Hi!

Permission for title image is valid, check it again. Cheers. Alan ^(talk) 16:07, 5 January 2015 (UTC)

I don't believe that the e-mail sender has enough rights to relaise this logo under a free license. Its only a staffer. --Steinsplitter (talk) 16:08, 5 January 2015 (UTC)

RFP

Hello, I would like to have user rights file mover, and rollbacker. The reason I want the file mover right is because I would like to assist in the requesting file move category, when no one else is avaliable. I am fully aware of the renaming policy. The reason I want the rollback right is so I could be able to undo multiple edits at once, and stop vandals quicker. 1989 07:52, 10 January 2015 (UTC)

Getting stats on OTRS backlogs

I recently asked Anon126 about Commons:OTRS/backlog. I understand that the figure there is updated manually on the basis of the English-language queue, and that there are no available figures at all for other queues. Do you think it would be possible to write a bot to provide some public stats on the OTRS backlogs (oldest ticket, average time to first response, average time to resolution and so on)? Would you have any interest in writing such a bot? --MichaelMaggs (talk) 13:09, 14 January 2015 (UTC)

I run my bot on toolslabs (shared hosting), therfore i don't want to access otrs (non public) for legal (privacy) reasons. There is also no otrs table replicated and therefore no query possible :-( . Maybe you can try to talk with otrs admins to find a way. --Steinsplitter (talk) 14:14, 14 January 2015 (UTC)

Hi, Steinsplitter, Happy new year.

I note that you're the most recent admin to have addressed an edit request for {{PD-USGov/en}}. Could you please take a look at my December 22 edit request there ("Please update to new Copyright Office Compendium (which became effective today)") and make the change if you agree? With the sunsetting of Compendium II and its replacement with the Third Edition, the template is now citing obsolete authority.

Nicole Stenger images

Hi,

I'm new to Wikimedia Commons, so bear with me.

You wiped out my Wikipedia page images on 1/6/2015, all my own artwork, for which I had granted copyright to Wikimedia Commons some time ago. Honestly I thought this license was permanent, and it was a bad surprise. You say "no permission since 12/29/2014" ???????

I can't edit my own Wikipedia page as you know.

Yesterday, from a new Wikimedia Commons account I just created, I uploaded 3 images of myself, for which I have full copyright,

https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?search=nicole+stenger&title=Special%3ASearch&go=Go

and they're now in the list of potential vios!

I'm lost.

Do you mind helping me with this?

How can the images in my Wikipedia page be restored?

Thank you.

Nicole Stenger

Hi, Can you please send permission to COM:OTRS? --Steinsplitter (talk) 18:12, 26 January 2015 (UTC)

Hi Steinsplitter. Can you take a quick look at this? I don't know anything about bots, so not sure if it's a problem or not. Thanks for your time. INeverCry 20:18, 26 January 2015 (UTC)

Any advice or correction would be appreciated. sats (talk) 14:55, 27 January 2015 (UTC)

In case I havent explained myself clearly enough - I had added part of the title in english - then when I was reading your bot refusal - and tried to make sense - is it wrong to add english to german or polish titles as a way of clarifying the title, or have i misinterpreted? sats (talk) 15:16, 27 January 2015 (UTC)

Edit-a-thons and its categories

Hello there. Firstly, sorry about my poor English. Just wanna ask about the default name for the categories about edit-a-thons. Since there is no edit-a-thons out of the Wikimedia movement (mapathons, perhaps, talking about OSM), I think its not necessary to use "Wikimedia edit-a-thon" on every single category here, for example. What do you think? Regards, Sturm (talk) 05:52, 28 January 2015 (UTC)

The move was requested by Smuconlaw. You need to talk with him :). Pinging @Smuconlaw: . --Steinsplitter (talk) 10:09, 28 January 2015 (UTC)

It's to align them with the parent category "Category:Wikimedia edit-a-thons". Also, renaming the subcategories ensures that people do not accidentally put files relating to other computer editing events in them. — SMUconlaw (talk) 10:37, 28 January 2015 (UTC)

Thank you, Smuconlaw. My question is: is there any "computer editing event" like edit-a-thons outside the Wikimedia world? Is "Wikimedia" really necessary to be attached to the edit-a-thons? Sturm (talk) 11:04, 28 January 2015 (UTC)

I wasn't sure, so I did a Google search. Pretty much all of the sites mentioned in the first eight pages related to Wikimedia events, but I note that the English Wikipedia's own article "Edit-a-thon" defines the term as "an event where editors get together to edit and improve a specific topic or type of content, typically including basic editing training for new editors", which seems to suggest it is a general term. Also, the article states that OpenStreetMap (not a Wikimedia project, I believe) also holds edit-a-thons. — SMUconlaw (talk) 15:14, 28 January 2015 (UTC)

 Done, Thanks for translating! --Steinsplitter (talk) 10:31, 30 January 2015 (UTC)

There's a very serious problem with translation of control panel. Control panel in croatian language says that I'm ineligible for voting (less than 75+ edits) and that is not correct. In english says that I'm eligible (with 75+ edits), and that is OK. I'm looking on my translation, but I can't find where is my mistake. Can you take a look, please?--Ma▀▄Ga 10:59, 30 January 2015 (UTC)

Pinging @Rillke: --Steinsplitter (talk) 11:06, 30 January 2015 (UTC)

@MaGa: poty-eligible on MediaWiki:Gadget-EnhancedPOTY.js/i18n/hr.js has a wrong translation. Can you say me what I should put in place of Nemate pravo glasovanja jer nemate $1 uređivanja na $2 prije $3.? -- Rillke^(q?) 22:25, 30 January 2015 (UTC)

@Rillke: it should be Imate pravo glasovanja jer imate $1 uređivanja na projektu $2 prije $3. Uh, what a stupid my mistake, I have not even watched the variable poty-eligible. Also change poty-vote-add from Glas to Daj glas, please. Thank you very much.--Ma▀▄Ga 06:31, 31 January 2015 (UTC)

Authority control

Hi Steinsplitter, don't remember if I already asked you that, but could we consider integrating {{Authority control}} with the values included in 'Data? -- SERGIO ^{(aka the Blackcat)} 10:40, 30 January 2015 (UTC)

Ciao Sergio, Unfortunately i am not familiar with WikiData, but you can try to ask @Jheald: . --Steinsplitter (talk) 10:43, 30 January 2015 (UTC)

Hi @Blackcat: . I looked at this a bit last year, and you can see some testbeds at d:Template:Creator/wrapper/test. In particular, note that this successfully extracts the Authority Control data for an arbitrary item. (There have been some library changes since I worked on this which had added to the amount of red error text, but the Authority Control bit still works).

However, it can't really be used on Commons yet, because at the moment (so-called Phase 2 deployment) only a Commons gallery page can draw information from the Wikidata item about the subject of the page (see Commons:Structured_data/Short_introduction_to_Wikidata#Wikidata_deployment_to_Wikimedia_wikis). So it is usually not possible to use a template drawing from Wikidata on a general Commons page, for example a file description page. In particular, the Authority Control template is used by the Creator template, which is used on general file pages. If the AC template is rewritten to access Wikidata then (unless one is very careful), this will break all the Creator templates on all of the file pages.

This will be fixed once the "Arbitrary Access" feature is available, allowing Phase 3 to be enabled.

However at that point it is likely that the Authority Control template (and the Creator template) will be comprehensively re-written in Lua from the ground up, rather than the intermediate approach I took, of trying to push Wikidata values through the existing templates.

But even the code I wrote can help a bit, at the moment, for generating Authority Control and/or Creator wikitext, with most of the appropriate fields filled in, that can then be cut-and-pasted here to Commons. (Click to open the show/hide box under the various examples, and feel free to add your own ones in an appropriate sandbox). Jheald (talk) 11:34, 30 January 2015 (UTC)

Regarding translation

Hi Buddy, Thanks for creating necessary pages as per my translation request in Hindi language at Commons:Picture of the Year/2014/Translations/Lua & Commons:Picture of the Year/2014/Translations/Misc. I would like to make few thing clear to you in order to avoid any technical glitches "that i have also translated the numerical values like 1, 2, 3 etc. to Hindi language translations like १, २, ३ etc. so you can check if which one is more accurate English one or Hindi. Also regarding nomenclature of POTY, i have not transliterated(पीओटीवाय), but translated the names(वकिसछ). So we can retain the old nomenclature as per transliteration or new one is ok with policies."( !dea4u  11:35, 30 January 2015 (UTC))

Herzlichen Dank für die schnelle Reaktion. Grüße --h-stt !? 17:47, 2 February 2015 (UTC)

Interessant. Hier schreibst du "Wenn du denkst dass die Dateien OK sind darfst du diese gerne wiederherstellen." Wenn ich dagegen Dateien wiederherstelle, von denen ich denke, dass sie OK sind, löscht du umgehend erneut, forderst mich auf, über COM:UDEL zu gehen und eröffnest blitzschnell ein User problem. Wieso das? --Rosenzweig τ 18:33, 3 February 2015 (UTC)

Ich habe viel AGF... Aber wenn ich sehe das Dateien per gesperrten Benutzer's Anfrage wiederhergestellt werden... Also... Ohne Worte. Ich renne nicht gleich nach AN/U ... aber bei so etwas ist mm nach eine gewisse Linie überschritten. --Steinsplitter (talk) 18:39, 3 February 2015 (UTC)

und... Zukünftig werde ich Messina nur noch sperren. Das ganze andere kostet nur Nerven und regt auf... --Steinsplitter (talk) 18:40, 3 February 2015 (UTC)

Sorry, diese Antwort ist nicht schlüssig und unglaubwürdig. Auch H-stt hat auf Messinas Wunsch hier angefragt, und du hast ihm gesagt, er könne die Dateien gerne wiederherstellen. Da war die "gewisse Linie" anscheinend nicht "überschritten". Wenn ich Dateien unter denselben Umständen wiederherstelle, reagierst du hingegen wie oben beschrieben. Da kommt eindeutig der Verdacht auf, dass deine Handlungsweise nicht sachlich begründet ist, sondern von persönlichen Animositäten diktiert, dass du also mit zweierlei Maß misst. "Double standards" auf Englisch. Das finde ich nicht in Ordnung. --Rosenzweig τ 18:48, 3 February 2015 (UTC)

Also wirklich... Kann dies nur verneinen... So etwas hat mir noch niemand vorgeworfen... Ich tagge diesen Abschnitt als "resolved". Zu viel Drama... --Steinsplitter (talk) 18:59, 3 February 2015 (UTC)

Also nach wie vor keine echte und schlüssige Antwort. So kann man sich sehr billig aus der Affäre ziehen. --Rosenzweig τ 19:03, 3 February 2015 (UTC)

@Rosenzweig: Keine Ahnung was du von mir hören willst... Es gibt hier wichtigeres to do als zu streiten. Vielleicht hätte ich mehr mellow sein sollen und dich melden... Habe den report entfernt (hoffe ist dem Frieden dienlich). --Steinsplitter (talk) 19:16, 3 February 2015 (UTC)

Ich denke das Übersichtlichkeit bei Dateien nie schadet, ist auch wichtig für Nachtnutzer. Kenne Messina nur vom gesocke, habe erst eben etwas vom Schiedsgericht-Zeugs gelesen. --Steinsplitter (talk) 19:19, 3 February 2015 (UTC)

Ich habe doch geschrieben, was ich wissen will: Warum du H-stt bei seiner Anfrage auf Messinas Wunsch schreibst, er könne die fraglichen Messina-Socken-Dateien gerne selbst wiederherstellen, wenn er sie OK finde, bei mir hingegen, wenn ich eben dieses tue (Messina-Socken-Dateien wiederherstellen, die ich ok finde), umgehend eine Datei wieder löscht, von mir forderst, über COM:UDEL zu gehen und dann auf weitere Nachfragen nicht auf der Diskussionsseite antwortest, sondern sofort ein user problem aufmachst. Das sind zwei gänzlich konträre Reaktionen auf zwei Fälle, die nicht zu 100 % identisch sind, aber sehr sehr ähnlich, und ich will wissen, warum du so unterschiedlich reagierst. Eine schlüssige Antwort auf diese sehr konkrete Frage habe ich von dir noch nicht gelesen, nur nichtssagende und ausweichende Reaktionen. Letztlich will ich auch wissen, warum du zumindest bei den von mir wiederhergestellten Dateien unbedingt auf den Weg über COM:UDEL bestehst, obwohl mittlerweile mehrfach dargelegt wurde, dass die Dateien vollkommen ok und von mir (Admin, Lizenzprüfer, trusted user usw. usf.) an der Qelle geprüft sind. --Rosenzweig τ 19:30, 3 February 2015 (UTC)

Weil ich nicht wusste das H-stt von Messina oder wem auch immer gefragt wurde und weil ich ihn öfters auf der Urheberrechtsdisk auf dewiki gesehen habe und seine Kommentare dort immer gut waren (hätte das selbe vermutlich zu dir gesagt...). Dachte das wird schon passen. Aber nach dem ganzen Darama bin ich mir nicht mehr so sicher ob man das so einfach wiederherstellen sollte. Auf COM:UNDEL kann das Diskutiert werden. Hoffe deine Frage beantwortet zu haben. --Steinsplitter (talk) 19:35, 3 February 2015 (UTC)

Und warum hst du bei H-stt nicht gewusst, dass eine Anfrage von Messina dhinterstand, sehr wohl aber bei mir? --Rosenzweig τ 19:49, 3 February 2015 (UTC)

Messinas contrib's, Er hat nichts auf H-stt disk geschrieben, somit auch nicht aufgefallen, - Ich dachte er hat es zufällig mitbekommen und gemerkt das die Uploads tatsächlich PD sind... --Steinsplitter (talk) 19:56, 3 February 2015 (UTC)

Aha. Nein, er hatte das nicht auf die Benutzerdisk H-stt geschrieben, sondern auf die von Matthiasb und von Hans Koberger und womöglich auch noch anderswo, auch in seiner Editliste tauchen in den letzten Tagen die Stichwörter "Bilder", "Commons", "hochladen" bzw. "hochgeladen" und "wiederherstellen" teils mehrfach auf. Und obwohl es sich bei den von H-stt angefragten Bildern eindeutig um Messina-Uploads handelte, willst du nicht gemerkt haben, dass Messina deren Wiederherstellung wünschte? Das ist schon sehr merkwürdig und deutet auf eine ziemlich selektive Wahrnehmung hin. Vielleicht lag's eher daran, dass die ganze Reaktion auf meine Wiederherstellungen ein Schnellschuss war, der ohne großes Nachdenken erfolgte. Ein sachliches Argument gegen die Wiederherstellung der Bilder, die wie dargelegt geprüft und ok sind, habe ich bislang auch noch nicht vernommen. --Rosenzweig τ 20:36, 3 February 2015 (UTC)

Better use a standard Wiki thumbnail size so they don't have to be generated anew if you load the page. Plus you may want to split the page to show older 7 days on a secondary/subpage, trimming the transfer volume per page a bit down. --Denniss (talk) 13:37, 3 February 2015 (UTC)

@Denniss: OK :). Done. Description is here. --Steinsplitter (talk) 14:21, 3 February 2015 (UTC)

Thanks. Further trimming of page size should be possible by omitting the file: prefix, AFAIR not required within gallery tags. Isn't there an extended gallery command where you could globally specify the small text? --Denniss (talk) 14:32, 3 February 2015 (UTC)

In the documenatation is nothing written about a global rule to set the text <small>. It would be possible to use <gallery mode="packed-hover">. On mw:Help:Images are examples. --Steinsplitter (talk) 14:45, 3 February 2015 (UTC)

Looks like part of the problem was my local cache. Still the message left by the bot is contradicting itself. "rotated by 180° ... rotated 0°" Palosirkka (talk) 12:08, 5 February 2015 (UTC)

That is correct. The file was not rotated but only the exif orientation changed. --Steinsplitter (talk) 12:12, 5 February 2015 (UTC)

Hi Steinsplitter, thanks for claiming our GWToolset whitelisting ticket. I wanted to introduce myself and check if there is anything we can do to help the process along.

If that's not enough for you, I don't know what is. J Milburn (talk) 17:55, 15 February 2015 (UTC)

@J Milburn: The full conversation should be archived in the OTRS system. This is now a new ticket number, in the old one it isn't explicitly written. Apart from that, this is not the kind of reply i expect from an OTRS member :(. Have a nice evening --Steinsplitter (talk) 18:04, 15 February 2015 (UTC)

The full conversation is archived in the OTRS system. If you want to link tickets more, be my guest, but I've no grand intention of doing so- it's all out there to find, and the tickets are pretty clear to anyone who reads them with any care. I really don't feel like engaging in pleasantries with you when you've "checked up" on my contributions when you disagree with me (or maybe it was just a coincidence?), left ridiculous challenges on my talk page, and reverted me without comment like I'm a common vandal. Unless I'm mistaken, we've never met before, yet you suddenly seem to be very anti-me. You'll have to excuse me if I don't take kindly to that... J Milburn (talk) 18:08, 15 February 2015 (UTC)

Yes, but i don't plan to do so because it makes a lot of unnecessary edits. And it is difficult to check if someone removes the cat from a file. Regards --Steinsplitter (talk) 19:58, 18 February 2015 (UTC)

Does Commons have an abuse filter about images being reviewed by non image reviewers? 1989 14:00, 23 February 2015 (UTC)

Can admins view hidden abuse filters, or oversighters? 1989 14:04, 23 February 2015 (UTC)

Structured Data on Commons update

Greetings,

After a delay in updates to the Structured data on Commons project, I wanted to catch you up with what has been going on over the past three months. In short: The project is on hold, but that doesn't mean nothing is happening.

The meeting in Berlin in October provided the engineering teams with a lot to start on. Unfortunately the Structured Data on Commons project was put on hold not too long after this meeting. Development of the actual Structured data system for Commons will not begin until more resources can be allocated to it.

The Wikimedia Foundation and Wikimedia Germany have been working to improve the Wikidata query process on the back-end. This is designed to be a production-grade replacement of WikidataQuery integrated with search. The full project is described at Mediawiki.org.This will benefit the structured data project greatly since developing a high-level search for Commons is a desired goal of this project.

The Wikidata development team is working on the arbitrary access feature. Currently it's only possible to access items that are connected to the current page. So for example on Vincent van Gogh you can access the statements on Q5582, but you can't access these statements on Category:Vincent van Gogh or Creator:Vincent van Gogh. With arbitrary access enabled on Commons we no longer have this limitation. This opens up the possibility to use Wikidata data on Creator, Institution, Authority control and other templates instead of duplicating the data (what we do now). This will greatly enhance the usefulness of Wikidata for Commons.

To use the full potential of arbitrary access the Commons community needs to reimplement several templates in LUA. In LUA it's possible to use the local fields and fallback to Wikidata if it's not locally available. Help with this conversion is greatly appreciated. The different tasks are tracked in phabricator, see https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T89594 .

Volunteers are continuing to add data about artworks to Wikidata. Sometimes an institution website is used and sometimes data is being transfered from Commons to Wikidata. Wikidata now has almost 35.000 items about paintings. This is done as part of the WikiProject sum of all paintings. This helps us to learn how to d:Wikidata:WikiProject Visual arts/Item structuremodel and refine metadata about artworks. Experience that will of course be very useful for Commons too.

Additionally, the metadata cleanup drive continues to produce results. The drive, which is intended to identify files missing {{Information}} or the like structured data fields and to add such fields when absent, has reduced the number of files missing information by almost 100,000 on Commons. You can help by looking for files with similarly-formatted description pages, and listing them at Commons:Bots/Work requests so that a bot can add the {{Information}} template on them.

At the Amsterdam Hackathon in November 2014, a couple of different models were developed about how artwork can be viewed on the web using structured data from Wikidata. You can browse two examples here and here. These examples can give you an idea of the kind of data that file pages have the potential to display on-wiki in the future.

The Structured Data project is a long-term one, and the volunteers and staff will continue working together to provide the structure and support in the back-end toward front-end development. There are still many things to do to help advance the project, and I hope to have more news for you in the near future. Contact me any time with questions, comments, concerns.

file rename

Hi Steinspliter,

I seem to disagree with this diff: https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=File:UPPP.png&curid=38626381&diff=151346161&oldid=151346151

According to the guidlines the username UPPP.png is a nothing saying name, therefor it would be ok to move it to a suitable name. But I do agree with the fact that its useless to move a file tagged with speedy. Abigor talk 08:58, 27 February 2015 (UTC)

Hi Abigor, It is criterion #4: Files with copyright issues should NOT be renamed until copyright issues are resolved. There is no reason to rename a file if it is going to be deleted on copyright grounds. - Best --Steinsplitter (talk) 08:59, 27 February 2015 (UTC)

Hi Steinsplitter,

We are a few members of Wikiproject Aviation that have taken control. We are managing this account (I'm just one of them). About the logo, It was changed by user Russavia on his previous account controlled period before February 2nd, when account was suspended. We can revert this, there's not problem at all. Cheers, --Dura-Ace (talk) 12:06, 28 February 2015 (UTC)

@Dura-Ace: If Russavia has not agreed to this use of the twitter account that he legitimately set up for our joint project, then it should be closed. Unless I have some personal reassurance that this is the case, I have no intention of cooperating in its future use or promotion. Please do not post any of my uploaded images on that twitter account, I would consider it ethically an abuse of my good faith work and I will make public comments to that effect on twitter if I see any.

Renaming cancelled stamps

Helloǃ I'm interesting. What is the language policy? I asked to rename the file1 to the name of file2, took from WikiBooks catalogue. --Matsievsky (talk) 21:20, 4 March 2015 (UTC)

Files should NOT be renamed only because the filename is not English and/or is not correctly capitalized (Remember, Commons is a multilingual project, so there's no reason to favor English over other languages), see COM:RENAME. And Commons:Language policy --Steinsplitter (talk) 09:27, 5 March 2015 (UTC)

I read it. I ask what it is related to this case? I rename files not because they have the Russian name. And I rename files not because they have or have no capital letters. I rename files according to the consensus reached with Billinghurst. I rename files for "Harmonize file names of a set of images (so that only one part of all names differs) to ease their usage in templates (e.g. diagram symbols, scans of pages of a book, maps)". --Matsievsky (talk) 14:33, 5 March 2015 (UTC)

Please establish consensus with the community first. RU to EN renaming's are not ok per policy. Best --Steinsplitter (talk) 14:48, 5 March 2015 (UTC)

Please help me to estanlish consensus with the community. I don't know how I am able to do it. --Matsievsky (talk) 16:01, 5 March 2015 (UTC)

@Matsievsky: I would suggest posting a message about it at COM:VP with a proposal for the 'form' of the name that you think is best, and making a (linked from the discussion) page in your user space with a list for a 'mass' rename request instead of sumbitting large numbers of individual files for random renamers to look at. Revent (talk) 06:49, 6 March 2015 (UTC)

@Revent: I know the Wikimedia Commons a little. I think that you want something good. I often should ask for renaming of files. --Matsievsky (talk) 13:14, 6 March 2015 (UTC)

Revent, what I need to do? --Matsievsky (talk) 13:04, 9 March 2015 (UTC)

@Matsievsky: The rules are the same for all users, including you. No need to rename all files to english. --Steinsplitter (talk) 13:22, 9 March 2015 (UTC)

Sorry, but I don't rename all files to english. It seems so to you, it isn't necessary to speak so. I call files with identical images the identical names. And very seldom it can lead to change of language of the name. Please, help to rename these four files. --Matsievsky (talk) 13:31, 9 March 2015 (UTC)

I want to follow rules. The rulesː "Files should NOT be renamed only because the filename is not English". I renamed files NOT ONLY because the filenames is not English. Not English names of files weren't the cause of their renaming. --Matsievsky (talk) 22:31, 9 March 2015 (UTC)

Need Help

Hello, Dear Steinsplitter, You have helped me last year, now I need your help again...

Some of my pictures are constantly modified by a user on bad purpose. He keep changing the source (website) where my picture comes from. (Name:Sisagester, IP1:125.41.79.101. IP2:125.41.136.57) I have reported him on Commons:Administrators' noticeboard/Vandalism, and I saw he was warned on his talkpage (in Chinese). But today, he is still changing the information of pictures I uploaded, the site he wrote has no such sources of my picture, and the site is under copyright protection.

BTW, he also changes other users' pictures. [File:Asfaltinstallatie met paralleltrommel.jpg],[File:Asphaltmischanlage Gesamtansicht.jpg]. And they didn't notice it. I've been warning involved in edit wars, because I undo his acts so many times. But I don't know what to do. Can you help? Now, I found that he also changes the licensing information: https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=File:Lb-asphalt-plant-structure.jpg&action=history you can see it in the history.

Yo soy el creativo del afiche. Yo pagué al artista que diseñó el afiche. Yo tomé la foto del afiche para la red. En ningún momento los exhibidores y distribuidores me presentaron un contrato de venta o exclusividad, nunca firmá nada con ellos a este respecto. ¿cúal fue la razón para sacar el afiche?

Me

I see that you posted and then withdrew this complaint to COM:AN/U about me. For the record I am not on an anti-Israel campaign. As I stated elsewhere I am targeting Israel related files because Category:Israel was on the top of the list at Commons:Categories_requiring_diffusion#Countries with over 1000 files. It is now cleaned up. I also discovered that Geagea was uploading all sorts of rubbish which he/she and others have since deleted. I then noticed the Category:Geography of Israel had over 1000 files in it. Obviously another candidate for a cleanup.

I have discovered that the regular editors and admins here are quite happy keeping all sort of poor quality images (subjective, I know). I guess when doing mass DRs I have to grit my teeth and let the digital detritus go undeleted.

The warning about mass deletions that Yann gave on my user page was not justified. I had given two examples where my mass DRs were 100% successful. Given your comments on the withdrawn AN/U complaint you must have read them yourself but obviously ignored them.

As it is with you I also do not want any dramas. One way of avoid dramas is to NOT make assumptions about other editors. Regards. Alan Liefting (talk) 18:24, 15 March 2015 (UTC)

Can I suggest that you make less confusing and cleared stance at Commons:Deletion requests/Files in Category:Geography of Israel. THanks. Alan Liefting (talk) 18:28, 15 March 2015 (UTC)

@Alan Liefting: Geagea is a long term trusted user, who always clean up his uploads. Mass uploads is not easy. I looked at the two DR's and they are indeed out of scope, but the other one are not. In dubio pro reo - we have enough free disk space on commons (and of course, deleting files don't safe disk space). Not sure if you are familiar with w*pedi0cracy - but there a lot of trolls (@because you link from your userpage to the page, and your comment about commons - i don't think that commons is a mess) - the forum is well known for harassing and intimidating wikimedians. Best --Steinsplitter (talk) 18:31, 15 March 2015 (UTC)

(edit conflict) Given the behaviour that I have seen and experienced from Geagea I am not at all impressed. I suffered from her/his attacks while trying to clean up Category:Israel. I have now managed to acheive it and Geagea has slinked away with her/his tail between her/his legs. And Geagea does not appear to be cleaning up the rubbish upload. And why are they even uploaded in the first place?

Sufficient disc space is no reason to keep digital detritus. The stuff clutters the place up and waters down all of the good stuff.

I am familiar with Wikipediocracy and occasionally post there. I am also the target of derision there. I use it as part of my work to try and improve WP amd Commons. I am not sure if you are accusing me of trolling and if you are (apologies if you are not) all I have to say is that I am here to improve Commons. THat should be obvious from my editing behaviour.

Category:Aircraft

Hi, as someone who often works on aircraft-related stuff on Commons, you might be aware of a sub-cat (Category:Images_of_airplanes_with_bad_file_names) that was added yesterday, which I then relocated under Category:Selected photos of aircraft. That action was reversed by the creator, which I commented on, after which the sub-cat was re-named using unsuitable practices that destroyed the category history.

There's no evidence of edit warring, because I moved the original category to Category:Selected photos of aircraft, then it was deleted and replaced by Category:Images of aircraft with bad file names, and I don't wish to *start* a war by repeating my previous action, merely questioning editing behaviour and lack of response as well as the suitable location in the category schema.PeterWD (talk) 19:11, 16 March 2015 (UTC)

Unprotection request

Griaßdi Steinsplitter, bitte reduziere gelegentlich den Schutzstatus von Stop hand.svg damit anständige Benutzer editieren können.
Ich kann ja verstehen, dass solche Dateien vor uploads geschützt werden; aber auch die Dateibeschreibungsseite komplett zu sperren finde ich übertrieben - solange nicht sinnlose editwars entbrennen. Ich möchte gerne die Kategorisierung richtigstellen und könnte dich bitten, das zu tun; mir erscheint jedoch diese Vorgangsweise einfacher. Falls du Bedenken haben solltest werde ich dann eben doch diesen komplizierteren Weg wählen. sarang♥사랑 08:44, 18 March 2015 (UTC)

Prot. template

Hallo Steinsplitter, weil es beim "üblichen Vorgehen" ewig lange dauert bis irgendeiner irgendwas macht, komme ich damit zu dir.
Seit Wochen hat SiBr4, von mehreren anderen Benutzern kommentiert, eine nun wirklich gute Version von {{Vector version available}} erstellt, und natürlich auf Herz, Nieren und andere Organellen ausgiebigst getestet. Hier wurde wirklich sorgfältig und überlegt gearbeitet. Nun soll das ganze in die Realität entlassen werden und harrt in {{Sandbox/vva}} auf jemanden, der das übertragen darf. Ohne deiner administrellen Entscheidung vorgreifen zu wollwn, kann IMHO die Vorlage ohne weitere Prüfung so übernommen werden! Machst du das bitte? sarang♥사랑 09:40, 18 March 2015 (UTC)

@Sarang: Was ändert sich da genau? --Steinsplitter (talk) 09:42, 18 March 2015 (UTC)

Die bisher oftmaligen ifexist Tests werden nunmehr nur einmal an zentraler Stelle ausgeführt. Es können bis zu drei Dateien angegeben werden, hat sich als erforderlich gezeigt. Optional kann auch nun eine quality und reason angegeben werden, das wird künftig benötigt werden. Bei gleichem Namen muss der filename nicht angegeben werden, wie bei der Zwischenlösung {{NowSVG}}. Der komplexer gewordene Vorlagencode wurde gestrafft und leserlicher gemacht, die Ausgabe wurde verbessert, die Fehlerwartung ermöglicht. Es ist eine beispielhafte Lösung für eine Reihe sehr ähnlicher Vorlagen, die allerdings doch zu verschieden sind um gleich integriert werden zu können. In die Realisierung sind der skill und die Anregungen mehrerer Benutzer eingeflossen, es gibt ausführliche Tests jeder Variante. sarang♥사랑 09:56, 18 March 2015 (UTC)

OK Bitte prüffe ob alles funktioniert. Grüße. --Steinsplitter (talk) 10:01, 18 March 2015 (UTC)

Servus Steinsplitter,

St. Helena

Norden ist unten, daher bitte um 180 Grad drehen

Hallo Steinsplitter, Dein Bot hat mindestens schon zwei mal meinen Rotationsantrag ohne Begründung entfernt. Der Antrag war damit begründet, dass durch eine 180-Grad-Rotation oben zumindest nähe Norden liegen würde. Könntest Du Deinen Bot bitte etwas besser überwachen, damit er keinen Unfug treibt ;-) Grüße,--Ratzer (talk) 10:36, 23 March 2015 (UTC)

@Ratzer: Das bot hat deine Anfrage korrekt erfüllt. Leere deinen Browser cache bitte. --Steinsplitter (talk) 11:27, 23 March 2015 (UTC)

Hallo Steinsplitter, möglicherweise wurde der Auftrag irrtümlich zweimal ausgeführt, und ich habe das erste Mal Cacheleeren vergessen. Auf jeden Fall ist Norden noch oder wieder unten. Bitte (nochmal) um 180 Grad drehen, vielen Dank.--Ratzer (talk) 11:32, 23 March 2015 (UTC)

Du hast das Bot revertiert (den Baustein wieder eingefügt), deshalb hat er erneut gedreht. 180 im Uhrzeigersinn ergibt diese Position. Alles korrekt. --Steinsplitter (talk) 11:37, 23 March 2015 (UTC)

Aktuell sehe ich nach Cacheleering Jamestown unten. Jamestown liegt aber im Norden. Oder mache ich etwas verkehrt? (Vergiss alles, wass ich in der Vergangenheit verkehrt gemacht haben könnte).--Ratzer (talk) 11:46, 23 March 2015 (UTC)

Ich hab jetzt auf die Version nach der ersten Drehung revertiert, um dem Bot den Drehwurm zu ersparen. :)

Wenn ich aber schon hier bin eine kurze Frage: Wäre es möglich, dass der Bot gleich die ImageNotes mitdreht? Ich hab das eben in VisualFileChange gemacht, aber ich vermute, dass das oft vergessen wird und dann Bilder mit völlig falschen Anmerkungen liegen bleiben.

Mein (vermutlich nicht besonders schönes/effizientes aber funktionierendes) regex:

Suche /\{\{ImageNote\|id=([0-9]{1,})\|x=([0-9]{1,})\|y=([0-9]{1,})\|w=([0-9]{1,})\|h=([0-9]{1,})\|dimx=([0-9]{1,})\|dimy=([0-9]{1,})\|style=2\}\}/ig

Ersetze zu {{ImageNote|id=$1|x={{subst:#expr:$6-$2-$4|R}}|y={{subst:#expr:$7-$3-$5|R}}|w=$4|h=$5|dimx=$6|dimy=$7|style=2}}

Gruß — Julian H.^✈ 12:12, 23 March 2015 (UTC)

Edit, Anmerkung: Obiges funktioniert natürlich nur für 180°, aber für +/-90° ist es nicht viel komplizierter. — Julian H.^✈ 12:14, 23 March 2015 (UTC)

Super, danke. — Julian H.^✈ 12:22, 23 March 2015 (UTC)

Das hatte vermutlich auch mich verwirrt, dass die ImageNotes bei der Drehung nicht mitgeführt wurden, sondern dass sich das Image quasi unter ihnen wegdrehte. Jetzt passt aber alles, schönen Dank nochmal. Gruß,--Ratzer (talk) 15:06, 23 March 2015 (UTC)

Why did you revert Template:Category redirect ?

Why did you revert Template:Category redirect ? Once again the pages are not counted in source categories with apostrophes! What did you not understand ??? The correction worked (even, if it was doing more than what was requested, meaningthatit had to be tested), but now it no longer works again !

This is really bad (when recategorizing or renaming categories, this breaks many pages that become orphans, even ifthey correcytly use this redirecting template; now once again, there are many non-empty redirected categories that are not tracked correctly).

Please reapply the fix on the line indicated clearly in the talk page! verdy_p (talk) 12:47, 23 March 2015 (UTC)

Creator templates and Hugh Llewelyn

How does this work for attribution? They're discarding the Flickr link, which is somewhere between "a good idea" and "required" for the CC-by aspect.

Hallo Steinsplitter! WikiLovesEarth Deutschland beginnt erst am 1. Mai, bis dahin ist noch ein wenig Zeit...

Leider war jmd schon voreilig und hat Bilder für WLE 2015 hochgeladen, was so nicht fair gegenüber anderen ist. Ich habe mit Cat-a-lot probiert diese Bilder aus dieser Kategorie rauszunehmen, leider geht dies aber nicht, da die Kategorie offensichtlich in der WLE-Vorlage eingebunden ist.

Hi "Steinsplitter",

eigenartigerweise geraten von mir kürzlich hochgeladene Bildchen "quer" nachdem ich sie vorher im Photoshop 6.0 korrekt "einrichtete".
Ist das ein neues wiki-Problemerl, oder-wie-oder-was?
"Früher" kannte ich DIESES "Problemerl" nämlich nicht...

Das war vermutlich ein Caching Problem. &action=purge nach dem neu-hochladen sollte reichen. lg --Steinsplitter (talk) 05:17, 28 April 2015 (UTC)

@W. Du solltest die Bilder generell nicht mit Photoshop (physisch) drehen, dadurch entstehen qualitative Bildverluste, benutze eher eines dieser Tools siehe Special:MyLanguage/COM:Rotate (dort auch die ganze Problembeschreibung). VG ↔ User: Perhelion (Commons: = crap?)  09:17, 28 April 2015 (UTC)

PS: Allerdings stimmt hier tatsächlich etwas mit der (ursprünglichen) Datei nicht. Ich habe es mal mit IrfanView und mit GIMP geöffnet, ersteres rotiert automatisch nach Exif, allerdings dieses nicht (also selbes Verhalten wie Mediawiki)!? (habe es noch einmal mit anderen Exif verglichen, diese werden gedreht). GIMP verhält sich anscheinend wie erwarten (per Nachfrage). ↔ User: Perhelion (Commons: = crap?)  09:55, 28 April 2015 (UTC)

• PPS: In fact, die Beschreibung COM:Rotate ist sehr irreführend (um nicht zu sagen falsch). Hier mal ein schöner Blogbeitrag dazu.[8] Fakt ist nämlich, dass heutige Browser die Exif-Rotierung unterstützen, aber nur bei native geöffneten Bildern (wie man es hier tut beim anklicken der Bilder), also nicht bei Einbindung in Webseiten (thumbs).
• Des Weiteren ist die dortige Aussage, dass Mediawiki Exif-Rotierung nur teilweise unterstützt Quatsch und vollendete Verwirrung (und vor allem der Vergleich mit SVG).

Also IrfanView, GIMP und Mediawiki verhalten sich doch gleich, das erste Bild war schon physisch richtig ausgerichtet, nur hatte es eine überflüssige (sprich falsche) Exif-Rotierung. ↔ User: Perhelion (Commons: = crap?)  10:28, 28 April 2015 (UTC)

Hmmm:
PS_6.0 betreffend hatte ich bis vor wenigen Jahren kein Problem, und die wikipädie DAMALS auch nicht. Soll heißen dass
(a) das Rotieren von Bildchen verlustfrei möglich war und
(b) die wikimedia die Bildchen GENAU.so erkannte wie sie bei mir am Bildschirm erschienen.
OHNE "extra-'purge'". Wird aber wohl am "Fortschritt" liegen...

"Fortschritt", sagen böhZe MenschInnen, bestände darin Dinge so gut zu machen wie sie früher angeblich bereits waren ;)

@Perhelion: "Dank" für den Beschnitt, wenngleich ich's EIGENTLICH nicht SO wollte -- aber: it's a wiki... [w.] 18:15, 28 April 2015 (UTC)

@W. Aja normaler Weise hätte ich dich vorher gefragt. ^^ Als ich jedoch gesehen habe wie groß das Bild (trotz nochmaliger Verkleinerung mit hochkant) im Artikel war und jemand schon deshalb das 2. Bild aus dem Artikel genommen hat, habe ich es getan. Hat dir etwas besonderes vorgeschwebt, mehr Körper, weniger Hintergrund? (dies ist eigtl. die übliche oder gewünschte Personen-Darstellung). Ja, die ganze Exif-Geschichte stößt bei vielen auf Unverständnis bzw. Unmut (s. dem verlinkten Blog - Die übelsten Funktion die je erdacht »the road to hell is paved with good intentions«) PS: eigtl. habe ich nicht soo viel mit Fotos zu tun, mir ist jedoch aufgefallen dass vor dem Upload das Bild schon in einer Vorschau so gedreht wird wie es in Mediawiki gerendert wird. ↔ User: Perhelion (Commons: = crap?)  18:55, 28 April 2015 (UTC)

Hello , I need a favor. Some years ago, I have uploaded some photos, not taken by me (I'm not the author). It is 4 pictures I referred to as " family photo ". They are photos that I've never been allowed to disclose. You may delete them ? The photos are:

Category:Film of Taiwan

Hi Bot, I´m not really happy with this category move: While it lacks some logic why all 114 country cats under "Film by country" are named "Cinema of X", it seems not to be an improvement if just one of the countries gets a new category name: IMHO, inconsistency of subcats within a central category is worse than inconsistent naming between upper cat and the subcats. So I would have appreciated if you had either changed them all to "Film of X" (probably after a discussion due to the high number of cats affected) or simply left it in the form used for all other countries.

Concerning an undelete request

Greetings Steinsplitter!

I'm hoping you can help me concerning File:BartDeWever.jpg. The photographer is 62 years old, so it took me some explaining and a lot of time to get him to register on Flickr to upload the photograph. I got the impression that this was the easiest way to get the photographs published with a free license, and onto Wikimedia. So I was glad when he got his picture onto Flickr: I felt like I had finally done everything required to upload this photograph. Sadly, it was deleted the next day. Okay, so I requested an Undelete and I believe I explained sufficiently - but you declined it (despite Support from Jim). I was actually confused when I couldn't find the Undelete request, and had to find the archive before finding out that it had been declined.

I hope you understand this feels frustrating and demotivating for me!... I'm really trying to work correctly here. I don't want to annoy the photographer too much because I'm already thankful he's agreed to publish that picture freely. What am I supposed to do next? I've read about OTRS before, but I know it has a huge backlog, and if the photographer is willing to register on Flickr to upload his photograph there, I don't understand why we need to make it more complicated. I do understand COM:PCP, but I'm hoping perhaps I can reduce this "significant doubt" with the photographer reference and perhaps my trusted Wikipedia profile? Thanks for any help.

Very well, I prepared everything to go through the OTRS channel, but I get stuck: I can't reupload the file and add the OTRS template, because the upload fails due to "a file with the same content already having been uploaded but then removed". So I'm in a vicious circle: the photograph can't be undeleted because it's missing COM:CONSENT, but I can't get COM:CONSENT because I can't upload it to Wikimedia with the OTRS template (I need to link to the photo on Wikimedia inside the email). So what should I do? Could you perhaps undelete the file and put the required template on it at the same time? --Sygmoral (talk) 23:50, 5 June 2015 (UTC)

@Sygmora: Give the link to the deleted image (i.e. https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=File:BartDeWever.jpg ) in the OTRS email.. the agent who handles it will request the undeletion per the ticket once it's done. Revent (talk) 23:59, 5 June 2015 (UTC)

I'm confused.

Hello, I saw that you blocked me, and thought I was abusing multiple accounts. And then you unblocked me about five minutes later. I never used the FDR account on wikimedia commons at all. I did use one other account, the PaulBustion88 account, but I retired it with Tiptoety's permission and switched to the PaulBustion87 account, and then requested all my other accounts be blocked so that I did not log onto them on another wiki,forget that I had logged on, and then mistakenly make edits from them and then be accidentally sockpuppeting. I have not sock puppeted on wikimedia commons at all.PaulBustion87 (talk) 10:58, 16 June 2015 (UTC)

Your (self request - notcied after block) self request blocks and x-wiki blocks are highly confused... --Steinsplitter (talk) 11:00, 16 June 2015 (UTC)

I understand that. The reason I requested the blocks is because I have multiple accounts on other wikis, and I sometimes log into different ones depending on the wiki, and I was worried that if I logged into a different account from the one I use here on another wiki, and forgot to log out before coming to this wiki, since I'd be globally logged in I'd be editing from the wrong which would make me guilty of sockpuppetry. That's why I requested my other accounts be blocked. PaulBustion87 (talk) 11:03, 16 June 2015 (UTC)

Bots

You are receiving this message because a technical change may affect a bot, gadget, or user script you have been using. The breaking change involves API calls. This change has been planned for two years. The WMF will start making this change on 30 June 2015. A partial list of affected bots can be seen here: https://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikitech-l/2015-June/081931.html This includes all bots that are using pywikibot compat. Some of these bots have already been fixed. However, if you write user scripts or operate a bot that uses the API, then you should check your code, to make sure that it will not break.

What, exactly, is breaking? The "default continuation mode" for action=query requests to api.php will be changing to be easier for new coders to use correctly. To find out whether your script or bot may be affected, then search the source code (including any frameworks or libraries) for the string "query-continue". If that is not present, then the script or bot is not affected. In a few cases, the code will be present but not used. In that case, the script or bot will continue working.

This change will be part of 1.26wmf12. It will be deployed to test wikis (including mediawiki.org) on 30 June, to non-Wikipedias (such as Wiktionary) on 1 July, and to all Wikipedias on 2 July 2015.

If your bot or script is receiving the warning about this upcoming change (as seen at https://www.mediawiki.org/w/api.php?action=query&list=allpages ), it's time to fix your code!

• The simple solution is to simply include the "rawcontinue" parameter with your request to continue receiving the raw continuation data (example <https://www.mediawiki.org/w/api.php?action=query&list=allpages&rawcontinue=1>). No other code changes should be necessary.
• Or you could update your code to use the simplified continuation documented at https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API:Query#Continuing_queries (example <https://www.mediawiki.org/w/api.php?action=query&list=allpages&continue=>), which is much easier for clients to implement correctly.

Either of the above solutions may be tested immediately, you'll know it works because you stop seeing the warning.

Do you need help with your own bot or script? Ask questions in e-mail on the mediawiki-api or wikitech-l mailing lists. Volunteers at m:Tech or w:en:WP:Village pump (technical) or w:en:Wikipedia:Bot owners' noticeboard may also be able to help you.

Are you using someone else's gadgets or user scripts? Most scripts are not affected. To find out if a script you use needs to be updated, then post a note at the discussion page for the gadget or the talk page of the user who originally made the script.

Photos-by-day bot creation

Thanks for the help! Pardon me if you've thought more of this after your last comment at COM:BOTR, but would you mind creating them some hours before the UTC day begins? I understand the idea of categorising everything by UTC date, but that's not at all practical in real terms for those of us who are several hours off. In particular, if I take a photo four minutes from now, it will properly be tagged with {{Taken on|2015-06-21}} because it will have been taken at 10PM on 21 June 2015, even though by UTC it will be a 22 June creation: I don't see how we can reconcile these. Finally, it won't be helpful to reusers: for example, since sunset in Valdosta, Georgia is well after midnight UTC in early July, all the pictures in Category:4th of July fireworks in Valdosta, Georgia 2014 will have been taken on 2014-07-05 UTC, as will virtually all other fireworks photos on the US holiday, but anyone looking for images will be baffled if we put all of them in 2014-07-05.

Das Speichern der Übersetzung ist fehlgeschlagen: Unknown error: "tpt-unknown-page"

Moin, kennst du die Ursache für diese Fehlermeldung? Ich versuche, eine Hilfeseite zu korrigieren, bei der die Übersetzungssyntax falsch gesetzt worden war. Nach einem workaround kann ich die bereits übersetzten Seiten nun nicht mehr mit der Originalseite verbinden. Kannst du aushelfen? Grüße, XenonX3 (talk) 17:52, 27 June 2015 (UTC)

@XenonX3: Man darf die niemals per Hand verändern. --Steinsplitter (talk) 17:55, 27 June 2015 (UTC)

Stimmt :/, Ligt vieleicht daran dass die Seite beim ersten mal nicht korrekt "getaggt" wurde. Lg --Steinsplitter (talk) 18:06, 27 June 2015 (UTC)

Kannst du eventuell die folgenden übersetzten Seiten löschen, damit ich sie nochmal neu anlegen kann? Eventuell lässt sich der Speicherfehler damit umgehen:

• Translations:Commons:Maximum file size/1/de
• Translations:Commons:Maximum file size/2/de
• Translations:Commons:Maximum file size/3/de
• Translations:Commons:Maximum file size/4/de

Ok. --Steinsplitter (talk) 18:12, 27 June 2015 (UTC)

Danke! Ich habe die Lösung gefunden: Man muss die zu übersetzende Seite einmal aus Special:AggregateGroups entfernen und dann wieder dort hinzufügen. Dadurch wird der aktuelle Übersetzungsstatus auf den tatsächlichen Stand zurückgesetzt (in diesem Fall war die Übersetzung für Deutsch angeblich zu 100% abgeschlossen, was das Speichern wohl verhindert hat).

dateien mergen

hallo steinsplitter @Wieralee: hat mir geraten dich zu kontaktieren, damit doppelte dateien so gemerged werden koennen, damit die versionsgeschichte weiterexistiert: (c.f. https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk%3AWieralee&type=revision&diff=165674126&oldid=165670281 ) Zum hintergrund die dateien sind durch einen remotekurs mit schuelern entstanden, die alle keine erfahrung mit wikipedia / commons und mediawiki hatten. Daher gab es diverse doppelungen von dateien und namenskonflikte. ich hoffe du kannst mir hier weiterhelfen. --Renepick (talk) 22:57, 12 July 2015 (UTC)

Welche Dateien genau müssen gemerged werden? --Steinsplitter (talk) 12:46, 13 July 2015 (UTC)

ich zitiere von Wieralee (wobei in einem fall eine zu mergende datei mittlerweile geloescht wurde):

@Wieralee:  I am still a litte confused about merging two files together to one. As you saw I requested a renaming for that file (which you have accepted) still I would love to see File:HTTP_Poster_Maja_DSA.png as an older revision of File:HyperTextTransferProtocol.svg is this possible. just suggesting to rename File:HTTP_Poster_Maja_DSA.png does not work since the user interface tells me a file already exists. I have a similar case with File:Domain_Name_System.svg and File:DNS.svg as well as with File:Https_und_Zertifikate_DSA_Referat_fertig.png and File:Https_und_Zertifikate_DSA_Plakat.png. finally there are also File:VortragDSADasEthernet-von-Jonashle-Version2.svg and File:VortragDSADasEthernet-von-Jonashle.svg which should be merged into one file

Wiki Loves Earth 2015 - die Organisatoren sagen Danke

Hallo Steinsplitter,

am 31. Mai 2015 endete der Fotowettbewerb Wiki Loves Earth, an dem Du mit Deinen Bildern teilgenommen hast. Dafür möchten wir Dir herzlich danken.

Dieses Jahr haben sich 26 Länder am Wettbewerb beteiligt, insgesamt wurden dabei 108.444 Bilder hochgeladen. Aus Deutschland kamen 14.115 Fotos, was einem Anteil von 13 % entspricht. Sehr erfreulich ist die hohe Zahl von 1000 Teilnehmern allein beim deutschen Wettbewerb. Einen Überblick findest du auf unserer Ergebnisseite.

Die deutsche Jury hat Ende Juni auf einer Sitzung in Fulda die Top100 und die Preisträger ausgewählt. Eine Entscheidung der internationalen Jury wird noch im Juli erwartet.

Ein anderer Fotowettbewerb steht bereits vor der Tür. Im September findet zum fünften Mal der Wettbewerb Wiki Loves Monuments statt, bei dem Kultur- und Baudenkmäler bebildert werden sollen. Mit dem Fotografieren dafür kann jetzt schon begonnen werden. Vielleicht möchtest Du Dich sogar an der Organisation dieses Wettbewerbs oder von Wiki Loves Earth 2016 beteiligen?

Wir würden uns über weitere Beiträge von Dir freuen.

Viel Spaß dabei wünscht das Orga-Team.

Your blocks

Please explain your recent range-blocks. I seriously doubt that these IP-ranges are open proxies. /St1995 17:11, 16 July 2015 (UTC)

@Stas1995: Open proxys ranges (some ip's are leaky webhosts). You can portscan or search for x-wiki blocks with salktoy. This are anon-only blocks, so you shouldn't be affected. Someone complained? You affected (this shouldn't be happen, this rangeblocks are anon only)? --Steinsplitter (talk) 17:18, 16 July 2015 (UTC)

No, I wasn't affected. But if you find an open proxy you may block single IP, not a range, because another (anon) users may be affected (for example, 190.204.0.0/16 - common CANTV IP range, not hosting, 178.209.32.0/19 - may be private VPN(s), because I didn't find any vandalism or spam). Agree with 45.55.0.0/16' block - it is a Digital Ocean hosting. /St1995 18:00, 16 July 2015 (UTC)

@Stas1995: I see a lot of proxy activity in that range. See also Commons:Open proxy detection. You can request unblock on COM:AN/B if you still believe that this ip are not open proxy's. --Steinsplitter (talk) 18:18, 16 July 2015 (UTC)

Userpage

Hallo Steinsplitter, ich habe schon daran gedacht, für die einzelnen Themen, die auf der Userseite aufgeführt sind, getrennte Unterseiten anzulegen und die dann auf die Userseite zu verlinken. Bloß: Wie legt man eine solche Unterseite an? Ich habe das noch nie gemacht ([12] wurde von jemand anders angelegt und ich weiß nicht genau, wie er das gemacht hat) und auch noch keine Anleitung gefunden, vielleicht kannst Du mir einen Tipp geben. Oder kann ich einfach auf der Userseite User:Llez/Name Unterseite schreiben und dann eine neue Seite aufmachen, wie bei anderen Kategorien auch? Den Link zur Userseite würde ich dann gerne über ein Bild als Button machen, auch da weiß ich nicht, wie das geht. Du kannst mir gerne auch per Mail schreiben, wenn es für die Diskussionsseite zu ausführlich wird (vielleicht auch Vorlagen, die ich nur kopieren brauche). Viele Grüße --Llez (talk) 15:28, 17 July 2015 (UTC)

Einfach auf eine /unterseite gehen und auf "Edit" klicken, editieren und speichern. Kannst auch ganz nromal dann drauf verlinken - eine unterseite kann die selben funtionen wie die nutzerseite selbst. Bild im Knopf wird schwierig, aber du kannst ein Bild anhlickbar machen mit |link=. :-) --Steinsplitter (talk) 15:38, 17 July 2015 (UTC)

Can you rename first file to other name file:The Soviet Union 1969 CPA 3762 sheet of 1 (Mendeleev and Periodic Law) cancelled large resolution croped top-right.jpg corresponding to second file? --Matsievsky (talk) 10:43, 25 July 2015 (UTC)

It is not just a stamp. I don't rename this file, you can ask someone else. Why it was necessary to rename the last file three times? --Steinsplitter (talk) 10:49, 25 July 2015 (UTC)

I rename files no more than two times. Because at the first renaming it is rare, but there are technical slips, my mistakes and other reasons.

But this case special. The second time the file was renamed by Green Giant, but under the influence of your first rename request declined Green Giant returned a name back. Therefore I decided to try to rename the file one more time.

How to me to rename this file into the name stated above? --Matsievsky (talk) 20:16, 25 July 2015 (UTC)

Of course, it isn't a stamp. It is croped of stamp. But this croped and the stamp are one series. --Matsievsky (talk) 21:00, 25 July 2015 (UTC)

"you can ask someone else". How I will ask when you don't allow to rename? --Matsievsky (talk) 09:17, 28 July 2015 (UTC)

Hi! I've seen CommonsDelinker misbehave on a couple of occasions lately. It's been removing not only transcluded files, but also file links and even plain text filenames without any markup, making Commons:Undeletion requests/Current requests quite hard to understand.

SteinsplitterBot error

Please see Category:Photographs taken on 2015-08-04 and Category:Photographs taken on 2015-08-05. The bot created them with slightly wrong code: 05 has the coding {{Photographs taken on navbox|2015|08|4}} (which should be on 04), and 04 has the coding {{Photographs taken on navbox|2015|08|3}}. The two previous days were created by a human, so they don't have this problem.

AN/U closure

I think it was remiss of you to close the thread Commons:Administrators' noticeboard/User problems#De-admin discussion of user Odder after only 24 hours. The intent of the initial post was to gauge the attitude of the community about odders' rights, with a number of the respondent saying they would like them removed, or at the very least were unhappy with odders' ongoing behaviour. Although the dispute with Yann may be resolved, I do not feel the broader concerns raised were addressed at all. To be frank, I'd like to see a vote on removal of rights move forward, the last one 32%, but he has wheelwarred the WMF and admins twice, berated a steward for carrying out their duty, and performed dubious premature deletions on behalf of a banned user since that vote was carried out. Although I'm not sure if there is enough support for such action, I don't think 24 hours in enough time to establish that there isn't enough support. ColonialGrid (talk) 13:19, 5 August 2015 (UTC)

First of all: Hi! :-). The odder vs yann case is closed. If you like to discuss the wheel wares in the last itself please file a new complain. --Steinsplitter (talk) 13:21, 5 August 2015 (UTC)

• Hi again, sorry, but the original post by Natuur12 was about the wheelwarring, with the final line being "With this discussion I want to estimate if there is enough support for a de-admin or any other sanction against Odder." I think it was wrong to close that without dealing with the crux of the issue, which was odders' broader behaviour, not simply their latest dispute with Yann. ColonialGrid (talk) 13:26, 5 August 2015 (UTC)

If Natuur12 like i revert my closure. If he don't i will leave it as is. Feel free to create a new section about odder only. --Steinsplitter (talk) 13:29, 5 August 2015 (UTC)

• I don't see why I should have to start a new one when one was already open, but, I shall leave it up to @Natuur12: to decide how to proceed. Although, if you are happy for them to revert your close, I think it would be a wise action. ColonialGrid (talk) 13:31, 5 August 2015 (UTC)

@ColonialGrid: If you really think that it is necessary, then go ahead and revert my closure. I have no problem with re-opening. But i won't do it myself, wasted enough time for this an/u case yet. --Steinsplitter (talk) 13:37, 5 August 2015 (UTC)

• I would rather not, I would find it bad form to revert an admin's actions without at least some consensus, and my lone displeasure is hardly consensus. I'm sorry if I come off too blunt, but this situation must end soon; we can't have a 'crat on a crusade against the WMF in 'our name' who is enabling the actions of a banned user. It's causing huge issues and harm to the community, and if every discussion gets closed quickly or with no action the situation will continue indefinitely (and time will continue to be wasted on ever more AN/U cases). ColonialGrid (talk) 13:44, 5 August 2015 (UTC)

If i say you can revert my edit, then you can - even without a consensus :-). It is a wiki. But WMF if is a difficult topic, they are doing a lot of good work, but sometimes some actions are a controversial. --Steinsplitter (talk) 13:48, 5 August 2015 (UTC)

• Thank you again, but I'd still rather not; if I can't convince anyone (yourself included) it'd just be a wild goose chase and more of peoples time wasted anyway. I probably more just wanted a record of my dissatisfaction, and as Natuur12 brought it up, I'd rather at least have their input. Yes, I know the WMF issue is all rather chequered, but, it is the reality of the situation and we must live with it as best and as peacefully as we can.

"Possible copyvio"

Hi. I'm trying to figure out the logic behind you categorizing all the pictures by a new user as "possible copyvios". I can see no evidence of actual copyvios, at least not anything indicable by common sense or the description you've given on your list of "copyvios" ("Uploaded by user not in local usergroups, low edit count and matching exif blacklist. Exif blacklist: Photos containing "photoshop", "all rights reserved", ..."). The only weak hypothesis I could concoct is that you blacklisted those pictures because EXIF fields for "Author" and "Copyright holder" (which should actually be "Camera owner", as one gains copyright by aiming the camera and clicking the button, not by passively owning the camera) are slightly mismatched - yes, poor girl uses her father's camera, and that has nothing whatsoever to do with copyright. It's either that mismatch or you just have some weird idea that every new user should be greeted by stamping "possible copyvio" over everything they create, perhaps in hope they will be frightened enough to leave and never come back. I'm glad there were no such greetings when I joined Wikipedia in 2004. Anyway, any explanations? --Oop (talk) 14:42, 5 August 2015 (UTC)

@Oop: Hi, The file matched the filer yes, of course the fill will not be deleted. If no action is taken, the file will be removed from the copyvio list in two weeks. But a lot of files matching this filter (well, it is not a filter - it is deleting/blocking nothing) are indeed copyvios. --Steinsplitter (talk) 14:54, 5 August 2015 (UTC)

Perhaps it might be worthwile to think about refining those "filters which are not really filters", and maybe also about the exact phrasing of the notes you leave on the file pages. The current version might not be the best approach to new users if we want to keep them. --Oop (talk) 16:16, 5 August 2015 (UTC)

You did the redirection Category:Melecolia I by Albrcht Dürer. I'd found the typo and I did a redirection Category:Melecolia I by Albrecht Dürer. But now I'm hesitating... Shouldn't it be Category:Melencolia I by Albrecht Dürer? And maybe Melancholy I by Albrecht Dürer? Finally the category names should be in English... Wieralee (talk) 15:25, 9 August 2015 (UTC)

If I may jump in here, Melencolia I seems to be the name of the piece and this appears to be a word that doesn't exist in any language (it's certainly neither German nor English nor Latin, and Google shows only this piece), I don't think it should be translated but it should be just Category:Melencolia I by Albrecht Dürer.

Botfrage

Hi, Steinsplitter. Ich habe folgende Situation. Es gibt eine Kategorie mit >200 Dateien. Alle diese Dateien sind nicht nur in dieser einen Kategorie einsortiert, sondern zusätzlich in mehreren weiteren, wo sie aber sinnvollerweise nicht sein sollten. Und es ist von Datei zu Datei unterschiedlich, welche Kategorien das sind. Es müssten also aus diesen Dateien alle überflüssigen Kategorien entfernt und nur die eine, die allen gemeinsam ist, beibehalten werden. Das lässt sich leider nicht mit den üblichen Tools bewältigen. Frage: kann das ein Bot machen, z.B. deiner? MfG --A.Savin 13:42, 21 August 2015 (UTC)

Hi, Kann man mit awb machen. Wenn du mir sagt welche cat enfernt werden soll kann ich das auch für dich machen. lg --Steinsplitter (talk) 13:47, 21 August 2015 (UTC)

Es geht um Category:Erik Pevernagie. Die Dateien dort sind weit überkategorisiert. Es müssten aus ihnen alle Kategorien außer Category:Erik Pevernagie entfernt werden. Einige wenige Dateien (Bsp. diese) hatte ich allerdings bereits von Hand gereinigt, evtl. könnten Kategorien vom Typ "irgendwas in art" drin gelassen werden, aber ansonsten ist alles Schrott und kann weg. Dankeschön --A.Savin 13:57, 21 August 2015 (UTC)

Alle cats entfernen und eine behalten geht micht AWB nicht, und ich habe auch leider kein skript für :-(. --Steinsplitter (talk) 13:59, 21 August 2015 (UTC)

Wäre es denn vllt. möglich, im ersten Schritt wirklich alle Kategorien aus den Dateien zu entfernen, um dann im zweiten Schritt diese eine wieder einzufügen (letzteres ginge auch mit VisualFileChange über Special:ListFiles/Onlysilence)? --A.Savin 14:07, 21 August 2015 (UTC)

Ich glaube bei 200 dateien ist man am schnellsten per hand. Bis man den regex getestet hat etc. brauch schon ne weile. --Steinsplitter (talk) 14:25, 21 August 2015 (UTC)

OK, schade. Danke. MfG --A.Savin 14:30, 21 August 2015 (UTC)

Du könntest VisualFileChange.js mit /((\[\[Category:Erik Pevernagie\]\])|\[\[Category:.*\]\])/g ersetzt durch $2 als regex auf die Kategorie anwenden. — Julian H.^✈ 15:32, 21 August 2015 (UTC)

Hi @Julian H.^✈ : Danke, aber das muss mir erklärt werden wie genau das geht. Ich weiß nämlich nur, wie man Wörter, Ausdrücke bzw. Kategorien dort ersetzt. MfG --A.Savin 20:33, 21 August 2015 (UTC)

@A.Savin: Im selben Bereich, in dem man gewöhnlich Wörter ersetzen kann (custom replace) gibt es die Option, (Javascript-)Regex zu verwenden. Man muss dafür nur in der jeweiligen Anweisung auf den /R/-Button klicken und den entsprechenden Code eintragen. Das erlaubt etwas kompliziertere Anweisungen: Wenn man nicht am Syntax verzweifelt und vor lauter Klammern und Sonderzeichen den Überblick verliert kann man damit fast alles suchen, ersetzen und verschieben, was man sich vorstellen kann. /((\[\[Category:Erik Pevernagie\]\])|\[\[Category:.*\]\])/g sucht im konkreten Fall nach allen Vorkommnissen von entweder [[Category:Erik Pevernagie]] oder [[Category:*]] - im ersten Fall wird das einfach übertragen (als Parameter 2, deshalb ersetzen durch $2), im zweiten Fall wird es durch nichts ersetzt (also gelöscht). Ich hoffe das hilft dir weiter. — Julian H.^✈ 22:41, 21 August 2015 (UTC)

Hi Julian H.^✈

Jedenfalls habe ich nun versucht, gemäß deiner Anweisung, folgendes: Im Custom replace 1) die erste Datei aus der Liste markiert, 2) unter "Flags" auf das /R/ gedrückt, 3) im Feld "Pattern to match" /((\[\[Category:Erik Pevernagie\]\])|\[\[Category:.*\]\])/g eingetragen, 4) im Feld "Text to insert instead" $2 eingetragen 5) auf Execute gedrückt. Es wurde keine Änderung vorgenommen. Versuchst du's mal selber? :)) MfG --A.Savin 11:42, 22 August 2015 (UTC)

@A.Savin: Hm, bei mir sieht das Ergebnis so aus: diff. In der Vorschau ("Examine scheduled changes") kann man auch prüfen, ob es funktinoieren wird. Dein Vorgehen klingt eigentlich richtig. — Julian H.^✈ 12:46, 22 August 2015 (UTC)

Ich habe das "allow usage of $1" ausgewählt, dasd hat geholfen. Besten Dank Julian, MfG --A.Savin 13:13, 22 August 2015 (UTC)

Deleting MOU from Ghana Museums & Monuments Board

Hi Steinsplitter, I wish to clarify that the document was worked on by me (written) and signed by the representative of the institution. Also they are aware that the hard copy that they signed was going to be scanned and uploaded to commons for the purposes of the GLAM Ghana grant we were writing Flixtey (talk) 08:19, 8 September 2015 (UTC)

Request: edit to locked page

Hello Steinsplitter,

I would like to fix the dead links at Commons:Mobile_app/Download, but you locked that page in January so I can't edit it myself.

The Commons mobile app is now community-maintained, and the official Wikimedia app has been removed from the app stores. Would you mind changing the links? The app is now at:

• iTunes: https://itunes.apple.com/de/app/commons-reloaded/id962894692?mt=8
• Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=fr.free.nrw.commons
• direct APK download: https://github.com/nicolas-raoul/apps-android-commons/releases

Fixing links on renames

Hey, Steinsplitter! How are you?

With regards to some of your renames, I notice you use local links that work on the many Wikipedias, but they can be broken on non-wikipedia projects.

For instance, those links will point to pages on Wikiversity that will lead to nowhere.

It is easy to fix that. You just need to do the same that was done here by adding that prefix :m:w:

Hi, Commons:Photographs of identifiable people orientiert sich an die "lokale" Rechtsprechung, deshalb scheint dieses BGH Urteil relevant.

False positive

This bot is still sending false positive reports on User talk:Iwelam please address this as soon as possible the individual is known to many contributors in WA and is a member of the Wikimedia Australia, he's a photographer that has been taking photos since the 1960's and is sharing his collection on Wikipedia these continual false positives are disconcerting to him and have the potential to cause us to miss out on photographs spanning the last 50 years especially when other editors take your reports dont contact the user first and nominate all his images for deletion. Gnangarra 08:46, 25 September 2015 (UTC)

@Gnangarra: My bot does not edited the page. Please elaborate. --Steinsplitter (talk) 09:08, 25 September 2015 (UTC)

If you are talking about User:SteinsplitterBot/Possible copyvios (exif scanner) - it is working as excepted. Possible copyvios. --Steinsplitter (talk) 09:21, 25 September 2015 (UTC)

Its not working because it throwing out work that isnt copyright violations and causing problems... Gnangarra 09:55, 25 September 2015 (UTC)

@Gnangarra: It is a exif scanner, it lists "possible" copyvios, it does not send notification to users and it is in my bot's userspace. To be honest. I don't see the problem. Which problems it is causing?.. please be moor specific and please read the description of the tool.

Apart from the above: File:Fremantle Prison inmates and main front Iwel.tif looks at the first look indeed like a copyvio. High quality file uploaded by a new user whit low editcount from external source. --Steinsplitter (talk) 10:00, 25 September 2015 (UTC)

Photos taken before the digital dont have exif data, this is where the majority of this users work comes from, it cause him distress to be accused in such away. The last time another user nominated the image saying saying it cant possibly be the work of any user because we dont have people that old contributing... All I ask is for your bot to exclude his work on the basis that copyright has been confirmed and the user is known to m:Wikimedia Australia and has been verified as contributing such photographs. Gnangarra 10:05, 25 September 2015 (UTC)

@Gnangarra: In general COM:OTRS permission is needed - WMAU is not enough imho. If the file don't have a exif, then the bot is not adding the file to the copyvio-gallery. I ask you again to read the description of the tool. I have decided to take no action at this time. The tool is working fine in my view.

If he is trusted and well known then grant him autopatrolled right - so users don't need to patrol his uploads. --Steinsplitter (talk) 10:13, 25 September 2015 (UTC)

<edit confilct>I dont need OTRS to contribute my own photos nor does any other user, this user is contributing his own photographs the only difference is he's been taking photos longer than exif data existed. So what I'm saying is your bot is returning a false positive, its contributing to distress on a user by biting for no reason. Can you stop the false positives occuring Gnangarra 10:17, 25 September 2015 (UTC)

I have nothing to add here. You as a admin should know how we handle such things. --Steinsplitter (talk) 10:20, 25 September 2015 (UTC)

You as a bot operator should be willing to have false positives identified and address such issues, normally a bot causing issues is blocked until its fixed Gnangarra 10:27, 25 September 2015 (UTC)

I will take a deeper look later and try to add some exceptions and switch off the report completely if needed (no ssh access right now) --Steinsplitter (talk) 10:37, 25 September 2015 (UTC)

(talk page stalker) Unless I'm mistaken, this kind of false positives cannot be prevented without human intelligence. This is why it is a report on a user page rather than simply tagging "no permission". The responsibility of identifying whether the upload is indeed a copyvio or not lies on the DR nominator & commenting users & closing admin. And whitelisting specific users is a hack not a fix. Besides, the malfunctions of bots IMO is has to be violations of policy. In this case, editing bot's own user page, per standard practice, does not violate the bot policy unless it's a violation of other policies. You can't claim that as malfunction, can you? --Zhuyifei1999 (talk) 10:58, 25 September 2015 (UTC)

The bots tasks {{SteinsplitterBot/Tasks}} dont specifically include copyright violations or exif data checks... The page doesnt provide any recognition of false positives nor any instructions should one occur... It also doesnt offer any instructions on what to do should an image appear in the list. I suggest that the page and associated pages be renamed to User:SteinsplitterBot/Exif check and that reference to possible copyright violations be changed to source & licensing needing a human review as well have some instruction to address false positives rather than just continually biting a new contributors. Gnangarra 11:57, 25 September 2015 (UTC)

@Gnangarra: I disabled the task completely. So this should be resolved them. Disclaimer: The bot never notified a user, it was a list on bots userspace. --Steinsplitter (talk) 18:16, 25 September 2015 (UTC)

Direct upload

Hello Steinsplitter, as I have the good fortune to be a reviewer and I understand reviewers can make direct upload from authorized domains, I wonder if it would be possible to authorize the repository of the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston, mfas3.s3.amazonaws.com, without going to the extent of authorizing amazonaws.com, in order to upload images such as this one (there is a lot of them...) ? BTW, where can I finnd a list of these authorized sites ? Cheers, — Racconish^📥 16:16, 17 October 2015 (UTC)

Hi :-)! You can find a list of all white listed domains here, to add a domain a request on phabricator is needed. Best --Steinsplitter (talk) 14:39, 20 October 2015 (UTC)

@Racconish: There is also https://tools.wmflabs.org/url2commons/index.html (all urls allowed). --Steinsplitter (talk) 16:42, 20 October 2015 (UTC)

Templates

Hallo Steinsplitter. Hedwig von Washinghton empfiel mir mich an dich zu wenden. Es geht um Templates. Ich arbeite seit Monate an MetaCats, schaffe Ordnung, ergänze, korrigiere, vervollständige Flat Lists, usw. Nun, in dieser Arbeit bin ich auf welche Templates gestolpert an denen auch gearbeitet werden muss: der einfachste Fall ist Orte wo er einfach fehlt, also da muss man ihn einfach herstellen. Oefters geht es dafür um Templates die nicht recht funktionieren, die defekt sind, also die man korrigieren müsste. Ich habe leider keine Kenntnisse über Templates, wie sie funtionnieren, und was da geändert werden muss damit es dann gut kommt, wenn nur ganz minimal. Könntest du mir da helfen? Wenn ja, dann würde ich dir bescheid sagen wo und wie. Lass mir bitte was wissen. Herzlichen Dank! Und einen schönen Tag. --DenghiùComm (talk) 07:14, 21 October 2015 (UTC)

Hallo, es ist sehr unhöflich, auf fremden Diskussionsseiten mitzulesen und noch unhöflicher, sich einzumischen - aber ich habe gelegentlich das gleiche Problem wie DenghiùComm und stecke die Kategorien dann in Category:Template repair needed. Dort kümmert sich zwar niemand drum, aber zumindest sind sie aufgeräumt:-) --Rudolph Buch (talk) 09:45, 21 October 2015 (UTC)

Hi :-). Wenn du mir nen Link zu dem Templates gibts kann ich mir das mal ansehen. --Steinsplitter (talk) 10:02, 21 October 2015 (UTC)

Ciao Steinsplitter. Bitte entschuldige mich, dass ich dir nur jetzt, mit so grosser Verspätung, Antwort gebe. Aber ich brauchte da einen Moment Zeit und besonders innerliche Ruhe um all dem nachzugehen, wieder ausfindig machen, und dir Bescheid zu geben. Also, da sind wir.

• Der einfachste Fall - wie gesagt - ist wenn der Template gar fählt. Da muss man ihn einfach herstellen, damit dann die subcats automatisch in die relative Flat List landen, und überhaupt untereinander verbunden werden. Category:Decades by month und Category:Establishments in Iran by year sind zwei Fälle.
• Dann gibt es Template die sicher defekt sind, wie z.B. in Category:Months in Tunisia. Wenn du da irgend eine subcat öffnest, dann siehst du sofort dass hier etwas nicht stimmt oder funktionniert wie es sollte.
• Dann gibt es Orte wo sogar zwei verschiedene Templates wirken, wie z. B. in Category:Months in Europe. Ein älterer Template der (offenbar deprecate ist) aber von der Mehrheit der subcats benutzt wird, und ein neuerer der nur von wenigen benutzt ist (siehe z.B. Category:January 1862 in Europe und Category:January 1924 in Europe). Ich schaffte da Ordung, wurde aber dann von Apalsola rollbacked, hatte eine Diskussion mit ihm, schliesslich hat er da etwas gewursteld dass es jetzt gut aussieht, sicher aber nicht korrekt gelöst worden ist. Was ich ihm vorgeschlagen hatte ist, dass der deprecate template gelöscht wird und der gute Template an allen subcats angewand wird. Bis jetzt nicht gemacht.
• Last but not least ein Template der mich fast zur Verzweiflung gebracht hat: die "Category:Continents by year"... Aber ich sehe in diesem Moment dass unterdessen Estormiz den Template korrigiert hat, also die subcats nun an ihrem korrekten Platz sind, und auch meine Schäden wieder gut gemacht worden sind. Muss zwar sagen, dass die meisten Templates by year defekt sind und nicht recht funktionnieren. Solange die years in den Tausigen bleiben, ist (fast immer) alles in Ordnung; aber sobald es auch Jahre gibt die in den Hunderten sind, oder in den Zehnten, nicht die Rede wenn auch noch Jahre before Christ beigefügt werden, dann ist ein totales Chaos in den Jahren Liste (z.B. nach Jahr 1599 kommt Jahr 1, und dann Jahr 16, und dann Jahr 165, und dann Jahr 1600... All dies dann noch vermischt mit Jahren vor Christus. Eine Irre!).
  So, das wären welche Situationen die ich getroffen habe. Ich wäre dir sehr Dankbar wenn du in diesem Bereich irgend etwas verbessern könntest. Falls du keine Zeit (oder auch keine Lust) hättest, wäre ich froh wenn du mir irgend jemanden raten könntest, der solche Templates machen oder korriegieren könnte. Herzlichen Dank im voraus, und liebe Grüsse, --DenghiùComm (talk) 17:21, 27 October 2015 (UTC)

Hi :-), Huch. Gute Fragen... Vielecht sollte man sich an den Templateersteller wenden? Bei sowas blickt man immer schwer durch :/. --Steinsplitter (talk) 17:13, 29 October 2015 (UTC)

Schwierige Situation... Ein Template wurde von Foroa hergestellt; ein anderer von irgend einem User der mir mittgeteilt hat er habe einfach einen ähnlichen Template copiert und an Tunesien angepass. Da wäre ich auch gut in Templates herzustellen...!  :-)) Ich habe das Gefühl, dass vielleicht öfters die bessere Lösung währe einfach den defekten Template zu löschen und einen neuen herzustellen. Aber eben, dies muss man auch können...! Ich schaue weiter wie ich es lösen kann; sonst wende ich mich dann an den Village Pump... Besten Dank nochmals und alles Gute. --DenghiùComm (talk) 21:53, 30 October 2015 (UTC)

Datei umbenennen oder nicht?

Hallo Steinsplitter, da Du neulich meinen Dateiverschieber-Antrag bearbeitet hast, wende ich mich mit meiner Frage an Dich: Ich bin beim Kategorisieren auf eine Reihe Bilder mit Dateinamen wie dem folgenden gestoßen: File:BRAUEREI FASSLA BAMBERG FRANCONIA GERMANY APRIL 2012 (7090257409).jpg. Meiner Meinung nach sind ausschließliche Großbuchstaben im Bildtitel schlecht zu lesen, zumal hier auch das "Ä" der Brauerei "Fässla" nicht erkennbar ist. Ich finde aber keine klare Aussage, ob Dateinamen mit ausschließlicher Großschreibung okay sind oder umbenannt werden sollten. Hast Du einen Hinweis für mich? Grüße, --Tine (talk) 11:56, 21 October 2015 (UTC)

@Tine: Hi, Das ä ist wohl ein typo, daher sollte eine Umbenennung OK sein. Meines Wissen ist eine Umbenennung nicht zulässig (COM:RENAME), wenn diese nur wegen dem Grußbuchstaben vorgenommen wird. lg --Steinsplitter (talk) 11:59, 21 October 2015 (UTC)

Danke für die schnelle Antwort! Ich vermute, dass der Dateiname auf einer Tastatur ohne deutsche Umlaute geschrieben wurde, da der Bildtitel auch sonst englisch ist. Wegen des renaming: Dann belasse ich die ganze Serie so, wie sie ist (auch wenn's mich gruselt...). Grüße, --Tine (talk) 12:03, 21 October 2015 (UTC)

Rotated twice!

The bot rotated several of my recent uploaded images, as requested, but then a little later it rotated again. One example is File:Downtown Waycross Historic District details (24).JPG. Bubba73 (talk) 17:54, 21 October 2015 (UTC)

That is likely because of the category lag :-/. I switched off the rotation for now, when the bugs (on phabricator) are resolved i will start it again. Thanks for bringing this to my attention. --Steinsplitter (talk) 18:10, 21 October 2015 (UTC)

Thank you for doing this - and for the bot. Bubba73 (talk) 19:19, 21 October 2015 (UTC)

Now some of them are showing up in their original unrotated version, e.g. File:Downtown Waycross Historic District details (2).JPG. But you are probably right about a category lag - they were showing up in the category of not having a license, whereas they did. Bubba73 (talk) 19:23, 21 October 2015 (UTC)

You will have to blame me for that. I delete them and than restore the versions not affected by the bot since the bot also ruined the wikisyntax. It is faster to let the bot rotate it again than to fix all the wikisyntax by hand. Natuur12 (talk) 19:31, 21 October 2015 (UTC)

OK, I understand. The bot will get back to it. Thanks. Bubba73 (talk) 20:28, 21 October 2015 (UTC)

have Category:Downtown Waycross Historic District listed, but they do not show up when you go to that category. They also have a hidden category "files with broken file links" - is that a result of something the bot did? Bubba73 (talk) 20:39, 21 October 2015 (UTC)

Clear copyvio?

You closed this deletion discussion with the words "clear copyvio". Why do you think that the photo is in breach of copyright laws? --Distelfinck (talk) 14:40, 31 October 2015 (UTC)

@Distelfinck: It has been copyed from a webpage as own work. COM:L has been violated and the file has been deleted pursuant to COM:CSD#F1. COM:OTRS permission from the right holder is needed to restore the file. Best --Steinsplitter (talk) 14:51, 31 October 2015 (UTC)

Wait, what makes you so sure the file's been stolen from that webpage? In other words, how can you be sure that the person who uploaded it here is NOT the photographer? --Distelfinck (talk) 14:59, 31 October 2015 (UTC)

Abuse filter #69

Steinsplitter, it looks like lately you've done most of the maintenance regarding Abuse filter #69 (the "Adding OTRS permission by non-OTRS member" fitler). I noticed that this (now deleted) edit managed to bypass the filter. It looks like the filter was bypassed due to the use of a redirect (i.e. Template:Permission OTRS) which was not recognized by the filter. I think this can be addressed by either changing the two occurrences of "(?i:PermissionOTRS|" to "(?i:Permission[\s_]?OTRS|" or by updating the ~350 uses of the redirect and deleting the redirect. Along the same lines, "OTRS accreditation" probably should be "OTRS[\s_]accreditation". What do you think? This is first time I've looked at the Abuse filter syntax, so I figured I'd run these changes by someone with more experience than me. —RP88 (talk) 05:03, 7 November 2015 (UTC)

Hi, Thanks for bringing this to my attention. Unfortunately, your suggestion isn't fixing the problem. @Zhuyifei1999: @Rillke: Any idea whats wrong with the regex? I wasn't able to find a solution. Also www.regexr.com shows some errors. Maybe the regex should be rewritten. --Steinsplitter (talk) 09:50, 7 November 2015 (UTC)

Are you sure, I just tried the proposed fix using Special:AbuseFilter/test against a test page User:RP88/test (which I should not have been able to create, since I am not a member of OTRS). Here is the complete rule that seems to work for me:

!("OTRS-member" in global_user_groups)
&!(user_name rlike '^(Wdwdbot|Faebot|JarektBot|SteinsplitterBot)$')
& (action == 'edit' | action == 'upload')
&!(lcase(old_wikitext) rlike '\{\{[\s_]*(?i:Permission[\s_]?OTRS|OTRS|OTRS\/en|Crediti|OTRSPermission|Wikiportrait|Verified account|OTRS accreditation|Разрешение[\s_]+OTRS)(?i:\-ID)?[\s_]*(\}\}|\|)')
& (lcase(new_wikitext) rlike '\{\{[\s_]*(?i:Permission[\s_]?OTRS|OTRS|OTRS\/en|Crediti|OTRSPermission|Wikiportrait|Verified account|OTRS accreditation|Разрешение[\s_]+OTRS)(?i:\-ID)?[\s_]*(\}\}|\|)')

I get a green check when I use the definition above, indicating it matches, while I get a red X, indicated a non-match, for the current definition. —RP88 (talk) 10:09, 7 November 2015 (UTC)

Strange - Regex tool isn't matching the rule (maybe it is currently broken :P). Fixed in Special:AbuseFilter/history/69/diff/prev/1137 and Special:AbuseFilter/history/69/diff/prev/1138. Thanks! --Steinsplitter (talk) 10:15, 7 November 2015 (UTC)

Thanks for fixing this. It looks like www.regexr.com uses JavaScript regex syntax, while Special:AbuseFilter uses Perl Compatible Regular Expressions (PCRE). I don't think Javascript supports applying a case-insensitve modifier to just part of the expression (the (?i:...) stuff). —RP88 (talk) 10:46, 7 November 2015 (UTC)

File:PhilipVofSpainMignard1686.jpg

Hi. Just saw you'd reverted my move request on the above image.

1. Firstly the subject matter is a small boy which in itself is part of a considerably larger painting.
2. Secondly The subject was not born to become King of Spain. That did not happen for several decades after this painting was even created.
3. Even then as King his name would've been Felipe. Not Philip.

Hey! Thanks for that, he was really annoying being unable to listen to any reasonable remark. Actually I've noticed the same as you: Simplegoose was reverting the move request when it was declined. Now, I don't know if something has to be cleaned up: just in one case the request was with a wrong or incorrect new name. I'll check, anyway. --Ruthven (msg) 15:44, 10 November 2015 (UTC)

It's a bit sad. The most thing he has done was not really false. But often, what he has done was not the best possible better alternative. I made some moves, but mostly had to fix it. I think, a indefinite block is too much. For this you need to be a troll or vandal. Simplegoose was not always right, but I can't see him a vandal or troll.

Filemove: answer

Hi. Regarding your question about this file, I explain. Well: an user requested a move (criterion #2) and, IMHO, it matched the criterion: "Japanese 500-yen commemorative coin 1993 Imperial Wedding" is more descriptive and lesser ambiguous than "Japanese commemorative coin". Just to say, a Japanese commemorative coin could refer to any kind of coin (not only yen) for any special event in any time. As for the "St. Mary's Church, -insert location-" (just an example), is better to specify. Sorry if I was wrong but, I repeat, I think that the old title was too generic. Value was not specified and, also adding "yen" the ambiguity would have been great in the same way. Because the tile didn't specify "yen" (created in 1871), it could refer to any Japanese currency (Tokugawa, Bakumatsu, etc). I hope my explanation was clear and I hope not to have created technical problems. Regards. --Dэя-Бøяg 14:25, 14 November 2015 (UTC)

Hallo Steinsplitter, ich finde die von deinem Bot generierte Commons:Categories for discussion/Recent changes ausgesprochen nützlich und mache auch regen Gebrauch davon, vielen Dank dafür! Ich weiß nicht, wie aufwendig eine Änderung wäre, aber noch besser wäre es, wenn Einträge, die schon nach Commons:Categories for discussion/Archive/* transcludiert sind, entweder nicht mehr gelistet oder irgendwie gekennzeichnet (Farbe, durchgestrichen o. ä.) wären, damit man weiß, dass man da nicht mehr rumzufummeln braucht.

Frage zu individuellem Lizenzbaustein

Hi Steinsplitter. Ich habe folgendes Anliegen: Soeben habe ich versucht, mir einen Lizenzbaustein für meine Fotos zu machen, der zwar dem Weiternutzer die gleichen Rechte einräumt wie bisher, aber vom Layout her besser meinen Bedürfnissen entspricht. Der ist hier: User:A.Savin/License-FAL. Problem: Wenn ich ihn (via User:A.Savin/F) in meine Fotos einbinde, erscheint bei den Fotos unten die Kategorie Category:Files with no machine-readable license, wie man etwa an diesem Foto sehen kann. Hast Du also vielleicht eine Idee, wie man den Baustein modifizieren könnte, so dass alles wie bisher aussieht, die Lizenz aber wieder maschinenlesbar wird? MfG --A.Savin 19:19, 30 November 2015 (UTC)

So sollte es funktionieren. Anscheinend wird as nicht in Echtzeit akualisiert. Mal abwarten ob es Funtioniert. --Steinsplitter (talk) 20:01, 30 November 2015 (UTC)

Ich habe gesehen RP88 hat sowas bei anderen Templates behoben. Notfalls müsste man den Frage. Dieses Mediabetrachter Zeugs ist sehr Kompliziert... (das machine-readable Zeugs ist ja ein Teil von). Schönen Abend noch :) --Steinsplitter (talk) 20:08, 30 November 2015 (UTC)

DR daily logs

In the past, your bot created deletion request pages like this (Commons:Deletion requests/2015/11/07). More recent pages, such as Commons:Deletion requests/2015/12/02, were not created by your bot but by the first person to nominate a file for deletion and lack the header at the top. Is there something wrong with your bot?

Also note that the bot hasn't created any monthly page for December (Commons:Deletion requests/2015/12). It created Commons:Deletion requests/2015/11 in October, though. I have now created a page for December. --Stefan2 (talk) 17:20, 2 December 2015 (UTC)

File:Queen Elizabeth Flats - before demolition 1.jpg and File:Queen Elizabeth Flats - before demolition 1.jpg

You closed my undelete request with the reason "otrs team will restore when permission recived", but that clearly isn't true. I forwarded the e-mail from the photographer, where the license is clearly stated, to OTRS on 20th November. The OTRS team has details of the license, but the images haven't been restored. Did you mean to say the images will be restored once the OTRS team have processed the ticket?

The details of the license where included when I uploaded the files, there was no need to delete them. edward (talk) 08:24, 9 December 2015 (UTC)

Creating a new license template

Hi Steinsplitter! I would like to create a clean and pretty license template for the contents from this this website. It's a Brazilian magazine, as you may read here and, at the bottom of their website, it's a CC-BY 3.0. Although I am a long time editor, I was unable to understand properly the structure (or the lack of...) of the dozens of license templates around here. So, can you help me to create it? I uploaded this file to be used on it. Regards, Sturm (talk) 10:13, 9 December 2015 (UTC)

Hi! Are you sure that all pics on this page are cc? If yes, i can crate a template for you :). Best --Steinsplitter (talk) 11:25, 9 December 2015 (UTC)

Well, I do agree with you that may sounds "too good to be true", lol. But, what I can say is that its their long time official web page, it's a well-known magazine here in Brazil and some other users here are already using it, as you may see here. If you wish a second or even a third opinion, be my guest! Its always useful. And here is the English translation of their website; look at the license notice at the bottom. :) Regards, Sturm (talk) 16:14, 9 December 2015 (UTC)

I hesitate because found unfree files as well on that page. Maybe you like to ask at Commons:Village pump/Copyright? For the template. A start would be this - i don't speak br therefore the template should likely be crated by a br speaker. Best :) --Steinsplitter (talk) 16:53, 9 December 2015 (UTC)

• I will post there. Thanks a lot for your attention and for the code! :) Regards, Sturm (talk) 20:27, 9 December 2015 (UTC)
• (talk page stalker) Steinsplitter, I’m sure that most people in BR cannot speak br, either. -- Tuválkin ✉ ✇ 07:30, 10 December 2015 (UTC)

Headers

Not knowing which image prompted this question, I can't give you specifics; you'll have to settle for generalities :-)

What's the point of headers, whether =={{int:filedesc}}== or something else? As I see it, the point is to separate the parts of a page so that it's easier to distinguish one part from another and to figure out what each one is saying or doing. A typical filepage is short enough that it doesn't need headers; the various sections of {{Information}} clearly distinguish {{Own}} from the photographer's name and the description, and as long as you understand the language that your preferences are set to display, you'll easily understand what each part is. When a filepage has just {{Information}} and a separate permissions template, a page having a header just for the permissions template, or having no headers at all, will be just as understandable as one having two headers (and that ignores situations in which the permissions template is included in the infobox), with the difference that the headers make the rendered version of the page larger and the code version of the page harder to understand. It's basically like en:Horace Knight, which is small enough that you can easily get through it all without any headers; if you added ==Career== above Knight, who lived at... and ==Publications== above His work appeared in, you'd make the page more complicated without making it easier for readers to find the information they were seeking. Nyttend (talk) 20:47, 9 December 2015 (UTC)

They are on a lot of files, i am not a fan of removing it. Should be discussed on VP likely :). Best --Steinsplitter (talk) 10:32, 10 December 2015 (UTC)

Moving from en.wiki to Commons

I tried to move this file to Commons with Commons helper (for translating and use on hr.wiki), but it was impossible due to an error. Cause of error was that this file was already deleted with "Exact or scaled-down duplicate" reason. I can't understand what that means, and I'm confused even more with this (possible copyright violation?).

Thanks for quick answer. First of all: I can't find talk page with discussion before deletion. I was wondering: based on what?

Gratuitous renaming

So, when you renamed File:Nellis AFB from Frenchman 2.jpg to File:Nellis AFB from Frenchman Mountain 2006.jpg, did you think to take a look at the gallery it was in? It was from a series of similar photos all taken on the same date and named 1, 2, 3, and 4; and now we have 1, 2006, 3, and 4. So you made things worse by breaking aim #4, harmonization of a group of names, and violated the spirit of #2, which is to turn garbled names into readable ones, not to tinker with carefully-chosen names.
