Lìnii guida pi candidari na mmàggini

[edit]

È mpurtanti lèggiri li lìnii guida prima di candidari na mmàggini.

A sèguitu è ripurtatu un riassuntu dê punti essinziali pi candidari e valutari li mmàggini candidati:

  • Risuluzzioni - Li fotugrafìi cu na risuluzzioni nfiriuri a 2 miliuna di pixel vennu giniralmenti rifiutati e livati a eccizzioni di mutivi cuntrari di mpurtanza particulari. Si nota ca li mmàggini cu risuluzzioni 1600 x 1200 hannu 1.92 Mpx, appena nfiriuri ô lìmiti mìnimu di 2Mpx.
Arricurdamu ca li mmàggini carricati nta Commons vennu taliati nun sulu nta schermi tradizziunali di PC ma sunnu utilizzati puru pi stampa e visualizzazzioni nta schermi a risuluzzioni àuta. Nun putemu certu privìdiri quali ticnoluggìi vennu utilizzati ntô futuru quinni è mpurtanti ca li mmàggini scigghiuti pâ vitrina hàianu na risuluzzioni quantu chiù àuta è pussìbbili.
  • Scanzioni - È cunzigghiàbbili siguiri la guida â scanzioni, ca pruponi suggirimenti pi l'ottinimentu di mmàggini ottimali
  • Focu - ovviamenti ogni oggettu significativu dâ mmàggini havi a èssiri difinutu bonu e a focu.
  • Primu pianu e sfunnu - Oggetti n primìssimu pianu o di sfunnu ponnu distràiri dâ vista di l'oggettu principali dâ mmàggini. È lu casu di cuntrullari si quarchi elimentu n primu pianu nun copri nuddu elimentu mpurtanti e ca lu sfunnu nun leva l'attinzioni e renni cunfusa la mmàggini (p'esempiu evitari ca c'è na luci forti ê spaddi di na facci)
  • Qualità ginirali - li mmàggini candidati hannu a èssiri di qualità tècnica àuta.
  • Li manipulazzioni diggitali nun hannu a èssiri effittuati pi ngannari, ma vannu usati sulu limitatamenti e cu cura pi currèggiri difetti fotugràfici. Li manipulazzioni cumunimenti accittati sunnu lu ritagghiu e la currizzioni di pruspittiva, fucali, culuri e espusizzioni. Manipulazzioni chiù estisi, comu pò èssiri la livata di n'elimentu di distrazzioni dô sfunnu, vannu chiaramenti discrivuti ntô testu di discrizzioni pi menzu dô template {{Retouched picture}}. Manipulazzioni nun discrivuti o discrivuti n manera nzufficienti nun pirmèttinu la candidatura â vitrina.
  • Valuri - lu nostru obbiettivu principali è elèggiri li mmàggini cô maiuri valuri rispettu a tutti li sò sìmili. Li mmàggini hannu a èssiri n quarchi manera spiciali, pirciò teni accura:
    • quasi tutti li scurati sunnu esteticamenti piacèvuli, nfatti tanti mmàggini sunnu sìmili a l'àutri,
    • li scatti nutturni sunnu gradèvuli ma giniralmenti li fotu scattati di jornu ammùstranu tanti chiù dittagghi,
    • nun tutti li fotu beddi hannu n rialtà un valuri ca nun è esclusivamenti pirsunali.

Pi quantu arriguarda l'aspettu tècnicu avemu comu paràmitri l'espusizzioni, la cumpusizzioni, lu cuntrollu dô muvimentu e la prufunnità di campu.

  • L'espusizzioni s'arrifirisci â cumminazzioni ntra tempu d'espusizzioni e diaframma. Sta cumminazzioni pirmetti giniralmenti d'aviri na curva di tonu ch'è n gradu di rapprisintari ùmmiri e luci cu un dittagghiu accittàbbili. Sta curva veni ditta latitùdini di posa. Na mmàggini pò èssiri ntâ banna vascia, media o àuta. Li fotucàmiri diggitali (e li sò fotu) hannu na latitùdini di posa chiù stritta dâ màchini a pillìcula. La mancanza di dittagghi ntê zoni d'ùmmira nun è nicissariamenti na carattirìstica nigativa. Nfatti chista pò èssiri parti di l'effettu addisiatu, mentri zoni ampii eccissivamenti suvraesposti ponnu distràiri la vista.
  • La cumpusizzioni s'arrifirisci â distribbuzzioni di l'elimenti ntâ mmàggini. La “Règula dê Terzi” è na lìnia guida bona pâ cumpusizzioni e rèdita tantu dê studi di disignu. Lu cuncettu principali cunzìdira la mmàggini divisa cu dui lìnii orizzuntali e dui virticali, ca divìdinu la mmàggini n tri parti. Giniralmenti si l'oggettu veni cintratu s'havi n'effettu picca ntirissanti, mentri si l'oggettu veni pusizziunatu nta unu dê punti di ntiressi, ovveru la ntirsizzioni dê quattru lìnii, s'otteni n'effettu dicisamenti megghiu. Li lìnii di l'orizzonti nfatti nun avìssiru a èssiri pusizziunati ntô centru, pirchì tagghiàssiru la fotu a mità; è nveci prifirìbbili scègghiri una dê lìnii orizzuntali. Cumplissivamenti abbisogna tènniri a criari na mmàggini dinàmica.
  • Lu cuntrollu dô muvimentu s'arrifirisci â manera ca veni rapprisintatu lu muvimentu ntâ mmàggini. Lu muvimentu pò èssiri bluccatu (siguitu dâ fotucàmira) oppuru pò èssiri lassatu scùrriri, tuttavìa l'oggettu principali dâ mmàggini havi a èssiri visìbbili. Nudda dê dui tècnichi è megghia di l'àutra, l'arrinisciuta bona addipenni esclusivamenti dô tipu d'effettu arricircatu. P'esempiu, fotugrafannu na vittura di cursa c'appari stàtica n rilazzioni ô sfunnu, ca nveci scurri ntô retru, s'otteni l'oggettu principali nta na cunnizzioni stàtica mentri lu sfunnu crea lu senzu di muvimentu. (sta tècnica è chiamata "panning"). D'àutra parti, fotugrafannu un jucaturi di basket n sàutu, bluccatu n rilazzioni a tuttu lu restu dô sfunnu, s'ottinissi un scattu bonu propiu pâ posa nun naturali.
  • La prufunnità di campu (PdC o DOF dô ngrisi depth of field) è la distanza davanti e darreri lu suggettu principali c'appari nìtida (a focu). Stu paràmitru veni scigghiutu a sicunna dê nicissità d'ogni mmàggini e pò parimenti migghiurari o mpijurari la qualità di na fotugrafìa. Giniralmenti veni utilizzata na PdC arriduciuta pi mèttiri ô centru di l'attinzioni lu suggettu principali, siparànnulu di tuttu lu restu dô sfunnu. Nveci veni utilizzata na PdC granni p'enfatizzari la prufunnità di na mmàggini. L'obbiettivi grannangulari n gèniri na PdC granni mentri li tiliobbiettivi nn'hannu una dicisamenti arriduciuta. N granni parti la PdC addipenni dâ grapitura dô diaframma: aumenta cô diminuiri dâ grapitura e viciversa.

Pi quantu arriguarda l'aspettuo gràficu pigghiamu nveci n cunzidirazzioni nitidizza, prufunnità, culuri, supirficii, pruspittiva, valanzamentu, prupurzioni, ecc.

  • La nitidizza s'arrifirisci a lìnii di cuntornu dô suggettu principali.
  • La prufunnità s'arrifirisci â qualità di l'aspettu tridiminziunali dô suggettu. Chistu s'otteni suprattuttu tràmiti na lluminazzioni latirali adiguata (comu chidda dâ prima matinata o dô tardu pumiriggiu) e nun esclusivamenti fruntali, ô fini d'evitari l'appiattimentu dô suggettu.
  • Lu culuri è n'elimentu assai mpurtanti e nun havi a èssiri nè troppu nè picca sàturu.
  • La supirficii s'arrifirisci â qualità dâ supirficii di l'oggetti fotugrafati.
  • La pruspittiva s'arrifirisci a l'angulazzioni dâ quali fu scattata la fotugrafìa. Chista crea na serii di ritti mmagginarii ca sèguinu li spìguli paralleli di l'oggetti e si ncòntranu ntôn puntu ca pò èssiri dintra o fora la mmàggini.
  • Lu valanzamentu s'arrifirisci â dispusizzioni di l'oggetti ntâ mmàggini e pò èssiri equilibbratu o pòniri pisu maiuri versu na dirizzioni.
  • La prupurzioni s'arrifirisci â rilazzioni ntra li diminzioni di l'oggetti ô nternu dâ mmàggini. Giniralmenti si tenni a rapprisintari oggetti cu rilazzioni arriduciuta, ma na tècnica bona è chidda di rapprisintari l'oggetti di diminzioni minuri n manera chiù estisa, cuntrariamenti a quantu è n rialtà. P'esempiu, un ciuri nicu ca veni rapprisintatu chê stissi diminzioni di na muntagna granni: sta tècnica veni chiamata nvirsioni di scala.
Ovviamenti, nun tutti li carattirìstichi hannu a èssiri nicissariamenti prisenti. Li mmàggini ponnu èssiri giudicati sia pi na sula carattirìstica ca pi diversi carattirìstichi, macari cuntimpuraniamenti.
  • Significatu simmòlicu o rilivanza particulari …Li guerri d'opinioni ponnu accuminzari!…. Va arricurdatu ca na pèssima fotugrafìa dûn suggettu difficilìssimu di fotugrafari è sicuramenti megghiu di na mmàggini ordinaria e tradizziunali (comu na scurata cumuni).
Li mmàggini ponnu èssiri scigghiuti dûn fotògrafu o di n'ossirvaturi macari pi mutivi culturali, tinennu pirò sempri cuntu dô cuntestu dô scattu e nun di chiddu di l'ossirvaturi. Na mmàggini noltri pò "parrari" ê pirsuni e aviri la capacità d'evucari emuzzioni, ca tuttavìa nun hannu a èssiri nicissariamenti piacèvuli.

P'ottimizzari le pussibbilità di successu dê candidaturi dê tò mmàggini è cunzigghiàbbili lèggire li lìnii guida cumpleti.

  •  Comment Thank you for the nomination, Aristeas! I’m afraid though I fumbled the description and filename, as this image was taken at sunrise, not sunset… I assume it’s easier to change the filename after the nomination runs its course? It was a beautiful but very cold morning, I remember having to hike down the hill holding the camera and tripod, as my hands were too stiff too unzip the backpack :) —Julesvernex2 (talk) 17:45, 18 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
     Comment Such things just happen … Thank you for the correction, Julesvernex2! Yes, normally it’s easier to change the filename later, but to avoid any possible further confusion I have taken the liberty to rename both your image and this nomination right now (I hope I got all links right, too). – Aristeas (talk) 17:55, 18 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • +1 Great panning effect, but the tilt gives the impression the car is going up a hill. I will support this nomination if it is fixed. As the camera sensor is capable of more pixels, I assume the picture was cropped on both sizes? -- Basile Morin (talk) 01:18, 19 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • I genuinely don't know how accurate the tilt is, Donington park is reasonably hilly there but I think it's probably at least exaggerated. I personally like it to make it feel dynamic, but it might not be preferable for encyclopedic purposes. Because, as you say, I have plenty of space to straighten it in the crop, so I will add a straight version as an alternative. — Julian H.✈ 07:45, 19 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  1. Because I believe we should not offer this "honor" to a user who escapes their ban. The image should not become a POTD, nor decorate our galleries, and it's better if re-uses are limited.
  2. Like GRDN711 on the original nomination I agree the picture has a rather low wow factor. During the discussion on the FPC talk page, I was wondering if this photo had a chance to become a POTY finalist, and honestly believe not, because of the harsh light and strong shadows. Of course my subjective guess can be wrong, but in that case, it is another reason to delist, because the photo uploaded by a supposedly blocked user should definitely not enter the "Picture of the Year" competition to get such a reward.
Sorry for all those who liked this picture, and especially Cmao20 the impeccable nominator who suggested this photo in good faith and now finds himself a bit tarnished by the scandal. It's just bad luck.
Thanks, Radomianin, for the initiative -- Basile Morin (talk) 01:16, 17 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • I do feel like 'it's not a good enough photo to be FP' is probably not a fair reason to delist in this case, honestly. We should focus our discussion entirely on whether the photo should remain FP seeing it was taken by a banned sockpuppet user. The picture was only promoted a month ago and people had ample opportunity to vote on its quality at that time. Cmao20 (talk) 21:36, 17 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Dear Cmao20, you're right and I completely understand your instasfaction to hear today negative opinions being expressed when they had previously kept quiet. However, you can also understand 2 things, in this new situation: 1) all the previously tangential opinions no longer hesitate to express their reservations (this is my case personally, who had not supported) and similarly some who had supported may simply abstain this second time (if they don't oppose), 2) there is sometimes a form of natural lottery in a panel of daily voters on FPC. It is not always the same ones who vote, and the score can change depending on the arguments and influences. Look at the FPs renominated last time, some scores turned out to be very different. Example 17 may 2021 : score 7-3, then 13 January 2022 : score 13-1. How do you explain that? Or even more: score 7-4 then score 11-0. So there is a bit of random. Best regards -- Basile Morin (talk) 01:06, 18 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oh, I agree. The process is invariably a bit random and that’s unavoidable. And it’s not necessarily even a bad thing - it may result in some pictures failing that should probably have passed, and some passing that should have failed, but it averages out to the process generally working very well, and I do think we generally get a high standard of photos passing. I just think this delist request should be focussed on the matter of whether it’s appropriate to feature a photo uploaded by a sockpuppet. Wolverine XI had the opportunity to speak up as to the photo’s quality when it was initially nominated, and he didn’t. If we start re-evaluating the quality of images only a month after they were passed, I fear that the FP galleries would forever be in flux. Anyway, I think I’ll leave it here as I don’t feel inclined to defend Livio’s photos any longer. Cmao20 (talk) 04:15, 18 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Perhaps "not on par" has no relation with "quality"? "Not on par with the rest of the FPs" possibly means that the rest of the FPs were uploaded by authorized users? Or because the rest of the FPs will be fair POTY candidates, legitimate POTD, etc.?
  •  Delist per nom.--Peulle (talk) 08:08, 18 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Neutral Now this is a real dilemma. One the one hand I fully agree with Radomianin, Basile, et all. that we should not promote any further photos by Livioandronico2013/Paris Orlando/Σπάρτακος/Architas/Commonists/NikonZ7II/Merulana/PaestumPaestum/etc. etc. etc., according to the results of the discussion after the Commonists unmasking in 2021. On the other hand Cmao20 is absolutely right that this photo is kind of a special case, as it was neither nominated by Livio themselves nor did Livio even vote on it. IMHO we should not delist the image for quality/aesthetical reasons because these aspects have been fairly discussed in the original nomination just a month ago. Anybody can always open a regular ‘delist’ nomination, but normally this should be done only (a) for procedural/rule-related reasons – like here –, (b) when one discovers major flaws in a FP which were not mentioned in the original nomination discussion, or (c) after a fairly long period when our technical requirements have changed significantly. Delisting recently promoted FPs ‘on the fly’ would open a can of worms with arbitray ‘But I did not like that FP’ discussions and block FPC. But of course I am fine with a procedural demoting if the majority resolves to do so. In any case many thanks to A.Savin, Basile, Cmao20, Radomianin and all other participants for their commitment to settle this unpleasant affair! – Aristeas (talk) 10:19, 18 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Comment I am sorry to have caused such an intense discussion with this nomination. Perhaps I should have waited a little longer until there were other suggestions on the FPC discussion page. I am also sorry that a recently successfully promoted photo is now the reason for a delisting. The Livioandronico2013 scandal happened long before I was active on Commons, but I noticed the Commonists affair and took the opportunity to read through all the discussion pages about how Livioandronico2013 got banned. Until then, I didn't even know what a sock puppet was. Since we all work in this forum with good and faithful intentions, I personally think it is very important not to give room to proven or obvious frauds. This affects not only the relationships between contributors, but also the policies of the Wikimedia Foundation. While such removals are unpleasant for everyone involved, they must be done. I would also like to echo Cmao20's and Aristeas' thoughts that the reason for this delisting nomination is entirely due to sockpuppet abuse. It has nothing to do with technical, compositional, or any other aspect of the photo in question. Best regards, -- Radomianin (talk) 14:34, 18 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Delist Sockpuppet saga aside, this is not even a QI to me. --SHB2000 (talk) 07:26, 20 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Why? I am happy to see this picture be delisted but I’m genuinely surprised how much criticism of the technical aspects has taken place. Surely the bar for QI is sharp, well composed, and illustrates the subject clearly, I don’t see how it can fall short. As I say, fully happy to see it go, but it just surprises me how many people seem to think that nominating this in the first place was some egregious misstep on my part.

  • I won’t quibble with the rest, as although the composition is very satisfying to me this is definitely a fair critique, but I can’t personally see any issues with sharpness. The image seems very sharp to me. Cmao20 (talk) 02:49, 17 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • @Cmao20: Interestingly, I just viewed the photo on my phone rather than my laptop and it looks like a completely different image; sharper lines, more saturated colours in the sky and warmer tones on the sand/rocks (maybe something up with the colour space?). Anyway, happy to strike out the comment about sharpness. BigDom (talk) 14:44, 17 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Giles Laurent: You have cleaned up the technical denoising issue and it is now a quality image. I would certainly be happy if it were mine. However, IMHO, it still doesn't have the wow of others in the FP gallery. Now that you are intrigued by the aurora borealis, this might prompt travel back to Iceland's Ring Road, Northern Canada or Norway to look for more. The aurora appears like mysterious magic across the sky. --GRDN711 (talk) 01:38, 19 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Taking a picture of the aurora is not something that you do by simply going to a place and taking a picture. You need the right conditions which you have no power at. The aurora don't happen constantly and you need one to be happening. You also need good weather, which is something extremely rare in Iceland. I spent 2 weeks in the winter period there and there was 100% cloud coverage 98% of the time. And with clouds in front of it, there's nothing to be seen. That night was the only night that I got to see an aurora. I also know a few people that went in search of auroras in other countries like Canada or Norway and that ended up seeing nothing. -- Giles Laurent (talk) 08:18, 19 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • You may consider it's important for you to enjoy your own pictures (and so much the better!), but it's not important for the collective evaluation. The goal is not to award the FP label to all photographers who like so much their own photos, otherwise we would promote the worst works that have exceptional sentimental value. The goal is to promote the photos that consensually satisfy a majority -- Basile Morin (talk) 01:41, 18 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Understandable - not all photos have to get FP. Honestly, nothing will happen to me in life if the picture doesn't get FP :)
I've been following this thing here for a while now and sometimes I don't understand what these assessments are based on. Emotion?
In the case of a microscope photo, I still recommend looking for reference material to understand what level these photos are in the world. It's a very complex genre and some photos that seem bad to the viewer can turn out to be quite good if you compare the tests with similar photos :D Janeklass (talk) 03:22, 18 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • +1 Great panning effect, but the tilt gives the impression the car is going up a hill. I will support this nomination if it is fixed. As the camera sensor is capable of more pixels, I assume the picture was cropped on both sizes? -- Basile Morin (talk) 01:18, 19 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • I genuinely don't know how accurate the tilt is, Donington park is reasonably hilly there but I think it's probably at least exaggerated. I personally like it to make it feel dynamic, but it might not be preferable for encyclopedic purposes. Because, as you say, I have plenty of space to straighten it in the crop, so I will add a straight version as an alternative. — Julian H.✈ 07:45, 19 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Comment I am sorry to have caused such an intense discussion with this nomination. Perhaps I should have waited a little longer until there were other suggestions on the FPC discussion page. I am also sorry that a recently successfully promoted photo is now the reason for a delisting. The Livioandronico2013 scandal happened long before I was active on Commons, but I noticed the Commonists affair and took the opportunity to read through all the discussion pages about how Livioandronico2013 got banned. Until then, I didn't even know what a sock puppet was. Since we all work in this forum with good and faithful intentions, I personally think it is very important not to give room to proven or obvious frauds. This affects not only the relationships between contributors, but also the policies of the Wikimedia Foundation. While such removals are unpleasant for everyone involved, they must be done. I would also like to echo Cmao20's and Aristeas' thoughts that the reason for this delisting nomination is entirely due to sockpuppet abuse. It has nothing to do with technical, compositional, or any other aspect of the photo in question. Best regards, -- Radomianin (talk) 14:34, 18 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Delist Sockpuppet saga aside, this is not even a QI to me. --SHB2000 (talk) 07:26, 20 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Why? I am happy to see this picture be delisted but I’m genuinely surprised how much criticism of the technical aspects has taken place. Surely the bar for QI is sharp, well composed, and illustrates the subject clearly, I don’t see how it can fall short. As I say, fully happy to see it go, but it just surprises me how many people seem to think that nominating this in the first place was some egregious misstep on my part.

SHORT DESCRIPTION
  • I won’t quibble with the rest, as although the composition is very satisfying to me this is definitely a fair critique, but I can’t personally see any issues with sharpness. The image seems very sharp to me. Cmao20 (talk) 02:49, 17 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • @Cmao20: Interestingly, I just viewed the photo on my phone rather than my laptop and it looks like a completely different image; sharper lines, more saturated colours in the sky and warmer tones on the sand/rocks (maybe something up with the colour space?). Anyway, happy to strike out the comment about sharpness. BigDom (talk) 14:44, 17 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

* Comment Wcamp9, redirecting the file link to the uncropped version seems to have broken the nomination. I believe the right way to do this is to offer the uncropped version as an Alternative. --Julesvernex2 (talk) 18:37, 15 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Link is restored. The uncropped version can still be added to this nomination as an Alternative. I've taken the liberty to do so since Wcamp9 is new to FPC and doesn't know how the nom system works (you can't go about changing the code in the nom, unless you know exactly what you're doing). Please revert if you don't like it. --Cart (talk) 19:32, 15 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Northern lights over Mývatn (Iceland)
@Giles Laurent: You have cleaned up the technical denoising issue and it is now a quality image. I would certainly be happy if it were mine. However, IMHO, it still doesn't have the wow of others in the FP gallery. Now that you are intrigued by the aurora borealis, this might prompt travel back to Iceland's Ring Road, Northern Canada or Norway to look for more. The aurora appears like mysterious magic across the sky. --GRDN711 (talk) 01:38, 19 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Taking a picture of the aurora is not something that you do by simply going to a place and taking a picture. You need the right conditions which you have no power at. The aurora don't happen constantly and you need one to be happening. You also need good weather, which is something extremely rare in Iceland. I spent 2 weeks in the winter period there and there was 100% cloud coverage 98% of the time. And with clouds in front of it, there's nothing to be seen. That night was the only night that I got to see an aurora. I also know a few people that went in search of auroras in other countries like Canada or Norway and that ended up seeing nothing. -- Giles Laurent (talk) 08:18, 19 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

SHORT DESCRIPTION
  • You may consider it's important for you to enjoy your own pictures (and so much the better!), but it's not important for the collective evaluation. The goal is not to award the FP label to all photographers who like so much their own photos, otherwise we would promote the worst works that have exceptional sentimental value. The goal is to promote the photos that consensually satisfy a majority -- Basile Morin (talk) 01:41, 18 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Understandable - not all photos have to get FP. Honestly, nothing will happen to me in life if the picture doesn't get FP :)
I've been following this thing here for a while now and sometimes I don't understand what these assessments are based on. Emotion?
In the case of a microscope photo, I still recommend looking for reference material to understand what level these photos are in the world. It's a very complex genre and some photos that seem bad to the viewer can turn out to be quite good if you compare the tests with similar photos :D Janeklass (talk) 03:22, 18 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
