Welcome to Wikimedia Commons, Niklem!

Autopatrol given

Hello. I just wanted to let you know that I have granted autopatrol rights to your account; the reason for this is that I believe you are sufficiently trustworthy and experienced to have your contributions automatically marked as "reviewed". This has no effect on your editing, it is simply intended to make it easier for users that are monitoring Recent changes or Recent uploads to find unproductive edits amidst the productive ones like yours. In addition, the Flickr upload feature and an increased number of batch-uploads in UploadWizard, uploading of freely licensed MP3 files, overwriting files uploaded by others and an increased limit for page renames per minute are now available to you. Thank you. odder (talk) 16:30, 6 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Great, thanks! --Niklem (talk) 17:45, 6 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Picture of the Year voting round 1 open

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:

  1. Users must have an account, at any Wikimedia project, which was registered before Tue, 01 Jan 2013 00:00:00 +0000 [UTC].
  2. 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.
  3. 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

Доброе время суток!


Вы считаете, что смысл статьи о кадетском корпусе увеличился, когда 5\6 информации из статьи выкинуто? Патрулирующие и администраторы до Вас оставили страничку без изменений. Что касается медиафайлов File:Кадетская слава 1.jpg File:Кадетская слава 2.jpg File:Кадетская слава 3.jpg, то это действительно моя работа. Как на сайте кадетского корпуса, так и здесь, в Википедии. Видите ли, я являюсь выпускником этого учебного заведения и участвовал в создании некоторых интернет-ресурсов, ему принадлежащих. Поэтому Ваши замечания об авторском праве неуместны. Надеюсь вы поймёте меня правильно.--Arsenikum 447 (talk) 13:31, 30 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome, Dear Patroller!

English  español  മലയാളം  Türkçe  +/−


Counter Vandalism Unit

Hi Niklem,

You now have the Patroller right and may call yourself a patroller! Please take a moment to read the updated Commons:Patrol to learn how Patrolling works and how we use it to fight vandalism.

As you know already, the patrolling functionality is enabled for all edits, not just for new-page creations. This enables us to keep track of, for example, edits made by anonymous users here on Commons.

We could use your help at the Counter Vandalism Unit. For example by patrolling an Anonymous-edits checklist and checking a day-part.

If you have any questions please leave a message on the CVU talkpage or ask for help on IRC in #wikimedia-commons. --Steinsplitter (talk) 10:42, 15 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Niklem, thanks for your application to be an image reviewer. The application has been removed as successful, and you've been added to the list of reviewers. You can review all kind of image licenses on Commons. Please see Commons:License review and Commons:Flickr files if you haven't done so already. We also have a guide how to detect copyright violations. Backlogs include Flickr review, Picasa review, Panoramio review, and files from other sources. You can use one of the following scripts by adding one of the lines to your common.js:

importScript('User:ZooFari/licensereviewer.js'); // stable script for reviewing images from any kind of source OR

Hi, that's great, thank you! --Niklem (talk) 12:14, 17 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Niklem, you changed 6 photos of me form ..markovichianus.... to ...marcovichianus... in consequence of changing the page and the Category from k --> c . In fact in F.E and BioLib and ... the spelling is with c, that is why myself asked for the k --> c. In the meantime I discussed the problem at two competent places (french Monde des Insectes and German Wikipedia) The result in both cases: korrekt is k. Therefore I think it best, we had the photos on a page with Endophloeus markovichianus and a second page Endophloeus marcovichianus redirected to Endophloeus markovichianus. Than everybody could find the photos with the correct name a n d the widespread wrong spelling. Same argumentation for Category:Endophloeus markovichianus. (In my recherches I was told, that in Russian c and k is the same thing anyway) Lot of work, perhaps you would do it? Otherwise tell me, then I can ask someone else. Thanks, --Siga (talk) 14:18, 22 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Siga. May I wonder if it is arranged with Schofför, who has requested initial renaming? --Niklem (talk) 20:06, 22 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
No, its me who asked initial renaming, but if you want I will ask Schofför to do re-renaming --Siga (talk) 07:53, 23 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Alright, it's done. --Niklem (talk) 11:30, 23 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
The 6 photos, that's perfect. I owe you a beer. But the Category should also be Category:Endophloeus markovichianus and a page Endophloeus marcovichianus should exist and be directed to a page Endophloeus markovichianus with the Category: Endophloeus markovichianus. With that every form of spelling is satisfied. I cannot do that myself or I dare not, being not experienced. Of course I will alter the rest, concerning my photos and their use.--Siga (talk) 14:37, 23 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Now I am satisfied 200%. No more sleepless night. Thanks a lot. --Siga (talk) 14:52, 23 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Alright, glad to be helpful :-) --Niklem (talk) 14:53, 23 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Question

Hi, may I know why I can't nominate wrong categories for deletion ([1], [2])?--Δαβίδ (talk) 18:02, 27 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. May I, in my turn, know why do you request deletion of non-empty categories? --Niklem (talk) 18:06, 27 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
At first overcategorization, second is a oringinal research in title of category. And please take soma actions against that user, because he reverts my edits without certain explainations.--Δαβίδ (talk) 18:09, 27 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I believe you should state your request on COM:CFD. And I neither have sufficient rights for taking any actions on anyone on Commons, nor see any need for doing it with the user who reverts faulty actions. --Niklem (talk) 18:17, 27 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
That user is reverting my edits, removing templates, I've done request as you said but he reverts my edit again.--Δαβίδ (talk) 18:32, 27 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Why carrying on the edit war? Try asking admins for help. --Niklem (talk) 18:38, 27 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Unidentified policy?

  • What's the story on all these "Unidentifiable people" AfDs? The phrase "Unidentifiable people" doesn't appear in COM:EDUSE and if it did, it would be a major new and unjustified prohibition on content on Commons. Smallbones (talk) 17:37, 30 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
    Well, nobody said that this phrase should be in COM:EDUSE or wheresoever. And of course there is no such policy. All these images are, in my humble opinion, out of project scope, as they may be treated as "private image collections, e.g. private party photos, <...> collection of holiday snaps and so on" or "files that add nothing educationally distinct to the collection of images we already hold". And by meaning that the people depicted are unidentifiable, I'm only appealing to common sense: since people depicted most likely will not ever be identified, and the images contain nothing special and valuable for educational purposes, there is not much need of them. --Niklem (talk) 17:54, 30 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Picture of the Year 2013 R2 Announcement

Round 2 of Picture of the Year 2013 is open!

2012 Picture of the Year: A pair of European Bee-eaters in Ariège, France.

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 »]

An offering for our new administrator from your comrades...

Niklem, congratulations! You now have administrator rights on Commons. Please take a moment to read the Commons:Administrators page and watchlist related pages (in particular Commons:Administrators' noticeboard and its subpages), before launching yourself into page deletions, page protections, account blockings or modifications of protected pages. The majority of the actions of administrators can be reversed by the other admins, except for history merges which must thus be treated with particular care. Have a look at the list of Gadgets (on the bottom there are the ones specifically for admins – however, for example the UserMessages are very helpful too).

Please feel free to join us on IRC: #wikimedia-commons webchat on irc.libera.chat. There is also a channel for Commons admins, which may be useful for more sensitive topics, or coordination among administrators: #wikimedia-commons-admin webchat.

You may find Commons:Guide to adminship to be useful reading. You can find the admin backlog overview at COM:AB.

Please also check or add your entry to the List of administrators and the related lists by language and date it references.

If you want to keep your adminship, you need both to sign at Commons:Administrators/Inactivity section/Aug-Sep 2016 within 30 days of today's date, and also to make at least five further admin actions in the following six months.

De-adminship

Hi Niklem — in line with the above, I'd like to let you know that the admin inactivity run for August-September 2016 has now finished. As you had failed to indicate willingness to retain your admin privileges or to perform the required number of admin actions, I submitted a request on Meta-Wiki to have your adminship revoked as required by our inactivity policy. A Wikimedia steward has already attended to this request, and I added you to the autopatrolled user group as you are a trusted and experienced member of the Commons community. I'd like to use this opportunity to thank you for the many years of your service to Commons; while it is disappointing that you're no longer as active as you used to be, I hope you will come back to us one day and will continue contributing to the project. Of course, please do feel free to re-apply for adminship when this happens :-) Thanks again! odder (talk) 10:34, 15 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. Actually, I used to be image reviewer, file mover and patroller before getting an adminship. --Niklem (talk) 13:51, 15 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Niklem, thanks for getting back to me about this. I have now added you back to the image reviewer, file mover and patroller user groups. I understand you want to continue contributing to Commons in these roles, and I can't stress enough how much I appreciate your continued help. Many thanks, odder (talk) 19:29, 16 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hello

I am interested in using your photo of Gay Street, taken on July 29, 2010 for my Website and want to make sure that it is free to be used. I notice that the author of this photo is someone named Aurelien Guichard and that you are the person who uploaded it to Wiki. I wrote to Aurelien Guichard asking his permission to use this photo but am also contacting you since, I am not sure who is the person that should provide the ultimate answer, the author or the uploader? If you can provide me with any information you can to help me know if I can use this photo, I would greatly appreciate it.

If I were to use, I would include a credit/link to the author or Wiki on my page.

I hope to hear from you soon.

Thank you.

This media was probably deleted.
A file that you have uploaded to Wikimedia Commons, File:Flag of St. Petersburg, Florida.gif, was missing information about where it comes from or who created it, which is needed to verify its copyright status. The file probably has been deleted. If you've got all required information, request undeletion providing this information and the link to the concerned file ([[:File:Flag of St. Petersburg, Florida.gif]]).

If you created the content yourself, enter {{Own}} as the source. If you did not add a licensing template, you must add one. You may use, for example, {{self|GFDL|cc-by-sa-all}} or {{Cc-zero}} to release certain rights to your work.

If someone else created the content, or if it is based on someone else's work, 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.

Добрый день! По поводу данной правки. У данной категории нет вообще категорий, относящейся к Сбербанку. Возможно Category:Sberbank buildings in Moscow не отражает на 100% содержимое, но какая-то связанная со Сбербанком обязательно должна быть. --Brateevsky {talk} 06:34, 29 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Здравствуйте. Category:Suvorov Plaza. --Niklem (talk) 08:30, 29 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
ОК, такая категоризация устроит. Вопросов нет! --Brateevsky {talk} 08:53, 29 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Warning sign
This file may be deleted.
A file that you have uploaded to Wikimedia Commons, File:Kirschindelphi (cropped).jpg, 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!

Important message for file movers

A community discussion has been closed where the consensus was to grant all file movers the suppressredirect user right. This will allow file movers to not leave behind a redirect when moving files and instead automatically have the original file name deleted. Policy never requires you to suppress the redirect, suppression of redirects is entirely optional.

Possible acceptable uses of this ability:

  • To move recently uploaded files with an obvious error in the file name where that error would not be a reasonable redirect. For example: moving "Sheep in a tree.jpg" to "Squirrel in a tree.jpg" when the image does in fact depict a squirrel.
  • To perform file name swaps.
  • When the original file name contains vandalism. (File renaming criterion #5)

Please note, this ability should be used only in certain circumstances and only if you are absolutely sure that it is not going to break the display of the file on any project. Redirects should never be suppressed if the file is in use on any project. When in doubt, leave a redirect. If you forget to suppress the redirect in case of file name vandalism or you are not fully certain if the original file name is actually vandalism, leave a redirect and tag the redirect for speedy deletion per G2.

The malicious or reckless breaking of file links via the suppressredirect user right is considered an abuse of the file mover right and is grounds for immediate revocation of that right. This message serves as both a notice that you have this right and as an official warning. Questions regarding this right should be directed to administrators. --Majora (talk) 21:36, 7 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
