Non-free rational for Secret Adversary First Edition Cover 1922.jpg

Why did you add a non-free rational to File:Secret Adversary First Edition Cover 1922.jpg? I had already put a PD tag on there; as a work from 1922, it's perfectly fine in the US, even if it's not eligible for transferring to Commons.--Prosfilaes (talk) 11:15, 2 January 2012 (UTC)

"Information" template

This is just to let you know, if you add {{Information}} with an empty "Author" field at an image I uploaded, I will be spammed by bots claiming the image is suddenly "unreferenced". --dab (𒁳) 11:47, 3 January 2012 (UTC)

Here's another one: File:Nicholson-Viaduct.JPG

Mis-applying an {{Information}} template and ignoring the source information that was already there in free text, led to a situation that Fastily could then auto-tagged as unsourced for deletion. It's a convoluted technique, but it's another way to get a few of these pesky images deleted.

It is of course far more important that the project has all pages equally formatted with newly-applied {{Information}} templates (until practice changes again in a few years), even if applying this formatting actually damaged the information content of the valid metadata already recorded. Remember, we're here for the observance of those guidelines and the edit counts, not for the content. Andy Dingley (talk) 11:54, 3 January 2012 (UTC)

LMK if you find anymore. BTW I'd strongly suggest someone starts an RFC over the FSII bot, I found a few examples where it seemingly missed obvious sourcing. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 12:02, 3 January 2012 (UTC)

user:FSII seems to have behaved correctly in this case, the starting problem was applying an {{Information}} template and blanking the source field, when it had an obvious source already stated. If an unnecessary edit like that can't be made correctly, it shouldn't be made. The file was valid beforehand, without the template, it is not an improvement to "upgrade" to using the template if this also either breaks the metadata, or (as in this case) is likely to have the content deleted altogether. This is just one image that happened to be caught, because someone else was watching it. How many have had the same template problem added to them, then been auto-deleted silently afterwards?

Besides which, User:FSII claims to be an alternate account, not a 'bot (or at least not a 'bot that is used in this namespace). Andy Dingley (talk) 12:39, 3 January 2012 (UTC)

Are you saying i'm not competent? Sfan00 IMG (talk) 12:41, 3 January 2012 (UTC)

I'm saying that this was clearly not a competent edit. How many like it do you think you've made? Andy Dingley (talk) 12:53, 3 January 2012 (UTC)

I've tried hard not to 'delete' information when trying to upgrade stuff to using {{Information}}, but given the number of edits made, I can't determine an exact error rate. In respect of the Viaduct image you mention, I'm now checking that contributors uploads for a similar situation. In my opinion when I filled out the information, the link between the author name and uploader name wasn't obvious to me, and I've had admins yell at me in the past for putting in 'assumed' sources, Perhaps ypu should have a word with the admins about that ? Sfan00 IMG (talk) 12:57, 3 January 2012 (UTC)

You should have interpreted the "By" claim as either valid or invalid (a judgment call, as you note, but not the matter at issue here), then treated it as either a sourced image and recorded the source, or else as an unsourced image and tagged it immediately for deletion. As happened here, it was instead bundled into the description. That's clearly wrong (the subject was not the photographer) - it looks like the free-text parser you used to generate the template just wasn't up to the job of parsing such unstructured descriptions. That's no surprise - it's a hard problem.

I can't see any justification for converting free-text metadata into an {{Information}} template with mandatory fields left blank. Those become images that are then exposed to invisible 'bot erosion and deletion, as indeed happened here. If the {{Information}} can't be filled out fully immediately, that should be raised immediately as an issue (possibly for deletion) when at least there's some hope of human intervention. Leaving templates around with mandatory fields left blank is just asking the 'bots to delete them by default. Andy Dingley (talk) 13:29, 3 January 2012 (UTC)

The documentation for information doesn't make it clear that 'source' is mandatory. Also as you previously raised an RFCU , the issue of CSD 'masscare' tagging for missing sources isn't uncontroversial. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 14:24, 3 January 2012 (UTC)

If "source" really isn't mandatory (and as someone with vast numbers of CSDs, I'd expect you to know more about this than I do), then that's a clear, separate, issue with either FSII's behaviour or else the interpretation of the tag it added. {{di-no source}} is pretty clear that lack of "source" is a route to rapid automatic deletion.

Also, part of the reason for adding 'information' rather than an outright CSD tag, is because sometimes other image patrollers

find things I've missed. If you'd prefer 'massacre' CSD tagging LMK Sfan00 IMG (talk) 14:30, 3 January 2012 (UTC)

Of course I'm not advocating adding CSD to images that don't warrant it

My point above is that any process of parsing free text metadata into a template should at least be rational and logically consistent. The text should be parsed and judged as either "adequate" or "inadequate", then any tagging that is necessary can be identified at that point and added at that point. If this can't be done cleanly for an image, then processing that image should be abandoned and no change should be made to that image - it's just too hard to do that one simply, so keep working on those that are.

We already know that free-text metadata is a problem, because it's not clear, and certainly not clear to dumb bots, whether it meets minimal requirements. For this reason, we don't run the dumb bots over such images, only if they have structured metadata that we accept can be either automatically assessed by dumb bots, or else is reasonable to tag for deletion. The template replacement process you're using here moves images from an "Unassessed, but not trivially taggable" state to potentially an "Unassessed, but now appearing to be bot-processable" state. Your change isn't changing much about the degree of sourcing, but it is moving images from the "too difficult to judge automatically" group to the "If a dumb bot doesn't like it, delete it" group. This is a risky process and should only be done if it is both useful, and adequately safe.

The business value that we gain by adding {{information}} templates is marginal at best. The risk of doing it increases significantly, if it also changes the image's status for then being judged by dumb bots. Andy Dingley (talk) 15:24, 3 January 2012 (UTC)

I've been reviewing the information additions, so far other than the one you mention above where it wasn't perhaps as clear

as it could be, I've not found uploads where information got lost. As you queried though, some images were given a slightly more in depth review, which meant a few that would otherwise have been 'robo-nuked' did ened up with enough information to enable them to be moved over to Commons (which is a good thing).

I don't consider my comment about massacre CSD tagging an attack, because it was not intended to be one. It was merely a statement of frustration, I'm sorry if you misread it. Previously, I would have CSD tagged images without a source, but others ( perhaps including yourself) asked me to back off on this in respect of older uploads, hence the approach of adding {[tl|information}} in the hope that by putting the images in process and leaving authorship requests on uploader talk page, some of the sourcing issues could be resolved. It's a shame that what was intended as a compromise position is know also seen as problematic. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 15:37, 3 January 2012 (UTC)

The CSD and sourcing issue is a different one. We need (project can't work without it) a clear policy that says whether source is needed, not needed, or needed under some circumstances. Then we apply that policy. Any argument afterwards really comes down to respect for consensus, which I'm happy to grant.

As to what this policy should be, then IMHO this does depend on context. We need source where a different source could affect licensing issues. Images clearly old enough to be PD-old for any author don't need to show who that author was, and what their death date was. We do not need source if it doesn't affect licensing. No-one should care about source (to the level of deletion) unless licensing is also affected by it. Andy Dingley (talk) 15:57, 3 January 2012 (UTC)

No doubt you were trying to be helpful, but as we've discussed before and as others have commented above, if you can't fill in the author and source fields, it's better just to not add the information template because that just causes more problems. So are we agreed to stop doing that? postdlf (talk) 15:46, 3 January 2012 (UTC)

I'm not going to stop adding 'information' where I feel it's justified to do so. I'd rather not have to mark images lacking an obvious source as CSD's though.. Perhaps you and Andy could come up with a workable solution (like you did with the photos of art issue previously), I.E A template that keeps the dumb bots happy, but could be used to 'defer' a decison to someone more competent? Sfan00 IMG (talk) 15:53, 3 January 2012 (UTC)

I would say it's clearly not "justified" to add the template where you don't know how to fill in the author and source fields. postdlf (talk) 15:56, 3 January 2012 (UTC)

Would love some help from an "experienced editor"!

There's an image I uploaded (article: Ben Deily), that now bears this disclaimer:

"This image may not have the proper copyright or licensing information. An experienced editor should contact the uploader and add the proper tag, or discuss the issue on the talk page. If the image has no source, add {{di-no source|date=20 January 2012}}. If the image has no licensing information, add {{di-no license|date=20 January 2012}}. If the image may be non-free, please list at Wikipedia:Possibly unfree images."

I own the image, and had tried to express that I was licensing it under Creative Commons...but I'm WAAAY out of my wikipedia depth here. Any notion of how it should be tagged to address the message above? Grateful for any help/advice! :-) Withnail68 (talk) 18:09, 20 January 2012 (UTC)

I would like your help for you to teach me the correct manner on how to edit pictures on wikidia please tell me what is the right licence to use when adding a picture about living people,DVD or Book cover so it will not be deleted is there a simple lay out to follow so this can be done? Because I don't want anymore of my picture to be deleted.

Here is what I did with File:Greatest Tank Battles.jpg is this what you want from now on to prevent any more picture being deleted?

Paulmcanders (talk) 17:43, 27 January 2012 (UTC)

Good! So does this mean that it won't be deleted and if I do it to the others they will not be deleted as well? Another thing what should I do about pictures involving living people? What is the procedure for adding a picture about them?

Paulmcanders (talk) 19:32, 27 January 2012 (UTC)

May you please explain to me how I will be able to upload picture to wikipedia commons without them being deleted afterwards?

File:Old Dutch.gif

Hi, I've been offline for a few weeks. Apparently you tagged this very old image (public domain from the 1910's) that I'd uploaded several years ago as missing authorship information. My recollection is that the file had plenty of information as to source, but the page has since been deleted. The authorship, was obviously the Old Dutch Cleanser company, as it was from an advertisement put out by that company. It also included information about the current owner of the Old Dutch trademarks, but I no longer have it handy. I no longer have the time or inclination to mess with recreating the information that was there or do anything to make it clearer, and in any event no longer have the image to re-upload it. But if you get the page restored, I'll see if there's something I can do to fix it. Otherwise, I hope you will hunt up a replacement for the image of the Old Dutch logo so that it will remain in the encyclopedia to improve the article on "Dutch cap." Thanks.

Trains WP; No Image plaque

File:Project Trains no image.png is just a generic outline of an old locomotive and tender. How can this possibly be a copyright violation? ----DanTD (talk) 14:33, 7 February 2012 (UTC)

(talk page stalker) It wasn't deleted as a copyright violation, it was deleted because apparently no sourcing information was provided. Sven Manguard Wha? 14:44, 8 February 2012 (UTC)

The problem was that a new user removed {{PD-self}} and thereby leaving the file without a license. If a file from 2007 suddenly have no license I think you should check file history to see if a license was ever there. --MGA73 (talk) 13:10, 13 February 2012 (UTC)

{{PD-art}}

I noticed that you made this change. Note that Commons doesn't care about the copyright in the country of origin (see commons:COM:L#Interaction of United States copyright law and non-US copyright law under "Exception" and commons:Template:PD-Art), so moving that image to Commons is fine. However, users located in countries where it is copyrighted should maybe not move it themselves since they could face legal action. --Stefan2 (talk) 22:54, 9 February 2012 (UTC)

Image licensing

Hi, I know the copyright problems, but I'm not sure what template to use. The link here allows you to use it as a wallpaper, so it should be usable, shouldn't it? None of the licensing templates seem to fit it, so I'm not sure where to go from here. WP Randomno (talk) 12:42, 17 February 2012 (UTC)

As you did not reply, the file has already been deleted. I'm quite sure the it is the equivilent of this, but I am unsure which template that is on Wikipedia. Even if you recieve many image licensing questions, you could at least quickly write a link to a page which has further help and links to templates.

I hope you will reply, |Randomno| WP 10:27, 12 April 2012 (UTC)

It turns out a link was provided in the warning, actually. I don't really need that file any more, so in fact you don't need to reply. Thanks, |Randomno| WP 18:01, 14 April 2012 (UTC)

Re-tagging GIF

Hi, please see this image history. You agreed in October [1] that If there's no PNG original, then feel free to remove the tag, but please leave a note on the description so it doesn't get tagged by someone else. I did that but you still re-tagged it yourself, overlooking the note in the "Other" field. Please join the discussion at User talk:Fayenatic london#Speedy deletion nomination of Template:Good GIF. – Fayenatic L (talk) 14:43, 20 February 2012 (UTC)

Circumstances can change. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 14:46, 20 February 2012 (UTC)

Sure they can, so please point me to what's changed, because there's been no change at Wikipedia:Preparing images for upload and I haven't been following anything else that's relevant. I'm not pursuing this just for myself, but for newbies who won't understand the policy, especially if template messages don't fit the circumstances. File:YesAsia logo.gif is a 3KB file; how much more efficient or accurate would a vector image be? – Fayenatic L (talk) 15:00, 20 February 2012 (UTC)

I was following the reasoning in the TfD, previously I would have left the images alone. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 15:07, 20 February 2012 (UTC)

I'm trying to understand & update the wording within some of these templates, and the documentation on their pages, so that image newbies like me can more easily get the right point... Template:Should be PNG has a documentation page which currently says that this template should be used for GIFs that have lost colour depth, but not for size reduction. For GIFs downloaded directly from websites, e.g. File:YesAsia logo.gif, which have no loss of colour depth, it therefore seems that this the wrong template, and Template:Bad GIF would be more appropriate; do you agree? (Another editor agreed in the discussion on my talk page.) Alternatively, perhaps the template description could be made less prescriptive. – Fayenatic L (talk) 21:37, 20 February 2012 (UTC)

In the absence of further reply, I have changed the tag. I also deleted the "other information" which I had entered after our discussion in October. – Fayenatic L (talk) 13:38, 23 February 2012 (UTC)

List of NCAA football programs at catholic colleges

Hi Sfan00 IMG. You added added unreferenced tag to article List of NCAA football programs at catholic colleges. I wrote the article by going through the existing articles:

• List of NCAA Division I FBS football programs
• List of NCAA Division I FCS football programs
• List of NCAA Division II football programs
• List of NCAA Division III football programs

and checking the schools's affiliation. The purpose of adding references is to directly support the information in an article. That can be done because every entry has a wikilink where to confirm if the school is catholic, and where their football program competes (as in those 4 lists I used, where reflist is only used in introductory paragraph).

I received this message, "Thanks for uploading File:Henry and the Clubhouse cover.jpg.

After I downloaded that image and used it I got a message about it, saying things I didn't understand and didn't know how to fix. So I went back and downloaded a different image and replaced the first one. I didn't know I should remove the first one, and I don't know how to do that anyway.

your automatic tagging

I see no reason for you to go rampaging about tagging every single image article that doesn't have certain information on it. The cover of an issue of Spiderham has been on Wikipedia for six and a half years, and the cover for Ultima X Odyssey has been around for 5 and a half years. The purpose of nominating something for deletion is because you don't believe it meets the requirements for inclusion for Wikipedia, not because it was uploaded at a time before they asked for fair usage rational. You are not helping the Wikipedia by doing this. Please take a moment to actually look at the images before tagging them for deletion. If its clearly the cover art for a comic, book, film, album, game, or whatnot, then obviously its allowed, no need to bother it. Dream Focus 14:25, 25 May 2012 (UTC)

In the time it took you to complain you could have added the required infromation. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 14:32, 25 May 2012 (UTC)

Not every single image out there has someone still around to notice. Thus many things may get deleted that shouldn't be. And these things are all just copy and paste rational for the same sort of things. Dream Focus 14:36, 25 May 2012 (UTC)

So you oppose having CSD ? Please submit an alternative proposal that works :) Sfan00 IMG (talk) 14:37, 25 May 2012 (UTC)

I did. You actually LOOK at the thing before trying to prod it, and then copy and paste the default rational on it. That way you can help Wikipedia, instead of trying to deleting things that obviously should be here. Dream Focus 14:40, 25 May 2012 (UTC)

You are implying that the CSD criteria are not objective then ? Sfan00 IMG (talk) 14:41, 25 May 2012 (UTC)

Anything can be misused. See WP:Bureaucracy Dream Focus 14:53, 25 May 2012 (UTC)

I think that Dream Focus is suggesting that you spend a few seconds to add the rationale instead of just tagging the files. At least for files where it is easy to add one.

It would be possible to use a bot to tag all files on Wikipedia:Database reports/Non-free files missing a rationale. But I agree that it would be better to add a rationale than just to tag the files. An alternative approach would be to add uploader to the list so we could add a list of all files uploaded by (active) user x in one edit. --MGA73 (talk) 15:48, 25 May 2012 (UTC)

Eurogendfor, again

Hi there, I was forced to rollback again [3], to me the file proposed, as stated before, is totally different from the original one, and as per WP:OR I've replaced that image with a non-free rationale image that is the exact badge used by the Eurogendfor. Wikipedia policies allows the use of this kind of files, that badge is a distinctive symbol of an organization, not some family coat of arms which should be presented as somebody want in heraldry. For this reasons I've reverted the page with the previous file. --Nicola Romani (talk) 04:33, 28 May 2012 (UTC)

Ciao! please have a look here [4], the user violate the Wikipedia:Edit warring#The three-revert rule, probably (I suppose) he asked the deletion of that badge after his 3rd edit, orphaning the image. As stated before, the logo proposed by that user is completely different (see the sources of the deleted image) and he knows it, for this reasons it fall under WP:OR, I'm here to ask you to restore the deleted image, protecting the page by further edit wars.

Secondly, I'm not adding any images, so I don't understand the second part of your comment. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 15:57, 29 May 2012 (UTC)

Hi,
Please delete the file [[File:Zomato-logo.png]], as it is not being used in any article anymore. A new and a better version of the logo is being used in the article Zomato.
Thanks,

Adding non-free licences

I've seen edits like this on several occasions and wonder what your thinking is. By removing the "no licence" tag and replacing it with a non-free licence but failing to add a fair-use rational means that someone else must come back to the image and tag it as missing the WP:FURG. In my opinion your edit is unproductive as whole. It would be better, if you want to add a non-free licence that you also add the missing rational tag at the same time. If you did that I, or another editor, would not have to return to the image to retag it a second time. Please consider this option in terms of productivity overall.

A kitten for you!

Thank you for your edits to the Shorne page. I should have done this myself. I am aware of some of the shortcomings in the item and will address them as time permits. Meanwhile, I would value any other observations you care to make.

Just so you know I only used that word because that's how they described it rather than me trying to make some odd political point! :-) --Cameron Scott (talk) 18:58, 14 June 2012 (UTC)

Noted, Do you have a direct cite for it, such as in the Channel 4 website items? Sfan00 IMG (talk) 18:59, 14 June 2012 (UTC)

Ah , Thanks... If it was a direct quote, I can see why you thought it was relevant. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 19:30, 14 June 2012 (UTC)

Right but as you say, given recent events in the UK might be best to avoid it. --Cameron Scott (talk) 19:56, 14 June 2012 (UTC)
