Tip: Categorizing images
[edit]
Thanks a lot for contributing to the Wikimedia Commons! Here's a tip to make your uploads more useful: Why not add some categories to describe them? This will help more people to find and use them.
Here's how:
1) If you're using the UploadWizard, you can add categories to each file when you describe it. Just click "more options" for the file and add the categories which make sense:
2) You can also pick the file from your list of uploads, edit the file description page, and manually add the category code at the end of the page.
[[Category:Category name]]
For example, if you are uploading a diagram showing the orbits of comets, you add the following code:
[[Category:Astronomical diagrams]]
[[Category:Comets]]
This will make the diagram show up in the categories "Astronomical diagrams" and "Comets".
When picking categories, try to choose a specific category ("Astronomical diagrams") over a generic one ("Illustrations").
Thanks again for your uploads! More information about categorization can be found in Commons:Categories, and don't hesitate to leave a note on the help desk.BotMultichillT 06:23, 2 June 2009 (UTC)

Помогите с лицензированием

- Доброго времени суток! Тут описана процедура: Commons:OTRS/ru. Но вообще в Википедии можно более подробно почитать: Википедия:OTRS и Википедия:Получение разрешений. Пересказывать, думаю, смысла нет, там написано понятно. Если будут вопросы - пишите.— Redboston 18:41, 26 July 2012 (UTC)

Фото с сайта Госдумы
[edit]Добрый день, Вы выставили на удаление фото с сайта Госдумы подобные этому File:Kostunov Ilya Evgenievich.jpg. Их можно перенести в русскую википедию? --Moreorless (talk) 15:31, 3 January 2013 (UTC)
- Доброго времени суток ещё раз! Боюсь, что нет. Как я уже сказал, "условия использования" на сайте ГД не являются свободной лицензией - там нет свободы копирования и свободы коммерческого использования. А разница между Викискладом и Википедией в отношении картинок сводится к тому, что на Викисклад принимаются картинки по fair use (т.н. добросовестное использование), но одним из критериев такого ДИ является принципиальная невозможность получить свободное изображение. По сути, ДИ применяется только к фото умерших людей (новые получить нельзя), за редким исключением (вроде непубличных личностей и т.п.). Фотографии здравствующих и заседающих ныне депутатов, как видите, не попадают под эти исключения. Есть, пожалуй, ещё некоторые моменты со свободой панорамы: в Википедию переносят то, что не приемлют на Викискладе из-за отсутствия свободы панорамы в России, но это касается зданий, сооружений, прочих архитектурных штук. Наилучшим выходом из ситуации будет написание запроса в госдуму письма с тем, чтобы они дали разрешение использовать их изображения по cc-by-sa. И добавить, что, мол, президент и правительство такое разрешение уже дали. Не сочтите выставление на удаление фотографий за проявление личной неприязни или чего-то подобного. Просто у нас в России такие законы. С наступившим вас Новым годом! Улачи!— Redboston 00:38, 4 January 2013 (UTC)

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 »]

Thanks for uploading File:Putin, Shtepo and Bugakov 2004-03-11.jpg. I notice that the file page either doesn't contain enough information about the license or it contains contradictory information about the license, so the copyright status is unclear.
If you created this file yourself, then you must provide a valid copyright tag. For example, you can tag it with {{self|GFDL|cc-by-sa-all}} to release it under the multi-license GFDL plus Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike All-version license or you can tag it with {{PD-self}} to release it into the public domain. (See Commons:Copyright tags for the full list of license tags that you can use.) If you did not create the file yourself or if it is a derivative of another work that is possibly subject to copyright protection, then you must specify where you found it (e.g. usually a link to the web page where you got it), you must provide proof that it has a license that is acceptable for Commons (e.g. usually a link to the terms of use for content from that page), and you must add an appropriate license tag. If you did not create the file yourself and the specific source and license information is not available on the web, you must obtain permission through the VRT system and follow the procedure described there. Note that any unsourced or improperly licensed files will be deleted one week after they have been marked as lacking proper information, as described in criteria for deletion. If you have uploaded other files, please confirm that you have provided the proper information for those files, too.

Hi Redboston, you're now a filemover. When moving files please respect the following advice:
- Use the CommonsDelinker link in the {{Rename}} template to order a bot to replace all ocurrences of the old title with the new one. Or, if there was no rename-request, please use the Move & Replace-tab.
- Please leave a redirect behind unless you have a valid reason not to do so. Other projects, including those using InstantCommons, might be using the file even though they don't show up in the global usage. Deleting the redirects would break their file references. Please see this section of the file rename guideline for more information.
- Please know and follow the file rename guidelines.

Перевод сайта мэрии Волгограда на свободную лицензию
[edit]Добрый вечер! В 2011 году вам удалось убедить администрацию Волгоградской области перевести материалы своего интернет-сайта на лицензию CC BY 3.0. Через 2 года на эту же лицензию был переведён сайт областной думы, но администрация Волгограда не стала идти по этому пути. Из 15 городов-миллионников России лишь у трёх - Москвы, Нижнего Новгорода и Казани, материалы их официальных сайтов распространяются по лицензии CC BY 4.0. Что вы скажете по этому поводу? MasterRus21thCentury (talk) 15:19, 7 February 2022 (UTC)
- Добрый день. На сайте обладминистрации тогда я видел много потенциально полезных иллюстраций, которые хотелось загрузить на склад. Аналогично и с думой. Сайт же мэрии не кажется мне интересным с этой точки зрения. Не помню, чтобы находил там интересные иллюстрации. С этой точки зрения даже сайт гордумы поинтереснее, даже собирался написать. Потом как-то удалось поговорить на эту тему с одним из депутатов гордумы, он фанат пиратской партии, интересуется свободными лицензиями. Но когда я ему предложил подумать про то, как перевести сайт гордумы на свободную лицензию, то он сказал что-то в духе "если нужны будут конкретные фотографии - пишите". Понятно, что конкретно он там не решает, но сам подход меня ввёл в печаль, после этого желание пропало. Да и, повторюсь, не вижу иллюстраций, которых действительно не хватает Википедии.— Redboston 15:32, 7 February 2022 (UTC)
- По электронной почте вы не пробовали отправить обращение? Так потом будет проще выслать в систему VRTS. MasterRus21thCentury (talk) 15:43, 7 February 2022 (UTC)
- Нет, я никак не пробовал. Сайт обладминистрации менял домен. После чего я к ним обращался с просьбой новое письмо выслать, с новым доменом. Они два раза присылали ерунду. Типа согласны, но в тексте не то, что надо. Хотя я им прямо писал, какой нужен текст. В итоге они сами как-то решили лицензировать сайт по СС. такое непонимание чиновниками элементарных вещей тоже не прибавляет желания писать новые обращения. — Redboston 15:49, 7 February 2022 (UTC)
- Но сейчас же на сайте администрации Волгограда разнообразие материалов тоже имеется, как и на сайте администрации области и областной думы. Поэтому в принципе можете направить письмо в Комитет информационной политики после заполнения соответствующей формы. MasterRus21thCentury (talk) 19:03, 7 February 2022 (UTC)

Шаблон
[edit]Скажите пожалуйста, зачем в категориях, относящихся к Волгограду, вы используете шаблон для категорий Волгоградской области, результатом чего становится абсолютно неверная категоризация? —Well-Informed Optimist (talk) 07:50, 13 February 2022 (UTC)
- Где именно? — Redboston 15:08, 13 February 2022 (UTC)
- Понял. Невнимателен был, думал, это для Волгограда.— Redboston 15:21, 13 February 2022 (UTC) Спасибо за исправление моих ошибок. Впредь обещаю быть внимательнее.— Redboston 17:35, 13 February 2022 (UTC)

В описании правки с итогом указано: Не возбраняется повторная номинация, если автор этих карт будет найден и он умер после 1941 года. См. также User_talk:Abzeronow#Commons:Deletion_requests/Pocket_Atlas_of_the_USSR,_11th_ed.,_1940. Так что просто смело повторно выносите тот же набор файлов, указав на найденную информацию, а также напомните "забывчивым" администраторам комбинацию правил COM:EVID и COM:PCP.
