Admin?[edit]

Hi King of s. I was wondering if you've ever considered becoming an administrator? I ask this because your qualifications seem quite obvious to me (OTRS member, patroller, frequent participation in DRs, experience with duplicates, etc). If you do have an interest now, or in the future, I'd be happy to nominate you. INeverCry 22:17, 11 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I was actually contacted by someone over email two months ago offering to nominate me if I got my edit count and activity up. If/when I decide to run (probably in the next two months), it'll be great if you could co-nom. -- King of 02:22, 12 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I think an RFA by you right now would be successful, but if you'd rather wait, I certainly wouldn't want to hurry you. I hope it's sooner rather than later though, as Fastily has left a big void around here when it comes to admin work of the DR variety. I'd be happy to either nominate you or vote support whenever you're ready. INeverCry 02:58, 12 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Steps to renominate for featured image?[edit]

Hi, can you please let me know the method of renominate for featured image. -- -- Nasir Khan Saikat (Talk|Contributions) 15:23, 25 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Just create a new nomination for it. For example, if the old nomination was at Commons:Featured picture candidates/File:Example.jpg, then create a new one at Commons:Featured picture candidates/File:Example.jpg (2nd nomination). -- King of 01:48, 26 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for uploading File:Camarillo April 2010.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.

Notification about possible deletion[edit]

Some contents have been listed at Commons:Deletion requests so that the community can discuss whether they should be kept or not. We would appreciate it if you could go to voice your opinion about this at their entry.

If you created these pages, please note that the fact that they have been proposed for deletion does not necessarily mean that we do not value your kind contribution. It simply means that one person believes that there is some specific problem with them, such as a copyright issue. Please see Commons:But it's my own work! for a guide on how to address these issues.

Please remember to respond to and – if appropriate – contradict the arguments supporting deletion. Arguments which focus on the nominator will not affect the result of the nomination. Thank you!

Thank you for your Featured Picture nomination comment[edit]

Thank you for your comments at Commons:Featured picture candidates/File:Streisand Estate.jpg. This is a first time process for me -- got any advice or input? Anything else I should do or say, or improve the image somehow? Thank you for your time, -- Cirt (talk) 18:38, 29 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

For this particular one, I wouldn't do anything about, and just let it run its course, the reason being that it's this particular photo that lead to the Streisand effect and changing it would be altering history. However, in general, e.g. for a photo that you or another Wikimedian took, it is common to upload alternative versions that attempt to fix the problems with the original image. -- King of 18:50, 29 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

An offering for our new administrator from your comrades...

King of Hearts, 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.

Comments OK now. --Kadellar 12:54, 4 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I can't quarrel with your closing this, because I would like to see it closed as a keep. I was hoping, though, to give our new colleague time to withdraw the DR, rather than his feeling that we had somehow done him in.

I don't think there's a chance in the world that the zoo will come after him, but I'd rather lose one image than lose a newbie who can take great pix.

In looking at this undel req, I noticed you basically temp restored these files to look at them. You then say "if another admin agrees with this" they should close it. I was surprised to see that you didn't give an actual opinion on whether the images are ok to be hosted on Commons, which would give me or another admin something to agree with. They look ok to me, but if I were to close it, I'd be doing it on my own without an opinion from you. INeverCry 20:34, 8 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, not only would I have been on my own, I would've most likely been 2/3 wrong. ;) The only reason I mentioned this to you is that I'm used to seeing detailed keep/delete rationales from you regarding questionable images. INeverCry 22:53, 8 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think that's the right way to go about it. Any of us can restore files, so just restoring them and not dealing with them doesn't make much sense. INeverCry 23:49, 8 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hi!

About the deletion requests: George Romanov Pausini, Ana Carmella Matarazzo Pausini and Ângelo Cangueiro Matarazzo Pausini. The user who uploaded these files is a notorious vandal in the Portuguese Wikipedia (his sock puppets are Iagosp3 (talk · contribs) and Juliosp3 (talk · contribs)), creator of fake biographies (including George Romanov Pausini, Ana Carmella Matarazzo Pausini and Ângelo Cangueiro Matarazzo Pausini). He invented these false files to try to legitimize the false biographies in pt-wiki. Biólogo 32 What? 06:18, 11 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

✓ Done. Next time, please provide context when filing a DR like this, as "file name doesn't describe subject" is not a valid reason to delete in and of itself (in such cases we rename). -- King of 06:21, 11 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

What was the QICresult thing about?[edit]

Hello King of Hearts, I noticed you left me a message and deleted it again. What was that all about. I did not see any discussion about a QICresult template anywhere. Is this template still being considered? By whom? What is wrong with the current process? It would just be more convenient for me if I was kept in the loop, so that I have time to prepare any bot changes. --Dschwen (talk) 22:52, 21 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, I see the new template and I see that the bot archived the nomination without any necessary changes. Good. The bot just looks at the Container-Template for each CR-Nom and processes only Decline or Promote templates (and archives stale nominations.. ..I think). Just keep me updated about changes on QIC in case they affect the bot operation. --Dschwen (talk) 22:57, 21 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Red ensigns: a mid-way summation of the process[edit]

Hallo, You've left an administrative comment on my talkpage, which is found here, where you posted the terms of the temporary movebot limitation and encouraged me to work out the Red Ensigns rename issue with the user who was trying to oppose the move "and when you have reached a consensus, let me know on my talk page". I'm now on your talk page actually with very little to announce, first of all I would like to inform you that your comment has attracted a considerable thread on my wall, and second, which is why I can't let you know of a desirable progress regarding the category, is that the user on which you've imposed fairly and equally the assignment of coming in discussion with me is refusing to do so, as far as they're able to express themselves (i.e writing oddities about "delinkers" instead of responding to the topical argumentations). This recent phenomenon of undiscussing came about this morning and you can see that they haven't commented anything further on that designated thread. On this ground, unhappily, I'd like to ask you to consider abolishing the limitation uopn my critical usage of the Movebot since it was very right as long as we believed that the user could discuss or agree with co-editors and now, sadly this is a waste of time when my plentiful move commands can't take effect with the bot. I'm an editor highly dedicated to category management and wnat to ask you to grant me with the permission to handle the bot basing on my history as a catmaster who is sensitive to very most aspects after 2 years of renaming and carrying out many helpful corrections. Thankz, Orrlingtalk 14:35, 23 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I think the best thing to do when you get reverted at User talk:CommonsDelinker/commands is to open a CfD. After all, a discussion is going to take place anyways, so it might as well take place at the correct venue. I'll lift the restriction if you open a CfD (or otherwise settle or drop the matter). -- King of 19:37, 23 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Well, no. I'm afaraid not.. As a very basic thing, ever since I've learned how to harness the Bot and my other tools to the required moves, when an edit of mine is arbitrarily reasonlessly declined/reverted by the user they are reverted to simply the point where they will reason themselves. If I desire to use the movecat bot page it has so far been only a half-effect as feeding the commands into the 'actual' bot is nowadays limited for many productive editors. (those commands that are thwarted by the user are carried out manually, but the bot isn't being paid to sit unemployed): I propose therefore that I be handed the activation rights, to put the bread into the oven, so we all can enjoy a more efficiant and objective catmove process, as much as we've all understood in the past 2 days that the existing situation - where any stray user can delete commands without following basic conventions - was unwelcome. As a "categorist" I let anyone know that if they disagree on a command all they need is to add an argumentary comment below the relevant request (or, remove the request and address the requester about it) and then the parties might proceed to discuss at the category's talk page. I've initiated many Village Pump calls to the various rename talks and it proves good :) . I think what we want now, after you've reviewed the situation caused by the person undiscussing this morning, is that the fluent and coherent circle of maintenace here basically be restored, with a safe clear prospect of long-term freedom from those disruptions. In the small scale, it is wise that until I get the access, one of the Admins put Category:Red ensigns>Category:Red Ensigns into the movebot. Orrlingtalk 21:29, 23 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
It doesn't matter who's right. The fact that he removed the request means that it is controversial by definition, and needs a CfD. -- King of 00:31, 24 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
You are contested: Deleting an editor's movecommand requires an argumentay comment in either requester's page (per that very page's guidelines) or insertion of "disagreed for the reason of..." below the command (as is quite commony done, which then allows editor to take their movecommand to a separate discusspage). As you very well can see the discussion I srarted about category:Red ensighs hasn't borne any response since I last texted you, no need to pretend like we no longer have well-established do's-and-don't-dso's here & like you have'nt read all the project threads dedicated to the problematic user & the paragraph I posted as reply to you on my talkpage.

Hi King of Hearts. When you have a moment, could you do me a favor. After this request of deletion I decided to occupy my time to list the files with the same problem. I drew up a list of many files to delete. The problem is "no FoP in Italy". Could you check if everything is correct on User:Raoli/Deletion requests/FoP Italy? Thanks!

Hi King of Hearts,

Thank you for taking your time to review this FPC. Since your vote, an alternative has been proposed. Another reviewer (Jkadavoor) has requested that early reviewers also review the alternative. Thanks, --Slaunger (talk) 08:47, 25 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, but I prefer the original. Sometimes it's difficult to balance between obeying the rule of thirds and getting all the colors and compositional elements you want in an image, but in this case, I feel that the crop takes away too much of the sky. -- King of 08:54, 25 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Thats fine, thanks. Thanks. I also think the 1/3 sky crop takes a bit too much away. I actualy have a another (not uploaded) crop, where the horizon is exactly in the middle, cropping just a little of the sky. Probably my own personal favorite. Maybe I should have started out with that, but I do not want to throw that into the game now, it would be too confusing. I could upload it though and link to it from the image page as an "other version".--Slaunger (talk) 09:13, 25 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I made it that based on how egregious the history logs looked, as well as this being the minimum time I feel necessary for both to recognize that edit warring is bad and why they should not resume it upon expiry of the block. -- King of 17:42, 28 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Disney Cruise Line ship categories[edit]

Hi, KoH. I saw you closed Commons:Categories for discussion/2011/04/Category:Disney Magic (ship, 1998) as "move", but it appears someone has moved them back (the actual operation was done by a bot, so it's hard to tell who told it to).

the "fix" in the set gallery[edit]

Why? Because now the images and videos are show at a tenth of other images size, and that is quite unfair to the set since people wont see the images there. Even because we had bigger and similar size sets who weren't reduced. So why this one? Béria Lima msg 04:11, 4 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The exact same thing was done to the two you have linked with the includeonly/noinclude trick, and nobody complained. Basically the idea is to make the images smaller on the main FPC page and larger on the actual nomination page. Have you considered that it may be unfair to the nominations below, especially the one directly below? Because people who aren't interested in this particular nom may just keep scrolling and miss the one directly below. -- King of 04:26, 4 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

FAEP does it again[edit]

now I do not put more to correct his behavior, I am writing to you as you think and behave, but instead of helping acts edit war, as always. look here: [3] The block was useless, the user does not change his way of behaving towards me, does not change how to use the tools given, does not cooperate but instead of contributing to commons, its purpose seems to bother me. It happens to everyone to forget him and instead of improving a file, damages it. Of en.wiki he just discredited and no longer intervened to change the action that he did. And on at commons has other image [4] underneath again made a change for which had been blocked (edit that I neglected to avoid edit-war, but he did not learn anything). I entrust myself to your authority and your intelligence. Please this is to make fun of others, you persecute a user. thank you. --Pava (talk) 00:00, 7 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

thank you very much, I hope to have a future of peace. But I'd like to alert you that i now have open discussions in the talk of the images in question, and wrote in his talk and I wrote to you :) so my behavior was far more diplomatic than that of the first block. --Pava (talk) 16:14, 8 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
and in en.wiki FAEP performs the same operations (edit war) which here took a block with other users.look here [5]. I told you so is irrecoverable, it is not interested in contributing right now, he says in his talk on commons that has other things to do, and the contribution has changed over time, perhaps it was a great user, but now his way to contribute is completely changed. Bah, I care for you now, (even en.wiki) I hold out, because I do not want to get in trouble just because I oppose or speak to someone with such behavior --Pava (talk) 16:22, 8 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hi King of Hearts. I'm contacting you because you're one of the Commons admins I recognize. Would you take a look at File:Crystal the Monkey.jpg? The page says, "This is my own photo I took on the red carpet. Previously published: Website" I'm worried that it might be a copyright violation.
