Hello, Deansfa!
Tip: Add categories to your files
Tip: Add categories to your files

Thanks a lot for contributing to the Wikimedia Commons! Here's a tip to make your uploads more useful: Why not add some categories to describe them? This will help more people to find and use them.

Here's how:

1) If you're using the UploadWizard, you can add categories to each file when you describe it. Just click "more options" for the file and add the categories which make sense:

2) You can also pick the file from your list of uploads, edit the file description page, and manually add the category code at the end of the page.

[[Category:Category name]]

For example, if you are uploading a diagram showing the orbits of comets, you add the following code:

[[Category:Astronomical diagrams]]
[[Category:Comets]]

This will make the diagram show up in the categories "Astronomical diagrams" and "Comets".

When picking categories, try to choose a specific category ("Astronomical diagrams") over a generic one ("Illustrations").

Thanks again for your uploads! More information about categorization can be found in Commons:Categories, and don't hesitate to leave a note on the help desk.

File:Rue des Capucins, Kapucijnenstraat, Brussels, Blondin et Cirage.jpg has been listed at Commons:Deletion requests so that the community can discuss whether it should be kept or not. We would appreciate it if you could go to voice your opinion about this at its entry.

If you created this file, please note that the fact that it has been proposed for deletion does not necessarily mean that we do not value your kind contribution. It simply means that one person believes that there is some specific problem with it, such as a copyright issue. Please see Commons:But it's my own work! for a guide on how to address these issues.

Please remember to respond to and – if appropriate – contradict the arguments supporting deletion. Arguments which focus on the nominator will not affect the result of the nomination. Thank you!

Picture of the Year voting round 1 open

[edit]

Dear Wikimedians,

Wikimedia Commons is happy to announce that the 2012 Picture of the Year competition is now open. We're interested in your opinion as to which images qualify to be the Picture of the Year for 2012. Voting is open to established Wikimedia users who meet the following criteria:

  1. Users must have an account, at any Wikimedia project, which was registered before Tue, 01 Jan 2013 00:00:00 +0000 [UTC].
  2. This user account must have more than 75 edits on any single Wikimedia project before Tue, 01 Jan 2013 00:00:00 +0000 [UTC]. Please check your account eligibility at the POTY 2012 Contest Eligibility tool.
  3. Users must vote with an account meeting the above requirements either on Commons or another SUL-related Wikimedia project (for other Wikimedia projects, the account must be attached to the user's Commons account through SUL).

Hundreds of images that have been rated Featured Pictures by the international Wikimedia Commons community in the past year are all entered in this competition. From professional animal and plant shots to breathtaking panoramas and skylines, restorations of historically relevant images, images portraying the world's best architecture, maps, emblems, diagrams created with the most modern technology, and impressive human portraits, Commons features pictures of all flavors.

For your convenience, we have sorted the images into topic categories. Two rounds of voting will be held: In the first round, you can vote for as many images as you like. The first round category winners and the top ten overall will then make it to the final. In the final round, when a limited number of images are left, you must decide on the one image that you want to become the Picture of the Year.

To see the candidate images just go to the POTY 2012 page on Wikimedia Commons

Wikimedia Commons celebrates our featured images of 2012 with this contest. Your votes decide the Picture of the Year, so remember to vote in the first round by January 30, 2013.

Thanks,
the Wikimedia Commons Picture of the Year committee

What is your source for the 1907-08 information? Beyond My Ken (talk) 05:33, 4 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
First, there's no way Bernstein & Bernstein would have build a building in the 1930s. The company was done by 1910. The source is this book (Apartment houses of the metropolis), published in 1908 and uploaded on Commons. On page 248 of this book, published in 1908, the building is featured and it says that it was build in 1907-08. Thanks for your pictures by the way. Have a good night and I hope we can have a more peaceful relationship in the future. --Deansfa (talk) 05:39, 4 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
OK, thanks for the source, it looks good to me. The source I used is the NYC GIS map, which is sometimes accurate, but sometimes merely indicates the first record that exists in the DOB files, so a specific source such as yours is certainly better. I'm certainly willing to start over, as I think it's better for all if we collaborate instead of working against each other. Best, Beyond My Ken (talk) 05:46, 4 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Ok, I just discovered how NYC GIS map and saw the record for 152 EAST 22 STREET. Be careful about the construction dates of prewar buildings on this website, because it relies on the PLUTO dataset which is not super accurate for build dates. The documentation about PLUTO dataset explains very clearly (page 30, paragraph "YEAR BUILT") that "Year Built is accurate for the decade but not necessarily for the specific year. Two outliers – 1910 & 1920. Structures built between 1800s and early 1900s usually have a Year Built date of either 1910 or 1920.". I would recommend to look at this dataset instead (LPC Individual Landmark and Historic District Building Data), the dates are super accurate. You can download it in CSV. Sorry for the length of the message. Thanks for your message and I'm looking forward to collaborate with each others. Best, --Deansfa (talk) 06:03, 4 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Your ability to sniff out journalists, newscasters, reporters is... it's insane. You've easily contributed double the number of identified people in my on photographs! SWinxy (talk) 07:28, 25 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @SWinxy: , thank you for your message! First, before answering, I really want to thank you warmly for the work you did on the Trump trial. Sure, not all of these reporters are notorious enough to have a WP article yet, but it's still very very valuable to have these free-to-use images of reporters. At first I was just trying casually to find a couple of the people (I knew maybe one, because I often watch the news), but I got totally obsessed by it and tried to find everyone.
I have to say though, it wasn't as hard as it seems: 90% of my findings are from YouTube: basically, when you type "trump trial" and a date ("May 14" for example) in the search bar, the returned result is composed almost exclusively of videos of cable-news or news network videos. Then, from the search result page, you can play quicly the videos by moving the cursor for each videos, and I try to go to the part where the newscaster is speaking live with the reporter at the courthouse (The name is always displayed). so it's how I operated.
I'm still not done yet, I hope I can find more. Let's see! Happy Memorial Day weekend! Deansfa (talk) 01:57, 27 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Ahhh! That makes sense! I'd been going to individual news outlets on YouTube and checking if they have videos of the trial around the same day. That was way less efficient. Happy post-memorial day, and thank you for your kind words! I took 1,200 photos and 2 videos from yesterday, and another 300 photos so far for today.
Fingers crossed I will be able to upload them tonight. SWinxy (talk) 14:48, 29 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
We got our work cut out for us. Lotta regular faces, but a lotta new ones, too. SWinxy (talk) 20:06, 29 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@SWinxy: Great, I'm looking forward to it. Take your time though, there's no rush! Uploading to Commons is not the most fun process, especially if you have 1000+ pictures. --Deansfa (talk) 21:45, 29 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Long Beach, New York by year

I'm glad you've been making Long Beach, New York-specific year categories. Have you considered other similar categories for other cities surrounding New York City? --DanTD (talk) 15:15, 12 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @DanTD: , thanks for the message! glad that you appreciate it. I wasn't planning at doing other cities, but now that you're mentioning it, I can definitely do others. What cities were you thinking about? I'm wondering if we can go by the most populous ones that don't have such categories. --Deansfa (talk) 18:08, 12 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
