Why are you blocking me?

The image I uploaded has been given consent for by Sam Hyde, the owner of the image, who has emailed the letter of consent to Wikimedia. It's not being used without his permission. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sp00n exe (talk • contribs) 16:44, 29 October 2017 (UTC)

@Sp00n exe: I am not blocking you, I do not have permission to do that on this wiki. Do you have permission from the photographer to upload File:SamHydePortrait.png with a license free enough for us? Do you have permission from the government of Czechoslovakia to upload File:CzechoslovakiaStamp2.jpg with a license free enough for us?   — Jeff G. ツ 17:39, 29 October 2017 (UTC)

@Sp00n exe: Who was the photographer of File:SamHydePortrait.png?   — Jeff G. ツ 13:22, 5 November 2017 (UTC)

@Jeff G.: It was Sam Hyde, the very person in the photo who is the focus of the photo and who I had contacted to get permission to use and requested that they send the letter of consent to the required address.   — User:Sp00n exe User:Sp00n exe 13:22, 5 November 2017 (UTC)

@Sp00n exe: I haven't seen the photo, so forgive me for asking the obvious, but under what circumstances was he both subject and photographer?   — Jeff G. ツ 18:33, 5 November 2017 (UTC)

Unable to load Commons images

Tracked in Phabricator
Task T180012

Hi Jeff,

I'm still having no luck viewing images on Commons. You kindly answered my query on the Help Desk on 1 November, but still the images are not being displayed. Look at File:Commons - no images.png, this is what I get with all images on Commons (I cannot see this image, but I have been able to upload it). Can you help??? (P.S. please instantly delete File:Commons - no images.png when you see it, thanks). SethWhales ^talk 10:54, 5 November 2017 (UTC)

@Seth Whales: What do you see at https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/b/b1/Commons_-_no_images.png , https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/b1/Commons_-_no_images.png/320px-Commons_-_no_images.png , and https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/9/93/Commons_to_Wikipedia.png ? What browser, OS, and computer are you using? Have you tried different ones? Re User talk:Seth Whales#Help, more specific messages than "Cannot securely connect to this page. This might be because the site uses outdated or unsafe TLS security settings. If this keeps happening, try contacting the website’s owner." will be helpful.   — Jeff G. ツ 12:55, 5 November 2017 (UTC)

@Jeff G.: Sorry for the delay, sometimes I just can't get onto Commons at all. To answer your question. When I ckick on https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/b/b1/Commons_-_no_images.png I see a black logo of Wikimedia and the text

ticket:2017112010005977 otrs pending processing please kindly help

Hi there i am a photographer i came to know that you are a otrs active member please confirm the above ticket its been in processing stage for a longtime. I photographed those photos of actor vijay during a photoshoot and i have released it under creative commomns universal licence with no restrictions thank you kindly update it into permission otrs in the archive. I have sent them mail regarding my licence confirmation and identity proof.--Starunique (talk) 10:25, 21 November 2017 (UTC)

@Starunique: OTRS, like Commons, is entirely staffed by volunteers, and, also like Commons, is shorthanded, so it may be close to 24 days before the e-mail is processed.   — Jeff G. ツ 12:34, 21 November 2017 (UTC)

VFC "my own photograph" removal

Jeff G, I think your recent bulk VFC edit removing "my own photograph" from a number of files resulted in some errors. For example, this edit does not seem appropriate. —RP88 (talk) 00:09, 23 November 2017 (UTC)

Sorry, I undid that one and I won't do more.   — Jeff G. ツ 00:20, 23 November 2017 (UTC)

Thanks. I just now checked another at random, and it appears to be an erroneous edit. So you may want to do a quick manual review of the VFC edits to see if there are others that need to be fixed. —RP88 (talk) 00:26, 23 November 2017 (UTC)

@RP88:  Done   — Jeff G. ツ 13:13, 25 November 2017 (UTC)

Una nueva foto del mismo lugar solo para ti

Aquí está el mismo lugar, hace unas semanas.--Don (talk) 19:33, 26 November 2017 (UTC)

@WPPilot: Thank you, Don, but beaches and sunbathers are better photographed in daylight and I prefer English.   — Jeff G. ツ 19:40, 26 November 2017 (UTC)

As you wish, it was just a pic from a event a few weeks ago, on my phone ;) Cheers! --Don (talk) 19:51, 26 November 2017 (UTC)

@WPPilot: Cheers!   — Jeff G. ツ 00:01, 27 November 2017 (UTC)

btw: I only used Spanish as I noticed the conversation above and I rarely contribute anything Wiki anymore. I now see the basic Spanish badge on your user page.. --Don (talk) 00:15, 27 November 2017 (UTC)
