Kartor för kommuner i Skåne

Norrtälje kommun

Hej, jag ser att du skapar lägeskartor för skånska kommuner. Jag håller på att framställa lägeskartor för alla svenska kommuner enligt följande design (se bilden till höger). Alla som jag frågade, till exempel sv:Användare:Väsk, menade att vi kan ersätta alla kartor för Skåne med de nya. Så vänta bara ett tag, tills jag har skapad dessa. Med vänliga hälsningar, --Nordelch 04:26, 25 April 2006 (UTC)

Image Tagging Image:Vladimir Alekseyevich Soloviyov.jpg

This media may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:Vladimir Alekseyevich Soloviyov.jpg. I notice the image page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the media on Wikimedia Commons (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag, then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then you can use {{GFDL-self}} to release it under the GFDL or {{PD-self}} to release it into the public domain. See Commons:Copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

Note that any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have uploaded other media, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. You can find all your uploads using the Gallery tool. Thank you.

Foto av en plansch

Hej, jag undrar om ett foto av en plansch inte klassas som copyvio? Jag antar att fotografen inte är skaparen av planschen. /Lokal Profil 19:23, 3 July 2006 (UTC)

Det är ju alltid svåra bedömningar i sådana fall. Bilden består ju inte bara av planschen med Jim Morrison. Å andra sidan, alla bilder här ska vara användbara i något Wikimedia-projekt och vem är intresserad av en artikel om hur "Juntas" pojkrum ser ut? Dessutom finns ju Image:Jim Morrison mugshot.jpg som man kan använda istället. Om du vill kan du anmäla bilden till Commons:Deletion requests. Thuresson 22:48, 3 July 2006 (UTC)

Your suggestions

Thank you for your suggestions. After I implement the changes suggested on my talk page, would you allow me to continue exporting image information? Poccil 14:54, 9 September 2006 (UTC)

Sure, it's important to get the images of EN Wiki since all to many people upload newer versions over images there rather than the Commons version. Also if it says "info on EN Wiki" rather than "originates from EN wiki" and a line about "feel free to integrate this info" then anyone who gets anoyed by the info can integrate it (if needed) and then clean the talk page =) /Lokal_Profil 20:27, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

Road signs

For sure I did not know about that becasue tha images were not tagged and looked as just another of the thousands of copyvios we have here. In addition I always check that the user has been notified of the problem, as I did in that case. In any case, deleted images can be restored or reuploaded if needed. Barcex 12:52, 12 October 2006 (UTC)

Any admin can restore a deleted file, but in this case care should be take to tag them inmedialety (otherwise sooner or later other admin will be deleting them). If you can give me the list of files affected I can restore them, but they should be well tagged not to be deleted again. Barcex 12:32, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

I restored all the files, please tag them as soon as possible. I do not know about icelandic copyright law so I leave that details for you :) (Anyway, I'm not so sure that a derivative work from PD is also PD, but of course, there is no "added value" in this case to the original PD).

Autotrace program

Såg att du gjort en svg version av Image:Mariestads vapen, Nordisk familjebok.png, undrade bara vilket program du använde för att autotrace? Programet jag själv använder har nämligen diverse nackdelar. /Lokal_Profil 03:57, 5 November 2006 (UTC)

Samma som jag då. Vad jag reagerade på var att din autotrace såg annorlunda ut än den jag själv gjorde i Inkscape.

Crosses in heraldry

What is a Cross Bottony etc. if not exactly a classic example of precisely a "Cross in Heraldry"?? Please give some plausible explanation of your actions, or I feel rather inclined to revert your edits wholesale. P.S. It's spelled "heraldic", not "heraldik"[sic]. AnonMoos 00:07, 30 January 2007 (UTC)

Crosses in heraldry indicates a coat of arms with a cross in it. These images of crosses are cross symbols. Specifically they are cross symbols commonly used in heraldry and suitable for use by users designing own CoA's. They are therefore very suitable to be inte the category "SVG coat of arms elements". There is however nothing intrinsincly heraldic about the images. I have also linked to the categories Category:Cross symbols and Category:SVG coat of arms elements-Crosses from "Crosses in heraldry. The heraldik spelling is a simple slip which then got copypasted ad infinum. /Lokal_Profil 00:19, 30 January 2007 (UTC)

Crosses in heraldry (continued) : Saltire / St. Andrew's cross

Good evening,

You deleted last night the link to the category Crosses in heraldry I had put on Category:Saint Andrew's cross - Croix de Saint-André. The aim of this last one was only to be a subcategory of Crosses in heraldry because some people consider saltires as a subtype of crosses (and this dependency can be useful for them to find what they look for), whereas in French crosses and saltires are considered on the same level, both as ordinaries. If you delete the dependency to Crosses, you delete the only reason for the category Saint Andrew's cross to exist.

To be consistent, I propose you chose one of the two following solutions:

1. ask for the complete deletion of the category Saint Andrew's cross - Croix de Saint-André as a useless copy of Saltires;
2. keep it as an help for those who look for saltires as a subcategory of crosses, and put back the dependency between the two categories.

I hope I was clear enough. Do not hesitate if you want to discuss this subject further. Thanks in advance, Bruno Vallette 19:52, 30 January 2007 (UTC)

I removed Category:Saint Andrew's cross - Croix de Saint-André from Crosses in heraldry since it is a redirect to Category:Saltire in heraldry, which I put into Crosses in heraldry instead. /Lokal_Profil 22:38, 30 January 2007 (UTC)

Kyrkor , kategorier

Hej. Vi som laddade upp kyrkbilder bestämde oss för att bara kategorisera artiklarna och inte bilderna, för vi tyckte det gav bättre ordning. Det var väl user:Väsk som började med att ladda upp sina kyrkbilder hit, under 2005 eller så. Så vi har gjort så ganska länge, för då tänkte vi att man skulle ha antingen kategori eller artikel men att båda är onödigt.

Jag vet inte om det spelar någon roll egentligen. Jag tänker i alla fall själv inte ta bort några fler kategorier.

Hi,

I saw your edit on Image:Radical.jpg. I have uploaded this image from the English wikipedia a long time ago, where it was released under an appropriate license (GFDL I believe). However, I created an alternative svg version Image:Radical.svg, which is now used on all wikipedia's. Therefore, although your edit is incorrect, the image Radical.jpg can be deleted right now. Do I have to do something else to request a deletion?

The image is classified as without source because it doesn't state who made it. It might be that the english image page has/had that information but only an admin on en.wiki can investigate that.

Image:Svenska kyrkan vapen.svg

Kyrkliga vapen är inte registrerade hos Patent- och registreringsverket och skyddas alltså inte på samma sätt som kommunala vapen. Anledningen till att lagstiftaren inte gav Svenska kyrkan möjlighet till detta är förmodligen att man räknande med kyrkans skiljande från staten (Clara Nevéus, "Ny svensk vapenbok"). Thuresson 19:33, 5 May 2007 (UTC)

Jag la mallen på den (och andra kyrkovapen) är att texten inte specificerar direkt specificerar att det bara gäller kommunvapen. Vapnet är registrerat i den heraldiska databasen som nr. 608. Men om det enbart är patent- registreringsverket som syftas så säg till så plockar jag bort mallen från stiftsvapnena också. /Lokal_Profil 20:35, 5 May 2007 (UTC)

I saw you requested Neuron he.jpg to be replaced with Neuron, LangNeutral.svg to which I may add the labels myself.

How can I do that?

Thanks, Yuval Madar 20:37, 6 May 2007 (UTC)

There are two ways of doing it. The first and easiest one is to ues Neuron, LangNeutral.svg and put the hebrew text in the caption. The other alternative is to open the svg file in a program like Inkscape and then remove the circles and add the text there instead. I'm not sure how well incscape deals with the hebrew font though so ou might have to convert the text to paths. Whichever you decide I'd be very happy if you added the hebrew translation to the Image:Neuron, LangNeutral.svg#Description section. /Lokal_Profil 21:13, 6 May 2007 (UTC)

I'm afraid I didn't quite understand the first option. Do you mean it is possible to replace the baloons with a,b,.., g with labels in my native language? Or do you suggest that I write down under the image what each letter means?

Is it possible to transfer the labels as parameters to the image when using it in Wikipedia? Yuval Madar 06:12, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

My suggestion was something like what's to the left. I know that thats how for example the japanese.wiki uses it. If you want to change the letters to hebrew script then you'd need to open the image in inkscape and edit it and then reupload it under a different name. As far as I know there is no way to import the labels as parameters although if such a thing exists it would be very useful. /Lokal_Profil 10:12, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

That doesn't sound good enough for me. I'd rather the viewer wil see next to each part what it is instead of going up and down checking each label. Therefore, I'd rather it won't be replaced, as the replacement is not satisfactory.

I'll see if one of the Hebrew Wikipedians might know how to work inkscape and will be able to add the Hebrew labels to the image. Yuval Madar 19:35, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

Ok. The only downside to adding the text directly to the image rather then the caption is that you can't wikilink from the words. If you need help adding the hebrew text you can always try User:Benherz or User:Mintz l who have both claim to be native hebrew speakers and good at vector graphics. /Lokal_Profil 19:44, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

categories

I saw your discussion at User talk:Juiced lemon. Commons:Categories#Category structure does not prevent an SVG map category from being categorized both by media type and topic. It says "All categories (except CommonsRoot) should be contained in at least one other category,"

Please also see w:Wikipedia:Categorization#Categories do not form a tree. It says "each category can appear in more than one parent category." It says "it may be convenient to think of parts of the category graph as being like multiple overlapping trees."

So Category:SVG maps of Mexico can be categorized in both Category:SVG maps of North America and Category:Maps of Mexico. --Timeshifter 15:24, 5 July 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for redoing that image (and renaming it)! Since you saw my work on the 1st version, you know graphics isn't my thing. Can I get you to upload a series of images with a transparent background instead of white? Or you could let me know how, and I'll try to do it myself.

Re: County locator maps

Just in case you didn't see this (it is on one of my subpages), here is how I make my PNG maps. The census maps do not include the Canadian, Mexican and Russian borders, but the maps from the National Atlas do, so I get those borders there. I have not yet done five states (California, Alaska, Michigan, Washington, or Texas), so those would be a very good place to start making SVG maps, thanks! Ruhrfisch 02:03, 1 August 2007 (UTC)

Intressant att anmärka är att om vi slaviskt återgett den "officiella" versionen av vapnet, hade det antagligen inte varit tillåtet att ha bilden här på Commons. --Himasaram 06:51, 5 August 2007 (UTC)

Kul att Wikipediadebatterna numer har spridit sig till en landets största tidningar. De har, tack vare din insats, gett Wikipedia ett erkännande genom att det anses värt att verifiera de faktauppgifter (om än grafiska sådana) som presenteras på Wikipedia. Det går inte tolka på annat sätt än att Wikipedia nu är en av de största källorna till kunskap för åtminstone Sveriges befolkning. Sedan undrar jag av nyfikenhet, som heraldiskt intresserad och insatt om Dagens Nyheters fråga: "Skillnaden mellan Lerums och Wikipedias vapenköldar [sic!] syns tydligt. Frågan är om det elakhet eller oförmåga som ligger bakom 'förvanskningen'." Är det med avsikt eller en egen tolkning? Deltarosigma 13:43, 5 August 2007 (UTC)

När jag skapar vapnena så använder jag helst element som sedan tidigare existerar på Commons. Vid tillfället så var den tjuren den bästa som fannns. Nu har jag hittat några bättre bilder men med tanke på DN och Lerum så känner jag inte för att ändra längre =) /Lokal_Profil 15:56, 5 August 2007 (UTC)

Just den tjuren är ursprungligen från den polska staden sv:Głogóws vapen. Identisk med den version som presenteras på stadens hemsida. --Himasaram 22:27, 5 August 2007 (UTC)

En fri tolkningar av vapnets blasonering är tillåten men inte det officiella vapnet eller en vektorisering av den. Undantaget är de vapen som anses vara för enkla för att vara skyddade av upphovsrätt.

Om jag inte minns fel så var arjeplog vapnet en auto-trace av Arjeplogs officiella vapen. /Lokal_Profil 02:14, 4 August 2007 (UTC)

Automatisk bildgenerering

Minns inte hur mycket jag skickade i mejlet, men la iaf upp lite lankar fran min user sida till ett par typer av bildgenerering. Testade aven med excel, kan visa over msn nar du har nat. lov /Marmelad 10:55, 29 August 2007 (UTC)

Jo jag tittade på sidan och bilderna såg bra ut. Våran definition på % skilde sig något vilket gav lite olika färger och så var det ett omval som spökade (hade för mig att jag skrivit det till dig?). Hur som helst så ser det ut att vara precis den sorts generiering som jag efterfrågade. Min enda fundering är att de genererade SVG filerna (dvs. om jag går in på t.ex. [5] högerklickar och väljer visa kod) inte är stand-alone. Dvs. de kräver att php-scriptet tolkar hur klasserna ska färgläggas. Vet inte riktigt hur man kan kringå detta. Som det är nu så är klassen det samma som procenten vilket i en stand-alone SVG fil skulle innebära en tolkning per klass, jag antar att php scriptet däremot helt enkelt kollar innom vilka av gränsvärdena den ligger och tillger den färg därefter. Misstänker att en stand-alone SVG fil kräver att klassen för allla kommuner innom en viss procentgrupering är den samma så att det sedan bara behövs ett färgläggningskommando per klass. Humm... diskusionen lämpar sig nog bäst att forsätta på MSN elelr åtminstonne när jag sitter vid den egna datorn där jag kan exprimentera. Kommer hem den 7:e ifall du har tid nån gång under helgen efter. ..o blad/Lokal_Profil 15:39, 30 August 2007 (UTC)

Laste just igenom ditt svar igen. Missforstod (=fattade inte alls) vid min forsta snabba genomlasning. SVg filterna ar stand-alone. Nar koden val ar skickad till lasaren sa sker ingen med exekvering av php-kod. Klasserna med procenttal anvande jag for att debugga och glomde ta bort. De paverkar inte fargerna. (testa att kopiera koden och spara lokalt). Undrar om excel kanske anda inte ar battre. Mer pa msn. Ar med pa konventionen att skota konversationen helt pa den sida dar den startades, blir ju jobbigt annars. Lagger in en watch pa denna sidan. Mer löv. Marmelad 21:58, 4 September 2007 (UTC)

Hi, I notice you deleted this image after sending a message in August. I also notice you are away for a month. You should have thought that you are not the only one that has better things to do than sitting in front of a screen during the summer. Proposing in August photos to be deleted doesn't seem very clever as you know (at least, you should know) that there will probably be no answers. It's like deleting without warning. Try to remember this for next summer and other vacations' times like Yuletide. Thanks. Gato76680

Ok, fick du mitt mail om Image:Map of unitary states.svg? /Lokal_Profil 23:42, 11 September 2007 (UTC)

japp, håller på och undersöker. svårt att hitta ordentlig dokumentation. det är möjligt att det har att göra med att mer specifika direktiv prioriteras över mer generella (om du stylar en grupp och sen stylar individuella element i gruppen så gäller det senare), vilket i och för sig oftast verkar vettigt. har hittat diverse sätt för dig att gå runt problemet, t.ex.

 .ms- 
 {
    opacity:1; 
    fill:#ff0000;  
 }

dvs specifiera cirkeln direkt. /Marmelad 11:33, 12 September 2007 (UTC)

Jo det var ju sa man gjorde innan. men hela tanken var att man bara skulle behova specificera landet och att cirkeln sedan farglaggs beroende pa om man satter opacity till 1 elelr inte.

Jag forsokte med att ge gruppen och cirkeln och landet samma class (typ ms, land ms, small-country-circle ms) men konstigt nog sa fungerar inte det heller. Visserligen sa har man ju motsagande information i ms och i small-country-circle men det ar ju exakt samma sittuation som i land och ms och det fungerar !...

Jaja jag far testa vidare helt enkelt men all hjalp ar valkommen. /Lokal_Profil 13:23, 12 September 2007 (UTC)

vad är det som fungerar med land och ms? /Marmelad 14:58, 12 September 2007 (UTC)

Om du specificerar ett objekt med calssen class="land ms", och sedan staller in .ms{ fill=red} eller natt sa fargar det det objektet rott (detta ar ju hur t.ex din IKEA karta ar gjord). Men om man gor samma sak med circeln dvs. class="small-country-circle ms" (dvs man ger bade land och cirkel klassen ms) och staller in .ms{ opacity=1 fill=red} sa blir inte cirkeln verken synlig eller fargad. Anda skillnaden jag kan se ar att land&cirkel i det senare fallet ligger i en grupp men detta borde ju inte paverka eftersom de bada har klassen (ms) direkt (snarare an som innan att sjalva gruppen hade det). /Lokal_Profil 15:05, 12 September 2007 (UTC)

Har försökt läsa hur specificity funkar men hittar bara bråkstycken, och de stämmer inte helt. förmodligen delvis för att svg stylingen inte är helt kompatibel med css (vissa kommandon är extra, t.ex. object som g, properties som opacity etc. tror att om man anger klasser på flera ställen (via både g och path så tar path classerna prioritet oavsett andra saker. men att ge object ms klass direkt istallet för via grupp verkar ju vara en ok lösning. det görs ju bara en gång och sen kan man färga som man vill. /Marmelad 16:14, 12 September 2007 (UTC)

Ok, förstår lite mer tror jag. när du specifierar en färg via t.ex. .ms, så påverkar den landet och cirkeln via inheritence. men om de har en egen stil satt via t.ex. klass, så är det den som tar över. det går inte att få ärvda properties att prioriteras framför specifierade. lösningen ovan verkar funka. då tävlar specifierade länder på lika vilkor med borttagna cirklar, och kan prioriteras, antingen genom att skriva dem senare, eller genom att ge dem högre prioritet, t.ex .small-country-circle mot path.ms (path ger en extra poäng på specificity) /Marmelad 15:42, 13 September 2007 (UTC)

Problemet är att om jag skriver följande så färgas verken land eller cirkel blå (rättelse den blir inte blå i firefox (som använder id) men de blir blåa i Mediawiki)

.lu
#lu
{
	opacity:    1;
	fill: #2b3bb6;
}

<g id='lu'>
	<path class='land lu' d='...' id='lu-'/>
	<path class='small-country-circle lu' d='...' id='lu.'/>
</g>

dvs, lu tävlar mot small-country-circle och mot land /Lokal_Profil 17:54, 13 September 2007 (UTC)

Jodå vem som helst kan "rösta". Tänk bara på att det inte (till skilland från en.wiki) är en omröstning i sig, det är viktigare med argumenten. Har dessutom lagt till min kommentar i debatten. /Lokal_Profil 11:35, 14 September 2007 (UTC)

hur bestäms det att diskussionen är klar då? och om det inte är omröstning, vem avgör? /Marmelad 13:22, 14 September 2007 (UTC)

När diskussionen har börjat slockna så stänger en admin den och kollar igenom argumenten. OM det inte finns någon enkel lösning så brukar de ligga öppet en längre tid eller möjligen stängas med "inconlusive". Om man anser att utgången inte överenstämmer med vart diskussionen höll på att mynna ut kan man ifrågasätta hur den stängdes så tittar anra till den. Huvudanledningen till att det inte är en omröstning är att det alltid finns massa idiotröster i stil med "sluta barnsla er såklart bilden ska finnas kvar", "bilden är snygg behåll den" eller bara "behåll" i en diskussion som försöker avgöra hurvida en bild bryter mot upphovsrätten eller inte. Det är ytterst få nomineringar som handlar om att någon inte tycker om bilden/tycker att den är fel, och sådanna leder nästan aldrig till radering (om det inte är medveten POV) typ att göra en karta över Gibraltar skriva spanien på den och ta bort gränsen till Spanien. /Lokal_Profil 23:20, 14 September 2007 (UTC)

Hi Lokal Profil, i just noticed you made the exact same SVG images of the states of Mexico as I did, look at this:

• 
  Image I made in May 2007
• 
  Image you made in July 2007

So, how are we going to solve this problem? Cause I think we can`t use both images because that wouldn`t be logical, right? (Sorry for my bad English) CrazyPhunk 15:26, 14 September 2007 (UTC)

I think I made mine because you haden't made maps for all of the states (at least I didn't find them). On one hand it's silly to have two almost identical images, on the other it does give the wikipedias a choice of colour. I don't know if there is a "standard" colour which is preferred for locator maps in general but if there is one then that would obviously be the one to go for. /Lokal_Profil 23:23, 14 September 2007 (UTC)

BlankWorld-Map6.svg

Thank you so much for your improvements to the map. Since I'm still relatively new at SVG, I couldn't get rid of all the superfluous stuff that Inkscape contributes (but I'm not surprised that it does) - I'm quite well versed in CSS, but don't know enough of it to handle cleaning up the map, so unfortunately all future corrections by me will have to be done in Inkscape (and since I essentially created the map, I'll probalby be adding corrections in the future.) Is there a tutorial out there for me to learn how to make the edits you make via a text editor rather than Inkscape, to prevent you having to come in and clean up my edits every time I make one? (This comment was also emailed to you via the "email this user" link, btw.) --Canuckguy 18:25, 16 September 2007 (UTC)

I don't know any good tutorials but I'll sit down (soonish) and write you a brief guide of how I do it. Do you prefer it to you're e-mail or here? /Lokal_Profil 16:17, 17 September 2007 (UTC)

Just a thought: Perhaps a guide somewhere here is better, as other people are probably interested in this as well. /Marmelad 07:14, 18 September 2007 (UTC)

Only problem with that is that I guide would require knowledge to write, I was just intending to share my guesswork and the Edit-in-Inkscape-copypaste-into-textfile-technique, the later one probably being the more usefull for later world map edits. But a guide would probably be good. Commons:Tutorial for Vectorial graphism already exists but I think it mainly deals with Inkscape. /Lokal_Profil 09:42, 18 September 2007 (UTC)

I still think a not so great guide is better than nothing, and it also invites people to improve it./Marmelad 10:56, 18 September 2007 (UTC)

I agree (being the original asker of the question), I'm not the only one making edits of the map, and I encourage anyone to do so, but I'm more or less guaranteed to make future edits.  :) So that would probably be good at least for my purposes. (And, to answer your original question, I'd like to be emailed, but Marmelad raises an excellent point, so if you can do both so that I don't miss it (I don't monitor COmmons as much as Wikipedia), it'd be appreciated. --Canuckguy 15:23, 18 September 2007 (UTC)

Tjena

Tjena Lokal Profil! Jag såg på en sida att du räknas som flickr-viewer, och därför vill jag be dig (som vet lite mer om flickr) att ladda upp lite bilder på musikgruppen Danielson Famile. [6], [7], [8] är de bästa bilderna jag hittade där, och det står att bilderna är public. Tack på förhand! //moralist 20:35, 18 September 2007 (UTC)

Hej. Vad gälelr Flicker bilder så är det inte om de är public eller inte som är viktigt. En liten bit över det (första saken under rubriken "Adittional Information") står licensen som bilden är under. De första två bilderna du länkade till är båda "© All rights reserved", den tredje är cc-by-nc-sa-2.o vilket är en icke-kommersiell licens. För att söka på bilder på Flickr som är fria så får du gå in på avancerad sökning och sedan klicka för "Only search within Creative Commons-licensed photos" samt de två rutorna undertill. /Lokal_Profil 21:15, 18 September 2007 (UTC)

Okej! Men för att hålla koll på foton som byter licens på flickr, måste man väl ha en speciell mall på commons, för att botarna (och användarna) ska kunna känna igen dem? //moralist 15:25, 19 September 2007 (UTC)

Om du använder "Upload work from Flickr" altenativet när du laddar upp en bild, så läggs automatiskt mallen {{Flickrreview}} till bildsidan. När den väl ligger där så går en bot igenom bilderna och dubbelkollar att licensen stämmer (och om botten misslyckas så går Flickr reviewers som jag in och kollar). Tanken med detta är att ifall licensen skulle förändras så finns det åtminstonne mer än en person som kan intyga att bilden en gång varit fri. /Lokal_Profil 14:31, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

Oj! Väldigt smidigt (fick lite hjälp på IRC igår, så har laddat upp ett par bilder). Nu kommer jag ladda upp en massa bilder... Tack för hjälpen! //moralist 15:30, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

ersatta eller skapa ny?

vad ar brukligt att gora nar man forandrar/forbattrar egna/andras bilder? har 2 konkreta exempel:

1: Om du jamfor de tva versionerna av Image:Human-styracosaurus size comparison.svg. Laddade forst upp den ena, men hittade senare en battre bild att traca. de tva versionerna ar ju ratt olika, men da den andra ar battre och bada var mina valde jag att ersatta, istallet for att gora en ny. hm. ett annat problem ar att bilden nu inte ar en svg version av png filen den skulle ersatta. hm...

2: Image:Laundry symbol dry cold.svg ar en raster bild sparad i svg format. har gjort en svg version, ar det ok att bara ersatta, da det inte finns nan anledning att anvanda den gamla. kan ju inte, som annars, andra filandelsen till svg och haka pa en supersededSVG?

blad /Marmelad 12:54, 29 September 2007 (UTC)

Vad gäller nummer två så skulle jag bara ladda upp den nya versionen över den gammla och skriva in i kommentarfältet "proper svg without included raster image". Alternativt ladda upp en ny fil under ett nytt namn och märk den gamla med {{Superseded}} och {{BadSVG}}, på så sätt kan du skapa en bild med dig själv som upphovsmann och egen licens. Problemet är väll egentligen att dessa bilder är trademarked av Gintex. Kan faktiskt vara värt att ta upp detta på Vilalge Pump då det är diskutabelt om bilderna uppnår verkshöjd. Ifall du ändå bestämmer dig för att ge dig på att ladda upp nya så finns många riktiga svg versioner på de:Textilpflegesymbol (och här) och det finns många dåliga att ersätta på Category:Laundry symbol.

Vad gäller nummer 1 så om det är din bild så är det oftast ok att ersätta med den nya. Men det kan vaa värt att titta var den används först och se ifall storlek, bildkomentar etc. måste ändras där. Eftersom ersatta png bilder inte längre raderas så är det strunt samma om den och svg:n är identiska. Får du bara din bild "approved (på en.wikis dinoprojekt") så kan du utan problem märka pngn med superseded och ersätta användningen av den med din nya svg bild. Ifall någon skulle motsätta sig det så plockar de bort mallen och då kan du alltid lägga dit {{Vva}} istället. Jag brukar använda vva snarare än superseded när min bild är kraftigt annorlunda.

tackar. upptackte att de var upphovsrattsskyddade, men visste inte tillrackligt / pallade inte borja braka. /Marmelad 17:38, 29 September 2007 (UTC)

De är inte nödvändigtvis upphovsrättsskyddade, de är "tradmarked" (typ logo registrerad). En triangel eller en fyrkant med en cirkel och en prick i är inte tillräckligt originella för att uppnå verkshöjd alltså går de inte att upphovsrättsskydda. Däremot kan man fortfarande registrera dem som logotyper. Så problemet är enbart vad gäller avgörandet ifall en specifik bidl är tillräckligt avancerad för att uppnå verkshöjd dvs triangeln och torktummlaren gör det nog inte medans strykjärnet kanske gör det. Så din torktummlare kan nog laddas upp utan problem. /Lokal_Profil 13:15, 30 September 2007 (UTC)

vapen

har verkar du ju vara lite av en expert. sa: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rixensart har en bild pa ett vapen, Image:Coat of armes Rixensart.JPG som skiljer sig fran Image:CommunesBelgique-Rixensart.svg som jag just fixat till. lite googlande hittade the International Civic Heraldry site (ICHs) som liksom svg filen saknar kedjor och krona. Kanner du till ICHs? ar det en site att lita pa?

blad /Marmelad 20:30, 29 September 2007 (UTC)

ICH är generelt en sajt att lite på. Det viktiga i det här fallet är att kedjan och kronan inte ingår i skölden utan snarare är externa ornament. Alltså är en version utan dem också korrekt. Dessutom har jag raderingsmärkt Image:Coat of armes Rixensart.JPG som copyvio. Bra att du ger dig på hans sköldar med grå bakgrund. Ytterligare några finns på Category:Coats of arms of Belgium. Lägg gärna in Category:Coats of arms of Belgium to be classified på som inte är sorterade efter vad de föreställer./Lokal_Profil 13:32, 30 September 2007 (UTC)

Visst om du hittar en byggnad med loggan på så kan du ta foto på den. Men du får inte lov att beskära bilden så att logon blir "main subject" i bilden. Dvs. du kan inte skära ner bilden så mycket att du kan använda den för att illustrera logon. /Lokal_Profil 18:26, 3 October 2007 (UTC)

Har ju gissat mig till vad vagskuror ar, och hallristningsmaner ar ju ratt sjalvforklarande. Men sparre, sankt och stortad later som de har speciell innebord. Blad /Marmelad 11:09, 13 October 2007 (UTC)

Gumse ar ett far, For vanliga haroldsbilder ar sv:Häroldsbild ratt bra dar kan du se att sparre ar en (sadan har), att den ar stortad betyder att den ar uppochner vand. Att den ar sanktbetyder att den inte skar igenom mitten utan borjar langre ner. sv.wiki ar ok for grundtermer men inte jattebra. Om det ar mer avancerade fragor sa kan man fraga pa Heraldica - Forum för nordiska heraldiker.

Har sett vissaav bilderna och gillar speciellt Sandvikens och Ockelbos vapen. En liten sak bara ar att man ofta sbor forsoka forstora objecten sa att de fyller upp mer av skolden. Sa i exempelvis ockelbos vapen sa skulle cirklarna vara lite storre och mer utspridda och hammaren borde stracka sig fran ungefar andra granen uppifran till toppen av andra nerifran.

Category heraldic images

Hi - I was browsing through the "Wanted Categories", and there is one that is called "Category:Heraldic images" with a large number of images. I am not sure where to fit them into the heraldry category. Would they be under "Heraldic figures", or is there a better place? Asking you as you seem to have experience in the field. Thanks, Deadstar (msg) 13:54, 23 October 2007 (UTC)

Hi I honestly do not know. The whole Heraldic figures category is a mess in itself. All the subcategorise of it are limited to coats of arms with X in them but the main category Heraldic figures is filled wth all kinds of images that might relate to heraldry. For the batch of images in Heraldic images I'm pretty sure most/all of them are also in Heraldic figures so removing Heraldic images from them and thus depopulating the uncreated category shouldn't be a problem. Comming up with a sensible way of structuring Heraldic figures with sensible category names is on the other hand a huge task. /Lokal_Profil 23:04, 23 October 2007 (UTC)

OK - Thanks for that. I'll not create the category. Do you know if there's a fast way of just "removing" the cat? (I asked Siebrand about this too, but haven't heard yet - perhaps you know?). Deadstar (msg) 10:26, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

The only thing which needs to be done is to remove the category tag from the images. One could possibly set a bot to do it but then on the other hand it's "only" 44 images. /Lokal_Profil 12:19, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

Det är bara att ersätta bilden med den fria och markera den ofria bilden med "orphaned fair use" (knapp till vänster). Du måste haft riktigt tråkigt inatt med tanke på att du producerat 7 vapen =) Har petat på två av dem (bakgrundsfärg och spegelvändt). Såg också att Uppsala vapen.svg skulle behöva en krona på lejonet. Är (som jag nämnde på din talk page) lite fundersam på hur fri figuren i Södertälje vapen.svg är. Det finns även en issue med skinfärgen (o hårfärgen) men det är ju irrelevant ifal originalbilden inte är fri. /Lokal_Profil 16:44, 4 November 2007 (UTC)

Emellertid förstår jag inte riktigt varför du tar upp exemplet med botkyrka? För mig förefallar det visserligen att den vapenbild som är uppladdad som Södertälje vapen (som skall innehålla S:ta Ragnhild) egentligen föreställer en man (S:t Botvid?).

Vilken/vilka källor har du för att Stockholms stift inom Svenska kyrkan skulle ha använt detta vapen? B****n 23:11, 2 December 2007 (UTC)

Kallan ar Svenska Heraldiska Föreningens vapendatabas. At svardet ar i silver namns inte dar sa det hittade jag nog nagon annan stans. Vart att notera ar att blasoneringen for detta vapen ar identiskt med det som anvands idag av Stockholms katolska stift./Lokal_Profil 10:18, 3 December 2007 (UTC)

Det finns en artikel av Bengt Olof Kälde i Heraldisk Tidsskrift nr 35, 1977: "Svenska kyrkans heraldik". Han gör där en historisk genomgång av vapnen för samtliga stift inom Svenska kyrkan (inklusive stiften inom nuvarande finska evangelisk-lutherska kyrkan). Angående vapen för Stockholms stift inom Svenska kyrkan nämns inget annat än det vapen som antogs 1962. Jag kan alltså inte se annat än att det vapen som är aktuellt här endast har använts av det katolska stiftet. B****n 11:03, 3 December 2007 (UTC)

Image:Coat of arms of Helsingborg, Sweden new.png

Hej!

Jag ser att du har anmält denna bild för radering. Nu är inte jag någon större expert på när något räknas som ett plagiat eller när något räknas som en egen tolkning. Jag har ju använt kommunvapnet som förlaga för att skapa bilden, men kommunvapnet är baserat på ett sigill från 1468. Jag har en bild på sigillet i en bok hemma, men min scanner har gått till de sälla jaktmarkerna och jag kan därför inte visa dig hur detta sigill ser ut. En bättre version av hur kommunvapnet ser ut mer i detalj finns här, där man kan zooma in för att få en bra storlek. Om man ska gå efter sigillet, vilket vore det mest korrekta, lämnas inte mycket kvar till tolkningar. Det skulle vara muren och murkronans utformning i så fall (murkronan kanske kunde tas bort?). Jag jobbar just nu på en ny version, men har som sagt inte kunnat scanna in sigillet än. -- Jsdo1980 22:55, 11 December 2007 (UTC)

Eftersom jag inte har sett sigillet sa har jag svart att utala mig. Men generellt sett sa maste bilden vara en fri tolkning av blasoneringen for att vara fri. Om det nu visar sig att sigillet ser i stort sett identiskt ut med dagens vapen sa oppnar det ju daremot mojligheter till att tolka det fria sigillet snarare and det upphovsrattsskyddade vapnet. /Lokal_Profil 23:25, 11 December 2007 (UTC)

Hej igen. Jag har nu gjort en ny version av vapnet och laddat upp den på Image:Coat of arms of Helsingborg, Sweden.png, jag ska bara fixa så att bakgrunden blir transparent. Jag har dessutom hittat en bild på sigillet som du kan se här. Den nya bilden är nu till största delen baserad på sigillet, dock är den "uträtad" då sigillet anpassades till sin runda form. Har gjort så att antalet fönster i de olika byggnaderna samt tornhuvens indelning är densamma som på sigillet, vilket skiljer sig från kommunens version. Dessutom har jag gjort mittentornet större, eftersom detta ska föreställa Kärnan och jag tyckte det borde vara mer framträdande. Korsen på de två tornen och de runda gluggarna nederst är nu mer baserade på sigillet. Skölden har jag hämtat från Image:Coa_(blank).png. MVH Jsdo1980 03:31, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

Hej. Bilden ser jättebra ut och det är precis den typen av fria tolkningar som vi behöver. Jag har putsat till informationen på bildsidan för att ge alla källorna etc. Det ända som jag kanske skulle vilja är att du ändrar den vita bakgrundsfärgen i vapnet (dvs. silver) till den gråa färgen i exempelvis Nynäshamn vapen.svg. Detta skulle i så fall vara för att skapa mer enhetlighet mellan de olika vapnen. Men eftersom vit också är en korrekt färg för heraldisk silver lämnar jag det upp till dig. Åter igen väldigt imponerad av den nya bilden. /Lokal_Profil 13:33, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

Mars/Venus symbols in heraldry

Hej, I noticed that when you had created these categories, you still had but put an explanation that these refer actually to iron/copper symbols in heraldry - in Swedish only, though. I am just wondering - as these seem to be only an element in Nordic heraldry - if those categories should be renamed to what you have originally stated and what they really are, i.e. Iron and Copper symbols in heraldry. I have already seen confusion of an South-European user, who thought these refer to astrology. Please let me know, if you agreed about using seecat-template and creating new categories. --Care 09:26, 13 January 2008 (UTC)

Maps and the people who make them

There was a time in that blur of late December 2007 in which I considered and even started to leave a well deserved compliment on the beauty of your maps. I started to learn how to use Inkscape with them; I would never be able to suitably express my appreciation of them. Even now, when I look at Image:Map of Russian subjects by type, 2008-03-01.svg -- somethings have evolved nicely since those pink and red png.... -- carol 12:30, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for those words, it's always fun when someone appreciates ones work =). BTW you mentioned using USDA Plant Zones maps to create range maps for flora within the US. Don't know if you've found Image:USA Counties.svg already but I'm guessing that one could be usefull for combining USDA information on a county level over several states. /Lokal_Profil 00:22, 30 January 2008 (UTC)

Can I remove the tag of unsourced materials. -- Rainman 21:36, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

Hi. You would still need a link to where the copyright owner has released the image under GFDL. /Lokal_Profil 22:34, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

The Croatian Govenrment doesn't own the copyright - look at the explanation. This is a symbol of Croatia as are CoA and Flag of Croatia. They are not owned by anybody. In certain states and countries the Presidential Flag is changed from one person in office of the president to another person which adds something on the Flag of ones own. This is not the case in Croatia. The Presidential Flag of Croatia has been established in 1990-12-21 and is not like some countries that have flags of kings and princes that are their personal standards which are their possesion and their ownership. In Croatia - a Republic - this is common ownership - commonality. -- Rainman 00:20, 8 February 2008 (UTC)

Done. Template:PD-CroatiaGov for currently official files and Template:PD-Croatia for official files of the past. There is apparently a difference to which pointed out Avala when talking about the Flag of Serbia, he belives that only currently official files deserve the Gov tag and other images should be considered for a broader category with the name of the State/Country/Entity. Please check the file and remove bad license tag. -- Rainman 04:01, 8 February 2008 (UTC)

No, it shouldn't be deleted IMO. One is a flag, one isn't. You can't illustrated a WP article about a flag using a coat of arms. giggy _(:O) 07:51, 13 February 2008 (UTC)

OK, I really think I must be missing something. The consensus from that DR seems to say that the flag/CoA are from a free source we can use, while you're saying the reverse. I closed accordingly.

Kyrkor från STF1923

Funderar på om inte Image:Stapeln vid Arbr kyrka, STF1923.jpg m.fl bilder av samma fotograf skulle kunna gå under PD-Sweden istället för PD-Old, och i så fall inte behöva raderas. Vad tror du om det? Taxelson 18:32, 23 February 2008 (UTC)

Problemet med PD-Sweden är i så fall att bilden inte får kvalificera som fotografiskt verk utan istället klassas som fotografisk bild för att vara fri. Och då blir det hela en debatt om vilka bilder som är vad. Själv anser jag inte att kyrkbilderna är fotografiska bilder men jag håller mede om att det är en knasig situation där STFs bilder klassas som fria tills dess att vi klurat ut vem fotografen är då de plötligt blir ofria. Det idealiska vore väll egentligen att kontakta STF (eller nån i deras arkiv) och kolla upp fotografer samt dödsdatum. /Lokal_Profil 21:34, 23 February 2008 (UTC)

Det där med "fotografiskt verk" och "fotografisk bild": Jag kan inte de juridiska definitionerna (de känns inte helt glasklara, men jag kan ha fel), men att exempelvis ett porträttfoto är ett verk är väl helt klart, ett foto av en växt eller kanske en kyrkointeriör i vissa fall kräver att man ordnar med lämpligt ljus, kanske flyttar undan saker (arrangerar), också är "verk" håller jag med om. Men korten på klockstaplarna i befintligt dagsljus? Den största arbetsinsatsen torde ha varit att ta sig till platsen och ställa upp kameran. Kameravinklar och liknande på den typen av objekt är ofta ganska givna - det finns ett fåtal möjliga alternativ. Vem som helst med en hygglig kamera och någon kunskap om fotografering hade kunna ta dem. Jag menar därför att det för dessa utomhusbilder bör gå att argumentera för att de är "bilder" snarare än "verk". Men detta är kanske något som i så fall borde diskuteras på mer allmän plats, Bybrunnen t.ex (snarae än på bildernas diskussionssidor?), eller vad tror du? Taxelson 14:18, 24 February 2008 (UTC)

Jo bybrunnen är nog en bättre plats även om jag misstänker att det finns lika många tolkningar av verk/bild osm det finns användare i diskussionen. /Lokal_Profil 14:50, 24 February 2008 (UTC)

I would greatly appreciate if you would review this template, I have made it, but not sure if it is done properly. All the apropriate links are included but still it would be great to hear from a peer and receive a review. Also any upgrade would be heaven. -- Rainman 01:50, 1 March 2008 (UTC)

Maybe it should be even Image:Orange_copyright.svg thus the name of the template would change and would be simply FOTW.

Only one picture so far has been taged with this template, and the category has not been linked to Category:Public domain it shouldn't not link to that category but some copyright category which I cannot find. -- Rainman 02:02, 1 March 2008 (UTC)

The license states the image cannot be used for commercial use nor can be altered. That is forbidden according to Commons policy, thus I deleted the template. User:Zscout370 ^{(Return fire)} 08:21, 1 March 2008 (UTC)

As Zscout pointed out, FOTW iamges are not free. /Lokal_Profil 15:49, 1 March 2008 (UTC)

Has the template indicated that the use is free - no it has not. We have pictures in that Category:Custom license tags that also prevent commercial use or alteration. We have even banknotes and coins. Why not this template, FOTW Disclaimer and Copyright policy allows that. It is only the matter of wording. Why has Zscout370 not left you to see how the template has been very carefull in selection of words, in selection of the category and other appropriate symbols. I think that this is the case of conflicting interests. I have not saved my work on the template because not expected to meet such opposition. Please return the template to let the discussion to show what and why on any conflicting issue. -- Rainman 21:12, 1 March 2008 (UTC)

All media available on Commons must be free as defined by http://freedomdefined.org/Definition . no matter how carefully worded the template might have been the end result would still be that the images are not free enough to be useable on Commons. If you can show me the other templates in Category:Custom license tags which prevent commercial use or alteration I'll take a look at them as well. /Lokal_Profil 21:19, 1 March 2008 (UTC)

Request for maps (bilateral relations)

Since you offered to help with maps, I figured I would point out where a few are needed. Don't feel the need to do them all right away. We need a map for:

• Canada-Israel
• Canada-Mexico
• Canada-Saudi Arabia
• Canada-Ukraine
• Canada-UK
• Canada-Venezuela
• Ecuador-Venezuela
• Iran-Venezuela
• Israel-Venezuela

That should keep you busy for a while. On a side note, if you could tell me how, I could help do some myself. Kevlar67 22:15, 7 March 2008 (UTC)

I take it that the first name should be in green and the second in orange?

If you want to try fixing it yourself then all you need is a texteditor which can handle large textfiles (without adding junk code) e.g. Word Pad and the ISO 3166-1 alpha-2-code of the countries. If you then save Image:Germany Japan Locator.svg (need to save the actual file not the png thumbnail) and open it in your text editor you should se a two lines which say

  .jp { fill: #e3801c; }      /* Japan */
  .de { fill: #3c9d3c; }      /* Germany */

if you replace then replace "jp" by the isocode of the country you want in orange, and "de" by the iso of the country you want in green.

So far I've only done Canada-UK since this one has an extra part due to UK (in the widest sense) containing several different iso codes (e.g. falkland islands etc.). If you have any troubles just give me a shout. /Lokal_Profil 02:04, 8 March 2008 (UTC)

or we could set up a script to do it automatically... let me know if you're interested. /Marmelad 16:23, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

the ones listed above are now done. /Marmelad 12:35, 18 May 2008 (UTC)

starting to seem a bit silly to have all these maps as huge svg files, since they only need to show countries on a thumbnail of the worls. might start making them in png format instead. any thoughts? /Marmelad 17:15, 18 May 2008 (UTC)

Not sure size is a problem, the only thing to get displayed is a thumbnail anyway. This way there is more flexibility for downstream usage. But being pro SVG I'm biased =) /Lokal_Profil 18:46, 18 May 2008 (UTC)

im fairly pro svg myself. perhaps the main issue favouring png in this case is that the template already contains a link to (at the moment non-existent) png files, so all that's needed is an upload. for svg, each page calling the template must be edited to tell it to look for an svg instead. any thoughts on automating this as well might convince me to use svg instead.. =) /Marmelad 14:52, 20 May 2008 (UTC)

Either you enter the image name using the "map=" parameter or (if the image name is correct up to the file extension) you just set the parmaeter "filetype=svg". In general any templates which predefine the names of the images in such a way as this is kust doomed to get broken though. /Lokal_Profil 15:02, 20 May 2008 (UTC)

you misunderstand. i know how to get the template to take svgs. what i don't want to do is to edit each page to add filetype=svg. this is what i would like to automate. or bypass by uploading a png. /Marmelad 15:12, 20 May 2008 (UTC)

Not apart from changing the template to have svg as default, might be worth it if you are converting all of the existing maps (~650 650 pages, many don't have images). Alternatively you can ask someone with a bot account on en.wiki to update a specific set of pages. BTW created Category:Bilateral maps for these maps. /Lokal_Profil 15:22, 20 May 2008 (UTC)

where did you get the number 650? been looking for a list of ones missing. have a script that makes them, and puts circles on the ones with small countries. (might write one to decide if a country is small, at the moment the decision is manual) /Marmelad 15:30, 20 May 2008 (UTC)

That's why I crossed out 650, because that's the number of pages using the template, but some have maps and some don't. /Lokal_Profil 15:34, 20 May 2008 (UTC)

Ah. been trying to get a list of the ones missing maps (hence my question about red links). any ideas? /Marmelad 15:38, 20 May 2008 (UTC)

No. Not sure how that would be done since the image page would be "dead" even if the image exists on Commons. But there might be a way, as I said someone on one of the village pumps might be able to sort it. Alternatively you could maybe create a list of all articles using the template and then remove the few which corresponf to currently existing svgs. The problem there is the use of Franco instead of France etc. /Lokal_Profil 15:49, 20 May 2008 (UTC)

(removed indentation, was getting silly) ok, think i've found a way to make a list of all linked, but non-existing maps. (for reference, i took the list of all articles using the template, used the wiki export function to get an xml file with all those articles and parsed it for links to the maps. then i made a new wikipage with links to all the images and tada! the non-existent ones can be read of in beautiful red (the other ones show up as actual images.) so. next problem is how to edit all these articles to link to svg images. maybe avb? i know i need permission to use it, but can i use it without editing even if i don't have permission? (to get a feel for what it can and can't do.) lov /Marmelad 15:49, 21 May 2008 (UTC)

No. AWB will refuse to run at all on en.wiki unless you get a permission to run it. Same thing here on Commons. On sv.wiki you can run it without any problems though if you want to get a hang of it. In order to not have to manually save every page you will need to get a bot-flag though otherwise AWB won't allow you to use the auto-save function. /Lokal_Profil 16:53, 21 May 2008 (UTC)

en:Wikipedia:Bot requests ./Lokal_Profil 17:20, 21 May 2008 (UTC)

been trying to think of a solution to this conundrum. the most efficient solution would probably be to make all new svg's and change the template. i suspect this might piss some people off so maybe the easiest way forward is to just make a load of png that will respond to links already in place, not change anything in the articles and let that be that. for something like this, downstream flexibility is probably best achieved by going back to either the blank svg and/or by regenerating the whole lot if needed. /Marmelad 20:17, 21 May 2008 (UTC)

Since you currently have a list of all images. How many actually exist? i.e. how many pngs have already been created? /Lokal_Profil 23:20, 21 May 2008 (UTC)

the vast majority. out of 511 templates with not extra options (so linking to the standard png file), only 74 are missing. (though some of the current pngs are a bit ugly. a lot of them are zoomed in though, for eg two european countries which is probably a good idea.) /Marmelad 09:35, 22 May 2008 (UTC)

Oh, I expected the majority not to exist already... I'd still recommend svg (hopefully replacing all of the png's after a while) but since it's your workload I'll leave it to you to decide. /Lokal_Profil 23:54, 22 May 2008 (UTC)

all the missing ones are now there (as svg, take ages to upload.. =) edited the articles manually. on ones with two small countries near each other i decided to zoom in, not sure if i like that though, or if all maps looking the same is better... see eg Image:Ghana Côte d'Ivoire Locator.svg /Marmelad 16:44, 24 May 2008 (UTC)

I was thinking about the same thing. I'f you add a small map of the whole world with the zoom highlighted it might make things better, i.e. like Image:Albania Turkey Locator.png and Image:Mapa Cor-de-Rosa.svg. You can use a (shrunk) clone of the world map for the small map so it shouldn't add on much code. It is an added hassle however and as far as uniformity goes I'm not sure which is best. Thinking of a map of say lichtenstein and luxembourg, or israel and palestine a world map would look quite rediculous though. /Lokal_Profil 16:08, 26 May 2008 (UTC)

Zimbabwe bird

How is it a copyright violation? I created the image myself and the licence says so. Mangwanani 16:35, 27 March 2008 (UTC)

(unless I'm missremembering) It was a direct derivative of Image:Zimbabwe Bird.gif which was created by Vector-Images.com. Since Vector-Images.com's images have been found to be unfree then so (by extension) are all derivative works based on their images. /Lokal_Profil 16:45, 27 March 2008 (UTC)

There is only one way to draw a Zimbabwe Bird and that was the way I did so in Inkscape. There is no copyright to the design as the creaters of the stone carvings died over 500 years ago. Mangwanani 17:37, 27 March 2008 (UTC)

Also, I am unable to find a Zimbabwe bird on the aforementioned website. Mangwanani 17:38, 27 March 2008 (UTC)

Sorry that was my misstake. Image:Zimbabwe Bird.gif comes from FOTW which is another unfree website. Your image Zimbabwe Bird.svg is a direct derivative of the image used in the official flag (e.g. Zim-flag-detail.jpg) which, unless specifically stated otherwise, is copyrighted. Thus by extention your image is a copyvio. As far as there being no copyright on the design: it's true that the original stone carvings aren't copyrighted but 2-D representations of them are likely to be copyrighted, also there are many different ways of drawing it (as can be seen from [11], Image:Flag of Zimbabwe.svg and also the discussion on your talk page). /Lokal_Profil 20:53, 27 March 2008 (UTC)

So what you are saying is that there is no possible way to claim an image I drew myself using Inkscape as my own because a design with no copyright due to the author being dead for over 500 years has a copyright because someone else has drawn a picture of it elsewhere which in my mind is a ridiculous conclusion to come to. Mangwanani 21:40, 27 March 2008 (UTC)

What I'm saying is that if you redraw a copyrighted image (or happen to draw an identical image to one which has been drawn before) then you don't get to claim copyright for it. The process of vectorising an image does not (although it requires skill and time) add any originality to it and originality is the basis of copyright in almost all countries. As an example the Statue of Liberty is no longer copyrighted but my drawing of it would be, if you then draw the same drawing as I did then thats an unlucky coincident. Now if you would draw you own version of the bird based on the stone carvings (or several different photographs of them) then you could claim copyright for that image. /Lokal_Profil 22:24, 27 March 2008 (UTC)

Well how the hell can one draw an image based on another image and say "I didn't copy it therefore I havn't breached copyright"? Anyone can come along and say "I drew that first therefore you breached my copyright by making a derivative work". Simply, by your logic no one can draw anything on the basis that someone may have drawn it first and therefore a copyright has been breached. In other words, all art is illegal as it has been copied as elements of one painting are a "derivative" work of several others. Mangwanani 12:36, 28 March 2008 (UTC)

Öh... no. Most copyright related things tend to be linked to it having been published. For this case it's however completely irrelevant since there is no chance in hell you didn't know that an identical image existed since you traced it into a vector format. /Lokal_Profil 15:41, 28 March 2008 (UTC)

Anywho, I have changed the image. Is it orginial enough yet for you? Mangwanani 16:34, 28 March 2008 (UTC)

L'autorizzazione del disegnatore non è sufficiente. È necessario richiedere all'amministrazione comunale competente l'autorizzazione all'utilizzo secondo quanto indicato alla pagina Progetto:Coordinamento/Immagini#Stemmi

that means:

The authorisation of the painter is not enough. It's needed to ask to a communal administrator the authorisation of the use (of the images) under the terms indicated on the page Progetto:Coordinamento/Immagini#Stemmi.

Then, there's a few emails where a site release the rights of the Coat of Arms by the administrator of a site that says that's enough if the author are quoted (but I think that's needed also the authorisation). Sorry, but I'm not an expert of the coats of arms, and there's a lot of things that aren't so clear about them (a lot are under fair use on it.wiki but here are under GFDL). Senpai had once explained me something about that, but it was a lot complex, imho it's better if you ask him if you have further doubts ;-) --Filnik^{\b[Rr]ock\b!?} 19:00, 29 March 2008 (UTC)

Image:Rubus chamaemorus in the USA.svg

Hello! You have licensed image Image:Rubus chamaemorus in the USA.svg under CC-BY-SA-2.5 license. The source information says the map is based on GFDL'd image Image:Blank US Map.svg. As far as I know, GFDL requires any derivative works to be licensed under the same license, i.e. GFDL. Correct me if wrong, but it seems to me that licensing Image:Rubus chamaemorus in the USA.svg under CC-BY-SA-2.5 violates the copyright of the original image. --Apalsola ^{t • c} 23:57, 6 April 2008 (UTC)

Hi. Yes you are probably right. The reasoning that I have used before though is that Image:Blank US Map.svg is in fact a derivative of Image:Electoral map.svg and all of the elements I've used in have in fact remained unchanged from Image:Electoral map.svg. That said yes it's probably best to change the license to GFDL or "redo" the map based on Image:Electoral map.svg (which would mean repeating the same work as before with exactly the same result). I've contacted the creator of Image:Blank US Map.svg (again) to ask if he would consider dual-licensing the image and until I hear from him (or a sutiable tiem has passed) I'll leave the image as it is. Do you mind me asking how you came across the discrepency? /Lokal_Profil 13:12, 7 April 2008 (UTC)

No, I don't mind. I made a category for cloudberry and added cloudberry-related media, including your map, to that category. So, I wasn't paricularly looking for any discrepancies; I just came across it by accident. --Apalsola ^{t • c} 17:43, 7 April 2008 (UTC)

Image:Östergötland vapen.svg

Hi. In the image Image:Östergötland vapen.svg, the beak and the nails are blue. Versions of this coat of arms I have seen in local wikis (i.e., fr:Image:Ostergotland county.png) don't have blue color at all. Is this blue color correct? Cheers, Malafaya 17:29, 14 April 2008 (UTC)

Yes, the blue colour is specified by the blasoning blå draktunga och beväpning translates as blue dragon tongue and beväring which I don't know the english term for but it means beak, claws etc. /Lokal_Profil 20:43, 14 April 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for the info :). Cheers! Malafaya 13:44, 15 April 2008 (UTC)

The proper term for "beväring" is "armed and langued" - in this case "armed and langued gules". /B****n 16:02, 16 May 2008 (UTC)

World maps

Hi, Lokal. I saw your work on BlankMap-World-162E.svg and I tried to make a similar one centered on the 75°O parallel with the Python-based tool you linked in the description page but I finally coudn't understand what to do. ¿Coul you please help me? As I told you, I must do a map of the world centered on the 75°O parallel or 74° 59’ 30,75” S if posible. Greetings for your job, man! --Huhsunqu ^[@] 00:29, 15 April 2008 (UTC)

You can only center the map on a specific longitudinal line, not on a latitude/parallel line. Assuming that you've got python and the two necessary tools installed and that you are running Windows all you need to do is open the MS-DOS prompt (or whatever it is called now) and go inte the python directory and enter:

python Scripts/nugsl-worldmap -o OUTPUTNAME.svg -t rotated -m 75E

Then open the created svg file in Inkscape say and center the image in the viewbox. I hope that helps. /Lokal_Profil 16:50, 15 April 2008 (UTC)

Image:Map of Canada, same-sex marriage, pre July 2005.svg

Hi, I recently took a look at this image and it shows that you are the author of it, so I thought I would let you know and hopefuly you could fix it. What's wrong with it? Well, according to the map, PEI is listed as one of the provinces that had legalized same-sex marriages before bill C-38 on July, 20 which made is legal across Canada. Which isn't so, PEI was not one of the provinces that individually legalized it like Quebec or BC did. so I thought I would let you know about it and hopefully you could fix it.

Question

Hi! I've just made this map and there's a problem with the legend. Could you please tell me how to get the colour number (like #123456) if I know its CMYK characteristics. Thanks in advance. Alaexis 19:36, 22 May 2008 (UTC)

It depends on the program you've been using. Since you seem to be using Corel Draw (or som other corel product) the straight forward ways of highlighting an object and checking it's "fill parameter" won't work. Instead you have to which class an object has, e.g. fil0 str0and then go into the style part of the code to see what these correspond to, e.g. .fil0 {fill:#00923F}. For this particular image I give the colours and their hex codes below:

 

1. 00923F

 

1. FFF500

 

1. 3B7039

 

1. 7EA64B

 

1. BCD621

In general I'd recommend using a program like en:Inkscape instead since it gives you a larger control of the code in the image (making it easier to find and fix afterwards). Alternatively for some images (like derivatives of e.g. Image:Map of Russian subjects, 2008-03-01.svg) you can use a text editor although this requires some knowledge of svg code. Hope the above helps.

btw, I rearanged the source section of the image. /Lokal_Profil 00:05, 23 May 2008 (UTC)

Help

Hi Lokal Profil. I know you are clued up on copyright guidelines etc and I was wondering if you could give a bit of advice on this matter. The vector version of the Coat of Arms of Iceland is up for deletion for some reason - I'm rather unsure about - but I believe it has been made in the same way as all the other COAs and flags that are "allowed" on the wiki. It was made by me through the Graphics Lab on English Wikipedia exactly how every other vector image has been made through that project so I don't see where the problem is for this image. Please have a say here: Commons:Deletion requests/Image:Coat of Arms of Iceland.svg Thanks. Mangwanani 16:35, 25 May 2008 (UTC)

map question

I am in need of having a map that includes much of that whole chunk of land which spans between England and Japan broken into smaller pieces. The technical language for this is probably: "I need a map that has China and Russia broken into third level political divisions."

Where should I go to request such a map? And, if you are in the mood to give me the answer "Go to hell!", that would be fine as the last time I was in the hell that I know, it was nice. I had a hamburger there and that was good too. I would really like to go back there for a visit. -- :) carol (talk) 09:14, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

Not sure where you would get such maps. 2nd level maps are on Commons for both China and Russia but 3rd level... Acording to rumors (i.e. a link on the appropriate en.wiki article) this page is supposed to have maps of China at 1st to 3rd level, however it is in Chinese. You can always try and request an image at the en.wiki or commons graphic labs but there are no guarantees. /Lokal_Profil 21:52, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

I need a mixture of political "levels". Lithuania and Russia are equal in politics but they are so unequal in land area. -- carol (talk) 00:20, 3 July 2008 (UTC)

That is very true. Think second level should be easy to find but the third level are a problem. Also a final product incorperating all second and third level maps (with different projections) will be a lot of work. /Lokal_Profil 00:38, 3 July 2008 (UTC)

All is more than I want. For species range maps, just China and Russia. I tried to put that map of Russia onto that world map -- I am not so good with inkscape that I could curve it correctly. I made a map with that part of the world between England and Japan with Russia divided into three or four (they have had to divide it themselves! I have found divisions into 4 and into 8 (economic area or something for that latter division). To say that a species is found in Croatia (which is not so small) and in Russia -- it just doesn't work. In that same world map, United States and Canada have a lot of area as well -- as you hinted at and now that I think of it.

Politics is not natural. -- carol (talk) 00:46, 3 July 2008 (UTC)

That is very true =). The main problem with putting maps together is that different projections means that there is no easy way of curving one map to fit into the other. I've long thought of the best way to do range maps. Probably it's to just do a semi-transparent blobb on top of a world map and then do some clipping so that the areas in the sea are removed. Haven't tried it but I'm guessing it sounds easier then it is. For the US there is Image:USA Counties.svg which is always an overkill. At some point I should really convert maps such as Image:Trillium undulatum in the USA.svg to use that map since the USDA Plants Database has information on a county basis. /Lokal_Profil 01:00, 3 July 2008 (UTC)

For the example above the map is quite missrepresentative for say georgia wher the actual distribution is this. /Lokal_Profil 01:03, 3 July 2008 (UTC)

Heh, that counties map is really something! I am having problems making it easy to make range maps for the world via areas that are sized between second level political divisions and states/provinces. The United States has somewhat logically gridded subdivisions, as has Africa. I really need Russia and China to be more subdivided on the world map before I can start to think about county level distribution of plants and varmits. Heh, you are just being a problem :) -- carol (talk) 01:51, 3 July 2008 (UTC)

Empty COA?

Image:Coats of arms of None.svg

Is there such a thing as an "empty" COA or an image saying "no free representation of this excists" or such? Some templates in Norwegian (and probably other languages as well) returns "This country/city/whatever doesn't have a COA if there is no image link, which is wrong in cases where a COA exists but is not licensed for free use. See no:Canada for an example. Would be easier to link to such an image instead of fixing all the templates. Finn Rindahl (talk) 15:04, 5 July 2008 (UTC)

There might be something in Category:Coat of arms placeholders. The one that I've normally seen used is Image:Coats of arms of None.svg. /Lokal_Profil 15:40, 5 July 2008 (UTC)

Thank you. The questionmark is somewhat similar to "doesn't exist" or rather "unknown" - what I was looking for was more of "no free license" - I'll see if I can get around to make a Norwegian version of one of those French text COA. Finn Rindahl (talk) 16:12, 5 July 2008 (UTC)

Well "no free license" would basically translate into a "free version has yet to be made". Don't know if there is a CoA project on any of the norwegian wikis otherwise it could link to them in some way. /Lokal_Profil 02:22, 6 July 2008 (UTC)

The problem with that CoA is that I haven't found any alternative sources for what a "stormhat" looks like. I've got the "muskötgafflar" done already though. /Lokal_Profil 02:20, 6 July 2008 (UTC)

Have you tried looking for a "kettle helmet" or "kettle hat"? 65.14.16.112 05:24, 6 July 2008 (UTC)

Is that the same thing? I'll give it a look. The main problem with the swedish word is that it's also the name of a flower and that use is much more prominent. /Lokal_Profil 13:58, 6 July 2008 (UTC)

I always thought it was more specific then that. But [14] seems to agree that it's generic. To make things more confusing stormhatt can also mean a top hat. I'll give it a try. /Lokal_Profil 16:19, 6 July 2008 (UTC)

OK? /Lokal_Profil 16:38, 6 July 2008 (UTC)

Excellent! That really looks good, and clearly depicts what the blazon indicates. Indeed, the helmet on the arms on the Sundsvall website certainly looks to me like what I've always known as a "kettle hat", which you've captured beautifully here. Good work!

hello

Are you running the "bots who feign trouble" today? -- carol (talk) 08:10, 6 July 2008 (UTC)

Do you know that the other day, I wrote something about giving tickets to people who were going only 5mph over the speed limit. Then, when I was driving, I pretended that I was under the influence of my personal favorite intoxication so that I would drive between 5 and 10 miles below the posted limit. So sweet are my memories of times like this.

Do you ever have a situation like this? -- carol (talk) 08:14, 6 July 2008 (UTC)

? /Lokal_Profil 13:57, 6 July 2008 (UTC)

The questions are about cause and effect in the not so natural world. The map of the United States that was divided into counties was very similar to the need of an editor to put the word "the" into a tree that I am making.

To not communicate and to keep up with an offensive action until the person who is trying to communicate is reduced to suggesting that there is a learning disabled person running things (or similar summaries) is kind of an old routine which would kind of resemble the inclusion of a map which has been divided into counties to a person who is requesting a map of a huge area be broken into smaller portions.

I think I said something about being a trouble maker, so when I had a trouble maker, I came here.

Injecting difficulties into a simple solution, are there rewards for that? -- carol (talk) 02:17, 7 July 2008 (UTC)

Protestant branches

Hello, thanks for creating a vectorised version of the Protestant branches image [15] [16]. I have noticed that you have inserted the word "Baptists" where it should be "Congregationalists". Could that be corrected please? cheers, 220.253.145.68 12:38, 10 July 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for spotting it, I copy pasted the baptist text around and then changed the word to the right one, seems as tough I missed one. Anyhow should be fixed now but once again thanks for keeping an eye on things. /Lokal_Profil 13:19, 10 July 2008 (UTC)

Problem med svg-bilder

Hejsan. Du har ju jobbat en del med svg-bilder, så jag undrar om du kan hjälpa mig med ett problem jag har. Jag skulle ladda upp ett förslag till Wikiboken om fåglar i svg-format, men inga inklippta bilder kom med i överföringen.

Problemet ar att du har lankat till bilderna snarare an infogat dem. Eftersom fotobilderna anda inte ar i vector format sa finns det ingen bra anledning att anvanda svg (de har ju anda begransad upplosning) rekomenderar darfor att du istallet laddar upp bilden som png fil i hog upplosning. Du kan anvanda Inkscape for att exportera filen till png gformat (Export Bitmap). Alternativt om du vill behalla svg formatet sa tror jag att kommandot som behovs ar effects/images/embedd all images men jag ar inte saker. /Lokal_Profil 01:15, 2 August 2008 (UTC)

Request for bilateral maps

Hi, I've been moving a few of the bilateral relations articles over on Wikipedia, and in some cases this requires replacing the old maps. Specifically, I need maps for:

• Slovenia–South Korea relations
• Russia–South Korea relations (already has a map, but it's not the standard format)
• Republic of China–South Korea relations
• South Korea–United States relations
• North Korea–Russia relations
• North Korea–United States relations
• Mongolia–North Korea relations
• People's Republic of China–North Korea relations

I don't have the first clue how to make these myself, but I believe you're the person to ask. In some cases the countries are quite small and difficult to see – is it possible to have them circled, as in Image:Cyprus South Korea Locator.svg?

Thanks in advance if you can help me out! :) PC78 (talk) 08:46, 14 August 2008 (UTC)

Image:Seal of New York City.png

That's weird. I could swear that I've changed the licensing template before removing the no source tag. Well, I've re-changed the licensing template to {{PD-old-100}} and added the source I used to determine it's PD status. Please, remove the no source tags if you're satisfied with my source and license information. Cheers, KveD (talk) 21:52, 20 August 2008 (UTC)

Shanghai flag

Hej! Jag har länge beundrat dina heraldiska alster på Wikipedia och undrar om du skulle kunna ta itu med en historiska flagga. Som du kanske vet har jag jobbat en del på Kina-relaterade sidor och det slog mig att det inte finns någon Commons-version av Shanghais stadsfullmäktiges flagga (Shanghai International settlement), där bland annat den gamla unionsflaggan finns med.

By the way, the flag of Germany doesn't seem to be displaying... AnonMoos (talk) 13:50, 26 September 2008 (UTC)

Think the flag is supposed to be all white, At least the two images i saw had the german flag being all white. /Lokal_Profil 14:20, 26 September 2008 (UTC)

Well the pre-WW1 German flag was most definitely not all-white, so it seems a little odd for it to be represented as all-white here... AnonMoos (talk) 14:51, 26 September 2008 (UTC)

The two images above together with the en.wp articles about which flags where used at the time was all I had to go by. Was there possibly a naval jack/ trade flag or something similar which was all white? /Lokal_Profil 14:57, 26 September 2008 (UTC)

Almost all national Zweites Reich flags were based on a horizontal tricolor of black-white-red, or an elaborated Scandinavian-type cross of black on white. The only all-white flags I've ever heard of are Image:Naval_Ensign_of_the_Kingdom_of_France.svg and the banner of the Stewards of Gondor... AnonMoos (talk) 15:39, 26 September 2008 (UTC)

Seems odd. The page with the most inf o seems to be [19]. On the other hand [20] says Prussia rather then Germany. On the other hand [21] says there was a slightly different version of the flag, missing the German flag and is simply a white space where the flag would have been. This modification was a protest against the German European aggression of the time, presumably around WW1.Further down the same page there is an image of the "Shanghai Russian Regiment" which uses the same seal but a german flag which looks like Image:Flagge Preußen (1892-1918).png. /Lokal_Profil 15:59, 26 September 2008 (UTC)

I search other images in the same situation, like the flag of Portugal, they putted the author died 70 yrs ago. Anyway, I was not the one that did a research about that and noticed that was illegal to copyright public flags or coat of arms, but searching that info in wikipedia and after a long time, so you're possibly handling the issue in the wrong way,....

Some of the flags might be public domain in this list, so we need to look at each image carefully. User:Zscout370 ^{(Return fire)} 17:45, 3 November 2008 (UTC)

If there are pre-VI.com versions then we should revert to those. There might also be open-clip-art alternatives for some. But otherwise (unless the flag is extremely simplistic) they should probably be deleted. A few exceptions might apply though. Moscow flags and CoA are {{PD-RU-exempt}} for instance. So Vector-images.com would have to argue differently in that case. Since the images were uploaded we've completely reinterpreted {{Vector-images.com}} to a point where their images (even if raster) are assumed to not be ok unless special circumstances (e.g. PD-RU-exempt) applies. I'll look into the images above though. /Lokal_Profil 15:20, 4 November 2008 (UTC)

Hej! Jag såg att du hade raderat bland annat Image:Linje 91.gif eftersom de var upphovsrättsbrott från Karlstadsbuss tidtabeller. Gäller det samma för Grinders övriga bidrag, eller är de så pass enkla att de räknas som PD? Keep up the good work! //Essin (talk) 00:16, 18 November 2008 (UTC)

File:Death_penalty_statutes_in_the_United_States.svg

You have made a change on 15 December 2007 on the map about death penalty statutes in the United States.

I can't make change on this map.

In this map, the state Massachussetts is blue, which means it doesn't had a death penalty statute.

But it's false. Massachussetts had a death penalty statute who was found unconstitutionnal in 1984.

Can you change this map and feature Massachussetts with the same color as the state of New-York ?

SVG-hjälp

Hej! Jag har gjort några svg bilder som är tänkta som förslag till utmärkelser på w:sv:Wikipedia:Veckans nyskrivna artiklar, men har stött på lite problem. När bilderna visas ändras färgen för en del av pennan. Exempel: Delen på spetsen som här är svart ska egentligen vara vit, och den är så om man ser bilden endast genom webbläsaren. Det är bara här som färgen ändras. Något jag har missat? -- Jsdo1980 (talk) 15:29, 26 November 2008 (UTC)

From Commons:Deletion requests/Images from webchantier.com

You should know, LP, that you will be held responsible for drawing replacements for all of these images should they end up deleted. -- Denelson83 (talk) 07:19, 6 July 2008 (UTC)

Because you uploaded images against the Commons guidelines? Not sure I see the logic. /Lokal_Profil 16:51, 6 July 2008 (UTC)

Because you submitted them for deletion. Now I and at least one other user have managed to replace some of those nuked images with free versions, but others are too complex for me to tackle, such as the coat of arms of Monaco. You gotta have at least some measure of sympathy here, and judging from my past interactions with you, you don't seem to have any. -- Denelson83 (talk) 07:04, 28 November 2008 (UTC)

When I started out on Commons the same thing happened to me. I upploaded vector images I'd worked on but which were in turn based on a raster image. Later down the line I discovered the raster was unfree and thus my vector file had to go. The only person to blame in that case was me since I hadn't done enough fact checking to start with. Blaming the person who discovered it makes no sense what so ever, they were not free enough for Commons so they had to go. That you've managed to replace some of the images is great. Had the unfree images not been nuked then those free versions would never have been created and creating free content is what Commons is all about. No I'm not going to draw replacements for the images I nominated just as I wouldn't take a photograph of some celeberty just because I found that the image we had here was a copytight violation. That said I might still work on some of them but NOT because I nominated their unfree predecessors for deletion. /Lokal_Profil 02:37, 30 November 2008 (UTC)

Source aknowledgment

Hi Lokal, please, explain me further why this request. I am not use to just "copy and paste", but derivative work, so I make a creation. If you find that one as "sourced" then I will completely create a new one. In the other hand, I cannot see the license or how can we determine the original source (creator). Eventually, I find your request as an obstacle for COA creators, as even if "copy and paste" the original creator cannot be identified. Rgds, --SanchoPanzaXXI (talk) 08:23, 16 December 2008 (UTC)

Hi Lokal, thank you for your reply. I find this issue a bit complex because the language, I would prefer to discuss and clarify this issue with someone in my mother language...I have read the license that states "(...)attribute the work in the manner specified by the author or licensor files". That's the point now, how to understand the "manner specified"? and also, what are the elements to take? all the elements, even the geometrical? in the case there are hundreds of files, which one take?. Take care, rgrds, --SanchoPanzaXXI (talk) 18:24, 18 December 2008 (UTC)

Hello Lokal, well, let me summarize this issue: I agree to recognize any artistical work in the files I upload, by referring its author name and file source in the summary...but only if I have used that element as digital support for my own creation, and especially if I have made no change at all. My concern was that in case that this element is shown in many files (let say for example, the spanish crown as designed by HansenBCN) what I would like is not to recognize any of that files, but the one we can consider as the original. This way will help to mention the real author. In the other hand, I would like from now to create only figures from my creation, based on ancient documents or pictures form real world...what if I create a new crossbow, shall I upload a new file?. I wish you to have a nice holidays and happy X-mas to you and people you love. Cheers, --SanchoPanzaXXI (talk) 11:39, 24 December 2008 (UTC)

Hej,

jag sag att bildet File:100SEKdetail.JPG raderades. Faktiskt hade jag ringad på riksbankan och de sa att deras bild var publika och det var okej att upplåda det.

Nu finns det inget att göra för att jag har det inte längre. Verkligen tyvärr.

Att det är ok att ladda upp är inte samma sak som att den är fri att använda. Utan en bekräftelse på att vem som helst får använda bilden till vad som helst inklusive kommersiella ändamål samt för att skapa härledda verk så kan bilden inte laddas upp till Commons. I detta fallet hade du dessutom anget att du var upphovsrättsmannen till bilden genom mallen {{GFDL-user|LordDamorcro|nl}}. /Lokal_Profil 13:40, 19 December 2008 (UTC)

Copyrights

Hi,

I was helping a friend to build a document cover in SVG and found one of your images that I would like to modify and use in the document. I'd love to put the proper attribution on the document but unfortunally it would not be possible. I read the licensing information and it state that the copyright holder can waive any condition in the licensing. Is that something that you'd be prepared to do if I were to give you more details on what I'd like to do with the Image and which image I'am talking about?

sgaron (talk)

Depends on the image, which one is it? Normaly I'd just accept something like "Bla. image by/modified from image by Lokal_Profil, CC-BY-SA-2.5" if it's digital it would need to be linked but if it's on paper then that text is enough. /Lokal_Profil 18:19, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

Hejsan Lokal Profil, jag har ikväll för första gången kollat lite närmare på dina bidrag till commons, och är faktiskt helt förbluffad. Dina tolkningar av vapen och flaggor är fruktansvärt bra, och du har gått igenom mängder av bilder. Därför vill jag tacka dig för ditt arbete! :) Förresten, när jag ändå är här är jag nyfiken på hur du gör de här bilderna? Du måste ha standardiserat arbetet på något sätt? //moralist (talk) 01:43, 26 December 2008 (UTC)

Tackar så mycket. Just vapen är rätt lätta att standardisera genom att de ofta använder sig av samma figurer. D.v.s. har man väl gjort/hittat ett bra lejon kan man sedan återanvända den figuren i flera vapen. Som det är nu har jag byggt upp en stor bas av vapen som jag sedan klipper och klistrar från. Problemet ligger i vapen med unika eller komplexa figurer (därav att inte alla kommunvapen är gjorda) eller de vapen där jag inte kan få tag i blasoneringarna (därav att många militärvapen saknas). /Lokal_Profil 15:13, 4 January 2009 (UTC)

The traces look great, an improvement was definitively needed. Just as a general comment. If you save the file as "Plain SVG" (if using Inkscape) it removes some of the unnecessary code, specifically stuff like the pathname to the folder in which you created the file, this might be interesting from a privacy point of view. For example since this file was created on the desktop it includes your username on the computer in question.

Template:Military Insignia

Hi, I have one small request, do you have any idea how to change this template? Because it adds to files category:Badges of rank. It creates the situation when graphics are in both general and particular category, so, when there are 500 images it is impossible to find anything (at the very begito you re are 100 files from Austria, that are also in autrian category). Sorry for that I write :P but I found that you also have edited this template. J a1 (talk) 18:08, 20 January 2009 (UTC)

In the good old days [27] the images would be placed in a specific subcategory based on the army parameter in the template.

Wikikoden för licensmall felaktig

Hej! Jag vill uppmärksamma att licensmallen Template:Cc-by-sa-2.5 (och den underliggande Template:Cc-by-sa-2.5/en) per den 24 november 2008 har aningen underlig kod, och därför renderas visuellt felaktigt när den införlivas i commons-artiklar. Det har sin grund i att någon tillsammans med en {{Autotranslate}}-mall infogade kod på ett inkorrekt vis. Här finns den redigeringen: oldid=16265310. Fram till och med den då omedelbart föregående versionen genererades licensmallen fortfarande korrekt. Sedan den felaktigt utförda redigeringen har i skrivande stund tre administratörer på commons gjort ändringar i sagda licensmall, men utan att korrigera felet. (Ingen skugga över dem dock – alla har inte tid att studera alla detaljer, eller kanske den kunskap som behövs, eller ens lust. Och detta är förstås frivilligt.) Som "vanlig" användare på commons har jag inte behörighet att göra ändringar i koden, då den som till de flesta (alla?) licensmallar tack och lov är skrivskyddad. Själva {{Autotranslate}}-mallen används som du säkert vet även i andra licensmallar – exempelvis Template:Cc-by-2.5 – och där ser den ut att fungera som den ska. Eftersom flera admins av någon anledning gått bet, så vänder jag mig till dig istället, då jag sett och uppskattar det jobb du gör här och på svenskspråkiga Wikipedia. Och om inte du har tid, lust eller ork att fixa felet, så känner du säkert till någon annan behörig som har det… :-) --Tommy Kronkvist (talk) 03:47, 21 January 2009 (UTC)

Försvarsmaktslogotyp

Hej,

Måste säga att det var gediget arbetat med logotyperna. Väldigt omfattande arbete.

Jag jobbar inom Försvarsmakten och vi skulle väldigt gärna lägga upp våra officiella logotyper på wikipedia om det finns ett intresse bland användarna. Givetvis är det smickrande att ni gjort egna logotyper, men liksom andra svenska o utländska myndigheter o företag så skulle vi givetvis uppskatta den ursprungliga logotypen.

Min fråga till dig är, hur lägger man upp en bild/logotyp på wikipedia eller kan du göra det åt oss om du är intresserad? Vi har alla förbands officiella logotyper att tillgå.

Mvh,
Mats Nyström
FM Informationsstab

Hej Mats,

Det ar kul att ni garna vill lagger upp era logotyper pa wikipedia. Sjalva processen ar latt men det finns ett hinder. Alla bilder som laggs in pa Wikipedia maste vara fria for vem som helst (aven utanfor wikipedia) att anvanda for vad som helst (inklusive kommersiella andamal samt for att skapa harledda verk). Om ni trots detta fortfarande ar intresserade av att slappa logotyperna fria sa skulle det vara underbart och jag hjalper garna till med uppladdningsbiten, men av erfarenhet vet jag att de flesta foretag och organisationer inte ar redo att slappa dessa rattigheter till sina bilder.

Anledningen till att Wikipedia (i detta fallet jag) kan skapa fria versioner ar for att de logotyper ni anvander ar grundade pa heraldiska vapen. Eftersom heraldiska vapen (till skillnad fran logotyper) enbart ar definerade av en blasonering (snarare an en specifik grafisk framstallning) betyder det att alla heraldiskt korrekta tolkningar av dem kan anvandas. Detta tillater oss att gora illustrationer som ar fria nog for wikipedia utan att gora intrang pa upphovsratten hos de tolkningar FM anvander sig av samtidigt som wikipedias tolkningar fortfarande ar lika korrekta som FMs versioner.

Engelsksprakiga wikipedia har nagot annorlunda regler an de flesta andra sprakversioner och tillater en del upphovsrattsskyddade logotyper, darav kan man stota pa vissa foretags och organisationers logotyper pa deras sidor. Aven de har dock begransnignen att dessa bilder enbart far anvandas om inga fria alternativ finns att tillga, eftersom heraldiska vapen alltid (i teorin) har fria alternativ ar/bor dessa inte vara tillatna pa engelsksprakiga wikipedia.

Oavsett om ni valjer att slappa era bilder fria eller inte uppskattar jag kommentarer etc. kring FMs heraldiska vapen.

P.S. (ursakta for bristen pa svenska bokstaver)

Hej,

Tack för det utförliga svaret. Vi skulle vilja lägga upp våra blasoneringar på wikipedia. Hur gör man för att ladda upp bilder?

/Mats

Ursäkta för det sena svaret. Är det blasoneringarna elelr de upphovsrättsligt skyddade bilderna du vill ladda upp?

Om det är bilderna så behöver du registrera ett konto här på Commons. När du sedan laddar upp bilderna behöver du märka dem med en fri licens. Eftersom det är officiella bilder krävs det dessutom att du skickar ett mail permissions-commons@wikimedia.org där du detaljerar vilka bilder det gäller samt bifogar bevis på att konstnärerna för vart enskilt vapen släpper bilden under den licensen. Alternativt om konstnärerna har överlåtit upphovsrätten till bilderna till Försvarsmakten så krävs ett bevis från dem (dvs. någon som är tillräckligt högt stående för att få fatta ett sådant beslut, gärna någon med lite juridiskt kunnande dessutom) på att de äger upphovsrätten till bilderna samt släpper dem under den fria licensen. /Lokal_Profil 20:16, 17 April 2009 (UTC)

Den nya speedy handlar om att jag såg att kronan (i png versione) och hela vapnet (eller atminstonne kronan) i svg versionen ar derivat av statsarkivets bild. /Lokal_Profil 16:41, 28 February 2009 (UTC)

Med kronorna menar jag den ovanpå skölden. /Lokal_Profil 16:48, 28 February 2009 (UTC)

Radera inte förbättrade vapen

Hej!

Jag såg att du raderat ett antal vapen jag just gjort former röd eleganta mälking.

I vissa fall angav du som motiv att vapnen (lilla riksvapnet) skulle vara ett derivat. Men det stämmer inte; det är baserat på en fri svg som är baserad på en tryckt bild från 1908 och som därför är i public domain. Var snäll och kolla upp sådant innan du markerar för radering. Jag gissar dock att det verkliga skälet till att du velat radera bilderna var att jag ersatte några vapen du hade laddat upp.

De vapen du gjort motsvarar ett fantastiskt arbete, det är verkligen imponerande. Men trots det så är det möjligt att göra en del förbättringar. Färgerna i dina vapen är märkliga; röd-orange istället för guld och en stickande klarblå istället för marinblå. Vidare så ser det bättre ut med mer luft på skölden och med mer eleganta former i övrigt. Jag förstår att de är del av en serie, men vapnen borde förbättras trots detta. Efterhand kan man ersätta alla vapen med förbättrade versioner.

Koyos (talk) 08:25, 28 February 2009 (UTC)

Som sagt ladda gärna upp dina versioner under nya filnamn men skriv inte över de nuvarande filerna eftersom det inte handlar om en självklar förbättring. Se bara till att källreferenserna är tillräckliga (se meddelande pa din diskussionssida). vad gäller derivata märkningen är det samma situation som kronorna (dvs. de ovanpå skölden) i File:Sweden-lesser-coa.png, dvs. att de är baserade på statsarkivets upphovsrättsligt skyddade ritnign. Dina nya kronor verkar dock vara ok (glöm inte att ange källa för dem ifall du inte har ritat dem helt själv utan att använda delar från andra bilder). /Lokal_Profil 16:52, 28 February 2009 (UTC)

Vad gäller utfyllnad av skölden (luft på skölden) så är den heraldiska traditionen snarare tvärt om, dvs. att sklden bör vara så fylld som möjligt. Om du ändå håller på att ändra färgerna så rekommenderar jag att du byter till de som rekommenderas här. /Lokal_Profil 17:11, 28 February 2009 (UTC)

Jag har sett den sidan med de definierade färgerna, men tack för tipset. De färger jag har använt är mycket lika de färgerna, dock inte exakta. Den blåa CMYK nyans som anges där blir mycket ljus, mycket ljusare än faktiska vapen man ser i tryck, så man bör lägga svart till den färgen.

Kungakronan du talar om tog jag direkt från en av kronorna i (en av de på lejonen). Så den kommer inte från någon illustration från Riksarkivet. Illustatören till säger att han har utgått från när han skapade den, och den filen är i public domain. Att två kronor ser lika ut behöver inte betyda att den ena kommer från den andra: det kan också vara så att båda kronorna bygger på samma original. Om detta original är PD så är det helt ok att olika derivat liknar varandra. När det gäller den här typen av heraldiska element är det faktiskt mycket sannolikt att det är så. Illustrationerna hos riksarkivet bygger på tidigare bilder de också. Koyos (talk) 18:06, 28 February 2009 (UTC)

Jo jag såg nyss att de lejonen för den kronan. Problemet är att de kommer från kronan i File:Sweden-lesser-coa.png som i sin tur kommer ifrån Riksarkivet. Jag har kontaktat SSolberg och bett honom använda sig av kronan på skölden eller på manteln även på lejonen (de kronorna är ok). Hur som helst är din nya kronan nog ok (och dessutom bra mycket snyggare).

Färgerna är väl följande

Omkategorisering

Du har omkategoriserat några bilder som tidigare låg i category:MS Polar star, och lagt dem i category:Njord. Dels vapnet men också de tecknade bilderna, Polar Star och Njord är samma båt och teckningarna av båten föreställer fartyget som det ser ut i dag (med namnet MS Polar Star) (därför skapade jag en ny mapp när jag laddade upp fotona och placerade allt där). Därför verkar det du gjorde leda till en lite ologisk uppdelning eller har jag missat något? Mvh --Ankara (talk) 01:12, 19 March 2009 (UTC)

Det inte jag som omkategoriserat utan user:Stunteltje. Däremot kan jag tycka att vapnet hör hemma i Njord kategorin (tillsammans med eventuella foton av fartyget som Njord) eftersom vapnet enbart förts av Njord och aldrig av Polar Star. Flyttar däremot över tecknignarna eftersom de föreställer just Polar Star. Har dessutom lagt till kommentarer på kategorisidorna. /Lokal_Profil 23:51, 19 March 2009 (UTC)

Category:Njord

You emptied category:Njord by redirecting two files to MV Polar star, although they had NJORD in their name. Special reason or intented to just copy the files and moved by mistake? --Stunteltje (talk) 07:22, 20 March 2009 (UTC)

Please see the discussion directly above. I do agree however that the files should probably be renamed. /Lokal_Profil 18:15, 20 March 2009 (UTC)

Sorry, but I don't speak the language and can't read the message. Looking better at the pictures, I saw that the ship name is Polar Star, so I understand why they are moved. My suggestion is to copy the files with a new name on the ship, unfortunately I don't have the knowledge to change the drawing(s) myself. Shame on me, being a a former profesional draftsman. :=)) --Stunteltje (talk) 21:13, 20 March 2009 (UTC)

Sorry about that So used to mixing that I didn't even reflect. The name fits the ship. Njord got renamed Polar Star and according to the photo File:MS_Polar_Star2.jpg the drawing seems to be correct. What I suggest however is that the filename gets changed since the ship might not have had the same colours (and bear logo) as Njord. /Lokal_Profil 23:56, 20 March 2009 (UTC)

Raderad bild

Hej LP!

För länge sedan fick jag en bild raderad File:Eliade01.jpg. Jag svarade på förfrågan om källa här: User_talk:Micke#Image_Tagging_Image:Eliade01.jpg, trots det raderades den, förmodligen pga att ingen kollade på min diskuss om jag svarat. Jag har inte tagit tag i det förrän nu och tänkte att du kanske ville kolla på det. Jag tog bilden från Rumänska wikipedia och det står klart och tydligt att bilden är PD, fast jag kan så klart inte verifiera det eftersom jag inte kan rumänska. Det är alltså fullt möjligt att bilden inte ska vara här trots allt. MiCkE 08:48, 8 April 2009 (UTC)

BlankMap-USA-states-Canada-provinces, HI closer.svg

Hi Lokal,

I'm interested in using this image (and perhaps others eventually) in a rich web application for my small company. The path and layer image data of the SVG would be programatically transformed and manipulated to present a thematic map of energy-related data along with the data set(s) I'm analyzing and presenting.

I would like to obtain non-exclusive rights to use this image commercially but don't wish have the CC-BY-SA license applied to my resulting work. I'm willing to attribute your efforts in our application, however, and could possibly pay a small amount for a commercial license or waiver to the share-alike component of this license.

I see this particular image appears to be a derived work based on the efforts of at least one other user (Roke/Astrokey44?) so this may require his/her consent and licensing as well.

Could send me your contact information so we could discuss this in more detail via phone or email?

Thanks,

-jmh (talk) 22:07, 8 June 2009 (UTC)

Hi. I've looked into it and for this you would need Roke/Astrokey44's consent as well. Granting an exception is fine by me however. If you send me an e-mail using this link then we can discuss any details =).

vector-images.com

Hi, is this this desired result? Looking at the {{Vector-images.com}} template, it doesn't look like there's any way to add a PD-because tag. I understand the purpose of tagging these vector-images.com images, but I'm not sure about doing it in this way (at least now after some time has past since it was a valid tag). Having it wrap the license tag like {{Self}} does suggests that that information (it being from VI.com) is somehow related to the PD status. Wouldn't it be better to disassociate it with anything to do with licensing? I know you've worked a lot in this area so that's why I'm asking you if we should change this. (BTW, I would think we would have some general template for Swaziland since "Swaziland does not have legislation on copyright." That's pretty substantial.

Om ingen konstnär anges i registret, titelbladet eller i anslutning med bilden så klassas bilden nog som "av anonym konstnär" och då gäller publiseringsdatum + 70 år om jag ej missminner mig. Om du har många filer (både sidor och extraherade bilder) kan det kanske vara värt att konstruera något i stil med template:PD-Ugglan, Template:PD-Nordens Flora och Template:PD-SFJ. Dvs. en specifik mall för boken som innehåller den relevanta informationen.

Idag har jag http-länkar till svwp i många fall och i kategorin för band tre har jag råkat skriva band ett på flera ställen. Det enda som är någorlunda viktigt för mig, är att Defsorten bevaras för sidorna (mindre viktigt för illustrationerna), där sorteringen ska följa sidordningen. Byter du namn på filerna, så orsakar du lite strul för oss på sv:wikisource, men det går att fixa. (Era verktyg verkar inte kunna se att bilder här används i source's sidnamnrymd.)

OK. Jag har nu satt AWB på att köra igenom kategorin för del 1. Det enda jag gör nu är fixar http länkar till svwp länkar samt licensmallarna. För band tre ska jag fixa "del I->del III" också. Om det är annat du vill ha fixat efteråt så är det bara att köra igenom det hela en gång till =). Angående wikisource så håller Check Usage koll på så väl wikisource som alla andra projekt, se t.ex. [28]. /Lokal_Profil 21:00, 18 September 2009 (UTC)

Ser finfint ut!

Tja, tar du en illustration, så syns den med Check Usage, men tyvärr inte alltid en boksida som vi har lagt in i sidnamnrymden. Denna namnrymd används just för korrekturläsning. Sannolikt syns den inte för att det är en annan teknik som används för bild-infogningen på sådana sidor än de flesta andra. (Du kan tex inte klicka på en sådan bild och komma till common.)

Nåväl, det är inte hela världen, jag har svårt att se att ngn skulle få för sig att börja modda en hel kategori av sådana sidor. Titelbladet läggs nästan alltid in i index-namnrymden, och den syns med Check Usage. -- Lavallen (talk) 12:51, 19 September 2009 (UTC)

Hum, låter intressant. Kan du ge mig ett exempel på en sådan sida så jag kan ta mig en titt?/Lokal_Profil 14:31, 19 September 2009 (UTC)

En av de sist uppladdade sidorna är Sida:Biblia Fjellstedt II (1890) 104.jpg. (OCR'en för denna sida var som för många där det är frakturstil på texten, närmast värdelös.)

På Indexsidan finns alla sidor i sidnamnrymden som hör till samma bok/band samlade.

I Kategori:Index alla böcker under korrekturläsning samlade.

Vissa av dem har sidor som bygger på djvu-filer, och ser det lite annorlunda ut...

Om du är inloggade i sidnamnrymden har du möjlighet att påverka statusraden för sidan, så att den kan vara grön: validerad, gul: korrekturläst, eller röd: ej korrekturläst.

De olika textsidorna i sidnamnrymden sammanfogas (transkluderas kallas det av ngn anledning) i huvudnamnrymden som wikisource kallar för textnamnrymden. Du ser ett exempel från Fjellstedts bibel i Första Boken Mose kap 1-26 som är långt ifrån färdigkorrekturläst än. -- Lavallen (talk) 17:39, 19 September 2009 (UTC)

Ok, då ser jag varför Check Usage excluderar dessa sidor. De är i stort sett samma sak som "Bild" namnrymden på sv.wiki nu när alla bilder ligger på Commons. Eftersom en sådan sida redan finns (indirekt) för vilken bild som helst som ligger på Commons så går det inte att kolla. Är det ett vanligt förekommande problem att denna typen av filer döps om utan att folk kollar om de används på source? Gillar förresten "Sida" namnrymdsfunktionen, verkar som en fungerande version av hur korrekturläsningen på Runeberg fungerade. Och med tanke på sidor som t.ex. File:Biblia Fjellstedt II (1890) 007.jpg så är det inte konstigt att OCRen misslyckas =)/Lokal_Profil 18:34, 19 September 2009 (UTC)

Aldrig hört talas om att det hänt att en bild flyttas. (Om det händer måste sidan flytta efter, annars funkar det inte.) Det är ju inte sidor som är superintressanta för användare utanför source.

Tekniken är vad jag förstått, relativt ny och det är mycket nyligen som vi passerade 2000 boksidor på svenska source. Engelska, franska och tyska är de stora, och tyska tar inte längre in ngn text som inte bygger på denna teknik.

Tömningen av svwp' fil-namnrymd var väl i full gång när jag kom dit och hade avslutats när jag började bli riktigt varm i kläderna, så att jag kunde fatta vad som skedde.

Varför inte soruce har följt efter, vet jag inte, de regler som vi har är hårdare än commons, så inget borde finnas där som inte kan läggas på common. Det ser konstigt nog, ut som att det fortfarande går att ladda upp filer på svenska source.

Men det är en helt annan fråga som kanske borde diskuteras ngn annanstans. -- Lavallen (talk) 18:59, 19 September 2009 (UTC)

Det har förresten hänt att försättsblad med text från Google-book har tagits bort, men då av ngn av oss själva samt då i en djvu-fil. I sådana fall måste flyttar göras av texten med utan redirect, och ibland lite raderande, varför jag bett och fått sysop-status på sv-source. -- Lavallen (talk) 19:04, 19 September 2009 (UTC)

Letat lite, men inte hittat ngn mer bra kategori för File:Fjellstedt Israels läger.jpg. Det är en förenklad karta över Israeliternas läger under den 40-åriga ökenvandringen. -- Lavallen (talk) 15:08, 24 September 2009 (UTC)

Jag la till Category:Exodus vilket jag tror borde passa. /Lokal_Profil 14:58, 26 September 2009 (UTC)

File:Blank US Map, striped.svg opacity friendly?

original

for less opaque fill styles

Any possibility of editing File:Blank US Map, striped.svg so that one can use variable opacity in the fill styles?

Currently, there's a solid backdrop then stripes overlaid. It'd be better if there were two sets of stripes, offset (translated?) to be separate. For example, if one changes ".frog" style to "fill: #459700;opacity: 0.3", ColoradO's "Solid-frog" is striped instead of solid. --Goldfndr (talk) 07:39, 23 September 2009 (UTC)

What's stopping you from changing it? ¦ Reisio (talk) 20:41, 23 September 2009 (UTC)

My normal SVG editor is either notepad.exe or sed.exe -- if there was an svg-1 userbox, it'd fit me. I'm not (yet!) confident in an ability to learn an SVG editor well enough to isolate the path and duplicate it, or to trial-and-error an appropriate transformation matrix. --Goldfndr (talk) 01:56, 24 September 2009 (UTC)

Ah, looked like you knew how to do what you wanted. ¦ Reisio (talk) 03:19, 24 September 2009 (UTC)

I've now upped File:Blank US Map, striped2.svg to be used for variable opacity fill styles. The problem with using it for completely opaque styles is (as can be seen in the preview) that white areas appear between the stripes even though there is no codewise reason for this (the stripes share exactly the same nodes). To make things more confusing the gap between them looks different in different renderers and resolutions. Once a less opaque fill style is used though this becomes significantly less noticeable (and less important). Anyhow I hope that this will be of use =) /Lokal_Profil 14:56, 26 September 2009 (UTC)

Potential featured picture?

Hi, dropping by to congratulate your fine work at File:Map of US Suffrage, 1920.svg. It's close to qualifying for the local en:wiki site standards for featured picture. The one important element it doesn't have is reference documentation. Could you supply the source or sources used for the information it represents? Full citation information (book, publisher, page number, date, etc.) and it would make a strong candidate for featured content promotion. Best regards, Durova (talk) 07:25, 12 October 2009 (UTC)

Bosnian (and other) coats of arms

Hi Lokal Profil. I originally transferred all of these from local (Bosnian/Croatian/Serbian) Wikipedias where most of them were subsequently deleted for having unclear copyright status. However, I believe that Template:PD-BiH-exempt should be applicable. Regards --20percent (talk) 23:52, 12 October 2009 (UTC)

The CoAs probably got nuked for not having a clear source and/or license .As far as PD-BiH-exempt it's not as straight forward to apply as one might think. I had a discussion with Lupo about it here and the conclusion is that a) one has to prove that it explicitly covers images such as flags and CoAs. Once this is done one has to prove that it covers sub-national coat of arms and flags. /Lokal_Profil 16:40, 14 October 2009 (UTC)

True enough, and near impossible to prove - state institutions in BiH (and neighbouring countries) generally don't care about copyright laws unless forced to do so. That includes copying from Wikimedia/Wikipedia for their own websites, by the way. Well, dunno - feel free to delete them. Best regards --20percent (talk) 17:18, 14 October 2009 (UTC)

The way I did it was by constructing an advanced Excel worksheet which (once the data is correctly formated) grouped the countries by according to their final colours and outputted the relevant code which I then just had to copypaste into the top section of the svg template map. I.e. if we take File:World map of Energy consumption 1979-1981.svg as an example and you open it in a text editor (e.g. Wordpad in Windows, don't use Word or a similarly advanced program) the only sections you need to edit are the "metadata" section (basically just to change the title and date). And the section between /*Info added by Lokal_Profil */ and /* * Sea. Everything else should be left unchanged. I can send you the excel sheet if you want to play around with it or I can create the new maps for you if you preferr that. /Lokal_Profil 20:43, 23 October 2009 (UTC)

You will be able to make a separate map for women and men? This map only covers the total which is a lot less interesting than the separate figures.

Done. Used the 2009 sex ratios since these were easiest to find, in theory one should use the ratios from the same year as the data from a particular country but that would be way to much work for probably no visual difference.

Generation of maps

A map of the death rate from gastroenteritis [35] or diarrhea would be excellent as this the leading cause of death in children under 5 years old world wide. I do not know how long it takes you to make a map are how many more you are interested in producing but IMO all these maps really add to the global perceptive of disease and really improve Wikipedia. Even the WHO does not provide this data in graphic form. Three tabs over they give the number of deaths per 100,000.Jmh649 (talk) 03:34, 6 November 2009 (UTC)

Hey LP Slowing figuring out how your excel file works. Unfortunately it is not exactly the same as the WHO excel which means I have done a bit of moving around for the TB one. I guess we could probably do them as one big bunch so for all the maps would only need to do one move. Any easier way than by hand?

You are right for the psyc topics DALYs would be best. I guess the next question is should they be age standardized. For stuff like cancer this would be important. And maybe for all other conditions too?

I've done quite a lot of improvements to the Excel file since I sent it to you, would you like me to send the new one? I've got the WHO file hammered out so map generation can be started whenever the DALY/age question is resolved. I don't really know when DALY is more suitable then death (except for psyc of course) or when age standardised is important. From en:Age-standardized mortality rate I get the impression that it is always preferable over crude rates. /Lokal_Profil 03:23, 8 November 2009 (UTC)

Okay lets do age standardization for all of them. All the cancers can be done as age standardized mortality. The only ones that need to be DALY is the psyc and sense organ conditions IMO.Jmh649 (talk) 03:31, 8 November 2009 (UTC)

Okay entered my first set of data. Now setting the range. It only gives room for one value. Does this mean it starts at the minimum and goes too the value set in the box?Jmh649 (talk) 03:13, 8 November 2009 (UTC)

Starts at the value in the box and goes to the next (higher) value. If you scroll right to the legends they show exactly what is in which range. /Lokal_Profil 03:25, 8 November 2009 (UTC)

I'm still having trouble distinguishing empty cells from 0 valued cells. This is why the lowest range setting is non-zero. /Lokal_Profil 03:29, 8 November 2009 (UTC)

Ah yes I see. If you could send me an updated copy that would be great. I have uploaded it to google documents so that groups can edit it in their cloud application.Jmh649 (talk) 03:33, 8 November 2009 (UTC)

Also how does one open the svg to edit it again ( ie put in the data from the excel )Jmh649 (talk) 03:37, 8 November 2009 (UTC)

My first .svg Death rate per 100,000 Tb

Managed to create my first one with a great deal of your help.  :-) Thanks. Much of the data however did not come through right. Will need further work. Maybe the countries with no data are messing it up?Jmh649 (talk) 04:26, 8 November 2009 (UTC)

(undent) btw should we be coloring Greenland the same as Denmark? They are the same country.Jmh649 (talk) 04:28, 8 November 2009 (UTC)

It's not only Greenland, just that it's big enough to spot. By default British overseas territories, (British) Crown dependencies, Kingdom of the Netherlands, Overseas collectivities of France, USA insular areas and Kingdom of Denmark (you can see the details under the section about former countries) are not bunched up with their parent countries. This is because data gathered most often doesn't take these areas into account or gives them separately.

For the WHO data it might be worth colouring them though, can turn that on easily enough if you want. /Lokal_Profil 12:34, 8 November 2009 (UTC)

We in Canada have the WP:Northwest Territories which is about the size of Greenland. People speak a different language. Live in very different conditions and have very different life expectancy / disease rate. Yet the number of people are so small the area is not separated out on WHO maps. I think the same logic can be applied to Greenland.Jmh649 (talk) 13:49, 8 November 2009 (UTC)

The difference is more related to how self governing they are. But still I agree that territories/dependencies should probably be coloured for the WHO data. /Lokal_Profil 16:31, 8 November 2009 (UTC)

Updated and expanded data

Hey LP Added most of the maps. Found some updated WHO data. From 2004 published in 2006. Should we continue on from here? http://www.who.int/healthinfo/global_burden_disease/estimates_regional/en/index.html Jmh649 (talk) 21:58, 11 November 2009 (UTC)

2009 data set just out. Looks like they are still adding some of it to the site. http://www.who.int/whosis/whostat/EN_WHS09_Tables.xls Jmh649 (talk) 22:27, 11 November 2009 (UTC)

YES, but NO but yes, but no... really ambivalent about this. Never data is good but the 2002 is halfway done... the obsessive compulsive part of me cannot leave it half done... There are currently 62-65 maps missing in the 2002 set and 61 done... will there be any need of the 2002 maps once the 2004 ones are done? At least the 2004 should go quicker since I can probably reuse the ranges from 2002 (deciding the range is what takes ~75% of the time for each map). I took a quick peak at the 2009 data and it looks as though it might only be relevant for a few diseases, although there is a lot of data there which isn't at all available in the 2004/2002 data sets.

As an aside did you say you preferred the cancer maps as death rates rather then DALY rates or both or DALY only?

As a second aside. As mentioned above I do have a Google docs account. The reason I haven't upped the "generator" there is that it tends to manhandle the files and change them. Even if you upload an excel file to Google docs then export it to xls and then open it in excel it doesn't look the same any more. Working on the WHO2002 data has made me do a lot of minor (and major) changes to the generator. Once the frequency of these changes goes down I'll send you an updated version. /Lokal_Profil 00:57, 12 November 2009 (UTC)

Age adjusted death rates for the cancer mortality I think would be best to start with. Will want the 2004 data eventually. They warn however that comparison will not be that accurate. It depends on how much work it will be for you. If we do the 2004 set we can come back and finish the 2002?Jmh649 (talk) 01:39, 12 November 2009 (UTC)

Gender and mental illness / cancer

Both rates of cancer and mental illness vary significantly with gender. We will be able to create maps of both sexes. This will give an extra nuance. :-) Jmh649 (talk) 02:23, 12 November 2009 (UTC)

I'll attack the "all persons" 2004 data set first and leave the gender specific one for later. Alternatively this is one you could work on if you want some coaching. /Lokal_Profil 00:00, 13 November 2009 (UTC)

Regarding the practice map above. You'll need to rearrange the WHO data so that the countries come in the same order as in the Excel file (e.g. Korea, republic of vs. Republic of Korea changes the order). This includes having empty rows for countries not included in the WHO data (e.g. Lichtenstein). Also don't forget that the data talks about "Serbia and Montenegro" which means Montenegro and Serbia are both blank and the data goes in the "former countries" section. /Lokal_Profil 15:42, 13 November 2009 (UTC)

2004 set

Hey LP have all the 2002 set up that have been created. Will add the 2004 set as you create them. Cheers. Jmh649 (talk) 21:08, 12 November 2009 (UTC)

I've uploaded the first four 2004 maps to User:Lokal Profil/WHO2004. I started with the ones that are defined differently from the 2002 data set (otherwise I'll forget them). I'll probably go on from Cardiovascular through to War and then do the Cancers (death rate) and Other Neoplasms (death rate?). Once these are done I'll do the ones for which there are already 2002 maps.

BTW most of the maps are currently missing theme-specific categories. Since this relies on knowledge about disease categorisation/naming I was wondering if you could take a look at it. Might also be that you know of an Commons active Health/Medicine project which knows what goes what and if any categories should be created. /Lokal_Profil 00:09, 13 November 2009 (UTC)

Hey LP have not done any work with categorization at commons. I have added all my images to the category medicine. Not sure what sort of structure is being used.Jmh649 (talk) 16:44, 13 November 2009 (UTC)

It looks like the 2004 data set was actually published in 2009 after a consultation in 2008 with member states.

They also break it down by age group. This means that we can get pediatrics maps out of this data set :-)

1536 års översättningar

Hejsan!

Jag har bett om hjälp på Bybrunnen, men responsen verkar låta vänta på sig. Jag skulle behöva något liknande {{PD-Sweden-photo}} som hänvisar till att filerna är: photographic pictures och att bilderna därför är fria.

Det rör sig om tre band med faksimiler av en bibel som gavs ut som ett provisorium 1536 under utvecklingen av Gustav Vasas bibel. Det var alltså ett slags provtryck som gjordes av fyra bibelböcker och inte en komplett bibel. Jag hämtar materialet i böcker som gavs ut 1956-60. (Vissa sidor, med redaktionell text, i böckerna är inte fria.)

I mallen ovan finns dessutom en länk till svenska wikisource. Den är dock inaktuell eftersom vi inte kan ha gällande lagar ligggande. Vi har inte kunskap och tid till att uppdatera dem. Detta har tidigare diskuterats flitigt på flera platser. Hittar du ngn annan länk, vore det fint...

The problem is that the second map isn't any good. The first map has every country separated and encoded for easy colouring. The one you've pointed to is only one big polyhedron making no difference between the countries. If you find a public domain tool similar to http://gsl-nagoya-u.net/appendix/software/worldmap/ that can change the projection then I'll try making a new map. /Lokal_Profil 22:20, 20 December 2009 (UTC)

In PNG projection the borders are there. I tried to figure out that toll, sorry, no good. Thank you though. Kintetsubuffalo (talk) 11:28, 21 December 2009 (UTC)

Should probably have been clearer. Yes the borders are there in the svg map as well. The problem is that the countries haven't been separated out. To give an analogy it's like a puzzle where each country is a piece but all of the pieces have been put together and then glued to the board underneath. To make it useful one needs to break away each puzzle piece and then put the name of the country on the back of it. And that is just to much manual work. /Lokal_Profil 21:20, 11 January 2010 (UTC)

Couple of questions

I have a couple of questions regarding File:BlankMap-World6.svg (mainly out of curiosity). Why is Antarctica colored differently than the rest of the continents? Is this due to no population being there? But my main question has to do with the border colors. Why are they the same color as the ocean? Wouldn't it be easier to make them black? It would especially help out for the countries and islands which are too small to be made out if the borders remain white. —NuclearVacuum 18:49, 4 February 2010 (UTC)

Sorry for the delay. I think Antarctica is coloured different for historical reasons. That is it used to be a separate path defined outside the block of the nations and without an ISO id. As to the border colours I think it's for a) aesthetic reasons (yes it makes islands clearer but makes small countries less clear) but also b) historical reasons: the borders didn't use to match up exactly (might be that they still don't). With black borders this becomes really obvious (no overlap between borders/to much overlap/partial overlap/lines which appear thicker at certain resolutions etc.) whereas with background coloured borders there is a larger margin for errors. /Lokal_Profil 18:26, 1 March 2010 (UTC)

I mina ogon ar det fortfarande ett harlett verk men jag orkar inte kabbla om det mer. Dessutom har jag ett bestammt minne av att originalet (mojligen under ett annat filnamn) var mycket mer likt och att den nuvarande versionen ur den vinkeln ar en forbattring. Men men...

Appro pa de senaste meddelandena till din diskussionssida sa rensade jag upp bland gammla svenska vapenskoldar utan licens och det var da jag stotte pa de tva. Upplands-bro ar problematisk da det ror sig om konturerna en gammal (fri) skulptur. Sa hurvida den ar skyddad beror pa hur mycket originell tolkining som ar involverad.

Huruvida upphovsrättsraderingen var felaktig eller inte är oklart eftersom den första diskussionen bestämde radera och den andra inte. Det diskussionen här gäller är att det är opassande att undelete-diskussioner förs utan att de som deltagit i delete-diskussionen informeras, speciellt då den som nominerat bilden. Att diskutera bilden hår verkade ju fungera eftersom vi alla har denna sidan bevakade, hade diskussionen utvecklats till att mer specifikt handla om bilden så skulle jag rekommendera att diskutera den på bildens diskussionssida ;). /Lokal_Profil 14:05, 6 March 2010 (UTC)

File:Canada 1957 Federal Election.svg

Hi, could you modify the above image to take care of the following:

• Totals at top: PC under Diefenbaker 112, Liberal under St. Laurent 105, Other 4 (Social Credit and CCF remain the same)
• Northwest Territories: Deep red, 60 plus percent
• Yukon: Light red (40-50)
• Ontario: Liberal should read 21. "OTH" should be omitted.
• Quebec: PC should read 9. "OTH" should read 4.

This is due to a couple of errors and a couple of candidates who ran without approval from central office but who immediately caucused with their parties and their vote totals are counted that way in most references.

Many thanks for your help.--Wehwalt (talk) 13:39, 5 March 2010 (UTC)

Note: As a reader/reviewer of the 1957 election article, I have a few problems with the map as it now appears in the article:-

• It is quite difficult to read the figures when they are superimposed on the darker colours. Would it be possible, in these instances, to include the figures within a white strip or box?
• It's also hard to understand exactly what the colours are representing. I found the key, top right, difficult to fathom.
• Would it be possible to label the provinces or territories? Many readers will be unfamiliar with Canadian political geography.

Brianboulton (talk) 11:03, 13 March 2010 (UTC)

To join in Brian's request, can a key be added in the space below the 49th parallel listing the postal abbreviations and the province names? I think that is all that is needed now, many thanks for your work.--Wehwalt (talk) 19:09, 14 March 2010 (UTC)

• I corrected the dark text on dark background, this was a left over from the correction Wehwalt told me about.
• As for the colours they represent <40, 40-50, 50-60 >60 %. I think it's quite clear and I'm not entirely sure how to improve it.
• As for territory lables the map areas are labled by postal (?) abreviations. It should be possible to add a key to these in the bottom left corner. Alternatively a legend can be added to the image (on the page where it is used) linking to Canadian_federal_election,_1957#Results_by_province. The second would be a lot easier (and easily done for all of the maps) but I'll take a look at whether the first is possible as well.

Swallowtails

Well, as of now, there is no place for swallow-tailed pennants, however I could create one for them, within the Pennants category. I just removed them, from the Swallow-tailed Flags category as a pennant isn't a flag by definition. I was actually planning on further categorizing the swallow-tailed flags by nations with a great many of them. I'll have that done later though. Fry1989 (talk) 19:14, 11 April 2010 (UTC)

Lakes on File:BlankMap-World6.svg

I am curious on how you can get the lakes to be part of the nation, yet act as if nothing is there. I have been trying to figure this out for a while now, but I can't get it right. Can you help me out a little? --NuclearVacuum (talk) 16:01, 17 April 2010 (UTC)

Not sure I understand exactly how you mean. Do you just want the lake to be grouped with the nation but not coloured or do you want them to be actual holes in the landmass? /Lokal_Profil 17:19, 17 April 2010 (UTC)

Sorry for the confusion, I can't even explain it either. Let me try it this way. How did you get the lakes of Canada and Russia to be the way they are right now? From what I can see, they appear to be holes in the landmass. --NuclearVacuum (talk) 18:34, 17 April 2010 (UTC)

Aha. The way they are done you combine the two paths (lake and landmass) into one path. Then you set the style "fill-rule:evenodd". This means that the outermost shape is filled and the innermost isn't. If there was an island on the lake and you combined it's path with the landmass-lake path then the evenodd fill-rule would make landmass and island filled but lake unfilled. /Lokal_Profil 09:47, 18 April 2010 (UTC)

Deleted per Commons:Deletion requests/Image:Vestfold vapen.png

Hm, I see you've deleted File:Vestfold vapen.png with the summary "per Commons:Deletion requests/Image:Vestfold vapen.png... That doesn't really make much sense, has there been a second DR or was there otehr reasons for deletion? Best regards, Finn Rindahl (talk) 11:02, 3 May 2010 (UTC)

...and also, the deleted file was simply removed from articles, instead of being replaced by file:Vestfold våpen.svg. I seem to remember that Commonsdelinker can't replace png with svg, but if more of those old png weapons will be deleted it would be easier to replace them (manually) first, instead of having to backtrack Comdelinks actions like I'm now doing...

First, congratulation for your work with the coats of arms.

Dammit, that is very true. At some point when I've got more time I'll have to tweak up a lion to replace all the ones in my CoAs (because there are sligt variations in the different ones).

Chagas disease

Lokal Profil,

I wonder whether you would consider looking at en:Talk:Chagas_disease#Epidemiology. It appears that new numbers are available for the Chagas DALY map, at File:Chagas disease world map - DALY - WHO2002.svg.

en:Chagas disease is being reviewed by an outside medical expert, through a pilot program that will ultimately increase high-quality, free medical information at the Swahili, Spanish, and Arabic language Wikipedias, by providing expert translations of these articles. Naturally, WikiProject Medicine would like to have these articles in the best possible shape before the translations begin. Please consider helping us by updating this image.

Thanks, WhatamIdoing (talk) 18:31, 13 May 2010 (UTC)

Botgöra?

Kan du föreställa dig att det finns botar som klarar den här typen av ändringar i en kategori? ~- Jag äger själv en AWB-bot, även om den inte har flagga här, men jag vet inte hur jag skulle kunna fixa ngt dyligt... -- Lavallen (talk) 18:56, 9 June 2010 (UTC)

Min AWB bot borde kunna göra det. Behöver bara kolla upp lite om regular expressions. Men borde den inte ersätta texten med {{subst:Fjellstedt-I-BookNaviBar|001|003}} så att det blir en BookNaviBar och en vanlig Information mall? /Lokal_Profil 23:20, 10 June 2010 (UTC)

Det är ett alternativ, jag kopierade lite kod från en tysk bok och hittade det här upplägget. I det fallet fanns information-mallen inbyggd i den lokala booknavbaren. - Som det är nu, så har bara de två första sidorna i volymen den här mallen, så det går lika bra att backa de redigeringarna och plocka bort information-delen från "min" mall. - Gör vi så, så blir även parameter 3 överflödig. -- Har haft tankar på att lägga in ytterligare en parameter för att kunna hantera de övriga banden. Men det kan vänta, det dröjer innan jag är färdig med de banden. - Jag kör lånsammare nu när jag har ett OCR-program som klarar fraktur, så jag hinner ifatt de usla OCR-sidorna jag redan lagt in. -- Lavallen (talk) 04:50, 11 June 2010 (UTC)

Koden behovs inte plockas bort. Genom at "subst":a mallen sa laggs en BookNaviBar och en vanlig Information mall till. Dvs. {{Fjellstedt-I-BookNaviBar}} blir ett valdigt bekvamt verktyg for att skapa sidorna men nar de val ar fardiga kan man redigera dem som vanligt. Vad jag kommer gora ar att lagga in mallen osubstad. Pa sa satt har du mojlighet att gora forandringar i mallen ett tag till (med resultatet att alla sidorna automatiskt uppdateras). nar du ar nojd/fardig sa ar det bara att hojta till igen sa kan jag kora botten over alla sidorna och substa =). Detta kan t.ex. goras nar vart ban ar fardigt. Har kommit pa hur jag enklast kan gora ersattnignen med AWB. For att gora detta ar det enklast om jag kan baka in kategoriseringen i mallen. Ar detta ok med dig? /Lokal_Profil 11:31, 14 June 2010 (UTC)

Det är helt ok att baka in kategoriseringen också. De förändringar i mallen jag funderar på gäller att göra den mer generell så den klarar även band 2 och 3. - Vilket vi inte behöver bekymra oss om för just denna kategori. Man kan ersätta "band I" med "band {{{band|I}}}" på några ställen i mallen så har det ingen betydelse för band I's kategori. Det finns några faksimiler där parameter "other_versions" är ifylld, jag har gjort plats för det i parameterplats 3. Sådana finns bara i band 1, än så länge. -- Lavallen (talk) 13:38, 14 June 2010 (UTC)

Och de medlemmar i kategorin som innehåller illustrationer behöver du inte åtgärda, de behöver ingen booknavbar, bara boksidorna. -- Lavallen (talk) 13:40, 14 June 2010 (UTC)

Har andrat om sa att parameter 3 nu ar "band" och parameter 4 (valbar) ar "other_versions". Ska forsoka fa tid att satta igang botten i veckan. Har aven designat metoden sa att du latt kan anvanda samma metod nar du laddar upp band 2 etc. Se exemplet pa User talk:Lokal Profil/Proxymall (obs fungerar inte for forsta och sista sidan). /Lokal_Profil 14:56, 16 June 2010 (UTC)

Får man vara nyfiken på att fråga vilka funktioner i AWB du använde? - Jag tycker jag gör avancerade mallbyten ibland med hjälp av vad du kallar proxymallar, men jag inser inte hur man fixar så indexeringen: 007, 008, 009,... etc blir rätt överallt här... - Lavallen (talk) 15:03, 19 June 2010 (UTC)

Det sker i två steg. Det första var att proxymallen sjalv omvandlade t.ex. 2 eller 002 till 001, 002, 003 sa som behovdes for de olika falten i mallen. Detta gjordes genom de i wiki inbyggda "pad" och "expr". I AWB hade jag turen att du redan hade numrerat bilderna i kategoriseringen (dvs. det stog langst nere Category:Fjellstedts bibel....|#002). Det var denna 002:a som jag skickade till proxymallen. For att identifiera denna med AWB anvande jag delvis regular expressions. Dvs. jag ersatte forsta delen av texten (fram till other_versions) med {{subst:User:Lokal_Profil/Proxy... Ersatte sedan texten fram till nummret med resten av proxymallen och till slut (anvandande regualr expressions) "$002]]" med "1=002}}". Med forbehall for diverse variationer sa var ersattnignarna i stort sett de foljande (den tredje med regular expressions forkryssad)

{{Information
|Description=Scannad bild av [[:sv:Peter Fjellstedts bibel|Peter Fjellstedts bibel]] med kommentarer uppl 1890 del I

Det fungerade relativt enkelt eftersom du varit valdigt uniform nar du laddat upp filerna (bara 3-4 olika variationer av texten), samt att du redan numrerat bilderna. Om du inte redan numbrerat dem sa antar jag att man kanske skulle kunna komma at numren via delar av PAGENAME men som tur var behovde jag inte ge mig pa detta. Hade jag lart mig regular expressions tidigare sa hade jag nog dessutom kunnat gora de tva forsta ersattnignarna enklare samt darmed undvikit de nu nodvandiga variationerna p.g.a. extra mellanslag, blanka linjer eller "Scanned by". Hoppas det hjalper =) /Lokal_Profil 11:51, 20 June 2010 (UTC)

Help to categorize

Hi mate, I need help to categorize a figure that I don't know the name in English. In Spanish is a "traba" and in Catalan, "trava". It's an object that don't let something to move. You can see it at the bottom of this COA: File:Escudo de Torredonjimeno.svg in red colour or at the top on this: File:Escut de Castell de Castells.svg on black color. Here in the first part: File:Escudo de Narón.svg, here at the bottom File:Escudo de Higuera de Calatrava.svg, File:Escudo de Abenójar.svg on black color. Thank you! --Xavigivax (talk) 14:24, 15 June 2010 (UTC)

Would you use it to stop a horse from moving? If so it would be a "hobble". But if it's something that you can use more generically, say to stop a door moving or even anything then I'm afraid I don't know the translation. Also it's not impossible that there is no literal translation for it. Do you know if it's used in heraldry outside of Spain? Until then just create the category Category:Traba in heraldry and it can be renamed later if we find a good translation. /Lokal_Profil 14:37, 16 June 2010 (UTC)

Sorry for the delay but I've been away for some time. In the meantime I've however been in contact with Zscout370 regarding the isssue, especially that of the Singapore arms (for which I now believe the situation has been resolved). As for the Kenya and Senegal arms I put my thoughts on these type of edits on my user page. These two have been reverted and I'd recommend both of you to discuss any future updates on the discussion pages.

As for the Spanish. It's fine to write to me in Spanish but since my spelling is horrible I'll reply in English (the same goes for messages in Portuguese). =)

That said I notice that you haven't correctly sourced your images. E.g. the Kenya arms contains the Rooster which can be seen in File:Blason_ville_fr_Gagnac-sur-Garonne_(Haute-Garonne).svg. Since this image is released GFDL/CC-BY-SA license you are required to attribute the creator when you use the image in a different place. Not doing so violates the copyright of the original image.

Por cierto, el escudo File:Coat of arms of Senegal.svg tiene una versión derivada del león que tu utilizas, tiene la cabeza rediseñada y el número correcto de garras en las patas. En ese caso también está retocado para que sea menos ancho y más largo que el original, para ocupar más espacio en el escudo. ¡Saludos! --Xavigivax (talk) 19:38, 13 August 2010 (UTC)

File:Coat of arms of Kenya.svg

Please revert back to my corrections. The shield of the Arms of Kenya reflect the national flag, therefore the firmbriations should be white, not grey. There was no "edit war" as you put it, the problem was Xavigivax being a user who refused to let me correct/improve his files, against common practice here. Fry1989 (talk) 22:51, 6 August 2010 (UTC)

In heraldry silver (argent in the blazon) can either be represented as grey or white. Both representations would be equally correct. /Lokal_Profil 23:56, 6 August 2010 (UTC)

Further evidence I'm right, according to site of Kenyan Embassy in Paris, shield uses colours from National Flag. At the Kenyan Embassy in Stockholm, banner appears to be darker, and word Harembee doesn't have a black border. These are the changes I wish to implement. Please remove the block against me editing the file. http://www.kenyaembassyparis.org/about-kenya/national-symbols and http://kenyaembassystockholm.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=18&Itemid=33 Fry1989 (talk) 00:55, 7 August 2010 (UTC)

I think you are misunderstanding the situation. If a coat of arms is defined by a blazon (textual description) then it is this description (only) which is relevant. Any images, done by the government in question or otherwise, are nothing but interpretations of the blazon and as such say nothing about what is the right or wrong way of drawing them. Further more since these image (e.g. on the embassy web pages) are copyrighted any attempt to make (the copyright free) interpretation of the blazon more like them would mean turning it (the free version) into a derived version of them and thus make it a copyright violation. I've summarised some of these points on my user page. /Lokal_Profil 09:37, 12 August 2010 (UTC)

And how exactly, would changing the colours of the shield to make them the same as the National flag(as the GOVERNMENT OF KENYA states) make it a copyright violation, when the Arms are already considered free enough to be on the Commons? Fry1989 (talk) 22:48, 12 August 2010 (UTC)

File:Self-inflicted injuries world map - Death - WHO2004.svg

Hi Lokal Profil,

At least one assumption you made for this map is probably wrong. Figures for the Netherlands most likely don't include the Netherlands Antilles and Aruba. These areas have such a high degree of autonomy that domestic issues are always managed locally. The only thing they don't have are an army and a foreign policy. For this reason, they are referred to as 'countries within the Kingdom'. The same will go, I reckon, for Greenland and the Faroe islands, but as I'm not as well acquainted with Danish politics as I am with Dutch politics, I'm less sure of that. 145.97.197.62 10:22, 19 August 2010 (UTC)

The data is assumed to included the Netherlands Antilles and Aruba since the UN didn't give separate data for these whilst still normally grouping them as one (even if the UN might be one of the few entities which does so). For this particular reason I've always mentioned these groupings, and other assumptions, on the image page (just below the legends). In the end though it doesn't make much difference. The small population of Aruba and the Netherlands Antilles means that the value for the Netherlands is hardly affected whilst the generation settings used is such that Aruba and the Netherlands Antilles will hardly be visible on the map (they are not given their own circles for the very reason that they have been bunched up as the Kingdom of the Netherlands). /Lokal_Profil 10:20, 20 August 2010 (UTC)

Remarks about national CoA

Since I currently don't have the time or energy to actively monitor all of the goings on with the problems surrounding Coat of arms of Kenya.svg, Coat of arms of Singapore (blazon).svg and probably some other CoA's, I'll just put my last remarks/thoughts here. These are in addition to the remarks on my user page.

There is a basic difference between CoA's and logos/flags with construction sheets. The embassy web page does say that the CoA contains the Flag colours but this says nothing about which shade of colours are used. A blazon can only specify the colour as red/gules, green/vert, black/sable not as specific Panetone shades or similar. Also since white doesn't exist as a colour in (traditional) heraldry a blazon will always use silver/argent instead (just as yellow gets replaced by gold/or).

When the drawing is made by the artist it's up to him/her to decide what shades of these colours to use and whether to represent gold/silver as yellow/white or gold(orangy yellow)/silver(grey). The same situation applies to the black lines between the different colours. Depending on which heraldic school you follow you'll either separate fields by black lines (Xavigivax's version) or not (Fry1989's version) either is valid and there is no reason why the latter versions should replace the first.

The important thing in the end is that it's the blazon which defines the CoA (whatever comments the embassy web pages etc. might have). Even if there happens to be a construction sheet for the CoA (as seems to be the case for Ukraine, Kazakhstan and Andorra) the blazon would still be the only relevant information for creating a free Commons image. Why? Because of copyright.

It's only the "independent interpretation of the blazon" which makes the loophole which allows the Commons versions not be derivatives of the official (official is a slightly misleading word but it's the best I can think of) drawing of the CoA. If you aim to make your image look like the official version then you've not made an independent interpretation. If you instead start from a construction sheet then then you will always reproduce the same image, within minor variations, and this will be the copyrighted official drawing of the coat of arms. Basically if you have a construction sheet for your CoA then it's just a shield shaped logo. Are countries allowed to do this and not use a blazon at all... of course they are, it just means that we cannot create a free version of it. Just like we can't produce a free version of the Internet Explorer logo. We could still produce images which remind us of the logo but unlike blazon interpretations these would not be considered valid versions of the image. /Lokal_Profil 12:39, 4 September 2010 (UTC)

Short comment. I've here interpreted construction sheet as meaning something like Flag of Australia template.svg rather then, say, a clear text version of a blazon. /Lokal_Profil 12:50, 4 September 2010 (UTC)

About the short comment, yes that is what I mean for a construction sheet. http://search.ligazakon.ua/l_doc2.nsf/link1/T213700.html is one that is available for a public domain coat of arms. I see what you are getting at with the whole design/concept idea. User:Zscout370 ^{(Return fire)} 19:14, 4 September 2010 (UTC)

But as for Kazakhstan and the Ukraine, their symbols are public domain due to their copyright laws. That is another thing I am keeping an eye on. User:Zscout370 ^{(Return fire)} 19:15, 4 September 2010 (UTC)

If the symol is PD then the situation becomes different since there is no longer a need for a free interpretation (although one might still be interesting for other reasons). In this case the official version can be uploaded or simply (manually) traced into a vector format if needed. /Lokal_Profil 00:36, 7 September 2010 (UTC)

File:Solna vapen.svg

Hi mate! I don't understand this: I blått fält en sol av guld., I supose that the translation is "(blått)Azure, a (sol)sun (guld)or". The questions is... if the blazon says only this, the sun would be figured (with face) and with 8 straight rays and 8 wavy rays. Could you confirme this, please? Almost in English, French and Spanish heraldry, the sun follow this rule. In other case, when the sun is not figured or has more or less rays, must be informed. These are three different references in English [46], French [47] and Spanish [48] or [49]. In Spain, there is a municipality with the same COA: File:Escut d'Andratx.svg Best regards! --Xavigivax (talk) 11:26, 23 September 2010 (UTC)

Yes the blazon just says "In field of blue a sun of gold". In Swedish heraldry a sun with a face would be blazoned as "bildad sol". However if it just says "sol" then this can be represented as either having a face or not (both have been used by the municipality[50][51]). As for the 8 straight, 8 wavy I didn't think they were standard in Swedish heraldry but after som browsing I'm now less convinced. Will look it up and then return on the matter. /Lokal_Profil 22:23, 28 September 2010 (UTC)

In all the images that you show me in this links, the rays are alternated straight and wavy. The straight rays are the vertical, horizontal and diagonals, the others ones are wavy. I don't see a reason why in the Swedish heraldry the way to represent a sun is different from the rest of European countries. The first link is not an official site, the second seems to be the municipality official's web, and all the suns have face. May be, you could interest this discussion in French: [52] about "Soleil brûlant". Thank you for your interest. Best regards. --Xavigivax (talk) 06:45, 29 September 2010 (UTC)

The links above were all to official or formerly official represenations, for another official represenattion see the sun in [53], so whether a sun has a face or not is optional (unless the blazon specifies it thorough "bildad sol"). As for the rays I'm still awaiting an answer from the Nordic heraldry forum and if they say 8 straight, 8 wavy is the standard here as well then I'll update this and the other swedish CoAs containing a sun. The reason I'm not yet convinced is that almost all Swedish CoA's I'll find online which contain a sun will have been made by two (or possibly three) artists, thus it's hard to say if it's their preference or a standard. /Lokal_Profil 18:13, 17 October 2010 (UTC)

Ya me contarás la respuesta del foro Nórdico de heráldica. ¡Saludos! --Xavigivax (talk) 20:31, 17 October 2010 (UTC)

Underligheter med enkla schackdiagram

Hej. Jag har en fråga som förmodligen bäst ställs till en lite mer än genomsnittet bevandrad wiki-användare. Känner igen dig som admin även på sv:wp (där jag är mest aktiv) och vänder mig därför till dig. Häromdagen laddade jag upp två grafiska bilder till Commons, vilka i all enkelhet belyser begreppen "rad" respektive "linje" i schackspelets värld. Normalt sett gör sig grafiska presentationer av schackställningar och -bräden bäst och enklast med hjälp av de mallar som finns specifikt för ändamålet; sådana finns som du säkert sett både på svenska, engelska, och andra Wikipedia-sajter. Problemet här var att jag behövde bilderna för att förtydliga dessa schacktermer på svenska Wiktionary. Där kan det i sällsynta fall vara enklare och bättre att använda grafiska element, istället för att behöva tynga den annars oftast sparsmakade ordbokstexten med en ganska lång beskrivning av dessa båda schacktermer, som – åtminstone för icke schackkunniga läsare – annars gärna låter sig förväxlas med varandra. Men på Wiktionary finns inga mallar för schacknotation, så då fick det bli två PNG-bilder istället – och det rör sig som sagt om mycket enkel grafik. Med bilden för rad har inget besynnerligt inträffat, men bilden för linje har lyckats nästla sig in på ett flertal andra wikier/wikisidor, och då på platser den rimligen inte hör hemma. Det här beror förmodligen (?) på att jag valde att döpa filerna till rank.png och file.png, alltså efter de engelska schacktermerna för "rad" respektive "linje". Och "file" betyder ju lite av varje såhär i datorsammanhang… Titta gärna under rubriken "Global filanvändning" på sidan för linje, och då kanske främst de länkar där som rör litauiska respektive ido WP. Filnamnet file.png tycks (bland annat) användas i en del av deras mallar: visst kan jag en del om sådana, men samman med mina bristande kunskaper i litauiska vill jag inte gräva gräva i koden... :-p Och vad gäller ido har jag skrivit väldigt lite i deras Wiktionary, men kan knappast påstå att jag är någon hejare på språket.

Måhända har jag helt missförstått det hela, och kanske finns här inget problem – men jag tycker det ser underligt ut, och ber därför om hjälp, hellre än att låta det eventuella problemet leva kvar, obemärkt. –Tommy Kronkvist (talk), 01:40, 23 November 2010 (UTC).

Hej. Problemet verkar vara felaktigt översatta sidor i MediaWikirymden. Jag har updaterat koden på translatewiki ivlket borde l÷sa problemet (nästa gång det synkas). Samma problem verkade finnas för File:File.jpg. Inget att oroa sig f6r hur som helst. Om filnamnet kan ha många tolkingar så kan det i framitden vara bra att kalla dem nått i stil med "File (chess).png" eller "File in Chess.png" eller nått. Men som sagt ingen skada skedd =) /Lokal_Profil 01:23, 24 November 2010 (UTC)

"Test" list of Vanity Fair caricatures with image thumbnails

Hi, this list will approach completion soon. We need to considering making it official (i...e. a proper name), and also how to decide if/how to split it up to allow faster download. Also - we need to consider if/how to integrate it with the version on EN wiki that people have also been updating. A discussion on how to split it up has started on EN Wiki. My suggestion : move this version to EN Wiki, it is far more complete than the version there. And in future only have a version there, not on Commons. This will allow us to link images from EN wiki - those by authors dead less than 70 years. I'm not sure how we could make the EN version appear on Commons. Or we could just keep this on Commons and somehow make this appear on the EN Wiki - again, I don't know how. But we definitely should only have a single version. Rod. Rcbutcher (talk) 11:14, 15 December 2010 (UTC)

I definitely think it's time to make it more official. I'm all for copying the commons version over to en.wiki.... but still leaving a copy here. Remember that a version on commons is usable by all language versions whereas one on en.wiki isn't. Also yes en.wiki has the benefit that it can include the fair use images, but at the same time this would be a downside since it would make it unusable for projects which don't allow fair use (i.e. lots of other language wikis). I'll take a look at the en.wiki discussion in the coming days. Thanks for the update and all the good work done in filling out the list./ Lokal_Profil (but not signed in) 129.215.149.96

I've moved the list of caricatures to List of Vanity Fair caricatures and split off the list of artists to List of Vanity Fair artists. We need to think about how to speed up download time. Split by year ? Regards, Rod. Rcbutcher (talk) 12:54, 17 December 2010 (UTC)

Sorry for the delayed reply. How about a solution like the one I've implemented on User talk:Lokal Profil/Test? The split would be by year and displayed on separate pages (User:Lokal Profil/Test/p1, User:Lokal Profil/Test/p2) but the code is designed so that you can also show them (and sort them) all on one page (User:Lokal Profil/Test). /Lokal_Profil 12:44, 6 January 2011 (UTC)

Test combines all individual lists p1 p2 etc into the Complete list, yes ? So the list can be accessed quickly by year or as a complete List, while there is still only a single copy of the data. I think this approach is what user en:User:BrownHairedGirl on EN Wiki proposed, you may like to talk to her about it. My only worry is that the mechanism may appear a complete mystery to other less technically sophisticated users who may try to change it in good faith and end up wrecking it or not understand how/where to update it with new images. Rod. Rcbutcher (talk) 15:31, 6 January 2011 (UTC)

Yes that is how it works. And it seems to be similar to what BrownHairedGirl suggested. As for user friendliness the p1 p2 pages are no harder to edit than before so the problem would be if someone tries to edit the all page. This could probably be fixed by adding a comment (either permanently visible or in edit mode only) directing them to the "by year" pages. As for making the p1 p2 pages easier to understand one solution would be to do something similar to [56] where each row in the table becomes a template with clearly labelled parameters. My worry with that is that it would possibly make the page even bigger. /Lokal_Profil 13:00, 8 January 2011 (UTC)

If you are ok with it (seeing that you are the other main contributor) I'll try changing over to the "by year" subpage system I mentioned. As I mentioned on my talk page I don't think it will make editing any harder than it currently is but there might be other things that crop up, such as a possible software limit on how much info can be included through templates. /Lokal_Profil 12:50, 19 January 2011 (UTC)

I thinks it's OK to go ahead with it if you are committed to being around to fixup any mistakes other people might make. I intend to support Wikipedia longterm so I can also monitor it. regards, Rod Rcbutcher (talk) 13:49, 19 January 2011 (UTC)

Looks good & works well. Good work ! We need to consider how to deal with the duplicated list on EN Wiki, to avoid wasting people's time updating it. Maybe simplest is to replace the existing list on EN Wiki with {{Commons|List of Vanity Fair caricatures}} and an explanation that they can find a full list of caricatures by following the Commons link. The list here on Commons includes links on red background for images that exist only on EN Wiki because artist died < 70 years ago - I couldn't find a way to actually show the thumbnail image from EN Wiki file here on Commons, best I could do was a Link, but at least we can point to all images in the Commons list - this makes the EN Wiki list redundant. Rcbutcher (talk) 00:02, 20 January 2011 (UTC)

Thumbnails from en.wiki aren't possible, but that isn't a problem since links should work well. Ideally I'd like to make the red background intelligent so that so that it does "if TODAY < DATE then red background, else green". That way it would be possible to spot when an image becomes PD.

As for the list on en.wiki I'd agree that the image content (at least) should be removed. As for the rest of the list I guess you could argue whether it's still usefull to have separate or not. The obvious downside is that any factual update would have to be duplicated (something I know I haven't had the energy to do when updating the texts in the Commons list). /Lokal_Profil 14:29, 21 January 2011 (UTC)

 Comment I think a subscope "flower" would be appropriate here --Llez (talk) 17:58, 12 April 2011 (UTC)

My thought was that since there are only two pictures in the current scope and they other one is overexposed this would be the, current, best one for the entire species. But can change to flower of Nomocharis pardanthina if still requested. /Lokal_Profil 22:36, 12 April 2011 (UTC)

review

 Comment For full disclosure I should point out that Sempervivum x funckii might be the same species as Sempervivum funckii so those images should be considered too. /Lokal_Profil 16:19, 17 April 2011 (UTC)

•  Comment The legend should not leave any ambiguity. Watch what is the common name that is synonymous. Change the categorization of the image accordingly. The scope for then applied to the flower. --Archaeodontosaurus (talk) 14:07, 21 April 2011 (UTC)
  •  Comment The problem is that the naming (and possibly whether they are the same plant) seems to be unresolved according to [59] and [60]. Until they have resolved the issue the image must be labelled Sempervivum x funckii as this is what the RBGE sign (and database) calls it. The disclosure was related to the fact that this might end up being the same plant as S. funckii/S.funkii so images of these (non of which are photographs of the flower) might be considered as counterarguments. /Lokal_Profil 15:20, 21 April 2011 (UTC)
    •  Comment At closer inspection the situation seems to be the following. The name is either S. × funckii or S. funckii the two seem to be used in a mixed manner [61] uses the "×" but in turn links on to a page without it, both names refer to the same plant though. S. funkii is another entry altogether which might or might not be a synonym to the previous one. As a result I've categorised this image with Sempervivum funckii and added a comment in the descriotion that it is sometimes refered to as simply "Sempervivum funckii". As for the scope either name should work but I could change it to "Sempervivum funckii, flower" if only because that page already exists. /Lokal_Profil 15:40, 21 April 2011 (UTC)

Religion in the United States map error

Hello, the SVG map you made in 2007 for Religion in the United States has a small problem in that you colored West Virginia blue instead of red, as West Virginia has a majority of Baptists, not Catholics. The PNG map is accurate. This is the ARIS report which is the basis for the map. You can see that Catholics make up only 6-7 %

[ARIS Catholic Survey]

Here is their information on Baptists in West Virginia

[ARIS Baptist/Methodist/Lutheran Survey]

Here is the PNG version

Den feedback vi fått säger ungefär att det var en lång startsträcka och nu börjar dom fundera på hur det är med dubletterna. Annars är dom nöjda, har fått se statistik på att bilderna faktiskt används i artiklar och vill plocka fram nya bilder i samband med Wiki Loves Monuments där dom är med som partner till WMSE.

Kan du på något enkelt sätt (bot?) kolla vilka av dubletterna som har fått nånting som är värt att föra över till den riktiga filen och föra över och ta bort dom "fuluppladdade" bilderna eller är det manuellt jobb att göra det? Finns det rutin på från andra uppladdningar? /Haxpett (talk) 17:18, 22 June 2011 (UTC)

Ska ta en titt pa dubletterna. Ska se om det finns nagra botverktyg for att analysera historiken for bildsidorna. I sa fall borde man atminstonne kunna snabfiltrera dubletterna och kansek fa bort en del. Men jag kan tanka mig att det nog anda involverar en hel del manuellt arbete. /Lokal_Profil 13:54, 4 July 2011 (UTC)

Jag och Lennart ska träffa Kajsa Hartig näste vecka. Jag kollar med henne om felrapportering då. Jobbigt om det blir manuellt arbete, men det kanske är så det får bli. Även om det blir blålänkar kommer dom väl att tömmas på kategorier och liknande så att dom inte syns lika lätt och det kommer inte att finnas kvar bilder där inte tillbakalänkarna till NM finns? Tror du att du hinner titta på det innan nästa vecka så vi har nånting att säga till Kajsa då?

När det gäller WLM får du gärna vara med i arbetsgruppen och hjälpa till. Eftersom du verkar ha bra koll på Commons tror jag du kan vara till bra hjälp! /Haxpett (talk) 23:24, 4 July 2011 (UTC)

Ska kolla efter botmojligheter i dagarna, oavsett vad sa ska jag ocksa borja manuellt marka upp/radera dem. Det ar ca. 500 stycken sa i varst a fall sa skulle man kunna se om man kan dela upp arbetet bland nagra volontarer. Det tidskravande ar att overfora eventuell information. Nar detta val ar gjort kan jag skota ersattningar, raderingar och omdirigeringar relativt snabbt. Nar sidorna blir omdirigerar sa blir de i stort sett tomma skal som enbart pekar vidare till den riktiga filsidan sa tillbakalankar etc. finns dar. Fordelen ar, framst, att eventuella externa lankar som pekat pa sidorna fortfarande fungerar.

Hey Lokal do you have any experience with batch uploads? I need some help here http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Batch_uploading/UMich Thanks --James Heilman, MD (talk) 20:04, 1 August 2011 (UTC)

As I see it the main problem won't be the batch upload but rather the scraping of the information. In order for the batch upload to be possible information (for each image) about caption, photographer, license (since some may be cc-by), filename etc. must be available in a structured format. /Lokal_Profil 15:08, 9 August 2011 (UTC)

So this will need to be done manually than? --James Heilman, MD (talk) 23:57, 9 August 2011 (UTC)

The prep work (collecting captions, images and licenses/authors) would have to be done manually before an automated batch upload. Or if you can find someone with good scraping skills then they might be able to automate that part as well. Might be better to ask on the Village Pump to see if anyone steps up. /Lokal_Profil 12:45, 13 August 2011 (UTC)

Jag letar reda på fornlämningen i Fornsök, klickar på Direktlänk uppe till höger och tycker sedan Uppdatera i den ruta som kommer upp. I adressen som då kommer upp i fältet finns ordet "objektid" (bläddra fram ca 80-100 tecken för att hitta det) och jag tar då den 14-siffriga koden efter likamedtecknet. Vet jag ett objekts RAÄ-nummer så går det dock att skriva ihop ObjektID-koden själv. För fornminnen i åtminstone Västergötland börjar man med 10 (jag kommer tyvärr inte ihåg vad 10:an står för) och lägger sedan till sockenkoden som finns i sv:Lista över socknar i Västergötland eller i Riksantikvarieämbetets Förteckning över städer och socknar (1999). Därefter lägger man till objektnumret skrivet med fyra siffror och sist undernumret med fyra siffror. Sammanlagt blir det en sträng på 14 siffror. RAÄ-nr Hornborga 29:1 (Ekornavallen) blir alltså 10+1928+0029+0001, d.v.s. 10192800290001. Nu är jag ju arkeolog och har hållt på och krånglat med dessa koder i 15 år, så för mig funkar det rätt bra, men det är väl synd att kalla metoden enkel. Metoden verkar därtill inte fungera för nyare RAÄ-nummer utan undernummer. / Achird (talk) 11:19, 2 September 2011 (UTC)

Wow. Tack for bade svaret och forklaringen pa varifran siffrorna kommer. Det snabbaste sattet jag funnit att fa fram siffrorna ar genom att hogerklicka pa lanken vid "Visa i Google Earth", valja kopiera lank och sedan ur denna url plocka fram ObjektId-numret. /Lokal_Profil 11:43, 2 September 2011 (UTC)

Kanske läser slarvigt i dokumentationen, men jag funderar över de "Övriga kulturhistoriska lämningarna" Jag placerade mallen på en sådan och det gick ju utmärkt, men är det lämpligt. Borde det markeras på något vis, eller hur göra? Se File:Morkullosbro.JPG. Taxelson (talk) 16:58, 2 September 2011 (UTC)

Jag ser inget fel i att använda mallen Fornminne på allt som finns i registrerat i Fornminnesreigstret/FMIS. Vad mallen främst gör är ju att länka till objektet i FMIS Fornsök och där framgår ju mer exakt vad det handlar om för slags objekt. Vad gäller exemplet: En 200 år gammal dendrodaterad kavelbro kan ju enligt min mening klassas som "Fast fornlämning", men olika arkeologer gör ju olika bedömningar. / Achird (talk) 22:37, 2 September 2011 (UTC)

Tanken ar att allt som finns i Fornsok ska kunna markas upp med {{Fornminne}}. De enda bilder som inte bor markas med BBR eller Fornminne ar t.ex. statyer, K-markta fartyg och liknande som ingar i tavlingen men inte finns med i nagon av de tva databaserna. /Lokal_Profil 11:48, 3 September 2011 (UTC)

Tungor på Umeå kommunvapen

Hej Lokal_Profil! I sv:Umeå kommunvapen står det att blasoneringen för kommunvapnet justerades 1979. I den anges nu specifikt att även renarnas tungor ska vara röda. I din version saknas tungor helt. I andra versioner jag googlat fram, både av kommunvapnet och det äldre stadsvapnet, så finns röda tungor med (dock ej i Ugglan).

Two systems in Sweden?

Hi Lokal Profil, I noticed your edit at {{BBR}}. So apparently Sweden had two systems: {{Fornminne}} and {{BBR}}. Commons:Wiki Loves Monuments 2011/Monuments database still assumes that there is only {{BBR}}. Is it a good idea to expand this to be able to handle both types? Can you explain the difference between the two systems? Multichill (talk) 13:42, 8 October 2011 (UTC)

Sweden used three systems actually. BBR (listed buildings) which are the ones included in the database. Fornminne (sites of archeological interest) which we never had time to make lists out of. It relies on a separate database with 1.7 million entries so we need to make a decision on what to include, the goal is to have this done before WLM2012. And lastly we had an "others" category (statues, listed ships and similar but not based on a list or database) which were temporarily tagged with {{WLM2011-se-ovr}} (since removed and deleted). This last one was included due to early negotiations with our GLAM partners.

Since the Fornminne images aren't in the WLM database I constructed a few tools to verify their IDs and find coordinates etc, essentially constructing a bare bones local database. Did you already have a tool for geotagging images based on their ID? and if so could you possibly point me to it so that I can adapt it for these other images.

As for the categorisation by the templates this ended up being a side effect of the need for a type and county parameter in order to link to the correct page on sv.wiki (see template:BBR/sv). There have been discussions on sv.wiki, here on Commons and by e-mail regarding what should be done. The opinion seems to favour easy categorisation (i.e. not via template) over links to sv.wiki but a decision seems to be postponed until after the competitions (jury wise) is over. However since I spotted your edit on {{Fornminne}} I figured that it seemed like a good start. Since the BBR images contain a mixture of direct "protected buildings in"-categories and by template only categories I've left the default categorisation in whilst I use AWB to add the category directly to the image. Once done I'll remove the default. Don't know if this is something you checked for Fornminne otherwise it's likely to be the same situation there. /Lokal_Profil 14:56, 9 October 2011 (UTC)

Bulls VS oxes

In heraldry there are diferences between an ox and a bull. The bull has the sex drawed and the tail is over the body, instead the ox has not the sex drawed (a ox is a bull without "balls") and the tail is falled. The COA of Oxie (File:Oxie vapen.svg) say I fält av guld en röd oxe, but the image has a bull (tjur). Regards. --Xavigivax (talk) 22:26, 8 January 2012 (UTC)

Coats of arms of swedish municipalities and regions

I wish create, in italian wikipedia, articles on coats of arms of swedish municipalities, like the articles on finnish municipalities, with the blasoning of the coa. Can you insert english blasoning in your coa present in Commons ? Thank you. --Massimop (talk) 21:37, 11 February 2012 (UTC)

Hi. I'm sorry but there are just way to many for me to do that. The problem is that the Swedish CoAs seldom have an existing blazon in English which would mean that I'd have to formulate a new one for each and every one. Apart from the amount of work involved I'm also not sufficiently good at English blazoning to do this. /Lokal_Profil 18:51, 12 February 2012 (UTC)

Regarding File:Samesex marriage in USA.svg

Hey, if I am correct, you were the one who coded the backbone of this map. I was wondering, do you know if there is a way we can overlay numbers onto the map? We have footnotes in the legend and were wondering if it possible to overlay the footnote numbers onto the map? Thanks Thegreyanomaly (talk) 01:16, 19 February 2012 (UTC)

Hi. It wouldn't be hard to add numbers to the map but I'm not sure that's the ideal solution. Apart from anything else it would make updating the map more of a hassle in the future. Wouldn't it be better to use the image annotation tool? /Lokal_Profil 12:37, 21 February 2012 (UTC)

People actually wanted triple striping so they could indicate that laws on the books were not in effect (you can see the talk page for more details), but I told them that wasn't possible. A compromise that I got at least person to support would be to put numeric labels on the states where the footnotes are active. Thegreyanomaly (talk) 00:30, 22 February 2012 (UTC)

What I meant was that using the built in annotation function (i.e. the add note button under the image) would be an easier way of adding a number or text. If there is a reason for why that wouldn't work then just give me the list of states and numbers and I'll make one with the numbers explicitly put in instead. /Lokal_Profil 21:44, 22 February 2012 (UTC)

I'm a bit confused on how to do that. I can't find the annotation button. We need a 1 on Washington and soon Maryland and a 2 on California. Thegreyanomaly (talk) 22:44, 28 February 2012 (UTC)

I figured out the annotation, but it only shows up when you mouse over, I need to something visibly part of the image. Thegreyanomaly (talk) 22:50, 28 February 2012 (UTC)

Ok. I thought we wanted something which was less distracting. Also it has the benefit that you can put the actual text up rather than just the number which links to the footnote. So is it a 1 on Washington (state) and Maryland and a 2 on California that is needed in the end? /Lokal_Profil 13:45, 2 March 2012 (UTC)

Yup, unless SSM is legalized in any other state anytime soon, that is all we need for now. Thanks! Thegreyanomaly (talk) 01:27, 4 March 2012 (UTC)

Charles XIV John and Oscar 1 of Sweden

Hello sorry me for disturbing you, I do research on the shields of Charles XIV John of Sweden and his son Oscar of Sweden

I found two coats, but I have not found the image of Oscar when he was Duke of Södermanland, you know?

Second question, I found it on the net but there is no explanation what Charles XIV John of Sweden was Count of Skåne before being King??

http://www.francegenweb.org/~heraldique/base/details.php?image_id=19798

thank you in advance for your help Good day to you cordially--Dunkerqueenflandre (talk) 15:16, 22 February 2012 (UTC)

Hi. Firstly when it comes to the royal arms there is an excellent book called "Dynastien Bernadottes vapen och det svenska riksvapnet" by Arvid Berghman from 1944[66]. I've only had access to it once but it is filled with the arms including the princely ones (i.e. when they were duke of a province etc.) That book might contain the arms but I cannot guarantee it. As for Charles XIV John being a count of Skåne before becoming king seems unlikely. More likely is that of Charles XV or Gustaf VI Adolf, but once again I'm not sure.

Would it be possible to take a look at the two coats of arms that you've found? Cheers. /Lokal_Profil 22:16, 22 February 2012 (UTC)

Hi, Oscar 1: [67] and [68]

and that before her marriage to Oscar on the crest but is there left to the crest of the Province to a point I fail to see. [69]

Charles XIV John : [70]

Thank you very much for your help good day you cordially--Dunkerqueenflandre (talk) 08:07, 23 February 2012 (UTC)

cordially--Dunkerqueenflandre (talk) 19:07, 24 February 2012 (UTC)

Hi. It might be his arms but it's hard to say. Based on his kingly arms it's quite likely that it is his but there have been plenty of Dukes of Södermanland so there is the possibility that it belonged to one of them. /Lokal_Profil 12:40, 25 February 2012 (UTC)

Thanks again for your help Good day to you cordially--Dunkerqueenflandre (talk) 13:15, 7 March 2012 (UTC)

Svenska landskapsvapen

Hej! Du har skapat många av de vapenskölder som används på wiki, men min fråga rör landskapsvapnen, exempelvis Östergötlands eller Västergötlands. Dessa är ju även historiska hertigdömen, och som sådana skall de även ha en hertigkrona (i vissa fall tror jag även grevlig, eller om det bara gäller vissa landskap i Finland). När det är fråga om länsstyrelser så byts ju den öppna hertigkronan mot en sluten kunglig krona. Skulle du kunna upppdatera de svenska landskapsvapnen så att de även bär en krona? Tackar på förhand, och en stor eloge till dig för att du skapa alla dessa sköldar! Mkallgren 10:43, 22 June 2012 (ECT)

Hej. Glad att vapnen uppskattas. Anledningen till att de inte bär kronor var (om jag inte missminner mig) nån gammal diskussion som sa att detta inte var önskvärt då de ändå alla skulle föra samma krona. Rent mekaniskt så skulle det inte vara några problem att lägga till en hertiglig krona på samtliga landskapsvapen. Problemet är att identifiera de situationer där bilderna används där en krona kanske inte är önskvärd (t.ex. vapen som återanvänds av en annan institution)./Lokal_Profil 16:10, 2 July 2012 (UTC)

Untangle Sweden

Hi Lokal Profil, we should probably try to untangle the two systems in Sweden. Do you have a good overview (in a language I can read) of the two systems? Multichill (talk) 21:29, 25 June 2012 (UTC)

Hi Multichill. For thesis related reasons I've unfortunately been away from wiki for some time with the result that I also haven't had time to finalise the WLM prep work. I don't think there is any existing overview of the two systems but I could put one together for you if you tell me which info you need.

As a quick attempt: There are two systems which will be part of WLM2012 in Sweden. Protected buildings (BBR) and "ancient" monuments (FMIS)

The BBR entries are the ones currently included in the monument-database as "monuments_se_(sv)". On sv.wiki the tables are generated using the template sv:Template:BBR. Here on commons the pictures are tagged with {{BBR}} and end up in Category:Protected buildings in Sweden with known IDs. The FMIS entries are not currently in the monument database since I have yet to construct tables for these. They were however included in WLM last year and as such the pictures are tagged with {{Fornminne}} and all end up in Category:Cultural heritage monuments in Sweden with known IDs.

Last time we talked about it I think the decision was to rename the current "monuments_se_(sv)" as "monuments_se-bbr_(sv)" and then when the FMIS tables are created have these entries in "monuments_se-fmis_(sv)".

As for the progress on the tables I have all of the FMIS data files on my computer and only really have one prep-task to do (removing faulty entries and entries which are already covered by other entries) before considering table generation. The main issue after this is to decide which fields to display in the table and how to split the ~100k entries into tables of manageable sizes. /Lokal_Profil 16:01, 2 July 2012 (UTC)

Thanks, we talked about it, but couldn't find the details. Let's start with Commons and worry about the local lists later. We now have Category:Protected buildings in Sweden with known IDs. That should be replaced by two categories. One for images tagged with {{BBR}} and one for the images tagged with {{Fornminne}}. The difficult question is: How to name these categories? Can you answer this?

Once that is decided on I'll change it and fix the database.

What kind of FMIS data fields do you have? For other countries I kept notes on User:Multichill/Monuments notes. It's sometimes difficult to make choices here. Multichill (talk) 21:07, 2 July 2012 (UTC)

Something else. Is any of you guys going to http://oppnakulturarvet.se/evenemangsinfo/oppnakulturarvet/ ? Might be of interest to you. Multichill (talk) 21:08, 2 July 2012 (UTC)

Currently we have Category:Cultural heritage monuments in Sweden with known IDs and Category:Protected buildings in Sweden with known IDs which is a subcategory of the previous one. I think the best thing to do would probably be to create the category Category:Archaeological monuments in Sweden with known IDs‎ and make this a second subcategory of Cultural heritage monuments in.... If {{Fornminne}} is then pointed to the new category then the situation becomes similar to that of Category:Cultural heritage monuments in Denmark with known IDs. Additionally Category:Archaeological monuments in Sweden should be created and be made a subcategory of Category:Archaeological sites in Sweden and Category:Cultural heritage monuments in Sweden. IF this seems ok then I'll go ahead with it.

The FMIS fields I have are

I'm sorry for not answering the mail you sent me some months ago, Lokal Profil. In my opinion we have to keep LANDSKAP and SOCKEN (eftersom all äldre indelning av fornminnen och fornfynd följer mönstret med Socken — Härad — Landskap, för att under 1970-talet övergå i Församling/socken — Kommun — Län, och efter kyrkans skiljande från staten 2000 så har det blivit rena sammelsuriet). ANTAL is one I also want to keep, because it is telling how many graves or other objects that are included in a fornminne. There are some others marked with question marks above, but those are not nessecary to keep. BYRAMBESL is "byråmässigt beslutad" (i.e. the status of the monument is decided by someone at an office). OSAK_POS is "Osäker position" (i.e. "uncertain position"), and OSAK_UTBR is "Osäker utbredning" (i.e. "uncertain extension"). MEDFELFALT is "Medelfel, fältfångst" (i.e. the general error of the method used to measure the coordinates). / Achird (talk) 18:46, 3 July 2012 (UTC)

Det hade varit praktiskt om det hade varit enkelt att länka till "grupper" av poster. I RAA-numren ser jag ett system där de benämns som "X Y:Z" där alla som börjar med "X Y" har ngt gemensamt, (ung samma typ av objekt på ung samma plats). -- Lavallen 15:24, 3 July 2012 (UTC)

Have now extended the table above with the missing descriptors (thanks Achird). Also marked parish (socken) as a keeper. As for province (landskap) doesn't municipality+parish uniquely define which province we are talking about? Anyhow this could still be kept, not all fields need be made visible in the table.

As for Antal I see why that would be useful. My only issue is that I don't think it is easily interpreted. I.e. several entries have Antal=0. Also for the case where an entry contains several subentries (i.e. containing SAMSATT_ID above) the Antal for the main entry does not equal the sum of the Antal for the subentries, although it seems (from a brief skim) as though Antal for the main entry is the same as Antal for any of the subentries. To make the whole subentry discussion more concrete the Torekov 94 entry includes Torekov 41:3, Torekov 41:2, Torekov 41:1 and Torekov 94(4). Although "Antal" is given as 1 for all of these (except for Torekov 94(4) for which Antal=2) in my file Antal=10 for all of them.

I guess one possiblity is keeping track of Antal as well as number of subentries (and possibly their OBJEKT_ID/RAA_NUMMER). Due to how the selection was made (fast fornlämning with one of the following lämningstyp) the subentry count may be incomplete though.

As for the question of grouping (as per Lavallen's question above). Depending on how we split the tables we could always sort them by RAA_NUMMER if this is what you mean.

As per the last count there are 152,758 unique objects. Meaning I've excluded 1,931 duplicate entries (multiple geometry entries for the same object) and 68,535 subobjects. Per a previous discussion I still have to filter out any destroyed/removed objects that might be included. /Lokal_Profil 14:27, 4 July 2012 (UTC)

A quick count reveals there are only 65 objects tagged as status={Övertäckt,förstörd,flyttad} (SKADESTAT or UNDSOKSTAT), an additional 73 objects are tagged as läge={flyttad,Ej återfunnen}. In my opinion 152,758 objects is slightly to many. If anyone wants to take a peak at the file then send me an e-mail and I'll give you access (Google Drive). /Lokal_Profil 15:08, 4 July 2012 (UTC)

Here follows the breakdown per type and county. This is probably not the best place to hold a discussion on how to break it down into pages so if anyone suggests a different place then I'll move it. /Lokal_Profil 17:13, 4 July 2012 (UTC)

Anledningen till att jag starkt förespråkar användandet av "Landskap" är att detta är ett begrepp som härrör från senare delen av järnåldern, medan "Län" är något modernt som uppstod 1634. Fördelningen av forntida fornlämningar är därför tydligt knuten till just landskapen där de större anhopningarna bildar landskapens gamla centralbygder. Detta gör att "Landskap" är den mest naturliga indelningen av just fornminnen. Mer moderna begrepp, som "Län" och "Kommun", är bra för nutida administration, men säger inget om forntidens indelning i olika bygder. Det är alltså oftast mer intressant att ange i vilket landskap en fornlämning ligger än i vilket län den ligger. / Achird (talk) 21:27, 4 July 2012 (UTC)

Ok. I'll mark that as a keeper as well =) /Lokal_Profil 10:30, 5 July 2012 (UTC)

Have sorted out the categories but we still need a decision on how to split the lists. I guess a second alternative would be to split by municipality. This would create loads of lists but at least they will be of manageable size. /Lokal_Profil 11:38, 30 July 2012 (UTC)

Category and municipality is probably a good idea, that would make 48*290=13920 lists (and then removing all the empty maybe cuts it down a bit). Do you know if the huge categories are evenly split over the municipalities or would there still be lists that are too big to handle?— Preceding unsigned comment added by Axel Pettersson (WMSE) (talk • contribs) 16:56, August 7, 2012 (UTC)

Har du ngn uppfattning om hur stor andel av fornminnena som inte är bekräftade (tex finns det två påstådda men icke-existerande fornborgar här uppe), eller där platsen är osäker? (En hel by strax norr om där jag bor är försvunnen tex.) -- Lavallen 16:18, 31 July 2012 (UTC)

Det är visserligen inte mig Lavallen ställer frågan till, men jag försöker ändå ge ett svar. Om jag på FMIS Fornsök ställer in sökning på Antikvarisk bedömning: "Fast fornlämning" och Läge: "Uppgift om" så får jag bara 65 träffar i hela Sverige. Fast fornlämning + Läge: "Ej återfunnen" ger 159 träffar. Fast fornlämning + Läge: "Fyndplats" ger 32 träffar. Det är alltså rätt få lämningar som filtreras bort genom att använda dessa parametrar i fältet Läge. / Achird (talk) 18:58, 7 August 2012 (UTC)

Jag vet inte hur du gjorde sökningen, men jag har varit ute på ett antal utflykter i jakt på dessa prickar, och sådant som "uppgift om" och andra osäkerhetstecken är mycket vanliga. Så sent som idag em var jag på en plats där det fanns ett antal "högar" och annat mitt i stadsbebyggelse. Jag återfann flertalet, men det fanns flera andra som var överbyggda/bortgrävda, där läget var osäkert, eller bedömningen tveksam. En plats som besiktningsmannen kallade "Hög?" och som beskrevs som 5x10 meter lyckades inte jag återfinna, trots att den skulle finnas på ett område som klipps med gräsklippare regelbundet, men jag är inget proffs (än). Begrepp som "borttagen" hade jag också ngt fall av. En punkt vi aldrig åkte till, just därför, var ett "stulet" vägmärke. För ett par veckor sedan besökte vi en "fornborg" på en plats som RAÄ bedömer som "olämplig" för en sådan borg, och inget har hittats, inte heller jag. I andra fall har fynden bedömts som "geologiska" och inte ett "kulturminne". ("Rullstensås" och inte en "skans" tex.)-- Lavallen 19:28, 8 August 2012 (UTC)

Ja, det gäller att sortera bort alla borttagna, förstörda och osäkra lämningar. Tyvärr så är det många fasta fornlämningar som är svåra att hitta även för yrkesverksamma arkeologer. När jag inventerade fornlämningar i ett visst område så parkerade jag alltid bilen på samma ställe, men det var först femte gången som jag plötsligt upptäckte att jag hade en rund, övertorvad stensättning, 13 m i diameter, med mittblock, mittstensättning och kantvall rakt framför bilen. Problemet var att den var beväxt med sly och helhetsintrycket stördes av en grusväg och en stenmur. När jag vid ett tillfälle visade den för andra yrkesverksamma arkeologer så stod dessa och tittade i kanske fem minuter innan alla såg hela stensättningen. Att få bra foton av en sådan fornlämning är tyvärr väldigt svårt. Min bedömning är för övrigt att det endast är hälften av alla existerande fornlämningar som är upptäckta och registrerade. / Achird (talk) 08:28, 9 August 2012 (UTC)

Since most of the comments are in Swedish I'll reply in like. If anyone would like an English translation then give me a shout

Ursakta det (ytterligare) drojesmalet. Det verkar som att en uppdelning pa kommunniva ar den som foredras. Jag ar daremot osaker pa om uppdelning pa bade kategori och kommun ar det basta, 13.000 listor kanns som valdigt manga sidor. Jag tror att de flesta kommuner nog klarar sig med en sida med nagra undantag (t.ex. Gotland) som kraver ytterligare uppdelning. Ska forsoka plocka fram lite statistik for fordelningen av objekt per kommun.

Achird har gett mig nagra fler lamningstyper som mojligen kan sorteras bort (da dessa ar svara att kanna igen). Detta ror sig dock "enbart" om ca. 3000-7000 objekt. Utover dessa sa finns det ~150 objekt som ar markta som forsvunna/forstorda (se ovan) som jag ocksa sorterar bort. Ytterligare kommentarer/askiter art valkommna.

sv:mall:FMIS ar nu ihopsatt som grundmall for listorna. Hoppas kunna satta ihop Lunds kommun som ett exempel pa hur en sadan lista kan se ut. Eftersom "namn" tyvarr oftsast inte anges i de datafalt vi har tillgang till (namnlista finns inte med i exporten) sa kommer detta falt troligen framst basta av raa-nr. Jag ska dock forsoka gora en sokning pa sv.wiki sa att artiklar som troligen handlar om objektet (baserat pa lankar till fmis) finns med som en kommenterad parameter i namnfaltet. Dessa maste dock kollas av for hand. /Lokal_Profil 11:48, 9 August 2012 (UTC)

Har nu kollat på fördelningen per kommun. Alla kommuner har åtminstone ett objekt. Ungefär hälften har 200 eller färre objekt. Ca. 40 har fler än 1000 objekt och utav dessa har 11 fler än 3000 objekt (med Gotland i topp på 9000 objekt, nästan dubbelt så många som andraplatsen Uppsala). Som jag ser det så har vi ett antal alternativ:

1. En primär uppdelning per kommun med en typuppdelning för de listor med fler än X objekt.
2. En primär uppdelning per typ (och län) med en kommunuppdelning för de listor med fler än X objekt.
3. En uppdelning på både kommun och typ för alla kommuner och alla typer.
4. Uppdelning per kommun med ett antal stora listor (Gotland bör nog ändå delas) Se t.ex. da:Fredede fortidsminder i Danmark
5. ...

/Lokal_Profil 09:20, 10 August 2012 (UTC)

Jag skulle föredra att uppdelningen är uteslutande geografisk i kommuner (kanske sorterade både länsvis och alfabetiskt där man väljer kommun) och att man delar upp de mest fornlämningsrika kommunerna i mindre geografiska delar. Jag tänker mig nämligen att de flesta fotograferna håller sig inom några få kommuner eller några få län. Delar man däremot upp i typer så lär det mest gynna de mer populära fornlämningstyperna, medan något svårare fornlämningstyper missgynnas. / Achird (talk) 10:30, 10 August 2012 (UTC)

Jag håller med Archird här att en enbart geografisk uppdelning är önskvärd. Den största invändningen jag kan komma på är en praktikalitet, hur pallar Wikimedias servrar att rendera en sida med 1000-talet mallar? Ainali (talk) 10:50, 11 August 2012 (UTC)

Det tekniska hänger inte bara på antalet mallar, utan kanske mer på mängden innehåll i mallarna. -- Lavallen 17:55, 11 August 2012 (UTC)

Jag har nu kikat på lämpliga sätt att geografiskt dela upp Gotlands kommun och Uppsala kommun. Gotlands kommun är enkel att dela i Gotlands norra härad och Gotlands södra härad. Vill man dela in i mindre enheter så finns andra ännu äldre indelningar att falla tillbaka på. Gotland har nämligen på medeltiden delats in i tre tredingar (Nordertredingen, Medeltredingen och Sudertredingen) och sex settingar. Det är alltså inga problem att dela in Gotland i två, tre eller sex delar efter gamla system. Att dela upp Gotlands kommun i de 14 storkommuner det bestod av 1952-1970 verkar däremot bli plottrigt.

När det gäller Uppsala kommun så hittade jag ett sätt att dela kommunen i tre fornlämningsmässigt hyfsat jämnstora delar. Den östra tredjedelen skulle då innehålla socknarna Almunge, Bladåker, Faringe, Funbo, Knutby, Rasbo, Rasbokil, Stavby och Tuna, vilket blir 3591 fasta fornlämningar (enligt FMIS Fornsök). Den södra tredjedelen skulle då innehålla socknarna Balingsta, Börje, Dalby, Danmark, Hagby, Läby, Ramsta, Uppsala, Uppsala-Näs, Vaksala, Vänge och Västeråker, vilket blir 3923 fasta fornlämningar. Den nordvästra tredjedelen skulle då innehålla Björklinge, Bälinge, Jumkil, Järlåsa, Lena, Skogs-Tibble, Skuttunge, Tensta, Viksta, Åkerby, Åland och Ärentuna, vilket blir 3252 fasta fornlämingar. / Achird (talk) 15:14, 12 August 2012 (UTC)

Att dela Gotland i norra och södra låter som en idé som är lätt att förstå. Uppdelningen i Uppsala känns dock inte lika intuitiv. Finns det något annat sätt att dela upp Uppsala på ett sätt som vanligt folk lätt kan förstå? Ainali (talk) 20:57, 12 August 2012 (UTC)

Leksands kommun har också väldigt många poster, var går den praktiska gränsen? Borde man lägga sig på socken-nivå istället? -- Lavallen 16:33, 14 August 2012 (UTC)

Ok. Sa uppdelning per kommun med mer finfordelad (geografisk) indelning for de med fler an X objekt.

Sa vad vi behover bestamma ar vardet pa X (dvs. max antal objekt per sida) samt uppdelningsniva efter detta. Aven for de kommuner som har farre an X objekt sa ar det nog bra att dela upp listan ytterligare for att forenkla navigeringen av tabellerna. Om denna uppdelningen ar den samma som undersidorna for de stora kommunerna sa kanns nog uppdelningen aven mer naturlig. Om man inkluderar sv:mall:GeoLänk pa kategorisidorna (och/eller artikelsidorna) sa borde det ga latt att hitta fler objekt aven om de faller utanfor den aktuella kommunen/uppdelningen.

Jag har for mig att den tekninska begransningen ar att max 1mb kan inkluderas genom mallar. En rad med FMIS mall ar ungefar 0.5kb sa fran en rent tekninsk sida borde ~1500 objekt kunna inkluderas. Sedan ar fragan hur manga objekt som ar for manga for en redigerare/lasare av en lista/sida.

Harad/sockenuppdelning forefaller mig som den mest naturliga da detta (socken) aven ar registrerat i fornminnesposten. I de fall dar sockengranser inte foljer kommungranser borde det ga att lagga till en lank till listan med objekt pa andra sidan gransen. Daremot sa ar det som namnt inte langre valkanda begrepp for de flesta anvandare. GeoLänk samt (klickbara?) sockenkartor, dar dessa finns, borde till en viss del kunna losa detta. Att enbart dela upp Gotland i tva delar loser inte heller problemet (minst 4000 poster i en av listorna). Kan lagga objekt per kommun listan pa en undersida sa att vi ser vilka kommuner de ror sig om. /Lokal_Profil 17:02, 14 August 2012 (UTC)

Häradsbegreppet täcker inte hela Sverige, så det har sina brister. Tack vare Yger så är sockenbegreppet väl etablerat på svwp i vilket fall. -- Lavallen 20:44, 14 August 2012 (UTC)

Skulle vi göra sidor för varje socken så blir det verkligen olika mycket på sidorna. Exempelvis har Larvs socken i Västergötland 401 fasta fornlämningar medan grannsocknen Trävattna har bara 20 fasta fornlämningar (enligt FMIS Fornsök). Tittar vi istället på Västerås och grannsocknen Dingtuna i Västmanland så har de 1807 respektive 1021 fasta fornlämningar. För att inte tala om Jokkmokk som har 4098 fasta fornlämningar, men då har tydligen Jokkmokks kommun och Jokkmokks "socken" samma utbredning. / Achird (talk) 22:51, 14 August 2012 (UTC)

En tanke: alla administrativa indelningar har ändrats, kommer att ändras, är inte heltäckande eller allmänt kända. Användande av halvgamla indelningar ger intryck av att fornlämningarna är knutna till den territoriella organisationen. Vissa delar av vad som idag är land låg tidigare under vatten. Under senare delen av 1900-talet, och delvis fortfarande, användes ekonomiska kartans rutnät som indelning vid insamling av data. Kunde man inte använda ett liknande koordinatindelningssystem så att t. ex. man använder lat. long. systemet med rutor om en eller fem latitudminuter gånger en eller fem longitudminuter? Ett annat alternativ är att följa LMV:s indexsystem.[71] Edaen (talk) 07:36, 15 August 2012 (UTC)

(Kunde inte följa den länken.) Fornminnena är knutna till den territoriella organisationen. Länsstyrelserna har tillsyn över dem. -- Lavallen 08:43, 15 August 2012 (UTC)

Länken igen[72]. Fornminnena redovisas på koordinater i tre system, landskap, län, kommun samt socknar ca 1950. De redovisas även i ekonomiska kartans rutnät. Se t. ex denna som anges ligga inom kartbladet 11E6e SÖ (RT90)[73]. Länk till kartbladet.[74] Edaen (talk) 09:22, 15 August 2012 (UTC)

Problemet är att även kartblad saknas från den data vi har. Den datan ingar inte heller i den inormation som fmis delar med sig av till k-samsok (posten ovan i k-samsok). Dessutom sa ar kartblad om nagot annu ett annu mindre valkant begrepp an socknar. Min tanke med att bryta upp listorna per socken (dvs. bade bryta upp tabellerna for mindre kommuner samt sidorna for storre) ar att det ger flexibilitet vad galler undersidor. Om en kommun som behover delas upp innehaller nagra storre socknar samt t.ex. tva socknar med enbart enstaka objekt sa kan en dessa inkluderas pa kommunlistan med wikilankar till de storre socknarna.

Mycket riktigt sa kan uppdelningen per socken anda mojligen resultera i stora listor (Jokkmokk inehaller enbart en socken men aven enbart 236 objekt) men forhoppningsvis blir det hela mer hanterbart. Listan över objekt per kommun finns nu på User:Lokal Profil/WLM2012. /Lokal_Profil 17:25, 15 August 2012 (UTC)

Det första tabellexemplet finns nu på sv:Användare:Lokal Profil/Lista över fornminnen i Lunds kommun. Detta är exportformatet i dagsläget. Om man går in i redigeringsläge så ser man att det finns utkommenderade förslag på passande artiklar baserat på vilka artiklar (inte listor) som externlänkar till det fornminnet. Listan är 128 objekt stor och inte uppdelad per typsocken. Jag märkte nu även att jag inte hunnit rensat ut de typer som diskuterades med Achird. /Lokal_Profil 03:05, 16 August 2012 (UTC)

Sockenlänkningen sker genom att lägga "s socken" till den existerande parametern. Jag har förbättra denna gissning genom att inte lägga till s:et om sockennamnet slutar på "a" eller "y". En bättre/utökad algoritm för att få rätt på när s:et bör vara där välkomnas. /Lokal_Profil 03:20, 16 August 2012 (UTC)

Jag hade nog försökt se hur sv:mall:Sn-RAÄ används i olika artiklar. Det borde ge en tydlig koppling mellan sockenkoderna och Wikipedias artiklar. (Det finns ju åtminstone 3 stycken 'Eds socken' tex, men bara en artikel med sockenkod XXXX.) -- Lavallen 06:21, 16 August 2012 (UTC)

Förtydligar lite till: I sv:Användare:Innocent bot/Countys har jag kopplat samman varje "Fips county code" med en artikel på svwp. Det gör att det inte finns några tveksamheter om vilken artikel som motsvarar vilken kod, och det hjälper mig i robotarbetet. Tex så kallar RAÄ grannsocknen här för "Kramfors", men det finns ingen artikel på Wikipedia med namnet "Kramfors socken", (Det finns en omdirigering, och den leder fel) och det skulle bryta mot principen om minsta möjliga förvåning att skriva Kramfors i listan. Dock finns det en artikel som heter "Gudmundrå socken" (Det är Gudmundrå som avses), och som har sockenkod "2475" enl Sn-RAÄ-mallen i den artikeln. -- Lavallen 07:38, 16 August 2012 (UTC)

Sockennamnet ska inte få något s när det slutar på vokal. Det heter t.ex. Levene socken, Gingri socken, Ockelbo socken, Piteå socken och Laxsjö socken. / Achird (talk) 12:22, 16 August 2012 (UTC)

Sockennamnen som vi har fatt kommer tyvarr inte med ATA nr/sockenkod och det ar darmed svart att automatiskt ta sig forbi sarskiljningsledet (delvis darfor som jag anger Landskap direkt efter). Jag skulle kunna ga via k-samsok och hamta sockenkoden dar men det skulle krava ett anrop per objekt. Utan en lista i stil med den Lavallen namner (men for socknar) sa ar inte detta till speciellt stor nytta da vi anda inte kan koppla dessa till den exakta artikeln.

Tack Achird. Grammatik var aldrig min starkaste sida och mina ar utomlands har inte forbattrat dem.

Jag har aven en fundering pa hurvida huvudnamnrymden ar den ratta platsen for dessa listor. Till skillnad fran bbr listorna ar de ju inte kompletta, har handlar det istallet om ett urval med WLM som POV.

Vi behover fortfarande ett beslut om max antal objekt per sida samt den slutliga geografiska updelningen. /Lokal_Profil 20:29, 16 August 2012 (UTC)

Min erfarenhet säger mig att sidor med tabeller med 2000 rader når en övre gräns för vad som är hanterbart med de sämre datorer jag har använt. Större tabeller renderas dåligt av webläsarna. Med marginal dit så är kanske 1000 rader en god gräns. --- Lavallen 06:59, 18 August 2012 (UTC)

sv:Användardiskussion:Lokal Profil/Lista över fornminnen i Lunds kommun inehaller nu en lista dar tabellen ar updelad efter socken samt sorterade efter raa-nr. /Lokal_Profil 02:21, 17 August 2012 (UTC)

Om detta är den uppdelning vi bestämmer oss för är det nog vettigare att länka socknen från underrubriken snarare än tabellen (och därmed kanske även dölja det fältet?) /Lokal_Profil 02:22, 17 August 2012 (UTC)

I Ygers indelning kommer många av de objekten att ligga i Lunds stad, andra i Sankt Peters Klosters socken. Edaen (talk) 05:14, 17 August 2012 (UTC)

brytplats för enklare redigering

Det är nog en miss i min uppdelning. Lunds socken borde troligen säga Lunds stad (det är ATA 1298 det handlar om). Men jo den automatiserade sockenuppdelningen kommer troligen leda till liknande missar.

1000 poster per sida låter vettigt. Det rör sig då om ca 40 kommuner som får undersidor. Jag skulle fortfarande rekommendera en tabelldelning per socken för de andra kommunerna (i stil med här) for att gora dem enklare att redigera. är det i så fall vettigt att dölja "historisk indelning"sfältet i FMIS-mallen (i likhet med hur kommunfältet är dolt)?

är det något annat som bor fixas med FMISmallen? Enklare gjort nu än när alla sidorna väl är skapade.

Lunds kommun är nog tyvärr ett rätt bra exempel på hur få av posterna som har namn (enbart 1 av 128 poster). Genom att manuellt kolla de inkommenderade artiklarna (se t.ex. [75]) kan vissa förhoppningsvis utökas med både artiklar och namn. Dock är detta (i likhet med det manuella arbetet för BBR-listorna) något som troligen inte kommer att vara fixat i tid för tävlingsstarten.

Namnrymdsfrågan måste även den lösas. Jag är inte helt insatt i hur detta fungerar på sv.wiki så jag lämnar gärna över det beslutet till nån annan. /Lokal_Profil 11:52, 20 August 2012 (UTC)

Har hittat ytterligare en kalla som skulle kunna anvandas till att fylla i "namn"-parametern. Tror dock inte att det gar att skorda alla 150.000 namnen innan tavlingen borjar. Men ska se vad jag kan gora. Ifall jag far denna information senare borde den alltid kunna laggas till i tabellerna automatiskt. Pa samma satt borde jag kunna fa tag i ATAnr for socknarna sa att den lankningen kan forbattras nar val ATA-artikel matchningen ar fixad (se nedan). /Lokal_Profil 13:04, 24 August 2012 (UTC)

Sannolikt är det de intressantaste objekten som har namn. Vad gäller arbetet med uppladdningar vore lite tips på lämpliga kategorinamn bra att ha. Vad som är lämpliga översättningar av "hög", "Stensättningar", med mycket mera är ngt som brytt mitt huvud. För minnesstenar har jag hittat: "Monuments and memorials in Västernorrland County" som ett gott kategorinamn tex. "Milestones in Sweden" och "Local Heritage Centres in Sweden" är andra. Finns det ett eget kategoriträd för icke-kyrkliga byggnadsminnen? -- Lavallen 14:16, 24 August 2012 (UTC)

Tror att de enda tidigareexisterande kategorierna för byggnadsminnen är geografiska. Att klura ut bra kategorinamn för fornminnena skulle också vara bra, speciellt om man kunde hitta en mappning mellan fmis typer (de som ingår i wlm finns här) och commonskategorier. /Lokal_Profil 17:15, 25 August 2012 (UTC)

"De som ingår i wlm finns här", hur ska jag tolka det? Ingår övriga inte i wlm, eller ingår de inte i listorna? - Lavallen 10:30, 26 August 2012 (UTC)

De typer som inte finns med på den listan kommer inte ingå i tabellerna som genereras. Huruvida de ändå kommer att ingå i wlm vet jag inte. Achird som är den mest insatta i fornminneskategorier här på COmmons pillar förresten med listan på User:Achird/Sand box. /Lokal_Profil 10:55, 26 August 2012 (UTC)

Pillandet med listan har jag nu flyttat till User:Achird/Lämningstyper WLM 2012. Jag har även ändrat kategoriträdet något och skapat några nya kategorier. Category:Stone circles in Sweden har använts för alla stenkretsar, medan underkategorierna Category:Judge circles in Sweden använts för domarringar och Category:Stone ships in Sweden använts för skeppssättningar. Vidare har Category:Tumuli in Sweden blivit föräldrakategori till Category:Burial mounds in Sweden (gravhögar), Category:Burial cairns in Sweden (gravrösen) och Category:Flat burial cairns in Sweden (stensättningar). / Achird (talk) 22:58, 26 August 2012 (UTC)

Appro på det så skulle det även vara bra att identifiera sv.wiki artiklar (eller avsaknaden av en sådan) för de olika typerna. Och appropå namnen så lyckades jag klura ut ett sätt att utöka mängden namn som nu finns med i tablellerna. /Lokal_Profil 17:25, 25 August 2012 (UTC)

Hi guys, I think I have untangled everything. Everything is separate now. You can add the lists of fornminne to Wikipedia now and it should work right away. Any update on that? Please ping me if you change any names of parameters. Multichill (talk) 15:11, 25 August 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for sorting it out. Since the discussion started we've also added wlm-se-ship (listed ships) to the competition. These don't have lists (also unsure about unique persistent id's) and thus shouldn't have a database. I'm generating the wlm-se-forn lists as we speak so they should be on wiki start of next week. There is still a discussion about whether they should end up in the main namespace or the Wikipedia namespace though (don't know if the list harvester is sensitive to this). If you have noted down the final mappings (list template to database) then I can give it a once over, but I think the parameternames at sv:mall:FMIS have been stable for a while. /Lokal_Profil 17:15, 25 August 2012 (UTC)

This list harvester is setup to harvest main namespace. Why would you want to put it in Wikipedia namespace? What are the arguments for that? Multichill (talk) 17:41, 25 August 2012 (UTC)

The issue is that it's only a subset of the main database where the choice of what is/isn't included might be deemed to be NPOV. The geographic divisions used by the original database are possibly debatable as well. I don't know how this discussion is running though might be that main space is the choice in the end. Would it be a simple flick of a switch to change the harvester (for wlm-se-forn only) to a different namespace or would this make us the odd one out (in which case it's a valid argument for putting the lists in main namespace to start with). /Lokal_Profil 18:19, 25 August 2012 (UTC)

Hjälp med problematiska bilder

Hej Lokal Profil! Jag har kollat igenom de bilder jag laddat upp sen 2006 här på commons och jag skulle behöva lite hjälp att rätta till vissa fel med dessa. Eftersom processen deletions requests är oerhört seg och överbelastad frågar jag därför dig här direkt. I File:The entrence to the royal tennishall in Stockholm, Sweden.JPG syns registreringsplåtar vilket är problematiskt då det kan anses vara personuppgifter. Eftersom den bilden inte används hursomhelst ber jag dig att radera den.

För det andra ber jag dig ta en titt på denna raderingsdiskussion där jag nyligen ändrat min ståndpunkt i diskussionen.

Jag vore oerhört tacksam för att få dessa frågetecken uppklarade. Tack på förhand! Med vänlig hälsning Tooga (talk) 16:46, 15 July 2012 (UTC)

Hej. Ber om ursäkt för dröjesmålet. Om frågan fortfarande är aktuell så ska jag försöka ta mig en titt på det när jag återkommer till reguljär internettillgång mot slutet av nästa vecka./ Lokal_Profil 11:53, 30 July 2012 (UTC)

Om registreringsplåtar tolkas som personuppgifter och därmed ska raderas borde väl alla bilder på identiferbara personer raderas? Ainali (talk) 15:50, 30 July 2012 (UTC)

Jag brukar bearbeta mina bilder i Photoshop och göra registreringsplåtar på bilar och ansikten på personer, vars identitet inte är relevant för bilden, oskarpa. Vad jag förstår är det dock inget måste att dölja identiteten på personer och bilar, som är fotograferade på allmän plats i Sverige och som inte utgör huvudmotivet. /Achird (talk) 09:23, 1 August 2012 (UTC)

Ingen fara! Jag är bara glad att någon är villig att ta sig tid att kolla igenom detta! Tack igen! Tooga (talk) 13:26, 3 August 2012 (UTC)

Hej igen! Har du möjligtvis hunnit ta en titt på bilderna ifråga? Med vänlig hälsning Tooga (talk) 19:12, 4 September 2012 (UTC)

Hej. Sorry, Wiki Loves Monuments samt icke-wiki saker gjorde att jag helt glömde detta. Jag skulle inte oroa mig över registreringsplåtarna men om du är orolig skulle jag rekommendera att du laddar upp en ny version med oskarpa plåtar. Om du gör detta med samma filnamn så kan jag radera den tidigare versionen med skarpa plåtar. Annars kan jag radera bilden rakt av eftersom den inte används och det är du som uppladdare som ber mig. Ska hålla ögonen på denna sida så att det inte tar mig en månad att svara denna gången. /Lokal_Profil 22:58, 6 September 2012 (UTC)

Hej, nu är det jag som ska be om ursäkt för sent svar, sorry! Ja, jag skulle uppskatta om du raderade den bilden på kungliga tennishallen pga ovanstående skäl, i.e. registreringsplåtarna, samt att bilden inte används och en bättre bild finns att tillgå. Med vänlig hälsning Tooga (talk) 11:36, 14 September 2012 (UTC)

ATA ur artiklar

Bryter ut till en egen rubrik för att inte röra till det ovan.

Detta borde ge den info du behöver för att koppla samman wp-artiklar med ATA-koderna: http://sv.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&format=xml&eulimit=5000&list=exturlusage&euquery=www.fmis.raa.se/cocoon/fornsok/search.html?parish= (Kräver inloggning med admin eller botkonto för att få hela listan.)

Listan ser inte komplett ut, det ska finnas över 3000 socknar om jag minns rätt. Här är de drygt 2000.

De fyrsiffriga ATA-koderna ser ut att vara en del av objekt-id-numren i fmis, åtminstone så långt jag sett. Nävelsjö socken har ATA-kod 0647, och RAÄ-nr Nävelsjö 3:1 har objekt-id 10064700030001. Databasguruna på K-samsök borde kunna bekräfta om detta är annat än ett sammanträffande. -- Lavallen 06:45, 17 August 2012 (UTC)

Länkarna till historiska.se kanske ger ngt mer:

http://sv.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&format=xml&eulimit=5000&list=exturlusage&euquery=http://mis.historiska.se/mis/sok/socken.asp?snkod=

Men kanske inte. Det är ungefär samma antal. -- Lavallen 07:13, 17 August 2012 (UTC)

Jag la in de fornminnena som enligt listan hör till Lunds socken på en karta över Lunds stad (grått), Lunds socken (rött), Sankt Peters klosters socken (gult) och Knästorps socken (brunt). ATA-socknarna stämmer inte med sockenindelningen på svwp. Edaen (talk) 06:02, 17 August 2012 (UTC)

Intressant, enstaka punkter nära gränsen som ligger lite fel, har jag sett, och det ser jag inte som ett stort problem. Är detta ett fenomen som är begränsat till "stads-kommuner", eller är det ett mer generellt problem än så? -- Lavallen 12:37, 17 August 2012 (UTC)

Vad gäller Lund införlivades delar av Lunds socken 1913 och SPK 1914, det mesta av det som återstod av Lunds socken införlivades med staden 1944. Sockenartiklarna på svwp skulle väl visa bilden ca 1862. ATA-socknarna motsvarar nog Sveriges kommunindelning vid mitten av 1900-talet, i det här fallet Lunds stadskommun. Edaen (talk) 12:48, 17 August 2012 (UTC)

Ok, ATA stämmer då bättre med landskommunerna än med socknarna med andra ord. Det förklarar valet av Kramfors som namn istället för Gudmundrå. -- Lavallen 12:58, 17 August 2012 (UTC)

Ja, det stämmer. Objektnumren består av 10 + Socken-kod (4 siffror) + RAÄ-nr (4 siffror) + Undernr (4 siffror). RAÄ-nr Nävelsjö 3:1 har alltså objekt-id 10064700030001. Frågan om vad för en geografisk enhet ATA:s sockenkod egentligen syftar på är däremot ett h*****e, då sentida förändringar inte är helt konsekvent genomförda. Söker man i FMIS Fornsök så brukar ett litet fåtal socknar saknas i listorna (jag kan inte ge något exempel just nu eftersom Fornsök ligger nere). Jag har för övrigt sett professionella arkeologer publicera de mest hårresande missar genom att förväxla olika socknar i fornminnesregistret i stil med exemplet från Lund ovan. I just den frågan behöver alla professionella parter rycka upp sig. / Achird (talk) 13:23, 17 August 2012 (UTC)

Något jag inte hunnit kontrollera är hur objekt-id är uppbyggda för RAÄ-nr av typen Nävelsjö 3:1 (1), (Inte ett autentiskt exempel, men är fmis nere så...) -- Lavallen 13:35, 17 August 2012 (UTC)

Fmis sockengränser för Östergötland (del) mot avkalkerade häradsek från ca 1860–1880.[76] Det finns avvikelser lite överallt. Edaen (talk) 18:51, 17 August 2012 (UTC)

Om det här nu inte ska läggas ut i ns:0, utan bara vara PR för WLM i projektnamnrymden, spelar då detta ngn större betydelse? Det är ju uppenbarligen bara de (fornminnesmässigt) största kommunerna som kommer att delas upp i mindre enheter. -- Lavallen 06:56, 18 August 2012 (UTC)

Jag vet ännu inte vilken namnrymnd listorna kommer att bo i, jag tog enbart upp frågan då jag själv är osäker på om de platsar. Jag tror att en ATA->artikel matchning skulle vara jättebra att ha, dock tror jag att det är något som är bättre att göra separat från det nuvarande tabellbyggandet (deadline är trots allt om 11 dagar). För det framtida artikel/faktabox genereringsprojektet skulle som sagt matchningen vara guld värd (och varför inte även motsvarande automatiserad matchning för kommunnr och länsnr?). /Lokal_Profil 11:10, 20 August 2012 (UTC)

sv:Användare:Lokal Profil/Socknar inehaller nu en lista pa 2272 socknar. Ska se om jag kan utoka den vidare, [77] indikerar att det borde finnas 2438 poster (dock numrerade upp till 3081. /Lokal_Profil 14:04, 20 August 2012 (UTC)

De saknade posterna finns nu i sv:Användardiskussion:Lokal Profil/Socknar. /Lokal_Profil 14:30, 20 Augu st 2012 (UTC)

Jag har nu minskat antalet saknade poster genom att lägga in diverse Skånesocknar som saknade faktaruta. De 80 poster som är kvar på sv:Användardiskussion:Lokal Profil/Socknar verkar alla ha stadsnamn så jag är osäker på om det är närområdessocknar eller städerna som avses. Jag har även hittat 30 socknar som enligt wiki har samma ATA koder vilket jag måste undersöka. /Lokal_Profil 17:07, 20 August 2012 (UTC)

Lokal Profil: För socknarna i Västergötland kan du jämföra sv:Användare:Lokal Profil/Socknar med sv:Lista över socknar i Västergötland. Till skillnad från vad du anger i din fil så är ATA:s socken-kod 1885 Falköpings stad medan Falköpings västra socken är 3027 och Falköpings östra socken är 3028. / Achird (talk) 18:17, 20 August 2012 (UTC) / Jag har nu laddat upp en karta över de tre Falköpingssocknarna, File:Falköpings stad o socknar 1-40000.jpg, utifall det skulle förenkla arbetet något. / Achird (talk) 21:16, 20 August 2012 (UTC)

Det lär finnas en hel del sådana missar, resultatet av att socknar med 3000+ nummer (oftast) inte finns med i fmis och artiklarna lankar darfor ofta till en senare sockenbildning. Eftersom listan till storsta delen ar genererad av att skorda dessa lankar sa blir det flera sadana missar. Jag har nagra tankar pa hur jag automatiskt skulle kunna identifiera dessa men har inte haft tid att prova dem annu. Problemet ar nog vanligast runt stader da dessa ofta inte har sockenlankar i sina artiklar. /Lokal_Profil 13:00, 24 August 2012 (UTC)

Har nu putsat upp listan lite mer. Om den ser ok ut så använder jag den för att generera sockenlänkarna i Fornminneslistorna. /Lokal_Profil 22:26, 26 August 2012 (UTC)

Jag att du skapat mallen KMB-link och jag tror vi har tänkt ganska lika. Jag har testat lite med att göra RAÄ-mall baserad på mallen Photograph (User:MikaelLindmark/Riksantikvarieämbetet-image).

En standardiserad mall för importerade KMB bilder hade definitivt varit bra. Som Lavallen nämnde så pratade vi om sådan dataimport på min sv.wiki diskussionssida. {{KMB-link}} introducerade jag till stor del för att ersätta diverse olika länkformat med det persistenta kulturarvsdata.se formatet. Genom att alla kallar samma mall är det även enklare att standardisera utseendet. I din mall skulle den nog bäst bäddas in i samband med id-numret. Det är definitivt ett intressant projekt. KMB har en rikedom av bilder och de fåtal vi har här i dagsläget är uppmärkta på alla möjliga vis. /Lokal_Profil 15:18, 7 September 2012 (UTC)

Kinesiska folkets politiskt rådgivande konferens

Jag har för mig att officiella kinesiska emblem är ok. Kolla upp ifall {{PD-PRC-exempt}} är applicerbar och önska i så fall en svg version på Commons:Graphic Lab/Illustration workshop. Liknande vapen har fått respons där tidigare. Vapnet är tyvärr lite för avancerat f6r att jag ska kunna ta mig an det, åtminstone just nu. /Lokal_Profil 22:49, 14 February 2013 (UTC)

Svartsjö län

Kan jag få önska mig en svg för sv:Svartsjö län. Gränserna ska tydligen överenstämma med Ekerö kommun idag, så det borde man kunna återanvända något gammalt för att åstadkomma. Observera att länet existerade runt 1800, så mycket av andra gränser i landet inte är aktuella för perioden. Den nuvarande översiktskartan visar Stockholms kommun tydligare än något annat, så det finns mycket utrymme för missförstånd. Andra länskartor ser ut ungefär såhär och det perspektivet är kanske för långt ifrån. -- Lavallen 12:49, 30 April 2013 (UTC)

Det överensstämmde (mer eller mindre?) med Färentuna härad. Karta över Upplands län File:Upplands härader.svg 1872. Edaen (talk) 13:09, 30 April 2013 (UTC)

Hej. Ursäkta det sena svaret. Utan en grundkarta i stil med de Edaen har anänt är det svårt att skapa något. Jag var dock nyligen på en konferens där jag fick höra om RegTerra som är en databas med historiska vektorkartor. Tanken med dessa är just att unikt kunna definiera vilket geografiskt område som avses när man talar om statistik för äldre administrativa indelningar. P.g.a. Wiki Loves Public Art har jag tyvärr inte kunnat titta närmare på detta men första intrycket är att det skulle vara till stor nytta både för oss här. /Lokal_Profil 13:07, 6 May 2013 (UTC)

hello I am dunkerqueenflandre I wanted to start by saying that there is a small error on your coat of arms there are no stars above the eagle look s it please.

And I have a quick question to ask in relation to the source that I just gave you would know you tell me where I could find the same for the first Oscar of Sweden (Prince and King)

thank you in advance for your help good day to you? SORRY FOR MY ENGLISH--Dunkerqueenflandre (talk) 09:34, 17 May 2013 (UTC)

Hi. Thanks for spotting the mistake. Will try and fix it as soon as possible. As for the other coat of arms they might be hanging in a church in Stockholm but I don't think they are available online. /Lokal_Profil 18:40, 24 May 2013 (UTC)

Hello, I'm French so for me it is impossible, but could you please if you have time to take pictures in a church in Stockholm for the arms of Oscar I, because my source I read eagle transorme black raven in 1844 when Oscar I became king.

and if you can take a photo of the Queen Desideria and Queen Josephina would help me a lot.

I'll give it a try when I'm back. Not sure whether they allow cameras though. /Lokal_Profil 11:46, 25 May 2013 (UTC)

I've checked and they have a no-camera policy. Thus I'll have to get in touch with them and negotiate being allowed to take images, something which I don't have time to do at the moment. As soon as I do though I'll get in touch with you. /Lokal_Profil 13:56, 6 June 2013 (UTC)

Request that category moves are better documented in edit summary

Hi. I am repeatedly being poked by people not liking category moves, this usually follows my doing a removal or catredirect from the commands page. I am asking all admins who add category moves if they would please look to better document the moves that are being ordered for SieBot. As background, I asked Siebrand if there was a better means to automate the "who ordered" statement, but he is unable to do so, such we are going to need to do this manually. Thanks for your cooperation.  — billinghurst sDrewth 00:26, 24 May 2013 (UTC)

Imagesize

Hello Lokal Profil, about this, have I broken something with that new parameter? I wish the size could be automatically adjusted so that it was not needed, but I do not know if that is possible, so I added that... --- Darwin ^Ahoy! 15:57, 24 May 2013 (UTC)

There is a tiny difference between {{{parameter|<default>}}} and {{#if: {{{parameter|}}}|{{{parameter|}}}|<default>}}. If you have parameter=<blank> in the template call they both show <default> give the same result but if the parameter is missing completely the first shows <blank> whereas the second shows <default>. Since imagesize was missing in most templates it meant that the images were replaced by something broken. Fixed now though =) /Lokal_Profil 18:35, 24 May 2013 (UTC)

Mein Got, I'm very sorry! Thank you very much for fixing it. Will have that present, next time.--- Darwin ^Ahoy! 21:56, 24 May 2013 (UTC)

Hello, I hope you are well, I come to you for two things.

First, I found a source for the arms of the Prince Gustav future King Gustav V watch the eagle is red, then it is normally blue.

the second, I search the arms of Princess Eugenie of Sweden (1830/1889) first daughter of King Oscar I would like to know what province she was princess.

THANK YOU for your help good day to you --Dunkerqueenflandre (talk) 08:19, 30 May 2013 (UTC)

It's unclear whether the red on gold is an official rendering. I've had plans of getting hold of the official blazons but so far haven't had the time. Also don't have any info about Eugenie, sorry. /Lokal_Profil 13:53, 6 June 2013 (UTC)

Swedish collars

Hej, Lokal Profil. I've been asked at my talk page to make some coloured versions of the collars of the Order of Vasa and the Order of the Sword. I could try to dump some colours into File:Keten en ster van de Orde van het Zwaard, Zweden 1522.jpg but imo it would be better to have some new SVGs. Unfortunately my SVG skills are currently limited to tweaking existing stuff. So, since you made a collar for the Serafimerorden a while ago, I thought you might be interested in this kind of job. Please contact Dunkerqueenflandre if you'd like to draw those new collars. De728631 (talk) 17:43, 30 May 2013 (UTC)

Whilst I'd love to do them I'm overrun with work lately so won't have the time. Might be worth asking whether Ssolbergj can do them though. /Lokal_Profil 13:50, 6 June 2013 (UTC)

Hi Earl. This might depend slightly on which image you are referring to but in general just write "Image by Lokal_Profil/CC-BY-SA" in connection with the use. If you are using it in an online context then linking to the image and to the license would also be good. /Lokal_Profil 13:40, 6 June 2013 (UTC)

Commons:Undeletion_requests/Current_requests#File:Kongeflagg.png

Hi, I see you're still an admin around here - almost feel like saying "sorry" as I had a part in talking you into talking the bit on ages ago. Anyway, could you please take a look at this post at COM:UDEL and related DR, it should be right up your street as it concerns COA. I'm not asking you to overturn another admins decisions (although closing a undeletion request yourself after having closed the DR was frowned upon in my time), but a piece of advice at this point could be helpful.

Hi Local_Profil,

I would like to use modifications (cropping, automated recoloring) of your map as part of a web demo. Would you mind granting an exception to the share-alike clause in this case? I have asked Astrokey44/Roke as well.

Upphovsrätt Lantmäteriet

Hej! Jag har fått upphovsrättsligt medgivande från Lantmäteriet. Bland annat till till att använda Valmyndighetens shapefiler och bilder av ek.kartan(!) vilket senare jag egentligen inte begärde. Medgivandet stämmer inte riktigt till formen med Commons standardlicenser och rör delvis sådant som inte är nödvändigt för Commons som Valmyndighetens filer eller att hämta data från (kalkera) ekonomiska kartan. Licensen innehåller krav på attribution. Jag har ännu inte databas- och spridningstillstånd. Jag är osäker på vilken eller vilka licenser jag skall använda i olika fall. Skall jag skicka mejlkonversationen till OTRS? Edaen (talk) 17:18, 8 October 2013 (UTC)

Skicka den till OTRS och pinga mig sedan med rubrikraden så ska jag ta mig en titt. Problemet är oftast att skilja mellan upphovsrättsliga och andra begränsningar. Bäst vore självfallet ifall de kunde släppa materialet under någon tyå av standardlicens. Man kan även argumentera för att detta skulle ge dem en viss "peace of mind" I att folk inte av misstag missanvänder det p.g.a. luddigt formulerade begränsningar. /Lokal_Profil 08:33, 10 October 2013 (UTC)

Jag skickade den till "info-sv@wikimedia.org" med rubrikraden "Tillstånd". Edaen (talk) 09:08, 10 October 2013 (UTC)

Hej. Ursäkta otydligheten. Jag menade "permissions-commons@wikimedia.org" (har inte själv tillgång till "info-sv@wikimedia.org". Skriv gärna "Tillstånd, attn:Lokal_Profil" som rubrik så hittas den enklare av mig och förvirrar förhoppningsvis ingen annan. Pinga här när den är skickad. /Lokal_Profil 10:44, 16 October 2013 (UTC)

"Ping!" Edaen (talk) 10:57, 16 October 2013 (UTC)

Tack för svaret! Egentligen är den enda frågan om jag får hämta gränser från ekonomiska kartan. Övrigt material är fritt. Openstreetmap har tolkat ekonomiska kartan som en databas och att skyddet har gått ut.[81] Upphovsrättsskyddet gäller den "samlade kartbilden", inte kartinformationen. Man kan tycka att en myndighet borde läsa bifogade länkar till licensvillkor.[82] Edaen (talk) 18:13, 17 October 2013 (UTC)

CC license - Bohuslän vapen.svg=

I'd like to use your SVG of the Bohuslän vapen - correctly attributing the work - with a Bohuslän article in this year's "God Jul" (Austrian-Swedish Association's xmas magazine). But this "share alike" restriction seems a little confusing to me: Would that mean this certain article or the whole 100 pages of the magazine would have to be lincensed under the same conditions (CC-SA) which most likely would not allow me using your graphic?

Vasar på kronor

Hej! För ett tag sedan gjorde jag ett inlägg i Projekt: Heraldik på WP om dessa båda bilder:

De avbildas här med svarta vasar. Både Riksarkivet och Kungl. Maj:ts Orden avbildar dem i guld. /Elzo 90 (talk) 09:22, 5 November 2013 (UTC)

Hej. Jag är väl medveten om skillnaden i färg mellan kronorna. Anledningen till att svart används (av både Klingspor och mig) är att de verkliga kronorna har vasar av svart emalj. Se t.ex. [83]. Från en heraldisk vinkel är det självfallet snyggare med guld men jag har ännu inte hittat beslutet för när man gick över till detta (troligen Kungl. Maj:ts Orden). Kan du hitta referensen för detta ändrar jag gärna färgen. Problemet är just att Riksarkivet vad jag vill minnas mig inte hade en ordentlig källa för varför de nu målar med guld. /Lokal_Profil 23:59, 14 November 2013 (UTC)

Spørsmål fra Norge

Hei! Håper det er greit at jeg skriver til deg på norsk, antar du forstår det. Jeg hadde gleden av å høre din kollega Axel Pettersson på Wikipediaseminar - Kulturarv i fri flyt i Oslo i går og snakket med ham i en av pausene. Det var han som fortalte meg om navnet ditt her på Commons.

Her i Norge har vi for tiden to personer som Wikipedian-in-residence hos Riksantikvaren; den ene av dem står for det mer tekniske og det er Lars Alvik, bruker Profoss. Riksantikvaren sitter på mange bilder og har i første omgang frigitt 4 000 som skal lastes opp til commons. Noen få er her allerede, du kan se dem i kategorien Images from The Norwegian Directorate for Cultural Heritage. Profoss har laget en bot for å laste dem opp, Riksbot, og har bedt om tillatelse til å bruke boten her: http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Bots/Requests/Riksbot Det ser ikke ut til at det skjer noe mer. Er det noe du som admin her på Commons kan gjøre? Kan du sette botstatus, f.eks.? Regards --Anne-Sophie Ofrim (talk) 08:06, 27 November 2013 (UTC)

Hej. ursäkta det försenade svaret. jag har tittat på ansökan som ser bra ut. Jag kan inte själv göra något åt situationen (bot-flaggor kräver mer än adminbehörighet). Jag har dock kommenterat på diskussionen med lite förslag som jag tror kan hjälpa det hela vidare. Det hjälper troligen även om Profoss uppdaterar med ett svar angående kategoriseringen. Jag har även pingat den förra byråkraten med en fråga för att se om jag kan få igång det hela igen. /Lokal_Profil 19:59, 30 November 2013 (UTC)

Själevads kommunvapen

Hej, jag har gjort en sketch på hur jag tolkar blasoneringen för Själevad. Tror du det är möjligt att skapa det här vapnet? Portunes (talk) 15:58, 19 December 2013 (UTC)

Jag ska försöka ta en titt på dessa nu under julen. Stora Kopparbergs vapen är ett riktigt bra fynd, den borde jag definitivt kunna göra. Själevads är lite mer problemeatisk men har hittat en grund på Commons jag borde kunna använda. Originalritnignen kan du se på [85]. /Lokal_Profil 20:28, 23 December 2013 (UTC)

Fantastiskt snyggt! Portunes (talk) 21:10, 25 December 2013 (UTC)

Här har du lite fler att ta dig an om du så önskar: SV:Vagnhärads landskommun#Kommunvapnet (och en version från Debatthuset.com); SV:Vårfruberga landskommun#Kommunvapnet (samt tolkning från Debatthuset.com), SV:Hille landskommun#Kommunvapnet (Debatthuset.com); SV:Högsjö landskommun#Kommunvapnet (Debatthuset.com, SV:Norrbärke landskommun#Kommunvapnet (Bild på vapnet här). Portunes (talk) 21:37, 25 December 2013 (UTC)

Utöver Norrbärke (nu gjord) har jag sett dessa tidigare. Vagnhärad och Hille är att de i praktiken avbildningar av specifika objekt vilket gör dem svåra att rita. För Högsjö saknar jag en bra digital förlaga till en stiliserad korp (behövs även för några andra vapen). Vårfruberga borde jag kunna få till. /Lokal_Profil 21:55, 26 December 2013 (UTC)

Kommandotecken

Hej! På sida 70 i Försvarsmaktens grafiska profil 2013 finns bilder på emblem (kommandotecken) för vissa chefer inom försvaret. Jag har länge saknat dessa på WP. Är det något du kan tänka dig att rita om du får tid över? /Elzo 90 (talk) 17:05, 21 December 2013 (UTC)

Hej. Jag har tittat på dessa innan. De är tekniskt sett inte svåra att skapa men har möjliga upphovsrättsliga problem. Även om de är heraldiska i sin natur har jag för mig att de är baserade på ritnignar snarare än en blasonering. Detta skulle i sin tur innebära att en eventuell ritning är ett härledt verk av bilden snarare än en separat tolkning av blasoneringen. Om du hittar information på motsattsen så ritar jag dock gärna dessa fanor/tecken.

Tack för länktipset förresten. Hittade några vapen där som saknades och jag ska försöka rita. Ser du nått som finns där men saknas här får du gärna skriva en rad. Om något tidifare vapen tagits över av en ny instans får du gärna lägga till en rad om detta i filbeskrivningen. /Lokal_Profil 20:40, 23 December 2013 (UTC)

Jag förstår. Visste inte att upphovsrätten spelade in. Jag ska se om tecknen finns blasonerade. Kul att länken kom till användning. /Elzo 90 (talk) 16:19, 29 December 2013 (UTC)

Jag fick svar från statsheraldikern och mycket riktigt blasoneras inte kommandotecknen. Däremot jobbar Riksarkivet tydligen på att publicera olika modellritningar av vapen på Commons, vilket är en väldigt god nyhet. /Elzo 90 (talk) 09:56, 2 January 2014 (UTC)

Thanks for the heads up. A few files crashed during upload. Thought we'd found most of these though. I'll look on my disc after the holidays to see if I have a backup there. Otherwise I'll need to get a new one from the museum. Work there has slowed down for personnel reasons so some of the follow-up to the batch-upload has been down-prioritised. Still if you find more such things either drop a line here or on Commons:LSH/Error reports.

Dear Wikimedians,

Wikimedia Commons is happy to announce that the second round of 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. Wikimedia users are invited to vote for their favorite images featured on Commons during the last year (2013) 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 were 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.

There are two total rounds of voting. In the first round, you voted for as many images as you liked. The top 30 overall and the most popular image in each category have continued to the final. In the final round, you may vote for just one image to become the Picture of the Year.

John, Duke of Östergötland/Johan av Sverige, hertig av Östergötland

https://www.numisbids.com/n.php?p=lot&sid=665&lot=746

Hello, I hope you are well.

I need your help please.

I found the coat of arms of John, Duke of Östergötland (1589/1618), but I have a problem described.

What can you see at the bottom left the coat of arms or Östergötland or the lion of Bjelbo ?

and a bottom right fish or a boat or....coat of arms or Östergötland

Thank you in advance for your help good day and good weekend to you

cordidally--Dunkerqueenflandre (talk) 09:30, 1 March 2014 (UTC)

Hard to say. Bottom left is definitly not the Östergötland CoA. I'd say it's likely a lion of Bjelbo (think there are lines indicating the parted field below).

Bottom right is harder. Again not the Östergötland CoA but as for what it is I couldn't say: Mermaid possibly, or Fish, boat, sausage ;)

It's likely not his official CoA (or at least not his only one). /Lokal_Profil 17:05, 5 March 2014 (UTC)

Do you think a dragon but timeworn?

as in the arms of Östanstång

Don't think so. Comparing it to the top right field it looks a lot like they are the same. /Lokal_Profil 18:04, 5 March 2014 (UTC)

I would recommend asking at Heraldica. A forum for scandinavian heraldry. The link goes to the English part of the forum (you would need to get an account). /Lokal_Profil 10:24, 8 March 2014 (UTC)

• • Hello I hope you are well, we can be found a solution with my friend FJMH.

What we see is neither a fish nor a siren, not a real dragon but .... a Wyverns.

Look at what we have uploaded

At that time the Ostergotland is divided into 2 would therefore part Västanstångs

What would that this shield is not a dragon but it would Wyverns.

Give me your opinion please thank you, good day --Dunkerqueenflandre (talk) 08:09, 17 March 2014 (UTC)

cordially

Seems as though you found the answer. Could you please add the source of the image to the description? As for File:Västanstång vapen.svg the blazon specifies a dragon not a wyern. Might be that the blazon is incorrect though. /Lokal_Profil 16:24, 18 March 2014 (UTC)

good day to you --Dunkerqueenflandre (talk) 16:42, 18 March 2014 (UTC)

cordially

I checked my source and apparently the blazon for this (and Östanstång) were never written defined and have been reconstructed from various images and descriptions which is why they tend to differ. They were designed for Gustav Vasa's funeral and where only really in use whilst his son Magnus was alive. :I've created a second version using a wyern as an alternative interpretation of the arms. /Lokal_Profil 14:40, 5 April 2014 (UTC)

Request for feedback on my GSoC'14 proposal

Hi Lokal Profil,

I am planning to work on the project titled "Tools for mass migration of legacy translated wiki content" this summer under Google Summer of Code. I have drafted a proposal for the same over the past few weeks. This project is going to help the translation adminstrators like you in a great way, as it would completely automate the tedious manual task of preparing a page for translation and then importing the translations into the Translate extension. You can check the proposal page for detailed information on how I plan to accomplish this.

As you would be an end user of this tool, it would be great if you could go through the proposal and provide feedback/suggestions. Your feedback would definitely help me improve the proposal as well help in creating an even better tool. You can do the same on the discussion page of the proposal or reply here, whichever is convenient for you. I look forward to hearing from you! Thank you!

P.S: I need to submit the proposal to Google by March 19, 2014.

Ah. I think I found the missunderstanding. With bolts I mean "lightning bolts" (of which there are 4). You are correct in that there are 5 metal protrusions from the mine though (these are not defined in the blason). /Lokal_Profil 09:44, 10 May 2014 (UTC)

Best regards Ajwnet (talk) 15:08, 18 May 2014 (UTC)

No worries ;) The easiest way of leaving a new message is to use the Add topic link at the top of the page.

The new image looks like a good find which would be useful on Commons. Since I don't speak Hungarian it would probably be easiest if you uploaded the new image. Since it is a different crop and source I would upload it with a different file name though. If you want I can take a look afterwards to check that everything looks ok? Cheers /Lokal_Profil 11:07, 19 May 2014 (UTC)

Please test the new feature Special:PageMigration

As a Google Summer of Code Intern, I have been working on the Mass Migration tools project for Wikimedia. We are now ready with a minimal working product. The tool helps translators and translation administrators import the old translations into the Translate Extension.

An instance of the same has been set up on labs. You can find some useful instructions on the main page.

Please test the tool and report bugs/suggestions using the link provided on the main page itself. You can have a look at the tracking bug to check already reported bugs.

Looking forward to hearing from you! Cheers. BPositive (talk) 15:01, 14 June 2014 (UTC)

Hello, User:Lokal Profil/transtesting shows up on Special:PageTranslation. Pleas add it to a AG or remove it from translation system (my suggestion). I suggest you to test such things on Commons Beta. Regards --Steinsplitter (talk) 21:45, 19 July 2014 (UTC)

Livrustkammen costume images

I've started working on English translations of the descriptions on the Livrustkammen costume images. I know a lot about 17th century clothing, but not a lot of Swedish! Please let me know if I get anything obviously wrong.

I'm doing short descriptions first, and working on the longer ones. Here's an example. File:Ett par byxor av grå vadmal med banddekor och silvergaloner - Livrustkammaren - 1257.tif. - PKM (talk) 23:24, 24 August 2014 (UTC)

Code issues in User:Lokal Profil/common.js

Hi Lokal Profil, I am a bored bot (this is kind of a computer program) that is watching the recent changes and tapping buttons like I did now.

Curious about the reason? Possibly not but I will tell you anyway:

1. You edited User:Lokal Profil/common.js. Glad to see you coding in javascript! Have you ever considered becoming a MediaWiki hacker?
2. Though, that change appears to introduce 5 new jshint issues — the page's status is now having warnings. Note that invalid or ambiguous code often has unwanted side effects like breaking other tools for you. If you cannot find out how to fix it, I suggest blanking the page for now.
3. To help you understanding where the issues are, I have aggregated a report here and now. If you have questions, don't hesitate to ask users experienced in javascript writing for help. But do not ask the bot's operators (chronically overwrought) unless you suspect an error of mine. If you prefer not getting spammed by me, you can opt-out reports by adding {{ValidationOptOut|type=all}} to your user page or cmb-opt-out anywhere on your your global user page on Meta. Good luck at Wikimedia Commons and happy hacking!

1. ISSUE: line 29 character 37: The array literal notation [] is preferable. - Evidence: var editsections = new Array();
2. ISSUE: line 39 character 19: 'i' is already defined. - Evidence: var i = 0;
3. ISSUE: line 74 character 1: document.write can be a form of eval. - Evidence: document.write('<script type="text/javascript" src="/w/index.php?title=MediaWiki:Quick-delete.js&action=raw&ctype=text/javascript"><\/script>');
4. ISSUE: line 109 character 62: Script URL. - Evidence: mw.util.addPortletLink("p-tb", "javascript:doUncat()", "uncat", "ca-uncat", "Märk som uncat", "");
5. ISSUE: line 122 character 31: Bad or unnecessary escaping. - Evidence: 'tag': '{\{duplicate|1=%PARAMETER%}}',

Swedish coats of arms - code manually altered

Hi - most of the coats of arms you created are tagged "created with inkscape - manually altered". I could not find out what kind of changes/improvement on the code you made manually. Can you give me an idea? -- Maxxl² - talk 09:29, 22 September 2014 (UTC)

Kalmar vapen (igen)

SVT använder sig en gammal version av File:Kalmar vapen.svg i en artikel idag. De skriver endast "Foto: Jessica Gow/TT" under bilden. Jag tänkte att du kanske ville veta. Mvh – GeMet [talk] 16:36, 2 October 2014 (UTC)

@GeMet: Voila! Inte helt rätt men betydligt bättre [89]. /Lokal_Profil 11:35, 6 October 2014 (UTC)

Jo, bättre. Men man kan ju undra varför de tog den gamla bilden... – GeMet [talk] 20:43, 12 October 2014 (UTC)

@GeMet: Troligen för att sv:Kalmar kommun/en:Kalmar Municipality fortfarande använder den gamla. Jag ser att du gjort en vektorversion av Riksarkivets bild som jag istället bytte till. Har du vektoriserat fler av RAs bilder? /Lokal_Profil 09:57, 14 October 2014 (UTC)

Jag syftade på att de hade den gamla färkodningen som vi (läs du) hade på våra vapen innan. Nej, jag gjorde enbart den bilden. Jag är inte speciellt duktig på vektorgrafik så det tog en hiskelig tid, haha! :) – GeMet [talk] 20:52, 15 October 2014 (UTC)

Det har du ju helt rätt i. Hum de måste ha suttit med en nedladdad gammal bild någonstans. Din vektoriserade bild blev jättebra. Man kan automatiskt konvertera rastergrafiken till vektorgrafik men resultatet lämnar ofta en del att önska. /Lokal_Profil 08:04, 16 October 2014 (UTC)

Wiki Loves Monuments 2014 - Ein Wiki-Beitrag für die Denkmaltopographie

Hallo Lokal Profil,

vor zehn Tagen endete der vierte Fotowettbewerb Wiki Loves Monuments. Du hast daran aktiv teilgenommen und wir möchten Dir dafür herzlich danken.

Mit mehr als 35 Tausend Fotos hat Deutschland wie in den Vorjahren ein gutes Ergebnis erreicht und einen Anteil von 14 % an diesem internationalen Projekt erbracht, an dem sich 40 Länder beteiligten. Sehr erfreulich ist die hohe Zahl an 651 Teilnehmern allein in Deutschland. Schon zum Abschluss des Wettbewerbs waren rund 6000 Fotos (=17 %) in Listen und Artikel eingebunden. Einen detaillierten Überblick zu den Fotos, den Bundesländern und Teilnehmern findest du auf unserer WLM-Projektseite.

Die deutsche Jury hat nun die eingereichten Beiträge übernommen und ist gegenwärtig dabei, diesen wertvollen Fotobestand zu den Kulturdenkmalen zu sichten. Am nächsten Wochenende wird in Hamburg die entscheidende Jury-Sitzung stattfinden. Wir wünschen auch Dir mit Deinem Foto-Beitrag dabei viel Glück und Erfolg. Du darfst gespannt sein und all Deine Freunde bitten, Dir die Daumen zu drücken.

Die preisgekrönten 100 Gewinner-Fotos werden in der Woche ab dem 20. Oktober veröffentlicht. Auf dieser Grundlage wird auch in diesem Jahr ein Kalender-Poster für 2015 gedruckt werden.

Auf zwei Möglichkeiten einer weiteren aktiven Mitwirkung an unserem Denkmal-Projekt möchten wir bei dieser Gelegenheit hinweisen bzw. Dich dazu einladen:

• Unsere Freunde in Österreich haben mit einem gerade gestarteten Denkmal-Cup das Editieren von Denkmallisten und Denkmalartikeln in den Focus gerückt. Bis Ende des Jahres kannst Du Punkte sammeln und Preise gewinnen. Dabei geht es mit diesem Wettbewerb nicht nur um Kulturdenkmale in AT oder D, sondern generell um Denkmale in der deutschsprachigen Wikipedia, als offen für alle Länder.

• Vom 6.-8. November findet erneut die Europäische Denkmalmesse in Leipzig statt. Mit Unterstützung von Wikimedia Deutschland e.V. werden wir zum zweiten Mal die Ergebnisse von Wiki Loves Monuments im Rahmen eines Standes sowie eines Workshops vorstellen.

WLM-Aktivisten sind herzlich eingeladen, bei der Betreuung des Messestandes sowie in den Gesprächen über Möglichkeiten einer partnerschaftlichen Zusammenarbeit mit den Denkmalbehörden mitzuwirken. Die Reisekosten übernimmt für 8-10 registrierte Standbetreuer WMDE. Es muss nicht der gesamte Messezeitraum sein, auch eine Mitwirkung an 2 Tagen hilft uns, den Beitrag der Wikipedia für die Denkmaltopographie sichtbar zu machen.

Und schließlich gilt: Nach dem Wettbewerb ist vor dem Wettbewerb. Bereits jetzt kann jeder mit der Planung von Wiki Loves Monuments 2015 beginnen. Wir freuen uns auf Deine weiteren Beiträge für Wikimedia-Projekte.

Viel Spaß dabei wünscht Dir das Orga-Team.

( Bernd Gross), 11.10.2014

Hej!

Jag laddade upp två logotyper på Göteborg Landvetter Flygplats och jag fick meddelandet av en "bot" att de inte kan godkännas. Så jag undrar om du kan ta bort dessa två bilder?

timezones in Russia

Hello, Maybe you won't have time but i saw you made the actual map of time zones in Russia. The fact is they changed their rules this Sunday and the map needs an update. I'll ask to others if you can not. For the moment I only have those 2 articles New time in Russia on 2014, 26 oct and Donetsk & Luhansk as a reference, which is not enough i guess but is still a start. Thank you.

If you can tell me which districts have been shifted and how then I can try to put together a new map. /Lokal_Profil 18:56, 30 October 2014 (UTC)

Sure. The zones, changes and a map/control website Time&Date map (beware : they slow down if you refresh too often). Someone already made this map so maybe you will only have to check and nothing to draw (?)... Thank you. The main article is Time in Russia.

@2a01:e35:39d2:9350:3d33:fc56:2c3f:4792: Finally got time to look at it. Looks good but I cleaned up some of the errors which have been building up over previous versions. Nice to se how the original maps have taken on a life of their own =) /Lokal_Profil 23:31, 21 December 2014 (UTC)

Afghanistan district reform?

Dear Lokal Profil,

I was using File:Map of Afghanistan, Districts and Provinces.svg from you to draw a map of poppy cultivation. I used Afghan opium survey, p. 9 as template. The I noticed, that in some provinces district borders does not match by any means. Do you know, whether there was a district reform in Afghanistan?--Kopiersperre (talk) 13:04, 6 January 2015 (UTC)

I don't actually know but considering that "my" map is from 2009 it is more than likely. Is the missmatch true for all provinces or only some? I guess the first step would be to look at en:Districts of Afghanistan and check if that (and other language versions) is up to data. POssibly there might also be info in en:List of splits and creations of districts in Afghanistan. If nothing else an up to date basemap would definitely be worth having. /Lokal_Profil 16:25, 6 January 2015 (UTC)

Text syns inte på karta

Hej Lokal Profil! Jag använde din File:SWE-Map_Län2007.svg för att göra en karta över sveriges regioner och landsting File:SWE-Map_RegionerochLandsting2015.svg men det blir en svart ruta över texten. Vet du hur man fixar det? Mvh, Portunes (talk) 18:33, 7 February 2015 (UTC)

Hej!. Kul att kartan används. Jag antar att du har skapat din fil i Inkscape. Inkscape lägger tyvärr till ett objekt runt sina texter som inte stöds av andra svg-visare än Inkscape. För att fixa det markerar du den aktuella texten i Inkscape, går till menyn och väljer "text"->"Convert to text" (eller motsvarande svenska). Spara och ladda upp igen så ska boxen försvinna. Hojta till om det fortfarande strular. /Lokal_Profil 17:50, 12 February 2015 (UTC)

Template:CC-BY-RAÄ

Hi, I'm contacting you because you changed this template's license from CC BY 3.0 to CC BY 2.5 SE. This is usually considered a license revocation, so if the institution has previously licensed all lowres versions under the CC BY 3.0, that license should be put back into its licensing template. Has that been the case? FDMS 4 16:43, 6 April 2015 (UTC)

Please ping me in any response, as I've been working on this set of images (my commenting about the license on some images from this source disagreeing with the one currently at the source in IRC was what prompted this question). Revent (talk) 17:20, 6 April 2015 (UTC)

@FDMS4 and Revent: It was some time ago but if I remembered correctly the source webpage only used to say CC BY, since 3.0 was the standard at the time it was believed (by us/Commons users) to be 3.0. When I contacted them about it they clarified that the particular version they had chosen was 2.5-SE (I believe they at this point also clarified this on the homepage, and started to make it clearer when an image was PD and when it was CC BY). So it's not a question about RAÄ changing their license but of us having assumed a version which was not the correct one... as far as a I remember.

That said it must be a special case indeed if it hinges on some detail of CC BY 2.5 SE which is not compatible with CC BY 3.0 unported./Lokal_Profil 07:54, 7 April 2015 (UTC)

Thanks for the explanation! In the future, please never assume any license versions as "CC BY" or "CC BY-SA" aren't sufficient releases. FDMS 4 19:36, 7 April 2015 (UTC)

Thanks, this was mainly just to clarify... I have been going through some of the older uploads from that source (adding creator templates and metadata) and had noticed inconsistencies in the licensing... there were some marked as 3.0, some as 'generic' cc-by (i.e. 1.0), and some with the source-specific template... RAA currently shows that they use 2.5-se (which is what the template uses) so I've been using the template where the license we give doesn't match (most likely uploader errors, seeing the 'cc-by' icon and not looking at what version it links to. Revent (talk) 07:15, 10 April 2015 (UTC)

@Revent: Great. In case you haven't found it already I built a tool a couple of years ago to automatically populate a {{Kulturmiljöbild-image}} based on the id of their images. Might be useful if you come across more old ones. /Lokal_Profil 13:36, 10 April 2015 (UTC)

Nice... yes, there are many that are not using the source-specific templates. That will make it faster.. I came across these from looking at 'implicit creator' files, and noticed that "Pål-Nils Nilsson" in particular had many from there, then found the specific templates.. just noticed you poked at least one of the ones I had messed with. Other than the date (I wasn't that sure about saying '1970's based on "Bilden troligen från mitten av 1970-talet" when it also said "Okänt datum" on the source page, but no complaint) I take it you don't have issues with the edits?

No issues just happy someone is giving them som much needed love =) /Lokal_Profil 16:58, 12 April 2015 (UTC)

1. Den här filen "File:Noter till Studentsången av Prins Gustav - Livrustkammaren - 78468.tif " innehåller en märklig kommentart om en rysk mässkåpa som verkar ha hamnat fel...

Medeltida vapen

Hej! Jag skriver en artikel om borgerliga vapen i Sverige och undrar om du har lust att rita de äldsta kända vapnen. Blasoneringarna är från Ranekes Svenska medeltidsvapen och tinkturerna är okända:

Livrustkammaren image

Something has gone wrong with File:Guldservis från 1777-1778 - Livrustkammaren - 13600.tif, a colour image. Also are there any detail pics? I want to use this in a WP article. Johnbod (talk) 23:55, 15 June 2015 (UTC)

There is an issue with the colour profile and/or how this is rendered in MediaWiki (compare to if you download the image when it looks ok). I think I've fixed it. There are currently no detail pics available. /André Costa (WMSE) (talk) 10:18, 17 June 2015 (UTC)

Breast feeding maps

Data is over 5 pages here [90]. Would love it to look like this [91]. The odd missing data point is here [92] Let me know if you can do this? Additionally the WHO has come out with 2012 DALYs by country. James Heilman, MD (talk) 22:15, 12 July 2015 (UTC)

By the way is their a spreed sheet one can enter data into that than produces a map based on that data? I know you had one before. 22:19, 12 July 2015 (UTC)

Created a map here [93]. But not as good as you make. James Heilman, MD (talk) 22:46, 12 July 2015 (UTC)

This mouse over would be a nice effect for maps [94] James Heilman, MD (talk) 22:55, 12 July 2015 (UTC)

I'll take a look and see what I can do. The spreadsheet solution requires that I run it on a different computer (which I'm not bringing to Wikimania) since it relies on features not available in the newest LibreOffice. I might give mw:Extension:Graph a try though since that would be a neater way of generating them (see e.g. mw:Extension:Graph/Demo#Maps). If that works it should also be readily reusable for the DALY data. /Lokal_Profil 10:33, 13 July 2015 (UTC)

@Doc James: Here is a quick mock-up of the breast cancer data using the graph extension mw:User:Lokal_Profil/maptest. /Lokal_Profil 19:17, 19 July 2015 (UTC)

@Doc James: Ok so I took this the full mile. mw:User:Lokal Profil/maptest/DALY/template is a template which you can use (for now only on mediawiki.org) to generate a map of the 2012 DALY data. E.g. mw:User:Lokal Profil/maptest/DALY for female+Syphilis =). Colours etc. can be. /Lokal_Profil 22:11, 19 July 2015 (UTC)

Wonderful thanks. Great meeting you. Will work on it when I get home. James Heilman, MD (talk) 16:12, 20 July 2015 (UTC)

Ok. The map currently only works on mediawiki.org but copying the needed info across to another wiki shouldn't be to much trouble. /André Costa (WMSE) (talk) 14:52, 23 July 2015 (UTC)

Okay looking at the breastfeeding map. Need a scale. How do I create one?

Looking at this [95]. It works great. Any way we could get the output as an svg such that when I put my cursor over a country the underlying data point appears? Before I begin creating maps for all the conditions this would be nice. User:Yurik great extension :-)

We are looking at 489 maps for DALY (163 both sexes, 163 male, 163 female). Wondering if their is a way to create them automatically? If I am required to do them one by one will likely just do both sexes together.

By the way can we use the same colors as the previous DALY maps seen here? Right now the maps appear to use 20 colors? Do we need that many? James Heilman, MD (talk) 23:26, 23 July 2015 (UTC)

I played around a bit with mw:User:Lokal Profil/maptest to try and get legends. Different types of scales give different legends though. Take a look and see which you prefer.

I also switched that one to the same colour set as before (can easily be done with the DALYs as well)

Since the maps are now templates instead of files there is no such thing as pre-generating them. Adding something like "{{User:Lokal Profil/maptest/DALY/template|sex=any|GCEcode=5}}" should simply display the map. So adding male+female+both would simply be three such calls.

There should be a way of getting a tooltip with the data value using something like the below. But it doesn't seem to be activated in the Graph Extension, or I'm doing it wrong. @Yurik: ? Either way generating a svg wouldn't necessarily help with this either.

    "signals": [
        {
            "name": "tooltip",
            "init": {},
            "streams": [
                {"type": "path:mouseover", "expr": "datum"},
                {"type": "path:mouseout", "expr": "{}"}
            ]
        }
    ],
    "predicates": [
        {
            "name": "ifTooltip", "type": "==", 
            "operands": [{"signal": "tooltip._id"}, {"arg": "id"}]
        }
    ],

/Lokal_Profil 12:05, 24 July 2015 (UTC)

I like the new colors. Is it possible to us the quantile scale but have one color for 0 to 9, another for 10 to 19, another for 20 to 29, etc? Otherwise the linear scale makes the most sense.

I guess the next question is should the scale occur in the picture? Or in the caption box? Would prefer to have the legend below the image rather than to the left of it. James Heilman, MD (talk) 12:45, 24 July 2015 (UTC)

Added it here [96] James Heilman, MD (talk) 11:12, 27 July 2015 (UTC)

Sorry, just saw this. Very impressive maps! The animation is not enabled on mediawiki yet due to me being 200% swamped with tile maps & Zero. So wish I had a clone or two :) James, its an interesting approach - to copy the png into commons from graph. I think it should also be possible to clone the data and the template/lua to all wikis that need that data with a bot, and use it from the articles. This way you could customize some aspects at the last moment, like localize the labels. Yes, not as clean as including an image from commons, but at least its a dynamically rendered graph. Lokal, your graphs are live, not images - not yet sure how you hacked Vega to always be enabled, will try to look at it the moment I find a spare minute )). Thanks for trying it out! --Yurik (talk) 22:24, 5 August 2015 (UTC)

Thanks User:Yurik. Let me know when you have got this fixed. Yes would love to have the graphs rendered right in Wikipedia the same as they are on mediawiki. Would this make mouse over for extra data easier? One would not need a caption with data if mouse over was possible. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 15:18, 9 August 2015 (UTC)

Antarctica

Your illustration here should perhaps be revised. Norway has this year formally extended en:Queen Maud Land clear "to and including" the South Pole. According to the treaty, no new claims were to be made later than 1959. This new claim may or may not be quietly accepted by the rest of the countries involved; one should perhaps wait and see.

Should the last bit be coloured in the same way as the previous one or should I rather give it a new colour (since I guess technically it could be disputed). Do you also know if the border was extended to the polar circle (similar to the claims of other countries). /Lokal_Profil 14:42, 15 October 2015 (UTC)

User:André Costa (WMSE) the license was not transcluded in the image and files ended up in Category:New uploads without a license. User:YiFeiBot that adds the images there, just finds all imaged not showing license template and does not differentiate between the cases when license is missing and when license is just not displayed because it can not be parsed correctly. I verified that license did not show, before alerting the uploder. --Jarekt (talk) 15:38, 6 November 2015 (UTC)

@Jarekt: Since the bug was due to multiple templates I guess template transclusion probably stopped, thus not showing the license. Anyhow thanks to you spotting that I spotted the error in my code so thanks =) / 15:51, 6 November 2015 (UTC)

Princes Bernadotte

Here is a quote from the letters patent where the Grand-Duchess of Luxembourg created Sigvard Prince Bernadotte, Carl Johan Prince Bernadotte and Lennart Prince Bernadotte in the nobility of Luxembourg, giving them and their descendants (in addition to the personal title of Prince Bernadotte) also the title of Count of Wisborg.

Regarding their arms: Et afin que les dits Princes et Princesses Bernadotte et Leurs descendants jouissent sans trouble de la qualité de Nobles de Notre Grand-Duché de Luxembourg et de titre de Comte et Comtesse de Wisborg que Nous Leur avons conféré, et usent des armoiries telles qu’elles sont décrites et figurées au prédit arrêté du 2 avril 1892: Tiercé au pair le patté d’or renversé; à dextre, tiercé en bande d’azur, d’argent et de gueules en gerbillon d’or lié et enrubanné de même; à senestre, d’azur au pont de trois arches d’argent, supportant deux tours et mouvant d’une rivière de même, surmonté d’une aigle de sable empiétant un foudre d’or en fasce et accompagnée en chef de sept étoiles de même, figurant la constellation de la grande ourse; en pointe, d’azur, à l’agneau pascal passant d’argent; l’écu surmonté de la couronne ducale telle qu’elle est portée actuellement par les Princes et les Princesses Bernadotte, laquelle pour Leurs descendants sera remplacée par une couronne de Comte;

Thus, for them we need a ducal crown as styled in BeNeLux over this shield.

They were reinvested with the Order of the North Star in Sweden, but not until 1952, so it would not be needed to show these arms from 1951, as granted in Luxembourg, with that chain around the sheild --SergeWoodzing (talk) 22:33, 22 April 2016 (UTC)

Översättning i Template:PD-old

Hej Lokal_Profil. Jag har en fundering om mallen {{PD-old}} och delar av den svenska översättningen av den. På svenska lyder en mening "Observera att i en del länder förfaller upphovsrätten längre än 70 år: Mexiko har 100 år, Jamaica har 95 år, Colombia har 80 år, samt Guatemala och Samoa har 75 år". Kanske har översättaren förväxlat ordet "förfaller" med "förefaller", vad vet jag. I vilket fall som helst kan upphovsrätt naturligtvis inte "förfalla längre än", så jag undrar om texten inte hellre borde lyda "Observera att i en del länder förfaller upphovsrätten senare än efter 70 år […]" alternativt "Observera att i en del länder förfaller upphovsrätten efter längre tid än 70 år […]" istället. Mallen är skrivskyddad. Jag är förvisso byråkrat på Wikispecies, men här på Commons har jag bara användarrättigheter för autopatrullering, och kan därför tyvärr inte göra ändringen själv. Vad tycker du – bör texten korrigeras?

Hej Lokal_Profil. Jag laddade upp ett porträtt av mig själv för ett tag sedan (File:Jin Zan.jpg), och nyligen ångrat mig av säkerhetssjäl. Jag tror att det är bättre för mig att vara anonym. Jag skulle vilja att du raderar den. Tack! -- Jin Zan (talk) 12:46, 5 May 2016 (UTC)

Brådis!

I have really screwed things up here as you can see, trying to make SVG's myself by using a googled conversion tool I'll never try again. I promise. Since then I've found exact images of his coronet. The correct coronet needs to be done up nicely as an SVG asap according to those images. Please e-mail me so I can send them to you! Brådis! --SergeWoodzing (talk) 10:28, 21 May 2016 (UTC)

Giula Grisa

Hello. I think your picture does not show Giulia Grisa as Norma, but as Semiramide. Today I have uploaded a very similar picture from Pipers Enzyklopädie des Musiktheaters, where it is clearly stated:

• 
  Giulia Grisi som Norma
• 
  Rossini - Semiramide - Giulia Grisi as Semiramide - lithograph after a drawing by Alexandre Lacauchie

As your picture is stated to come from gallica, it might now be this one: [99]. But there is no mention of Norma. Where did you get this information from? --Rodomonte (talk) 14:04, 30 June 2016 (UTC)

Also Norma is a priestess, not a queen like Semiramide. There are pictures of Giula Grisi in that role. Note the wreath instead of the crown:

• 
  Engraved portrait of opera singer Giulia Grisi, dressed to perform "Norma" (1844)
• 
  Giulia Grisi as Norma, colored engraving by Louis Maleuvre]]

--Rodomonte (talk) 21:35, 30 June 2016 (UTC)

/If I remember correctly I only transferred the image from another Wikipedia (likely Swedish), so I don't have any further info about why it says Norma. So if you have sources indicating the naming is wrong I would go ahead and change the description and suggest a renaming of the image. Thanks for being vigilant =) /Lokal_Profil 13:29, 4 July 2016 (UTC)

WHO 2012 maps

Doc James noticed an update I'd done to one of your WHO 2004 maps and asked me if I'd be willing to do the other maps with 2012 data. I'm willing to give it a go but as you're still actively maintaining others I thought you might want to do it yourself. But if you're happy to share the work load, I'm happy to try.

Hi. I stopped generating the svg maps since the new Graph extension can do largely the same thing (see #Breast feeding maps above).

Gamla svenska kommunvapen

Hej! Jag märkte att du har ritat bilder av många gamla kommunvapen i Sverige. Artikeln i sv-wiki som innehåller svenska kommunvapen efter 1952 saknar ännu några vapen. Jag hittade bilder eller beskrivningar över dem och skrev om saken på den här sidan. Bild av Västlands vapen hittar man här. Där finns också Vendels vapen fastän artikeln i sv-wiki påstår att Vendel inte hade något vapen. Om du har tid kunde du skapa ännu de vapen som saknar?

@Raksa123: Hej. För Vedels kommun skulle det hjälpa om jag även kunde ha en blasonering. Om jag enbart har en bild så kan jag inte skapa ett fritt bild av vapnet. Jag skulle kunna skapa en tolkning utifrån beskrivningen på Tierps sida (och bilder från Historiska museet[100][101]) men även det är problematiskt. /Lokal_Profil 10:10, 2 September 2016 (UTC)

Sweden-Switzerland bilateral relations map

New map

Hey' I've created an article regarding the topic of the two countries' relations. I saw you know to create bilateral locator maps. Since I don't know to draw them, it'd be fantastic if you can make a Sweden-Switzerland locator. I'm talking about this kind of maps. Thanks a lot! CNR (talk) 18:25, 27 March 2017 (UTC)

Relicensing File:Ventral-dorsal streams.svg?

I am reviewing a paper (no public version available yet) in which a modified version of File:Ventral-dorsal streams.svg is included, which would make it CC BY-SA. The problem is that this is incompatible with the journal, which licenses its articles such that they are CC BY 4.0 or compatible. So I see two options here: have the author go back to the drawing board and come up with a figure they can license compatibly, or you could make it available under CC BY. Would the latter be possible? Thanks, -- Daniel Mietchen (talk) 01:19, 4 April 2017 (UTC)

Good afternoon,

I would like to publish a modified version of your map of Canada. Our editors require a slightly different creative commons attribution license (your work would, of course, still be acknowledged). Please let me know if this is something you're willing to discuss. I can be reached at sparkles.and.doom [at] gmail [dot] com.

Edit to add: As with the Ventral-dorsal streams.svg request above, the journal to which we are submitting our article requires CC BY 4.0. — Preceding unsigned comment added by SparklesAndDoom (talk • contribs) 22:25, 11 April 2017 (UTC)

P.S. Is there a better way to contact you? I looked for an email address, but couldn't find one.

Apologies for the tardy reply. While I'm happy to dual license the image as CC BY 4.0 it is derived from another CC BY-SA image (png original) so you would also need that creator to agree.

The easiest way (other than leaving a message on the discussion page) is to use the "Send email to user" button on the left. Note that this requires that both you and the user have supplied and validated your e-mail addresses and allow such communication. /Lokal_Profil 14:04, 13 April 2017 (UTC)

Template:BBR

Hi, since I'm not an admin and this template is write-protected I'd like to make you aware that it is right now not working the way it was intended to. First of all it puts everything in "Category:Listed buildings in Sweden with known IDs" and secondly links to kulturarvsdata.se from non-listed buildings is not working. To clarify: there are non-listed buildings as well which have info in "Bebyggelseregistret" and they should not be treated as listed buildings here on commons. Best regards, Vogler (talk) 17:43, 22 December 2017 (UTC)

@Vogler: If you want the template to not categorise the images you can use it together with the category= parameter which eliminates the automatic categorisation. I didn't understand the issue with the kulturarvsdata.se links, would you mind clarifying? /Lokal_Profil 08:55, 22 January 2018 (UTC)

I think it makes more sense if the template automatically refrains from putting the image in Category:Listed buildings when the A-parameter is set.

Here are two examples how the template inserts wrong category and links to kulturarvsdata:

• File:Frölunda torg - kmb.16001000010911.jpg
• File:Marstrand 32-1 RA 10157700320001 IMG 9641.jpg

/Vogler (talk) 03:18, 25 January 2018 (UTC)

Apologies for misunderstanding/misremembering (A is an allowed value for other parameters as well). Yes for the type=A you are right that it should not be in the listed buildings in Sweden category. I've updated the template to reflect this.

As for the broken links that is sadly unrelated to the protection status. For File:Frölunda torg - kmb.16001000010911.jpg the link goes to http://kulturarvsdata.se/raa/bbra/html/21310000000827 but should point to http://kulturarvsdata.se/raa/bbr/html/21310000000827. This is due to the Heritage board changing how identifiers were implemented at some point. The template tries to make an educated guess about which of the two links to use but there is sadly no way of being 100% sure. /Lokal_Profil 21:12, 25 January 2018 (UTC)

@Artoxx: The desription says it's only accurate up til 2008. As such it makes more sense to not include post 2008 features on the map. If the map includes any post-2011 data then the description should be updated and I can try to redo it with File:BlankMap-World6.svg as a base. /Lokal_Profil 21:08, 24 February 2018 (UTC)

I think this map can be updated, as its title doesn't have a fixed date, unlike the other very similar maps with fixed dates, and does not need too many updates (if starting from scratch is too detailed and time consuming). There is even a source with a world map showing LDS (Mormon) temples which function, are under construction and are planned (interestingly even in this map, South Sudan is missing.)

Wiki Loves Monuments ti aspetta, con centinaia di nuovi comuni fotografabili

Concorso Wiki Loves Monuments Italia 2018 (English version)

Gentile Lokal Profil, ti ringraziamo ancora una volta per la tua passata partecipazione a Wiki Loves Monuments (WLM). Il più grande concorso fotografico del mondo si svolge anche questo settembre per documentare e promuovere il patrimonio culturale italiano, con una licenza copyright libera.

Quest'anno è doppiamente facile partecipare: gli oggetti fotografabili coprono quasi 1000 comuni in più, grazie all'adesione di centinaia di nuovi enti fra cui Roma, e alla possibilità di fotografare circa 2000 alberi monumentali. Controlla le liste di monumenti fotografabili! Carica tutte le foto che hai e magari organizza una visita presso i monumenti che ancora non hanno una foto.

Quest'oggi il Parlamento europeo ha respinto la proposta di estendere la libertà di panorama. E allora scattiamo e pubblichiamo tutte le foto che possiamo, almeno per questi monumenti per cui ci è legalmente consentito!

Grazie, Nemo 16:06, 12 September 2018 (UTC)

Hello.

The File:Map of USA highlighting european minority.svg which you uploaded needs to be updated, because Nevada became a majority-minority state in 2016, and thus needs to be colored in red.

Coronets are not crowns

Hello! Please recategorize some of the images that you recently have classified as crowns. They are coronets, not crowns, and there are accurate categories for them. Thanx! --SergeWoodzing (talk) 23:57, 21 November 2018 (UTC)

Hellooo! --SergeWoodzing (talk) 09:43, 24 November 2018 (UTC)

I would need a little more indication of which you thing were wrong. On the Swedish category tree all I did was add a few which hade only been in the "SVG..." category before (it is not a true subcategory), that category already contained subcategories for some of the coronets. In general the distinction doesn't make sense for all languages since many use the word "crown" for either. Also, relax, 3 days is not enough to start rudly shouting for something which is not an ongoing emergency. /Lokal_Profil 20:08, 30 November 2018 (UTC)

In English, a crown and a coronet are 2 distinctly different things. In Swedish krona means both, and there is no word for coronet at all. So when we write in English we should not interchange the two incorrectly. Whatever any of us can do (you, me, anyone) to do that right is good for this project. I'm sorry that you want to accuse me of being rude and shouting. I saw you were still active, was worried that you'd categorize even more coronets as crowns, & didn't think you were going to bother with this, so I got impatient. I'm sorry about that too. --SergeWoodzing (talk) 10:10, 1 December 2018 (UTC)

Also, though I don't think you started this either, we have fake English words like "countly" (grevlig = comital in English), and whatever we can do not to spread such things is great. --SergeWoodzing (talk) 10:15, 1 December 2018 (UTC)

Again, please recategorize some of the images that you recently have classified as crowns. They are coronets, not crowns, and there are accurate categories for them. --SergeWoodzing (talk) 09:39, 5 December 2018 (UTC)

Tips

Hej, skulle vilja tipsa om denna sida, dvs om du inte redan har koll på den? :-) Många (typ 99%) av de heraldiska vapnen har du redan täckt in. En jag dock kan identifiera som saknad är Flygvapnets officershögskola. God jul :-) //Joshua (talk) 22:51, 15 December 2018 (UTC)

Hej. Kul att den finns online. Jag har en självinskannad version som jag försökt beta av under åren. Just Flygvapnets officershögskola skippade jag eftersom den inte är ett "rent vapen". Dvs. blasoneringen beskriver inte inehållet direkt utan hänvisar till specifika bilder (emblemet). Det går därmed inte att säga om det är en kunglig krona eller en aspirantkrona etc. Att bilden inte ligger på en sköld är dessutom lite småsuspekt (det sagt så är både LvKAS och Artilleriets officershögskola m.fl. från samma källa lika konstiga. Jag skulle inte vara förvånad om vapnet egentligen vara utformat som t.ex. detta för marinen eller om någon i efterhand kallat emblemet för ett vapen utan att det faktiskt funnits ett vapen. När de väl används så är det inte alltid så lätt att veta se t.ex. [102]. Vet inte om TFG 820086 finns tillgänglig online men skulle vara intressant att se vad den egentligen säger.

Hittar du andra där som jag missat (med undantag av fartygen där flera var för svåra) får du gärna flagga för dessa. Såg nu Flygvapnets tekniska skola som bör vara görbar. /Lokal_Profil 21:03, 24 December 2018 (UTC)

Hejsan. Gällande dom för marinen, som du länkar till, så har jag varit lite tveksamma till dom. Då den ena länken har ett silverfärgat ankar och den andra ett guldfärgat ankar. Skolan kan ju inte haft två vapen? Dock så misstänker jag att den ena färgen var ämnad för Marinens officershögskola i Göteborg. Dock så vet jag inte vilken som är till vilken, då jag inte funnit någon bra källa. Men jag återkommer om jag finner något som saknas, med undantag av fartygen, som kan vara gångbart att fixa =) //Joshua (talk) 22:35, 24 December 2018 (UTC)

Dené-Caucasian language family map

I really like the map you created for the Dené-Caucasian Language Family. It very effectively shows the likely spread of this language family. I was hoping to incorporate the map's information into some work that I'm doing, the quality of the map that's available is a little low. Is there any way that I could get the original .svg file of the map? If so, I would really appreciate it! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pearson152 (talk • contribs) 21:37, 5 October 2019 (UTC)

@Pearson152: Sorry for the delayed reply. I'm not the creator of that map (I'm credited as that of the underlying vector map). You should get in contact with one of the two users who've esited the map. Alternatively if you have the list of countries a vector map could be created pretty quickly. /Lokal_Profil 08:06, 21 November 2019 (UTC)

I have a question about the Dene-Caucasian map too. Is Burma/Myanmar included for a reason? I don't know of any language inside Myanmar that are considered to be in that group. Thanks! Kortoso (talk) 03:14, 16 June 2020 (UTC)

LSH

Hi. I am trying to upload a couple of pictures from lsh.se, but I seem to be having difficulties finding the publish date. Having noticed that you created the LSHuploadBot, I was wondering whether you could possibly add these two images[103][104] to the upload queue, or alternatively, whether you are aware of the existence of a script that could automate the upload. Tips on how to bypass some of the asked questions, such as authors, publish date, etc. are also welcome. Thanks. M.Bitton (talk) 23:12, 24 May 2020 (UTC)

Hi @M.Bitton: . Thanks for reaching out. Unfortunately my uploads were always done in collaboration with the museum so i got my data straight from the backend rather than having to extract it from the frontend. Since the museum had undergone organisational changes (being merged with two other organisations) there isn't currently an upload queue. If you are only missing the publish date then that might be available in there exif data. If you are missing mute info then I recommend getting in touch with the museum. If tou describe where you want to use the image they might even be able to upload the high resolution version. /Lokal_Profil 10:39, 7 June 2020 (UTC)

File:BlankMap-World-162E.svg

I have accidentally wrecked a file of yours: BlankMap-World-162E.svg. I ungrouped in order to split Sudan and South Sudan (the previous version has a border drawn on, but I wanted to make them separate objects). In ungrouping them, the masked areas to left and right have appeared. I am not sure how you did that masking, but if you know how to fix it, that would be welcome.

The same has happened to a derivative map, Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation nations.svg

Hogweard (talk) 12:55, 17 July 2020 (UTC)

@Hogweard: Since I'm note exactly sure what you did I'm not sure I can fix it (other than reverting). The original map was created using File:BlankMap-World.svg (which has since been updated with South Sudan and more) and the rotate function in the nugsl-worldmap script. Unfortunately the BlankMap-World.svg file has changed sufficiently that I cannot just stick the new one into the script and repeat the trick. I took a quick look at the script today to see if I could spot what had broken but non of the obvious fixes (such as the renamed ocean class could resolve it. /Lokal_Profil 20:40, 29 July 2020 (UTC)

Hello.

Can you add the border of South Sudan in File:World Association of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts map.svg which beacame independent in July 2011 and color it in orange (it is not part of the Arab World)? Unfortunately I cannot edit SVG files, that is why I asked you.

Göta artilleriregemente, A 2

Det är fel förbandsvapen i artikeln om Göta artilleriregemente. Regementsvapnets skall vara "Göta lejon", d.v.s. samma som i riksvapnet, inte Göteborgs stadsvapen (om än rättvänt). Det bör vara samma vapen även för S 2. M.v.h. Mandlit (talk) 18:07, 15 August 2020 (UTC)

Om Mörlundas vapen

Hallå igen! Först och främst borde jag kanske underrätta dig om att jag ännu inte hittat något nytt om Fiskeriverkets vapen. Internet förtäljde inget till mig; man får kanske helt enkelt erhålla information annanstans ifrån. Anledningen till att jag skriver till dig nu är för att rätta till vad jag personligen tror är ett missförstånd, som uppstått på grund av förvirring kring begreppet granskura. Jag skall framlägga mitt påstående utan vidare, och därefter följa det med uppgifter som jag hoppas stödjer min tes:

Skurorna i Mörlunda landskommuns vapen var osannolikt grantoppskuror.

Det stämmer å för sig att begreppet "granskura" idag ofta syftar på grantoppskuran. Men detta har inte alltid varit fallet, särskilt inte på 1950‐talet. 1959 stadfästes nämligen ett vapen för den finska kommunen Taivalkoski, vilket orsakade viss uppståndelse bland heraldiker. Varför? Jo, med vapnet godkändes nämligen grantoppskuran officiellt, och än värre var att den fick namnet "granskura", ett namn som dittills hade betecknat grankvistskuran. Jag skulle kunna kopiera vad heraldikerna då skrev, men tack vare internet kan jag istället direkt länka till deras artiklar i Heraldisk Tidsskrift:

• Mindre meddelelser (nr. 7, 1963), se Bo Tennbergs avsnitt Om svar anhålles
• ”Granskuran” i finländsk heraldik av Torsten G. Aminoff & Holger Tillisch (nr. 8, 1963)
• Granskurorna av Ahti Hammar (nr. 10, 1964)

Jag håller nödvändigtvis inte själv med om alla åsikter som framförs, men poängen med att dela dessa artiklar är att påvisa följande:

1. "Granskura" hade dittills avsett grankvistskuran.
2. Grantoppskuran var ett nytt påhitt som först vann officiell ställning i Taivalkoskis vapen 1959, och var kontroversiell.

Betänk då att Mörlundas vapen fastställdes två år tidigare. Då flera heraldiskt intresserade bidrog till tidskriften, som dessutom regelbundet rapporterade om nya kommunvapen i Norden, borde inte Mörlunda ha omnämnts i skuredebatten? Slutligen vill jag lyfta fram att jag hittat två andra avbildningar av vapnet i fråga utöver din egen, och båda dessa visar vapnet med grankvistskuror. Den ena återfinns i Per Anderssons Svensk vapenbok för köpingar, municipalsamhällen och landskommuner 1863–1970. Den andra visas på denna nätsida.

Det var allt jag ville få sagt denna gång. Jag önskar dig en trevlig måndagsafton. —VulpesVulpes42 (talk) 15:52, 2 November 2020 (UTC)

Vectorisation of images: can you help me?

Hi fellow Scandinavian!

I'm trying to find someone who can vectorise images (I don't know how to do that sadly). I'm asking you since you were in the category Wikigraphists. I would love to have three images vectorised. That is the following images:

1. Vectorise the star and circle in this image
2. Vectorise File:Flag of the Workers' Party of North Korea.svg and the star from the last picture?
3. Vectorise this image. It has the WPK hammer and sickle and the Central Committee building—its the official logo.

Ideally, these images would be of similar format to File:WPK symbol.svg.

Would you be willing to me this favour? If so, thank you very much in advance.--Ruling party (talk) 07:53, 20 February 2021 (UTC)

Hej. Jag gjorde just en variant av Bollnäs kommunvapen baserad på dina bilder. Har du lust att titta på den, och se att alla licenser etc ligger rätt, att du är ackrediterad rätt osv? Jag känner mig ny på den delen, och är angelägen att respektera rättigheterna. Tack! Det gäller alltså denna bild:

OJH (talk) 17:44, 16 July 2022 (UTC)

OJH, var vänlig och låt bli att ändra på vår sida med kommunvapen och de bilder som Riksarkivet fd heraldiska konstnär Vladimir Sagerlund ritat. Återställ gärna till hur det var.Riksarkivet Sverige (talk) 11:25, 18 July 2022 (UTC)

@Riksarkivet Sverige: OJH hade inte ändrat i något av era uppladdade vapen, däremot hade den nya bilden fått med samma kategori som era bilder (eftersom den delvis är härledd från er bild) vilket var anledningen till att den dök upp i ert flöde. Jag har återställt era ändringar men tagit bott kategorin.

@OJH: Tack för pingen. det finns några ändringar jag tror man skulle kunna göra för att förtydliga. Jag gör dem nästa gång jag är vid en stationär dator och lägger sedan en länk till diffen här, ställ gärna frågor om de olika ändringarna därefter så förklarar jag hur jag tänkt.

Ok, det blev så i all hast, men fortfarande (oinloggat) syns den nya bilden över Bollnäs fd kommunvapens historia i vår kategori (före Ale kommun), vilket vi önskar att den tas bort. https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Coats_of_arms_by_the_National_Archives_of_Sweden Vi har ju haft tidigare diskussioner om denna sida, vilket vi får fundera mer på hur vi kan lösa det framöver när vi fått vår nya statsheraldiker på plats.

@Lokal Profil: Tack, det blev ju betydligt bättre och jag lärde mig saker!

Nej, alt-texten fann jag inget fält för, och det är faktiskt ett misstag att den blev kvar där vid inklippning. Men om det är OK att låta den ligga så gör jag det. Allt gott i sommarvärmen!

@Riksarkivet Sverige: Som framgår ovan så har jag alltså inte ändrat i det material ni lagt upp. Däremot har jag använt det och gjort ett nytt verk. Den bilden hamnade en kort tid i det du kallar för ”er” kategori. Vad jag kan se nu finns den inte kvar där längre.

De vapenflaggor du laddat upp, med dimensionerna 313 x 313 har lite whitespace till höger och under, de är alltså inte helt beskurna, eller vad man ska säga, ”cropped”. Är det avsiktligt eller bara en miss? Jonteemil (talk) 08:56, 17 July 2022 (UTC)

Hej @Jonteemil.

Det är avsiktligt att det finns lite whitespace runt om bilden då det historiskt har varit ett problem att Delar av inehållet har blivit croppat om man lägger gränsen exakt utmed bilden.

Well, someone made it so that the pdf/djvu can show in the infobox with a selection of what to see there option, but other than that, until there is another "version" of that book in the Main, it really really (almost always) works better.

I see the "literary work" is complaining about there being a publisher there, but there was a first publisher and that is relevant, so, I think that complaint will go away. There are first publishers who are magazines for other works....

So, I am sorry(ish) to butt in. The simple explanation of what I did is above. If you have complaints, questions or insights or other, please share them. I too started at commons, it will be good to have another who is used to working with other wiki there.--RaboKarbakian (talk) 18:57, 10 September 2022 (UTC)

Also, this is an option as well:File:Star Lore Of All Ages (1911), 0013, title page.jpg--RaboKarbakian (talk) 19:04, 10 September 2022 (UTC)

No worries. I think the end result is pretty much the same thing. I'd started by creating an "edition" item on Wikidata and connected the scan to that. You changed the edition item to become a "work" item, then created a new edition item and pointed the scan to that.

The only thing to keep in mind is that you would also need to change the associated structured data see diff.

Thanks for the tip about the Image Page parameter. hadn't spotted that one. Lokal_Profil 19:42, 5 October 2022 (UTC)

Erroneous converson

Thank you for telling about Bengt Hallgren biskopsvapen.svg, there are some problems with different scripts and templates. I will work on them for a solution -- sarang♥사랑 05:26, 9 December 2022 (UTC)
