schilderijen van UB Leiden[edit]

Hallo Maarten,

Ik heb vandaag uit de beeldbank van de UB Leiden (http://digitalcollections.universiteitleiden.nl) een selectie gemaakt van schilderijen die vrij downloadbaar zijn voor het project Sum of all Paintings. Het zijn 279 records met de volgende variabelen: item, label, shelfmark, materiaal (=schilderij), handle. Als je mij je email stuurt, kan ik het spreadsheet opsturen. Kan je daarmee de images toevoegen aan wikimedia commons?

Wil je ze dan, behalve in Sum of all Paintings, ook toevoegen aan een categorie "Paintings" in "Category:Collections of Leiden University Library".

Een stukje uit het bestand:

itemnr Label handle
item:1581995 Portret van Stephanus Marchant\, hoogleraar Rechtsgeleerdheid te Leiden Icones 101 http://hdl.handle.net/1887.1/item:1581995
item:1582018 Portret van Lucas Schacht\, hoogleraar Geneeskunde te Leiden Icones 103 http://hdl.handle.net/1887.1/item:1582018

Als je de link met de handle in een browser plakt, zie je een pagina van een portret met metadata. Onder de downloadknop met het pijltje zit een medium sized JPGEG. De link voor downloaden van de JPG die hoort bij het eerste item:1581995 is http://digitalcollections.universiteitleiden.nl//view/item/1581995/datastream/JPG/download.

De hoogleraren op deze portretten zijn allen waarschijnlijk als persoon al opgenomen in wikidata. Zou je die portretten ook nog aan de hoogleraren kunnen koppelen?

Ik heb wel je Wikimedia Usernaam, maar niet je email adres. Mijn mail adres is e.m.van.wijk@library.leidenuniv.nl.

Quadro di Rubens[edit]

Ciao, spero sia il posto giusto dove fatto questa domanda, in caso errato scusami e indicami come dialogare con te Ti contatto per il dipinto "Circoncisione" di Rubens che, se non sbaglio, hai inserito in WikiMedia https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Circoncisione_di_Gesù_-_Rubens.jpg

Quella foto l'ho fatta io nel 1998 quando facevo il fotografo di Arte e Architettura (ovviamente ho l'originale) Vorrei potermela attribuire ma non so come farlo, se non caricandola tra le mie e poi inserendola in Wikipedia

Puoi darmi indicazioni? grazie michele

bad bot edit[edit]

This bot edit is wrong and so is this. I can correct it and possibly others but I am afraid that the bot will just rediscover missing statement and will re-add it. Is it safe to undo? --Jarekt (talk) 22:38, 14 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Jarekt: first one is caused by this edit. You can correct it, bot only works on missing statements.
The second edit was just the copy of digital representation of (P6243) so it can be cleaned up. I guess you found it in Category:Artworks digital representation of not a work of art? The nested template will probably trigger this again, but I'm not sure because that is not my robot. Better to create the missing item to be sure. Multichill (talk) 18:31, 15 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I was cleaning Category:Artworks with wrong Wikidata item which sounds similar to Category:Artworks digital representation of not a work of art. I am a bit confused by File:Andrés_Manuel_del_Río_(Rafael_Ximeno_y_Planes_1825)_retrato.png how is that one connecting to wikidata, but File:Julio Romero de Torres (1928) José Félix Huerta Calopa.png is not?

PDM[edit]

When we use Creative Commons Public Domain Mark (Q7257361) in copyright license (P275), like this, it creates a constraint violation, because the property (rightfully) thinks public domain works should not have copyright licenses. And yet, I've found no where better to add PDM, if the data source is using it and we would like to reflect that. Do you have any better ideas about how we should do this? (I'm not the only one, there's over 2000 files using it in that property, including WMSE uploads). If there is not a better way, should we just allow it in the property constraints? Dominic (talk) 17:29, 22 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Dominic: that usage is incorrect. The public domain mark is not a license so should never be used in copyright license (P275). Please remove. Multichill (talk) 23:03, 23 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks, I would like to remove it! I was trying to figure out the ideal way to do this, so I know what to replace it with. Just having x copyright status (P6216) public domain (Q19652) seems insufficient, if a source has applied PDM themselves, and we should represent that somewhere as well. Dominic (talk) 19:06, 25 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Dominic: we have many reasons why something is public domain, see Category:PD license tags.
In structured data the basic statement some file copyright status (P6216) public domain (Q19652) should have one or more determination method (P459) qualifiers. That should contain the real reason why we think it's public domein (for example due to age or US government work). I'm a bit reluctant to put the PDM reason in there because that would be {{Public domain}} all over again.
What about using statement supported by (P3680)? Something like "GLAM source added the PDM"? Multichill (talk) 18:26, 26 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I agree that PDM is not the reason, as you say, just the mark. And I'm already using a different determination method anyway. Using something else as a qualifier to the P275 statement would be fine with me.
I like P3680, but it appears from the scope that the values of that property are intended to be the entity making the statement (i.e., the institution), rather than the reason for it. Maybe criterion used (P1013) is more like what you are suggesting?
Here's another idea: using identity of object in context (P4626), and then maybe we can simply use Creative Commons Public Domain Mark (Q7257361) in the value, instead of creating a new "GLAM source added the PDM" item. What would you think of that? The reference provided is still the source for the context. Dominic (talk) 15:44, 27 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Participation in a virtual session for Wikimedians and Researchers?[edit]

Hey Multichill, we are organizing this session to bring together Wikimedians and researchers who work in a multilingual and multi-modal (e.g., text and images) setting, and I was wondering whether you could participate in the session? It's less than an hour on April 29, 2022. More information is here: [3], the workshop is described here: meta:Wiki-M3L. If you are interested, could you send me a mail to lucie.kaffee[@]gmail.com?

Geograph uploads, descriptions, structured data and "mills"[edit]

First of all, thank you for uploading files from geograph.or.uk with your bot. There are a few issues, however. For one, I wish you'd include the descriptions of the files, as these often contain valuable information that helps with finer categorisation. Another are the keywords ("Depicts") in the structured data that are added to the files, or rather one of these words. It seems that whenever the word "mill" appears in the file name, the keyword "molinology" appears in the data, and in many cases this is just plain odd and often wrong - it is well known that in England "mill" is frequently used as a synonym for "factory", probably because early factories were powered by water wheels, but most of them aren't mills in the proper sense. I am not sure how this fluidity in terms should be addressed, but at any rate, it should. --Schlosser67 (talk) 07:46, 6 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Description often contains too much irrelevant text. I had a look at it several times and always concluded that it shouldn't be included on Commons.
Mapping of tags to items is done at User:GeographBot/Tags. Looking at current usage it seems to be a mix of windmill (Q38720), watermill (Q185187) & factory (Q83405) (aka mill) which are all subclass of industrial building (Q12144897) so I changed the mapping to that. Multichill (talk) 21:10, 7 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Concerning mills: Thank you, this is probably the best that can be done at the moment, considering that the geograph tags aren't well defined, either. Concerning the descriptions, I don't quite agree. There are many that are fairly irrelevant and/or wordy, so much is true, but there are more that actually add information which helps to locate and interpret the image, in particular when the image title is very generic (such as "Ordnance Survey Cut Mark" or "M6 motorway"). I have usually found the useful bit of information at the beginning of the descriptions. Maybe limit the number of characters? --Schlosser67 (talk) 11:56, 8 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Perl Harbor[edit]

Please correct description of the file below: "File:US Navy 040702-N-4304S-136 Warships from several nations sit pierside at Naval Station Pearl Harbor, Hawaii.jpg" from: "Warships from several nations sit pierside at Naval" to eg: "Warships of several nations dock on either side of the Naval" The filename should be corrected as well. Regards Alice — Preceding unsigned comment was added by 37.225.78.239 (talk) 14:23, 7 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The filename File:US Navy 040702-N-4304S-136 Warships from several nations sit pierside at Naval Station Pearl Harbor, Hawaii.jpg is good enough. We generally keep file names stable.
Description is from the navy website. Multichill (talk) 14:57, 30 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Dina Bélanger Help please.[edit]

Hello,

My request is about the category "Category:Dina Bélanger" .

I have imported 1 file yesterday, and 6 today, but now, when I click on "Wiki Commons" in the Dina Bélanger articles of the French and English wiki, only one file is displayed ( this one: File:Dina Bélanger (1897-1929) en 1922.pdf: Revision history) but not the others (for example this one: File:Dina Bélanger (1897-1929) en 1917.jpg: Revision history ).

What should I do to fix this and what is the problem? Have I made a mistake? Can you please help me?

Thanks in advance for your kind help. Contributeur2019 (talk) 13:46, 30 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Since I wrote to you a few minutes ago, the problem seems to have been resolved. What happened in the meantime? Tks. Contributeur2019 (talk) 13:54, 30 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I have no idea. Commons:Help desk might be a more suitable place than my talk page to ask this question. I do notice that the files in Category:Dina Bélanger have questionable copyright tagging. How can it be both PD-old & CC0 with an unknown author? Multichill (talk) 14:54, 30 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Tks for your reply. No need to contact C:HD as now all seems to be ok. Concerning copyright tagging you're right, no need of CCO. I will correct. Tks again and sorry for disturbing. Contributeur2019 (talk) 10:12, 1 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Multichill. As you operate GeographBot, will you have time to make it upload the John Spence Community High School image from https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/4043149 (CC BY-SA 2.0) ? This is to illustrate the article. --Oroborvs (talk) 13:27, 7 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Oroborvs: the bot will eventually upload that image, but that might take a while. You might want to try https://geograph2commons.toolforge.org/ if you don't want to wait. Multichill (talk) 13:57, 7 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Skip problematic files[edit]

hi! might it be a good idea if your bot would skip files like File:Sultan Baba.jpg that are tagged with any delete/SD/nsd/npd... templates? RZuo (talk) 06:38, 14 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@RZuo: I recall looking into that, but deletion requests sometimes take forever. The bot ends up running over the same file multiple times a day for as long as the deletion request is open. It's easier to just process it. Multichill (talk) 20:34, 16 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Geograph from structured data[edit]

Hi Multichill, I need some help please. Can you tell me why I cannot edit an image with {{Geograph from structured data}} on it. For instance, I cropped File:Araf-Slow on the B4302 - geograph.org.uk - 2395618.jpg to File:Araf-Slow on the B4302 - geograph.org.uk - 2395618 (cropped).jpg, but I cannot add a description etc etc. Thank you. SethWhales talk 08:55, 15 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Seth Whales: Look at the structured data tab on each file. Here you can edit it. I'm currently not aware of an easy way to copy over all data from one file to another. Multichill (talk) 20:32, 16 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

to-be-deleted files from Beeldcollectie van het Historisch Archief Haarlemmermeer te Hoofddorp[edit]

Hi Multichill, only as a reassurance before I start deleting, with the approx. 1600 files you marked for quick deletion, such as File:12 foto's van de ouderenwoningen De Beemsterborg aan de Beemsterstraat in Hoofddorp, Inventarisnummer NL-HlmNHA Hmr 03134.JPG, the deletion is uncontroversial? --Túrelio (talk) 12:21, 16 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Túrelio: let's double check if user:Vysotsky agrees. Multichill (talk) 20:13, 16 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I checked 15 files, such as this one. All licenses of the images in the Beeldcollectie van het Historisch Archief Haarlemmermeer te Hoofddorp were changed at the archive since the uploads by User:Mr.Nostalgic to Commons. So I won't object against these speedy removals, except for one category (for one of these files I have sent a request to the archive a week or so ago): the municipal maps, such as this one. I expect the Municipality of Hoofddorp owns copyright of these maps, but I am not sure yet. Do you want me to challenge these 54 speedies seperately? Vysotsky (talk) 20:37, 16 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Vysotsky: just rollback the bot edits on the files you think that can be saved. Bots don't have feelings and don't care about that. Multichill (talk) 20:43, 16 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hundreds of wrong speedy deletion tags[edit]

Hi, Your bot tagged hundreds of old images with a speedy deletion tag (e.g. File:Loods Oude Spaarneweg, Inventarisnummer NL-HlmNHA Hmr 07033.JPG). This is not OK. Could you please revert that, and create a regular DR instead. Thanks, Yann (talk) 10:05, 21 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

It's a bit more complicated, as the Noord-Hollands Archief changed the license last year, see this discussion. We were already working on it. No prob, I was planning to look at each file anyway. Vysotsky (talk) 21:03, 21 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Yann: I'm afraid you made it worse. None of the files in Category:Beeldcollectie van het Historisch Archief Haarlemmermeer te Hoofddorp have a valid CC0 release as you can read on Commons:Deletion requests/Category:Beeldcollectie van het Historisch Archief Haarlemmermeer te Hoofddorp. So basically all files should be deleted as missing permission.
Every file was placed in Category:Historisch Archief Haarlemmermeer (license check) to be able to safe some of them. I just tagged the easy ones for speedy deletion so that no human has to check these all by hand. Because you removed the speedy deletion tag you broke this system. Multichill (talk) 14:50, 23 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
The remaining 769 files in the Category:Historisch Archief Haarlemmermeer (license check) will be checked manually. Vysotsky (talk) 15:09, 23 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
It doesn't make sense. If these files are admissible for speedy deletion, you can delete them right away instead of tagging them. If you tag them for SD but don't delete them, it means another admin has to check them if the tag is OK or not. Doing that for 700+ files is not really possible seeing the manpower and time available. If a review is needed, then a DR is the way to go. Regards, Yann (talk) 18:27, 23 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
To give an example from this collection: why would we delete a rare photograph of a departure hall of an airport in 1934 if the license is OK? (I corrected the link & the license to match the source and added a category just a minute ago). All other ways of handling these files would cost more time without the possibility to keep hundreds of these files in Commons. Vysotsky (talk) 19:10, 23 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Note that I don't oppose deletion, only the procedure. And strictly speaking, these are not obvious copyright violations, so not eligible for SD. Regards, Yann (talk) 07:37, 24 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Category:INaturalist images missing SDC depicts may need a poke[edit]

We, birds from Sumba, do have a depicts (P180) statement.

Hello Multichill, I see that you created Category:INaturalist images missing SDC depicts. I have recently added depicts (P180) statements to many of these files, but they keep showing up in the category (although the category itself doesn't appear with the individual files anymore (example), which I find interesting. Could you perhaps take a look what's going on here? Thanks :-) Spinster (talk) 17:53, 1 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Spinster: nice, it's finally populated. I was planning to at some point to run a bot on these based on the data in iNaturalist. I see you're doing just that. Great!
Probably is that SDC edits don't trigger a complete new page render. So your addition doesn't trigger a template update and no category update either. Pretty sure we have a bug open for that, but I stopped paying attention to most of these a long time ago. All my bots do a dummy edit to the page to trigger an update. You should probably have OpenRefine do the same. Multichill (talk) 19:25, 1 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks, @Multichill, I am enlightened. We are dealing with this Phabricator ticket here. I have responded there and we now also have a GitHub issue to look at it from the OpenRefine side. As more batch tools and bots trigger this problem, IMO it's best that it's eventually fixed on the Commons side though ;-) Spinster (talk) 17:00, 3 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Spinster: , I do a lot of category refreshing as well. My favorite way to deal with it is to run https://hub.paws.wmcloud.org open a terminal and run pwb.py touch -cat:Artworks_with_Wikidata_item:_quick_statements to refresh all the files in Category:Artworks with Wikidata item: quick statements. --Jarekt (talk) 03:08, 4 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Ahh, thanks @Jarekt, I will add that one to my ever-expanding box of tricks :D Spinster (talk) 06:35, 4 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

iNat pictures[edit]

Hoi Multichill, vond dit ook wel grappig: [4]. De puntjes buiten het verspreidingsgebied roepen wel wat vragen op.... maar wijkt niet veel af van de data op GBIF. Nog over de bulk upload. Ik ben zeker ook zeker geen tegenstander. Er zitten dus wel wat onscherpe foto's tussen. Zou mooi zijn als we die eruit halen door de scharpness oid van een foto uit te rekenen? 4 miljoen observaties x 1 Mb = 4 Tb = best veel data. Het merendeel van het materiaal is vast prachtig. Als mensen meerdere foto's per observatie uploaden is de eerste foto doorgaans het beste. De default instelling van iNaturalist is trouwens geen vrije licentie. Er zullen vast meer gebruikers zijn die hun foto's vrij willen maken. Geen idee of dat makkelijk kan voor alle foto's. Rudolphous (talk) 06:33, 6 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

cancel automatic geolocalisation[edit]

Hi,

I think it's an error to automatically geolocalise files in structured data with this bot. By doing so, ou have exposed the localisation of my private home.
I know that the information was already there, but the bot make it a lot easier to find. - Simon Villeneuve 11:16, 10 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

No, the error is you adding coordinates you don't want to share. You exposed your location, not the robot(s). You adding coordinates triggers the indexing. Have a look at Special:Nearby.
Just be careful, don't try to blame your mistakes on someone else and you can ask an admin to delete any revisions containing private information. So no, I'm not going to disable this bot. Multichill (talk) 15:16, 10 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

Hello,

I am messaging you because a contest for a sound logo for Wikimedia is being developed and your opinion as a Wikimedia Commons admin is appreciated. My team would like to know if it is possible for the top finalist sound logos in the contest to have attribution temporarily hidden from public view until all the votes are final? The idea is to let the public judge the sound logo contestants based on the merit of the logo, not the person or people who made it. Again, any feedback is appreciated.

Thank you,

VGrigas (WMF) (talk) 18:04, 17 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Victor just ask participants to submit entries with a {{CC0}} license only. That way attribution is not mandatory and the logo can be used without having to link it every time (which is quite needed for a logo anyway). Multichill (talk) 18:08, 17 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
