Info for interest only

I know you tagged some of them but I've just blocked 10 users who have all been uploading music equipment related images. Maybe they will get the point now! Regards --Herby ^{talk thyme} 08:23, 3 July 2010 (UTC)

Wonderful! You have so much faith in people, though. —LX (talk, contribs) 08:26, 3 July 2010 (UTC)

Actually I have great faith in people generally (assuming I read you right) but I also know what some folk here will get up to! As always - thanks for your work here, there are few good ones left now sadly. --Herby ^{talk thyme} 08:38, 3 July 2010 (UTC)

Blocage des photos concernant la biographie d'Edoardo Puglisi

Tack för hjälpen

med kategorierna. Jag måste erkänna att jag fullständigt hade missat att Högbergsgatan tydligen heter Högborgsgatan numera. Något jag inte verkar vara ensam om, Högbergsgatan vs Högborgsgatan--Ankara (talk) 14:07, 7 July 2010 (UTC)

Ingen orsak. Jag vet inte ens hur officiellt det är. Jag tycker också att man borde hört mer om det. På både Eniros och stadsbyggnadskontorets kartor står det fortfarande Högbergsgatan, trots att ändringen verkar ha skett för cirka två år sedan. —LX (talk, contribs) 14:12, 7 July 2010 (UTC)

Ursäkta att jag snöat in på det här. Jag har kontrollerat ett antal gatuskyltar längs med Högb*rgsgatan och på alla står det Högbergsgatan. Jag börjar undra om namnbytet är en vandringssägen som uppstått på grund av en felstavad gatuskylt. Det finns onekligen ett bildbevis här (dumt nog har jag inte kollat den skylten) men det skulle kunna vara en feltryckt skylt (något som har hänt förrut).--Ankara (talk) 22:38, 18 July 2010 (UTC)

Hmm, jo, det verkar onekligen så. Namnformen Högbergsgatan fastslogs 1919, och namnet har funnits i äldre namnformer såsom Höghe bärgz gathan och Högh bärgz gathan från första halvan av 1600-talet. Det känns inte troligt att man skulle gå och ändra på det. Om ingen på Projekt Stockholm vet svaret kanske man kan reda ut det med kommunen. Om jag fattat rätt är det stadsbyggnadskontoret som ansvarar för namngivningen och trafikkontoret som ansvarar för skyltningen. —LX (talk, contribs) 08:13, 19 July 2010 (UTC)

You will probably find it but

The talk page is partly addressed to you :) Cheers --Herby ^{talk thyme} 18:02, 11 July 2010 (UTC)

I've replied at the duplicate entry on the user's talk page (which is indeed on my watchlist, along with the file and its talk page). The file can now be deleted (again). —LX (talk, contribs) 12:45, 12 July 2010 (UTC)

Samarbete (AGF)?

Ang. Cleanup: Finding a file on the Internet does not make one the author; -"permission" which isn't needed; changed bogus license to PD tag; don't put files in meta categories

Tack för dina korrigeringar. Jag vill redogöra för bakgrunden till detta med "permission" which isn't needed". Det är inte så att jag har hittat en rolig, slumpvis vald bild, utan en bild som är viktig för projektet Ortportaler. Skutan på bilden har stått modell för Österåkers kommunvapen: Österåker deltar i Projekt:Ortportaler.

Att jag gjorde en templet för uppladdningar från bildarkivet vid Vallentuna bibliotek beror på att jag vill inkludera dem i projektet genom en viss grad av synlighet = mall. Jag har skrivit till biblioteks bildarkiv för att informera dem om publiceringen av bilden på Commons för att försöka uppnå en viss grad av samarbete inom ramen för projekt Ortportaler. Det finns fler bilder från samma källa som jag vill ladda upp på commons. Du är säkert varse GLAM-projektet. Detta sker i sann GLAM-anda. Läs ev. mer här /Einarspetz (talk) 21:31, 14 July 2010 (UTC)

Hejsan Einar,

Tack för informationen! Då förstår jag tanken bakom mallen lite bättre. Några funderingar:

Såvitt jag förstår anger mallen inte något generellt tillstånd att använda innehåll från Vallentuna kommuns bildarkiv. Vi kan hämta enskilda bilder därifrån under förutsättning att de är i allmän ägo på grund av ålder (som i detta fall) eller respektive upphovsrättsinnehavare går med på publicering under en fri licens (såsom {{Cc-by-sa-3.0}}, vilken dock i detta fall inte förefaller tillämplig, eftersom den förutsätter att upphovsrättsskyddet fortfarande är giltigt och att upphovsrättsinnehavaren uttrycker sitt medgivande). Mallen skulle dock kunna användas för att ange att bilden är hämtad från bildarkivet, så att den som hittar bilden här på Commons kan verifiera informationen i beskrivningen. Med detta synsätt skulle mallen passa för användning i source-fältet.

För att en sådan användning ska fungera på bästa sätt borde mallen ta bildens löpnummer (6028 i detta fall) som ett argument, så att vi kan länka till rätt sida i arkivet. Ett exempel på en mall med liknande funktion är {{LOC-image}}. Den mallen är också väl utformad och beprövad vad gäller kategorisering och liknande. Om detta stämmer överens med vad du tänkt dig, hjälper jag gärna till att fixa till mallen i liknande anda. —LX (talk, contribs) 09:30, 15 July 2010 (UTC)

Så, nu har jag gjort som jag föreslog. Mallen hittar du fortfarande på {{Vallentuna Public Library}}, tillsammans med dokumentation av dess användning. Den växlar nu språk beroende på användarens inställning (för närvarande finns den på svenska och engelska). Den lägger in uppmärkta bilder i Category:Images from Vallentuna Public Library, och mallen är själv kategoriserad under Category:Source templates. Mallen tar nu bildens löpnummer som argument, och jag har uppdaterat användningen i File:Alcea.jpg i enlighet med detta. —LX (talk, contribs) 14:12, 6 August 2010 (UTC)

Vandalism?

Question

According to Argentine copyright law, any image that is older then 25 years, that is, anything made before 1985, is legit to use without the need of the author (source still needs to be cited). On that I am clear.

Now...I have found a great deal of pictures of squads that won the Copa Libertadores. All of the pictures have something in common: they have an "El Grafico" stamp on it as you can see here.

Could I still upload the pictures as so or so I need to leave out the "El Grafico" part? Jamen Somasu (talk) 23:57, 10 August 2010 (UTC)

Watermarks are discouraged on Commons. This means that versions without watermarks are preferred on Commons, and files uploaded with watermarks may have those marks removed. It does not mean, however, that you are obligated to remove watermarks from freely licensed files that you upload from other sources.

Note that {{PD-AR-Photo}} requires that you provide not only the source where you found the files, but also evidence that the image was taken more than 25 years ago and the date and source of publication more than 20 years old. If you are able to provide those details, perhaps you are also able to find original versions without those watermarks. —LX (talk, contribs) 00:13, 11 August 2010 (UTC)

Request

Hi, can you delete the image Ecofet.jpg please? This image has copyright and I seen this after. Thanks -- Andrevruas (talk) 21:56, 24 August 2010 (UTC)

File:Ecofet.jpg

Ecofet

I'm not an administrator, so I can't delete anything. If the file is a copyright violation, you can put {{copyvio|Reason}} on the file description page. Did you take the file from somewhere else? If so, why have you claimed to be the author and copyright holder? —LX (talk, contribs) 05:48, 25 August 2010 (UTC)

 Done. --Túrelio (talk) 12:00, 2 September 2010 (UTC)

Template:Copyvio

Why deleting infos like templates for notifying the uploader? Oh, I see. "Click here to show further instructions". This should be in a different color or else. --Kungfuman (talk) 10:01, 20 September 2010 (UTC)

Uhm... I'm not sure I understand what you mean. I can only assume that you believe that I removed some information from {{Copyvio}}. What I actually did was explained in the edit summaries and in Template talk:Copyvio#Languages. This is what the template looked like before I started editing (source) and this is what it looked like when I was done (source). In source mode, that may look like a big change, but that's because the information is now imported from other templates based on your selected language instead of always defaulting to English. The English version of the template itself is largely unchanged. —LX (talk, contribs) 15:46, 20 September 2010 (UTC)

Question from Kentronhayastan

I have a Wikipedia account called KentronHayastan. I thought it wouldn't be case sensitive, but now Kentronhayastan and KentronHayastan are two different accounts. I always have to switch from on to the other. Do you think there's a way to transfer everything from this account to KentronHayastan so I can merge the two, without having to re-upload everything and re-edit all of the Wikipedia articles that use my uploads? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kentronhayastan (talk • contribs) 19:34, 27 September 2010 (UTC)

Yes, that can be done. See Commons:Changing username. —LX (talk, contribs) 19:42, 27 September 2010 (UTC)

Photo categories

Thanks for sorting my photos to more specific categories! Dmitry G (talk) 11:42, 29 September 2010 (UTC)

You're welcome! Thanks for your contributions. I'd like to offer a small hint as well: I notice that you write the date on your uploads as "27 - SEP - 2010" (for example). If you write the date as "2010-09-27" instead, the way it is shown is determined by each user's own language and date format preferences. —LX (talk, contribs) 17:02, 29 September 2010 (UTC)

I'll try, but I'm afraid to write "9th october" instead of "10th september" or "2nd march" instead of "3rd february". I really do mistakes in such format. So, will work on my mistakes in the future. Dmitry G (talk) 17:28, 29 September 2010 (UTC)

If it helps you remember, think of it the same way you write a number, like an amount of money: the biggest units go on the left and the smallest units go on the right. For example, if you have €412, you have four (4) €100 bills, one (1) €10 bill, and two (2) €1 coins. Same thing with dates: the year is biggest, so it's on the left, the month is in the middle, and the day is the smallest unit, so it goes on the right. —LX (talk, contribs) 17:43, 29 September 2010 (UTC)

Oh, thank you much! Yes, today is 2010-09-27. And 2nd march is 2010-03-02. And 3rd february is 2010-02-03. Correct. It is quite unusual to be reconstructed from the Soviet format, which I used approximately 20 years of my life everywhere and every day :) Dmitry G (talk) 17:55, 29 September 2010 (UTC)

Hi LX. You unintentionally categorized this image into Category:Items missing OTRS ticket ID. --Leyo 16:09, 30 September 2010 (UTC)

Indeed I did. Thanks for spotting it! Fixed, I hope. Note that I haven't checked the ticket, since I'm not an OTS agent, but I did check that the uploader is, and I assume this is the result they were trying to achieve. —LX (talk, contribs) 16:17, 30 September 2010 (UTC)

Thank you. --Leyo 16:36, 30 September 2010 (UTC)
