Thank you for uploading some images!
Did you know that Wikimedia Commons recommends the SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) format for certain types of images? Scalable Vector Graphics are designed to look appropriate at any scale, and SVG images are easier to modify and translate, helping Wikimedia to distribute knowledge to all of the world. A lot of modern programs support SVG export. If you encountered problems or have questions, don't hesitate to ask me, a member of the Graphic Lab, or the Graphics village pump. Uploading images in SVG format isn't mandatory, but it would help. (To avoid any misunderstandings, please don't just put raster images into an SVG container as embedded raster.) Thanks, and happy editing!

Removal of depict statements
editHi Looperz, could you please provide for an explanation for these removals: [1], [2], [3], [4], [5], [6], [7], [8]. Regards, AFBorchert (talk) 07:57, 24 October 2020 (UTC)
- Of Course i can: Please just look at the state of the previous version: [9], [10], [11], [12], [13], [14], [15], [16] in all cases the "depicts" tag was set duplicate by a quickstatements batch of the user Spinster. The duplicate was, what i removed. --Looperz (talk) 08:08, 24 October 2020 (UTC)
- Thanks for pinging me. I apologize for creating these duplicate statements, that should not happen. I thought QuickStatements would not do that - I think it does not on Wikidata, but apparently it does on Wikimedia Commons. I have filed a ticket for it. Spinster (talk) 08:27, 24 October 2020 (UTC)
- Thanks for the explanation – I did not notice that these were duplicates. Regards, AFBorchert (talk) 13:56, 24 October 2020 (UTC)
