Autopatrol given

Hello. I just wanted to let you know that I have granted autopatrol rights to your account; the reason for this is that I believe you are sufficiently trustworthy and experienced to have your contributions automatically marked as "reviewed". This has no effect on your editing, it is simply intended to make it easier for users that are monitoring Recent changes or Recent uploads to find unproductive edits amidst the productive ones like yours. In addition, the Flickr upload feature and an increased number of batch-uploads in UploadWizard, uploading of freely licensed MP3 files, overwriting files uploaded by others and an increased limit for page renames per minute are now available to you. Thank you. Abzeronow (talk) 18:07, 30 May 2024 (UTC)

lapwing

Sorry about the lapwing nomination. When Poco had a recent nomination of the same bird I reworked it, but found mine wasn't quite there. I keep a gallery of possible FPs on my userpage; there will be many older photos (~ pre-2020) that I have not reprocessed that I can have a go at if you like one.. Charlesjsharp (talk) 10:21, 4 June 2024 (UTC)

@Charlesjsharp No worries. I'll try to use the photos on your gallery next time (or maybe request you to rework some). I'm not a professional at photography, so it's harder to find these problems and identify them, let alone edit them. Next time, I'll keep this in mind so this problem doesn't happen again. -- Best regards, WildMouse76 (talk) 13:14, 4 June 2024 (UTC)

Category:Diagrams of tropical cyclones

Why did you created this subcategory of Category:Structure of tropical cyclones while the image you transferred there are EXACTLY the structure of tropical cyclone. This is superfluous. Pierre cb (talk) 03:48, 16 June 2024 (UTC)

@Pierre cb I was preparing an image for VIC, but I read the comments. One of the reviewed said diagram is more descriptive than structure. Combined with having to connect the category to the scope, I created the subcategory and moved all relevant images to it. -- Zzzs (talk) 03:53, 16 June 2024 (UTC)

Diagrams describe any graphs related to a subject while "structure" is for diagrams of the inside composition of a phenomena, in this case of a tropical cyclone. So logically, the main category should be "Diagrams of tropical cyclones" with the images you left in structure and the subcategory should be "Structure of tropical cyclones" with all the ones you transferred into diagrams. Pierre cb (talk) 04:10, 16 June 2024 (UTC)

@Pierre cb I won't be able to do that right now as I am getting ready for sleep. If you could do it for me, that would be nice. -- Zzzs (talk) 04:13, 16 June 2024 (UTC)

Being a FP should not disqualify it for QI status. I'm sure there are other reasons that I haven't mentioned, but being an FP does not make this nomination pointless. --WildMouse76 19:46, 9 June 2024 (UTC) So that we know that this image isn't only of the highest quality, but also of the second highest quality?

--QICbot (talk) 05:42, 18 June 2024 (UTC)

Frank Schulenburg and WildMouse76, I just stumbled upon this discussion and thought I could clarify a bit since I've been sorting FPs for a long time now, and this question pops up from time to time. QI and FP have two different criteria. QI is all about technical quality and some composition, no "wow" required. FP is more about "wow" and composition than technical quality. There have been instances where the sheer wow and compo have been so great that voters have ignored the technical side. Therefore it is totally valid to nominate a photo at both, the order in which that happens is irrelevant. (Just imagine trying to get this, this or this through QIC ;) ) --Cart (talk) 20:55, 18 June 2024 (UTC)

•  CommentThe category is bloated. The category must first be divided into two subcategories: Adult and juvenile.--Archaeodontosaurus (talk) 05:14, 17 July 2024 (UTC)

  @Archaeodontosaurus Are you requesting a subcategory for images that feature an adult and juvenile? The scope is already connected to the appropriate category (juvenile). Your wording isn't clear. Zzzs (talk) 05:23, 17 July 2024 (UTC)

review

•  Comment Should we have VIs of pairs of (sexually dimophic) animals. Probably. Charlesjsharp (talk) 08:39, 18 July 2024 (UTC)

Yes. Zzzs (talk) 11:02, 18 July 2024 (UTC)

•  Comment Is there something wrong with this nomination too? Four days and no votes. --Zzzs (talk) 15:02, 22 July 2024 (UTC)
•  Comment I would respect Archaeodontosaurus's views on this. I have no strong views either way. The question must be - is having a pair any more valuable than two images of a male and a female (unless they are feeding, copulating etc.) Charlesjsharp (talk) 18:03, 22 July 2024 (UTC)

  @Charlesjsharp Well, there's a few similar VIs, but with ducks so I'm inclined to say yes. Zzzs (talk) 18:38, 22 July 2024 (UTC)

•  Support This face to face is interesting, there is a courtship display there, with the male courting. The image is beautiful. By the absurd: there is no reason why it should not be acceptable in VI. --Archaeodontosaurus (talk) 05:00, 23 July 2024 (UTC)

Please stop deleting VI and other templates

The assessments template does not have all information of the VI and POTD template. So I have both. On the other hand some parameters at the assessments templates are beta. If they are no more beta and all informations are in the assessments template, I'll remove the VI template (or my bot will do it). --XRay 💬 15:21, 26 July 2024 (UTC)

Please add the babel templates to your user page. So other people will know a little bit of your language skills. --XRay 💬 15:22, 26 July 2024 (UTC)

If you are looking for the difference at the VI template: One link to the criteria goes the the English page, the other to the German page. --XRay 💬 15:29, 26 July 2024 (UTC)

... and the date of nomination is missing at the assessments templates. I'm using some of this informations for statistical reasons. --XRay 💬 15:34, 26 July 2024 (UTC)

I wasn't aware of the issues with VI. I'll leave an edit request on the template's talk page so they can fix it when I have time. As for the POTD, I think that's the only thing in beta, so I'll stop using it. Zzzs (talk) 15:36, 26 July 2024 (UTC)

If there are changes, I add them to my bot and then all my description pages will benefit. I always do these repetitive things via bot. --XRay 💬 16:01, 26 July 2024 (UTC)

I've forgotten: There is a difference in the categorization depending to the nomination date. The VI templates categorizes in a category like Valued images promoted ..., the assessments template does not. --XRay 💬 16:43, 26 July 2024 (UTC)

In this second and final round, you may vote for a maximum of three images. The image with the most votes will become the Picture of the Year 2023.
