Deprecation of language templates

Hi,
I saw that you've done a great job to help reduce the number of references to deprecated language templates: thanks a lot!
For language templates that are used on less than 500 pages, I've choosen to put <s>...</s>; the yellow background with the tooltip message were intended to prepare the transition of templates that are used on more pages... I let you decide wether it's better or not to use the same yellow background and tooltip messages on templates that are not used any more (i.e. that were completely dereferenced). You may want to look at my user page to get a list of templates I'm currently working on. Also have a look at the Category:Deprecated templates. :)
Best regards from France,

You're welcome.

I'm afraid I didn't spot that difference, but it doesn't really matter anymore when they're all replaced, does it? :)

--Ms2ger 08:31, 10 April 2007 (UTC)

You're right, it doesn't matter much :)

Thanks again for your commitment!

Image Tagging Image:EstadioPesidenteVargas.JPG

Hi!

I have created the image Image:EstadioPesidenteVargas.JPG. What's the difference between "Author" and "Source". I have specified that I am the author. Mansueto77 16:02, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

I see. I must've been too fast tagging your image, sorry.

Image:Flagge der kreisfreien Stadt Münster (Westfalen).svg

Hi Ms2ger. You reuploaded this svg valid, but you messed up colors, changed red and silver. I reverted to a correct, but maybe "invalid" version. If you like, please valid this version, too. Thanks, --schlendrian •λ• 09:00, 12 August 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for noticing me, I corrected it :) Ms2ger 09:37, 12 August 2007 (UTC)

Thanks --schlendrian •λ• 10:27, 12 August 2007 (UTC)

Image:Flag of USA.svg

Due to en:Wikipedia:Accessibility I removed your {{dupe}}, since images attributes like the United States don't make sense in other language wikis than EN and confuse disabled readers. If there's duplication, so it should go the other way around, remove Image:Flag of the United States.svg instead.--213.155.231.26 11:35, 30 August 2007 (UTC)

Changes by this user have been reverted. Cheers! Siebrand 12:37, 30 August 2007 (UTC)

Heh. Thanks :) Ms2ger 14:38, 30 August 2007 (UTC)

I took the picture. Didn´t you see the tag {{PD-self}}?

Thank's. Mansueto77 20:27, 31 December 2007 (UTC)

See above? —Ms2ger 11:45, 1 January 2008 (UTC)

decreasing svgs and make it compatibles

Hello Ms2ger. I see that you edit Image:Flag of Sabadell.svg with the summary "Valid SVG, decrease size". I'm very interested in known how do you do this. I upload a new version with correct colours but inkscape increase the file size even I save the document as plain svg. Could you explain me how make this changes? See you, --Xavigivax (talk) 15:29, 24 September 2008 (UTC)

Sorry for taking so long, I haven't been around a lot on commons. Basically, I edit it with a plain old text editor and remove all unnecessary information. In the case of flags, that's about all but the <svg> and <rect>. —Ms2ger (talk) 17:22, 23 January 2009 (UTC)

Tip: Categorizing images

---

Hello, Ms2ger!

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.
