Trusted?

Hi. I was wondering how you justified this edit.   — Jeff G. (talk|contribs) 12:26, 12 August 2007 (UTC)

I thought it was about uploading pictures and knowing policy. Yes, I copied the box from Riana's page, but I removed it later due to the qualifications of being "trusted". Cheers. Miranda 15:45, 12 August 2007 (UTC)

Would you care to apply? You've got 255 edits under your belt.   — Jeff G. (talk|contribs) 05:05, 13 August 2007 (UTC)

Please link images

Hello!

Thank you for providing images to the Wikimedia Commons. Please keep in mind that images uploaded to the Commons should be useful to all users of Wikimedia projects. This is possible only if the images can be found by other people.

To allow others to find the images you uploaded here, the images should be in some place that can be found by navigating the category structure. This means that you should put the images into appropriate topic pages, categories, optionally galleries, or both of them (see Commons:Categories). To find good categories for your images, the CommonSense tool may help.

You can find a convenient overview of your uploaded files in this gallery.

The important point is that the images should be placed in the general structure somewhere. There are a large number of completely unsorted images on the Commons right now. If you would like to help to place some of those images where they can be found, please do!

Thank you. Siebrand 10:32, 16 August 2007 (UTC)

Image:Qxz-ad89.gif

Your banner Image:Qxz-ad89.gif promoting Wikimedia Commons said: " Wikimedia Commons needs your free, non-commercial images ". Commons doesn't accept non-commercial images, as you should know being a flickrreviewer. As it was misleading, i have deleted it. You're welcome to upload a new version without the non-commercial text. Also give the images better names, like Commons-banner-Wikimedia-campaign-2007.gif Platonides 17:13, 7 September 2007 (UTC)

I fixed it. It's "free, commercial images". And, I incorporated it into the Qxz-ads on .en, too. Please don't delete. Miranda 17:17, 7 September 2007 (UTC)

We would appreciate it if you could go to voice your opinion about this at its entry. If you created this image, 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. If the file is up for deletion because it has been superseded by a superior derivative of your work, consider the notion that although the file may be deleted, your hard work (which we all greatly appreciate) lives on in the new file. In all cases, please do not take the deletion request personally. It is never intended as such. Thank you!

Ownership of pages

Hi, maybe you're familiar with the guidelines COM:OWN and WP:OWN. We don't appreciate edits like this. Rocket000 23:23, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

Hi, he took my template without attributing my work under CC-BY-SA. In Wikipedia, contribs are under GFDL, but under some cases you have to attribute the author for your work. I attribute my contributions under CC-BY-SA. So, under that license, if another user wants to use my work, they must attribute the author and I was attributing my work, since the author did not follow the guidelines. Cheers. miranda 23:31, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

I don't have a problem with him using my work, but he must attribute me according to the license. miranda 23:33, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

That only applies to media files, not templates. All text is released under the GFDL. Sure, you can add things on top of it, but you can't remove the GFDL option. Attribution can not be required in this way. Have you ever seen another template have someone's name in it? What if it had a hundred authors? What if the template was used on articles? That would totally go against WP's policies. I'm not asking you to undo your edits, but I do think you need to rethink this. Rocket000 23:52, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

Yes I have. w:User_talk:Miranda/L#Thankspam, and no, I will not undo my edits. I made this template from scratch. Sorry. miranda 00:23, 11 January 2008 (UTC)

Please re-read my comment. I wasn't asking you to undo your edits. And you're welcome. :) Rocket000 00:54, 11 January 2008 (UTC)

Question: Hypothetically speaking, would I be in violation of your rights if I revert your edits. Rocket000 00:59, 11 January 2008 (UTC)

I would like my content properly attributed? That's all I ask? miranda 01:08, 11 January 2008 (UTC)

I respect that. (I wouldn't revert even my own talk page) I was just curious. Rocket000 01:14, 11 January 2008 (UTC)

self-review

Hi Miranda, for flickrreview you shouldn't review your own uploads. The idea is to have a third party review the copyright status in case it's challenged by the flickr uploader who changes their licensing options. I'm also a trusted user so I reviewed your photos that I saw you had done that to (two recent shoe ones) but if there are others you should put them back to {{Flickrreview}} so that they get reviewed by a bot or by another user. Thanks, Calliopejen 19:11, 20 January 2008 (UTC)

Hello, this image was deleted because it's a duplicate of Image:Rachel Marsden at CPAC 2008.jpg. --GeorgHH • talk   20:01, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

That's cool. I got the e-mail from the person and decided to upload. I didn't see that CW uploaded the image already. miranda 20:11, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

License issues

Hi there. I've recently changed the license of a picture you uploaded from GFDL to PD. The image, Image:JFKJr2.jpg, is simply a crop from the Public Domain image Image:JFKJr.jpg, and therefore you are not authorized to change the license or claim the work as your own (you claim the source as "self made"). Thanks! Save-Me-Oprah 00:56, 23 April 2008 (UTC)

This media may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:JeanNorrisBaylor.jpg. This image 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 send an email with copy of a written permission to OTRS ([email protected]).

Unless the permission information is given, the image may be speedy deleted after seven days. Thank you. ShakataGaNai ^Talk 07:53, 7 June 2008 (UTC)

Your RfA

Dear Miranda,

Since there was no community consensus at this point to grant you sysop tools, I'm afraid it was closed as unsuccessful. You strike me as a hard working user, interested in the project and always ready to ask when in doubt; these are great qualities of yours. Please don't take the criticisms that were stated on your RfA as negative; I think there were very constructive comments, and some good advice. Please do keep up with your good work, this project needs all the help that can get :). Cheers, Patrícia ^msg 21:37, 14 June 2008 (UTC)

Thanks. miranda 21:38, 14 June 2008 (UTC)

I would second Patricia's advice to take comments, good and bad, on board, and thanks for the thank you :) Best wishes. Lar: t/c 22:16, 14 June 2008 (UTC)

Licence question

Hello!

Is it then allowed to upload this image from flickr? It is under the following conditions: Attribution, noncommercial and share alike. -- High Contrast (talk) 07:08, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

We can only accept Attribution and Attribution Share Alike. So the image cannot be uploaded here. See this for more details. Cheers. miranda 17:34, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

Notice of namespace-rename "Image" -> "File"

Dear user, the MediaWiki developers recently announced that the "Image:" namespace is going to be renamed to "File:". "Image:" will remain an alias. The canonical namespace name wgCanonicalNamespace will change from "Image" to "File".

I noticed that you use wgCanonicalNamespace in either your monobook.js page or a JavaScript file in your userspace (check this list).

Please check and replace all occurrences of

wgCanonicalNamespace == "Image"

with

wgNamespaceNumber == 6

to ensure that your scripts keep working. Thanks! --Dschwen (talk) 18:41, 7 October 2008 (UTC)

OSX - if you would look at the rationale, the suit is copyrighted. Thus, both images should be speedily deleted per OTRS. miranda 20:07, 30 March 2009 (UTC)

File source is not properly indicated: File:Akams4.jpg

This media was probably deleted.

A file that you have uploaded to Wikimedia Commons, File:Akams4.jpg, was missing information about where it comes from or who created it, which is needed to verify its copyright status. The file probably has been deleted. If you've got all required information, request undeletion providing this information and the link to the concerned file ([[:File:Akams4.jpg]]). If you created the content yourself, enter {{Own}} as the source. If you did not add a licensing template, you must add one. You may use, for example, {{self|GFDL|cc-by-sa-all}} or {{Cc-zero}} to release certain rights to your work. If someone else created the content, or if it is based on someone else's work, the source should be the address to the web page where you found it, the name and ISBN of the book you scanned it from, or similar. You should also name the author, provide verifiable information to show that the content is in the public domain or has been published under a free license by its author, and add an appropriate template identifying the public domain or licensing status, if you have not already done so. Warning: Wikimedia Commons takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing. Please add the required information for this and other files you have uploaded before adding more files. If you need assistance, please ask at the help desk. Thank you!
