Images from Google Arts & Culture

Hello Yann, hope you're doing well. I was browsing through the Category:Paintings by Amrita Sher-Gil wherein I saw some of your uploads. Wanted to know if those images were provided by Google A&C directly/extracted from their website in some way or clicked by you itself? Asking this because I'm planning to add more of her paintings, the images of which I have clicked on the museum visit. Although, not all of them are up to the mark. So some support from A&C website could be useful. Let me know about it. Regards - DesiBoy101 (talk) 19:44, 4 December 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

@DesiBoy101: Yes, I got them from the URLs mentioned. No help from Google. Yann (talk) 20:35, 4 December 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

So I believe it was possible to download images directly from their website back then because the settings seems to be changed now. Or is there a way around it?

Also, while uploading self-clicked images of PD paintings, is there a need to provide any additional information or just adding the relevant PD license is fine? DesiBoy101 (talk) 03:17, 5 December 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

They use a software called Zoom, so you need a gadget called Dezoomify. I use it as an extension to Chrome. If the painting is in the public domain, just use {{PD-Art}} with the appropriate license. Yann (talk) 12:32, 5 December 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Thanks for sharing this tool. It works like a charm! Always amazed to see such wonderful tools being developed and put out for the community to use.

Another question - have you anytime tried bulk/batch update of SDC? I've already checked out Commons:Structured data. Wanted to know if you've got any go-to tools that work best. My purpose mostly revolves around images from GLAMs. Let me know - DesiBoy101 (talk) 13:29, 6 December 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Wrong deleting

Dear Yann, you have deleted File:Logo da Galiña Azul (Ourense).jpg, but this logo is in the façade of the building and the photo was taken in the street, then in a public domain. Please restore it. Best regards. --Tfeliz (talk) 23:27, 4 December 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Permission not sufficient

Hello. I am the VRT agent handling permission for File:Skeeter Reece carrying Albert Alter juggling while on unicycle.jpg and File:Skeeter Reece on Unicycle.jpg in VRT ticket 2022120610000906. Would you please clarify why you tagged those images as having insufficient permission? The ticket has a permission declaration explicitly for the first image, and a later message in the same ticket clearly stated that the declaration applies to both images. If the images had not been deleted first, I would have tagged them differently and all would be well. ~Anachronist (talk) 23:24, 9 December 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

@Anachronist: Hi, I didn't "tagged those images as having insufficient permission". I only added the ticket number, waiting for its validation, i.e. [1] and [2]. I am not a VRT agent, so I can't validate the tickets myself. Yann (talk) 10:02, 10 December 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

I see. Thanks for the explanation. I thought my initial undeletion request was sufficient, but now I understand that you didn't want to place the {{Permission ticket}} tag because you couldn't verify it. I thought perhaps there was a different problem of which I was unaware.

As the VRT agent handling the ticket, I changed the tag in each image. ~Anachronist (talk) 20:08, 10 December 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Question from the CPUG Board

Dear user group member,

I'm writing you to today on behalf of the board of the Commons Photographers User Group. The past year has been a busy one for us. In 2022, we've had more activities than ever before in the history of our group and you'll find an overview on our group's page.

With that being said, 2022 was also a year of learning for the current board members. Most of us hadn't been involved in running the Photographers User Group and we spent quite some time on getting used to our new roles. We all feel it was a steep learning curve.

That's why, at our last board meeting, we decided to ask our members whether they'd be ok with us serving for another year. Extending our board duties to the end of 2023 would allow us to continue the work we've started this year, and to benefit from the knowledge we've built over the past twelve months.

However, in the end, it's up to you and the other members of our group to decide whether such an extension of our board term should be granted. I invite you to voice your opinion on this page:

Commons:Commons Photographers User Group/Board Elections 2022

We'll gather feedback until December 27, and we'll keep you in the loop about the outcomes of this process.

Thanks so much for your ongoing support of our group. I wish you, your family, and your friends all the best.

Why?

@Yann, you deleted almost all of my screenshots because they're not {{PD-ineligible}} but you kept this file whence I learned about the usage of ineligible template. Can you talk about the reason of such decide? Thanks. Wiki6421 (talk) 06:12, 12 December 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

@Wiki6421: File:Ecosia 70,000,000 trees planted by users (06 D. 10 M. 2019 A.).png contains only simple text, that's why it is ineligible for copyright. The other two don't. Beside, we only accept screenshots if there are notable, e.g. related to an article on Wikipedia. Yann (talk) 09:11, 12 December 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Is it a good idea to put so much text?😂

i'm concerned whether this would "break" the main page. RZuo (talk) 06:16, 12 December 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

@RZuo: Hmm, I didn't think about that. The text could be reduced if really necessary, but best would do create a mock-up of the main page with the MOTD to check before. Yann (talk) 09:22, 12 December 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Deletion of a picture

Hello there friend. A few weeks ago, I nominated a file for deletion, the one called "Filhos de Gustave Rumbelsperger". Here's the link for it: File:Filhos_de_Gustave_Rumbelsperger.jpg.

Those two photos belong to my personal archive. They belonged to my family for many years. I added them to the wikipedia when I was around 15 years old, when I was creating the wikipedia page about my great-great-grandfather Gustave Rumbelsperger, which you can find in this link https://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gustave_Rumbelsperger.

At the time, I thought the wikipedia was just a mere archive that you could delete things at your heart content. By that time, I didn't understood english as now so I didn't actually read any of the wikipedia rules, hence you'll see in my history many mistakes done, which I wouldn't have done if I had better knowledge of the language and of the rules. And I know you were responsible for keeping the file in the wiki commons. I would politely ask you to reconsider that decision. Please, those pictures are from private collection of family history and I wouldn't like the anymore to be there. They are different from Gustave Rumbelsperger photo, since that was published in a public newspaper in the past. But the archive "Filhos de Gustave Rumbelsperger", they weren't published anywhere except here in the wikimedia by myself during a misunderstood action, where I just wanted to write an article about my ancestor. When I made that, I thought I could delete the picture any time I wanted. I didn't even bothered to fill all the info about it, like giving myself the proper credit for the photo, describing about how it's from my personal archives, you probably have seen how it's a really incomplete archive with very little description. So, again, I politely ask you to reconsider that decision and actually delete that file from the wikimedia commons. Please, imagine if you posted a photo of a relative of yours by accident on the internet and you were prohibited of deleting it, of fixing your mistake! You probably would be upset, wouldn't you? Looking foward to your reply, thanks a lot for your attention. Rumbelsperger (talk) 05:52, 15 December 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

@Rumbelsperger: It is currently in use in Portuguese Wikipedia, so it can't be deleted now. If you convince people there to remove, then it may be deleted. Thanks, Yann (talk) 10:58, 15 December 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

File:Ferdinand-Philippe, duc d’Orléans, vers 1840.jpg

I want some advice on what to do about this file. The painting is public domain, the photograph is most definitely not. Should I file another DR, wait for it to be speedy deleted or should I just put a copyvio tag on it? Abzeronow (talk) 19:03, 15 December 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

@Abzeronow: Yes, the frame should be cropped out, and the new image imported over this one. Thanks, Yann (talk) 19:50, 15 December 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

OK, overwrote with a new version. Abzeronow (talk) 20:09, 15 December 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

sockpuppet template

Yann I have checked from each of the 4 links in the sockpuppet template you added to create my user page that there is no evidence or logs of my being a sockpuppet of the person you named. Additionally I have no editing or behavioral history in common with that user. As an administrator of this project you should either block my account if you are so certain that I am a disturbance to this project or else act in a civilised and respectful manner to all contributors.

Another overwritten file

Hi Yann. File:Alberto Fernández 2019.png is another file overwritten by User:MegaTom98 that probably needs a revision deleted. I doubt this user will ever come back to Commons since it appears they only showed up for a few days in 2019 and haven't been back since. -- Marchjuly (talk) 12:11, 18 December 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

My message about you on EN-WP

As a courtesy to you, I am informing you that I have reported your edits at EN-WP, for which my talk page access there was blocked. See diff.

I am now, civilly, asking you to promptly take any corrective action you deem fit, if you feel the need to do so, otherwise I shall escalate under the WMF's terms of use for "Paid contributions without disclosure".

You are free to do whatever you want, including blocking me on Commons if you deem fit. However, it would be better for all concerned that this dispute between us is confined to Wikimedia avenues and doesn't spill into the real world. SinghIsFxing (talk) 04:08, 19 December 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]
