— Crisco 1492 ( talk) 23:56, 26 February 2015 (UTC)
Crisco, can I ask you to take a look at this one? It's intended for Black History Month, and the image hasn't been reviewed, nor has the new ALT hook. The image appears to be free in Canada, but I don't know whether that would apply to the U.S. as well, and since the Wikipedia servers are in the U.S., that might (or might not!) be an issue. (Another potential issues: whether it's clear enough at 100x100 to be worth running.)
If you could also check the hook, which does look okay, then if you can finish the nomination I can try to get it into a set on February 28. Many thanks! BlueMoonset ( talk) 02:24, 26 February 2015 (UTC)

Is this an acceptable license for use on Commons and/or Wikipedia?-- Godot13 ( talk) 03:00, 1 March 2015 (UTC)
Hi Crisco, you are active in WP:POTD and your username is listed there. I recently found out about the POTD project and all the awesome work that goes into it. I have made a similar template called POTX in my user space and thought to let you know. It is User:Bammesk/templates/POTX and has documentation describing it. I have been around for 2 years and focused on article space of musicians. Going forward I will not be active on Wikipedia, although I might edit once in a while. I may or may not have the inclination to keep an eye on POTX and the 31 images associated with it (which ideally should be changed once a month). Anyway, I wanted to let you know, and thank you for all the good work specially with featured pictures and POTD. Bammesk ( talk) 16:30, 28 February 2015 (UTC)
Crisco, I was wondering whether you could take a look at this one. It's now our oldest DYK nomination, and there have been issues with it since the beginning. Currently, it's down to two people: the nominee, Epeefleche, who seems to think that it should go ahead, and the reviewer, LlywelynII, who thinks it has a number of fatal flaws. If you could please check and see whether you think this is fatally flawed, severely flawed (in which case, after three months, it's probably time to close anyway), flawed but fixable without too much work, or basically there, that would be great. Many thanks. BlueMoonset ( talk) 19:52, 28 February 2015 (UTC)

I'm doing an image review for the FAC candidate "M-theory". The images used in the article have a host of problems, but one thing I'm not 100% certain about is the sourcing. Quite a few of the diagrams were made by editors and sourced as "Own work". I'm under the impression that if the diagrams are based on data, equations, concepts, or other illustrations, they should be sourced to an existing work. ("Own work" would still apply to the actual image, but citations need to be provided.) Do you agree with this interpretation? – Maky « talk » 20:38, 3 March 2015 (UTC)

We'd possibly like to use photos from a 1906-1907 UK trade journal article starts page 439. Some of the photos were taken by the journal-others are attributed to the "Builders Journal". I've tried to find out which "Builders Journal" this might be--no luck. None of the photos are credited to the person taking them. Know that the US copyright is over due to age. Can these be used with a PD-old tag or, because we don't know who took the photos, does anonymous come into play here? Thanks, We hope ( talk) 23:03, 4 March 2015 (UTC)
Yes, I have declared as well as undeclared ties with every scholar of world, with every citizen of universe and any one who is doing great work. I am here for the truth in a neutral way. Please be nice and think twice before you make any statement and unreasonable allegations on the people. I note that in the past also you had been unreasonable with Indian subjects!

Dear Shyamal - CCMB, IISC, AIIMS, IITs these are some of the top institutes of India. One will not focus and waste energy to write about unnoticeable and local colleges, which is any way not worthy for WP. This is just my beginning on WP, please give me time, you will see whole range of articles on Indian science and law subjects, hopefully all GA, sourced and making DYKs. Hope you understand and let me work here. I close this discussion with hope that the senior admins will help newcomers to do good work. Thanks. Educationtemple ( talk) 07:31, 7 March 2015 (UTC)
I humbly say that I came here on WP to learn how to write good English, how to present a subject and do research on it, and how to be in line with science and technology and current on going issues. My intention is certainly not to heart anyone, to even speak a single word against anyone and disturb anyone. I admire knowledge and I know editor like you and Crisco are here since decades, serving the community selflessly. You just taught me some good english in some edits that you did in Verma and I thanked you for the same.
If i had heart Crisco, my sincere apologies but it was not intentional. I did not like when he directly blamed me that I may have ties with Verma, without knowing my working style, that I always work step by step, one after other and I cant work on many things at a time. Hope it is OK.
I am now leaving for 2-3 days on an educational tour, so will not be available to reply. I apologized many times to my teachers in real life, you all are my teachers and I feel grateful if someone teach me something. How can I heart you here? Thanks and Cheers! Educationtemple ( talk) 08:04, 7 March 2015 (UTC)
Crisco is both a long term dedicted editor (his edit count hovers about 1,000 above mine and I have been here short of 10 years) and an administrator of wide experience - and if he says something, and you wish to argue with it, I would caution such a judgement - also the very notion that something is not worthy for WP is totally missing the point - this is an online encyclopedia - if something is notable (ie meets the WP:N criterion) and has adequate resources to back that up (in the form of WP:RS) - it may be of interest - it simply cannot be evaluated by the comment unnoticeable.. whis is any way not worthy - which is not how wikipedia works. See WP:ABOUT and WP:NOT if you need the reasoning and rationale explained.

about POTD archive, for example on this page [1] the August 1 and August 3 images are panoramic. Can I change their display parameters to |size=1200 |wide=yes ?

Crisco, I have no idea whether you'd want to wade into this one, which I happened on while assembling my latest list of old nominees.

I was wondering if you'd have time to do an image review at Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/M-theory/archive1? I did the original image review (as I mentioned earlier on your talk page), but I have become too involved in creating SVG graphics for the article and cleaning up the sourcing. Also, I'm not sure if one of the SVG files is appropriate, or whether it should be reverted back to the original JPEG version. In all, the images have come a long way, and it should be a fairly simple review. – Maky « talk » 21:46, 10 March 2015 (UTC)
Selamat sore. I've spent a bit of time rewriting war film which was both almost uncited and almost all-American. Yeah. It's a little more balanced now, but I'm struggling a bit with Indonesian cinema which I see you didn't think much of either.

I have some questions based on your comments on the Enthiran FAC. How do you verify that YouTube links are not copyright violations? Is it enough if the video comes from the official YouTube channel of author of the content? For image checks, I take it that the source must not be dead. How about an archive link? I am always leery of images that say "own work", so what is the threshold of documentation to make those acceptable? I ask because I just found one on Shah Rukh Khan. It says own work and it has the user/author's name on the picture, but the user is red-linked. Thanks, BollyJeff | talk 19:57, 11 March 2015 (UTC)

Hey, Crisco. Whenever I upload images that I've got TIFs for (like from LoC) I upload coversions to both PNG and JPG to Commons. The Upload Wizard won't let me upload images that have the same name but different file extensions, so I end up appending something ugly like "(compressed)" to the JPGs.

Crisco, this is an odd one. It appears that the author of some academic papers on the topic of Ideasthesia, perhaps even the person who came up with it, has written the Wikipedia article, which was listed as a GA earlier this year and nominated for DYK. There were some hook sourcing issues, which seem to have been addressed, but the article has been tagged with Primary and Confusing templates, and there seems to be a COI question in addition to the primary sourcing because the author's own papers are being cited.
I have no idea what would need to be done here, or if the templates, if appropriate, would indicate that the GA review should be revisited. (Having them there strikes me as an issue with approving the DYK nomination.) Thanks for your help here; I was pinged, but I've never had to deal with anything like this before, and don't know how it should be handled: as an admin, either you know how or probably know someone who would know how.

Not sure if a Request Edit is needed for images, which typically fall under non-controversial edits, but thought I would see [15].

Crisco, there's no rush on this since the nomination appears stalled for the moment, but the Tom Hallifax article has an image from Commons that was originally uploaded by the User:Hallifox account—the same named account uploaded the image to Commons in 2014 and added it to the Wikipedia article in 2015. Obviously, the Hallifox account would have to be Tom Hallifax's if this were to allowable, and furthermore It seems to me that this would need to have some sort of OTRS-filed permission from said artist to be sure the copyright is set. When you're back and recovered after your vacation, can you please comment at the nomination, and do whatever needs to be done at Commons? Many thanks, and I hope you're having a great time!

Crisco, saya lihat Anda juga suka menjadikan nama brosur sebagai referensi artikel. Apakah itu dibolehkan ? Bukti gambar brosurnya saja tidak ada. Ntar begimana cara orang ngecek apakah brosur tersebut ada atau tidak ? -- Erik Fastman ( talk) 13:42, 26 March 2015 (UTC)
Oh ya, kalo sumber buku kok pada bagian "Notes"nya dibagi per halaman. Sumber website aja isinya sampe bejibun sekalipun tetep dihitung satu sumber. Satu lagi, kalo link YouTube dijadikan sumber boleh nggak ? Misalnya link YouTube yang nampilin Full Movie untuk bagian "Plot" atau perfomance seorang artis gitu. Erik Fastman ( talk) 01:45, 27 March 2015 (UTC)

Oh ya, ada 1 pertanyaan yang belum dijawab: kalo sumber buku kok pada bagian "Notes"nya dibagi per halaman ? Sumber website aja isinya sampe bejibun sekalipun tetep dihitung satu sumber. -- Erik Fastman ( talk) 13:14, 27 March 2015 (UTC)
Oh ya, kalo untuk sumber yang tak diakses melalui internet seperti buku & brosur berarti mesti membeli/koleksi buku dari toko buku/penerbit atau minimal meminjam buku dari perpustakaan donk atau malahan jadi petugas perpustakaannya donk. Selain itu juga harus bolak-balik keluar masuk toko buku/perpustakaan donk. & berarti juga harus mengeluarkan uang juga donk buat beli atau pinjam bukunya, berbeda halnya dengan sumber dari internet. Mana mungkin kan kasih sumbernya gitu aja tanpa melihat isi bukunya apa. Ditambah lagi dengan pencantuman sumber artikel yang tentunya harus lebih dari satu sumber. Berarti yang kayak gitu enggak bisa dilakukan banyak orang yang kebanyakan cuman mengandalkan sumber dari internet. Terus juga Anda sering banget ke tempat wisata buat memfoto-foto gambar seperti yang diatas itu. -- Erik Fastman ( talk) 10:58, 28 March 2015 (UTC)
Aku jadi sempat kepikiran, Anda menyunting banyak apakah karena memang minatnya tinggi atau Anda diminta sama universitas terus seorang dosen menilai tulisan Anda ? Soalnya kebetulan di WBI pernah ada yang disuruh sama dosennya buat bikin artikel tentang BlackBerry. Selain itu, artikel-artikel yang Anda angkat jadi FA/GA juga kebanyakan tentang film jadul Indonesia yang pada paragraf akhirnya sama yakni mengenai keberadaan film jadul Indonesia yang dianggap hilang. -- Erik Fastman ( talk) 04:57, 29 March 2015 (UTC)
Wah, kalo misalkan bikin artikel di Wikipedia sesuai dengan minat usernya berarti bisa antar isi artikelnya (maaf) berat sebelah ya, misalnya ada pengguna punya minat tinggi terhadap perfilman Indonesia & memiliki kemampuan untuk mengembangkannya sampai jadi FA, sementara pengguna yang punya minat terhadap perpolitikan Indonesia tidak terlalu memiliki kemampuan untuk melakukan pengembangan, belum lagi orang yang nggak punya kemampuan untuk menyunting di Wikipedia. Kayak pada saat pengembangan artikel Jokowi di WBI, ada orang di Kompasiana yang ngeluh soalnya gubernur-gubernur Jakarta pada masa yang lampau nggak dikembangin. Selain itu juga bisa menguji keberuntungan para pembaca Wikipedia juga, pembaca Wikipedia yang minat baca tentang perfilman Indonesia jadi beruntung banget soalnya artikel-artikel yang ia tuju lengkap, sementara pembaca Wikipedia yang minat baca tentang perpolitikan Indonesia kurang beruntung soalnya artikel-artikel yang ia tuju kurang memberi informasi. Kalo kayak gitu jadinya, apakah pihak Wikimedia Foundation atau dari Wikipedians-nya sendiri ada tindakan buat mengajak & mengajarkan tentang Wikipedia terhadap orang-orang dengan minat terhadap suatu topik dimana artikel-artikel di Wikipedia yang berkaitan dengan topik yang diminati orang tersebut belum lengkap ? -- Erik Fastman ( talk) 11:47, 30 March 2015 (UTC)
Bagaimana juga dengan orang-orang yang kesannya "mendahului WBI" yakni orang-orang yang menerjemahkan artikel English Wikipedia ke bahasa Indonesia terus meletakkan hasil terjemahan tersebut di blog pribadi atau sejenisnya sementara artikelnya di WBI kagak lengkap atau malah belum ada sama sekali, dengan kata lain ia tidak meletakkan hasil terjemahan artikel English Wikipedia ke WBI tapi ke blog pribadi atau sejenisnya. Contohnya macam artikel id:John Wayne Gacy yang lebih dulu diterjemahkan ke Kaskus sebelum dibuat di WBI (lihat keterangan di bagian paling bawah) atau juga Blog Enigma yang beberapa kali melakukan penerjemahan dari English Wikipedia tapi hasil penerjemahannya tidak diletakkan di WBI melainkan di blognya sendiri sementara di WBI sendiri artikelnya kagak lengkap atau malah belum ada sama sekali. -- Erik Fastman ( talk) 12:46, 30 March 2015 (UTC)

Hey Crisco,
Thanks for taking the time to look at my FLRC. But I'm having trouble understanding your close, specifically the "naming was considered appropriate at the time, and further discussion is possible" along with your suggestion to raise the issue on the talk page. You might not have noticed that this was raised multiple times on the talk page already, and also more broadly at the filmography RFC, without any move toward consensus?
I get that nobody wants to revisit featured list candidacies over and over, but since there were so many contentious discussions about the article title after the nomination with no consensus resolution, I have a hard time seeing how my nomination was procedurally improper.
Thanks for your help.
Ps-- You would know this better than me, but when I read FLC/ar it didn't sound like a bot was going to archive the discussion of delisting proposals. AgnosticAphid talk 00:52, 27 March 2015 (UTC)
I'm not ignoring anything. I'm fully addressing you each and every time. I'm not perceiving anything, it's the bottom line truth. You can't say that a non-single can be a hit, then when I call you on it to give me an example, to then throw your toys out of the buggy and not do it and say I'm not willing to work with anyone. I think my contributions show that I have often worked with others. I have actually trimmed the lead down, not that you've noticed. I think that you use of "diatribe" is extremely misplaced; it's not me who started off being bitter, I think you will find that was you. — ₳aron 09:46, 27 March 2015 (UTC)

Looking at
Template:POTD/2015-04-08 in my browser, the caption to the right of the photo is about 2.7 times the height of the image and 0.7 times the width. This looks pretty poor. If the caption is to stay at its present length, then moving it below the image as in
Template:POTD/2015-04-09 would look much better. I would have boldly made the edit myself, but I can't see an easy way to do it except by changing the size=
parameter to enlarge the image, and I assume there's a POTD policy to present any particular shape of image at a single standard size. Do your templates have an option to easily make this layout change? If so, I suggest using it on this one. If not, I suggest thinking about it. If you want to reply, please do so here on your page. If you want to do nothing, fine. --

Crisco, we had a fairly inexperienced editor move Aquino to Aquino, Italy in order to give primary status to Corazon Aquino. The Aquino (disambiguation) page still seems to think that the Italian town is primary. This editor had also nominated eighteen articles to GAN right after trying, and failing, to nominate four at FAC, so this is someone both bold and lacking understanding in how Wikipedia works. Can you please take a look and do whatever seems appropriate? Many thanks. BlueMoonset ( talk) 01:26, 29 March 2015 (UTC)

Crisco, the next empty preps are for April Fool's—we're currently running two sets a day, and have a ton of approved hooks. I recall that you've assembled sets in the past, and that we usually run more hooks per set than the regular number (right now 8 per set). Is this something you can tackle? I have taken the precaution of putting a comment in both Prep 1 and Prep 2 noting that the sets should be April Fool's hooks, in the hopes of avoiding someone building regular sets and having to undo them.

That FA has long been on the Dweller blacklist because of its over-reliance on primary sources. I left a note on the talk page last year saying it was closer to FAR than TFA, so please ensure that it's up to modern standards before running it. Too busy at work these days to do that myself. Bencherlite Talk 15:31, 30 March 2015 (UTC)
Thanks for your comments on the nomination page. I completely understand that as an old FA that the article requires some work in order for it to meet modern standards. Bearing in mind that the topic is rather obscure, I have gone through the article and added modern sources wherever possible to supplement the ancient ones. Hopefully this should reduce the reliance on the older sources and in doing so the number of citations have risen substantially.
Looking through the article, the only parts that I would say still have a major reliance on ancient sources are those pertaining to specific battles, particularly that at Chios. Unfortunately, most modern sources deem it unnecessary to analyse the details of these minor battles. I will continue to have a look at some sources in order to find some extra details if possible. I have written something similar on the candidacy page. Thanks, Kyriakos ( talk) 23:08, 30 March 2015 (UTC)

Crisco, you nominated the infobox image for deletion on Commons; that image was used for the DYK nomination.
I took a look to see whether it seemed likely that the image would fly as a fair use one—while this wouldn't allow it to be used at DYK, the nomination could presumably proceed without the image—and noticed that the first image in the Gallery at the bottom of the article is also from the Met, and thus likely to be subject to the same deletion argument as you made for the infobox. (I'd imagine you're planning to nominate it.) While a single image of the the artwork might be able to be included in the article under a fair use claim, I can't imagine that a second image, this one a profile view, would be allowed as fair use.
I've put the DYK nomination on hold while this is sorted. Thanks. BlueMoonset ( talk) 21:24, 5 April 2015 (UTC)
