Sullenberger photo

Hi -- I saw you uploaded a cropped version of the Sullenberger photo over top of the existing one... while the crop is a good thing to have, usually it is best to upload it as a separate image, rather than over top of an existing one, since the crop is so different than the original -- it is best to have both available for use. The existing one also included a Congressman and the award, which could be interesting in other scenarios. I would be happy to upload the crop separately, or would you like to do it? Carl Lindberg (talk) 03:03, 30 January 2009 (UTC)

You may have the honour of uploading it :) Especialy as I'm unsure whether to use the picture with the auto levels or the original. Jolly Ω Janner 16:13, 30 January 2009 (UTC)

Okay, I chose the auto levels -- File:Chesley Sullenberger honored crop.jpg  :-) Carl Lindberg (talk) 05:18, 31 January 2009 (UTC)

Paint on sheep

Hi Jolly Janer,

and thanks for your answer. I figured out by myself that the paint relates to marking ownerships. But it is a little bit odd or at least unusual that they use paint, not the traditional ear tags. Especially when sheep are usually bred for their wool.

Since many people have asked about the paint it would be a bonus, if you could add the information to the information template of the image.

•  Comment I'd rather use "Saltram House" as a scope, what do you think? It looks more natural to me. Additionally, the image needs to be geotagged. --Eusebius (talk) 21:29, 17 February 2009 (UTC)

  • Thanks for the geotag :) I was considering using Saltram House as a topic, but I thought it was too precise. This is my first time at valued images, but after having a look at other I think that my initial response was incorrect and that Saltram House would be a more appropriate scope. Cheers once again!

review

Sorry about the broad scope, but this is literaly a photograph of Great Britain. Jolly Janner (talk) 23:14, 19 February 2009 (UTC)

•  Question Hmm. with that scope why would your nomination be better than e.g. this map? BTW, I'm also missing the Orkneys and the Shetlands... Lycaon (talk) 12:57, 20 February 2009 (UTC)

The topographical map fails to visualise land use within cities. This map shows grey areas to help users understand the size of Great Britain's cities. The topographical map also fails to visualise land use for farms such as the inability to notice farmland used for crops in Norfolk and Sufolk, compared to grassland farming (the use of livestock) across much of the island. Areas of mud/marsh/sand are not visible, especialy the large area hugging the coast of Esssex. Jolly Janner (talk) 13:17, 20 February 2009 (UTC)

Not at all convinced by your arguments. At that scale the features you are mentioning are all but visible. And the mud/marsh/sand area hugging Essex you are mentioning is just turbulence in the shallow waters, not part of the Great Britain (it is Crown Estate however, but that's getting us to far). An I'm still missing the northern Scottish isles. Lycaon (talk) 12:59, 21 February 2009 (UTC)

This is a photo for the island of Great Britain. Why would other nearby islands be needed? Jolly Janner (talk) 13:06, 21 February 2009 (UTC)

"Great Britain" has both a political and a geographical definition. According to the political one, these islands are included. According to the geographical one, only the main island is included (taken from the English article). The scope is therefore ambiguous. --Eusebius (talk) 09:12, 22 February 2009 (UTC)

I have changed the scope name to Island of Great Britain. Jolly Janner (talk) 13:09, 22 February 2009 (UTC)

•  Comment I'm not happy about the clouds covering a significant part of the Scottish lowlands and Grampian mountains. --Eusebius (talk) 09:15, 22 February 2009 (UTC)

• It's rare that the entire island is without any cloud cover, so this is probably the most valuable image we're gonna get. See here for NASA's photos of Great Britain. Jolly Janner (talk) 13:08, 22 February 2009 (UTC)

• It's possible to build cloud-free pictures of large areas based on several series of satellite pictures, but for the "most valuable" criterion we must base ourselves only on the currently available pictures, not the possible ones. I was not talking about this criterion, though, but about "Must illustrate its subject well": here we take the paradigm of the satellite picture, but we accept that a large area is not illustrated. With a map, for instance, we don't have to make that choice. --Eusebius (talk) 14:51, 22 February 2009 (UTC)

• Would the scope of Sattelite image of Great Britain be too narrow? Jolly Janner (talk) 14:54, 22 February 2009 (UTC)

It would probably be better, I think. --Eusebius (talk) 11:55, 23 February 2009 (UTC)

Ambiguity is back, though. Would Satellite image of the island of Great Britain (or of Great Britain mainland?) be too long? --Eusebius (talk) 12:47, 24 February 2009 (UTC)

Yes. Jolly Janner (talk) 18:52, 25 February 2009 (UTC)

Tip: Categorizing images

---

Hello, Jolly Janner!

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.

{{FoP-France}}

Hi Jolly Janner.
I reverted your edit on {{FoP-France}} because many images are tagged with this image even they should not get deleted. Commons:De minimis includes Louvre at night centered.jpg and says "This photograph was taken in France, but is not a copyright violation since it is of the entire plaza, and not just the Louvre Pyramid.". Same should be OK for Louvre 2007 02 24 c.jpg.
Even some images should be deleted I don't think that changing the included category is a good idea anyway. either the category should be cleaned up by hand or the template should be removed on all acceptable images to avoid their deletion because this wouldn effect a big disprofit and waould take a lot of tim to undelete and sort them.
Examples: Anne Duchesse de Bretagne sculpture in Nantes France 2008 4.JPG -> derivative work and copyvio; Eglise saint nicolas et tour de bretagne.jpg ->OK. This church was built between 1844 and 1869 and thereby the copyright has expired; Rives sur Berges-1.JPG -> Depending on what you consider as "De mini"

He's probably talking about the legend / colour scale that you've put into the description, but it should really go into that image. -- H005 (talk) 23:12, 26 August 2009 (UTC)

But then it'll be confusing for the other language Wikipedias♠ for which the image is used on. See an example. Jolly Janner (talk) 00:00, 27 August 2009 (UTC)

I believe the color boxes with their ranges next to them (e.g. 1000 < x < 1500) will be understood in any language. Just leave out the commas, they are language-dependent and can be misinterpreted. -- H005 (talk) 16:21, 27 August 2009 (UTC)

Re: CA

CA

CA stands for chromatic aberration, which is the distortion of colors caused by several flaws such as over-exposure, motion blur, improper aperture, or basically lens that aren't able to focus all colors. It's like red and cyan fringes around the object. See the image on the right for an example. CA can somewhat improved though. ZooFari 21:56, 1 January 2010 (UTC)

Xynthia animated small.gif

Hi Jolly Janner. I just see that you uploaded the file File:Xynthia animated small.gif (and other) about the evolution of the extratropical cyclone Xynthia. Unfortunately, the source of the images, EUMETSAT, doesn't release their content under public domain (it's copyrighted, you may read the data policy here). It's embarrassing that European agencies don't promote the free use of data & knowledge, as it happens in the US (the images that I uploaded comes from NOAA and NASA satellites). So I must ask the quick deletion of this files. Regards, Montgomery (talk) 22:59, 28 February 2010 (UTC)

Hi, that's a nice map you made there. I just had a look at the BBC page and they also show a US Air Force base at Aviano in north-eastern Italy, and RAF Akrotiri on Cyprus. Could you please add these too? De728631 (talk) 00:45, 21 March 2011 (UTC)

Oops, yeah, missed the USAF base. I can't add the one for Cyprus yet, as the source map I used oddly didn't have the island of Cyprus. I will work on trying to find an outline of Cyprus somewhere first to add to the map. Thanks for pointing it out. Jolly Janner (talk) 00:49, 21 March 2011 (UTC)

Hi Jolly Janner. Can you update the map with Rota and Moron Air Bases? Those airports are beign used as bases for USAF tankers. --Dura-Ace (talk) 18:26, 21 March 2011 (UTC)

AV referendum map

Thanks for that ;)

Question though and I'm sure you noticed this, I got the Scottish and Welsh lists in alphabetical order. However, while the order of the English districts does have a logic to it, but is much more haphazard - was that a pain for you in making the derivative?

I think it might be useful to make a similar map showing the turnout - w:Talk:United Kingdom Alternative Vote referendum, 2011#Turnout.--Nilfanion (talk) 22:20, 7 May 2011 (UTC)

• Yes, I wanted to pull my fucking hair out. At first it seemed as though they were organised randomly into a few areas close to each other, as it I had about eight in a row that were from the same place (so could easily see results back and forth on my web browser) and then I would have to scroll somewhere else when it jumped to another location. Eventually it jumped around on every single district. I think by then I realised it may have been ordered by unitary authorities as they appeared to all be grouped together.
• Yeah, I like the idea of a turnout map too. Will post comments regarding that on the relevant talk page. Jolly Janner (talk) 22:30, 7 May 2011 (UTC)

You can blame OS for that, the order is theirs and its

1. Non-unitary districts, by county
2. London boroughs
3. Met boroughs
4. Unitaries

A further source of confusion is some districts are "City of", such as Plymouth, and Brighton is "The City of..." so gets sorted somewhere else again(!)

I didn't have time to alter the order to something sane - either alphabetic nationally or group by county would be logical. I will do so in the blank district map later--Nilfanion (talk) 22:58, 7 May 2011 (UTC)

About an Image

Hello Jolly Janner, Could you please upload an image for India – United States relations particularly their "Map indicating location of India and USA".--Kkm010 (talk) 15:33, 12 May 2011 (UTC)

do it tomorrow mate. Jolly Janner (talk) 01:43, 14 May 2011 (UTC)

Please upload another Map for "France–India relations".

And for this map, please mention the "red color" in the map whom India doesn't have any relation also the disputed areas.--Kkm010 (talk) 06:13, 19 May 2011 (UTC)

I have no idea which countries should be red nor which are disputed by India. You can do it yourself in Inkscape. Jolly Janner (talk) 15:52, 19 May 2011 (UTC)

Thank you for providing images to Wikimedia Commons. Please keep in mind that images and other files on Commons must be under a free license and should be useful to the Wikimedia projects. To allow others to use your files, some additional information must be given on the description page. Most importantly:

• Describe what it is about in a short sentence. (What does the image show?)
• State the author and the date of creation. If you made it yourself, say so explicitly. If it is from another Wikimedia user, link to the person's local user page. Best to use CommonsHelper.
• If you did not create the file yourself, state the source you got it from.
• Add a copyright tag - images without an appropriate license tag will be deleted.
• Add the image to one or more gallery pages and/or appropriate categories, so it can be found by others. To find out where an image belongs, you can use CommonsSense.

If you copied the file from another wiki, please copy all information given there and say who uploaded it to that wiki. Use CommonsHelper.

It is recommended to use Template:Information to put that information on the description page. Have a look at Template talk:Information for details of the use of this template.

You can edit the description page and change the text. Uploading a new version of the file does not change the description of the file.

Please add as much information as possible. If there is not sufficient information, the file may have to be deleted. For more information, follow the Commons:First steps guide. If you need help or have questions, please ask at the Help desk.

Copyright status: File:Western Beacon in snow.jpg

This media may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading File:Western Beacon in snow.jpg. I notice that the file page either doesn't contain enough information about the license or it contains contradictory information about the license, so the copyright status is unclear. If you created this file yourself, then you must provide a valid copyright tag. For example, you can tag it with {{self|GFDL|cc-by-sa-all}} to release it under the multi-license GFDL plus Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike All-version license or you can tag it with {{PD-self}} to release it into the public domain. (See Commons:Copyright tags for the full list of license tags that you can use.) If you did not create the file yourself or if it is a derivative of another work that is possibly subject to copyright protection, then you must specify where you found it (e.g. usually a link to the web page where you got it), you must provide proof that it has a license that is acceptable for Commons (e.g. usually a link to the terms of use for content from that page), and you must add an appropriate license tag. If you did not create the file yourself and the specific source and license information is not available on the web, you must obtain permission through the VRT system and follow the procedure described there. Note that any unsourced or improperly licensed files will be deleted one week after they have been marked as lacking proper information, as described in criteria for deletion. If you have uploaded other files, please confirm that you have provided the proper information for those files, too. If you have any questions about licenses please ask at Commons:Village pump/Copyright or see our help pages. Thank you.

File:World map of countries by annual prevalence of cannabis use.svg requires updating

Hi Jolly Janner,
Thank you for your contributions to Commons. I noticed File:World map of countries by annual prevalence of cannabis use.svg is out of date. Could you update it? Thanks again.

According to what is cited on the Annual cannabis use by country Wikipedia page, as of 2020 Chile had the highest annual cannabis use of all countries at 34.8%, which does not appear to be indicated as such on this map. Other updates in line with what it cited on that page may also be needed. Helper201 (talk) 11:52, 16 September 2021 (UTC)
