Monozygotic

The caption in File:Identical-fraternal-sperm-egg.svg is wrong, it should say "monozygotic" where it currently says "monoxygotic". Gabbe (talk) 22:54, 25 June 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for the heads up. I don't know how I missed that. Trlkly (talk) 04:01, 26 June 2010 (UTC)

File renaming

I've moved File:KB Hungary.svg as you requested however I'd just thought I'd let you know a bot (CommonsDelinker) processes the renaming of files across all wikis. At the moment there is quite a backlog of images for it to go through so if you want to do it yourself, go right ahead. Regards Themeparkgc  Talk  07:37, 3 May 2011 (UTC)

I would, but I didn't realize that the wick list wouldn't be saved. Is there another way to check which projects used the old filename? Trlkly (talk) 07:47, 3 May 2011 (UTC)

This should be what you are looking for. Basically because all of the other wikis link to the old filename the usage list remains attached to it and therefore does not move to the new filename. Themeparkgc  Talk  08:13, 3 May 2011 (UTC)

Your statement

Your statement here is inappropriate. The two people arguing for the image have no background in copyright and have misstated things about the cases. Furthermore, the only case law they have used regards a smooth, blue bottle with simple gold font, and the case made it clear that they did not declare if Skyy had the right to copyright the look but only that a person who took a later image could not prevent Skyy from licensing others from taking pictures of the bottle. The case was also not infront of the Supreme Court so does not have the ability to determine precise Constitutional precedence, especially when a later case declared that minor alterations to common items can be copyrightable. At no time can the picture of the man be said to be copyrightable, which Dcoetzee points out. Dcoetzee is a long term admin with a strong background in copyright.

I've opened Commons:Administrators'_noticeboard/User_problems#User:Ottava_Rima as a partial response to this.--Prosfilaes (talk) 22:52, 11 October 2011 (UTC)

Yes, as proof that you will go to no ends to further this disruption and false claims about the law. Ottava Rima (talk) 00:08, 12 October 2011 (UTC)

Do not respond to me on my talk page because you do not like what I said in the deletion request. Discuss it there, where the interested parties can still argue with you.

As far as I am concerned, my argument is sound. Expertise is irrelevant on Wikimedia. All that matters is whether or not you have a valid source backing your argument. From my reading up to that point, you did not. And if you are so sure I'm wrong, you can prove it there, rather than trying to get me to recant. I will not recant unless you provide a citation to the relevant case law by which you make your arguments. Trlkly (talk) 04:30, 12 October 2011 (UTC)

Which aspect do I not have a source for? I already pointed out that Satava v Lowry made it clear even "natural" objects, if they have some unique feature, can be copyrightable. Ottava Rima (talk) 14:08, 12 October 2011 (UTC)

Tip: Categorizing images

---

Hello, Trlkly!

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.

File:Function x^2.svg

"DOCTYPE" can only be considered bad if you completely ignore SGML, which the codifiers of the SVG standard did not do, since they include a DTD definition of SVG in the very first appendix ("Appendix A") of the SVG standard. In any case, there are probably at least tens of thousands of SVG files on Commons with DOCTYPE declarations, and I don't know that I found your "cleanup" of File:Function x^2.svg to be overall too impressive... AnonMoos (talk) 04:29, 20 December 2012 (UTC)

I didn't do any actual "cleanup," I reduced filesize by eliminating a useless declaration. I don't plan on going through and fixing every image, but when I happen to encounter an image that has been repeatedly recreated to reduce filesize, I'm going to reduce it still if I can. If such editing is going to be done, it makes sense for the file to be as small as possible.

Perhaps calling it invalid was too far. My point is that it's not required for validation anymore, and it's definitely not required for rendering. It's superfluous, and in an image that is trying to be as tiny as possible, it makes no sense to include it. There's a reason why it's in an appendix.

And, frankly, your response to me comes off as a bit more insulting than I hope you intended. It seems rather snarky. I know there's no "CIVIL" policy here, but I do think it helps if we try to be friendly when responding to each other. If I'd responded as "I'm don't see why whether you find something 'impressive' is all that relevant," or "I don't find your 'reason' for using my talk page to be at all impressive," I'm pretty sure I'd have set you on edge, too.

File source is not properly indicated: File:1921. AG 1922 - D. Francisco Portela Pérez 2.jpg

This media was probably deleted.

A file that you have uploaded to Wikimedia Commons, File:1921. AG 1922 - D. Francisco Portela Pérez 2.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:1921. AG 1922 - D. Francisco Portela Pérez 2.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!

I don't care all that much about this file, but I would point out that the age of the file (based on the age of the subject) makes finding a source a much lower priority. And I have not been able to successfully find this file elsewhere online. Trlkly (talk) 18:48, 2 May 2014 (UTC)

Could you make diagonal strips in this map File:Townsips map guizhou.PNG as File:Ethnic minorities areas in Guizhou.png for county and prefecture? With Equal width of strips--Kaiyr (talk) 06:36, 17 June 2014 (UTC)
