Thanks for uploading Image:Turkish_battleship_Mesudiye.jpg. I notice the image page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the media on Wikimedia Commons (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page. If the content is a derivative of a copyrighted work, you need to supply the names and a licence of the original authors as well.

If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag, then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then you can use {{self|GFDL|cc-by-sa-all}} to release it under the multilicense GFDL plus Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike All-version license or {{PD-self}} to release it into the public domain. See Commons:Copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

Note that any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have uploaded other media, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. You can find all your uploads using the Gallery tool.

When nominating many images for the same reason, please do a group nomination. This saves effort for all involved. Thanks.  — Mike.lifeguard | @en.wb 18:45, 7 September 2008 (UTC)

I'm not sure that the cases are all the same here. Or that it always is easier. Bundled nominations can be messy to comment on, and to close, since it's not always clear which of the nominated items comments apply to. But I'll certainly keep it in mind. Thanks, Angus McLellan (Talk) 21:21, 7 September 2008 (UTC)

List of bot-uploaded Geograph.org.uk images

Hi, sorry, I didn't see your message until right now...

Bot/tool to add location?

Are you aware of any tool that makes it easy to add locations to pics, especially those transferred from geograph? I see you have added locations to the files I have migrated from en.wikipedia, for which I thank you, and I'd do it myself if there was an easier way than going on to each geograph's page in turn and manually transferring the data. --TimTay (talk) 12:42, 18 September 2008 (UTC)

Geograph Geocodes

Hi. Thanks for picking up on some of the geograph images, but if there's a {{Location}} tag there, could you leave it please? The geocodes on geograph are almost never right, and any I've actually bothered to geocode are the correct ones. The ones not geocoded I just haven't got to yet - I'm mired in Bristol Parkway railway station. Thanks. -mattbuck (Talk) 23:12, 6 October 2008 (UTC)

Oh, and generally thanks for deleting the transwikied images fron en.wp. -mattbuck (Talk) 23:18, 6 October 2008 (UTC)
No bother. Did I overwrite one? I usually manage to avoid that. Angus McLellan (Talk) 23:35, 6 October 2008 (UTC)
Only one, so no problem. It made me get off my ass and code the other ones as well before I forget which they are ;) -mattbuck (Talk) 23:54, 6 October 2008 (UTC)
Sounds reasonable, but I was banned from en.wp once (3RR), and am apparently at fault for almost killing the Ffestiniog Railway wikiproject (or they'd have me believe that) by moving images to commons. -mattbuck (Talk) 22:40, 9 October 2008 (UTC)
Well, from what I've heard, one year is still recent enough for people to deny an rfa. As for the FR project, see Talk:Ffestiniog_Railway#An_apology (ok, not a wikiproject) - in short I transwikied images and tagged some for deletion and because I edited an article I "terminally demotivated" someone, and then got accused of waging a crusade against the FR. In the mean time I added some 300-500 photos of the FR to commons. Go figure. -mattbuck (Talk) 23:08, 9 October 2008 (UTC)

Flickr review

Good day. As a result of your request at Commons talk:Flickr images/reviewers, I have added you to the reviewers list. Please see the instructions at Commons:Flickr images/reviewers and add {{User trusted}} to your userpage. You can ask me if you need any help. Best regards, --Kanonkas(talk) 19:40, 14 October 2008 (UTC)

Thanks. I've already skimmed the instructions, but I'll be sure and read them carefully before marking anything reviewed. Angus McLellan (Talk) 19:57, 14 October 2008 (UTC)

Painting Cropping

Hallo, painting cropping is easy with the freeware Irfanview and Perspective Transformations. Switch the drop done line to rectangle and you can correct the paintings. Afterwards cropping can be done with Irfan itself. --Marku1988 (talk) 15:22, 20 October 2008 (UTC)

Image:Portrait of Hans Schellenberger nee Ehem (1507).jpg is something for Mr. Copperfield. For me the resolution is to bad to umprove the pic. Perhaps you like my new bug more than the old one. --Marku1988 (talk) 07:02, 21 October 2008 (UTC)

Flickr review explanation

Hi, I saw you review two of my images that I uploaded from Flickr: Image:Torpoint Ferry.jpg and Image:Derriford Hospital from field.jpg. You expressed in the edit summaries that you didn't know why the bot didn't pick them up, because they had the same dimensions. I think the reason why is because I changed the colour settings on the image, which is allowed on the licenses. EvP (talk) 12:51, 25 October 2008 (UTC)

Could you also post this image onto this discussion. EvP (talk) 12:56, 25 October 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for the info. The image is already there: Sterkebak beat me to it. All the best, Angus McLellan (Talk) 15:46, 25 October 2008 (UTC)

Hello, Angusmclellan!
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.

BotMultichillT 07:06, 7 September 2009 (UTC)

artworks by Erik Heyl

I have added my rationale to all the deletion discussions, hopefully they will be accepted. My thinking here is the fact that the download pages for those artworks all contain the line "To the best of our knowledge, the pictures referenced here are all in the Public Domain, and can therefore be freely downloaded and used for any purpose."

Please feel free to leave a comment on my talk page if you have an questions or comments. Thanks Bonewah (talk) 21:05, 16 February 2010 (UTC)

PNG is inappropriate for photographs

I hope you have now stopped uploading photographs in PNG format - eg. File:Holme Lacy railway station 1.png. — RHaworth (Talk | contribs) 00:00, 24 March 2010 (UTC)

Probably not. I didn't even register that it wasn't a jpeg, which Geograph images always are. I think it will be a safe bet that it is not unique. Anything that was in png format on enwp will be in png format here. My slightly-better-than-cursory search finds the following which haven't already been tagged as available in jpeg: File:Ballykelly village.png, File:Ballyclare.png, File:Stewartstown.png, File:DungannonSE.png, File:Larne Harbour from Inver.png. I'll reupload those in jpeg later in the week. Angus McLellan (Talk) 21:20, 28 March 2010 (UTC)

I have uploaded File:Dungannon from SE 258959.jpg. I will leave you to upload a cropped version as a JPEG. All the others have been replaced - indeed two have been deleted within the last hour! — RHaworth (Talk | contribs) 21:23, 29 March 2010 (UTC)
