repeated removal of tags

Hello. I reverted a removal of tags on File:ATTESTATION FFK Karaté .jpg you protected 1 month ago. You should watch too File:Waloud WW.jpg by the same user : I tagged it today. This personality (Walid Mabrouk) try to add his own article on french wikipedia (where I am administrator) before french election on 28th June but he is not notable enough to have its own article. Supertoff (talk) 04:58, 15 June 2020 (UTC) You can watch abuselog too. Supertoff (talk) 05:01, 15 June 2020 (UTC) One more thing : user:Heatwawe is indefinitly blocked on french wikipedia. Supertoff (talk) 05:04, 15 June 2020 (UTC)

According this, you maybe should protect this article ? (he tries to write here what he can't write on french wikipedia) Supertoff (talk) 16:41, 18 June 2020 (UTC)

Why do you keep removing my account man RiooDenero (talk) 13:01, 18 June 2020 (UTC)

1) This is not a social media site. 2) This is not the right place to promote yourself. 3) Ads of companies, organizations and people get deleted. 4) This is not Wikipedia, this is Wikimedia Commons. Here are no article pages at all. 5) User pages are for people who contribute to our projects. Until now you didn't contribute anything. Better you join twitter, facebook, instagram or the like.

Info

Over the past few days thee have been a number of bot spam accounts created - they all have "review" in name so they are easy to see. I've found some of these accounts dating back to last year (& blocked by you at the time!). In general I am blacklisting the domains globally on Meta so feel free to let me know if you think I miss one. Best --Herby talk thyme 07:22, 20 June 2020 (UTC)

Herby, thanks for notifying! I realised about one week ago that stewards did bulk lock such accounts and I made a query, see here. --Achim (talk) 09:07, 20 June 2020 (UTC)
Ah - you were ahead of me . I'm aggressively added them to the BL so maybe they will get bored and go away...! Best --Herby talk thyme 09:27, 20 June 2020 (UTC)

Cropping allowed

If I cropped someone else's image, should I give credit with the same license? SpinnerLaserz (talk) 16:15, 30 June 2020 (UTC)

SpinnerLaserz, yes, author and license are the same, pages should be tagged with {{Image extracted}} and {{Extracted from}} respectively. Best, --Achim (talk) 08:17, 1 July 2020 (UTC)
This file (File:Csongrád, gimnázium.JPG) incidentally contains the coat of arms and flag of Hungary. I uploaded a crop version of the picture (File:National symbols, Csongrád, gimnázium.jpg). Is this fine too? SpinnerLaserz (talk) 20:37, 1 July 2020 (UTC)
Yes, please add {{Image extracted}} as I did on File:Csongrád, gimnázium.JPG, thank you. Best, --Achim (talk) 20:47, 1 July 2020 (UTC)
What about this Category:Photographs of flags of Hungary in Ambrózfalva that the Prospective category template. Is that good too? SpinnerLaserz (talk) 21:40, 1 July 2020 (UTC)
SpinnerLaserz, that's OK, but nonetheless it might be deleted if it's still empty after, say, 9 months or a year. --Achim (talk) 21:50, 1 July 2020 (UTC)
Okay, for Category:Photographs of flags of Hungary in Miskolc are there any pictures that incidentally contained flags. If so, can I still make cropped versions that only focuses on the flags. I need to write the tips down in the userpage so that I do not make the same mistakes in the future. Also, I am not sure if this category (Category:Flag of Hungary (incidental)) I recently made works. SpinnerLaserz (talk) 14:54, 2 July 2020 (UTC)

Concern

Hello @Achim55 and Tm: I just found out that one of my files was tagged for deletion under some irrevelant motive (personal attack, vandalism, harassment). It should be noted that neither me, nor anyone of us are here to create trouble for anybody. I know my upload are problematic, and I should have been blocked due to such large uploading of copyright issue files. But I'm glad that the community has given me the chance to correct myself, and since June I'm working on to correct myself. So I don't want and can't bear this that the files which I have uploaded is used by for vandalism, harassment, threat to anybody (single or organisation). So I would like to request you to delete all my upload and if in the process you found that I should be blocked due to the higher number of copyright files upload. I would totally fine with it. I'm sorry to the community for all the problem that I create unknowingly. Thanks. C1K98V (💬 ✒️ 📂) 09:51, 2 July 2020 (UTC)

Can you take a look at my effort to use SD template for 2 G7 deletions?

I uploaded 2 screencaps to commons for an AfD discussion, because I wanted to reference them in discussions at fr-wiki as well as en-wiki. Now that the AfDs have closed, I am concerned these screencaps could be used outside wiki to attack the people being quoted. Based on the AfD discussions, those people were ignorant of wiki policies, believed they had no COI because they were not being paid to edit, and sincerely believed they were helping the world by promoting their unsupported-by-scientific-research pain relief method. I am not sure what the right approach is to prevent doing them harm, so if you have a better idea, please make it so! The 2 files are File:GroupAttemptToManipulateWikipedia.jpg and File:Abuse of multiple Wikipedias to promote therapy unsupported by medical experts.jpg. Thanks for your help and advice in the past.

Dubiose Situation hochgeladener Bilder

Hallo Achim, ich habe heute 32 Bilder der Pfarrkirche Straßwalchen die ich am späten Vormittag besucht habe hochgeladen. Folgendes Problem stellt sich nun, obwohl exzellentem Vorschaubild lassen sich einige nicht in voller Auflösung betrachten. Kannst du mal nachsehen, und das (wohl) technische Problem beheben. Mit bestem Dank und freundlichen Grüßen Ricarda --Ricardalovesmonuments (talk) 18:59, 16 July 2020 (UTC)

You will never ever win, you know that, right? Not unless Commons, anti-spam settings are fixed. So, why delete?--BevinKacon (talk) 18:33, 21 July 2020 (UTC)
BevinKacon, like some more? 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 and counting. It's not easy to get them on upload, because almost all of the spam links didn't show up previously. So even my personal SBL having 10,700+ entries is not helpful. --Achim (talk) 14:46, 24 July 2020 (UTC)
Spam will be uploaded far more quickly than you can delete it, the only solution is to change the mediawiki anti spam settings.--BevinKacon (talk) 18:15, 24 July 2020 (UTC)

Editing

hi why can other people edit peoples pages but not me Sophiemcolville1994 (talk) 15:29, 24 July 2020 (UTC)

Sophie, you can. There are always a content page and a corresponding talk page. "File:" and "File talk:", "User:" and User talk:", "Category:" and "Category talk:" etc. Everyone may edit any page (except some technically restricted ones), just other users' pages starting with "User:" are treated to be 'private property'. Edit their "User talk:" page instead. Best, Achim (talk) 15:38, 24 July 2020 (UTC)

I have just nominated a set of files for deletion

I used to be able to do this as a batch task, but at User talk:Timtrent#Your VFC installation method is deprecated was given instructions on updating the batch files task. I think I am now in an incorrect status to enable the new gadget, since I have tried multiple times.

Please can you advise me? Is it as simple as asking for a status change? If so, whom do I ask, please?

My main experience is in en WP, as a new draft reviewer for w:WP:AFC. Often I see 'unusual' pictures uploaded here and come to offer them for deletion. Please ping me on any reply. I am not on commons regularly Timtrent (talk) 12:00, 29 July 2020 (UTC)

Timtrent, I'm sorry, I have no clue what happened and why you can't activate the gadget. Suggest asking for help at Commons:Village pump/Technical. Best, Achim (talk) 12:27, 29 July 2020 (UTC)
Will do. Very many thanks for the direction. Timtrent (talk) 12:41, 29 July 2020 (UTC)

summaries for closing deletion requests

thanks for promptly closing some deletion requests an IPv6 user had opened as a form of trolling; however, you should be aware that w:retard (pejorative) is considered a slur. Arlo James Barnes 23:11, 29 July 2020 (UTC)

Arlo, you are right. I've been upset because it had been an extremly aggressive vandalism of about 170 nonsense DRs and ongoing insulting behavior against me and some other users. But surprise - they finally apologized for that. Regards, --Achim (talk) 07:29, 30 July 2020 (UTC)

There is something odd about that Etherscan image (& maybe the user) but I haven't figured out what yet. Contribs on en wp and I think wikidata are not useful... --Herby talk thyme 11:50, 1 August 2020 (UTC)

Hi again

Hi Achim, sorry to bother you again. :-) I changed Category:Het Piepke, Munnekezijl to Category:Het Piepke, Grijpskerk. Now the Wikidata Infobox doesn't work. I tried to make a new one, but now it's double. I have to leave in 10 minutes. I hope you have time to look at it. Thanks in advance, I hope it is not so much work. Auf wiedersehen :-) Grtz.

Hallo, ich habe nun versucht, die Lizensierung des Portraits von Klaus Küster, zu präzisieren. Wenn dass immer noch nicht ausreicht, bitte ich Dich um Hilfe. Falls dies nicht möglich ist, würde ich ggf. ein Selbstportrait, das der im Artikel besprochene Klaus Küster selbst von sich fertigte, als Bild-Ersatz einfügen. VG, MedienOptimist. MedienOptimist (talk) 14:38, 5 August 2020 (UTC)
Hallo Optimist, wahrscheinlich ist es nicht so offensichtlich: Es besteht ein gewisser Widerspruch zwischen CC BY-SA und dem angefügten Text. Die CC BY-SA 4.0 gestattet ausdrücklich eine kommerzielle Nutzung, im Text steht aber "für nicht kommerzielle Verwendung", eins von beiden geht nur, oder es ist vielleicht missverständlich formuliert. Leider ist hier unter Commons eine Freigabe für ausschließlich nicht-kommerzielle Nutzung (NC) nicht möglich. Ich finde das auch nicht so dolle, aber die Regeln sind hier nun mal so. Gruß, Achim (talk) 16:40, 5 August 2020 (UTC)


Besten Dank für den Hinweis. ich habe versucht, den Text zur Lizenz den Notwendigkeiten anzupassen.

Anstatt "das Bild OBJEKTNAME" kannst du auch "alle Uploads des Benutzers User:Brutarchitekt" schreiben. Diese Prozedur ist leider nötig, weil hier alle Benutzeraccounts anonym sind. Ich könnte z.

Ciao Achim55,

I have uploaded the flags listed below with increased nominal dimensions only for matching the nominal dimensions commonly used for flags with aspect ratio 2:3 >> 900x600.

Please, can you overwrite the flags listed below?

Johanna, wees bedankt. Man mit den Numerale un Artikel glööv ick dat nich, ook wann't in'n Book steiht. Lange Vokalen bruukt mennigmol twee 'ee': een (lang) != en (kort). Dorüm gefallt mi dat nich so. Wann een (sic!) seggt "Dat is en lange Straat" is dat 'n kort 'e', un dat much ick nich lieden... Achim (talk) 16:53, 28 August 2020 (UTC)
Ik kann dat goot verstahn, Achim. Na SASS sien Wöörbook un Grammatikbook warrt de unbestimmte Artikel [eɪ̯n] ⟨en⟩ un de Indefinitpronomen [eɪ̯n] as ok de Numerale [eɪ̯n] ⟨een⟩ schreven. Dat Kleine Hamburgische Wörterbuch (vun Beate Hennig un Jürgen Meier) schrifft in all dree Fäll: ⟨een⟩. Dor heet dat ok för [oʊ̯k] („auch“) ⟨ook⟩ un nich ⟨ok⟩ as bi SASS. Dat lücht in. Man de „Brukers vun de Wikipedia op Plattdüütsch hebbt utmaakt, dat se de Sass-Schrievwies na dat Wöörbook vun nds:Johannes Sass (kiek ok ünner nds:Wikipedia:Wöörböker) bruken doot.“ (nds:Wikipedia:Sass) Dat weert't, wat ik in'n Kopp hatt harr. – In Tokunft schullen wi uns Vörslääg toeerst op de Diskusschoonssiet vun dat Template vörstellen un de Vörlaag nich eenfach ännern.

Johanna, "Wi bruukt een Schrievwies, de de ganzen Landslüüd na Mööglichkeit goot verstaht." Nee, dat is keen goode Saak. De Frees maakt dat op ehr Wikipedia beter: Dor steiht, in wat för een Soort von Frees (Öömrang, Fering, Mooring, ...) een Artikel schreeven is: frr:Sjiisklun is Öömrang, frr:Benevento (Prowins) is Fering, frr:Ååst-Fraschlönj is Mooring. Dat dücht mi veel beter. Dorto kümmt, dat de Lüüd vun de Wikipedia op Platt nix op annere Wikipedias to seggen hebbt. Op de:wp mutt 'n nich na SASS schreeven, op Commons ook nich. Wat'n Glück...

Creating a category for "Frank Tweedy"?

Frank Tweedy (1854-1937) was a prolific cartographer and botanist, whose article is still in draft at en-wiki. A search for "Frank Tweedy" in Wikimedia Commons brings up many files. Some are maps where Tweedy did the cartography and some are botanical publications related to his work in botany. Since these are mostly files rather than images, I think a category is a better way to collect them than a gallery. But before I add a category "Frank Tweedy" to many files, I would like to see if you have advice. Thanks if you do (advice from other experienced editors also very welcome.)

HouseOfChange, that's fine, feel free to add media and categories. Best, Achim (talk) 18:06, 3 September 2020 (UTC)

File:Olivia Arben London 2017.jpg

Hi Achim, I felt like reaching you here directly having done that on the talk page of my image previously. I am Olivia Arben. This is my picture in question. Here's the issue. This image "File:Olivia Arben London 2017.jpg" appears top in Google search when my name is searched. I don't really like that. I already have another image on commons which I really like to be on top. Here is it "File:Olivia Arben walking London Fashion Week 2019.jpg". You can see, this one is on my wiki page here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olivia_Arben

So please, I want the previous image deleted from commons. I didn't authorize the uploader to add it here on commons. He is not the copyright owner. Alan West is my photographer who actually owns the copyright.

Furthermore, since the image is not being used on my wiki page, there's no need to keep it here. It's actually messing things up in Google search for me. Please help me delete it.

I can provide further proofs that I am Olivia Arben talking to you if you prefer. I only registered in wikicommons just to settle this issue. I have no other intention here. Please help me delete this image. All the best.Olivia Arben (talk) 20:43, 3 September 2020 (UTC)

We think that you could be helpful as an expert

I'm sorry, I have no clue about that matter. On Commons there is no 'point of view', so we do hardly delete anything because of "wrong" content. Such decisions belong to Wikipedias by using media or even not. --Achim (talk) 19:16, 6 September 2020 (UTC)

Violation of privacy by publication of private addresses and other private data

Hallo Achim, mir sind einige Dateien aufgefallen, die private Adressen und andere private Daten enthalten. Ich habe vorsichtshalber Schnelllöschanträge gestellt, bin mir aber nicht ganz sicher, ob das so richtig ist. Könntest Du Dir die Sachen anhand meines Beitragslogs mal ansehen? Gruß, --ThT (talk) 13:15, 3 September 2020 (UTC)

Thomas, danke für die Nachricht! Ich habe zwecks einfacherer Handhabung die Dateien in eine separate Category:Documents regarding Dolgen manor gepackt und die Angelegenheit an Raymond weitergeleitet, weil mir hier ein Oversighter geeigneter erschien. Gruß, Achim (talk) 17:46, 3 September 2020 (UTC)
Hallo Achim, vielen Dank. 7 weitere habe ich noch gefunden:

Hello, I tried to add an image in the Monuments section but it has been removed by you, as here: https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Commons:Wiki_Loves_Monuments_in_India/Monuments/Gandhi_Heritage_Sites/Delhi&oldid=prev&diff=446713637 Please let know the issue. I uploaded this image first in Wikicommons. Sorry, am a NoObie!

Aradhadelhi, on my screen it shows up correctly on Commons:Wiki Loves Monuments in India/Monuments/Gandhi Heritage Sites/Delhi. I added your image to d:Q70963049, so that it is linked from there. Regards, Achim (talk) 07:50, 8 September 2020 (UTC)

Ciao Achim,

I corrected the geometry for this flag: File:Flag of the Republic of China.svg. In the current version the angle of each "white sun"'s ray is 29.862°: in my version is 30.000°, according to Taiwanese Law (see: en:Flag of the Republic of China#Construction details and .

Moreover, I simplified the internal structure, reducing the number of elements.

My fixed version is: File:Flag of the Republic of China (Fixed geometry and slightly simplified structure) - UPLOADED FOR OVERWRITE DON'T USE.svg.

Please, can you overwrite the current uncorrect version?

Ciao and thank you.

FDRMRZUSA (talk) 15:50, 9 September 2020 (UTC+1)

✓ Done. Cheers, Achim (talk) 15:12, 9 September 2020 (UTC)


Ciao Achim,

I optimized the svg code, with code cleanup and reduction, for this flag: File:Flag of the Republic of China.svg: 864 bytes >>> 485 bytes.

My optimized version is: File:Flag of the Republic of China (Optimized SVG code - UPLOADED FOR OVERWRITE - DON'T USE).svg.

Please, can you overwrite the current version?

Ciao and thank you.

FDRMRZUSA (talk) 18:40, 10 September 2020 (UTC+2)

FDRMRZUSA, done. Next time I suggest a different procedure: Leave me a note and I will temporarily remove the page protection. Best, Achim (talk) 17:20, 10 September 2020 (UTC)

Q

Hi, do you think that the uploads by them are out of scope? --Minoraxtalk 15:26, 11 September 2020 (UTC)

Minorax, per scope it's a borderline case. But most (all?) of them have no author (a web source link isn't an author) and a google drive source link without any license info. However, I'm not familiar with google drive rules. Best, Achim (talk) 18:02, 12 September 2020 (UTC)

Request of: temporary removal of page protection

Ciao Achim,

I improved the internal geometric structure for the "Star of David" in this files:

In the current versions, the "Star" is composed of two elements (2 opposing equilateral triangles, one superimposed on the other). This structure weighs down the file and does not take full advantage of the possibilities of geometry applied to Inkscape.

My version uses only one object (1 6-pointed star): this simple technical solution, simplifying the file structure, allows a significant reduction of bytes (approx. -60/65%). Also the possible management of the "Star of David" for the future will be easier.

Therefore, I ask you, please, (and if possible) the temporary removal of page protection for files listed above.

Ciao and thank you.

FDRMRZUSA (talk) 17:00, 12 September 2020 (UTC+2)

FDRMRZUSA, done, upload should work for you. --Achim (talk) 15:17, 12 September 2020 (UTC)

FDRMRZUSA, another restriction I wasn't aware of. Please try again. --Achim (talk) 16:31, 12 September 2020 (UTC)

Unfortunately I still can’t upload: maybe we could go back to the old method (file-for-overwrite).FDRMRZUSA (talk) 18:45, 12 September 2020 (UTC+2).

FDRMRZUSA, yes, you're right, I don't find the cause. --Achim (talk) 17:17, 12 September 2020 (UTC)

OK Achim, I uploaded: File:Star of David (PROVISIONAL FILE - UPLOADED FOR OVERWRITE - DON'T USE).svg. This is the list of changes: "Increased nominal dimensions. Simplified internal structure (reduced number of its elements). Optimized svg code with code cleanup and reduction. No other changes." FDRMRZUSA (talk) 19:30, 12 September 2020 (UTC+2).

Versionslöschungen meiner User-Seiten möglich ?

Hallo Achim, ganz wenige meiner zahlreichen Uploads (pdf`n) der letzten 11-Jahre boten Anlass zur Kritik und wurden deshalb teilweise gelöscht. - Meine User-Seiten entsprachen auch nicht in allen Belangen zwingend den ehrbaren COMMONS-Zielen und ich habe beide Seiten in den letzten Tagen gründlich "entrümpelt", so dass sie keinen Anlass zur Aufregung resp. Beanstandung mehr bieten sollten. - Meine Frage : Besteht die Möglichkeit, zu meinen beiden Seiten (User / User-Talk) die Altversionen jeweils zu löschen, so dass auf beiden Seiten in der "History" nur noch der letzte/aktuelle Stand vom heutigen Tage (...und künftige neuere Versionen) aufrufbar und sichtbar wäre ? - Falls dies möglich wäre, würde ich Dir ein virtuelles - oder besser noch reales - gut gekühltes Bier vom Fass spendieren (....oder auch zwei) ! - MfG aus Köln --Gordito1869 (talk) 13:12, 24 September 2020 (UTC)

Info: Hier und vielleicht noch anderswo wird darauf verlinkt. Es ist nicht auszuschließen, dass irgendwelche alten Fehden mit Bezug auf den nun entfernten Inhalt der Seiten wiederbelebt werden könnten. --2003:E4:5F08:1C22:42B0:76FF:FE7B:15B2 14:11, 24 September 2020 (UTC)
Auf meine konkrete Frage wird nichts "verlinkt"; ferner wurden sog. alte "Fehden" familiär beigelegt. - War das Deine erbetene Anwort unter IP, Achim ? - MfG Gordito1869 (talk) 14:55, 24 September 2020 (UTC)
Nein, das ist ein Kommentar einer Unbeteilgten, die vor kurzem die andere Diskussion gesehen hatte und nun diese. Und die diese alte Diskussion als zusätzliches Argument sah, dass die von Dir gewünschte Löschung sinnvoll sein könnte. Aber wenn Du das anders siehst und wieder gleich unter die Decke gehst, kannst Du ja eine Zivilklage gegen mich anstellen, weil ich auch Achims Benutzerseite einen Link gesetzt habe. Ich wusste nicht, dass der etwas mit einer Familienfehde zu tun hatte, sondern hatte das für eine andere Fehde gehalten. --2003:E4:5F08:1C22:42B0:76FF:FE7B:15B2 15:22, 24 September 2020 (UTC)
Nun lass doch einfach den Gefragten antworten, so er dies denn auf SEINER User-Seite will. - Auf den Unfug mit "Zivilklage und Decke gehen" muss ich hier nicht eingehen; was soll dieser Unfug auf einer fremden User-Disk. ? (EOD : IP 2003:E4:5F08:1C22:42B0:76FF:FE7B:15B2) --Gordito1869 (talk) 15:30, 24 September 2020 (UTC)
Hallo Michael, zwischen Benutzerseiten (User:) und Benutzerdiskussionsseiten (User talk:) ist ein himmelweiter Unterschied. Benutzerseiten sind Seiten des Benutzers und stehen "unter seiner Hoheit", da hat sonst keiner was zu editieren. Da lösche ich dir problemlos alles, was du möchtest. Benutzerdiskussionsseiten sind Seiten für den Benutzer, die (wie alle talk pages) typischerweise von anderen Usern oder IPs benutzt werden, um (wie eben jetzt auf dieser Seite) einem User eine Nachricht zu hinterlassen. Da löschen wir eigentlich gar nichts (außer in seltenen Sonderfällen, wenn z. B. jemand anonym bleiben möchte und irgendwer etwas geschrieben hat, was ihn identifizierbar macht, oder auch Sachen wie Beleidigungen oder schwerwiegender Vandalismus oder Missbrauch für Werbung o. ä.). Soll ich auf deiner Benutzerseite alles bis auf die jüngste Version löschen? Gruß, Achim (talk) 16:02, 24 September 2020 (UTC)
Hallo Achim, Danke für die Antwort : Falls möglich, bitte meine beiden Commons-USER-Seiten (nicht de.wp Benutzer-Seiten) auf die jeweils aktuelle Version reduzieren (d.h.: die "History" bis auf die jeweils letzte Version vom heutigen Tag komplett unwiderruflich löschen). - Am aktuellen Erscheinungsbild der beiden User-Seiten sollte sich dadurch nichts ändern, oder ? --- Es gab eine uralte "Fehde", die nunmehr familiär bereinigt ist resp. zu sein scheint (...früher wäre es unweigerlich zum Duell gekommen !) - aber mir wäre es trotzdem sehr lieb, wenn alte Familiengeschichten, die unter Commons ohnehin recht wenig zu suchen haben/hatten - (Versions)gelöscht würden (User-Seite und User-Talk-Seite). - Würdest Du das übernehmen - und wo soll ich das fassfrische herrrrliche belgische Stark-Bier abliefern ?? - MfG --Gordito1869 (talk) 16:14, 24 September 2020 (UTC) ... PS : Grrrr., ich habe die Dame File:Skulptur einer Fischmarktfrau, von Josiane Vanhoutte, Ostende (Oostende Belgien).jpg irrtümlich für eine Fischmarktfrau gehalten, weil die Bronze-Büste direkt vor der Fischhalle mit den Fischverkäuferinnen stand und sie ein Netz um den Hals trägt; nach genauerer Recherche ist die Dame aber Sängerin von Fischerliedern (kann man das Bild entspr. umbenennen, sonst haut die mir den ollen Fisch um die Ohren ? - MfG--Gordito1869 (talk) 16:33, 24 September 2020 (UTC)

Michael, geh auf File:Skulptur einer Fischmarktfrau, von Josiane Vanhoutte, Ostende (Oostende Belgien).jpg, klicke oben auf 'Mehr' → 'Verschieben' und gib einen besseren Namen ein. Achim (talk) 16:39, 24 September 2020 (UTC)

Ok, das sollte so klappen mit der Sängerin. - Kannst Du meine User-Talk-Seite evtl. auch noch - bis auf die letzte heutige Vers. der History - löschen ? ...mir wär dann "irgendwie" wohler... MfG --Gordito1869 (talk) 16:53, 24 September 2020 (UTC)
Michael, ich brauche noch etwas Zeit, weil ich nur deine Edits lösche. Krieg bitte keinen Schreck, verfahrenstechnisch muss ich alles löschen und dann wiederherstellen. --Achim (talk) 17:41, 24 September 2020 (UTC) ✓ Done. --Achim (talk) 18:01, 24 September 2020 (UTC)
Das ist super-nett, danke Achim; ich hoffe, ich kann Dich tatsächlich im RL mal auf ein Paar lecker Bierchen einladen - (m)ein echter, echter Tipp wäre z.B. hier (...da waren wir am Montag noch, zum X-ten Male) - Alles Gute bis dahin - --Gordito1869 (talk) 18:20, 24 September 2020 (UTC)
Jawoll, ich hab vor 40 Jahren in Ostende Westvleteren genießen können, das ist mir bis heute im Gedächtnis geblieben... --Achim (talk) 18:38, 24 September 2020 (UTC)
Was für ein Zufall, ganau das wollte ich Dir alternativ anbieten; in der örtlichen Kloster-Kneipe vor kostet es um die 5-Euros (an der Küste habe ich es für 18-Euros für das 12er (!) auf einer Speisekarte gesehen, weil es eigentlich nicht für den öffentlichen/kommerziellen Ausschank von den Mönchen freigegeben wird/wurde (das Verkaufssystem der Mönche für ihre Holzkisten vor Ort ist abenteuerlich, aber bewusst so gewollt). - Nochmals Danke für Alles, ich behalte die Sache mit dem belg. Bier im Auge (meine Tochter lebt in Gent - und diverse Möglichkeiten stehen mir allzeit offen) - bis dann - tschüss !!! (...übrigens schmeckt dieses fast identisch, da es nach (fast) gleicher Rezeptur zuvor für die Mönche außerhalb des Klosters gebraut wurde - und es kostet einen Bruchteil von Westvleteren) --Gordito1869 (talk) 18:49, 24 September 2020 (UTC)
Hallo Achim, meine Seiten sind nun auf imho ansprechendem Niveau : NOCHMALS DANK FÜR DEINE MÜHEN !!! - Mein Angebot steht : irgendwann und irgendwo sollten wir einige belg. Bierchen auf meine Kosten gemeinsam verkosten (...falls Du mal in Köln - oder gar im herrrrlichen (!) Gent - sein solltests, melde Dich bitte auf meiner Disk. - Eine "Kampfansage" an Westvleteren 8/12 ist übrigens auch dieses hier & insbes. auch dieses - verkrijgbaar u.a. hier. - Alles Gute, bleib gesund ... & Tot ziens ! : --Gordito1869 (talk) 07:14, 25 September 2020 (UTC)
