Oxfam Plaque photo request

Hi Kaihsu, Thanks for your photo of the plaque for the first Oxfam meeting (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/8/89/Oxfam_plaque_Old_Library_University_Church_Oxford.jpg). I don't know if you live in Oxford but I was wondering if you could possibly get a closer photo of the lower plaque, as the text isn't quite legible and I'd like to know what it says. Don't go out of your way, but if you live close by then a clearer photo would be much appreciated. Thank you — Preceding unsigned comment added by Luke Broom Gillett (talk • contribs) 18:02, 01 September 2016 (UTC)

Please link your images

Hello - thank you for providing images to the wikimedia commons. Please keep in mind that images uploaded to the commons should be useful to all users of wikimedia projects - this is possible only if the images can be found by other people. To allow others to find the images you uploaded here, the images should be in some place that can be found by navigating the category structure. This means that you should either place the images on topic pages (galleries), or put the images directly into a category, or do both. Which of those possibilities is preferred is however a matter of debate, see here.

The important point is that the images should be placed in the general structure somewhere. There is a large number of completely unsorted images on the commons right now, see Commons:Really unused. If you would like to help to place some of those images where they can be found, please do! Thank you. -- Duesentrieb 16:04, 28 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Sorted. Cheers. – Kaihsu 18:28, 30 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Thank you very much! -- Duesentrieb 20:09, 30 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Image sizes

Just saw the addition of Image:GodstowNunneryRuin20050326 CopyrightKaihsuTai.jpg to the Lewis Carroll article. When I saw the name had a copyright, I went to check out the original to make sure it had a license. It does, but I noticed that you uploaded this at 1760 pixels wide. This is extremely excessive for something that only shows up on the page at 180 pixels wide, and I can't think of any reason why the original should be so large. Please consider wikimedia resources before uploaded images of that size. 172.170.222.151 00:44, 28 Mar 2005 (UTC)

If I'm not mistaken it says uploaded the highest quality you have in the rules. Grenavitar 22:16, 19 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Copyright

Isn't it contradictory to have say "copyright Kaihsu" and release under GDFL? Grenavitar 22:16, 19 Apr 2005 (UTC)

It's confusing, but technically correct: having the copyright for a work is actually necessary for releasing it under a free license (or any license). If you do not have the copyright, you can't license it. "Copyleft" worls like this: I reserve all rights, and then grant everyone a lot of rights under a few conditions. If I would disclaim the copyright, I could not tell anyone the I want to be mentioned as the author, etc.

More to the point however, saying an image is "copyrighted by" may confuse people - in context of free licenses I would preferr to say "image created and released under the XYZ-License by..." HTH -- Duesentrieb 01:22, 20 Apr 2005 (UTC)

I am used to seeing "created and released by", and didn't know that it had the same meaning. I make my images public domain so I don't really deal with that. Thanks very much for the explanation. Grenavitar 01:39, 20 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Athens panorama pic

Hi Kaihsu, In this pic (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Lykavittos_uncropped.jpg) I noticed you added the following invitation:

"If you think you can compose a better panorama from the source photographs, please get in touch."

I'd be honored to use my Photoshop expertise on this picture, if you allow me to. So, if possible, email me the original pics: eu(at)denisgomes.com.br. Thanks!

Hi, I would like to use your picture of Chester Cathedral on our wikitravel travel guide on Chester, as its a good picture! However, as we use the Creative commons sharealike license on wikitravel, so I can't use it! Please would you change the license? Thanks very much in advance!

Certainly. See Image:ChesterCathedral20041230 CopyrightKaihsuTai.jpg and en:User:Kaihsu. Let me know if you need to be licensed with something even less restrictive. – Kaihsu Tai 21:36, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

"I can give you permission to reproduce the lyrics and Billy is happy for them to be used, but neither of us can be bothered with loads of copyright stuff, especially with this song, which is written to be sung collectively.

I hope anyone who uses it commercially will give us some money, and that if anyone records the song it will have to be cleared through normal channels."

Tip: Categorizing images

---

Hello, Kaihsu!

Tip: Add categories to your files

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.

It's my understanding that the Share Alike license won't apply unless the project is also Share Alike and this is not a commercial venture, but it's also to be copyright to the author, not a copyleft.

Picasa images

Hi!

We started reviewing license on Picasa images. Perhaps you can help us with:

• File:Corps de reaction rapide France.jpg and
• File:Bronwen Maher with Joseph Healy and Romayne Phoenix.jpg

You have been kind to upload these images here (as own work) but they are also on Picasa. Can you perhaps change the license on Picasa so we can review them? Or make a link from Picasa to your account on Commons/Wikipedia? That is a fast and secure way to verify that you control both accounts. Than you :-) --MGA73 (talk) 12:31, 6 March 2010 (UTC)

I have changed the licences on Picasa. I hope this also verifies that I own the account there (it is quite clear). – Kaihsu Tai (talk) 20:48, 10 March 2010 (UTC)

I'm sorry. I missed this reply on your talk page and the deleting admin probably did not check the license on Picasa before he deleted the images. I have restored them and marked them as reviewed. However, there might be a problem with COM:DW because the photos show a flag and a sign, that might be copyrighted. So someone might nominate the images for deletion later. --MGA73 (talk) 09:52, 2 July 2010 (UTC)

Duplicate licenses

It seems that your image MountiesIqaluitCanadaDay19990701 CopyrightKaihsuTai.JPG has three conflicting copyright licenses. Looks like at least one of them has been added automatically. I'd appreciate if you could sort that out.

For what it's worth, your copyright assertions are unnecessary. From the moment that shutter clicked, you owned copyright to the material, for better or worse. In many jurisdictions it's impossible to dedicate work, even your own, to the public domain; the closest you can do is allow permission for any purpose. Other Creative Commons licenses, as well as the GPL, qualify more accurately as copyleft, which imposes restrictions on the use and reuse of material under copyright law, but merely with different intentions.

You may already know all of this, but I thought I'd make the observation anyway. Thanks for the contributions. —INTRIGUEBLUE (talk|contribs) 12:52, 28 February 2011 (UTC)

Please use sub-categories

---

When categorising files, please avoid placing them into several categories that are directly linked within the same tree (e.g. a parent category and a child category – like Category:United Kingdom and Category:London), to prevent over-categorization of files and over-population of categories. Usually, only the most specific category should be used. See Commons:Categories for more details. Thank you.

Wrong Information about one Map

Hi, as you may ell know, the Ming Dynasty of China never ruled or annexed Formosa/Taiwan for its whole period before falling. Formosa was a completely independent territory from China or other countries at that time. That's why Portuguese/Spanish were in Taiwan later from 1624-1662. The map is really misleading. I wish you can check the information and fix the problem. They are kind of offense to many Taiwanese People and do not fit the Wikipedia norm to reflect the facts.

Deleted content

---

Hello Kaihsu, the following content you uploaded violates one or more of our policies and therefore has been or will soon be deleted:

File:Declaration by the United Kingdom on 31 December 1982 on the definition of the term “nationals”.pdf

The Wikimedia Commons (this website) only hosts media files with a realistic educational purpose and that can be used for any purpose, including:

• use in any work, regardless of content
• creation of derivative works
• commercial use
• free distribution

See Commons:Licensing for the copyright policy on Wikimedia Commons, and Commons:Image casebook for some specific examples. Some other Wikimedia projects have different licensing policies. For example, the English Wikipedia allows fair use of sounds and photographs. This is not the case on Wikimedia Commons; "fair use" materials are not acceptable here.

Please make sure that you only upload educational content you have created yourself, those which are out of copyright, or those for which you have the required permission for the work to be used in all the ways described above. Please note that derivative works of copyrighted material are also considered copyrighted. Again, please read through Commons:Licensing, which is quite crucial, to understanding how Wikimedia Commons works. Thanks for your contribution, and please do leave me a message if you have further questions.

Yours sincerely, Hedwig in Washington ^(mail?) 06:59, 19 August 2014 (UTC)

Dear Wikimedian,

Wikimedia Commons is happy to announce that the 2022 Picture of the Year competition is now open. This year will be the seventeenth edition of the annual Wikimedia Commons photo competition, which recognizes exceptional contributions by users on Wikimedia Commons. Wikimedia users are invited to vote for their favorite images featured on Commons during the last year (2022) to produce a single Picture of the Year.

Hundreds of images that have been rated Featured Pictures by the international Wikimedia Commons community in the past year are all entered in this competition. These images include professional animal and plant shots, breathtaking panoramas and skylines, restorations of historical images, photographs portraying the world's best architecture, impressive human portraits, and so much more.

For your convenience, we have sorted the images into topical categories. Two rounds of voting will be held: In the first round, you may vote for as many images as you like. The top 30 overall and the two most popular images in each category will continue to the final. In the final round, you may vote for just three images to become the Picture of the Year.

Round 1 will end on 1 May 2023, 23:59:59 UTC.

Click here to vote now!

Thanks,
the Wikimedia Commons Picture of the Year committee
