You are receiving this message because you voted in R1 of the 2015 Picture of the Year contest.

Dear Adam Cuerden,

Wikimedia Commons is happy to announce that the second round of the 2015 Picture of the Year competition is now open. This year will be the tenth edition of the annual Wikimedia Commons photo competition, which recognizes exceptional contributions by users on Wikimedia Commons. Wikimedia users are invited to vote for their favorite images featured on Commons during the last year (2015) to produce a single Picture of the Year.

Hundreds of images that have been rated Featured Pictures by the international Wikimedia Commons community in the past year were entered in this competition. These images include professional animal and plant shots, breathtaking panoramas and skylines, restorations of historical images, photographs portraying the world's best architecture, impressive human portraits, and so much more.

There are two total rounds of voting. In the first round, you voted for as many images as you liked. In Round 1, there were 1322 candidate images. There are 56 finalists in Round 2, comprised of the top 30 overall as well as the top #1 and #2 from each sub-category. In the final round, you may vote for just one or maximal three image to become the Picture of the Year.

Round 2 will end on 28 May 2016, 23:59:59 UTC.

Thanks,
-- Wikimedia Commons Picture of the Year committee 09:42, 22 May 2016 (UTC)

Coates Restoration

Thanks again for your restoration of Mrs. Coates' image and FP nomination. Far from perfect or complete, I tried my hand at restoring an image of Mrs. Coates' mother some years ago, and other damaged images of members of her family.

Wikimedia Commons and the University of Edinburgh

Hi Adam, just to say hello following our meeting up at Wikimania the other week. Really enjoyed your talk. I also would like to run something by you. We have this project called the Edinburgh Digital Ambassador which has a page here. It's a pilot scheme to get students to engage in & evidence 50 hours of learning digital skills after which they get an award. Wikimedia is one of the options they have along with lynda.com and Media Hopper. W:User:Anniesnow is one such student and she has said she's be interested in doing some work on Wikicommons. Suggested maybe taking pics of buildings in Edinburgh that aren't represented on Wikipedia but I think you will probably have a lot more suggestions of ways in which she could add to & improve the content of Wikicommons. Any thoughts of how we can put her to good work then let me know. PLUS I'm meeting the University library team next Friday 15th at 3.30pm at 15 George Square if you'd be free to attend the meeting to discuss releasing some of their content on Wikicommons. Apparently they have around 7000 images they are considering releasing so I'd appreciate your input on the best way to do it (getting the right metadata, wikidata added at the get go etc.) If you're free to join us then great if not then any suggestions would be gratefully appreciated. Can even send you the list of items they have in their collections if you would like a nosey (they have created a directory of all their collections now for the first time). Although you can also see some of their images at http://images.is.ed.ac.uk/ Anyhoo, you can get me at ewan.mcandrew@ed.ac.uk or via Wikipedia:University of Edinburgh.

I used one of your photos

Hello Adam!

I have used a photo of Dicrocoelium dendriticum in my free software educational proyect "Animalandia" (http://animalandia.educa.madrid.org)

You can see directly in the follow link and clic over "Siguiente" ("Next"):

http://animalandia.educa.madrid.org/imagen.php?id=45858

If you wish (and I hope yes), you can send me (via fernando.lison@educa.madrid.org) some letters or/and a photo for your "contributor profile" in Animalandia:

http://animalandia.educa.madrid.org/autor.php?nombre=Adam+Cuerden

I want show to my students (and so everybody) that Animalandia is make for "real person", and I can tell them about "generosity", "share" and other similar words that we use very few at this time...

Generosity Crowdfunding Campaign for User:The Photographer

Please excuse me spamming you. As a regular on Feature Picture Candidatess you will recognise User:The Photographer, who has 86 Featured Pictures. His contributions cover the architecture and culture of Brazil and Venezuela. He has basic photographic equipment: an old D300 camera and 35mm lens, and lives in a poor country where photographic equipment is expensive. The Photographer has recently taken several images using the technique where multiple frames are stitched together to create a high-resolution panorama. However, many times frustrated with the stitching errors that result from trying to take such photos without a proper panoramic head for his tripod. This special equipment permits the camera to be rotated around the entrance pupil of the lens, and eliminates such errors. Having a panoramic head would greatly increase the potential for The Photographer to create sharp high-resolution images for Commons. In addition, the purchase of a fisheye lens would enable 180 × 360° panoramas to be taken, which are a great way to explore a scene as though one is really there.

Please see the discussion about the Crowd-funding campaign on User talk:The Photographer#Generosity Crowdfunding Campaign and visit the Generosity Crowd-funding Campaign page to consider donating. Even a modest donation will make a difference if many people contribute. Thanks. -- Colin (talk) 13:38, 22 November 2016 (UTC)

Kielstra

Dear Adam Cuerden, Could you tell me which guideline makes uploading of a separate version of this file really necessary? Vysotsky (talk) 08:13, 1 December 2016 (UTC)

@Vysotsky: Commons:Overwriting_existing_files, paragraph beginning "If digital restoration work is being done on a historical document or artwork".... It's always better to have the original available as a separate file. Adam Cuerden (talk) 00:43, 2 December 2016 (UTC)

Dear Adam Cuerden, Of course it is better to have a separate file when doing digital restoration on artworks or historical documents. But this Kielstra photograph is a plain portrait photo made by a photo bureau, so I really think it's useless to upload a separate file. Vysotsky (talk) 07:24, 2 December 2016 (UTC)

@Vysotsky: A photograph is a historical document, and having the original to hand helps document what has changed. Adam Cuerden (talk) 14:52, 2 December 2016 (UTC)

Dear Adam Cuerden. Let's then agree to disagree. The original is at hand -just check earlier versions at the same page. Vysotsky (talk) 14:58, 2 December 2016 (UTC)

Dear Adam Cuerden, I disagree with you, and really think the old version of the photograph is useless and the Wiki rules are quite clear (and don't apply to photographs like these). But I won't waste my and your time on quarrelling and reverting, so I uploaded the restored file as a separate file. Vysotsky (talk) 13:10, 4 December 2016 (UTC)

Moving old files

I'm not sure what uyour intention is with this move, but I recommend not moving such files and uploading over them, because doing that alters the history of the articles which link them. It is much better to leave the orignal file page and create a new file page for more recent (better) images. --Robert.Allen (talk) 00:06, 6 February 2019 (UTC)

@Robert.Allen: My impression was, if the image was a straight, unambiguous improvement of what was otherwise the exact same image - minor cropping differences aside - it was better to upload over, e.g. the original vs. a copy. If the images were different in some way, e.g, File:Josephine Fodor-Mainvielle Litho.jpg was low quality, but a substantially different image to File:Jean-Baptiste Singry - Joséphine Mainvielle-Fodor.jpg (the first is a reproduction of the latter about 15 years later) Adam Cuerden (talk) 01:28, 6 February 2019 (UTC)

I know there are differences of opinion, but in my view it is important to preserve an accurate history of Wikipedia artricles, even when they were of lesser quality. Loading up new images over old ones does not do that. It may be a bit more trouble, but it's far better to preserve the old file pages so the old images show up when an old version is displayed using the history tab for articles which link these images. --Robert.Allen (talk) 01:35, 6 February 2019 (UTC)

Given the number of templates in Wikipedia articles, I can't help but feel that this is a hopeless endeavour. However, I'll do what I can. Adam Cuerden (talk) 08:19, 6 February 2019 (UTC)

Well, yes, you may be right. Anyway, templates are a related but separate issue. If the History function under the History tab was better implemented, perhaps we wouldn't have to be bothered about these things. The computer would be keeping track of which version of an image or which version of a template was used. --Robert.Allen (talk) 08:47, 6 February 2019 (UTC)

Hi Adam, I would like your opinion about how much restoration should be done such a case. Thanks in advance. Regards, Yann (talk) 17:34, 11 March 2019 (UTC)

• • @Yann: First of all, hose light spots on his face and jacket need to go. Secondly, there's a certain amount of "good" material in there. I'd try to salvage as much of it as possible, then reconstruct to a theoretical crop that contains all original material. I'll mark that on the thing. In other words, the darker, chromatic patches should have the clean bbackground spread into them at the top and sides, and the jacket extended down slightly to even up the bottom.

Thanks for uploading File:Mrs. Fiske, "Love finds the way" - Zaida Ben Yusuf. LCCN2006677585 - Restoration.jpg. I notice that the file page either doesn't contain enough information about the license or it contains contradictory information about the license, so the copyright status is unclear. If you created this file yourself, then you must provide a valid copyright tag. For example, you can tag it with {{self|GFDL|cc-by-sa-all}} to release it under the multi-license GFDL plus Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike All-version license or you can tag it with {{PD-self}} to release it into the public domain. (See Commons:Copyright tags for the full list of license tags that you can use.) If you did not create the file yourself or if it is a derivative of another work that is possibly subject to copyright protection, then you must specify where you found it (e.g. usually a link to the web page where you got it), you must provide proof that it has a license that is acceptable for Commons (e.g. usually a link to the terms of use for content from that page), and you must add an appropriate license tag. If you did not create the file yourself and the specific source and license information is not available on the web, you must obtain permission through the OTRS system and follow the procedure described there. Note that any unsourced or improperly licensed files will be deleted one week after they have been marked as lacking proper information, as described in criteria for deletion. If you have uploaded other files, please confirm that you have provided the proper information for those files, too. If you have any questions about licenses please ask at Commons:Village pump/Copyright or see our help pages. Thank you.

Curious

Hi Adam, we were wondering in Persian Wikipedia, if there are more portraits of Persian/Iranian politician, kings etc. at Nadar's archive that you're aware of? We also appreciate your great work on Naser al-Din Shah Qajar portrait by Nadar. It is now being voted on fawiki to be FP. Thanks! --Gnosis (talk) 15:44, 31 October 2019 (UTC)

@Gnosis: I 'm not an expert on Persian history, but would be delighted to help. I know Nasir al-Din Shah Qajar was notable for how much he travelled Europe, which makes me slightly less hopeful about finding more. I do have a photo of the Ayasofya Mosque during its time as mosque I've been meaning to finish, and a few other things. Oh, and if you want to search David Roberts at loc.gov and gallica.bnf.fr , he did a big series of prints of the Near-East, some of which may be of interest. Happy to help, but I suspect Persian Wiki are the experts here. Adam Cuerden (talk) 16:20, 31 October 2019 (UTC)

Oh, also, if it helps, File:Sébah & Joaillier - Sultan Mehmed VI.jpg, A picture of an Ottoman Sultan, has finally left copyright. The LoC has a lot of Sebah & Joallier's works, you may find something there. Adam Cuerden (talk) 16:25, 31 October 2019 (UTC)

Thank you Adam, prior to this conversation I didn't heard of Sébah & Joaillier. I found the works such as this amazing! I also found a great picture of Persia's King, Ahmad. Thanks for the input and you're doing an amazing work. God bless. --Gnosis (talk) 04:14, 1 November 2019 (UTC)

Important message for file movers

A community discussion has been closed where the consensus was to grant all file movers the suppressredirect user right. This will allow file movers to not leave behind a redirect when moving files and instead automatically have the original file name deleted. Policy never requires you to suppress the redirect, suppression of redirects is entirely optional.

Possible acceptable uses of this ability:

• To move recently uploaded files with an obvious error in the file name where that error would not be a reasonable redirect. For example: moving "Sheep in a tree.jpg" to "Squirrel in a tree.jpg" when the image does in fact depict a squirrel.
• To perform file name swaps.
• When the original file name contains vandalism. (File renaming criterion #5)

Please note, this ability should be used only in certain circumstances and only if you are absolutely sure that it is not going to break the display of the file on any project. Redirects should never be suppressed if the file is in use on any project. When in doubt, leave a redirect. If you forget to suppress the redirect in case of file name vandalism or you are not fully certain if the original file name is actually vandalism, leave a redirect and tag the redirect for speedy deletion per G2.

The malicious or reckless breaking of file links via the suppressredirect user right is considered an abuse of the file mover right and is grounds for immediate revocation of that right. This message serves as both a notice that you have this right and as an official warning. Questions regarding this right should be directed to administrators. --Majora (talk) 21:35, 7 November 2019 (UTC)

Google Code-In 2019 is coming - please mentor some documentation tasks!

Hello,

Google Code-In, Google-organized contest in which the Wikimedia Foundation participates, starts in a few weeks. This contest is about taking high school students into the world of opensource. I'm sending you this message because you recently edited a documentation page at Wikimedia Commons.

I would like to ask you to take part in Google Code-In as a mentor. That would mean to prepare at least one task (it can be documentation related, or something else - the other categories are Code, Design, Quality Assurance and Outreach) for the participants, and help the student to complete it. Please sign up at the contest page and send us your Google account address to google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org, so we can invite you in!

From my own experience, Google Code-In can be fun, you can make several new friends, attract new people to your wiki and make them part of your community.

If you have any questions, please let us know at google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org.

Thank you!

Have No Vote for Parliament, ca. 1907-1918.jpg, in the process losing the unique Flickr photo ID. Having uploaded hundreds of thousands of archive images hosted via Flickr, there is no doubt that the file naming including this unique ID is the default harmonization requirement that applies.

Would you like to move it back, or does there need to be a consensus discussion in order to establish a standard interpretation of COM:FR? Thanks Fæ (talk) 12:46, 10 December 2019 (UTC)

Manet bust

I hope I'm not stepping on your toes by uploading a quick edit of your Manet portrait restoration. If you feel it isn't appropriate, please feel free to revert. Maybe I just don't deal with that specific style of photography enough to understand why one wouldn't use the full dynamic range of a format, so I thought I would explain why I made the edit here. I was careful not to crush the shadows or the highlights, so I thought I would be okay, but I still wanted to let you know my reasoning just to be safe. If you do end up reverting, could you also explain your reasoning? Thanks! Googol30 (talk) 17:51, 16 January 2020 (UTC)

About colorization

Dear Adam, I was researching for a long time information about the costumes and the stage, however, I am not absolutely sure that these were the colors since in each work many things changed despite using the same costumes. However, I considered that it was worth it and I took the risk of doing this colorization in GIMP. At the moment I don't know where that image could be used.

Thank you very much for your comments and the information you added. --Wilfredor (talk) 13:28, 26 August 2020 (UTC)
