34, 16 February 2008 (UTC)

Image:Nissan_Laurel_C33.jpg

Well, thank you, Mr admin, for deleting this picture. I took it from the japanese WP and am quite sure that I added all neccessary information. Of course, I cannot verify that now, since you deleted it. --328cia 23:12, 16 February 2008 (UTC)

Can you re-add this image so I can see what the problem was, thanks. Chesdovi 23:14, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

You didn't add a license. I've restored it for you to fix it. Maxim_(talk) 23:46, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

Much obliged! Chesdovi 00:38, 20 February 2008 (UTC)

Image:Stamp album page.jpg

Just noticed that you had deleted Image:Stamp album page.jpg according to this log because the image was being used on en:Stamp album that is on my watchlist, and I believe the licence can be made quite proper, so if you restore it I can easily do that though I may not be able to source it. Cheers Ww2censor 04:13, 25 February 2008 (UTC)

OK, I've restored it for a few days. Maxim_(talk) 21:07, 25 February 2008 (UTC)

Thanks, I will see what I can do. Cheers Ww2censor 05:55, 2 March 2008 (UTC)

Image:Gyeongjudivs rus.png

Hi! This image was deleted by you using Twinkle. After uploading it was marked as unsourced, but right after that I added all required information on the description page. Could you restore this image? Dstary 02:27, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

My bad, sorry about the inconvenience. Maxim_(talk) 20:29, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

Commons:Twinkle ?

Hi, is this working on Wikimedia Commons, and if so, how do I use it, which subpage off of my userpage should I put it in? Thanks for your time, Cirt 08:29, 8 March 2008 (UTC) (Cirt on English Wikipedia)

I use a few adminscripts here. I was originally planning to bring more scripts and modify them for use at Commons, but that kinda broke off. What Twinkle script(s) do you want to use here? Maxim_(talk) 11:46, 8 March 2008 (UTC)

Stuff that would make it easier to nom things for deletion, warn vandals, I guess that's pretty much it for now. Is that possible? Cirt 18:41, 8 March 2008 (UTC)

Hmm, there isn't much of a vandal probem at Commons, for deletion I might be able to make a hack, although I'll need to figure out the templates. Also, TW doesn't seem to work in monobook for some reason, so that might prove a minor obstacle. Maxim_(talk) 20:33, 8 March 2008 (UTC)

Well, if you could figure it out for the deletion process, I'd really appreciate that. Cirt 03:59, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

So until you can get the deletion process thing figured out, what non-admin stuff is Commons:Twinkle good for on Commons? Cirt 06:56, 10 March 2008 (UTC)

Cirt, I've looked around and I'm really not the best person to do this kind of stuff. I suggest you ask the creator, User:AzaToth; he told me over IRC yesterday that this might involve quite a bit of modifying and I kinda suck at programming js. Maxim_(talk) 16:33, 13 March 2008 (UTC)

Okay, no prob, will do, thanks for your help. Cirt 10:42, 14 March 2008 (UTC)

Image:World-cannabis-laws.png

Hey. Can you please look at deleted revisions and confirm that your deletion of Image:World-cannabis-laws.png was appropriate? The image was widely used and has a lengthy talk page at en:Image talk:World-cannabis-laws.png. I have to ask because I have seen too many good images deleted for lacking a license/source, when in fact the image page had been vandalized. Thanks, Prolog 20:46, 19 March 2008 (UTC)

Sadly yes it was appropriate, there was absolutely no license info. Maxim_(talk) 21:54, 19 March 2008 (UTC)

Just after leaving you a message, I thought of checking the Wayback Machine. This showed that the image seemed to be appropriately under GFDL-self in February 2007, similarly as the same uploader's Image:European-cannabis-laws.png. What happened to the license information after that? There seems to be a French translation of the image here, by the way. Thanks again, Prolog 22:31, 19 March 2008 (UTC)

Blackwatch21

Stop deleting my userpage template, there is nothing wrong with it. That is called vandalizing a page.--Blackwatch21 22:50, 19 March 2008 (UTC)

Template-space is not the place for such templates. Do something like User:Blackwatch21/foo and put it there. Maxim_(talk) 23:25, 19 March 2008 (UTC)

There's no difference.--Blackwatch21 00:07, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

No, the template-space isn't used for things like that. Trust me. Raise the issue at Commons:Village pump if you don't believe me. Maxim_(talk) 00:51, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

Well, no one has wanted to use that template so far so you send me a message if someone does. BW21.--Blackwatch21 01:22, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

Excuse me, but can you explain me why the file Regioni del Gibuti was deleted? It was a copy and translation to italian of a commons file. Thanks, --mac 11:46, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

Can I please have the exact image name? I can't help you as I can't remember every image I delete. Maxim_(talk) 20:02, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

Here it is -> Image:Regioni del Gibuti.png . --mac 09:24, 21 March 2008 (UTC) p.s have nice estern hollydays

You didn't have a templated license tag. I don't know what motopark was doing in reverting you, but a revert by an experienced image tagger of the creator seems to not mark a file as disputed. I've done the simple fix for you, and I apologize for this erroneous deletion. Maxim_(talk) 11:07, 21 March 2008 (UTC)

Thaks a lot and good time to you. --mac 14:15, 21 March 2008 (UTC)

Modern.js

Hey Maxim! Modern.js does not work anymore. :( Could you please have a loock? Regards, abf /talk to me/ 12:03, 22 March 2008 (UTC)

There was an update made by AzaToth to reflect on some mediawiki changes so I've recopied the stuff from his updates and it looks fine now. I hope you don't mind, but I added a new tool, it's the traverse button. What it does is it almost duplicates the function of Bad Old Ones except it can't unlink and it has the option to skip or delete and you don't have to open any new windows. :-) Maxim_(talk) 13:13, 22 March 2008 (UTC)

Re: OklahomaSooners 2007Captains back.jpg

Maxim, you deleted the above image recently. I have been out of town for the past week. Is there any way I can ask that you temporarily restore the image that page/image so I can view it. Hopefully, seeing it will jog my memory on the picture and then I can investigate whether I do have permission info or can get it. If you can, please reply on my enwiki talk page. Thank you.Nmajdan 19:41, 29 March 2008 (UTC)

I would like to see the image, if at all possible. Are you saying that the image has/had the OTRS pending tag but never was approved?Nmajdan 01:19, 31 March 2008 (UTC)

Please review File:MaxvonBaden.jpg deletion

You deleted this image with the log 14:56, 6 April 2008 Maxim (Talk | contribs) deleted "Image:MaxvonBaden.jpeg" ‎ (Deleted because "In category Unknown as of 27 March 2008; no license/permission/source". using TW). Can you double-check the text surrounding the picture to determine if the photo is pre-1923? If there is no text, can you say for certain that the subject is no older than 55 years old? If so, then it predates 1923, as the subject was born on 10 July 1867. If it does pre-date 1923, can you restore it and put the appropriate (c) tag? If it does not or you are not sure, can you upload it to the English Wikipedia as a fair-use image for en:Prince Maximilian of Baden? Thanks. By the way, I asked] Dmcdevit to undelete the English version, but it's been deleted so long I'm not sure if he can. Obviously, if the image is in the public domain it should be here not there.
