Thanks for the discrete and nice work you have been doing in linking our FP to their nomination pages! -- Alvesgaspar (talk) 12:02, 8 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks! Nice to know it's appreciated, :) Only a few hundred more to go... Julia\talk 12:08, 8 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Recently I struggled, with no success, with the redirect of a commons nomination to an alternative version. I can't remember the picture but maybe you can give me some general advice. One of the problems was to find the right initials for Commons in the Assessments template: "comwiki-nom=" ? -- Alvesgaspar (talk) 12:35, 8 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • It is com-nom=example.jpg. However, this only works if "File:" is not included in the parameter. If you happen to be trying to link to a nomination page titled Image:example.jpg, it simply won't work (or at least, I've not got it to work yet!). Julia\talk 12:47, 8 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Julia, I am currently doing the layout of a Schoolbook for french in Austria and would like to use your picture from a metro sign there. Your name would be mentionned as the author of course.

Hi Julia o/,

First of all, thank you for writing, you are very kind lovely. So yeah, I've been working lately on getting good pictures, I have visited forests days away from civilization and I've been in altitudes over 5000 meters above the sea level. Taking pictures is one of my passions, throw like paragliding and climbing, I hope to travel to the remotest parts of the Amazon soon. For me, it is a great pleasure, a user like you, with so much level contributions and receive this compliment.

I hope you can apply for a scholarship for the next Wikimania and so I share ideas with you. --The Photographer (talk) 19:35, 14 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome back

[edit]

Welcome back, Julie!

After all, I realize that you have been around for some time! But I haven't noticed, maybe because you changed your username. Now for this bee shot. I'm afraid it doesn't have a chance at FPC, hélas! The main problem is the overall unsharpness, mainly due to the shallow dof. A different issue is the harsh sun lighting, causing all those ugly reflections and affecting the detail. Lighting is indeed the most difficult problem in macro, especially when our subjects and alive and nervous! One way around is to shoot the beasts in early morning (a terrible sin for me), use long exposure and, even better, focus brackteing. But that is for experts like Richard! -- Alvesgaspar (talk) 15:23, 9 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

It was very windy that day, which affected all of my attempts - obviously including this one! I thought the specular highlights might also be a problem - African sun is terrible for it. Thank you very much for sharing your opinion, and for the welcome! I appreciate it.  :) Abraços, Julia\talk 15:34, 9 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Julia, do you noticed that this file is still in a dispute at [1] and [2]; so it may be better editing it later. JKadavoor Jee 14:34, 26 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I had no idea that discussion was on-going about this image. Thanks for letting me know about it. I don't feel that it was incorrect to make the edit though. It's been protected so I can't remove my edit now. Julia\talk 21:12, 27 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Photo of Cape honey bee

[edit]

Hi Julia. I am writing a book on beekeeping in Australia and am including a chapter on bees that are found outside of Australia. I plan to include an entry on the Cape Honey Bee and would like to use your excellent photograph in my book. Can you let me know if you are OK with this. I will of course fully attribute the photograph to yourself.

Thanks in advance

Hi Robert, of course I'm happy for you to use my photo in the book. I've sent you an email with more details - please check your spam/junk folder in case it gets filtered. Julia\talk 21:57, 19 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Norbert! On the English Wikipedia we recently promoted one of your images and it is now a featured picture. Here's the pic: File:False turkey-tail - Golden curtain crust - Stereum ostrea - 02.jpg and here's the nomination Featured picture candidates/Stereum ostrea. Sasata is regarded as something of a fungi expert and he disagrees with the identification of this as Stereum ostrea. He thinks it is S. hirsutum because it grows in Europe and looks almost identical, while S. ostrea does not grow in Europe. What do you think about changing the identification of this image to S. hirsutum? Julia\talk 20:06, 25 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Julia, I'm not really a fungi expert, so if your expert says,the photo shows S. hirsutum, please feel free to change the file description and file name accordingly. Sorry for the wrong assignment. BR Norbert -- Norbert Nagel (talk) 21:14, 25 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Wiki Loves Monuments 2014 startet in Kürze

[edit]

Hallo Julia W,

in Kürze ist es wieder soweit. Der nun schon traditionelle Fotowettbewerb Wiki Loves Monuments wird im September zum vierten Mal stattfinden. In ähnlicher Form hatte unlängst der Wettbewerb "Wiki Loves Earth" eine erfolgreiche Premiere. Zu allen bisherigen vier Wettbewerben haben seit 2011 gut 3000 unterschiedliche Teilnehmer (User) ihren Beitrag geleistet. Du warst dabei, und bist auch herzlich eingeladen, am bevorstehenden WLM-Wettbewerb wieder dabei zu sein.

Allein in Deutschland wurden in den letzten drei Jahren im Rahmen von WLM rund 100.000 Fotos zu den insgesamt ca. 850.000 Kulturdenkmalen bundesweit hochgeladen. Jährlich haben sich mehrere Hundert Wiki-Fotographen daran beteiligt. Auch im kommenden Denkmalmonat wird dies gewiss wieder der Fall sein. Der Tag des offenen Denkmals am 14. September bietet bundesweit vielfältige Möglichkeiten, Denkmale nicht nur von außen, sondern auch von innen zu fotografieren. Denkmallisten sind dabei ein wichtiger Orientierungspunkt und zugleich auch Ziel der Einbindung der Fotos. Auch in diesem Jahr sind wieder neue Denkmallisten hinzugekommen, die hilfreich bei der Planung von individuellen oder Gruppen-Fototouren sind und auf eine Bebilderung warten, wie z.B. zu Görlitz oder Zittau. Unter den Landeshauptstädten fehlt nur noch Stuttgart. Aber auch hier ist Licht in Sicht.

In der Mitte Deutschlands hat die Denkmallandschaft der thüringischen Landeshauptstadt Erfurt nun das Licht der Wikipedia-Welt entdeckt. Mehr als 50 Tabellen enthalten 3.700 Denkmale. Allein die wunderschön restaurierte Altstadt umfasst 1.800 Denkmale. Eine von WMDE geförderte WLM-Fototour nach Erfurt am Wochenende vom 29. – 31. August lädt herzlich ein, diese einzigartige Kulturlandschaft zu dokumentieren. Mehr Informationen findest Du auf der Projektseite.

Wir freuen uns auf Deine weiteren Beiträge für Wikimedia-Projekte.

Viel Spaß beim größten Fotowettbewerb der Wiki(m/p)edia wünscht Dir das Orga-Team.

( Bernd Gross, 16. August 2014)

File:Twintowers of Deutsche Bank Headquarter in Frankfurt a.M..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!

Hallo Julia W,

nun ist es wieder soweit. Vom 1. bis zum 30. September findet zum fünften Mal der internationale Wettbewerb Wiki Loves Monuments statt. Im Mittelpunkt steht bekanntlich das Fotografieren von Kulturdenkmalen. Du hast an einem der letzten Fotowettbewerbe teilgenommen und wir freuen uns auf weitere Bildbeiträge von Dir.

Viele interessante Motive, nicht nur Burgen und Schlösser, sondern auch Fachwerkhäuser, Brücken und Brunnen, technische und Industriedenkmale und vieles mehr gibt es noch zu fotografieren, damit sie in der Wikipedia dokumentiert werden können. Nützliche Tipps findest du auf unserer WLM-Projektseite. Du kannst gerne individuell Fototouren durchführen oder aber Dich auch Gruppentouren anschließen. Besonders freuen wir uns auf Fotos, die Lücken in den Denkmallisten der Wikipedia ausfüllen.

Darüber hinaus kannst Du auch an der Arbeit der Jury teilnehmen, die Mitte Oktober die Fotos bewerten und die Gewinner ermitteln wird. Bis zum 15. August kannst du hier Deine Bewerbung einreichen.

Viel Erfolg und Spaß beim größten Fotowettbewerb der Wiki(m/p)edia in den bevorstehenden Wettbewerbswochen wünscht Dir das Orga-Team. Wir freuen uns auf Deine Fotos.

Hello Julia,

I would like to use the picture of John Phillip Sousa as he would be a distant cousin to me through my great grandmother's side of the family. I was wondering if it would be alright to use the photo in my genealogy and to have it colorized?

Thank You so very much.

Important message for file movers

[edit]

A community discussion has been closed where the consensus was to grant all file movers the suppressredirect user right. This will allow file movers to not leave behind a redirect when moving files and instead automatically have the original file name deleted. Policy never requires you to suppress the redirect, suppression of redirects is entirely optional.

Possible acceptable uses of this ability:

  • To move recently uploaded files with an obvious error in the file name where that error would not be a reasonable redirect. For example: moving "Sheep in a tree.jpg" to "Squirrel in a tree.jpg" when the image does in fact depict a squirrel.
  • To perform file name swaps.
  • When the original file name contains vandalism. (File renaming criterion #5)

Please note, this ability should be used only in certain circumstances and only if you are absolutely sure that it is not going to break the display of the file on any project. Redirects should never be suppressed if the file is in use on any project. When in doubt, leave a redirect. If you forget to suppress the redirect in case of file name vandalism or you are not fully certain if the original file name is actually vandalism, leave a redirect and tag the redirect for speedy deletion per G2.

The malicious or reckless breaking of file links via the suppressredirect user right is considered an abuse of the file mover right and is grounds for immediate revocation of that right. This message serves as both a notice that you have this right and as an official warning. Questions regarding this right should be directed to administrators. --Majora (talk) 21:36, 7 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
