- Hello, I need the autopatrol role to be able to contribute to the Lingua Libre project, a French Wikimedia project, where you record your voice saying a list of words, and it automatically upload it to Wikimedia Commons. The problem is that the upload is limited to 400 words/h because of the Wikimedia Commons upload limitation, this is why I am asking for the autopatrol role. PS : Yesterday an admin denied my request and said i should use a bot instead, I can't use a bot to contribute to the LinguaLibre project, it is not an automated task, every word is recorded manually by me. Thanks a lot. Mecanautes (talk) 13:30, 8 January 2021 (UTC)

- I am trying to add recordings to wiki pages of classical compositions, e.g. en:Symphony No. 9 (Dvořák). In particular, I would like to upload permissible MP3 files from en:IMSLP, e.g. the DuPage recording here, which is licensed under Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0. I could convert those files to .ogg, but converting a lossy format into another lossy format will result in further quality degradation. I am familiar with licensing, i.e. that CC NC, ND, Non-PD US are not allowed on Commons. Thank you. intforce (talk) 17:15, 10 January 2021 (UTC)

- I've uploaded several thousand audio recordings and have several thousand more to upload, so I'd like to have autopatrol so my uploads don't add to "new files" list. The audio files are pronunciations of Swahili words that I'm doing with a friend (with proper CC BY-SA licensing and OTRS approval). Apart from these recordings, I've only made minor contributions to Wikimedia projects (my minor Wikipedia contributions go back several years, though). I am, however, a well known open source developer who knows about licensing, community, etc. Thank you. MartinMichlmayr (talk) 13:27, 12 January 2021 (UTC)

- @Jeff G.: I learned several important things from those batch of files. Firstly, I learned that just because something seems like free media because of a statement like "intended for media and public use and may be freely reproduced" does not necessarily mean that a piece of media actually belongs on Wikimedia Commons. Knowing specific copyright licenses is important, and a statement like that won't actually provide you with the license. Secondly, I learned that, especially when dealing with media made after 1926, one should understand the reason why a piece of media has its license. It is important to know this, so that one can identify if a piece of media has been labeled with false copyright information. Thirdly, and most importantly, I learned where to ask questions about copyright. I have learned quite a bit about copyright through my days on Wikimedia, but I am far from a copyright expert. Now, when I encounter something with questionable copyright status, I know to go to this page, as I have done a few times now. — RoundSquare (talk) 15:14, 5 February 2021 (UTC)

- For the former one, I've added a more precise license template, it's my fault to not add it immediately when I upload the screenshot, sorry; for the latter one, I guess it's fine? Page 24 of the PDF has all the information about the files used. Similar examples are in the issues of Category:Qiuwen. —— Eric Liu(留言.百科用戶頁) 14:52, 13 June 2021 (UTC)

- Hi rubin16, Unfortunately as far as I'm aware it doesn't as
- A) I'm a Patroller (not autopatroller but more or less the same thing) and I'n not able to upload them
- and B) I asked here and was told I was correct (that MP3 files cannot be uploaded and being (auto)patroller make no difference (and I do recall somewhere being told they cannot be uploaded due to copyright issues (think it was something about the coding or codecs being copyrighted))
- so I personally would've declined purely on the basis that they want this for something that it doesn't actually do or help with.... Thanks, –Davey2010Talk 08:50, 20 July 2021 (UTC)
- Never tried it myself, have seen it on Commons:File types. I will dig deeper rubin16 (talk) 09:57, 20 July 2021 (UTC)
- Hi rubin16, FWIW there was a user group years ago called MP3 uploaders[1] which got renamed to Commons:Extended uploaders (I don't know if the rename had something to do with MP3 files or whether it was for another reason entirely)
- Unless I'm doing it wrong I did search for ".mp3" and ".mp4" and it only brings back images with either in them whereas if you search ".ogg" or .webm" it brings up audio/video files.
- In regards to the users error above and the page you linked too - My biggest hunch is that maybe years ago MP3/4 files were allowed here, at some point they stopped being accepted - but nothing was updated ?, I've never known those files to be accepted here and honestly I don't ever remember uploading them. Many Thanks, Warm Regards, –Davey2010Talk 10:18, 20 July 2021 (UTC)
