Why are you requesting for this image to be speedy deleted? pfctdayelise (translate?) 05:41, 17 February 2006 (UTC)

The center star is inverted in your 38-star concentric ring flag. The point should be upward, not downward like a pentagram. I have an 1885 photo showing this flag and the center star has its single point upward.

Hallo, hättest du Lust, auf deiner Öresund-Karte Brücke und Tunnel nachzutragen?! Außerdem hast du den größten Teil Kopenhagens als landwirtschaftliches Gebiet eingetragen. Nur Kristiania ist bei dir Stadt. Ob das wohl was zu bedeuten hat :). Gruß, Ulamm 16:35, 27 January 2008 (UTC)

Ach ist das schön, wenn mal ein Mensch freundlich nachfragt! Normalerweise bekomme ich in den commons nur Abmahnungen, weil ich mal wieder vergessen habe, meine letzte Versicherung, dass das Bild wirklich von mir ist, an die anscheinend monatlich wechselnde Syntax anzupassen.

Zu Deiner Frage: Eigentlich habe ich die Karte für ORP Orzeł gebraucht. 1939 gabs die Brücke und den Tunnel noch nicht. Wie groß damals die Städte waren, weiß ich nicht. Für mein Lieblingskind wollte ich lediglich illustrieren, wo z.B. welche Insel ist. Die meisten Städte sind in diesem Kontext nicht so wichtig. Der Name ist nicht ganz glücklich gewählt (new stimmt natürlich nicht). Wenn man "modernisieren" will, sollte man den bisherigen Stand in einen neuen Namen bewegen. Das polnische U-Boot hat einiges durchgemacht, unter der Brücke ist es aber definitiv niemals durchgefahren. Zum selben Projekt gehören z.B. auch Gdansk Bay Borderlines 1939 German.png, Gdansk Bay Details 1939 german.png oder Baltic Sea Borderlines 1939 german.png. Ich habe mir sogar die Mühe gemacht und versucht, den anderen Sprachen zu helfen: Gdansk Bay Borderlines 1939 Polish.png, Gdansk Bay Borderlines 1939 English.png, Gdansk Bay Borderlines 1939 blank.png und Baltic Sea Borderlines 1939 blank.png.

Meine Bemühungen sind sicherlich durch bessere oder genauere Karten ersetzbar. Ein Profi könnte meine laienhaften Versuche mit 20 Minuten Aufwand sicher ausstechen. Aber im Moment gibt es nunmal nix besseres zum Thema. Zum Vergleich nutzt die polnische Wiki lediglich Amager i Sund ubt 1 PL.png. Ich glaube wirklich, dass mein Ansatz gründlicher und im Grunde schöner ist.

In diesem Sinne hat das was zu bedeuten... :-) Gruß, Masturbius 00:35, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

There seems to be a problem regarding the description and/or licensing of this particular file. It has been found that you've added in the image's description only a Template that's not a license and although it provides useful informations about the image, it's not a valid license. Could you please resolve this problem, adding the license in the image linked above? You can edit the description page and change the text. Uploading a new version of the file does not change the description of the file. This page may give you more hints on which license to choose. Thank you.

File source is not properly indicated: File:Wilk-Class.jpg

This media was probably deleted.

A file that you have uploaded to Wikimedia Commons, File:Wilk-Class.jpg, was missing information about where it comes from or who created it, which is needed to verify its copyright status. The file probably has been deleted. If you've got all required information, request undeletion providing this information and the link to the concerned file ([[:File:Wilk-Class.jpg]]). If you created the content yourself, enter {{Own}} as the source. If you did not add a licensing template, you must add one. You may use, for example, {{self|GFDL|cc-by-sa-all}} or {{Cc-zero}} to release certain rights to your work. If someone else created the content, or if it is based on someone else's work, the source should be the address to the web page where you found it, the name and ISBN of the book you scanned it from, or similar. You should also name the author, provide verifiable information to show that the content is in the public domain or has been published under a free license by its author, and add an appropriate template identifying the public domain or licensing status, if you have not already done so. Warning: Wikimedia Commons takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

Tip: Categorizing images

---

Hello, Masturbius!

Tip: Add categories to your files

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

Here's how:

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

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

[[Category:Category name]]

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

[[Category:Astronomical diagrams]]

[[Category:Comets]]

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

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

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

Copyright status: File:HMS Bramham crest.jpg

This media may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading File:HMS Bramham crest.jpg. I notice that the file page either doesn't contain enough information about the license or it contains contradictory information about the license, so the copyright status is unclear. If you created this file yourself, then you must provide a valid copyright tag. For example, you can tag it with {{self|GFDL|cc-by-sa-all}} to release it under the multi-license GFDL plus Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike All-version license or you can tag it with {{PD-self}} to release it into the public domain. (See Commons:Copyright tags for the full list of license tags that you can use.) If you did not create the file yourself or if it is a derivative of another work that is possibly subject to copyright protection, then you must specify where you found it (e.g. usually a link to the web page where you got it), you must provide proof that it has a license that is acceptable for Commons (e.g. usually a link to the terms of use for content from that page), and you must add an appropriate license tag. If you did not create the file yourself and the specific source and license information is not available on the web, you must obtain permission through the VRT system and follow the procedure described there. Note that any unsourced or improperly licensed files will be deleted one week after they have been marked as lacking proper information, as described in criteria for deletion. If you have uploaded other files, please confirm that you have provided the proper information for those files, too. If you have any questions about licenses please ask at Commons:Village pump/Copyright or see our help pages. Thank you.
