Immagine Berlusconi

In riferimento all'ex-immagine Image:Nano pelato tra Giganti.jpg ti pregherei di non caricare più immagini con quel titolo poiché - oltre ad essere un duplicato - è offensiva e non rispecchia in maniera obiettiva la sintesi dell'immagine. ----ßøuñçêY2K 18:16, 18 April 2008 (UTC)

Per completezza riporto sotto la discussione intercorsa tra Eh101 e ßøuñçêY2K in relazione all'immagine in oggetto:

==Segnalazione per cancellazione==
Ciao, ti segnalo l'immagine Image:Nano pelato tra Giganti.jpg, il cui titolo è chiaramente offensivo
e inappropriato. 
Come si segnala per cancellazione una immagine su commons ?      
Esiste un template simile a quello sulle altre wiki per patrollare ? Saluti e buon lavoro. 
--Eh101 23:10, 14 April 2008 (UTC)

== Nano tra i giganti ==

Prima di cancellarla, salvati l'immagine sul computer e ricaricala con un nome più appropriato.
Dopo  di ché segnala (anche a me) che l'immagine è da cancellare.
Ciao! ----ßøuñçêY2K 20:44, 16 April 2008 (UTC)

Non c'è bisogno di ricaricarla. Esisteva già come Image:Chirac Bush Blair Berlusconi.jpg dal  2005. 
É il simpatico User:Jacopo Werther che sembra avere uno strano concetto di Commons e qualche giorno
fa si è messo a giocare mettendo a rischio di critiche sulla stampa il progetto. 
Su it.wikipedia conosco i template per i vandali, qui cosa si fa ? 
Buon lavoro --Eh101 20:25, 17 April 2008 (UTC)

Ho provveduto a cancellarla. Generalmente basta segnalarla ad un amministratore 
(o in maniera più lunga nella pagina delle proposte per le cancellazioni) 
e la cosa si risolve. ----ßøuñçêY2K 18:14, 18 April 2008 (UTC)

Onde evitare equivoci mi scuso anticipatamente con ßøuñçêY2K e con Eh101 per aver riportato sulla mia pagina di discussione quanto sopra. Dato però che il tutto mi riguarda in prima persona, ritengo di avere il pieno diritto di tenere una memoria storica dell'intera segnalazione. --Jacopo Werther 17:34, 21 April 2008 (UTC)

Io parlerei più propriamente di didascalia satirica dell'Immagine in oggetto.

Ricordo il pronunciamento della Corte di Cassazione che si è sentita in dovere di dare una definizione giuridica di cosa debba intendersi per satira:

« È quella manifestazione di pensiero talora di altissimo livello che nei tempi si è addossata il compito di castigare ridendo mores, ovvero di indicare alla pubblica opinione aspetti criticabili o esecrabili di persone, al fine di ottenere, mediante il riso suscitato, un esito finale di carattere etico, correttivo cioè verso il bene. »

(Prima sezione penale della Corte di Cassazione, sentenza n. 9246/2006)

La satira è una manifestazione fondamentale della libertà di pensiero in ogni Stato Civile e Democratico.

La censura è invece tipica dei regimi dispotici e dittatoriali.

Scambiare per vandalismo la satira politica mi sembra un atteggiamento chiaramente censorio ed antidemocratico.

Tuttavia niente paura o panico!!! La cosa non si ripeterà più, così potremo tutti dormire sonni tranquilli!!!

Cordiali e sinceri saluti e Buon Lavoro --Jacopo Werther 21:54, 18 April 2008 (UTC)

Questa è una enciclopedia. Quando troverò voci scritte in tono satirico in una enciclopedia affermata, concorderò con la tesi così dottamente esposta, ma temo completamente fuori contesto. Lo spazio che ci viene messo a disposizione gratuitamente, non contempla nel regolamento esistente che lo si possa usare per fini diversi da quelli enciclopedici. Mi preme precisare, che avrei segnalato ugualmente anomalie simili, anche se riferite a politici dello schieramento opposto. Concludo esprimendo il mio parere difforme all'interpretazione del pronunciamento della Cassazione, in quanto ritengo che in caso di querela, l'autore di una frase del genere uscirebbe soccombente. La cosa accade continuamente a operatori dello spettacolo, i quali possono tranquillamente pagare le sanzioni che vengono irrogate, anzi ne ricavano pubblicità. Un progetto come Wikipedia, non è in grado di gestire con vantaggio nè economicamente, nè sotto il profilo dell'immagine, una vertenza legale di questo tipo. Saluti. --Eh101 22:54, 18 April 2008 (UTC)

Aggiungo anche io una cosa. Non voglio mettere in dubbio la libertà d'espressione e di satira, ma questo non è il luogo adatto per farla. Inoltre riporto quanto scritto nelle guide di Commons: "Dato che i nomi criptici rendono molto più difficile la ricerca, scegline uno il più possibile adatto per Wikimedia Commons."

Ciao! ----ßøuñçêY2K 20:05, 21 April 2008 (UTC)

Preciso innanzitutto che non è mia intenzione polemizzare e che concordo con il fatto che questo
non è il luogo per fare satira. 
Tuttavia perché in Wikimedia Commons esistono categorie come Category:Caricatures of politicians
e sono regolarmente caricate immagini come Image:Bush Stencil.jpg,
Image:Michael Dickinson. Tyrant's Pants.jpg (quest’ultima addirittura nella gallery
George W. Bush, nella sezione George_W._Bush#Protests),
Image:EvilBushCostumer.jpg, Image:Karl Meersman Sarkozy caricature.jpg, 
Image:Bush Choice.jpg, Image:Arielsharonsecretlove.gif ed altre ancora…
L’immagine da me caricata conteneva (e contiene!) note caricaturali in quanto è evidente 
una chiara differenza tra alcuni tratti caratteristici della fisionomia di Chirac, Bush e Blair
e quelli di Silvio Berlusconi.
Nano pelato non è un nome criptico ma è uno dei tanti nomignoli satirici affibbiati
a Silvio Berlusconi come (per par condicio) Mortadella lo è per Romano Prodi. 
Potrai obbiettare che le caricature sono generalmente dei disegni e non delle foto, tuttavia 
come sai meglio di me, oggi l’uso massiccio della fotografia digitale e del fotoricco,
diventati ormai alla portata di tutti consentono di realizzare cose prima impensabili.
Nel nostro caso non è stato necessario neanche il fotoritocco…
Faccio presente (e già questo personaggio mi stà proprio antipatico…chissà perché?!!!? 
Forse perché in passato ha dato al sottoscritto - e a qualche altro milione di Italiani
- del  coglione!) che ho provveduto a rinominare Image:Nano pelato-Geoge W. Bush.jpg 
(immagine caricata l’08 marzo 2008) con Image:S. Berlusconi-George W. Bush.jpg
aggiungendo alla prima il template -Bad name|correctly named image-, ti pregherei pertanto 
di  cancellarla.
Mi assumo la piena e consapevole responsabilità di quanto scritto sopra.
A scanso di spiacevoli equivoci faccio presente che la citazione delle immagini
Image:Bush Stencil.jpg, Image:Michael Dickinson. Tyrant's Pants.jpg,   Image:EvilBushCostumer.jpg, 
Image:Karl Meersman Sarkozy caricature.jpg, Image:Bush Choice.jpg,   Image:Arielsharonsecretlove.gif
non costituisce in alcun modo  segnalazione per cancellazione.
Scusami per eventuali problemi e disagi che ti ho creato. Sinceri (e non formali) saluti
e Buon  Lavoro. Ciao! --Jacopo Werther 20:45, 22 April 2008 (UTC)

Devo obiettare. La categoria che mi hai linkato te contiene immagini di caricature fatte a personaggi noti. Le caricature sono fotografie fatte da utenti (o da altre persone) e caricate su commons con nomi normalissimi (caricature of ... per esempio). Tu invece hai caricato una fotografia già preesistente (il che non si può fare) con un nome non adatto alla descrizione dell'immagine (anche questo non va bene). A tal proposito ho dovuto cancellare anche l'immagine Image:Nano pelato-Geoge W. Bush.jpg. ----ßøuñçêY2K 23:53, 24 April 2008 (UTC)

My Request for Adminship

Dear Jacopo Werther, Thank you for voting in my request for adminship, which passed with 25 support, 4 oppose, and 3 neutral. I'm honoured that the community have granted me the administrative tools. If there is anything, then do not hesitate to ask me. Thank you for the nomination Rocket, it wouldn't have been possible otherwise. Kanonkas(talk)

I'm glad that you do trust me and supported my RfA. If you need any help be sure to leave me a note! --Kanonkas_(talk) 18:40, 31 May 2008 (UTC)

Diti’s RFA

Thank you for your trust Dear Jacopo Werther, Thank you for your support on my request for adminship, here at Commons. Now that I am a new sysop, I plan on starting small, closing obvious (to my eye) deletion requests at first, getting bolder with experience as and when my contributions here intensify. As a contributor, I look forward acquiring professional photography/video skills and equipment, that will allow me, one day, to proudly help Commons to be better (I would like to obtain my Master's degree while in Antarctica, more free videos and photos of this place would be truly great). Waiting for this moment to happen, let me address you once again my warmest thanks for your trust and your support in my successful request for adminship, that received 100% of  support votes. I do feel the tools given to me will be useful for the project as well as, obviously, for me. And even for you: besides questions regarding templates (about parser functions for example) and licensing, I will be henceforth there at any moment to perform administrative tasks like deletions, interventions on protected pages, and the like. You just have to ask me on my talk page or by IRC at #wikimedia-commons, and I will normally be glad to honor your request. →Diti the penguin — 16:20, 23 November 2008 (UTC)

Thank You

Hi Jacopo Werther, I would like to express my gratitude for your participation at my recent RfA, which succeeded with an overwhelming final count of 100 % support. I'm happy that so many people have put faith in my abilities as an admin and I promise to use the tools wisely and do my best not to let you down. Please do feel free to get in touch if you feel you can improve me in any way; I will be glad to listen to all comments. Again, thanks,Abigor talk 17:45, 12 January 2009 (UTC)

Thanks ..

...for the RFB support. --MichaelMaggs (talk) 09:24, 17 January 2009 (UTC)

Il file "Compagni"

Ciao, in merito al File:Compagni.jpg... Wow, ma dove l'hai trovato ? A Cesena ? Ma allora ha fatto il giro d'Italia. Io me lo ricordo da bambino che lo trovai nello studio di un mio parente (a Cava dei Tirreni -SA-), penso nella prima metà degli anni '80. All'epoca mi colpì come grafica (ne ho sempre avuto un'interesse), poi con la mia politicizzazione a sinistra lo rielaborai oltre una decina di anni dopo con altre invenzioni. Ti ringrazio per questo piccolo flashback d'infanzia. Ma l'autore chi è ? Che storia c'è ? --87.17.152.115 15:38, 28 January 2009 (UTC)

Your nomination File:Tree example IR.jpg

Hello! I have a question: How did you create your nomination for File:Tree example IR.jpg? I need to know for technical reasons; we are trying to implement a mechanism that will display a message when the voting period is over, and for some reason it wasn't included in your nomination. Did you use the button "Create new nomination" on Commons:Featured_picture_candidates?
Thank you in advance & have a great day. -- JovanCormac 09:44, 5 September 2009 (UTC)

Hi, thank you for your question. I'm Italian so I used the button "Candida una nuova immagine" (Italian for "Create new nomination") on Italian interface ("Commons:Segnalazioni per la vetrina") of Commons:Featured picture candidates. Maybe the Italian interface doesn't work well? Jacopo Werther (talk) 10:15, 5 September 2009 (UTC)

Thank you, I'll look into it. -- JovanCormac 10:17, 5 September 2009 (UTC)

Ok, I fixed it now. There were some old templates in use by other languages, which is also why the ImageAnnotator tool didn't work on them (it will now). I have also added the voting period flag to your nomination manually, and when the period is over it will display the appropriate text. -- JovanCormac 10:32, 5 September 2009 (UTC)

Categorizing multimedia files

Hi Jacopo,

thanks for your work on categorizing files uploaded by the Open Access Media Importer. Most of these changes were really helpful. However, I noticed that you have started to move materials out of categories named "Media from X" into similarly named "Videos of X1" or vice versa. This breaks the existing categorization by source, since X typically stands for the name of a journal and is categorized under "Media from Y", where Y is the respective publisher.

So please take a break on these recategorizations now and let's see together how we can fix the categorization by source and then move on to improve the categorization by topic and by media type.

Thanks and cheers, -- Daniel Mietchen - WiR/OS (talk) 21:22, 9 February 2013 (UTC)

Cats picture

Hi! I classify pictures of felines, and I note that you choose Category:Felidae for your pictures of cats. The right category for house cats is Category:Felis silvestris catus. There is a lot of cat pictures in Commons and in consequence a lot of categories (cats by color, by setting, by behavior, etc.). If you feel lost, just choose Felis silvestris catus ^^ Regards, --Abujoy (talk) 14:17, 11 March 2013 (UTC)

Daniel Ramirez zoo images from Flickr

Ciao Jacopo, I've come across File:Kudu & Peacock.jpeg and I doubt a lot that the antelope shown there should be a kudu. It looks much more like a springbok to me. So, what would do you think? Should we rename this? De728631 (talk) 15:08, 27 March 2013 (UTC)

Alright, I've tagged for renaming. File:Antelope & Peacock.jpg should be a neutral file name, so anyone can still adjust the description. De728631 (talk) 22:28, 28 March 2013 (UTC)

Categories

Hi, thank you for your great uploads. It would save us all a lot of time when you would use less but more precise categories. Reading COM:OVERCAT might help to explain that we don't use a tag based category system. If you are in doubt for a specific image group, you can give it any name; we will pick it up sooner or later. Enjoy. --Foroa (talk) 08:28, 30 March 2013 (UTC)

Review of Flickr images

When an image from Flickr has already been reviewed regarding license, I don't see the need to have it reviewed yet again.

Copyright status: File:Death1.jpg

This media may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading File:Death1.jpg. 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 created this file yourself, then you must provide a valid copyright tag. For example, you can tag it with {{self|GFDL|cc-by-sa-all}} to release it under the multi-license GFDL plus Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike All-version license or you can tag it with {{PD-self}} to release it into the public domain. (See Commons:Copyright tags for the full list of license tags that you can use.) 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 OTRS 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 speedy 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.

Dubbio foto

Ciao Jacopo, come sempre torno alla carica con domande sul possibile caricamento di file; stavolta però non mi addentro in strani siti istologici :). Per scrivere questa voce ancora grezza, mi sono imbattuto in un libro edito nel 1990 come opuscolo e che non è mai stato venduto (almeno credo visto che non presenta nè il costo nè l'ISBN). In tale pubblicazione sono presenti delle foto interessanti che però non riportano nessun dato, in particolare:

• 3 foto di parroci in attivo negli anni che vanno dal 1900 alla fine della Seconda Guerra Mondiale (di cui uno sicuramente morto nel 1955, come citato nel libro);
• 1 foto del comitato che ha presieduto i lavori della chiesa (che stimo essere stata scattata intorno al 1924, anno di inaugurazione);
• alcune foto del luogo, scattate prima degli anni 60 ad occhio;
• alcune foto delle processioni che venivano fatte (e anche qui a giudicare dai vestiti stimo degli anni 20-40).

Purtroppo a descrivere le foto si fa sempre fatica e spero che questa magra presentazione possa bastare. In alternativa c'è un modo per caricarle per mostrartele senza poi incappare in possibili copyviol (ovviamente non voluti)?

2012 Picture of the Year: A pair of European Bee-eaters in Ariège, France.

Dear Wikimedians,

Wikimedia Commons is happy to announce that the 2013 Picture of the Year competition is now open. This year will be the eighth edition of the annual Wikimedia Commons photo competition, which recognizes exceptional contributions by users on Wikimedia Commons.

Youtube uploads

Hey, I just reviewed some of your video uploads from youtube. May I ask how you uploaded them? From time to time I transferred files from youtube too, but I was doing it manually and that wasn't much fun. Is there a script or a bot I don't know? But thank you for your contributions! --Indeedous (talk) 20:09, 19 February 2014 (UTC)

Oh, and there was one file under a youtube standard license (no CC). --Indeedous (talk) 21:22, 19 February 2014 (UTC)

Palmi

Ciao. Ho notato che hai aggiunto foto sulla Varia di Palmi. Ti chiedevo se hai foto su Palmi sui paesaggi...sui monumenti...sugli edifici/chiese o sulla città. Nel caso tu le abbia ti chiedo se puoi caricarle. Nel caso invece tu non le abbia ti chiedo se puoi trovarne su internet con licenza libera per caricarle questo perché su wikipedia è partito un vaglio per la vetrina. Servirebbero più foto e di migliore qualità. Grazie in anticipo. --Palminellafede (talk) 11:21, 8 September 2014 (UTC)

Why such a long description on these files you're uploading? - dcljr (talk) 20:42, 6 April 2015 (UTC)

I don't suppose you could cut it down to only the information relevant to these particular images? For example, in the files linked to above, everything from "A mineral is a naturally-occurring…" to "…rich color of high-purity gold." is way too general to be needed in an image description. - dcljr (talk) 22:57, 6 April 2015 (UTC)

Mi serve il parere di uno bravo

Dall'alto dei tuoi 200000 contributi e attività di importatore (mi stupisce che tu non sia non dico sysop ma almeno file mover!) ti chiedo un parere terzo, se hai tempo.

Allora, ho creato category:Alberto Bagnai e queste sono le uniche foto in licenza "buona" sul web che ci sono (relative a un evento del 2013 dove l'attenzione era su Salvini e Borghi Aquilini, non Bagnai). Ho scavato qualche archivio di immagini con i giusti filtri ma non ho trovato nulla.

Al momento ho solo una foto vera di Bagnai a disposizione che ho ritagliato da una foto dell'evento suddetto ed è brutta. Poi ci sono foto del APrlamento Europeo di una conferenza ma non sono in licenza libera e lui si vede male, poi tante foto di trasmissioni televisive e giornali etc tutta roba col copyright, a me sembra.

Se ci fosse qualcosa di vagamente accessibile come licenza da qualche parte da importare tu la sapresti trovare? Puoi confermarmi che probabilmente non c'è? Così inizio il lungo iter per far cedere una foto di qualità migliore alla sua fondazione (asimmetrie), ma prima voglio essere certo che sia inevitabile.

Grazie in anticipo.--Alexmar983 (talk) 11:57, 26 June 2015 (UTC)

Ottimo.. cioè no, non è ottimo, speravo di essermi sbagliato. Se ti serve una mano a capire qualcosa di scritto in altre lingue chiedi pure. Mi sto mettendo anche io a ripulire qua e là su commons... Detto fra noi, penso proprio che questo posto sia rimasto un po' indietro rispetto al flusso di media che riceve. Vedo itwiki che è sempre più ordinata, consitente, mentre qui ha volte ho l'impressione che stare dietro al flusso per rientrare col lavoro arretato sia quasi impossibile. Le voci prima o poi vengono fatte, e vanno solo migliorate ma ai file caricabili mi rendo conto non c'è limite... ma come fate a stare dietro a tutto questo, mi chiedo...--Alexmar983 (talk) 20:57, 26 June 2015 (UTC)

il modo più semplice per caricare da Flickr?

Domanda pratica. Se io trovo questa e penso che sia ok come diritti di utilizzo perché vieta solo il "non commerciale", poi se adesso nemmeno il "non commerciale" va bene, non è che la domanda non si ponga... del resto è l'unica di Franco Siddi disponibile a buon risoluzione, e c'è anche Gianfranco Astori, a cui su commons manca una foto.

Insomma se ho una foto con la giusta licenza, quale è la procedura più semplice per caricarla su commons?

C'è per caso un elenco di file da caricare in via prioritaria da segnalare a qualche bot?

grazie.--Alexmar983 (talk) 10:42, 5 August 2015 (UTC)

ok, ti sei garantito il mio voto se un giorno sarai proposto come amministratore.

Tornando al business adesso devo trovare una foto che mi serva e sia utile da caricare per esercitarmi.

però che mi dici dei credits? Quelli non sono un impedimento. Questa andrebbe bene da importare?--Alexmar983 (talk) 10:05, 8 August 2015 (UTC)

c'è sempre da imparare... comunque il rischio della cancellazione l'ho studiato... hanno fatto obiezioni su foto di tavolette singole (anche se il design è poco originale davvero) che sono state cancellate, col marchio ripreso da vicino. Un insieme di tavolette è già una foto diversa in cui nessun elemento se rimosso altera l'insieme. In questo caso ci sono più casi pregressi che mi danno ragione, dovrei poter argomentare. Ho scelte un insieme di tavolette dal design il meno originale possibile in primo piano e quindi credo proprio che sia "salvabile". Vale la pena provarci. --Alexmar983 (talk) 14:11, 8 August 2015 (UTC)

Porvato e mi sembra funzioni tutto. Ti faccio un'altra domanda non-banale, giusto per imparare dai casi più difficili questo caso mi interessa: la cover dovrebbe averla messa su l'artista, quindi è sicuro che non ci sono problemi che la licenza sia accettabile dal punto di vista legale, o mi devo aspettare delle limitazioni? Intendo dire nella tua esperienza che tipo di grane potrei avere?--Alexmar983 (talk) 22:42, 9 August 2015 (UTC)

Domanda su foto professionale acquistata

Buon anno!

Vediamo se anche stavolta sai rispondermi a un quesito tecnico.

Sto aiutando a caricare una foto di un professore universitario, fra l'altro abbastanza competente di copyright, molto più della media dei suoi colleghi.

Il punto è questo: lui ha pagato alcune fotografie a un professionista e da allora le usa. Praticamente ovunque senza mai citare l'autore e su siti di discreta visibilità, quindi è abbastanza implicito che il professionista è stato pagato. Ora, ha caricato su wikipedia una foto di cui è in effetti "copyright holder". Non è una foto che ha caricato da nessuna altra parte, quindi quelle sue in rete sono leggermente diverse. Quindi non c'è nessun giornale o sito con una licenza restrittiva (attribuibile impropriamente alla foto) dove la foto è stata già caricata.

Se non si è compreso, io vorrei evitare una trafila OTRS... già è un sistema lento e rigido e poi chissà se ha una fattura originale o che altro, che magari è pure in francese e ci vuole un operatore almeno bilingue. per questo vorrei solo sistemare la pagina della foto caricata per esprimere le informazioni necessarie con la massima correttezza possibile.

Lui è stato onesto sul fatto che l'ha scatta questo Vincent Moncorgé. Io pensavo di correggere author=Vincent Moncorgé. PD-author non ha senso usarlo perché appunto l'autore l'ha venduta, cioè realizzata fin dall'inizio su commissione. Invece sostituirei "own" in source= con "commissioned and bought by Prof. Lyndon Emsley" o qualcosa di simile. Questo ovviamente meno che non ci sia un template specifico per dirlo.

Poi lascerei in messaggio anche in talk informandolo del cambiamento nell'interesse di una maggiore correttezza e facendo riferimento a un esplicito contatto via mail. Così chiunque può contattare anche me in futuro.

Interverrei oltre se e solo se qualcuno ha qualcosa di splicito da ridire. Confiderei sul fatto che di queste foto professionali auotcaricate siamo abbastanza pieni, e penso che ci siano ben più informazioni chiarificatrici a riprova della buona fede del soggetto in questo caso che in tanti altri. Vincent Moncorgé è in questo caso stato pure citato, negli altri no! Sarà pure più contento lui di tanti suoi colleghi.--Alexmar983 (talk) 23:18, 4 January 2016 (UTC)

ok. io lo cambio in modo che dica quella che non ho motivo di credere non sia la verità. Se qualcuno vuole andare oltre la presunzione di buona fede, non lo biasimo ma secondo me non è nello spirito "wiki" delle cose con questi dati in mano. Non ho detto del resto al professore di partire subito a caricare su commons, io gli ho chiesto di poterlo chiamare al telefono, e gli ho detto che la via OTRS sarebbe stata più lenta ma più corretta. Escluderei che Moncorgé venga a lamentarsi, sia perché dalla correttezza del professore non ho motivi per dubitare, sia per il fatto che l'autore non è citato dove compaiono foto in altre sedi altrettanto visibili e non mi sembra che ci siano stati problemi.

Del resto se carico un'immagine del passato e dico che è prima di una certa data non avresti motivo di dubitare della mia buona fede a priori, non capisco perché per Emsley dovrebbe essere diverso. Io mi fiderei fino a prova contraria. Trattandosi di una dichiarazione abbastanza esplicita fin dall'inizio, per me non ci sono elementi concreti per dubitare.--Alexmar983 (talk) 18:38, 5 January 2016 (UTC)

Grazie ancora. Comunque con un template sepcifico sarebbe più semplice, una volta avuto il nome del fotografo chiunque potrebbe contattarlo di persona per chiarire ad esempio. --Alexmar983 (talk) 18:39, 5 January 2016 (UTC)

secondo me si mischiano due livelli qua. Se io dico che ho comprato una foto e che il copyright è mio per buona fede non c'è motivo di credere che abbia detto il falso, salvo che degli indizi siano contro di me (p.e. la trovo uguale in rete caricata prima). C'è una differenza fra presumere la buona fede che io abbia i diritti della foto e non averlo dichiarato, e presumere la buona fede che quanto ho dichiarato, cioè che li ho comprati, sia vero. Il primo caso configura un'omissione. Nel secondo caso intervenire configurerebbe un accusa di falso. Non mi sembrano proprio la stessa cosa... puoi forse dubitare che la persona non sia lui. Ma risalendo all'account di registrazione scopriresti che ha usato il suo indirizzo di lavoro per crearlo. Insomma giustificare un falso diventa sempre più arzigogolato, esattamente come lo sarebbe prendere una foto scattata da me e venirmi a dire partendo da zero senza nessuno indizio che vuoi che la sottoponga a un OTRS "perché non mi hai provato che sei tu". C'è un motivo per cui nel 99% non chiediamo di vedere un documento di identità e una prova provata su OTRS, e questo caso a mio avviso rientra in quel 99% dove risalire fino a OTRS una volta che la foto è stata caricata su commons ed è chiaro da dove viene, è abbastanza inutile. Concetto collegato al fatto che casi non totalmente certi sono potenzialmente quasi tutti a voler fare le pulci. Penso questo soprattutto se puoi contattare il fotografo professionista e chiederglielo, se hai questo dubbio, visto che ti ci vuole un attimo. Io non biasimo chi voglia andar fino al livello OTRS, semplicemente per me mancano gli estremi wikipediani al momento per andarvi in automatico. Sono a disposizione se qualcuno vuole avre questo eccesso di zelo, ma non posso dire che questa cosa serva a difendere il progetto, perché secondo me il progetto è difeso allo stato.--Alexmar983 (talk) 21:05, 5 January 2016 (UTC)

guarda che non ho equivocato :D non mi sto convincendo che non possa avvenire. Non mi sto convincendo che se avvenisse una PdC la passerebbe. Semplicemente (mi) sto spiegando a me stesso perché non penso di avere l'obbligo di fare altro allo stato. Non perché sono pigro, o ottuso (e anche questo me lo dico a me stesso) ma perché non penso sia produttivo sentirsi "in colpa" per nulla. informarsi sì, mi piace scoprire cose nuove. In caso di PdC argomenterò senza problemi e spero di fare il mio punto non tanto per la foto ma per esperienza, intesa in senso collettivo. E ho un piano B per un'altra immagine se serve, ma si è offerto lui di caricare questa. Non escludo che Lyndon forse nel caso di PdC passerà pure a dire la sua. Non vorrei sbagliarmi ma su alcuni CV che lessi a suo tempo mi pare che abbia lavorato qualche mese dopo la laurea in un uffico legale (!) poi in rete non ho ritrovato questa notizia e non l'ho inserita nella sua carriera ma per averci lavorato per qualche anno posso confermare che in tema di copyright conosce molto più della media del professore medio.--Alexmar983 (talk) 22:26, 5 January 2016 (UTC)

Bon abbiamo sviscerato abbastanza la cosa. Aspettiamo come va... gli amministratori di enwiki con cui ho interagito facendo la voce non sembrano così incattiviti, quindi forse abbiamo anche questa via di uscita.--Alexmar983 (talk) 22:26, 5 January 2016 (UTC)

Hello, Jacopo Werther!

Thanks a lot for contributing to the Wikimedia Commons! Here's a tip to make your uploads more useful: Why not add some categories to describe them? This will help more people to find and use them.

Here's how:

1) If you're using the UploadWizard, you can add categories to each file when you describe it. Just click "more options" for the file and add the categories which make sense:

2) You can also pick the file from your list of uploads, edit the file description page, and manually add the category code at the end of the page.

[[Category:Category name]]

For example, if you are uploading a diagram showing the orbits of comets, you add the following code:

[[Category:Astronomical diagrams]]

[[Category:Comets]]

This will make the diagram show up in the categories "Astronomical diagrams" and "Comets".

When picking categories, try to choose a specific category ("Astronomical diagrams") over a generic one ("Illustrations").

Thanks again for your uploads! More information about categorization can be found in Commons:Categories, and don't hesitate to leave a note on the help desk.

Grazie ho scritto alla ragazza che l'ha caricato. Ce ne è un altro su cui mi sento meno ottimista, su cui abbiamo parlato anche su enwiki ma un passo alla volta.

Hi Jacopo,

please stop uploading PNG chemical structures. Our preferred format for them is SVG. It's better to directly create them when needed (which is very fast) and not to store them in before in an outdated format.--Kopiersperre (talk) 16:57, 9 November 2016 (UTC)

Generosity Crowdfunding Campaign for User:The Photographer

Please excuse me spamming you. As a regular on Feature Picture Candidatess you will recognise User:The Photographer, who has 86 Featured Pictures. His contributions cover the architecture and culture of Brazil and Venezuela. He has basic photographic equipment: an old D300 camera and 35mm lens, and lives in a poor country where photographic equipment is expensive. The Photographer has recently taken several images using the technique where multiple frames are stitched together to create a high-resolution panorama. However, many times frustrated with the stitching errors that result from trying to take such photos without a proper panoramic head for his tripod. This special equipment permits the camera to be rotated around the entrance pupil of the lens, and eliminates such errors. Having a panoramic head would greatly increase the potential for The Photographer to create sharp high-resolution images for Commons. In addition, the purchase of a fisheye lens would enable 180 × 360° panoramas to be taken, which are a great way to explore a scene as though one is really there.

Please see the discussion about the Crowd-funding campaign on User talk:The Photographer#Generosity Crowdfunding Campaign and visit the Generosity Crowd-funding Campaign page to consider donating. Even a modest donation will make a difference if many people contribute. Thanks. -- Colin (talk) 21:11, 22 November 2016 (UTC)

Structured Data on Commons Newsletter, July 19, 2017

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!

Structured Data on Wikimedia Commons?

The millions of files on Wikimedia Commons are described with a lot of information or (meta)data. With the project Structured Data on Wikimedia Commons, this data is structured more, and is made machine-readable. This will make it easier to view, search (also multilingually), edit, organize and re-use the files on Commons.

In early 2017, the Sloan Foundation funded this project (see documentation). Development takes place in 2017–2020. It involves staff from the Wikimedia Foundation and Wikimedia Deutschland (WMDE) and many volunteers. To achieve this, Wikibase support is added to Wikimedia Commons. Wikibase is the technology that is also used for Wikidata.

Recent developments: groundwork

• A new and crucial technical step (federation) now makes it possible to reference data from one Wikibase website in another. Because of this, it will be possible to use Wikidata's items and properties to describe media files on Commons.
• Another important piece of groundwork is under development: so-called Multi-Content Revisions. This feature allows structured data to be stored alongside wiki text, so that one wiki page can contain several types of content.

Team updates

• Amanda Bittaker was hired as Program Manager for Structured Data on Wikimedia Commons. Amanda will take care of the overall management of the project.
• Sandra Fauconnier (known as Spinster in her volunteer capacity) is the new Community Liaison. She will support the collaboration between the communities (Commons, Wikidata, GLAM) and the product development teams at the Wikimedia Foundation and Wikimedia Deutschland.
• We have open positions for a UX designer and a Product Manager!

Talking with communities and allies

• Long-term feedback from GLAMs. Besides the Wikimedia community, many external cultural and knowledge institutions (GLAMs - Galleries, Libraries, Archives and Museums) are interested in Structured Data on Commons and are willing to provide feedback on the long-term plans for the project. Alex Stinson, GLAM strategist at the Wikimedia Foundation, is currently in contact with Europeana, DPLA, the Smithsonian and the National Archives of the United States. Alex is also looking for other GLAM institutions who might be able to advise on the long term. If you know of an institution or partner that may be appropriate for consultation, do get in touch with Alex.
• Jonathan Morgan, design researcher, is starting to work on two projects:
  • Researching batch upload workflows by interviewing GLAM institutions
  • Researching the enrichment, organization and improvement tasks on already uploaded media files by engaging with active Commons contributors. This research follows up on existing research by Wikimedia Deutschland on heavy Commons users.

What comes next?

• The Structured Data on Commons team meets in the week after Wikimania to lay the groundwork for the next steps. This includes new backend development and design work, for better and more clear integration of the structured data in pages on Wikimedia Commons.
• The project's information pages on Wikimedia Commons will receive a long overdue update in the upcoming months. The team will also work on more and better communication channels. Feedback, wishes and tips are welcome at the project's general talk page.

Get involved

• Join us at Wikimania! We are present at the hackathon, and there will be a session on Saturday, August 12: Structured Commons: what changes are coming?
• Follow the Structured Data on Commons project on Phabricator: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/project/profile/34/
• Subscribe to this newsletter to receive it on a talk page of your own choice.
• Do you want to help out translating messages about Structured Data on Commons from English to your own language? Sign up on the translators page.
• Stay tuned for requests for input, discussion and participation as soon as the info portal is refreshed (see above). These will also be announced via this newsletter.

Many greetings from SandraF (WMF) (talk), Community Liaison for this project! 13:55, 19 July 2017 (UTC)

Structured Commons newsletter, October 25, 2017

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

• Rama published an article about Structured Commons in Arbido, a Swiss online magazine for archivists, librarians and documentalists: original in French, illustrated and the article translated in English.
• We now have a dedicated IRC channel: wikimedia-commons-sd ^webchat

Things to do / input and feedback requests

• Join the community focus group!
• Translation. Do you want to help out translating messages about Structured Data on Commons from English to your own language? Sign up on the translators page.
• The documentation and info pages about Structured Data on Commons have received a thorough update, in order to get them ready for all the upcoming work. Obsolete pages were archived. There are undoubtedly still a lot of omissions and bits that are unclear. You can help by editing boldly, and by leaving feedback and tips on the talk pages.
• We have started to list tools, gadgets and bots that might be affected by Structured Commons in order to prepare for a smooth transition to the new situation. You can help by adding alerts about/to specific tools and developers on the dedicated tools page. You can also create Phabricator tasks to help keep track of this. Volunteers and developers interested in helping out with this process are extremely welcome - please sign up!
• Help write the next Structured Commons newsletter.

Presentations / Press / Events

Audience at Structured Commons design discussion, Wikimania 2017

• Structured Data on Commons was presented at Wikimania 2017 in Montréal for a packed room. First design sketches for search functionality were discussed during a breakout session. Read the Etherpad reports of the presentation and the breakout session.
• Katherine Maher, Executive Director of the Wikimedia Foundation, answered questions on Quora. One of her answers, mentioning Structured Data on Commons, was republished on Huffington Post.
• Sandra Fauconnier, Amanda Bittaker and Ramsey Isler from the Structured Commons team will be at WikidataCon. Sandra presents Structured Commons there (with a focus on fruitful collaboration between the Wikidata and Commons communities). If you attend the conference, don't hesitate to say hi and have a chat with us! (phabricator task T176858)
