  • Please sign your name on Talk pages by typing ~~~~
  • Use the CommonSense tool to find good categories for your files (then other people can find them too!)
  • To link to an image page, write this: [[:Image:Foo.jpg]], it makes this: Image:Foo.jpg
  • If you're copying files from another project, be sure to use the CommonsHelper
Made a mistake?
  • Did you want to rename or move a file? Simply upload the file again and mark the old one like this: {{bad name|Correct name}}

(P.S. Would you like to provide feedback on this message?)


Categories that do not exist[edit]

Hi! I cannot see any good reason for adding not-existing categories to the .gif files in category:Future solar eclipses. Categories can be made when these eclipses actually occur, and photos become available. There is plenty of time for that. /Pieter Kuiper (talk) 06:38, 19 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I don't see any harm, and good advantage, since the singular category uploads tons of animated gifs which is confusing to find specific events and slow to view! Plus there's multiple types of pre-event charts for each eclipse event, so can be valuable to connect them together. I actually was lazy, uploaded to en.wiki, so currently only the gifs were moved to commons. Tomruen (talk) 03:04, 21 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Happy to see you here[edit]

Hi Tomruen, you popped up on my list. I plan on moving your uploads to Commons later this week. I created subcats of Category:Polytopes to match the enwp category en:Category:Polytopes. Do you think this is enough? Multichill (talk) 21:31, 8 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, the subcats are good! Thanks! Tomruen (talk) 21:38, 9 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

renaming files[edit]

Hi Tomruen.

If you need to rename a file, (like this one) please use {{Rename}} (eg. like this: {{rename|better file name|reason}} instead of uploading a duplicate. Thanks, Amada44  talk to me 08:01, 30 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks that sounds better! Tomruen (talk) 20:53, 30 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

GJ 581 orbits[edit]

Hey, thanks for proving that the file format for exoplanet orbit diagrams is sufficiently comprehensible that other people can edit them. If you've got any suggestions for how to make them better and more easily editable, it'd be good to hear them. Cheers, Icalanise (talk) 23:24, 30 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Glad I could try, just embarressed to hack mixed-data! Seriously, great stuff - I've never seen a documented SVG file! :) I've just begin playing around with the format, simplest of things, points and lines. I'll probably steal some coding from your examples! So just keep up the comments! Tomruen (talk) 01:55, 1 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Don't worry about the mixed data thing, I've seen this done several times (usually in the case of the Mu Arae system) in actual refereed scientific papers by authors who you would think would know better. In fact the Extrasolar Planet Encyclopaedia's data for the Gliese 581 system [1] is mixed data. Funnily enough the EPE had mixed data for Mu Arae for quite a while too... Icalanise (talk) 20:42, 2 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Please use the correct date format[edit]

Hi Tomruen,

Thank you for your contributions to Commons. I noticed you mentioned a date on File:3 21 t2 A6.svg. Please know that in order for dates to be automatically detected and translated into other languages it needs to be in the YYYY-MM-DD format (ie. 2024-01 for January 2024 or 2024-04-27 for 27 April 2024). Also, for other (less specific) dates use {{Other date}} for centuries, ranges, 'circa' etc. like this: {{other date|between|1899|1903}} for "between 1899 and 1903

date QS:P,+1500-00-00T00:00:00Z/6,P1319,+1899-00-00T00:00:00Z/9,P1326,+1903-00-00T00:00:00Z/9

". This way the dates will be translated internally into the user's language preference. I've fixed it for you here. See for example the result in English: here. Thanks again. –Krinkletalk 01:37, 16 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Author field[edit]

Hi Self, Please use the Author-field for what it's intended for: The Author's (nick)name. I fixed an example here. Thanks,

deletion requests[edit]

Hi Tomruen,
you did not provide a rationale/reason why you want File:120-cell t0 B4.svg and File:600-cell t0 B4.svg to be deleted. --Túrelio (talk) 13:29, 3 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry. I uploaded them, and thought I could judge them without a reason. The B4 Coxeter plane has order-8 symmetry, while the B4 projection of the 120-cell/600-cells (H4 Coxeter group) have only order 4-symmetry, so its not a legitimate subgroup of H4. So in uploading new images of the other H4 family polytopes, I decided it was better to leave it off the articles. OTOH, the graphs are "correct" projections, so as you like. Tomruen (talk) 19:50, 3 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

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

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

Here's how:

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

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

[[Category:Category name]]

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

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

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

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

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

There seems to be a problem regarding the description and/or licensing of this particular file. It has been found that you've added in the image's description only a Template that's not a license and although it provides useful information about the image, it's not a valid license. Could you please resolve this problem, adding the license in the image linked above? You can edit the description page and change the text. Uploading a new version of the file does not change the description of the file. This page may give you more hints on which license to choose. Thank you.

Actually before you bother with that I would suggest you add the inner solar system in the same scale underneath for comparison
as they Sun and that Star are so similar the direct comparison is very valid. 24.78.172.60 09:59, 3 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Licenses[edit]

Hi Tom, I noticed that a number of images you've uploaded recently have been licensed with the {{PD}} template, which can no longer be used since it is ambiguous. If you would, please go back and change them to {{PD-self}} if you made them or some other appropriate license, otherwise, they may be deleted. I cannot do this since they were uploaded (and I assume created) by you and must be explicitly released by yourself. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to leave a note on my talk page. Thanks!

Thank you for providing images to Wikimedia Commons. Please keep in mind that images and other files on Commons must be under a free license and should be useful to the Wikimedia projects. To allow others to use your files, some additional information must be given on the description page. Most importantly:
  • Describe what it is about in a short sentence. (What does the image show?)
  • State the author and the date of creation. If you made it yourself, say so explicitly. If it is from another Wikimedia user, link to the person's local user page. Best to use CommonsHelper.
  • If you did not create the file yourself, state the source you got it from.
  • Add a copyright tag - images without an appropriate license tag will be deleted.
  • Add the image to one or more gallery pages and/or appropriate categories, so it can be found by others. To find out where an image belongs, you can use CommonsSense.

If you copied the file from another wiki, please copy all information given there and say who uploaded it to that wiki. Use CommonsHelper.

It is recommended to use Template:Information to put that information on the description page. Have a look at Template talk:Information for details of the use of this template.

Hi Tom, the following pages are leaking a copyright tag (e.g. {{attribution|nolink=Robert Webb|text=Creator: Robert Webb's Great Stella software - http://www.software3d.com/Stella.html}}). Just tell me what you think is appropriate and I'll insert it for you. Kind regards Rillke(q?) 11:39, 13 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Also it would be kind if you could use standard date format (YYYY-MM-DD) and insert permission templates into the |permission= parameter (and not "yes", because this isn't realistically useful). Thanks in advance. -- Rillke(q?) 11:45, 13 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I'm sorry for the trouble. Thanks for helping. I'm a long time editor, but still confused what is needed. I generated the images from software I purchased, and included the attribution in kindness to the author. Its the same source as File:Hexahedron.png, so I thought {{Stella image}} would be sufficient. I'll try to do the currect date format in the future. Tomruen (talk) 18:39, 13 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
My fault. The problem was this vandalism which I didn't expect. I regret the confusion. Thank you for your contributions to Commons. Please feel welcome. If you have a question, don't hesitate to ask me. Best regards -- Rillke(q?) 20:16, 13 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

File:Lattice p5-type15.png[edit]

Thanks for the image. There seems to be an error in that in the leftmost yellow pentagon the red 2a edge is switched with the green d edge. I'm also wondering if you have this as an SGF file, which would make it easier for others (such as me) to do that change. SebastianHelm (talk) 00:19, 21 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I did them pretty quick, in MSPaint markups of images from the Applet. I corrected and I know there's some other corrections needed elsewhere. What is an SGF file? SVG? Tomruen (talk) 23:06, 21 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Oops, yes, SVG is what I meant. SGF is the Smart Game Format, with which I've been involved some 12 years ago. Funny that that would suddenly pop up in my memory! SebastianHelm (talk) 23:59, 21 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Its easier for me to work with PNG, but (after they're verified) if someone wants to trace nicer ones in InkScape or something, that's all good. Tomruen (talk) 00:11, 22 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
If you start out with PNG, don't worry about it; I just didn't think that's what you did. I don't think it would make much sense to convert them: It's not a trivial step, and I wouldn't want to deprive you of the chance to edit them subsequently. But out of curiosity: Why don't you use a vector graphic program? InkScape is nice, and it's free. SebastianHelm (talk) 01:04, 22 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I tried Inkscape and some things are frustrating, so probably just a learning curve. I mainly make SVG files as exports from various script programs I'll write. Most of the images here en:Euclidean_tilings_of_convex_regular_polygons are SVG, but some are PNG because I wanted to hand-color k-isohedral, and my algorithm wouldn't do that trivially. Tomruen (talk) 01:11, 22 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, that would be quite a challenge to program that. But hand coloring is quite easy in InkScape, I did that with the graphics that I downloaded from SLU. It was two clicks per tile: One on the tile, and another one on the color in the color list at the bottom. SebastianHelm (talk) 01:21, 22 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
On second thought, the challenge shouldn't be so big. I assumed the algorithm had to figure it out, but you presumably already know which tiles are which k-type when you assemble them. Still, it's harder than doing it by hand. SebastianHelm (talk) 01:25, 22 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I have an ambition to add a SVG export to the Java application, which would make it easier, at least to get the exact initial geometry, and then line styles/colors, can be marked up in InkScape. But I've been lazy lately, so unsure when I'll try that. Tomruen (talk) 02:10, 22 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Categorization of image sets[edit]

Undercategorization

Hi Tomruen,

I wanted to talk to you about this for a long time. You often upload large sets of similar images. Would it really be too much work to throw all images of such a set in the same category? I mean: A category with a meaningful name, that you created for that very set of images? That would also be a place where you could write a few words about what the images show, what the parameters in the names mean, and how you created them.

E.g. in Conway polyhedra clearly belong together, just like . But this is something I have to guess. And this guessing becomes much harder, when the category becomes crowded. You are the one for whom it is easiest to verbalize what exactly these images have in common, so you are the one who can choose a good category name. Otherwise someone, likely me, will just pick some name - like Cube truncation set (blue and violet). (Feel free to choose a better one. Renaming is easy.)

When you create sets of images with some script, would it not be easy to generate a table of all the files and their properties on the way? To me that sounds like very little work - a few lines of code in some for loop - that would create a huge benefit, and would make your images much more useful. The category page would be the place where you can just dump that table.

In some cases BTW the problem is not just that your files will get lost in the desert, but that you create a desert that buries everything else: Your uploads like (most of them directly in Polyhedra) were so vast in number, that the category became pretty much unusable. No one asks you to do fancy Watchduck style categorization like Regular polygon truncation; by n or Duoprisms by size, but putting each set of similar things in a box with a name on it should really be no problem. I hope I can convince you that putting things in labelled boxes has real advantages over throwing things on heaps.

PS: I just discovered the polyHédronisme page. When I enter the name of your file on the page, I will get something completely different. Compare File:Conway dccdktkdI.png and recipe=dccdktkdI. What is wrong here?

You will have to change the author of theses files to Anselm Levskaya.

PPS: You should try Commonist instead of the Upload Wizard. That should save you some time you can use to make categories. :) Watchduck (quack) 02:19, 10 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I apologize for being lazy with categories. It is certainly tedious to try to add edit them later one-by-one by hand. On the Conway polyhedron generator, unfortunately you have to add some smoothing of coordinates that isn't part of the notation itself, like recipe=dccdktkdI, what works best often depends on each polyhedron. Tomruen (talk) 03:22, 10 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

With Cat-a-lot moving large amount of files is not that big a deal. But it indeed starts getting tedious, when you throw things on the same heap, that look exactly the same in the thumbnail view - like geodesic spheres and Goldberg polyhedra.
I don't even ask you not to be lazy with categories. If you don't bother to add the ortho-subdivision triangles to Triangular tilings and Yellow triangles, then someone else will. If you don't bother to add geodesic spheres to Geodesic spheres, then someone else will. The only thing I ask you to do, is to put the things you leave at the side of the road in a box, instead of just throwing them on the pavement. I don't ask you to categorize a single thing - just that you don't make it pointlessly hard for the people who do.
I better say it again: You are not the author of the files in Conway polyhedra; polyHedronisme, and you have to change it to Anselm Levskaya in every file, although this is certainly tedious.Watchduck (quack) 19:03, 10 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

By "box", do you mean I can make a category called tomruen-upload_Jan_10_2017?
And in terms of authorship, it does seem ambiguous. If I write a program, and someone else uses that program to generate an image, I'd call that person the "author" of the image, since they chose the parameters and perspective and such, but I of course agree ideally the generating software can be listed so others could reproduce them. And even if an image was NOT generated by a given software, if a given software can generate it, or something close, it can be useful to add as well. Tomruen (talk) 00:13, 11 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

By "box" I mean that you put similar files in the same category, and give it a somewhat descriptive name. (Don't be afraid of long and ugly category names. Renaming is easy.)

When you have a folder with Conway polyhedra downloaded from polyHédronisme on your computer, simply create Conway polyhedra; polyHedronisme, and throw them in there. (In case you have downloaded geodesic spheres and Goldberg polyhedra separately, all the better. Just make two categories.)

The point is that images of a big set should be only in their holding category, and further categorized through that: are all only in Conway polyhedra; ortho-subdivision triangles, and that category is e.g. in Yellow triangles. This way the images don't clutter all the categories they belong to, and it is easy to categorize even hundreds of images, simply by changing the one page that contains them all.

I don't understand how this can be so alien to you. You don't simply throw all your files on your desktop, right? And you probably don't throw nuts and bolts of different sizes in one big box labelled "nuts and bolts".

Concerning authorship: It says "Text & Figures CC-BY" on the bottom of the page. Such questions can be tricky, but I think in this case it is quite clear. Anyway, I don't really care about this. But many people do, and you don't know whether Mr. Levskaya is among them or not. Watchduck (quack) 02:46, 11 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Yay! Something like Conway polyhedra cube example is what I meant. Now please just avoid over-categorization. There is no point in having an image both in Conway polyhedra cube example and its parent Conway polyhedra.

I have a factual question: Are Goldberg polyhedra and Geodesic spheres subsets of Conway polyhedra, or are there GP and GS that are no CP? Greetings, Watchduck (quack) 23:54, 11 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Not quite. They're mostly just a lucky coincidence. Currently there is no Conway operator (in any real generator programs) to generate G(5,0) for instance, although such operators could be defined. Like[2] could be extended so say cm could generate G(m,0) and cm,n could generate G(m,n), or um,n = dcm,n for the "Geodesic spheres", subdivided triangular duals. Tomruen (talk)

I had assumed that images like are Hasse diagrams (like this one). Do these "example charts" have a name? Watchduck (quack) 18:04, 12 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

en:Hasse diagram is something very specific in set theory. The Conway chart is just an operational tree, could continue without limit, unsure what else to call it. The File:Regular hexagon symmetries2.png is different from Hasse Diagram as well, a subgroup tree, not complete, but shows the types of subgroups. Tomruen (talk)

Sounds like your operational trees are similar to en:Cayley graphs. Have you seen images like that elsewhere?
Images like File:Regular hexagon symmetries2.png show a partial order, which could be called "subsymmetry". So I don't think that I am overstretching the meaning of the term Hasse diagram here. When the image shows a lattice of subgroups it is definitely a Hasse diagram. But it does not have to be a lattice - just a poset. (Whether or not I am overstretching the term for files like File:Symmetric group S4; lattice of subgroups Hasse diagram.svg is something I still have to figure out.) Watchduck (quack) 20:30, 12 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, I suppose a subgroup tree can be called a Hasse diagram. It seems to add more confusion than clarity to me. But anyway the polyhedron operators are fully different. The en:Cayley graph attempts to show all the states of group, while the polyhedron operators are infinite. The only finite operator would be dual, so there are two states. Otherwise new polyhedra are always larger than old. Tomruen (talk) 21:45, 12 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

mistake in image[edit]

Hi Tomruen, I saw you corrected this image File:Obesity & BMI.png some years ago. There is another mistake, on top it should read height2. This 2 is missing. With my (old) graphic software I cannot correct this image, I made a Dutch version based on the spanish version. Do you have time to correct the image?

Something interesting[edit]

Hi Tom, considering the fact that you made various polygon-related articles and images, you may find this interesting. Believe or not, as you can see there are some practical architectural examples of regular icosidigons, triacontagons, triacontadigons, triacontatrigons, triacontatetragons, triacontahexagons and so on. Some eight centuries years ago, in a remote rural place, they constructed even a regular hexacontaheptagon (?!). :) You can illustrate your articles with such tower examples. --Orijentolog (talk) 23:16, 28 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Orijentolog: Hello, I'm from Iran and I've been to some of them (I'm not TomRuen) + Iran wasn't a remote rural place. At least in the Middle Ages Europe was more remote. Thanks, Hirbod Foudazi2 (talk) 04:51, 18 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Hirbod Foudazi2: valleys of Alborz are remote by Iran's standards! :) --Orijentolog (talk) 04:58, 18 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Orijentolog: No they are not. We had Alamoot civilization until Mongols attack. Even now they are less remote than some great desserts in Iran. Hirbod Foudazi2 (talk) 05:05, 18 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Hirbod Foudazi2: that's why Ismailis built castles there (not "civilization"), because it's very remote, and therefore safe. :) There's no need for geographic lessons, I'm an author of the largest article about the topic (sh:Geografija Irana) which exist on Wikimedia projects. ;) --Orijentolog (talk) 05:09, 18 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Orijentolog: Why should they make castles if they are safe? Castles are not a reason for being remote. For example Meybod has a castle too.

A geografical question: Where is Parviz Mt.?

for want of a degenerate polyhedron[edit]

Have I already urged you to extend File:Great stellated dodecahedron truncations.gif and File:Small stellated dodecahedron truncations.gif so that they loop through the cantellates (even though they are degenerate) rather than jumping?

I recognize that's nontrivial, in that it would mean adding a third set of faces. —Tamfang (talk) 23:58, 17 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Categories again[edit]

Please understand, that commons uses categories. They are not tags, they are not keywords, and they are not optional.
Adding inexistent categories to images is as good as adding no categories at all. Here are some recent examples where you did that:

BTW: Please do not destroy you own work by overwriting images. Overwriting is for improvements. (See File:Zonish-tetrahedron.gif.) Watchduck (quack) 20:56, 28 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

File:EightTNOs.png 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!
