Raised pavement markings

Hi, I noticed you recently moved several files of mine to this category (2022-06-12 10 59 27 A blue pavement reflector along Mountain View Road in the Mountainview section of Ewing Township, Mercer County, New Jersey.jpg, 2022-06-12 11 00 14 A blue pavement reflector along Mountain View Road in the Mountainview section of Ewing Township, Mercer County, New Jersey.jpg, and 2022-06-12 11 00 20 A blue pavement reflector along Mountain View Road in the Mountainview section of Ewing Township, Mercer County, New Jersey.jpg). Its my understanding that the intent for this category is for RAISED pavement markings (i.e., ones which are intended to create a noticeable bump as well as reflect light), which these are not intended to do (it may be hard to tell, but they are essentially flush with the pavement, a necessity in the snow-prone northeastern United States). Is there a definition of these items which I'm not familiar with which includes those which are flush with the pavement, or was this an error? Famartin (talk) 22:29, 5 February 2024 (UTC)

@Famartin, since you don't believe they fit that category, I have moved them back. Looking at it more closely, I feel like a specific "Raised reflective markers" category should be made, since "Raised pavement markers" can encompass non-reflective markers as well. But, I suppose that's an issue for another time. — Huntster (t @ c) 23:05, 5 February 2024 (UTC)

I notice the Wikipedia article its tagged with has a completely different name, so perhaps some significant reshuffling should be done. Famartin (talk) 23:27, 5 February 2024 (UTC)

@Famartin: Yes, I've fixed the Commons-Wikidata association. — Huntster (t @ c) 02:03, 6 February 2024 (UTC)

@Drbogdan: Others have already uploaded them to Category:Event Horizon Telescope. ESO had them on their website. — Huntster (t @ c) 23:11, 28 March 2024 (UTC)

Request to blur poem on a recent Library of Congress photo.

You blurred this file File:Europa Clipper commemorative plate.jpg. I just uploaded a similar file from the Library of Congress Life Flickr website. Can you please blur my upload for the same reasons here: File:Poet Laureate Ada Limón watches the Europa Clipper lift off from Kennedy Space Center in Cape Canaveral, Florida, October 14, 2024 - 12.jpg and rev del the original upload. Thank you for your time. -- Ooligan (talk) 04:16, 9 November 2024 (UTC)
