funded loan of 1891 certificates

Hello Godot13, I came across the funded loan of 1891 certificate images and i never seen these before. Are these the same size as the old large currency? if so how much larger are they in comparison? thanks ...Hpman2... ~~ — Preceding unsigned comment added by Hpman2 (talk • contribs) 16:17, 06 February 2016 (UTC)

Hpman2- They are significantly larger, anywhere from roughly 150% to 250% the size of a period banknote. Next time I'm in DC I'll try and measure some of them.--Godot13 (talk) 20:14, 6 February 2016 (UTC)

Permission tags

Hi Godot13,

I'm currently reviewing images where OTRS-tickets have been added by non-OTRS members. I saw that you added ticket:2013030510011547 to File:WV-Williamson-6830-02RS-10-15-B.jpg. Although the ticket indeed relates to you I highly doubt that the way in which this ticket is used is in line with what OTRS is for. What I mean with that is that normally the OTRS-tickets contain permissions (with private information such as email and names) from the authors. In this case the ticket entails a reasoning on why this images are free. This reasoning can also be given on Commons. If the content of an OTRS-ticket can also be detailed on Commons or any wiki than using OTRS can be confusing. After all OTRS is a black box for most users, who can't see the details of the tickets. The permission/copyright situation for File:WV-Williamson-6830-02RS-10-15-B.jpg would be as strong when there is not OTRS-ticket present. For this reason I would like to suggest to just keep the reasoning on Commons, and not use an OTRS-ticket where this is not necessary.

Greetings, Basvb (talk) 12:35, 16 April 2016 (UTC)

Hi Basvb, the use of the OTRS tag in this case (and all cases involving objects from the Smithsonian's National Numismatic Collection (NNC)), has been to confirm that the objects is, as stated, from the NNC (i.e., to confirm the provenance as legitimate). When I began uploading notes from the collection there were some issues regarding proof of provenance to a national government collection. It was also felt that an OTRS ticket would be beneficial since I am an unpaid volunteer (Research Associate) and do not fall clearly in the roll of a government employee producing images as part of their job.--Godot13 (talk) 21:07, 16 April 2016 (UTC)

Puerto Rican Banco Español de Puerto Rico series A - D 1890 onwards Banknotes

Hello there, I happened to notice that you have contributed a lot to banknotes such as the Cuban peso banknotes by the Banco Español de Cuba they are crisp and clear. I have been having trouble trying to figure out if and how the banknotes of the Puerto Rican pesos and of course the centavo coins too. I guessed that it will a similar law as these Puerto Rican pesos were also made by the American banknote company in the 1890s onward. if you can help somehow, they are very pretty notes, it would be much appreciated. Here's an example even though its not a very crisp and clear image. series D example Hispania (talk)

Hispania- I am traveling until the middle of August. When I get home I will see what images of early Puerto Rico notes I have (or might be able to get).--Godot13 (talk) 19:09, 22 July 2016 (UTC)

File:Scotland-2016-Aerial-Airth-Old Parish Church.jpg

Hi Godot13, I really like File:Scotland-2016-Aerial-Airth-Old Parish Church.jpg. It looks like a house rather than a church so I had a look for other aerial photographs of the church. In this one from Canmore you can just about make out the church tower behind Airth Castle. I'm not sure the photo is of the church, do you know where it might be?

A barnstar for you!

		Russian Barnstar of National Merit
		For your great images from Russia. I love seeing every one of them. I'm slowly building and sorting our Russia-related VIs here on Commons. Right now we're at simple cats like people, cities, and buildings, but pretty soon it'll be Oblasts, Krais, cities, towns; people by profession; building by function, etc. I've uploaded thousands of Russia-related images from Flickr and old writer pics from archive.org, and then there are hundreds of images like many of yours that're just waiting to be nominated at VIC. lNeverCry 06:06, 31 October 2016 (UTC)

INC- Many thanks for this!--Godot13 (talk) 23:05, 31 October 2016 (UTC)

Aerial shots like File:RUS-2016-Aerial-SPB-Peter and Paul Fortress 02.jpg are especially interesting to see. When it comes to VI, there are so many images of Russian and Ukrainian places, buildings, and people that qualify that it'll probably take me years to get a decent number nominated and passed, and to get together a well-established and comprehensive category system for them. Then I've got 35,000+ of my own transfers from Flickr, mostly from the UK, US, Russia, and Ukraine to sort out. It's a labor of love though. lNeverCry 04:23, 1 November 2016 (UTC)

review

 Comment Your image is certainly very nice, but scope is too vague IMHO. There are some aerial shots of the place in the category, of which yours is certainly the best. I feel it is better to create a new category for the aerial shots and edit the nomination page. Nikhil (talk) 02:08, 27 October 2016 (UTC)

Nikhil- Thank you for the kind words. The scope does specifically qualify the image as being considered VI for aerial within Peter and Paul Fortress...--Godot13 (talk) 03:22, 27 October 2016 (UTC)

Wiki Loves Monuments 2016 in the United States – Results!

This user participated in Wiki Loves Monuments 2016.

Want to show your participation in Wiki Loves Monuments 2016? Add {{User Wiki Loves Monuments 2016}} to your userpage!

Thank you for contributing to Wiki Loves Monuments 2016 in the United States during the month of October! The United States contest saw over 1,700 people contribute over 11,000 great photos of cultural and historic sites from all over the United States and its territories. In addition to National Register of Historic Places sites, we welcomed uploads of sites designated by state- and local-level historical institutions and societies. Hundreds of these photos are already being used to illustrate Wikipedia articles!

We're excited to announce that our national judging process has concluded, and that we have selected the winners of Wiki Loves Monuments 2016 in the United States! We were amazed by all of the uploads, and regret having to narrow it down to just 10. That being said – congratulations to our national winners and their amazing shots! Our 10 winners will be sent to the international Wiki Loves Monuments jury, who will then select the winners of the international contest. If you're interested in seeing the winners of the other various national contests as they are announced, you may do so at Wiki Loves Monuments 2016 winners.

Finally, we have also created a feedback form for all participants in the United States to fill out. The survey is optional and anonymous, and only takes a minute or two – we hope to use the feedback to organize better events in the future!

Once again, thank you for participating in Wiki Loves Monuments 2016, and we hope to see you again for future Commons photography events! ~Kevin Payravi (talk) 06:29, 2 November 2016 (UTC)

Krestovsky Stadium

I hope you don't mind, but I put this together: Commons:Valued image candidates/RUS-2016-Aerial-SPB-Krestovsky Stadium 01.jpg. It should pass pretty easily. The 2nd version doesn't give as much context and atmosphere. I renamed the related category to simplify it a bit. lNeverCry 03:19, 5 November 2016 (UTC)

INC- Appreciate the head's-up, no problem. The original category name was kind of funny (and sort of seemed like it was created before they actually named the stadium), but you made an appropriate change....--Godot13 (talk) 03:28, 5 November 2016 (UTC)

I've already got my own Russian stadium VI: File:Traktor Ice Arena (13125574365).jpg. I've transferred a lot of images from Russia via Flickr, and we've got plenty of other ones here that are worthy of VI status. My aim is for much better VI coverage of Russia and Ukraine. I've got paintings of Dostoyevsky, Leskov, Pisemsky, and Shevchenko at VIC at the moment. lNeverCry 03:32, 5 November 2016 (UTC)

Hi Andrew, this photo taken by you is the winner of WLM-Russia this year, congrats! A great shot and this is always a challenge to manage a real WOW photo of an extremely widely photographed landmark of which we on Commons already have thousands of photos (including QI, FP). Unlike many of the former WLM/WLE Russia contests, here we have the situation that I fully support the jury's decision on the 1st placed photo; and good luck from my side for the international round! :) --A.Savin 15:37, 7 November 2016 (UTC)

He has basic photographic equipment: an old D300 camera and 35mm lens, and lives in a poor country where photographic equipment is expensive. The Photographer has recently taken several images using the technique where multiple frames are stitched together to create a high-resolution panorama. However, many times frustrated with the stitching errors that result from trying to take such photos without a proper panoramic head for his tripod. This special equipment permits the camera to be rotated around the entrance pupil of the lens, and eliminates such errors. Having a panoramic head would greatly increase the potential for The Photographer to create sharp high-resolution images for Commons. In addition, the purchase of a fisheye lens would enable 180 × 360° panoramas to be taken, which are a great way to explore a scene as though one is really there.

Please see the discussion about the Crowd-funding campaign on User talk:The Photographer#Generosity Crowdfunding Campaign and visit the Generosity Crowd-funding Campaign page to consider donating. Even a modest donation will make a difference if many people contribute. Thanks. -- Colin (talk) 13:30, 22 November 2016 (UTC)
