Image:Ensisheim Meteorite Fall.jpg[edit]

Hello,

I saw your message on de:Wikipedia_Diskussion:Bildrechte#Reporoduktion_eines_Bildes_von_1513.

An alternative way of filling the description page might be :

Public domain The two-dimensional work of art depicted in this image is in the public domain worldwide due to the date of death of its author, or due to its date of publication. Thus, this reproduction of the work is also in the public domain. (This applies to reproductions created in the United States, Germany, and many other countries, see Bridgeman Art Library v. Corel Corp.).

(the template used above is template:PD-Art)

But Birkhäuser Verlag is in Switzerland, not in Germany. I have no idea, whether the "Bridgeman v. Corel" doctrine applies to Switzerland.

Remember also that : « Manche deutschen Juristen vertreten die Ansicht, dass bei Gemäldereproduktionen sehr wohl ein geschütztes Lichtbild entsteht. Dies ist jedoch eine Mindermeinung. » de:Wikipedia:Bildrechte.

How about writing to m:Juriwiki mailing list and ask for advice? --Teofilo 13:27, 18 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your message. I just posted a message to the Juriwiki mailing list. Let's see what they find. --Vesta 13:49, 18 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Image:Iridescent cloud Utah.jpg[edit]

Hello RJHall, I am quite sure that Image:Iridescent cloud Utah.jpg shows no irridescent cloud, but rather a Parhelion (sundog). Compare the image to the sundogs seen here or here, and with a photo from an iridescent cloud like this. Maybe you want to change the name accordingly.

Yes I pretty much knew that. Feel free to modify the description as you see fit. Thanks. — RJHall 18:59, 2 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]


NGC40,jpg[edit]

Sorry about the missing information about licensing. I took that picture from the english wikipedia and added the same information from that picture. So probably you can delete it in the english wikipedia, because it is now in the common. best regards. --Bgvr 18:31, 3 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Bgvr. Thanks for adding the source information. Unfortunately, the image is not NASA-PD. The licensing policy of the source site clearly states that the image is only free for "for non-printed and non-commercial use", and with these restrictions, it is not suitable for commons, see Commons:Licensing. --Vesta 07:57, 4 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Image:Lune Venus.jpg[edit]

Hallo Vesta!

No, I'm not the author of the photo. I uploaded that image from French Wikipedia, where it was released under GFDL license (obviously incorrect, but I was a "newbie" in those days and I didn't realise the mistake, because I knew the licenses not so much). I forgot that image and it remained that way, with the incorrect license.

Now I've seen you've changed the GFDL license to the '''{{attribution}}''' one. Thanks for your quick action!! Greetings from Spain, Mortadelo2005 10:57, 5 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Images from SALT[edit]

Hello Vesta. Yes, the free license is granted on the polish site, where it is written that All photos placed on this site can be published without limitations (in polish: Wszystkie zdjęcia zamieszczone na tej stronie można publikować bez ograniczeń.) Should I use another copyright tag or just add above sentence to the descriptions? Regards --Polarianin 14:59, 5 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Polarianin. Many thanks for this information. Please add the above sentence (preferably both in Polish and the translation) to the images, and remove the tag I added. It's good to know that the images can stay. I have seen that you also uploaded images of the dome and the mirror of SALT, maybe you can add the information there, too. Many thanks! --Vesta 15:05, 5 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
You're welcome ;) I'm adding the lacking info now. --Polarianin 15:28, 5 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Pfff... =/[edit]

Ridiculous: [1].

Your "contributions" in the Category: Galaxies is ridiculous, ok? We work in Portuguese Wikipedia for upload this files, you destroy we work (Because unsource? This NASA images no have copyright ¬¬)... thank you very much. -- Marcelo Silva 22:28, 6 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Marcelo, I appreciate your uploads, but please note that each and every image has to have detailed source information. The author and source (link to the page where you got the image from) must be given, so that others can verify the copyright status. Just adding the PD-NASA without any other information will not allow anyone to check the copyright status, or get any other information about the picture. There will be no problem if you add detailed information like in this image.
Some of the images are clearly against the rules of the Wikimedia Commons. Take, for example Image:NGC 514.jpg. The source site apparently is http://www.noao.edu/outreach/aop/observers/n514.html. This is not a NASA web site, this is not a NASA image, and there is a policy statement on this web site saying that the "JPEG images found on these pages can be copied for non-printed and non-commercial use." [2] So printing and commercial use is not allowed. Please note that Commons:Licensing says that "Wikimedia Commons only accepts free content, that is, images and other media files that can be used by anyone, for any purpose [...] Commons also does not accept noncommercial-only content." So this picture is not allowed on the Commons.
Image:NGC 772.jpg is from http://www.astrooptik.com/Bildergalerie/PolluxGallery/NGC772.htm. This is not a NASA site, and there is no statement whatsoever that this image is public domain. Image:NGC 3992.jpg is from http://www.gralak.com/Astro/Astro.html (follow the link "2001/02/08 (Chris Lasley's M109 Processed by me)" on this site). There is a very clear copyright statement on this page. I can add more examples like these, but I think this is enough to see that there is indeed a problem.
Massive disputes about sources and copyrights have already forced some Wikimedia projects to close down. I don't want to see this with Wikimedia commons, and adding detailed source information is the only way to avoid such problems. I hope you agree. --Vesta 23:48, 6 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
And about my "ridiculous" edit on Image:NGC 3982.jpg: As no other source site was given, I supposed the source is http://sci.esa.int/science-e/www/object/index.cfm?fobjectid=33854. Note that there is a copyright statement directly below the image, and the legal disclaimer on this page says: "The contents of the ESA Science & Technology website are intended for the personal and non-commercial use of its users. ESA grants permission to users to visit the site, and to download and copy information, images, documents and materials from the website for users' personal non-commercial use. ESA does not grant the right to resell or redistribute any information, documents, images or material from its website or to compile or create derivative works from material on its website." --Vesta 08:08, 7 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Humm... ok ok delete =(. Ohh fair use... -- Marcelo Silva 14:44, 8 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Marcelo, note that fair uste ist not allowed at the Commons, see Commons:Licensing#Material under the fair use clause is not allowed on the Commons. If it is allowed in the Portugese Wikipedia (which would, as far as I can see, require that "fair use" is allowed both in Portugal, Brazil, Anogola, Mozambique, and other countries) you can upload images under the fair use clause the the portugese Wikipedia. --Vesta 10:06, 9 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I know, fair use is not allowed on the commons. Wikimedia Foundation is american foundation and is under United States law. Brazil law? KKKKKKKK... -- Marcelo Silva 20:24, 14 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

And can you please respond to my talk page (✉)? I will know faster. Winiar✉ 16:30, 18 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I have just recieved an e-mail: 

Michał,

Some of our images are public domain, but the majority are 
not. The issue we have is that if our images are placed in 
Wikipedia without the full credit line and the reference 
to our Copyright Policy, then users may try and use the 
image without finding out more about our usage policy - And 
the last time we were contracted by someone from Wikipedia, 
they said you all couldn't include any reference to our 
Copyright policy - so we appear to be in a "catch 22" 
situation.  We certainly don't mind having our images 
included, as long as the full credit line is included and 
as Wikipedia users don't think they copy our images from 
your web site to use.....without first checking our 
Conditions of Use policy.

Re: |Beautiful meteor in hungary]][edit]

Hello Vesta, in truth, I wasn't too sure what it was, and I was deciding between meteor and contrail ;) But now that you say it, I think it does kind of look like a contrail, so the description and the name of the image has to be changed. Thanks in advance! Typhoonchaser 16:28, 5 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Typhoonchaser, as not only the description, but also the file name (which can not be changed, as far as I know) appears to be incorrect, I think it would be best if you upload the image again under a new name and afterwards put a speedy deletion request on Image:Beautiful meteor in hungary.jpg, like {{badname|Image:NewName.jpg}} . --Vesta 16:46, 5 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Hello Vesta, I've only just managed to do the badname thing as I have been busy the past few days. Thanks for all your help! Typhoonchaser 14:48, 12 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Many thanks to you, Typhoonchaser, for correcting this. And good luck on your next chase for typhoons. :-) --Vesta 15:27, 12 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Re:Image:Two Kreutz Sungrazers imaged by SOHO.jpg[edit]

Oooops!!. You are right. I didn't read the small letters, I just assumed NASA=PD. I am sorry, I have searched for others with that problem, and I have found this one with the same problem. I just copied the tag from the english wikipedia. Then I think the symbol Image:PD-icon.svg in that NASA tag should be changed, it leads to confusion. (Now I have seen your warning there) ---- Fernando Estel · (Talk: here- es- en) 08:05, 22 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, Fernando. You are right, the other image has the same problem. The problem with SOHO is that it is not solely a NASA spacecraft, but it is a common project of NASA, ESA and the US military, so the NSAS-PD tag does not apply here... :-( --Vesta 08:23, 22 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry for being so repeatitive. Look at this image. It seems SOHO images are permited if permission for its use is asked before, and acknowlegement is given to its author ({{Attribution}} tag). What do you think about this? ---- Fernando Estel · (Talk: here- es- en) 15:24, 22 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Please note that Image:Comet SOHO-6.jpg comes from http://ares.nrl.navy.mil/sungrazer/ (i.e., a U.S. Navy Web Site), and this permission ist not valid for the SOHO web sites (http://sohowww.nascom.nasa.gov/ or http://soho.esac.esa.int/). --Vesta 15:38, 22 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Image Tagging[edit]

Hi, photos, that you marked came from english Wikipedia. They are currently deleted, so I have no way to check the source. I've uploaded one new image (Image:Sylvia.jpg) and found second on this page. I sent the request and wait for response. Yarl Talk • PL 13:12, 22 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Yarl, thank you for your efforts, but there is again a problem with Image:Sylvia.jpg. This is a ESO image, not a NASA image. The original source for this image is http://www.eso.org/public/outreach/press-rel/pr-2005/pr-21-05.html, and the is a clear copyright statement on this site and on the image there. The fact that it was featured on NASA's APOD does not mean that it is now in PD - please note the warning in the NASA-PD tag: "Images featured on the Astronomy Picture of the Day (APOD) web site may be copyrighted", and read the APOD image policy here. --Vesta 13:18, 22 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Regarding Image:Cruithne.jpg, I see no hint on the page you liked that the image is PD. In the contrary, there is a copyright statement on the bottom of this page. Hopefully, the image author will give you the permission to use it here for our projects. That would be great. --Vesta 13:24, 22 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
What a nice surprise. Today I receive positive response from Cruithne's photo author. Now it's GFDL. Yarl Talk • PL 16:58, 28 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Perfect. Thank you very much for getting the permission for this image! --Vesta 20:56, 28 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Keplers_House_Rectfish.jpg[edit]

Hi

I saw you image http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Keplers_House_Rectfish.jpg, and as the author of RectFish I must point out that something must have gone wrong during your remapping to rectilinear.

Either you cropped the image prior to remapping or here is what I really think went wrong: The Peleng lens used is known to be somewhat decentered relative to the camera mount and RectFish takes this into account. This normally works without a glitch for horizontal images, since the camera will nearly always be held in a top up orientation. However, for a vertical shot the camera could be held in either of two orientations, and I never really realized this issue since I am using another fish eye lens myself. So, I'd suggest that you try to rotate the original 180% prior to remapping (or alternatively make a camera setting having the reversed decentering of the default Peleng lens) and make sure that the image was not cropped prior to remapping. If you do need to crop, do so after remapping.

Regards Kjeld Olesen / AcaPixus

Hello Kjeld,
the image was, of course, only cropped after remapping with RectFish. I am not sure why you think that "something must have gone wrong", because I think the result is indeed very good. Compare the result from rectfish with this image, which has been taken with a recitlinear wide angle lens (of course, the perspective was corrected with PTgui): As you can see, the images are nearly identical. So I think RectFish has done a great job!
--Vesta (talk) 10:40, 2 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks - however the entire remapped image is curved. I just tested remapping the original (which I cropped out of your two images in one) and found that making a camera + lens combo with the Canon EOS 300D + Peleng lens and setting the vertical offset to +2.7% rather than -2.7% gives much straighter lines - except of cause that I realized by doing that that the original Peleng image on display is a crop, but it is clear to me that this is the cause. So, just try to add an additional gear combo, which you may call "reversed" or something and and set the vertical offset to +2.7% (+27 ‰)

Hmmm...strange. The camera was not rotated by 180° (which would not make sense) but by 90°. So it would be more logical to set transfer the vertical offset of 2,7% to horzontal offset, instead of changing the sign of the vertical offset - or did I get something wrong here? Furtermore, don't get confused by the fact that not all walls of this building are in right angles - that is actually the case, it's a very old house and it indeed has some walls that are askew... --Vesta (talk) 11:06, 2 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hi again - well, if the image height is larger than width, then RectFish figures out that the camera must have been rotated, and automatically uses the vertical offset as horizontal offset. But it does not know whether it was rotate +90° or -90° - and the difference between those are 180° which explains simply changing the sign of the offset.

In the stitched image the left wall is as straight as the edge of the image, but in the rectiliearized image is is slightly curved. I bet that this curvature will disappear if you simply change the sign of the offset.

OK, I undeerstand. I'll give it a try and show you the results afterwards. But even with that slightly cuved line, I am impressed how easy and fast RectFish can remap these image - well done! ;^) --Vesta (talk) 11:48, 2 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

File:Comet SOHO-6.jpg[edit]

I had been deleting other SOHO images, and this went with the lot. Their copyright is not really Public Domain, it's more in line with requesting attribution. However, the point If you use the data or some product based on the data, we ask that you tell us that you are using it, send us a copy of the resulting research report or paper from [3] potentially conflicts with commons policies (you must not require being notified of usage). I have restored it, but further clarification would be desirable. Platonides (talk) 13:08, 19 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for taking part in the Wiki Loves Monuments participants' survey!

Dear Vesta~commonswiki,

Thank you for taking part in the Wiki Loves Monuments participants' survey. Your answers will help us improve the organization of future photo contests!

In case you haven't filled in the questionnaire yet, you can still do so during the next 7 days.

And by the way: the winning pictures of this year's international contest have been announced. Enjoy!

Kind regards,

the Wiki Loves Monuments team

Your account will be renamed[edit]

Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Vesta. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Vesta~commonswiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours,
Keegan Peterzell
Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation

Renamed[edit]

This account has been renamed as part of single-user login finalisation. If you own this account you can log in using your previous username and password for more information. If you do not like this account's new name, you can choose your own using this form after logging in: Special:GlobalRenameRequest. -- Keegan (WMF) (talk)
