Hi MRB. Something is wrong with your pictures of Madeira-Faial. Faial is not an island of Madeira. Faial is an island from Azores. Where have you been? Juntas 01:46, 9 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Madeira has two islands (Madeira and Porto Santo) Azores has nine islands (Flores, Corvo, Terceira, Faial, Pico, São Jorge, Graciosa, São Miguel and Santa Maria].

The same goes to "Camara de Lobos". Juntas 03:01, 9 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Faial is a village on the northern coast of the island Madeira, too, and Câmara de Lobos is a town on Madeira. —MRB 07:54, 9 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Well sorry, you're right (where was my head?) at 3 o'clock in the morning....Juntas 22:01, 9 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Request

Hi MRP,

My name is Fernanda Viégas and I have been studying Wikipedia for a while now (you can see a paper I published on the subject here). I would like to ask you a few questions about your activities as a Wikipedia "photographer." I am fascinated by the pictorial side of Wikipedia and it would be great to hear about this community from one of its members. Would you be available for an email interview? Thanks, Fernanda.

Please feel free to send me your questions by using Special:Emailuser/MRB. It's an honour for me you've chosen me for your study. —MRB 09:19, 1 April 2006 (UTC)

voting policy

hi MRB,

I do understand your concern, as I've been in similar situations myself. Nevertheless, having to deal with a global team of contributors, I think we should be quite strict. When it is Friday 1:00 am in Belgium for instance, it is still Thusday 7:00 pm in Guadeloupe. It might lead to a lot of discussion. Some people my be able to vote almost a day longer than others. If we consider time of voting then the rules are the same for everybody, wherever they live. Dura lex, sed lex. -- Lycaon 19:59, 28 June 2006 (UTC)

I agree. So I've been bold and I have adjusted the policy on COM:FPC. ;-) -- Lycaon 20:49, 28 June 2006 (UTC)

FP Nomination

Guten Abend Markus,

Ich habe dein Bild File:Nazare 001.jpg bei den QI Nominierungen gesehen. Das Bild ist nicht nur technisch ausgezeichnet, aber der Blick auf den Strand ist hervorragend, so sehr, dass ich glaube, das Bild entspricht alle Voraussetzungen für eine Featured Picture Aufzeichnung.

Wenn du es mir erlaubst, will ich dieses Bild als FP nominieren.

Best dank und Grüsse aus Zürich Luis

Source of derivative work is not properly indicated: File:Torino dot.png

This file may be deleted.

A file that you have uploaded to Wikimedia Commons, File:Torino dot.png, is a derivative work, containing an "image within an image". Examples of such works would include a photograph of a sculpture, a scan of a magazine cover, or a map that has been altered from the original. In each of these cases, the rights of the creator of the original must be considered, as well as those of the creator of the derivative work. While the description page states who made this derivative work, it currently doesn't specify who created the original work, so the overall copyright status is unclear. If you did not create the original work depicted in this image, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. Please edit the file description and add the missing information, or the file may be deleted. If you created the original content yourself, enter this information as the source. If someone else created the content, the source should be the address to the web page where you found it, the name and ISBN of the book you scanned it from, or similar. You should also name the author, provide verifiable information to show that the content is in the public domain or has been published under a free license by its author, and add an appropriate template identifying the public domain or licensing status, if you have not already done so. Please add the required information for this and other files you have uploaded before adding more files. If you need assistance, please ask at the help desk. Thank you!
