Kosovo Topo Map Request

Hello I would like to ask you if you could make a version of kosovo map in albanian as well as serbian language?--109.237.32.200 15:10, 2 October 2011 (UTC)

Hello, nowadays I'm very busy. So maybe later... Making maps are too complicated. Photo Balkan 16:47, 15 October 2011 (UTC)

File:Taşlı Köprü - Vıcıtırın 01.jpg

You image is still here, under name File:Vojinovića Bridge, Vučitrn historical bridge.jpg. Taşlı Köprü is misleading, as this is not only stone bridge in vučitrn, but bridge with its own name, Vojinovića Bridge. And i added that, plus, Vučitrn historical bridge. By File renaming criteria #3, this is valid move. --WhiteWriter ^speaks 20:21, 25 March 2012 (UTC)

Dear WhiteWriter, I upload it on its native name. "Taşlı Köprü" is this bridges name in modern Turkish and old Ottoman Turkish. Its not misleading. Most Vojinovića is its Serbian name and is used in English. So this bridge has got many names, of course. I chose one of them (Taşlı Köprü). Its very simple and very clear. I don't want to argue because there is no need. Criterias is here: 1# There is no uploader requested, 2# Name is suitable, 3# Name is not misleading name, it is one of native name, 4# Name is meaningful, 5# There is no error, 6# There is no need to harmonizing, 7# Name doesn't contain any pejorative, offensive or crude language items.

OK, name was restored back. I understand you, it just looked poor with that 01, and as per translation... OK, all best! --WhiteWriter ^speaks 13:45, 27 March 2012 (UTC)

Thank you. Also maybe I understand why you did that renaming. You thought that köprü is a name for "bridge" in Turkish and Taşlı Köprü must be just a descriptive name. But it is native name and as Geagea refers "Files should NOT be renamed only because the filename is not English". Now problem is solved. Good day. Photo Balkan (talk) 8:33, 28 March 2012 (UTC)

Following your misleading about this file, i asked rename now, and it was renamed, per commons guidelines. So, file was NOT renamed only because the filename is not English, so if you push up that argument again, you would only disturb wiki to push your POV. It was renamed as it was misleading, wrong, erroneous, and false. Thank you. --WhiteWriter ^speaks 19:02, 20 June 2013 (UTC)

I saw what you want to do. I just observed what will going on, so I was silent. Again and again I saw that your aim is political and impatient. WhiteWriter, make editing, uploading etc. But don't disturb again about this type fanatical issues. Because it's enough. "Taşlı Köprü" is one of its modern names. Do not violate anything. Commons has got many problems, issues and also we solved it, this file's name or something else is not discussion point. Ciao. Photo Balkan (talk) 12:16, 22 June 2013 (UTC)
