Jeffrey Epstein image

Hi Denniss,

I would like to repost the profile photo of Jeffrey Epstein which you deleted. The photo is indeed the copyright ownership of the Jeffrey Epstein VI Foundation. However, the image may be used freely by the public with a creative common attribution: please see their website link that states this: http://www.jeffreyepstein.org/Contact.html

Could you remove the image from deletion or let me know the most effective way to do this? The file photo in question is: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Jeffrey_Epstein%2C_at_Harvard_University%2C_April_2012.jpg

Thank you for your assistance! Turvill (talk) 16:29, 15 October 2013 (UTC)

{{Stop}} on User:CommonsDelinker/commands

Hello, is there any reason why you stopped the bots?  Hazard-SJ  ✈  01:58, 18 June 2013 (UTC)

Bot does not work since May 10th, with Stop we won't lose commands issued there. Nobody knows what happens with the commands removed by DelinkerHelper. --Denniss (talk) 02:00, 18 June 2013 (UTC)

Oh, how strange. I'm guessing if and when it's finally working, we'd need to re-add all of those requests to be re-processed? Is a replacement needed? If so I could try it out. Also, since my bot (and SieBot) operated from there, they would be affected(? at least mine takes {{Stop}} into account). I'm currently considering branching off to a new page for this task. What's your opinion?  Hazard-SJ  ✈  02:06, 18 June 2013 (UTC)

Something at Toolserver broke and Delinker couldn't work without. I don't have any information what's going on there, I hope they get it working at Labs if the Toolserver can't be fixed. We currently have the Java-based Commons:GlobalReplace in Alpha-stage and a replacement script at User:Sreejithk2000/JustReplace.js to help with this stuff but we are always open for ideas. If multiple Bots are affected by this Stop the other option may be to block DelinkerHelper so it doesn't remove commands? If Delinker starts working again we'll see whether the issued commands were stored or lost. That would be a lot of work to restore the Commands from the page history. --Denniss (talk) 02:21, 18 June 2013 (UTC)

I'm going to send Bryan an email about this to see if I can get an update on this. If I get no response soon, should a replacement be considered, or should we leave it to the scripts that you mentioned above? Also, I could change my bot to ignore {{Stop}} if necessary.  Hazard-SJ  ✈  02:29, 18 June 2013 (UTC)

see https://jira.toolserver.org/browse/COMMONSDELINKER-24--Steinsplitter (talk) 10:04, 18 June 2013 (UTC)

I haven't gotten any reply from Bryan so far, but it seems it's just an issue of having the incorrect password according to Krinkle. Also, I've just updated my bot to ignore {{Stop}}.  Hazard-SJ  ✈  22:59, 19 June 2013 (UTC)

Schön wenn es so einfach wäre und doof das sowas einfaches nicht repariert werden kann. Die ganzen Fehlermeldungen in den Logs scheinen aber auf mehr zu schließen. Auf jeden Fall sollte der Bot aber mehr Maintainer mit Vollzugriff bekommen, kann ja nicht sein das gar nichts mehr geht wenn Bryan gerade nicht erreichbar ist. Das Gleich trifft auch auf den DRBot zu der momentan die monatlichen DR Unterseiten nur auf manuellen Auftrag des Maintainers (Bryan) erstellt da die Autofunktion spinnt/hängt. --Denniss (talk) 23:42, 19 June 2013 (UTC)

Kannst du das bitte hier sagen? Das Bot ist noch auf den "instabilen" Toolserver, wenn niemand die Bugs kommentiert, dann wird das bot sicherlich nicht nach tools.wikimedia.org umgezogen oder verbessert (oder was auch immer). Danke.--Steinsplitter (talk) 10:08, 19 July 2013 (UTC)

Der Umzug zu den Labs ist wohl geplant aber noch mit Schwierigkeiten verbunden. Das Bryan oft schwer zu erreichen ist und seine Bots oft keinen anderen Maintainer haben, sollte auch bekannt sein. Scheinbar kümmert es aber keinen. Wir haben ja momentan scheinbar nicht einmal mehr einen Bot für Wartungsaugaben wie doppelte redirects und anderen kram da unter Anderem der Schlurcherbot inaktiv ist. --Denniss (talk) 12:03, 23 July 2013 (UTC)

Der Delinker streikt gerade mal wieder ... --Denniss (talk) 15:10, 3 August 2013 (UTC)

Er sollte sich eigendlich von alleine neu starten. Aber ich sehe gerade beide prozesse sind da. Wie genau "streiken"?--Steinsplitter (talk) 15:14, 3 August 2013 (UTC)

User:CommonsDelinker/commands, ich sehe. Ich schreibe Hoo_man eine Mail dass er ihn restarten soll.--Steinsplitter (talk) 15:16, 3 August 2013 (UTC)

Danke, zumindestens der Helper geht wieder; beim Delinker ist's noch Zappenduster. Die Aufträge zum Ersatz von z.B. dem Bild tauchen zwar auf aber keine Edits vom Delinker hier. --Denniss (talk) 17:29, 3 August 2013 (UTC)

Muß wohl 'ne Datenbank am Toolserver kaputt sein, Flickrreview macht auch gerade nix mehr. --Denniss (talk) 17:37, 3 August 2013 (UTC)

Q on image deletion

Regarding your deletion of File:OK Go - This Too Shall Pass Marching Band Version.png, I note that the original file had come from the band's own flickr account (high assurance that is theres) under a CC-BY license [1], so while (when I first saw it) I was incredulous about its inclusion at first, it seems all above the board for the band to put its own videos online. --Masem (talk) 00:17, 22 June 2013 (UTC)

Hi, Kannst du bitte einen Blick auf die Dateiverschieber-Anträge werfen? Da sind einige Wappen umbenannt worden die teilweise über 500 Mal eingebunden sind. Leider verstehe ich kein Französisch um die verlinkte Diskussion zu verstehen. Danke und LG--Steinsplitter (talk) 09:13, 22 June 2013 (UTC)

Ein paar konnten ersetzt werden, andere habe ich zurückverschoben und den Verschieber um einen Aufschub einer erneuten Verschiebung gebeten. So eine Schiebung ...... --Denniss (talk) 11:15, 22 June 2013 (UTC)

CommonsDelinker

Hello Dennis. Just what I want is that the right picture has the right name, in accordance with wiki:fr. I've used the move+replace tab as you say. I just would like to rename File:Blason_region_fr_Poitou-Charentes.svg to File:Poitou blason.svg, because Blason_region_fr_Poitou-Charentes.svg is in fact File:Poitou-Charentes blason.svg, to make it all clean. How can we do ? Jack ma (talk) 12:12, 22 June 2013 (UTC)

Please wait for the devs to fix CommonsDelinker, then move it again or directly ask me or another admin for move. Moving flags and shields is always problematic because of template usage (templates may be locked from editing). --Denniss (talk) 12:22, 22 June 2013 (UTC)

Ok. I didn't know about CommonsDelinker problem. Do you know since when it is down ? And roughly when it will be fixed ? Jack ma (talk) 13:40, 22 June 2013 (UTC)

May 10, no idea. --Denniss (talk) 13:44, 22 June 2013 (UTC)

 Done I have renamed these files, because CommonsDelinker was repaired on July 12th. Jack ma (talk) 06:54, 20 July 2013 (UTC)

This user's uploads

This user's uploads have no known flickr source. The flickr source is stated to be 'unknown.' Perhaps you know how to file either a mass DR or an npd tag on them all. This could be a copyright violation but Commons cannot keep them here. Best Regards, --Leoboudv (talk) 06:11, 26 June 2013 (UTC)

Hallo Denniss

Ich kann nicht sehr gut Englisch (genau gesagt garnicht) und habe für zwei meiner Bilder einen Löschantrag gestellt. Das einzige was andere Leute dann übrig haben, ist in dieser Diskussion mir auf Englisch irgend einen unverständlichen kram zu schreiben. Ich möchte einfach das diese Bilder gelöscht werden, aus bestimmten Gründen. Genau das ist es, warum ich zukünftig keine Bilder mehr hier hochladen werde, die Bilder zu löschen, einfach so, ist ja scheinbar unmöglich. Vielleicht kannst du mir ja irgendwie helfen. --JohannesErwinEugen.R

Es tut mir Leid das du unzufrieden mit der Wikipedia bist. Die Bilder können aber nicht einfach so gelöscht werden da Du die unter einer freien Lizenz zur Verfügung gestellt hast und diese nicht einfach zurückgezogen werden kann. Du kannst ja auch nicht Deinem Nachbarn Dein altes Auto schenken und nach einem Monat zurückverlangen weil Du z.B. plötzlich im Streit mit dem Nachbarn bist oder Dir ein Bekannter ein lukratives Angebot für die alte Karre unterbreitet hat. --Denniss (talk) 22:41, 30 June 2013 (UTC)

hmm... klingt verständlich. Aber dennoch finde ich es etwas sonderbar, das man seine hochgeladenen Bilddateien nicht einfach löschen kann. Sollte man bei wikipedia vielleicht mal dran arbeiten. Naja, danke für die Antwort, auch wenn es nichts nützt. --JohannesErwinEugen.R

Reverse

In your closing statement of Commons:Deletion requests/File:Edward Snowden.jpg you believe it is a work by "Guardian/Reuters". Most of us agreed in the DR that was not a work by The Guardian and Reuters was never brought up. We did find versions marked by Praxis films and the VOA. Since we normally accept the methods VOA uses to license their works I see no reason why we shouldn't accept them as a rights holder. We don't know how Praxis and VOA are involved but we do know that VOA have marked it as their public domain work. Would you like to reverse your closure or should I make an undeletion request.--Canoe1967 (talk) 14:35, 1 July 2013 (UTC)

For sure not a VOA work, imags of this series are in multiple use and almost everyone either attributes it to the guardian or one of the large press agencies like Reuters/AP but none to VOA. --Denniss (talk) 21:23, 1 July 2013 (UTC)

RafikiSykes

Hi Denniss. Take a look at W:Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/RafikiSykes. The 2 accounts here, Theveravee and Heronglen look like a match for RafikiSykes according to edits, Cat-a-lot use, etc. Let me know what you think. INeverCry 19:12, 1 July 2013 (UTC)

Update I've blocked both accounts. After running CU, I don't see any reason to doubt the connection. INeverCry 19:49, 1 July 2013 (UTC)

Hi INeverCry and Denniss, I remain concerned that this user is being driven off Commons without being given a clear explanation of the steps needed to become a productive contributor again. In February, after Denniss' block of the RafikiSykes account (which I had thought was intended to be the account this user was going to be limited to), I raised several questions for Denniss which have never been answered, see User_talk:RafikiSykes#Blocked. As for the accounts Theveravee and Heronglen, could you please explain what of those edits was problematic for Commons so that RafikiSykes has the opportunity to improve their behaviour here?

I agree that RafikiSykes would do better to stick to the one account, but in this instance we seem to be importing SPIs from en.wp, rather than making the determination for Commons accounts based on behaviour here on Commons. Thanks --Fæ (talk) 07:25, 2 July 2013 (UTC)

Fæ, rest assured that I would have reported the sockpuppetry here after the case was closed on the English-language WP. Given the the issues with a few members of the admins corps here, I saw no point in starting the case here. RafikiSykes' latest sockpuppets have continued the same pattern of problematic actions that simply create work for other contributors. You and others tried to give them guidance in one at least of their earlier incarnations, so they should know what the problem is by now. Delicious carbuncle (talk) 14:43, 2 July 2013 (UTC)

Are you saying that the porn cabal now runs CU as well? Sweet, we're more powerful than I realised! -mattbuck (Talk) 15:14, 2 July 2013 (UTC)

No, I'm saying that certain admins inevitably involve themselves in certain actions that I make here and attempt to short-circuit them. You are one of those admins, Mattbuck. Delicious carbuncle (talk) 15:45, 2 July 2013 (UTC)

You're making it a self-fulfilling prophecy. -mattbuck (Talk) 15:58, 2 July 2013 (UTC)

The proper action here on the part of RafikiSykes would be to use {{Unblock}} and address the concerns that led to the indef block, or, if the block itself is questioned, to challenge it. I don't see any reaction to the block from him on his talk. What are his views on the issue/s and the block, and what are his intentions going forward? Creating new sock accounts isn't the answer. I've posted on his talk as well. INeverCry 17:03, 2 July 2013 (UTC)

INeverCry, thanks for encouraging them to reply and use the unblock request process there. I suggest this is linked on the talk page of the recently blocked accounts. Note, the gender of RafikiSykes may not be male and they may not be an adult. --Fæ (talk) 17:40, 2 July 2013 (UTC)

Equally, RafikiSykes may be a female and may be extremely aged. Delicious carbuncle (talk) 17:49, 2 July 2013 (UTC)

I've left notes on both sock talkpages. It's concerning to see a scope warning on one and a bunch of DRs on the other. INeverCry 18:13, 2 July 2013 (UTC)

3O since I found you were unwilling to discuss things

I got a third opinion - https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Village_pump/Archive/2013/05#Copyright_law_minutiae -which found my edits (which you reverted) to be reasonable. --Elvey (talk) 08:12, 3 July 2013 (UTC)

You are interpreting things again, as long as there's no clear license statement there will be no change to the template. Feel free to contact NASA and ESA to get them change the license wording. --Denniss (talk) 08:46, 3 July 2013 (UTC)

template:kirkeinfo

Hi, looks like a minor syntax error here, see talk page :) Best regards, Finn Rindahl (talk) 16:19, 7 July 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for fixing that so quickly. There seem, however, to be another problem, and I can't figure it out. There's a lot of images with this temaplate Special:WhatLinksHere/Template:Kirkeinfo&limit=100, I can only see three images in category:Images by Kirkeinfo despite images like File:Ine Marie Eriksen.jpg showing under hiddencats that it is categorized there. Any idea what could be causing this? Finn Rindahl (talk) 17:31, 7 July 2013 (UTC)

It needs a null-edit for every image to get that instantly fixed or wait for the background category update to fix that within some hours/days. --Denniss (talk) 19:56, 7 July 2013 (UTC)

Let's wait then :) Thanks, Finn Rindahl (talk) 20:35, 7 July 2013 (UTC)

DRs on NBA photos

Hi Denniss,

You closed a few DRs recently, keeping some photos by Danny Bollinger (Commons:Deletion requests/File:Darius Johnson-Odom.jpg, Commons:Deletion requests/File:Darius Morris in 2012.jpg, Commons:Deletion requests/File:Darren Collison layup vs Kobe Bryant.jpg, Commons:Deletion requests/File:Dahntay Jones dunk.jpg) Other DRs on similar photos were later deleted (Commons:Deletion requests/File:Jannero Pargo in 2012.jpg, Commons:Deletion requests/File:Rodrigue Beaubois layup over Kevin Seraphin.jpg). This apparent inconsistency has been discussed at Commons:Village pump/Copyright#Inconsistent DR results?.

I'm guessing that the reason you closed your DRs as keep, while the later ones were closed as delete, is that nobody had realised the photos' copyright was held by NBAE (not the photographer) by the time you closed your ones. Would you please have a look at these again and tell me if there's something I'm overlooking?

Thanks, Avenue (talk) 22:34, 7 July 2013 (UTC)

This DR

Do you see any red flags with this DR I filed? Its on a flickr image for a Joe Waguespack article on wikipedia. Only thing is that article on wiki was created by a banned sockpuppet and the flickr image (and another I linked to) seems to come from the same person. If so, then either 1. someone is 'promoting'/spamming J. Waguespack's article on wikipedia (probably Waguespack himself) or 2. the flickr images are copyright violations. It seems that life never gets boring on commons or wikipedia sadly. Best Regards, --Leoboudv (talk) 00:37, 8 July 2013 (UTC)

Edward Snowden

Hi Denniss, the discussion solution was "delete" [5], but the image is still/again there: File:Edward Snowden mirror.jpg + File:Edward Snowden.jpg – the latter one has again been exchanged with another image [6] (different angle, different cropping). Has there been a new decision after the DR solution? --Trofobi (talk) 12:13, 8 July 2013 (UTC)

link replace request ...

Howdy. The request that you initiated seems to have fallen through some cracks. I am not exactly sure of the evidence that you used for the request, so I am cautious about fixing the issue. Anyway, it would be great if you could look and resolve. Thanks.  — billinghurst sDrewth 11:01, 13 July 2013 (UTC)

Please ask those actually moving the file and uploading a (different?) file under the old name. I just moved the replacement orders to CommonsDelinker. --Denniss (talk) 13:48, 13 July 2013 (UTC)

I would hope that the move requests would have been checked, and then have the opportunity to reverse, which is presumably why admins retain that ability. Makes it a little more difficult now.  — billinghurst sDrewth 07:11, 27 July 2013 (UTC)

Is there a problem with single or dual " in these filenames? --Denniss (talk) 10:51, 17 July 2013 (UTC)

Nope, I can handle the ". The thing is that the four ones are one image in four names. --Zhuyifei1999 (talk) 13:03, 17 July 2013 (UTC)

Deleted the wrong ones. Could you please also change the variable TIFF = yes to no (or no value) so the .jpg is not categorized in the TIFF cat? A separate bot run could also be made for this cat to remove all wrongly categorized .jpg images. --Denniss (talk) 14:07, 17 July 2013 (UTC)

Trying. But still made three wrong ones (File:"East side excavation area, showing the two conveyor feeder belts leading to cross-river conveyor, with main-line... - NARA - 293977.jpg, File:"East side excavation area showing the deep crevice on the left, east cofferdam on the right, conveyor to ridge... - NARA - 294264.jpg, and File:"East side excavation area in the foreground showing feeder belts to cross-river conveyor, cofferdam in distance." - NARA - 293963.jpg). --Zhuyifei1999 (talk) 05:22, 18 July 2013 (UTC)

Still four (File:"Emergency dike built on site of Pathfinder dike looking southeast towards barrow pits. Showing sand bags and riprap... - NARA - 294466.jpg, File:"East tower of suspension bridge for sand and gravel conveyor." - NARA - 294024.jpg, File:"East side excavation operations looking south into a deep rock crevice.

Finally fixed it: hasattr(self,'_contents') Permission to run? --Zhuyifei1999 (talk) 07:17, 18 July 2013 (UTC)

I would have no problem if you run your script instead of hazard-bot. Just keep the upload pace slow to spot possible errors. Either way I have to move a lot of files to get proper filenames for the images. --Denniss (talk) 14:18, 18 July 2013 (UTC)

Ok. --Zhuyifei1999 (talk) 10:33, 19 July 2013 (UTC)

I catched up with fixing the duplicate tif/jpg versions with wrong links to each other, there are still about 50-100 tif without jpg left. I hope you upload them next week. Then it's time to ping Fae to cleanup all those images popping up in this cat. Thanks for your help. --Denniss (talk) 12:47, 21 July 2013 (UTC)

Thanks, job should be finished now. Is there an easy way to detect non.tif/.tiff images in this cat ? --Denniss (talk) 16:13, 26 July 2013 (UTC)

I'll try tomorrow, probably with MIME. BTW, I still found some file uploaded by my bot which are latest revisions, and they're likely should be fixed. --Zhuyifei1999 (talk) 16:57, 26 July 2013 (UTC)

Question about restoration of deleted redirect

Hi Denniss. I saw that you restored File:Angelokastro view from tha battlements after user:INeverCry originally deleted it following my deletion request. Out of curiosity, what is the reason for its restoration? Thank you in advance. Dr.K. (talk) 03:03, 18 July 2013 (UTC)

There's no need to delete redirects, especially if the image was present under this old name since 2011. We're not living in a Wiki-only world, several reusers may still link to the old filename. --Denniss (talk) 06:03, 18 July 2013 (UTC)

Changing file name.

Hi,

Why did you change name of File:African Lion.JPG to File:African Lion 2.jpg?

--SuperJew (talk) 18:35, 27 July 2013 (UTC)

because there was a file with identical name, just lowercase .jpg. It was moved to avoid possible confusion with the other image. Feel free to request a rename for a more suitable name. --Denniss (talk) 19:00, 27 July 2013 (UTC)

Deleted image

Hello, i'm a chilian wikipedian. The picture that you deleted was free of copyrigth. It was on Tumblr and it was uploaded on the spanish Wikipedia. The image was called "RodrigoDiaz.png", and I taked it from this image [DeportesIquique2011.jpg]. It's free of copyrigth, I just made a "new version" of that (such as [BogadoIquique.png] and [ArturoSanhueza.png]).

Please get back the picture to Wikimedia Commons. Thanks to you. --Nachof1 (talk) 01:06, 29 July 2013 (UTC)

Need temporary unprotection to upload replacement image

The NASA Insignia at File:NASA logo.svg has incorrect color values. I've prepared a replacement file, based on an official EPS source from NASA, but would need temporary unprotection to upload it. — Quicksilver^@ 19:54, 30 July 2013 (UTC)

File renaming

Please provide criteria from COM:FR when you renaming the file. File should not be renamed if it does not fall under that criterii.--Anatoliy (talk) 00:40, 1 August 2013 (UTC)

PLEASE STOP ABUSING RENAME RIGHTS!--Anatoliy (talk) 00:58, 1 August 2013 (UTC)

What are you talking about? There's no need to specify a rename reason for housekeeping moves (fixing double file extensions). --Denniss (talk) 01:00, 1 August 2013 (UTC)

What rule is it? COM:FR says 'Files should NOT be renamed only because the new name looks a bit better.'--Anatoliy (talk) 01:03, 1 August 2013 (UTC)

Is that 'Correct obvious errors in file names'? Double extensions causes confusion. --Zhuyifei1999 (talk) 01:42, 1 August 2013 (UTC)

Yes. Some stupid "anti-malware" e-Mail filters even scrap the attachment if they encounter double file extensions. -- Rillke^(q?) 14:23, 5 August 2013 (UTC)

I think these fall under current policy. Were I challenged on such a rename, I would use the 'more meaningful' rationale as double extensions are bound to be confusing to the reader/re-user. --Fæ (talk) 14:31, 5 August 2013 (UTC)

User:Jyy889900

hi;

you seem to have taken it upon yourself to UNILATERALLY delete all the contributions of this user Jyy889900 WITHOUT DUE PROCCESS, DISCUSSION, OR PROPER NOTIFICATION.

this is completely inappropriate behavior for an experienced admin.

please do not undertake such actions EVER again.

Lx 121 (talk) 16:34, 4 August 2013 (UTC)

No need for this bureaucracy stuff, lousy quality pics of this kind will be nuked without warning. And I'm not the only admin handling it this way. No problem to keep good quality images but not these "Here's my Dingdong" pics. --Denniss (talk) 16:40, 4 August 2013 (UTC)

so you admit that you are violating policy, you offer no apology for doing so, & state that you intent to continue doing so?

Lx 121 (talk) 17:58, 4 August 2013 (UTC)

No violation of policy, just standard cleanup of BS uploads. --Denniss (talk) 19:48, 4 August 2013 (UTC)

Denniss, are you sure you want to make a stand on this? If the community wishes administrators to delete recently uploaded files based solely on their personal and subjective evaluation of quality, then this would need a change in policy and an unambiguous definition of the boundaries of when this applies. I have no doubt that these images could be easily and fairly trivially deleted using current policy, so it seems odd that you would want to avoid complying with policy when there was no other apparent consideration that required a speedy deletion. --Fæ (talk) 20:04, 4 August 2013 (UTC)

I don't understand why anyone would like to make a stand on the opposite side. Does anyone seriously believe that fighting for low quality penis pictures makes them some kind of anti-censorship-activist? --Dschwen (talk) 15:52, 5 August 2013 (UTC)

No, but I still want the T shirt. Andy Dingley (talk) 15:54, 5 August 2013 (UTC)

@Fae - don't we already have policy codified to support this, and if not, we should address that rather than playing to the peanut gallery. We don't need the bucketloads of knob pics.

Or you could just delete them under URAA. Bulk speedies of in-use images all round, and no-one gives a damn. 8-( Andy Dingley (talk) 15:58, 5 August 2013 (UTC)

Dschwen I did not mention penis pictures, anywhere. In fact as I am not an admin, I cannot even see what has been deleted. I would like administrators to expect to always follow the community agreed process and policies for deletion rather than appearing to making it up as they go along, after they get the deletion tools. The sides I see here are those that follow community agreed policy, and those mavericks that do not represent the community. If you disagree with the policies, then create an RFC and change them. If you want to discuss this case, I suggest you look at the evidence on AN/U and discuss it there. --Fæ (talk) 16:00, 5 August 2013 (UTC)

Excuse me Fae, I have stated my opinion on AN/U and it was not me who took the discussion of the case to this page. It was not unreasonable to expect that you were informed about the content of the deleted pictures as it was mentioned on AN/U by several users. So no need to get snappy here. There is a long way from having an opinion on policies and "creating an RFC and changing them". Perhaps I'm a dreamer, but wouldn't it be nice if a community elected admin would have some trust by the community that elected him? --Dschwen (talk) 16:13, 5 August 2013 (UTC)

Sorry, don't mean to come over as snappy. I agree, the community should have trust in the admin group, and they should be trusted to handle difficult problems which need some flexibility (as mentioned on AN/U). However in the 100 image deletions in the last month that I identified as out of process, most seems to not fall into this "difficult" area but could easily be handled using standard speedy deletions with the associated open notifications. It is this basic question of being seen to follow the norms and policies whenever reasonable, implementing our values of openness and transparency whenever possible, that needs to be responded to. --Fæ (talk) 16:28, 5 August 2013 (UTC)

Denniss, what you do think of the points I raised at Commons:Administrators'_noticeboard/User_problems#COM:PORN.2C_Commons:Deletion_policy.23Out_of_scope_and_COM:CSD? Cheers, russavia (talk) 17:36, 6 August 2013 (UTC)

Image filenames

Hi, you very kindly fixed this silly mistake of mine: "moved page File:1900 Daimler 6hp Sandringham 4575465734.jpg.png to File:1900 Daimler 6hp Sandringham 4575465734.png ‎"
Can I as an ordinary editor on Wikimedia change a file name the same way? It quite often happens that people name a car as part of the file name and itis wrong. For ever after it causes confusion. Here is an example these cars are Jaguar XK 140s yet the file names are wrong. Can I just "move" them to new file names? THanks, Eddaido (talk) 00:45, 6 August 2013 (UTC)

Wiki photos

Hello Denniss! It was very kind of you to send such a supportive message re my rather random collection of images placed in Wiki Commons! I'm glad that some of them have recalled for you scenes from earlier, less hectic and pressurised, aviation days. My sole advantage is having 'been around' for quite a while - the downside is that this happy state cannot continue for too much longer - so I will continue to add images for as long as I can where they seem to 'add value' to Wikipedia articles.

Category:Uruk (und Category:Pergamonmuseum)

Hallo, entschuldige bitte mein schlechtes Deutsch und die mehrere Fehler, die ich hier wahrscheinlich schreiben werde, sehr lange nicht gesprochen bzw. geschrieben... I habe keine Ahnung ob du mir helfen kannst oder nicht: ich habe herausgefunden, daß in Berlin - in diesem Augenblick - eine Sonderausstellung über Uruk stattfindet, sie dauert nur bis 8. September !!!! (hier kannst du weiter darüber lesen: Uruk 5000 Jahre Megacity oder Uruk - 5000 Jahre Megacity im Pergamonmuseum oder Uruk 5000 Years of the Megacity). Es gibt nicht viele Bilder über Uruk und Mesopotamien in Commons, und wäre sehr toll wenn jemanden ein paar Bilder davon ausnehmen könnte, ich wohne aber in Barcelona und kann nicht nach Berlin fahren/fliegen. Ich habe nirgendwo gelesen, daß man die Ausstellung nicht photographieren darf. Es werden einige Objekte ausgestellt, die erst jetzt ausgestellt worden sind, Modelle der Stadt, usw. Diese ist eine einmalige Gelegenheit solche Bilder zu kriegen, weiß aber nicht wer die Uruk-Ausstellung besuchen und die Bilder aufnehmen könnte. Dankesehr! --Luna92 (talk) 12:09, 4 September 2013 (UTC)

Deleting my pictures

Please contact me about supposed "Copyright violations" before deleting my photos. I have a legal right to use them.

You should contact someone first before deleting something they took the time to scan and upload. ----TrixieVanS (talk) 10:50, 5 September 2013 (UTC)

Removing images from see-also

Hi I saw that you had been removing/replacing some non-existant images in "see also" galleries of images uploaded as part of the LSH batch upload. E.g. [7].

Two photos of Kosciuszko statue

Hi Denniss, You tagged two photos of Kosciuszko I uploaded yesterday for missing essential source information. I just supplied the url addresses of the photos along with he author/photographer, 'Ted Bobosh'. (His name and photo can be found below the photoa of the statues on the Flickr page.

Here are the addresses of the two photos in question:

• http://www.flickr.com/photos/frted/5115693974/lightbox/) -- File:Statue of Kosciuszko.jpg
  
• http://www.flickr.com/photos/frted/5115696524/ -- File:Statue of Kosciuszko detail.jpg
  

There is also a link to the copyright info below the photos on these pages:

• http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/2.0/deed.en
  

I am not very familiar with Flickr and any copyright policies involved, only that it was my understanding that it was okay to upload images found here. Please let me know if there are other things needed or any other way I can help. -- Gwillhickers (talk) 21:44, 15 September 2013 (UTC)

•  Comment: I marked the 2 images since the lack of US Freedom of Panorama for modern sculptures does not affect them since the artist died in 1910--and they are not modern sculptures. So, in countries with no Freedom of Panorama for sculptures like most of the Soviet States (except Armenia), the USA, France, Italy and Belgium, there is no problem since the artist has been deceased for at least 70 years and images of their works are now copyright free.

Removal of Soraida Martinez Photo Due to Incorrect Flickr License

Hello, What is the proper flickr license for allowing the artist to allow use of her photo for commercial purposes, but the commercial user has to contact the artist for approval of the usage? The real question is "as a living human being, you wouldn't want to have your photograph used in a way that would defame your character or misrepresent your person." The particular license that I mention above is the proper license that I think should be available to creative people who are providing their creative images for public use, but still want to make sure that the individual who is looking to profit from such use is not doing so at the expense of the original creator's reputation.

Thanks for your help.

--VictorEdgar (talk) 23:11, 19 September 2013 (UTC)

Removal of Soraida Martinez Photo Due to Incorrect Flickr License

Hello, If the Flickr license is not applicable, then what is the appropriate license to use for Wikipedia? I can also use "self" as this is a photograph that the artist directed and owns and gave to me directly for use on her Wikipedia article. The photo is also available online in press releases for the artist's latest exhibition and the artist's exhibit page (www.soraida.com/exhibit.htm). Do you see my point about a creative person having some control over how their images are used for commercial purposes. I think that's a basic right to be able to stop individuals from using your creations in ways that are contrary to your beliefs and character. I see these types of infringements all the time...in particular, with music appropriated for political campaigns, without the musician's knowledge or approval.

Thanks for your help in getting this photo approved.

I also ran those images in Google Search by Image and TinEye to make sure they're not laundered, in which the search engines showed that there are not similar images.

I want to know why do you erase a picture of this band that i did myself. Now wiki said to me that you erase it becouse i violate the copyright terms... (how do i violate myself? LOL). Is it wrong if i upload it directly to wiki commons?

Thank you

btw, i see that you erase the old one too. the one that got this free use, but not available for wiki. anyway, this is mine, so, let me know what can i do to use the good one (the last, "at joy eslava one")

Rotatebot has stopped working

Hi Dennis, there seems to be a new bug, Rotatebot hasn't rotated anything since at least 26 hours, see also User talk:Rotatebot#Rotatebot stopped working. Could you fix it? Thanks a lot, --Edelseider (talk) 13:43, 17 October 2013 (UTC)

Deletion of my uploads

Hello. You recently deleted two of my uploads: File:Chaplin Limelight promo image.jpg (and its cropped version, File:Chaplin Limelight promo crop.jpg), and File:William Powell portrait.jpg. As far as I can tell, this was done without any warning or proper deletion request. I wasn't given any chance to defend them. I am quite sure that with both of these images, I had provided links to the copyright renewal records which showed that these images never had their copyright renewed. May I ask why they were deleted? And please next time, give me warning - as you have done about the Dirk Bogarde image, which is a far more reasonable candidate for deletion; I can understand your concern there...with the other two images, I am 100% sure they're out of copyright. --Lobo512 (talk) 15:35, 17 October 2013 (UTC)

Actually, I don't think I did provide renewal records for the Powell image (I can't know for sure, because there's no way for me to look at the file, what with it being deleted so hastily...) but that's because I looked carefully at the scan (front and back) and all it said was something like "attribution would be appreciated". There was no clear copyright notice, which was required at the time of publication. --Lobo512 (talk) 15:39, 17 October 2013 (UTC)

So you deleted my uploads without any warning, and now you're ignoring me. Not impressed. In the absence of any comments about this, I have re-added the images, here, here, and here, although I'm annoyed I had to take the time to do this again. If you still believe there are problems, please file a proper deletion request this time. --Lobo512 (talk) 10:49, 19 October 2013 (UTC)

You uploaded them claiming a legal exception in US law but you failed to provide any proof that these images fall under this exception. One image bears a clear copyright notice, the other image is marked as ARR at the source. Images without proof are to be handled as derivative work or copyright violation and will be deleted on sight. --Denniss (talk) 11:15, 19 October 2013 (UTC)

Have you even read my summaries? For the Chaplin image I included a search of copyright renewal records, which show that no Limelight images had their copyright renewed. As for the Powell image, where exactly is the copyright notice? All it says is "Kindly credit" - that does NOT constitute copyright (which, again, I have made clear in the file description). And even if it was copyrighted, I'm am 100% sure that I can search the renewal records of the relevant year and it won't have been renewed (none of these images were, I've done searches for dozens of images and it just never happened.) --Lobo512 (talk) 11:35, 19 October 2013 (UTC)

Well you've obviously conceded on this issue, but I guess you have too much pride to apologise. I'm very unimpressed with your conduct over this whole thing, especially for an admin. May I suggest that in the future you:

1. Give users a chance to defend their uploads before hastily deleting them
2. Not ignore people when they write on your talk page
3. Fully read the descriptions of uploads, especially when the user has gone to the effort of researching and quoting copyright law and copyright renewal records, before slapping "permission" tags on
4. Learn what constitutes pre-1978 copyright (cannot believe an admin didn't know this...)
5. Apologise when you make a mistake

Bye. --Lobo512 (talk) 19:57, 20 October 2013 (UTC)

The bridge in Podvelka

Hi, perhaps you would want to comment at Commons:Undeletion requests/Current_requests#Commons:Deletion requests/File:Odprtje mostu v Podvelki 1960.jpg. Regards, --Eleassar ^(t/p) 18:46, 17 October 2013 (UTC)

Railroad files

Hi, Dennis,

Was working on railroad files recently. There are two with wrong licenses as they're not US origin.

• File:TWE Bahnhof Gütersloh 1900 Fahrplan 1903.jpg
• File:Eröffnung Teutoburger Wald-Eisenbahn (TWE) in Iburg 18 Juli 1901.jpg

I think they are OK with one of the "old" EU licenses but am not sure which apply. The uploader has some others which have no source information. Have fixed everything I can, I think, but some of the photos look like they came from a eBay seller who has a lot of railroad photos, but no source information about them. Two look like they're repros. Should I put the rest up for DR? Thanks, We hope (talk) 21:34, 17 October 2013 (UTC)

File:Fairphone Prototype.jpg; Zweiter Anlauf

Hallo Deniss, ich hatte dich ja bereits weiter oben angesprochen, da gab es aber leider keine Antwort (mehr). Nocheinmal: Das Bild wurde ja jetzt gelöscht. Wieso? Sämtliche Informationen findet man hier. JoeJoeJoe93 (talk) 08:59, 22 October 2013 (UTC)

Ist Dir die nichtkommerzielle Lizenzeinschränkung bei Flickr entgangen? Diese ist für Bilder auf Commons nicht erlaubt. Wenn Du eine andere offizielle Quelle kennst, die ohne die Einschränkung auskommt (und dies auch klar darstellt), können wir so ein Bild nutzen. --Denniss (talk) 09:20, 22 October 2013 (UTC)

Könntest du mir das bitte noch einmal erklären? Habe dieses Nichtkommerzielle und Kommerzielle Nutzungsrecht noch nie verstanden. Dieses Bild steht unter einer Nichtkommerziellen Lizenz, oder nicht? So steht es zumindest unter dem Bild. --JoeJoeJoe93 (talk) 07:36, 24 October 2013 (UTC)

Sieh COM:L, für potentielle Nachnutzer muß eine kommerzielle Nutzung möglich sein. --Denniss (talk) 07:46, 24 October 2013 (UTC)

Brussels

Why did you revert the File:Brussels 1837.jpeg from my version to the version as of previous? In the previous version the North is roughly to the right. But in my version the North was to the up and that is more right than in the previos variant. My version of map disposition is in more close resemblance to the reality.

File:Douglas Devananda 2.jpg

Hello. You deleted the above file, which was uploaded by me, on 7 October because the Flickr user is on a blacklist. I have discussed the user on Commons:Questionable Flickr images where another user believes that image was fine to be included on Commons. Could you re-consider your decision to delete the file?--Obi2canibe (talk) 14:29, 27 October 2013 (UTC)

Are you going to respond?--Obi2canibe (talk) 11:09, 2 November 2013 (UTC)

Thank you for the DR notice

Thank you for the heads up by email about the DR, as I'm not on much nowadays. BrokenSphere (Talk) 16:59, 6 November 2013 (UTC)
