Welcome to Wikimedia Commons, Trevj!

First steps tutorial Our first steps tour and our frequently asked questions will help you a lot after registration. They explain how to customize the interface (for example the language), how to upload files and our basic licensing policy (Wikimedia Commons only accepts free content). You don't need technical skills in order to contribute here. Be bold when contributing and assume good faith when interacting with others. This is a wiki. Getting help More information is available at the community portal. You may ask questions at the help desk, village pump or on IRC channel #wikimedia-commons (webchat). You can also contact an administrator on their talk page. If you have a specific copyright question, ask at the copyright village pump.

Goodies, tips, and tricks Put Babel boxes on your user page so others know what languages you can speak and indicate your graphic abilities. You can find the files you have uploaded in your Uploads. Please sign your name on Talk pages by typing ~~~~. To link to an image page without embedding the image, type: [[:File:Foo.jpg]], which produces: File:Foo.jpg. You may enable gadgets (custom features) for your account. There are several tools to upload files. Have you edited Wikipedia before? This guide might be useful. Made a mistake? Do you want to have a file renamed or moved? Use the move link and wait for an authorized user to rename it. Do you want to have your recently uploaded picture removed? Tag it as {{speedy|reason here}}. For more information read the deletion guidelines.

Hielo-azul.svg edit notification

Hi, thank you for your feedback, you have contacted me to alter File:Hielo-azul.svg because the preview image was too dark compared to File:Hielo.png. I have edited the file and I think it is lighter now, I have also added color-interpolation to the filter section of this file, so what you see should be what Wiki's preview image will look like.

If you still want to modify the lightness more to your liking, than I suggest that you look for the following line of code, inside the file, opened up in a text-editor, and alter its k1-4 attributes up and down slightly until it's to your liking.

<feComposite in="r1" in2="r3" operator="arithmetic" k1="1" k2=".3" k3=".6" k4="-.1" result="r4"/>

Or, contact me again. Regards --Wgabrie (talk) 14:16, 31 August 2011 (UTC)

OK, thanks for the amendment. I'll have another look at this. --Trevj (talk) 11:58, 7 September 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for letting me know. -- Trevj (talk) 09:20, 10 January 2012 (UTC)

Hello, Trevj. You have new messages at Svgalbertian's talk page. You may remove this notice at any time by removing the {{Talkback}} or {{Tb}} template.

Re: Commons talk:SVG Check

Firstly I'd like to apologise for not getting back to you sooner on this one; I completely manage to miss your post. Looking at the issue now, I can't recreate the problem you were having, can you? Or does it seem to have resolved itself in the mean time? Regards, Jarry1250 (talk) 22:11, 31 January 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for the message - no problem about the delay. I'll have a look at this again and see if it's still applicable. Cheers. -- Trevj (talk) 13:10, 2 February 2012 (UTC)

Autopatrol given

Hello. I just wanted to let you know that I have granted autopatrol rights to your account; the reason for this is that I believe you are sufficiently trustworthy and experienced to have your contributions automatically marked as "reviewed". This has no effect on your editing, it is simply intended to make it easier for users that are monitoring Recent changes or Recent uploads to find unproductive edits amidst the productive ones like yours. In addition, the Flickr upload feature and an increased number of batch-uploads in UploadWizard, uploading of freely licensed MP3 files, overwriting files uploaded by others and an increased limit for page renames per minute are now available to you. Thank you. Cheers --Saibo (Δ) 02:09, 6 February 2012 (UTC)

Cheers. -- Trevj (talk) 02:58, 6 February 2012 (UTC)

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.

This message was added automatically by Nikbot, if you need some help about it please read the text above again and follow the links in it, if you still need help ask at the → Commons:Help desk in any language you like to use. --Nikbot 12:54, 12 March 2012 (UTC)

Just caught up on that now, thanks! -- Trevj (talk) 12:55, 12 March 2012 (UTC)

This sounds like a fair cop. I uploaded it a year ago, and would like to think I'm less naive now! -- Trevj (talk) 21:09, 24 March 2012 (UTC)

Reuse authorizations

Thanks for warning me about the reuse authorization of

• Ronald graham writing.jpg
• Ronald graham juggling.jpg
• Ronald graham couple with erdos 1986.jpg

May I say that it is a little surprising to have a 7 days time to prove authorization for files which have been submitted 5 years ago? I understand you are not making the rules here, but well, seems incoherent all the same.

Here is the e-mail exchange with Fang Chung Graham, the photographer. If it is not enough, would you mind sending her an e-mail explaining what she has to do?

Email exchange

:Dear Mrs Graham, I'm a french contributor to the french encyclopedia Wikipedia ( http://wikipedia.org/ ) We would be happy to include some photographies of Ronald Graham on its article page http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ronald_Graham and on its translated versions in other languages. I've found, using Google, some interesting pictures on two pages hosted on your website. http://math.ucsd.edu/~fan/ron/jug.html http://www.math.ucsd.edu/~fan/photo/ep.html Could you possibly give us the permission to put some of them on Wikipedia, under a free license ? ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_license#Free_content_licenses ) Thank you in advance for your answer, Best regards, xxx Dear xxx, Sure, you are welcome using these photos. Fan Thank you very much. They will be published on Wikimedia Commons under a copyleft license, unless you prefer another license.

Regards, --Pethrus (talk) 09:54, 29 March 2012 (UTC)

Hi and thanks for the message - sorry if the tagging was an impersonal way of doing this. Don't worry about the timescale, as I'm sure files can be undeleted if the permissions arrive later. Anyway, I've emailed as suggested, but note that Mrs Graham's website warns about spam filters. -- Trevj (talk) 13:36, 29 March 2012 (UTC)

Anti-spam was not an issue 5 years ago at this same address, let's hope it won't be this time either. Thanks for emailing. --Pethrus (talk) 15:03, 29 March 2012 (UTC)

The email address used is at laposte.net, which has caused some problems for me in the past. If we've heard nothing in a few days, perhaps you could drop Mrs Graham a note asking to check the spam folder for that domain. Cordialement. -- Trevj (talk) 15:11, 29 March 2012 (UTC)

Is'nt Fan Chung email adress at math.ucsd.edu ? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pethrus (talk • contribs) 09:51, 30 March 2012‎ (UTC)

I used fan at ucsd.edu. I meant the laposte address is for incoming mail from me! Sorry for the ambiguity. -- Trevj (talk) 10:07, 30 March 2012 (UTC)

Oh, allright. Should you have no answer in a couple days, I will send her another mail. --Pethrus (talk) 11:28, 30 March 2012 (UTC)

Hi again. The date has now expired and so these have been deleted. They could be reinstated via Undeletion requests if the permission is received. If you could please check whether my email was received that'd be helpful. Thanks very much. -- Trevj (talk) 07:56, 12 April 2012 (UTC)

Sure. Could you send me the e-mail you sent her? Thanks. --Pethrus (talk) 13:38, 12 April 2012 (UTC)

No problem:
