Message above[edit]

I like "This discussion has been moved back...." Do you subst: a template, or just type it out when you need it? If subst, what template? If not, I think I'll make a template for it.      Jim . . . . Jameslwoodward (talk to me) 10:42, 1 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I subst {{User:LX/Moved back to}} (and {{User:LX/Moved back here}}). —LX (talk, contribs) 10:47, 1 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Would you object if I created them in Template space? I think they're generally useful and, although your name is short, it still saves typing to have them there.     Jim . . . . Jameslwoodward (talk to me) 17:40, 1 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Not at all – go right ahead! That would also mean that we could make them multilingual. —LX (talk, contribs) 18:15, 1 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Poss Flickr washing?[edit]

You are far better in this area than me :) See here and these. I'm doing some background digging. Thanks --Herby talk thyme 12:06, 14 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

My findings: All but one of the first 34 uploads by the Flickr user have file names indicating they were taken from Facebook, including File:David Archuleta Press Conference 2012.jpg (270787_10150710121550076_672725075_19626750_1520815_n) and File:30secondtomars2012.jpg (225753_10150719136985076_672725075_19737471_1259799_n). Facebook strips the metadata from uploaded photos. The claim that they were taken on the date of upload is very likely wrong. Indeed, the backdrop of File:David Archuleta Press Conference 2012.jpg shows that it's from a Pond's Teen Concert press conference in Jakarta on 2011-07-16. All of the Flickr uploader's photos I came across were apparently taken in the Jakarta area, including the ones with Facebook names. The third part of a Facebook photo ID is the Facebook uploader's ID, in this case 672725075 for all photos with Facbook names in the Flickr stream. https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=672725075 is clearly the same girl as depicted in http://www.flickr.com/photos/karinasaskia/7490059184.
My conclusions: The photos on Flickr that are taken from Facebook are clearly from the same user's account. This could be because they transferred photos from their Facebook account to their Flickr account just after creating the latter. They are consistent in quality, and I believe that they're taken by the same person. I see no reason to suspect copyright infringement on behalf of the Flickr user. I also see no particular reason to assume that the Commons user is the same as the Flickr user. The Commons user's English is word soup, while the Flickr/Facebook user has moved from Jakarta to Wisconsin. It would be quite hard to work as a university research assistant in the United States with those communication skills. —LX (talk, contribs) 13:15, 14 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Appreciated and I learned some things too :) Thanks --Herby talk thyme 14:33, 14 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

re: July 12 deletions[edit]

Hello, you arbitrarily deleted several images that indeed are my own work. In the future, I would be careful about one-person deletions of U.S. imagery from a nomination by a non-native English speaker, especially when there are no comments on the deletion request. Feel free to restore them, or I can go about the arduous task of re-uploading them. Archivist1174 (talk) 04:39, 29 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

  1. I didn't delete anything. I nominated the files for deletion, and they were deleted by High Contrast.
  2. The deletion was not arbitrary. I stated my reasons, you were given time to respond, and the matter was handled completely in accordance with Commons' policies.
  3. I don't see how my English proficiency is relevant here.
  4. Re-uploading previously deleted files without consensus will probably get your privileges on this site revoked.
  5. I see that the matter is being dealt with at Commons:Undeletion requests/Current requests#Files uploaded by Archivist1174, which is a much more appropriate place than my talk page. Please keep it there and don't cross-post.

Quick question[edit]

Hi LX. After looking at all the work you do here, especially with deletion/copyvio, I wonder why you're not an administrator? INeverCry 21:56, 26 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

It's come up a few times before. In reverse chronological order: User talk:LX/Archive/2012: January to March#Adminship, User talk:LX/Archive/2012: January to March#Admin? and User talk:LX/Archive/2011: January to March#Admin. Cheers, —LX (talk, contribs) 22:15, 26 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I understand. I guess you're used to this question. Atleast it's better than getting repeat complaints. I hope you don't mind my giving you one of these:
The Commons Barnstar
