Thank you
[edit]Thank you for your scripting help, it will makes things much faster for me, and hopefully I can work the backlog faster. I'm new to the project and you and Rjd are helping me a great deal. Thank you! :) NonvocalScream (talk) 02:51, 18 August 2008 (UTC)
easyblock.js
[edit]Good day Animum, I was wondering if you could make the script available here if you can. Would be nice of you! Regards, --Kanonkas(talk) 13:17, 18 August 2008 (UTC)
Flickr review
[edit]Good day. As a result of your request at Commons talk:Flickr images/reviewers, I have added you to the reviewers list. Please see the instructions at Commons:Flickr images/reviewers and add {{User trusted}} to your userpage. You can ask me if you need any help. Best regards, --Kanonkas(talk) 15:14, 18 August 2008 (UTC)
- I seem to get an error when trying to do this here, I tried to subst it but that didn't work, would be nice if you could take a look. Regards, --Kanonkas(talk) 16:41, 19 August 2008 (UTC)
- Hmm, odd. It appeared to work for me when I tested it (of course, I could only test the comments it gave!). Was the block itself at least successful? —Animum (talk) 00:00, 20 August 2008 (UTC)
- I don't have the extra tab so I can't know that, sorry. --Kanonkas(talk) 13:56, 20 August 2008 (UTC)
- I think I found what was wrong - try it now. —Animum (talk) 00:56, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
- Thanks now I can see the block tab, but when trying to block someone I'm getting an error saying I should block it manually, any help? --Kanonkas(talk) 17:13, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
- Where exactly did this error occur? —Animum (talk) 19:30, 23 August 2008 (UTC)

The script
[edit]A problem here - the script doesn't stay on the image page long enough to save the {{Copyvio}} template onto the page, thus it is not tagged. It definitely notifies the user, though. Any way to make it stop to save the data? weburiedoursecretsinthegarden 22:50, 26 August 2008 (UTC)
- Replace:
location.href = wgScript + "?title=User_talk:" + user + "&action=edit©vionotify=1©vio=" + wgPageName;
- With:
if(typeof(user) != 'undefined') window.setTimeout(function() { location.href = wgScript + "?title=User_talk:" + user + "&action=edit©vionotify=1©vio=" + wgPageName; }, 1000);
...And everything should be fine. —Animum (talk) 01:06, 28 August 2008 (UTC)
- Thanks a bunch, animum :) weburiedoursecretsinthegarden 22:24, 28 August 2008 (UTC)
- No problem. —Animum (talk) 21:39, 29 August 2008 (UTC)
There seems to be a problem regarding the description and/or licensing of this particular file. It has been found that you've added in the image's description only a Template that's not a license and although it provides useful informations about the image, it's not a valid license. Could you please resolve this problem, adding the license in the image linked above? You can edit the description page and change the text. Uploading a new version of the file does not change the description of the file. This page may give you more hints on which license to choose. Thank you.

Please tag your images
[edit]
Thank you for providing images to Wikimedia Commons. Please keep in mind that images and other files on Commons must be under a free license and should be useful to the Wikimedia projects. To allow others to use your files, some additional information must be given on the description page. Most importantly:
- Describe what it is about in a short sentence. (What does the image show?)
- State the author and the date of creation. If you made it yourself, say so explicitly. If it is from another Wikimedia user, link to the person's local user page. Best to use CommonsHelper.
- If you did not create the file yourself, state the source you got it from.
- Add a copyright tag - images without an appropriate license tag will be deleted.
- Add the image to one or more gallery pages and/or appropriate categories, so it can be found by others. To find out where an image belongs, you can use CommonsSense.
If you copied the file from another wiki, please copy all information given there and say who uploaded it to that wiki. Use CommonsHelper.
It is recommended to use Template:Information to put that information on the description page. Have a look at Template talk:Information for details of the use of this template.
You can edit the description page and change the text. Uploading a new version of the file does not change the description of the file.
Please add as much information as possible. If there is not sufficient information, the file may have to be deleted. For more information, follow the Commons:First steps guide. If you need help or have questions, please ask at the Help desk.
Thank you. Sdrtirs (talk) 02:12, 8 September 2008 (UTC)
Tip: Categorizing images
[edit]
Thanks a lot for contributing to the Wikimedia Commons! Here's a tip to make your uploads more useful: Why not add some categories to describe them? This will help more people to find and use them.
Here's how:
1) If you're using the UploadWizard, you can add categories to each file when you describe it. Just click "more options" for the file and add the categories which make sense:
2) You can also pick the file from your list of uploads, edit the file description page, and manually add the category code at the end of the page.
[[Category:Category name]]
For example, if you are uploading a diagram showing the orbits of comets, you add the following code:
[[Category:Astronomical diagrams]]
[[Category:Comets]]
This will make the diagram show up in the categories "Astronomical diagrams" and "Comets".
When picking categories, try to choose a specific category ("Astronomical diagrams") over a generic one ("Illustrations").
Thanks again for your uploads! More information about categorization can be found in Commons:Categories, and don't hesitate to leave a note on the help desk.CategorizationBot (talk) 18:00, 30 October 2009 (UTC)

A script in your user namespace may stop working in February 2012
[edit]Hi Animum,
I found the deprecated function akeytt
somewhere in your user-namespace, e.g. Special:MyPage/monobook.js, . It is likely that this will cause JavaScript errors after Commons is updated to MediaWiki 1.19 in February. You can simply remove this function-call as it currently does nothing. If you have a copy of user-messages in your script, you may remove it and instead activate User Messages in your preferences. Please also note that addLink is now natively supported by mw.util.addPortletLink. Thank you.
