Your most memorable shot 2020
Dear member of the Commons Photographers User Group,
Over the course of the past two years, we've been sharing pictures that have a special meaning with each other at the start of the new year. Today, I'm inviting you add your most memorable shot of 2020 to this page:
I hope you, your familiy, and your friends are well during these difficult times. I wish you all the best for 2021 and I can't wait to see what your most memorable shot of 2020 looks like.
Warmly, --Frank Schulenburg (talk) 20:40, 30 January 2021 (UTC)
Please participate in the Universal Code of Conduct consultation on Wikimedia Commons!
Dear Jean-Frédéric
Thank you for your hard work to create the sum of all knowledge that is freely sharable to every single human being across the world. As our diverse community grows, we need a guideline that will help all of our work collectively and constructively where everyone feels safe, welcomed, and part of a team. That is why the Wikimedia movement is working on establishing a global guideline called the Universal Code of Conduct, often referred to as UCoC.
After the months-long policy consultation, we have prepared a policy (available in many languages) that has been ratified by the Board of Trustees. We’re currently in the second phase of the process. During this round of consultation, we want to discuss the implementation of this policy. As a member of the functionary team of Wikimedia Commons, your opinion on enforcement is of great value. We want to hear from you on how this policy can be enforced on the Wikimedia Commons community and what might be needed to do so. There are a few enforcement questions so you can easily outline your answers based on them. Please do not hesitate to bring any more questions/challenges you think are not yet discussed.
The discussion is taking place on Commons:Universal Code of Conduct consultation. You can also share your thoughts by replying to this message (Please ping me so I get notified), posting your message on my talk page. I am aware that some thoughts cannot be expressed publicly, so you can always share your opinion by emailing me as well.
As a valued member of the Commons community, please share your thoughts, ideas, and experiences that relate to UCoC. Let us know what needs to be improved so we can build a more friendly and cooperative space to increase editor engagement and retention of new users.
Wikimedia projects are governed by you. So, it is you who needs to step up to ensure a safe, comfortable, and pleasant working environment.
Let me know if you have any questions.
Thank you! Wikitanvir (WMF) (talk) 10:18, 5 February 2021 (UTC)
Please take a short survey regarding UCoC
Hello Jean-Frédéric,
I would like to inform you that we now have a survey in place to take part in the UCoC consultation. It is not a long one and should take less than 10 minutes to complete. You can take the survey even if you have already participated in the on-wiki consultation. It has a different set of questions and allows you to participate anonymously and privately.
As a member of the Commons functionaries, your opinion is especially essential. Please click here to participate in the survey.
You are still welcome to participate in the on-wiki discussions. If you prefer you can have your say by sending me an email. You can also drop me an email if you want to have a one-to-one chat.
Thank you for your participation! Wikitanvir (WMF) 13:54, 12 February 2021 (UTC)

Dear Jean-Frédéric, your admin flag has been removed today per Commons:Administrators/Inactivity section/Feb-Mar 2021. If you have any questions, please let me know. Thank you for your service! --Krd 08:44, 13 February 2021 (UTC)
- User talk:Krd#Admin actions mistake user:Jean-Frédéric. Multichill (talk) 09:18, 13 February 2021 (UTC)
- Dear Jean-Frédéric, sadly your mediawiki namespace edits have not been taken into account, so the above removal is wrong and has been reversed. Apologies for the trouble! --Krd 09:30, 13 February 2021 (UTC)
- No worries Krd, thanks for the swift action − and thanks Multichill for catching this :) Jean-Fred (talk) 10:13, 15 February 2021 (UTC)
Next Commons Photographers meeting featuring large format photographer Ben Horne
Dear member of the Commons Photographers User Group,
I'm happy to invite you to our next virtual meeting on Saturday, March 20, at the usual time. As I mentioned during our last get-together, I'd like to invite external guests every now and then, given that it seems good to expand our view and learn something from someone outside our community.
Our first external guest, Ben Horne, will talk about large format wilderness photography, followed by a question-and-answer session. Ben is maybe one of best known contemporary large format photographers in the United States. On his excursions to national parks, he shoots 8×10 film and talks about his adventures on his YouTube channel which has attracted more than 48,000 followers so far. He is YouTube's first, and longest active landscape photography vlogger and I'm thrilled that he has agreed to join our next meeting and talk about his experiences.
If you're interested in joining this meeting, please sign up on the page below:
Also, don't forget to post your question(s) prior to the meeting on the following page in order to ensure a good and fruitful question-and-answer session:
I'm very much looking forward to this event and I hope you'll be able to join.
All the best, --Frank Schulenburg (talk) 21:39, 15 February 2021 (UTC)
Reminder: Commons Photographers meeting tomorrow
Just a quick reminder: the meeting with large format-photographer Ben Horne will happen tomorrow, Saturday, March 20. If you haven't done yet, please consider signing up for the event and add your questions to this page. This will be our first virtual meeting in 2021 and I'd be super happy if you could join. All the best, --Frank Schulenburg (talk) 16:39, 19 March 2021 (UTC)

I see you were involved early with the Flickr upload. The instructions here [1] do not mention any restrictions. I am trying to upload the image below that is not mine and it is failing.

Too lossy?
Hey Jean! I'm new here at Commons and did some crop work of File:Brian Fargo – Game Developers Conference China 2011.jpg. You then reverted this by saying it was too lossy. Could you please clarify so I'll understand how to improve with it in the future? Panini! (talk) 12:26, 8 September 2021 (UTC)
- Hi @Panini: , thanks for reaching out!
- Your crop’s resolution was 568×876, from an original of 3,744×5,616 − Lots of details were lost if you display the file at full resolution.
- I would recommend you use Commons:CropTool for any cropping − it is very convenient and will make sure to use the maximum resolution possible.
- Also, per Commons:Overwriting_existing_files, it is considered better practice on Commons to always upload substantial changes (including crops) as a separate file − especially if the file is used on other projects. That’s why I split your crop of File:Bob bates 2015 gdc.jpg to File:Bob bates 2015 gdc (cropped).jpg. Uploading as a separate file is something that CropTool does for you as well.
- Cheers, Jean-Fred (talk) 13:46, 8 September 2021 (UTC)
- Wow, the tool works great! Thanks for the advice! Panini! (talk) 14:08, 8 September 2021 (UTC)
