Thank you for uploading File:TamilWikipedia.png! Did you know that Wikimedia Commons recommends the SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) format for certain types of images? Scalable Vector Graphics are designed to look appropriate at any scale, and SVG images are easier to modify and translate, helping Wikimedia to distribute knowledge to all of the world. A lot of modern programs support SVG export. If you encountered problems or have questions, don't hesitate to ask me, a member of the Graphic Lab, or the Graphics village pump. Uploading images in SVG format isn't mandatory, but it would help. (To avoid any misunderstandings, please don't just put raster images into an SVG container as embedded raster.) Thanks, and happy editing!

POTY 2010 voting

[edit]

Hello, please correct your voting. You can vote "only for one" image! --Alchemist-hp (talk) 23:14, 31 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Oh! sorry, I've not read the instructions before. How can I vote again? Please help me.

--Surya Prakash.S.A. (talk) 04:36, 1 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, it is simple, check you votes, cancel/delete all the others. Here you can see where do you give your votes. Best regards, --Alchemist-hp (talk) 04:41, 1 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
But, how can I cancel/delete my votes? Example: I've voted this image. How can I cancel/delete that? Just removing it from the list ah? --Surya Prakash.S.A. (talk) 04:48, 1 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Use simple the "edit" button, delete your vote (the line with your vote), save the side and READY. Have a nice day, --Alchemist-hp (talk) 04:53, 1 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I've removed the line. see here. But it's still showing the message. "You have already voted this image". Even I've cleared my cache too. Please help me. --Surya Prakash.S.A. (talk) 05:03, 1 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Perfect: you make it right! The POTY-"bot" actualized it later ... Do the same at all the other images ... Only "one" image can have your vote. --Alchemist-hp (talk) 05:07, 1 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you friend. Hereafter I don't forget to read the Terms&conditions. ;) Thank you for your guidelines. --Surya Prakash.S.A. (talk) 05:24, 1 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Still, I'm not getting it. What can I do? --Surya Prakash.S.A. (talk) 06:36, 1 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Please check "all" your votes: Special:Contributions/Surya_Prakash.S.A. and remove the multiple. Or write here where is your candidate. I can help to clear the other votes. --Alchemist-hp (talk) 07:58, 1 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

But it's still showing the message. "You have already voted this image".

That's not a bot, that's a script. It will never disappear. (or you make over 500 contribs :)). -- RE rillke questions? 08:12, 1 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Then how can I vote now? --Surya Prakash.S.A. (talk) 08:15, 1 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Did you remove all your old votings? Yes? Then do it the same way you removed the voting, just add it now and use +1 as edit-summary. Here is a description for manual voting. Read "if you do not have JavaScript activated". -- RE rillke questions? 08:39, 1 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Or just do not remove one (1) vote and remove the "failed". -- RE rillke questions? 08:43, 1 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you. I think it'll work. :) --Surya Prakash.S.A. (talk) 09:53, 1 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Rillke, according to your guidelines, I've added my vote here(121st vote). Please check that vote. Please see my account eligibility here. Mark me as "PASSED" please. --Surya Prakash.S.A. (talk) 10:02, 1 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

File:Fur in weaving

[edit]

File:Fur in weaving.JPG

Can you say me what it is? How does it work? I know weaven furs, but I never heard or seen before this tool (I made and write about furs). Thank you --Kürschner (talk) 12:21, 16 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Oh! I don't know the original name of this product. My father is a weaver. He is uneducated. Many parts of Loom are in English. My father knows the English names used in Tamil Nadu. Though, many names are incorrect, they become a common words among weavers. He told me "this is fur" (or something pronounced as /φαr/). I am also not familiar with that terms. I googled. But, I didn't get anything.
It's used inside the weaving shuttles. That's all I know. This is not the fur you're thinking. :) Thank you for your notice Kürschner. Please see my recent uploads which are many based on Weaving. --SuryaPrakash Talk... 12:33, 16 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Oh, what a pity. I hoped to get some information about the woven furs, which come since some years from China, it could be possible, also from India. Thank you very much, my specialty is only fur, skin with hair. Greetings from Germany from a Kürschner (furrier). --Kürschner (talk) 12:46, 16 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Your uploads : Categorisation

[edit]

Hi, please use useful categories and don't over-categorize your images, i.e. please do not categorize your uploads (an example of your recent activity):

Category:Chennai

You'll help to save time and capacity on commons by categorizing:

Category:Chennai Metro

Please use as far as possible the category of the regarding city/town/village or district (if there's no category) etc., or, a localized better 'fitting' i.e. the 'most fitting"' category(ies). Do not add - in addition - the categories of the "parent category", among them cities, states and countries etc.

For further information on categories please read Commons:Categories referring to an accurate categorisation, simplifying your further uploads and categorisation in general. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the commons:help desk.

Thank you for your assistance, Roland Roland 19:05, 6 January 2012 (UTC)

Valued Image Promotion

[edit]
Your nomination has been reviewed and promoted
Congratulations! The image you nominated was reviewed and has now been promoted as a valued image. It is considered to be the most valued image on Commons within the scope:
Chrysocoris stollii(Lychee shield bugs), mating..
If you would like to nominate another image, please do so at Valued images candidates.
Thank you! :) -- SuryaPrakash  Talk... 09:04, 18 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hi

[edit]

Hi Surya:

I just noticed your nomination at COM:FPC. It is interesting but a minimum of 2MP is a must in QI and FP. Further it is advised to nominate in QI prior to FP so that we can correct any small mistakes there. Welcome and a big hello from Kerala. Regards, Jee. Jkadavoor (talk) 08:27, 18 June 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for the great advice Jkadavoor. I will withdraw my nomination. :) Please feel free to post any suggestions in my talk pages regarding my actions. :) -- SuryaPrakash  Talk... 09:05, 18 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
It is advised to nominate in QI prior to FP; but not a must. And there are plenty of pictures failed in QI but became an FP. Reviewers in FP expect an experienced nominator; so they are careless on much advice, simply reject sometimes with even harsh comments. But if we nominate in QI first, chances for getting a comment to improve and we can update the image and pass QI as a concessional review. Then we can confidently approach FP. I have plenty of failures before some success. Best wishes, Jee. Jkadavoor (talk) 09:25, 18 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks again Jose :) But, I am confused of the "scope" in Valued Image nomination. Want some guidance in it. (Not want to study the guidance page, it's boring). Could you please help me in it? -- SuryaPrakash  Talk... 10:51, 18 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
For a visually distinct plant or animal species:
If there is a relevant Commons gallery or category, link to it, like Category:Abludomelita obtusata
You may include the English name in () and sex or other properties like mating after a comma(,)
That's all, I think. Jkadavoor (talk) 10:30, 19 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Picture of the Year voting round 1 open

[edit]

Dear Wikimedians,

Wikimedia Commons is happy to announce that the 2012 Picture of the Year competition is now open. We're interested in your opinion as to which images qualify to be the Picture of the Year for 2012. Voting is open to established Wikimedia users who meet the following criteria:

  1. Users must have an account, at any Wikimedia project, which was registered before Tue, 01 Jan 2013 00:00:00 +0000 [UTC].
  2. This user account must have more than 75 edits on any single Wikimedia project before Tue, 01 Jan 2013 00:00:00 +0000 [UTC]. Please check your account eligibility at the POTY 2012 Contest Eligibility tool.
  3. Users must vote with an account meeting the above requirements either on Commons or another SUL-related Wikimedia project (for other Wikimedia projects, the account must be attached to the user's Commons account through SUL).

Hundreds of images that have been rated Featured Pictures by the international Wikimedia Commons community in the past year are all entered in this competition. From professional animal and plant shots to breathtaking panoramas and skylines, restorations of historically relevant images, images portraying the world's best architecture, maps, emblems, diagrams created with the most modern technology, and impressive human portraits, Commons features pictures of all flavors.

For your convenience, we have sorted the images into topic categories. Two rounds of voting will be held: In the first round, you can vote for as many images as you like. The first round category winners and the top ten overall will then make it to the final. In the final round, when a limited number of images are left, you must decide on the one image that you want to become the Picture of the Year.

To see the candidate images just go to the POTY 2012 page on Wikimedia Commons

Wikimedia Commons celebrates our featured images of 2012 with this contest. Your votes decide the Picture of the Year, so remember to vote in the first round by January 30, 2013.

Thanks,
the Wikimedia Commons Picture of the Year committee

Greetings,

Many thanks for participating in the SVG Translation Campaign 2019 in India. It had been quite a successful campaign—194 users from 19 Indic languages took part in the campaign for 38 days, and have created more than 2,500 SVG files, all of them having labels in native Indian languages. You may read the complete report of the campaign at https://w.wiki/3yn.

We would like to thank you again for translating SVG files as a part of this campaign, your contributions have given thousands of people the knowledge that they need the most. Now we would like to have your feedback about the overall campaign, how effective were the training sessions, the resources provided, the support etc.

Please fill the feedback survey at https://forms.gle/4TCicfYzjAGVvKTy6

Your responses are extremely valuable to us, and will be of immense help to understand further training needs or plan future activities in this area. Let us know if you have any questions.

Please note that 4 August 2019 is the last date to complete the survey. KCVelaga (talk · mail) 05:40, 23 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Important message for file movers

[edit]

A community discussion has been closed where the consensus was to grant all file movers the suppressredirect user right. This will allow file movers to not leave behind a redirect when moving files and instead automatically have the original file name deleted. Policy never requires you to suppress the redirect, suppression of redirects is entirely optional.

Possible acceptable uses of this ability:

  • To move recently uploaded files with an obvious error in the file name where that error would not be a reasonable redirect. For example: moving "Sheep in a tree.jpg" to "Squirrel in a tree.jpg" when the image does in fact depict a squirrel.
  • To perform file name swaps.
  • When the original file name contains vandalism. (File renaming criterion #5)

Please note, this ability should be used only in certain circumstances and only if you are absolutely sure that it is not going to break the display of the file on any project. Redirects should never be suppressed if the file is in use on any project. When in doubt, leave a redirect. If you forget to suppress the redirect in case of file name vandalism or you are not fully certain if the original file name is actually vandalism, leave a redirect and tag the redirect for speedy deletion per G2.

The malicious or reckless breaking of file links via the suppressredirect user right is considered an abuse of the file mover right and is grounds for immediate revocation of that right. This message serves as both a notice that you have this right and as an official warning. Questions regarding this right should be directed to administrators. --Majora (talk) 21:36, 7 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
