Congratulations, dear license reviewer

If you use the helper gadget, you will find the links next to the search box (vector) or as single tabs (monobook). They are named license+ and license-.

Hi Robertsky, thanks for your request for license reviewer status. The request has been closed as successful, and you've been added to the list of reviewers. You can now start reviewing files – please see Commons:License review and Commons:Flickr files if you haven't done so already. We also have a guide how to detect copyright violations. Potential backlogs include Flickr review and files from other sources. You can enable the LicenseReview gadget from Preferences.

Important: You should not review your own uploads, nor those of anyone closely related to you!

Please feel free to join us on IRC: #wikimedia-commons webchat on irc.libera.chat. You can also add {{User license reviewer}} to your user page if you wish. Thank you for your contributions on Commons! --C1K98V (💬 ✒️ 📂) 10:12, 13 May 2023 (UTC)

Hi Robertsky, you're now a filemover. When moving files please respect the following advice:

  • Use the CommonsDelinker link in the {{Rename}} template to order a bot to replace all ocurrences of the old title with the new one. Or, if there was no rename-request, please use the Move & Replace-tab.
  • Please leave a redirect behind unless you have a valid reason not to do so. Other projects, including those using InstantCommons, might be using the file even though they don't show up in the global usage. Deleting the redirects would break their file references. Please see this section of the file rename guideline for more information.
  • Please know and follow the file rename guidelines.

Dates need to be fixed (Wiki Loves Living Heritage)

✓ Done Hi, thank you for your hardwork to keep us community involved in the Living Heritage campaign. Would you look into dates for Jury selection, or I read: dates are tagged backword, or 16 July to 4 July. Do you mean 16 JUNE to 4 July?

Cheers, 0-- Omotecho (talk) 12:32, 13 June 2023 (UTC)

@Omotecho thanks for the spot. I have updated the text. to 16 July to 4 August. Robertsky (talk) 14:03, 13 June 2023 (UTC)

Wow, you are super fast! Thank you so much. Allow me marked as done to this thread. Cheers, --Omotecho (talk) 14:27, 13 June 2023 (UTC)

@Omotecho, haha, the competition is opening up in 2 days' time, hence the haste. I have created a Notes for translators page. Hopefully, it will be of use to you. Robertsky (talk) 15:57, 13 June 2023 (UTC)

Wikimania recordings

Thanks for helping upload Wikimania recordings - I noticed File:Wikimania 2023 - Structured Data Across Wikimedia Successes and Learnings.webm did not have audio. Would you be able to re-encode? Thanks :) Jon Kolbert (talk) 14:10, 5 September 2023 (UTC)

@Jon Kolbert that's strange. I will have it reencoded. Robertsky (talk) 17:00, 5 September 2023 (UTC)
@Jon Kolbert I have uploaded the re-encoded version. Thanks for pinging me. :) Robertsky (talk) 01:40, 6 September 2023 (UTC)

Dagbani Spell4Wiki audio files with Wrong ISO code renaming request

Hi Robertsky, These files are recorded using Spell4Wiki, Spell4Wiki recording default language is Tamil (ta). For Other languages, we should choose language in Spell4Wiki App. The Users mistakenly recorded in default language (Tamil), So these filenames are appearing like "Ta-that word.ogg". But these all are not Tamil language, These all are Dagbani language (dag) confirmed by Dnshitobu. Please kindly do file renaming for these files, rename as for Example: Ta-example.ogg --> Dag-example.ogg List of files are listed in this spreadsheet. Thank you Sriveenkat (talk) 14:51, 29 November 2023 (UTC)

@SriveenkatThank you for the effort. I want to believe there are more and maybe if there is a category of Ta-.ogg files, we could check out for more. Dnshitobu (talk) 17:54, 29 November 2023 (UTC)
@Dnshitobu/@Sriveenkat: I will work on the files in these couple of days. Do let me know if it is possible to add these files to a specific category for easier processing. Robertsky (talk) 03:34, 30 November 2023 (UTC)
Ok I will do it Sriveenkat (talk) 03:46, 30 November 2023 (UTC)
@Sriveenkat, there seems to be a bunch of duplicates. see User:Robertsky/sandbox. Robertsky (talk) 15:33, 30 November 2023 (UTC)
@Sriveenkat @Robertsky The reason could be that after they recorded it with a wrong language code, they might have been prompted or figured it out and corrected tem by recording the duplicates with the right ones. What is the next step? I would suggest deletion of those duplicated files Dnshitobu (talk) 17:47, 30 November 2023 (UTC)
For now, we can consider moving to "Dag-X (2).ogg". Though duplicated, many are by different editors. After you have figured out which one is truly duplicated, i.e. same editors uploading the same audio files, you can tag the files to be deleted with {{Duplicate}} and an admin will evaluate and delete accordingly.

Warning sign
This file may be deleted.
A file that you have uploaded to Wikimedia Commons, File:RJTT Layout Runway 34R Collision.svg, is a derivative work, containing an "image within an image". Examples of such works would include a photograph of a sculpture, a scan of a magazine cover, or a map that has been altered from the original. In each of these cases, the rights of the creator of the original must be considered, as well as those of the creator of the derivative work.

While the description page states who made this derivative work, it currently doesn't specify who created the original work, so the overall copyright status is unclear. If you did not create the original work depicted in this image, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright.

Please edit the file description and add the missing information, or the file may be deleted. If you created the original content yourself, enter this information as the source. If someone else created the content, the source should be the address to the web page where you found it, the name and ISBN of the book you scanned it from, or similar. You should also name the author, provide verifiable information to show that the content is in the public domain or has been published under a free license by its author, and add an appropriate template identifying the public domain or licensing status, if you have not already done so. Please add the required information for this and other files you have uploaded before adding more files. If you need assistance, please ask at the help desk. Thank you!

@Denniss was this issued in error? Robertsky (talk) 18:58, 3 January 2024 (UTC)
No, the original uploader failed to properly source the file and as you uploaded another version you were also informed about the tagging. I did find the original source some time later and made the required changes. Denniss (talk) 20:55, 3 January 2024 (UTC)
@Denniss ah.. I see. thanks for catching up on the work here. I was getting sleepy from the night (and recovering still from a stomach flu (I think, gotta see a doc when the day breaks) to continue on here. Robertsky (talk) 21:01, 3 January 2024 (UTC)
File:Wikimedia Hackathon 2024 20240505 RSKY 02.jpg has been listed at Commons:Deletion requests so that the community can discuss whether it should be kept or not. We would appreciate it if you could go to voice your opinion about this at its entry.

If you created this file, please note that the fact that it has been proposed for deletion does not necessarily mean that we do not value your kind contribution. It simply means that one person believes that there is some specific problem with it, such as a copyright issue. Please see Commons:But it's my own work! for a guide on how to address these issues.

Please remember to respond to and – if appropriate – contradict the arguments supporting deletion. Arguments which focus on the nominator will not affect the result of the nomination. Thank you!
