Three images for review

edit

Dear Michael,

I reviewed all the Mushroom Observer images and nominated 7 of the remaining 8 images for deletion. I also reviewed many images from an African safari web site...but if possible please review these 3 images below...so that there is a second independent reviewer.

@Leoboudv: Great work! I reviewed the three files. Currently I'm working om GFDL-files: m:User:MGA73/GFDL files. --MGA73 (talk) 06:36, 20 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
And sad to see some Mushroom Observer images go but unless photographer agree to relicense we can't keep them. --MGA73 (talk) 06:40, 20 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
  •   Comment: Thanks for your help. In virtually all cases, the Mushroom Observer images were already not free with an NC license when they were uploaded to Commons. The Mushroom Observer site shows the date of license changes and the version of the license used at a certain time. The default license at MO is actually CC BY SA 3.0 Generic...unlike flickr.

Two or Three questions about an MO image and life in Denmark

edit

I don't use unapproved images on wikipedia.

  • As an aside on a personal note, is inflation a problem in Denmark after the covid era? In Canada and the US, buying homes is very difficult because a person's savings has been eroded by all the government expenditures during the covid era....which led to high inflation. If I had bought real estate in 2015, my house value would increased by more than 100% (or doubled in value) unlike my sister who got married in 2010 with a great white man and has 2 daughters now and of, course, had to buy a home in 2010...when homes were cheap in Canada up until 2016 or 2017. I still live with my father and am single at age 50. Inflation is one of the reasons why Biden is behind Trump in the US presidential polls right now. Inflation hurts the poor and middle class but the rich are not affected since they own many homes whose value is not hurt by inflation. Recently I saw this article saying that Gwyneth Paltrow is listing her California home Here for $30 million. But she bought it in 2012 for $9.95 million US. But California like Canada is experiencing a housing crisis and there are many people living in parks and RVs because even small condos are expensive. In Canada, people can only dream of even buying a home. Detached single family Homes are now almost for the rich. People think that Canada is a great country to visit and that is right with the mountains and lakes but its a hard country to live in. Few outsiders know that 20% of Canadians don't even have a family doctor as you can see in this Article. Canada may have free health care but if you don't have a doctor or primary care physician, it is not worth much. In Atlantic Canada where less Canadians live, up to 33% of people don't have a family doctor. So, Canada has a health care crisis too. I am just lucky I have a doctor in British Columbia, Canada.

Hello! Yes the ticket is okay now. It turns out he sent a new ticket using the correct email instead of replying to my mail. So you can use it!

Yes there are inflation in Denmark and prices for houses are going up. But many live in a rented home and everyone can get help paying rent if its a problem.

Wages also go up and there is free health care in Denmark and eveyone can get a doctor (perhaps not one close to you). So it is not that bad for most people.

I bought a house long ago so for me the housing prices is not a problem. It is harder for my son but it is easy to borrow money in Denmark (if you have a job). --MGA73 (talk) 08:28, 21 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

  • Thank You for your comments. I had sent an Email to G. Koller showing him my mistake in the Email permission address and suggesting he sent in a new Email permission to the correct VRTS permission address. As for myself, I can say that I wish I had bought a home 15 or 20 years ago when everything was cheap but as I have no wife or children unlike my sister, the only thing I could afford would be a one bedroom condo. And that does not include the utilities such as the elecric and water bills ever month. Secondly, I am an independent contractor who works in the private sector and I don't know how predictable my income is month tp month. You are fortunate that you have a son because I have no children or sibling except for my sister. My mum passed away in 2015 as this obituary shows I am amazed it is still online after so long. The rest of my family are back in Malaysia or in Australia. If you want to take a vacation, you can visit Malaysia as the currency there is very low in value and you can get a lot for your Danish currency in Kuala Lumpur, the capital. Many people speak English in Malaysia since it was a former British colony. Best Wishes, --Leoboudv (talk) 10:11, 21 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

Yeah I know. Kids can be a pain in the b*** but also they are great (most of the time). I have been working on files on mswikipedia some time ago so I have seen many photos from Malaysia. There are still work to be done there but I was hoping local admins would fix it :-) --MGA73 (talk) 10:27, 21 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

You can see ms:Pengguna:MGA73/Status and I was an admin there for some time lol. --MGA73 (talk) 10:30, 21 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
  • It is 3:42 AM in Vancouver and i have to sign off. I hope most Malaysians understand copyright. The uploader in this DR asked me to pass this image on my talkpage. I had 2 images of his tagged as copy vios and launched this DR to tell me what the rules were on Commons. Best, --Leoboudv (talk) 10:47, 21 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

Two Mushroom Observer DRs

edit

Dear MGA73,

I think these two Mushroom Observer DRs Here and Here can be deleted and replaced by my suggested replacement images sadly. But it is up to you to decide here. Best, --Leoboudv (talk) 10:11, 28 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hi Leoboudv! I was too slow but someone else fixed! --MGA73 (talk) 06:17, 2 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

Dear Michael,

Can you kindly review this rare fungus please?

Unfortunately, I had to crop this photo. Best Regards, --Leoboudv (talk) 09:23, 14 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

@Leoboudv: Sure. In future you can just upload original wait 1 minute for the bot to review and then crop on top :-) --MGA73 (talk) 10:10, 14 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
