Bot's mistake

Hi. There was a completely different problem than "grouping categories". --Jan Kameníček (talk) 02:34, 1 January 2017 (UTC)

Hi @Jan.Kamenicek: This wasn't bot's mistake. [[Category:]] is a cat [[:Category:]] is a link. I don't think it could be detected automatically if the users want the file in the category or just a link if placed in the information templates. There are some users which are placing categories everywhere in the filedescription page, which may cause some other tools to fail. --Steinsplitter (talk) 08:52, 1 January 2017 (UTC)

Deleting image

Greetings,

I logged into my account and found out that the image that I uploaded was deleted. Please guide me why it was deleted though it's our photo (for the project I work at). It was taken by my team, designed specially for us and we have total right to use it and nobody else does.

Large bucket cats and marking as uncategorized

Hi, I have changed Category:Photographs by the National Assembly of Ecuador to be visible. This became an issue when large numbers of the photos were marked as uncategorized. Though the convention is to make 'photographs by photographer' categories hidden, when the images are planned to be left in this category as a bucket category, I suggest we break the convention. The Ecuador photos are a good case in point, as the people and places may be significant but we lack large numbers of volunteers with an understanding of Ecuadorian politics to make good categories and do the categorization. -- (talk) 12:34, 5 January 2017 (UTC)

Hi @: , Sounds reasonable :-) --Steinsplitter (talk) 12:37, 5 January 2017 (UTC)

CommonsDelinker-commands-filemovers

Ciao Steinsplitter! buon anno!

Ho un dubbio sulla pagina User:CommonsDelinker/commands/filemovers. Ho notato che i file rinominati vengono direttamente corretti da CommonsDelinker, senza che vi sia bisogno di aggiungerli ai commands. Non è che questa pagina è deprecata adesso? --Ruthven (msg) 13:57, 5 January 2017 (UTC)

Ciao, Questo funziona solo per utenti che sono admin. Se un untente non è admin (=non può modificare CDC) il repalcement command si trova a /filemovers. Ma si deve sempre aggiungerli su /commands. --Steinsplitter (talk) 14:14, 5 January 2017 (UTC)
Sicuro? Ricordo che quando non ero admin e cambiavo nome ai file, il CommonsDelinker seguiva poco dopo. Vuol dire che c'era un admin pronto ad aggiornare la lista dei file? Dico questo perché, se controlli la lista dei file con il nome da cambiare, il nuovo nome ha i link entranti già aggiornati prima di essere passato a commands, mentre il vecchio nome non ha più i link entranti. --Ruthven (msg) 17:13, 5 January 2017 (UTC)
Sicuro, é stato sempre cosi. Non é stato nessun cambiamento nel delinker. --Steinsplitter (talk) 17:20, 5 January 2017 (UTC)
Ok, grazie. Allora mi occuperò più spesso dei comandi degli utenti filemover. Ciao! --Ruthven (msg) 20:14, 5 January 2017 (UTC)

Rename

Aloha! Zum Neuen Jahre gleich 'ne Anfrage: Kannst Du ein Mass-Rename tools basteln? Z.B. in Category:2013 CSCC Winter Autocross Ice Cup sind 115 files die ich gerne umbenennen wuerde. Von Hand habe ich da ehrlich gesagt wenig Lust zu. Ich habe mit VFC rumgebastelt, wuerde zur not wahrscheinlich irgendwie gehen. Mit subst:pagename und solchen Kruecken. Ob Dein tool Teile des alten Dateinamens behalten kann oder einfach komplett neue macht ist mir im Moment eigentlich wurscht. :-) Hast Du eine Idee wie man das loesen kann? --Hedwig in Washington (mail?) 04:59, 9 January 2017 (UTC)

bot rotation...

... didn't do well here: File:Sampa rendada MASP.jpg. - Jmabel ! talk 01:12, 19 January 2017 (UTC)

@Jmabel: Following the update (on 5 October 2011) of our server-side software (MediaWiki) Rotatebot takes the EXIF-specified orientation into account (and helps you to solve the problems with this change; more info at Commons:Rotation). Consequently, the degree parameter needs to be specified based on the thumbnails of the files. If the EXIF orientation is wrong, the file rotation might be wrong as well (Rotate the file by hand, or add again the rotation template). --Steinsplitter (talk) 11:45, 19 January 2017 (UTC)

Consolidation

Hi Stein. Do you have a quick way to move the 1000 subcats in Category:Media needing categories in use in galleries to the more accurate Category:Media needing categories requiring human attention? It's strange to have these daily categories in two separate parent categories, and the images in the first one aren't in use in any galleries anyways. I have no idea how that category came into being, but it's meaningless. lNeverCry 01:57, 21 January 2017 (UTC)

Hi, User talk:CommonsDelinker/commands#Category_move_commands --Steinsplitter (talk) 07:49, 21 January 2017 (UTC)
@INeverCry: Just noticed it won't work because the category is added by a template which i changed now. It might take a wile until the cache is purged on all cats. --Steinsplitter (talk) 20:34, 21 January 2017 (UTC)
Thanks. At one time the two main categories were separated into one needing human attention and the other needing bot attention. I expected the bot ones to eventually show up in the human attention cat, but then that strange galleries cat showed up. I appreciate the help old friend. It'll be much easier for me to work and consolidate within one main category than two. lNeverCry 20:45, 21 January 2017 (UTC)

SLA

Moin Chef,
was ist auf Commons eigentlich das Äquivalent zum SLA, und wo finde ich das? Hintergrund: Ich lade z.Zt. nach und nach Bilder aus einem von WMDE finanzierten Drohnenvideo hoch und habe dabei zwei Fehler bei der Zuordnung gemacht: File:STAPP 024 San Fernando Cocoyea.jpg zeigt den Stadtteil Pleasantville und nur ein kleines Eckchen von Cocoyea, und File:STAPP 025 San Fernando Cocoyea.jpg zeigt zu etwa 1/3 Pleasantville und ansonsten Cocoyea. Ich habe nachträglich zwei bessere Bilder ausgeschnitten, von denen eines zu 100% Cocoyea und das andere zu 100% Pleasantville zeigt. ich würde die beiden o.g. Bilder gerne gelöscht haben, damit sie nicht als Leichen rumliegen und damit meine Benennung stringent bleibt, und die neuen Bilder als "STAPP 024 San Fernando Cocoyea" und "STAPP 025 San Fernando Pleasantville" hochladen. Ist das irgendwie zu bewerkstelligen?

Brauche Hilfe

Da macht ein Benutzer meine Kategoriesierungen rückgängig und geht zerstörischer weise im Kategoriesystem um. Siehe https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Charlesjsharp

Er hält sich nicht an dem Baustein {{Categorize}} (category:Birds of Gambia ist überladen) und macht die feinere Einsortierung in die tiefste Kategorie und zusätzlich das Aufnahmejahr rückgängig. Finde das sehr unverschämt und am Rande von Vandalismus. Bitte ihm mal die Regeln erklären (so tief wie möglich kategorisieren). Danke für die Bemühungen um Vermittlung.--Atamari (talk) 10:51, 31 January 2017 (UTC)

ok. --Steinsplitter (talk) 11:44, 31 January 2017 (UTC)
Er meint im Rehcht zu sein, ich kenne mich mit solchen Kategorien nicht aus. Du kannst ihn aber auf COM:AN/U melden, solte die Kategorisierung tatsächlich falsch sein. --Steinsplitter (talk) 12:27, 31 January 2017 (UTC)
Im Recht? Es gilt die allgemeine Empfehlung so tief wie möglich zu kategorisieren - noch mal dazu, dass die erwänhnte Kategorie überfüllt ist. Er revertierte mich ohne Ansprache und machte zusätzlich meine Kategoriesierung Photo nach Jahr rückgängig. Ich finde, das sollte nicht so einfach akzeptiert werden. Ich fühle mich genau so im Recht. --Atamari (talk) 12:45, 31 January 2017 (UTC)
@Atamari: Grundsätzlich ist das so, jap. Du kannst es gerne auf AN/U ansprechen, auch in Deutsch. Ich kenne mich mit Vogelzeugs (Da haben gewisse Categorybäume oft eigene Regeln) aber zu wenig aus, sorry. --Steinsplitter (talk) 12:49, 31 January 2017 (UTC)


(nach BK) p.s. Bei einigen Vogelkategorien wird sehr wohl nach Aufnahmeort unterschieden: Category:Cygnus_olor_by_country (Beispiel) - am Besten wir machen es gleich richtig. In ein paar Jahren wird so usus sein. --Atamari (talk) 12:50, 31 January 2017 (UTC)
@Atamari: Wie gesagt, ich bin da nicht 100% drinnen. Ich kann ihm das auch nicht einfach so verbieten, man muss es melden und dann wird es ihm vielleicht verboten. --Steinsplitter (talk) 12:57, 31 January 2017 (UTC)

ogg -> ogv

Dein Bot hat File:Kulturerbe herkules fontäne.ogg nach File:Kulturerbe herkules fontäne.ogv verschoben. Wie kann ich nun den Transcode-Status und die Einbindungen auf anderen Projekten sehen?

Die ogg-Datei enthält gegen Ende einige Artefakte. Ich habe eine webm-Version, bei der dieser Fehler nicht auftritt (ansonsten identisch). Wäre es möglich, File:Kulturerbe herkules fontäne.ogv nach File:Kulturerbe herkules fontäne.webm zu verschieben und dann könnte ich die webm-Version als neue Version hochladen?

--° (Gradzeichen) 03:36, 1 February 2017 (UTC)

@° and GFHund: Beim transcode scheint was kaputt zu sein (nicht wegen den aktuellen verschiebungen, sondern schon länger), ich habs mal gemeldet. @°: Du kannst die webm gerne als solche hochladen :) --Steinsplitter (talk) 12:50, 1 February 2017 (UTC)
Hmm, ich habe ausgewählt: Neue Version hochladen, die webm-Datei ausgewählt, eine Beschreibung der Änderung eingetragen, (ein Lizenz-Feld gibt es da nicht), auf hochladen geklickt, abgewartet.

Verschiebungen von ogg nach ogv

Hallo, was sollen die Verschiebungen der Videodateien im Artikel Chess Classic? Jetzt funktioniert nichts mehr! Die Video-Dateien sind nicht mehr abspielbar. Oder war das nur ein erster Schritt? Wie soll es nun weitergehen? --GFHund (talk) 05:25, 1 February 2017 (UTC)

Es wird noch etwas kompliziertet. Mit Windows 10 sind die ogv-Dateien abspielbar, jedoch nicht mit Windows 8.1, was eigentlich nicht sein darf, es sei denn Wikipedia will, dass die Leser auf Windows 10 umstellen müssen. Ich lud ogg-Dateien vor mehr als 5 Jahren nach Commons hoch, was anderes war damals nicht erlaubt. Das Abspielen hat auch immer funktioniert, erst als Du sie nach ogv verschoben hast, nicht mehr. Ob ich meine Originaldateien noch finde, weiß ich nicht. --GFHund (talk) 14:58, 1 February 2017 (UTC)
@GFHund: Das ist keine ogg sondern eine ogv (ogg was falsch ist und eher auf win nicht funktioniert) ist plattforumunabhänig. Vermutlich will dein WIN auf eine transkodierte zugreifen, was zur zeit kaputt ist und gemeldet wurde. --Steinsplitter (talk) 15:11, 1 February 2017 (UTC)
Was ist keine ogg? Vor 5 Jahren waren nur ogg erlaubt! Siehe zum Beispiel "Rybka-Shredder_2009_Mainz.ogv ‎(Ogg-Audio-/Video-Datei, Theora/Vorbis, Länge: 1 min 2 s, 320×240 Pixel, 768 kbps insgesamt)". --GFHund (talk) 15:17, 1 February 2017 (UTC)
Es ist ein Ogg-Audio(!!!) mit einer Video-Datei = ogv (ogv für video/ogg) Und schon vor 5 Jahren gab es ogv. Die änderung in ogv bringt nur vorteile, keine nachteile. Sorry, @GFHund: ich streite wirklich nicht um Fakten rum. Schönen Abend noch :) --Steinsplitter (talk) 15:26, 1 February 2017 (UTC)
Ps.: Ich habe absolut kein Interesse daran igrendetwas zu verschelchtern, ich bin mir sicher das Problem löst sich bald. --Steinsplitter (talk) 15:32, 1 February 2017 (UTC)
Ich lud eben diese ogv-Datei auf meinen PC herunter. Hier auf meinem PC (mit Windows 8.1) kann ich sie abspielen. Das heißt, es liegt wohl ein Wikipedia-Problem vor. Leser mit Windows 10 können sie in Wikipedia abspielen, jedoch die Leser mit Windows 8.1 nicht. Ich habe beide Windows-System ausprobiert. --GFHund (talk) 15:34, 1 February 2017 (UTC)
Anschließend wandelte ich sie auf meinem PC in eine WEBM-Datei um. Danach lud ich diese WEBM nach Commons hoch, und zwar unter einem leicht geänderten Namen (Rybka-Shredder_2009_Mainz_n.webm), und sie ist abspielbar von Lesern der Wikipedia. --GFHund (talk) 16:06, 1 February 2017 (UTC)

Persönlicher Angriff

Moin Steinsplitter,
entschuldige wenn Du Dich persönlich angegriffen fühlst, das war nicht meine Absicht.
Ich möchte einfach nur, das Du als Vernichter von Wissen, denn das ist es ja wenn Du Bilder zum löschen vorschlägst, etwas sorgfältiger arbeitest.
Was machen wir jetzt mit dem zweiten Teil Deiner Löschliste? Soll ich diese Liste hier Löschliste (Teil II) wie den ersten Teil einstellen. Da ich ab morgen wieder arbeiten muss, werde ich nicht mehr die Zeit finden jedes Bild einzeln nachzugehen.

Und noch mal, entschuldige Bitte, es war nicht meine Absicht Dich irgendwie zu beleidigen, ich möchte Dich nur bitten etwas umsichtiger beim vernichten von Wissen/Bildern zu sein. Tschüß -- Ra Boe watt?? 09:50, 14 February 2017 (UTC)

Hallo Raboe001, sofern die abgebildete Person nachweislich relevant (im Projektrahmen) ist kann die un-deletion des entsprechenden Fotos beantragt werden. Bitte auch daran denken das Commons jedes Monat mit Tonnen von Müll flutetet wird und daher Löschungen unvermeidbar sind. Wir wollen doch nicht das Commons in eine Mülldeponie verfällt. Und wie schon gesagt wäre es sehr wünschenswert wenn Bernd die Bilder entsprechend richtig Kategorisiert und eine gute Bildbeschreibung hinzufügt, dann werden jene erst gar nicht zum Löschen vorgeschlagen. lg [PS: Ich denke nicht das "Wissen" vernichtet wird.] --Steinsplitter (talk) 13:30, 14 February 2017 (UTC)
Bückeburg
Moin Steinsplitter, das mit der Relevanz ist für mich immer schwer zu begreifen, denn sämtlich in der Öffentlichkeit von Bernd fotografierten Leute sind und werden relevant. Neustes Beispiel ist Kazim Akboga ist er wirklich nicht relevant? Ich staune oft welche Bilder von mir verwendet werden, hätte ich die Schere in meinem Kopf vor dem hochladen angesetzt, wäre Artikel nicht bebildert und ja ich ich schludere auch mit den Beschreibungen weil ich es einfach nicht weiß, Bestes Beispiel gerade mein Spaziergang in Bückeburg 2011, ich fotografierte ein unspektakuläreres Haus, erst Jahre später konnten Fachleute sagen das es die alte Synagoge ist, die ich fotografiert habe. Hätte ich diese Bild nicht hochgeladen ......
Ja es wird Commons mit Müll geflutet, in Asien benutzten sie Commons als kostenloser Datendienst. Wir sind uns einig unscharfe, schlechte, sexistischen uvm. Bilder, klar weg damit, je schneller je besser. Aber nur weil man nicht weiß ob diese Person relevant seit könnte, lasse ich die Finger weg.
Ich gehe gerne mit Bernd die Bilder durch, aber er wird umlagert von Prominenten der Stadt und des Landes, wir könnten alleine in Hannover 5 Bernds gebrauchen um Wünsche zu erfüllen und Artikel sowie Bilder von der Stadt und seinen Leuten zu machen.
Ich würde es jetzt nicht unbedingt mit der Bücherverbrennung vergleichen, aber es wird auf jeden Fall das Vernichten von Wissen bzw. die Chance eine Person, ein Ort oder eine Gegebenheit zu dokumentieren.
Es gäbe noch viele Einwände warum ein Bild relevant werden kann, Ilse und Klaus zum Beispiel sind Benutzer, die gerne ihr Bild hätte, Du hast es löschen lassen klar weil Du es nicht besser wusstest. Pech für die Leute, aber es ist halt schwer direkt mit diesen Leuten vor Ort zu erklären warum das Bild nicht gewünscht wird, es ist was anderes immer mit den Menschen in Kontakt zu stehen.

Help needed

Hi Stein. I hope you can help me. I'd like to get every file I've ever uploaded to Commons (about 45,000) into Category:Files uploaded by INeverCry. I've tried with VisualFileChange myself today and a few months ago, and I've failed miserably both times. If you can do it without much trouble, I'd really appreciate it. If it would be too much work, can you just delete the category and I'll forget about it? lNeverCry 22:41, 14 February 2017 (UTC)

Hi, Sure. But it might take a while. --Steinsplitter (talk) 17:04, 15 February 2017 (UTC)
@INeverCry: I helped get the category to 40k. There's only 5k left, which are probably the ones you haven't used OAuth for. MCMLXXXIX 21:44, 15 February 2017 (UTC)
Thanks to both of you for the help. That 5,000 are what I uploaded from 2010 to 2012, which were mostly images of writers and illustrations taken from books at archive.org. These are what I had the most trouble getting into the category on my own in past attempts. lNeverCry 01:17, 16 February 2017 (UTC)

Uploads von User:Stkcb

Der Benutzer gehört offenbar zur Marketing-Abteilung von Galerie Karsten Greve und lädt urheberechtlich geschütztes Bildwerk hoch.

O.K. thx --1971markus ⇒ Laberkasten ... 22:34, 16 February 2017 (UTC)

Hallo 1971markus,

eine Marketing-Abteilung gibt es nicht, da Marketing im Kunsthandel generell ab einer gewissen Preisklasse wenig sinnvol ist. Wenn man sich kurz mit der Stellung der Galerie im Kunstmarkt und der vertretenen Künstler auseinandersetzt, sollte man relativ schnell feststellen, wie unangebracht diese Einschätzung ist. Die Bilder wurden von Galerie Karsten Greve zur Nutzung in dem Artikel zur Verfügung gestellt, zumal das aktuelle Foto (zugeparkte Aussenansicht der Galerie in Köln mit Bauzaun) nicht ganz angemessen die architektonische Besonderheit der jeweiligen Ausstellungsräume wiederspiegelt. Nikolai Saoulski arbeitet als Fotograf für die Galerie. Sollte man hier in der Beschreibung seinen Namen hinzufügen? Falls ja, mein Fehler. Von Wilfried Wulff liegt eine schriftliche Zustimmung für die Nutzung des Portraits in dem Artikel vor. Wie kann dieser Nachweis erbacht werden? Screenshot? Danke!

Fehlerkorrektur mit Deinem Bot

Tach Steinsplitter, kannst Du bitte deinen Bot damit beauftragen, den Buchstabendreher zu korrigieren, den alle Dateien unter Category:Pogida demonstration in Potsdam on 2016-03-09 in ihrem Namen aufweisen – nämlich Postdam zu Potsdam?

Und dann gibt es da noch meine Anfrage unter COM:AN#Issue when Template:Invno is used inside of accession number field of Template:Artwork (archiviert unter Commons:Administrators' noticeboard/Archive 62#Issue when Template:Invno is used inside of accession number field of Template:Artwork). Kannst Du dazu vielleicht auch etwas sagen? Wenn dein Bot so etwas nicht kann, wie finde ich heraus, welcher Bot der potentiell richtige wäre? (COM:BOTLIST ist mir bekannt.) — Speravir – 18:32, 21 February 2017 (UTC)

Der Buchstabendreher ist korrigiert, letzteres verstehe ich nicht ganz (habe es nur schnell gelesen und gerade keine zeit mir es genauer anzusehen). lg --Steinsplitter (talk) 18:47, 21 February 2017 (UTC)
Danke fürs Umbenennen. Zum anderen: Ich kann es auch nochmal auf Deutsch schildern. Aber vielleicht reicht zunächst meine Antwort unter de:WP:FZW#Template:Invno? (Wird vermutlich archiviert werden unter de:Wikipedia:Fragen zur Wikipedia/Archiv/2017/Woche 07#Template:Invno.) — Speravir – 03:09, 22 February 2017 (UTC)
Da ich durch eine deiner Bemerkungen weiter oben bemerkt habe, dass VFC jetzt auch auf Suchergebnisse angewendet werden kann, werde ich mir das mal selbst ansehen. — Speravir – 21:48, 23 February 2017 (UTC)

Dein Bot

Moin Steinsplitter, wenn ich das richtig sehe, hat Dein Bot hier alle Fotos von Bernd (die wir noch versuche zu klären was drauf ist) verschoben. Könntest Du mir sagen warum? Tschüß -- Ra Boe watt?? 07:32, 23 February 2017 (UTC)

Geschlossene Anfragen werden Archiviert, das steht aber auch auf der UDEL Seite. Du musst den Admin fragen welcher die UDEL req geschlossen hat. --Steinsplitter (talk) 11:55, 23 February 2017 (UTC)
Moin Steinsplitter, genau das ist das Problem, ich finde kein Admin der das geschlossen hat, den wir sind ja noch im Prozedur der Aufklärung. Tschüß -- Ra Boe watt?? 12:25, 23 February 2017 (UTC)
Ich kann die Bilder auch einzeln wieder aufstellen mit der Bitte um Wiederherstellung.
@Raboe001: Hat jemand geschlossen, ganz offensichtlich, nähmlich von De728631. Desshalb wurde es auch Archiviert. Und wenn andere leute auf geschlossenen Abschnitten editieren kann ich nicht helfen. Daher besteht von meiner Seite kein handlungsbedarf. --Steinsplitter (talk) 14:25, 23 February 2017 (UTC)
.Moin Steinsplitter, danke, ich sehe es eben nicht als geschlossen an und habe auch keine Markierung gesehen. Muss ganz ehrlich sagen, das ich wirklich immer noch angepisst bin, Du kannst Dir den Rest denken. Ich habe jetzt für viele Bilder den Antrag gestellt, De728631 arbeitet sie jetzt einzeln ab. Bernd liegt krank im Bett und wird den Rest noch benennen, wir habe gestern bei offenen Editieren festgestellt, das die meisten Bilder relevant sind, also hast sich die Arbeit von 4-5 Leuten wenigstens gelohnt und ich hoffe Dir haben gestern nicht so oft die Ohren geklingelt. ;) Tschüß -- Ra Boe watt?? 15:33, 23 February 2017 (UTC)
Bei allem Respekt @Raboe001: , objektiv gesehen ist das "verärgert sein" nicht nachvollziehbar da die Formalien für den LA meinerseits eingehalten wurden, hätte man bereits im LA eine sachliche Diskussion geführt und die jetzigen Argumente vorgetragen wäre es nie zu einer Löschung gekommen - es hätte vermutlich sogar eine grobe Zusammenfassung gereicht warum die Abgebildeten relevant sein könnten. Und das ich mich jetzt (bzw. schon nach der unsachlichen Diskussion) raus halte erklärt sich von selbst, die feindselige Attitüde einige dewp Nutzer hat seines dazu beigetragen. Auf Commons sind die Nutzer generell immer lieb zueinander dann kann man die Probleme schön schnell und mit wenig Drama lösen. lg --Steinsplitter (talk) 16:06, 23 February 2017 (UTC)
Moin Steinsplitter, ich erlebe das erste Mail das ein Benutzer Sammellöschungen gemacht hat. Und in einem Zeitraum, wo wir beruflich gerade aus dem Urlaub kommen. Wenn Du für jedes einzelne Bild, einen Löschantrag stellst ist es ok, aber ehrlich Du hast uns mit der großen Anzahl einfach überfahren und das nehme ich Dir übel. Du hast es in 5 Minuten geschafft uns zeitlich sehr unter Druck zu setzen, unseren Ruf in Hannover zu beschädigen, als Unhold bei einigen Wikipediaern zu gelten und so viel Zeit gekostet wie kein andere Wikipedianer vor Dir.
Dabei hätte Dir schon bei den Titeln auffallen können das das wichtige Leute auf den Veranstaltungen sein könnten, Du hättest Bernd kontaktieren können, sagen können so geht es nicht, aber Du hast einfach mal schnell EINEN Antrag gestellt nicht 66, klar kann man da auf den Gedanken kommen das Du Bernd, warum auch immer an den Karren fahren wolltest.
Und Du wunderst Dich das Du angegriffen wirst, das kann ich nicht nachvollziehen. Wie gesagt Du hast in meinen Augen versucht Wissen auf einen Schlag und in Masse zu vernichten, ohne lange drüber nachzudenken und das ist in meinen Augen gefährlich. Ich erhoffe mir vor eine Löschung eine Nachricht, ein Versuch der Klärung oder weiß der Teufel, irgendwas aber die Löschung eines Bildes, wenn es nicht grottig/Urheberverletzung ist, sollte der letzte Weg sein und nicht der Erste wie bei der Aktion.
Daher meine Bitte, lass bitte Sammellöschungen, sprech mit dem Besitzer des Bildes, warum Du es gelöscht haben willst und zwar für jedes und bitte nicht zu viel pro Tag/Woche, es gibt Leute die sitzen nicht jeden Tag am PC haben ein Leben, Familie fernab der WP.
Du sieht wie viel Bilder wirklich noch gelöscht sind, hat es sich gelohnt, die ganze verbrannte Erde, für mich jedenfalls nicht.
Ich versuche höflich und freundlich zu bleiben, keinen persönlich anzugreifen, erlaube mir aber auch zu sagen das Aktionen wie diese zu einer Frustration und was noch schlimmer ist, Fronten führen können.
Gerade in letzter Zeit erlebe ich das verstärkt und das ist nicht gut für uns und dem Projekt. Das möchte ich nicht und von daher nicht für ungut, hoffe wir trinke mal ein Tee, Bier oder Wein auf einer Wiki-/ AdminCon zusammen und vergessen die Geschichte so schnell es geht, sobald Bernd für die restlichen Bilder Erklärungen geschrieben hat. :) Tschüß -- Ra Boe watt?? 17:52, 23 February 2017 (UTC)
Steinsplitter kann hier tatsächlich nichts dafür. Ich habe diese Diskussion gestern geschlossen, nachdem ich dir die Fotos gemailt hatte. Meine Begründung war dabei, dass es für mich eben kein Antrag auf Wiederherstellung war, sondern nur die Anfrage auf Weiterleitung der Bilder. Darum ist der ganze Thread auch vom Bot archiviert worden. De728631 (talk) 18:01, 23 February 2017 (UTC)
Moin De728631, das habe ich ja dann auch gemerkt, es war halt nur blöd, wir saßen gestern beim OE bis spät in der Nacht um für jeden Bild eine Begründung zu schreiben und dann bekomme ich einen Anruf heute Morgen das die Bilder weg sind, das hat natürlich für mehr Feuer Adrenalin gesorgt.
Ich habe sie dann auf meiner Seite kopiert und einzeln die Anträge auf Wiederherstellung gemacht. Alles kein Problem, nur eben sehr zeitintensiv. Ist das Kind einmal in den Brunnen gefallen sollte es schwimmen lernen. Kein Problem ich danke Dir für Deine schnelle Hilfe gestern, damit wir die Bilder sortieren konnte, weil Bernd die bearbeiteten Bilder (wie ich auch) immer löscht und nur die Originale behält. Bernd liegt jetzt erst mal flach und wir machen nächsten Wochen den Rest der Bilder. Tschüß -- Ra Boe watt?? 18:15, 23 February 2017 (UTC)

Seitenschutz für Subtemplate

Hallo, Steinsplitter, du hast am 16. Februar laut Änderungskommentar den Seitenschutz-Status für Template:Occupation/en temporär verringert, aber danach nicht wieder verschärft. Nicht, dass ich darüber böse wäre (wobei dann mehrere Leute diese Seite unter Beobachtung haben sollten), aber war das Deine Absicht?

Hallo A.Savin, auf deiner JS Seite entstehen "nun" potentiell zwei Fehler (da neulich geändert). Wobei genau genommen der 3. Fehler (die anderen beiden erübrigt) ist die 1. Zeile stehen zu lassen, da wohl identisch mit VFC. Kurz gesagt: einfach die 1. Zeile aus deiner JS löschen: MfG -- User: Perhelion 23:30, 15 May 2017 (UTC)

VFC and .tif, etc

I just found out the hard way that VFC doesn't like those tif files that Fae uploads with the long names, like File:DETAIL VIEW SHOWING ARCH RING AND SPRING LINE, LOOKING FROM BELOW - Allentown Road Bridge, Spanning Skippack Creek on Allentown Road, Franconia, Montgomery County, PA HAER PA,46-FRANC,1-12.tif for instance... I had to go through about 150 of them with AWB. Once I got them out of the way, everything worked fine again. This leads me to a question. VFC is an important program here on Commons. I use it every day for DRs and CSD. With Rillke retired (he hasn't edited in 8 months and is going to lose adminship in a few weeks), who's going to take it over, if anybody? lNeverCry 09:27, 19 February 2017 (UTC)

Maybe someone who is familiar with JS can help, perhaps @Zhuyifei1999: (who edited VFC just recently). --Steinsplitter (talk) 18:48, 21 February 2017 (UTC)
@INeverCry: What's the exact parameters you used to do the edit? I'll see if I can reproduce the issue and hopefully fix it. --Zhuyifei1999 (talk) 03:08, 22 February 2017 (UTC)
@Zhuyifei1999: I tried pretty much everything, starting with the default configuration. My fumblings can be seen here. Only the tiff/tif files with really long names gave me a problem. The tiff/tif files with short names went through custom replace without any problems. lNeverCry 03:26, 22 February 2017 (UTC)
One way you might try reproducing the problem would be to run VFC on Category:Files from the Historic American Buildings Survey. lNeverCry 03:28, 22 February 2017 (UTC)
@INeverCry: Well, I'll just test on the mentioned tiff given above. Is Special:Diff/234257261 the edit you attempted with VFC? Is it "custom replace"? What are in the "pattern to match" and "text to insert instead" fields? And, if possible, do you have the error message? --Zhuyifei1999 (talk) 05:14, 22 February 2017 (UTC)
@Zhuyifei1999: Yeah, the custom replace was year=2014 with year=2015. The error message was bright red at bottom left and trailed off the screen. I can't remember what the error was, but VFC wouldn't perform any action while those files were in the category. Once I processed them all with AWB, every thing was good again. lNeverCry 05:53, 22 February 2017 (UTC)
Hmm, works for me, using VFC on Firefox 51.0.1, on User:Zhuyifei1999/sandbox. What browser are you using? In any case, the error message would be very helpful as well. --Zhuyifei1999 (talk) 10:04, 22 February 2017 (UTC)
I use the latest version of Chrome. Do you have a list of error messages for VFC? I would know the error message I got if I saw it again. lNeverCry 20:32, 22 February 2017 (UTC)
There is a list near An error occurred while starting the request an determining the contributor. Nothing has been modified. on MediaWiki:VisualFileChange.js, but the actual detailed error message could be generated from anywhere: MediaWiki API, browser Javascript API, some logic error in VFC; these more detailed error messages could be more helpful than those built in to VFC, but having any error message is more helpful than being unable to reproduce the issue. Regarding Chrome: I don't think I got Chrome installed, but I guess Chromium is similar enough to Chrome. I'll test it in a few hours when I get some time. --Zhuyifei1999 (talk) 05:31, 23 February 2017 (UTC)
Can't reproduce on Chromium 55.0.2883.87, though the latest version is 56.0.2924 --Zhuyifei1999 (talk) 11:30, 23 February 2017 (UTC)

Hi Steins,

michaelkheng here. I was just wondering if you can give me a hand. I was requested by Scott to upload the 17 images to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yandra.

So i uploaded those under my Wikipedia name, now hes given me his account details to change the uploader name to his name. What do i need to do to change the name from myself to his account - scottcoler

I have looked everywhere, not sure how. When i tried to reload the images, under his name, it says error with duplication images.

thanks in advance. Michael

Batch uploading

Hello @Steinsplitter: ,

On the bot requests page someone asked for help with batch uploading. Various files from thenounproject.com, a website providing images under CC license, are meant to be imported. While reading the Commons rules for such case, it is said that a previous request should be made on the Batch Uploading page first in order to discuss the task.

For running my bot tests, do I need to undergo this request beforehand? Thank you for your time. --African Hope (talk) 18:48, 7 March 2017 (UTC)

It was the wrong rotate by 180 degrees. Please, return former situation.--KSK (talk) 20:32, 8 March 2017 (UTC)

@SKas: Following the update (on 5 October 2011) of our server-side software (MediaWiki) Rotatebot takes the EXIF-specified orientation into account (and helps you to solve the problems with this change; more info at Commons:Rotation). Consequently, the degree parameter needs to be specified based on the thumbnails of the files. If the EXIF orientation is wrong, the file rotation might be wrong as well (Rotate the file by hand, or add again the rotation template). --Steinsplitter (talk) 14:08, 9 March 2017 (UTC)

Wrong renaming of category

Hi, Steinsplitter.

You have recently renamed category Ivan Piddubny to Ivan Poddubny commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Ivan_Poddubny

It was not a mistake, you shouldn`t do this. If he was russian, that will be correct, but he is Ukrainian, and right spelling is Piddubnyy. Please, rename it to the previous version.--Viiictorrr (talk) 16:18, 9 March 2017 (UTC)

Hallo Steinsplitter, kann man die Meldung des Filters (MediaWiki:Abusefilter-warning-cwuploads) etwas deutlicher gestalten? In der dewiki schlagen immer wieder Nutzer auf, die dank VisualEditor und cross-wiki-upload in den Filter laufen und mit der Meldung offensichtlich überfordert sind.

Hi, Steinsplitter. Hast du da vielleicht als Technikversteher eine Ahnung? Bei diesem Foto von mir habe ich eben eine neue, vermeintlich verbesserte Version hochgeladen. Klickt man auf 100% Maßstab, ist denn auch alles OK, so wie bei mir auf der Festplatte halt. Aber in der Vorschau, d.h. in der 600x600 Pixel Ansicht, die einem angezeigt wird wenn man die Datei(beschreibungs)seite aufruft, sieht es jetzt einfach grauenvoll aus!! Der Himmel sieht aus als wäre er von irtgendwelchen Kompressionsartefakten zerfressen, der Turm, als wäre da drumherum kaputtgeschärft, etc.pp..

.ogg > .opus moves

I wrote a user script about a year ago on Wiktionary for quickly uploading audio pronunciation files. I see that your bot has moved a lot of the uploaded files from .ogg to .opus, with the summary "MIME type mismatches file extension. https://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc5334.txt" (for example File:Zh-cmn-生日快樂.opus). I don't know much about MIME types, and I just had the script upload as .ogg because the type was audio/ogg, and the files seemed to be working like that, so I assumed that was right. Was this an error? Should the script be naming all uploaded files with .opus by default? --Yair rand (talk) 20:08, 5 April 2017 (UTC)

If all files uploded by your script are audio/opus then the extension should be .opus, that would be perfect! Thanks --Steinsplitter (talk) 05:40, 6 April 2017 (UTC)

User:Thgoiter discovered that I had wrongly identified the ravens in this picture, using an out-of-date source. Using a more up-to-date source, we identified the birds are actually Jubilee and Munin. I have confirmed this via Facebook message with Chris Skaife, Ravenmaster at the Tower. Therefore, the correct name for this file is

Note that as well as the names of the birds, I've dropped the "a" off the end of the date, which was a typo when I uploaded. I could do the page move request but am concerned that doing so right now might break the POTY. Clearly, we want the right name for the file should the image get into the top 3 and be announced as one of the winners. So when would be the best time to change it. Are you confident to do it now? One concern is that if we don't do it soon, someone less competent might do it, and make a mess. I assume there will be redirects left behind.

Wiki Loves Earth 2017

Hallo Steinsplitter,

bald startet wieder Wiki Loves Earth Deutschland, unser Fotowettbewerb rund um das Themengebiet Naturschutz. Wir würden uns freuen, wenn Du wieder mitmachst.

Bilder können vom 1. bis 31. Mai 2017 eingereicht werden.

WLE Deutschland kooperiert dieses Jahr mit der Deutschen UNESCO-Kommission (DUK). Die bestplatzierten Bilder von Biosphärenreservaten, Weltnaturerbe und UNESCO-Geoparks sollen auf http://www.unesco.de präsentiert werden.

Die allgemeinen Wünsche der Organisatoren haben sich nicht geändert: Schutzgebiet oder -objekt angeben, Originalauflösung, keine Signaturen oder ähnliches im Bild.

Die Suche nach geeigneten Motiven erleichtern unter anderem neue Listen aller deutschen Naturwaldreservate oder Listen der Naturdenkmale in Baden-Württemberg, im Saarland, Hessen und Brandenburg. Stöbere einfach mal bei Wikipedia, z. B. auf der Karte.

Eine Vorjury wird die Vorauswahl der Bilder übernehmen. Hier kannst Du Dich ebenfalls gerne beteiligen. Bei Interesse bitte unter WLE-Vorjury eintragen, das Passwort kommt per E-Mail.

Viel Spaß und Erfolg wünscht im Namen des Organisationsteams,

Bot frequency in archiving Commons:Undeletion requests

Hi. Thank you for running your bot. What is a fair and accurate description of its archiving frequency? "daily" seems inaccurate, as it seems to run as frequently as hourly. Perhaps "daily and whenever Steinsplitter kicks it"?   — Jeff G. ツ 19:32, 15 April 2017 (UTC)

It depends of the cron, the severs mood and how old the sections are. So daily makes sense, otherwise users will be confused imho. But i don't really care if there is written daily or half-day, or, or but not hourly. --Steinsplitter (talk) 19:44, 15 April 2017 (UTC)

Hi An account used a personal attack against me. We are in the presence of contributors of circumstances, who are in hibernation for months and then all come back at the same time when a discussion is revived by one of them. I take the initiative to argue but they just come to oppose without arguments. It can not go on. --Panam2014 (talk) 16:28, 16 April 2017 (UTC)

Perform batch task

Hello, I've currently, since a few days, a very bad and temporary internet connection, maybe that are the damages due to bad weather. My issue is, when connected, I want to "Perform batch task" the only result I have is a white screen with

[object HTMLScriptElement]

Have you some thoughts of comfort? Christian Ferrer (talk) 05:06, 27 April 2017 (UTC)

Hello, Which Browser do you use? Do you see something special in the console? --Steinsplitter (talk) 11:00, 27 April 2017 (UTC)
I use IE and see nothing special, the link "Just try it without installing" in Help:VisualFileChange.js work well and I was able to tag a file but I am still unable to do it with the "Perform batch task" link. Christian Ferrer (talk) 11:59, 27 April 2017 (UTC)
A suggestion: Don't use IE. :-) --Steinsplitter (talk) 13:33, 27 April 2017 (UTC)
Now I've not even anymore the link "Perform batch task", nor with IE neither with Firefox, + a terribly bad internet connexion. I will try to fix my issues this week end. Thanks you. --Christian Ferrer (talk) 19:36, 27 April 2017 (UTC)
What Firefox are you using? I remember using VFC with Firefox 52.1 (ESR), with the OS Windows XP. It works fine for me. Looks like I am having false memories. :) I am gonna try using VFC with Firefox 52.1 (ESR) in my PC tomorrow on Sunday. I am sure it will work, since I believe Mozilla can't screw up with this. Poké95 09:00, 28 April 2017 (UTC)
If your internet is highly slow it might be possible that stuff from bits.wm is missing. As far i know IE/FF don't use the same JS engine, thus it cannot be the browser but your inetconnection or a security plugin or js code collision. --Steinsplitter (talk) 10:29, 28 April 2017 (UTC)

  • My internet connexion is better now but I still have "[object HTMLScriptElement]" with IE, and with Mozilla Firefox I've not even the link "Perfom batch task".... I'm still searching.... my code seems ok too. Christian Ferrer (talk) 05:24, 29 April 2017 (UTC)
  • I tested now using Firefox 55 (which is Nightly), and I can't access VFC. The same too with Firefox 7.3 (iOS). I am sure Firefox 54, 53 and 52 has the same problem too. There was no error message though when I tried to access VFC using the "Perform batch task" link. Poké95 02:51, 30 April 2017 (UTC)
See [1] my issue with IE is fixed, I usually don't use Firefox. Christian Ferrer (talk) 12:45, 30 April 2017 (UTC)
@Christian Ferrer: Ok, But i still suggest you not to use ie. --Steinsplitter (talk) 13:14, 30 April 2017 (UTC)
I like my habits :) What browser do you suggest? Christian Ferrer (talk) 13:16, 30 April 2017 (UTC)
Firefox - you can customize the browser interface, install addons etc. or Chrome or Opera. --Steinsplitter (talk) 13:28, 30 April 2017 (UTC)

In the "Transparency" section there are mentioned [[Special:AbuseLog/77]] and [[Special:AbuseLog/78]] which do not make sense to me – these are very old log entries triggered by rule #12. I believe that the first link should be replaced with [[Special:AbuseFilter/96]] or https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:AbuseLog&wpSearchFilter=96 and the second with [[Special:AbuseFilter/77]] or https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:AbuseLog&wpSearchFilter=77. --jdx Re: 12:11, 28 April 2017 (UTC)

Technical question

Hiya! This morning I couldn't do any deleting on Commons because my batch task and delete keys vanished! But don't worry, that's part is fixed. However, it's almost as if [2] is not running - or has an error in it - because I'm still not seeing "view administrator backlog" on the watchlist. There was a change in the code discussed at https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?diff=242253743 for the visual file change and one click archiver which I implemented on my *js page. As you can see I commented out the old version, and added the new version. At that point the batch task and delete abilities which had vanished came back -- but only for my own account!! "View administrator backlog" is still gone. Also missing are the "speedy", "no permission", "no license" and "no source" buttons from left edge. I was wondering if you had a magic wand to get that to work again? Or something I can poke? It's really hard to do anything without the tools. Thanks for all your help! Ellin Beltz (talk) 04:58, 29 April 2017 (UTC)

@Ellin Beltz: Hi, Does the problem still exists? Maybe Zhuyifei1999 has a idea, he is good in js :). --Steinsplitter (talk) 11:15, 29 April 2017 (UTC)
Hi: I tried every line of code on all the linked pages, you can see them // "commented out in order on my .js page. I surely hope that you or Zhuyifei1999 or ~riley or someone can help figure out how to get this running. I was fine until one day last week, when it didn't work. I assumed it was a problem in transmission, came back next day, still didn't work. Now approaching 5 days or more, and still not working despite me trying to run lines of code from various other people's pages (as shown in the list of commented versions). I'm not a java programmer. I have no idea why this doesn't work - only that I simply can't do anything here without the tools to do it. Hopefully someone will have a simple answer after they look at the js page and figure it out. I have no clue, sorry. I only know it worked - I didn't change anything on that page, and then it didn't work. I've tried a list of various code lines, none repair the issues. I don't have "no source," "no permission" and "copyright violation" and "batch task" in left hand tool bar. I no longer have "view administrator backlog" in my watchlist. Those are the only changes I know of which happened, but it's really impossible for me to work without those. Hugs for helping! Ellin Beltz (talk) 17:09, 1 May 2017 (UTC)
@Ellin Beltz: could you screenshot your browser console? preferably on a page with ?debug=1 --Zhuyifei1999 (talk) 17:14, 1 May 2017 (UTC)
Zhuyifei1999 If I type that bit of code on end of line of an image file page, it removes "Nominate for deletion" which is there with out it. [3] Notice: also no ability to delete. Ellin Beltz (talk) 17:27, 1 May 2017 (UTC)
@Ellin Beltz: sorry but I meant your browser console. I understand that it might get frustrated when things don't work, but without very detailed information on the error itself it can be difficult for devs to find the root cause, especially when devs can't reproduce the issue themselves. --Zhuyifei1999 (talk) 18:24, 1 May 2017 (UTC)
Zhuyifei1999 I have no idea what you're talking about "browser console". I have no idea where to find that. Could you perhaps be more specific. I do not personally own any "web development tools#Javascript debugging" applications on my computer. I am not frustrated, merely de-adminned because nothing I need to do this works and I have no idea what you want a photograph of. Do you mean a screenshot of the *.js page with my name on it? Ellin Beltz (talk) 23:17, 2 May 2017 (UTC)
@Ellin Beltz: For most browsers, it's F12 -> console. --Zhuyifei1999 (talk) 01:28, 3 May 2017 (UTC)
Zhuyifei1999 : F12 is volume control. Are you talking about what is shown on this page? I have Java 8, 131 installed and otherwise it looks just like the photos on that page. Ellin Beltz (talk) 22:52, 3 May 2017 (UTC)
@Ellin Beltz: I found a better help page regarding the console: en:WP:JSERROR. And no, Javascript is not Java. --Zhuyifei1999 (talk) 05:43, 4 May 2017 (UTC)
I also have the same problem with Ellin, but this time the button link to VFC isn't working and all the buttons, "no source", "no permission", "no license", and "nominate for deletion" are gone. I am obviously not an admin, so I won't obviously see the "view administrator backlog" button. I am using Firefox 7.4 (iOS). Poké95 00:54, 3 May 2017 (UTC)

Hi Steinsplitter, I wanted to apologise for my comment at RFA, I know we've had beef in the past so commenting on your reply especially rather harshly probably wasn't the smartest of moves I could've made,

Фотоконкурсът „Уики обича Земята“ 2017 започва – очакваме те!

„Уики обича Земята“ 2017 започва!

Здравей, Steinsplitter/Archive/2017

получаваш това писмо, тъй като миналата година си участвал/а в изданията на „Уики обича Земята“ през 2015 или 2016 г. или „Уики обича паметниците“ 2015 или 2016. До края на този месец юни, те каним отново да участваш в тазгодишното фотосъстезание „Уики обича Земята 2017“.

Отново търсим твоите снимки от защитените природни обекти на България – национални и природни паркове, резервати, защитени местности и природни забележителности и отново това могат да са както пейзажи, така и снимани в близък план животни и растения. Специален акцент тази година поставяме на снимките на балканските и българските еднемични растителни видове. Отново няма ограничения за броя снимки, с които можеш да участваш в конкурса и можеш да използваш същата регистрация в Общомедия като миналогодишната. Не е нужно и снимките да са правени през този един месец – можеш да разгледаш архивите си и да споделиш снимки и от минали години и сезони. Единственото условие на конкурса е да отдадеш снимките си под свободен лиценз и без водни знаци и други надписи с декларации за авторството върху тях.

Авторите на първите 10 класирани снимки ще продължат в международния кръг на „Уики обича Земята“ и ще представят страната ни. Някои от партньорите ни в конкурса ще предоставят награди – книги по география и екология. Междувременно, ако качиш над 25, 50 и 100 снимки, ще получиш съответно виртуална бронзова, сребърна и златна УОЗ-значка  ;)

Но най-важното за „Уики обича Земята“ е, че с дарените от теб снимки енциклопедичното знание, достъпно на български език, се разраства и подобрява, тъй като използваме снимките за илюстриране на съществуващи и създаване на нови статии в Уикипедия! Затова не се колебай, а участвай! :)

УОЗдрави,

Problems with AWB

As I wrote in my initial statement, I have an AWB authorisation here with my main account, but I can't log in on AWB with it. I assume it's the 2-step verification preventing me by doing so, but I'm not sure about it. I wouldn't like to flag my bot here, since I don't really need it and I want to keep all of this as simple as possible. I'll just try to temporarily remove the verification, and hope for the best. --Sannita - not just another it.wiki sysop 13:03, 1 June 2017 (UTC)

Tech advice

Hi Stein. For the past week or so I've been having a strange problem. None of the regular scripts I use will load when I first open an image in a new window. I have to reload the page, sometimes more than once. This happens daily with my Rillke license review script, the filemove script, the duplicate processing script, and even delreqhandler a couple times. Any idea why this would happen? I use the newest Chrome on Windows 7. I hope you don't mind me asking, but I need expert help. Daphne Lantier 02:43, 4 June 2017 (UTC)

Hi, Your common.js are looking ok. Which browser do you use? --Steinsplitter (talk) 04:55, 4 June 2017 (UTC)
  • I use Chrome mostly, but I've tried FF and Opera today and got the same bad results. Sometimes I even have to reload the page for my links to deletion nomination, batch task, CSD tagging, notify this user, and the rest show up. Daphne Lantier 05:54, 4 June 2017 (UTC)
  • If Perhelion has time, that would be great. This malfunction makes license reviews tedious, and I usually do at least 100 of those each day. Nothing works for very long around here from what I've seen so far. I had to re-install VisualFileChange a little while back under the instructions of Zhuyifei1999. I hate to have to go bother you guys for this stuff. It's tiresome for me and probably for you guys too... Daphne Lantier 06:27, 4 June 2017 (UTC)

(For User:PleaseStand/userinfo.js I suggest to take my https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Perhelion/userstatus.js ;-)) You need also replace all importScriptURI simply with mw.loader.load (but this should not the reason for the failure). -- User: Perhelion 12:29, 4 June 2017 (UTC)

Definitely please remove this old/deprecated script User:King of Hearts/closecfd.js. PS: You can use the UdelReqHandler gadget instead (see settings very bottom).

@Perhelion: Here's the console screenshot: File:Daphne Lantier console screenshot.png. As you can see, the [change license] [license +] [license -] options are missing from just above the license review template. I see that the mark blocked ru.wiki script I use is in there. I'd hate to lose it, since it realy comes in handy with spammers/spambots/socks, etc. Anyways, thanks for the help so far. Feel free to do anything you need to my common.js. I really appreciate your taking the time. Daphne Lantier 18:54, 4 June 2017 (UTC)
@Perhelion: I've removed the VFC settings from my common.js [4], and it looks like the problems I was having are gone. Daphne Lantier 22:24, 4 June 2017 (UTC)
@Daphne Lantier: That is entirely irrelevant to the cause of the issue. By doing so, you probably adjusted the timing of the script so that the race condition does not error for now, but if the real fix is not implemented the error will come back eventually. @Perhelion: Do you know when/where mw.util.$content is set? It's somehow null as indicated in the console, but I don't think loading mediawiki.util fixes it (maybe I'm wrong, haven't checked). --Zhuyifei1999 (talk) 08:16, 5 June 2017 (UTC)
+1 The mw.util.$content must be set after document.ready (I read somewhere, so it works only randomly, as you said). Good to hear it works again. So be careful with old scripts or report them. (PS: Yesterday evening my PC is gone broken ... because of to much dust :P) -- User: Perhelion 08:44, 5 June 2017 (UTC)
PS: As we can see on the ru gadget there are dependencies = mediawiki.util, mediawiki.page.startup, so we must them load before also. (So it is the typically error of the last days here.) -- User: Perhelion 08:50, 5 June 2017 (UTC)
@Perhelion: Your dust story scares me a bit. Twice in the past week my own computer suddenly went into overdrive (it sounded like a small engine) and blew a bunch of dust out of all the fans. The first time the dust went right in my face. I've had my HP Pavilion Slimline since 2010... @Zhuyifei1999: & Perhelion: If there's something else I can/should do in regard to this script issue, let me know. Thanks to both again for your help. Daphne Lantier 18:45, 5 June 2017 (UTC)
@Daphne Lantier: try enclose it so that it runs after the document.ready promise is resolved. The shortest way is to: prepend a line $(function(){ and append a line }); --Zhuyifei1999 (talk) 19:14, 5 June 2017 (UTC)
@Zhuyifei1999: Is there any way you can do this for me? I have no idea how to do it myself. Feel free to edit my common.js. Daphne Lantier 19:17, 5 June 2017 (UTC)
It looks like Perhelion already did a similar thing, so no need for that ^ --Zhuyifei1999 (talk) 19:23, 5 June 2017 (UTC)

Category moves

Hallo Steinsplitter, es kommt bei Cat-Verschiebungen via CDC immer wieder mal zu Problemen (wie z. B. jetzt Category:Flags of Sorokyne - Category:Flags of Krasnodon) durch Cross-redirects. Ich hab hin und her überlegt, der Bot könnte zwar prüfen, ob das Ziel ein Redirect ist (aber der könnte ja auch anderswohin als in die Gegenrichtung zeigen) und je nach Szenario entsprechend reagieren, aber das ist alles zu umständlich. Blöd ist, dass beim Cross-Redir Quelle und Ziel beide keine übergeordneten Kategorien mehr haben und dass der Request im CDC als unfertig pending hängenbleibt. Langer Rede kurzer Sinn: Am einfachsten wäre es, wenn die Kategorieverschiebung abgelehnt würde, wenn die Zielkategorie ein Redirect ist. So, wie bei Dateien jetzt steht "No such replacement file:" könnte dann stehen "Destination is redirecting:". Da könnte man dann kurz nachsehen, ob der Zielname korrigiert werden muss oder die Zielkategorie gelöscht werden muss oder nur der gegenläufige Redirect entfernt werden sollte. Alles in allem weniger Arbeit als das jetzige nachträgliche kurieren. Gruß, --Achim (talk) 18:36, 7 June 2017 (UTC)

Wiki Loves Earth 2017 - Danke, und wie geht es weiter?

Hallo Steinsplitter,

vielen Dank für Deine Teilnahme am Fotowettbewerb Wiki Loves Earth Deutschland. Damit hast Du ein Stück Natur in Deiner Region dokumentiert und Wikipedia geholfen, andere darüber zu informieren.

Dieses Jahr wurden 24.000 Fotos eingereicht, im vorigen Jahr waren es noch 18.000. Bei der Teilnehmerzahl (1063) wurde der Rekord vom Vorjahr nur knapp verpasst.

Um die große Zahl von Bildern angemessen zu bewältigen, suchen wir weitere Helfer für die Vorjury, zum Kategorisieren oder zum Einfügen der Bilder in die Artikel und Listen der Wikipedia.

Eine Jury wird Anfang Juli auf einer Sitzung in Fulda die besten Bilder auswählen. Nach dem Zeitplan sollen die Top100 am 15. Juli 2017 veröffentlicht werden. Kurz danach werden die Gewinner benachrichtigt.

Wir möchten auf Wiki Loves Earth Biosphere Reserves hinweisen. Bei diesem Wettbewerb können bis Ende Juni Bilder von Biosphärenreservaten aus aller Welt eingereicht werden. Selbstverständlich darf man das ganze Jahr über Bilder zu beliebigen Themen bei Wikimedia Commons hochladen, nicht nur wenn ein Wettbewerb läuft...

Freundliche Grüße.

Hello and thanks for a great tool. There are 2 minor corrections which would be appropriate for the French version. Replace "hébergé" (housed) by "téléversé" (uploaded) ; replace "pars" by "par" (typo for by).

Hi Steinsplitter, I hope you are well. Do you know offhand if I will cause problems if I hit your tool with ~3000 queries? Should I space them out over an hour or two? longer?

Rename Requests Declined

Hi, based on the 3 images that you declined to rename, I do not see that it does not comply with the renaming guideline. I have made similar requests previously and have not been rejected, the images are not used on many pages and it's a pretty simple change. Regards. —Alvaro Molina ( - ) 19:07, 17 June 2017 (UTC)

@AlvaroMolina: As per Commons:File renaming#Which_files_should_not_be_renamed.3F 1 and Commons:File renaming#cite_note-4 such renames are not allowed. Unnecessarily change. As a matter of principle it's best to leave all files with generally valid names at their locations, even if slightly better names may exist. --Steinsplitter (talk) 19:11, 17 June 2017 (UTC)
Okay, but then the other requests you make should have been also rejected if it is indeed so... —Alvaro Molina ( - ) 19:18, 17 June 2017 (UTC)

Hi, I have seen the comment you made on COM:RFR and based on that I would like to apologize if I had committed any irregularities or errors when I request to rename those files. I have already read all the information related to file renaming policy and I have tried to follow it rigorously, in some cases I have let other file movers or administrators take care of other cases in which I have doubts. I am aware that the moves of files in Commons is a sensitive issue (since the images are used even outside the universe of Wikimedia projects) and therefore I will always be careful when attending a request.

A.Savin

Here, you closed a discussion leaving an unanswered question, which you didn’t even refer in your closing statement: While addressing the matter of categorizing uploads from Panoramio into crowded categories, admin A.Savin mentioned my name several times in no flattering terms, and kept doing so after being questioned about it and reminded that my activity in Commons doesn’t include the practice he was objecting to. While I could not care less about his hounding and name-calling (provided he will not block me without reason), I have to wonder about your take on the matter: Did you overlook this aspect of the AN/U thread, or just deemed it irrelevant? -- Tuválkin 16:04, 26 June 2017 (UTC)

Category:X-rays of the feet by Nevit Dilmen

Hi Steinsplitter,

Many of the the images in Category:X-rays of the feet by Nevit Dilmen where properly categorised and now orphan as a result of edits by User:Mikael_Häggström They where in proper categories before Mikael Häggström created a user category Category:X-rays of the feet by Nevit Dilmen without my knowledge and consent and moved images that where in proper categories to that category. As a result more than 609 images are orphanised. Your bot have properly marked them as orphan but I do not have the time to undo all the damage done by Mikael Häggström. --Nevit Dilmen (talk) 08:05, 27 June 2017 (UTC)

The problem arose because Category:X-rays of the feet by Nevit Dilmen was marked only as a user category, but it should be a valid "mainspace" category in order to avoid being classified as orphan, so I've now removed the "user category" template from Category:X-rays of the feet by Nevit Dilmen. Steinsplitter, could you remove the orphan-tag from these images? Mikael Häggström (talk) 09:23, 27 June 2017 (UTC)
I have never liked the auto-hiding of 'photos by photographer' categories. Sometimes these are a perfectly good bucket category for a mass upload, I don't see the need to make the lack of additional categories for every single file into a maintenance problem. -- (talk) 09:56, 27 June 2017 (UTC)

Bug in derivativeFX

Tach, Du bist in den Toollabs als Maintainer für derivativeFX eingetragen. Kannst Du dir bitte mal etwas ansehen? Ich habe das Tool kürzlich erstmals benutzt und dabei festgestellt, dass aus dem Template der Bildvorlage außer der Bildbeschreibung auch das alte Datumsfeld übernommen wurde, obwohl natürlich ein neues ergänzt wurde. Das sah dann etwa so aus:

|Description={{de|$Inhalt}}|date=$AltesDatum
|Date=$NeuesDatum

Ich halte das für einen Bug. Falls Du dir das am Beispiel ansehen willst: Die Vorlage war diese Datei, die abgeleitete Datei hat einen kürzeren Namen, File:Potsdam-Babelsberg Altes Rathaus.jpg. Ich habe das hier aber noch vor dem Hochladen und Abspeichern repariert. — Speravir – 18:39, 28 June 2017 (UTC)

Ergänzend: Mit file: incategory:"uploaded with derivativefx" insource: date insource:/\| *[Dd]ate[^}]+?\| *[Dd]ate/ finde ich Treffer (gleich auf der ersten Ergebnisseite ein NSFW-Bild). Die ersten haben alle ein |Source=$Bildlink/nowiki></code> zwischen den beiden Datumsfeldern. Leider ist die Suche schwer: Einerseits schließt die Suchsyntax potentielle Treffer aus (weil ich ausgeschlossen habe, dass eine schließende geschweifte Klammer zwischen beiden Feldern vorkommen darf), andererseits findet sie offensichtlich immer noch zu viel. — [[User:Speravir|Speravir]] <span style="font-size:80%;color:#555;">– 01:48, 29 June 2017 (UTC)</span> :<small>This section was archived on a request by: [[User:Steinsplitter|Steinsplitter]] ([[User talk:Steinsplitter#top|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 11:31, 2 July 2017 (UTC)</small> ==Rotating, not enlarging== Hi, Steinsplitter.

Änderung so in etwa: Davon abweichende Drehungen werden durch erfahrene Nutzer manuell durchgeführt. Erfahrungsgemäß wird das nicht zeitnah erfolgen. Besser wäre eine generelle Überarbeitung. Die Ursache, warum die Bilder 90, 180 oder 270 Grad falsch liegen, ist hier nicht von Bedeutung.<br>Macht es viel Arbeit, die Maske dahingehend zu ändern: * den Text über die ganze Maskenbreite laufen zu lassen? * das freie Eingabefeld zu separieren?

Inzwischen wurden alle Bilder durch diverse Admins gelöscht, was aber nichts an meiner Verunsicherung ändert. Ich sende Dir deshalb hier noch einmal meinen ursprünglichen Text und würde es begrüßen, wenn wir die von mir angeschnittenen Probleme auf Deutsch diskutieren könnten. Auf Englisch ist mir das bei der Thematik zu kompliziert. Viele Grüße Bernd Wältz Hallo, ich bin auf der Seite mit einigen "Löschkandidaten" vertreten, zu denen ich gestern bereits bei Wiki Commons unter User talk:Der wilde bernd Kommentare hinterlassen habe. Alle beanstandeten Fotos wurden von mir selbst aufgenommen, sind damit also "mein Werk". Das Problem scheint demnach darin zu bestehen, dass das, was ich fotografiert habe Inhalte enthält, die ich nicht hätte fotografieren oder hochladen dürfen. Das scheint mir jedoch in vielen der beanstandeten Fälle absurd zu sein. Wenn ein staatliches oder kommunales Archiv ausdrücklich erlaubt, dass die Akteninhalte fotokopiert oder fotografiert werden dürfen, weshalb sind dann so entstandene Aufnahmen nicht statthaft? Warum sind Aufnahmen von im öffetnlichen Raum installierten Gedenktafeln nicht zulässig? Dann müssten auch sämtliche Aufnahmen von Stolpersteinen, von denen ich auch einige hochgeladen habe, unzulässig sein. In einem anderen Fall habe ich ein Foto eingestellt, das die University von Chicago zum Download freigegeben hat. Ich habe die Quelle und auch diesen Hinweis angegeben, aber dennoch soll das Bild gelöscht werden. Weshalb? Ich habe auch Fotos hochgeladen, die ich im Jüdischen Museum in Berlin gemacht habe. Das Fotografieren war dort erlaubt. Warum darf ich diese Bilder nicht verwenden? Der Betreiber der Webseite http://www.stmarystownandcountryschool.com/ hat mir gestern erlaubt, dass ich Bilder von der Seite mit Quellennennung in eigenen Wikipedia-Artikeln verwenden darf. Wie soll ich das tun, um nicht abermals in die Löschfalle zu geraten? Ich gestehe, dass ich mit dieser Diskussion grosse Schwierigkeiten habe. All diese Bilder waren für mich keine Selbstzwecke, sondern Elemente zur Illustration von WIKIPEDIA-Artikeln. Momentan sieht es für mich aber so aus, dass ich besser die Finger von Bildmaterial lasse und mich auf Texte beschränke. Schön finde ich das nicht, aber vielleicht können wir ja an Hand meiner "Fälle" noch zu einer gemeinsamen Regelung kommen.

Datei von en:WP zu Commons?

Hallo Steinsplitter,
ich würde gerne den Artikel en:George H. Sutton ins Deutsche übersetzen und würde dazu gerne auch das Foto benutzen. Die Dateibeschreibung sagt, es wäre möglich diese nach Commons zu verschieben. Nur hat sich leider seit 7 Jahren keiner drum gekümmert. Das Foto ist von 1923, sollte also kein Problem sein, zumal es von seinem Urenkel hochgeladen und zur Verfügung gestellt wurde. Könntest du das übernehmen oder hast du keine Rechte auf der en:WP? Gruß und schönen Sonntag. --LezFraniak (talk) 09:22, 3 September 2017 (UTC)

Siehe https://tools.wmflabs.org/commonshelper/ --Steinsplitter (talk) 09:29, 3 September 2017 (UTC)
Geht nicht. Akzeptiert OAuth nicht (Fehler mit Token?!) --LezFraniak (talk) 10:15, 3 September 2017 (UTC)
Hast du oAuth autorisiert? Ansonsten per Hand generieren oder en:User:This, that and the other/For the Common Good verwenden. --Steinsplitter (talk) 10:26, 3 September 2017 (UTC)
Habe ich ja voran beschrieben. oAuth funzt nicht. Irgendein Token wird nicht akzeptiert. This, That… ist nur für Windows als .exe zu beziehen. Und Svenbot wartet seit 2012 auf eine Erlaubnis zum Verschieben. Könntest du das bitte übernehmen, scheint der einfachste Weg zu sein. Dank im Voraus. Gruß --Rafael Zink (talk) 08:13, 7 September 2017 (UTC)
Wollte gerade, hat anscheinend schon jemand anders gemacht :) File:GeorgeHSuttonBilliards.png --Steinsplitter (talk) 15:56, 8 September 2017 (UTC)
Danke. Wir haben am Do. auf dem OE-Treffen in Berlin festgestellt, dass der Commonshelper/Mover einen Defekt hat. DerHexer hat Magnus deswegen schon angeschrieben. MB-one war so freundlich und hat die Datei verschoben. Gruß und schönes WE. Rafael Zink (talk) 12:12, 9 September 2017 (UTC)

Hello Steinsplitter,

I'm writing you as one of the most active Commons users right now. Since a while now, the idea of a dedicated Commons conference has been floating around, but since the last Wikimania concrete steps have been taken to actually make it happen next year. If you're interested in participation or maybe willing to help organize the first ever Commons Conference, I invite you to check out the project page and leave your comments; or just show your support for the idea, by signing up.

Cheers,

Editing Commons for Turkish lang

Hi,

Commons' Turkish main page is outdated. I want to update it but it is under protection. How can i update the page? --Hedda Gabler (eski) (talk) 10:26, 7 September 2017 (UTC)

@Hedda Gabler: It is [edit=autoconfirmed] --Steinsplitter (talk) 10:36, 7 September 2017 (UTC)
Guten Tag, Admin, it is so clear that User:Hedda Gabler (eski) and User:Hedda Gabler are the same person/user. Shouldn't the two user names (accounts) be merged to prevent confusion and misunderstandings? Auf wiedersehen. --E4024 (talk) 07:06, 8 September 2017 (UTC)
@Hedda Gabler (eski): can you explain pls? Use {{User Alternate Acc}}, Best --Steinsplitter (talk) 15:53, 8 September 2017 (UTC)
Hi,
Firstly, User:Hedda Gabler is mine but Maintenance script changed my user name to "Kullanıcı:Hedda Gabler~trwiki" because of SUL finalization. I don't remember password for this accounts.
Current account is my oldest account (before SUL, we could change our nicknames on tr wiki) and after years i login with this account and notice i have 3 accounts. All accounts separated each other. So i decide to use my this account. --Hedda Gabler (eski) (talk) 16:13, 8 September 2017 (UTC)
Should be fine :), Btw: We don't have an account merging tool right now. --Steinsplitter (talk) 16:14, 8 September 2017 (UTC)

Picture of the Year

Hi. I've no idea who organises the Picture of the Year competition, but I did see your name there as making lots of edits. Apologies if you are not involved. I wanted to suggest a 'Photographer of the Year' Competition to run alongside POTY. How would I submit that for debate please? Many thanks. Charles (talk) 15:30, 11 September 2017 (UTC)

Review of your SpeedyKeep on File:Macaca nigra self-portrait large.jpg

I am unable to understand your hasty decision "Speedykept: This has been discussed multiple times yet. Enough is enough.".

Have the grounds I am citing for deletion of this image ever been discussed by the larger community at articles for deletion ? If I am wrong please link me to the concerned articles for deletion discussion.

FYI The applicable copyright law I am citing is 17 U.S. Code § 1202 - Integrity of copyright management information ... No person shall, without the authority of the copyright owner or the law— (1) intentionally remove or alter any copyright management information, and admins cannot ignore Commons policies or any applicable copyright law. Hence this review request on grounds of per incuriam. Pringles3000 (talk) 09:49, 30 November 2017 (UTC)

This has been discussed x-times. Please read the relevant discussions and don't misuse DR's to push your POV. --Steinsplitter (talk) 10:09, 30 November 2017 (UTC)
When you say this has been discussed x-times, can you show even 1 of those x-times at articles for deletion where this legal point has been discussed ? Pringles3000 (talk) 10:23, 30 November 2017 (UTC)

Hello Steinsplitter, how are you?

I sometimes use the link above, as it provides a big number of links to other interesting tools regarding images informations, hidden data, reverse searches and mores.... I have modified my User:Christian Ferrer/common.js to have a link in a TAB in the images pages, and that works well, exemple File:CAPTAIN BADR (ship, 1978). Sète cf01.jpg from a link in a tab of the file page I go to directly to [5], and that gives a lot of possibilities. Do you think it worth to create a "MediaWiki:" page such thing to make that available to other users? Christian Ferrer (talk) 20:12, 25 September 2017 (UTC)

Though I have an issue as the code give a link to a thumb, I must have another look.. Christian Ferrer (talk) 20:16, 25 September 2017 (UTC)
Done, I created a second link, now I have one for the full resolution, useful to keep EXIFs and datas, and one link for the 300px thumb, useful for reverse searches. Christian Ferrer (talk) 20:41, 25 September 2017 (UTC)

Image rotation and rotation display bug

Hi Steinsplitter, please be careful with User:SteinsplitterBot rotations. Some images are displayed incorrectly - eg. File:Prague 1, Czech Republic - panoramio (278).jpg is displayed correctly in the small thumb in the category, but appears to be rotated in the big thumb at the file page. Some display bug is occuring and some rotation requests can be influenced by it. --ŠJů (talk) 22:34, 27 September 2017 (UTC)

@ŠJů: Hi, Looks OK for me, please clear your browser cache :). --Steinsplitter (talk) 10:39, 28 September 2017 (UTC)

SteinsplitterBot / Custom license marker template

SteinsplitterBot is removing the {{Custom license marker}} template from images with the comment "Removing deprecated template". This template was added to a upload of mine as recent as 27 September 2017. Has the upload wizard been edited since then to remove the use of this template? If not wanted to make sure you were aware the template is still being added by the uploadwizard. - Offnfopt(talk) 12:51, 1 October 2017 (UTC)

Hi @Offnfopt: It is not used/it was never used and i is (since today) no longer added to new upload's. It serves no purpose, just junk which is confusing users. I forgot that one to add to the upwiz cleanup stuff. Best --Steinsplitter (talk) 13:11, 1 October 2017 (UTC)
Ok thanks, just wanted to make sure it wasn't still being added. - Offnfopt(talk) 13:45, 1 October 2017 (UTC)

File:Nominate category for discussion en.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!

  • Sjeez, this is tiresome. It was only added to that article (and earlier to another one) to keep it here, who knows why. It's just a crumpled receipt, what encyclopedic use is that?

Hallo Steinsplitter, könntest Du bitte die erste Version wieder sichtbar machen? In Übereinstimmung mit MagentaGreen kann ich die von Leyo behauptete Copyright-Verletzung nicht nachvollziehen. Insofern würde ich eigentlich gerne die unverpixelte Version wieder herstellen. Siehe hierzu auch die ausführlichere Diskussion/Begründung hier. Vielen Dank! --Ajepbah (talk) 12:18, 8 October 2017 (UTC)

Dem schließe ich mich an. Im Übrigen ist es sicher, dass einige der Plakate keinesfalls Schöpfungshöhe erreichen, über den Rest kann man diskutieren, die Verpixelung in Bausch und Bogen ist aber bestimmt nicht notwendig. MagentaGreen (talk) 12:27, 8 October 2017 (UTC)
@Ajepbah and MagentaGreen: Schöpfungshöhe ist für die mehr zahl der gezeigten Werbung zu bejahen, daher muss die ursprüngliche Datei gelöscht bleiben. lg --Steinsplitter (talk) 12:50, 8 October 2017 (UTC)
Die Schöpfungshöhe ist hier m. E. nebensächlich. Die einzelnen Plakate sind Beiwerk und im Übrigen für ihre Lebensdauer der Öffentlichkeit gewidmet (vgl. BGH-Urteil zur Reichtagsverhüllung). Ihr wollt doch wohl nicht allen Ernstes verlangen, dass alle Werbeplakate auf Commons verpixelt werden?!? Zumal ich Werbung bisher immer so verstanden habe, dass eine Weiterverbreiung eigentlich im Sinne des Werbenden sein müsste ... --Ajepbah (talk) 13:17, 8 October 2017 (UTC)
@Ajepbah: IMHO kein Beiwerk und das genannte Urteil ist nicht wirklich für den Fall anwendbar. Wenn du trotzdem denkst, das Foto hätte nicht gelöscht werden dürfen, kannst du einen Antrag bei der Löschprüffug stellen. Lg --Steinsplitter (talk) 13:37, 8 October 2017 (UTC)

Files proposed for deletion

I noticed that you have put several files loaded by me for deletion. All the files proposed for elimination have been given to me by Companhia Vidas from A to Z, so that the same images appear on facebook and on the official website of the same, as in other websites. Some photographs were taken by me and others rights were transferred to the company that authorized me to use them, and I already sent the email to the permissions with the transfer of rights of the images to me by the Company, but no one answered to the email that I sent with permission to use images to permissions-pt@wikimedia.org nor did they place the OTRS.

I would appreciate it if you did not delete the files, since the process is delayed or you should check the permissions email and verify that the image use authorization was indeed given.

Link of files concerned: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Deletion_requests/Files_uploaded_by_S%C3%ADlvia_Gomes

Welcome to the Structured Commons focus group!

Hello! Thank you very much for signing up to the community focus group for Structured Commons :-)

How to organize ourselves?

This focus group is new and experimental, and I welcome your tips and thoughts on how we can organize this in the most convenient and productive way. For now, I have posted a few separate topics on the focus group's talk page. Please add your questions there too! If we all add that page to our watchlist, that's probably a good way to stay up to date with current discussions. Steinsplitter has also initiated a brand new IRC channel specifically for Structured Commons: wikimedia-commons-sd (webchat) which we invite you to join. Please let me know if you have other ideas on how to work together.

The Structured Commons team at Wikimania 2017

Two new people have been hired for the Structured Data on Commons team. We are now complete! :-)

  • Ramsey Isler is the new Product Manager of the Multimedia team.
  • Pamela Drouin was hired as User Interface Designer. She works at the Multimedia team as well, and her work will focus on the Structured Commons project.
Partners and allies
  • We are still welcoming (more) staff from GLAMs (Galleries, Libraries, Archives and Museums) to become part of our long-term focus group (phabricator task T174134). You will be kept in the loop of the project, and receive regular small surveys and requests for feedback. Get in touch with Sandra if you're interested - your input in helping to shape this project is highly valued!
Research

Design research is ongoing.

  • Jonathan Morgan and Niharika Ved have held interviews with various GLAM staff about their batch upload workflows and will finish and report on these in this quarter. (phabricator task T159495)
  • At this moment, there is also an online survey for GLAM staff, Wikimedians in Residence, and GLAM volunteers who upload media collections to Wikimedia Commons. The results will be used to understand how we can improve this experience. (phabricator task T175188)
  • Upcoming: interviews with Wikimedia volunteers who curate media on Commons (including tool developers), talking about activities and workflows. (phabricator task T175185)
Development

In Autumn 2017, the Structured Commons development team works on the following major tasks (see also the quarterly goals for the team):

  • Getting Multi-Content Revisions sufficiently ready, so that the Multimedia and Search Platform teams can start using it to test and prototype things.
  • Determine metrics and metrics baseline for Commons (phabricator task T174519).
  • The multimedia team at WMF is gaining expertise in Wikibase, and unblocking further development for Structured Commons, by completing the MediaInfo extension for Wikibase.
Stay up to date!

Hi, There was no reason to delete these files. Images by Agence Rol are OK: Creator:Agence Rol. Could you please restore them? Regards, Yann (talk) 21:56, 26 October 2017 (UTC)

Please don't restore them. There is no information to support that the authors have died before 1947. Jcb (talk) 22:05, 26 October 2017 (UTC)
Jcb: The photographer is not named, so the copyright belongs to the company and expired 70 years after publication. You should know better... Regards, Yann (talk) 10:54, 27 October 2017 (UTC)
There is no indication that there has not e.g. been an earlier publication, with the name of the photographer mentioned. Jcb (talk) 12:43, 27 October 2017 (UTC)
Agence Rol is photo agency. The images are under a public domain mention on the source. There is really no issue here. Why do you make things so complicated? Regards, Yann (talk) 14:02, 27 October 2017 (UTC)
Nothing was complicated in this case until you got involved. Clear nomination, logical closure based on established policy, nothing out of the ordinary. Jcb (talk) 15:41, 27 October 2017 (UTC)

Hallo Steinsplitter,
mir ist aufgefallen dass nachstehende, von dir erstellte Wartungskategorien gelöscht wurden, weil sie leer waren.

Q

Hello, I see you're a bureaucrat on beta. I was wondering if you can give me access to GLAMToolset. I have a ton of archived stuff that I plan on uploading to Commons. Thus, I prefer to upload and try the on the beta cluster before requesting the real flag. Thanks. Artix Kreiger (talk) 18:23, 1 November 2017 (UTC)

@Artix Kreiger: Immediately stop forum shopping 1, 2, 3, 4. The conversation above confirms that you don't need the tool. Needles to say that as per your conversation with Hedwig (on Hedwig's talkape) you know that the job is being done by IBarr. This kind of behavior is really concerning. --Steinsplitter (talk) 13:38, 2 November 2017 (UTC)

Important question

Hi Steinsplitter, Hope you have been well. I have a question in regards with Flickr files that I upload. You have previously blocked me for uploading files, more specifically last year. I asked Elisfkc if I could overwrite my own files that I upload.

Does this apply also to Flickr files and other files that I upload, not other user's uploaded files.

Say for example File:Rolls Royce Dawn 2016.jpg which was uploaded by me, not any other user, but belongs to another flickr user, could I overwrite this file. Could you please fully explain what files am I permitted to crop. Thanks for your assistance --Nim Bhharathhan (talk) 09:42, 2 November 2017 (UTC)

Please follow COM:OVERWRITE. --Steinsplitter (talk) 11:48, 2 November 2017 (UTC)

Image notes

Hi Steinsplitter, habe neuerdings das Problem, dass wenn ich zu einem von mir beobachteten Bild Image notes hinzufüge, das Bild dabei unvermittelt aus meiner Beobachtungsliste geworfen wird. WTF?? Kannst du vllt. helfen, wie man das abstellt? Gruß --A.Savin 19:31, 17 November 2017 (UTC)

Hi, Seltsam. Ist das erst neu? In Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-watchlist alles richtig eingestellt? --Steinsplitter (talk) 12:17, 18 November 2017 (UTC)
Genau, das ist erst neu (hatte vor ein paar Monaten zu einem meiner Fotos Notes hinzugefügt und das kam nicht vor). In den Einstellungen ist aktiviert (und das war schon immer so), dass meine eigenen Edits ausgeblendet sind und dass neu erstellte Seiten und hochgeladene Dateien zur Watchlist hinzugefügt werden. --A.Savin 14:01, 18 November 2017 (UTC)
Habe es soeben getestet, stimmt! Das sollte nicht sein, habe aber keinen Abschnitt im Code gefunden welcher die Watchlist direkt beeinflusst. @Zhuyifei1999: Any idea why ImageAnnotator is removing files from the watchlist? I looked into the code, but was unable to find a watchlist param in the page itself and in the api subpage of the script. --Steinsplitter (talk) 15:39, 18 November 2017 (UTC)
Could you provide some steps to reproduce the issue? I can't read German :P --Zhuyifei1999 (talk) 16:28, 18 November 2017 (UTC)
If you have a file on your watchlist yet, and you add a annotation to the image using the aforementioned tool, then the page will be removed from you'r watchlst. The edit shouldn't change the watchlist setting for the edited file. --Steinsplitter (talk) 17:15, 18 November 2017 (UTC)
Yes and that's going on since few weeks or so. On 13 August I hadn't the problem yet, that's for sure. --A.Savin 01:36, 19 November 2017 (UTC)
Image notes doesn't use the API?! It did an edit via a POST to https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=File:Spb_06-2017_img01_Spit_of_Vasilievsky_Island.jpg&action=submit as if 'Watch this page' is not checked and unspecified. --Zhuyifei1999 (talk) 17:35, 19 November 2017 (UTC)

Löschung zweier Fotos von Ulrich Sild

Lieber Steinsplitter, ich vermisse zwei Fotos, die User Wereldnieuws einmal bei Wikimedia Commons hochgeladen hatte. Wie ich anhand der Versionsgeschichte sehe, hast Du sie heute gelöscht. Wenn Du Dir den unlogischen Löschantrag ansiehst, der besagt, es seien Fotos unbekannter Urheber zu löschen (das träfe auf eine Vielzahl von WP-Fotos zu), und zusätzlich berücksichtigst, dass bei beiden Fotos der Urheber mit Lebensdaten († 1937, also seit 80 Jahren verstorben) angegeben war, würde ich Dich freundlichst bitten, die beiden Fotos wiederherzustellen. Danke! Hier die Details:

Images uploaded by LIUC1Timothesus

Hi, we are creating a Wikipedia page for a school project. We noticed that you have deleted some of our pictures due to missing informations. Do you have any suggestions of how we can resolve the problem? --G1ulvia (talk) 14:02, 29 November 2017 (UTC)G1ulvia

Hi, Your account has no deleted files/edits. Please provide a link to the files in question. Thanks. --Steinsplitter (talk) 14:09, 29 November 2017 (UTC)
I believe they mean these files. @G1ulvia: for old photos, and other files where you do not have the copyright to the original, you must show why it is out of copyright. In much of the world, a work falls out of copyright 70 years after the death of the creator, so we need to know where they were originally published, who created them, and when did those original photographers/artists die.

We uploaded the pictures again and we provided further copyright information. Our pictures are from a book, the author of this book has provided us signed permission to publish the image on wikipedia. Please let us know what copyright category we should classify this one under? --LIUC1Timothesus (talk) 17:32, 30 November 2017 (UTC)
The file is from 1988-01-07 or 1860-1861? cc-by-sa-4.0 unlikely. --Steinsplitter (talk) 18:06, 30 November 2017 (UTC)
The files were taken from a book written in 1988 and the author of this book is alive and wrote a signed permission letter. The pictures were taken in the 1860s but we do not have information about the actual author of the pictures. Therefore should we classify it under "The author died more than 70 years ago" or as non-free content? Thank you for your help, but our page should be submitted for tomorrow as a school deadline.--G1ulvia (talk) 09:35, 1 December 2017 (UTC)

Extended uploaders

Hi Steinsplitter, Over at Commons:Extended uploaders it said "'''Extended uploaders''' is a special [[:mw:Special:MyLangauge/Help:User rights and groups|user group]] for registered Commons users",
However when I clicked on "user group" it took me to a MW page however it says "No such special page" so I removed the "Special:MyLangauge/" part however I'm not sure if this was the correct thing to do so figured I'd leave a message incase you might understand it all and can perhaps fix it,

Trinis

Moin Steinsplitter,
hin und wieder gibt es Probleme mit Leuten, die copyrighted Bilder zu Trinidad und Tobago hochladen. Ich habe mal irgendwo aufgeschnappt, dass das immer derselbe Typ ist. Meistens konnte ich ziemlich einfach eine Copyvio anhand der Fundorte via Google Images nachweisen. Ich glaube, er ist wieder da, und diesmal etwas geschickter: Videoscreenshots, meist von GoPro- oder Phantom-Dronen-Aufnahmen. Die finde ich nicht so leicht. Geht um User:RajkumarBhola1952, und ein Bild habe ich jetzt gefunden: File:Navetdamctt.jpg ist ein nachbearbeiteter Screenshot aus https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=II6SWiToDMg wo er die Farben verändert, aber das Wasserzeichen unten rechts vergessen hat.
Was macht man in solchen Fällen? In eindeutigen Fällen stelle ich einen Löschantrag auf ein Bild. Hier gehe ich davon aus, dass alle Bilder (mal wieder) geklaut sind, bin aber unerfahren und unsicher, wie da mit der Beweislast verfahren wird. Was hältst Du für die richtige Vorgehensweise?
Vielen Dank und viele Grüße, Grueslayer (talk) 07:06, 2 December 2017 (UTC)

I wish to upload to Wikimedia a map/plan/diagram published by "L'Illustration" magazine in 1914 - does it still hold a copyright?

Hello. I was told by User=Jcb to contact OTRS on this matter. I wish to upload (to Wikimedia) a photo of a map/plan/diagram that was originally published by "L'Illustration" in 1914, with a few colored lines added by me, so as to highlight portions of it, in order to better explain the military actions that took place, as described by my text in the article - in which I basically comment and expand on that map/plan/diagram.

Caricamento Video per la WIKI SCIENCE COMPETITION 2017 (entro il 15 Dicembre)

Buongiorno,

sto provando a caricare da un paio di giorni il video che abbiamo scelto per partecipare alla WIKI SCIENCE COMPETITION 2017 nella categoria "multimedia". Purtroppo il sistema continua a bloccare l'upload dei file sia in formato webm che ogg. Ho parlato con Bodhan Melnychuk e Nicolas Tamargo (non riesco a contattare il sig. Alessandro Marchetti) che mi hanno consigliato di parlare con gli admin per disattivare (a quanto pare) questi filtri che bloccano la procedura. Come da oggetto, l'invio del file per partecipare al contest deve essere effettuato entro il 15 Dicembre. Resto in attesa di un suo cortese riscontro. La ringrazio anticipatamente.

Cordiali saluti

Community updates
Things to do / input and feedback requests
A multi-licensed image on Wikimedia Commons, with a custom {{EthnologyItemMHNT}} Information template. Do you also know media files on Commons that will be interesting or challenging to model with structured data? Add them to the Interesting Commons files page.
Presentations / Press / Events
Presentation about Structured Commons and Wikidata, at WikimediaCon in Berlin.
  • Sandra presented the plans for Structured Commons during WikidataCon in Berlin, on October 29. The presentation focused on collaboration between the Wikidata and Commons communities. You can see the full video here.
Partners and allies
  • We are still welcoming (more) staff from GLAMs (Galleries, Libraries, Archives and Museums) to become part of our long-term focus group (phabricator task T174134). You will be kept in the loop of the project, and receive regular small surveys and requests for feedback. Get in touch with Sandra if you're interested - your input in helping to shape this project is highly valued!
Research
  • Research findings from interviews and surveys of GLAM project participants are being published to the research page. Check back over the next few weeks as additional details (notes, quotes, charts, blog posts, and slide decks) will be added to or linked from that page.
Development
  • The Structured Commons team has written and submitted a report about the first nine months of work on the project to its funders, the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation. The 53-page report, published on November 1, is available on Wikimedia Commons.
  • The team has started working on designs for changes to the upload wizard (T182019).
  • We started preliminary work to prototype changes for file info pages.
  • Work on the MediaInfo extension is ongoing (T176012).
  • The team is continuing its work on baseline metrics on Commons, in order to be able to measure the effectiveness of structured data on Commons. (T174519)
  • Upcoming: in the first half of 2018, the first prototypes and design sketches for file pages, the UploadWizard, and for search will be published for discussion and feedback!
Stay up to date!

Warmly, your community liaison, SandraF (WMF) (talk)

Bot on strike?

Hi, pages like Commons:Database reports/Blank single-author pages gets normaly updated twice a day by your bot. Thats not the case anymore. Anything broken? Can you have a look please. Thx. --JuTa 19:09, 18 December 2017 (UTC)

What's this?

What's going on here?[7] No incoming links, no upload or change of that page for the last three years.

Also, your bot has suddenly stopped marking very many uploads. I don't think it's your bot's fault, but do you know why? For example, this user has two uploads within a short time, and only one was flagged by the interface. Magog the Ogre (talk) (contribs) 01:37, 21 December 2017 (UTC)

@Magog the Ogre: Thanks, The falsepostive tagging was indeed a bug, which is fixed now. The kipping of the file, maybe (i also changed the code to make sure that such ones are getting tagged as well). --Steinsplitter (talk) 12:12, 21 December 2017 (UTC)
Your bot tagged File:Dhirendra Dubey.jpg but it missed File:Dhirendra Dubey On Shop.jpg, which is clearly a Wiki Zero upload. I believe your bot is missing files. Magog the Ogre (talk) (contribs) 02:58, 24 December 2017 (UTC)
@Magog the Ogre: I suspect because of the replication lag... :/. Changed host to wikireplica-web.--Steinsplitter (talk) 07:02, 24 December 2017 (UTC)

User rights

Although I appreciate being given Rollback privileges, you inexplicably removed me File movers, which I do need. Please restore that. Useddenim (talk) 15:16, 27 December 2017 (UTC)

@Useddenim: Hi, Accidentally removed filemove instead of the redundant autopatrolled. Fixed, sorry!. --Steinsplitter (talk) 15:25, 27 December 2017 (UTC)
Thank you. Useddenim (talk) 15:33, 27 December 2017 (UTC)
May you keep up to the resolutions you make, do away with the mistakes you commit, inculcate new values in you, build a strong foundation for success and shine like a star. Wishing you a Happy New Year.
