Hi Cornellier! My cousin in New Brunswick just wrote and sent details on the church photo you wrote to me about, so I have been able to add the name and location of the church on the photo's main page. You can read all about it at: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Church_near_Sackville.JPG#.7B.7Bint:filedesc.7D.7D I hope you find it of interest. Thanks for bringing to my attention that the photo really needed more information with it - I think it is much better now. Best wishes, and cheers, John E.

A file that you have uploaded to Wikimedia Commons, File:Twiglets.jpg, is missing information about where it comes from or who created it, which is needed to verify its copyright status. Please edit the file description and add the missing information, or the file may be deleted.

If you created the content yourself, enter {{Own}} as the source. If you did not add a licensing template, you must add one. You may use, for example, {{self|GFDL|cc-by-sa-all}} or {{Cc-zero}} to release certain rights to your work.

If someone else created the content, or if it is based on someone else's work, the source should be the address to the web page where you found it, the name and ISBN of the book you scanned it from, or similar. You should also name the author, provide verifiable information to show that the content is in the public domain or has been published under a free license by its author, and add an appropriate template identifying the public domain or licensing status, if you have not already done so.

For the record, the media was my own work. I didn't fill in the copyright info correctly in time. Too bad. --Cornellier (talk) 01:17, 4 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

File:Countries driving on the left or right 1900.svg

Hello.

Can you make these corrections in File:Countries driving on the left or right 1900.svg?

In 1900, these places drove on the left and thus need to be colored in blue:

Sweden
Finland
Austro-Hungarian Empire
Bosnia
Portuguese Timor (East Timor)
South Sudan (then part of Anglo-Egyptian Sudan)
Aden Colony (South Yemen)

In 1900, these places drove on the right and thus need to be colored in red:

Brazil
Paraguay
South Korea (then part of a unified Korea)

Please see the articles en:Left- and right-hand traffic and en:List of countries with left-hand traffic and the sources.

Thank you.

I'm not sure the changes you are proposing are correct. E.g. Sweden is already blue. Finland was RHT in 1900. Austro-Hungarian empire is already blue in the map, --Cornellier (talk) 01:17, 4 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for pointing out my mistakes about Sweden and Finland, but Austria, Slovenia, Croatia, southern Poland and Bosnia are themselves colored in red, when they need to be colored in blue. British Columbia is shown too large, because it incorrectly covers Alberta. Can you correct them and the other aforementioned countries? 31.200.11.49 06:30, 4 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

And thank you for helping to improve this map! So I need to do the following:

change from red to blue Austria, Slovenia, Croatia, southern Poland, Bosnia, Portuguese Timor (East Timor), South Sudan and Aden Colony (South Yemen).
separate Alberta from British Columbia (actually I don't think Alberta existed in 1900)
change from red to blue Korea
NOT DO: Brazil and Paraguay were LHT back then, according to the article. --Cornellier (talk) 14:18, 4 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Your map is a good and educational map. Thank you for pointing out Brazil and Paraguay, which I overlooked. But the others listed indeed need to be corrected. I have also checked them to be sure. 31.200.11.49 16:19, 4 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
