Rename request[edit]

Renamed File:Miscellaneous Papers on Mechanical Subjects.djvu. If you need these put in place for work at WS, then drop a line on my talk page, and I will attempt to expedite the rename process. By the way, for future files, it would be useful it you were able to lose the Google page at the front. I use DjVuLibre for the task (when I remember). — billinghurst sDrewth 10:04, 7 March 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Thank you! I should've cleaned up the file, but I wasn't quite sure of the usual practice. I'll do so, and re-upload it, before I start transcribing anything (so the page numbering doesn't get mucked up). — Sam Wilson ( Talk • Contribs ) … 10:44, 7 March 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]

This media was probably deleted.

A file that you have uploaded to Wikimedia Commons, File:Fremantle Society logo.jpg, was missing information about where it comes from or who created it, which is needed to verify its copyright status. The file probably has been deleted. If you've got all required information, request undeletion providing this information and the link to the concerned file ([[:File:Fremantle Society logo.jpg]]).

If you created the content yourself, enter {{Own}} as the source. If you did not add a licensing template, you must add one. You may use, for example, {{self|GFDL|cc-by-sa-all}} or {{Cc-zero}} to release certain rights to your work.

If someone else created the content, or if it is based on someone else's work, the source should be the address to the web page where you found it, the name and ISBN of the book you scanned it from, or similar. You should also name the author, provide verifiable information to show that the content is in the public domain or has been published under a free license by its author, and add an appropriate template identifying the public domain or licensing status, if you have not already done so. Warning: Wikimedia Commons takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

Please add the required information for this and other files you have uploaded before adding more files. If you need assistance, please ask at the help desk. Thank you!

Thanks for uploading File:Fremantle Society logo.jpg. This media is missing permission information. A source is given, but there is no proof that the author or copyright holder agreed to license the file under the given license. Please provide a link to an appropriate webpage with license information, or ask the author or copyright holder to send an email with copy of a written permission to VRT (permissions-commons@wikimedia.org). You may still be required to go through this procedure even if you are the author yourself; please see Commons:But it's my own work! for more details. After you emailed permission, you may replace the {{No permission since}} tag with {{subst:PP}} on file description page. Alternatively, you may click on "Challenge speedy deletion" below the tag if you wish to provide an argument why evidence of permission is not necessary in this case.

Please see this page for more information on how to confirm permission, or if you would like to understand why we ask for permission when uploading work that is not your own, or work which has been previously published (regardless of whether it is your own).

The file probably has been deleted. If you sent a permission, try to send it again after 14 days. Do not re-upload. When the VRT-member processes your mail, the file can be undeleted. Additionally you can request undeletion here, providing a link to the File-page on Commons where it was uploaded ([[:File:Fremantle Society logo.jpg]]) and the above demanded information in your request.

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.

Commons:Deletion requests/File:2013-08-11 0740 Freopedia plaque at Moore's Building.JPG[edit]

[Question copied from DR]
"But the oval plaque isn't by a long shot the subject of the photo. Does that count for anything? I've no idea about the rules of how to feature copyrighted stuff I'm afraid. Surely it's permitted in some forms? I mean, you don't mention the other sign in this photo, so I presume that's okay?" Sam Wilson ( Talk • Contribs ) … 12:27, 11 August 2013 (UTC)

Yes, actually it does count for something, but not enough, see Commons:De minimis. The question here is "what is the subject of the photo". The filename suggests that it is the Freopedia plaque, but that is so small that it is certainly not the principal subject. The Freopedia plaque is there because the Moore Building is historic, so presumably the real subject of the photo is the Moore Building and its historicity. In that context, the plaque describing the building is an important part of the image, so Fastily and I agreed that it was not de minimis. I did not mention the other sign and the sandwich board because neither has enough on it to rise to the level of copyrightable.

There are no hard and fast rules on this and on any given image experienced editors may disagree. If a notable person had been in the image, then the plaque would, in my view, have been de minimis. But in assessing an image taken to show one information plaque you cannot ignore the other, larger, information plaque nearby.

If you have questions, you may ask them at the Village Pump in any of 42 languages or on my talk page. I will also watch for questions here on your talk page for at least a week. . Jim . . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 11:04, 19 August 2013 (UTC)Reply[reply]

If you are the copyright holder and the creator of the file, please read Commons:But it's my own work! for tips on how to provide evidence of that.

The file you added has been deleted. If you have written permission from the copyright holder, please have them send us a free license release via COM:VRT.

Have a look at my edits[edit]

I have created a few extra categories for when we upload photos from the trip - cheers JarrahTree (talk) 10:54, 13 March 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Have been adding cats randomly[edit]

Very 'unsystematic' hope you dont mind - it is one way to get a metric - as in total photos that get uploaded - and the potential for extra articles and things... North Wharf/North Quay seems a bit like Packenham/Pakenham - probably a few seealso/redirect might be in line... JarrahTree (talk) 10:24, 15 March 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]

@JarrahTree: Oh, mind?! Not in the least! Of course, categorise away. :-) I've been trying to look up IMO numbers of the ships. Oh, and I may possibly have a chance to talk to a crew member of the RNZN ship later this week. — Sam Wilson ( Talk • Contribs ) … 10:28, 15 March 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]

IA-upload time from djvu creation to upload here?[edit]

The bot has done the creation according to the log, though 2½ hr later, still no upload. I am presuming that is not normal. I presume that I have to prod you, there is no instruction on what to do when things stall. Thx. — billinghurst sDrewth 12:58, 18 March 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]

@Billinghurst: yeah sometimes it hangs and has to be prodded. :-( There are currently no procedures about how to handle this, because I'm looking at it sort of daily to see what's going wrong and hopefully fixing the tool if that's what's at fault. The best thing to do to figure out why it's not uploading is to look at the log; there's a link on the homepage of the tool. What IA item were you trying to upload? I'll have a look at it. — Sam Wilson ( Talk • Contribs ) … 13:04, 18 March 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]

armaghclergypari00lesl and nothing there helpful to me to diagnose the issue. — billinghurst sDrewth 14:45, 18 March 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]

@Billinghurst: Hm, it looks like it's just running out of memory and not completing. 518 pages is a lot, unforunately. I'll see what can be done. (And it's a tricky one to make it provide better log info about, because it just bombs out and so can't give the script a chance to say anything). — Sam Wilson ( Talk • Contribs ) … 21:43, 18 March 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Wasn't criticising, just indicating that I looked and didn't think that it said so. Can the system count pages and and proportionalately allocate extra memory for jobs? Or even a tick box at form time — when asking about front page y/n — indicating if page count is 400 > 500; 500 > 600; +++ ? — billinghurst sDrewth 22:31, 18 March 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]

@Billinghurst: I increased the memory allowance of ia-upload and File:Armagh clergy and parishes.djvu got uploaded. Is it correct? In phab:T161396 I'll also add a 500 page limit, or warning. — Sam Wilson ( Talk • Contribs ) … 03:44, 7 April 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]

After all of that, no text layer. <shrug> — billinghurst sDrewth 11:19, 7 April 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]

License tagging[edit]

Hi Samwilson, I love what the IA-upload bot is doing. One minor thing: I just made this change to the license tag on your example case. Any way to make such manual changes unnecessary, or to coach the bot/user through the process? LeadSongDog (talk) 21:53, 24 March 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]

@LeadSongDog: yes, great idea! I'm not sure about the death date parameter, because that's not very retrievable from IA, but the pre-1923 tag should be doable. Could you open a ticket in Phabricator?

The other thing I've been wondering about is linking the book template with Wikidata, so that if a Wikidata item exists for a given edition then that sort of info can be pulled from there. It'd have to be done via a wikidata_id template parameter, rather than a sitelink, but that should be fine. Then we could get author info, copyright info, as well as sitelinks to Wikisources etc.

— Sam Wilson ( Talk • Contribs ) … 23:41, 24 March 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]

I'm not very phab-savy, it might be better if you raised it. Each IA entry should already have an extant OL entry linked, this could be harvested and developed. There's work going on, albeit slowly, to improve the links between OL and Wikidata, e.g. https://github.com/internetarchive/openlibrary/issues/144 which might pertain. Birth and death dates are usually available from VIAF (http://viaf.org/viaf/444796/ or https://viaf.org/viaf/27063124) or ISNI (http://www.isni.org/isni/0000000061343104 or http://www.isni.org/isni/0000000121251077), at least in the case of major authors. LeadSongDog (talk) 18:46, 27 March 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]

I just used it to upload File:Don_Caesar_de_Bazan.djvu and noted a couple of issues. The template couldn't easily handle multiple authors, though I worked around that as best I could. The google first page issue should really be autodetected and autohandled, I got it wrong and others will too. Still, it was quick and easy. Thank you.LeadSongDog (talk) 20:41, 27 March 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]

@LeadSongDog: I removed the cover page. You're right, it shouldn't be manual; but for the time being I think I'm not going to have the time to do anything else (it'd be possible to run it through the Google Vision API logo-detection thingo, and delete based on that, I suspect; not sure if there would be false positives though, which would be bad). — Sam Wilson ( Talk • Contribs ) … 23:47, 27 March 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Tables in file descriptions[edit]

Hi Sam. If you use editsource when looking at [[File:Thysanotus patersonii DistributionMap.png]], you will see that I have tried to insert a table into the description. Is there some way of doing this? Hoping you can help. Regards, MargaretRDonald (talk) 01:02, 4 April 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

@MargaretRDonald: It's a common problem: any time you need to use a pipe character | inside a template, it can confuse things. The ! magic word can be used instead (replace all the table-pipes with {{!}}) but probably the easier thing to do in this case is to move the table outside the {{Description}} template. — Sam Wilson ( Talk • Contribs ) … 01:07, 4 April 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

@Samwilson: Thanks, Sam. (So where do I move it to?) MargaretRDonald (talk) 01:43, 4 April 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

@MargaretRDonald: I made this change to put the table below the {{Information}} template. I think there's some incorrect formatting within the table though — where should the 'BRT' cell be? — Sam Wilson ( Talk • Contribs ) … 01:54, 4 April 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Thanks, Sam. All fixed now (and now I know where to put a table) Regards, MargaretRDonald (talk) 03:45, 4 April 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Google Code-In 2019 is coming - please mentor some documentation tasks![edit]

Hello,

Google Code-In, Google-organized contest in which the Wikimedia Foundation participates, starts in a few weeks. This contest is about taking high school students into the world of opensource. I'm sending you this message because you recently edited a documentation page at Wikimedia Commons.

I would like to ask you to take part in Google Code-In as a mentor. That would mean to prepare at least one task (it can be documentation related, or something else - the other categories are Code, Design, Quality Assurance and Outreach) for the participants, and help the student to complete it. Please sign up at the contest page and send us your Google account address to google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org, so we can invite you in!

From my own experience, Google Code-In can be fun, you can make several new friends, attract new people to your wiki and make them part of your community.

If you have any questions, please let us know at google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org.

Thank you!

Curious about the history of exactly which licenses work on Wikimedia Commons, would love some pointers[edit]

Hi Sam -- we've connected on Mastodon, I'm the Community Manager for Flickr Commons and do some outreach for Flickypedia. I have been poking around this week looking at the history of the way Flickr's "no known copyright" (NKC) designation is or is not accepted on Wikimedia Commons. Here are the things I know:

if you use the WC upload wizard you can share NKC content from Flickr Commons with the "share images" button
if you use Flickr2Commons images with NKC it silently fails and I'm not sure if this is by design because of the odd status of NKC or just a bug (I did check here and it was not clarifying)
I read the discussions linked off of this page

Since this is not entirely my native habitat, though I am a regular Wikipedia user, I wanted to reach out and ask you if you think something has changed in terms of how WC accepts NKC licenses, or if this is just a quirky bug in F2C? If the former, something has changed, if you could point me towards a discussion so I could go read it and get my head around it, I'd be super grateful. We're stoked about the development of Flickypedia but really want to make sure we understand this aspect of the background and our partners at WMF suggested reaching out. Thanks for any info you have. Jessamyn (talk) 15:57, 12 August 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

@Jessamyn: I'm not really sure of the history of it all, I'm afraid. It looks like the No known copyright restrictions license is listed here as a valid license in F2C (and nothing's changed there recently). I can't see anything that would be making it fail differently to other licenses. The licenses.setLicense API method says it can't be used there (presumably because it can only be set by Flickr Commons partners and not normal accounts), but that doesn't matter for Wikimedia Commons' purposes, and licenses.getInfo still returns it (not that either of our tools are dynamically looking up the licenses). Sorry I can't be of more help! Sam Wilson 01:27, 13 August 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

No worries. Any and all information is helpful. Thank you. Jessamyn (talk) 15:46, 18 August 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
