James McGee <-> Kamke renames

Please read the link included in the request. Uploader agrees. Yes, the description and categories also need to be changed. If you want to change them too, great, please do. If not, then do the part that he and I can't do, and let him and me do the parts that we can. --GRuban (talk) 14:44, 7 January 2016 (UTC)

Changed the parts that I could. Ball in your court. (Tennis phrase.) :-) --GRuban (talk) 14:53, 7 January 2016 (UTC)

Again: the renaming is the less important step of all. To correct the discription is the real important thing, also the correct categorization is of importance. If this is done, the renamer can see, that a request is valide. Then comes the renaming. But you can not want the ranamer to do the work - because he/she is not the person with the knowledge in this field. So FIRST the important work done - then there's no problem with renaming. Marcus Cyron (talk) 15:26, 7 January 2016 (UTC)

Thanks, now I know. --GRuban (talk) 15:29, 7 January 2016 (UTC)

Then I'm very happy :) Marcus Cyron (talk) 13:23, 10 January 2016 (UTC)

Problems with two images

Thanks for having answered to my renaming request. Anyway, I made a mess: the names of these two images need to be inverted since the first is the complete pic of the coffee pot, the second is a detail:

• 
  change to "Coffee pot Moka.jpg"
• 
  change to "Coffee pot Moka detail.jpg"

Thanks in advance.--Carnby (talk) 20:45, 8 January 2016 (UTC)

S... happens. ;) I've fixed it. Marcus Cyron (talk) 12:49, 9 January 2016 (UTC)

From where do you know, it was not Renewed? Marcus Cyron (talk) 00:41, 12 January 2016 (UTC)

Eh What?

Why did you delete the James Horner images? they were released under a free licence (cc-y-sa) and even though the licenses have been changed now on flickr, every admin knows that "cc licences are irrevocable" ....here is a discussion on this last month.. it was KEPT then, twice.(Commons:Deletion_requests/Files_in_Category:James_Horner) ..--Stemoc 04:49, 12 January 2016 (UTC)

Because it is not clear, if they ever were published under a valide licence. Marcus Cyron (talk) 12:07, 12 January 2016 (UTC)

I checked it as mentioned in the DR and passed it...its the reason why i made another crop of the image..why would i blatantly crop and upload a non-free image?--Stemoc 15:30, 12 January 2016 (UTC)

I did not know this talk. I do not overrule the deccissions of other admins, so I restore the images. Marcus Cyron (talk) 18:23, 12 January 2016 (UTC)

Flickr Fotos

Ich verstehe den Hintergrund der Löschung der Bilder File:Sigi Hagl auf dem Bundesparteitag der Grünen in Halle (Saale) 2015.jpg|thumb|Sigi Hagl auf dem Bundesparteitag der Grünen in Halle (Saale) im November 2015, File:Felix Banaszak (2015).jpg|thumb|Felix Banaszak (2015) und File:Alexander Bonde auf dem Landesparteitag in Reutlingen (2015).jpg|thumb|Alexander Bonde auf dem Landesparteitag in Reutlingen (2015) nicht. Sie stehen alle auf Flickr mit cc-by-sa 2.0. Was stimmt da dann nicht? lg Max

Die Lizenz auf flickr war eine andere, die nicht mit unseren hier kompatibel ist. Leider war es nicht cc-by-sa 2.0, sondern nc. Aber da du offenbar der Fotograf bis, kannst du das natürlich ändern. Mit deinen Bildern kannst du natürlich anders umgehen. Ich kann sie wieder herstellen, dann sollte vielleicht kein Hinweis auf flickr erfolgen. Oder dort die Lizenz geändert werden. Was das angeht, müssen wir hier leider streng sein. Marcus Cyron (talk) 18:20, 12 January 2016 (UTC)

Also hätte ich einfach nicht die vorgefertigten Flickr-Optionen anklicken, sondern getrennt davon CC BY-NC-SA 2.0 angeben müssen. Dann mach ich das einfach nochmal, dann hab ich dann auch den Dreh raus ;) Danke für die schnelle Antwort.

Gere. Freut mich, wenn es sich geklärt hat :) - es ist immer schade, wenn Bilder sonst verschwinden. Ich hasse es das zu tun, aber leider ist es immer wieder notwendig. Marcus Cyron (talk) 16:21, 13 January 2016 (UTC)

And why don't you write this in the request? We don't have that much Admins who speak Armenian. So the others need to know why exactly they should rename. We can not only guess. Please be as concrete as possible for the future. Marcus Cyron (talk) 12:48, 14 January 2016 (UTC)

Darf ich dich ersuchen, ...

die Fotobenennung meiner eingestellten Fotos mir selbst zu überlassen - Danke! Ersuche daher das Foto wieder in die ursprüngliche Form (Hackledt - Schloss.JPG) rückzuverschieben oder nach Hackledt - Schloss, Südostansicht.JPG. Nach diesem Schema habe ich nämlich in den letzten Jahren meine tausenden Fotos hochgeladen ([1]). -- Bwag (talk) 22:54, 17 January 2016 (UTC)

Holly

Hallo Marcus, hab gerade die schlesische Adelsfamilie Holly/Holy als kat angelegt. Holly (allein) ist aber eine Weiterleitung. MMn gehört eine allgemeine Kategorie „Holly (Personen)” oder so ähnlich angelegt (da gehört zB. File:Holly Hunter (center) (2087759252).jpg hinein), da kann man aber dann auch das polnisch/schlesische Geschlecht reingeben. Viele Fotos warden da auch polnisch beschriftet sein. Kannst du bitte auch polnische Beschreibungen ergänzen (oder lassen). lg --Hannes 24 (talk) 19:23, 25 January 2016 (UTC)

Hi, du kannst die Weiterleitung einfach überschreiben. Ist ja sinnvoll, wenn es mehr als eine nennenswerte Bedeutung gibt. Commons hat da wie Wikipedien auch eine Vorlage zur begriffsklärung: Template:Disambig. Und es wäre besser wenn du es machst, als wenn ich es mache, da ich dann nicht stümpern müßte. Du weißt, was hier rein muß. Marcus Cyron (talk) 19:54, 25 January 2016 (UTC)

ich hab sowas hier noch nie gemacht und möchte nichts falsch machen. Ich weiß auch nicht, was da für eine Bezeichnung üblich ist (s.o.). lg --Hannes 24 (talk) 17:48, 26 January 2016 (UTC)

Ganz ehrlich - ich auch nicht ;). BKL sind hier eher selten. Am Ende gilt aber auch auf Commons: sei mutig! Kaputt machen kannst du nix :). Marcus Cyron (talk) 18:02, 26 January 2016 (UTC)

Löschung Bild mit privaten Exif-Daten

Hallo Marcus, kannst du bitte bei Wiki-Commos, die erste Version des Bildes File:S41 Egyptian submarine of German submarine class 209-1400mod at Kiel.JPG restlos löschen? Ich hatte vor dem Upload vergessen die Exif-Datei zu löschen. Somit stehen seit ein paar Stunden meine private Email-Adresse und mein Geburtsdatum aufgrund der Exif-Datei nun öffentlich sichtbar online. Bitte wirklich löschen, so das keiner mehr rankommt und nicht nur ausblenden oder so. Es wäre toll wenn du denn den Kommentar in der neuen Version der Datei durch den in der ersten Version ersetzen könntest. Ganz Herzlichen Dank im Voraus!!! Ich bin da leider echt hilflos! P.S.: Könntest du vielleicht auch darauf hinarbeiten, das WikiCommons in Zukunft überhaupt keine Meta-Daten mehr übernimmt!? Es diesen Daten ist eine Menge ableitbar. Z.B. die Kameramarke gibt Hinweise auf des Vermögen und wenn man GPS-Koordinaten in der Exif hat und zu Hause ein Foto für Wiki gemacht hat, weiß auch gleich jeder wo diese Kamera abzuholen ist usw.

Please read the talk file.

Regards, JHistory • talk 21:43, 20 February 2016 (UTC)

Please read the discription. Why I should rename an image, as long the discription still say it different? The discription is the important place, not the name. Marcus Cyron (talk) 22:47, 20 February 2016 (UTC) PS: undo a second time an adminstrative descission, you will get a problem.

Sory, but this woman is not Mania Shohat. I'm amazed that you believe a very poor and funy site, but do not believe to your friend and Ph.D of history here on our Commons. JHistory • talk 23:43, 20 February 2016 (UTC)

You don't get it. You try to change the unimportant title of a file instead of the really iportant discription. this is stupidity. I belive in nothing - only in the sillyness of people. Marcus Cyron (talk) 10:22, 21 February 2016 (UTC)

Dear Marcus Cyron,

I'm asking you directly to read to the historical claim that I brought in the talk page of the file.

Can not read the article history? - Can you find another friend to help you read it?

Title of picture can not be so wrong.

This is not Manya Shochat, but unknown woman we do not know who she is (all detailed in the academic article).

But the saddest thing - when you delete again and again the rename-templte, so you do not allow our community to discuss the name of the file. I am asking that you return the templten and allow discussion on the (erroneous) name of this file. I understand your dedication, but I need to present to the community a relevant historical information.

Waiting for your reply.

Thanks in advance.

Greetings, JHistory • talk 14:55, 21 February 2016 (UTC)

Please go away, if you are not willing to talk to me in a human mannor - and as long you are not interested in reading and understanding what I have written. Marcus Cyron (talk) 20:31, 21 February 2016 (UTC)

I'm talking to you with courtesy, with politeness and with real concern to Commons.

Now, if you do not care. I'm going to return the template, and open - in that step - Community Discussion to change the name of the file, because the current name is a big mistake, According to the academic literature.

I do appreciate your contributions.

Thank you.

Deletion request

Hello. I am sorry but I think this came too quickly. FIles by Bedřich Dlouhý and Jan Špláchal seem to have permission confirmed already.

Please wait. --Mates (talk) 00:38, 21 February 2016 (UTC)

"Wait" - this is one of the most important things. This need to be in the images since the upload. Or there comes a deletion request. This is really simple. We can not guess in such cases. We need to know. Marcus Cyron (talk) 10:24, 21 February 2016 (UTC)

Baut wieder viel Quatsch und lädt von ihm selbst verfälschte DDR-Verkehrszeichen unter Zuhilfenahme meiner Daten auf Commons hoch. Jermboy27 hat international eine lange Quarulantenliste, wobei es fast immer um Verkehrszeichen geht. z.B: englische WP: [2] oder auf Commons: [3]. Bitte lösch doch seine neuesten Machwerke.

Ich danke Euch! Diese Querschüsse in der WP/WC machen wirklich Pickel. Erst der Ärger im Limesprojekt und dann dieses Verkehrszeichendilemma hier und in der WP. Ich reagiere da bei vielen manchmal (!) sogar harmlosen oder richtigen Eingriffen in manchen meiner Artikel fast allergisch. Bin ja, wie ihr wißt, eigentlich ein sehr ruhiger Vertreter. Aber das zehrt dann schon irgendwie. Und kostet unendlich Energie. Wie viele Stunden, inzwischen sicher zusammengenommen viele Wochen, habe ich für diese sinnfreien Aktionen aufgebracht. Oft an Tagen, an denen ich vorhatte wieder einen Artikel zu starten oder auszubauen. Sinnlose Zeitvergeudung. Na ja. Ihr kennt das ja sicher noch besser. Dieser Jermboy agiert ja international. Ich möchte nicht wissen, wie viele verfälschte Verkehrszeichen in den verschiedenen Artikeln weltweit eingebaut sind. In Deutschland blieb er ja lange ungeschoren. Und bis gestern hatte er da drei(!) offene Konten. Es ist wirklich so, daß ich ihn in der deutschen WP - zumindest vorübergehend - immer wieder zur Strecke bringe, weil ich eben diesen ganzen deutschen Verkehrszeichenmist mache und er mir dadurch nicht durchgeht. Wenn ich aber daran denke, daß in unendlich vielen Artikeln immer wieder die gleichen Saboteure unbemerkt Veränderungen vornehmen, dann wird einem fast bange ob der Gesamtqualität.

I had read the discription. Because of that I opposed your request. Und now you had undone two times administrative descissions. I think, one time more and you face bigger problems. Maybe you should discuss first - and then act, instead of such a behaviour. You are maybe right. But how you would like to show it with such mannors? Marcus Cyron (talk) 21:46, 3 March 2016 (UTC)

Dear Marcus Cyron,

First, I thank you and greatly appreciate the patience and the attention.

Secondly, I am surprised about of friends: I was talking about the subject a month ago, and I got ignored. We have to talk at the Talk-page of the file - not in Summary (of edit), as happened unfortunately 2 times: once you and once another member - I waited for an answer in איק Talk-page of the file - but nothing happened - and when I actually asked to change the mistake - I got two deletions. Why friends do not you came to Talk-page to talk to me?

Third, a mistake was made with the title of this file - now is the time to fix everything. After all, we do not want mistakes in our Commons .

What do you suggest we do now? JHistory • talk 22:25, 3 March 2016 (UTC)

Picture Renaming

Excuse me sir. The description and name of the following picture is wrong. Islamia college is the name of another university adjacent to Peshawar university.

Mantra: The important thing is not the name. The important thing is the discription. There must be written the correct thing first. A renaming is useless without a correct siscription. At first, people who really know abou the things need to correct the discriptions, then the categories and as last thing comes the renaming. Marcus Cyron (talk) 14:20, 4 March 2016 (UTC)

Regarding this: Look, someone else already uploaded 149 of these with perfectly consistent names -- even if you don't like them.

Renaming of File:China_Zhenjiang_Runzhou.png

I'm practically the only person who draw locator maps for chinese administrative units. My locator maps are used in hundreds of articles with a standard algorithm of constructing map's names. Yesterday I made a small misprint in naming of one of new maps and asked for renaming according to File renaming guideline #1: "At the original uploader's request". Unfortunately person who renamed a file also decided to "improve" the name. I asked for renaming again, according to my original asking (because this "improved" name doesn't match existed links and traditions), but now it was you who rejected it with the label "is definetly better for usage". As far as I know, you are not a person who use such maps ever. Please, rename the file according to _my_ request (according to request of a person, who REALLY use it) without any additional "better improving". --Slb nsk (talk) 00:22, 5 May 2016 (UTC)

I will not rename this. In my eyes, your System is terrible. Maybe the cause, why only you use these maps. If an other administrators think, you are right, this is fine for me. But I can't change a better thing back to a worse. Marcus Cyron (talk) 00:25, 5 May 2016 (UTC)

File:Isabella Gonzaga di Novellara.JPG

Yo my note is regarding the above image. The image is clearly a cropped version of a slightly larger painting of Anne Marie d'Orléans. Look in Anne Marie's category if you don't believe me. Hence my requesting a move. But then some fool blocked me. The petulance of some people on this part of the internet will never cease to amaze and infuriate me. But yes. Move that image please.

Could you please explain exactly, what do you want. Marcus Cyron (talk) 12:05, 18 June 2016 (UTC)

You did not need to guess, you just should have read the image description page properly. It clearly refered to the OTRS ticket with the appropriate template and also the license review was clearly mentioned. You just had to look better. I find your response alarming, because apparently you did not take the effort to have a closer look at your erroneous action before you responded here. And there is the fact that you blocked a good faith user based on your own misunderstanding and without even trying to talk first. This is not the behaviour we would expect from an administrator. Please review your actions and try to improve yourself. Jcb (talk) 14:22, 18 June 2016 (UTC)

Can you or Jcb please recheck File:Jacqueline at Gillette Mach3 India Gaming Championship 2010-2.jpg and undelete if eligible?

Greetings. I saw that you declined my move to the above picture and thought I'd say I made a mistake regarding the date I misread the circa 1860 entirely. Lastly, it is used on the English Wikipedia (on Mary Victoria's husband's article) and the image is captioned with "shortly after their marriage" is used, implying it was during the years of 1869-80.

Re:File:Governor-General Pierre Ryckmans.jpg

Hi Marcus Cyron,

First of all, excuse me because I didn't want to make what you decline. I had a fail because in this case I didn't check the history of the files that you have indicated to me. I make the changes because I don't see your decision. I understand the case that you have described and I understand that my decision was erroneous. I just want you to know that if I had see your edit, I wouldn't make the move, because I had understood that another person thinks that it isn't correct.

On the other hand, you can request the revocation of my file mover rights, if you think that I do so much damage and it damage is unrepairable, request it. My intention was not that you seem to think. I have been in the same situation that you are now: I have declined a requests but the user has undo my edition and then another file mover has accept the request. What can I do? I am not going to talk with the file mover that accept the request, perhaps he/she interpreted that the request was correct. In our case, I understand that I was wrong.

Leaving aside the controversy over my right to move files, how can I help you to solve my error? I would like to help you and do everything what I can.

Once again, excuse me for the inconvenience.

Regards, Ivanhercaz | Discusión 13:54, 24 October 2016 (UTC)

P. S. I am not going to move any other file until I confirm that my right is not going to be in discussion, thus there will be no more problems.

We don't need to talk about your rights - but you need to be more careful. Marcus Cyron (talk) 14:42, 24 October 2016 (UTC)

@Ivanhercaz and @Marcus Cyron please see the discussion. I believe I have the necessary clarification in terms of copyright. -Indy beetle (talk) 00:09, 25 October 2016 (UTC)

Also concerning the moves, I would have preferred to have changed the name of the conflicting file on Wikipedia yes, but I saw no "move" or "request move" option which was available on Wikimedia Commons. As the creator of the file, I do also reserve the right to request that a file name be moved (or so I thought). And I don't see what's wrong with renaming a file so that it is more specific. -Indy beetle (talk) 00:14, 25 October 2016 (UTC)

You are not the creator of the file - you are the uploader. And even as creator, you would not can do everything. What ever - I made an administrative descission. You could have talked to me or other Admins. But what you made was undo my descission. This is nothing more or less than Anarchy. So this project can't work.

Terminus technicus für antike Vasen

Hallo, Marcus, da Du der Experte bist und insbesondere, da es auch 2 von dir hochgeladene Dateien betrifft, eine Frage: Es gibt in Commons drei Datei- und eine Kategoriebeschreibung, wo innerhalb des Templates {{Technique}} das englische Wort reserving vorkommt. Mich interessiert nun, wie das sinnvoll ins Deutsche zu übersetzen ist oder ob das schon im Englischen so keinen Sinn ergibt und was dann gemeint gewesen sein könnte? Die Kategorie mit Beschreibung ist Louvre E 658, der entsprechende Eintrag stammt von Naamar; deine zwei Dateien sind East greek oinochoe in the Wild goat style at the Antikensammlung Berlin.jpg – Einfügung von Naamar – und East greek oinochoe in the Wild goat style at the Antikensammlung Berlin 2.jpg – hier hast Du das Template mit Parametern selbst eingefügt (mutmaßlich einfach kopiert?); die dritte Datei ist Vroulia cup Louvre A331.jpg, die Template-Einfügung ist wieder von Naamar, hier eindeutig mit zusätzlichem Fehler (incising gibt’s nicht, nur incised, das aber als Adjektiv). — Speravir_Talk – 14:44, 26 October 2016 (UTC)

Du hast recht - ich habe das einfach kopiert. Deine Frage ist wirklich gut. Eigentlich halte ich das in der Form für untauglich, kenne den Begriff so auch nicht aus englischer Literatur. Die zu beschreibende Technik ist gar nicht so einfach zu beschreiben. Die Bemalung erfolgt durch noch feiner geschlämmten Ton (fälschlich als "Firnis" bezeichnet). Zumindest im Falle von Schwarz auf Rot. Dann gibt es aber noch weitere Bemalungen in Erdfarben. Das ist keine Keramik. Aber das wird kombiniert. "Reserve" kann so unterschiedlich interpretiert werden. Sowohl als auftragen, als aber auch als "aussparen". Ersteres wäre im schwarzfigurigen Stil richtig, aber nicht im rotfigurigen, da würde letzteres greifen. Vielleicht sollten wir hier noch eine weitere Meinung einholen. @Tusculum: . Marcus Cyron (talk) 14:49, 28 October 2016 (UTC)

Möchte man es auf ein Wort reduzieren, bietet sich, zumal hier der technische Aspekt gemeint ist, Aussparungstechnik an. Das ist der deutsche terminus technicus. Reserving ist allerdings auch eher selten, gebräuchlicher in reserve oder reservation. Gilt aber in der Tat nur für die rotfigurige Vasenmalerei. Beste Grüße, --Tusculum (talk) 16:02, 28 October 2016 (UTC)

Danke, Marcus und Tusculum. Klingt so, als könnte das einen interessanten Wiki-Artikel abgeben. :-) Wenn man (ich) das nun ins englische Sub-Template einträgt, welche der englischen Bzeichnungen ist denn die häufigere? Ihr kennt doch hoffentlich englischsprachige Experten, die man da fragen kann.

Nur zur Klärung: Eintragen kann man durchaus beide Formen, aber wie bei anderen Wörtern sollte dann sinnvollerweise nur eine davon auch auf den Seiten ausgegeben werden. Als Beispiel mal schwarzfigurige Keramik: Innerhalb der Vorlage kann man sogar drei Varianten eintragen: black-figure, black-figure potteryoder black-figure ceramic; in der Ausgabe erscheint aber auf jeden Fall black-figure ceramic inklusve der Verlinkung.

Carpets from Azerbaijan

Hi Marcus Cyron. There are two files of carpets made in Azerbaijan. This[5] and this[6]. The main sources say that the place of origin of both of them is Azerbaijan, not Armenia[7][8]. That is why I suggested to rename these files and made some edits to the description. But user Vahram Mekhitarian continuous to falsificate the place of origin pushing "Armenian" and trying to rename files[9][10][11][12]. Could you please as an administrator rename them back to the true name and stop user Vahram Mekhitarian from reverting the false information about these carpets from Azerbaijan. --Interfase (talk) 04:55, 28 October 2016 (UTC)

Dear Marcus, until 1920 not have historical references to the territory under the name of Azerbaijan. It was created in the period of the Soviet Union in 1920. These photos [13], [14] of carpets the period of 17-19 century, can not be the name of Azerbaijan. The true origin and type of these carpets are described in an article "Caucasian Carpets in the Victoria & Albert Museum, by Donald King, Michael Franses & Robert Pinner, Hali magazine, Jul 22, 2013, pp. 95-115". Specifically, there is indicated Karabakh territory. Of course, no mention of Azerbaijan in this article does not exist, and renaming files is an attempt to falsify the history of the region. Vahram Mekhitarian (talk) 07:57, 28 October 2016 (UTC)

In the book the carpet T84-1909 is described in the page 97-98 and there is nothing "Armenian" about it. So as I see your renaming files is an attempt to falsify the history. And the name Azerbaijan was used for these territories even before 1920. See e. g. this map of the 19th c. But here we don't discuss the history of Azerbaijan. We speak about these carpets. And the website of the Museum says that the place of origin of them is Azerbaijan, not Armenia. --Interfase (talk) 08:48, 28 October 2016 (UTC)

This map is not a WP:IRS and not used in Wikipedia articles. See discussion at Карта с названием Азербайджан:

• ОРИССом является самостоятельное толкование первичных источников по истории. Это толкование (вполне может быть и верное) должны делать вторичные научные АИ. То есть это АИ должны указывать на эту карту, подтверждая то, к каким территориям в ту эпоху применялся термин "Азербайджан". Вы прекрасно понимаете, что ученым известно об этой карте. Они упоминают ее? Как-то ее оценивают? Ссылаются на нее? Или она не упоминается в АИ? Именно тогда, когда мы сами за ученых делаем их работу и есть ОРИСС. Bogomolov.PL 19:09, 7 февраля 2014 (UTC)
• А никто и не собирается толковать карту и писать к каким территориям применяется термин «Азербайджан» на карте. Я предлагаю лишь представлять абсолютно тривиальную информацию. То, что эта карта 19 века — факт, то, что на ней написано «Азербайджан» — абсолютно тривиальный факт. Это то я и предлагаю отразить в статье. --Interfase 19:13, 7 февраля 2014 (UTC)
• Нетривиален сам выбор карты: из великого множества карт, на которых нет надписи "Азербайджан" для территорий к северу от Аракса, выбрана единственная с такой надписью. Это явное нарушение ВП:ВЕС, ибо там сказано:

внимание, уделяемое изложению того или иного мнения, должно соответствовать тому, насколько распространённым это мнение является. При сопоставлении различных точек зрения не следует преподносить мнение меньшинства в таком же объёме или так же подробно, как мнение, пользующееся большей популярностью, а совершенно маргинальные представления можно и вовсе не упоминать.

Vahram Mekhitarian (talk) 11:26, 28 October 2016 (UTC)

That discussion was about using the map in the article. It doesn't say that the map is wrong. Actually it shows that you are wrong saying that carpets of the period of 17-19 century can not be the name of Azerbaijan. As we can see, they can. There are also another sources confirming that the name Azerbaijan was used for these territories before 1920. For example Encyclopaedia of Islam (1986, Vol. I., P. 191) tells that according to Yakut (13th century) Adharbaydjan extended down to Bardha’a. "A History of Qarabagh: An Annotated Translation of Mirza Jamal Javanshir Qarabaghi’s Tarikh-e Qarabagh" (Mazda Publishers, 1994, p. XV) also confirms that the Safavids included some of the lands north of the Arax river (modern territory of Azerbaijan Republic) as part of the province of Azerbaijan. But as I said we don't discuss here the history of the name of Azerbaijan, we discuss these particular carpets. The website of the museum says that they are from Azerbaijan. The article of Donald King also confirms that. But you continue to add false information about Armenian origin to the article. Why do yoy do that? --Interfase (talk) 12:39, 28 October 2016 (UTC)

Even if these carpets are from Karabakh region, let's see what the book says about them:

Thus, our regional treatment is quite similar to that of Kerimov who has classified the carpets of Russian Azerbaijan into the Genje-Kazak, Kuba-Shirva and Karabagh regions. (p. 97)

As we can see according to the book the place of origin of Karabagh carpets is also Azerbaijan. And saying "no mention of Azerbaijan in this article does not exist" Vahram Mekhitarian says untrue. --Interfase (talk) 08:56, 28 October 2016 (UTC)

Marcus, I think user Vahram Mekhitarian needs to be warned. Even when I showed him what the sources says about these carpets he continuos his edit warring and returning false descriptions[15][16]. This must be stopped. --Interfase (talk) 09:34, 28 October 2016 (UTC)

I changed it back to the Name before the renaming starts. I can't be the judge in this case, I don't know enough about this field. I have to trust the users, but it seems, this case is a bit compilcates. You must come to a point from both sites - or both discription will be used and the name then must be neutral. What we don't need is a Wikipedia war between Armenia and Azerbaijan. Please try to come together and don't try to see those things with a national view. Marcus Cyron (talk) 14:41, 28 October 2016 (UTC)

I just suggest to follow the sources that describes the carpets. The source is a website of the Museum where these carpets are located. And the Museum doesn't describe these carets like "Armenian". It clearly says that the place of origin is Azerbaijan. But user Vahram Mekhitarian doesn't want to listen me and doesn't want to read the source. How can I come with him to the one point if he tries to add false information to the files? --Interfase (talk) 16:31, 28 October 2016 (UTC)

File:Rockstar London logo.svg

Hello Marcus Cyron, very recently you helped me move File:Rockstar Games logo.svg to the same page with the "L" in Logo capitalized to align it with other logos related to Rockstar Games subsidiaries. Unfortunately, the same issue is currently present with File:Rockstar London logo.svg, the problem is, though, that my requests for renaming have been declined both times, wherefore I wondered if you could move it manually with the same reasoning as with the Rockstar Games Logo.

File:7571vik Gdańsk, układ urbanistyczny. Foto Barbara Maliszewska.jpg

Der bisherige Name ist sehr irreführend. "Gdańsk, układ urbanistyczny" ist hier bezogen auf "gesamtes Stadbild der Stadt Gdańsk in historischen Grenzen ... d.h. innerhalb der mittelälterlichen und modernen Stadtbefestigungen". Also, es sollte nur für Luftperspektiven oder gesamtansichten der "Stadbildes / Urban Area" benutzt werden. Leider hat die Userin "Barbara Maliszewska" sich nicht die Mühe gegeben konkrete Bilder richtig zu beschreiben. Der Verdacht liegt nahe das Sie einfach alle Ihre fotos in die Kategorie "WLM" packen wollte. In diesem konkretem Fall haben wir mit einem der bekannten Wahrzeichen der Stadt Gdańsk zu tun, dass übrigens sowohl in altem wie in neuem "Cultural heritage register / Register zabytków miasta Gdańsk" sein eigenen Platz hat. Zusätzlich handelt sich hier um die ziemlich selten fotografierte Ansicht von der "Szeroka Strasse / Ulica Szeroka" (siehe bitte hauptkategorie - fast alle Fotos kommen von der Flussperspektive ("Motława"). Bei der Userin treten sehr, sehr oft falsche "ID-Bezeichnungen des Heritage Registers" und falsche teilweise sehr irreführende Beschreibungen. Grüsse. 85.176.10.161 18:05, 7 November 2016 (UTC)

Dennoch ist es einfach schlechter Stil, etwa den Namen der Fotografin aus dem Titel zu entfernen. Viele Fotografen machen das, um die Nachnutzung der Bilder verfolgen zu können. Ein legitimes Ansinnen. Es ist respektlos und undankbar ihnen gegenüber, wenn man das einfach mal so entfernt. Marcus Cyron (talk) 19:51, 7 November 2016 (UTC)

Thank you for your consideration. Ericmachmer (talk) 19:50, 8 December 2016 (UTC)

Hi, this was not easy to see. Could you please send an Email to the OTRS, where you write this?! Then the image can become undeleted. Marcus Cyron (talk) 20:04, 8 December 2016 (UTC)

Hi

It seems that you have been abused by Pannam2014 (who is blocked for a full year since yesterday). The so called "File:Variant flag of Algeria (1962).svg" is not a variant of the Algerian flag, it is actually the Algerian flag. Can I ask you to undo your action or redirect both "File:Variant flag of Algeria (1962).svg" and "File:Flag of Algeria (1958-1962).svg" to "File:Flag of Algeria.svg". Thanks! :-). --Houmouvazine (talk) 19:45, 11 December 2016 (UTC)

Not my field, I have to trust other users here. If you know this better, I would prefer, you would do the correctios. As long as I understand correct, it's not a problem of rnaming, only of redirects :) Marcus Cyron (talk) 19:53, 11 December 2016 (UTC)

Εκδήλωση βράβευσης Wiki Loves Monuments στην Ελλάδα

Το Wikimedia User Group Greece, διοργανωτής της πρώτης διεξαγωγής του Ελληνικού σκέλους του διεθνούς φωτογραφικού διαγωνισμού Wiki Loves Monuments 2016, οργανώνει παρουσίαση των αποτελεσμάτων και βράβευση των νικητών. Η εκδήλωση θα πραγματοποιηθεί το Σαββάτο 17 Δεκεμβρίου και ώρα 17:30, στο Innovathens.

Η εκδήλωση θα πλαισιωθεί από σύντομες παρουσιάσεις για την Wikipedia και τους σχετιζόμενους ιστοτόπους και τη χρήση εικόνων και άλλων πολυμέσων στις σελίδες της, και για την εγκυκλοπαιδική κάλυψη της πολιτιστικής κληρονομιάς της Ελλάδας σε αυτή.

Παράλληλα σας ενημερώνουμε ότι έχουν ανακοινωθεί από τη κριτική επιτροπή οι νικητές του διεθνούς σκέλους: http://www.wikilovesmonuments.org/winners-2016/ Ανάμεσά στις καταπληκτικές φωτογραφίες που αναδείχθηκαν εκεί, δυστυχώς δεν βρίσκονται και κάποιες από τις επίσης καταπληκτικές φωτογραφίες από την Ελλάδα.

Όπως και αν έχει, σας περιμένουμε κοντά μας να γιορτάσουμε, να συζητήσουμε για την φωτογραφία, για την πολιτιστική κληρονομιά, για τον διαγωνισμό που τελείωσε, και να ακούσουμε τις προτάσεις σας για τους επόμενους διαγωνισμούς.

Renamings

Hi Marcus Cyron! I'm just wondering: why are you changing the generic names mentioned in image titles into species names, even when the genus is monospecific? In that case there can be no ambiguity. It all seems a waste of time and space. Are you doing this just on the odd chance a second species is named in the genus?

Greetings,--MWAK (talk) 17:25, 18 December 2016 (UTC)

I have renamed some images per request. I don't know about this field, I have to trust the persons requests. Marcus Cyron (talk) 18:01, 18 December 2016 (UTC)

I see. Thank you for your swift answer!--MWAK (talk) 16:15, 19 December 2016 (UTC)

If this was wrong, it's always not that nice :(. Marcus Cyron (talk) 20:03, 19 December 2016 (UTC)

Ähnliches gilt für diese und diese Umbenennungen. Die alten Dateinamen erfüllen kein Umbenennungskriterium, denn sie sind weder irreführend noch enthalten sie Fehler. Dateinamen sollen nicht Bildebschreibungen ersetzen. Ob es sich um ein Fossilexemplar, eine Skelettrekonstruktion (zeichnerisch oder in 3D) oder um eine Lebendrekonstruktion handelt, ist in der Bildbeschreibung anzugeben. Bemerkenswerterweise zeigen die beiden Bilder, die nun den Zusatz „fossil“ haben, jeweils etwas anderes. Während das Anchiornis-Bild tatsächlich ein Fossil in annäherndem Fundzustand zeigt, ist auf dem Puijila-Bild eine 3D-Skelettrekonstruktion zu sehen, d.h. es zeigt nicht den Fundzustand (es könnte sich auch um eine „composite reconstruction“ handeln, d.h. hier könnten Knochen verschiedener Individuen für die Rekonstruktion verwendet worden sein, einige Knochen können auch komplette Nachbildungen sein). Ich bitte, weitere Umbenennungsanfragen dieses Benutzers sehr kritisch zu prüfen und ähnlich gelagerte Anfragen wie die beiden o.g. nicht umzusetzen. --Gretarsson (talk) 10:07, 2 January 2017 (UTC)

Wenn du das als Fachmann so sagst, werde ich das auch so umsetzen. Ansonsten sind das eben genau die Fälle, die plausibel erscheinen. Man muß sich da einfach verlassen. Marcus Cyron (talk) 14:09, 2 January 2017 (UTC)

COM:RENAME criterium #4

I noticed that you renamed File:Tombstone Maxim Zetkin.jpg to File:Berlin Friedrichsfelde Zentralfriedhof, Pergolenweg - Zetkin, Maxim.jpg, citing rename reason #4. Please reread that reason, especially the footnote. Reason #4 is limited to a very specific set of circumstances that this file clearly did not fulfill. Sebari – aka Srittau (talk) 13:16, 14 January 2017 (UTC)

And you should better understand the essence of what we're here doing instead of seeing this in this way, a way nobody here helps. The new name is clearly the better one. Because of that, the renaming is correct. And at the end it is not of importance, which criterea are cited. We are not here to rule, we are here to help! Marcus Cyron (talk) 13:22, 14 January 2017 (UTC)

COM:RENAME is an official guideline. There are reasons for this guideline to be in place and it has been decided and changed according to a community process. Are you saying that you are ignoring community consensus, because you think you know better? Sebari – aka Srittau (talk) 13:32, 14 January 2017 (UTC)

My picture

Dear Marcus, the changes you operated on the picture File:Vincenzo Vela (1820-1891) La preghiera del mattino, particolare (marmo, 1846).jpg is not reflecting the real colour of marble which is a yellowish marble and not a pure white colour as looks now. --Paolobon140 (talk) 22:06, 15 January 2017 (UTC)

But the original file shows more smog than image. I can't belive, that this should be more accurate. But I will not argue about it. Marcus Cyron (talk) 22:08, 15 January 2017 (UTC)

You mean you cannot believe what im stating? The tones you gave to the picture are fake and you can notice it also in the other parts of the pic, like curtains. Marble is not always white and i canot believe there might be "smog" in a museum room. As you are not arguingi, can you please revert my picture to its original tones?--Paolobon140 (talk) 10:19, 16 January 2017 (UTC)

Complaint about a Commons Administrator

Hi. Working on File talk:Turk official teasing Armenian starved children by showing bread, 1915 (Collection of St. Lazar Mkhitarian Congregation).jpg, I noticed this comment by an admin at the page history. It is unacceptable for admins to take parts in discussions while performing administrative duty at the same time. Indeed it is unacceptable for an admin to make this kind of comments anytime and anywhere in Commons. As you are the involved admin, I am first taking the case to yourself to listen to your words. Later most probably (if you don't apologize publicly and promise not to repeat this wrong attitude) I will take the case to other admins. Regards. --E4024 (talk) 08:24, 16 January 2017 (UTC)

if you don't apologize publicly and promise not to repeat this wrong attitude - are you kidding me? We are not an Autocracity, where people can come this way. Go youre way. On such a level I don't wanna talk. And ofcourse Admins need to say why they do an descission. It's not only me who clearly sees you national blended view on these things. Marcus Cyron (talk) 07:29, 24 January 2017 (UTC)

This is the best answer you came with, after eight days? Throwing a personal accusation on someone who chose to communicate with you and not go directly to complain about your behaviour... I don't want to talk in "such a level", before you. Go look at the mirror and try to see yourself. I hope you like what you see. --E4024 (talk) 08:26, 25 January 2017 (UTC)

Review an image.

Hi! I want help from you, two days ago, I've uploaded a cropped image from an image which is free on Flickr by CC-BY-2.0 license. It's actually a signature, but it's cropped from that free image.

Flickr reviewer bot reviewed it and added a comment saying it can't predict the copyright information and asked for admin review.

I saw you are an active admin in the Wikimedia Commons. Can you review this file: File:Upsign.jpg. — Preceding unsigned comment was added by 117.227.168.229 (talk) 17:02, 23 January 2017 (UTC)

Hi

Hi, I'm coming here to ask you for undoing that edition of yours. That user was created only to request that renaming, but the explanation given is not right at all: as you can see there, we're talking about the same shield, and that user is wrong in his petition. Thank you for your attention, and regards. Kordas (sínome!) 00:22, 3 February 2017 (UTC)

Hi, when you're dicussion is done, please start a new request. In these fields we have to trust the requests. Marcus Cyron (talk) 08:58, 3 February 2017 (UTC)

There was no discussion at all for that change. You should check if the petition is true before simply doing it. And I already started a new request. Thank you. Kordas (sínome!) 09:43, 3 February 2017 (UTC)

Sorry, but this is nonsense. We have to trust such requests. We can not ask goverments if such things are true. And ofcourse is there not for every change a long discussion. How a project like Commons shouls work then? Marcus Cyron (talk) 09:46, 3 February 2017 (UTC)

Nonsense? Please watch your language if you are talking to me. You have to check if that user is telling the truth and not simply buying it, go to the Ayuntamiento page and check that. But don't worry, it is worthless talking to you. Bye. Kordas (sínome!) 09:51, 3 February 2017 (UTC)

File:Прибутковий будинок Збіґнєва Левинського.jpg

Hi,

Can you please undo your rename of this file ? The normative spelling of this name in Ukrainian is Збігнев (genitive Збігнева), thus the original spelling was the correct one. While some linguists indeed propose to write Збіґнєв instead of Збігнев, I think this should not be imposed unless it is uploader's choice. Thanks — NickK (talk) 14:12, 6 February 2017 (UTC)

Dubious renaming

Why do you rename files from old city name to new city name like this? It is not obvious error. When photo was taken, the city have old name, so this photo name was correct. Please do not rename other Kirovohrad-related files and files from other enamed cities.--Anatoliy (talk) 20:12, 6 February 2017 (UTC)

In that case, it should have nowadays names of that cities in brackets for better understanding.--Viiictorrr (talk) 21:53, 6 February 2017 (UTC)

You may have them in file descriptions.--Anatoliy (talk) 21:55, 6 February 2017 (UTC)

I see it the same way. The images are not of historical importance, they are actual stuff. So the renaming is the better descission. Marcus Cyron (talk) 21:56, 6 February 2017 (UTC)

But how they fall under COM:FR? Old name of city (if it is correct) is not obvious error.--Anatoliy (talk) 22:00, 6 February 2017 (UTC)

+ Anatoliy & Viiictorrr: It looks like a large-scale problem. Perhaps we should to create a Request for Comment. --sasha (krassotkin) 09:25, 7 February 2017 (UTC)

Und kannst du mir den Beweggrund bei dieser Umbenennung erklären? --Albinfo (talk) 20:45, 19 February 2017 (UTC)

Für Beweggründe sind die Antragsteller zuständig. Marcus Cyron (talk) 20:56, 19 February 2017 (UTC)

Wenn der Antragsteller drei unzulässige Gründe nennt ("wrong year" obwohl richtiges Jahr, "no need for author to be in the title" obwohl sehr gebräuchlich in Commons und "Criterion 10" das es nicht gibt), gehe ich eigentlich davon aus, dass der auf Kriterium 3 verweisende Admin die Umbenennung nicht ohne guten Grund vornimmt.

Ich gehe davon aus, dass du mit Verweis auf Kriterium 3 das Datum ("correct incorrect dates") gemeint hast. In diesem Fall war aber "Gusht 2016" das Datum der Aufnahme gemäss Bildbeschreibung und Metadaten – ich kann also keinen Fehler erkennen. Und ausserdem verstehe ich das Kriterium 3 so, dass das Datum korrigiert werden sollte, und nicht ein komplett neuer Dateiname kreiert werden soll (wie im Beispiel "File:Van Gogh portrait 1787.jpg", wo nur die erste 7 verändert wurde).

Ich frage einerseits nach, weil gemäss Commons:File renaming der Admin die Konformität des Antrags überprüfen sollte und ich hier keine Konformität erkennen kann.

Und andererseits scheinen hier immer wieder – trotz der Vielsprachigkeit von Commons – Dateinamen mit albanischem Text durch Dateinamen mit slawischen Wörtern ersetzt zu werden (anderes Beispiel: [17]). Ausser der Sprache kann ich in diesem Fall keinen Beweggrund für die Umbenennung erkennen … Und ich bin erneut erstaunt, dass das einfach durchgewunken wird. --Albinfo (talk) 23:45, 19 February 2017 (UTC)

And what reason to renaming 'gerb' to 'herb'? both words are not English, so here is not obvious error, so it falls under p.1 Commons:File_renaming#Which_files_should_not_be_renamed?. And Commons is multilingualproject, renaming from one language to other language only because wrong language is forbidden.--Anatoliy (talk) 19:09, 2 March 2017 (UTC)

You're welcome - but do you really think for one small action a barnstar is requiered? You had more work with this than I with the renaming ;). But I like the gestue. Marcus Cyron (talk) 00:14, 6 March 2017 (UTC)

I've just been very frustrated recently with people refusing to rename files to better harmonise Category:NASA Photojournal that I've become really appreciative of people who actually do help clean up and harmonize the filenames. This was my best way to show my appreciation - to create a barnstar to be awarded to those who help positively contribute to the category, which is certainly not just limited to people helping make the filenames better, but making all kinds of other positive contributions, too. :) Philip Terry Graham 03:04, 6 March 2017 (UTC)

Just a comment

Thanks for moving this file for me. [18] Not to seem ungrateful, though, I would have preferred if you'd used the specific filename I'd requested, for consistency with other related files. I'm not saying it's worth doing over now, though. EEng (talk) 00:03, 11 April 2017 (UTC)

I thought, it's for the usability the better version. Names with words with spaces between and words without are terrible to use and read. But if you really want to have this for consistency, I move it to the other name. First I would ask you to think about, if a renaming of the other files maybe would be a better solution. Then there would be the consistency paired with usability. Marcus Cyron (talk) 00:16, 11 April 2017 (UTC)

As with program identifiers, 100 people will give you 101 theories for how to form file names, and it's inappropriate for you to impose your idea of what's usable on others. Please just change it to what I requested, and I strongly suggest that in the future, as long as the requested name isn't inappropriate in some way, you not tamper with the names others request. EEng (talk) 00:22, 11 April 2017 (UTC)

Ganis Chasma

Hi Marcus, you rolled back my request for rename for files in the mentioned category with a two word explanation apparently ignoring the fact that in my request I put the link to the site of USGS (that is delegated by IAU for mantaining the list of the official denominations of features on celestial body) where is clearly listed that Ganis Chasma exists and Ganiki Chasma doesn't. Can you please either provide more concrete base for your rolling-back action or complete the rename process as originally requested. Thank you. --Ysogo (talk) 19:19, 5 May 2017 (UTC)

The place of importance for changes is the discription text. Not the name of the file. As long the discription is not changed, it makes absolutely no sense, to rename a file. Why this is so hard to understand? The name is not really of importance! But there's no need to change a name against the discription. When you do it correct, nobody will have a problem with a renaming request. Marcus Cyron (talk) 19:29, 5 May 2017 (UTC)

Description text changed. Please rename files. Regards.--Ysogo (talk) 20:56, 5 May 2017 (UTC)

Bad file

Hi! Marcus, can you please, delete this file, because it`s just a copy of Russian file (all the names are on Russian, but file is called, like it`s on Ukrainian). Thanks.--Viiictorrr (talk) 16:59, 8 June 2017 (UTC)

What is the original file adress? Marcus Cyron (talk) 17:38, 8 June 2017 (UTC)

I don`t know, maybe English, maybe Russian, but that file needs to be deleted. There is no Ukrainian.--Viiictorrr (talk) 19:29, 8 June 2017 (UTC)

Ah, now I get it. Could you please do it the regular way and do a request for deletion? Marcus Cyron (talk) 19:58, 8 June 2017 (UTC)

Done, Marcus.--Viiictorrr (talk) 20:31, 8 June 2017 (UTC)

Thanks. Deleted. It's always better to go the "official" way in such cases. Marcus Cyron (talk) 22:41, 8 June 2017 (UTC)

Lok-Umbenennungen

You are kidding me? [19] and file [20] ‎is so long and wrong names the files. --Wittondom (talk) 23:00, 8 June 2017 (UTC)

No Kidding - and your request were again declined by an other admin. And if you undo again an adminstrative descission, you will see the consequences. You can request such a descission in many ways - but you can't undo it. This would mean anarchy. Marcus Cyron (talk) 11:08, 9 June 2017 (UTC)

Some problem with file

Hi, Marcus. Can you please, look at the file and tell me, what`s the problem (don`t delete it right now). I translate it into Ukrainian, but there are some black sections. Do you know, what`s the problem (or, maybe some of your conversants know)?--Viiictorrr (talk) 16:18, 10 June 2017 (UTC)

Hi, sorry, I don't know about the making of maps :(. You better ask your question to better people in this field: Commons:Graphic Lab/Map workshop. Marcus Cyron (talk) 21:33, 10 June 2017 (UTC)

In that case, can you please cancel my deletion request? Maybe someone can help from the link, you gave.--Viiictorrr (talk) 10:44, 11 June 2017 (UTC)

Einkleidung der Olympiaathleten 2016, Zuordnung der Athleten

Hallo Marcus, als Du und DerHexer bei der Einkleidung der Olympiaathleten 2016 Fotos gemacht habt, gab es dabei Informationen für euch, welche Athleten ihr knipst, oder musstet ihr das selbst herausfinden? Konkret ist mir gestern aufgefallen, dass das Bild Einkleidung der deutschen Olympiamannschaft Rio 2016 Medientag Hannover 1075.jpg nur bei Rico Freimuth einkategorisiert ist, die zentral abgebildete Ahtletin (?) nicht. Sie ist leider nur von schräg hinten zu sehen, ich bin mir aber relativ sicher, dass es sich dabei um Tina Dietze handeln muss. Nur ist sie oder jemand anderes vom Kanusport auf keinem weiteren Bild der Serie zu entdecken. In ihrer Bilderkategorie gibt es aber ein paar Bilder, auf denen sie von der Seite oder soagar von sehr schräg hinten zu sehen ist, nur von der anderen Seite. — Speravir – 18:28, 13 August 2017 (UTC)

Hallo, es hing eine Liste öffentlich für die Journalisten aus, die aber nicht zu 100% korrekt war. Darum mussten wir vereinzelt rum rätseln und ein paar wenige Athleten haben wir auch nicht heraus bekommen. Es waren am Ende mehr da, als avesiert. Kanuten waren offiziell nicht da, es ist aber dennoch sehr gut möglich, daß sie es ist. Entweder kam sie außer der Reihe, oder Kanuten kamen nach dem offiziellen Termin. Wenn du dir sicher bist - dann dürfte das ein hinlänglich sicheres Indiz sein :). Marcus Cyron (talk) 20:17, 13 August 2017 (UTC)

Hmm, leider bin ich nicht vorher auf die Idee gekommen: Einerseits sieht sie wirklich so aus, vor allem, wenn man noch bemerkt, dass sie Ohrstecker trägt, wie man sie auf den anderen Bildern auch sieht, aber laut Posting vom 5. Juli 2016 auf Tina Dietzes Facebook-Seite hat sie sich schon am 4. Juli 2016 eingekleidet, ihr wart aber am 7. Juli da. Dann lasse ich lieber die Kategorisierung. — Speravir – 20:57, 13 August 2017 (UTC)

International trucks

Hi Marcus. For some time I have been worried that the various categories which should be named International Trucks are named International Harvester truck. It is quite wrong to add Harvester into the name and I plan to make this correction as I clean up all the sub-categories. Do you know why this extra word was added? Do you mind that i remove it?

Re: Urheberrechte

Hallo und vielen Dank zuerst einmal für die Hinweise. Ich versuche es lieber noch einmal hier, da du in deiner Disk sagst, du antwortest nur auf auf deiner eigenen Seite. Ich entschuldige mich für den Fehler beim Upload eines Gemäldes, dessen Rechteinhaber ich nicht bin. Das Bild war in einer anderen Wikipedia hochgeladen, so war ich in dem Glauben, ich könnte das nachtun und es auch bei Commons verfügbar machen. Zu dem "privaten" Bild der Stiftung: Ich habe die Erlaubnis, das Bild "Meinhard_Meuche-Mäker_mit_Sarah_Wagenknecht_2009.jpg" zu verwenden, weiß nur beim besten Willen nicht, wie man das auf der Informationsseite zu dem Bild hinterlegen soll und kann. Dass es sich bei dem Bild um ein privates handelt, ist eine Fehldeutung, damit wollte ich zum Ausdruck bringen, dass die Rechte bei der Stiftung liegen, diese mir aber die Erlaubnis für die Verwendung bei Commons gegeben hat. Konkrete Frage also: Wie kann ich dieses Bild, ohne dass ich gegen irgendwelche Regeln verstoße, erneut einstellen und ggf. eine Genehmigung hinterlegen? Wie hätte diese auszusehen? Ich bitte um Nachsicht, vieles ist in der ersten Zeit hier nicht einfach zu verstehen. Liebe Grüße Raumerfrischer (talk) 20:37, 1 September 2017 (UTC)

Hallo Raumerfrischer. Weil das alles nicht so einfach ist, erkläre ich es dir auch, so gut ich es eben kann. Und gerade Urheberrechte sind immer das größte aller Probleme mit denen wir hier zu kämpfen haben. Das bei weitem nicht mehr zeitgemäße 70-Jahre-post-mortem-Recht hemmt leider an vielen Ecken und Enden, aber da Recht nun einmal Recht ist müssen wir uns daran halten. Wie das für das Bild der Stiftung zu klären wäre, wird dort erklärt. Allerdings müsste die Stiftung, bzw. eigentlich der Fotograf, einer kompletten Freigabe, eben auch zu kommerzieller Nutzung, zustimmen. Zuletzt noch eine kleine Anmerkung zur Diskussion: der Text da oben bei mir meint, daß Diskussionen immer dort geführt werden sollten, wo sie begonnen wurden, damit sie nicht zerrissen werden und nachvollziehbar bleiben. Also eine Antwort bei dir wäre völlig OK gewesen. Und zum Abschluß der Hinweis: keine Panik. Selbst wenn die Bilder erst einmal gelöscht würden, ist das kein Beinbruch. Man kann sie, wenn die Genehmigungen da sind, problemlos wieder herstellen. Marcus Cyron (talk) 21:08, 1 September 2017 (UTC)

Please do not change filenames with official catalog numbers

Dear Marcus,

I saw you changed filenames in my recent upload. However, this filename was constructed in collaboration of the donor Ministry of Defense, to reflect
1 the catalog number - photos appearing on Commons in the order of the catalog. THIS IS NOT MEANINGLESS, you see? On the contrary.
2 the subject
This is the standard to curate institutional donations on Commons. Please do not destroy information in filenames and leave the order in the donation - it cost a lot of time to restore. Thank you! Hansmuller (talk) 08:03, 3 September 2017 (UTC)

PS. You also destroyed the date (1920-1940). I solved it as

File:NIMH - 2011 - 0022 - Aerial photograph of Amsterdam, Petroleumhaven, The Netherlands - 1920 - 1940.jpg

You addition of "Petroleumhaven" was ok. If you want to change filenames do it in the way i showed keeping the numerical order in the category by having the catalog number first. THEN we can see if files from the catalog are missing. Have a look at the catalog listing on Commons, you see the problem, thanks. Hansmuller (talk) 08:07, 3 September 2017 (UTC)

Dear Hansmuller. Information about the file don't depend in the file name. Informations depend in the file discription. It's alwyas a big problem, whem people think, Informations should be stored there. In future, with structured Commons, this will not longer work. You better think about a strategy, to change this. Marcus Cyron (talk) 10:56, 3 September 2017 (UTC)

Dear Marcus, thanks for the suggestion, however "Structured commons" will no cure a mess. But you miss the point: when a lot of files from an archive etc. are uploaded, we and the donor must be able to see at a glance where the catalogue numbers have gone. It is a mistake to think we have to go through all the descriptions of thousands of files, will you do that for us? It took days to construct the metadata and upload these files in logical order. It is the good custom on Commons of (other) large uploaders, i did not invent this standard. Examples: Category:Media from Atlas of Mutual Heritage, Category:Atlas de Wit 1698, Category:Images from the Special Collections of the University of Amsterdam (catnumber at the end, not efficient, but still there), Category:PD US Army catno at the end of the file name, Category:Media donated by Naturalis Biodiversity Center following the derivate images, Category:Images from the Tropenmuseum... Without the catalogue number in the file name you cannot see easily which files are missing. Deleting the numbers from the file name is like entering an archive and throwing the files over the floor... So please don't destroy information, think again, took me hours to restore, my time is limited, i'd rather spend it uploading in an orderly fashion. thanks.

	The Original Barnstar
	Thank you for renaming”Kyougoku　Takakazu”. Actually, I was particular about this name because it was specified as a historical expert as a regional ruler painter of another person in which this painting is actually present, but it was left wrong.

FYI, I have been following this collection as a potential mass upload in a month or two, based on my experience with finds.org. I do not subscribe to the classicists list myself, but was alerted to the discussion. Copyright may be less of an issue, depending on whether we can trust copyright statements on the website to be correct. I'm not analysing this further yet, so let me know if you are taking this forward and I'll focus on other projects. --Fæ (talk) 11:15, 8 November 2017 (UTC)

Renaming of File:Google_Chrome.svg

Hi Marcus,

I requested that "File:Google_Chrome.svg" be renamed to "File:Google_Chrome_logo_and_wordmark_(own_work).svg". Thank you for renaming it, however I see that you then renamed the file to "File:Google_Chrome_logo_and_wordmark.svg" with the comment makes no sense - every work is an "own" work - who is "own"? I understand the sentiment, but as I explained in my request, the file in question is not the official logo (it looks different) and the name should make it clear so that people stop using it. Let's come up with a name that makes more sense, such as "user-created", "unofficial", "fan-made", "mockup" (to match File:Google_Chrome_icon_(2011)_mockup.svg).

I propose the following:

1. Move "File:Google_Chrome_logo_and_wordmark.svg" to "File:Google_Chrome_logo_and_wordmark_(something).svg".
2. Delete the redirect pages "File:Google_Chrome_logo_and_wordmark_(own_work).svg" and "File:Google_Chrome_logo_and_wordmark.svg" (which will be created when the file is moved). Nothing links to them and they will only cause confusion.
3. Make "File:Google_Chrome.svg" redirect to File:Google_Chrome_for_Android_Icon_2016.svg like I originally proposed. I can do this myself.

--Hddqsb (talk) 20:48, 9 November 2017 (UTC)

P.S. I suggested "own work" to match the "Source" parameter, which says "own work" via Template:Own. The documentation says to use it when "you personally created the entire original image by yourself", and I feel that "own work" in the file name conveys the message that a user of Wikimedia Commons created the image. I still think "own work" is the most suitable name, but I respect your status as a trusted member and I am sure you will make a sensible decision. --Hddqsb (talk) 21:08, 9 November 2017 (UTC)

Would it be a better idea to change it from "own work" to your name/nick name? "Own" is really problematic. Marcus Cyron (talk) 00:58, 10 November 2017 (UTC)

I am not the author, but for what it's worth I think using the author's name is fine. --Hddqsb (talk) 01:47, 10 November 2017 (UTC)

So we came to an result :). Marcus Cyron (talk) 15:23, 10 November 2017 (UTC)

Hi Marcus, can you please rename the file like we discussed (and delete the redirect pages I mentioned)? --Hddqsb (talk) 20:19, 12 November 2017 (UTC)

Renamed. But as long the redirects are not needed for other files, I will let them undeleted, because it is possible, that the files were already reused outsite Wikimedia projects. It's better, because of the licenses, to let here if it is possible the correct link. Marcus Cyron (talk) 21:32, 12 November 2017 (UTC)

Thank you for renaming. The redirects only existed for 5 days, nothing on Wikimedia links to them and it is extremely unlikely that they are used outside Wikimedia. I see absolutely no licensing issues because the actual file will still exist and no content attribution will be lost if the redirects are removed. They are completely useless and only cause confusion. --Hddqsb (talk) 23:33, 12 November 2017 (UTC)

To bequest or not to bequest

Hi Marcus! I agree with you that Edward C. Moore Collection category is getting too big and can be subdivided in this or that way. I also realize that Gryffindor is not necessarily right every time with his redirect requests but I'll agree with him on redirecting Moore's bequest to Moore's collection. Rationale: 1. Moore made a bequest, the MET accepted it and created Edward C. Moore Collection. 2. Additionally, bequest is a legal term with different specifications, requires to spell from whom, to whom, and on what conditions. 3. Last but not least, old man Moore probably would not like it himself seeing from above that his collection is divided on what he donated and what was donated by his son. By the way, let me finish with wishing you and your family a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.--Taterian (talk) 02:51, 14 December 2017 (UTC) P.S. To answer the query, for sure, bequest, donate, give away, and help others to keep the world rolling!

Hi, I must confess, I had not the time in the last week, to follow discussions in this area. So I don't know, what's going on there. But I never stand in the way of usefull changes. Marry Christmas to you too. Marcus Cyron (talk) 10:11, 14 December 2017 (UTC)

Category:Female lugers from Germany

Hi, about the toic: why did you wrote: "we don't devide the sexes"... It's your decision? In every sport sexes can be devided. why not in luge? I recreated the page.--Louis.attene (talk) 11:15, 3 January 2018 (UTC)

We alwyas have not seperated in such categories. And bacause of nobody has done it yet, it's we, not me. Please don't do this! And mostly: don't do this against the will of others and without talking about it! You had created a subpage without being interested in filling the category correctly. So please - put your fingers away from things, other people had put so much work in over the years. Marcus Cyron (talk) 11:25, 3 January 2018 (UTC) PS: please live your sexism out at an other place! Here are all lugers equal, males and females!

Who are you for decide what i gotta do it?? Where is the discussion about it??? Luge is not yours!!! The categories i filled are correct!! "Put your finger over the things????" I report your behavior. --Louis.attene (talk) 11:30, 3 January 2018 (UTC)

Do this. Report your behaviour. Marcus Cyron (talk) 11:33, 3 January 2018 (UTC)

Please tell where and when the decision was taken, e from whom! I see no discussion about it. See other sports!--Louis.attene (talk) 11:38, 3 January 2018 (UTC)

You say it very clear - there was no discussion but you came now and want to change a system, we have since 10 years. You came and work against everything. And yes - I see other sports. You wanna change something, so you have to bring on a discussion. Marcus Cyron (talk) 13:45, 3 January 2018 (UTC)

You are not right, i'm on wikipedia ten years like you. The difference between you and me is only that you reverted all my changes and i opened a talk about this. That's it. For changes is not always needed a discussion (i made ponderated changes, not vandalisms...)--Louis.attene (talk) 13:52, 3 January 2018 (UTC)

You talk about "we".. I see only you writing these words.--Louis.attene (talk) 13:54, 3 January 2018 (UTC)

Is there some good reason you do this (seperating in such categories)? What's wrong with the current system? Why do we have to devide the sexes – what's the benefit of that? --DCB (talk) 15:00, 3 January 2018 (UTC)

Nothing wrong. The aim of deviding is to chain female categories with sportswomen categories and disciplines, such a little sportswomwn database database. In other sports this is already implemented. Benefit is that all female athletes are easier to find, in all the sports. Another benefit is the deep categorization. Why not? I say.--Louis.attene (talk) 23:20, 3 January 2018 (UTC)

But let me know.. i see that you are all germans, are you interested in german lugers only? My words are for general purposes--Louis.attene (talk) 23:22, 3 January 2018 (UTC)

Are you kidding me? DCB and I made in the last years hundreds, maybe thousands of luge images. We always cared for EVERYBODY. Male, female, germans, italians, americans, russians, austrians, czech, ukrainians, canadians, koreans, polish, indians and so on. And I was the one who made the cat system here! For ALL countries. I was the idiot, who was bringing order in the luge images. I needed days for this work. I always, ALWAYS saw the whole sport. Next plan is to take pictures at the Youth World Championships. But, belive me, such discussions are so frustrating, that I will think two times if I should spend my times in this. When I'm out of the way, ofcourse you could do you're categorization (btw a question - why you only seperate the females from the males and sort the females as Undercat? This is not a sighn of respect!) - but you would not win. You would lose. You would lose all the images I actually have not uploaded yet (one World cup from the last and one from the actual season) and you would lose what I would do in the future. We all would lose. Maybe you're interested in a short information: I - and more than me DCB - are in a good contact to the italien national team lugers. Last december we shared a hotel with them in Altenberg. So we're not idiots. We know, what we're talking about. We know, what we're doing. The gender classification is a invention of the en:WP. It's sad, that a lot other Wikipedias copied this nonsense. And yes - it is nonsense. For a long time in luge it was normal, that males and females run together in the doubles. We have at least one year, a woman was on the third place at the males competition for the german champion. So why devide them? They run together their world cups, championships and have even today with the relay a gender mixed race. So why deviding them? Next btw question: you asked if we would only be interested in german lugers. No - but as far as I see it, you have until now only started to seperate the gender in the german cat. What I say is also the same with bobsleding, where you already have done the seperation. In a time, the IBSF has allowed women to perticipated in the 4-men-bobsled, you really wanna devide the gender? I can't understand this. Really, I can't understand it.

You accuse me by sexism... LOL.. i don't wanna fight with anyone. I don't wanna win, i don't wanna lose.. you talk about other questions that mine ("you will lose the photos, i'm in contact with italian lugers...) bof.. i'm here for the encyclopedia, not for fight with german users for other purposes than my proposal.. Cheers--Louis.attene (talk) 12:09, 5 January 2018 (UTC).

Last, but not he least, you talk about disciplines (Doubles is allowed to women too.. IBSF introduced women to 4-crew bobsleigh.. etc...), things that i well know.. So, i don't understand, i don't wanna divide the disciplines, so.. what you're talking about? BTW i respect your point of view and appreciate so much you uploads. But i think you misunderstood my purposes.. --Louis.attene (talk) 13:08, 5 January 2018 (UTC)

Operation Entebbe

The photo you deleted has no copyright, yet you claimed it was violating copyright. Why? Nystart!! (talk) 18:41, 8 January 2018 (UTC)

I'll re-upload it now since you're not responding. Nystart!! (talk) 19:53, 8 January 2018 (UTC)

now since you're not responding - do you belive, I have to be here 24/7? You really think, I don't have a life outsite Wikimedia projects? In which world you are living? And depending the image: On the site is clearly to read © 2018 Lockheed Martin Corporation. All Rights Reserved. Marcus Cyron (talk) 20:03, 8 January 2018 (UTC)

I've now found a source that doesn't claim copyright and issues the complete photo. Nystart!! (talk) 20:08, 8 January 2018 (UTC)

But you have to proof, why the image should be not copyrighted. Marcus Cyron (talk) 20:12, 8 January 2018 (UTC)

Because it's 42 years old! You're the one who needs to prove anyone claims copyright. 2A02:2808:5401:2142:0:0:0:F2E 20:18, 8 January 2018 (UTC)

And why do you think, after 42 years the copyright vanishes? Usual is 70 years post morten photographer. Marcus Cyron (talk) 20:21, 8 January 2018 (UTC)

Well, nobody claims copyright. And multiple different websites have uploaded the photo without claiming they know who the photographer is. 185.103.110.70 20:26, 8 January 2018 (UTC)

And because other sites steal, we should steal too? I don't think so. It don't work this way on Commons. Btw - the Uploader is responsible for Copyright claims. So you would have to pay. Marcus Cyron (talk) 20:38, 8 January 2018 (UTC)

Haha, that's okay. If the photo is in fact copyrighted (which it is not), I'll not only pay the photographer, but also give you 5,000 $. What about that? 213.89.117.212 21:15, 8 January 2018 (UTC)

This is not a game. Marcus Cyron (talk) 21:29, 8 January 2018 (UTC)

I know. Which is why I'm offering to pay you if you manage to prove me wrong. 213.89.117.212 21:57, 8 January 2018 (UTC)

OK, it seems we're running circles. So this is the last reply by me: Wikimedia Commons has rules. If you want to participate in this project, you have to follow these rules. If not, you need to stay away. One of our mayor rules is to follow the copyright. There are two pillows - american rights, because the servers standing in the US, the second are the rights of the country, where the files are coming from. Normally the copyright is 70 years post mortem the artist/producer. Sometimes it can differ. When you think, the copyright for this image differs, YOU have to proof, why this is so. As long you can't, the file will be deleted. Point. Marcus Cyron (talk) 04:57, 9 January 2018 (UTC)

Variant versions of photo

Thank you for moving "File:Grave monument of Gaius Rabirius Hermodorus, Rabiria Demaris, and Usia Prima.jpg" to its current title. However, when you did so, you also uploaded a new version of the photo, which appears to have been significantly edited to sharpen and increase contrast and saturation, or some similar processes. I understand why some people might prefer the edited photo, but for illustrative purposes I preferred the original version, which more closely resembles natural marble monuments that have undergone significant weathering over time. It had a smooth look and fairly soft, uniform colour to it, and made an excellent illustration; indeed one of the best I could have asked for, for an article that I didn't think would be easily illustrated. The new version brings out a lot of small details, holes and pitting, that aren't as prominent in the original, and changes the soft white marbly colour to a rainbow of faint hues, including reds, blues, and yellows.

I'd like to suggest that the main file be reverted to the earlier version, and that the edited version be uploaded separately, under a similar but distinguishable title. Some people might prefer the edited version for illustration, but the original seems more suitable from my point of view. P Aculeius (talk) 13:44, 12 January 2018 (UTC)

The problem is, that it's hard to see details on the image. But there are detaisl. On the other hand I understand your view. I know this from a lot problems that appear in the same way. So when you are so unhappy with the reworked image, I definetly will not argue, when you change back to the older version. Marcus Cyron (talk) 14:48, 12 January 2018 (UTC)

Thanks, I've reverted the original, but uploaded your enhanced version separately, and linked the two, so that people can use whichever version they prefer. P Aculeius (talk) 20:24, 12 January 2018 (UTC)

File:Journal.pone.0040163.g007.TIF

Hi. I tagged this page for renaming back in November, and haven't checked my Commons watchlist since then, so didn't see that you'd declined it. Could you please go into a bit more detail as to why it doesn't meet the second criterion for renaming? To me, it seemed like a pretty straightforward case: The two words are irrelevant to the file's content, and the rest is just random numbers. — PinkAmpers&^{(Je vous invite à me parler)} 01:29, 15 January 2018 (UTC)

Whyt should I expect under a title "dead fisher? An image of dead Carrie Fisher? Of a dead fisherman? Usually animals named with their scientific names. Your proposal is very unspecific and would caus - in my opinion - also problems. But I would not oppose a renaming in general. Marcus Cyron (talk) 08:51, 15 January 2018 (UTC)

Renaming image declined

Why did you decline the renaming of File:The soldier in our Civil War - a pictorial history of the conflict, 1861-1865, illustrating the valor of the soldier as displayed on the battle-field, from sketches drawn by Forbes, Waud, Taylor, (14759794691).jpg to File:Interior of the Turret of the USS Montauk (14759794691).jpg. You justified doing this as a non-compliance with renaming guidelines. What "is" non-compliant about that name? --BeckenhamBear (talk) 09:46, 12 February 2018 (UTC)

This is part of a series, all images names the same way. So why just 2 images should be renamed? The old titles are not wrong. Marcus Cyron (talk) 10:38, 12 February 2018 (UTC)

The images are etchings covering an enormous and diverse subject, taken from a book. The project similar thousands of etchings from before the 20th century. Each image is eligible for different multiple diverse categories. Without renaming, they are irretrievable in the main, and difficult to recognize and use (even within a sub category). All of these images have to be re-named in time. The master category for the images is the book title. This a very time consuming process, hence files tend to be re-named at random, usually when used on Wikipedia, and found at random. There are plenty of precedents on the Wiki for similar etchings. Examples Category:The antiquities of England and Wales (1785) and Category:Parrots in captivity. Vol. 2. Additionally I attempted to re-name the image as the Artist and Publisher originally intended. Will you now re-name please. --BeckenhamBear (talk) 12:39, 13 February 2018 (UTC)

So please say this (in short) in your renaming requests - and when you do it, please not just one or two, then all these images. Marcus Cyron (talk) 13:31, 13 February 2018 (UTC)

Wiki Loves Monuments ti aspetta, con centinaia di nuovi comuni fotografabili

Concorso Wiki Loves Monuments Italia 2018 (English version)

Gentile Marcus Cyron, ti ringraziamo ancora una volta per la tua passata partecipazione a Wiki Loves Monuments (WLM). Il più grande concorso fotografico del mondo si svolge anche questo settembre per documentare e promuovere il patrimonio culturale italiano, con una licenza copyright libera.

Quest'anno è doppiamente facile partecipare: gli oggetti fotografabili coprono quasi 1000 comuni in più, grazie all'adesione di centinaia di nuovi enti fra cui Roma, e alla possibilità di fotografare circa 2000 alberi monumentali. Controlla le liste di monumenti fotografabili! Carica tutte le foto che hai e magari organizza una visita presso i monumenti che ancora non hanno una foto.

Quest'oggi il Parlamento europeo ha respinto la proposta di estendere la libertà di panorama. E allora scattiamo e pubblichiamo tutte le foto che possiamo, almeno per questi monumenti per cui ci è legalmente consentito!

Grazie, Nemo 16:07, 12 September 2018 (UTC)

Aglaonike

Greetings! :) I'm sorry for uploading the file that still has its copyright — I wasn't sure about the copyright issues in this case, but thank you, I read some pages on Wikimedia about those possible problems. Hope you are well. ;) — Mychele Trempetich (talk) 15:19, 29 October 2018 (UTC)

Hi, yes, mistakes can happen, but this is definetly a not 2-dimensional work of art. So this can't stay on Commons. But the bigger problem is, that it definetly has nothing, but absolutely nothing to do with Aglaonike or astronomy. This is a casual toilet scene. A greek woman get dressed by a slave, handy girl or her mother. Also the inscriptions give other names. It's very, very uncommon to show real humans of the time on ancient greek vases. There are very few examples, so foreign kings like Dareios or Arkesilas. Or as fun, as gag, themself in the time of the Pioneers (last quater of 6th century BC). So we had here two big problems. Best, Marcus Cyron (talk) 16:17, 29 October 2018 (UTC) PS: the artist is also not "unknown", it's the Eretria Painter. PPS: probably I have a picture made by me of this vase in my collection, I need to look for it.

Sagen wir es mal so: man schafft nichts Neues, aber Regesten verfassen ist jetzt auch nicht ohne. Das ist alles in allem schon wissenschaftliche Arbeit.

Ich habe das auch ausserhalb meiner Diplomatik-Einführung im Studium (bei Wolfgang Huschner ;)) nie gemacht. Es ist eine einerseits ein "banales" Exerptieren von Fakten nach einem letztlich immer gleichen Muster, andererseits eben auch eine Arbeit, die man nicht unbedingt dem Praktikanten überlässt.

Category:Objects by provenience in the Metropolitan Museum of Art

Hello, Marcus Cyron. I see that you created this category last year. I wonder if the word provenience should be provenance. According to the Wiktionary entry, provenience is used to describe where an archaeological object was found, and provenance is used to describe the chain of ownership of an item. The items in this category seem to refer to provenance, not provenience. What do you think? --Auntof6 (talk) 01:13, 16 November 2018 (UTC)

Provenance has more than one meaning and it means at the end, where the artefact came from. This can be the place where it was found as also from which older collection. But I would not stand in the way, if you find a better category. Marcus Cyron (talk) 02:15, 16 November 2018 (UTC)

I was thinking of renaming it to Category:Objects in the Metropolitan Museum of Art by provenance, to use the other word and to put the sort criterion at the end of the name. --Auntof6 (talk) 02:32, 16 November 2018 (UTC)

File:Af-môre.wav

Hi Marcus Cyron,

When I try to add the soundfile for Afrikaans môre on Dutch Wiktionary it doesn't show the audio player, rendering it useless to the reader. I noticed the same phenomenon on French wiktionary and on the Commons page, so I guess it is not something I can fix on Dutch Wiktionary. VLC media player is able to play Af-môre.wav, so it seems there is something wrong with the mechanism that connects .wav files with the player. I noticed this is the only Lingua Libre file with a redirect, but neither page will work. As this is the only file in this batch that doesn't play, maybe restoring the situation before the creation of the redirect would solve the problem. As you were involved in moving the file it seemed appropriate to put this request to you. Although I agree that it is desirable to stick to clear naming conventions, we need to find a better solution; in the meantime it would be nice if the file remained useful.

Hi, due to this seems to be a technical problem, I think it would be the better solution, to ask at the Village pump, if there's a problem and how to fix it. I'm not into these techical issues, but a renaming usually has good causes, so I better would ask first people who maybe know abot that problem, instead of making a step back.

Hi. I consider renominating this file to deletion since I've not understood your rationale for keeping it and these recent discussions ghere and here. May you explain me the rationale behind your decision? In advance, thanks, --Patrick Rogel (talk) 17:06, 8 March 2019 (UTC)

You're argumentation was very weak. Copyright symbols for example are widely used for other things than Copyright. It's very often used for showing an authorship. JP Fischers argumentation was instead of your's very clear and focussed. And - we're not here to frustrate our authors. In dubio pro imago. I'm looking for arguments to keep images, and not to delete them. And there is room in decissions. Those room should be always used as far as possible for the author. Deletion is something, that should only happen, if there are no other possibility. Marcus Cyron (talk) 20:50, 8 March 2019 (UTC)

BTW: Still no request for deletion after my message to the publisher at the FB page. They seeem to have no problems. --JPF (talk) 20:55, 8 March 2019 (UTC)

Hi Marcus Cyron. Would you mind looking at this file? You recently blocked the uploader for repeated copyvios and I think this might be one as well. FWIW, I think the uploader probably might have a en:WP:CIR when it comes things like COM:L and en:WP:COPY because they seem to be trying to upload these files just so that they can add them to their Wikipedia user sandbox. Most of the files they're uploading already exist as en:WP:NFC locally on Wikipedia, but such files aren't allowed to be used on user pages. -- Marchjuly (talk) 04:52, 22 March 2019 (UTC)

Could you also take a look at File:Vistaprint logo.svg.png? It's certainly not "own work" and is basically the same as en:File:Vistaprint logo.svg. -- Marchjuly (talk) 05:00, 22 March 2019 (UTC)

It's definetly possible, that also this image is a Copyvio. I must confess, the wide field of logo and coat of arms problematics I never really get well enough to make descissions here. This field I let for people, who are more competent than I am. It's enough, when the uploaders don't know, what they do. Admins who do so are definetly not needed. When you are able to decide here - you're very wellcome. Marcus Cyron (talk) 05:03, 22 March 2019 (UTC)

Fair enough. Thanks for taking a look. -- Marchjuly (talk) 05:11, 22 March 2019 (UTC)

rename request declined: does not comply with renaming guidelines

I made a request for renaming of File:Cyrano de Bergerac - L'autre monde ou Les états et empires de la lune et du soleil, nouv éd, 1932.djvu, to be used in fr.wikisource, and the ' character is not allowed in filenames and links in french wikisource. The uploader (another fr.wikisource contributor, who did it for me) made a mistake. You, and another administrator, refused to do so. I understand it is a very serious matter to display contempt of sacred Commons guidelines, but maybe an exception may be done for me. fr.wikisource people may becomr very sanguine if the ' character remains in the file name. --Wuyouyuan (talk) 20:14, 30 March 2019 (UTC)

This is nothing we both can decide here. About this we have to talk openly in the Commons:Administrators' noticeboard. I would not vote in general against this. But if we do so for fr:WS, we need a rule for it. Marcus Cyron (talk) 01:34, 31 March 2019 (UTC)

Do not worry about a talk. I will upload a new copy of the file, with the correct (fr.wikisource rules) name, then ask for deletion of the other file. --Wuyouyuan (talk) 07:56, 31 March 2019 (UTC)

Then there will come an other request for renaming and there will come an renamer and will rename it. This is not a good way. And we also don't need it two times on the server, if it's not really neccessary. Marcus Cyron (talk) 02:02, 1 April 2019 (UTC)

Appending (2013) to File:Khan Academy logo.svg

Khan Academy has a new logo (File:Khan Academy logo (2018).svg) and I think the old one's name needs to be distinguished more clearly from the new. Having a less ambiguous file name is one of the reasons listed in the renaming guideline. XYZtSpace (talk) 06:05, 31 March 2019 (UTC)

And why you don't write this when you ask for the renaming? So this makes sense. If this would be still the actuall loge not. You always need to keep in mind, that not everybody knows about this, but those informations are essential. ;) Marcus Cyron (talk) 02:00, 1 April 2019 (UTC)

The file of course was kept and now has OTRS permission, I provided written and certified evidence about the origin. Thank you for your message in support, I dont understand why this guy Patrick Rogel tries permanently to delete any photo I upload, he must be sick. In any case, solved. Scott335 (talk) 15:16, 21 April 2019 (UTC)

I would not speculate about diseases, that's not something people like to see for good reason. Although I can understand your anger. It is admittedly not always easy with such pictures. But the said reason could not be right. It's good, if there are people who look for correct licensing, unfortunately some are going a bit far with this sometimes. I hope, now we're done with this toppic. -- Marcus Cyron (talk) 16:38, 21 April 2019 (UTC)

Hallo Marcus,

vielen Dank für die Löschung! Ich hatte sie extra mit Hinweis auf das OTRS-Ticket wiederhergestellt und wollte gerade die Freigabe eintragen :-/ -- Ra'ike T C 19:10, 21 April 2019 (UTC)

Tut mir leid, da hat sich offenkundig etwas überschnitten. Marcus Cyron (talk) 19:15, 21 April 2019 (UTC)

Geschenkt. Aber sag mal, Du bist auch OTRS-Mitglied. Magst Du da bei einem Backlog von aktuell ~870 nicht auch mal ein paar Freigaben bearbeiten? Wiederherstellen und freigeben dürfte sicher befriedigender sein als löschen. -- Ra'ike T C 19:24, 21 April 2019 (UTC)

Ich habe schon des öfteren Freigaben bearbeitet. Mehr möchte ich gar nicht zu diesem in meinen Augen schon recht unhöflichen Beitrag schreiben. Marcus Cyron (talk) 19:29, 21 April 2019 (UTC)

Sorry, aber das kann aus lauter Frust schonmal passieren. Das Backlog ist schon lange einfach nur noch zum Verzweifeln. Dann versucht man mal wieder ein bisschen dagegen anzuarbeiten und kriegt gleich eine Freigabe in Bearbeitung unterm Hintern weggelöscht :-( -- Ra'ike T C 19:45, 21 April 2019 (UTC)

Renaming of incorrectly identified image - File:Japan Type 89 grenade discharger.jpg

Hey Marcus,

New to Wikimedia, still learning the ropes. Was hoping you could clarify the issue with my proposed rename of the image? Did I miss a step in the process or is there something else? It is a Misidentified Object and does seem to fit the criteria. The guideline says "If an object or organism was incorrectly identified in the filename (such as calling a Sylvilagus floridanus by the name “File:Sylvilagus audubonii.jpg”), this criterion covers renaming the image". Seems analogous.

If theres doubt that it is misidentified, a correctly identified example of the Type 10 exists on the commons. Here is a Type 10, notice the identical trigger tab, the same right angle steps where the barrel ends and same general construction. The other image of the Type 89 here isn't great, but here is an external link to images. Notice the different designed buttplate, the different trigger tab, the elevation control knob, the curved section where barrel meets the "stock". Khitrir (talk) 12:40, 7 May 2019 (UTC)

You want to rename an image. There are three stages for the identification of an object. The least important is the name. At the end you can name a file how ever you like, it's of minor importance. But of importance is a correct categorization and the most important is a correct discription. The category as also the discription still saying "Type 89". So which effect other than inconsistence should a renaming have? But it's not my job to do this, because it's not my field of work - I don't know, if what I would do is correct. But what I can do, have to do, is not allowing an inconsistence in this all. What's next? Someone comes and want to rename it back to Type 89, because discription and category say so? -- Marcus Cyron (talk) 13:43, 7 May 2019 (UTC)

I don't get it. The obvious solution to me is also correcting the description and categories to match what's actually in the image. Its misidentified, the guideline seems clear that the filename should change. The name it has is actually the name of an entirely different thing. Like a photo of a Dog with the file name "Elephant.jpg". If such a photo existed, and had "Elephant" in the Categories and Description as well, is it just meant to be left like that? There's no process by which to fix it? Khitrir (talk) 15:39, 7 May 2019 (UTC)

I don't explain it a second time. If it's not worth to you to change the category and the discription, it can't be a problem. -- Marcus Cyron (talk) 15:41, 7 May 2019 (UTC)

I assumed changing the page details (the category and description) before the name change was approved would be bold. I intended to get the rename done, then fix the details. If all I have to do is fix those first, then request the rename, that's easy. Sorry for being a nuisance and thanks for your patience. If I've misunderstood, please let me know, otherwise I'll make those changes and re-request the name change after I check into the category and description standards to make sure anything I do is compliant. Cheers. Khitrir (talk) 16:11, 7 May 2019 (UTC)

Darf ich fragen welche "norm" hier als Schnelllöschgrund akzeptiert wurde? Das die Fotografin den Ausschnitt unpassend fand? Ich bin verwirrt. --Mirer (talk) 17:38, 24 June 2019 (UTC)

Das Bild, das du da ausgeschnitten hast, war nicht nur handwerklich schlecht, es hatte Potential absolut despektierlich zu wirken. Wenn wir solche Ausschnitte in dem Projekt verwenden, könnte es uns durchaus passieren, daß wir bald keine Akkreditierungen mehr bekommen. Echt, was hast du dir denn bei diesem Bild gedacht? Hast du etwas gegen die Dargestellte? Anders kann ich es mir schwer erklären. Vielleicht solltest du nicht bei mir meckern und Nicola angreifen, sondern mal darüber nachdenken, was sinnvoll ist und was nicht, womit man Menschen schaden könnte. Wenn wir Menschen fotografieren, haben diese ein Recht auf die Wahrung ihrer Persönlichkeitsrechte. Es geht also nicht darum, ob die Ausschnitte von Bildern machst, sondern darum, wie du das hier gemacht hast. Ich wäre an deiner Stelle eher froh, daß dieser schlechte Ausschnitt schnell wieder weg war. -- Marcus Cyron (talk) 18:14, 24 June 2019 (UTC)

Sehe ich immer noch anders als ihr beiden. Das Bild ist wie es ist ...

Ich habe übrigens weder hier "gemeckert" (sondern eine einfache Frage gestellt), noch Nicola "angegriffen" (sondern sie lediglich gebeten mich nicht mehr zu kontaktieren). LASS solche Unterstellungen/Lügen bitte!

Es gab also keinen Grund nach den Regeln?! Soll mir aber egal sein, wenn du alle anderen Crops von mir (das sind alle Dateien unter diesem Account) auch schnelllöschst - scheinbar bin ich ja zu doof dafür und das ändern von Dateien schreiben wir uns zwar als Möglichkeit auf die Fahnen, wenn es dann aber einer macht, fragen wir den "Hauptautor". Dann mache ich hier nichts mehr und überlasse das Feld euch Commonshelden.

Ansonsten bitte die Beschwerdeinstanz nennen. Sowohl zur Bildwiederherstellung als auch für ein "AP". --Mirer (talk) 18:24, 24 June 2019 (UTC)

@Mirer: Diese Regel ist ganz einfach und nennt sich Artikel 1 des Grundgesetzes: "Die Würde des Menschen ist unantastbar." --Nicola (talk) 19:53, 24 June 2019 (UTC)

Keine Commonsregel ... das du mir hier unterstellst ich würde dagegen verstoßen zeigt nur, dass du a) keine Ahnung von Recht hast und b) warum du dich mal mit Robert verstanden hast - irgendwie kommunzierst du ja scheinbar gerne auf eine ähnliche widerliche Art. --Mirer (talk) 19:58, 24 June 2019 (UTC)

@Mirer: Das ist eine Regel, die über allem steht. Hat was mit Anstand und Respekt zu tun, das sollte überall gelten. Den zweiten Teil Deines Posts ignoriere ich mal, weil er lediglich zeigt, dass Dir irgendwie der Durchblick fehlt, wenn ich auch "widerlich" nicht wirklich nett finde. --Nicola (talk) 20:32, 24 June 2019 (UTC)

@Mirer: - es gibt aber eine Commonsregel die besagt, daß Persönlichkeitsrechte, erst recht lebender Personen, zu achten sind. Das hast du mit deinen Ausschnitten schwerlich ausreichend getan. Und ich würde dich bitten, diese Aggressivität in Richtung Nicola einzustellen. Du darfst hier anderer Meinung sein und Kritik üben, in der Form schießt du gerade aber massiv über das Ziel hinaus. -- Marcus Cyron (talk) 20:37, 24 June 2019 (UTC)

Ach, ich schieß übers Ziel hinaus ... umgekehrt dar man mich provozieren, wie man möchte - hat ja geklappt und ich wurde auch von einem weiteren der Vernetzten bereits zurechtgewiesen und mit der gelben Karte belegt. Dann pflegt euer Commons mal schön weiter, ich stehe dabei nicht mehr im Wege. --Mirer (talk) 20:43, 24 June 2019 (UTC)
