Picture of the Year voting round 1 open
[edit]Dear Wikimedians,
Wikimedia Commons is happy to announce that the 2012 Picture of the Year competition is now open. We're interested in your opinion as to which images qualify to be the Picture of the Year for 2012. Voting is open to established Wikimedia users who meet the following criteria:
- Users must have an account, at any Wikimedia project, which was registered before Tue, 01 Jan 2013 00:00:00 +0000 [UTC].
- This user account must have more than 75 edits on any single Wikimedia project before Tue, 01 Jan 2013 00:00:00 +0000 [UTC]. Please check your account eligibility at the POTY 2012 Contest Eligibility tool.
- Users must vote with an account meeting the above requirements either on Commons or another SUL-related Wikimedia project (for other Wikimedia projects, the account must be attached to the user's Commons account through SUL).
Hundreds of images that have been rated Featured Pictures by the international Wikimedia Commons community in the past year are all entered in this competition. From professional animal and plant shots to breathtaking panoramas and skylines, restorations of historically relevant images, images portraying the world's best architecture, maps, emblems, diagrams created with the most modern technology, and impressive human portraits, Commons features pictures of all flavors.
For your convenience, we have sorted the images into topic categories. Two rounds of voting will be held: In the first round, you can vote for as many images as you like. The first round category winners and the top ten overall will then make it to the final. In the final round, when a limited number of images are left, you must decide on the one image that you want to become the Picture of the Year.
To see the candidate images just go to the POTY 2012 page on Wikimedia Commons
Wikimedia Commons celebrates our featured images of 2012 with this contest. Your votes decide the Picture of the Year, so remember to vote in the first round by January 30, 2013.
Thanks,
the Wikimedia Commons Picture of the Year committee

Dear Wikimedians,
Wikimedia Commons is happy to announce that the second round of the 2013 Picture of the Year competition is now open. This year will be the eighth edition of the annual Wikimedia Commons photo competition, which recognizes exceptional contributions by users on Wikimedia Commons. Wikimedia users are invited to vote for their favorite images featured on Commons during the last year (2013) to produce a single Picture of the Year.
Hundreds of images that have been rated Featured Pictures by the international Wikimedia Commons community in the past year were entered in this competition. These images include professional animal and plant shots, breathtaking panoramas and skylines, restorations of historical images, photographs portraying the world's best architecture, impressive human portraits, and so much more.
There are two total rounds of voting. In the first round, you voted for as many images as you liked. The top 30 overall and the most popular image in each category have continued to the final. In the final round, you may vote for just one image to become the Picture of the Year.
Round 2 will end on 7 March 2014. https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Commons:Picture_of_the_Year/2013/Introduction/en Click here to learn more and vote »]

Hallo Jan,
im Map-Workshop der Wikimedia Commons gibt es aktuell (schon seit letztem Jahr) die Bitte, deine Karte Ostural-Spur.png ins Englische zu übertragen. Da Du mit Sicherheit noch die Quelldatei hast, wäre dies vielleicht etwas, bei dem Du unterstützen kannst.
Viele Grüße --Xerxes2k (talk) 21:58, 10 January 2019 (UTC)
- Hallo Xerxes2k, danke für den Hinweis. Ich selbst komme im Moment nicht dazu, internationalisierte Versionen der Karte zu erstellen. Daher habe ich die GIMP-Quelldatei hochgeladen, in der Hoffnung, dass sich jemand anderes der Übersetzung annimmt. --JanRieke (talk) 10:16, 19 January 2019 (UTC)
Adding info
[edit]Hi
I'm wondering why you added information on this map file:Map of the East Urals Radioactive Trace.png as that information is not really valid for that version. I have stated which sources I have used and there on them you can see that information. One should not (to my understanding) have to state things like e.a. the original author on each and every version, it will be impossible to keep track and update for e.a. version 25. --Goran tek-en (talk) 11:06, 8 February 2019 (UTC)
- The CC-by-sa 3.0 license states in its terms that you always have to name all previous creators explicitly. This is why I added all previous authors to your image's description. This also implies that you cannot simply take a CC-by-sa work, modify it, and allow other licensees to license your work just by using your name -- all licensees must also name all previous authors of your derived work. Of course it may be difficult to keep track of all authors if a work changes frequently, but: a) this is not the case here (and will probably never be the case), and b) this is a shortcoming of the Wikimedia software, which does affect the legal requirements. --JanRieke (talk) 20:54, 8 February 2019 (UTC)
- In this file file:Map of the East Urals Radioactive Trace.png I have stated two sources and one has this license "This file is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 2.5 Generic, 2.0 Generic and 1.0 Generic license." and the other one has " Permission is granted to copy, distribute and/or modify this document under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2 or any later version published by the Free Software Foundation; with no Invariant Sections, no Front-Cover Texts, and no Back-Cover Texts." and "If this file is eligible for relicensing, it may also be used under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 license.".
- The new version I have created is licensed under "This file is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 4.0 International license." and to my understanding it is enough if I link to the source and there you can see who created the other version.
- And is there are two different licenses of the two images I have used, which should I follow as I can't follow two different licenses... --Goran tek-en (talk) 20:54, 9 February 2019 (UTC)
- 1. If there is more than one license given, you may choose one. So it's perfectly fine to just use the CC-by-sa.
- 2. If you want to create a derivative work off a CC-by-sa work, you may (at least in most of the cases) choose a license that is "compatible" as defined by the CC organization. The 4.0 version is defined compatible to the 3.0. So you can use CC-by-sa 4.0 for your derivative work. But this does not change anything on the original works' licenses, which are still 3.0 and 2.5. And the 3.0 requires that you give a list of authors, not just a link to the list of authors. So this is why you need the full list in the description.
- 3. Because you chose 4.0, if someone wants to use your work, it is OK for them to give credit to the authors just by providing a link. However, this still does not allow you to discard the names of all previous authors when putting your derivative work under the CC-by-sa 4.0. So any licensee of your work may either credit all authors directly, or provide a link the the list of all authors (e.g., to the desciption page of your work).
- Does this make things a bit clearer? PS: Thanks for making that translated version of the map! --JanRieke (talk) 13:04, 10 February 2019 (UTC)
- Thanks for your info but to me I still think stating the source is enough, if not most files on commons are wrong in that perspective. But I will drop this here so thanks again. --Goran tek-en (talk) 19:17, 10 February 2019 (UTC)
