Pronunciation of Bettino Ricasoli

[edit]

Hi Gerard, you made a small mistake in the pronunciation of Bettino Ricasoli's surname, it should be stressed on the A, not the O.

Commons:Pronunciation files requests

Hi. Can you add your recordings to Dutch instead of Category:Dutch? thanks -- Chris 73 10:12, 3 Nov 2004 (UTC)

Why? Categories are more convenient. GerardM 11:47, 3 Nov 2004 (UTC)

Hi. You're fast :-) But sth's wrong, I cannot listen to the "chemical" words you've uploaded (eg. Media:Nl-atoomnummer.ogg), while I can listen to the "language" files (eg. Media:Nl-Sami.ogg). Even the links look different. Is it just my problem (cache perhaps)?
--tsca 12:04, 3 Nov 2004 (UTC)

Hi. Could you add copyright tags to the images you uploaded? For now I have tagged your image as "Unknown". If there are no tags, the image may have to be deleted. The image in question is Image:Edward Elgar.jpg. Thanks -- Chris 73 03:20, 12 Nov 2004 (UTC)

Note: You missed the copyright tag for Image:Nl-moeder.ogg. -- Chris 73 04:10, 8 Dec 2004 (UTC)

ogg sound recordings for Mac

[edit]

Hi Gerard, Bdka told me you are the local specialist for ogg files ;-) I work with Macintosh OS X and would like to record some spoken sound via the internal microphone. Could you recommend a software for doing that and saving/exporting it as ogg? I'm not very Sound-savvy... Thx for any help --Elya 23:25, 13 Dec 2004 (UTC)

Hoi, I use "Audacity" I know it also runs on the Macintosh as Jimbo Wales has it also installed on his portable Mac. It is easy to use. Recommended. GerardM 07:12, 14 Dec 2004 (UTC)
Thank you! I'll try that. --Elya 07:42, 14 Dec 2004 (UTC)
I tried it, it's super! Quite easy to use, I produced media:juschtschenko.ogg, and hope it is not too bad ;-) thanks again. --Elya 23:00, 14 Dec 2004 (UTC)
There is a naming standard for pronunciations; xx-word.ogg where xx is the ISO-639 code for a language. What language do you speak natively ?? GerardM 16:05, 27 Dec 2004 (UTC)
Oups. Quite a long time to answer this question ;-) Natively, you know it in the meantime, in Ukrainian, I'm just an „amateur“... Best wishes, --elya@22C3 --81.163.155.226 15:24, 29 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

Hi. Why did you list this for deletion, and could you use the {{delete}} tag instead？ -- Chris 73 13:40, 27 Dec 2004 (UTC)</nowiki>

The name has an error in there it should be "aardoppervlak", it was a typo. The way I cam to tag it to be deleted has everything to do with the difficulty in finding how to mark something as to be deleted. I went through the Community portal to find this. GerardM 16:05, 27 Dec 2004 (UTC)

SOA pictures

[edit]

Heya there, nice (actually not so nice ;) ) pictures you upload there. Could you specify a license tag for these pictures and add them to pictures you uploaded? It's not clear on which license they are at the moment. Thanks. --Conti|✉ 00:04, 21 Jan 2005 (UTC)

further information on deletion requests

[edit]

Hello Gerard, could you please always give a reason when you use {{delete}}? E.g. what is wrong here? Thanx a lot --:Bdk: 22:47, 9 Feb 2005 (UTC)

I am involved in uploading loads of pronounciations. The naming has to be to a certain standard and, it has to be letterperfect to the word that is being used. Sometimes we make errors and then we use delete to ask them to be deleted. They will never be used as a properly spelled version has been uploaded as well. GerardM 09:28, 13 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Dutch Cardinals

[edit]

We've had a request from a Norwegian television station to have the names of Cardinals in pronunciation files. I imagine this would be useful for many small radio and television stations over the next few weeks and should show Wikipedia as an invaluable source. As such, I am trying to find native speakers of the primary languages of the countries from which the Cardinals come to record the correct pronunciation of their names. There are two Dutch cardinals: "Johannes Gerardus Maria Kardinaal Willebrands" and "Adrianus Johannes Kardinaal Simonis". It would be a great help if you could record these two for us. Further, if you can find any other significant historical Dutch Cardinals at http://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kardinaal there would be no harm in recording those names, or indeed the names of Dutch Archbishops, etc. Most importantly are the two current cardinals I have stated. Thanks. --Oldak Quill 14:07, 4 Apr 2005 (UTC)

I have recorded four soundfiles: the names as listed and the names without the first names, GerardM 14:14, 4 Apr 2005 (UTC)

license of your ogg files

[edit]

Hi - thanks for all the sound files. Sadly, a great many of them are missing copyright info and/or categorization. Please have a look at Commons:Untagged_images#G, many of your uploads are listed there. Please add appropriate licens info, files without such info will have to be deleted. Thank you. -- Duesentrieb 12:29, 9 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Oh - if all those files where created by you, and they are all under the same license, you can ask User:Andre Engels to tag them using his bot. -- Duesentrieb 13:00, 10 Apr 2005 (UTC)

I have already tagged them with the complete information (including categories) :) GerardM 05:47, 11 Apr 2005 (UTC)

nl-nl?

[edit]

Gerard, wat denk van het gebruiken van de vermelding "nl-nl" en "nl-be", zoals veel software gebruikt om een verschil te maken tussen Nederlands van Nederland en Nederlands van België (Vlaanderen)? --Walter 11:31, 12 Apr 2005 (UTC)

PS: ik heb de pagina List of the different audio-templates for the Wikipedias aangemaakt. is nog werk aan maar dit mijkt mij zeer handig om de audio-bestanden effectief in de diverse wikipedia's te kunnen plaatsen --Walter 11:33, 12 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Dat is alleen zinnig als er een echt onderscheid is. Ik gebruik nl omdat het een standaard Nederlandstalige uitspraak is. Bij speciale woorden waar er een wezenlijk verschil is in de uitspraak zou ik het anders doen. GerardM 11:35, 12 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Why so many files ?

[edit]

I don't understand clearly the utility of all your files... That's just than I want know why wikicommons need all this, what is all this, and who will use all this in add of yourself. Yug talk 12:36, 16 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

These files are for use in the Wiktionary project. They are soundfiles that help people pronounce words. GerardM 15:00, 16 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Image:ERD.jpg

[edit]

Hi - thanks for your great work on the commons. Please note that you can not license program screenshots as your own work - they are reproductions of the user interface created by the programmers, so they have rights to it too, in many cases. For this reason, only screenshots of free software are allowed on the commons - please see Commons:Licensing#Screenshots. Pictures of MS programs are especially probelmatic. It would be excelent if you could draw the ERD with a graphics program, or with a free modelling software. Thanks! -- Duesentrieb 12:22, 19 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Please do your homework again. I checked Microsoft's website and it is completely legal to publish a screenshot from a Access ERD. This is also an instance where Commons has a function to decimate content that is important to many projects; the ERD is relevant as documentation of a programming effort by the WMF. It should not be changed by anyone for whatever reason.
Asking me to draw this in another tool is unrealistic. Here Commons is used as a vehicle to make information available that is required for programming. Do also note that it is not published as GFDL but as GPL. GerardM 15:00, 19 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]
You are right that it is legal to publish it, but it's a violation of the current commons policy, as stated in Commons:Licensing. You are basically claiming fair use, which is not applicable here - the commons is a media database, the pictures are primary content. Also, Microsoft explicitely sais in the EULA that you are not allowed to publish modified versions of the image - which, again, is a violation of the policy (source of that info, german). I'm aware that the policy is not perfect, and that (c)-laws can be a real PITA. If you want to discuss this, please do so on the vialage pump or start a vote.
Anyway, it is also not leagal to put the image under the a license of your choice (GPL or otherwise), because you don't have any rights to it, or at least are not the only one that has rights - you would have to ask MS first. All you could do is publishe it under the terms defined by MS, which are not compatible with the commons policy. You can put the database design onder the GPL, and represent it as SQL code, or draw a UML or ER diagram with a tool that allows you to export graphics that can be published freely.
As for the technical part - sure, the ERD is an important tool for DB design - but the commons is simply the wrong place to put such information. Maybe such images are acceptable on meta or the dev wiki, or it may be a good idea to start a separate wiki for that. It would also IMHO be better to use UML for modelling the entity relations, since you will have to migrate the design to another DBMS anyway.
Sorry to be picky, but we have had a lot of trouble with screenshots in the past, and, as you know, licensing is very important to keep the project going. Regards -- Duesentrieb 20:34, 19 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]
There is one thing you forget. Commons has a utility; it is the only place from where you can share data to all projects. As Ultimate Wiktionary has an impact on many projects it is vitaly important that the latest and greatest version of the ERD is available. It is highly unlikely that it will be used in ordinary content. It is also extremely stupid to make changes to this particular screenshot.
Your argument is flawed as Commons is the only place that has the necessary utility. To say that the tool that I use is wrong is also a bit odd. This is the tool that I know well and use effectively. Licensing is important but it is not the only consideration. GerardM 05:33, 20 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Wikimedia Commons e-mail

[edit]

Hoi,

You as an administrator are involved in en edit war on Image:Dumper Truck.JPG

I have been asked to intervene and I did protect the article. By changing the picture you do something that is in my opinion not something that you have the right to do. By removing the picture and changing it, you are not able to attribute this picture. The picture is not yours; it is by Noorse.

The reason why many on the Dutch wikipedia use a marker is because of a fight with a wikipedia clone. The point is, the article was protected and it was not for you to upload without consultation.

Thanks, User:GerardM

Hi Gerard. I hope you don't mind I copied your email here. I prefer talk pages.
First, let me say I didn't notice that Dumper_Truck.JPG was protected when I uploaded the cropped version. As you might be aware, MediaWiki doesn't warn about that. I'm sorry; if I had noticed that you protected it, I wouldn't have uploaded a new version.
As far as "not something that you have the right to do": well, cc-by allows modifications. I do indeed have the right to modify the picture, including removing the watermark. I'm pretty sure that isn't vandalism. And as long as Noorse is attributed somehow (for example, in the image description page), it isn't a copyright violation either.
Finally, I'm surprised you deleted the image. The only effect of that action is that now you are listed as the original uploader in the image history, instead of Noorse. dbenbenn | talk 15:55, 31 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]
By the way, I've uploaded the cropped version as Image:Dumper Truck, cropped.JPG. I suggest that Image:Dumper Truck.JPG should be unprotected. I won't be editing that page either way, but the protection stops Noorse from editing it. dbenbenn | talk 16:06, 31 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Uploading to a new name is your "right". Creating modifications is not the same as modifying the original. It is simply not the same. As to Noorse, she is happy that it is like it is. GerardM 18:23, 31 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Gerard, I'd like to thank you for trying to help here, but as the people here do not seem to understand english, would you please change the license from {cc-by-2.0} to {cc-by-nd-2.0} for me? This change is due to the behaviour I've encountered here at Commons. Otherwise I expect that the same edit-war will erupt again with {redundant} being moved hence and forth. I'm not interested in contributing to a project where participants behave like this. Noorse 19:03, 31 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]
P.S. If appropriate I'd also like the image that user:dbenbenn mauled to be marked with the same license.

Image:ERD.jpg

[edit]

I think this is a screenshot of non-free Microsoft software. Please read Commons:Licensing and think of a solution how to present the results, without a screenshot. --Paddy 11:06, 22 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I cropped the image now so that you can not see the stuff of the programm. I also think a *.png would be better than a jpg version. Can you not print the image to a *.prn (and convert to *.png) or produce *.gif output directly without printing the srceen? --Paddy 20:56, 22 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Het spijt mij...

[edit]

Ik was net even terug, ik dacht de licenties aan te passen. Alleen om te vinden dat ene Paddy het op zich had genomen ze zonder mijn weten te reverten. Gerard, dit is voor mij de druppel. Ik heb net de licenties teruggezet op nd en berichten achtergelaten bij paddy (ja, ik werd nogal kwaad om zijn eigenmachtige actie) en duesentrieb. Het liefst zie ik ze gisteren verwijderd van Commons. Het is jammer, maar aan een zo'n anarchie als hier wens ik niet deel te nemen. Sterker nog, als het mij gevraagd wordt ga ik mijn uiterst best om het anderen uit hun hoofd te praten om afbeeldingen te uploaden hier, en indirect dus ook op nl. omdat je daar de risico loop dat ze overgeheveld worden hierheen.
Als ze hier een beetje normaal had kunnen doen, en met je communiceren voordat ze hun gang gingen is de kans groot dat ik heel anders had gereageerd. Echter, zoals het hier is? I'd rather not get caught dead here... Overigens jammer van het gebeuren tussen jou en w op nl:. Ik hoop dat je af en toe langskom ongeacht :) - en succes met je wiktionary ;)

Hi Gerard, today I found your great dutch pronounciation sound files on commons.

Hoi Gerard, ik heb onlangs de hoofdpagina in het Nedersaksisch geschreven, maar iemand kreeg het idee dat de hoofdpagina in het Platduits is geschreven. (iemand die Platduits spreekt kan dit waarschijnlijk niet zo goed lezen en is dus misleidend) Het is overigens bedoelt voor een toekomstige Wikipedia die hopelijk binnenkort gecreëerd wordt.

problems with nl.wikipedia community and SVG images

[edit]

Hi Gerard, I notice you are an admin and you speak Dutch. I was wondering if you can maybe help out here. It seems like there are a lot of problems lately between nl.wikipedia and PNG flags and coat-of-arms being updated to SVG (see Commons:Village_pump#problem for the latest). We need some help so that nl.wikipedia people are happy with what we're doing, understand what we're doing and why we're doing it. At the moment it is very heated with talk of boycotting the Commons etc. I think we desparately need to improve our reputation with nl.wikipedia so I am hoping you can look into this issue and help keep it calm any way you can. Thanks, pfctdayelise (translate?) 23:45, 19 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The problem is that it is absolutely not clear WHY it is done what is done but even more the way it was done was not open for consideration when it proved problematic. This has been discussed in the past with the admins involved and this resulted in rather heated discussions where arguments were used like "it is allowed according to the rules of the GFDL" and "go away". And also "we have voted on this in Commons so this is the way we are doing it".
I have tried to mediate in the past and this was not really apreciated. Now the pidgeons come home to roost. It is indeed a sad moment. But when you want to improve the adoption of Commons, you have to enter an open discussion. GerardM 21:58, 20 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

OGG file problems

Hi Gerard

Below is a list of ogg files ou uploaded, that have net been recognized as being vorbis encoded. I tried to look for the reason, a found another strange thing: the files are not there at all!. Please wait a bit before re-uploading, I will try to get someone to investigate this... it appears that some files have actually vanished from the server - or they where never stored, because something went wrong during upload - I don't know yet.

Commons-l subscription

[edit]

Hello GerardM,

as per Commons talk:Administrators, I am asking all admins to subscribe to commons-l, a mailing list for Wikimedia Commons policy and project discussion. Since many admins are only on Commons infrequently, this is a good way to alert people about important happenings. The mailing list is nominally multilingual, but predominantly English.

If you are already subscribed to commons-l, I apologize for bothering you, and you are free to ignore this message. If you don't want to use your regular e-mail account, feel free to leave me a message, and I can send you a GMail invite. Traffic on the mailing list is relatively low, and we do not expect admins to read all messages to the list, but it would be nice if you could check on it at least every few weeks. Thanks for your time,--Eloquence 23:02, 4 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I can't seem to find any reply from you to the this old note... Do you know what the story is with these files?

Image:Italian-dialects.jpg

[edit]

Sorry, but, like I've already write in the discussion, I don't understand your point... The dialetcs names are in Italian, maybe this is your problem? The image is in the Italian wikipedia (see there) --F l a n k e r 15:47, 17 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

First the names are known to me even in Italian, and also the names are not the accepted names for these languages. GerardM 06:26, 18 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Accepted by who? And also which are that names? --F l a n k e r 08:45, 18 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I think you're alone in your belief, and it can't be anything else, because in my map there are informations so obvious and well acquainted for Italian speaking people. Why do you persist in your absurd request? Moreover I've uploaded the map in the Italian Wiki (see [1] and [2]), so I don't use that one. Cheers, F l a n k e r 22:35, 13 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
PS: precisely, keep asking for reference for this map is the same thing like to asking reference for the statement "the water is wet"... And check your sources, maybe those are original research, but, for sure, not my map.
Moving the map to the Italian Wikipedia only moves the problem and does not solve it. I have seen an authoritative source that explains Campano as a dialect of "spoken Neapolitan" this is done in a similar way for Abbruzese. FYI it was in the concept for the upcoming ISO-639-6.
So here is one authoritative source that supports that "water is wet". GerardM 14:39, 14 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
When you want to made a reply, please send that reply to the user discussion page, otherwise the recipient can't notice your new text.
So, I read about Ethnologue page for Italy. It is not far for my map, why do you think is so wrong?
For the Neapolitan: this language is spoken principally in Neaples (Napoli), in other city of Campania there are many sensible variations of this idiom. So sensible that is absolutely incorrect to say that at, say, Salerno is spoken Neapolitan. Is for that reason that I named "campano" the language spoken in Campania, is a common word in Italy, and make everyone happy. Unfortunately Ethnologue simplify too much a complex reality (is understandable, as it is an international point of view). If my map is round down, Ethnologue is unacceptable rounded down.
Anyhow you are the only one that have problem whit this map. F l a n k e r 19:13, 14 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Do you need sources? Here and here it is... --F l a n k e r 20:06, 15 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

From the documentation it is clear that they did look at it from a dialectal perspective of the Neapolitan language. We will write these people for confirmation. GerardM 17:15, 19 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Why do you insist, making yourself ridicolous? Are you a troll? Would you ask references also for the sentence "Michelangelo paint the Sistina chapel"? Please stop it! Do you think you are a linguist? If so, visit Italy, visit Campania and then study Italian and his dialects, or languages or whatever you prefer to name them. Don't think you are right just because you think I'm wrong! Cheers, F l a n k e r 12:39, 22 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for providing images to the Wikimedia Commons. Please keep in mind that images uploaded to the Commons should be useful to all users of Wikimedia projects. This is possible only if the images can be found by other people.

To allow others to find the images you uploaded here, the images should be in some place that can be found by navigating the category structure. This means that you should put the images into appropriate topic pages, category(ies), optionaly gallery(ies), or both of them (see Commons:Categories). To find good categories for your images, the CommonSense tool may help.

You can find a convenient overview of your uploaded files in this gallery.

The important point is that the images should be placed in the general structure somewhere. There are a large number of completely unsorted images on the Commons right now. If you would like to help to place some of those images where they can be found, please do!

Thank you. Siebrand 13:57, 12 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. This message is sent out to you because you are an administrator on Commons, and you made little use (or no use) of the admin tools lately: less than 5 times in the last five months.

Commons has a new policy on admin activity, Commons:Administrators/De-adminship, taken into use on June 13, 2007 (after a poll among users). According to that policy, admins who use their tools infrequently will be asked whether they still need their adminship, and if they do not respond or require them the removal of the tools will be requested.

If you feel you still need your admin tools, please sign at Commons:Administrators/Inactivity section within 30 days from the date this message was sent out. However, if you then don't make 5 admin actions in the following 5 months, you will lose the adminship without any notice.

This is not a comment on the considerable help you have given to the project in the past but reflects the wish of the community to see active administrators and to ensure that possible security breaches are minimized.

STD picture query

[edit]

Hi there Gerard,

My name is Rachel and I work for the HIV and AIDS information charity AVERT. We are currently compiling some STD pictures to add to the STD section of our website at http://www.avert.org/std.htm

We have found some STD photos in Wikimedia commons that you uploaded on January 24th, 2005. We would like to use these photos for our new page, but before we can add them to our website we need to confirm that the people pictured are over 18.

Are you able to confirm this? I am wondering where you found the photos originally and if this source could confirm the age of the people pictured?

Thank you in advance for your reply. Aids charity 15:50, 14 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The pictures in question are from a Dutch STD organisation. They are already widely used and I have been given given explicit permission to use them for all purposes that help in the fight against people suffering from STDs. The way these pictures are, it is practically impossible to connect them with any person. So yes, I am willing to confirm that these pictures are of people aged 18 years or above. GerardM 16:31, 14 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks very much, Gerard. I'm sure these pictures will be of much benefit to our readers. Aids charity 13:04, 17 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, GerardM!
Tip: Add categories to your files
Tip: Add categories to your files

Thanks a lot for contributing to the Wikimedia Commons! Here's a tip to make your uploads more useful: Why not add some categories to describe them? This will help more people to find and use them.

Here's how:

1) If you're using the UploadWizard, you can add categories to each file when you describe it. Just click "more options" for the file and add the categories which make sense:

2) You can also pick the file from your list of uploads, edit the file description page, and manually add the category code at the end of the page.

[[Category:Category name]]

For example, if you are uploading a diagram showing the orbits of comets, you add the following code:

[[Category:Astronomical diagrams]]
[[Category:Comets]]

This will make the diagram show up in the categories "Astronomical diagrams" and "Comets".

When picking categories, try to choose a specific category ("Astronomical diagrams") over a generic one ("Illustrations").

Thanks again for your uploads! More information about categorization can be found in Commons:Categories, and don't hesitate to leave a note on the help desk.

[edit]

I ask you politely to remove the link to MOR from the FPC pages. FPC is a collective project with a rationale and a history, and any non-trivial change to its purpose and policy (even if implicit) should be discussed. Thanks, Alvesgaspar (talk) 18:12, 18 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for introducing an acronym that is new to me. FPC is indeed a collective project and it is about pictures. In its past it has been agreed on that the current emphasis on digital photography is not good for the project. When you consider that it apparantly took a fight to "allow" for a meet the illustrators something that was not reflected on. The history is one that is not that happy. When things get discussed nothing happens and asking for attention for restorations and the people who do them is appropriate.
When you think that this is not the case say so. At this moment all you are doing is hide behind formality. One of the principles of the Wiki is to be bold. The arguments why in the featured pictures restorations have their place are obvious and clear. The criteria for a FPC are biased towards digital photography it has been agreed upon that they need refactoring to reflect the new reality and you now ask to undo all this for the sake of formality ? Thank you no GerardM (talk) 19:27, 18 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Be my guest

[edit]

If you want to make a fool out of yourself, the restorers, and ultimately commons (if the press gets to see that page), be my guest. This is just a silly childish action, purely out of spite. --Dschwen (talk) 20:05, 18 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for having an opinion, thank you talking before moving headlong into a conflict. As I mentioned in the comment, a restorer is someone who restores the original material. This is something we do not do. GerardM (talk) 20:08, 18 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I have to savor this a little more A genuine restore done by restorers is done on the actual material. This is not what we do. We reconstruct something digitally, so (by your own made up definition) you are not restorers but something else, and instead of making up a new word you chose to use one that already has an entirely different meaning. I am frankly flabbergasted. --Dschwen (talk) 20:57, 18 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Try the word "homonym", it applies. Thanks, GerardM (talk) 23:10, 18 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
No, it does not apply. And I'm beginning to wonder if you actually think you are right or whether you continue making up pseudo-explanations because you think I'm your enemy and just cannot get yourself to say well, I guess you were right, the renaming was indeed the right move. Let me apologize, but in my line of work I'm used to deal with people whose minds work on a rational level, so I might not be good at this game here. In any case if you have any credible source whatsoever that shows your meaning of the word restorationist as opposed to the Merriam-Webster version restorer I'll gladly say sorry, I was wrong, and it would certainly help me sleep tonight. But this twisted discussion is starting to make me feel pretty uneasy. --Dschwen (talk) 23:20, 18 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Ok add another word that applies "neologism". Thanks, GerardM (talk) 07:32, 19 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
No, first of all it is not another word that applies, as homonym already didn't apply, at least outside your little world, where you make up new meanings. Since image restoration is done on the actual material should we call what you are doing image restorationism? As the verb to restore an image refers to the work done on the actual material should we call what you are doing to restorationate an image? I'd like to be polite and say that I'm looking forward to your answer, but so far you haven't answered any of my points (hello, source?!). Although this weaseling does have some mild entertainment value. Oh, and I perfectly realize that we have drifted so far into sarcasm-land that it is becoming near impossible for you to admit your mistake while still saving face. That I do regret, because ultimately it is hurtful to commons, which will be the butt-end of this joke, should the press get not of MOR (and should they care enough). --Dschwen (talk) 13:15, 19 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
[edit]

Regarding File:Democratic presidential ticket 1864b.jpg; Sorry but I don't feel I can reconsider my opinion. I don't find these campaign images compelling. I think FPs should be outstanding contributions within a genre, not a standard example of the genre. My main issue is that 75% of these images is the same from one to the next; the only things that ever change on them are the pictures of the candidates and the image in the lower central oval. The photos of the candidates are not outstanding and nor if the image in the lower oval. So what, therefore, is outstanding about the rest? Nothing in my opinion. It's not a big deal really; it's going to pass anyways. All the best fr33kman -s- 20:33, 19 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hoi, the same can be said of the next monument, the next bug in a macro, the next illustration of a moving part. The point of these things is the same. Are they great specimen of their category. Thanks, GerardM (talk) 23:42, 19 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I, don't think they are great examples of their category. The first restoration might be a great image, but after that it's just more of the same. As I said, these cards only ever changed three aspects of the image; the candidates and the lower oval scene. None of these three is outstanding in my opinion. It's a personal choice I guess. My !votes not going to make a difference one way or the other here. I'd not change it even if it was going to affect the outcome. Sorry :) fr33kman -s- 16:11, 20 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Roepers

[edit]

Blijkt alsof de luidste roepers [3], [4], [5] toch altijd aan het langste eind trekken... Jammer. In plaats van wat nuttig werk te doen (en dan heb ik het niet over de restauraties). Misschien moet je hem ook maar 'ns aanmanen het wat kalmer te doen en zelf niet altijd als de verontwaardigde ontschuld één kant te kiezen. Ik heb Durova, bvb al veel verstandiger uitspraken zien doen. Het is nu eenmaal niet zo dat Alvesgaspar of ikzelf iets tegen het verfraaien van historische documenten hebben, integendeel. Echter de aggresieve manier waarop dit wordt opgedrongen is ongehoord. Vooral door personen die buiten hun uploads niets anders doen dan commentaar geven op idereeen die het niet met hun eens is. Mijn standpunten zijn vaak kritischer dan die van een ander maar daarom hoeft mijn naam nog niet door het slijk te worden gehaald. Lycaon (talk) 09:32, 23 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hoi, in wat ik doe ben ik afhankelijk van de mensen die restaureren. Ik werk in deze vooral samen met Durova. We zijn bezig om onze groep uit te breiden, hiertoe gebruiken we een skype groep. Dit werkt goed omdat de plaatjes ook middels skype aangeboden kunnen worden aan newbies. Durova helpt diegene die willen restaureren met raad en daad. Ik neem aan dat je gemerkt hebt dat we een pagina begonnen zijn met kandidaat restauraties. Ons doel is om met een grote groep vrijwilligers VEEL plaatjes te restaureren en "featured pictures" is daar een onderdeel van.
In de communicatie jou en Alvesgaspar zie ik geen enkele motivatie waarom restauraties geen plaats mogen hebben als featured picture. Wanneer je nu zegt dat je niets hebt tegen het "verfraaien van historische documenten" dan snap je volgens mij niet wat het doel is van de restauraties die we doen. We voegen namelijk niets toe, het doel is veel eerder om de verkleuringen, de vouwen, de scheurtjes te verwijderen. Het doel is om het materiaal dat we restaureren in de oude glorie te herstellen en daardoor een betere illustratie aan te leveren dan alleen een kwalitatief hoorwaardige scan.
Je noemt je standpunt "kritisch". Ik ben het met die karakterisering niet eens immers het komt over als een campagne tegen restauraties. Opmerkingen als "als het oud is dan kan het getoond worden" zet compleet de verkeerde toon. Wanneer je plaatjes af doet als "nog een voorbeeld uit een categorie" dan geef je anderen de ruimte om de volgende foto van een insect ook zo af te doen.
In je stemgedrag en argumentaties zie ik boosheid omdat we ons profileren als een belangrijke groep op Commons. Boosheid omdat we niet gevraagd hebben om onze plaats, maar laten we wel wezen, kan jij mij uitleggen waarom de Engelstalige Wikipedia zo veel meer restauraties accepteerd, waarom de vijandigheid die Commons kenmerkt afwezig is?
Wij zijn onderdeel van Commons omdat Commons veel breder hoort te zijn als de Engelstalige Wikipedia. Wat nu bereikt wordt is dat de nieuwe restorationisten wel op en.wp featured pictures krijgen en Commons links laten liggen omdat het als veels te vijandig gezien wordt. Mij lijkt dat dit Commons en haar gemeenschap te kort doet. Mij lijkt dat dit noch jouw noch Alvegaspar's bedoeling is. Groetjes, GerardM (talk) 15:55, 23 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Did you allow http://www.adler-reisen.de/wildarten.htm to use the Zwijntje.JPG on their web page (3rd row in the block of the images, at right)? Wikipedia:de:User:S1 told me that they were using his Kottenforst-Rothirsch.jpg without permission and not following the published license terms, which he is taking action about. Greetings --Purodha Blissenbach (talk) 23:48, 28 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

POTY

[edit]

Hi, GerardM. I read this Commons-l post - is it yours? If so, let me respond you here, for I feel a little difficulty to post a comment to the mailing list in English.

I arranged all the Final result and asked to check it, but no one would. So I announced the results as it is. I would be relieved and happy, if you will check and correct them if necessary. If you think you should edit the result of POTY2008, please do so - an explanation of the reason in Commons talk:Picture of the Year/2008 beforehand would be preferable.

If you prefer an official reaction, list your name in the committee member. Thank you.--miya (talk) 12:12, 2 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Valued images are not valued at all

[edit]

Hi Gerard, I saw you making this comment here and something along the same lines here. I do not mind when users see some projects as not worthwhile, as every user is entitled to have an opinion. That is also true in this case. I would be interested in some insight into the observations/feelings/impressions you base your opinion on. I am curios to hear because I originally initiated the valued images project, and naturally, I have a quite opposite view on this. What I hear most is appraisal of the project, but that may just be users trying to be kind without really telling the truth, and there are also certain aspect of the project and how it is running, which I could have wished were doing better. I think hearing the opinion from "opposers" may sometimes be a better place to find sources for improvement, so I hope you will take your time to drop a few lines with your impressions about the Valued Images project. Best wishes, --Slaunger (talk) 22:31, 26 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

There is no benefit to this program. It is used as an argument not to feature a picture. It is used against graphics and restorations. I am in favour of ending this program because in my observation it has a net negative effect. GerardM (talk) 06:22, 27 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Do you have any specific examples where it has been used against graphics and restorations? Before we had VI, we only had the oppose votes for those images, which were valuable, but not good enough for FP. It is not my perception that the opening of COM:VI triggered any change in which types of images were opposed at COM:FPC. I believe that was more a slap in the face of the nominators than today, where there is an alternative path for some highlightning of good and valuable media. The FP bar has to be set very high. IMO so high that only about one image can be promoted per day, such that they do not queue up for Picture of the day. With such a high bar there will naturally be quite a lot of valuable images, which will not be featured, and here I believe VI is a good alternative, if the image meets the requirements.
As a counter-example of whether valued images are valued or not, I would like to mention one of the first VIs we had, File:Kaaba mirror edit jj.jpg of the Kaaba. This photo does not have the technical quality to become featured, but it is VI within two scopes and it is shown on the main page of COM:VI. The creator Muhammad Mahdi Karim has since received 12 requests/informative notes of reuse of that particular image on his talk page. I have never seen so much external interest for a single image on Commons. I think that is a clear illustration that at least this valued image is a "valued image". Of course, I do not know if the many requests have anything to do with the exposure on the main page of COM:VI, actually I do not think so, rather I think it is because it is truly valued as good and freely licensed images of the Kaaba are simply not available. --Slaunger (talk) 22:04, 27 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
The current requirements for featured pictures are biased towards digital photography. As a consequence we have a lot of macro photography of insects, vistas and photos where the colour balance makes for arty and artificial images. The material that matters and should be featured because they show the best of what we have to offer is not really that. Imho featured pictures should show what makes Commons important. Historic material and illustrations are essentially more valuable and demonstrate the value of Commons better.
When technical criteria prevents the most relevant pictures not te be featured, it is clear that those criteria show a bias and deserve to be changed. GerardM (talk) 22:13, 27 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Oh, so as I see your viewpoint is more that the FP criteria (or current FPC review practise) is wrong, not that VIs are not VIs at all? --Slaunger (talk) 22:20, 27 July 2009 (UTC) ...And maybe it would be a good idea to voice your opinion here then? --Slaunger (talk) 22:24, 27 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I do not perceive the added values of valued images while the push of important material away from featured pictures is strong. When you say "valued" it needs to be measurable and I only notice the negatives. GerardM (talk) 22:38, 27 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Tropenmuseum images

[edit]

Hi Gerard, I understand from Peter Weiss that you are in contact with the Tropenmuseum and would be able to request high resolution images for restoration. Over the last year I added a few candidates here, many of which are now in use on multiple Wikipedias. I think it would be great if we could obtain high resolution copies which than could be restored and promoted on Commons and various Wikipedias to FP status to raise awareness of this valuable donation. I would be able to help with restoration, but I am sure others would help out too. I am particularly interested in File:COLLECTIE TROPENMUSEUM De Bragaweg Bandoeng TMnr 10014713.jpg and File:COLLECTIE TROPENMUSEUM Villa Isola aan de Lembangweg bij Bandoeng TMnr 60026637.jpg.

Dear Wikimedians,

Wikimedia Commons is happy to announce that the second round of the 2013 Picture of the Year competition is now open. This year will be the eighth 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 (2013) 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 were 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.

There are two total rounds of voting. In the first round, you voted for as many images as you liked. The top 30 overall and the most popular image in each category have continued to the final. In the final round, you may vote for just one image to become the Picture of the Year.

Round 2 will end on 7 March 2014. https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Commons:Picture_of_the_Year/2013/Introduction/en Click here to learn more and vote »]

I'm creating Anki decks of cards to assist my learning, but its quite slow to have to look up the wiktionary page every time. Do you know of any way I could download all the audio files at once? Or if you still have them stored locally, of a way I could get them?

Thanks!

I'm sorry, but that does not constitute providing actual evidence of permission.

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. Warning: Wikimedia Commons takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

Please add the required information for this and other files you have uploaded before adding more files. If you need assistance, please ask at the help desk. Thank you!

autrice in Dutch

[edit]

Hi @GerardM: ,

I left a message on your Wiktionary page, but maybe you haven't seen it. I created a "Citations" tab in the Wiktionary entry autrice, with some Dutch ones, and I was wondering, as you have recorded the pronunciation of a lot of Dutch words, if you would like to record the pronunciation of autrice (and autrices, autricetje, autricetjes) in Dutch? You could use Lingua Libre for that. Thanks a lot for your help! Thomas Linard (talk) 12:39, 2 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hallo GerardM zonet stootte ik op deze 3 afbeeldingen: File:Zwijntje lowpx.jpg, File:Zwijntje 2.JPG en File:Zwijntje.JPG en ik vroeg me af of een rename misschien aan de orde is. Had je een voorstel of laat je het aan mij over? Thanks. Lotje (talk) 07:01, 14 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

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.

Click here to vote now!

Thanks,
the Wikimedia Commons Picture of the Year committee
