Impossible to generate thumbnails[edit]

So, it's impossible to generate thumbnails from this picture, mostly because the "filename cannot be found." -Mardus (talk) 01:51, 2 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The error message at

goes like this:

Interestingly, the thumbnail does render if called from wikitext, and looking at file URL, the differences are clear:

So, it turns out, that for some stupid reason, parentheses and commas are not properly converted to actual file names. So I'm going to rename it. -Mardus (talk) 02:08, 2 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

That is, request renaming it, which is done. -Mardus (talk) 02:29, 2 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

So, the culprits in this filename are parentheses (), commas "," and apostrophes '. -Mardus (talk) 02:10, 2 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Issue resolved. Generation of small images now appears to work. -Mardus (talk) 12:45, 2 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
