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.

File:GIJON CENTRO.png has been listed at Commons:Deletion requests so that the community can discuss whether it should be kept or not. We would appreciate it if you could go to voice your opinion about this at its entry.

If you created this file, please note that the fact that it has been proposed for deletion does not necessarily mean that we do not value your kind contribution. It simply means that one person believes that there is some specific problem with it, such as a copyright issue. Please see Commons:But it's my own work! for a guide on how to address these issues.

Please remember to respond to and – if appropriate – contradict the arguments supporting deletion. Arguments which focus on the nominator will not affect the result of the nomination. Thank you!

In addition, I noticed that you've made malformed deletion requests. Here, {{Delete}} is not for speedy deletion, please see COM:DP. When you want to delete a page by manually using the {{Delete}} template (rather than the automatic Nominate for deletion or Nominate category for discussion tool in the Tools menu on the sidebar per COM:DR#Starting requests and COM:CFD#Starting requests), you must follow the instructions in the template, including the "Click here to show further instructions" portion (or Commons:Deletion requests/Listing a request manually policy or the "By hand" portion of COM:CFD#Starting requests, normally collapsed), otherwise you will create a lot of work for other people. — Jeff G. ツ_{please ping or talk to me} 00:49, 13 September 2022 (UTC)Reply

Sorry, I'm new to Wikimedia Commons. Thank you very much for the advice, and above all, for fixing all seven malformed deletion requests. MGeog2022 (talk) 13:27, 13 September 2022 (UTC)Reply

You're welcome, but you forgot to ping me. — Jeff G. ツ_{please ping or talk to me} 13:29, 13 September 2022 (UTC)Reply

@Jeff G.: OK, I'm pinging you now. I'm still learning :-) MGeog2022 (talk) 13:33, 13 September 2022 (UTC)Reply

Good. You've been through COM:FS, right? — Jeff G. ツ_{please ping or talk to me} 13:35, 13 September 2022 (UTC)Reply

@Jeff G.: Yes, I've read "first steps".

I'll mark all 7 old images with "speedydelete" and the same reason they now have each one of them. I was the original uploader of all 7, and have changed all uses in Commons and Wikipedia to the new JPEG equivalents. I would have liked to upload a new version for all them, but it is not possible to replace an image with another in a different format. I could not create (original files were in PDF format) new PNG images with good quality and reasonable size, so I had to make JPEG ones. MGeog2022 (talk) 13:48, 13 September 2022 (UTC)Reply

Which criteria for speedy deletion do they meet? Please understand that on WMF projects any png image will look fuzzy when scaled down (due to design decisions discussed in phab:T192744). — Jeff G. ツ_{please ping or talk to me} 14:02, 13 September 2022 (UTC)Reply

@Jeff G.: They were of lower quality themselves, as compared with the new JPEG ones (it's easy to see it when viewed with enough zoom). I made a mistake using PNG for this kind of image at first. I'll add "F8. Exact or scaled-down duplicate" to all of them. MGeog2022 (talk) 14:08, 13 September 2022 (UTC)Reply

@Jeff G.: All of them are now tagged with "This file is an exact duplicate or scaled-down version of:". I hope everything is OK now. MGeog2022 (talk) 14:20, 13 September 2022 (UTC)Reply

You could add that to the DR subpages along with {{Vsd}}. — Jeff G. ツ_{please ping or talk to me} 16:41, 13 September 2022 (UTC)Reply
