Request: Split older versions into new names.
Reason: Three older versions of the file exist in three different locations, all of which can be used for this category (Category:General Motors TDH-5101 (2969)). Restoring the three older versions of the file will help expand the category, and add separate categories to older versions. ----DanTD (talk) 02:23, 3 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I was not sure about the exact mapping that you wanted, so I went ahead and gave the files temporary names. Please use {{Rename}} template to correct the file names.

--Sreejith K (talk) 21:49, 12 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the split, but the infoboxes are all wrong. The caption claiming to be for the bus at Herald Square is actually for Floyd Bennett Field. The one claiming to be outside RCB Ballpark in Staten Island, NY isn't even on Staten Island. It's actually in Manhattan. Evidently, "Number 2" is the one outside RCB Ballpark. ----DanTD (talk) 20:22, 18 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@DAJF:

Done, though the destination filename was changed to File:EF6649 Fuji Hayabusa 20090312.jpg by the script. I don't know Japanese, hopefully you can sort out any errors in the file pages. Revent (talk)

Category:2013 Atlantic Antic in Brooklyn: 1974 Mack TBTA Tow Truck → Category:Atlantic Antic in Brooklyn, Category:1974 Mack TBTA Tow Truck

Request: Split
Reason: The Atlantic Antic is an annual street festival on Atlantic Avenue (New York City) within western Brooklyn, which often includes MTA Buses as well as maintenance vehicles of the former Triborough Bridge and Tunnel Authority, but is not centered exclusively around those vehicles, especially the uniquely designed tow truck which is part of the existing category. ----DanTD (talk) 16:27, 5 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@DanTD: The request you're making isn't really what this page is for, since it's not something that needs admin rights. The type of 'merging and splitting' this request page is for individual page or file histories, which requires the right to delete pages to accomplish. You should just create the two new categories, recategorize the files, and then nominate the old one category for deletion. Alternately, you can bring it up at COM:CFD if you think prior discussion is needed. Revent (talk) 14:16, 7 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Well, if this is something I can do myself, I'll do it. I think I'll split off the truck, and bring up the renaming of Atlantic Antic at CFD. ----DanTD (talk) 14:24, 7 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@DanTD: Either way (creating a new one or renaming the other, or creating two new ones and deleting the old one) works... you should actually be able to rename the category yourself (I don't think it's at all controversial), it's just that you'll either have to then recategorize the files manually or wait for the bot to do it. Whichever method seems easier to you. Revent (talk) 14:35, 7 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

File:Intrare.jpg →

Request: Split File:Intrare.jpg in 2 files:

File:Kirche Oberrußbach.jpg → File:Kirche Oberrußbach interior.jpg

Request: Split
Reason: multiversion file, please put first version to File:Kirche Oberrußbach interior.jpg

--Herzi Pinki (talk) 13:18, 2 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Herzi Pinki: Sreejithk2000 appears to have started this split on April 6, but then undeleted it without actually doing the spilt.... why is not clear from the logs. I would think, however, that it would make more sense to split out the middle version to File:Kirche Oberrußbach exterior.jpg, and keep the existing image at it's current location... it's been at this name for ~5 years, and changing it would be contrary to established practice. Revent^talk 21:25, 19 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Revent: , the file is unused (in the WPs, on Google images). But it is ok to extract the middle version to the name you proposed. --Herzi Pinki (talk) 04:15, 20 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Herzi Pinki: Unfortunately, it's really (seriously) not possible to 'authoritatively' determine off-wiki usage... think paywalled websites, those with a robots.txt preventing crawling, ones embedded in PDFs, or ones from somewhere like India (where language issues cause Google to be really terrible). Splitting off the 'top' version of in image to a different filename is essentially a rename, and so should follow at least the 'reasoning' of the rename policy... it's better to just split out the middle, unless the overwrite was very recent.

I'm just giving this a day or two to make sure that Sreejithk didn't encounter some non-obvious issue when he tried to split this previously... unless he found some kind of problem, I'll do it soonish. Revent^talk 23:56, 20 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

There was something wrong with the history the last time I tried to do the split. I could not do it and I reverted the file back to its old version. Feel free to try the split now. --Sreejith K (talk) 14:31, 25 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Sreejithk2000: I don't think that was a 'history problem' in the sense of being a database glitch, but instead the result of an Upload Wizard bug... my 'theory' would be using the tool to upload multiple images into the 'upload cache' under the same filename, without actually finishing the process to create the file page... hitting the back button at the 'wrong' spot in the process could cause this.

Here is what I did to resolve this (it's a slightly modified version of the split process)

Delete all revisions.
Restore only the file, and not the file page, for the version that needs to be split. (I missed on the first try, lol, and had to 'reboot') This is intentionally creating a zombie file.
Create a file page for the new zombie, by copying the content from the (at this moment, deleted) file page.
Move the file, and restore the 'original'

I think this is acceptable here because both files were from the same source.... same uploader, same date, same camera, same place... so it seems apparent that the uploader did probably intend to upload them both (they uploaded a number of other images as part of the same campaign) under that license.

@Herzi Pinki: Done as described above. Revent^talk 20:34, 26 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

File:Beak Doctor.jpg

Please split both versions, but let the active version bear this filename, because it’s in use. The old version can be named into something like File:Beak Doctor (Thomas Bartholin).jpg, if a name is needed, but it’s actually a duplicate of File:Thomas Bartholin's beak doctor.jpg. — Speravir_Talk – 02:39, 16 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Speravir: I don't think a 'split', truly, is the right thing (since it's a duplicate) but I can merge the underlying copy over to the duplicate, if you want to use it instead (it's cleaner). Revent^talk 00:12, 17 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

No, I’m not interested in using this. And aside of this isn’t it in a worse resolution? But as I’ve seen this I thought these two versions have nothing in common (well, almost nothing), and such occurrings should be splitted. Am I wrong? — Speravir_Talk – 00:32, 17 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The alternative way could be to hide the first version, or am I wrong again? — Speravir_Talk – 00:44, 17 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

They 'should' be split, theoretically, but there is not much point to doing so if you're just going to them delete the split file as a duplicate (you called it one). The resolution is actually about the same, the 'overwritten' one doesn't have the bleedthrough, but also appears to have come from a poorer-quality print. Unless you actually 'want' the overwritten file, for some reason, I really just don't see why it's worth bothering with splitting them (which always risks breaking something, from bugs). Revent^talk 04:06, 17 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

File:Varkud satellite ribozyme secondary.png

I yesterday renamed this file, but noticed later, that the requesting user, who also provided the recent and earlier file versions, shouldn’t have uploaded his/her file versions upon the first file, but as a new one. Hence my question: Is it possible to split this file into …

the first file with history at version Special:PermaLink/195461143 with the old name now being a redirect: File:Varkud satellite (VS) ribozyme.png
all subsequent versions by user Evolution and evolvability starting from Special:PermaLink/211923746 into the active filename File:Varkud satellite ribozyme secondary.png

— Speravir – 18:15, 5 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

File:Pixabay-logo.svg

The file Pixabay-logo.svg has already a split request by Josve05a, but I think it is a bit complex, so it’s better to write something here: As easily can be seen, the latest, active version should be split from all older versions, but for the naming we have to consider the following:

The old versions are the svg equivalent to file Pixabay-logo.png. Hence I would suggest to give after splitting the actual name Pixabay-logo.svg to these versions.
There is already a file Pixabay new logo.svg, which is taken from the website start page. The full logo seen here in the active file version is from Pixabay: About Us/Goodies (there are BTW more files not uploaded yet, including another logo variation). So my suggestion is to move the active version to File:Pixabay new logo full.svg or similar.

— Speravir – 01:55, 18 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Done @Speravir and Josve05a: Old logo moved to Pixabay-logo (old).svg / Pixabay-logo (old).png. Regarding Pixabay new logo.svg, first of all it should be fixed because the validator doesn't even want to validate it (click "valid" link) and XML text is displayed instead of image when I click on it in Firefox. I think this is due to lack of <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?> header. Also I think it should be renamed, e.g. to Pixabay-logo (unofficial).svg because it doesn't seem to be official, current logo due to lack of the camera. --jdx ^Re: 16:11, 18 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Please split only the most recent version of File:Duplessis Autoritratto.jpg; suggested new name: File:Joseph Duplessis, self portrait.jpg. Reason: The active version is clearly distinctive from the old versions and the source attribution is wrong (cf. linked data bank entry). I think the file uses should stay on the old file, because it is better, though smaller. Afterwards I would do necessary fixes. — Speravir – 19:55, 22 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Merging duplicates and potential version delete

There are 4 files with a defunct, but active version, which the uploader then reuploaded as new files. Perhaps the defunct versions should be version deleted, but I’m not sure: Given the other uploads of this user it may have been simple mistakes, but the content of the blank versions looks dubious. These are the files, first the defunct versions, second the version they should be merged into:

Side remark: The given source is wrong (right link is Zwei Gesellschaftsstücke - Antoine Pesne | Bildindex der Kunst & Architektur), and there category related issues, too. I want to fix this afterwards.

@Speravir: Given that the rationale for overwriting the original uploads was 'wrong description', I think it's reasonable to consider these to be uploader requests for deletion... I don't think merging them would server any useful purpose. Someone who speaks German might explain how to request renaming. - Revent^talk 22:52, 19 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, Revent, I can live with this solution. There’s no need for renaming, I only thought, it would be better to have the now deleted versions as redirects (3 of the files are actually not wrong). — Speravir – 23:01, 19 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Speravir: I will not object if you create redirects... but a merge is kind of an involved and risky way to make one. :) - Revent^talk 23:16, 19 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I decided to not create redirections, the files have not been not in use, and it’s not that important – and the first now red one is actually ambiguous. — Speravir – 21:54, 23 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

File:Pressoir de La Coudira à Pregny-Chambésy.jpg

The uploader requested file renaming (to an existing filename btw, which is a redirect), but in my eyes the versions should be split.

Old version: keep as File:Pressoir de La Coudira à Pregny-Chambésy.jpg.
Recent version to be split: File:Chemin de Valérie à Pregny-Chambésy.jpg. Note, that this is a redirect to this file in the moment!

File:NYC Transit Authority Flxible 53102-6-1 7340.jpg

Request: Split
Reason: Multiple Overwrites.

Six pictures of the same bus in six separate locations in Manhattan. The current version should be kept as File:NYC Transit Authority Flxible 53102-6-1 7340.jpg, while the older versions should be split and renamed as follows;

Original version: File:NYCTA Flxible 53102-6-1 7340; M50 at Pier 83.jpg
Second Version: File:NYCTA Flxible 53102-6-1 7340; East side M34.jpg
Third Version: File:NYCTA Flxible 53102-6-1 7340; M34 Driver's Side.jpg
Fourth Version: File:NYCTA Flxible 53102-6-1 7340; M34 at Herald Square.jpg
Fifth Version: File:NYCTA Flxible 53102-6-1 7340; M50 at 12th Street and 43rd Avenue.jpg

The descriptions for each version can be found in the history itself, with the exception of the fourth version, which can receive a new description. A new category for all six images named Category:Flxible 53102-6-1; NYCTA (7340) will be created. ----DanTD (talk) 20:10, 9 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

File:MTA Long Island Bus Orion VII Next Generation bus.jpg

Request: Split
Reason: Overwrite

Previous versions of this image are almost entirely in various locations in Nassau County, New York. All five version are the same make and model of bus, but not the same fleet number. The current version (File:MTA Long Island Bus Orion VII Next Generation bus.jpg;) which is in Amityville, in Suffolk County, New York should be kept in tact. Older versions should be named as follows;

Original version; File:MTA Long Island Bus Orion VII NG N17 Rockville Centre.jpg
Second version; File:MTA Long Island Bus Orion VII NG N35 Nassau Community College.jpg
Third version; File:MTA Long Island Bus Orion VII NG N51 on Hewlett Ave and NY 27 Merrick.jpg
Fourth version; File:MTA Long Island Bus Orion VII NG N21 on the North Shore.jpg

The first three older versions have separate descriptions fitting each version. The fourth version never had a change in the description, and could be anywhere between Flushing Main Street (LIRR station) in the NYC Borough of Queens and Glen Cove, New York, which is in Nassau County, NY. This picture was taken in the days before the N21 route was truncated from it's previous western terminus with Flushing Main Street LIRR station to the current western terminus at Great Neck (LIRR station). A new description for the fourth version will be required. --DanTD (talk) 14:49, 15 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

A new category (Category:General Motors TDH-5303A (8466)) is being prepared for all three images of the bus, plus a fourth image that has nothing to do with the overwrite. The only issue is that the second and third versions have the same description, but that description appears to apply more towards the second version. I have preserved earlier descriptions in the event that the correct ones are lost, as in an earlier split request. ----DanTD (talk) 13:20, 15 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

File:MTA (New York) MetroCard Sales van.jpg → File:MTA MetroCard Van in Washington Heights, Manhattan.jpg

Request: Split off original onto new name.
Reason: Overwrite

Previous version of this is a different make and model of truck, and is in a different part of New York City. Keep the existing image and split off old version with a new name, specifically File:MTA MetroCard Van in Washington Heights, Manhattan.jpg.

File:NYC Transit MetroCard bus 8319.jpg → File:NYC Transit MetroCard bus 8319 in Starrett City, Brooklyn.jpg

Request: Split off original onto new name.
Reason: Overwrite

Previous version of this is in a different location within Southeastern Brooklyn, specifically Pennsylvania and Schroeders Avenues in Starrett City. Split off old version, and use it's presence in Starrett City as part of the name. specifically File:NYC Transit MetroCard bus 8319 in Starrett City, Brooklyn.jpg. Current version should keep the existing name. I have preserved the earlier description in the event that the correct one is lost, as in my previous split request. Note that both versions are of the same manufacturer, model, and fleet number of bus, and both versions will gain the category MetroCard Vending vehicles. ----DanTD (talk) 23:47, 24 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Reason: Overwrite

Previous versions of this image are at various locations on the Bx12 in the Bronx, whereas the current version of this file (File:MTA New York City Bus Nova Bus LFSA SBS.jpg) is on the M15 in South Ferry, Manhattan.

en:File:Cesare Maria De Vecchi.jpg → it:File:Cesare Maria De Vecchi.jpg

Request: Merge
Reason: Reason: These two photos share the same URL, however one of them is from the Italian Wikipedia page while the other is from the English one. The english one was created earlier this year and is a crop out of Cesare from the march on rome, and is not a portrait let alone an official portrait of him. I noticed that the Italian wikipedia uses his official portrait, which was uploaded to the site in 2014, and even has the same URL as the english one. Ive been trying to work this out with 4nn1l2 and after much talk he has decided that It would make sense for the English Wikipedia to use the official portrait. So i am making this request to finalize that and finally change the URL and picture to the right one.

I know that we simply revert overwritten files and ask the user to upload the image as a new file under a new name according to COM:OVERWRITE. But I also think we should be flexible and consider some exceptional cases. The first version of File:Cesare Maria De Vecchi.jpg has been uploaded on 20 February 2018 which is not very old. On the other hand, it:File:Cesare Maria De Vecchi.jpg has been uploaded to the Italian Wikipedia on 23 March 2014. This file could have been transferred to Wikimedia Commons earlier. Alas, that this did not happen. Instead, a low-quality image was uploaded to Wikimedia Commons. The portrait is of higher quality and better suits the encyclopedia, so I think it deserves the simple and natural filename of Cesare Maria De Vecchi.jpg. We can rename the 1922 photo of March on Rome to something like File:Cesare Maria De Vecchi, March on Rome 1922.jpg. 4nn1l2 (talk) 07:30, 19 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

File:- panoramio (2965).jpg → File:Undetermined Beach in Crimea; August 2010

Request: Split and rename original version.
Reason: Overwritten files:
Evidently User:Panoramio upload bot uploaded two files with the same bad name and no description for either version. Despite the lack of a description, the image infobox is clearly better suited for the first version. This version by somebody named "Kailito" is at some beach in Crimea and was taken on August 23, 2010, as evidence suggests in the archive of the original photographer's Panoramio page . The second version which was taken on June 2, 2010, is by User:Idawriter, and is of an intersection containing a Turkey Hill gas station and convenience store, somewhere in Pennsylvania, which you can tell by the small signs across from this gas station (the ones with "SR 222/310" pointing one way and "SR 222/300" pointing another). In time, both versions should get a proper name, but since the one from Pennsylvania has less info than the one from the Crimean coastline, the original version should be split off and the current one should keep the bad name and the replacement infobox that already exists in the file history. --DanTD (talk) 03:52, 14 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The suggested file name is invalid, a valid one would be File:Undetermined Beach in Crimea, August 2010 - panoramio.jpg (the panoramio part is usually kept).
Info From the upload commentary you can see that the active file information is for the overwritten file. With reverse image search you can find some uses of the newer file version, all for places in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. I found 5 different pages on tripmondo.com where the image is embedded, but more important is they provide there geo coordinates according to which the petrol/gas station is in 39°53′41″N 76°10′18″W / 39.8948°N 76.1718°W / 39.8948; -76.1718 which is apparently in Quarryville, PA, crossing of West State Street with West 4th Street (in Lancaster County) – and Google Street View confirmed this.
So a suitable name for the newer image could be File:Gas station in Quarryville, PA - panoramio.jpg. — Speravir – 23:13, 16 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Speravir: I suggest File:TurkeyHill gas station in Quarryville, PA - panoramio.jpg. — Jeff G. ツ_{please ping or talk to me} 06:50, 17 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I cannot argue with that, because I have no clue, but, yes, Turkey Hill and TurkeyHill can be read in Google Maps. — Speravir – 22:11, 17 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I wouldn't argue with Jeff G.'s suggestion for the latter one either. ----DanTD (talk) 14:09, 18 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

BTW, I just found out this gas station is at the west end of the overlap with U.S. Route 222 in Pennsylvania and Pennsylvania Route 372. So that's more categories for the newer version. ----DanTD (talk) 14:25, 18 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

UPDATE: I also found another image from Quarryville, Pennsylvania overlapping a Crimean Beach taken by the same photographer. Good thing I didn't rename that one yet, but I'm considering a new name for that duplicate. ----DanTD (talk) 18:00, 18 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Now can you restore the previous version, so I can give it the proper name? ----DanTD (talk) 18:57, 18 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Done The beach is under File:Undetermined Beach in Crimea, August 2010 - panoramio 46383447.jpg and the gas station under File:TurkeyHill gas station in Quarryville, PA - panoramio.jpg. Now I will look at the next file. --jdx ^Re: 19:24, 18 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. I was going to start a whole new thread on that one, but I'd like to recommend the name File:PA 372 at NE Corner of Lime Street; Quarryville, PA - panoramio.jpg for the new version. I've got Idawriter's version at this link if you'd like. ----DanTD (talk) 19:29, 18 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

(Edit conflict) @DanTD: Please request splitting of the new finding, as well. Apparently also more images in this range should be checked. @Jdx: After the new finding probably the beach image should get number 1, so the second could get no. 2, what do you think? — Speravir – 19:40, 18 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, I considered the previous numbers for the Crimean beachfront. The original request could probably get File:Undetermined Beach in Crimea, August 2010 - panoramio (2965).jpg, and the one that hasn't been split yet might be better off with File:Undetermined Beach in Crimea, August 2010 - panoramio (2961).jpg. If there are that many unidentified beach scenes from Crimea, we may have a pretty serious problem. ----DanTD (talk) 19:46, 18 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Done The second beach is under File:Undetermined Beach in Crimea, August 2010 - panoramio 46383431.jpg, the first ends with 46383447 – I have used full Panoramio's IDs. --jdx ^Re: 20:08, 18 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
