Linking

It's good that you're providing cleaned-up versions of all those PSF images, but when you edit the originals to provide links to the cleaned-up versions, the links are almost always dead.

Compare this to this. DS (talk) 13:17, 25 May 2019 (UTC)

OK, Thanks for the reminder, I try remind to link properly using [[ ]].

P.S :Also I appreciate if you don't crop the big picture into smaller pics EXCEPT for the picture which do not have names / label /identifier attached in it. See https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:PSF-W1020003.png

It breaks my motivation to reduce the backlog when suddenly the amount increased Encik Tekateki (talk) 14:32, 25 May 2019 (UTC)

Your English is a million times better than my Bahasa Melayu could ever be, but I'm not entirely sure what you're asking me to not do, sorry. (Obviously I won't do any more cropping until we've got this sorted out!) DS (talk) 23:09, 25 May 2019 (UTC)

HI DS, apology if my tone sound harsh, I meant that it is OK to crop the pictures BUT only applicable to the picture which do not have the labels /identifier on them

For example, in this same images, this original scan picture https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:PSF-W1020003.png , there are 2 images that are without any labels/identifier on the original scan pictures, namely and . In this case, yeah it is totally fine to crop the images and give them their appropriate labels and identifier. But not on the images that already have the label / identifier.

I'm sorry, I'm still not clear. Let me try again. PSF images have two sorts of labels on them - let's call them "internal" labels, handwritten and messy, like in this one , and the "public" labels, formal and proper, like in this one . Are you asking me to a) always remove the internal labels, b) never remove the internal labels, or c) something else? Sorry for the inconvenience. DS (talk) 22:28, 28 May 2019 (UTC)

Hi DS, it's alright. I think a or b are unnecessary , what I proposed is c for sake of reducing backlog of PSF.

Basically , the 2 pictures that you provided is good because there are clear identifications of what is that thing about.

Like this is worm gear (See label 1307 worm gear) and this is well structure.(See label w-32 well)

Just there are some picture that do not have any names to identify what is that thing / animal/plants . Once again, looking at this ori scan picture ,and in this picture, both of this (it should have label washboard in the ori scan) and (it should have label warbler in the ori scan)do not have sort of naming/label on it and it causes hiccups when we want to upload the images because we do not know what is that image shows.

See another example of ori scan:, due to at that time I do not know what is that bottom left picture represents, I named the images at that time to P Berries until it got identified by other Wikimedians @Thiotrix: (Thanks) . See: https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=File%3APepper_%28PSF%29.png&type=revision&diff=351793520&oldid=351702302

So, in my opinion, DS you should do the option C . Crop up only the images without labels and upload them using appropriate names. For example, have 3 picture (all are in top left corner) without any labels to identifying it, in my opinion, that 3 picture should be cropped and labelled appropriately and NOT ALL of images inside the ori scan to reduce backlogs and also to save your time too. Hope this will clear everything up. ;) Cheers Encik Tekateki (talk) 11:06, 30 May 2019 (UTC)

I can pretty easily identify the unlabeled images because all the images in a given scan have English names that are very close to each other, alphabetically (which is the whole point). In the scan you provide, one of the images is a watch and one is a waffle iron (I'm not sure about the third). So, only crop and upload the images that are unidentified (and which I can identify)? Okay. DS (talk) 01:04, 31 May 2019 (UTC)

Ah, and third one identified: it's baleen (or "whalebone"). DS (talk) 13:05, 1 June 2019 (UTC)

It is very nice that you able to be able to identify it. :) This is the spirit of Commons ! :) Thanks by Encik Tekateki (talk) 14:44, 1 June 2019 (UTC)

Regarding the most recent images: check my uploads, I've identified many (though not all) of the unlabeled images. DS (talk) 15:30, 18 August 2019 (UTC)

Mistagging copyvios

Reasons like personal photo, an advertisement, or out of scope is not a valid reason to request copyvio speedy deletion. Refrain from performing this further. You can either manually tag and notify with {{SD}} (for file page) and {{Speedynote}} (for talk page) or use Help:QuickDelete. Thanks. 1989 (talk) 09:17, 6 January 2020 (UTC)

Hi admin @1989: , sorry about that. I always thought that Speedy Deletion performs same as Copyvios.

What led me to this belief because I see the pages for COM:SELFIE tagged directed to here: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Personal_files_for_speedy_deletion and COM:ADVERTS tagged directed to here : https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Other_speedy_deletions

Sorry for any inconveniences caused. Perhaps this should be done by more experienced volunteers.

Kindly forgive me for this time gaffe and don't ban me please.

Truly sorry by: Encik Tekateki (talk) 04:31, 7 January 2020 (UTC)

Del

Careful!

Notice that here you uploaded an image over a pre-existing, different image. No harm done - I've tagged the image for splitting; this is just so you know. DS (talk) 22:11, 10 April 2020 (UTC)

OOps.. Sorry for the silly mistake of mine Encik Tekateki (talk) 01:24, 11 April 2020 (UTC)

Initial and Factotum Initial

Hello,

Please do not confuse initials and factotum initials. A factotum initial is like a decorated box with an empty space in the middle in which a letter is drawn, that could be easily replaced by another letter. If the letter cannot be easily changed, this is an initial but not a factotum initial.

For example, this is a factotum initial :

and this is an initial :

Yours, F (talk) 19:21, 10 September 2020 (UTC)

Hi there, truly apologies for the mistake of categorization. Welp, whenever I free, I changes back to "X" as initials. Truly apologies for the mistake cat Encik Tekateki (talk) 23:32, 10 September 2020 (UTC)

Update: Hi @Kilom691: , I done all the "escapees" miscat of factotum initials. So sorry of this mistake Encik Tekateki (talk) 04:32, 11 September 2020 (UTC)

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.

SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics)

In other languages (translate this)

Please use SVG Thank you for uploading some images! 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!

Possible project

Since you were involved in producing cleaned-up versions of the PSF line art, I thought perhaps you might be interested in an equivalent project with images I extracted from The Tacoma Times. They're certainly not all line art, but many of them are. DS (talk) 14:32, 2 September 2023 (UTC)

Hi DS , thanks for your work for the project but nowadays my time is more spent to my newborns nowadays which you see from my contribution logs. I think I am unable to commit my time this time round.

However, the reasons I am involved with Pearson PSF cleanup previously because I used many of the free (as in copyright and also price) images as my presentation clip-art back then I was in High School , and to repay back the Commons community, I spend quite a lot of time cleaning up the rest of PSF images to usable states. Thank you again from Encik Tekateki (talk) 12:37, 4 September 2023 (UTC)

That's fine; thank you just the same, and also congratulations on this new phase of your life. DS (talk) 14:02, 6 September 2023 (UTC)
