How we will see unregistered users
Hi!
You get this message because you are an admin on a Wikimedia wiki.
When someone edits a Wikimedia wiki without being logged in today, we show their IP address. As you may already know, we will not be able to do this in the future. This is a decision by the Wikimedia Foundation Legal department, because norms and regulations for privacy online have changed.
Instead of the IP we will show a masked identity. You as an admin will still be able to access the IP. There will also be a new user right for those who need to see the full IPs of unregistered users to fight vandalism, harassment and spam without being admins. Patrollers will also see part of the IP even without this user right. We are also working on better tools to help.
If you have not seen it before, you can read more on Meta. If you want to make sure you don’t miss technical changes on the Wikimedia wikis, you can subscribe to the weekly technical newsletter.
We have two suggested ways this identity could work. We would appreciate your feedback on which way you think would work best for you and your wiki, now and in the future. You can let us know on the talk page. You can write in your language. The suggestions were posted in October and we will decide after 17 January.
Thank you. /Johan (WMF)

ar translation
Hi, would you mind to give a look at BMI grid ar.svg ?
There is a comparison with the multilingual BMI grid.svg that I made; I am not sure whether the text is correct.
And may be another font shows the ar-text better? The numbers are fine, or should ٠ ١ ٢ ٣ ٤ be used ?
Do you think that a farsi translation is necessary? I want to make it good but do not have the knowledge -- sarang♥사랑 12:41, 18 January 2022 (UTC)
- الطول (سم] is sure incorrect -- sarang♥사랑 12:53, 18 January 2022 (UTC)
Hello @Sarang: Please, can you update it after my last edit; as I fixed few issues that already exist in BMI grid ar.svg? About the font, maybe you can use Calibri or Noto Naskh Arabic or Arial? The numbers are fine. And sorry, I don't have knowledge about "farsi"! Best --Alaa :)..! 17:08, 18 January 2022 (UTC)
Clear copyright violation
Hi Alaa, this file has been uploaded and according to the investigation, the file isn't own work. could you delete it? Karim185.3 (talk) 00:00, 16 March 2022 (UTC)
أهلًا @Karim185.3: ، شكرًا لانتباهك. حُذف الملف وملفاتٍ أُخرى من رفع نفس المستخدم. لدي ملاحظتين:
- فيما يخص هذا الملف (من رفعك)، فهو مُخالف لحقوق النشر أيضًا، فالفكرة ليست في ذكر المصدر، بل أن تكون الصُورة حُرة، وفيما يخص فيديوهات اليوتيوب يجب أن تكون رخصة الفيديو (ترخيص Creative Commons Attribution)؛ طالع مثلًا رخصة هذا الفيديو، وفي حالة هذه الصورة فإنَّ الفيديو على اليوتيوب لم يُوضح أي رخصة، بالتالي الصورة غير مُرخصة بشكلٍ حر ويجب حذفها. للمزيد طالع Commons:YouTube files.
- حول ترشيح الصور أو الملفات عبر ويكيميديا كومنز للحذف، أُفضل أن تُرشح الصور مباشرةً للحذف إذا كانت مُخالفة، بحيث يمكن لأحد الزملاء الإداريين هُنا التعامل معها في أسرع وقت، حيث أنَّ وجودي مُتقطع وقد أتأخر بالرد أو التجاوب مع الطلبات. لذلك، يمكنك التوجه إلى الإضافات وتفعيل إضافة (AjaxQuickDelete)، والتي تُظهر لك عبارة (Nominate for deletion) ضمن شريط الأدوات الجانبي، وأيضًا (Report copyright violation).
تحياتي وبالتوفيق --Alaa :)..! 09:39, 16 March 2022 (UTC)
User:علاء فهمتُ يجب أن يكون الفيديو مرخصًا (ترخيص Creative Commons Attribution) إذًا احذفه، وآسف على رفعه- Karim185.3 (talk) 09:48, 16 March 2022 (UTC)

Hi Alaa, could you delete this file because it seems that it is not "own work" according to this. Regards Karim185.3 (talk) 21:12, 31 March 2022 (UTC)
What about this file? The source says, "جميع الحقوق محفوظة للشركة السعودية للأبحاث والنشر وتخضع لشروط وإتفاق الإستخدام © 2022". Is that means it is under commons creative license 3? Regards. Karim185.3 (talk) 00:46, 1 April 2022 (UTC)

Hi, the file File:Shireen Abu Aqleh.png was a screengrab from this Youtube video uploaded by the official Channel 1 Egypt Youtube, and if you look in the video description it gives a license of "Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed)", which if I understand the Youtube licensing page is the CC-BY license and per Commons:Licensing#Acceptable_licenses that is an acceptable license.

Sound Logo
Hello,
I am messaging you because a contest for a sound logo for Wikimedia is being developed and your opinion as a Wikimedia Commons admin is appreciated. My team would like to know if it is possible for the top finalist sound logos in the contest to have attribution temporarily hidden from public view until all the votes are final? The idea is to let the public judge the sound logo contestants based on the merit of the logo, not the person or people who made it. Again, any feedback is appreciated.
Thank you,

This Sunday!
Hi, this is just a quick reminder: the next virtual meeting of our user group is scheduled for Sunday, June 19, 16:00 UTC. Topics are: “Photography in Nigeria”, “Photographing Vehicles”, “Wildlife photography and citizen science”, and “I started printing my images – here’s what I've learned so far…”. I'm thrilled about this great agenda and I'm looking forward to connecting with you again. Stay safe and all the best, --Frank Schulenburg (talk) 03:08, 18 June 2022 (UTC)
Quick update on behalf of the Commons Photographers User Group
Dear member of the Commons Photographers User Group,
I hope you're well and enjoy taking photos for Wikimedia Commons. Here are a couple of quick updates on behalf of our group:
- Our next virtual meeting will take place on Saturday, August 27. At this point we have two presentations lined up:
- Suitable! Unsuitable! How to choose photos for a Wikipedia for children, “Klexikon” (Ziko)
- The aperture and its (less known) effects (XRay)
- You can sign up for the event on this page: Virtual Meeting on August 27, 2022. – Given that we can accommodate more speakers, I'll invite you to get in touch with me in case you'd like to present on the 27th. You can reach me any time on my talk page or by sending a quick email.
- Also, we now have a page for local events organized by members of our user group: Local events 2022. Please check it out and consider organizing an event yourself!
- And finally, we're planning on offering a Post-processing Workshop on October 8. Please save the date; an events page with more information will go up later.
Thanks for being a member of our group and for sharing your works under a free license. Have fun taking pictures!
All the best, --Frank Schulenburg (talk) 15:23, 18 August 2022 (UTC)
Commons:Deletion requests/File:Matt Thibeau Helps Ottawa Businesses Make Sales.jpg
I notice that you closed the dicussion Commons:Deletion requests/File:Matt Thibeau Helps Ottawa Businesses Make Sales.jpg as "Deleted", and then deleted all but one file. Since there wasn't any distinction made in the discussion between any of the nominated files, I assume that missing the deletion of one file was just a simple mistake. Can you please have a second look? Thank you. Marbletan (talk) 18:00, 5 September 2022 (UTC)

You're invited to provide input…
Dear fellow member of the Commons Photographers User Group,
At our last meeting end of August, we talked about getting in touch with the Wikimedia Foundation and offering our help for improving Wikimedia Commons. Today, I invite you to provide your input on a draft open letter to the Foundation. Over the course of the next ten days, we'll further improve the text together, before inviting people to sign it. If you're interested in providing input, please engage in the discussion on the talk page of the draft.
In the meanwhile, I hope you're well and have a great time taking photos! All the best, --Frank Schulenburg (talk) 08:42, 20 September 2022 (UTC)

Question from the CPUG Board
Dear user group member,
I'm writing you to today on behalf of the board of the Commons Photographers User Group. The past year has been a busy one for us. In 2022, we've had more activities than ever before in the history of our group and you'll find an overview on our group's page.
With that being said, 2022 was also a year of learning for the current board members. Most of us hadn't been involved in running the Photographers User Group and we spent quite some time on getting used to our new roles. We all feel it was a steep learning curve.
That's why, at our last board meeting, we decided to ask our members whether they'd be ok with us serving for another year. Extending our board duties to the end of 2023 would allow us to continue the work we've started this year, and to benefit from the knowledge we've built over the past twelve months.
However, in the end, it's up to you and the other members of our group to decide whether such an extension of our board term should be granted. I invite you to voice your opinion on this page:
Commons:Commons Photographers User Group/Board Elections 2022
We'll gather feedback until December 27, and we'll keep you in the loop about the outcomes of this process.
Thanks so much for your ongoing support of our group. I wish you, your family, and your friends all the best.

Most memorable shot 2022 / Wikimania 2023
Dear member of the Commons Photographers User Group,
I wish you a Happy New Year! As it has been our tradition at the beginning of the new year for a while, we're sharing our most memorable shots of the past year with each other. I invite you to share a picture that is particular meaningful to you and to describe why that's the case. Also, as Wikimania 2023 will be here before we know it (August 16 to 19), please consider adding your thoughts on our planning page, where we gather ideas for how we can make Commons photography more visible than in the years before.
All the best to you, your family, and friends! --Frank Schulenburg (talk) 21:01, 2 January 2023 (UTC)

Round 1 of Picture of the Year 2022 voting is open!
Read this message in your language
Dear Wikimedian,
Wikimedia Commons is happy to announce that the 2022 Picture of the Year competition is now open. This year will be the seventeenth 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 (2022) 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 are all 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.
For your convenience, we have sorted the images into topical categories. Two rounds of voting will be held: In the first round, you may vote for as many images as you like. The top 30 overall and the two most popular images in each category will continue to the final. In the final round, you may vote for just three images to become the Picture of the Year.
Round 1 will end on UTC.
Thanks,
the Wikimedia Commons Picture of the Year committee
You are receiving this message because you voted in the 2021 Picture of the Year contest.

Question regarding close
Hi!
I'm looking at this deletion, and I don't quite understand the rationale for deletion. I created the DR to contest the F10 by saying that it was plausibly in-scope, and nobody seems to have argued that it was out-of-scope. The deletion was closed per nomination, but that doesn't seem like a reason to delete the file.
At your convenience, would you please undelete the file or expand on the rationale you've provided?

- Hello Red-tailed hawk, Thanks for bringing this unintentional mistake to my attention; I read it "out-COM:SCOPE" instead of "in-COM:SCOPE"! And after reviewing the file, I found that it was a personal photo, out of scope with no educational value. So, I made this deletion.
- Undeleted the file and re-opened the deletion request for a broader discussion. Thanks again --Alaa :)..! 14:50, 3 June 2023 (UTC)

Flickypedia soft launch and a huge thank you
Dear fellow Commons photographer,
I hope this message finds you well. As you might already know, the Flickr Foundation has been busy creating a new Flickr-to-Commons bridge (“Flickypedia”) this year. After a successful demo at the GLAM Wiki Conference in Montevideo, the Flickr Foundation team is now inviting all members of the Commons Photographers User Group to be the first to review their alpha, reporting any technical issues or other feedback via the Flickypedia project talk page.
At the same time, this message is an opportunity for me to thank you for your trust and support over the past couple of years. Since 2017, we've grown into being one of the largest user groups in the Wikimedia universe. I've tremendously enjoyed interacting with all of our members when it came to joint photowalks at Wikimanias, virtual Zoom meetings where we covered a wide variety of photography topics, as well as our annual “Most memorable shot of the year”, among many other events. As I'm not running for an official position in our current board election, this will be my last message on behalf of the user group to you. Thanks for all the happy moments we shared together over the years! I hope you'll continue creating free images for the millions of people we serve through Wikipedia and Commons.
All the best, --Frank Schulenburg (talk) 19:36, 9 December 2023 (UTC)
