Hello, Bernard J. Noël!

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.

Why did you blank this page? If there was a permissions/copyright issue with the file you should state this or nominate the image for deletion.

Sfan00 IMG (talk) 11:53, 15 June 2010 (UTC)Reply

Hello Sfan00,

I never blanked that page. To the contrary I was hoping to use it to support the geological map of superficial formations of the Cap-Vert peninsula. The JPEG never showed up satisfactorily.

Yes, as this image could not be used, I would gladly propose it for deletion.

Cartes dont vous n'êtes pas l'auteur

Latest comment: 11 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

Bonjour,

Vous avez importé sur Commons des cartes dont vous n'êtes pas l'auteur. Si ceux-ci n'ont pas donné leur autorisation selon les conditions de Commons (toute réutilisation notamment) et que cela n'est pas prouvé, il serait alors nécessaire de supprimer les fichiers.

Merci par avance de votre réponse. kvardek du (la plej bela nombro) 21:47, 9 May 2013 (UTC)Reply

RÉPONSE:

Bonjour Kvardek,

et merci pour votre message et intérêt pour cette carte géologique.

Une carte de ce type n'a jamais un seul auteur de nos jours. Celle dont vous faites référence et quelques vingt-cinq autres enregistrées sur Commons, font partie des résultats du projet de « Cartographie géologique du Bassin sédimentaire du Sénégal » (CBS) sur lequel auront travaillé de 2007 à 2009, une douzaine d'experts internationaux, dont moi-même, ainsi qu'une dizaine d'experts sénégalais. Toutes ces personnes sont les auteurs, à des degrés divers, de la soixantaine de cartes et des trois notices résultant de ce projet.

Les droits de reproduction (Copyright, ©) appartiennent, depuis l’acceptation des résultats du projet, à la Direction des Mines et de la Géologie du Sénégal. Le Dr Moussa Sylla, alors Directeur des Mines et de la Géologie du Sénégal, m'a donné son "accord pour la publication des cartes géologiques du projet CBS avec un résumé des travaux, dans Wikipédia" le 30 novembre 2009.

Si vous le souhaitez, communiquez-moi une adresse courriel où je puisse vous transmettre le message d’accord du Directeur.

Sincères salutations,

B.J. Noël, 12 Mai 2013

Good day JuTa,

thank you for your communication and interest for this geological work.

The copyright of the works you are questioning belongs, since the acceptance of the Project results, to the Direction des Mines et de la Géologie du Sénégal. Dr Moussa Sylla, Directeur des Mines et de la Géologie du Sénégal, gave me his accord by e-mail on 30th november 2009, for the publicatiion of the geological maps of the CBS project and a summary of the works in Wikipédia.

Regards,

Bernard J. Noël 18th August 2013

Hi, I got your mail. You should forward it to the commons support team - see Commons:OTRS. But I can't see a release of the images under a free license i.e. {{Cc-by-sa-3.0}} or similar in the mail (my french is not very good). Mayb ou better ask th copight holder again explicitly under which free license he likes to publish his works. regards. --Ju Ta 13:42, 20 August 2013 (UTC)Reply

Yours sincerely, Eleassar ^(t/p) 09:29, 19 November 2013 (UTC)Reply

Good day Eleassar,

I regret to state that I understand too well what the fuss is about!

So the French law, or the Senegalese law, or the Yankee laws say that... but please realize that in the whole world laws are so numerous and so complex that, at any time, anyone can be reproached something!! I believe you may be staying in Slovenia. Did you country and society did not suffer enough of censorship during the communist rule? Would you really prefer to see it now replaced by United States dictatorship and thought control??

Judging at the continuous vanishing of images, the trend appears to move towards a Wikipedia with no picture at all! But make no mistake, when the images and pictures will be all gone, then the attack will be against the text, any form of free thinking text...

Now, to answer your remarks squarely: the "Projet de monument Renaissance" is mostly a photograph of a public poster describing the project while the monument itself is only shown by its basement and occupies only the top of the picture.

The "Renaissance africaine" is not really a picture of a work of art, but of workings, as a North-Korean company was then building this stalinian style and controversial monument. I also believe the picture marvelously describes the political situation then prevalent in Senegal: the family chief has no head while his partner and their child have theirs in full...

Finally I add what cannot be shown by the picture: that the whole group is not looking towards the North (former colonial powers) nor to the East (holy cities) but to the North-West: the all invading, overbearing and bankrupt United States...

Regards,

B.J. Noël
