Mirroring as Rotation

Is it possible to add mirroring as a rotation method? Pictures taken from slides (e. g.) can be “wrong side”, but how to rotate that? An example is: <https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Street_Scene_Aden_Yemen.jpg> – I think I reported that before, but nothing changed. The arabic scripts on the picture show, that the whole scenery is wrong sided, the picture has to be rotated, not in grades from a midpoint but from a thought vertical center axis. Alabay (talk) 08:29, 19 October 2012 (UTC)

This is something that has to be implemented in Rotatebot before. This talk is just about the User Interface. Luxo, a volunteer and the operator of Rotatebot is quite busy so if no one else will code it or it is implemented in MediaWiki, I doubt it will be done in the near future. Regards -- Rillke^(q?) 16:24, 19 October 2012 (UTC)

If you like to know how to request features for MediaWiki (the server software that generates all these pages), I can show you how. IMHO the Wikimedia Foundation who gets Million Dollars of donations every year is not investing enough into the development of MediaWiki. -- Rillke^(q?) 16:28, 19 October 2012 (UTC)

Mirroring is still not implemented...--MOSZCZ (talk) 12:28, 01 Aug 2013 (UTC)

Mirroring would really be a useful feature, has there been any progress on that issue? --Charlik (talk) 11:24, 29 September 2014 (UTC)

Yes please to mirroring - it is needed.

Perfect. Took six years but finally the picture ist corrected. Alabay (talk) 17:19, 1 January 2019 (UTC)

@Jeff G.: At the moment I put all images in c:Category:Images to be flopped back. Can you mirror this images too? Thanks. -- sk (talk) 09:35, 2 January 2019 (UTC)

@Stefan Kühn: Thanks, I am working on them and putting the results in Category:Photos flopped by User:Jeff G.. As I do, are you sure about File:Fotothek df n-10 0000525.jpg, as the watermark on the bottom left is legibile?   — Jeff G. ツ _{please ping or talk to me} 14:15, 2 January 2019 (UTC)

@Jeff G.: In Main Train Station Dresden was this Letter "Prakticas Kameras". Here you see the right direction of this letter File:Fotothek df n-10 0000516.jpg. Oups, I see see this secound image was taken milliseconds after the first one. :-) Please flopp the image 525. --sk (talk) 20:48, 2 January 2019 (UTC)

disable for certain filetypes?

Would it be an option to disable/hide the rotate button for filetypes it can't rotate like SVG, PDF or video files? Or at least show a big bold warning once the rotate template had been placed on a file of these types? --Denniss (talk) 16:11, 1 November 2012 (UTC)

Hiding is possible at MediaWiki:Gadget-RotateLink.js - $.inArray(ext, ['ogg', 'oga', 'mid']); if the file is not processable by Rotatebot, the user is made aware of this: This type of file cannot be rotated automatically; rotation will have to be done manually, which may take some time., the template can be changed at {{Rotate}}.

TODO: Automatically add nobot=-param if script detects that MIME type can't be rotated by bot. -- Rillke^(q?) 23:58, 1 November 2012 (UTC)

wrong rotation orders set by users

Occasionally I run across images with wrong rotation orders issued by the script because the user did not wait for the thumbnail image to appear. Would it be possible to highlight the message to wait for the thumbnail to appear and/or move it to the text above the angle buttons? --Denniss (talk) 10:55, 17 December 2012 (UTC)

Watchlisting

After recently trying to help out Fae (with his upload of images from the Internet Archive's Flickr stream), I've come into a slight drama. While I watch any page I touch by 'default', and really don't want to change that setting, I am currently having my watchlist flooded with notifications that images have been successfully rotated. These are images I really have no interest in watching, I'm just running through the category and putting the request in for the (maaany) rotated ones. Point being, would it be possible to add a configuration option to the gadget that specifically prevents rotation requests from watchlisting the page? Revent (talk) 20:44, 18 July 2015 (UTC)

Rotate link missing

The newly uploaded image File:New-York (NYPL Hades-118715-54840).tif by @Fae: needs rotating, but the rotate link is missing. Is there a technical reason (e.g. TIF files can't be rotated), or some other reason for this? Optimist on the run (talk) 16:51, 20 January 2016 (UTC)

Some people urged me to disable the link for file formats not supported by the bot. So yes, it's technical but not entirely, social as well. -- Rillke^(q?) 18:09, 20 January 2016 (UTC)

Fractional degree angles

I see that now it's possible to rotate an image by any number of degrees (e.g. 2 degree or 358 degrees), which is very convenient. Thanks to the designers for adding this feature! Would it be possible to enable fractional degrees (e.g. 1.5 degree or 358.5 degrees) as well? If the underlying tool is something like ImageMagick, then the cost of rotation should be the same... --Vmenkov (talk) 21:09, 15 March 2017 (UTC)

Similarly, please provide an option for a bigger thumbnail - when we request small rotations (e.g. 2 degree or 358 degrees), a bigger thumbnail is needed to accurately determine the correct degree of rotation to correspond with vertical/horizontal. Even when moving a separate window (Notepad, Calculator, FireFox etc) onto the thumbnail to align for comparison, the current thumbnail is so small that it is difficult to see if the rotated temporary thumbnail is aligned to horizontal/vertical.

MediaWiki:RotateRequest.js Textänderung / Differenzierung 90/180/270° Botbearbeitung von frei wählbarer händischer Bearbeitung

Die Maske der Funktion Bild drehen textlich/inhaltlich bitte etwas überarbeiten:

Wenn Du eine Drehung um 90, 180 oder 270° erbittest, wird Rotatebot das in ein paar Stunden tun. Voraussichtlich wird es so viel mehr Zeit erfordern.

Das Voraussichtlich wird es so ... ist missverständlich. (In der englischen Version ist das besser: If you request a rotation by any other angle it will probably take longer.) Änderung so in etwa:

Davon abweichende Drehungen werden durch erfahrene Nutzer manuell durchgeführt. Erfahrungsgemäß wird das nicht zeitnah erfolgen.

Besser wäre eine generelle Überarbeitung. Die Ursache, warum die Bilder 90, 180 oder 270 Grad falsch liegen, ist hier nicht von Bedeutung.
Macht es viel Arbeit, die Maske dahingehend zu ändern:

• den Text über die ganze Maskenbreite laufen zu lassen?
• das freie Eingabefeld zu separieren?

Es ergäbe sich:

Du kannst diese Funktion verwenden, um Bilder, die in falscher Orientierung angezeigt werden, von Rotatebot korrigieren zu lassen:
Im Uhrzeigersinn
|_| 90°
|_| 180°
|_| 270°
Davon abweichende Drehungen werden durch erfahrene Nutzer manuell durchgeführt:
|___|°
Erfahrungsgemäß wird das nicht zeitnah erfolgen.

Entsprechend dann auch die englische Version. Simpler, verständlicher. Danke & SWE --Frze ^{> talk} 08:47, 8 July 2017 (UTC)

Jeff G., even if the bot is not able to rotate such files, shouldn't we mark the files so that it can be later rotated? --Arnd (talk) 14:26, 29 December 2018 (UTC)

@Aschroet: {{Rotate}} displays no syntax for requesting flipping / mirroring.   — Jeff G. ツ _{please ping or talk to me} 16:38, 29 December 2018 (UTC)

Jeff G., clear. However my question is if we could now extend the template for flipping. This way we don't loose the info which files need to be flipped. And when somewhen in future a bot can deal with flipping it can perform the task. --Arnd (talk) 23:13, 29 December 2018 (UTC)

@Aschroet: We could, if we had the syntax for it. Please do yourself a favor and compare wikt:loose to wikt:lose.   — Jeff G. ツ _{please ping or talk to me} 01:11, 31 December 2018 (UTC)

Right now the instructions to when the gadget is used are:

		// Only File pages
		title.getNamespaceId() !== mw.config.get( 'wgNamespaceIds' ).file ||
		// Ignore these extensions
		[ 'ogg', 'oga', 'ogv', 'opus', 'webm', 'mid', 'svg', 'pdf', 'djvu', 'stl' ]
			.indexOf( ext = title.getExtension().toLowerCase() ) !== -1 ||

Instead of specifying which mime type it shouldn't be used on, perhaps it should be specified which file mimes it should be used on instead? As far as I can see in Special:ListFiles/SteinsplitterBot it is JPEG/JPG, PNG and TIF/TIFF. I can't see any GIF files however it should probably be added as well. Perhaps @Lucas Werkmeister: can fix this? The problem now is that all mime types it shouldn't pop up at aren't listed in the ignored list, for exampel all .mp3 files.Jonteemil (talk) 09:53, 7 May 2020 (UTC)

Oh, I noticed now that @Steinsplitter: also is an interface admim. What do you think? It is after all your bot.Jonteemil (talk) 11:38, 7 May 2020 (UTC)

You are welcome to propose the coding change by providing the new code (which is a while list then). Best --Steinsplitter (talk) 11:49, 7 May 2020 (UTC)

@Steinsplitter: If only I new how to code :).Jonteemil (talk) 13:59, 7 May 2020 (UTC)

i think this code to replace MediaWiki:Gadget-RotateLink.js#L-18 to 20 should do the job. i didnt test the code, please review before adding it.

		// Only accept these filemime
		[ 'image/gif', 'image/jpeg', 'image/png' ]
			.indexOf( ext = title.getMimeType() ) === -1 ||

@Steinsplitter which mime can your bot rotate? is xcf supported?--RZuo (talk) 11:20, 1 December 2023 (UTC)

i think my code is probably buggy. i dont know how to use getMimeType or get a file's type/mime. RZuo (talk) 10:26, 5 December 2023 (UTC)

@RZuo: mw.Title doesn’t seem to have a getMimeType() method. But no problem, the bot doesn’t use MIME types either… It uses file extensions:

        if(substr(strtolower($picture['title']),-4) == ".jpg" OR substr(strtolower($picture['title']),-5) == ".jpeg") { $catcontent[$arraykey]['filetype'] = "jpg"; }
        else if(substr(strtolower($picture['title']),-4) == ".png") { $catcontent[$arraykey]['filetype'] = "png"; }
        else if(substr(strtolower($picture['title']),-4) == ".gif") { $catcontent[$arraykey]['filetype'] = "gif"; }

so the JS code would be

		// Only File pages
		title.getNamespaceId() !== mw.config.get( 'wgNamespaceIds' ).file ||
		// Only extensions Rotatebot can handle
		[ 'jpg', 'jpeg', 'png', 'gif' ]
			.indexOf( ext = title.getExtension() && title.getExtension().toLowerCase() ) === -1 ||

—Tacsipacsi (talk) 09:05, 25 December 2023 (UTC)

on second thought, this is probably not a good idea. other file types do have the needs of rotation. it's ok to let the bot reject such requests and so the file is tagged for rotation manually or by another bot. RZuo (talk) 15:30, 17 January 2024 (UTC)

If the goal is making it possible to ask rotating as many file types as possible, then the current code is also too restrictive, not only what I proposed. Why couldn’t SVGs or PDFs require rotation? Maybe we should work with MIME types indeed, and allow rotating anything that’s not audio/*. application/* is problematic, though: application/pdf (PDF) makes sense, probably application/sla (3D models) as well, but application/ogg can be both audio and video, can’t it? —Tacsipacsi (talk) 15:09, 20 January 2024 (UTC)

Russian translation/Перевод на русский язык

{{Edit protected}}

If there is a way to add i18n for the tooltip message, line 95 in the Gadget-RotateLink.js,

title: 'Request a (permanent) correction of the rotation if the thumbnails display in the wrong orientation. Please try to purge the server’s and client’s cache before if this file is an upload before middle of October 2011.'

could please someone add the following translation in Russian:

title: 'Запросите (бессрочное) исправление поворота, если миниатюры отображаются в неправильной ориентации. Перед запросов попробуйте, пожалуйста, очистить кэш сервера и браузера, если этот файл был загружен до середины октября 2011 года.'

Make preview thumbnail zoomable

For "odd" rotation angles other than 90/180/270°, it is difficult to estimate the required angle from the tiny preview thumbnail (example: c:File:1841_halfpenny_reverse.jpg which, after rotation by 357° as requested, is still not straight). As a remedy, may I suggest to make the thumbnail zoomable so one can assess the rotation effect more precisely in advance -- thanks! --HReuter (talk) 20:48, 7 February 2024 (UTC)
