Unarchiving village pump discussion

edit

Hello. Is it possible for you to unarchive Wikipedia:Village pump (policy)/Archive 189#Spongebob Squarepants is now freely licensed!? The reason why that section hasn't really been touched is that we're awaiting a response from Nickelodeon from WMF Legal. JohnCWiesenthal (talk) 18:09, 12 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

@JohnCWiesenthal: Hi,
I don't know. Am I allowed to do that? Where should it be put back? Why can't you do it yourself? Yann (talk) 16:37, 13 January 2024 (UTC)Reply
I don't know if I'm allowed to do that either. JohnCWiesenthal (talk) 00:55, 14 January 2024 (UTC)Reply
@JohnCWiesenthal: I don't edit that much here. I mostly add multimedia content to articles. So best would be to ask someone else who knows. Yann (talk) 14:28, 14 January 2024 (UTC)Reply
Ok. I looked at the header of the archive page, and apparently a new thread should be made to revive the discussion. JohnCWiesenthal (talk) 19:59, 14 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hello there

PD due to lack of notice

edit

Hi Yann What did you mean by the history summar: PD due to lack of notice? Thanks. Maineartists (talk) 11:02, 7 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

@Maineartists: Hi, Yes, in USA before 1978, any document should have a copyright notice when published to get a copyright. In the absence of notice, the document got immediately in the public domain. For postcards, the notice could be in the front or in the back. In addition, until 1964, the copyright had a duration of 28 years, and should have been renewed to be still under a copyright. Please see also Copyright formalities and Copyright renewal in the United States. Thanks, Yann (talk) 13:04, 7 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

Film categories

edit

I had to look at your edit history to see what you were talking about. But no, in fact, the categories you're trying to add are not categories that a video file is supposed to have — we have absolutely no category schemes of "Uploaded with [software]", "Files uploaded by [Name of Wikipedia Editor]" or "Videos of films in [Language] from [Year]" at all. So not only are those not categories that exist, they're also not categories that would be expected to exist, because absolutely none of them have anything to do with how we categorize files.

(And especially in the case of the "Files uploaded by [You]" category, note that we have a rule about not revealing your real-life first and last names on here for privacy and safety reasons. So even if categorizing files for the identity of their uploader were a thing we did — which, again, it isn't — that category still couldn't stay at that name anyway.)

So since they're not categories that would be expected to exist, creating them isn't really on your list of options, but neither is just filing stuff in redlinked categories that don't exist. So really the answer is just don't use them at all. Bearcat (talk) 12:36, 9 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

@Bearcat: OK, thanks. These are the categories used on Commons. I don't add categories here often, so I didn't know. Yann (talk) 16:51, 9 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hi Yann,

This is to let you know that File:Grocery-store-widtsoe-utah-.jpg, a featured picture you nominated, has been selected as the English Wikipedia's picture of the day (POTD) for September 11, 2024. A preview of the POTD is displayed below and can be edited at Template:POTD/2024-09-11. If you have any concerns, please place a message at Wikipedia talk:Picture of the day.

Widtsoe is a ghost town in Garfield County, Utah, United States. It is located in John's Valley, northeast of Bryce Canyon and along the Sevier River at the mouth of Sweetwater Creek. A small number of settlers arrived in the area in 1876 and it became a town around 1908 after farmer Jedediah Adair was followed by a more significant population. Initially known as Adairville, after Adair, the town later became Houston and Winder, before attaining its final name after John A. Widtsoe, the president of and an agricultural scientist at the University of Utah. The population declined significantly from 1920 following droughts, and the town emptied in 1936. Most buildings were demolished shortly afterwards. This photograph by Dorothea Lange shows Widtsoe's Emery Valley Mercantile Co. grocery store in 1936.

Hi Yann,

This is to let you know that File:First medical X-ray by Wilhelm Röntgen of his wife Anna Bertha Ludwig's hand - 18951222.jpg, a featured picture you nominated, has been selected as the English Wikipedia's picture of the day (POTD) for October 21, 2024.

X-rays are a form of high-energy electromagnetic radiation, with wavelengths shorter than those of ultraviolet rays and longer than those of gamma rays – roughly in the range of 0.01 to 10 nanometres. X-rays were discovered by German scientist Wilhelm Röntgen in 1895, who named them X-radiation to signify an unknown type of radiation. X-rays can penetrate many solid substances such as construction materials and living tissue, and X-ray radiography is widely used in medical diagnostics. This medical significance was noticed by Röntgen shortly after he discovered X-rays; this print, titled Hand mit Ringen (Hand with Rings), is a print of his first medical X-ray, taken of his wife Anna Bertha Ludwig's hand in December 1895.

Hey, @Yann!

Connection between Bensebgli and Anujror and a third sock farm

edit

Hi Yann, I have been monitoring and catching socks from these two + a third sock groups for a while now and here's my interpretation of what is going on:

  • Anujror initially started out as a Ror caste SPA and was blocked for socking, they appear to have completely left Wikipedia, as I have not seen any POV pushing in Ror caste topic.
  • Bensebgli is a sockfarm run by the same person as Johnbendenz. [2] This sockfarm promotes the Gujjar caste.
  • Sometime in the past, Bensebgli/Jonhbendenz got entangled with the Anujror sock farm (likely due to someone reporting a their sock at Anujror). The likely prominent members of this farm are Fancy vibēs & Transe Ænd Danse which are currently tagged as Anujror socks.
  • Thakor Sumant Sinhji Jhala is a third sock farm which promotes Koli caste and has been active since 2019, this sockfarm has got entangled with both of sockfarms of Anujror and Bensebgli.
  • I personally think that Tejas pratihar(who has been socking since last year & promotes Gujjar caste as well) is not the same guy as Bensebgli/Jonhbendenz as Bensebgli is from Pakistan while Tejas pratihar is from india and Bensebgli/Jonhbendenz displays a great understanding of Wikipedia policies because they previously had socks with thousands of edits.

Hope this helps, It will take great effort to untangle all the accounts which have been tagged as socks of one another into their distinctive SPIs. Also pinging @Gotitbro, Fylindfotberserk, and Abecedare: to check my assessment of the situation. - Ratnahastin (talk) 09:22, 26 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

Alkesh singh Gurjar is likely just another caste warrior , I don't think he is related to any of the sockfarms given that he was active on Hindi Wikipedia which is ripe with caste warriors and pretty much an anarchy of sorts. Kokaabi (who has extensively contributed to c:Gurjar_clans like Tejas pratihar) is not related to Tejas pratihar for sure, Kokaabi is likely the same guy as Bensebgli i mentioned above as he was agitated over blocking of his previous account (Fāncy vibes or Transe and Danse). - Ratnahastin (talk) 09:53, 26 November 2024 (UTC)Reply
@Ratnahastin: Thanks for this detailed information. I deleted most files on Commons. They are likely copyright violations, or out of scope. User:Kokaabi is currently tagged as a sock of Anujror, like Tejas pratihar, and not as Bensebgli. Yann (talk) 11:16, 26 November 2024 (UTC)Reply
Yeah,because Anujror sockfarm is entangled with Bensebgli one, based on Kokaabi's writing style I think it's probably related to Bensebgli. - Ratnahastin (talk) 11:26, 26 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

Categories

edit

It's not expected, or standard, that every artist who exists would automatically get an eponymous category at their own name, or that video clip files would be in it even if they did have one. The only time creating a category for the artist would be warranted is if you can get at least five articles (not files) into it, and files would have to be categorized away from articles anyway as articlespace categories aren't allowed to be "galleries" of files. So in a case like that, no, I wouldn't recommend creating the category. Bearcat (talk) 20:35, 19 December 2024 (UTC)Reply
