Quality Image Promotion

Your image has been reviewed and promoted Congratulations! 2018-11-22 MV TUSTUMENA - IMO 6421086 18-09-07.jpg, which was produced by you, was reviewed and has now been promoted to Quality Image status. If you would like to nominate another image, please do so at Quality images candidates. We also invite you to take part in the categorization of recently promoted quality images. Comments Please check your image. Resolution too small, leaning out, sharpness must be better. --XRay 05:12, 23 November 2018 (UTC) Increased resolution from orginal. Please review again. --GRDN711 12:36, 23 November 2018 (UTC) It's still not sharp enough and it's leaning out too. Another question: Is this the full resolution now? --XRay 13:23, 23 November 2018 (UTC) Thank you for your comments. Increased resolution to maximum possible – 7639 pixels long side. To minimize distortion of 5-image stitch, applied lens correction and manual vertical upright correction using building edge on right. --GRDN711 04:21, 24 November 2018 (UTC)  Support It's only a weak support.

In the final (and current) round, you may vote for a maximum of three images. The image with the most votes will become the Picture of the Year 2018.

Wiki Loves Monuments in the United States – Back for 2019!

This user participated in Wiki Loves Monuments 2019.

Want to show your participation in Wiki Loves Monuments 2019? Add {{User Wiki Loves Monuments 2019}} to your userpage!

Hello! Last year you contributed to Wiki Loves Monuments 2018 in the United States. Thanks to people like you it was a great success, with over 1,900 people contributing over 10,000 photos of cultural and historic sites from all over the country. Hundreds of these photos now help illustrate Wikipedia articles, improving our open knowledge about United States history, culture, and heritage. If you haven't seen the winners yet, be sure to check them out here.

I'm pleased to say that we're back this year with Wiki Loves Monuments 2019 in the United States, and I'd like to welcome you to participate once again in the event. Check out our updated event page for more information. Just like last year, you'll be able to upload your photos of any registered historical site in the United States through the end of September (even if the photos were taken before this month).

If you've traveled and taken photos of monuments in non-US countries, you can see if those countries are also participating here.

Once again, thank you for participating in Wiki Loves Monuments 2018, and we hope to see you again in this year's event! If you'd like to respond to this message directly, please do so on on my talk page. ~Kevin Payravi (talk) 05:15, 1 September 2019 (UTC)

•  Comment I can't find pleonasm @Archaeodontosaurus: (I had to look the word up!!) as this penguin lives in other places apart from Antarctica. I am not aware that the Antarctic population differs from the others. The VI rules cover this exact issue of adding a location to a scope: "storm clouds over London" would not be acceptable unless there were buildings or other features visible which could distinguish it from, say, "storm clouds over Sydney" or "storm clouds over Tokyo"." Charles (talk) 08:00, 29 August 2019 (UTC)
• I thought you did not want to see wild and antartic together. I understand better, and you're right, but it's important to make a difference with an image of Zoo. So we have to keep in the scope: Wild or Antarctic. What annoys me the most is how to welcome newcomers. --Archaeodontosaurus (talk) 08:50, 29 August 2019 (UTC)

This user participated in Wiki Loves Monuments 2019.

Want to show your participation in Wiki Loves Monuments 2019? Add {{User Wiki Loves Monuments 2019}} to your userpage!

September 30th is the last day to upload photos for Wiki Loves Monuments! We're thrilled that the United States has almost reached 4,000 contributions so far this year. Of these images, ~370 (~9%) have already been used to help illustrate Wikipedia articles and pages on other wiki projects, which is fantastic.

If you've already made a photo contribution this year, thanks so much! If you have any last-minute photos of U.S. historical sites to upload and enter into the contest, today's the day to do it. Check out the United States event page for more information. Judging will take place throughout the month of October, after which the top-ten national finalists will be announced in early November.

If you've traveled and taken photos of monuments in non-US countries, you can see if those countries are also participating here.

As always, thank you for participating in Wiki Loves Monuments! If you'd like to respond to this message directly, please do so on on my talk page. ~Kevin Payravi (talk) 05:49, 30 September 2019 (UTC)

Autopatrol given

Hello. I just wanted to let you know that I have granted autopatrol rights to your account; the reason for this is that I believe you are sufficiently trustworthy and experienced to have your contributions automatically marked as "reviewed". This has no effect on your editing, it is simply intended to make it easier for users that are monitoring Recent changes or Recent uploads to find unproductive edits amidst the productive ones like yours. In addition, the Flickr upload feature and an increased number of batch-uploads in UploadWizard, uploading of freely licensed MP3 files and an increased limit for page renames per minute are now available to you.

Category:Interior of St Nicholas Church, Wallasey

It helps if you also move the contents of a category to the new name. It doesn't happen automatically. Thanks. Rodhullandemu (talk) 19:33, 30 November 2019 (UTC)

Actually the parent category is Category:St Nicholas's church, Wallasey, so you've also broken the naming existing convention. Rodhullandemu (talk) 19:35, 30 November 2019 (UTC)

Also, we don't do what Wikipedia does, because they don't take much care about getting things right. We do here. Rodhullandemu (talk) 19:36, 30 November 2019 (UTC)

Hello @Rodhullandemu:

Thank you for pointing out the necessity of moving all images to a new sub-category name. I should have remembered that...

The real issue I was trying to address was the spelling of the Commons parent category name (Category:St Nicholas's church, Wallasey) and all sub-category names. The church web site says “Welcome to St Nicholas Church, Wallasey”, as does Wikipedia and Google. I would propose that “St Nicholas's church, Wallasey “ be changed to “St Nicholas Church, Wallasey” in all Commons category and sub-categories names. No ‘s and all first letter caps indicating a name rather than a possession.

Your thoughts?

GRDN711 (talk) 02:17, 1 December 2019 (UTC)

• I agree that we should use the names of organisations and institutions that they themselves use, as long as we are consistent about it. I'm currently uploading a sequence of photos of the church interior, so when I've finished that I'll move the whole lot to Category:St Nicholas Church, Wallasey. Cheers.

Thank you for contributing to Wiki Loves Monuments 2019, and for sharing your pictures with the whole world! We would like to ask again a few minutes of your time. Thanks to the participation of people like you, the contest gathered more than 210K+ pictures of cultural heritage objects from more than 40 countries around the world.

You can find all your pictures in your upload log, and are of course very welcome to keep uploading images and help develop Wikimedia Commons, even though you will not be able to win more prizes (just yet). If you'd like to start editing relevant Wikipedia articles and share your knowledge with other people, please go to the Wikipedia Welcome page for more information, guidance, and help.

To make future contests even more successful than this year, we would like to invite you to share your experiences with us in a short survey. Please fill in this short survey, and help us learn what you liked and didn't like about Wiki Loves Monuments 2019.

Kind regards,

review

 Question GRDN711, does File:2018-07-14 019 Sifto Salt Mine, Goderich ON Canada.jpg show more of the facilities? -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 23:15, 5 July 2020 (UTC)

 Comment Ikan – this is a stitched panorama of 2 images that includes all of the mine buildings. I did make a further image in this sequence and have an alternate panorama (3 images) that shows more of the road on the right leading to the plant, as well as well as train shipping. It doesn't show more of the buildings but does give a wider view of the mine facility. Please review and comment. --GRDN711 (talk) 01:13, 6 July 2020 (UTC)

Hello Velvet: I don't have a specific need for a Spanjaardsgat image. There are other images in the same category but were taken at the wrong time of the year, or not as well done as yours. I just thought if you had one of just the Spanjaardsgat, Commons could always use a good image of this landmark. It would find a home in Wikipedia topics.

The key cateegory is the original "Særún (ship, 1978)" which links this ship to its unique IMO# and multiple other categories in Iceland. Hope this helps. --GRDN711 16:51, 31 August 2020 (UTC)  Support IMO OK now. Thank you. --XRay 07:08, 1 September 2020 (UTC)

If you would like to nominate another image, please do so at Quality images candidates. We also invite you to take part in the categorization of recently promoted quality images. Comments A lovely shot, but I see chromatic abberation and also soft detail. Do you still have the RAW file, and if so are you able to fix the CA and produce a sharpened image using the full resolution of the original RAW file? --Bobulous 20:10, 23 September 2020 (UTC) Also, this feels like it needs about three degrees rotation counter-clockwise. --Bobulous 20:12, 23 September 2020 (UTC) The image is distinctive taken in the low light of early spring but there is no RAW file. It was a JPG image taken on a Nikon D60 DX with a kit zoom lens in 2011. I also cropped the image to more closely focus on the ship. To address the issues you mention, I have loosened the crop; counter-rotated the image by 0.75 degrees (3 degrees is far too much) and did further minor tuning to address CAs and sharpness. Hopefully, this helps. --GRDN711 21:30, 23 September 2020 (UTC)  Support Yes, I think the looser crop improves the composition and reduces the demands on the level of detail on the boat. As for rotation, my apologies, I think I misled you wildly with my recommendation. I'm even thinking that maybe your original orientation was correct. --Bobulous 18:52, 25 September 2020 (UTC)

There is a dust spot in the sky (see image note), I would suggest to remove it.

Wiki Loves Monuments in the United States 2020 – Last day to enter!

This user participated in Wiki Loves Monuments 2020.

Want to show your participation in Wiki Loves Monuments 2020? Add {{User Wiki Loves Monuments 2020}} to your userpage!

Hi there! Kevin from Wiki Loves Monuments in the United States here. I know it's been a tough year for everyone, and I hope this message finds you well.

You are receiving this message as a participant in last year's Wiki Loves Monuments 2019 in the United States. First, a recap: We concluded with over 5,200 great photos of U.S. historical sites made possible by contributors like you. If you haven't yet seen, last year's U.S. winners are viewable here, and the international winners here (including multiple from the United States!).

Second, as you may have seen from the banner notices on Wikipedia, this year's Wiki Loves Monuments 2020 in the United States has been running through October instead of September in consideration of the pandemic and the hectic start of the fall season. Despite the challenges of the year, we're thrilled that the United States has surpassed 5,000 photo contributions so far.

October 31st is the last day to upload photos for the U.S. competition this year. If you've already contributed, thank you so much - and it's great to have you again this year! If you haven't yet contributed but are interested in participating again, you're invited to join us during these last couple days. Check out the United States event page for more information. Remember that you are welcome to upload and submit photos of historic sites that you've taken any time in the past, not just this month.

As always, thank you for participating in Wiki Loves Monuments! If you'd like to respond to this message directly, please do so on on my talk page. ~Kevin Payravi (talk) 07:20, 30 October 2020 (UTC)
