Views of the ISS by year

Hi Soumya, I wanted to bring an issue to your attention. I've noticed that you're adding a lot of subcategories to Views of the International Space Station in 2021 and similar "in year" categories, and removing individual images. I understand the idea of including these subcategories, but the problem is the vast majority of images in those subcategories are not displaying the ISS in any way, and most of photographed from the station. I simply do not believe having these subcategories present is really a good idea. For these "in year" categories to be useful, they need to focus on images of the station. Otherwise, they really don't serve a point. — Huntster (t @ c) 18:26, 12 February 2022 (UTC)

Thank you. I will look into the problem if I have time to spare. -Soumya-8974 (he) (talk • contribs) 05:18, 5 April 2022 (UTC)

Urban rail transit

I disagree with your recent creation of "urban rail transit" categories. Several of the modes you have been including are not inherently urban in nature, and it is misleading to categorize them as such. For example, several countries have had extensive rural and interurban tram systems. Pi.1415926535 (talk) 18:03, 18 May 2022 (UTC)

It is true, but I have created the category to categorise the different rail transport systems used in Indian cities and beyond, and for the transport modes that are not inherently urban in nature, you should only include the routes within an urban area. Thank you and happy editing. Sbb1413 (he) (talk • contribs) 07:38, 19 May 2022 (UTC)

বাংলা উইকিপিডিয়াকে সাহায্য করার আবেদন

দাদা, আপনি তো বাঙালি। বাংলা উইকিপিডিয়াকে সাহায্য করার জন্য আপনার প্রতি আবেদন রইল। পশ্চিমবঙ্গ থেকে হাতেগোনা ৫-৬ জন বাঙালি বাংলা উইকিপিডিয়ায় অবদান রাখেন। আর সামগ্রিকভাবে ২০-৩০ জন বাঙালি নিয়মিত অবদান রাখেন, যা প্রয়োজনের তুলনায় অতি সামান্য। যার ধরুন বাংলা উইকিপিডিয়া অনেক পিছনে পড়ে আছে। বাংলা উইকিপিডিয়ায় সম্পাদনা করে বাংলা উইকিপিডিয়াকে সাহায্য করুন দাদা। আফতাবুজ্জামান (talk) 14:31, 21 May 2022 (UTC)

আফতাবুজ্জামান, দেখুন আমি এই কমন্সেই (Commons) ব্যাস্ত এবং ২০২১ সাল থেকেই উইকিপিডিয়ার প্রতি আমার আগ্রহ ক্রমশ হারিয়ে গেছে। তবুও দেখছি আমি বাংলা উইকিপিডিয়াকে কী করে সাহায্য করতে পারি। ধন্যবাদ। Sbb1413 (he) (talk • contribs) 16:33, 21 May 2022 (UTC)

চেষ্টা করুন, কেবল আশা দিবেন না দাদা :( ইংরেজি ও বাংলা উইকিপিডিয়া দুইটি ভিন্ন। ইংরেজিতে কাজ করার মানুষের অভাব নেই, কিন্তু বাংলায় বড় অভাব। বাংলা উইকিপিডিয়ায় ভারত বাদ দেই, পশ্চিমবঙ্গের বিভিন্ন নিবন্ধ ঘুরে ইংরেজি উইকিপিডিয়ার সাথে তুলনা করলেই দেখবেন তথ্যের কত অভাব। ছোট উদা: এই নিবন্ধগুলো ২০১০ সালে তৈরি, এগুলোর বাংলাতে ঐ অবস্থায় পড়ে আছে, অন্যদিকে ইংরেজিতে এগুলো এখন কত সমৃদ্ধ। আফতাবুজ্জামান (talk) 23:32, 21 May 2022 (UTC)

Commons:Categories for discussion/2016/01/Category:Skylines by city

Hi! I noticed that you closed this category discussion, but I looked in Category:Skylines by city and it looks like the vast majority of the categories are still using the old names. Did you do something to get the renaming process started? – BMacZero (🗩) 02:12, 2 June 2022 (UTC)

I can't get enough free time to do all the renamings in short time due to the sheer number of categories, so it may take some time to complete the renamings. Please be patient. Sbb1413 (he) (talk • contribs) 04:40, 2 June 2022 (UTC)

Updation

Hi, @Sbb1413 you were the last updater of this File:Space station size comparison.svg (with @Evolution and evolvability as he created this). can you update this as wentian has docked to the core module (in final configuration means on starboard side port of the tianhe module, as the relocation will be done in 1 month only in september).

@Sbb1413 now we need to add the mengtian module. Btw length of wentian and mengtian solar arrays is 55m not 35m as per our comparison. Chinakpradhan (talk) 02:32, 5 November 2022 (UTC)

Css is complete now but css in our diagram our diagram is not up to the mark along with lack of iss updates @T.Shafee(Evo﹠Evo) as per the 3 my latest comments in this discussion Chinakpradhan (talk) 02:47, 5 November 2022 (UTC)

Hi! I noticed your map on Reddit. I think you should update it and include another colour for detentions of Wikipedia editors. That would include Saudi Arabia, France and Belarus.

File:Space station size comparison.svg Soyuz 4/5?

Hey there, just wondering why you added Soyuz 4/5 to File:Space station size comparison.svg? I don't see anything on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_space_stations indicating that they're considered a space station, so I'm curious how you made that decision. Would Apollo-Soyuz count as a station? Dr-spangle (talk) 14:53, 19 January 2023 (UTC)

Hi,

I have now seen your revert on [:File:European_Spaces.svg], stating "do not overwrite existing map, please upload separately.". Please understand I have had overwritten this map in an effort to provide a better SVG representation of the PNG version with the same name.

Would you still like that I upload this map separately? If so, please let me know, and I will. I will also revert [:File:European_Spaces.svg] back to your map and description, or you can so if you prefer. My apologies. XA1dUXvugi (talk) 14:38, 5 March 2023 (UTC)

China Dynasties.gif

On https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:China_Dynasties.gif, the 15th frame, labeled "Southern and Northern Dynasties, 480", should instead be labeled "Southern and Northern Dynasties, 560", based on the infobox at the top of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Northern_and_Southern_dynasties. (Frame 13 is also labeled, correctly, "Southern and Northern Dynasties, 480". I think that is what caused the confusion.)

Rolling stock vs. Rail vehicles

You have moved the Category:Rail vehicles of the Darjeeling Himalayan Railway to Category:Darjeeling Himalayan Railway rolling stock. This is not a good idea because it had been decided to generally use the term "rail vehicles" instead of "rolling stock", because the latter is a very technical term and Wiki commons categories should be widely understood. See the main category Category:Rail vehicles -- Gürbetaler (talk) 21:44, 15 April 2023 (UTC)

I thought the previous name was too wordy and renamed it. There are several categories that use "rolling stock" in Rail vehicles by operator. Sbb1413 (he) (talk • contribs) 02:40, 16 April 2023 (UTC)

Those that still carry the name "... rolling stock" haven't been renamed yet...-- Gürbetaler (talk) 20:11, 24 April 2023 (UTC)

I'm gradually renaming certain instances of "rolling stock" to "rail vehicles" or similar. For now, I'm doing this related to India and will do it for other countries (especially the States) soon. Sbb1413 (he) (talk • contribs) 04:23, 25 April 2023 (UTC)

Salt Lake and Bidhannagar

Hi, Salt Lake is a neighbourhood of Bidhannagar as per current administrative division. Please stop merging them together. -- Bodhisattwa (talk) 12:18, 30 April 2023 (UTC)

Here is the official map of Bidhannagar to support that Salt Lake is just a part of Bidhannagar. Please stop changing all the categories and data everywhere before checking the facts. -- Bodhisattwa (talk) 12:22, 30 April 2023 (UTC)

Salt Lake is a part of the "Bidhannagar Municipal Corporation" (not just "Bidhannagar") and the official website always uses "Bidhannagar Municipal Corporation" or BMC to refer to the municipal corporation. At About BMC, the website says, "The original township was called Salt Lake, which was later renamed as Bidhannagar", implying that the two terms are synonymous. Various news publications use "Bidhannagar" and "Salt Lake" synonymously. Sbb1413 (he) (talk • contribs) 12:30, 30 April 2023 (UTC)

Previously, before 2015, yes, but Bidhannagar is not synonymous with Salt Lake only since 2015. It has encompassed a lot more area than before. The data around Wikidata and the categories on Wikimedia Commons are built on the current administrative division, so there is no point changing back to the pre-2015 status. Also, Bidhannagar is not in Kolkata, its in North 24 Parganas, so adding categories to buildings in Kolkata does not make sense. Please be assured, I have spent significant amount of time and energy to properly categorise and datafy these entities. I request to assume good faith to my edits and revert them back as it was. -- Bodhisattwa (talk) 12:35, 30 April 2023 (UTC)

I'm not going to discuss whether we should put "x in Bidhannagar" as part of "x in Kolkata".

The data around Wikidata and the categories on Wikimedia Commons are built on the current administrative division, so there is no point changing back to the pre-2015 status.

The only thing inconsistent here is the OpenStreetMap area. Anyway, I've changed my mind and keep the categorisation as it is. By the way, it is me that has built "the data around Wikidata and the categories on Wikimedia Commons" "on the current administrative division". Sbb1413 (he) (talk • contribs) 12:46, 30 April 2023 (UTC)

Hello. I just wanted to let you know that I have granted autopatrol rights to your account; the reason for this is that I believe you are sufficiently trustworthy and experienced to have your contributions automatically marked as "reviewed". This has no effect on your editing, it is simply intended to make it easier for users that are monitoring Recent changes or Recent uploads to find unproductive edits amidst the productive ones like yours. In addition, the Flickr upload feature and an increased number of batch-uploads in UploadWizard, uploading of freely licensed MP3 files, overwriting files uploaded by others and an increased limit for page renames per minute are now available to you.

Banks

Was there any discussion of this move? Seems ill-advised to me: we'll probably get a lot of confusion with individual bank buildings. - Jmabel ! talk 16:12, 25 June 2023 (UTC)

Oh, forgot to cite the relevant CFD. The move is based on my category scheme planned at Commons:Categories for discussion/2019/05/Category:Banks by country. As I have clarified in Banks, banks refer to the banking companies, while bank branches and bank buildings have separate categories. Sbb1413 (he) (talk • contribs) 16:16, 25 June 2023 (UTC)
