Commons photographers: next virtual meeting on August 5

Dear member of the Commons Photographers User Group,

I'm inviting you to our next virtual meeting on Saturday, August 5th. We'll have two speakers: Poco a poco will provide us with an update on his underwater photography and George Oates from the Flickr Foundation will talk about the Flickr-to-Commons bridge (“Flickypedia”) that is currently in the works. If you're interested in attending, please sign up on this page: Virtual Meeting on August 5, 2023.

I hope you're having a great time taking photos and I'm looking forward to seeing you on August 5th.

All the best, --Frank Schulenburg (talk) 15:41, 20 July 2023 (UTC)

advice on File:Schoolgirls in Dorking, London (6258299657).jpg

This seems to be a very thorny issue, and I'm hoping you can help as you have been involved in this discussion before. Feel free to say if this ask is inappropriate.

I've submitted a deletion request for the image, as discussed before. The issue is that IronGargoyle apparently believes that my issue is solely the existence of the link to the original Flickr page, therefore they changed the link to hotlink to the image itself, bypassing the image description. They believe this meets the letter of the CC requirements.

I reverted this change, attempting to explain my stance is not the link itself. I believe that the link to the description should not be deleted/bypassed, as the only reason to do so would be because we know the image is inappropriate and want to hide that fact. They reverted and accused me of being disruptive. I don't know about policy around this, but ethically speaking this is really troubling to me and I don't know what to do.

I understand of course that people can reasonably differ on whether COM:DIGNITY applies or not. That's what the discussion on the deletion request is for and you yourself eloquently explained what a tricky issue it is. What I have difficulty understanding is the view that the image is made appropriate if we pretend we don't know that it's inappropriate. I am happy to let the request for deletion play out with whatever outcome but the idea that the image should be kept because the link which shows that it is unethical has been hidden from public view seems to me, ethically speaking, to be the worst possible outcome. Do you know what the correct thing to do is here to resolve the issue of the link? Cyllel (talk) 22:27, 13 November 2023 (UTC)

Flickypedia soft launch and a huge thank you

Dear fellow Commons photographer,

I hope this message finds you well. As you might already know, the Flickr Foundation has been busy creating a new Flickr-to-Commons bridge (“Flickypedia”) this year. After a successful demo at the GLAM Wiki Conference in Montevideo, the Flickr Foundation team is now inviting all members of the Commons Photographers User Group to be the first to review their alpha, reporting any technical issues or other feedback via the Flickypedia project talk page.

At the same time, this message is an opportunity for me to thank you for your trust and support over the past couple of years. Since 2017, we've grown into being one of the largest user groups in the Wikimedia universe. I've tremendously enjoyed interacting with all of our members when it came to joint photowalks at Wikimanias, virtual Zoom meetings where we covered a wide variety of photography topics, as well as our annual “Most memorable shot of the year”, among many other events. As I'm not running for an official position in our current board election, this will be my last message on behalf of the user group to you. Thanks for all the happy moments we shared together over the years! I hope you'll continue creating free images for the millions of people we serve through Wikipedia and Commons.

All the best, --Frank Schulenburg (talk) 19:36, 9 December 2023 (UTC)

Participation in North American Hub research

Hello, Rhododendrites! I'm writing on behalf of the North American hub research committee to see if you would be interested in participating in a one hour focus group. During the session, we will discuss how a potential hub could support Commons contributors by providing services such as professional development and grant support. Our research phase is ending very soon (12/31). I apologize for the short notice. If there's any chance you can join us for a meeting on 12/20 @ 1pm ET, please respond to Ariel.Cetrone at wikidc.org. Thanks for considering -Ariel Cetrone (WMDC) (talk) 18:31, 18 December 2023 (UTC)

Hi Ariel Cetrone (WMDC). Thanks for the invitation. I wasn't able to make this one, but would be interested in the future. Thanks — Rhododendrites ^talk |  14:34, 21 December 2023 (UTC)
