Happy Holidays![edit]

File:Wikisanta.jpg

Kanonkas(talk) would like to take this opportunity to wish you a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. I really do hope this can make your day slightly better, and if it has done, feel free to pass on the WikiLove to anyone you like! :) Friends, random people, and even those you've had disagreements with. Christmas is, after all, a time to forgive any past actions, and move on from them. Again, happy holidays to you all!

Food after the CCC[edit]

Here's how to get to the food place (Mittmann's) in case we miss each other or you want to come later. [1]

Please[edit]

e-mail cary for identification, so your oversight-request might me closed ;) Thank you and happy new year! abf « Cabale?! Quelle Caballe?» 02:25, 2 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Yes. I've closed it, (congratulations, by the way, on getting 33 unanimous supports!!!) and made the request at Meta, ([2]) but it's pending your identification. I have already emailed you the link to the boilerplate instructions (they are also linked from m:Identification noticeboard) as well as the instructions themselves. So hopefully that's in train. As soon as you're set up, look me up on IRC if you want and I can walk you through oversighting something. It's a bit persnickety but easy enough. Best wishes. ++Lar: t/c 05:37, 2 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
As the request was done I now can say "Happy Oversighting" ;) abf «Cabale?! Quelle Caballe?» 16:05, 6 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Map[edit]

Yeah please check en:International reaction to the 2008–2009 Israel–Gaza conflict.--Avala (talk) 20:36, 7 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Countries you didn't interpret in the right way:
  • Australia as neutral but the statement goes like this "Prime Minister Kevin Rudd said that Australia recognises Israel's right to self-defence"
  • Morocco as neutral but the statement goes like this "The Kingdom of Morocco strongly condemns the massive Israeli military operations which have claimed, this morning, the lives of dozens of Palestinian brothers in Gaza strip, and strongly condemns the disproportionate use of force and the tragic escalation of violence"
  • Canada as neutral but "Canada’s foreign affairs minister, Lawrence Cannon, also issued a statement in which he pointed to Israel’s "clear right to defend itself" against continuing attacks by militants he accused of "deliberately" targeting civilians."
  • USA as neutral but President George W. Bush said "I understand Israel's desire to protect itself, and that the situation now taking place in Gaza was caused by Hamas."
  • Norway as neutral but "On January 4, Prime Minister Jens Stoltenberg criticised the Israeli ground offensive into Gaza, calling it "a dramatic escalation"."
  • Sweden as neutral but "Foreign Minister Carl Bildt condemned Israel and said that "The Israeli ground offensive is "basically an admission that (Tel Aviv's) air attacks over the past week have failed to achieve what they had hoped for," Bildt said in a statement late Saturday.. Instead of seeking a possible political solution after this failure they have now chosen to dramatically escalate the conflict with a ground offensive. It is obvious that this will make it harder to find a solution to this serious conflict.""
  • Denmark as neutral even after they summoned the Israeli ambassador.

etc.

I think you should review your sources before accusing me. Cheers.--Avala (talk) 20:40, 7 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

And if you have any opposing sources for your interpretation you are free to update the image talk page which now has a full list to back up the map. (though it doesn't show up properly so I would advise to check for anything that doesn't show up on English WP page which is constantly updated)--Avala (talk) 20:46, 7 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]


I did before editing your map:
  • USA: The U.S. called for an immediate cease-fire, including the termination of rocket attacks against Israel, also asking that the humanitarian needs of the people of Gaza be addressed.
  • France: "firmly condemns the irresponsible provocations that have led to this situation, as well as the disproportionate use of force"
  • Germany: German Foreign Minister Frank-Walter Steinmeier has told Hamas to end what he called its "unacceptable" rocket attacks on Israel, while urging the Jewish state to do everything it could to avoid civilian casualties.
  • Norway: Norway's Foreign Minister Jonas Gahr Støre has said that using warplanes against Gaza is unacceptable, as it is impossible to separate civilians from soldiers in this small area. He also says that Hamas must cease the launching of rockets into Southern Israel
  • Sweden: Foreign Minister Carl Bildt (...) also said that he hopes both sides will stop the bombings. He also stated that the current isolation of Gaza should end, calling it "counterproductive" for the Israeli side. Bildt says that Hamas should have agreed to a continued cease-fire agreement.
  • Finland: The Israeli air strikes have demanded a disproportionate amount of civilian victims and they must end immediately. Simultaneously Hamas and other extremist groups must immediately cease their rocket attacks. The parties must reinstate the truce without delay
  • Morocco: The Kingdom of Morocco calls for the immediate halt of the hostilities which, beyond the significant loss of life, exposes the region once again to escalation, violence and divisions"
  • Canada: Canada's junior foreign minister Peter Kent added on Tuesday that there must be a strong, binding resolution to the conflict. "Canada believes there must be an immediate ceasefire, but only if it's durable ceasefire, and if Hamas is prevented or is willing not to rearm and resume its terrorist rocketing at some point down the road
  • Mexico: Mexico "also rejects rockets launched from Gaza on Israeli territory".
Your map is incoherent with these statements - as well as probably other. France and Egypt have famously drafter a cease-fire proposal, and your file also fails to take this into account. Rama (talk) 20:51, 7 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
When Morocco first says "The Kingdom of Morocco strongly condemns the massive Israeli military operations" and then "The Kingdom of Morocco calls for the immediate halt of the hostilities" I think it is quite obvious that by "hostilities" they mean Israeli attacks. The same goes for the rest of the statements where you can't just take the part saying "immediate halt of the hostilities" without looking at the fact they condemned only one side.--Avala (talk) 21:02, 7 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Such a map should not be based solely upon what you personally think to be "obvious". And dismissing the "rest of it" like this is not acceptable when there are items like "immediate cease-fire" in US statements for instance. Rama (talk) 21:05, 7 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Yes that is why the map has a legend which makes distinction between countries condemning only Israel, only Hamas or condemning both. Morocco condemned Israel only and of course called for the end of violence but not in neutral sense but the end of violence by Israeli side. It's actually not a matter of obvious or not because it is all written in the statement. And you need to put some time perspective there. First statements are sometimes superseded by later ones especially if the later ones come from higher officials then the first ones. If the spokesman of the MFA called for ceasefire but the President came out later and condemned Hamas only, then the second statement carries more weight.--Avala (talk) 21:11, 7 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
This is unacceptable. The caption puts countries having called for a cease-fire in green, your map gives the impression that the USA are encouraging Israel to carry on shelling, and that France and Egypt are encouraging Hammas to further launch rockets, while the three have called for an immediate cease-fire. Your map is misleading and arbitrary. Rama (talk) 21:19, 7 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
That is making things up now. Legend doesn't put blue as "States encouraging Israel to carry on shelling" nor orange as "States encouraging Hammas to further launch rockets". You are failing to notice that for an example Morocco condemned only one side - Israel - and that they therefore fall into the group of countries condemning the Israeli action - Orange : States that have condemned the Israeli action. And the USA is not neutral per early statement from the Department of State because you are completely ignoring what Bush said about the situation afterwards - "I understand Israel's desire to protect itself, and that the situation now taking place in Gaza was caused by Hamas" - which makes the US of one of the countries endorsing Israel - Blue: States that have endorsed the Israeli action or condemned Hamas only.
Endorsing Israel =/= encouraging Israel to carry on shelling
Condemning Israel =/= encouraging Hammas to further launch rockets
Hope it's clear now? I have tried to make the map legend as neutral as possible now. Almost all states will call for ceasefire but not all of them are neutral and that is why we have the blue and orange, to differentiate those with stronger positions. Otherwise you could paint them all green.---Avala (talk) 21:25, 7 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
It remains unacceptable. Green remains caracterised as the colour of countries which have called for a cease-fire, suggesting that other have not called for a cease-fire. The statements of Egypt and of the USA are much closer that those of France and North Korea, for instance, yet your map parts them in a subjective way, and a downright absurd one.
Your statement that "Otherwise you could paint them all green" is also a symptom that you have a pre-concieved notion of the sort of map to which you wish to arrive: if the facts are such that all countries are in green, why would it be a problem? This map is supposed to reflect facts, not how it would be realistic that countries would act according to some ideology.
The caption claims to be based on clear criteria, like calls for a cease-fire, but the categorisation is in fact made on arbitrary judgements of value. This is unacceptable. Rama (talk) 21:40, 7 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
OK now it says that those are the countries which neutrally called for halt of violence on both sides. I hope that now it's clear that green countries are supposed to be the ones that didn't take sides at all. And endorsement to Israeli position rather than action so to avoid tying it to support to bombing. I think that it is completely usable now.--Avala (talk) 22:33, 7 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
No, this is unacceptable. First you promised something different than what you delivered. Now, you categorise countries based on your personal evaluation of whether they are doing "enough" to be in such or such category. This is subjective, arbitrary, and ultimately inherently tendentious.
The only way to save this map is to decide on a clear, unambiguous criterion, and stick to it. Labeling for instance Spain and Iran in one category of countries, and the USA in the "opposite side", based on your personal feelings, is not acceptable. Rama (talk) 08:21, 8 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I am listing them based on their statements. Even Israeli press calls Spain unfriendly country. And them having the similar position with Iran, well Australia voted with Iran against the US on Cuba in the UNGA. So what? It seems you have a problem with that. You can't accept personally this fact that some countries that are usually not similar have similar positions on this issue so you decided to attack the map. You need to address the issue with real not subjective problems. Otherwise it's all bunch of letters on how you can't believe that Spain would be coloured in the same way as Iran. It doesn't mean that Spain shares the position of Iran on obliterating Israel. This map is solely based on reactions to this event and NOTHING else. It's quite clear as well - countries that endorse Israeli position (those that said that they have the right to defend themselves, that it is a defensive position or that it's solely Hamas being guilty), countries that condemned Israel only and called their attack an attack on poor Palestinian civilians etc. and called them to stop it and countries that called for the halt of violence without taking sides. It's very simple and you can see problems there only if you make them up to back up your fear that this map portrais Spain as being on the same side with Ahmadinejad.--Avala (talk) 11:57, 8 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
You are listing them on a tendentious interpretation of their statements, which you just admitted yourself is in fact parrotting Israeli positions. I believed your map to be subjective, but it is now clear that it is downright partial.
If you want to have such a map, base it in indisputable and clear facts, like the date at which a country asked for a cease-fire. As such, this map meets neither criteria of neutrality, nor of seriousness and verifiability that Wikipedia demands. It is not acceptable. Rama (talk) 12:28, 8 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

File:Pasdecabale.jpg[edit]

Hi, I just now edited the file description, mainly because the "Ben non" should not be translated by Prussian "Nein+EXCLAMATION", but I also changed the order of quotations. In case you disagree, please revert but possibly keep the more recent German text -- the guy who translated first either did not ever read Asterix, or just lacks sense of subtle French humour.

Image problem[edit]

Hello Rama, I need help in creating the page of Indian Naval bases.svg. I am using Inkscape. The problem is that I can view the page in my browser properly, but when I upload it into Commons, it only shows this.[3]. That's the map is missing. Can you tell the reason for this and how it can be corrected? Thank you.--Chanakyathegreat (talk) 03:27, 20 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hello,
yes, you are linking to an "India_78.40398E_20.74980N.jpg" image which is not included in your file, and is probably linked from a file on your system. Hence, you see no problem in your inkscape, but I get a "linked image not found", and Commons does not display the image. Rama (talk) 08:54, 20 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
For instance, over File:India-locator-map-blank.svg, it looks like this: File:Naval bases of India.svg. Cheers! Rama (talk) 09:12, 20 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the help. I tried it again but cannot troubleshoot the problem. The image is this one from Wikimedia commons.

I even tried changing the name of the file but still it did not work. The svg and the image files are in the same folder and I am uploading it from there. Is it required to upload the Image as well as the SVG files separately? Thank you.--Chanakyathegreat (talk) 13:40, 20 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Well, bitmap images are linked by default; you can embed them in the SVG with "Effects -> Images -> Embed all iamges". Then it looks like File:Indian Naval bases.svg (probably close to what you have on your computer). I think that it might be preferable to have a "pure" SVG as much as possible, but well, this does the trick. Cheers! Rama (talk) 09:56, 21 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you very much.--Chanakyathegreat (talk) 04:18, 22 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Classe Bougainville[edit]

Bonsoir, sur le schéma que vous avez crée sur la classe Bougainville, vous avez fait un duplicata de l'armement sur le place que vous avez réservé pour le blindage. L'amateur d'aéroplanes

Oui, c'est normal: d'après les plans que j'ai, les avisos coloniaux n'ont ni pont blindé, ni ceinture; le seul blindage est l'écran qui protège les servants des pièces de 138mm. Rama (talk) 18:58, 27 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Entendu, il faudrait peut être une légende pour préciser le fait ? Je vais déjà écrire votre réponse sur l'image que j'ai mit sur l'article français.L'amateur d'aéroplanes
Ben "armament" et "armour" servent à ça... mais on peut ajouter des données techniques pour renforcer l'aspect délibéré de la chose. Curieux qu'il n'y ait pas de bunker sur un navire de ce genre, j'aimerais bien avoir confirmation de ça. Rama (talk) 09:11, 28 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Image deletion ?[edit]

Hi Rama. Ref: ("Draconio.gif", deleted from Commons by Rama because: Copyright violation.) Can you tell me why this was deleted? Is there anything I can do to re-use this image, it was one of my favorites. Regards Steve. Stephen2nd (talk) 22:19, 26 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hello,
the image was deleted after a discussion between another admin of Commons and myself ; we found that the quality of the drawing and the animation of the GIF did not seem technically consistant with those of the other images uploaded by the user which can reliably be said to be his own. Since the user seemed to be inactive for some time, we decided that it was safer to delete the image.
Sorry about the inconvenience. Cheers! Rama (talk) 09:28, 27 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, Rama. I felt free and did the page in portuguese. I did this because you tagged a brazilian user today and he may not understand what's going on. I hope there is no problem. And if you have other templates like this I can translate them to portuguese if you want; Cheers! Mizunoryu 大熊猫❤小熊猫 (talk) 04:10, 4 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

HELP![edit]

I attempted to upload a picture on Flickr using the flickr bot while logged in, but the picture never showed up and now my IP is recorded in the history of this page. Even though an IP address isn't as big a deal as a home address or phone number (which is why I'm not asking this through email), I would like for it to be oversighted. And what's going on with the picture I uploaded? --Crackthewhip775 (talk) 05:05, 5 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Done. I do not know what happened to the image, it seems that wou have hit a little snag with the bot. Cheers! Rama (talk) 13:19, 6 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Photo Husserl[edit]

Salut,

Tu as jeté un sort définitif à cette photo d'Husserl. Etant donné que le philosophe fondateur de la phénoménologie est mort en 1938 à 79 ans, âge qu'il n'a manifestement pas atteint sur la photo en question, je crois que l'on peut conjecturer sans grand risque que la photo est dans le domaine public, même dans le cadre du droit français. --Gedefr (talk) 02:28, 17 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Non. La photographie est dans le domaine public si son auteur est mort depuis plus de 70 ans. L'âge du sujet est sans rapport.
A supposer que la photographie ait été prise en 1900 (ce qui est excessivement généreux), l'auteur aurait parfaitement pu avoir 20 ans à cette date, pour mourir à 80 ans (en 1960), auquel cas la photo tombe dans le domaine public en 2030.
Mettre "domaine public" sur une photo de ce genre revient à dire "il est impossible que l'auteur ait vécu au-delà de 1939". Sans avoir d'informations solides sur l'auteur de la photographie, rien ne permet d'affirmer une chose pareille. Rama (talk) 08:19, 17 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Tip: Categorizing images[edit]

Afrikaans ∙ العربية ∙ беларуская (тарашкевіца) ∙ বাংলা ∙ català ∙ čeština ∙ dansk ∙ Deutsch ∙ Deutsch (Sie-Form) ∙ Ελληνικά ∙ English ∙ Esperanto ∙ español ∙ فارسی ∙ suomi ∙ français ∙ galego ∙ עברית ∙ magyar ∙ íslenska ∙ italiano ∙ 日本語 ∙ ქართული ∙ 한국어 ∙ македонски ∙ മലയാളം ∙ norsk bokmål ∙ Plattdüütsch ∙ Nederlands ∙ norsk ∙ polski ∙ português ∙ português do Brasil ∙ română ∙ русский ∙ sicilianu ∙ slovenčina ∙ slovenščina ∙ српски / srpski ∙ svenska ∙ Türkçe ∙ українська ∙ Tiếng Việt ∙ 中文（简体）‎ ∙ 中文（繁體）‎ ∙ +/−

Hello, Rama!
Tip: Add categories to your files
Tip: Add categories to your files

Thanks a lot for contributing to the Wikimedia Commons! Here's a tip to make your uploads more useful: Why not add some categories to describe them? This will help more people to find and use them.

Here's how:

1) If you're using the UploadWizard, you can add categories to each file when you describe it. Just click "more options" for the file and add the categories which make sense:

2) You can also pick the file from your list of uploads, edit the file description page, and manually add the category code at the end of the page.

[[Category:Category name]]

For example, if you are uploading a diagram showing the orbits of comets, you add the following code:

[[Category:Astronomical diagrams]]
[[Category:Comets]]

This will make the diagram show up in the categories "Astronomical diagrams" and "Comets".

When picking categories, try to choose a specific category ("Astronomical diagrams") over a generic one ("Illustrations").

Thanks again for your uploads! More information about categorization can be found in Commons:Categories, and don't hesitate to leave a note on the help desk.

Alvesgaspar and Lycaon[edit]

These two do not like Commons:Meet our restorationists. Fair enough. However, their behaviour has spilled out into a harassment campaign, actively disrupting FPC.


Both are active on Commons:Featured_picture_candidates/File:Gasshukoku_suishi_teitoku_kōjōgaki_(Oral_statement_by_the_American_Navy_admiral).png, Alvesgaspar alone on Commons:Featured picture candidates/File:First flight2.jpg.

Alvesgaspar's last (as of this writing) comment on Commons:Featured_picture_candidates/File:Gasshukoku_suishi_teitoku_kōjōgaki_(Oral_statement_by_the_American_Navy_admiral).png comes after both me and dDurova deleted our names from Meet our restorationists in individual attempts to show that, unlike their accusations on Commons talk:Featured picture candidates, this was not about us, it was an attempt to promote restoration. Indeed, I have documented evidence that User:GerardM asked me to start Meert our restorationists as a personal favour to him.[4]

I'm tired of being Wikimedia Commons' chew toy. I'm tired of Lycaon being allowed to make whatever attacks he wants to about me unchecked. (Another recent example: [5])

I come to Commons because it's supposedly mellow. In fact, I'm being actively harassed, and noone seems to care enough to stop it. Please help. Adam Cuerden (talk) 08:13, 23 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Scan oeuvres de Le Breton[edit]

Salut Rama

je cherchais une image du cuirassé Magenta, j'ai vu que tu avais scanné les gravures à partir d'un livre publié en 1993 en France au Chasse Marée, Or la jurisprudence sur la reproduction en 2 dimensions d'une oeuvre du domaine public ne vaut pas, si je ne m'abuse, en France. Jeffdelonge (talk) 19:19, 14 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Tu formules le problème de façon étrange: soit il y a une jurisprudence, soit il n'y en a pas. De plus, la France étant un pays de droit romain, etc. Par ailleurs, je ne vis pas en France, ça pourrait encore compliquer la donne. Rama (talk) 08:47, 15 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]


SVG Help needed[edit]

I have drawn a png-file of a russian military vehicle (1740x1050, 5,2MB), but it is not really useful without explanatory comments in it. Can you tell me how effective it is to integrate a .png in an .svg file ? Or would you recommend to create a "true" .svg as addition to the .png instead ? Thank you. Alexpl

It would be better to have the entire image as a SVG, but it might be possible to convert the PNG into a SVG. Maybe the best thing to do would be to upload the drawing and see what we can do from there. Cheers! Rama (talk) 22:24, 20 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Allright. I scaled it down as much as possible and modified the palette to make the file smaller. It turned a bit into a monochrome-nightmare, but here we go: [6]. I´ve about 10 different points to explain in that graphic and I want to add a scalebar. I still have the wireframe base for this drawing (all the outlines) maybe it can be helpful to extract an svg file. Ideas? Alexpl (talk) 14:55, 21 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
The wireframe can probably be imported as SVG automatically, could you upload it too? The colour might take a while to recreate as gloriously as you did on the png, tough.
But we can always do it quick and dirty like in File:Black Eagle Obj640-embedded.svg. Rama (talk) 16:28, 21 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Wow! Just 300KB more. Looks good for me. And it would be possible for people in others wikis to easily modify it to any language they need? I made a .png with explanatory text [7] - if your time allows, would you please make the "quick and dirty" svg? Thank you very much. edit: I guess it would be best to use it as an addition to the original .png Alexpl (talk) 22:18, 21 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
It could look liks something like File:Black Eagle Obj640-embedded-b.svg. It is very easy to change the language from there. Let me know if the colours are confusing, this can be changed too. Cheers and thank you for your drawings! Rama (talk) 23:04, 21 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

revue maritime[edit]

Salut,

Zil m'a dit que tu souhaitais te poster à Toulon pour prendre des photos des bateaux. As-tu des précisions sur les horaires de départ et les horaires d'arrivée des bateaux sur le site de Sainte Maxime.

Il me semble qu'il y a 70km a vol d'oiseau entre les deux, ce genre d'engin n'etant capable de franchir les zones terrestres ils doivent faire le tour. Zil m'a parlé d'une vitesse de 10 noeuds, soit 18km/h... ce qui donne environ 4-5h pour qu'un bateau parte de toulon et arrive au lieu.

Ne serait il pas judicieux d'être a la fois au départ de toulon et a sainte maxime, étant donné qu'il faut 1h15 en voiture pour se rendre a sainte maxime par l'autoroute.

IMO system and namegiving[edit]

I think you misunderstood the IMO system and the namegiving of ships. The reason to group ships in categories by name is that the category by name is used to group ships by country, by name and so on. That is impossible if your system of all files in one category is used. The system used here for most of the ships is to group the ship under her own name in a category and to group these names under the IMO number. The hull is the same and via the IMO system you can find all ships. I categorised MS Color Festival under its IMO number and via that system you'll find the other used names by category. Will you please be so kind to revert. --Stunteltje (talk) 10:58, 12 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Nyctosaurus[edit]

Hi, Rama! I've seen you've changed the picture of the fossil of Nyctosaurus. I appreciate that you tried to eliminate the ugly reflection, but the problem is that in doing so the picture lost much detail and acquired a lot of false colours — both undesirable in an image that should have the highest possible scientific accuracy; it is not just some "illustration". The criterion here should be "science", not "aesthetics". Of course the original can still be found, but why not simply have uploaded it as an alternative so that people can choose?
