Blocks edit

AlCafel was blocked today. Are there any trustworthy uploaders left?? Yikes, --Leoboudv (talk) 20:15, 21 April 2024 (UTC)Reply



  • File:Jarrah Hussein Al-Silawi.jpg is a really suspicious image. Just read my DR on it carefully. 4 months after upload and the image is already gone from a flickr account with one image that has some watermarks on it.



So, they ended up in this Category . they are basically from Bernard Spraggs NZ flickr account. Best, --Leoboudv (talk) 22:55, 21 April 2024 (UTC)Reply


@Leoboudv: As I understand it A1Cafel did not upload copyvios etc. It was other problems that was the reason for the block. I will look at your finds a little later. :-) --MGA73 (talk) 13:45, 22 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
You allready cleaned up a lot of files so I asked my bot to work on a few hundred files more. --MGA73 (talk) 14:48, 22 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
  •   Comment: I don't know but this image apparently has a legitimate OTRS (now VRTS?) ticket: File:Betsy Beutler.jpg

And yes. Ooligan uploaded a few more PDM images as CC0. I marked most but not all of them. Best, --Leoboudv (talk) 02:34, 23 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

@Leoboudv: The VRT beats the Flickr review so I just removed the template. While we work on the files my bot will change CC0 to PDM so no need to do it manually.
How does it look so far? Should I request a review for the last files or are there too many bad files among them? --MGA73 (talk) 05:40, 23 April 2024 (UTC)Reply


Wow Leoboudv. That was a lot of files. I told the uploader and made my bot fix. --MGA73 (talk) 15:23, 23 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
All marked now. Now we just need users not to create more mess. I was thinking of deleting future uploads instead of fixing them. If we fix them users may just ignore us and let us do the cleaning up. If files are deleted they will have to do it themseves if they want to keep the files. ;-) --MGA73 (talk) 19:20, 23 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

Ooligan needs help edit

Latest comment: 27 days ago16 comments3 people in discussion

Dear Michael,

Can you help Ooligan with his question over here please? I did tell him that many of his uploads are ending up in this Category and I don't use upload wizard. The problem has to do with upload wizard according to Ooligan. Best, --Leoboudv (talk) 02:23, 25 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

  •   Comment: I guess that Ooligan was right. The Upload wizard does not allow flickr PDM licensed images to be uploaded as PDM sadly. Zhufeiyei is no longer involved with the bot.

By the way, I made a response to your DR here. Best, --Leoboudv (talk) 20:15, 25 April 2024 (UTC)Reply


That may explain why Ser Amantio uploaded a whole bunch of images with PDM license likes these 3 below this Friday:


Aha so there is some reward for the hard work after all ;-)
Lets hope Commons_talk:WMF_support_for_Commons/Upload_Wizard_Improvements#Uploading_files_from_Flickr_with_PDM and the bug report fixes the issue. --MGA73 (talk) 14:19, 26 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
Leoboudv Also it is not 100% sure that the files in Category:Flickr public domain images needing human review - pending bot review - not ok are bad. So you are welcome to pass them if you think they are okay. I just parked some there that looked "might not be ok".

By the way, do you or maybe Christian Ferrer know what I did wrong in uploading this important image of the only surviving 3,000+ old tent from Ancient Egypt below?

The image description is all messed up and I thought I fixed it finally with this edit but then I made another edit and its all became a mess again.


In this other image, I used the same info template but I fixed the problem: File:Isetemkheb B’s Funerary Baldachin A.jpg Best, --Leoboudv (talk) 23:43, 26 April 2024 (UTC)Reply



Hello Leoboudv! Sounds good with the deletion requests. The category can't be empty unless the hard files are either passed or deleted.

As far as I can tell there were a few problems with the file description page. In description you had the {{en|1=... but the ending }} were not in the description field but at the bottom og the file page. Also there were some cases of unbalanced {{..}. If a "{" or a "[" do not have the same number of ending "}" or "]" the page will most likely show somehing wrong.

Looking at Category:Valued images by country I can see that some countries have many and some very few. So I guess you are right that there are room for more quality images. I never nominated a photo before so I never checked the requirements. --MGA73 (talk) 05:42, 27 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

  •   Comment: Thank You so much Christian Ferrer for your explanation of the image promotion process and your kind help in fixing that mess of the Ancient Egypt tent or baldachin image description. Its hard to believe that one mistyped semicolon can cause such a mess. Kind Regards from Canada, --Leoboudv (talk) 07:22, 27 April 2024 (UTC)Reply



Secondly, I think you Michael could pass File:Reibman Jeanette.jpg because it comes from the official flickr account of a US College.


Thirdly, File:The Ranveer Show Logo.jpg & File:1940 advertisement for Coca-Cola - Gone with the Wind.png may or may not be copyrightable. I don't know. Do you? But, I filed a copyvio on File:AyamAlRo'b.jpg which supposedly dates to 1988 since {{PD-Egypt}} only applies to posters or screencaps of film works that date to 1987 and earlier in Egypt. The uploader is banned. Best, --Leoboudv (talk) 07:45, 27 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

@Leoboudv: Pierre Mac Orlan was a writer but according to File:Martin van Maele - La Comtesse au fouet 01.jpg the drawings were made by Martin Van Maele (1863–1926). I do not know if that apply to those specific drawings. --MGA73 (talk) 08:05, 27 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
Lol so I ended up spending half an hour looking at 100 year old spanking litterature :-) Anyway I think he made those illustrations himself and that they are from 1906, 1908 and 1911 versions of the book(s). So I started a DR. --MGA73 (talk) 09:05, 27 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

These 2 images edit

Latest comment: 26 days ago4 comments2 people in discussion

Should these 2 images be passed below....which are on the bad authors list? One says it is Public Domain and the work of US Marines while the other image of Haley appears to be US Government work:

Best, --Leoboudv (talk) 01:45, 28 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

  • Secondly, why was IIP Photo Archive, the source for the Haley image put on a blacklist when its photos are US State Department Government work...even when the flickr profile says it should be for non-commercial use which is not legally enforceable. This image would be put on the bad authors list which makes no sense? Best Regards, --Leoboudv (talk) 04:51, 28 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

@Leoboudv: I think the 2 photos are okay. I wonder if anyone from the US can explain why they are on bad author list. As far as I know its a part of the US Gov and therefore PD. The only reason I can think of is if non-governement photographers can share their photos on the website so that not all the photos are PD.

Perhaps ask on Commons talk:Questionable Flickr images to hear what other users think? --MGA73 (talk) 10:23, 28 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

License Review edit

Latest comment: 18 days ago19 comments3 people in discussion

Dear Michael,

  •   Comment: Or can Admins review images that they uploaded because they are trusted enough like this person Ahonc? Just curious. I am signing off and going to bed now. --Leoboudv (talk) 11:27, 29 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
@Leoboudv: I think an uploader should not review own uploads. I have sometimes transferred files from Wikipedia to Commons and reviewed the file there. But then someone else have already uploaded the file to Wikipedia. --MGA73 (talk) 14:04, 29 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
@Leoboudv: deleted. --MGA73 (talk) 07:25, 30 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
  •   Comment: Happy May Day Michael!

If you have some time please delete this category below that I accidentally created:

Hi! I deleted the category. About the space photos I can pass them if someone close as keep. --MGA73 (talk) 13:37, 1 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
@Leoboudv: Yeah it is in use. So it might be worth to see if anyone know how to check if copyrighted. I commented the DR. --MGA73 (talk) 14:52, 3 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

@Leoboudv: I have passed some and nominated some for deletion so hopefully Category:Flickr public domain images needing human review - pending bot review will soon be fixed :-) Have you looked at the sub categories of Category:Flickr public domain images needing human review - pending bot review - not ok lately? --MGA73 (talk) 17:08, 4 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

No worries :-) Happy you have more work to do again. Hopefully things are getting better in Canada. I passed a few more files and nominated others for deletion. --MGA73 (talk) 07:26, 5 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

I've made the effort over the last few years to collect these images of BC, mostly of postcards, for the purpose of HISTORICAL INTEREST.

I maintain them here and keep them PUBLIC for the enjoyment and learning of all who may be interested.

I claim NO ownership or copyright to any of the acquired, historical images."

There is no chance that he took this old 50 or 60 year old images. One of the images is under a DR and no one has closed it as delete...and all the other images should be deleted in a mass DR filed maybe by you...if you can do it. Best, --Leoboudv (talk) 11:39, 5 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

@Leoboudv: that sounds as a good reason to delete the files. --MGA73 (talk) 13:02, 5 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
