Request

Hi sir, can you please review my last uploads. this is my first time uploading from YouTube and i want to make sure i didn't make any mistake, Thank you.--Mojackjutaily (talk) 15:51, 18 December 2017 (UTC)

I checked one of your uploads from YouTube but it seems that all the others have already been checked by another reviewer Ibrahim.ID. De728631 (talk) 18:44, 29 December 2017 (UTC)

Not all of them, here the one he didn't check, 1 - 2 - 3 - 4. Do i have to ask reviewer to check my work every time i upload?. usually when i upload from Flicker, a bot automatically confirmed if it licensed under the terms.--Mojackjutaily (talk) 00:15, 31 December 2017 (UTC)

If you are uploading from YouTube, it is recommended that you use the {{LicenseReview}} template to have you uploads checked. Generally, when it is obvious that there is a free licence on the source page, you don't need to have your uploads checked, but if you have to click around or search the source website in order to find the licence statement, then it is a good idea to get a review for the upload.

Request

Cany put in the Wikipedia articles the up to date file File:DEC31 World Time Zones.png whose title is not restricted according to a certain year, because many Wikipedia articles are using files that are restricted to a certain year and therefore are obsolete (unless these articles indicate the year of these files).

Here are the files that need to be replaced with the above mentioned file:

The reason I requested this because I live in Turkey, and Wikipedia is completely banned and blocked in Turkey by the Turkish government. If I lived in another country I could have replaced these files myself.

Thank you.

31.200.22.112 15:49, 1 January 2018 (UTC)

The pictures that are used on any Wikipedia version need to be discussed at that respective Wikipedia before they get replaced. So if a Wikipedia article is using an obsolete image file, it is the local community's task to replace the file. They may even decided not to do this, so I would rather not go ahead and single-handedly replace all these images. De728631 (talk) 15:42, 3 January 2018 (UTC)

Files Deleted, although it was decided to be kept

Hello, could you help me please: a few days ago, all of my pictures have been deleted, although it was decided to be kept: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Deletion_requests/Files_uploaded_by_Sunshine76

What went wrong?

Thank you, Claudia

@Sunshine76: Hallo Claudia, so wie es aussieht, wurden diese Bilder nach der Löschdiskussion nicht durch unser OTRS-Email-Team als "freigegeben" markiert. Dementsprechend sind sie nach einer Standardfrist doch gelöscht worden. Ich habe jetzt O.Koslowski kontaktiert, der das Email-Ticket damals bearbeitet hat. De728631 (talk) 15:37, 3 January 2018 (UTC)

Vielen lieben Dank! Ich weiß gar nicht, wen ich aller angeschrieben habe und du bist der einzige, der jetzt hilft! Muss ich dann die Bilder auf der entsprechenden Seite wieder neu verlinken? Noch eine kurze Frage zu Video-Uploads: ich habe in meinem Ticket ganz unten im Text auch gefragt, ob es das richtige Formular ist, das Gert Haussner euch schicken muss für die Freigabe seiner Gitarren-Improviation während eines Konzertes, doch leider habe ich darauf nie eine Antwort erhalten und das Video ist natürlich jetzt auch gelöscht. Genügt auch eine Mail von Gert Haussner, dass er die Veröffentlichung gestattet?

Herzlichen Dank und glg aus Wien, Claudia Sunshine76 (talk) 09:22, 4 January 2018 (UTC)

Hmm, das solltest du besser auf der OTRS-Diskussionseite fragen. Die können dann gleich in dein Ticket reinschauen, und entscheiden, ob und was da noch fehlt. Ich bin zwar Admin, aber die OTRS-Emails kann ich trotzdem nicht einsehen, weil die eine extra hohe Zugriffsberechtigung haben. Beste Grüße zurück, De728631 (talk) 14:43, 6 January 2018 (UTC)

Jetzt habe ich die Frage erst richtig verstanden... Ja, das Email-Formular gilt auch für Videos, wenn Herr Haussner eigene Stücke spielt. Wenn er aber auf Melodien und Texten von anderen Künstlern improvisiert, dann könnte das schwierig werden, weil wir dann auch die Freigabe des Originalkomponisten brauchen. De728631 (talk) 15:08, 6 January 2018 (UTC)

Alles klar, jetzt kenn ich mich aus und herzlichen Dank für Alles! Sunshine76 (talk) 05:52, 8 January 2018 (UTC)

Update for the File:Daylight saving time in Asia.svg

Hello.

If you know how to edit and update SVG files, could you update the File:Daylight saving time in Asia.svg by coloring the whole of Cyprus in blue (because Northern Cyprus started to use DST again in November, after abolishing it for one year)? Could you also color all the islands of Russia, Japan and the Philippines in orange and all the islands of Indonesia in red (because they have been forgotten and appear in gray)? I don't know how to edit and upload SVG files myself. Source: https://www.timeanddate.com/news/time/

Kindest regards.

Maphobbyist (talk) 00:15, 5 January 2018 (UTC)

Done. That map needed a general overhaul anyway, and the recent change in Northern Cyprus now made the entire island a DST zone. De728631 (talk) 16:06, 6 January 2018 (UTC)

Thank you for your contribution. Maphobbyist (talk) 17:54, 6 January 2018 (UTC)

Hello. Forgive my impertinence, but all the Asian islands of Russia (east to the large Novaya Zemlya archipelago which is considered in Europe) on its north coast still appear in gray and need to be colored in orange. Can you color them please? Kindest regards. Maphobbyist (talk) 22:33, 8 January 2018 (UTC)

No problem, I've fixed this too. Since the continental European part of Russia (and Turkey for that matter) is also coloured I just coloured all the Russian islands. De728631 (talk) 16:53, 10 January 2018 (UTC)

Thank you. Maphobbyist (talk) 22:36, 10 January 2018 (UTC)

Update requests for File:Metrication by year map.svg and File:World metrication.svg.

Hello.

Can you color all the ex-Soviet states in the same color as Russia (except the Baltic states and Moldova which were annexed by the Soviet Union in 1940 and were metricated in different years and which also need to be colored according to the year of metrication), because they were metricated in 1925 at the same time when they were part of the Soviet Union? Moldova was metricated in 1918 when it became part of Romania which was metricated in 1864, Estonia was metricated in 1929. I have not found the years of metrication for Latvia and Lithuania. Namibia needs to be colored the same as South Africa becasue it was metricated simultaneously with South Africa in 1971 when it was under its administration until 1990. South Sudan which is still missing in both maps needs to be included, and colored the same as Sudan, because it was metricated in 1954 when it was part of Sudan.

Thank you.

31.200.14.100 01:29, 19 December 2017 (UTC)

I'm sorry but there are so many update request for these maps that they need to be sorted one by one. The best way is to discuss such changes at the file talk page and provide reliable evidence for the year of metrication. De728631 (talk) 18:38, 29 December 2017 (UTC)

Hello.

Here is a source in Russian which I think is credible and which can be translated by a Google translator: http://www.krotov.info/history/11/1/kamenzeva_05.htm

Taking this source into account, can you color the ex-Soviet states (except Moldova and the Baltic states which were annexed in 1940) the same color as Russia, because the metric system was introduced by a decree of the Council of People’s Commissars of the RSFSR (which included the current ex-Soviet states except Moldova and Baltic states) on Sept. 14, 1918? The RSFSR was renamed the USSR in 1923 and the RSFSR became one of its members as a Union Republic. It was made mandatory for the USSR by a resolution of the Council of People’s Commissars of the USSR on July 21, 1925. And on April 16, 1927 other systems of measurements were prohibited for parallel usage, and the metric system became the sole system of measurement. When the metric reform in the USSR was completed, the Commission was abolished by the Decree of the Council of People's Commissars on March 15, 1928

Sources, let alone credible ones, are very difficult to find for individual countries about this topic. If you don't object, can I continue to request on this, if I manage to find any credible source about individual countries?

Thank you.

31.200.9.7 00:41, 6 January 2018 (UTC)

I see, thank you for providing the sources. However, this particular map has a very intricate colourbar, and I don't know how to pick the right shade of colour for the respective Baltic countries. I think your request would better be made at Commons:Graphic Lab/Map workshop where there are more experts around. De728631 (talk) 16:14, 6 January 2018 (UTC)

In File:World metrication.svg could you add a color bar, just like a registered user did in File:SI-metrication-world.png and uploaded a new version which he or she obviously copied from File:World metrication.svg? 31.200.22.139 11:15, 27 January 2018 (UTC)

I'm sorry but I don't know how to add this in SVG. De728631 (talk) 12:55, 27 January 2018 (UTC)

I understand. Thank you for your reply. 31.200.22.139 21:47, 27 January 2018 (UTC)

Help request

Hi dear administrator. Owing to some threatening messages I've just received recently. I would like to delete my own personal portrait from wikicommons. It would be nice of you if you do it for me. Thanks. TheStrayDog (talk) 20:35, 19 January 2018 (UTC)

Done I have deleted the image. De728631 (talk) 15:53, 21 January 2018 (UTC)

COM:AN#DR closes

Hi De728631. I saw that you closed COM:AN#DR closes. I'm not saying the discussion shouldn't be closed, but I don't understand the reason you gave for closing it. The DR closes were reverted by Yann, but Fhsig13 then reverted Yann. Jcb then reverted Fhsig13 edits, and warned by them not to do such a thing again. Fhsig13 then began reverting Jcb and received a one week block as a result. An unblock request was subsequently made, but was declined by Magog the Ogre. So, that is where things stand at the moment, and I'm not sure what the connection of any of this is with Commons talk:WikiProject Heraldry. -- Marchjuly (talk) 23:35, 3 February 2018 (UTC)

Hi Marchjuly,

The DRs are not closed, and Fhsig13 is blocked. For me, the issue is closed. What reasons do you want? Regards, Yann (talk) 04:21, 4 February 2018 (UTC)

I was only asking why the close for Commons:Administrators' noticeboard/Archive 67#DR closes by De728631 states "Since this is not an administrative issue,I have referred your request to Commons talk:WikiProject Heraldry." I'm not sure what WikiProject Heraldry has to do with with th AN discussion, Commons:Deletion requests/File:British Columbia Yellowhead Highway 16 3.png or Commons:Deletion requests/File:MSgt3.png. -- Marchjuly (talk) 10:36, 4 February 2018 (UTC)

@Marchjuly: It looks like something got mangled there. Most likely because there was some footer or header template missing at AN during some archiving round. Actually my closing comments were made at the "Massively used coat of arms that is wrong" thread: [1] De728631 (talk) 12:41, 4 February 2018 (UTC)

I have fixed the closing comment in the archives and reposted the "DR closes" discussion at AN so it can be closed regularily. De728631 (talk) 13:04, 4 February 2018 (UTC)

Thanks for checking. -- Marchjuly (talk) 21:29, 4 February 2018 (UTC)

Hello why all images deleted?

Hello, can you please restore all the files? I own 100 percent rights of all pictures. I took them myself. I have previously sent an email with owning rights to wiki.

All these mages have been published before without a free licence, and there is no obvious connection between your account at Wikimedia Commons and these photographs at other websites. E.g. File:Arsi Nami tux.png was published at Flickr with "all rights reserved" by a user called "Arsi Nami Fan Flickr page". In such cases we need a confirmation by email coming from the original photographer. Please see COM:OTRS for instructions. De728631 (talk) 04:53, 8 February 2018 (UTC)

Hello an email was sent with the ticket number : [Ticket#2018020810002062] please restore all the pics asap. Thank you (talk) 05:02, 8 February 2018 (UTC)

Thank you. If a free license has been sent to OTRS, then the image will be restored automatically when and if the e-mail is received, processed, and approved. Note that OTRS, like Commons, is entirely staffed by volunteers, and, also like Commons, is shorthanded, so it may be close to 29 days before the e-mail is processed and the image is restored. De728631 (talk) 05:04, 8 February 2018 (UTC)

How can I upload a temporary profile picture on the page without having it being deleted? 29 days is a long time and a permission was already sent a while ago. Can you please speed this up as the pictures shouldn't have been deleted (talk) 05:37, 8 February 2018 (UTC)

I'm sorry but you will have to wait like all other users at this project. I can't speed this up because these emails are being dealt with by a small team of volunteers with special confidential permissions. The queue there is already long enough, so even if you asked at the Commons:OTRS/Noticeboard‎, you would only be told to be patient. De728631 (talk) 05:43, 8 February 2018 (UTC)

Can you at least help me/ allow me to upload a temporary headshot of Arsi Nami without it being deleted? (talk) 05:47, 8 February 2018 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Easyheartforyou (talk • contribs) 05:47, 8 February 2018 (UTC)

If you sent a permission email already a while ago, why did you not mark the relevant files with {{OTRS pending}} as is explained in the OTRS manual? Honestly, restoring your images right now would be unfair to all other uploaders who are waiting for their permission to be processed. So I'm not going to undelete any files where I don't even have proof that your email ticket is valid for them. As I wrote above, you may try to convince an OTRS agent at their noticeboard to speed things up, but I'm the wrong addressee in this matter. De728631 (talk) 05:55, 8 February 2018 (UTC)

I just uploaded a new one and marked it with {{OTRS pending}} as you stated. I have problems finding a way to add {{OTRS pending}} on the deleted pictures. Do I go to the talk page and click on the file names and add {{OTRS pending}} there? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Easyheartforyou (talk • contribs) 06:30, 8 February 2018 (UTC)

Do not upload any of these images again! Doing so is a serious breach of our policy. They will be undeleted in due time if the permission email is valid. If you keep re-uploading any of these images your account will be blocked. As to the deleted images, you cannot add OTRS pending afterward. They have been deleted and the ticket will be assessed by our email team. So please drop the stick now and wait. De728631 (talk) 06:41, 8 February 2018 (UTC)

Image deletion

Those are free videos at YouTube and do not hold any copyrights. U1Quattro (talk) 05:13, 8 February 2018 (UTC)

No, not at all. Just because they are at YouTube does not mean that these videos are not copyrighted. To the contrary: The "Standard YouTube License" indicated in the video description does not allow any free use of the video without consent from the copyright holder. Please see COM:WHERE#YouTube how to identify YouTube videos with a free licence. De728631 (talk) 05:17, 8 February 2018 (UTC)

Trainpix

I have undone the hiding of the Trainpix bucket category. If you insist on hiding it, I will not revert you twice as you are an administrator. I would instead have to create another bucket category that can stay unhidden as a bucket category with exactly the same contents, though you would probably want to hide that for the same (non-policy) reasons. If you can think of a way of stopping bots unnecessarily flagging the images as having no categories if this bucket category gets hidden, I would appreciate it. Thanks --Fæ (talk) 17:54, 20 February 2018 (UTC)

@Fæ: No problem. I for one though would be happy for the bots flagging all these pics. "Category:Images from somepage" and the like are non-topical categories that do not provide any assistance to a specific search and do not aid navigation as categories should do – which makes them hideable in my book. As to policies, there is no requirement to hide bucket categories, but Commons:HIDDENCAT at least acknowledges it as a common practice. Apart from that, it is a long-standing practice for aircraft and ship categories at least to regard images as "unidentified" as long as the type or, even better, the name haven't been categorised. I'm not going to hide the category again, but I'd appreciate it if you at least added a default Category:Unidentified rail vehicles to your trainpix.org upload script. De728631 (talk) 18:10, 20 February 2018 (UTC)

That particular category would be incorrect as the photographs of trains have very good identification information, most of which I doubt we have specific categories for. The bucket category is already in a topical category. --Fæ (talk) 18:16, 20 February 2018 (UTC)

File:DavidBarton.jpg

The original source - http://bioguide.congress.gov/biosearch/biosearch.asp - I guess you mean this - does not show any image. Or which other source do you mean? --Ju Ta 01:36, 26 February 2018 (UTC)

@JuTa: Nein, ich meinte das, was als Bioguide im Feld "Quelle" angegeben ist. De728631 (talk) 14:05, 26 February 2018 (UTC)

Again on PD-1996

Hi! I was wondering when URAA date applies. For instance, in Italy holds for works created by the Italian Government the Open by Default, i.e. applying by default CC BY license. In this case, URAA date doesn't matter, right? --Ruthven (msg) 09:16, 4 March 2018 (UTC)

@Ruthven: URAA applies only to works that were already in the public domain in their country of origin before 1996, but then got copyrighted retroactively in the US in 1996. So you're right that it has nothing to do with open government data where a free licence has been granted for using this data. De728631 (talk) 15:54, 4 March 2018 (UTC)

Annamaria Parente

Hi, De728631 (talk). I've received an informal authorization from the image owner to use on WikimediaCommon, how can I manage to include it in his wiki page?. Thaks for your support. --Nicola Caione (talk) 21:29, 14 March 2018 (UTC)

@Nicola Caione: Owning a physical copy of the image does not automatically transfer copyright to whoever owns the image. We need a permission sent by email coming directly from the copyright holder. In most cases this is the photographer, but if Mrs Parente has acquired the copyright along with the image we need a verification for this. Please see COM:OTRS for more information. De728631 (talk) 22:46, 15 March 2018 (UTC)

Hi, De728631 (talk), I'll contact the image owner and ask for the written authorization. --Nicola Caione (talk) 11:03, 16 March 2018 (UTC)

@De728631: Hi, De728631 (talk), I've sent the permission request via the release generator found on the COM:OTRS web page. I hope now the copyright issue is solved and soon the image will be visible again --Nicola Caione (talk) 16:03, 16 March 2018 (UTC)

Work Life Balance

Hi, De728631 (talk). I've upladed a file [[2]] taken from from a website wich allow the redistribution via the CC-BY-SA 3.0 licence. I would avoid any issue, so please tell me, how can I manage to include it in lavoro agile wiki page?. Thaks for your support. --Nicola Caione (talk) 21:49, 14 March 2018 (UTC)

I'm sorry, but this seems to be a non-free image which does not fall under the generic CC-BY-SA-3.0 licence of the website. A larger non-free graphic was available online already in 2015, and I don't see how Pongovernance1420 would have gotten a free licence for anyone else to use this image. De728631 (talk) 23:07, 15 March 2018 (UTC)

Hi De728631 (talk), tahnks for the info I'll remove the image now. I've spoken to a pixabay admin that told me I can upload on commons.wikimedia.org pictures from that site because they are released as Public Domain under Creative Commons CC0. The picture I would use is: https://pixabay.com/it/portatile-caff%C3%A8-braccio-uomo-1205256/. --Nicola Caione (talk) 11:03, 16 March 2018 (UTC)

Notification of suspension

For overuse of deletions, you have made admin policy useful. Your access to administrator tools have been suspended for the 1st of April.

Best regards, Artix Kreiger (talk) 14:47, 1 April 2018 (UTC)

@Artix Kreiger: Oh dear, how am I supposed to delete all the April Fools Day jokes? As everybody knows, admins are notoriously grumpy and despise any form of humor, so jokes are considered vandalism. De728631 (talk) 16:25, 1 April 2018 (UTC)

De Havilland Canada DHC-8-400

I see that on a large number of these files you have deleted Category:Aircraft by registration and replaced it with Category:De Havilland Canada DHC-8-400 by registration (using tag-a-lot). This is not in line with normal practice. These files should in fact have both categories in place. This is the norm for every other aircraft type, as I understand it, to preserve Category:Aircraft by registration as a complete list of aircraft. Could you please revert your changes or preferably re-insert Category:Aircraft by registration in the files. Ardfern (talk) 09:53, 2 April 2018 (UTC)

@Ardfern: I'm sorry but you're wrong on this. Category:Aircraft by registration urgently needs some diffusion because it is overpopulated, and Category:De Havilland Canada DHC-8-400 by registration like other such categories is a subcategory of "Aircraft by registration". Per our category policy, overcategorisation occurs when an item is categorised into one category and one of its parent categories at the same time. This has to be avoided, and therefore aircraft should never be in the general "by registration" category and in a category for registration by type, too. De728631 (talk) 13:40, 2 April 2018 (UTC)

In the normal course of categorisation I would agree with you, but Category:Aircraft by registration (now with some 77k files), seems to have been deliberately left like this (at least over the 10 years I have been doing aircraft categorisation) so that you can see just how many aircraft registrations have been accumulated in total. I would suggest you take this up with the WikiProject Aviation people for discussion. I think it would need some agreement before such a long-standing category is diffused. Ardfern (talk) 16:23, 2 April 2018 (UTC)

The diffusion started the day the first subcategories by type were created. And I don't see how local consensus could possibly trump a Commons policy. If an exception to the rule were to be allowed it should be discussed at Commons talk:Categories. De728631 (talk) 16:28, 2 April 2018 (UTC)

I have now started a discussion at Commons talk:Categories and also notified the aviation project of it. De728631 (talk) 16:47, 2 April 2018 (UTC)

File:Bundesstraße 400 number.svg

File:Bundesstraße 400 number.svg has been listed at Commons:Deletion requests so that the community can discuss whether it should be kept or not. We would appreciate it if you could go to voice your opinion about this at its entry.

If you created this file, please note that the fact that it has been proposed for deletion does not necessarily mean that we do not value your kind contribution. It simply means that one person believes that there is some specific problem with it, such as a copyright issue. Please see Commons:But it's my own work! for a guide on how to address these issues.

Please remember to respond to and – if appropriate – contradict the arguments supporting deletion. Arguments which focus on the nominator will not affect the result of the nomination. Thank you!

@Karl Gruber: Ja, ich hatte wohl vergessen, die Links einzubauen. Ich habe noch Einbindung der Sammelkategorie etwas angepasst, weil vorher auch die Vorlage selbst mit in die Kategorie gesteckt worden war. Die Dateien in Category:Used files in RegiowikiAT werden anscheinend sowieso automatisch vom Regiowiki hierher gemeldet, aber mit der Einbindung aus der Vorlage hat man jetzt auch auf den Dateiseiten einen Link zu der Kategorie. Das gab es vorher nicht. De728631 (talk) 19:04, 30 April 2018 (UTC)

Die Vorlage müssen wir schon händisch einbauen, aber das hält sich bei der Menge in Grenzen. Auf alle Fälle danke, so passts. lg K@rl (talk) 21:41, 30 April 2018 (UTC)

User:MazzyBor

Geschichtsfaelschung

Sehr geehrter "De728631"!

Ich habe gerade gesehen das Sie den sogenannten User:MazzyBor aufgrund von unkonstruktiver Ueberschreibungen benachrichtigt haben, und wollte ihn aufgrund von Geschichtsverfaelschung bei Ihnen melden. Mir kommt vor das hier: Commons:Administrators' noticeboard/User problems keiner darauf reagieren wird.

Wie ich bereits hier genannt habe, werden auf seiner Version dieser Karte, fast der gesammte Balkan als "Serbien" bezeichnet. Ausserdem werden Oesterreich und Slowenien als Teile von Deutschland dargestellt, die region Thrakien (Byzanz/Osm. Reich) als eigener Staat und Laender wie das "Byzantinische Reich", damals unter Osmanischer besetzung, (Konstantinople); "Republik Ragusa" usw. sind vollkommend verschwunden. Kroatien war von 1102 - 1526 im Staatsverband mit Ungarn, dies wurde natuerlich auch nicht beachtet.

Die Argumente des Benutzers sind: "You cant be more knowledgeable then me about my own country." und "...just google world map in 1385." (Siehe: User talk:MateoKatanaCRO)

Weiteres habe ich hier und hier erlaeutert.

Ich hoffe Sie koennen sich ein wenig Zeit nehmen dem nachzugehem.

MFG, MateoKatanaCRO (talk) 16:19, 3 May 2018 (UTC)

Hallo, MateoKatanaCRO. Ob das Geschichtsfälschung ist, kann ich so ohne Weiteres nicht beurteilen. Aber das Verhalten von MazzyBor ist trotzdem problematisch. Ich habe ihm dazu eine Nachricht hinterlassen und werde sein Benutzerkonto auch notfalls sperren. Falls er demnächst solche möglicherweise erfundenen Landkarten als eigene Datei hochlädt, würde ich vorschlagen, so etwas zur Löschung anzumelden. Nicht als "speedy deletion", sondern als Löschdiskussion. MFG, De728631 (talk) 16:40, 3 May 2018 (UTC)

...jetzt auch noch Nationalismus

Tja, er faengt wieder an...

Danke fuer Ihre schnelle Antwort Gestern, heute hat er zurueck geschlagen. Ich bekam einen Text in der Serbischen Sprache. Dieser Text ist jedoch sehr unkonstruktiv und nationalistisch. Er meinte damit das ich damit "Serben herum-hasse", "Wie Ungaren uns Kroaten sofort ueberennen wuerden" und zu guter letzt will er "mich bei einem >Russischen Admin< verpetzen wird wenn ich weiter hin Probleme mache der mir mit einem bann drohen soll"... So wie ich das sehe, sieht er die Wiki-Projekte als "Nationalistische Forums".

Dies ist der originale (Serbisch - kyrillisch): Изгледа да си Хрват. Ако јеси, твоја опседнутост према Србима није моја ствар. Изгледа да те је мајка учила да седиш за рачунар и мрзиш Србе по википедији. Држи се ти своје википедије, ја не идем на вашу и започнем да се правим паметан јел' то није моја земља и немам ништа с'њом. Сумњам да сте имали икакву везу са Мађарима јер тада нисте знали шта је точак, а Мађари би вас спљескали за секунду да вас Душан није ставио у састав. Зашто би они правили икакав однос са тако малом земљом, просто је логично да вас покоре. Бугарска је постала вазал Србији после битке код Велбужда. Тракија је регион, тада остатак Бугарске. Ако опет правиш проблем ја ћу тебе да пријавим руском админу па ће он теби да прети бановањем.

(Serbisch - lateinisch:) Izgleda da si Hrvat. Ako jesi, tvoja opsednutost prema Srbima nije moja stvar. Izgleda da te je majka učila da sediš za računar i mrziš Srbe po vikipediji. Drži se ti svoje vikipedije, ja ne idem na vašu i započnem da se pravim pametan jel' to nije moja zemlja i nemam ništa s'njom. Sumnjam da ste imali ikakvu vezu sa Mađarima jer tada niste znali šta je točak, a Mađari bi vas spljeskali za sekundu da vas Dušan nije stavio u sastav. Zašto bi oni pravili ikakav odnos sa tako malom zemljom, prosto je logično da vas pokore. Bugarska je postala vazal Srbiji posle bitke kod Velbužda. Trakija je region, tada ostatak Bugarske. Ako opet praviš problem ja ću tebe da prijavim ruskom adminu pa će on tebi da preti banovanjem.

Ich habe diesen Text mal auf Deutsch uebersetzt, und versichere Ihnen hiermit das ich nichts falsches ergaenzt bzw. erfunden habe. Jediglich nur fuer Ihre Einschaetzung und der Analyse meinerseits.

Deutsch (von mir uebersetzt): "Sieht so aus als waerst du ein Kroate. Wenn ja, ist mir deine Einstellung zu Serben egal. Sieht so aus als haette dir deine Mutter beigebracht das du vor dem Rechner sitzt und Serben auf Wikipedia hasst. Bleib bei deiner Wikipedia, ich geh auch nicht auf euere um mich dort auf Schlau zustellen, da es nicht mein Land ist und ich nichts damit zu tun habe. Ich bezweifle das ihr irgendwelche verbindungen zu Ungarn hattete da ihr damals nicht mal wusstet was ein Punkt sei. Die Magyaren hatten euch innerhalb einer sekunde ueberannt wenn euch Dušan nicht aufgenommen haette. Warum haetten sie (die Ungaren) irgend etwas ueberhaupt mit einem so mickrigen Land nur vorgehabt, ausser auch logischer weise zu vernichten. Bulgarien wurde zu einem Vassel von Serbien nach der Schlacht bei Welbaschd. Thrakien ist eine Region, damals Rest von Bulgarien (mehr in der Form wie: "Rest-Bulgarien"). Wenn du nochmals Probleme machst, werde ich dich bei einem Russischen admin melden der dich mit einem "Bann" (blockierung) bedrohen wird."

Meine Analyse:

Ja, ich bin ein Kroate und was hat dies mit meiner Nationalitaet zu tun? Es geht darum eine weltweite, freie Enzyklopaedie zu erstellen. — Dann kommt er mit beleidigungen an meine Mutter — Und welche Wikipedia?! Wir sind hier auf dem Commons Server.

Er meinte: Bleib bei deiner Wikipedia, ich geh auch nicht auf euere um mich dort auf Schlau zustellen, da es nicht mein Land ist und ich nichts damit zu tun habe. —- Wie bereits genannt, dies ist der Commons Server und seit wann schauen Wiki-Projekte auf Ethnien und Rassen der Mitarbeiter?!

Dann faengt er wieder an, an der Geschichte rumzuschrauben mit Aussagen wie: "Ich bezweifle das ihr irgendwelche verbindungen zu Ungarn hattete da ihr damals nicht mal wusstet was ein Punkt sei. Die Magyaren hatten euch innerhalb einer sekunde ueberannt wenn euch Dušan nicht aufgenommen haette. Warum haetten sie (die Ungaren) irgendetwas ueberhaupt mit einem so mickrigen Land nur vorgehabt, ausser euch logischer weise zu vernichten." — Wenn er schon von Wikipedia spricht, kann er sich auch folgendes durchlesen [3] [4] - Mit der Aussage "...euch logischer weise zu vernichten." zeigt er das er einen gewissen Hass auf meine Nation hat.

Die Magyaren hatten euch innerhalb einer sekunde ueberannt wenn euch Dušan nicht aufgenommen haette. wann war Kroatien teil von Serbien?; Nie. Nur zusammen in Federationen wie z. B. Jugoslawien. Irgendwelche Nachweise hatte er nicht. Er bezieht sich wohl auf eine alte Karte (c. 1860) die die "Bevoelkerung der Serben" zur Zeit der Osmanen darstellen sollte.

Bulgarien wurde zu einem Vassel von Serbien nach der Schlacht bei Welbaschd. — Dies ist wahr, jedoch habe ich nie das Gegenteil behauptet. Bugarien war ein Vassal, aber kein Teil von Serbien, was die Karte trotzdem nicht richtig zeigt.

Zum Schluss noch dies mit einem "Russischen Admin" — Will er damit sagen, wenn ich als Kroate zu einem Deutschen Admin gehe, (und dies nur weil ich reinzufaellig aufgrund meiner Auslandserfahrung mich besser in Deutsch als auf Englisch artikulieren kann) dann geht er zu einem Russischen aufgrund von Panslawismus und Russophilie?! Ich glaube eher weniger das ein Russischer Admin mir aufgrund meines Kampfes fuer die neutralitaet und gegen falscher Geschichte mich mit einem "Bann bedrohen wird" nur weil ein Benutzer, der auch noch unkonstruktiv ist - es ihm angeschafft hat.

Ich persoenlich finde nicht das so jemand auf Wikimedia und schon garnicht auf Wikipedia gehoert, aber dies ist nicht meine Entscheidung sondern nur meine Sicht der Dinge. Ein Verhalten wie dieses, wo er mit persoenlichen Beleidigungen an Familie, Nationalitaet und aehnlichem kommt ist nicht gerade Wertvoll.

Vielen Dank fuers lesen! --MateoKatanaCRO (talk) 11:38, 4 May 2018 (UTC)

@MateoKatanaCRO: Ja, solche Aussagen und Androhungen gehören hier echt nicht hin. Ich habe ihn erstmal für eine Woche gesperrt. Hoffentlich gibt ihm das zu Denken, oder er verliert das Interesse an solchen Provokationen. Wenn nicht, müssen wir die Sperre halt verlängern. Unbefristet würde ich sogar befürworten.

Schon wieder melde ich mich...

...tut mir leid falls ich Anstrengend sein sollte.

[6] Gestern hat er nen Antrag auf unblock gestellt. Mit dem "Argument": You have absolutely no reason to block me, i didn't harass anyone, if you are going to block someone for your personal reasons, then you have no right to be an admin.

Deshalb habe ich mir die Muehe gemacht diesen Text des IP Users zu Uebersetzen, da er nicht nur mich sondern auch Sie persoenlich angreift:

Original (Serbisch-kyrillisch:)

Страница национализма. Ко је овде националистички настројен. Ја сам ти послао личну поруку. Написао си на страници да највише улажеш на хрватској википедији, шта ћеш онда на српској. Соли ми памет грађанин једине државе на свету која је имала логор за децу и којој су се Немци гадили. Идеш по помоћ Немцу. И ти ћеш мени да причаш о национализму.

Нема потребе да одговараш, не знам које си годиште, али клони се српске википедије. Ја теби не сметам када мењаш нешто а ти мени враћаш ажурирања без икаквих извора. Нисам ти ја икакав пријатељ јел' те ни не знам.

А сада иди изврши претрагу, шта је Џими Вејлс изјавио званично о википедији па опет мало размисли да ли је ово националистичка страница или не, а све што радиш је политички :)

Original (Serbisch-lateinisch:)

Stranica nacionalizma. Ko je ovde nacionalistički nastrojen. Ja sam ti poslao ličnu poruku. Napisao si na stranici da najviše ulažeš na hrvatskoj vikipediji, šta ćeš onda na srpskoj. Soli mi pamet građanin jedine države na svetu koja je imala logor za decu i kojoj su se Nemci gadili. Ideš po pomoć Nemcu. I ti ćeš meni da pričaš o nacionalizmu.

Nema potrebe da odgovaraš, ne znam koje si godište, ali kloni se srpske vikipedije. Ja tebi ne smetam kada menjaš nešto a ti meni vraćaš ažuriranja bez ikakvih izvora. Nisam ti ja ikakav prijatelj jel' te ni ne znam.

A sada idi izvrši pretragu, šta je Džimi Vejls izjavio zvanično o vikipediji pa opet malo razmisli da li je ovo nacionalistička stranica ili ne, a sve što radiš je politički :)

Von mir uebersetzt:

"Nationalistische seite. Wer ist hier nationalistisch gepolt? Ich habe dir eine persoenliche Nachricht geschickt. Du hast geschrieben das du am meissten Zeit auf der Kroatischen Wikipedia verbringst, was hast du dann auf der Serbischen verloren? Ein Buerger des einzigen Landes mit einem Konzentrationslager fuer Kinder, vor dem sich sogar die Deutschen gegraust haben, will mir was erzaehlen. (Soli mi – bedeutet so viel wie "Saelzt herum") Zur Hilfe suchst du dir einen Deutschen. Und du willst mir etwas vom Nationalismus erzaehlen.

Es gibt keinen Grund warum du Antworten solltest, ich weiss nicht welcher Jahrgang du bist, aber hau ab von der Serbischen Wikipedia. Ich stoere dich ja auch nicht wenn du etwas aenderst, aber du loescht meine "Updates" ohne irgendwelche Nachweise. Ich bin nicht dein Freund da ich dich nicht kenne.

Und nun geh mal recherchieren, was "Džimi Vejls" (Jimmy Wales) offiziell selber gesagt hat und dann denk mal nach ob das hier eine nationalistische Seite is oder nicht, da alles was du machst politisch ist :)"

Was soll ich noch dazu sagen? Selbst als IP User gibt er keine Ruhe. --MateoKatanaCRO (talk) 10:44, 5 May 2018 (UTC)

Artix Kreiger

Hi, You where right with your initial block (which you self-reverted), see SPI case at enwiki. He edited commons with multiple ACC's. His current and active acc seems to be MechQuester. Looking at the block log, a indef. block is imho needed (playing the system). CC: @~riley: , Best --Steinsplitter (talk) 14:30, 19 May 2018 (UTC)

@Steinsplitter, ~riley, and Jeff G.: Artix Kreiger was locked globally today, so this issue has partly been resolved. Btw, the sockpuppetry of Artix Kreiger aka Winterysteppe is not logged in the SPI archive but I had to check Kreiger's block log at enwiki. De728631 (talk) 15:17, 19 May 2018 (UTC)

He has been locked upon self request, so he can tecnically request unlock (really unusual to luck users upon request). I don't like the fact, that the guy is abusing commons as his personal playground. :-) --Steinsplitter (talk) 15:20, 19 May 2018 (UTC)

Neither do I, but can we block MechQuester locally as a sockpuppet? A self-imposed block by Artix Kreiger would technically not be subject to sockpuppetry, or am I missing something? De728631 (talk) 15:26, 19 May 2018 (UTC)

Vorlage inlcoord

Hallo De728631, Du hast mir bei meinem Problem mit der Vorlage 53°42′15″N 9°33′56″E / Dorfstraße 12 / 53.704290; 9.565430 geholfen. Es erscheint - wie ich das wollte - nur die Adresse, nicht die Koordinaten, indem du label= eingeführt hast. Leider funktioniert das nur auf meinem PC, nicht aber auf meinen Handys. Sowohl bei Apple-Handy und Ipad, als auch beim Android-Handy erscheinen die Koodinaten und die Adresse. Lässt sich die Vorlage so erweitern, dass auch auf den Handys nur die Adresse erscheint? Gruß --Barghaan (talk) 09:38, 10 June 2018 (UTC)

Hallo Barghaan, da fragst du am besten @Speravir: Der hat den Parameter programmiert und kennt sich mit den Vorlagen allgemein sehr viel besser aus, als ich. Ich könnte mir aber schon vorstellen, dass es in der Mobilversion von Wikimedia auch bei den Templates Unterschiede zur Desktop-Version gibt, aber technisch kann ich dazu leider nichts sagen. De728631 (talk) 18:20, 10 June 2018 (UTC)

Tut mir leid, Barghaan, aber das überfordert auch mich. Mir fällt da nur Jarekt ein, den man (in Englisch) dazu mal fragen könnte, mich dann besser auch anpingen. — Speravir – 21:58, 10 June 2018 (UTC)

Ich habe nun Jarekt auf seiner Nutzerdisk. darauf angesprochen. — Speravir – 18:55, 11 June 2018 (UTC)

Ich hänge es mal hier als Nachtrag an: Barghaan, wie mir erst nach Jarekts Ansprache dämmerte, lag das Problem gar nicht an der Vorlage, sondern an fehlenden CSS-Regeln für die Mobilansicht – es waren übrigens alle Angaben von Geokoordinaten von der Dopplung betroffen – Steinsplitter hat dann nach meiner entsprechenden Anfrage im Admin-Noticeboard repariert. — Speravir – 18:56, 21 June 2018 (UTC)

Bengt Nyman

Hi De728631, Category:Ships by BN is supposed to be a user subcategory of Category:Photographs by Bengt Nyman. Maybe you can help me fix it. Bengt Nyman (talk) 14:53, 30 June 2018 (UTC)

Hi Bengt, it is already a subcategory but because "Category:Photographs by Bengt Nyman" is "hidden", the name at the bottom of the page is in small font unlike the regular categories. I just added a "hiddencat" template too for Ships by BN, so everything should be fine now. De728631 (talk) 14:58, 30 June 2018 (UTC)

Hi again. Unfortunately you have messed up hundreds of my files by removing Category:Photographs by Bengt Nyman. I want Photographs by Bengt Nyman as well as the subcategory under it to show under user categories. Please restore all. Bengt Nyman (talk) 15:11, 30 June 2018 (UTC)

I'm sorry but that practice should not be followed at all because it constitutes overcategorisation. Per our policies, files shall always be in the most specific category in a category tree, and not in one category (Ships by BN) and its parent category (Photographs by Bengt Nyman) at the same time. De728631 (talk) 15:20, 30 June 2018 (UTC)

Yes, that applies to general file categories, but need not be applied to hidden user categories which are for the benefit of the user organizing his work. Please leave my hidden user categories alone. Bengt Nyman (talk) 22:40, 30 June 2018 (UTC)

I have to disagree. Commons:Categories applies to all types of categories including user categories. They are explicitely mentioned in the "Major categories" section. Strictly speaking, it is even discouraged to create specific subcategories like "Ships by BN" (see Commons:User-specific galleries, templates and categories#Categories") but in your case I do find it useful and acceptable just because of the large number of ship photographs you use to provide. So, while user-specific categories should not be a part of the regular category tree, it is my understanding that they still need to be organised according to the same rules to avoid confusion by other users. You're welcome though to seek more opinions at the Village Pump or other venues. De728631 (talk) 14:21, 1 July 2018 (UTC)

Pre-uploads

Hi. Thanks for approving the deletions of the "pre-uploaded" files (I received permission to pre-upload historically important files and then immediately nominate them for deletion from another administrator, User:JuTa.). You marked them as deleted, and thank you, but for some reason, the ones marked as deleted are still on Commons, for example File:Мирослав Гермашевский, 1978.jpg from Commons:Deletion requests/File:Мирослав Гермашевский, 1978.jpg. Could you please double-check? Does the file appear deleted on your computer? I've restarted my computer and everthing but it is still there, and for copyright reasons I don't want it to remain there for long after being marked deleted. I appreciate your help since who knows if the everything from the online version of the Museum Catalog of the Ministry of Culture of the Russian Federation or even webarchive will still be there in 2071. (By the way, is there any chance you would be willing to be pinged daily with a list of pre-uploads for deletion? I understand that some admins are quite busy.) Thank you, --PlanespotterA320 (talk) 17:59, 7 July 2018 (UTC)

Hi PlanespotterA320, these do not appear on my computer so I guess they're still in your cache. Try clearing the cache of your browser and the visit the pages again. De728631 (talk) 00:24, 8 July 2018 (UTC)

Elska Magazine and "‪Copyright violations‬"

Hi there, I keep getting these deletions but I own the copyright of these photos and have repeatedly sent in permissions to use them, such as [Ticket#: 2018070910007118] and [Ticket#: 2018070910007047].

@Liamcampbell: Thank you for your response. Please do not reupload these images because they would only be deleted again for procedural reasons.

User:Varavour mass uploaded many photos taken by Yemane Gebremeskel with false copyright information stating that the photos are in the public domain as their author is dead. This is a lie.

This didn't work out I think. - Alexis Jazz ^{ping plz} 12:26, 11 July 2018 (UTC)

@Alexis Jazz: Yes, it did. This Flickr user was blacklisted for uploading works at Flickr that were clearly not his own. However, this file has the user's name in the exif. The bad author template does not mean that the file needs to get deleted automatically. Rather it is a not for reviewers to be extra careful when assessing the image and licence. See Commons:Questionable Flickr images: "It is not impossible that a Flickr user could have uploaded some images they took that they did have rights to, and some images from another source that they did not." In this case I don't have any doubt that it is an original work by this guy from Flickr. However, if you think it needs more scrutiny, please feel free to nominate the file for deletion. De728631 (talk) 13:18, 11 July 2018 (UTC)

Um, that's not what I meant.. Take a look at the page. You chose the wrong template. I support unblacklisting that Flickr user btw, I'm about to add my view to Commons:Categories for discussion/2017/09/Category:Photographs by Alan Levine. - Alexis Jazz ^{ping plz} 13:27, 11 July 2018 (UTC)

Template:PD-Marshall_Islands

In 2015, you added German and Russian translations of Template:PD-Marshall Islands. I have made some changes to this template to clarify some circumstances in which Marshallese works can be the subject of copyright. Would you please be able to update the translations with something similar? Thanks. Orthogonal1 (talk) 09:05, 19 July 2018 (UTC)

Well, the Russian text was created by Galeksandrp. I only linked it to the main template, and I don't speak Russian. But I can easily update the German version. De728631 (talk) 18:24, 19 July 2018 (UTC)

Finding redlinks

Guten Tag mal wieder. Ich würde gerne mal (in meinem Fachgebiet Luftfahrt) ein paar der zahllosen Rotlinks abbauen und in zugängliche umwandeln. Kennst Du zufällig eine Möglichkeit, systematisch danach zu suchen? Als Beispiel mal ein eigener: Creating Category:F-AZNK (aircraft). Kann man (hier z.B. mit der Begrenzung auf "(aircraft)") solche herausfiltern? Vielen Dank für die mögliche Hilfe! Freundliche Grüße --Uli Elch (talk) 10:37, 23 July 2018 (UTC)

Hallo Uli. Du kannst mal folgendes versuchen: Special:WantedCategories → 500 Ergebnisse anzeigen → im Browser suchen nach "aircraft" ohne Klammern → ggf. weiterblättern. Nr. 2492 z. B. ist Category:Lockheed Corporation aircraft by facing‏‎, aber leider ist die Liste auf 5000 Einträge beschränkt. Wie man gezielt nach redlinks suchen kann, weiß ich leider auch nicht. Ich werde aber mal in der Village Pump fragen. De728631 (talk) 13:23, 23 July 2018 (UTC)

Dank JuTa habe ich eine etwas verbesserte Methode gefunden:

Special:Categories → 500 Ergebnisse anzeigen → Zeige Kategorien ab: D-

Das liefert alle blauen und roten Kategorien die mit "D-" beginnen, d. h. da kann man schon bei den Segelfliegern einige rote Einträge finden. Mit anderen Länderkennzeichen geht das natürlich auch, aber man hat bekommt halt immer noch keine reinen redlinks als Ergebnis. De728631 (talk) 16:15, 23 July 2018 (UTC)

Vielen Dank für die guten Tips! Den zweiten konnte ich selbst auch noch ein wenig "verfeinern", indem ich z.B. eingebe "D-A". (Unser Vorgehen erinnert mich an meine rudimentären Kochkünste, die meist anhand des Buches "Wie verfeinere ich Tiefkühlkost" entwickelt wurden). Viele Grüße --Uli Elch (talk) 07:00, 24 July 2018 (UTC)

Ja, bin jetzt schon weiter: klappt ganz gut (komplette redlinks wären natürlich noch schöner, aber so geht's auch schon mal). Wie sagte mal ein sehr bekannter Staatsratsvorsitzender: "Gestern standen wir noch am Rande des Abgrunds, heute sind wir schon einen großen Schritt weiter!". --Uli Elch (talk) 07:40, 24 July 2018 (UTC)

Deletion requests for "red" categories

Good morning again. I'd like to know how to insert a "speedy deletion" request into

a) an existing, but not yet created (red) category like this one
b) a category that was previously deleted like this one.

Both do not have an "Edit" button. Thanks in advance - Best regards --Uli Elch (talk) 09:09, 24 July 2018 (UTC)

Thanks for transferring my files

Hi, thanks for helping me out and transferring my images over to English wikipedia. I'm still a bit new to editing articles and I have never uploaded a picture on this site until this week. From what I understood from the tutorial I followed is that I had to upload the images here before moving them over to the Wikipedia page I wanted to add them in. Is there a different way to upload images other than having them go through here so that I can avoid this whole copyright ordeal thing again? Also, one of the images I uploaded was already replaced with a different image but with correct context of the image, which I was okay with not re-enabling it, which is I guess why you only had to move two of my images. Thank you again for helping me out. — Preceding unsigned comment added by SixOClockBoos (talk • contribs) 21:42, 26 July 2018 (UTC) -SixOClockBoos — Preceding unsigned comment added by SixOClockBoos (talk • contribs) 21:43, 26 July 2018 (UTC)

== Verrückte neue Kategorien ==

Ich habe den Eindruck, ein allseits leider allzu bekannter Ami dreht jetzt beim ständigen Erfinden neuer Kategorien endgültig durch: Category:Low wing monoplanes. Vorher hatte er schon über 1.000 Kategorien von Category:High wing aircraft nach Category:High wing monoplanes verschoben.

Sehe ich da vielleicht selbst etwas völlig falsch oder hast Du schon mal was von "Low wing biplanes" oder "High wing triplanes" gehört?

Falls nicht, müsste der endlich mal gestoppt werden.

Schon vor einer Weile hatte er gerade angefangen, die allgemein eingeführte Kategorie "by location" durch "by airport" zu ersetzen, woraufhin ich in die dortige Disk etwas schrieb - wie üblich, ohne jede Reaktion.

Viele Grüße, mit der inständigen Bitte, im Interesse des Projekts hier etwas gegen diese zehntausendfachen, massiven Alleingänge zu tun. --Uli Elch (talk) 21:25, 30 July 2018 (UTC)

Hallo Uli, ich habe diese Verschiebungen zurückgesetzt und ihn mal direkt auf seine Änderungen angesprochen. Meine Empfehlung an ihn ist, dass er sich in Zukunft erstmal auf Commons talk:WikiProject Aviation Zustimmung einholt, bevor er irgendwelche Neuerungen einführt. Auf den Disk-Seiten der Kategorien hat man wohl eher kein Glück, ein breites Publikum für eine Besprechung zu finden, zumal wenn kaum jemand weiß, dass es diese neue Cat gibt. Sollte sich der Kollege allerdings weiterhin durch "kreative" Verschiebungen hervortun, die nicht zwangsweise erforderlich sind, darfst du auch gerne mal eine Meldung auf COM:AN/U machen. De728631 (talk) 12:22, 31 July 2018 (UTC)

Herzlichen Dank für die kluge und sehr gut formulierte Ansprache dort, ebenso wie für die ausführlich begründeten Rücksetzungen.

Das AN/U hatte ich bislang noch nicht genutzt, weil ich der Meinung war, Konflikte erst einmal selbst auf der themenspezifischen Diskussionsseite oder aber mit dem jeweiligen Kollegen lösen zu können. Wie der Verlauf gerade mit ihm war, sieht man ja leider. Fazit: Du hast wohl recht damit, dass diese Disk-Seiten wenig gelesen warden, und danke für den Vorschlag, in krassen Fallen mal in obigem Gremium vorstellig zu werden. Viele Grüße --Uli Elch (talk) 14:31, 31 July 2018 (UTC)

When moving a category, move the content

You moved Category:Low wing monoplanes to Category:Low wing aircraft, but didn't move the content, leaving a bunch of items in a redirected category. Please clean up after a category move. Thanks! Josh (talk) 17:32, 31 July 2018 (UTC)

Well, technically you shouldn't have moved this page in the first place. Recategorising is done by creating a new page and then redirecting the old category. I can't see anything left in Category:Low wing monoplanes so in case you put the items back to Category:Low wing aircraft: thank you. De728631 (talk) 18:58, 31 July 2018 (UTC)

Do you know what you should do next? --Алый Король (talk) 09:05, 9 August 2018 (UTC)

@Алый Король: Yes, I know what to do. I'm going to point you to COM:UDR. I do see now that the file was actually released under a CC licence at Instagram, but with such snarky remarks as yours I'm not inclined to undelete this myself. We all make mistakes, and if you had simply asked me to restore the file, I would have done it. But this attitude of yours is just inappropriate – even if your upload was deleted. De728631 (talk) 09:51, 9 August 2018 (UTC)

Yes, of course, inappropriate, but is yours appropriate? You didnt spend even one second to open my user page and try to understand I am a vandal or an experienced user, didnt spend even two more seconds to ask me "I see black, but you are saying that is white, what is going on?" You didnt think about my emotions and deleted this file. so I didnt as well. --Алый Король (talk) 10:08, 9 August 2018 (UTC)

I did check your userpage and contributions and it made me wonder why you would upload a seemingly unfree image. Turelio, who tagged the file, is an experienced user and admin as well and I trust his judgement when it comes to copyright violations. Moreover, you could have objected to the speedy deletion by leaving a comment on the file's talk page, or by turning the speedy deletion template into a full deletion discussion. Anyhow, to save us both more bureaucratic acts, I have now restored the file. I really appreciate your contributions, but for such non-obvious licensings as chat streams, I would recommend that you leave a note in the summary where to find the free licence. That would help reviewers to verify the licence. De728631 (talk) 10:22, 9 August 2018 (UTC)

Thanks. Actually this deletion was really FAST (I really didn't have time for any reaction). Anyway, thanks for understanding. I will put a note next time. --Алый Король (talk) 10:57, 9 August 2018 (UTC)

Ships by name

Привет, ты не убирай категорию Ships by name, sondern ergänze durch bzw. um eine weitere wie Tugboats by name, Ferry ships by name, Gruß,--PjotrMahh1 (talk) 10:28, 25 July 2018 (UTC)

@PjotrMahh1: Hallo. Das "Ergänzen" um eine weitere Kategorie ist aber falsch, siehe Commons:Overcat. Z. B. Category:Ferry ships by name ist bereits im Kategoriebaum von Category:Ships by name enthalten, darum darf diese Hauptkategorie nicht zusätzlich verwendet werden. De728631 (talk) 11:46, 25 July 2018 (UTC)

In der Praxis machen wir so, wie ein Beispiel vom obersten Schiff in dieser Kategorie Category:Adamantios Korais (ship, 1987). Und das machen wir alle, Category:Ships by name muss unbedingt, alles andere ist unwichtig. Hast du es nicht gewusst oder ignoriert? Und ist die Fähre hier im Sinne der Seeschifffahrtsstraßen-Ordnung (SeeSchStrO) oder wie? Und wenn aufgelegt, heisst dieses Schiff auch Ferry? Type of ship ist es nicht, und für Type schreiben wir Category:General cargo ships oder Category:Passenger ships, Ferry ist ein Übersetzer von einem Ufer bis zum anderen und weiter nix, Gruß,--PjotrMahh1 (talk) 21:46, 25 July 2018 (UTC)
- Tut mir leid, aber da muss ich dir ernsthaft widersprechen. Erstmal zu den Grundsätzen von Commons: nur weil es in der Praxis vielleicht gemacht wird, heißt es nicht, dass es richtig ist und den Regeln entspricht. Das System für alle Kategoriestrukturen ist einmal verbindlich entschieden worden: Commons:Kategorien#Kategoriestruktur. Wenn also Category:Ferry ships by name eine Unterkategorie von Category:Ships by name ist, dann darf laut dieser Richtlinie von Commons nur die am tiefsten "sortierte" Kategorie verwendet werden. Und das ist eben Ferry ships by name. Abgesehen davon wird der Begriff ferry im englischen und auch anderswo auch für große Passagierfähren verwendet. Das hat nichts mit der Größe des Schiffes oder dem Einsatzort zu tun. Darum sind in Category:Ferry ships by name auch solche Schiffe wie Category:Bencomo Express (ship, 1999), Category:European Voyager (ship, 1974) oder Category:Stena Nordica (ship, 2000) vorhanden. Du selbst hast sogar damals Category:Gardenia Seaways (ship, 2017) so angelegt. De728631 (talk) 00:07, 26 July 2018 (UTC)

Ich habe jetzt eine Diskussion auf Category talk:Ships by name begonnen, damit wir das mal allgemein besprechen können. De728631 (talk) 00:33, 26 July 2018 (UTC)

- - Eben, man muss diese Frage mit den Kollegen besprechen, denn ***Tugboats by name (Tug), Sailing yachts by name (Sailing Vessel or Pleasure Craft?) haben mehr Rechte und Anlässe dazu als Ferry. (Fall Gardenia Seaways) Ich habe um Category:Ferry ships by name ergänzt, nicht statt Category:Ships by name verwendet. Fähre als Type zu betrachten und dazu noch unter Category:Ships by name by type ist falsch, wenn ja, dann schon direct und zusätzlich, Category:Ships by name und Category:Ferry ships by name ohne Vermittlung durch Category:Ships by name by type, спасибо,--PjotrMahh1 (talk) 06:30, 26 July 2018 (UTC) Noch was vergessen. Für mich wäre wichtig, alle Schiffe nach dem Namen in der Geschichte dabei etwa als in einer Liste haben (etwa abc-Verzeichnis), denn irgendwelch Wasserfahrzeug ist in der Liste, das andere dagegen nur von einer Unterkategorie erfasst. So mein Vorschlag, wie ich bisher die Sache auch verstanden habe, alle Schiffe bekommen automatisch oder manuell Cat. Ships by name, und die andere Cat. zusätzlich, danke--PjotrMahh1 (talk) 06:41, 26 July 2018 (UTC)
    - @PjotrMahh1: Weil sich auf der Diskussionseite dort nichts getan hat, geht es jetzt auf Commons:Categories for discussion/2018/08/Category:Ships by name weiter. Ich hoffe, dass die Angelegenheit dort mehr Aufmerksamkeit erfährt. De728631 (talk) 14:47, 11 August 2018 (UTC)

Category:Coats of arms of families of England

Hi, you have moved some images from Category:Coats of arms of families of England to Category:Coats of arms of English nobility (for example Category:Herbert arms). This is a problem: Category:Coats of arms of families of England should be the top category. The nobility category is difficult as English gentry families enter and leave the nobility over time. Nobility may just be a temporary phenomenon for many gentry families. Thus the Category:Coats of arms of English nobility is problematical for English usage. I believe the German nobility is different as titles do not die out so easily as there is a true aristocracy, as opposed to the English system which is not a true aristocracy as only eldest sons are noble, their younger brothers are merely gentry. Therefore I suggest all members of Category:Coats of arms of English nobility should also appear in Category:Coats of arms of families of England. I would ideally like to see Category:Coats of arms of English nobility closed down. We need an all inclusive category which includes ALL English coats of arms. No English reference book of arms categorises by "nobility". Thanks.Lobsterthermidor (talk) 23:07, 16 August 2018 (UTC)

Hi, Lobsterthermidor. Thank you for clarifying this issue. You may want to start a dicussion at Commons talk:WikiProject Heraldry so there can be some sort of consensus on what to do. De728631 (talk) 13:48, 17 August 2018 (UTC)

Before I consider that, what is your opinion on my suggestion? Lobsterthermidor (talk) 11:23, 18 August 2018 (UTC)

Well, I wouldn't mind having only one central category like "Coats of arms of families of England". The nobility category could then be redirected. De728631 (talk) 14:09, 18 August 2018 (UTC)

I agree, I think that would be best. Gentry is the common factor in heraldry and there are hundreds of English gentry families which have had just one member ennobled, who died childless, maybe centuries ago. So which cat would those arms go in? So can we both start work on recategorising images back to the cat "Coats of arms of families of England", then adding a re-direct when completed? I don't think this is a controversial issue. Many thanks.Lobsterthermidor (talk) 11:54, 25 August 2018 (UTC)

Yes, this sounds like a plan. At the moment I'm pretty busy off-Wiki but I'll try to help out with the recatorizing. Let's put them all back to "Coats of arms of families of England". De728631 (talk) 20:32, 25 August 2018 (UTC)

Un-coordinated category moves again

The very same user who has already been admonished by you not to continue with un-coordinated category moves, renaming and inventing shows being absolutely unimpressed by that. He had been advised "... you had quite a few discussions on this talk page where people complained about your introduction of new categories since they were not regarded as improvements."

For the latest actions like that, please see User talk:Joshbaumgartner, last three items, starting with "Layout clash ...". Additionally, he performed such moves like this one moving "aircraft of the US" to "aircraft from the US", which does not appear to make much sense from a linguistic point of view; it just creates hundreds of moves of connected files and sub-cats. Please be so kind and take care of that ever growing problem. Thank you. --Uli Elch (talk) 11:18, 20 August 2018 (UTC)

Hey! I just realized I had reverted your edit on the Village Pump. Sorry!!!! I was reading on my phone, and I made a false move --that I didn't even realize. My bad! Sorry again. --Joalpe (talk) 23:51, 27 October 2018 (UTC)

@Joalpe: Hi there, that's not a big deal. Jon Kolbert fixed it right away, and I didn't even notice your revert. De728631 (talk) 16:26, 28 October 2018 (UTC)

Wieder Ärger um US-Terminologie

Guten Morgen. Es gibt wieder Ärger darum, dass zwei Amis mit aller Gewalt den bei ICAO in diesem Kontext nicht benutzten Ausdruck "model" statt "type" durchdrücken wollen: Diskussion Aircraft by type name.

Hierzu hattest Du dies schon einmal geschrieben: "And "type" is the official ICAO designation for what may otherwise be called an aircraft model. Using "model" for general aircraft categories is problematic though, because it should only be used for categories of scale models. Hence the "by type" wording of the subcategories that was rightfully introduced by Uli Elch. De728631 (talk) 19:47, 5 April 2018 (UTC)".

Ich hatte ergänzt: See also Category:Models of aircraft sowie jetzt: "Please type in aircraft model in the English Wikipedia - and see what happens."

Nun ist Joshbaumgartner auch noch dazu übergegangen, seine Argumentation mit glatten Lügen stützen zu wollen: Es ware ich gewesen, der Kategorien "to his liking" umbenannt hätte - während gerade er selbst genau das getan hatte, was ich in der Disk anhand etlicher Beispiele belegt habe.

Ich würde mich sehr freuen, wenn Du die Möglichkeit fändest, Dich zu diesem Thema einzubringen. Viele Grüße --Uli Elch (talk) 10:26, 27 November 2018 (UTC)

Commons:Deletion requests/File:Olympic Tent City - Day 1 - Housing activists.jpg

While I'm inclined to close this as a keep per your rationale what do we do with the file information page? It can't stay in Category:Unsourced Flickr images checked by trusted user permanently but it also can't "officially" be license reviewed. I know we have flickr related tags when a license is changed but I don't see any if the source is gone. I'm also not really a fan of just removing the {{Flickr no source}} without something to put in it's place since that will just open the possibility for a repeat of this. Ideas? --Majora (talk) 17:11, 2 December 2018 (UTC)

@Majora: I think you can easily remove the {{Flickr no source}} tag and add a {{Kept}} at the talk page instead. This will link to the deletion discussion where points were made for keeping this image. De728631 (talk) 17:13, 2 December 2018 (UTC)

Looks like Jcb was faster.

This is how

Commons:Undeletion requests/Archive/2018-10#File:Walt Whitman - George Collins Cox.jpg

"how did it even get into this mass DR in the first place?!"

This is how. Several PD images were mentioned in the DR. The admin didn't do so much as lift a finger to repair any damage. Well I'm sure you remember, it was a big thread. - Alexis Jazz ^{ping plz} 08:51, 8 December 2018 (UTC)

While I don't remember the original DR thread, I'd say the damage was partially caused by you, too. Tossing 1.7k files from a broad search result into one DR will inevitably cause collateral damage. I don't agree with a lot of what Jcb is doing at Commons, but in this case I think he can't be blamed. The problem is that it would've taken ages to sift through all these uploads one by one and find any possible PD images. So dumping the whole lot into the waste bin was a practical solution, if not a pretty one. De728631 (talk) 19:09, 8 December 2018 (UTC)

All but 150 were categorized by the time the deletion hammer hit, including some categories for images that had to be deleted. I sank many hours of work into that. There was no reason to delete the whole DR. - Alexis Jazz ^{ping plz} 23:11, 8 December 2018 (UTC)

Petre Antonescu

Petre Antonescu died 1965. But here you have rejected me (double standard?). See also Category:Buildings by Petre Antonescu. --Turbojet (talk) 22:45, 15 December 2018 (UTC)

Double standards? Where and why? I don't see why you would reference a thread from half a year ago. Even more so since Jameslwoodward explained the situation there pretty well. De728631 (talk) 01:42, 17 December 2018 (UTC)

Both are about Romanian architects. If the image which was discussing was covered in Romanian legislation, not recognized by Jim, there is no justification for the images in the category Petre Antonescu. Yet they are preserved, and the one I have discussed not. This is the double standard of Commons administrators. --Turbojet (talk) 11:50, 17 December 2018 (UTC)

Then why don't you go ahead and nominate these other images for deletion? At the English Wikipedia there is a very informative essay on what not to do in a deletion discussion: WP:OTHERSTUFF and WP:ALLORNOTHING come to my mind. Moreover, I fail to see why you are now coming up with this argument when the undeletion discussion took place more than half a year ago. Anyhow, I have now started Commons:Deletion requests/Files in Category:Accademia di Romania (Rome). De728631 (talk) 14:39, 17 December 2018 (UTC)

I am a simple user, I have to respect the policies only on the pictures uploaded by me. You are an administrator, you have the duty to enforce policy compliance throughout the whole project. Now that you know the situation with Petre Antonescu, if you do not do everything with your hand, I will maintain the view that you and Jim are applying a double standard. --Turbojet (talk) 15:14, 17 December 2018 (UTC)

Commons lives off its "simple users" as you call them, so yes, you can act here as well. We administrators have to deal with thousands of problematic images every day, and believe it or not, we do have a life outside of Commons. We're not here at a full-time job to fix up anything ar once that the community probably messed up. I only made comments in a case that was handled by another administrator and where several other editors contributed. So, honestly, your allegations of a double standard a few months after the case was decided are just lame. De728631 (talk) 15:23, 17 December 2018 (UTC)

That case was wrongly decided, but this is another discussion that I promised to resume, but the time has not come.

I understand that you, as an administrator, all you do is just comment on some discussions, not to work on the project. Okay, I'm done in this discussion, I understand what the Commons' administrators do. --Turbojet (talk) 16:53, 17 December 2018 (UTC)
