File:Brednäbbad simsnäppa-(Phalaropus-fulicarius) Ystad-2009.ogg

Hi, you removed this file and Commons:Delinker removed the references to it. I guess it was a bit too speedy because CommonsDelinker hadn't processed the file move yet. Could you undo it? bdijkstra (overleg) 13:38, 21 December 2023 (UTC)

It seems Commons:Delinker processed the file. It can take some time, but it will do the job once it is scheduled. Yann (talk) 14:48, 21 December 2023 (UTC)

The problem is that CommonsDelinker processed the removal before it could process the move. bdijkstra (overleg) 10:39, 22 December 2023 (UTC)

Please Yann, can you undo the move or not? And if not, any advice? bdijkstra (overleg) 16:03, 28 January 2024 (UTC)

@Bdijkstra: Commons:Delinker did work, see File:Brednäbbad simsnäppa - Red phalarope - (Phalaropus fulicarius) - Ystad-2009.ogv. Yann (talk) 16:05, 28 January 2024 (UTC)

Yes on some wikis it worked, but at least on nlwiki and svwiki the removal of the redirect got processed before the move, see here, here and here. bdijkstra (overleg) 16:16, 28 January 2024 (UTC)

Is there an easy way to find out where else it went wrong? bdijkstra (overleg) 17:09, 30 January 2024 (UTC)

@Bdijkstra: From this, you can see that CommonsDelinker remove it only 2 times. Yann (talk) 17:26, 30 January 2024 (UTC)

I meant: is there an easy way to find out on which other wikis it went wrong? bdijkstra (overleg) 17:29, 30 January 2024 (UTC)

@Bdijkstra: Apart from checking CommonsDelinker's log, I don't know any. Yann (talk) 17:40, 30 January 2024 (UTC)

Question about File:Conspiracy (1930) by Christy Cabanne.webm

Is there any way we can remove the first twenty seconds of this file and the channel logo of the YouTube uploader in the top right of this file. I presume both of those are copyrighted and unneeded. (Oinkers42) (talk) 03:24, 24 January 2024 (UTC)

@(Oinkers42): I replaced the MOTD with a higher resolution version without watermark: File:Conspiracy (1930) by Christy Cabanne HD.webm. Yann (talk) 10:09, 24 January 2024 (UTC)

Thank you. (Oinkers42) (talk) 15:44, 24 January 2024 (UTC)

Protection request

Hello.

Can you protect File:Brown rat distribution.png and keep it as it was originally uploaded, so that only administrators can upload and edit it? A user puts the unsubstantiated arguement that the entire Canadian province of Alberta, has no brown rats whatsoever and puts the arbitrary provincial boundaries as the distribution for the common brown rat, considering how baseless it seems that they stop at the provincial borders. The province has a presence of brown rats which are detected, which does not mean that it is totally devoid of brown rats.

Yours sincerely, Multituberculata (talk) 18:43, 26 January 2024 (UTC)

 Done These accounts are probably socks, so could you please request a request for checkuser? Thanks, Yann (talk) 18:48, 26 January 2024 (UTC)

Thank you very much. Multituberculata (talk) 01:34, 27 January 2024 (UTC)

Lau kwok kin hong kong fencer picture copyright?

this picture uploaded to lau kwok kin profile "03Jan20_4-182.jpg" is being deleted becuase of copy right issues But this picture is owned by me , why it is a copyright violation? Fatcataegi (talk) 17:03, 30 January 2024 (UTC)

@Fatcataegi: I restored it, and created a DR instead: Commons:Deletion requests/File:03Jan20 4-182.jpg. You can comment there. Yann (talk) 17:21, 30 January 2024 (UTC)

Missing files

Hi Yann, something went wrong: The pages

File:Algol, Tragödie der Macht (1920) by Hans Werckmeister.webm and

File:The Clown (1917) by A. W. Sandberg.webm

shew up on my User:Achim55/File pages without files. Best, Achim55 (talk) 20:00, 30 January 2024 (UTC)

@Achim55: Hi,

Thanks for your message. The files are in my computer, but they are huge (>2.5 GB), and my connection is not fast enough to upload them currently. Since Google blocks V2C, it is very difficult to upload big videos. Yann (talk) 21:07, 30 January 2024 (UTC)

Check image violation at File:Emblem of West Bengal1.png. Thank you. Agent 007 (talk) 15:15, 1 February 2024 (UTC)

File:Emblem of West Bengal1.png

The File may not be free, but it can be used on english Wiki, as a logo. can you pleas recrate it there, under en:Template:Non-free logo? איש עיטי (talk) 18:11, 1 February 2024 (UTC)

Крым

Приветствую! Восстановите, пожалуйста, все удалённые сегодня категории Крыма, которые участник расформировал без обсуждения. Речь идёт о категория типа Category:Monuments and memorials in Saky Raion и прочих. Подробнее см Commons:Форум#Крым. Заранее спасибо. Mitte27 (talk) 19:49, 1 February 2024 (UTC)

Hi Yann, I had also deleted a number of these categories, which seem to have been wrongly speedy-tagged by another user (see User talk:Túrelio#Крым). I am in the process of undeleting those, which I had deleted. If you don't mind, I can also undelete those, which you had deleted. --Túrelio (talk) 09:22, 2 February 2024 (UTC)

Really deleted files

Hello Yann. Regarding a file I wrote up to be undeleted, I got in response: "no file there left to undelete, just file description pages (in those early days, the files actually _were_ deleted)" When was this technical thing changed, do you know when it was made on Wikimedia so that files weren't fully deleted, if you get me? Grey ghost (talk) 19:00, 2 February 2024 (UTC)

@Grey ghost: What's the file name? Yann (talk) 19:07, 2 February 2024 (UTC)

File:Derain CharingCrossBridge.png deleted in May 2006, so the technical thing was changed between then and now, that's what I gather. Grey ghost (talk) 19:23, 2 February 2024 (UTC)

@Grey ghost: That's probably a bug. But we also have File:Charing Cross Bridge by Andre Derain (52259664204).jpg, which will be in the public domain next year. See Category:Undelete in 2025 and Category:André Derain. I will fill up a bug report nevertheless: phab:T356535. Yann (talk) 19:33, 2 February 2024 (UTC)

Not a bug. Before June 2006 or so, deleted files were not kept on the server for later undeletion, that was new in MediaWiki 1.7. See my user talk page. Regards --Rosenzweig τ 21:26, 2 February 2024 (UTC)

Mercantile in Widtsoe, Utah. 1936 photo by Dorothea Lange

Thanks for all of your good work on this classic photo. My, it's come a long way from my 50kb starter back in 2021!

It's a haunting photo. I happened to be reading a biography of Lange at the time, and starting looking into her FSA photos. She was a remarkable photographer.

Best, Pete Tillman (talk) 06:15, 3 February 2024 (UTC)

@Tillman: Hi,

Thanks for your message. I am planning to propose more pictures from her, and other photographers working for the FSA. Yann (talk) 17:56, 3 February 2024 (UTC)

Close-up

Bonjour Yann ! Je suis surpris par le bandeau de licence de ce film. Dans la mesure où Abbas Kiarostami est mort en 2016, il me semble que le film ne répond à aucun des deux critères listés, et n'est donc pas dans le domaine public. J'ai manqué quelque chose ? Gyrostat (talk) 15:53, 3 February 2024 (UTC)

Please read the license. In Iran, films get into the public domain 30 years after publication. Yann (talk) 17:54, 3 February 2024 (UTC)

Question about tag removal

Yann, this recent edit [1] removed a "de minimis" tag that had been on this file, since you closed the Deletion Request in 2017. Is this de minimis tag no longer needed? Thanks, -- Ooligan (talk) 18:31, 3 February 2024 (UTC)

OK, I reverted that. Yann (talk) 19:20, 3 February 2024 (UTC)

Storm April 14th, quote describing the storm from a letter May 6. The unabridged letter makes it clear. Adam Cuerden (talk) 04:05, 5 February 2024 (UTC)

Oh, just noticed you had thanked me for the other edit. Ah, well. Just wanted to make sure you saw it, because ping... sometimes fails for very obscure reasons. Adam Cuerden (talk) 13:22, 5 February 2024 (UTC)

Protection request

Hello.

Can you temporarily protect File:Dubbing films in Europe.png with its original coloring, so that only administrators can upload and edit it?

The attempted new coloring in File:Dubbing films in Europe.png, does not correspond to the original colors with their legends given in 19 languages and corresponding color bars in the text, and in the 29 Wikipedia articles which use them, including the legends with the various translations and the color bars of this file.

No explanations have been given what the additional colors are supposed to represent, and cruciallly, no legends with the new color bars have been added either. The change clashes with the legends and color bars of this file and in the Wikipedia articles which use them. It just messes things up, when no legends are added or changed, including the translations, when the colors are changed, and no sources are added.

Yours sincerely, Multituberculata (talk) 14:47, 6 February 2024 (UTC)

 Done Protected for 2 weeks. I warned users. Yann (talk) 19:34, 6 February 2024 (UTC)

Thank you very much. Multituberculata (talk) 20:29, 6 February 2024 (UTC)

Commons Volunteers of India

Hello, hope you're doing well. I'm curious if there's a forum where contributors to Wikimedia Commons in India can gather to discuss topics. While I've attended several meetups and workshops organized by CIS-A2K, they tend to focus more on Wikipedia or Wikisource-related matters. --iMahesh (talk) 10:54, 8 February 2024 (UTC)

@IM3847: Not that I know, but feel free to start one. Yann (talk) 11:05, 8 February 2024 (UTC)

I can only find very few active contributors. Do you know any? --iMahesh (talk) 11:26, 8 February 2024 (UTC)
