Duplicates[edit]

Hello KTo288!

Please prefer tagging those files for duplicates that are used less than the other one. Other reasons like better name or some file was uploaded earlier than another one should also kept in mind, but these things play a secondary role. I refer to this case. All in all, thanks for helping and contributing! Greets, High Contrast (talk) 22:14, 20 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

No problem, the other file had the better description and fuller file information, but I understand why it would be easier to do it the other way round.KTo288 (talk) 22:17, 20 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for your support. --High Contrast (talk) 22:42, 20 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]


Macy's Thanksgiving day parade article changing to images[edit]

How come you put Macy's Thanksgiving day parade images only. I made a article of it you think Wikimedia Commons is not like wikipedia. Happy Thanksgiving 75.141.100.115 00:37, 27 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hi 75.141.100.115, since IP's are often shared, I'll anwser you here (why not consider creating a User account). Commons was initially created as a resource for the myriad of wiki projects as a common repository of images and other media files which can then be used locally. The term "article" when used here is really a misnomer, a hold over from sharing the same wiki software, a better name and it is called that for an article here is gallery, a page of the best images in a category, a photo-essay if you must, in which the images tell the story with a minimum of an introduction and picture captions. If a reader desires more detail is needed then links in the introduction and side bar can satisfy this. What Commons isn't, is a place to reproduce exactly articles from other wikis. This can all be found at Commons:Project scope. Have a look through the Welcome infobox for help and how to use Commons, and thank you have a happy thanks giving yourself.KTo288 (talk) 11:42, 27 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Isn't this category a bit too much? Dividing aerobatic teams by airshows - OK, seems logical. But to me a division like in the air/on the ground seems illogical (that's what an aerobatic team is about - flying) and harmful to the comfort of a typical Commons' user who will need to browse through too many categories in order to find a picture that suits his or her needs. Wolf (talk) 12:00, 28 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Wolf, thanks for the great pictures. I wanted to seperate the ones on the ground from the ones in the air. For me when sorting pictures for use, I like to have similar pictures next to each other so that they can be quickly compared and I wanted to get the ones closest in sequence together. however I suppose I could have done it with a gallery rather then a category (or ordered them by number in the category), however I understand not everyone will work in the same way as me. Let ne finish diffusing the categories, and if you still think the same way, I'll revert the sub category and use numbers to seperate out the ones on the ground.KTo288 (talk) 12:10, 28 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, take your time. And you know, there's still the issue of consistency. Dozens of aerobatic teams, dozens of airshows... A lot of work, don't you think? Wolf (talk) 12:16, 28 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I know, but I like looking at airplanes.KTo288 (talk) 12:17, 28 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Comment[edit]

I made a reply to your response here I hope you can make a reply. Cheers, --Leoboudv (talk) 01:14, 10 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Of course, you're right, my bad for just looking at the picture and no further. KTo288 (talk) 09:55, 10 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

It's okay. You can delete this image. I made another one because this name is wrong. It's not Tainqi but Tianqi. So go ahead, delete Tainqi Mausoleum.jpg. And sorry if I made anny kind of problems. TheColonel 20:09, 21 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

What concerned me wasn't the name of the image, which I didn't notice, but that the image is a derivative work. You've made no secret of the fact that you made a scan of the image form Gisela Gottschalk's book Chinas große Kaiser, in this case your scan is a derivative work of someone elses work, since you had no creative input in the creation of the image you cannot claim to be author. Now sometimes images we find in books may have become Public Domain and therefore can be hosted on Commons by virtue of age, usually 70 years after the death of the author, however even if this is the case this has to be reflected in the description.KTo288 (talk) 19:28, 21 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hi KTo288,

you created this category. It is not clear to me, what the purpose is, what one has to do with or about the files in the cat. Would be nice if you could clarify that. Cheers --Cwbm (commons) (talk) 10:41, 24 December 2009 (UTC)

Actually I created the cat from a red link created by another user, so the following is my rationale for its creation which may differ from that of that user. Because of copyright many of the files we have are old using recording technology which modern listeners used to digital sounds may find not to their liking. Some editors will therefore attempt to remove what they see as recording and reproduction errors, however this can lead to the loss of information in the file and a loss of historical integrity and authenticity. In such cases, and given we can have multiple files and versions of a file, we can have two versions of the file the one cleaned up for use, and the original, blemishes and all, as a historical record and as a basis for restoration by other editors. (A analogy would be if we had a print in which the photographic plate had been scratched, if an editor fixes the scratch digitally, would you want to delete the original file? SeeCategory:Asahel Wheeler Hubbard for a visual example of what I mean) This category is for the unrestored version of the audio file. KTo288 (talk) 10:56, 24 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, a description in the category would be good. Cheers --Cwbm (commons) (talk) 11:10, 24 December 2009 (UTC)

No problem.KTo288 (talk) 11:12, 24 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Transfered based on trusting claim of uploader at en:wiki however a google search found this page, which seems to assert copyrighted ownership. This was one of the first files I transfered from en:wiki, and I must admit to not being as diligent with investigating ownership and authorship claims as I would insist upon now.KTo288 (talk) 19:58, 25 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]


Category discussion notification Category:Battle of Anson's Bay has been listed at Commons:Categories for discussion so that the community can discuss ways in which it should be changed. We would appreciate it if you could go to voice your opinion about this at its entry.

If you created this category, please note that the fact that it has been proposed for discussion 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. If the category is up for deletion because it has been superseded, consider the notion that although the category may be deleted, your hard work (which we all greatly appreciate) lives on in the new category.
In all cases, please do not take the category discussion personally. It is never intended as such. Thank you!

--Spellcast (talk) 18:58, 3 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

By the way, would you happen to know how the Mandarin and Cantonese accent pronounces the word 穿鼻? In pinyin, it's "Chuanbi", but the British originally spelt it "Chuenpee". I'm just curious if the original spelling was based on a certain dialect. Spellcast (talk) 00:33, 12 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry I hadn't meant to ignore you, I thought I'd made a reply much earlier, but it seems to have gone amiss. personally in Hong Kong Cantonese it would sound like Tsuen Bay, two fairly distinct words with a hard B.KTo288 (talk) 09:55, 1 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

An offering for our new administrator from your comrades...

KTo288, congratulations! You now have administrator rights on Commons. Please take a moment to read the Commons:Administrators page and watchlist related pages (in particular Commons:Administrators' noticeboard and Commons:Deletion requests), before launching yourself into page deletions, page protections, account blockings or modifications of protected pages. The majority of the actions of administrators can be reversed by the other admins, except for history merges which must thus be treated with particular care.

Please feel free to join us on IRC: #wikimedia-commons on irc.freenode.net. There is also a channel for Commons admins, which may be useful for more sensitive topics, or coordination among administrators:#wikimedia-commons-admin.

You may find Commons:Guide to adminship to be useful reading.

Please also check or add your entry to the List of administrators and the related lists by language and date it references.

檔案已刪除,請用得當的檔案名(File:Longyanlin 1.JPGFile:Longyanlin 2.JPG 等等) 從新上傳多一次。KTo288 (talk) 10:53, 13 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
不,是因為傳圖途中「跳掉」,然後重新上傳,就變成另一張不是我要傳的圖了,所以出現同一名稱會有兩張圖。—Yiken (talk) 07:54, 16 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
當發生這種事情,只要錯傳的圖是自己的,不要太複雜,你只要用同一個名傳你要傳的圖在錯的圖之上就得了。KTo288 (talk) 10:08, 16 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

用另一張圖要蓋過File:Wuling (Taiwan).JPG,因為蓋不過,所以想刪除它。—Yiken (talk) 15:44, 9 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

為確保作者的版權每一個檔案必須說明它的來源(Source)和許可(Permission)。你的上傳是自己拍的,來源可以填上(Own)自己,許可可以自選 (看一看Commons:許可協議)。因為每日有太多上傳檔案這警告是自動發出的。上傳時這兩行沒有填好的上傳器就會停止上傳繼續。上傳時可以用中文板的Commons:Upload/zh-hantFile:Wuling (Taiwan).JPG以刪除了。--KTo288 (talk) 22:48, 9 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hi KTo288,

In case you've missed it, since yesterday the patrolling functinality has been enabled for all edits, no longer just for page creations. This enables us to track, for example, anonymous edits on Commons. I'd like to invite you to check out the Anonymous edits list and maybe patrol part of a day. See also the updated Commons:Patrol.
If you have any questions please leave message on the CVU talkpage, my talkpage or on IRC. -- Krinkletalk 23:38, 15 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

We need your help at the Wikiproject medicine[edit]

Hello, Sorry for spaming your talk page, but this is very important. On the behalf of the Wikiproject medicine at the en.wikipedia, I am inviting you to be a part of the discussion going on the project's talk page about Patient images, The discussion started after I obtained a permission to more than 23000 dermatology related images, and about 1500 radiology images. As some editors of the Wikiproject medicine have some concerns regarding the policy of using patient images on wikipedia, and regarding patient consents. Also they believe that common's policy is not so clear regarding the issue. And since you are the experts please join us at this very important discussion -- MaenK.A.Talk 14:23, 20 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

MiG-25RU, not MiG-25PU in Technical museum Togliatti-0796.JPG[edit]

Hi,

this image: (MiG-25PU in Technical museum Togliatti-0796.JPG) actually depicts a MiG-25RU (as the Cyrillic description states), not a PU. I suggest moving the image name to MiG-25RU in Technical museum Togliatti-0796.JPG.

Why did you create the same topic within itself(Apollo Program A7L Suit)?[edit]

It all seems really redundant and kind of confusing. Craigboy (talk) 21:21, 15 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry if I've made it confusing for you, though I can assure you it is not redundant re the official guideline as found at Galleries vs. categories. Basically categories are used to store and organise files, and galleries to display them. Galleries, on topics with multiple categories in which not all the files are immediately accessible, can also function as a navigation tool. Although for categories with a small number of files a gallery may seem identical a gallery allows you to present the order of files e.g. a chronolgy, to add captions and to break into sections, a photo article if you lke. If you search on Commons enough times, you will find that on many topics you will find both galleries and categories.KTo288 (talk) 14:03, 19 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

1916 Studebaker[edit]

OK KTo. I'll visit the museum (where it is located in Surrey, Canada) soon and take a higher quality photo of the Studebaker with my modern Canon camera when I have the time. Then once I upload the better picture, I will request a speedy delete on this photo which is an embarrassement to me. Also, I had forgotten that Commons had no 1916 Studebakers....but that was almost 2 years ago now and I was hoping the situation had improved.

Sympathies[edit]

My sympathies. 82.11.39.166 22:25, 8 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

It was the only thing that stopped me from going on a counter troll hunt (okay a trolling spree) of my own and tacking the following "advice" on talk pages :)
Of Princes and courtiers- a warning to would be courtiers, for their end is often a bloody one. To those who on hearing their prince exclaim "will no one rid me of this troublsome thing?" and rush to please their prince, know this for it is the want of princes to protect their own reputations and once the knifeman's work is done will decry "who could think that I should want this?" and "I have been ill served". For seeing a restive population, who by law and tradition are denied vengence against their prince, the prince will most often grant their vengence against loyal minions.

Thank you for cleaning this up -- I notice that you deleted it, then un-deleted, then deleted again. My apologies if I didn't make it clear enough in the {{Speedy}} that there was a DR running -- IIRC, I did link it in the speedy reason to delete, but I probably should have put it first, maybe in bold. . . . .

I have made a further comment here but honestly don't see how Commons can keep it. It seems like an obvious case to me--an image of a copyrighted product. It would be like a picture that focuses exclusively on a Coke or Pepsi product with no chance of De Minimis. The rights belong to the company that makes it, I would think, so it should be a derivative photo. Thank You, --Leoboudv (talk) 21:51, 23 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, I've made a comment there too.KTo288 (talk) 21:54, 23 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hello KTo!

This deletion debate runs out of the rudder as all users in this discussion think that arguments like "no reason for delete" or "keep this one as long as there is no better one" or "valued photo we need because there is no other one" would count in deletion debates on Commons. Perhaps you can leave a comment there or close this DR. Regards, High Contrast (talk) 21:33, 25 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I had a go at sseing if I could find the image elsewhere to no avail, and was unable to add anything meaningful before the DR was closed.KTo288 (talk) 10:52, 27 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

This 6 month old DR[edit]

Dear Admin KTo288,

Has the time not arrived to close this 6 month old DR as delete? Its a picture of yet another modern stadium (ie. modern architecture) where the architect cannot possibly be deceased for more than 70 years. Its been up here since November and is used on only 1 wiki site but this use is illegal since South Africa has no COM:FOP for modern art as you know. 6 months is much too long for this DR to drag on, I think. Please see what Admin Lupo said here in another similar case that you were indirectly involved in. But you are not involved here. Thank You, --Leoboudv (talk) 08:55, 27 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

What is the hurry?[edit]

Deletion requests should be open for discussion during seven days. Yet you just closed Commons:Deletion requests/File:Loftus Versfeld - Pretoria.jpg after only five days. And it was not a copyrighted work. Please concentrate your energy on DR's that have been open since 2009 instead. See Category:Deletion requests. /Pieter Kuiper (talk) 12:53, 29 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for the advice, those old ones will need looking into. As I've just said on the village pump, as you know this is not the only DR on South African stadia some dating from January, and in all those what I consider to be the broad consensus of informed opinion is that there is no FOP in South Africa, as I've just mentioned on the Village pump, I'd love to be wrong over these and have these reverted and if anyone can convince me that there is in fact FOP in South Africa, or enough evidence to cast doubt on the FOP advice we have here, I'll restore them myself. I've actually dragged my feet as much as I honestly could on these (see section above) even though these images are widely used and the World Cup is coming up.--KTo288 (talk) 13:06, 29 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Re:[edit]

Thank you for your insight regarding CSD and deletion requests. I suppose I should leave commons housekeeping up to commons users and vice versa. Regarding the blank image, that is something I will consider if I see the image pop up again. petiatil »User 15:04, 31 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Apologies[edit]

Apologies, because of circumstances beyond my control, I've had to take an extended wiki break,and have not been able to edit at anything like my normal level. Things should be normalising now, though i may be distracted.

What am I missing?[edit]

Greetings:

On June 6, you added {{no permission since|month=June|day=6|year=2010}} to File:TheMercantile.jpg. It was subsequently deleted for no permission. User:Nyttend, whom I've worked with on WP:EN for a long time, asked me to take a look at it and I undeleted it.

I don't completely understand all the subtleties of our permission and license templates, but it looks to me like this was OK:

  • Source = Own
  • Author = Cinster (the uploader)

What am I missing here? Regards,     Jim . . . . Jameslwoodward (talk to me) 11:00, 19 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Been a while and cannot remember the exact circumstances I vaguely remember finding the image at a third site, with dates that indicated that it's use there predated its upload here. It was not a clear copyvio, could very well be that the author uploaded it to both sites, or allowed its use elsewhere before uploading here, hence it was tagged with npd rather then as an outright copyvio.KTo288 (talk) 11:23, 4 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
