Grazie per aver partecipato a WikiLovesMonuments 2023 - Italia

_{(English version available here)}

Ciao CosyCobra, grazie per aver partecipato all’edizione italiana di Wiki Loves Monuments 2023!

È stato un anno da record, con oltre 52.000 immagini caricate su Wikimedia Commons, di cui già 2.800 utilizzate sui progetti Wikimedia (numero destinato ad aumentare). Stiamo davvero documentando il patrimonio culturale italiano insieme!

In attesa del risultato dei lavori di selezione delle fotografie da parte delle giurie, ti chiediamo di dedicarci pochi minuti del tuo tempo per rispondere a un breve questionario (anonimo), che ci aiuterà a fare ancora meglio il prossimo anno: link al sondaggio sul limesurvey di Wikimedia Italia

Grazie ancora. --Ysogo(talk) 21:00, 4 October 2023 (UTC) (Questo messaggio è stato inviato tramite il sistema Global message delivery)

Category removal question.

CosyCobra,

Did you remove these categories because this photo is not in Italy or because you did not want the location disclosed? Please, see here: https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=File%3AHarvested_sunflower_field.jpg&diff=719769230&oldid=719755666 Thanks, --Ooligan (talk) 18:14, 29 November 2023 (UTC)

@Ooligan: Hello. I explained it here to the user who added them. Is there any problem? CosyCobra (talk) 21:26, 29 November 2023 (UTC)

@CosyCobra- Was your category edits (in the file linked above), based on reason #1 or #2? --Ooligan (talk) 21:54, 29 November 2023 (UTC)

@Ooligan: Disclosing it in a public page would defeat the purpose of omitting the category, wouldn't it? :) But if you're not asking out of mere curiosity and tell me what you are looking for, I may be able to help in another way. --CosyCobra (talk) 19:56, 30 November 2023 (UTC)

Location?

Hi CosyCobra - I am guessing your photo File:Equisetum sp.jpg (which is Equisetum telmateia) was taken somewhere in Italy, but it would be good if you could add a detailed location, please! This will make the file much more useful. Grazie! - MPF (talk) 22:22, 17 September 2024 (UTC)

@MPF Hello, and thanks for taking care of such an old upload! I took that picture in Italy indeed. But it is part of a big messy bunch of old pictures (some of them dating back 7 years or more), so I can't recall where this particular photo comes from. --CosyCobra (talk) 08:59, 18 September 2024 (UTC)

Grazie! If you do remember later where you took it, it is worth adding the details (even if it is just what region of Italy). It is worth looking through other photos you took at the same time to look for ideas or anything that will trigger a memory :-) MPF (talk) 10:11, 18 September 2024 (UTC)

You're welcome! Reviewing metadata of the first bunch of pictures I uploaded after signing up has been in my backlog for a while, I will try my best to find some time to work on it. --CosyCobra (talk) 11:18, 19 September 2024 (UTC)
