Commons:Categories and please avoid "over-categorization"
[edit]Hi, some categories have been tagged as {categorize}, therefore p.e. that edit has been fixed. Please also check Commons:categories and avoid so-called "over-categorization". Best regards, Roland zh (talk) 18:13, 20 June 2014 (UTC)
Comment: There's no need to also add a district's category, so a media (photo etc) already has been categorized by a subcategory (btw: most of them already in 2012) related to that district, therefore these ('many') edits of June 15, 2014, have been undone. Regards, Roland zh (talk) 18:37, 20 June 2014 (UTC)
imho not helpful re-categorizations related to Category:Andhra Pradesh, Category:Telangana, Category:Hyderabad, India etc
[edit]Hi, again, and as imho pointed before. But, honestly: asking an individual Wikimedian to name (exclusively) Category:Train stations in Andhra Pradesh, but minutes ago moving the whole related category tree to "Railway stations", what a glorious mess :-(( Why :-(( Ok, for instance, at EN-WP there are 'Railway stations', but Wikimedia Common's related category tree (for 'train' stations allover the world) is Category:Train stations. No matter whether grammatically correct, or logical, or even user-friendly... To establish a arbitrarily category tree for just one single state of India is not helpful, and imho wasting lots of your's and mine's time. Hence, please avoid such re-categorizations, and honestly, wasting time by asking individual tiny Wikimedians like me, but not discussing in general before acting – not on a personal level, instead, please use categories to be renamed, thanks, Roland zh (talk) 16:04, 29 April 2016 (UTC)
- @Roland zh: Ok I'll follow your statements. Thanks for reply.--Vin09 (talk) 18:45, 29 April 2016 (UTC)
An unfree Flickr license was found on File:Amaravati montage.png
[edit]
Elisfkc (talk) 19:58, 22 June 2016 (UTC)
This would have been allowed, except for the fact that en:File:File:Amaravati buddha.jpg is a copyright violation, because it comes from https://www.flickr.com/photos/byaditya/16473748995. Elisfkc (talk) 19:59, 22 June 2016 (UTC)
- @Elisfkc: It's actually not my work, I've derived from other users. Will it be still considered as my work and any problem for me.Vin09 (talk) 06:11, 23 June 2016 (UTC)
- The issue is the bottom right image is copyrighted. If you replace the bottom right image with a freely licensed image and reupload it, it should be ok. Elisfkc (talk) 16:41, 23 June 2016 (UTC)
Renaming
[edit]Hi :-)
I have declined your three requests: in my opinion the renamings weren't absolutely necessary, I'm sorry. We have a bug on Commons and some files just disappear after renaming, so it is very important to not rename if the name of the file is acceptable (maybe not the best, but quite good)... Our browser is searching both: in the filenames and in descriptions, too -- so sometimes it is better to change the description. Wieralee (talk) 09:51, 31 January 2017 (UTC)
- @Wieralee: Thanks for the info.Vin09 (talk) 09:54, 31 January 2017 (UTC)
Tagging copyvios
[edit]Hi, When tagging copyright violations, please inform the uploader. This is best done using the gagdet. See in your preferences to enable them, tab "Gadget", section "Maintenance tools" : "AjaxQuickDelete" and "Quick delete". These add links in the left column (or right column for Hebrew, Arabic, etc., language interface). Regards, Yann (talk) 11:37, 17 April 2017 (UTC)
- Fine.--Vin09 (talk) 11:43, 17 April 2017 (UTC)
- @Yann: Does it qualify for csd based on copyright violations?--Vin09 (talk) 11:44, 17 April 2017 (UTC)
- Yes, they may if you show some proof. I can't find where they were deleted earlier. Regards, Yann (talk) 11:46, 17 April 2017 (UTC)
- @Yann: Please check here.--Vin09 (talk) 11:50, 17 April 2017 (UTC)
