Hello again. Sorry to bother you, but it seems the vandal on 94.98.228.105 ( talk · contribs · deleted contribs · filter log · WHOIS · RDNS · RBLs · http · block user · block log) has returned, this time using 2.90.238.180 ( talk · contribs · deleted contribs · filter log · WHOIS · RDNS · RBLs · http · block user · block log). Although vandalizing different articles this time, pattern is the same. Spacetoon (Indonesia) is the common denominator. Can you block the latter address just in case?

I've just discovered that I was given a DYK credit for helping to expand Yemen women's national football team. As far as I can tell, my only contribution to that article was to comment out the mainspace categories when it was still located in User:LauraHale's userspace. It may seem to someone paying particular attention that I'm trying to weasel out of my DYK QPQ duty by getting a weird credit nullified, but I do still intend to fulfil my QPQ obligation - I was just curious to know why such a minor edit was deserving of a DYK credit. – Pee Jay 04:49, 14 January 2015 (UTC)

Hey Crisco. The draft revisions have been stewing on the Talk page for a while now and I think have had time to steep. Keeping up with changes in article-space to make sure they are reflected in the draft is starting to be a pest though. I was wondering if you would be comfortable performing the copy/paste of the draft into article-space? Another editor gave me the "go ahead" template, but given that some of the edits are on controversial issues (lawsuits), I didn't think it would be a good idea for me to do so, lest an editor with a strong interest/opinion in the subject later accuse me of impropriety on the subject.

On 16 January 2015, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Men of the Docks, which you recently created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that Men of the Docks, by George Bellows, was the first major American painting to be acquired by the National Gallery in London? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Men of the Docks. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page ( here's how, live views, daily totals), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page. |

Hello my fellow Wikipedian,
Thanks for taking your time off to help hapless Wikipedians and otherwise stucked-up articles find their way to the forefront of other non-English speaking readers. I would hope that I have approached you the right way.
Nonetheless, I humbly seek your intervention to translate the following pages from English to your native tongue, since I gathered that it may mean something to Wiki readers in other languages.

BlueMoonset ( talk) 23:52, 17 January 2015 (UTC)
Hafs, you shouldn't back down like that and withdraw. You need to stand by (stick up for) your ideas. You need to beat them at their own game. You need to use words to persuade others that you are right. Did you see what I wrote? I wrote all that I could (you could say more) -- but you've got to stay calm. Many editors are academics (professors at universities) and are used to arguing their point of view, and they're good at it. You have to be as good as they are at arguing your point of view.
1) First, you clarify the issues.
2) Second, you concede (acknowledge) whatever they are right on: "You are right in saying that...., but.....". Then you take each of their points, one at a time, and come up with reasons why they are wrong.
3) Third, if you can, come up with more reasons why you are right.
4) Fourth, you re-state your point of view with different words.
Your mistake is getting emotional about it. If you do what I am telling you, you will be surprised. There are probably some editors who are just reading but not saying anything. If you make your argument in the way I suggested, those editors, and even some who felt the opposite a little while ago, may come to agree with you.
You could also enlist my help. I can help you write your rebuttal (response) if you wish.
C'mon, Hafs. I'm on your side. I agree with you about the spirit of collaboration. I think the others were a bit pedantic and mean-spirited about the whole thing. Do not give up. Please go back and undo those edits canceling out your votes for images and saying you are giving up.
I have an idea. I think we should go ahead and nominate each one of those Van Gogh images. You can do one. User:The Herald can do another. Crisco can do another. Xanty can do another. etc. and little by little, we'll get all of them promoted. Or, we could do co-nominations with two editors to rile them a little bit: 1st one: Hafs and The Herald. 2nd one: The Herald and Crisco. 3rd one: Crisco and me. 4th one: me and Xanty, etc. Looking forward to many future FP nominations, CorinneSD ( talk) 00:06, 19 January 2015 (UTC)

Me and Phil got all muddled up with the question we asked about the Breakfast time image. The problem with the file is not the file naming. The problem is that File:Hanna Pauli - Frukostdags.JPG doesn't have the correct source. It is not a photo. It is a cropped Google file but it say it is a photo... I mean it is NOT the wrong file, but the wrong source. The guy overwrote the original photo with a cropped version of the google file. Without mentioning it in the section = source, on the file data. If that can be fixed than the file is fine. If it could be fixed, maybe it can be nominated. Phil was giving this one to me a long time ago as Wikilove and we just wrote an article on it (no snatching tp-s...Phil has first right on this) A link to the Google art file on Commons?

I'm rather new at participating in the FP nomination process. I read the minimum size for FPs is 1500 x 1500. Is that set in stone? I found one that is 1415 x 1416, that's why I'm asking. If there's no leeway, it's not a big deal. I'm just curious. APK whisper in my ear 07:09, 21 January 2015 (UTC)
Just checking in again. I might just go ahead and move it into article-space, considering I was given the "go ahead" template and can't seem to find anyone to make the edit; probably in part because it's actually 30+ small edits, which are difficult to orchestrate in this manner.

Hi Crisco- Just got back from four long scanning days at the Smithsonian. Only world currency this trip and I'll have some goodies up soon. There is an editor on Large Denominations of US Currency who insists on adding bogus images of fake US bonds. They insist that these are the notes that the Fed and BEP never told anyone about due to "secrecy". Would you mind having a quick look at the three images posted [2] and let me know if you think they meet criteria for deletion (improper claim of fair use, no license in connection to the original website, improper attribution of authorship to government agencies, etc...).

First, I must say that your body of work on WP is remarkable. I was in awe over the number of FAs you've either created or collaborated on. I've only been through 1 FA review so I have an idea of what it takes, and really, really admire what you've accomplished. The images you've captured are amazing, too. In fact, you are an "all-around" amazing editor, and I feel honored to meet your acquaintance. Hafspajen introduced me to a whole new level of WP regarding FP, and I find it very uplifting. It adds a whole new dimension to my editing and photography. Ok, so my question to you - I've been looking at getting a new Canon 5D Mark iii body, and wondered what your thoughts are about that model? I saw on eBay where they sell for $1,000 less than what you can buy them retail in the U.S. However, they come from Japan. In a disconnected happenstance, I received a form email from Canon advising customers that purchases of cameras outside the U.S. were not warranted, yet the seller on Amazon says they are - (a 2nd source?). Have you had any experiences with that? I was also curious to know what lens you would choose to shoot birds from say....100 ft. away? Thanks for your time - Atsme☯ Consult 05:35, 27 January 2015 (UTC)
Great info, guys - thank you. I bought a Canon 2x II extender a few hours ago, but I'm not quite sure how I'll use it. Probably for static macro on objects I can't get close enough to shoot with the Canon 100mm dedicated macro, the latter of which I use most u/w. I don't have an issue using MF with the 100-400 lens under the right conditions. I really don't want to pack anything much heavier than that on my own unless I'm actually on paid assignment. Then I can rent whatever lens I need, and pay a local to schlep it all for me. Thinking seriously about going back to Tierra del Fuego, and spending a month just shooting in and around Ushuaia. Great photo ops if you like penguins, glaciers, mountains, and incredible waterfalls. Atsme☯ Consult 01:57, 28 January 2015 (UTC)
Hey, Crisco!
Sorry about the contact out of the blue... as well as the lateness of it... my computer just got back from the shop after a slew of issues (hense the giant gap in my editing history).
Got a quick question for you. What was the justification for closing Wikipedia:Featured list candidates/List of Space Shuttle missions/archive1? Specifically, I'm looking for feedback as to how I can improve my FLC submissions ( this is the second one I've had declined). I know there's probably no way to re-open the List of Space Shuttle missions one, though I am a little disappointed how it turned out.

Thanks for uploading File:Halim Perdanakusuma.jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:
{{di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}}
below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing <your reason>
with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).
If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link.

Many thanks for your recent thoughts and comments at the informal PR for Casino Royale (novel): The changes you suggested have been taken on board and implemented, and the article is much, much stronger than it was before. As such, I've gone ahead and opened the FAC, and I hope you will have time to have another look through at some point in the future. Thanks again. – SchroCat ( talk) 12:16, 31 January 2015 (UTC)
I was just looking at the latest edit to Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, and I wonder if adding all those dates at that place in the article is correct. [8] CorinneSD ( talk) 17:30, 31 January 2015 (UTC)
Perhaps I've misunderstood, but I was under the impression that a FP illustrates the subject in a compelling way, making the viewer want to know more. A photograph has appropriate lighting to maximize visible detail; diagrams and other illustrations are clear and informative. Example: if a section in the article about a mosque describes a unique feature of that mosque, such as the ceiling, and the nomination is a photo of that ceiling, but not of the complete interior or exterior of the mosque, is that acceptable or is a full shot required?

Hi Crisco - I just wanted to share a couple of thoughts with you regarding u/w photography and FP evaluations, primarily because I was hoping you could help suggest ways to improve non-diver understanding (if such a thing is possible) about the basics of u/w photography and what to look for, such as uniqueness and technical difficulties involved in capturing a front cover or in WP terms, an image with EV. Do you think perhaps we could write a brief essay to accompany the FP criteria? My background includes 8 years of teaching u/w photography, and I was also an assignment writer/photographer for a popular dive magazine as well as for a fleet of live-aboard dive boats. My official status now is NITROX Instructor/Advanced Open Water-Specialty Instructor Emeritus (two different cert agencies). Companies actually paid me to get wet and take pictures - if only they had known. One of my u/w images was licensed by the USPS for inclusion in a Limited Edition Stamp Collection, and I've also licensed u/w photos and/or digital footage to National Geographic, Discovery, various dive magazines, yada yada - the point being, I'm not a neophyte. If you get a chance, I was hoping you would take a peek at the following two articles which explain in a little more detail what I was trying to describe in a few sentences about u/w macro photography and DOF. [9] [10] Atsme☯ Consult 01:17, 1 February 2015 (UTC)
I'm preparing to roll out new, updated range maps for many lemur species. This includes the map you reviewed at the Fork-marked lemur FAC. The new maps are a little more compressed horizontally and made in QGIS using freely available SHP files (public domain), which I trust more than some of the SVG files used in the previous map template. I was wondering if you could look at the ones I've uploaded so far and give you thoughts as if you were reviewing them at FAC.
Feedback on appearance is welcome as well. If you're happy with these examples, I will prepare a new map for the current FAC candidate and many other lemur articles. If I need to make some small changes first, that's fine. – Maky « talk » 07:02, 31 January 2015 (UTC)

This ivory carving is a gift from China presented to the United Nations in 1974. It depicts the Chengtu-Kunming railway, which was opened to traffic in 1970 and covers a distance of over 1,000 kilometers. The railway connects two Chinese provinces, Yunnan Province in the South and Szechuan Province in the North.
The sculpture was carved from eight elephant tusks, and it is said that 98 people worked on it for more than two years. It is amazing for its detail - it is possible to see even tiny people carved inside the train. Hafspajen ( talk) 17:48, 7 February 2015 (UTC)

Hi Crisco, I've been playing around with the galleries to try and get both the boxes the same size, and to have the images the same height. It's not possible to set the box width and the images: the box width over rides the forcing of the image sizes and has the images at different sizes. Just forcing the images to be the same heights means that the two galleries will be of different widths. Any preferences, or further thoughts? Cheers - SchroCat ( talk) 10:44, 20 February 2015 (UTC)

Hello again. Sorry to bother you, but it seems the vandal on 94.98.228.105 ( talk · contribs · deleted contribs · filter log · WHOIS · RDNS · RBLs · http · block user · block log) has returned, this time using 2.90.238.180 ( talk · contribs · deleted contribs · filter log · WHOIS · RDNS · RBLs · http · block user · block log).

I've just discovered that I was given a DYK credit for helping to expand Yemen women's national football team. As far as I can tell, my only contribution to that article was to comment out the mainspace categories when it was still located in User:LauraHale's userspace. It may seem to someone paying particular attention that I'm trying to weasel out of my DYK QPQ duty by getting a weird credit nullified, but I do still intend to fulfil my QPQ obligation - I was just curious to know why such a minor edit was deserving of a DYK credit. – Pee Jay 04:49, 14 January 2015 (UTC)

Hey Crisco. The draft revisions have been stewing on the Talk page for a while now and I think have had time to steep. Keeping up with changes in article-space to make sure they are reflected in the draft is starting to be a pest though. I was wondering if you would be comfortable performing the copy/paste of the draft into article-space? Another editor gave me the "go ahead" template, but given that some of the edits are on controversial issues (lawsuits), I didn't think it would be a good idea for me to do so, lest an editor with a strong interest/opinion in the subject later accuse me of impropriety on the subject.

On 16 January 2015, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Men of the Docks, which you recently created or substantially expanded.

The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Men of the Docks. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page ( here's how, live views, daily totals), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page. |

BlueMoonset ( talk) 23:52, 17 January 2015 (UTC)
Hafs, you shouldn't back down like that and withdraw. You need to stand by (stick up for) your ideas. You need to beat them at their own game. You need to use words to persuade others that you are right. Did you see what I wrote? I wrote all that I could (you could say more) -- but you've got to stay calm. Many editors are academics (professors at universities) and are used to arguing their point of view, and they're good at it. You have to be as good as they are at arguing your point of view.
1) First, you clarify the issues.
2) Second, you concede (acknowledge) whatever they are right on: "You are right in saying that...., but.....". Then you take each of their points, one at a time, and come up with reasons why they are wrong.
3) Third, if you can, come up with more reasons why you are right.
4) Fourth, you re-state your point of view with different words.
Your mistake is getting emotional about it. If you do what I am telling you, you will be surprised. There are probably some editors who are just reading but not saying anything. If you make your argument in the way I suggested, those editors, and even some who felt the opposite a little while ago, may come to agree with you.
You could also enlist my help. I can help you write your rebuttal (response) if you wish.
C'mon, Hafs. I'm on your side. I agree with you about the spirit of collaboration. I think the others were a bit pedantic and mean-spirited about the whole thing. Do not give up. Please go back and undo those edits canceling out your votes for images and saying you are giving up.
I have an idea. I think we should go ahead and nominate each one of those Van Gogh images. You can do one. User:The Herald can do another. Crisco can do another. Xanty can do another. etc. and little by little, we'll get all of them promoted. Or, we could do co-nominations with two editors to rile them a little bit: 1st one: Hafs and The Herald. 2nd one: The Herald and Crisco. 3rd one: Crisco and me. 4th one: me and Xanty, etc. Looking forward to many future FP nominations, CorinneSD ( talk) 00:06, 19 January 2015 (UTC)

Me and Phil got all muddled up with the question we asked about the Breakfast time image. The problem with the file is not the file naming. The problem is that File:Hanna Pauli - Frukostdags.JPG doesn't have the correct source. It is not a photo. It is a cropped Google file but it say it is a photo... I mean it is NOT the wrong file, but the wrong source. The guy overwrote the original photo with a cropped version of the google file. Without mentioning it in the section = source, on the file data. If that can be fixed than the file is fine. If it could be fixed, maybe it can be nominated. Phil was giving this one to me a long time ago as Wikilove and we just wrote an article on it (no snatching tp-s...Phil has first right on this) A link to the Google art file on Commons?

Just checking in again. I might just go ahead and move it into article-space, considering I was given the "go ahead" template and can't seem to find anyone to make the edit; probably in part because it's actually 30+ small edits, which are difficult to orchestrate in this manner.

Hi Crisco- Just got back from four long scanning days at the Smithsonian. Only world currency this trip and I'll have some goodies up soon. There is an editor on Large Denominations of US Currency who insists on adding bogus images of fake US bonds. They insist that these are the notes that the Fed and BEP never told anyone about due to "secrecy". Would you mind having a quick look at the three images posted [2] and let me know if you think they meet criteria for deletion (improper claim of fair use, no license in connection to the original website, improper attribution of authorship to government agencies, etc...).

First, I must say that your body of work on WP is remarkable. I was in awe over the number of FAs you've either created or collaborated on. I've only been through 1 FA review so I have an idea of what it takes, and really, really admire what you've accomplished. The images you've captured are amazing, too. In fact, you are an "all-around" amazing editor, and I feel honored to meet your acquaintance. Hafspajen introduced me to a whole new level of WP regarding FP, and I find it very uplifting. It adds a whole new dimension to my editing and photography. Ok, so my question to you - I've been looking at getting a new Canon 5D Mark iii body, and wondered what your thoughts are about that model? I saw on eBay where they sell for $1,000 less than what you can buy them retail in the U.S. However, they come from Japan. In a disconnected happenstance, I received a form email from Canon advising customers that purchases of cameras outside the U.S. were not warranted, yet the seller on Amazon says they are - (a 2nd source?). Have you had any experiences with that? I was also curious to know what lens you would choose to shoot birds from say....100 ft. away? Thanks for your time - Atsme☯ Consult 05:35, 27 January 2015 (UTC)
Great info, guys - thank you. I bought a Canon 2x II extender a few hours ago, but I'm not quite sure how I'll use it. Probably for static macro on objects I can't get close enough to shoot with the Canon 100mm dedicated macro, the latter of which I use most u/w. I don't have an issue using MF with the 100-400 lens under the right conditions. I really don't want to pack anything much heavier than that on my own unless I'm actually on paid assignment. Then I can rent whatever lens I need, and pay a local to schlep it all for me. Thinking seriously about going back to Tierra del Fuego, and spending a month just shooting in and around Ushuaia. Great photo ops if you like penguins, glaciers, mountains, and incredible waterfalls. Atsme☯ Consult 01:57, 28 January 2015 (UTC)
Hey, Crisco!
Sorry about the contact out of the blue... as well as the lateness of it... my computer just got back from the shop after a slew of issues (hense the giant gap in my editing history).
Got a quick question for you. What was the justification for closing Wikipedia:Featured list candidates/List of Space Shuttle missions/archive1? Specifically, I'm looking for feedback as to how I can improve my FLC submissions ( this is the second one I've had declined). I know there's probably no way to re-open the List of Space Shuttle missions one, though I am a little disappointed how it turned out.

Thanks for uploading File:Halim Perdanakusuma.jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:
{{di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}}
below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing <your reason>
with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).
If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Stefan2 ( talk) 00:19, 31 January 2015 (UTC)

I was just looking at the latest edit to Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, and I wonder if adding all those dates at that place in the article is correct. [8] CorinneSD ( talk) 17:30, 31 January 2015 (UTC)
Perhaps I've misunderstood, but I was under the impression that a FP illustrates the subject in a compelling way, making the viewer want to know more. A photograph has appropriate lighting to maximize visible detail; diagrams and other illustrations are clear and informative. Example: if a section in the article about a mosque describes a unique feature of that mosque, such as the ceiling, and the nomination is a photo of that ceiling, but not of the complete interior or exterior of the mosque, is that acceptable or is a full shot required?

Hi Crisco - I just wanted to share a couple of thoughts with you regarding u/w photography and FP evaluations, primarily because I was hoping you could help suggest ways to improve non-diver understanding (if such a thing is possible) about the basics of u/w photography and what to look for, such as uniqueness and technical difficulties involved in capturing a front cover or in WP terms, an image with EV. Do you think perhaps we could write a brief essay to accompany the FP criteria? My background includes 8 years of teaching u/w photography, and I was also an assignment writer/photographer for a popular dive magazine as well as for a fleet of live-aboard dive boats. My official status now is NITROX Instructor/Advanced Open Water-Specialty Instructor Emeritus (two different cert agencies). Companies actually paid me to get wet and take pictures - if only they had known. One of my u/w images was licensed by the USPS for inclusion in a Limited Edition Stamp Collection, and I've also licensed u/w photos and/or digital footage to National Geographic, Discovery, various dive magazines, yada yada - the point being, I'm not a neophyte. If you get a chance, I was hoping you would take a peek at the following two articles which explain in a little more detail what I was trying to describe in a few sentences about u/w macro photography and DOF.

I'm preparing to roll out new, updated range maps for many lemur species. This includes the map you reviewed at the Fork-marked lemur FAC. The new maps are a little more compressed horizontally and made in QGIS using freely available SHP files (public domain), which I trust more than some of the SVG files used in the previous map template. I was wondering if you could look at the ones I've uploaded so far and give you thoughts as if you were reviewing them at FAC.
Feedback on appearance is welcome as well. If you're happy with these examples, I will prepare a new map for the current FAC candidate and many other lemur articles. If I need to make some small changes first, that's fine. – Maky « talk » 07:02, 31 January 2015 (UTC)

This ivory carving is a gift from China presented to the United Nations in 1974. It depicts the Chengtu-Kunming railway, which was opened to traffic in 1970 and covers a distance of over 1,000 kilometers. The railway connects two Chinese provinces, Yunnan Province in the South and Szechuan Province in the North.
The sculpture was carved from eight elephant tusks, and it is said that 98 people worked on it for more than two years. It is amazing for its detail - it is possible to see even tiny people carved inside the train. Hafspajen ( talk) 17:48, 7 February 2015 (UTC)

Hi Crisco, I've been playing around with the galleries to try and get both the boxes the same size, and to have the images the same height. It's not possible to set the box width and the images: the box width over rides the forcing of the image sizes and has the images at different sizes. Just forcing the images to be the same heights means that the two galleries will be of different widths. Any preferences, or further thoughts? Cheers - SchroCat ( talk) 10:44, 20 February 2015 (UTC)
