I confirm that it is a copyviol from http://www.flickr.com/photos/rickwalker/3035766702/ (sorry, I didn't realize it when I uploaded derivative version). Thought I'd upload this version, which has a free license. It should be ok, isn't it? --RanZag (talk) 13:50, 2 January 2012 (UTC)

That one would be fine. Thanks for your help, I've now deleted the copyvio. -mattbuck (Talk) 14:00, 2 January 2012 (UTC)

Thank you. Anyway I asked him if he agrees to a license change of the photo (because IMHO this one looks less appropriate for encyclopedia articles). I'll let you know the answer. --RanZag (talk) 14:28, 2 January 2012 (UTC)

He just answered and changed license. Sorry you had to do an unnecessary work! Greetings. --RanZag (talk) 14:59, 2 January 2012 (UTC)

Math Matt?

Matt - Have you ever considered using some of your knowledge of mathematics to do image processing that is not handled by the standard suite of programs that are available? I would like to find a buddy here with similar interests. If not you, then who? Also, do you see Mathematica around your department or an equivalent PD program (? SAGE ?)? Doug youvan (talk) 15:05, 12 January 2012 (UTC)

I can't say I have thought about that, I honestly have no knowledge of image processing, nor mathematica. I'm a pure mathematician, if you need more than a pen and paper to do it it isn't right. -mattbuck (Talk) 15:28, 12 January 2012 (UTC)

I appreciate that style of math: It means you can work anywhere, anytime, and it is a talent that can be practiced outside of any administrative entity. Doug youvan (talk) 16:36, 12 January 2012 (UTC)

Your assessment

Hello, I have proposed a lot of pictures for QI, some better, some worse, some have been promoted, some have not, but I have to say that it is the first time that somebody judges a photograph in the terms that you do here with the picture of the USS Missouri. I recommend you to read again the section "Above all, be polite" here. Thank you. Poco a poco (talk) 21:15, 13 January 2012 (UTC)

I think you're misinterpreting my comment: by "shame" I meant "it is a shame" (because I like the view), not "shame on the uploader". But "first time somebody judges a photograph" as I do? What is so non-standard about commenting on grain, overexposure and chromatic aberration? -mattbuck (Talk) 21:48, 13 January 2012 (UTC)

I see, then it was a misunderstanding, sorry for that. I had the impression that you were being too tough, CA, grain, tilt, color balance, exposure, etc. comments are more than welcome! Poco a poco (talk) 22:18, 13 January 2012 (UTC)

About the page you delete

Hello mattbuck, I'm writing on regard the page you delete couple of week ago, I wonder if you can restore that page, Entronque de Herradura. You delete that page because you said, that I was violating the copyright, and that you found copies of those photo on panoramio. On the following link I have proof that those picture are my. http://www.facebook.com/?m2w&refid=7&pos=1 This link is my page on facebook. http://www.youtube.com/?nomobile=1 this is link to youtube, were I upload 16 video from my hometown. And the follow link is my page on panoramio http://www.panoramio.com/user/3568715. You can see on those link, that those picture were taken by my, on one of my trip to my hometown Entronque de Herradura. Thank you --Portales (talk) 17:47, 20 January 2012 (UTC)

The images I found on Panoramio were not licensed freely, so were deleted as copyvios. We have no way of knowing you are the person who uploaded those, so I deleted them under the precautionary principle. If you want to reupload, the easiest way is to licence them under CC-BY-SA or similar at Panoramio. -mattbuck (Talk) 19:06, 20 January 2012 (UTC)

File:Having_Sex_Doggy_with_vagina_juice.jpg

Did you keep this image for real? It is clearly out of scope and should be deleted as garbage. Artem Karimov (talk) 07:24, 25 January 2012 (UTC)

Our scope is images which are potentially educational and are freely licensed, plus a few exceptions for WMF images. Sex is within scope, humans having sex is in scope. It's decent quality (not good, but not awful), and it's freely licensed. Please explain why you feel this is outside our scope. -mattbuck (Talk) 08:37, 25 January 2012 (UTC)

Mattbuck, would you be against a name change for this file? I'm not sure that this is an obvious example of 'doggy-style' or that 'vagina juice' is meaningful either. With a more accurate file name it might seem a teensy bit less inflammatory. --Fæ (talk) 10:07, 25 January 2012 (UTC)

Go ahead. -mattbuck (Talk) 10:19, 25 January 2012 (UTC)

How about Vaginal intercourse, lubricated? I'm not used to thinking about how to express such things in plain English. --Fæ (talk) 10:31, 25 January 2012 (UTC)

Something like that yes. The term lubricated is a bit of a misnomer here, because from the current image name I think the implication is that any lubricant is simply vaginal juices, but it will suffice. -mattbuck (Talk) 11:13, 25 January 2012 (UTC)

Katia Elizarova image deletion - revived topic

Not sure of the best way to revive a topic - so here goes. Have copied the thread from your archive below for your review: Essentially, when you go to the Facebook page of the subject, you can now see in the comments a release to use for Wiki as you noted would allow the image to be made available in commons.

Here's the Facebook page for your reference - see comments for the release : https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.127047367362550.22906.126994697367817&type=3#!/photo.php?fbid=205279846205968&set=a.127047367362550.22906.126994697367817&type=3&theater

This is the image as uploaded to commons to be released : http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Katia_Elizarova_opens_Swarovski_Runway_Rocks_in_London.jpg

Thanks - Is that all you need?

--Carpefemme (talk) 00:43, 03 February 2012 (UTC)

Hello again. As I explained earlier, what we need is an explicit statement of licence. Saying "yes you can upload it to Wikipedia" is not good enough. All images on Commons must be freely licensed - this means anyone can use them for any purpose, including commercial applications and creating derivative works. What is needed is an explicit statement of this, and understanding that such a release is irrevocable, and the easiest way to do this is with stating "I release this under the Creative Commons Atrribution ShareAlike License version 3.0" or something. -mattbuck (Talk) 00:36, 3 February 2012 (UTC)

Finally - there is an explicit statement - added here in the comments where the original image is downloadable from https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=205279846205968&set=a.127047367362550.22906.126994697367817&type=3&theater

Is it possible to release this now for use as prescribed? carpefemme (Talk) 17:22, 16 February 2012 (UTC)

Just wondering whether you were able to action the above? carpefemme (Talk) 19:09, 29 February 2012 (UTC)

Hi There,

You closed the conversation on the undeletion request for an image a little too quick for me to respond to I wanted to let you know here that I have found the link you requested - A copy of the conversation with th eappended link is below. Can you now make the image available once more in Commons?

Thanks for your help.

This undeletion discussion is now closed. Please do not make any edits to this archive.

--Carpefemme (talk) 13:10, 12 December 2011 (UTC)

I did give it over a week... As for the page you linked, simply being available is not evidence of permission. I can put up a picture on my website without necessarily releasing it under a Commons-compatible licence. No licence is listed at the page you linked, therefore we do not have permission. -mattbuck (Talk) 19:16, 14 December 2011 (UTC)

So if there were a note on that image that explicitly said it could be considered License free, or permissible for upload to commons that would satisfy? --Carpefemme (talk) 09:26, 18 December 2011 (UTC)

Yes. An explicit statement of licence would work. -mattbuck (Talk) 09:44, 18 December 2011 (UTC)

As soon as I have to improve the photo, I need to understand you words precisely. You say, «Too bright, perspective curve distracting». What do the words «perspective curve» mean? What place is too bright?--PereslavlFoto (talk) 18:10, 16 February 2012 (UTC)

Generally the image is too bright - the curve is too far to the high levels, bring it down a bit to make it more pleasing to the eye.

As for perspective curve, I meant the standard perspective distortion where the middle of a building looks bigger than the edges, making the horizontal lines seem curved. -mattbuck (Talk) 18:20, 16 February 2012 (UTC)

You mean, I have to make it less pale, to add contrast? Do I understand you in a right way? But the details in shadows will become less visible then. This was a bright sunny day.--PereslavlFoto (talk) 18:42, 16 February 2012 (UTC)

Also, I will check the perspective; the lens usually don't make this distortion, and I stood quite far from the building.--PereslavlFoto (talk) 18:42, 16 February 2012 (UTC)

Yes, make it darker generally. I understand it was a sunny day, but this sort of thing is why we wear sunglasses. -mattbuck (Talk) 18:45, 16 February 2012 (UTC)

I would like to discuss your review for this photo. By "bright" you obviously mean the wall with invisible bricks. I see the purpling on wires and will remvoe it. But where are the "mild haloes"? And, by the way, how must I prepare the photo to express the bright summer say? Thank you for the explaining.--PereslavlFoto (talk) 12:53, 24 February 2012 (UTC)

By bright, I meant more that the sky is cyan rather than blue, indicating overexposure in one or more channels - the building itself seems about right to me. There are mild haloes around the sky/roof boundary. -mattbuck (Talk) 13:46, 24 February 2012 (UTC)

Other categorization methods

I've taken your advice on board, and categorized by other metrics aside from just year. Please see

1. Category:Videos of ejaculation by format
2. Category:Black and white videos of ejaculation

These are definitely more useful categorization methods. Thanks for the suggestion, -- Cirt (talk) 18:06, 29 February 2012 (UTC)

Update:  Done, now you don't have to go moving anything, I've changed it from "year" to "decade" categorization, which is definitely useful, as technology most certainly changes enough from decade to decade to significantly impact quality. :) Cheers, -- Cirt (talk) 19:21, 29 February 2012 (UTC)

I wasn't suggesting ejaculation by decade either, though I'm happy with the colour/bw. I honestly don't see a need for date-categorisation of something which really does not change over time. -mattbuck (Talk) 19:35, 29 February 2012 (UTC)

Category for districts of Lancashire

I started to create a new category for this, but I see that you deleted such a category in April last year. What was the issue with Category:Districts in Lancashire? It seems messy to me to have the districts scattered through the list of entries in Category:Lancashire, plus one can't tell what the significance of them is. --Auntof6 (talk) 06:20, 5 March 2012 (UTC)

Blocked

For this blatant trolling on a sensitive topic, I've blocked you for 24 hours. Nobody is exempt from the requirement not to disrupt Commons. Rd232 (talk) 09:56, 15 March 2012 (UTC)

Calling other pedophiles or enablers (supporters of pedophiles), which is a legal threat and accuse without evidence, seams to be no issue. Thank you! -- ／人◕ ‿‿ ◕人＼ 苦情処理係 10:05, 15 March 2012 (UTC)

Those comments are part of a serious discussion, and there is sufficient evidence available that blocking for it is not warranted. Nor is it a legal threat (and if it were, we don't have a policy against them... COM:NLT is a redlink). Rd232 (talk) 10:21, 15 March 2012 (UTC)

Ridiculous block. /Pieter Kuiper (talk) 10:07, 15 March 2012 (UTC)

Blocking Mattbuck on this seems weak and a serious mistake in comparison to some of the unacceptable behaviour and dramah we have seen on-wiki from an apparent traveling circus which has not (yet) resulted in blocks all round. --Fæ (talk) 10:15, 15 March 2012 (UTC)

See my comment above. Now does anyone want to actually defend Matt's post, or claim it wasn't trolling, or argue that it wouldn't cause disruptive drama? Rd232 (talk) 10:21, 15 March 2012 (UTC)

That post expressed Mattbuck's opinion. Few people would have commented on it, I think. There would be less drama if you were not trying to "manage" so much. /Pieter Kuiper (talk) 10:26, 15 March 2012 (UTC)

"Few people would have commented" - ROTFLMAO. Rd232 (talk) 10:29, 15 March 2012 (UTC)

If i consider the current drama caused by WR, and the people involved with it, that accuse users to be pedophiles or their supporters out of own conviction, then i think we should consider it as an serious attempt. -- ／人◕ ‿‿ ◕人＼ 苦情処理係 10:26, 15 March 2012 (UTC)

No amount of words will turn this into anything other than trolling. If you want to propose something serious in relation to WR or to offwiki activities generally, feel free. (Same to Mattbuck or anyone else, obviously). Rd232 (talk) 10:29, 15 March 2012 (UTC)

Please try to justify that you don't block users for legal threats (calling other pedophiles and enablers) but for "satire". -- ／人◕ ‿‿ ◕人＼ 苦情処理係 10:41, 15 March 2012 (UTC)

For the 3rd (?) time: those are not threats, and in any case we don't have a policy against legal threats. (If we did, and they were, somebody would have blocked those users already.) Rd232 (talk) 10:48, 15 March 2012 (UTC)

You need a policy for this? -- ／人◕ ‿‿ ◕人＼ 苦情処理係 10:51, 15 March 2012 (UTC)

Yes. In fact, I recall one was briefly discussed a while ago, and rejected, because so much of Commons' work involves legal issues, and we wouldn't want to end up rigidly blocking rights holders who make threats or statements construable as threats. Rd232 (talk) 10:56, 15 March 2012 (UTC)

What about violations of human rights? -- ／人◕ ‿‿ ◕人＼ 苦情処理係 10:58, 15 March 2012 (UTC)

Those are bad. (I'm a member of Amnesty.) What does that have to do with anything? Rd232 (talk) 11:01, 15 March 2012 (UTC)

You did not hear about a Right to a fair trial or Presumption of innocence? Calling someone a pedophile or enabler before providing any evidence is a violation of this rights. -- ／人◕ ‿‿ ◕人＼ 苦情処理係 11:08, 15 March 2012 (UTC)

Human rights apply to states, not to speech by private citizens. (There may be an issue of libel, but that's almost always a civil matter.) We should have principles of due process on Wikimedia, and mostly we do; it's just very difficult to apply in such cases. In this particular case, the evidence to support the claim has been growing, and and it's there to be found in the lengthy discussion if you want to look for it. Rd232 (talk) 11:46, 15 March 2012 (UTC)

My comment was an observation. I would have more to say about this block if Mattbuck were to take the initiative to request an unblock and put forward their case, if they are not bothered then theorizing here just creates more material for WR fueled drama and personal attacks that we are all sick of by now. --Fæ (talk) 12:15, 15 March 2012 (UTC)

Unblock request granted This blocked user asked to be unblocked, and one or more administrators has reviewed and granted this request. Request reason: "You know I've never had to fill out this template before, this is a learning experience! I'll state first off that I am not in any way sorry for what I posted, and I do frankly resent Rd232's removal of it from VP, but I wouldn't try and put it back. I stand by everything I said, the way Commons has acted this past week has been a complete disgrace. We have hounded off someone who was a decent contributor because we let a few people who are not good contributors here slander him repeatedly. That my "proposal", albeit completely sarcastic, would actually make Commons a much better place should shame us all. So, why should I be unblocked? Well, I could go with how other people have spent this past week trolling and slandering with nothing at all done about it, but instead I'll say this, how does my being blocked help Commons? My being blocked is not going to get us more useful contributions, or in any way significantly reduce the amount of trolling going on. I'm a sarcastic asshole, and stuff like this is how I vent. I am frankly stunned there has not been a similar reaction from every other admin to the way we have all been trolled this past week. While everyone else was doing nothing but answering those trolls, I was uploading pictures and categorising things, and generally trying to avoid being emotional about the Beta M issue. I blew my top because the shit forced away someone who has done nothing wrong here. You should all be feeling the same. To summarise, no point keeping me blocked, I'm not going to try and put it back and the issue's dead anyway since Beta M has quit. One final thought. Rd232, a week ago you were cool. What happened? -mattbuck (Talk) 13:41, 15 March 2012 (UTC)" Unblock reason: "Unblocked per agreement not to reinsert, though I'm not happy about the "this is how I vent" remark. This sort of posting is disruptive, and should not be done. Rd232 (talk) 13:54, 15 March 2012 (UTC)" This template should be archived normally.

(Block log) (unblock) (Change local status for a global block) (contribs)

• I support a prompt unblock as requested. Mattbuck has made a commitment to not post the proposal back that Rd232 found disruptive. If Mattbuck stays blocked then we probably all agree there is a list of at least ten other accounts that should be immediately blocked on the basis of deliberately disrupting Commons consensus processes with much more inflammatory material, some of it reposting or linking to dubious material and far more inflammatory canvassing discussions off-wiki. BTW Rd232, honestly, please take a chill pill and take Commons:Staying mellow to heart. --Fæ (talk) 13:52, 15 March 2012 (UTC)
• I also approve of the unblock - I not merely approve of the sarcastic proposal, but have actually thought very much the same thing. In this case, I decided that on consideration WR had a point after all, but that doesn't change the fact that their familiar tactics of confusing and confounding, trying to cobble together a case out of scanty evidence mixed with a lot of anti-porn attitude, made things so hard to see that in the end the evidence that convinced me was more stuff I'd found from scratch on web searching, plus some stuff that Michaeldsuarez brought up very late, than the stuff from the original complaint. So whichever side I end up on WR is still exasperating and I sympathize greatly with Mattbuck. Wnt (talk) 16:54, 15 March 2012 (UTC)
  • Frustrations about WR are really quite irrelevant to the validity of the VP post. I dare say if Matt made the point in a related discussion, or even in a userspace essay of some kind, plenty of people would approve of it. Rd232 (talk) 17:20, 15 March 2012 (UTC)
    • Dude, you are standing pretty alone. I'd take the hint and at the least drop it, better yet apologize. --Dschwen (talk) 19:00, 15 March 2012 (UTC)

Sorry my mistake - didn't know it had been repainted - I only created the "67029" cat because I assumed it was unique - feel free to nuke the category if it offends. (But please keep Category:EWS Company train - hoping for more images fo that)>Oranjblud (talk) 23:08, 16 March 2012 (UTC)

I should also point out that this is part of a category tree standard to all British trains (or at least modern ones). All trains are categorised in class by operator, livery and line, even when there is only one operator and livery, as with 171s, 378s, etc. -mattbuck (Talk) 23:29, 16 March 2012 (UTC)

What do you mean by perspective correction? What place you feel to be a trouble? And where do you see the blur? Thanks.--PereslavlFoto (talk) 23:38, 16 March 2012 (UTC)

I say perspective correction on the basis that the wall isn't vertical but the image itself clearly is. On reflection I think the blur is just the woman moving her head. -mattbuck (Talk) 00:01, 17 March 2012 (UTC)

This means the blur was unavoidable and has little sense. What wall do you mean? Maybe I will fix the part of that image to make a good impression.--PereslavlFoto (talk) 07:53, 17 March 2012 (UTC)

The line of the corner of the wall should, in principle, be vertical. It isn't. -mattbuck (Talk) 14:12, 17 March 2012 (UTC)

Thanks, I'll mind this advice. And what do you mean by bad crop? What kind of crop will improve the photo? The idea was to show that people vote for Putin's Olympics idea.--PereslavlFoto (talk) 17:32, 17 March 2012 (UTC)

I just don't like the crop on the right, how it cuts off mid-way through a table and basketball hoop. I accept it makes the main subject central, but it feels a bit messy. -mattbuck (Talk) 17:35, 17 March 2012 (UTC)

That's the price I paid to keep the boxes in center. I may clear the basketball hoop; will it be better then?--PereslavlFoto (talk) 17:52, 17 March 2012 (UTC)

I don't know. -mattbuck (Talk) 22:33, 17 March 2012 (UTC)

I am checking the verticality and perspective thoroughly, and I see the ballot boxes are vertical, and the chair to the left is vertical, and the table to the right is vertical. This makes me think it's a crooked wall in the left corner. Maybe you'll give me some practical advice on improving the image? Thank you.--PereslavlFoto (talk) 09:45, 21 March 2012 (UTC)

I'm not sure it can be improved, I simply don't believe it's suitable for QI. -mattbuck (Talk) 13:27, 21 March 2012 (UTC)

Swat Valley

Hello. You said about this picture (Swatvalley x 104.JPG) that it was to "exposed". I'm not sure to understand, you mean there is too light ? I trie to promote an image of the Pakistani Swat Valley at the moment. What do you thing of these others images ? Could they be promote ? (sorry for my poor english). Guillaume70 (talk) 13:49, 18 March 2012 (UTC)

The second, third, and fourth there have a chance, the first one doesn't. Overexposed means that there are areas of the image which are completely white - this usually affects the sky. Underexposure is the opposite - areas which are completely black. Unfortunately neither of those is fixable - it's a problem with the photo, no matter what you do to it. With the camera you have, it will be very difficult to get images promoted, as it lacks the options of a DSLR. Generally images for QI will need to be post-processed using Photoshop or something similar, to correct tilt, adjust contrast and colour balance, and things like that. File:Lake Swatvalley x103.JPG for instance needs the contrast to be increased, but without changing the white point, and needs to be rotated a few degrees clockwise. File:Swat River Pakistan.JPG needs tilt correction, and also a crop at the bottom to remove the bridge section at the bottom right.

Hope this helps. -mattbuck (Talk) 14:12, 18 March 2012 (UTC)

Dear Mattbuck, the image is not violation. It is a published image on magazines. It has water marked Kinohimitsu at the background. Is there any way to do it properly? I am new to wiki

Positive69 (talk) 10:20, 26 March 2012 (UTC)

That the image has been published in magazines does not mean it is free (as in the definition of free media - that anyone can use it for any purpose, including commercial or derivative uses, without asking first). Unless you yourself created the image, or the source has an explicit statement of a free licence (eg this is published under the GFDL), it is a copyright violation to post it here. -mattbuck (Talk) 13:35, 26 March 2012 (UTC)

Dear Mattbuck: Can this picture be accepted if the creator or owner of the picture agrees for posting up in wikipedia? Do you need a company letter head , for example KINO BIOTECH and they agreeing to post it. Or do you accept an email from the Brand owner concerned? Who shall it attention to? I understand this is taking much of your precious time. Truly appreciate your effort. I am very new in wiki. My apology. Hope you can mentor me on this so that i will learn to do it properly in all near future contributions. Thanks Positive69 (talk) 05:55, 27 March 2012 (UTC)

I expect the marketing department or something would be acceptable. You'd need to get them to email our OTRS team, with an explicit statement of licence.

Thanks a lot, admin. You're a real model to emulate. I took objection to your phrasing "what you're on about", which is a phrasing that you used on purpose to insult me probably because you're pissed that yet someone else from another project is coming to mess with your delicious frothy ass pictures. Sorry, I'm from the simple pedia, where such things are Twinkled. I only managed to nominate these fucking things in the first place by copying someone else's actions one step at a time, apparently skipping one of the steps. Now, if someone appears to be a dumbass on the simple pedia, and I happen upon it, I don't go and put them in their place: I trace their steps to see if I can help them. But please don't put yourself out. Drmies (talk) 21:46, 1 April 2012 (UTC)

No, I honestly have better things to do than invent cryptic ways to insult you. The phrasing "image(s) you're on about" is simply the way I speak. As for nominating things for deletion, there's a link in the toolbox on every single file/category page. I'm sorry you didn't find this, but if it is problematic, the deletion requests page explains step-by-step how to do it. I know nothing of Twinkle, I assume that's some script you have to enable.
