Rollback[edit]
I have granted rollback rights to your account; the reason for this is that after a review of some of your contributions, I believe I can trust you to use rollback correctly by using it for its intended usage of reverting vandalism, and that you will not abuse it by reverting good-faith edits or to revert-war. For information on rollback, see the Meta page about rollback. If you do not want rollback, just let me know, and I'll remove it. Good luck and thanks. Huib talk 12:48, 16 April 2009 (UTC)
- Thanks. --Aqwis (talk) 12:51, 16 April 2009 (UTC)

Tip: Categorizing images[edit]
Thanks a lot for contributing to the Wikimedia Commons! Here's a tip to make your uploads more useful: Why not add some categories to describe them? This will help more people to find and use them.
Here's how:
1) If you're using the UploadWizard, you can add categories to each file when you describe it. Just click "more options" for the file and add the categories which make sense:
2) You can also pick the file from your list of uploads, edit the file description page, and manually add the category code at the end of the page.
[[Category:Category name]]
For example, if you are uploading a diagram showing the orbits of comets, you add the following code:
[[Category:Astronomical diagrams]][[Category:Comets]]
This will make the diagram show up in the categories "Astronomical diagrams" and "Comets".
When picking categories, try to choose a specific category ("Astronomical diagrams") over a generic one ("Illustrations").
Thanks again for your uploads! More information about categorization can be found in Commons:Categories, and don't hesitate to leave a note on the help desk.BotMultichillT 05:38, 13 July 2009 (UTC)

Norwegian and Nynorsk translations needed[edit]
Hi! I contact you as you speak English, Norwegian and Nynorsk.
Jastrow and I are working on autotranslating {{Meta information museum}}, the meta-template we use for many museums, like {{Information Louvre}}. Could you please help us find Norwegian and Nynorsk translations for every tag name:
* artist/maker * description * dimensions * credit line * accession number * location * source/photographer * references * other versions
"Credit line" is mainly about the mode of acquisition: what collection does it come from? Did it join the collections by gift, purchase, on loan, etc.?
Thanks for any help. Bibi Saint-Pol (sprechen) 16:25, 28 July 2009 (UTC)

RfA?[edit]
Hi Aqwis. The backlogs, particularly at DR and CAT:UNKNOWN, are quite significant as of late, so I think it'll be good to have more active sysops. Would you like to run RfA? –Juliancolton | Talk 05:14, 15 November 2009 (UTC)

Congratulations, Dear Administrator![edit]
Aqwis, congratulations! You now have administrator rights on Commons. Please take a moment to read the Commons:Administrators page and watchlist related pages (in particular Commons:Administrators' noticeboard and its subpages), before launching yourself into page deletions, page protections, account blockings or modifications of protected pages. The majority of the actions of administrators can be reversed by the other admins, except for history merges which must thus be treated with particular care. Have a look at the list of Gadgets (on the bottom there are the ones specifically for admins – however, for example the UserMessages are very helpful too).
Please feel free to join us on IRC: #wikimedia-commons webchat on irc.libera.chat. There is also a channel for Commons admins, which may be useful for more sensitive topics, or coordination among administrators: #wikimedia-commons-admin webchat.
You may find Commons:Guide to adminship to be useful reading. You can find the admin backlog overview at COM:AB.
Please also check or add your entry to the List of administrators and the related lists by language and date it references.
Best wishes. Please take the advice I gave you in my close on board.... and if you need any help, please ask any of your new colleagues. ++Lar: t/c 04:08, 23 November 2009 (UTC)

Bilde Askøy[edit]
Hei,
Fant et bilde på wikipedia av Kleppestø som jeg forstår du har tatt. Vi har laget et planprogram for Kleppestø og har brukt bildet som forside. Det er et dokument som gir noen føringer i forbindelse med oppstart av en områderegulering.
Jeg forstod det sånn på lisensen at det er ok men vi vil gjeren kreditere deg. Så hvis du gir meg navnet ditt skal jeg gjøre mitt for å få det med.
Håper det er ok.
Mvh

I artikkelen om Strandgaten, Bergen har du vedlagt et svært oversiktlig bilde av strandgaten. Jeg har prøvd meg litt på programmet du oppnevner som kilde, men jeg får det ikke til. Hvordan lagde du det? Er det muligheter for litt hjelp?
- OpenStreetMap er en side med fritt lisensierte kart av hele verden. For å lage kartet av Strandgaten tok jeg rett og slett screenshot av kartet, gikk inn i et bilderedigeringsprogram og la på streker. --Aqwis (talk) 22:03, 2 August 2012 (UTC)

Bruk av Nygårdstangen panorama[edit]
Vi er en bedrift i Bergen som skal ha printet folie på glassveggene på møterommene. Tema på bildene er knyttet til navnet på møterommet. For møterommet "Store lungegårdsvann" ble bildet ditt stemt enstemmig frem som det foretrukne. Kan vi bruke det ved å kreditere fotografen ihht til retningenlinjene og er det mulig å få en versjon med høyere oppløsning?
- Hei! Det går selvfølgelig greit at dere bruker bildet. Hvis jeg skal sjekke om jeg har en versjon med høyere oppløsning må jeg imidlertid vite nøyaktig hvilket bilde du tenker på, ettersom jeg har lastet opp flere bilder av Store lungegårdsvann til Wikimedia Commons. --Aqwis (talk) 21:12, 10 June 2015 (UTC)

Copyright status: File:Plomin.jpg[edit]

| This media may be deleted. |
Thanks for uploading File:Plomin.jpg. I notice that the file page either doesn't contain enough information about the license or it contains contradictory information about the license, so the copyright status is unclear.
If you created this file yourself, then you must provide a valid copyright tag. For example, you can tag it with {{self|GFDL|cc-by-sa-all}} to release it under the multi-license GFDL plus Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike All-version license or you can tag it with {{PD-self}} to release it into the public domain. (See Commons:Copyright tags for the full list of license tags that you can use.) If you did not create the file yourself or if it is a derivative of another work that is possibly subject to copyright protection, then you must specify where you found it (e.g. usually a link to the web page where you got it), you must provide proof that it has a license that is acceptable for Commons (e.g. usually a link to the terms of use for content from that page), and you must add an appropriate license tag. If you did not create the file yourself and the specific source and license information is not available on the web, you must obtain permission through the VRT system and follow the procedure described there. Note that any unsourced or improperly licensed files will be deleted one week after they have been marked as lacking proper information, as described in criteria for deletion. If you have uploaded other files, please confirm that you have provided the proper information for those files, too. If you have any questions about licenses please ask at Commons:Village pump/Copyright or see our help pages. Thank you. |

Round 2 of Picture of the Year 2017 is open![edit]
You are receiving this message because you voted in R1 of the 2017 Picture of the Year contest, but not yet in R2.
Dear Aqwis,
Wikimedia Commons is happy to announce that the second round of the 2017 Picture of the Year competition is now open. This year will be the twelfth edition of the annual Wikimedia Commons photo competition, which recognizes exceptional contributions by users on Wikimedia Commons. Wikimedia users are invited to vote for their favorite images featured on Commons during the last year (2017) to produce a single Picture of the Year.
Hundreds of images that have been rated Featured Pictures by the international Wikimedia Commons community in the past year were entered in this competition. These images include professional animal and plant shots, breathtaking panoramas and skylines, restorations of historical images, photographs portraying the world's best architecture, impressive human portraits, and so much more.
There are two total rounds of voting. In the first round, you voted for as many images as you liked. In Round 1, there were 1475 candidate images. There are 58 finalists in Round 2, comprised of the top 30 overall as well as the top 2 from each sub-category.
In the final round, you may vote for a maximum of three images. The image with the most votes will become the Picture of the Year 2017.
Round 2 will end on 22 July 2018, 23:59 UTC.
Thanks,
the Wikimedia Commons Picture of the Year committee 11:32, 17 July 2018 (UTC)
