Quichot

If you have a question or an answer to a comment of mine here, please be so kind as to remind me on my Dutch talkpage: nl:Overleg gebruiker:Quichot, by inserting a comment like: "check your commons page", otherwise it might take me some time to answer. Thanks in advance!

From the villige pump:

update a ogg

(Excuse me for my English)
I've uploaded a .ogg yesterday () and noticed afterwards it's the wrong one. How can I replace it with an updated one, its ready on my computer, but I can't find a link or buuton on the page . And my upload-programma Commonist, doesn't do the trick either. Is ther a way to get rid of the old one and upload the new, or in one time replace it. Quichot 13:41, 12 March 2006 (UTC)

The current Commonist version doesn't support replacing files, so you will have to do it through the normal wiki Upload file interface listed in the toolbox. If a file with the same name exists, you will be asked if you really want to replace the file. The old file will still be available in the revision history, but Image:440 Achtkarspelen.ogg will always link to the latest revision. Newly registered users have to wait 4 days before being able to replace files. --Para 13:54, 12 March 2006 (UTC)

Thank you. I'll wait two more days then. Quichot 14:08, 12 March 2006 (UTC)

I left another comment. pfctdayelise (translate?) 08:35, 13 March 2006 (UTC)

copy from villagepump:

Well, my proposal was to create something like your gallery in place of any specialised category. So your page is a good idea and should be moved into the main namespace (like any other article, no special prefix). But the "gallery" feature is bad to use for media files. Better to use {{Audio}}, {{Audio2}} or just link to them like (you don't even need a colon for media files). Because the name is more informative than the speaker picture that the gallery displays. Also, just for future reference, usually for audio files I think they put the language code as a prefix in the name, eg. nl-029 Borger-Odoorn.ogg. pfctdayelise (translate?) 08:34, 13 March 2006 (UTC)

Pronunciation of Boxtel

I was going through and adding all the pronunciation files to all the Dutch municipalities and could not find one for Boxtel in Nord Brabant. Could you create one? Thanks. Rmhermen 16:10, 24 October 2006 (UTC)

Plaatsnamen

Is het echt nodig audiobestanden met de volkomen onbelangrijke uitspraak van Nederlandse plaatsnamen op de server te zetten? Ik vind het zonde van de ruimte. Floris V 00:36, 8 December 2006 (UTC)

Prima werk, Quichot. Niets mis mee. Wil je je uploads a.u.b. wel categoriseren? Groet, Siebrand 15:34, 9 December 2006 (UTC)

Wat fijn dat er zo vriendelijke gecommuniceerd wordt. Quichot 22:23, 9 November 2007 (UTC)

Hallo!

Bedankt voor het uploaden van plaatjes, foto's, enzovoort naar Wikimedia Commons. Houd er rekening mee dat afbeeldingen die geüpload zijn naar Commons bruikbaar moet zijn voor Wikimedia-projecten. Dit is alleen mogelijk als de afbeeldingen te vinden zijn!

Dit wordt mogelijk door de afbeeldingen te categoriseren, zodat deze te vinden zijn via het navigeren door de categorie structuur. Ook is het handig als u de afbeeldingen toevoegt aan onderwerppagina's (zie ook Commons:Categorieën). Om het gemak te vergroten van het vinden van de juiste categorieën bij uw afbeelding(en) kunt u gebruik maken van de CommonSense-tool. Een beschrijving bij uw afbeelding is ook van belang.

Een overzicht van de door u geüploade foto's vind u in uw eigen galerij.

Het belangrijkste is dus dat u ervoor zorgt dat uw foto's ergens in de categoriestructuur zijn terug te vinden. Er zijn op dit moment veel ongecategoriseerde afbeeldingen. Als u die wilt categoriseren zou dat enorm helpen. Alvast bedankt.

Hello!

Thank you for providing images to the Wikimedia Commons. Please keep in mind that images uploaded to the Commons should be useful to all users of Wikimedia projects. This is possible only if the images can be found by other people.

To allow others to find the images you uploaded here, the images should be in some place that can be found by navigating the category structure. This means that you should put the images into appropriate topic pages, categories, optionally galleries, or both of them (see Commons:Categories). To find good categories for your images, the CommonSense tool may help.

You can find a convenient overview of your uploaded files in this gallery.

The important point is that the images should be placed in the general structure somewhere. There are a large number of completely unsorted images on the Commons right now. If you would like to help to place some of those images where they can be found, please do!

Thank you. 78.49.175.110 19:49, 4 November 2007 (UTC)

Tip: Categorizing images

Hello, Quichot!

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.

Pronunciation Recording Gadget

Visual workflow draft for pronunciation recording gadget; If you have trouble watching this video here, watch it on vimeo. A more extensive/explanative version is available.

Hey Quichot, as a contributor of pronunciation audio samples, please share your opinion on the creation of a gadget guiding through the whole process (recording, uploading and inclusion) and, provided that you’ll attend Wikimania, please feel invited showing your interest in a proposal for a presentation that will cover the gadget for 5-15 minutes (depending on the audience).

Questions? Do not hesitate asking me on my talk page. Thank you.

File source is not properly indicated: File:056 Raalte.ogg

This media may be deleted.

A file that you have uploaded to Wikimedia Commons, File:056 Raalte.ogg, is missing information about where it comes from or who created it, which is needed to verify its copyright status. Please edit the file description and add the missing information, or the file may be deleted. 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!
