FROM AZTAW - Thank you for answering my query, Jeff. Being new at this, I'm not even sure that I'm putting this message in the correct place. As said, I'm trying to reach KDS4444 regarding the illustration on this page: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Chicken_egg_diagram.svg We are not familiar with .svg files and would like to ask if we could get this as an Illustrator .ai file with layers to customize for our book project, a printed book. This illustration is the best I have see anywhere showing the amniotic egg, but I would like to make some minor modifications to it. I am also a firm believer in giving full credit to artists in captions, and using "KDS4444" for the artist's name would look pretty lame! Since he rarely checks Wikimedia, I hope that you can provide a way to communicate with him directly, or forward my message to him.

Help[edit]

Hello, could you teach me on how to use cat-a-lot? I tried to use it but the old category can't be removed. In the mean time, can you help me move all files from Category:PNGCreated with Inkscape -> Category:PNG created with Inkscape. Thank you. 大诺史 (talk) 15:04, 5 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@大诺史: Please understand that cat-a-lot can only affect categories that are actually in the wikitext of a page. In the case of the category you mentioned, that is not the case; however, I have posted a request to fix the template that adds files to that category at Template talk:Created with Inkscape#Protected edit request re PNGCreated.   — Jeff G. please ping or talk to me 15:08, 5 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the reply to my question about copyrighted images. One more question though.[edit]

So you said that the file I uploaded was deleted because it had an external source, no license and no permission. I still would like to have Judy Sheindlin's article photo updated, however I know that I did it the wrong way. What is the proper way to do it where I can be granted permission? What am I supposed to click in this case?

- FrenzyMedia — Preceding unsigned comment added by FrenzyMedia (talk • contribs) 20:31, 11 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@FrenzyMedia: Commons can't accept that photo without COM:L compliant permission from the actual photographer or their contracted designee. English Wikipedia can't accept it for the same reason, plus the subject is still very much alive (see en:WP:F).   — Jeff G. please ping or talk to me 13:30, 12 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Jeff G.: Understandable. Thank you for the info, and I do hope they manage to find a way to update the article. I apologize for not knowing the proper procedures before.

File:Huawei wordmark.png has been listed at Commons:Deletion requests so that the community can discuss whether it should be kept or not. We would appreciate it if you could go to voice your opinion about this at its entry.

If you created this file, please note that the fact that it has been proposed for deletion does not necessarily mean that we do not value your kind contribution. It simply means that one person believes that there is some specific problem with it, such as a copyright issue. Please see Commons:But it's my own work! for a guide on how to address these issues.

Please remember to respond to and – if appropriate – contradict the arguments supporting deletion. Arguments which focus on the nominator will not affect the result of the nomination. Thank you!

re Report by Desmello[edit]

Hi Jeff, For chemical equations and molecular diagrams, I build them in power point and save as a jpeg. Is the only way to avoid the filter to use the commons? How else do you show the file as the original image? Thanks @Desmello — Preceding unsigned comment added by Desmello (talk • contribs) 01:47, 18 June 2019‎ (UTC)[reply]

@Desmello: You could also crosswiki upload larger (>50KB or >5MP) jpg files or change the summary. If you upload using the Commons Upload Wizard, you can still use the file on English Wikipedia using the normal syntax, as per en:Help:Pictures. What do you mean by "show the file as the original image"?   — Jeff G. please ping or talk to me 02:22, 18 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Jeff G.: I preferred asking you directly since I got fast response from you last time. Is it possible to upload the logo https://wbtc.co.in/ in commons? Arnabsaha2212 (talk) 07:41, 25 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Arnabsaha2212: I don't think so, https://wbtc.co.in/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/logo-WBTCBig.png is pretty blurry, and https://wbtc.co.in/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/logo-WBTCStickyLogo.png is even worse (and off-center), plus both seem to exceed COM:TOO India and have no free licenses. You could upload one to English or Wikipedia for use in en:West Bengal Transport Corporation per en:WP:F; see also bn:উইকিপিডিয়া:মুক্ত নয় এমন উপাদান (which needs much translation).   — Jeff G. please ping or talk to me 11:10, 25 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
