Wrong language code

"File:Malay_macrolanguage_sphere_(Q9237,_ms,_msa).svg" / "Malay sphere"

Hi, This might benefit from a rename (though it is accurate as-is), but "macrolanguage" is not a good solution. There's no such thing in language/linguistics: it's a bookkeeping term in Ethnologue and ISO for either of two contrary situations: (a) a single language that for political reasons they've divided up, or (b) several languages that for political reasons they've lumped together. It's not a coherent concept. E.g. the Chinese "macrolanguage" is a language family consisting of a hundred or so languages, while the Malay "macrolanguage" is a single language with two standard forms that go by different names. These are equivalent to claiming that Romance or Slavic is a "language", on the one hand, or that British, American and Australian are different languages on the other. Anyway, a change of name might be desirable, but I'm sure we can come up with something more accurate. Kwamikagami (talk) 06:31, 18 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@User:Kwamikagami It is a macrolanguage.

> we can come up with something more accurate

You did not come with anything more accurate. Taylor 49 (talk) 17:12, 20 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

If you want to move the file, then it's up to you to come up with something more accurate. Come on, you're not a newbie, you know how this works.

"Macrolanguage" is an ISO bureaucratic term, not a linguistic one. There are no "macrolanguages" in the real world, only within the context of ISO. Since this is not an ISO topic, "macrolanguage" is not an acceptable term. "Malay" is, per multiple linguistic sources. I have supplied an accurate term. If you can come up with a better one, great, but it should be as accurate. Kwamikagami (talk) 17:49, 20 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Please take it to discussion for a better term. The fact that we had a nationalist denying that Indonesian is a standardized form of Malay should not cause us to bowdlerize Commons. Kwamikagami (talk) 17:52, 20 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop being rude and please stop edit warring. There is no "single obvious Malay", and the name I suggest is indeed better. Taylor 49 (talk) 18:02, 20 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not being rude, but you are being hypocritical if you demand others not edit-war when you're the one trying to move the file against consensus. Several people now have explained to you that your proposed name is not an improvement. Kwamikagami (talk) 08:39, 21 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I have never moved a file against consensus. Taylor 49 (talk) 23:19, 24 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Malaysian Malay map

As far as I know, we don't have a map for this topic. The closest might be File:Malay language Spoken Area Map v1.png, where the green is Malaysian. Or you could just use a map of Malaysia.

File:Idioma malayo.png is something different. It's part of a series of maps with Spanish names, all I believe by the same author, that shows the native range of Malay. I won't vouch for its accuracy, but what it purports to show is where people (mostly Malays) have traditionally spoken Malay as their native language.

"Malayic" is something else again: it's the language family that includes Malay, but also Minangkabau, Iban, etc. Kwamikagami (talk) 00:31, 25 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

> "where the green is Malaysian"

Indeed. Unfortunately the non-green colours are still visible making this to an image of the macrolanguage including Indonesian, not of Malaysian Malay. Taylor 49 (talk) 00:35, 25 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I suspect we have no map because it would be coterminous with Malaysia itself. Similarly, I don't know that we have a basic map of American English or Australian English, or Sweden Swedish. For any of those, we might use a map of the country. Kwamikagami (talk) 00:43, 25 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

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. FitIndia ^Semi-retired 16:52, 9 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Taylor 49, 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.

Flagmap of Brittany Name Change

Hi, I recently wanted a name change to be reverted on my Flagmap of Brittany file. Take a look at my page! I have numerous Flagmaps which follow the naming format of the original name: Country-Flagmap. Changing it makes it out of place since I used the same method and guideline to create it. It does not follow the "Flag_map_of_Country" structure. If you want you can create it using my base map with thicker border and different cropping method but current one is not that. So please revert the change. Best. Kamran.nef (talk) 21:24, 9 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@User:Kamran.nef: Hi ... At your page I can see files having "flagmap" (lowercase) and files having "Flagmap" (UPPERCASE). The file had recently got renamed from File:Brittany-Flagmap.svg to File:Flag map of Brittany.svg i accordance with Category:Flag maps of regions of France and Category:Flag maps of Europe. There are gazillions of such files around. In order to prevent large-scale move warring, please take up the topic at Commons:Village_pump and try to establish a consensus about a naming scheme for such files. 16:35, 10 August 2024 (UTC)

I made a topic at Commons:Village_pump and I put the files with lowercase f for a name change so they all will be consistent. As I said in Commons:Village_pump all my maps use black strokes for the border regardless of the flag colors. This coincidently makes some of the black and white flags similar in both sets. But now, with the name change that was requested for Brittany, my set lost its consistency. I would appreciate it if you revert the name. Kamran.nef (talk) 13:32, 11 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

"Jax 2"

Hey, you replied to my deletion request of "Jax 2" trying to speedy keep it. I don't really know how this website works but basically I uploaded that pic many years ago and I had my real name as my username and it still shows up when you search my full name and I'm not comfortable with that.

Are you able to vote it for deletion instead or is that not how this works

Thanks anyway hope this clears things up 1.152.108.1 19:08, 25 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Privacy concerns have been addressed by means of suppression, no need to delete the file. If your former username is the problem, then it can be resolved by other means too (get your talk pages deleted). Taylor 49 (talk) 20:50, 25 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

cheers bro worked like a charm have a good one 2403:5814:C192:0:4959:D28F:FA7A:1C3B 21:49, 25 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Noinclude

I can't remember the exact conversation right now and I could be misremembering, but I think noinclude is added by a bot these days. Adamant1 (talk) 20:07, 2 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Please do use the <noinclude>...</noinclude>. I don't know whether there is a bot fixing this error, but it is indeed an error causing miscategorization. Taylor 49 (talk) 18:43, 3 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I was just looking at some DRs from a few months ago and it looks like the noinclude thing was added by a bot in those cases. So it might just take a while or maybe there's something wrong with the bot. I'll look into it when I have the time. I doubt it the code is added immediately anyway though since that's not how bots work and I'm not going to waste the time doing it if the code will be added eventually anyway. Maybe give it a while for the bot to run. There's no way to know if the code will be added by the bot or not when your added it the second I open the DRs. --Adamant1 (talk) 18:54, 3 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Artificial stupidity

Hi. I've noticed you commenting a few times on AI-related deletion discussions to say that an image should be deleted (or even speedily deleted) because it is AS (Artificial Stupidity), with no further reason given.

I'm not really sure what you mean when you say that, beyond the general idea that you think AI is stupid. There's no policy link at COM:AS. Could you be clearer about what aspect makes it deletable? Or are you just saying that you agree with all pre-existing arguments for deletion and by the way also think that AI is stupid? Belbury (talk) 14:47, 29 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
