Tip: Categorizing images
[edit]
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.CategorizationBot (talk) 10:48, 21 September 2010 (UTC)

[edit]Hi Kognos,
Thank you very much for your work scanning out-of-copyright full sheet Ordnance Survey One Inch Seventh Series mapping.
To let you know, there are current projects on SABRE Maps (https://www.sabre-roads.org.uk/maps/) to georeference and freely publish every revision of every out-of-copyright sheet of the OS One Inch Seventh Series, OS Quarter Inch Fifth Series, OS Route Planning (and the previous Ten Mile Road Map of Great Britain), and OS Ministry of Transport Road Map for all to freely enjoy - and your map scans are proving to be an extremely useful addition at "filling in the gaps". We'd love to get you on board with this if you would be interested. 81.92.203.205 07:42, 24 March 2018 (UTC)
- Thanks for the link. I've taken a look, but it seems like a rather closed site - you can view maps but not download anything. I think I'll focus on getting stuff into Wikimedia, where public domain really means public, and let you use this material how you wish. Kognos (talk) 10:53, 31 March 2018 (UTC)
- I have only just found the valuable work you have done with Ordnance Survey One-Inch Sheet scanning following our contact on [Talk:Lindfield, West Sussex]. I am sorry to have preempted you with 170ǃ Redoubled thanks. Please add your 170 as it will likely be better than mine. As I have some unusual, if not unique maps which I would like to scan and upload I would be interested in how you scanned them. Do you have access to a large format scanner? I had to scan A4 and stitch which is useful if laborious and not ideal. You are likely aware of [1] but as I think it so wonderful I unashamedly proselytise.SovalValtos (talk) 06:17, 10 May 2020 (UTC)
- Thanks for the comments. I use an A3 flat-bed scanner, which I recommend - in practice this is more than twice as good as A4. I checked out A2, but the only one I could find cost over £6000! (A3 is about £200 I think, I've had mine for years). I stitch with Image Composite editor, set to planar motion. This works fine provided you have enough overlap. For an OS 6th or 7th one-inch map eight scans is sufficient. On the rare occasions that ICE fails (usually with large areas of sea) I will stitch manually using photoshop. I scan at 400 dpi, then may reduce to 300 depending on the map - 6th/popular maps have smaller lettering than 7th, so I leave these at 400. I'm currently scanning 1:25000 maps as well as the older NPE and Scottish popular edition. Yes, I also use NLS, a great resource. I'm looking forward to seeing the material you upload!

Public Domain Day !
[edit]Thanks for File:Ordnance Survey Map of the Antonine Wall, Published 1969.jpg. It's a beauty!
I'm just doing some work on the Wikidata items for stretches of the wall and forts on it, so it was a real joy to see this uploaded. Thank you! -- and for being so quick off the mark! Jheald (talk) 17:47, 2 January 2020 (UTC)
- @Jheald: Glad you found it useful. Are you looking at tte Wikipedia article on the Antonine Wall as well as Wikidata? The WP article looks like it could use some attention - George Macdonald is hardly mentioned, and the "Mapping the Wall" section does not mention the Ordnance Survey, which produced two major folios (in 1931, using Macdonald's data and in 1980) as well as the 1969 1:25000 map. I can add the 25000 map to the article, but the folios will need a trip to NLS. I found some of the background in: Linge, John (2004). "The cinderella service: The ordnance survey and the mapping of the antonine wall". Proceedings of the Society of Antiquaries of Scotland 134: 161-171. Kognos (talk) 22:14, 4 January 2020 (UTC)
- At the moment I'm just trying to collate together the entries on Canmore https://w.wiki/E$A with the Historic Environment Scotland scheduled monument entries https://w.wiki/E$B, get an idea of where the scheduled stretches start and finish, and make sure we have individual wikidata items for each of the forts. After that there's rather a lot more matching work between HS and Canmore for other scheduled monuments that I was in the midst of when the Antonine Wall interrupted, so I don't think I'll be taking on the en-wiki article, I'm afraid.
- The Canmore top-level entries for the wall for each 5k x 5k map sheet include summaries from the OS of what changes they made for the 1980 map over previous ones. It's also very clear how significant Macdonald's work was. So I'd agree, it would indeed be a fine thing if more of this was reflected in the en-wiki article.

Hewell Grange
[edit]Thank you very much for uploading those splendid old shots of Hewell Grange. I hope I’ve put them to good use. KJP1 (talk) 06:44, 31 December 2020 (UTC)
- @KJP1: Yes, the gallery looks splendid! Do you know anything about future plans for Hewell Grange now the young offender's institution is closed? It would be great to get some modern photos (if the interior is still in reasonable shape). Kognos (talk) 12:21, 2 January 2021 (UTC)
- Yes - they really enhance the article. The question re. the future is interesting, but not one I’ve been able to answer. I’m sure the MoJ will seek to flog it. According to Pevsner and Historic England, the interiors are in pretty good shape. But it would be ruinously expensive as a private home, or as a hotel, and I would imagine the, very close, proximity of the, still open, HMP Hewell Grange might be somewhat off-putting! I shall keep my eye on developments. KJP1 (talk) 13:20, 2 January 2021 (UTC)

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. |

Wikimaps Warper
[edit]Hello Kognos, I noticed you use the tool frequently and manage to have bounding boxes updated on Commons. Any suggestions why it doesn't work for others? See Commons:Village_pump/Technical#Wikimaps_Warper_edits_not_working.
Also, I made Category:Wikimaps Warper. If you want to add to it? BTW, I think the possibility to search maps should somehow be integrated in Commons and extended to all maps.
