@JotaCartas: É incrível, parecem ser exactamente iguais. Como é que se ia saber que as famosas telhas de porcelana do sobrado de Paraty, que tantas lendas e mitos inspiram por lá, são iguais às de um prédio de uma rua do Porto. Esta é a beleza do Commons. :) Muito obrigado por partilhar o achado! (e qualquer dia descobrimos até de que fábrica saíram... ) --DarwinAhoy!21:55, 9 July 2018 (UTC)
You don't think it is necessary to qualify the word carriage to indicate the intended content of the category?
Yes (in haste) I see what you mean and I agree with you but you do seem to ignore (again) what I have told you above. I quote from above "Mules have for the moment been lumped with horses because so many photographers cannot tell the difference or do not know there is a difference - similar with donkeys(!). They can all be sorted out from within the horses category at a later stage."
Mules and donkeys are common, zebras for carriages are magnificently exotic. Perhaps the zebras can just go under animal-drawn carriages until Commons has a real pile of their images.
Why do you turn these things upside down?
If it isn’t your mother-tongue you are very expert with English. You are highly knowledgeable about horse-drawn carriages.
A ‘’horse-drawn carriage’’ is a carriage that might be drawn by a horse or horses. It is distinct from a carriage intended to be drawn by a steam locomotive or a TGV. But less distinct from one drawn by mules or donkeys
You don't think it is necessary to qualify the word carriage to indicate the intended content of the category?
(Incidentally my dictionary provides the compounds: Carriage-beast; carriage-bullock and carriage cattle.)
My dictionary gives these meanings for ‘’’carriage’’’:
would there ever be mules at the other end of this vehicle?

@Eddaido: Easy question: If you don't know what animal is pushing the carriage, why do you moved the carriages to horse drawn carriages? If you don't know the colour of a car, why do you move everything to "red cars"? It's not only illogical, it's misleading, and completely necessary, as the word "carriage" was serving its purpose perfectly well.--DarwinAhoy!11:06, 2 July 2018 (UTC)
@DarwIn: Hi Darwin, I still have the uneasy feeling from you that you are inside out or looking at a mirror image or something. Do you remember this: "Mules have for the moment been lumped with horses because so many photographers cannot tell the difference or do not know there is a difference - similar with donkeys(!). They can all be sorted out from within the horses category at a later stage."?
Could this word necessary from you be a Freudian slip? You say in your last paragraph above "it's misleading, and completely necessary" where one would expect you to write unnecessary?
That's precisely because sometimes it's difficult to tell mules from horses (though not to a trained eye, I believe), that those vehicles could never be lumped together under "horse-drawn carriages". I know for a fact that mules are a preferred power force in Portugal for pulling carriages, it should be quite rare that that job is performed by an horse, which is more expensive to keep (and less fit for the job, apparently). Should we lump everything together under "mule-drawn carriages", then?--DarwinAhoy!15:41, 6 July 2018 (UTC)
That's right. I see no good reason not to lump all the Portuguese vehicles under the mule-drawn category until some enlightened editor sorts them out. Would Portuguese Royalty have used mules too? I'm well aware many South American countries use or used a lot of mules not to mention south-west US stagecoaches. I expect there will be differences in harnesses for mules but is there any difference in the actual vehicle? It has always been my intention that this mix should be temporary. I haven't finished the job-as-I-see-it. I lost most of my impetus a month or so ago, partly because no-one else was interested and partly for other non-WP reasons.
If I have made my point with my dictionary extract above please would you remove it or archive it. Its ugly. I didn't know of your latest response and I regret my delay in checking.
Can I outline my proposals for animal-powered transport to you as a prelude to putting them up for discussion — should you think that is necessary - I'm afraid it would suffer from lack of interest. Regards, Eddaido (talk) 01:32, 10 July 2018 (UTC)
@Eddaido: I myself can tell a mule from an horse (and even more from a donkey) with some easiness, and I expect others are able to do that as well. The vehicles are exactly the same, as far as I know - that's why they can never been sorted out by type of animal power.--DarwinAhoy!01:37, 10 July 2018 (UTC)
Ha ha, let me rephrase that question. Did Portuguese noblemen usually attend state occasions in carriages drawn by mules? (2) Is it fair to record in Wikipedia that mules were primarily built and used by the Iberian nations and their colonies / former colonies in Latin America? Eddaido (talk) 01:53, 11 July 2018 (UTC)
In the image on the right the Deadwood Stage equipage incorporated extra wind-resistance but there was no remark from the caption writer.
what are these animals? What draws the stagecoach at the left?
Hello, DarwIn! I noticed your message on File:170424-purple-hair-goth-fashion-influencer-outfits-clothing-2.jpg and wanted to add some clarification. Both the image (which is sourced to the subject) and the email address from which I forwarded the license release are found on the page I cited as the image source. Please confirm the data. Thank you for your assistance. Feather Jonah II (talk) 11:26, 30 July 2018 (UTC)
Hi @DarwIn! I though you delete the photo I uploaded on Wiki Commons yesterday. By the way, thank you for adding the template on that particular photo and I hope I'll make sure to resolve this problem I'd made. Thank you again my new friend!RenRen070193 (talk) 14:21, 31 July 2018 (UTC)
Cannot Get an image reviewed
Dear Darwin,
Im writing this failing to do a supposedly simple task of changing the Wiki BIo Image of my company CEO. I have a creative with me which is solely owned by our company which I would like to replace the current image on https://ar.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D8%AE%D9%84%D9%88%D8%AF_%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%B9%D9%85%D9%8A%D8%A7%D9%86 .Profile Where the image needs to be Replaced The article was created by en ex-employee whose email I cant access now.The same image is currently the Profile Pic of her on LinkedIn. This image is not published anywhere else online. I followed all the instructions specified by Mr. Paulo as in Ticket "[Ticket#2018073010002083] [Ticket#2018073010002092] release of خلود العميان.jpg " but It is still not reviewed. So what shall I do now to get this image to show up instead of the current one?
Question: what would be a proper category for a decorative, ornamental urn, the kind seen in Baroque and Neoclassical architecture in Brazil? We have "Flame urns (ornament)" but not "Urns" as an architectural element, as in something here: [Building Ornaments].
Bonjour DarwIn,
ce fichier que vous avez téléchargé indique la région "Lazio" dans la description, au centre de l'Italie, cependant les coordonnées (lieu de la prise de vue) portent en Lombardie, à Mandello del Lario, au nord de l'Italie. Pourriez-vous vérifier quelle est la donnée à retenir, et corriger, s'il-vous-plaît ? Cordialement,--Pạtạfisik07:13, 7 August 2018 (UTC)
Bonsoir, Patafisik. Je pense que en cette situation le lieu en la description est le correct, parce que cette paysage ne ressemble pas les montagnes des Alpes de les coordonnées. C'est meilleur simplement effacer les coordonnées dans le fichier, non? --DarwinAhoy!14:16, 7 August 2018 (UTC)
Bonjour, les Projets Rome et Lombardie sur it.wiki n'arrivent pas à une conclusion unanime, je viens d'écrire à l'auteur, j'attends sa réponse. Cordialement,--Pạtạfisik10:50, 10 August 2018 (UTC)

You uploaded this with Category:Seattle and geocoordinates placing it in Seattle's Volunteer Park. In fact, it is a photo from some 2,000 miles away in Louisville, Kentucky. Took a lot of sleuthing. You might want to check whether you uploaded other similarly mislabeled photos from the same source and at least remove the bogus geoocoords and put Category:Unknown location in place of the actively misleading location categories, so that there is a better chance of someone working this through if you don't want to do it yourself. - Jmabel ! talk19:17, 2 September 2018 (UTC)
@Jmabel: Hey! No, it wasn't me who added the wrong category based on the wrong geocoords, it was a bot. These files are being massively imported from the 500px project (where they are risking being deleted) to Commons in a first moment using only visual clues, to be finely categorized afterwards. This is not the first case where wrong geocoords have appeared there, I don't know how to avoid that bot passing there and placing a wrong category in the files after they are uploaded.. Many thanks for fixing the categorization, BTW.--DarwinAhoy!21:22, 2 September 2018 (UTC)
I've actually fixed a bunch that showed up with obviously wrong geocoords (e.g. a flower with geeocoords that place it 2 miles from land in Puget Sound), though I don't think they were your uploads. - Jmabel ! talk04:32, 3 September 2018 (UTC)

A file that you have uploaded to Wikimedia Commons, File:500px photo (65048103).jpeg, is a derivative work, containing an "image within an image". Examples of such works would include a photograph of a sculpture, a scan of a magazine cover, or a map that has been altered from the original. In each of these cases, the rights of the creator of the original must be considered, as well as those of the creator of the derivative work.
While the description page states who made this derivative work, it currently doesn't specify who created the original work, so the overall copyright status is unclear. If you did not create the original work depicted in this image, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright.
Please edit the file description and add the missing information, or the file may be deleted. If you created the original content yourself, enter this information as the source. If someone else created the content, 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.

Hello Darwin. You deleted [3] and [4] as "obvious" copyvios. I can't see the deleted versions to see how well the copyright status was described, but at en:Talk:Donna Strickland#Offer of help, the uploader explained:
And I can see on the OSA website that they are indeed released under CC BY-SA. I'm therefore struggling to see how they could have met Commons:CSD#F1. Can you please restore them? Joe Roe (talk) 13:31, 7 October 2018 (UTC)
@Joe Roe: I see. The problem was that that notice never made it to Commons, so for me here it was indeed an obvious copyvio, as the source was not correctly stated and the website is fully copyrighted. One of the images was already marked for deletion. Anyway, I'll fix that now. Thanks for the information.--DarwinAhoy!14:31, 7 October 2018 (UTC)
I'm seeing now that the source was indeed correct, I failed to see the captions under the images there. This kind of uploads should always be marked for license review, because of this. I'll do that straight away.--DarwinAhoy!14:35, 7 October 2018 (UTC)
@Joe Roe, Tinynull, and GreenMeansGo: I've restored the three files that were licensed by OSA under CC-BY-SA-4.0, and reviewed those licenses to avoid further problems with them. I've also reverted all picture changes caused by those deletions. Can you please check if everything is OK now? To avoid situations like this, next time you can use OTRS, or at least mark the files with {{LicenseReview}}. But I believe using OTRS would still be the best way.--DarwinAhoy!15:25, 7 October 2018 (UTC)
@Tinynull: You are very welcome, and thank you for the images you've donated to Commons. Welcome to the project, and in case you need anything, I'll be happy to help.--DarwinAhoy!14:07, 8 October 2018 (UTC)

Hi, I have seen several recent cases where you undeleted a file shortly after I deleted it without consulting me and without going to COM:UDR. Please don't do that, this is called wheelwarring and we have an established concensus that we do not accept wheelwarring. Jcb (talk) 15:53, 10 October 2018 (UTC)
@Jcb: As far as I know, for a wheelwarring to happen the first admin has to revert the action of the second, something that, as far as I know, I've never done. If you have any specific problem with something I've undeleted, please tell me. Otherwise, those kind of comments are not really helpful nor welcome here. Regards,--DarwinAhoy!16:19, 10 October 2018 (UTC)
BTW, not everybody here has the whole time in the world to go to the purgatory of COM:UDR for every obvious case of Public Domain that was carelessly deleted. If you are speaking about the Argentina file, you should be thankful for fixing something that you have wrongly done in the first place. And for not going after you, harassing you in your talk page because of that, as some here sometimes do.--DarwinAhoy!16:23, 10 October 2018 (UTC)
(EC)No, the mainstream understanding is that you are wheelwarring when you revert the first admin action without following proper procedure. E.g. there was not valid reason for you to do this. Don't do it. Jcb (talk) 16:25, 10 October 2018 (UTC)
@Jcb: I can understand that one was a dubious case. The file is obviously on scope, but the source is dubious, that's why I have not undeleted the others. Anyway, it's gone now. I guess it was the only one I've undeleted that way, anyway. Is there any other do you want to refer?--DarwinAhoy!16:31, 10 October 2018 (UTC)
No, that's it for now. That file drew my attention when scanning my deletion logs for recreations. That situation was so unusual, that I was triggered immediately when I saw your name again in combination with an undeletion. If in the future you think that I have deleted a file in error, please feel free to leave me a note at my user talk page. I will almost always be able to take a look within 24 hours.

Structured Data - IRC office hour today, 1 November
There will be an IRC office hour for Structured Data on Commons today, 1 October 2018, from 17:00-18:00 UTC in #wikimedia-office. You can find date/time conversion, as well as a link to join the chat in your browser if needed, on the IRC Office hours page on Meta. I realize this may be short notice for some people; I am experimenting with advanced notice times to see what works best for the most people, I'll be giving more warning before the next office hour. I look forward to seeing you there. -- Keegan (WMF) (talk) 16:02, 1 November 2018 (UTC)
Structured Data - IRC office hour today, 1 November
The above message says 1 October in the body when it should say 1 November, as the subject line says. Apologies for making a new section by mass message, it's the only way to get this out quickly. See you in twenty minutes! -- Keegan (WMF) (talk) 16:37, 1 November 2018 (UTC)
Structured Data - copyright and licensing statements
I've posted a second round of designs for modeling copyright and licensing in structured data. These redesigns are based off the feedback received in the first round of designs, and the development team is looking for more discussion. These designs are extremely important for the Commons community to review, as they deal with how copyright and licensing is translated from templates into structured form. I look forward to seeing you over there. -- Keegan (WMF) (talk) 16:25, 2 November 2018 (UTC)

Ok. I was just wondering, as lots of CC licenses on external sites appear to be nothing more than "license laundering" and as no details give the current license, as you noticed. I'm aware that CC is additional info about the copyright, but "CC warnings" are usually a bit more explicit, hence my astonishment. Anyway, thanks for the answer. Regards. -- BarnCas (talk) 18:45, 27 November 2018 (UTC)
Thanks for uploading File:500px photo (162822873).jpeg. I notice that the file page either doesn't contain enough information about the license or it contains contradictory information about the license, so the copyright status is unclear.
If you did not create the file yourself or if it is a derivative of another work that is possibly subject to copyright protection, then you must specify where you found it (e.g. usually a link to the web page where you got it), you must provide proof that it has a license that is acceptable for Commons (e.g. usually a link to the terms of use for content from that page), and you must add an appropriate license tag. If you did not create the file yourself and the specific source and license information is not available on the web, you must obtain permission through the VRT system and follow the procedure described there.
Note that any unsourced or improperly licensed files will be deleted one week after they have been marked as lacking proper information, as described in criteria for deletion. If you have uploaded other files, please confirm that you have provided the proper information for those files, too. If you have any questions about licenses please ask at Commons:Village pump/Copyright or see our help pages. Thank you.

Structured Data on Commons Newsletter - Fall 2018 edition
Welcome to the newsletter for Structured Data on Wikimedia Commons! You can update your subscription to the newsletter. Do inform others who you think will want to be involved in the project!
Community updates
Multilingual Captions, the first feature release for Structured Data, is coming in January of 2019
Be on the lookout for the beta testing announcement
Help using captions has been set up, if you'd like to go ahead and see the workflow
Two IRC office hours were held since the last newsletter
Structured Data on Commons was the subject of a keynote presentation by Sandra (see slides) at the Baltic Audiovisual Archives Council conference in Tallinn, Estonia, November 2018.
We are currently planning the first GLAM pilot projects that will use structured data on Wikimedia Commons. One project has already started: the Swedish Heritage Board researches and develops a prototype tool to provide improved metadata (translations, data additions...) from Wikimedia Commons back to the source institution. Read the project brief.
The documentation for batch uploads of files to Wikimedia Commons will be improved in 2019, as part of preparing for Structured Data on Wikimedia Commons. To prepare, the GLAM team at the Wikimedia Foundation wants to understand better which types of documentation you already use, and how you like to learn new GLAM-Wiki skills and knowledge. Fill in a short survey to provide input!

@Chicocvenancio: Oi Chico, não tem como remover os PD-Mark do 500px? Essas marcações todas que tenho aí de falta de licença são dos PD-Mark, q de facto não vale como licença.--DarwinAhoy!14:15, 7 December 2018 (UTC)
The Structured Data on Commons team has begun beta testing of the first feature, multilingual file captions, and all community members are invited to test it out. Captions is based on designs discussed with the community[5][6] and the team is looking forward to hearing about testing. If all goes well during testing, captions will be turned on for Commons around the second week of January, 2019.
Multilingual captions are plain text fields that provide brief, easily translatable details of a file in a way that is easy to create, edit, and curate. Captions are added during the upload process using the UploadWizard, or they can be added directly on any file page on Commons. Adding captions in multiple languages is a simple process that requires only a few steps.
Testing will take place on Beta Commons. If you don’t yet have an account set up there, you’ll need one.
Beta Commons is a testbed, and not configured exactly like the real Commons site, so expect to see some discrepancies with user interface (UI) elements like search.
Structured Data introduces the potential for many important page changes to happen at once, which could flood the recent changes list. Because of this, Enhanced Recent Changes is enabled as it currently is at Commons, but with some UI changes.
Some testing has already taken place and the team are aware of some issues. A list of known issues can be seen below.
If you discover a bug/issue that is not covered in the known issues, please file a ticket on Phabricator and tag it with the “Multimedia” tag. Use this link to file a new task already tagged with "Multimedia."
Known issues:
Search is not currently working on Beta Commons. Search is not needed for testing captions, but service should be restored soon.

People on Russian Wikivoyage are complaining about the fact that most photos from this RfD were speedily deleted by you, because so they don't have the possibility to save the files by bot locally. In general, of course, files violating FoP have to be deleted, but: a) never speedily (a regular RfD is needed to documentng all FoP deletions in case of future law change towards more liberal one, so all can then be easily found and restored); b) any RfD should run at least 7 days -- this should be self-evident for every sysop here on Commons, and especially for the files that are to be saved locally, for the written above. => Please restore the files you deleted and wait 7 days. Thanks --A.Savin07:09, 1 January 2019 (UTC)
@A.Savin: Ah, I had the (apparently wrong) idea that obvious cases of FoP violation should be deleted on sight. Don't worry, I'll restore them, thanks for notifying me. BTW, Apparently that big structure with the spacecraft sculpture at the top seems to be a tower of the museum building, and in that case it should be kept as architecture. Can you help confirming this? --DarwinAhoy!15:24, 1 January 2019 (UTC)
Thanks for response. The Monument to the Conquerors of Space is no building (all what is above the basic part where the Cosmonatuics Museum is, is sculpture, there are no rooms inside, no windows etc) As long as there are no known court decisions in Russia about it, the current consensus is, that sculptures as part of decoration of a building, are to be treated same way as any other sculptures.

Multilingual file captions will be released this week, on either Wednesday, 9 November or Thursday, 10 November 2019. Captions are a feature to add short, translatable descriptions to files. Here's some links you might want to look follow before the release, if you haven't already:
Read over the help page for using captions - I wrote the page on mediawiki.org because captions are available for any MediaWiki user, feel free to host/modify a copy of the page here on Commons.
Leave feedback about the test on the captions test talk page, if you have anything you'd like to say prior to release.
Additionally, there will be an IRC office hour on Thursday, 10 January with the Structured Data team to talk about file captions, as well as anything else the community may be interested in. Date/time conversion, as well as a link to join, are on Meta.
The previous message from today says captions will be released in November in the text. January is the correct month. My apologies for the potential confusion. -- Keegan (WMF) (talk) 20:43, 7 January 2019 (UTC)

Hello DarwIn, I'm sorry to have rollbacked there : [7], it was just a test to see if the function rollback worked well with the "captions" feature. That seems to work well, and I reinstalled you edits. Thanks you, and sorry again. Regards, Christian Ferrer(talk)19:14, 10 January 2019 (UTC)
I hope you are fine and I wish you a very happy new year 2019 !! Thank you very much again for your kind answer on the OTRS Noticeboard in December about Prince of Persia screenshots. I know that there is a huge backlog for the treatment of the emails received by the small OTRS team, and validated by volunteers like you. That's why I'm a bit ill at ease to ask you if you would have some time in the coming days to validate the final agreement sent by the copyright owner of the pictures. I really would like to use these pictures on Wikipedia since the month of August but I need them to be validated first to use them without any problem on the encyclopedia. Thank you very much if you have the time to check this (and sorry for this awkward request) ! --ΛΦΠ (talk) 20:51, 11 January 2019 (UTC)

Hi DarwIn:
Please rename File:Puplinge_Classique_2018.jpg to File:Puplinge-classique-camerata-gafner-2018-07-14.jpg
Thanks in advance Jacques.999 (talk) 15:38, 27 January 2019 (UTC)
Please, could you indicate the exact reason of the request? As is stated in the OTRS messages, the sender of the message is the only owner of the copyright of the mentioned works. Than you in advance. Aitzolete ([[User talk:Aitzolete|int:Talkpagelinktext]]) 11:22, 4 February 2019 (UTC)
Hi. Template:U has a few problems. They are consistently uploading raster images as SVG files, putting a summary and license section into the description, and licensing them simultaneously under cc-by-sa-4.0 and PD-BrazilGov. I tried to explain to them that their upload routine is broken, but they didn't reply and blanked their talk page for some reason. Maybe there's a language barrier, so I fished you out of the list of Portuguese-speaking admins, hoping that you can clear things up. Thanks. (I just noticed that all their older images were deleted. Since Template:U's uploads are extremely similar (e.g. I tagged Template:F as a duplicate of Template:F), some of Template:U's files might have similar problems.)

Once the depicts feature is ready for testing, it will take place in two stages on TestCommons. The first is checking the very basics; is the design comfortable, how does the simple workflow of adding/editing/removing statements work, and building up help and process pages from there. The second part is a more detailed test of depicts and other statements, checking the edge-case examples of using the features, bugs that did not come up during simple testing, etc. Additionally we'll be looking with the community for bugs in interaction with bots, gadgets, and other scripts once the features are live on Commons. Please let me know if you're interesting in helping test and fix these bugs if they show up upon release, it is really hard to find them in a test environment or, in some cases, bugs won't show up in a testing environment at all.
One new thing is definitely coming within the next few weeks, pending testing: the ability to search for captions. This is done using the inlabel keyword in search strings, and will be the first step in helping users find content that is specifically structured data. I'll post a notice when that feature is live and ready for use.
Olá DarwIn! Percebi agora que fiz confusão ao carregar novas versões de certa imagem. Especificamente, em janeiro carreguei duas novas versões em File:Mercosur-map.svg, quando eu deveria ter feito em File:Mercosur-map-pt.svg. Como faz para consertar isso? Dá para mover? Tu como administrador pode mover os registros? Ou o jeito é restaurar a versão anterior em uma e carregar a versão correta na outra?

Thank you for your participation in Wiki Loves Love 2019
Wiki Loves Love 2019 has ended and team Wiki Loves Love sends you greetings and appreciation for joining us in spreading love around the globe and documents how love is expressed in different cultures. We hope to see you again in 2020. Till then stay tuned to know the results of WLL19 that will be out in this April. Please make sure that your email is enabled so we can communicate with you if you are one of our prize winners.(learn more how to do)
The Structured Data on Commons development team has the very basic version of depicts statements available for early testing on Test-Commons. You can add very basic depicts statements to the file page by going into the new “Structured Data” tab located below the "Open in Media Viewer button." You can use the Latest Files link in the left side nav bar to select existing images, or use the UploadWizard to upload new ones to test with (although those images won’t actually show up on the site). The test site is not a fully functional replica of Commons, so there may be some overall problems in using the site, but you should be able to get a general idea of what using the feature is like.
Early next week I will call for broad, community-wide testing of the feature similar to what we did for Captions, with instructions for testing, known bugs, and a dedicated space to discuss the feature as well as a simple help page for using statements. Until then, you're welcome to post on the SDC talk page with what you might find while testing depicts.
Template:U, é sobre a questão das minhas fotografias, que a gente discutiu dias atrás. Infelizmente ninguém está dando a mínima importância pra isso e estão rejeitando meus pedidos de restauração. Eu não sou habituado com os processos aqui e a questão do idioma atrapalha ainda mais. Já pedi ajuda pro Template:U há mais de um mês mas até agora ele não retornou.

Template:Ping Hi! I'm not sure about them belonging to "plan views", it's better to check the tree upwards and see if it makes sense to place them there. Apparently they should be in "Architectural drawings of Notre-Dame de Paris" , not in plan views, but I'm not sure. I believe "Architectural drawings of Notre-Dame de Paris" should be a subcat of "Cathédrale Notre-Dame de Paris in art", no? In that case they should be only in the deeper category.--DarwinAhoy!18:18, 19 April 2019 (UTC)
