File:D.polylepis wide.jpg

How is that possible? I was in contact with the author and he said that he not agreed to commercial reuse but only allowed reuse in wikipedia for non-commercial purposes. And that he will never agree to commercial reuse beause he cant allow this for contract reasons. --Martin H. (talk) 18:57, 2 January 2012 (UTC)

Hi Martin H. I noticed a ticket in OTRS (#2011121010015501) and I read that the uploader of Flickr gave permission to use it. He only asked for a link to his Flickr page. Of course this isn't sufficient and I wanted to send an email asking permission for a more specific license (by mistake I added the "PermissionOTRS" template instead of "OTRS received"). Did you email with the uploader himself or the one who uploaded it on Commons? I'll await your response before I reply on the uploader. Kind regards, Trijnstel (talk) 19:04, 2 January 2012 (UTC)

The uploader first uploaded some files from http://www.moolf.com/animals/black-mamba-snake.html with own work claims (deleted) - reuploaded with the claim that some Peter Hutch is the author (File:Zoo-black-mamba.jpg) AND that this Peter Hutch gave permission - deleted with evidence that Hutch isnt the author as claimed - again reuploaded now with true author (File:D.polylepis wide.jpg). Given that the uploader first claimed that a non-author and non-copyright holder gave permission I found it unlikely that so quickly the true copyright holder agreed to free reuse of all(!) files from his flickr.

I conacted the author/copyright holder via flickr and he confirmed me that he gave permission to reuse the specific pictures (not all as claimed by the uploader) for non-commercial purposes in Wikipedia and that he is not okay with his work beeing reused under free content conditions including commercial reuse because for various legal reasons he cant grant commercial reuse under a free license. So indeed the uploader asked the copyright holder - given File:Zoo-black-mamba.jpg I had doubt if he truly asked him - but he not got and never will get a free license. And most likely he not correctly asked for a free licensing but only for reuse in Wikipedia. --Martin H. (talk) 19:18, 2 January 2012 (UTC)

I just came by this single ticket. I searched in the archive and now I see 11 tickets of the uploader (User:Sebastian80). I'll delete the pictures I restored and some more he uploaded and I'll specifically request permission of the uploaders themselves (some email addresses are given) before I provide onwiki permission. Regards, Trijnstel (talk) 19:38, 2 January 2012 (UTC)

Update: I answered all emails he send to the queue permissions-commons. Initially I added "PermissionOTRS" for File:D-polylepis-in-defense.jpg as the permission of the original uploader (Bill Love) was given under the appropriate license, though I didn't trust the timestamps, see #2011121010011907 and #2011121010012817. I deleted all other files for which the uploader didn't give permission under the correct license. The uploader uploaded more images and now three images of snakes are left (File:Copperhead snake.jpg, File:Crotalus viridis 02.jpg and File:Dendroaspis viridis 001.jpg). For all three I couldn't find the corresponding OTRS tickets in the system, so I presume those will be deleted too in the near future. Thanks for giving some background. Kind regards, Trijnstel (talk) 20:28, 2 January 2012 (UTC)

The 1st looks ok, its a pd image database. The other two is also ok taken from one of this needless mirror websites of the National Digital Library of the US National Park Service, {{FWS Image}}, though the licensing is correct. --Martin H. (talk) 20:33, 2 January 2012 (UTC)

Hello, Trijnstel/Archive. You have new messages at Americophile's talk page. You may remove this notice at any time by removing the {{Talkback}} or {{Tb}} template.

I just want to draw your attention to the fact that I did not make any mistakes in moving files. AMERICOPHILE 20:09, 4 January 2012 (UTC)

Dear Americophile. Imo this image should've never been renamed (could be a request of the uploader, but that wasn't a valid reason to rename in this case). Plus I still don't like to see renames of pages of cities in Iran to their Persian names. That's something which should've been discussed first before you renamed them. You pointed to Commons:Gallery#Naming conventions, but there are not many Persian galleries on Commons and imo a request for permission would've been better than just rename them. Especially because all articles already existed for years. I started a thread about it on Commons:Administrators' noticeboard‎ to ask for the opinion of other administrators. Kind regards, Trijnstel (talk) 20:46, 4 January 2012 (UTC)

Black mamba photo

This black mamba picture is the original work of Bill Love (website [1]). He gave me permission via both phone and e-mail to use that picture. I can still forward the e-mail. Bastian (talk) 17:57, 5 January 2012 (UTC)

Nevermind, I just contacted Bill Love by phone (480-646-1297) and he uploaded it himself. I had permission from the man, why would you guys just delete it like that? Bastian (talk) 18:33, 5 January 2012 (UTC)

I deleted File:D-polylepis-in-defense.jpg, because I didn't trust the timestamps in the emails. You said he uploaded it himself; I found the file: File:Dendroaspis polylepis by Bill Love.jpg. In that case I think the permission was indeed arranged. I'll add the OTRS ticket numbers (#2011121010011907 and #2011121010012817) to it. Regards, Trijnstel (talk) 21:50, 6 January 2012 (UTC)

Okay, I have been getting quite a few permissions to use snake photos from Flickr users, problem is I don't know how they should send a letter of granting me permission. Is there a format of some kind? I keep telling them to just make a username and upload it themselves, which they have been doing for the most part and I have been most humbly appreciative. Some have even asked me do to it on their behalf (make a username with their name and credit the photo to them). You got to help me out here, what kind of letter is required? What if they allow me to use any picture I want from their image sets? What then? I have had at least 2 make accounts and upload pictures which I asked for. First, this one File:Naja_nigricollis_Sunset_09_Warren_Klein.jpg, then two Chinese cobra pictures File:Cobra with tongue from rob ferguson Naja atra (Chinese cobra).jpg & File:Cobra from rob ferguson Naja atra (Chinese cobra).jpg. BTW, can I re-upload the black mamba pic that Bill Love uploaded, only rotated to the other side. Like the first one with the mamba facing the left side. It looks much better on the article? Bastian (talk) 04:27, 7 January 2012 (UTC)

Hi Bastian. A lot of questions. I'll try to reply on each one of them (My apologies for the late reply btw; I was busy):

1) Yes, there is a standard letter. See Commons:OTRS for an explanation and an example of a letter to give permission.

2) I would recommend you to still request permission from the people who uploaded a picture for you (send it to OTRS by using the example letter and give a link to the file).

3) I also recommend you to request permission for each file you would like to upload. That's easier for both you, the person who has the image and us (the OTRS volunteers). They can't just say that you can use every image they have on their website. And again, please use the letter on Commons:OTRS.

4) Yes, you can reupload a file. Please use this form.

I hope I helped you; if you still have questions, feel free to ask. Kind regards, Trijnstel (talk) 17:27, 9 January 2012 (UTC)

Request for one more otrs validation?

Hi Trijnstel, thank you so much for the extremely quick OTRS response on the Kate Upton photo I uploaded earlier today. I understand there may be a backlog at OTRS, but I was wondering if I could request verification for File:Sara Paxton at Mother Goose Parade, 2007.jpg, which has not been identified by the OTRS team for a while now. The email's subject is "Sara Paxton photo". Would love to finally have it settled. If you could help, or know of someone who could help me, that would be fantastic. Thank you so much! – Kerαunoςcopia^◁galaxies 05:27, 11 February 2012 (UTC)

Hi Kerαunoςcopia. We have indeed a backlog at OTRS. By coincidence I noticed the OTRS ticket of the Kate Upton photo and I decided to handle this one. I've answered your email about the Sara Paxton photo now as well and I made the necessary modifications to the file page. So this is now  Done. Kind regards, Trijnstel (talk) 17:03, 11 February 2012 (UTC)

Hi Saibo. I send an extra email to the uploader in which I ask for a clarification (if he's really the author and if he has the proof for that). Regards, Trijnstel (talk) 21:07, 17 February 2012 (UTC)

Commons:Rename a category

Hoi Trijnstel! Sonphan29 heeft (ook) op Commons een aantal onzinnige titelwijzigingen gedaan. Eén daarvan kon ik zelf herstellen, maar voor Commons:Moving or renaming pages is iemand met meer rechten nodig. Zou jij die pagina (plus de bijbehorende overlegpagina) weer willen verplaatsen naar Commons:Rename a category? Alvast bedankt! Met vriendelijke groet, Mathonius (talk) 17:24, 11 March 2012 (UTC)

Philip Blommaert en Philip Blommaert

Dag Trijnstel, hier ben ik dan met mijn eerste vraag:

Op de Engelstalige wikipedia: Blommaert Philip AMVC 070506.gif en hier: Blommaert.jpg. Wanneer ik Blommaert.jpg wil moven naar Philip Blommaert of een andere naam, krijg ik dit. Anderzijds begrijp ik niet waarom de afbeelding Blommaert Philip AMVC 070506.gif dan weer niet in publiek domein is. Ik zou die file dus op Commons zetten met een betere beschrijving: "Philip Blommaert by Charles Baugniet.jpg". Op de afbeelding zie ik AMVC Letterkunde. Hoe gaat zoiets in zijn werk? Lotje ʘ‿ʘ (talk) 07:23, 12 March 2012 (UTC)

Hoi Lotje! Welke foutmelding je exact hebt gekregen, kan ik niet zien. De link werkt niet bij mij (logisch, want dit soort wijzigingen zijn altijd tijdelijk). In principe zou je de afbeelding gewoon moeten kunnen verplaatsen. Waarom dat niet lukt, weet ik zo een, twee, drie ook niet. Zou je anders misschien de foutmelding door kunnen geven aan mij? en:File:Blommaert Philip AMVC 070506.gif is destijds (2007) gewoon lokaal geüpload op de Engelstalige Wikipedia. Toen was het nog niet zo normaal dat de afbeeldingen op Commons terechtkwamen. Ik zou met behulp van CommonsHelper de afbeelding kunnen overzetten naar Commons. Wanneer ik er tijd voor heb, wil ik dat wel doen voor je. Met vriendelijke groet, Trijnstel_talk 20:01, 12 March 2012 (UTC)

Daarnet is het wél gelukt, toch bedankt hoor. Lotje ʘ‿ʘ (talk) 20:26, 12 March 2012 (UTC)

My article about Jean Pottier

Hy Trijnstel Please give me back my content. I am new on wiki and shurely made a couple of mistakes. But the text I'wrote gave me a day of investigation work. So I bid you to - give me hints in order to place that correctly - give me the text back in order to save it

Picture Permission

Hello there! I noticed that you answered my topic regarding the permission for file : CherishBlondAmbition telling me the permission couldn't be verified yet?? Can you tell me what was the problem for this?? And if I should get the owner to send another email with the permission?? THANK YOU!!!--VernitaG (talk) 20:47, 5 April 2012 (UTC)

Dear VernitaG. Since the image was posted on the fan site Madonnaunderground.nl, I'd like to see a confirmation mail of the owner of that site (see here for his email address). I'm not sure who send the image now, but I can't confirm it's of the owner. It could be of the photographer himself (which is good), but the owner should confirm it. Trijnstel_talk 19:07, 6 April 2012 (UTC)

So should i get the owner of the page to send the permission email again??? what email address was the email sent from??--VernitaG (talk) 05:48, 7 April 2012‎ (UTC)

Sorry, but because of privacy I can't give you the email address of the person who send the email. Though I'd prefer an email of both the photographer and the owner of the website. (The photographer because of the permission to use the photo and the owner of the website to make sure it's correct.) Kind regards, Trijnstel_talk 15:15, 7 April 2012 (UTC)

I just got an email from the owner of the website Hans Schaft (he also clarified that he did took the picture) saying he did send the email. from the contact email address on the website.--VernitaG (talk) 16:33, 7 April 2012 (UTC)

A second email was received and now the permission is confirmed, see here. Kind regards, Trijnstel_talk 17:50, 7 April 2012 (UTC)

verwijderde foto van Qadria Yazdanparast

Dag Trijnstel,

ik zie dat je naast de NL wikipedia ook OTRS-dingen doet op Commons. Ik wil je graag het volgende voorleggen: Begin dit jaar heb ik het artikel nl:Qadria Yazdanparast opgeknapt dat door een debutant was aangemaakt en op de verwijderlijst was terechtgekomen. Deze politica en vrouwenrechtenvoorvechtster heeft een tijd als asielzoeker in Nederland gewoond (maar kon weer terug naar Afghanistan toen het Talibanbewind was afgezet) en spreekt daardoor Nederlands. Ik wilde het artikel wat mooier maken door er een paar foto's van haar op te zetten. Ik heb haar per email benaderd en heb haar gevraagd om zelf een paar foto's te uploaden, omdat het bewerkelijk is qua rechten als ik het namens haar zou moeten doen. Ik heb haar precies uitgelegd hoe ze het moest doen en kreeg prompt een mail dat ze drie foto's had geplaatst. Twee ervan heb ik op haar Wikipediapagina gebruikt. Op haar verzoek heb ik vervolgens ook het artikel in het Engels vertaald (en:Qadria Yazdanparast)

Tot mijn verbazing zie ik nu dat de foto's die mevrouw Yazdanparast geupload heeft, verwijderd zijn door Morning Sunshine: 'No permission'. Ik heb die Morning Sunshine benaderd op zijn/haar OP maar krijg geen duidelijkheid wat er nou in zijn ogen mis gegaan is met de permission. Omdat communiceren in NL mij makkelijker af gaat, is mijn verzoek om voor me na te gaan wat mevrouw Yazdanparast verkeerd zou kunnen hebben gedaan, en uiteraard wat we moeten doen om de foto's terug te krijgen. Ik heb niet zo'n zin om deze drukke politica en hoogleraar, van wie ik al heel blij ben dat ze mijn mails zo welwillend heeft beantwoord, lastig te gaan vallen met een ingewikkeld OTRS-verhaal.

Ik kopieer hieronder de email die ik van haar heb ontvangen en waarop ze duidelijk aangeeft dat ze toestemming geeft voor het plaatsen van de foto's. Vriendelijk dank voor het meedenken, Erik Wannee (talk) 07:34, 16 April 2012 (UTC)

Dag Erik! De combinatie van Commons en OTRS kan inderdaad vrij ingewikkeld zijn. Ik zal je helpen. De toestemming die mevrouw Yazdanparast geeft is goed, maar helaas niet volledig. Ze zal de volgende verklaring in moeten vullen voor alledrie de afbeeldingen (bij 'afbeelding' kan ze ook meerdere afbeeldingen invullen uiteraard): nl:Wikipedia:OTRS/Mijn eigen afbeelding. Voor de originele Engelse verklaring verwijs ik je naar Commons:Email templates. Het mailtje moet verstuurd worden naar permissions-commonswikimedia.org. Als je weet dat ze het heeft gemaild, dan is het handig om mij even te informeren aangezien we een gigantische achterstand hebben. Dan zoek ik het mailtje op, plaats ik de afbeeldingen terug en kun jij ze weer in het artikel plaatsen. Hopelijk weet je zo voldoende. Mocht je alsnog vragen hebben, dan hoor ik het graag. Ik zal mijn best doen om ze zo snel mogelijk te beantwoorden. (Ik heb een druk leven.) Met vriendelijke groet, Trijnstel_talk 13:18, 16 April 2012 (UTC)

Dag Trijnstel,

Dus als ik het goed begrijp heb ik puur geluk gehad dat de meer dan 100 foto's die ik heb gemaakt en die ik op Commons heb gezet, nooit verwijderd zijn door iemand die twijfelde of ik ze wel zelf gemaakt heb. Want ik heb ze altijd gewoon geplaatst op deze pagina zonder daar achterheen een mail te sturen aan bovengenoemd mailadres. Op die pagina staat dat dat alleen zou moeten als het geen eigen werk is. Maar de foto's die mevrouw Yazdanparast heeft ge-upload zijn gewoon haar eigen foto's waarover ze dus zelf de rechten heeft.

Of is het misschien zo dat foto's waarop iemand zelf staat, per definitie verdacht zijn omdat er dan een ander is geweest die op het knopje van de camera heeft gedrukt? Ik vermoed dat het dat is.

In elk geval zal ik mevrouw Y vragen alsnog haar permission te mailen. Ik stel je op de hoogte als ze het mailtje heeft verstuurd. Bedankt alvast voor de medewerking! Erik Wannee (talk) 07:44, 17 April 2012 (UTC)

Dag Erik. Nou ja, het gaat er meer om of het wel of niet overduidelijk jouw eigengemaakte foto's zijn. En niet dat de door jouw geüploade foto's slecht zijn, integendeel, maar je kunt zien dat ze door een particulier gemaakt zijn. Dat is bij de foto's van haar niet het geval. Overigens, niet *zij* moet toestemming geven, maar diegene die de foto's gemaakt heeft - tenzij de rechten op de een of andere manier zijn overgedragen. Dus ja, het komt omdat het iemand anders is geweest die het knopje heeft ingedrukt. Nogmaals veel succes en bij verdere vragen hoor ik het graag. Met vriendelijke groet, Trijnstel_talk 10:54, 17 April 2012 (UTC)

Dankjewel voor de medewerking. Ik heb K3A een mail gestuurd en wacht op antwoord. Nu hoop ik inderdaad dat zij zelf de rechten heeft van de foto's, en dan krijgen we weer de discussie wie de rechten heeft als ik op vakantie aan een voorbijganger vraag om met mijn camera even een foto van mij te maken. Het verschil met de zelfontspanner is juridisch aanwezig maar aan de foto niet te zien. Zo kan naturlijk ook haar protretfoto met een zelfontspanner zijn gemaakt; dat doe ik ook wel eens. Enfin, we hopen er maar het beste van want het is toch zonde als op deze manier Wikipedia onnodig kleurloos zou blijven. Groet, Erik Wannee (talk) 17:19, 18 April 2012 (UTC)

file mover

Hi Trijnstel. In commons how many no . of contributions required for requesting file mover rights?, my request denied because of Not enough experience (i don't understand which one is not enough (edits, file uploads, or renaming requests )).

Whoops Clearly, I'm not informed of all of the policies on Commons--I hope this doesn't lead you to think that I can't be trusted with enhanced technical abilities... Koavf (talk) 21:12, 1 May 2012 (UTC)

Re:Oversight

Thank you for your kind words, Trijnstel! Raymond has just subscribed me to the mailing list, and you seem to be working on granting me the access to #wikimedia-privacy right now, too :-)) I will be learning the practice for now, hope to be of help, especially on IRC. Looking forward to working with you! odder (talk) 19:46, 2 May 2012 (UTC)

Abuse Filter #69

Dear Trijnstel. I getting to you because you have last modified Special:AbuseFilter/69 which is tagging edits for "OTRS permission by non-OTRS member". The filter obviuosly is only applied to edits, but does not catch uploads that are done by a non-OTRS member directly with (invalid) OTRS tag included. Could you please modify the filter that it matches at action=upload, too? (As there is no old_wikitext in this case, there possibly has to be a major modification.) Thank you! --Krd 20:53, 19 May 2012 (UTC)

 Done, see here. Though Krinkle adviced me on IRC - after I did the edit - to begin a discussion about this change as this is a non-trivial change. Trijnstel_talk 21:26, 19 May 2012 (UTC)

Thank you. Is there a discussion already ongoing? At which page? --Krd 07:32, 20 May 2012 (UTC)

As far as I know there isn't and personally I don't think any discussion is needed. Btw, please check if the uploads will be catched now. Regards, Trijnstel_talk 11:25, 20 May 2012 (UTC)

I'm going to test it and get back to you if it doesn't work.

I am also planning to write a bot skript that adds all new entries to a maintenance page, so that there can be tracked which entries already have been checked, but maybe there is some discussion needed if and where to keep such a page and pointing other people to assist checking those entries. If you have an idea, please let me know, otherwise i put it on the Commons:OTRS/Noticeboard. --Krd 11:43, 20 May 2012 (UTC)

It seems not to work yet, see File:testtest.jpg. (Please delete that image.) --Krd 11:57, 20 May 2012 (UTC)

(outdent) 

Let me quote Rillke from here: BTW, you can't check the Wikitext while uploading (it's empty). Read Special:AbuseFilter/81 and the associated links (bugzilla:19565). In short this means the abusefilter doesn't work for uploads yet and we should await the help of a developer (but that could last years as there are open ones of 2004).

Hi!

Can you add the newly arrived OTRS-permission (as mentioned here) to the image, please?

Thanks for your support! Regards, High Contrast (talk) 17:37, 7 June 2012 (UTC)

 Done and you're welcome! Trijnstel_talk 17:52, 7 June 2012 (UTC)

Hi Trijnstel,
did you check the substance of this permission? I am asking because the source website says in its terms "This site and its content is the copyright of two bits s.r.o. All rights reserved. Any redistribution or reproduction of part or all of the contents in any form is prohibited."[3]. --Túrelio (talk) 09:42, 11 June 2012 (UTC)

Hi Túrelio. I re-checked OTRS ticket:2012060710006501 now and the permission was provided by someone of Tripomatic itself. I'm not sure if it's provided by the company two bits s.r.o too (who claims to operate the site Tripomatic.com) though. So I hesitate a bit. What do you advice me to do now? Kind regards, Trijnstel_talk 16:56, 12 June 2012 (UTC)

No special advise. I only have some overall doubts: if you take the above linked image, 1) it carries a watermark "(C) CloudMade ..." (is that somebody or did they want to say cloud-made? I doubt that such "clouds" can own copyright.), 2) uploader Parimucha says "own work" (= "I am the author"), 3) the author entry say "Tripomatic.com", 4) it is self-licensed (i.e., by the uploader). All this simply doesn't fit together. Does Tripomatic.com say/claim to the author in the permission? --Túrelio (talk) 15:59, 13 June 2012 (UTC)

Not really. It says "I hereby affirm that *Tripomatic.com* is the creator..." and it's said by a project manager of both Tripomatic and Two Bits. Trijnstel_talk 16:08, 13 June 2012 (UTC)

Well, if they are personally identified by name and contact data, we could just take their statement by face value and in case of a wrong copyright claim they will be legally liable. As I am not an OTRS volunteer, feel free to discuss this with one of your colleagues. In addition, the inconsistent entries in the image description should be corrected according to the permission. --Túrelio (talk) 16:17, 13 June 2012 (UTC)

FYI: I now received an email in which he gives permission for three other images (ticket:2012061410006489). Trijnstel_talk 19:38, 14 June 2012 (UTC)

Turelio, it says "(C) CloudMade - MapData CCBYSA 2012 OpenStretMaps.org contributors". (C) not always means that it reserves its rights. In this case it also seems to be the right thing to do, given that they are based on a CC-BY-SA Work. They look good to me. Platonides (talk) 21:03, 14 June 2012 (UTC)

File:Luciano Chessa conducting the premiere of "It All Begins Now", Dec 2010.jpg

You added an OTRS permission tag here. Is it really correct that the copyright holder approved dual licensing of CC-BY-SA 1.0 and CC-BY-SA 3.0? This seems to be an unusual licence combination. Also, the {{Self}} contradicts with the source field. Could you check the file again? --Stefan4 (talk) 22:10, 13 June 2012 (UTC)

Sure, but I'll do it tomorrow as I'm out of time right now. Thanks for informing me. Kind regards, Trijnstel_talk 22:19, 13 June 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for checking it. I fixed the license cf the email send to OTRS. Trijnstel_talk 19:12, 14 June 2012 (UTC)

Question about CommonsDelinker

Thanks for granting me file mover rights, I have one question though. I have requested moves of over 40 files and they all have been moved except that the file name was not changed on the English Wikipedia. Is that because the person that moved the file didn't change it? I'm not sure what you have to do to replace the file name on other Wikipedias. Thanks, --Astros4477 (talk) 23:29, 16 June 2012 (UTC)

Hi Astros4477. If you click on the green "rename and replace" button (I thought that's what it says), then the file will be renamed and a rename request will be placed on User talk:CommonsDelinker/commands‎. (Unless you're an admin, then it will be added to User:CommonsDelinker/commands‎.) Once someone picks those requests up and adds them to the 'main' page, nothing will happen. Then CommonsDelinker will process them and perform them. Usually within an hour IIRC. See CAT:RENAME for more information. Hope this helps. If not, feel free to ask any of your questions. Good luck! Kind regards, Trijnstel_talk 23:37, 16 June 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for the help! One thing though, File:Hotel Breakers 2009.jpg doesn't list it being used in the English Wikipedia, even though it is used on the English wikipedia. It does say there's a file redirect but how long will that stay?--Astros4477 (talk) 00:07, 17 June 2012 (UTC)

I'm afraid I don't understand your question. That file isn't used on the English Wikipedia and is uploaded on Commons. Trijnstel_talk 00:10, 17 June 2012 (UTC)

On the other hand, you're right. You should request a rename via User talk:CommonsDelinker/commands. Trijnstel_talk 00:13, 17 June 2012 (UTC)

Hello again, I've grown more comfortable with moving files but File:Cedar Fair Fast Lane availibility icon.svg was renamed to File:Cedar Fair Fast Lane availability icon.svg and CommonsDelinker renamed some of the files on Wikipedia but it didn't rename all of them. Why would it replace some but not all?--Astros4477 (talk) 04:03, 23 June 2012 (UTC)

As far as I can see none is renamed by CommonsDelinker, see here. So these still have to be renamed. Please file a request for it. Trijnstel_talk 12:26, 23 June 2012 (UTC)

cy:wikipedia

Dag Trijnstel, ik had op de en:wikipedia een plaatje gezet dat ik van de cy:wikipedia haalde. Maar ik stel nu vast dat er een rode link naar hier staat. Moet ik dat plaatje er nu weer afhalen of wacht ik af en zie wat er ondertussen gebeurt? Lotje ʘ‿ʘ (talk) 13:39, 19 June 2012 (UTC)

Hoi Lotje. Het probleem is dat je een afbeelding hebt geplaatst op de Engelstalige Wikipedia wat op een anderstalig project "lokaal" geüpload was (cy:File:Ahmadinejad at Natanz.jpg). Daarom zie je op de pagina op de Engelstalige Wikipedia (en:Natanz) geen afbeelding maar een rode link naar Wikimedia Commons. Ik stel inderdaad voor dat je die link daar weghaalt, aangezien de afbeelding ofwel auteursrechtenschending ofwel fair use is en beiden op Wikimedia Commons niet toegestaan is. Met vriendelijke groet, Trijnstel_talk 19:31, 19 June 2012 (UTC)

 Done. Moet ik er van uitgaan dat alle plaatjes die niet op Commons staan oftewel auteursrechtenschending ofwel fair use is? Heb jij enig idee waarom ik op de cy:wikipedia geen bewerkingen kan maken? Lotje ʘ‿ʘ (talk) 20:02, 19 June 2012 (UTC)

• Oh, nee hoor, dat zeker niet. Fair use is namelijk wel toegestaan op andere projecten, zoals de Engelstalige Wikipedia. Maar op de Nederlandstalige Wikipedia is dat bijvoorbeeld weer niet toegestaan. Alleen wanneer afbeeldingen lokaal geupload zijn, kun je ze niet gebruiken op andere projecten. Je zou ze kunnen overzetten met behulp van CommonsHelper, maar dat mag dus niet altijd (copyvio moet eigenlijk altijd verwijderd worden en fair use is hier niet toegestaan).

Nou ja, overal dezelfde regelgeving zou het natuurlijk een stuk makkelijker maken. Wanneer ik hieromtrent met een vraag zit kan ik bij jouw terecht (hoop ik) ?

Natuurlijk. :) Trijnstel_talk 21:09, 19 June 2012 (UTC)

• Ik heb geen idee waarom je op cywiki niet kunt bewerken. Je hebt er wel een account en bent niet geblokt. Probeer het nog eens? Trijnstel_talk 20:54, 19 June 2012 (UTC)

Nog eens geprobeerd, bewerking wordt telkens weer afgebroken. Het zal wel vanzelf opgelost raken denk ik. Lotje ʘ‿ʘ (talk) 21:07, 19 June 2012 (UTC)

Dat denk ik ook. Mocht het niet zo zijn, dan moet je het me maar laten weten. Trijnstel_talk 21:09, 19 June 2012 (UTC)

Hey Túrelio! Thanks for the report. Both IPs are already globally blocked and I changed it here to 1 day as they're highly dynamic. This is the long-term vandal Wikinger.

I noticed User:11JORN uploaded these pictures and I also noticed that the OTRS permission indicates there isn't enough evidence. This is correct as I emailed Hans Schaft the owner of the website those pix are from and he confirmed he didn't sent the permission for those, files. The user who uploaded those pictures committed a violation. he either send those permission emails himself or from another email address.

Whose personal email? It sure wasn't the website's owner's he confirmed that to me. So if we're talking about the user's personal email then yeah. don't that qualify as copyright vio??--Queen Rapsheeba (talk) 23:39, 18 July 2012 (UTC)

The personal email of the person who send the emails. ;) I can't give you any names. But yeah, copyvio, and the files are already deleted. Trijnstel_talk 23:42, 18 July 2012 (UTC)

I noticed that user has uploaded several images that have been deleted for copyright vio, i think he's sending the permission mails himself posing as the owner. i think something should be done about it.--Queen Rapsheeba (talk) 23:43, 18 July 2012 (UTC)

I gave him a final warning, see User talk:11JORN#Copyright violations. Tomorrow, or maybe later as I'm quite busy, I'll look at his other uploads. Trijnstel_talk 23:48, 18 July 2012 (UTC)

Renaming

Hi Trijnstel, I have a doubt in renaming. As you know i am involved in TWMC cleanup, there are many files which has transliterated Tamil names. For example Tamil meaning of grains is தானியங்கள் (which is transliterated as dhaniyankal in englishFile:Dhaniyangal.jpg). Now the problem is, In what lang. the renaming should be done? (Tamil or English) and What's the renaming criteria that can be mentioned? (FR#2 or ?). Thanks in advance --Shanmugamp7 ^(talk) 06:50, 18 July 2012 (UTC)

Hi Shanmugamp7. COM:RENAME states "Remember, Commons is a multilingual project, so there's no reason to favor English over other languages". This means you may of course use the original Tamil name. But if the file name doesn't contain any obvious errors, it's better not to change anything. It doesn't fit in the rename criteria. Trijnstel_talk 10:18, 18 July 2012 (UTC)

See Jesus, the page name is not in English! But, there are at least 15 widely spoken languages in India, and not everyone will not be able to read the file name in Tamil). For example, if you search images of Rajatava Dutta in Commons (a Bengali film actor), will you search it by search query "Rajatava Dutta" or you will type in Bengali "রজতাভ দত্ত"? Of course you will search in English. So, if the file is named in Tamil, I think it is very important to add a detailed description in English, so that it can be found in search in English too! BTW, n this file: File:Dhaniyangal.jpg, the description is too short, IMO! --Tito Dutta (Send me a message) 11:00, 18 July 2012 (UTC)

Here the problem is, the file name not in English (that name is transliteration) and also not in Tamil script. The transliteration may vary person to person (For example:grains may be written as dhaniyankal or thaniyankal or daniyankal or dhaniyangal.....). If a person don't know Tamil means, he can't identify the subject. If it is in Tamil script means he/she can use any translation tools. (I'm asking you because, this doesn't match with any renaming criteria :) ). The description part also written like this. I think the person uploaded don't know, how to type in Tamil (I will correct description part later). Now the question is, whether should i rename it or not?. If it's to be renamed, then what should be the target language. Thanks--Shanmugamp7 ^(talk) 12:28, 18 July 2012 (UTC)

Okay, first, I promise, this will be my last post in this thread (unless I am directly addressed). Has anyone requested rename? If not, why you want to rename the file? If you want Tamil script, add in description, you can also add Teleugu, Malayalam or any other language you want (multii language description is really helpful sometimes)! And, as you have said, transliteration may vary from person to person, you can add all those in the description (eg. dhaniyankal or thaniyankal or daniyankal or dhaniyangal.....)! There will not be any problem in searching! You can also try to talk to the uploader, I can see he had participated in Tamil Wikimedia contest, so, there are chances you will get reply! --Tito Dutta (Send me a message) 13:01, 18 July 2012 (UTC)

Hi Titodutta. As i said earlier, i am involved in TWMC cleanup, it has many files which are not categorized, lacking description, irrelevant names or description. Here the problem is not adding description, It's the file name which has transliterated names (It can be considered as meaningless in the language, which the name was written ), and as i said earlier //transliteration may vary from person to person//, then how can i add all the words. //Has anyone requested rename? If not, why you want to rename the file? // Renaming can be done if a file matches with any renaming criteria, no need of any request (And also i'm cleaning up TWMC files 25000+). Many users participated in twmc has no edits after the contest (see http://toolserver.org/~quentinv57/sulinfo/Thagadooran).--Shanmugamp7 ^(talk) 13:31, 18 July 2012 (UTC)

My advice: "Bij twijfel niet inhalen" (Dutch). It means that if you have your doubts about something, then you shouldn't act. Trijnstel_talk 23:44, 18 July 2012 (UTC)

Ok Trijnstel,I will not rename that files..I think we should have a line about this transliterated file names in the renaming policy :)--Shanmugamp7 ^(talk) 02:56, 19 July 2012 (UTC)

Re: Copyright violations

I didn't know how to upload OTRS images. I did it as this picture was uploaded, which is from the same source. I could have asked for help for upload them. 11JORN (talk) 00:35, 19 July 2012 (UTC)

Yes but it wasn't Hans Schaft (owner of Madonnaunderground) who sent the OTRS permission email. Therefore the pix U uploaded were in fact copyright violations as someone else pretending to be the owner of the website/pictures send that mail.--Queen Rapsheeba (talk) 16:24, 19 July 2012 (UTC)

Actually, I don't think he did it on purpose. It's better to explain him the 'rules' of Wikimedia Commons and OTRS. Trijnstel_talk 20:35, 19 July 2012 (UTC)

PD Image

If in a Commons image we have PD-India tag added and not PD-US (1947 etc images), can that be uploaded in Commons? --Tito Dutta (Send me a message) 11:27, 30 July 2012 (UTC)

Sure it can. But if another PD tag is also relevant (such as {{PD-old}}), don't forget to mention that one too. Kind regards, Trijnstel_talk 13:22, 30 July 2012 (UTC)

Thanks a lot. No, PD-old is not relevant. Few images have been nominated for deletion, one is Commons:Deletion requests/File:Times of India front Page 15 August 1947.png.

I have not mentioned it there, but if only PD India license is not enough, it is going to create a huge problem, there are thousands of Commons images depending on PD-India only! --Tito Dutta (Send me a message) 14:05, 30 July 2012 (UTC)

Yes, there is loads of important historical images that are licensed as PD-India. I am naive in this area, but the necessity of US tag is because the servers are located in US, is this understanding correct?--Dwaipayanc (talk) 14:21, 30 July 2012 (UTC)

Any suggestion? --Tito Dutta (Send me a message) 01:42, 31 July 2012 (UTC)

Not really. I don't know everything from everything and I'm not sure about this case. I should ask others for their help. Trijnstel_talk 11:03, 31 July 2012 (UTC)

What a user!

I have found out an editor– it seems their more than 450 files got deleted for copyright issue, but they have re-uploaded all 450+ files when the problem got solved. Superb work!

What a user! --Tito Dutta (Send me a message) 06:10, 7 August 2012 (UTC)

Hi Tittodutta. I don't know that user, clearly German, very well. According to his SUL he has three projects where a has a lot of edits: the German Wikipedia (>35,000 edits), Wikimedia Commons (>35,000 edits) and the German Wikisource (>28,000 edits). All together he has more than 100,000 edits, so he's very experienced. Trijnstel_talk 10:31, 7 August 2012 (UTC)

Re:De-adminship

Hi Trijnstel, it's been pointed out to me that str4nd has made 5 admin actions on the day of last signing, so I didn't take any action here. As for The Evil IP address, I am not sure what to do; he clearly received the warning, but did not sign on the inactivity run page. I am going to ask him to clarify if he still wants to remain an administrator on Commons. odder (talk) 12:24, 24 August 2012 (UTC)

Re:Wiki Loves Monuments 2012

Hi Trijnstel — these are very good answers, thanks very much for handling those three tickets, and for bringing this to me.

As far as I know, the OTRS queues for WLM were not visible to all agents until a while ago, so that's why you might have not noticed them before. In the future, feel free to move any WLM-related e-mail to those queues; I have an e-mail notification set up for e-mails coming to the general (English) queue, so I can handle them.

And as for adding this question to the FAQ, I think it's a very good idea; we will be running a participant's survey very soon, so I think it would be nice to ask a question about what information the participants missed most, etc. In any case, thanks a lot for your help! odder (talk) 17:37, 2 October 2012 (UTC)

Thank you. :) One thing though; I see now I can move tickets to the WLM queues, but I can't see the tickets in it - that's what you meant, right? Trijnstel_talk 18:03, 2 October 2012 (UTC)

Hi again — yes, that's exactly what I meant; until a few days ago, you were not even able to move the tickets to the WLM queues, as they were not visible for agents that did not have access to them; this has been fixed by Rjd0060 (talk · contribs). odder (talk) 18:15, 2 October 2012 (UTC)

Ah, good to know. I didn't even know of that bug. Thanks again! Trijnstel_talk 18:17, 2 October 2012 (UTC)

Sorry for not replying to it earlier — I see now that Platonides has taken over ticket:2012092910001487, so I am leaving this to him to deal with. odder (talk) 19:52, 7 October 2012 (UTC)

your assistance please

You recently deleted File talk:Celebrating Labor Day 2009, Guantanamo -f.jpg as "spam". That is a funny place for someone to leave spam. Can I ask the nature of this spam, and what other places you found it? Geo Swan (talk) 22:41, 10 October 2012 (UTC)

Hi Geo Swan. Sure you can. I'll explain it. The Wikimedia projects suffer from a lot of spam lately. You can roughly divide them in three groups: the Chinese spambots, the comment spam and the Russian comment spam. The Chinese spambots are single-purpose accounts which create user pages with spam on it; the underlying IP addresses always geolocate to China. The comment spam contain messages like "I'm very happy to see your article (etc)" and are added by open proxies and webproxies on file, template or category talk pages. The Russian comment spam are similar to the 'normal' comment spam, but then written in Russian. The page you mentioned was from the second group, comment spam. He created more nonsense pages and I blocked the IP address, 108.171.207.228 (talk · contribs), for 1 month locally and globally (what I always do with these webproxies as they never stop). Hope this explains it a bit. If you have more questions about it, please ask. Kind regards, Trijnstel_talk 16:26, 11 October 2012 (UTC)

Role accounts

Thank you for protecting Photo.JPG. I have another (possible) request for your administrator tools — Kevlar group may need to be blocked, since it's clearly a role account. Do we have any policy here prohibiting role accounts, comparable to en:WP:ROLE? If not, please don't bother, since as far as I can tell, the user hasn't done anything disruptive. Nyttend (talk) 01:16, 11 October 2012 (UTC)

Hi Nyttend. We don't have a policy regarding role accounts iirc, but we do have a username policy (though not official). I'll think about it. Trijnstel_talk 16:26, 11 October 2012 (UTC)

File:Edward Aitken.jpg & File:Patrick Gordon Spence Amended.jpg

Hi Trijnstel, hope you're well. When you have time, and if it's not too much trouble, could you please tell me if I re-deleted the above linked files by mistake?

Hi Fastily. Adheesha88 contacted me about this on the English Wikipedia too, see here. I found three tickets (ticket:2012051210002514, ticket:2012051210002541 and ticket:2012082010007347), but I still have to read them all and get to know which ticket applies to which file. I do think however that there is sufficient permission (from what I've seen), so I think we should restore the files. What do you think? (I thought you still have access to OTRS, have you?) Kind regards, Trijnstel_talk 16:26, 11 October 2012 (UTC)

In that case, please restore the files accordingly then. I do have OTRS access, but not to the queue(s) these tickets are in. Thanks for taking the time to look into this. Best, FASTILY ^(TALK) 06:07, 12 October 2012 (UTC)

@SpacemanSpiff: aaah, thanks! I see he also uploaded File:Biju Phukan.jpg with the account Piku662. What do you think? Are all his other uploads copyvios too?

@Odder: of course I don't mind; I just didn't want to close it without even one comment or vote, so that's okay of course. :) Trijnstel_talk 16:48, 14 October 2012 (UTC)

I think the Phukan images are likely ok because from what I've seen he seems to a member of the family. However, there may be scope issues as they may not be notable people on whom any of the wikis are likely to have articles. I've just left a few of the articles standing on en.wiki but may have to go through deletion process for them sooner rather than later. cheers. —SpacemanSpiff 17:16, 14 October 2012 (UTC)

RFA questions

I hope you don't mind a quick question, since I noticed you were around. Can you look at Commons:Administrators/Requests/January, in the comment section?

 Done. You're absolutely right. I don't understand these questions either... Trijnstel_talk 21:11, 17 October 2012 (UTC)

Thanks Trijnstel. These are basically test questions. I guess this user wants prospective admins to have technical expertise in file editing in order to give them a support vote now.

List on the Title Page, as authors, one or more persons or entities responsible for authorship of the modifications in the Modified Version, together with at least five of the principal authors of the Document (all of its principal authors, if it has fewer than five), unless they release you from this requirement. +PrinceWilly 15:21, 24 October 2012 (UTC)

I know that's listed there and the authors name should indeed be mentioned (which isn't the case here). I also miss a source and explicit permission. The first sentence is "Version of Pp clock.gif on PNG-8 format." So I went looking at Image:Pp clock.gif and that one is deleted because of the following: "The source given by the uploader is incorrect - it is not a Nuvola icon, and is not PD-self. It's from everaldo.com. Very nearly an exact duplicate of File:Crystal clock.png, which is in a more appropriate format." So the info as mentioned there won't help either. File:Crystal clock.png gives http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php?content=8341 as source ("All Crystal icons were posted by the author as LGPL on kde-look"). I'm afraid it's more difficult than it seemed at first. We can't just delete the first file though as it's online for years and used overall. Trijnstel_talk 15:35, 24 October 2012 (UTC)

Anyway, I changed the icon. +PrinceWilly 20:56, 24 October 2012 (UTC)

Mail?

Beste Trijnstel. Ik geloof dat ik een mail van je kwijt ben. Wellicht op een ander emailadres aangekomen? Kan je me vertellen waar het over ging? Vysotsky (talk) 09:02, 12 November 2012 (UTC) Inmiddels hervonden. Toestemmingsemail komt eraan. Vysotsky (talk) 09:08, 12 November 2012 (UTC)

Dank. We hebben hem ontvangen (ticket:2012111210003252). Er is alleen wel een probleempje: ik lees "niet-commercieel" en dat is niet correct. Al onze licenties bevatten het toestaan van commercieel gebruik. Ondanks dat dit niet veel inhoudt (er worden geen hele boeken gedrukt of zo), moet men hier wel mee akkoord gaan. Trijnstel_talk 10:58, 12 November 2012 (UTC)

Dat vraag ik na. Ik verwacht geen probleem, maar waarom is er eigenlijk niet ook een niet-commerciële licentie in Wikimedia Commons? Vysotsky (talk) 11:02, 12 November 2012 (UTC)

Je kunt op Commons:Licensing meer informatie over geschikte licenties e.d. vinden. Dit stripje legt dat commerciële aspect uit. Trijnstel_talk 11:18, 12 November 2012 (UTC)

Ter aanvulling: wij raden altijd het gebruik van de licentie cc-by-sa-3.0 aan. Op COM:OTRS staan enkele voorbeeldmails (hier ook). Trijnstel_talk 11:20, 12 November 2012 (UTC)

Beste Trij, nog een domme vraag: betekent "Share alike" dat als meneer X afbeelding Y in zijn eigen publicatie Z gebruikt, dat dan de hele publicatie Z ook CC-by-sa-3.0 is? Vysotsky (talk) 08:30, 13 November 2012 (UTC)

Geen enkele vraag is dom. :) Je kunt hier een uitleg van de licentie cc-by-sa-3.0 vinden. En daar staat o.a.: "Share Alike — If you alter, transform, or build upon this work, you may distribute the resulting work only under the same or similar license to this one." Dus dat betekent dat je de afbeelding mag veranderen mits je het resultaat ook vrijgeeft onder de cc-by-sa licentie. Verder heb ik andere vrijwilligers even om advies gevraagd en zij zeggen dat het wel belangrijk is dat je de afbeelding kunt herkennen als losstaand product. In een boek is dat vrij gemakkelijk (vergeet niet de auteurs te vermelden!), maar met een collage bijvoorbeeld zou het wat lastiger worden.

Mass DR of copyvios

Hi Trijnstel. Since you're around, can you look at this mass DR: Commons:Deletion requests/Files uploaded by زياد رجب? These are obvious copyvios, but there were too many to CSD. INeverCry 20:25, 15 November 2012 (UTC)

You could've nuked them all if you were convinced that those are obvious copyvios. But I haven't looked at them very clearly and I don't have time right now to do so either, so I think it's better to wait a week or so. Have you seen my question regarding a copyvio user too btw? If not, please take a look at it. :) Kind regards, Trijnstel_talk 20:33, 15 November 2012 (UTC)

OTRS-received dates

Hi Trijnstel. You recently added a lot of dates to OTRS-received boxes set by me. Please let me know if this is necessary, so I would do this myself next time. As far as I know there was a bot taking care of this, and additionally I'm not sure if this date is needed at all. To my opinion it is not necessary to utilise daily categories but the list of transclusions of the OTRS-received template should be sufficient. Please advise. Thank you. --Krd 08:40, 29 November 2012 (UTC)

Hi Krd. Yes, I think it's useful, tbh. The PermissionOTRS gadget automatically adds a date to it when you click on "OTRS received" and add an OTRS number. It's very useful to have a date on it, because in that case you see for which files it's long ago when we send an email to the copyright holder and we didn't receive a reply in the mean time. Then you can delete the old ones and leave the other ones. Without the date it's much harder to find out. Kind regards, Trijnstel_talk 13:57, 29 November 2012 (UTC)

To track the no response issues I created Commons:OTRS/received which is sorted by last file page edit and grouped by ticket number. I think this scaled much better than categories. Anyway, if you think the date is necessary, I try to remember to set it next time. Thank you. --Krd 16:29, 29 November 2012 (UTC)

Thanks. That's a very useful page; please list it somewhere. But I do think that the categories are useful too, sorry. ;) Trijnstel_talk 16:46, 29 November 2012 (UTC)

Please help

Hi Trijnstel,

As you had a little involvement before, could you please weigh in with an opinion here? It's not just a user name issue, but one of privacy and licensing and I am getting increasingly upset by the whole thing. Thank you. -- Hex 15:16, 6 December 2012 (UTC)

I understand your feelings, but as I'm not a local 'crat I can't push the others. Why this btw - it seems that the original request is restored? Trijnstel_talk 21:58, 6 December 2012 (UTC)

Fair enough - I thought maybe you could contribute some encouragement. That other request was because I thought I could merge the old name into the temporary one, then merge that when I finally got control of the one I wanted. But apparently that isn't possible, so I decided to try the original request again. It looks now like it's finally going to happen, thanks to a suggestion from Cecil.

Best wishes, — Hex (❝?!❞) 21:40, 12 December 2012 (UTC).

Humanisti Korolaine-Virkajärvi Katri.JPG

Hey Trijnstel, I noticed you tagged File:Humanisti Korolaine-Virkajärvi Katri.JPG with an insufficient permission tag a month ago. Was there something wrong with the license? From what I can tell, the file specified the uploader as the author and had a valid free license tag in the first place... (It also seems to have been tagged for "no permission" earlier for some reason – I'm discussing with the tagger what the issue was there.) Regards, Jafeluv (talk) 10:28, 13 December 2012 (UTC)

Hi Jafeluv. Nope, no insufficient imho, but I added {{OTRS received}} to prevent it from being deleted soon. Apparantly it didn't help. The related OTRS ticket is ticket:2012101710010531 and was initially send to the queue permissions-commons. As it was written in Finnish, a language I don't speak, I added that template and moved it to permissions-fi. Sadly no one answers the tickets in permissions-fi which is why there are so many open tickets in the queue and images are being deleted here. :( Kind regards, Trijnstel_talk 21:37, 13 December 2012 (UTC)

Ok, thanks for the info. I was about to respond to the ticket, but noticed that it had been deleted (probably because of the OTRS received tag which says that the "permission was insufficient"). I think the template is intended only for cases where we need additional information from the copyright holder, otherwise {{OTRS pending}} is probably more appropriate. I've restored the image with the correct permission now, although I can't see why the user's self-license wasn't enough in the first place... :S Jafeluv (talk) 23:21, 13 December 2012 (UTC)

Yeah, well, I noticed that images with "-received" will be kept longer than with "-pending". Maybe we should adjust it or create a new one. Trijnstel_talk 20:58, 14 December 2012 (UTC)

IP block

Hi Trijnstel. I'm not experienced with IP blocks. I blocked this IP for a month for spamming. You blocked this same IP in September as a proxie IP. Is my 1 month block ok, or should the block be longer/shorter/done differently? Thanks for your time. INeverCry 02:12, 27 December 2012 (UTC)

Simply my 0.02. I tend to escalate blocks (and one reason I may place a small block is as a marker for the future). However I do not recall ever blocking an IP for more than a year - the internet is a transient place. Oddly or otherwise I have very very rarely found myself reblocking open proxies for example - odd but true. Either way further blocks can always be placed and I prefer to use short blocks to start with at least.

This IP is obviously a comment bot source IP (To Trijnstel - a global block looks sensible!).

Google is your friend (sometimes) so check this search. Assuming you get the same answer as me this is a highly abused IP. Personally I would block for a year (my max for an IP). I'd even be tempted to hard block it - nothing of any value is likely to come from it IMHO. Cheers --Herby ^{talk thyme} 08:44, 27 December 2012 (UTC)

Short reply as I'm busy right now: 91.223.75.10 is  g-blocked for 1 month and 159.224.218.28 for 6 months (both anon-only). Trijnstel_talk 10:05, 27 December 2012 (UTC)
