Høyland kirke, glassmaleri

[edit]

Hei, hvorfor har du satt kategori «Army of Norway» som kategori på bildet av det ene glassmaleriet i Høyland kirke? Jeg sletter det ikke før jeg får vite om det var en feiltasting, eller om du har en grunn, som hittil er skjult for meg! File:Høyland kirke. Glassmaleri nord i koret.jpg Kjersti L.

Beklager! Dette er selvsagt en feil. Den oppstod da jeg masse-kategoriserte ved hjelp av cat-a-lot. Godt du følger med! Ja, takk for at du bidrar! Wolfmann (talk) 20:30, 13 September 2025 (UTC)Reply

Hi, thank you for your many interesting uploads! Gruß, --Polarlys (talk) 15:50, 11 January 2026 (UTC)Reply

Thank you very much, and right back at you!
It’s a nerdy hobby (and a form of procrastination from my actual job) to upload old photographs and book illustrations to Wikimedia, along with some of my own photographs from Norway. There ends up being a lot of military uniforms, especially German ones, but I am absolutely not a neo-Nazi and have no sympathies in that direction. I have a particular interest in material history and visual communication, and I am happy to contribute to public education. It’s wise to gather archival material from open archives in Wikimedia Commons so that the images can potentially be used in Wikipedia articles. I also spend a lot of time creating descriptive filenames, writing good explanations, and finding appropriate categories. It often becomes a bit easier to find archival material through Google when the files are hosted on Wikimedia rather than scattered across various national archives. The wall charts you recently uploaded are truly beautiful! All the best from Wolfmann (talk) 19:55, 11 January 2026 (UTC)Reply

"Enhanced" paintings

[edit]

Hi, Please do not upload "enhanced" paintings, specially when a better version is available from the museum website. We only want true colors paintings. Thanks, Yann (talk) 20:49, 15 February 2026 (UTC)Reply

Great photos!

[edit]

Hi! I have a small Instagram account about knitting and I'm making a short video on the red hats with a tassel that was worn in Norway during WWII. I came across your photos of the red hats from the museum and they seem very interesting. Just to be on the safe side, I wanted to ask If you are comfortable with usage of your photos on other content with giving you a credit in the description. Your other photos are also so interesting and opened a new world for me! Mrvsvr (talk) 07:37, 6 March 2026 (UTC)Reply

Yes, of course—feel free to use my photos in your knitting presentations. I appreciate that you ask beforehand; that’s very professional.
The red Norwegian cap has an interesting history. Similar caps were once common in traditional clothing worn by poorer farmers and fishermen in several European countries. Over time, in Norway it became a symbol of the simple and hardworking farmer, and it was also associated with farm guardians and nisser (household spirits), which is why it is often called a “nisse hat.” It was, of course, also a practical and warm garment for winter.
During the Second World War, these caps became a symbol of quiet protest against the German Nazi occupation of Norway and their Norwegian collaborators. Because of this, they were eventually banned by the pro-German Norwegian Nazi authorities. Wolfmann (talk) 08:25, 6 March 2026 (UTC)Reply
Thank you! That is very intersting. Mrvsvr (talk) 09:01, 6 March 2026 (UTC)Reply

I've been researching about the Bergenske Regiment and found your upload on Wikipedia and saw the date of 1818, I'm sorry if i disturb you but do you perhaps know if that regiment was used on the napoleonic wars? Thanks. Ludwig Von DinoFan (talk) 20:53, 29 April 2026 (UTC)Reply

Unfortunately, I have absolutely no historical knowledge about this. I have only taken photos and copied texts from museum exhibitions and similar sources. According to an article in the Norwegian online encyclopedia Store norske leksikon (https://snl.no/Norges_forsvar_fra_1800_til_1814), I can nevertheless pass on the following:
Norway, then in union with Denmark, was drawn into the Napoleonic Wars mainly after Britain attacked Copenhagen in 1807. This led to a British naval blockade, causing severe hardship in Norway, including famine and economic crisis. Norwegian forces fought both at sea against Britain and on land against Sweden (especially in 1808–1809), mainly defending their territory.
The Bergenhus Regiment (a local Norwegian unit) took part in coastal defense and regional fighting, helping protect western Norway—particularly around Bergen—from British attacks and maintaining control of the coastline during the conflict.
