Hey Armbrust! I've expanded Plumbeous Water Redstart, one of the articles on the list. While I've removed the stub category tag on the article, the talk page stub rating remains unchanged. Cheers! — Bloom6132 ( talk) 03:33, 3 December 2013 (UTC)
Hi Armbrust, I've been reading the article entitled "Snooker season 2013/2014" and thought that you would be the best person to ask about it as you seem to have updated the article more than anybody else.
I notice it says: "The 2013/2014 season was made up of 131 professional players." I'm presuming this includes the top 129 players in the world rankings after seeding revision 4 as well as Igor Figueiredo and Ben Judge. Am I therefore correct in assuming that the reason you didn't adjust that number to 130 on November 4 (when seeding revision 4 was issued) was purely on the basis that Ben Judge was included on seeding revisions 2 and 3 (therefore a professional this season prior to September 23) and not because you believe that he is currently a professional?
Is there some sort of participation criteria that national governing body nominations must meet in order to preserve their professional status? It's not clear to me why Floyd Ziegler and Ben Judge (both given a tour card for 2012/13-2013/14) have both been removed from the world rankings list prematurely.
Kind regards. Standingfish ( talk) 05:40, 3 December 2013 (UTC)

I've removed the tag from the template page and posted the Tfd discussion template on the talk page. However, the talk page template links to another discussion instead of linking here. This is my first Tfd close so maybe there is a nuance I'm not getting. Any suggestions?-- — Keithbob • Talk • 21:54, 11 December 2013 (UTC)

Hello Armbrust, Due to, https://en.wikipedia.org/?title=Maximum_break&action=history. I am Mr.Com who changed 3rd maximum break video to the official one at 14:32, 14 December 2013. By giving the reason that it contains more than just the maximum break, you changed it back to the original one at 15:56, 14 December 2013. I would like to ask you that does the official video violate any rule of wikipedia? I prefer the official one because of its quality and it contains the 'complete' frame (including an interview about the maximum break from both players). Cheers!!

Hello Armbrust. With this edit you removed one or more 'appeal after' dates. Is this wise? I see that User:KhabarNegar was revert warring over the change to his entry, which had been stable since the original closure in June 2013.

Hi Armbrust, thanks for closing down the extraneous thread created at AN/I with regard to the closure of the "sanctions" discussion involving me, Medeis and Baseball Bugs. I'm sure the conspiracy theory propounded by Medeis (that the use of the word "tragic" or "tragedy") will form the basis of yet another AN/I in due course, but it would be worthwhile you reminding her that continually linking to her own self-outing will do nothing other than allow other nefarious readers to determine her location, identity etc. Giving away such vital personal information should be discouraged. I'm more than content to continue any such discussion on-wiki and yet I understand Medeis' decision to finally avoid discussing her personal life at the RDs and other places on Wikipedia. Good luck.

Hello -you recently declined the upload of a photo for Rachel K Collier on the basis that non-free images of living people cant be uploaded (at least i think was the reason!) -but i dont understand how that ties in with this page: Wikipedia:Publicity photos? I've found a link to the offical press release kit here -and the image is being used all over the place as there is clearly an implied licence for use. I'm sure I could get in touch with the photographer and get explicit written permission for it to go up on the page, if that's what's required? Also, if you can't use this image, then how do i get one up on the wikipedia page, do i have to find rachel and take one myself?! thanks for your help, would just be nice to have a picture up of her — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bitsumishi ( talk • contribs) 13:33, 16 January 2014
At your earliest convenience, I invite you to peruse the article Velodona, which I have taken from 119 B to 3863 B in readable prose. Sven Manguard Wha? 00:33, 17 January 2014 (UTC)
Hey! Firstly, thanks for the quick response at FP, and the clear feedback about what needs to be done. This is my first time nominating an image to FP, and even though it was speedily rejected, I had a very good newbie user experience.
I knew the size would be a problem, but read that you sometimes make exceptions for "historical or otherwise unique images, if no higher resolution could realistically be acquired."
So, my first question is if you have any advice on how I could acquire a higher resolution image. One answer would be to seek one from the original office that created the image, but that may prove impossible. Another answer might be to have an expert recreate the image as an svg, although I'm not sure if that would be allowed. You do this all the time--do you have any other ideas?
Secondly, I'm a newbie to FP but an oldie to WP. I know sometimes as speedy close is merely indicative of one problem out of many. If I got my hands on a high resolution copy of the image, do you you think there's a good change it might survive FP? or are there other problems beyond just resolution, do you think?
Thanks again for you quick assessment and NotBiting the newbie :) -- HectorMoffet ( talk) 10:58, 17 January 2014 (UTC)

Hello, you closed the discussion on Alter ego, per Singular focus on psychological usage, ignoring common usage on the basis that: There is a clear consensus, that this article should only focus on one subject, however there is no consensus, whether this should be the psychological or literary usage. This is a request to reopen the discussion.
I was the proponent and opened the discussion rather than edit the article. IMHO, it seems that my proposal was singularly interpreted as a motion to split the article. That was not my intention. Also, I agree that the article should focus on one subject (i.e. alter ego). My intention was to present the different meanings in different contexts - which one would expect an encyclopedia to delineate. Also, since this article has been ear-marked for clean-up, I would expect that further discussion on the subject would be appropriate before clean-up is commenced. Since there was really no active discussion on this, I should accept responsibility for not responding sooner to the last two comments, in particular.

I have some confusion over whether
this former logo is from 1999 or from July 2000. I have solid evidence dating back to July of 2000 but nothing more than educated guessing as to the 1999 part, mainly from deducing things from facts mentioned in the station's article (i.e. "In 1999, WDUV would swap its frequency with
Classic rock station WTBT, moving from 103.5 to the stronger 105.5 signal (WTBT is now
WFUS, "US 103-5"
country music). However, both frequencies would retain their transmitting locations and cities of license—after the swap, WDUV became licensed in
New Port Richey with transmitting facilities in
Holiday, while WTBT / WFUS, whose transmitter was located in
Riverview, became licensed in Bradenton. (That station has since been relicensed to
Gulfport.)"). The contents of the quotation in mind, the first "5" in "105.5" is a different color, an indication that the logo is highlighting on the swap in frequency from "103.5" to "105.5" from 1999, an indicator that the logo was perhaps created very close to the point in time when the 1999 frequency swap took place during (just saying).
The reason why I presumed the old logo for
WDUV began usage in July 2000 was because that was when the website for that Radio Station was built…however, the article for
WDUV states that the frequency swap from current-day
WFUS (as well as the sale of the station to
Cox Radio) occurred back in 1999. I'd presume that was when the logo dates back to… however, because the websites only dates back to July of 2000, I haven't any way to know for certain whether that was the logo back in 1999 (i.e. I haven't any sources proving
this former logo's presence prior to July of 2000); hence, I declared it to date back to July of 2000. Perhaps, that's the why the year the image ought to be copyrighted to should, indeed, be 2000 (as opposed to 1999)? I'm not sure how this works. Please, help shed some light on this situation. I was only able to prove the logo's usage back to July of 2000 but I have a reason to believe (or personal suspicion) that it in fact dates back to 1999 but I haven't any way of proving it. Should it be listed on Wikipedia as being copyrighted for and created during the time it can be proven back to?
Also, prior to July of 2000,
this former logo existed in offline forms only (presumably Bumper Stickers, Letterhead, etc.) but the electronic variation (i.e. pixels and
JPEG files and whatnot and so forth) of the logo was not yet in existence until July of 2000. Also, who's to say that
Cox Radio created a logo for the station immediately? Lots of radio stations have been known to go for several months with no logos (especially before the Internet became popular), especially during those awkward in-between-owners phases (such as what
WDUV experienced throughout the year, 1999). But the website's archives back to July of 2000 are hard evidence of the logo's existence back then (but fails to prove it's existence back to 1999).
The websites for other
Cox Radio stations from the
Tampa, Florida market can be archived back to early 2000, while
WDUV's website can only be archived back to July of that year (an indication that perhaps it can be deduced that
Clear Channel Communications sold
WDUV to
Cox Radio sometime in mid-2000); therefore,
this former logo has been accurately-copyrighted to the year, 2000. No solid evidence exists as to whether the logo is from 1999 or anytime before July 2000.

Hello, I'm Kkj11210. I was the user who recently made a request on the AutoWikiBrowser page which you've declined. First of all, I was wondering if the types of edits were necessary for approval of the page. The Wikipedia:AutoWikiBrowser/CheckPage states that only 500 mainspace edits are necessary. But in the case that the types are distinguished, I would like to explain my reasons for the contributions and the request for AWB
I would like to use AWB to perform main cleanups of Korean articles. For instance, the first goal that I've set was using AWB to change the outdated address systems to newer systems, which I've discussed here. I believe that AWB can help a lot with that. Moreover, there are other general cleanups like the cases above which AWB will really be helpful with. Following the idea, I've been mostly doing vandalism reverts because I was waiting for the AWB access. If you look at the 500th to 1000th contributions, you can see that I had been contributing to Korean articles; I've stopped since I wished to start general cleanups first, then move onto individual articles. Please reconsider your decision and leave a message. Thanks! KJ click here 23:26, 17 February 2014 (UTC)

Whenever uploading an image in a non-native format (such as uploading a
JPEG Image as a
PNG Image file with Transparent Background) to a Wikipedia article, how does the image conversion take place? Does the conversion happen via the Upload Wizard or is the conversion made via software installed on the user's computer (such as
Adobe Photoshop or similar digital graphic editing computer software)?
If I really have my heart set on having
this image uploaded as a

this image could be uploaded to the

I'd like to request the upload of some logos to some radio stations but I'd like specifically for you to be the Uploader of those images. That being said, I've been very conservative lately in my submittals of those Upload Requests. Per your acknowledgement, I will add those Image Upload Requests to the "
Files For Upload" page. I don't want any "Certain Someone" uploaders to get to my requests before you do. I've got plenty of logo requests that I've been working on so please let me know whether you have time for plenty or just a couple. Needless to say, I'm really getting anxious to see those logos appear in those articles, one after the next. I'm ready when you are. Just give me the word (via a response to this message, I mean) and I'll add those updates to
the proper page so that YOU (not any "Certain Someone" uploaders) can get to them first…
Also, Question: How do you upload images where the source file is in a
Small Web Format format? What if the source file is a Flash file and you wish to upload the image to the article as a
PNG file?
Thirdly,
this file replaces
this file; therefore, the
GIF Image link ought to be deleted.

You seem to do a lot of the archiving for the PERM pages, and I'm wondering if you do it manually or via a script. If you're doing it with a script, I would like to have a look at that script so I can suggest a couple "improvements" as I see them (I did some manual archiving of the requests for reviewer the other day and saw some minor issues that could easily be resolved). If you're doing it manually, then you are doing a great job, but I'm still curious as to your process for it. If there is no script, perhaps I can create one to make it easier. Thanks! — {{U| Technical 13}} ( t • e • c) 18:48, 10 March 2014 (UTC)
1. I'm finally creating an account for myself here on Wikipedia. I'm just uncertain about whether the character limit for a Username is 42 characters (or just 40). I've generated a Username already and will end it with "1999" (if the character limit is 42) or "99" (if the character limit is just 40).
2. I'm finally heeding your advice to generate my own account. I'm just not sure how I'd ever know how to include the proper information on an image's Info Page, once I upload an image.
3. I also might struggle to guess correctly as to whether or not an image falls within "
Public domain". I've saved all 110 Image Upload Requests into a Microsoft Word document. If you'd ever elect to upload a set limit at a time, I'd be happy to add them to the "Files for Upload" page, little-by-little, and you could upload them gradually, over the period of several days. I think it is a great idea for you to set limits with me. "Life Without Boundaries" certainly isn't always all that it's cracked up to be. If you'd be willing to set limits with me towards how many updates I may submit in a given day/week to Wiki's "Files for Upload" page, I'd promise to abide by it. I feel that I've done an incredible job contributing to Wikipedia and feel that my contributions are definitely benefiting Wiki; I also feel that I might need to practice a bit with uploading images, because I wouldn't be good at it right away. I'd be willing to cooperate with you and not overkill on how many Upload Requests I make. I could keep them archived somewhere on my computer (such as in a Microsoft Word document) and add them gradually to the Wiki "Files for Upload" page.

Before I start uploading logos myself, though, I want to make certain that I educate myself as to how to perform a legitimate logo uploading procedure, for I am well aware of the fact that Wikipedia has been known to have some fairly strict copyright rules (and I want to do everything in my power to avoid getting warned and/or blocked from the site due to copyright and/or term violations).

Hi Armbrust - thanks for sorting out the remaining sports festival banners and subst'ing the cfr templates. Out of interest: does AWB offer a more efficient way of tagging things like this? I've been doing a bit more category work lately to resolve some long-standing issues and I've found this type of work very time consuming.

Under some circumstances with an image being uploaded to Wikipedia falling under " Public domain," you seem to set a Maximum Dimension restriction at 930 Pixels, where whatever the larger of the two dimensions are (length versus width) gets kept within 930 Pixels. Sometimes, while uploading " Public domain" images to Wikipedia, you restrict the larger dimension to 930 Pixels and sometimes you don't. Of course, there's also something else known as "Trademark" and I'm not really sure how that's different (I mean that I'm asking you, because I'm not really in-the-know about "Copyright" versus "Trademark" and how they differ). Specifically, I'm asking you this question, because I'm considering uploading a PNG version of a logo that's already uploaded (but in a JPEG format). That image is identical to the one I wish to upload and it falls within " Public domain" (as indicated on the Image Upload/Info Page); although, the one I want to upload into a PNG format is larger than 930 Pixels with its larger dimension. (It's 1,425px × 525px, by the way, and I'm wondering whether I should scale that " Public domain" image down to 930px × 343px.) Oh, and here's the image that I'm thinking about uploading but as a PNG file for KORL-HD4. I'm also considering uploading a Higher-Quality version of the Former Logo for WBGR-LP but I am also struggling with that 930 Pixel dilemma with that station as well. How do you determine when to limit the size to 930 Pixels (larger dimension) and when not to? DizzyMosquitoRadio99 ( talk) 18:30, 25 March 2014 (UTC)

Hi Armbrust, I've been reading the article entitled "Snooker season 2013/2014" and thought that you would be the best person to ask about it as you seem to have updated the article more than anybody else.
I notice it says: "The 2013/2014 season was made up of 131 professional players." I'm presuming this includes the top 129 players in the world rankings after seeding revision 4 as well as Igor Figueiredo and Ben Judge. Am I therefore correct in assuming that the reason you didn't adjust that number to 130 on November 4 (when seeding revision 4 was issued) was purely on the basis that Ben Judge was included on seeding revisions 2 and 3 (therefore a professional this season prior to September 23) and not because you believe that he is currently a professional?
Is there some sort of participation criteria that national governing body nominations must meet in order to preserve their professional status? It's not clear to me why Floyd Ziegler and Ben Judge (both given a tour card for 2012/13-2013/14) have both been removed from the world rankings list prematurely.
Kind regards. Standingfish ( talk) 05:40, 3 December 2013 (UTC)

Hello Armbrust, Due to, https://en.wikipedia.org/?title=Maximum_break&action=history. I am Mr.Com who changed 3rd maximum break video to the official one at 14:32, 14 December 2013. By giving the reason that it contains more than just the maximum break, you changed it back to the original one at 15:56, 14 December 2013. I would like to ask you that does the official video violate any rule of wikipedia? I prefer the official one because of its quality and it contains the 'complete' frame (including an interview about the maximum break from both players). Cheers!!

Hi Armbrust, thanks for closing down the extraneous thread created at AN/I with regard to the closure of the "sanctions" discussion involving me, Medeis and Baseball Bugs. I'm sure the conspiracy theory propounded by Medeis (that the use of the word "tragic" or "tragedy") will form the basis of yet another AN/I in due course, but it would be worthwhile you reminding her that continually linking to her own self-outing will do nothing other than allow other nefarious readers to determine her location, identity etc. Giving away such vital personal information should be discouraged. I'm more than content to continue any such discussion on-wiki and yet I understand Medeis' decision to finally avoid discussing her personal life at the RDs and other places on Wikipedia. Good luck.

I've found a link to the offical press release kit here -and the image is being used all over the place as there is clearly an implied licence for use. I'm sure I could get in touch with the photographer and get explicit written permission for it to go up on the page, if that's what's required?

Hey! Firstly, thanks for the quick response at FP, and the clear feedback about what needs to be done. This is my first time nominating an image to FP, and even though it was speedily rejected, I had a very good newbie user experience.
I knew the size would be a problem, but read that you sometimes make exceptions for "historical or otherwise unique images, if no higher resolution could realistically be acquired."
So, my first question is if you have any advice on how I could acquire a higher resolution image. One answer would be to seek one from the original office that created the image, but that may prove impossible. Another answer might be to have an expert recreate the image as an svg, although I'm not sure if that would be allowed. You do this all the time--do you have any other ideas?
Secondly, I'm a newbie to FP but an oldie to WP. I know sometimes as speedy close is merely indicative of one problem out of many. If I got my hands on a high resolution copy of the image, do you you think there's a good change it might survive FP? or are there other problems beyond just resolution, do you think?
Thanks again for you quick assessment and NotBiting the newbie :) -- HectorMoffet ( talk) 10:58, 17 January 2014 (UTC)

Hello, you closed the discussion on Alter ego, per Singular focus on psychological usage, ignoring common usage on the basis that: There is a clear consensus, that this article should only focus on one subject, however there is no consensus, whether this should be the psychological or literary usage. This is a request to reopen the discussion.
I was the proponent and opened the discussion rather than edit the article. IMHO, it seems that my proposal was singularly interpreted as a motion to split the article. That was not my intention. Also, I agree that the article should focus on one subject (i.e. alter ego). My intention was to present the different meanings in different contexts - which one would expect an encyclopedia to delineate. Also, since this article has been ear-marked for clean-up, I would expect that further discussion on the subject would be appropriate before clean-up is commenced. Since there was really no active discussion on this, I should accept responsibility for not responding sooner to the last two comments, in particular.

this former logo is from 1999 or from July 2000. I have solid evidence dating back to July of 2000 but nothing more than educated guessing as to the 1999 part, mainly from deducing things from facts mentioned in the station's article (i.e. "In 1999, WDUV would swap its frequency with
Classic rock station WTBT, moving from 103.5 to the stronger 105.5 signal (WTBT is now
WFUS, "US 103-5"
country music). However, both frequencies would retain their transmitting locations and cities of license—after the swap, WDUV became licensed in
New Port Richey with transmitting facilities in
Holiday, while WTBT / WFUS, whose transmitter was located in
Riverview, became licensed in Bradenton. (That station has since been relicensed to
Gulfport.)"). The contents of the quotation in mind, the first "5" in "105.5" is a different color, an indication that the logo is highlighting on the swap in frequency from "103.5" to "105.5" from 1999, an indicator that the logo was perhaps created very close to the point in time when the 1999 frequency swap took place during (just saying).
The reason why I presumed the old logo for
WDUV began usage in July 2000 was because that was when the website for that Radio Station was built…however, the article for
WDUV states that the frequency swap from current-day
WFUS (as well as the sale of the station to
Cox Radio) occurred back in 1999. I'd presume that was when the logo dates back to… however, because the websites only dates back to July of 2000, I haven't any way to know for certain whether that was the logo back in 1999 (i.e. I haven't any sources proving
this former logo's presence prior to July of 2000); hence, I declared it to date back to July of 2000. Perhaps, that's the why the year the image ought to be copyrighted to should, indeed, be 2000 (as opposed to 1999)? I'm not sure how this works. Please, help shed some light on this situation. I was only able to prove the logo's usage back to July of 2000 but I have a reason to believe (or personal suspicion) that it in fact dates back to 1999 but I haven't any way of proving it. Should it be listed on Wikipedia as being copyrighted for and created during the time it can be proven back to?
Also, prior to July of 2000,
this former logo existed in offline forms only (presumably Bumper Stickers, Letterhead, etc.) but the electronic variation (i.e. pixels and
JPEG files and whatnot and so forth) of the logo was not yet in existence until July of 2000. Also, who's to say that
Cox Radio created a logo for the station immediately? Lots of radio stations have been known to go for several months with no logos (especially before the Internet became popular), especially during those awkward in-between-owners phases (such as what
WDUV experienced throughout the year, 1999). But the website's archives back to July of 2000 are hard evidence of the logo's existence back then (but fails to prove it's existence back to 1999).
The websites for other
Cox Radio stations from the
Tampa, Florida market can be archived back to early 2000, while
WDUV's website can only be archived back to July of that year (an indication that perhaps it can be deduced that
Clear Channel Communications sold
WDUV to
Cox Radio sometime in mid-2000); therefore,
this former logo has been accurately-copyrighted to the year, 2000. No solid evidence exists as to whether the logo is from 1999 or anytime before July 2000.

Which of these former logos fall within " public domain" and which of these former logos qualify for " threshold of originality"? I'm just curious.

Hello, I'm Kkj11210. I was the user who recently made a request on the AutoWikiBrowser page which you've declined. First of all, I was wondering if the types of edits were necessary for approval of the page. The Wikipedia:AutoWikiBrowser/CheckPage states that only 500 mainspace edits are necessary. But in the case that the types are distinguished, I would like to explain my reasons for the contributions and the request for AWB
I would like to use AWB to perform main cleanups of Korean articles. For instance, the first goal that I've set was using AWB to change the outdated address systems to newer systems, which I've discussed here. I believe that AWB can help a lot with that. Moreover, there are other general cleanups like the cases above which AWB will really be helpful with. Following the idea, I've been mostly doing vandalism reverts because I was waiting for the AWB access. If you look at the 500th to 1000th contributions, you can see that I had been contributing to Korean articles; I've stopped since I wished to start general cleanups first, then move onto individual articles. Please reconsider your decision and leave a message. Thanks! KJ click here 23:26, 17 February 2014 (UTC)

Whenever uploading an image in a non-native format (such as uploading a
JPEG Image as a
PNG Image file with Transparent Background) to a Wikipedia article, how does the image conversion take place? Does the conversion happen via the Upload Wizard or is the conversion made via software installed on the user's computer (such as
Adobe Photoshop or similar digital graphic editing computer software)?
If I really have my heart set on having
this image uploaded as a
PNG Image file to the
WNYQ article, where may I open a discussion requesting this task done? It would really mean a lot to me if
this image could be uploaded to the
WNYQ article as a
PNG Image file to appear at
this link.

I'd like to request the upload of some logos to some radio stations but I'd like specifically for you to be the Uploader of those images. That being said, I've been very conservative lately in my submittals of those Upload Requests. Per your acknowledgement, I will add those Image Upload Requests to the "
Files For Upload" page. I don't want any "Certain Someone" uploaders to get to my requests before you do. I've got plenty of logo requests that I've been working on so please let me know whether you have time for plenty or just a couple. Needless to say, I'm really getting anxious to see those logos appear in those articles, one after the next. I'm ready when you are. Just give me the word (via a response to this message, I mean) and I'll add those updates to
the proper page so that YOU (not any "Certain Someone" uploaders) can get to them first…
Also, Question: How do you upload images where the source file is in a
Small Web Format format? What if the source file is a Flash file and you wish to upload the image to the article as a
PNG file?
Thirdly,
this file replaces
this file; therefore, the
GIF Image link ought to be deleted.

Note at WP:BLP/N, one editor wants to redo the Phil Robertson RfC (sigh) and insists that the material, because it has been in the Duck Dynasty article for three months is now sacrosanct. I happen to think the two articles are seriously over entwined with this "stuff." I suggested that redoing RfCs at the ten day mark is contrary to Wikipedia policy, but two editors seem to back him on having as many RfCs as he needs <g>. Cheers.

Hi, thanks for uploading the logo for OSA for me. I was curious about why it was uploaded to Commons.

You seem to do a lot of the archiving for the PERM pages, and I'm wondering if you do it manually or via a script. If you're doing it with a script, I would like to have a look at that script so I can suggest a couple "improvements" as I see them (I did some manual archiving of the requests for reviewer the other day and saw some minor issues that could easily be resolved). If you're doing it manually, then you are doing a great job, but I'm still curious as to your process for it. If there is no script, perhaps I can create one to make it easier. Thanks! — {{U| Technical 13}} ( t • e • c) 18:48, 10 March 2014 (UTC)
1. I'm finally creating an account for myself here on Wikipedia. I'm just uncertain about whether the character limit for a Username is 42 characters (or just 40). I've generated a Username already and will end it with "1999" (if the character limit is 42) or "99" (if the character limit is just 40).
2. I'm finally heeding your advice to generate my own account. I'm just not sure how I'd ever know how to include the proper information on an image's Info Page, once I upload an image.
3. I also might struggle to guess correctly as to whether or not an image falls within "
Public domain". I've saved all 110 Image Upload Requests into a Microsoft Word document. If you'd ever elect to upload a set limit at a time, I'd be happy to add them to the "Files for Upload" page, little-by-little, and you could upload them gradually, over the period of several days. I think it is a great idea for you to set limits with me. "Life Without Boundaries" certainly isn't always all that it's cracked up to be. If you'd be willing to set limits with me towards how many updates I may submit in a given day/week to Wiki's "Files for Upload" page, I'd promise to abide by it. I feel that I've done an incredible job contributing to Wikipedia and feel that my contributions are definitely benefiting Wiki; I also feel that I might need to practice a bit with uploading images, because I wouldn't be good at it right away. I'd be willing to cooperate with you and not overkill on how many Upload Requests I make. I could keep them archived somewhere on my computer (such as in a Microsoft Word document) and add them gradually to the Wiki "Files for Upload" page.

|Article=
, |Source=
and the "Destination filename" field. You can also fill in the |Used for=
(if the articles name is different, than the radio stations - usefull for HD logos) and the |Owner=
parameters too. For free images you should use the
UploadWizard on Commons, where you don't need additional permissions to upload files. (It's fairly easy to use, and you can make links to Wikipedia with the {{
w}} template there.)DONE! I've created a new account with Wikipedia! Here's my new Wiki Account name! Before I start uploading logos myself, though, I want to make certain that I educate myself as to how to perform a legitimate logo uploading procedure, for I am well aware of the fact that Wikipedia has been known to have some fairly strict copyright rules (and I want to do everything in my power to avoid getting warned and/or blocked from the site due to copyright and/or term violations).

Hi Armbrust - thanks for sorting out the remaining sports festival banners and subst'ing the cfr templates. Out of interest: does AWB offer a more efficient way of tagging things like this? I've been doing a bit more category work lately to resolve some long-standing issues and I've found this type of work very time consuming. Hours of my life on very basic technical tasks is a bit of a waste all round. SFB 11:38, 21 March 2014 (UTC)

Under some circumstances with an image being uploaded to Wikipedia falling under " Public domain," you seem to set a Maximum Dimension restriction at 930 Pixels, where whatever the larger of the two dimensions are (length versus width) gets kept within 930 Pixels. Sometimes, while uploading " Public domain" images to Wikipedia, you restrict the larger dimension to 930 Pixels and sometimes you don't. Of course, there's also something else known as "Trademark" and I'm not really sure how that's different (I mean that I'm asking you, because I'm not really in-the-know about "Copyright" versus "Trademark" and how they differ). Specifically, I'm asking you this question, because I'm considering uploading a PNG version of a logo that's already uploaded (but in a JPEG format). That image is identical to the one I wish to upload and it falls within " Public domain" (as indicated on the Image Upload/Info Page); although, the one I want to upload into a PNG format is larger than 930 Pixels with its larger dimension. (It's 1,425px × 525px, by the way, and I'm wondering whether I should scale that " Public domain" image down to 930px × 343px.) Oh, and here's the image that I'm thinking about uploading but as a PNG file for KORL-HD4. I'm also considering uploading a Higher-Quality version of the Former Logo for WBGR-LP but I am also struggling with that 930 Pixel dilemma with that station as well. How do you determine when to limit the size to 930 Pixels (larger dimension) and when not to? DizzyMosquitoRadio99 ( talk) 18:30, 25 March 2014 (UTC)
