Commons:Wiki Loves Monuments in India

Hi, Bunch of pages related to "Wiki Loves Monuments in India" landed in Category:Pages with script errors. They seem to be too large and time out before fully loading. Can you split them up somehow, or simplify them? --Jarekt (talk) 13:55, 7 April 2022 (UTC)

@Jarekt: , thanks for pointing that out. I will think of some criteria to split the tables. Give me few days. -- Bodhisattwa (talk) 14:02, 7 April 2022 (UTC)
Sure no problem. I am just trying to clean up Category:Pages with script errors as this category is great for finding actual software errors that need to be fixed. --Jarekt (talk) 14:06, 7 April 2022 (UTC)
Bodhisattwa, I fixed the errors that were landing the pages in Category:Pages with script errors by adding "limit 300" to the SPARQL queries. If in the future you would like to see all the rows please break the lists into pages and use SPARQL's LIMIT and OFFSET commands. --Jarekt (talk) 15:02, 5 May 2022 (UTC)

Hello :Bodhisattwa, When moving files please fill out the reason rationale as neither myself or the Communty are mind readers:), Could I ask why you have moved the files? Thanks, –Davey2010Talk 21:33, 18 April 2022 (UTC)

You are right, I should have given the reason to rename these files. These files were renamed as per Rationale 2 i.e. changing the file name to what it is. The files are Bengali books with Bengali titles and they are included on Bengali Wikisource only if it has the correct Bengali title. These files were uploaded en masse once but are regularly maintained by Bengali Wikisource community to correct the title and improve its metadata. -- Bodhisattwa (talk) 01:47, 19 April 2022 (UTC)

Translations

Hi Bodhi,

I've been looking into setting up first translations for the WLM pages. Could you maybe check the tags I set up in Commons:Wiki Loves Monuments 2022, and mark them for translation if they are correct? I am somewhat familiair with translations from Meta, but I see there are some differences in templates that are used on Commons. Are there any other things (differences) I need to be aware of? Thanks! Ciell (talk) 10:09, 5 July 2022 (UTC)

Hi @Ciell: , sorry that I got busy with other things. I have marked this page for translation. It was perfect from your side. I have marked translation tag for the menu subpage too. Please let me know which other pages are finished from your side and I will mark those for translation. -- Bodhisattwa (talk) 16:36, 5 July 2022 (UTC)
Great, thanks!
I have tested this with the Dutch translations now, and it seems the languages are double in the top of the page. Does this look the same for you, would you be able to correct?
And let us start with the translations from that general landing page first:
Commons:Wiki Loves Monuments/Help desk seems already to have translations in the template.
And after this maybe the subpages of Commons:Wiki Loves Monuments 2022/Organise, they are essential for the teams I think. Can you agree? Ciell (talk) 18:35, 5 July 2022 (UTC)
@Ciell: . I have corrected the double language tag and marking translations for pages which you have already added translation tags.

Template:WLM India Wikidata ID

I noticed what I was thought was a problem with your coding at Template:WLM India Wikidata ID and brought it up Commons:Village_pump#Template:WLM_India_Wikidata_ID. -- Ricky81682 (talk) 22:49, 12 July 2022 (UTC)

Quick update on behalf of the Commons Photographers User Group

Dear member of the Commons Photographers User Group,

I hope you're well and enjoy taking photos for Wikimedia Commons. Here are a couple of quick updates on behalf of our group:

  • Our next virtual meeting will take place on Saturday, August 27. At this point we have two presentations lined up:
  • Suitable! Unsuitable! How to choose photos for a Wikipedia for children, “Klexikon” (Ziko)
  • The aperture and its (less known) effects (XRay)
You can sign up for the event on this page: Virtual Meeting on August 27, 2022. – Given that we can accommodate more speakers, I'll invite you to get in touch with me in case you'd like to present on the 27th. You can reach me any time on my talk page or by sending a quick email.
  • Also, we now have a page for local events organized by members of our user group: Local events 2022. Please check it out and consider organizing an event yourself!
  • And finally, we're planning on offering a Post-processing Workshop on October 8. Please save the date; an events page with more information will go up later.

Thanks for being a member of our group and for sharing your works under a free license. Have fun taking pictures!

All the best, --Frank Schulenburg (talk) 15:23, 18 August 2022 (UTC)

Dear fellow member of the Commons Photographers User Group,

At our last meeting end of August, we talked about getting in touch with the Wikimedia Foundation and offering our help for improving Wikimedia Commons. Today, I invite you to provide your input on a draft open letter to the Foundation. Over the course of the next ten days, we'll further improve the text together, before inviting people to sign it. If you're interested in providing input, please engage in the discussion on the talk page of the draft.

In the meanwhile, I hope you're well and have a great time taking photos! All the best, --Frank Schulenburg (talk) 08:42, 20 September 2022 (UTC)

Translations

Hi Bodhi,

I have a new page for you that needs the translation tags activated: Commons:Wiki Loves Monuments/Documentation/Monuments lists and Wikidata.

Also, a small heads up about the upcoming Commons:Wiki Loves Monuments/DEI research 2022/Final report. This introduction page still needs to be finalized, and I need a Lua Module for the template to work. But it would be great if over the weekend the translations tags for the reports' pages could be activated as well.

Thanks! Ciell (talk) 16:50, 16 September 2022 (UTC)

@Ciell: , I have marked this page for translation. Please let me know when these pages will be finalised, I will mark them for translation as soon as possible. -- Bodhisattwa (talk) 18:27, 16 September 2022 (UTC)
Hi Bodhi, It would be of great help if you could already turn them on for me in Commons:Wiki Loves Monuments DEI research 2022 report navigation. I hope the reason why the nav menu looks so strange when transcluded is the tags for translation have not yet been activated? Ciell (talk) 18:27, 18 September 2022 (UTC)

Hi @Bodhisattwa: Please prepare and mark the "Note section" on this page for translation. Thanks, ─ The Aafī (talk) 09:12, 25 September 2022 (UTC)

Thanks but given what I get here, there is some problem. The heading gets titled in English. ─ The Aafī (talk) 14:02, 25 September 2022 (UTC)
Sorry, that was missed. ✓ Done -- Bodhisattwa (talk) 14:39, 25 September 2022 (UTC)
Thanks. Just asking that has this one been left out intentionally? I feel we should have it translated as well. ─ The Aafī (talk) 08:17, 26 September 2022 (UTC)
@TheAafi: , I am only marking translation for those pages which @Ciell: has requested me to do as this research is coming from her team. -- Bodhisattwa (talk) 08:20, 26 September 2022 (UTC)
My bad, I forgot to ping her. Let's see what she is up to on this. ─ The Aafī (talk) 08:31, 26 September 2022 (UTC)
Hi both,
Yes, this appendix page was intentionally left out of the translations, since all the links collected on the page go to English language pages and there is no real substantial content other than those links on the page. Having only the links translated might falsely suggest to the reader the reading materials linked are also available in other languages. Does that make sense? Ciell (talk) 10:26, 26 September 2022 (UTC)
@Ciell, A little explanation in the brackets that the links collected go in English, may be helpful. I feel awkward while seeing it in the navigation and then untranslated. ─ The Aafī (talk) 11:06, 26 September 2022 (UTC)
Okay, tagged the page. Can you mark the translations Bodhi? Ciell (talk) 16:30, 26 September 2022 (UTC)

Wiki Loves Monuments contest query

Hi, For the contest , will images <5MB be rejected? My JPEGs may be 2-5MB however, my .NEF files have good resolution. I am not able to upload the hi-res images as they are raw files. Pls let me know if my images <5MB will be completely rejected? Or will the jury ask for a copy of hi-res image on a need basis? Kindly guide. Uploaded ~150 images so far :) Darshanavenugopal (talk) 08:54, 29 September 2022 (UTC)

Hi @Darshanavenugopal: , no, images less than 5 MB will not be rejected. There is no criteria related to file size for this competition, however files less than 6 megapixels will be automatically rejected by the tool which will use. The resolution of your files are fine, so, please don't worry and upload your files as tomorrow is the last date of the competition. -- Bodhisattwa (talk) 10:01, 29 September 2022 (UTC)

Sorry, not clear. The tool will reject images <6 MB? Dashki (talk) 10:24, 29 September 2022 (UTC)

Hi @Darshanavenugopal: , as I said before, the tool will reject <6 megapixel (Mpx), not <6 Megabyte (MB). Two are different. Bodhisattwa (talk) 12:03, 29 September 2022 (UTC)

Oh sorry, missed it. Thank you. Dashki (talk) 12:11, 29 September 2022 (UTC)

Question from the CPUG Board

Dear user group member,

I'm writing you to today on behalf of the board of the Commons Photographers User Group. The past year has been a busy one for us. In 2022, we've had more activities than ever before in the history of our group and you'll find an overview on our group's page.

With that being said, 2022 was also a year of learning for the current board members. Most of us hadn't been involved in running the Photographers User Group and we spent quite some time on getting used to our new roles. We all feel it was a steep learning curve.

That's why, at our last board meeting, we decided to ask our members whether they'd be ok with us serving for another year. Extending our board duties to the end of 2023 would allow us to continue the work we've started this year, and to benefit from the knowledge we've built over the past twelve months.

However, in the end, it's up to you and the other members of our group to decide whether such an extension of our board term should be granted. I invite you to voice your opinion on this page:

Commons:Commons Photographers User Group/Board Elections 2022

We'll gather feedback until December 27, and we'll keep you in the loop about the outcomes of this process.

Thanks so much for your ongoing support of our group. I wish you, your family, and your friends all the best.
