Goodies, tips, and tricks Put Babel boxes on your user page so others know what languages you can speak and indicate your graphic abilities. You can find the files you have uploaded in your Uploads. Please sign your name on Talk pages by typing ~~~~. To link to an image page without embedding the image, type: [[:File:Foo.jpg]], which produces: File:Foo.jpg. You may enable gadgets (custom features) for your account. There are several tools to upload files. Have you edited Wikipedia before? This guide might be useful. Made a mistake? Do you want to have a file renamed or moved? Use the move link and wait for an authorized user to rename it. Do you want to have your recently uploaded picture removed?

Image

I made sure to check that nobody else had uploaded a new version of the Ophelia image, but I guess you uploaded at the same time (according to Navigation popups, the difference was only six seconds)... I deliberately uploaded a slightly old image because it is probably the best image we'll have while the system is near peak intensity. The infrared is okay, but compared to visible, the quality is far lower. I had intended to wait a couple more hours before switching to IR. Master of Time (talk) 20:49, 12 October 2017 (UTC)

I think the most recent IR one does show a larger and more developed eye in Ophelia. --Figfires (talk) 20:53, 12 October 2017 (UTC)

The difference is only thirty minutes between the first IR and the last visible (yet the eye looks considerably different between the two), so I think that may be distortion caused by using a different mechanism for creating images. Master of Time (talk) 21:19, 12 October 2017 (UTC)

Tagging copyvios

Hi, When tagging copyright violations, please inform the uploader. This is best done using the gagdet. See in your preferences to enable them, tab "Gadget", section "Maintenance tools" : "AjaxQuickDelete" and "Quick delete". These add links in the left column (or right column for Hebrew, Arabic, etc., language interface). Regards, Yann (talk) 14:15, 7 May 2019 (UTC)

Autopatrol given

Hello. I just wanted to let you know that I have granted autopatrol rights to your account; the reason for this is that I believe you are sufficiently trustworthy and experienced to have your contributions automatically marked as "reviewed". This has no effect on your editing, it is simply intended to make it easier for users that are monitoring Recent changes or Recent uploads to find unproductive edits amidst the productive ones like yours. In addition, the Flickr upload feature and an increased number of batch-uploads in UploadWizard, uploading of freely licensed MP3 files, overwriting files uploaded by others and an increased limit for page renames per minute are now available to you. Thank you. Abzeronow (talk) 17:48, 31 January 2024 (UTC)
