File talk:COVID-19 in South Korea - Photo montage.jpg

 

Questioning whether files used in this montage are being properly attributed

This photo montage does not appear to be properly indicated for all photos used. The montage creator, Galdrad, credits with the following "(mostly from Choi Kwang-mo), CC-BY-SA 4.0 or Korean government images)"....and lists the files. However all original works are not credited. See the following list that I have compiled:

• own work by Choi Kwang-mo, File:2020-03-14 08.55.20 마스크를 구입하기 위해 구곡시장약국 앞에서 줄을 서서 기다리는 원주시민들.jpg,

A good example of a montage that references all individual photos used in the Summary Description is File:2019–20 coronavirus pandemic.png. And when being used from the main pandemic page on Wikipedia, that montage is being linked to the individual uploads on Wikimedia Commons, unlike this one above, created by Galdrad.

In addition, aesthetically, I think this montage of Galdrad's is overcrowded, with two many images, although I am pleased the South Korean pandemic's photos have been used in one.

I don't have enough experience in the licensing aspects of this and how credits were supposed to be given, so am asking for the help of an Administrator Explicit, who I know covers many South Korean licensed images, if they have time to review this. Or inviting any other Administrator or editor with experience to weigh in. Thank you.--Bonnielou2013 (トーク) 22:32, 24 April 2020 (UTC)

@Bonnielou2013: first of all, thank you for having imported some of the pictures I used to make this collage . I actually don't have the experience either about the degree of precision needed in order to properly credit all authors (should I use dedicated templates or something else ?). I put the list you made here on the page. I hope it is better now.

I just checked about the use of the collage on Wikipedia. Unlike the French Wikipedia, the English Wikipedia doesn't use the file at all but use the template multiple image with a 1/2/2 organization (perrow=1/2/2).

Thank you Galdrad for your response and adding the more detailed list above, per credits, to your file; although, as I said, I don't know if it was necessary. Yes, the English Wikipedia's pandemic montage used a multi-image template, which linked individual images to Commons. And, although I preferred that, it's quite possible the montage could have been properly used. Also, thank you for your contribution of this montage, I think it is nicely done, even if I had small criticisms. Thanks again.--Bonnielou2013 (トーク) 23:33, 24 April 2020 (UTC)

@Bonnielou2013: actually, I am thinking myself about making a simpler one too. Galdrad (Communiquer) 23:39, 24 April 2020 (UTC)
