Cyrillc letters

[edit]

Do you think the basic Cyrillic letters should be renamed from the transcriptions to their names as well? 1234qwer1234qwer4 (talk) 18:40, 23 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

As far as I understand the policy, latin transcriptions are preferred (subject to terms and conditions...).
As far as I am concerned, I just wanted some consistent naming scheme.--Chewzy (talk) 19:39, 23 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Not sure I understand your question, though.--Chewzy (talk) 22:58, 23 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I'm going for latin transcriptions of the most common names. Does that make cents..?--Chewzy (talk) 23:01, 23 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Of the names, that makes sense. I noticed you have already done things like Be, Ve, Ge. I was talking about that category names. 1234qwer1234qwer4 (talk) 10:07, 24 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for uploading File:Ee Park Avenue.svg. I notice that the file page either doesn't contain enough information about the license or it contains contradictory information about the license, so the copyright status is unclear.

If you created this file yourself, then you must provide a valid copyright tag. For example, you can tag it with {{self|GFDL|cc-by-sa-all}} to release it under the multi-license GFDL plus Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike All-version license or you can tag it with {{PD-self}} to release it into the public domain. (See Commons:Copyright tags for the full list of license tags that you can use.)

If you did not create the file yourself or if it is a derivative of another work that is possibly subject to copyright protection, then you must specify where you found it (e.g. usually a link to the web page where you got it), you must provide proof that it has a license that is acceptable for Commons (e.g. usually a link to the terms of use for content from that page), and you must add an appropriate license tag. If you did not create the file yourself and the specific source and license information is not available on the web, you must obtain permission through the VRT system and follow the procedure described there.

Note that any unsourced or improperly licensed files will be deleted one week after they have been marked as lacking proper information, as described in criteria for deletion. If you have uploaded other files, please confirm that you have provided the proper information for those files, too. If you have any questions about licenses please ask at Commons:Village pump/Copyright or see our help pages. Thank you.

Thanks for uploading File:UCN learning center.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:UCN learning center.jpg]]) and the above demanded information in your request.

File:Estancia at Capitol Commons.jpg 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!

We need your feedback!

[edit]

Hello. Apologies if this message is not in your native language: please feel free to respond in the language of your choice. Thank you!

I am writing to you because we are looking for feedback for a new Wikimedia Foundation project, Structured Data Across Wikimedia (SDAW). SDAW is a grant-funded programme that will explore ways to structure content on wikitext pages in a way that will be machine-recognizable and -relatable, in order to make reading, editing, and searching easier and more accessible across projects and on the Internet. We are now focusing on designing and building image suggestion features for experienced users.

We have some questions to ask you about your experience with uploading images here on Wikimedia Commons and then adding them to Wikipedia. You can answer these questions on a specific feedback page on Mediawiki, where we will gather feedback. As I said, these questions are in English, but your answers do not need to be in English! You can also answer in your own language, if you feel more comfortable.

Once the collecting of feedback will be over, we will sum it up and share with you a summary, along with updated mocks that will incorporate your inputs.

Also, if you want to keep in touch with us or you want to know more about the project, you can subscribe to our newsletter.

Hope to hear from you soon! -- Sannita (WMF) (talk to me!) 09:56, 2 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Edit Summary

[edit]

When editing a page on Commons there is a small field labeled "Edit Summary" or "Summary" under the main edit-box. It looks like this:

The text written here will appear on the Recent changes page, in the page revision history, on the diff page, and in the watchlists of users who are watching that article. See m:Help:Edit summary for full information on this feature.

Filling in the Edit Summary field greatly helps your fellow contributors in understanding what you changed, so please always fill in the Edit Summary field. If you are adding a section, please do not just keep the previous section's name in the Edit Summary field - please fill in your new section's name instead. Thank you.  — 🇺🇦Jeff G. please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 00:00, 10 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Warning

[edit]

If you keep messing with the licenses of others (making them freer than intended), as complained about in special:diff/829134151 (currently COM:VPC#Mass-changes of licences for typeface samples?), I will report you.   — 🇺🇦Jeff G. please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 00:02, 10 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

These were clearly based on bogus copyright claims and are therefore just misleading our users. Go report that too.--Chewzy (talk) 00:17, 10 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
If you need typeface samples that complies with your licence requirements, may I recommend that you get the fonts you need, create your own samples from them, with some modifications to distinguish your samples from the original, then upload your samples as a new file, with the licence that you want. --Minoa (talk) 01:37, 10 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
That’s not how it works in this case: There is no basis for claiming any copyright protection for the files I've touched. So, these copyright tags are just false and misleading our users.--Chewzy (talk) 13:21, 10 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@King of Hearts disagreed with you in special:diff/829107545.   — 🇺🇦Jeff G. please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 13:43, 10 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Again: He doesn’t address the fact that there is no basis for claiming copyright for these files.--Chewzy (talk) 01:39, 11 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
