Watermarks

Hi Materialscientist,

I was wondering how you remove the watermark. Is there a tool for it "on commons"? There would be several others of the same museum (but which I did not nominate for deletion as I didn't find a better duplicate). If I would be told how to do that, I'd remove the watermark myself. Paradise Chronicle (talk) 09:29, 19 November 2023 (UTC)

I use the GIMP Resynthesizer Plugin for brute force removal, like in this case, where the watermark is simple and doesn't cover essential details of the image. Otherwise, the technique is more complex and involves several steps like reverse engineering the watermark image and the watermarking method (e.g. addition, multiplication or something nastier like alpha blending), then reverse math using the watermarked image and the watermark image. Resynthesizer is quite easy to learn, provided you have experience with image processing. All that said, I can quickly remove the watermarks if you list the images. I don't do that systematically on Commons only because there are way too many watermarks to remove [1]. Cheers. Materialscientist (talk) 11:38, 19 November 2023 (UTC)
Thanks for your offer. I tried to fix it myself, but was not so successful for now. I tried with the GIMP but for this I am clearly not experienced enough. Then I also tried it myself on my computer, but there I had an issue with the .gif format. The .gif seems to protect it against changes. So here are the ones with a watermark in the category Paintings of Renoir in the Musee d'Orsay I found. All with a .gif.

Done. Removal quality could be better, but it is Ok, considering the quality of the original file and the time spent on removal. Materialscientist (talk) 00:58, 20 November 2023 (UTC)
Wow, the files are definitely better than before. Paradise Chronicle (talk) 02:07, 20 November 2023 (UTC)

Hi! Would you mind deleting this duplicate file for me? Thanks! Đại Việt quốc (talk) 01:36, 21 November 2023 (UTC)

Done. Materialscientist (talk) 01:37, 21 November 2023 (UTC)

File:Marie Kibler 1936.jpg

I saw that you had added and edited File:Marie Kibler 1936.jpg. The other person in the image with Marie is her future husband and Olympic gymnast Chet Phillips. If at some point you're able to do the same for him, I'd appreciate you adding the image to his page. Thanks! GauchoDude (talk) 22:47, 21 November 2023 (UTC)

Done. Materialscientist (talk) 05:16, 22 November 2023 (UTC)

Hello Materialscientist,

I don't quite understand: You closed the DR as deleted "per nomination", but then kept the files? Something must have gone wrong here. Regards --Rosenzweig τ 06:33, 23 November 2023 (UTC)

Yes, a technical glitch. Deleted now. Materialscientist (talk) 11:58, 23 November 2023 (UTC)

Hi Materialscientist thanks for all your work here. Could you reconsider your nomination after I gave some real arguments. Sorry for my mistake. -- Mdd (talk) 23:43, 23 November 2023 (UTC)

Thanks for clarification. I've closed that DR as delete now, and deleted the files. Materialscientist (talk) 00:08, 24 November 2023 (UTC)

Hi Materialscientist, the deletion is wrong. This banner is intented to be placed there permanently for the whole of it's lifespan. I also have referred to another case concerning the same banner. Please undelete this image. -- Chaddy (talk) 01:45, 11 November 2023 (UTC)

"This banner is intented to be placed there permanently for the whole of it's lifespan." - does not look so. You'd need to provide reliable references for that non-trivial fact. Materialscientist (talk) 02:26, 11 November 2023 (UTC)
We had that already in the 2017 deletion request for my older but similar image (Commons:Deletion requests/File:Banner Liqui-Moly-Stadion.jpg). I provided the link also in the deletion request.
This banner already hangs there since at least 2017 (or maybe even 2016) and it still hangs there (i can take another photo if you want). It is intended as a permant installation at the stadium fence. The only reason that it is a banner and not a more solid table or something is that such amateur football clubs have to save money and a banner of course is cheaper. -- Chaddy (talk) 12:52, 11 November 2023 (UTC)
We (admins at least) need to be consistent with our stance on such matters. Proving that "temporal" posters are "permanent" is difficult. While I do understand your arguments, I don't see such a proof. Materialscientist (talk) 21:55, 11 November 2023 (UTC)
Okay, so what kind of proof would you need? -- Chaddy (talk) 04:37, 12 November 2023 (UTC)
Could you please answer my question so that I can try to gather this proof? -- Chaddy (talk) 00:35, 17 November 2023 (UTC)

I don't understand your question. I don't see any proof. Materialscientist (talk) 01:21, 17 November 2023 (UTC)

Yes, of course. :) That's why I asked you what proof I would need. What proof should I deliver? How can I proof that this banner is permanently installed? If you give me some suggestions I can try to gather this proof. -- -- Chaddy (talk) 11:59, 17 November 2023 (UTC)
Can you please answer me? I really would try to solve the problem but I must know what you need. -- Chaddy (talk) 16:45, 23 November 2023 (UTC)
Sorry. I would like to help you, but I don't see a proof or a way to produce one. Materialscientist (talk) 21:00, 23 November 2023 (UTC)
Okay - what if I would mail this soccer club and ask them if this banner is intented to hang there permanently? I could forward the conversation afterwards to the support team. -- Chaddy (talk) 00:39, 24 November 2023 (UTC)
This might work. Materialscientist (talk) 00:42, 24 November 2023 (UTC)
Okay, then I will try to contact the club in the next days. -- Chaddy (talk) 21:53, 24 November 2023 (UTC)

deletion requests

Dear Materialscientist, as you process a lot of deletion requests, I'd like to invite you to watch User:Krdbot/lost deletion requests. The page lists incompletely created requests as well as incompletely closed requests. Thank you. --Krd 07:52, 30 November 2023 (UTC)

Thanks! I had noticed glitches on the DR list page a few times before, and had a hard time finding the faulty DR. Materialscientist (talk) 09:22, 30 November 2023 (UTC)

User:Bowser and the Koopalings edit war

Hi ms, I don't see who it is. Can you deal with them here as well? Thanks, Achim55 (talk) 09:44, 30 November 2023 (UTC)

Blocked. From CU logs on en.wiki I know it is a prolific sockpuppet of someone. Materialscientist (talk) 11:30, 30 November 2023 (UTC)

Deletion reason

Hi. Could you possibly give a better deletion reason for Commons:Deletion requests/File:MicrosoftTeams-image (195).png? Microsoft Teams is a real program. A course I taught for years requires the use of it. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 08:03, 1 December 2023 (UTC)

First, thanks for your comments in DRs, I do appreciate them. Second, no slight intended, but I don't see your point. I concur with the nominator that this particular image is out of scope. This has nothing to do with the topic being in scope. Materialscientist (talk) 08:39, 1 December 2023 (UTC)
The reason was "appears to be image for internal company use, almost certainly out of scope". Do you think it's an image for internal company use? That remark by the nominator suggested to me that they are ignorant about what Microsoft Teams is. But if you don't feel a need to address that part of the nomination, it admittedly won't change the world. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 16:47, 1 December 2023 (UTC)
@Ikan Kekek The image isn't about Teams proper, though; if it were a Teams logo or something, of course it would be in scope. It's a poster linking to guidelines for a specific company's use "for a productive meeting", however; which is not something I see a use for. —‍Mdaniels5757 (talk • contribs) 18:49, 1 December 2023 (UTC)
I understand. I could imagine that maybe it might be relevant on Wikiversity or something, but in any case, I thought it was above COM:TOO US. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 22:30, 1 December 2023 (UTC)

Revdel request

I created this page in error while logged out: Commons:Deletion requests/File:Tom Harb.jpg. Could you please delete it and if declining speedy deletion, could you please revdel the edits with the IP address? There is also one such revision in the file's history, so if not speedy deleting the file as a clear copyright violation, could you please revdel that too? Thanks -- Alalch E. (talk) 00:18, 4 December 2023 (UTC)

Deleted. Materialscientist (talk) 00:57, 4 December 2023 (UTC)
Thank you. Could you perhaps revdel all of these. Really sorry for the bother. I've installed Twinkle, and will use it for speedy deletion tagging to make sure this won't happen again. Alalch E. (talk) 01:21, 4 December 2023 (UTC)
Done. Materialscientist (talk) 01:56, 4 December 2023 (UTC)

Deletion requests/File:Utrecht - Johan Schot-14

Dear Materialscientist,

Hope this message finds you well. I am contacting you to inquire about the removal of Johan Schot's profile picture on his wikipedia (Utrecht_-_Johan_Schot-144-bewerkt.jpg;). I was wondering why this has been removed and how I can resolve this issue. Please let me know if you need any further details. Thank you in advance.

Warmest regards, Nicky Wunderlich Nickywunderlich (talk) 14:23, 11 December 2023 (UTC)

Please email to COM:VRT team (read that page first), and if we find a reliable evidence that the image can be hosted on Commons, then we shall certainly undelete the file. Regards. Materialscientist (talk) 20:07, 11 December 2023 (UTC)

Derivation of deleted file still active

Hello, I’ve noticed you’ve deleted File:Bateme de Clovis par St Remy-edit.jpg due to missing FOP in France. But the original requester and you missed that there is still a derivation of this file active, presumingly a crop: File:Bateme de Clovis par St Remy-edit (reducido).jpg. Because of the reasoning for deletion this has in my opinion to be deleted, too. — Speravir – 00:51, 13 December 2023 (UTC)
