Vasil Nosi and Sokrat Dodbiba edit

Article(s): en:Sokrat Dodbiba and articles on the subject in other Wikipedias

Request: It would be great if the watermark could be removed; any other improvements that experts see as sensible would also be welcome! The local image for the subject currently in use on enwiki is unfortunately copyrighted in the US due to the URAA and will have to be removed, so this is the only one we have.

Watermark removal on File:Llazar Fundo ID.jpg edit

Article(s): en:Llazar Fundo and its versions on other language Wikipedias

Request

Watermark removal would be very much appreciated. This bears the only image of the subject I could find that is unaffected by URAA restoration. If it were possible to have a cropped version of the right-hand image without the top-right corner of the archive stamp, that would be even better! Felix QW (talk) 10:15, 4 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I've done my best on GIMP at File:Llazar Fundo ID (cropped and dewatermarked).jpeg, but I failed to properly remove the watermark on anything but the portrait photo or remove the stamp. I suppose the crop is serviceable for now though. Felix QW (talk) 07:40, 3 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Aurelio de Sandoval: Unfortunately, resolution cannot be improved without a new source. The image can be enlarged, but this is an artificial procedure that does not introduce any new information. If you want a better resolution, you need to search for such an image on the Internet. PawełMM (talk) 06:00, 3 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This is a candidate photo for quality images (see here). It needs perspective correction. Currently it is leaning quite severely. Could someone do this for me? I don't have much understanding of photo editing. I might not do it right! --S. Perquin (talk) 15:49, 6 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Request: This is a cropped version of File:Photographer Bruce Weber.jpg. This crop, however, still contains some other person in the background. I'm not sure whether those in the background need to be cropped out of the uncropped original photo due to COM:BLP or some other reason, but this other person isn't needed for encyclopedic reasons in English Wikipedia article about Weber; so, perhaps someone can crop them out as well. -- Marchjuly (talk) 00:39, 9 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@ReneeWrites: Hello, not yet done. GualdimG (talk) 07:19, 10 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@GualdimG: The watermark has been removed. It might still show up due to your browser's cache. If you open the page in an incognito window you can see it with a fresh cache. ReneeWrites (talk) 08:17, 10 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This is the only watermark that I continue to see. The others, even one later that you remove, I do not see it. GualdimG (talk) 09:54, 10 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Even in incognito mode? This is what it looks like for me: https://i.imgur.com/qg2luZV.png ReneeWrites (talk) 10:00, 10 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I can see now, in incognito mode that the watermark was removed. Thank you, GualdimG (talk) 10:15, 10 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

No problem. With caching issues you don't have to worry about the photo showing the watermark for other people. It's one of those issues that resolves itself in a matter of time. ReneeWrites (talk) 10:25, 10 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Perspective correction edit

The Crossing at River Lake apartment building in the neighborhood of Pocket in Sacramento, California.

Request: This is currently a QI candidate (see last photo here). If you zoom in on either apartment building, you'll see it's slightly leaning to the side; this is what the reviewer said.
