SVG images[edit]

As you've noticed, I've updated some SVG flags of countries. For some reason Adobe Illustrator seems to create much larger files than the originals even if the only thing modified was the colours. Is there some way to keep the file size as small as possible in Illustrator or do I need another way of modifying the flags? You seem to have some experience with SVG's, so I'm asking directly. –Vzb83 09:15, 6 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Makes sense, and something I just remembered is that larger larger original images result in nicer looking thumbnails. —Philip Nilsson 00:59, 7 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Flag of England[edit]

Image:Flag of England.svg seems to be broken, and you're the last person listed as having edited it. Could you have a look at it and see what has happened? Cantthinkofagoodname 00:57, 17 January 2006 (UTC) (if replying, please do so at en:User:Cantthinkofagoodname. Thanks.[reply]

standard redundant
Gabbe, please do not list these in deletion requests. These are standard redundant images and should be treated as such. This one: Image:Asiatic.lioness.bristol.arp.jpg, at least, is in use in many wikipedias. The tag {{Redundant}} will be sufficient.

Very well, but remember to list things at redundant. It will save you time as well as the editors! Cary "Bastique" Bass parler voir 20:50, 16 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Licenstaggar[edit]

Hej, tack för att du orkar göra det jag inte orkar, dvs fixa mina licenstaggar. Är alla fixade eller bara några? MVH Grillo 19:14, 28 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

PD-Sweden[edit]

Hej! Är det säkert att bilder som Image:Quarnevalen 1965.jpg är PD? Jag undrar lite för att dessa bilder har nog inte publicerats innan Andrew Eick uppladdade dem til Flickr. /Pieter Kuiper (talk) 07:12, 27 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Swedish translations needed[edit]

Hi! I contact you as you speak English and Swedish.

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 Swedish 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) 13:34, 15 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Merci beaucoup :) Bibi Saint-Pol (sprechen) 15:15, 19 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Gabbe!
Tip: Add categories to your files
Tip: Add categories to your files

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.

Copyright Violation of Bertrand_russell.jpg[edit]

Karte zu den LDC[edit]

Hallo, da du auf deinem Profil angibst, Deutsch zu verstehen, versuche ich es einfach mal in dieser Sprache, gerne trage ich dir mein Anliegen aber auch auf Deutsch vor. Ich habe gesehen, dass du erst vor kurzem die Karte zu den Least Developed Countries bearbeitet hast (Siehe hier). Daher habe ich mich gefragt, ob du Samoa und die Malediven, die mittlerweile nicht mehr dazu gezählt werden (Quelle), aus der Karte entfernen könntest? Für Rückmeldungen möchte ich dich bitten, mich über meine Diskussionsseite in der deutschsprachigen Wikipedia zu erreichen, da ist die Chance größer, dass ich das auch mitbekommen ;-) Viele Grüße, --Carolus requiescat (talk) 13:32, 19 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hab deine Nachricht gelesen,ich mich wohl vertan, hab die Malediven mit den Komoren verwechselt und bei den Pazifikstaaten blicke ich sowieso nie ganz durch ;-) Danke trotzdem!--Carolus requiescat (talk) 15:02, 19 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Greenland and Puerto Rico[edit]

Regarding this: File:Electoral democracies.svg. Greenland and Puerto Rico were forgotten. The former is part of Denmark and the latter is part of USA, which both are electoral democracies according to the Freedom in the World 2016 report. It is the same as Scotland (part of UK), French Guiana (part of France), etc, which already are correctly marked on the map. Regards, 80.62.117.170 06:18, 2 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Map of judicial corporal punishment[edit]

The map is misleading, only the Aceh Special Region in Indonesia practices judicial corporal punishment, this map may mislead someone into thinking that the entire Indonesia practices it when it is really just one part of Indonesia that does it 2001:D08:D1:D35F:44BF:F2FE:6FD0:ED6A 06:18, 28 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
