Morimus[edit]

You put my pictures from Category Morimus to Category Morimus funereus. The problem is, that some authors take it Morimus funereus, others consider it Morimus asper funereus. I did not want to mix in that problem, therefore I did not put it to M. funereus. In the meantime I think, that Morimus asper funereus is more exact, and I put my new pictures there. But it is a mess anyway. --Siga (talk) 18:57, 8 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, i know it's a mess. That's why i've added crosslinks with explanation at both cat. Morimus funereus & Morimus asper to guide users. I think a more specific category is better even if it does not reflect some established consensus because it groups related images together.
I've created the species cat rather than the subspieces so as to be in accordance with the current Wikipedia article. In cases like that, when a category can have multiple designations, it's a good practice to create all the names and choose a base category and then redirect the other names to that one. In this case, i've just created the Morimus asper funereus category which i redirected to Morimus funereus. This way, the cat would be accessible by both names. In case we arrive at a consensus some time later and decide the other name is more appropriate we could just move the cat from one name to the other (but it is not really necessary as both names would be available).
Note that what you have created - Morimus asper funereus, is not an actual category (categories reside in the category namespace where names are prefixed with Category:), it's an ordinary page. That's not a good practice since it doesn't allow the benefits of a category, namely - when tagging images with [[Category:]] they would appear automatically on the category page. And besides, it just duplicates another category; duplication is bad as the two duplicates should be managed separately and can easily go out of sync and become messier. Redirects do not duplicate, they give alternative names. Good luck with the wikijungle and thanks for the beautiful images :) --Exonie (talk) 00:57, 9 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I'll use redirect from M.funereus and M.asper funereus for this article. Greetings --Siga (talk) 17:10, 9 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

My apologies, this was incorrectly marked for deletion, as the majority of the bulk-imported images in that category were mislabelled; this one wasn't, and I've updated the discussion to make clear it's no longer under nomination. Ubcule (talk) 14:53, 21 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Important message for file movers[edit]

A community discussion has been closed where the consensus was to grant all file movers the suppressredirect user right. This will allow file movers to not leave behind a redirect when moving files and instead automatically have the original file name deleted. Policy never requires you to suppress the redirect, suppression of redirects is entirely optional.

Possible acceptable uses of this ability:

  • To move recently uploaded files with an obvious error in the file name where that error would not be a reasonable redirect. For example: moving "Sheep in a tree.jpg" to "Squirrel in a tree.jpg" when the image does in fact depict a squirrel.
  • To perform file name swaps.
  • When the original file name contains vandalism. (File renaming criterion #5)

Please note, this ability should be used only in certain circumstances and only if you are absolutely sure that it is not going to break the display of the file on any project. Redirects should never be suppressed if the file is in use on any project. When in doubt, leave a redirect. If you forget to suppress the redirect in case of file name vandalism or you are not fully certain if the original file name is actually vandalism, leave a redirect and tag the redirect for speedy deletion per G2.

The malicious or reckless breaking of file links via the suppressredirect user right is considered an abuse of the file mover right and is grounds for immediate revocation of that right. This message serves as both a notice that you have this right and as an official warning. Questions regarding this right should be directed to administrators. --Majora (talk) 21:35, 7 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Help with an image you uploaded[edit]

Hello, I'm a Wikipedia user who has written a page that includes this image [1] that you uploaded. The article is right now a featured article nomination so all images used must have some detailed data such as the date or author of it. That image you uploaded has a dead link, so it isn't a valid for the nomination. I know it has been a decade ever since you uploaded it, but do you know how to find a new link for the image? I can't find it on the website of the Bulgarian Historical Archive. Thank you in advance! Super Dromaeosaurus (talk) 21:51, 17 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Super Dromaeosaurus: I have edited the template of Bulgarian Historical Archive to have a working link. Direct linking to photos is not possible because their search tool does not generate usable URLs. But I have also added a direct link to the image on the Europeana project that has imported it from Bulgarian Historical Archive. --Exonie (talk) 08:36, 18 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Great, thank you! The link at Europeana says that the photo was made on 1938, though, which fits with the lifespan of Grigor Paskov (1870-1954). Is that correct? Super Dromaeosaurus (talk) 09:03, 18 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Super Dromaeosaurus: Yes, you are right. The photo is a copy of lithography - I just translated this to English in the photo description and corrected the date. "Belgrade, 1862" is where the original was made I guess. --Exonie (talk) 10:12, 18 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Shouldn't the license be updated now then? Since the image was uploaded after 1926. I can't find a template for http://creativecommons.org/publicdomain/mark/1.0/. Does the Bulgarian Historical Archive cite another license? Super Dromaeosaurus (talk) 10:33, 18 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Super Dromaeosaurus: There's no licensing information on Bulgarian Historical Archive. "Public Domain Mark 1.0" is the license in Europeana and it seems this is just Creative Commons' way of saying that it's "Public domain". I don't know how copyright applies to reproductions? The digital photo itself is also a reproduction. --Exonie (talk) 11:07, 18 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Nikkimaria, who is the person that is reviewing the images of that article, might be able to help us out. Super Dromaeosaurus (talk) 11:36, 18 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
