Imagens

Estão pondo minhas fotos para eliminação. Foto da igreja antiga de Brumado, Praça Armindo Azevedo em Brumado, e outras fotos antigas, porém as imagens são livre para uso em qualquer página, ou trabalho, desde que cite a fonte e a fonte já está citada, mas eu não sei como tirar aquele formulário onde diz :"Eu, titular de tal imagem e blablablá...."; quando vou carregar as imagen não dá uma opção de mostrar de imediato onde está a permissão e quando procuro uma opção dizendo que está em algum sítio da net, vem um monte de porém muito complicado. As imagens são permitidas.

Thanks for: Paraty categorization

Darwin thank you so much for your hard work on categorizing architecture in Paraty. I'm learning so much from that. I'm hoping to do the same for photographs taken in Cachoeira, Bahia and other municipalities I've visited in the Recôncavo. Take care. Prburley (talk)

Diretos autorais

Olá. Gostaria de saber o que tenho que fazer para solicitar os diretos autorais de uma imagem ao detentor dos direitos. Sei que tenho que enviar por email e já tenho o email aqui, mas o que devo enviar por email? Um print da pessoa autorizando usar a imagem serve?--Aquila Leite^Mendes

Wrong verb tense??

AFAIK we categorise by relevance to topics, not by verb tenses. A subject that is hanging is, by necessity, in the state of being suspended by the neck. --Pitke (talk) 20:02, 4 November 2021 (UTC)

@Pitke: I was not sure when I categorized it that way (though that category tree was confusing itself, ISTR deriving from a song (?)). Please fix it as you feel is appropriated, if possible.-- Darwin ^Ahoy! 17:59, 6 November 2021 (UTC)

Hi DarwIn, where is that floating rope you categorized? There is neither a body of water on which a rope can float nor anything that looks like a buoy. -- Ies (talk) 12:10, 20 November 2021 (UTC)

@Ies: It's not in the scene itself, but used as bordure decoration. It's something that looks exactly like this.-- Darwin ^Ahoy! 20:06, 20 November 2021 (UTC)

You're right. I examined the scene only and overlooked that quite big thing in the bordure decoration. Greetings, -- Ies (talk) 06:22, 21 November 2021 (UTC)

Masterclasses GL

Dear DarwIn, good evening! I think we got email today from you about these two files: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Utah_Music_Teachers_Conference_2021_-_Giorgi_Latso%27s_Masterclass.jpg https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Masterclasses_with_Giorgi_Latso_and_Anna_Latso_at_Utah_Music_Teachers_Association_Conference_2021.jpg

Situation is such that Dr. Christian Bohnenstengelis the photographer of those two photos. He today sent us following email: Hi Giorgi, Please, post away... Thank you (and Anna) for wonderful classes and performances! Happy Thanksgiving to both of you! Christian "I, Christian Bohnenstengel, give Giorgio Latso permission to use photos taken by me during the UMTA State Conference at Thanksgiving Point on November 6, without payment or other consideration."

Please let me know if you need his email or want him to send you directly email confirming his granting of copyright permission and I will be happy to send you email. Many thanks! Asuas (talk) 02:32, 22 November 2021 (UTC)

@Asuas: Hello! Dr. Christian Bohnenstengel is needs to send the permission directly to OTRS (preferably with the ticket number in the subject, so that it can be dealt with faster), and the permission needs to be similar to the text generated by the OTRS license generator (I think the link is in the email). You can generate the text and prepare everything for him, but then he needs to send it to us himself. Please tell me if you need further clarifications on the process. Thanks, -- Darwin ^Ahoy! 02:40, 22 November 2021 (UTC)

@DarwIn: Thank you so much Darwin. I will forward your request to him this morning. All best, Asuas (talk) 16:39, 22 November 2021 (UTC)

@DarwIn: Hi again :) I learned from Dr. Christian Bohnenstengel that he did send email to you with contest of granting permissions for both files. However, this file has not been reviewed yet? https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Utah_Music_Teachers_Conference_2021_-_Giorgi_Latso%27s_Masterclass.jpg Please let me know if he needs to resend the email. Thank you! All best Asuas (talk) 02:11, 23 November 2021 (UTC)

Wiki Science Competition 2021 has started

Dear uploader of European Science Photo Competition 2015 and Wiki Science Competition 2017 and Wiki Science Competition 2019, we would like to remind you that Wiki Science Competition 2021 has started in the whole world. It is now completed in Russia (active in May), but it's still open in almost all the other countries.

If you want to take part in WSC2021, please consult this page. Only some national categories are associated to competitions with local prizes.

If you are an expert user, we remind you that images uploaded within the deadline can be included in any case in their national category even if not uploaded with the main interface.

Please keep in mind that there is a new category this year, that is "astronomy".

If you already took part in a country that has completed its upload phase, please consider improving the description in English of your files (click on the edit button), since such description is what the international jury will use to evaluate them. World finalists will be finalized after March 2020.

Sorry for bothering you and have a nice wiki.

Propostas de imagens para eliminar

Olá, DarwIn! Tu encerrou Commons:Deletion requests/File:S.C. Rio Grande.png e chegou a editar File:FFC crest.svg, mas não removeu a marcação dessa imagem. Aproveito para pedir, se puder, a finalização de Commons:Deletion requests/File:AD Bahia de Feira - BA.svg e Commons:Deletion requests/File:EC Bahia - BA.svg. Saudações, --Luan (talk) 14:44, 3 December 2021 (UTC)

@Luan: Verdade, esqueci esse, ainda bem que notou - obrigado. Bem me pareceu que tinha falhado um, mas já era tarde à hora que fechei isso, e acabou por passar. Não fechei essa segunda, para não assumir sozinho a manutenção, mas coloquei um Vk, o que deve facilitar a vida do próximo admin que olhar para aquilo. Esses símbolos assim geralmente são PD por textlogo, e mesmo alguns dos complexos acabam sendo PD-Old, pois simplesmente reciclam mmodelos mais antigos (muito comum no caso de brasões com formato mais sofisticado).-- Darwin ^Ahoy! 16:17, 3 December 2021 (UTC)

Me parece que o do EC Bahia não seja um desses casos, mas posso estar enganado. Mas entendi o que fez oom os demais. Saudações, --Luan (talk) 15:26, 5 December 2021 (UTC)

@Luan: Concordo, não é mesmo um caso como os outros. Para permanecer no Commons teria de se provar que o desenho é domínio público. Fez bem em nomear para eliminação, mas esses casos sempre devem ir por nomeação e nunca por speedy, pois não são óbvios (existe a possibilidade de ser PD-Old, por exemplo, pode ter sido carregado pelo próprio clube, que pode ter os direitos, etc.).-- Darwin ^Ahoy! 16:02, 5 December 2021 (UTC)

File:Roy Hargrove Legacy.jpg

You added a VRT tag, but there is still no licence tag on the image. I just wanted to clarify because someone likely working with the estate keeps trying to add this image to the English Wikipedia article. Is there just a pending communication, or are we good-to-go on keeping the image? IronGargoyle (talk) 19:36, 4 December 2021 (UTC)

@IronGargoyle: You are absolutely right - I generally check the compatibility between the license on the file and the relicensing on VRTS, but for some reason missed it on this case. Yes, the copyright and relicensing are legitimate, though they have to chose a free license. I've sent them that information and changed the VRTS tag to pending, accordingly. Thank you very much for noticing it and warning me.-- Darwin ^Ahoy! 23:24, 4 December 2021 (UTC)
