Hi. I deleted the redundant Ariane image as requested. BTW, for speedy deletions you can tag images with {{delete}} -- Chris 73 03:14, 12 Nov 2004 (UTC)

Thanks! --Duffman 03:18, 12 Nov 2004 (UTC)

Also: could you add copyright tags to the images you uploaded? For now I have tagged your image as "Unknown". If there are no tags, the image may have to be deleted. One image would be Image:Kiribati location map.png. Thanks -- Chris 73 03:21, 12 Nov 2004 (UTC)

That image was found on en:Category:Country locator maps, which has all country location maps. Most of the maps there have been tagged as GNU Free Documentation License. I don't know if this exact image is an exception. I cannot confirm 100 percent what the copyright is. Which other images have not been tagged? --Duffman 03:35, 12 Nov 2004 (UTC)

See Category:Unknown for the list of images with unknown copyright status. Not sure which ones are from you. I also asked the creator of en:Image:LocationKiribati.png for the tag. BTW, do you know that you can create interwiki links by adding [[en:Image:LocationKiribati.png]] to Image:Kiribati location map.png? -- Chris 73

I couldn't see any other images that I hadn't tagged. How does that interwiki linking work exactly? --Duffman 04:10, 12 Nov 2004 (UTC)

For interwiki links, you link the image/article/category/whatever as you would in the local wiki, except you add the language of the wiki to the front. For example, you have already added interwiki links to your homepage as [[en:User:Duffman]] [[no:Bruker:Duffman]]. Same for images, which would be e.g. [[en:Image:ImageName.jpg]], where ImageName.jpg is the name of the image on the english wiki. -- Chris 73 05:39, 12 Nov 2004 (UTC)

No, that doesn't work, at least not at the Norwegian wikipedia. --Duffman 14:18, 12 Nov 2004 (UTC)

Interwiki to the norwegian wiki works for me, using no: before the link. See my test. However, interwiki links from the other wikis to the commons do not work. -- Chris 73 15:05, 12 Nov 2004 (UTC)

Image:US Air Force F-117 Nighthawk.jpg

You uploaded this image but I uploaded this same image (see Lockheed Martin F-117 Night Hawk). When you upload, can you verify the image doesn't exist (see the planes' articles in Category:Military planes), thanks.
I'm distressed for my bad english.--Dav 59 09:40, 31 Dec 2004 (UTC)

The image I uploaded has a much higher resolution. So don't delete it. --Duffman 20:53, 3 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Red Cross and related images

Hello Duffman, in November 2004 you uploaded the images Red_Cross.png, Red_Crescent.png, Red_Star_of_David.png and Red_Diamond.png. Can you check whether the source from which they come from also has a similar picture of the Red Lion and red Sun, the third recognized protection symbol of the Geneva Conventions? Best Regards, --Uwe 11:57, 24 July 2005 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading Image:The Pentagon US Department of Defense building.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is therefore unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the media on Wikimedia Commons (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then you can use {{GFDL-self}} to release it under the GFDL or {{PD-self}} to release it into the public domain. See Commons:Copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

Aktivitet på Commons

Jeg unnlater å gå nærmere inn på problemene på no:, du er sikkert utrolig lei av hele det akkurat nå. Men jeg håper at du fortsatt kunne tenke deg å være aktiv her på Commons. Det er nok av konflikter her også, men også mange flere til å ta støyten, og dermed mindre fare for å bli plukket ut som den store skurken (i den grad det skjer tror jeg skurkene i stor grad allerede er utpekt). Du har for få bidrag til at det er realistisk med en adminnominasjon nå, men hvis du kunne tenke deg å delta i oversettelsesarbeid, tagging og kategorisering av bilder osv. er det bare et tidsspørsmål. Du er en altfor dyktig person til at Wikimedia bør miste deg fullstendig, og du har opparbeidet mye kunnskap om bilder gjennom arbeidet på no:, så jeg håper virkelig å få deg skikkelig med på laget her. Jeg har en oppfatning av at både Kjetil r og jeg også har ligget på linje med deg i det meste, så jeg tror vi kan jobbe godt sammen. Cnyborg 12:16, 2 October 2006 (UTC)

This media was probably deleted.

A file that you have uploaded to Wikimedia Commons, Image:Pentagon after September 11, 2001, terrorist attack.jpg, was missing information about where it comes from or who created it, which is needed to verify its copyright status. The file probably has been deleted. If you've got all required information, request undeletion providing this information and the link to the concerned file ([[:Image:Pentagon after September 11, 2001, terrorist attack.jpg]]). If you created the content yourself, enter {{Own}} as the source. If you did not add a licensing template, you must add one. You may use, for example, {{self|GFDL|cc-by-sa-all}} or {{Cc-zero}} to release certain rights to your work. If someone else created the content, or if it is based on someone else's work, the source should be the address to the web page where you found it, the name and ISBN of the book you scanned it from, or similar. You should also name the author, provide verifiable information to show that the content is in the public domain or has been published under a free license by its author, and add an appropriate template identifying the public domain or licensing status, if you have not already done so. Warning: Wikimedia Commons takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

Tip: Categorizing images

---

Hello, Duffman~commonswiki!

Tip: Add categories to your files

Thanks a lot for contributing to the Wikimedia Commons! Here's a tip to make your uploads more useful: Why not add some categories to describe them? This will help more people to find and use them.

Here's how:

1) If you're using the UploadWizard, you can add categories to each file when you describe it. Just click "more options" for the file and add the categories which make sense:

2) You can also pick the file from your list of uploads, edit the file description page, and manually add the category code at the end of the page.

[[Category:Category name]]

For example, if you are uploading a diagram showing the orbits of comets, you add the following code:

[[Category:Astronomical diagrams]]

[[Category:Comets]]

This will make the diagram show up in the categories "Astronomical diagrams" and "Comets".

When picking categories, try to choose a specific category ("Astronomical diagrams") over a generic one ("Illustrations").

Thanks again for your uploads! More information about categorization can be found in Commons:Categories, and don't hesitate to leave a note on the help desk.

Please help replace this outdated license

Hello!

Thank you for donating images to the Wikimedia Commons. You have uploaded some images in the past with the license {{PD}}. While this was a license acceptable in the early days of Wikimedia, since January 2006, this license has been deprecated and since October 2008 no new uploads with this license was allowed.

The license on older images should be replaced with a better and more specific license/permissions and you can help by checking the images and adding {{PD-self}} if you are the author or one of the other templates that you can see in the template on the image page.

Thank you for your help. If you need help feel free to ask at Commons talk:Licensing or contact User:Zscout370.

The images we would like you to check are:

Your account will be renamed

Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Duffman. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Duffman~commonswiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours,
Keegan Peterzell
Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation

File source is not properly indicated: File:US Secret Service officers.jpg

This media was probably deleted.

A file that you have uploaded to Wikimedia Commons, File:US Secret Service officers.jpg, was missing information about where it comes from or who created it, which is needed to verify its copyright status. The file probably has been deleted. If you've got all required information, request undeletion providing this information and the link to the concerned file ([[:File:US Secret Service officers.jpg]]). If you created the content yourself, enter {{Own}} as the source. If you did not add a licensing template, you must add one. You may use, for example, {{self|GFDL|cc-by-sa-all}} or {{Cc-zero}} to release certain rights to your work. If someone else created the content, or if it is based on someone else's work, the source should be the address to the web page where you found it, the name and ISBN of the book you scanned it from, or similar. You should also name the author, provide verifiable information to show that the content is in the public domain or has been published under a free license by its author, and add an appropriate template identifying the public domain or licensing status, if you have not already done so. Warning: Wikimedia Commons takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing. Please add the required information for this and other files you have uploaded before adding more files. If you need assistance, please ask at the help desk. Thank you!

File:US Immigration and Customs Enforcement SWAT.jpg has been listed at Commons:Deletion requests so that the community can discuss whether it should be kept or not. We would appreciate it if you could go to voice your opinion about this at its entry. If you created this file, please note that the fact that it has been proposed for deletion does not necessarily mean that we do not value your kind contribution. It simply means that one person believes that there is some specific problem with it, such as a copyright issue. Please see Commons:But it's my own work! for a guide on how to address these issues. Please remember to respond to and – if appropriate – contradict the arguments supporting deletion. Arguments which focus on the nominator will not affect the result of the nomination. Thank you!
