Thanks for uploading Image:Qiandaohu.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is therefore 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.

ACC project

This is the Commons:Ancient Chinese characters project's tutorial for creating SVG scalable images from orginary gif files for the project.

Selecting the source images

1. Choose a Chinese character, Japanese Kanji or Korean Hanja that has not been converted to SVG before or which might be done somewhat better.
2. Pick up one or even all of the images for the styles seal, bigseal, bronze and oracle:
3. Find data and pictures of the character in question at Chinese Etymology (Richard Sears allowed use of his data)
4. Select the to you most interesting picture of a given category and download it to your computer.
   • For each style, save the selected gif or png image on you computer. To distinguish between them you may follow this naming convention:
   • oracle => *-oracle.gif / png
   • bronze => *-bronze.gif / png
   • bamboo and silk => *-silk.png
   • bamboo and slip => *-slip.png
   • seal => *-seal.gif / png
   • bigseal => *-bigseal.gif

Please keep the code name of the images, i.e. "J12333" in J12333.gif, this will be needed later.

Conversion from gif to SVG format

Conversion using Inkscape

Follow these steps to convert the gif image to SVG, e.g. *-seal.gif to *-seal.svg. For more information, please see the detailed picture guide below.

1. Paste the gif image file into Inkscape and set the page size to 300px × 300px.
2. Scale the gif image to 300px in height, uniformly, that is preserving its original proportions.
3. Select > Path -> Trace Bitmap from the tool bar (Shortcut: Shift + Alt + B)
4. Run a Single Scan either with Brightness cutoff = 0.950 or Color quantization = 2
5. Retouch the path to make up for the gif file's low quality and correct obvious mistakes
6. Enlarge the SVG path so that it has a height of 290px, again uniformly to preserve the original proportions.
7. Center the SVG image relative to the page by selecting > Object -> Align and Distribute from the tool bar (Shortcut Shift + Ctrl + A). Do this vertically and horizontally.
8. If everything went well, then you can delete the underlying gif image which is still there under the path.
9. Save your file according to the naming convention, e.g. *-seal.svg, where * is the character you looked for in step 1.

Detailed picture guide

Steps described using Inkscape

Before post-edition

After post-edition

Please see this tutorial or click on the thumbnail on the left side for a detailed step-by-step tutorial on how the conversion is done.

Creating SVG files is really important since SVG is scalable, while gif is not. Converting these images to SVG is really easy even with no experience in image manipulation, and Wikimedia benefits greatly from your work. Thank you for your contribution.

After the usual learning curve (about five characters), it will usually take from three to five minutes to convert a single character with shape improvements. Of course complex characters may need a little more attention and simple ones (like the one in the example image above) may need a little less attention.

Post editing

The automated result is generally messy. Sometime that is good enough, sometime the picture needs improvement :

• Add a control point at the end of the character lines, and make sure that it is not an angle point.
• Add an angle control point where two lines intersect, and make sure the tangents are in the correct directions.
• Separate the lines where two lines have been merged.

Conversion using potrace

Inkscape is not the only program allowing to convert raster images to vectorial images. Another program which gives good results is 'potrace'. 'potrace' can convert 'bmp' images to SVG and is scriptable under Linux. So you could convert the GIF to BMP using ImageMagick convert and then the BMP to SVG using 'potrace'.

A sample Shell script taking the base GIF file name as argument follows:

convert $1.gif $1.bmp
potrace -s $1.bmp

The Linux tutorial describes how to automate the task of generating centered SVG files from the GIFs.

Upload to Wikimedia Commons

The ACClicense template

Upload the converted gif file to Wikimedia Commons and use the ACClicense-Template as follows:

Set up an "universal" template for ACC project, with accurate descriptions matching the data (© 2003 Richard Sears) from www.internationalscientific.org.

When you upload an SVG ancient Chinese character, please copy paste this "ACClicense" template such as :

• {{ACClicense|字|oracle|shang|strokes=|component1=}} (for Shang oracle images)
• {{ACClicense|字|oracle|zhouyuan|strokes=|component1=}} (for Zhouyuan oracle images)
• {{ACClicense|字|bronze|western|strokes=|component1=}} (for Western Zhou bronzeware images)
• {{ACClicense|字|bronze|shang|strokes=|component1=}} (for Shang bronzeware images)
• {{ACClicense|字|bronze|spring|strokes=|component1=}} (for Spring and Autumn bronzeware images)
• {{ACClicense|字|bronze|warring|strokes=|component1=}} (for Warring States bronzeware images)
• {{ACClicense|字|slip|chu|strokes=|component1=}} (for Chu slip images)
• {{ACClicense|字|slip|qin|strokes=|component1=}} (for Qin slip images)
• {{ACClicense|字|silk|chu|strokes=|component1=}} (for Chu silk images)
• {{ACClicense|字|silk slip|strokes=|component1=}} (for other silk slips)
• {{ACClicense|字|seal|strokes=|component1=}} (for Shuowen seal images)
• {{ACClicense|字|ancient|strokes=|component1=}} (for Shuowen ancient images)
• {{ACClicense|字|zhou|strokes=|component1=}} (for Shuowen zhou images)
• {{ACClicense|字|odd|strokes=|component1=}} (for Shuowen odd images)
• {{ACClicense|字|liushutong|strokes=|component1=}} (for Liushutong / Big seal images)

Parameter	Mandatory?	Meaning
1	Mandatory	The character being described. This character becomes a category. To avoid that categorizing, use cat=r with parameters 6 and stroke.
2	Mandatory	The type of script. May be one of : oracle / bronze / seal / bigseal.
3	Mandatory only for oracle and bronze	The time period of unearthed characters (oracle, bronze, slip, silk). Oracle, slip and silk will be auto-filled, so this parameter is just for bronze. May be one of: shang (for Shang oracle or Shang bronzeware) zhouyuan (for Zhouyuan oracle) west / western / western Zhou / Western Zhou / zhouyuan (for Western Zhou) spring / spring and autumn / Spring and Autumn (for Spring and Autumn) war / warring / warring states / Warring States (for Warring States).
4	Optional	The code name of the former GIF image in Richard Sears. It is not required, but welcome if your source is Richard Sears.
5	Optional	For various comments, if needed. But linguistic informations are not welcome: other websites provide such datas with more accuracy than us.
6 rad	Suggested *	Enables categorization depending on the system of the 214 traditional Kangxi radicals; it can be coded as a three-digit number, e.g. 078 (leading zeroes are not necessary and may be omitted).
7	Optional	For free comment (Kangxi variants).
8	Optional	Enables categorization (only to use if the character belongs to the 540 ancient Shuowen radicals, or their variants); it should be coded as a three-digit number, e.g. 078.
9	Optional	For free comment (Shuowen variants).
kaiOrder	Optional	The Kaishu number of a character in Sinica Database which can be found in Sinica's URL. It is not required and only used when the character being described is different from the source.
fontcode	Optional	The code name of the former PNG image in Sinica Database which can be found in Sinica's URL. It is not required, but welcome if your source is Sinica.
draw<	Optional	Allows a classification of the glyph according to its strokes number, for comparison and research purpose. See the stroke tutorial if you intend to use it. This feature is automatically disabled for the Liushutong script, so please don't include this function when you upload -bigseal.svg files. See also Commons:Maint:ACC:NoDraw.
component1	Mandatory	Allows a classification of the glyph according to its components, for comparison and research purpose. It should be used for simple or compound characters. If no component is given, the character is indexed in the category:ACC needing decomposition category.
component2 to component6	Optional	The other components, used for compound characters.
permission	Optional	You can also provide your own free license(s).
strokes	Suggested *	The number of additional strokes; together with the radical number in parameter 6, used by Template:Rcat for categorizing.
cat	Suggested *	Set cat=r to use Template:Rcat for categorizing with parameters 6 and stroke; set cat=n for none. See also Commons:Maint:ACClicense for undefined categories.
var	Optional	Can be used when the character uses another radical variant, e.g. standard rad(66)=攴, var=攵.
i	Suggested * for SVG	To add the parameters for Template:Igen, e.g. i=I[nkscape]; i=P[otrace]. See also Commons:Maint:ACC:Unspec for undefined SVG tools.
*: it is recommended to provide these parameters.

The draw parameter tells the number of pen strokes needed to draw that character. The strokes parameter specifies the number of the additional strokes, when cat=r is coded.

You do not have to type anything else while uploading your picture as the license and description are automatically added by using this template!

The HTML form to be used is the basic form, which allows to enter the template above in the "Summary" field.

For the character used in the tutorial this would be:

{{ACClicense|木|oracle||j14138|strokes=4|component1=木}} because this character was found by searching Chinese Etymology for "木" and then using the oracle style picture provided there. The j14138 was the original file name of that picture, j14138.gif.

Note: {{ACClicense|木|oracle|oracle|j14138||075|strokes=4|component1=木|i=I}} would be correct, because

• 075 木 shows the traditional Chinese radical 75
• i=I the SVG image was created with Inkscape

To inhibit categorization, instead of strokes=4 it can be coded strokes=0|cat=r:

1. the template Rcat will check whether the category (in this case 木) exists; if not yet, the "redlink" categorization does not occur

(when later the category becomes defined, an 'empty' edit-save changes the categorization)

1. because ACClicense knows the stroke count of all radicals (木 consists of four strokes), just the number of the additional strokes must be specified - zero for images of radicals.

Identifying character components

Character components are used to classify the characters in the Category:Ancient Chinese characters by components.

The component1 to component6 parameters are to be chosen this way:

• Be sure to identify the component on the Ancient Chinese Character, which may be different from the modern one!
• Most of the time, each character component may be separately indexed. Some exceptions are:
  • If a compound character appears in several (let us say, more than five) ancient characters, it may have a category of its own and be indexed separately (in that case, the compound character category is itself part of its components' categories).
  • If a character is used in only one or two ancient character, there is no need for a separate category. In that case, the "Misc" component name must be used.
• If a component cannot be identified, do not skip it but replace it with a "?" component (question mark). Somebody else may know better while further browsing the Category:ACC containing ? and replace it by its value.

References

Also, we have to resize it with 270px high or 270px width, and no changes of the words only when the stroke looks very ugly. Chanueting 16:12, 9 May 2007 (UTC)

Tip: Categorizing images

---

Hello, PhiLiP!

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.

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.

It only accepts free content, which is images and other media files that can be used by anyone, for any purpose. Reproductions of copyrighted works are also subject to the same copyright, and therefore this file must unfortunately be considered non-free.

File source is not properly indicated: File:Roger Zou.jpg

This media was probably deleted.

A file that you have uploaded to Wikimedia Commons, File:Roger Zou.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:Roger Zou.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. Please add the required information for this and other files you have uploaded before adding more files. If you need assistance, please ask at the help desk. Thank you!

请教您所贡献的疆域类的文件是使用何种软件制作的？

您好，看到您贡献了很多“疆域”类的矢量图像，诸如右图等。

请教一下，您是使用何种软件制作的？是否方便传授制作方法。

非常感谢！

我来自中国大陆，英文不太好。为了尽量跟您交流通畅，现将以上中文通过谷歌翻译，呈现如下。因为是机器翻译，所以尽量保证所表达之含义正确，对您可能有失敬意，敬请原谅。

I come from PRC, do not understand English, in order to try to communicate with you as much as possible, I put the above Chinese through Google translation, see below. Because it is a machine translation, so try to ensure that the meaning is correct, may not be enough courtesy, Thank you for your forgiveness.

Hello, see you contribute a lot of "territory" vector images, such as the right one, and so on.

What software do you use? Can you teach me to make it?

thank you very much!
