Improving link to author in Commons structured data
[edit]Hi, thanks for your work on recently uploaded files on Commons. I noticed that you add 'unknown' value to creator (P170) to files on Commons. Is there a simple way to change this to a proper QID of the uploader? And is this even desirable? I searched for a dedicated tool, but there seems to be none suited to this purpose. Any tips would be really appreciated :). Vojtěch Dostál (talk) 15:32, 4 August 2024 (UTC)
- @Vojtěch Dostál: the problem is that people are creating vanity items for non-notable Wikimedians.
- I want to discourage that behavior so that's why I use "some value" for the creator. Multichill (talk) 12:42, 1 September 2024 (UTC)
- Yeah, I understand that and there's no easy solution to that. On the other hand, connecting the files to already existing items would be nice. A tool is too easy to abuse, then, but maybe a bot could read from a preapproved list of username-QID pairs. People would be able to nominate new lines to that list. I would volunteer to go through each suggested username-QID pair and consider if the uploader is notable and deserves an item. Vojtěch Dostál (talk) 14:36, 1 September 2024 (UTC)
Deleting category
[edit]Your User:BotMultichillThas been deleted the categories of File:OOjs UI icon Wikidata Echo lightcolors.svg and File:OOjs UI icon Wikidata Echo lightcolors en.svg, files that I recently uploaded. I have already re-categorized these files. You should check your bot. Thank you very much. Jmarchn (talk) 19:38, 11 August 2024 (UTC)
- @Jmarchn: the bot doesn't delete categories so it doesn't need any checking. According to the history, you didn't add any categories at upload.
- If you really think the bot removed it, can you please provide a link to the diff where the bot removes the category? Multichill (talk) 20:47, 11 August 2024 (UTC)

yifeibot
[edit]Hi Multichill! It looks like yifeibot (which you are listed as a maintainer on) seems to be needing frequent Toolforge admin restarts (2 this month, per SAL and an IRC message today). If you would like any assistance, I'd be happy to be added as a co-maintainer and troubleshoot (or just restart) as needed. Best, —Mdaniels5757 (talk • contribs) 20:05, 25 August 2024 (UTC)
Coordinates tool
[edit]Hi Multichill, Akoopal, and TheDJ, I'm a big fan of the coordinates tool that the three of you maintain. I'm thinking of privately forking it to make some changes to suit my personal preferences (size of the map, available templates, etc). Would you object to this? It would be only for my personal use, but if I made any modifications that I think would be useful for other users, I would be happy to contribute them. If you'd be okay with me doing this, I have a few questions:
- Is the code available (github etc)? If not, would you have any recommendations for making a local copy?
- I see that several additional tile sets, including Google satellite imagery which I greatly miss from now-defunct GeoLocator, are commented out in the code. Would these be possible for me to enable in my private version, or are there additional complications?
Best, Pi.1415926535 (talk) 02:39, 26 August 2024 (UTC)
- Hi @Pi.1415926535, you mean https://locator.toolforge.org/coordinates.php ? I don't believe there is actually a repository, however i could make one if desired. Things like Google are commented out, as linking to external sources such as Google is not allowed from Wikimedia services as they might compromise the privacy of the users. —TheDJ (talk • contribs) 22:00, 27 August 2024 (UTC)
- @TheDJ: Thanks for the reply. Yes, the tool that you linked to. If it would be a quick job to make a repository that would be wonderful, but certainly don't waste tons of time on it. If I'm running it locally (ie without the privacy protections of Wikimedia sites), will the additional tile sets need any work besides uncommenting them? Thanks, Pi.1415926535 (talk) 19:18, 29 August 2024 (UTC)
- @Pi.1415926535: as DJ mentioned, we disabled external sources a couple years ago due to privacy concerns.
- If you have a Toolforge account, you can see the source in /data/project/locator/public_html . Multichill (talk) 12:35, 1 September 2024 (UTC)

PR contributions for toollabs repo
[edit]Hi. Are you open for any sort of PRs on GitHub for https://github.com/multichill/toollabs. Do you have any priority lists that I can contribute to? -- DaxServer (talk) 09:35, 8 September 2024 (UTC)
- @DaxServer: it's basically a backup of my own stuff so I can easily share it around. I generally try to move generic stuff to Pywikibot or a shared repo with shared toolforge project (like for example User:ErfgoedBot).
- Say something like Commons:Bots/Work_requests#Add_P1651_YouTube_video_ID_structured_data_from_"source"_attribute_of_Filedesc_template: I would probably write some code under my own account and test it. If it works and more people are interested, I would fork it to another bot account and code repo running on Toolforge.
- Anything in particular you're interested in? Multichill (talk) 18:37, 8 September 2024 (UTC)
- Nothing in particular. I'm just looking around to see if there's something that I can do as I've few more weeks of free time -- DaxServer (talk) 08:08, 9 September 2024 (UTC)

Letter from Selena at the Village Pump
[edit]Hi Multichill, I hope you're fine. Since you participated at the Commons meeting at Wikimania, I wanted to flag a potentially interesting discussion at the Village Pump, started by Selena Deckelmann about finding a better way of supporting Commons. Maybe you can consider, if you have time, to share your thoughts? Thanks in advance! Sannita (WMF) (talk) 14:16, 16 September 2024 (UTC)

Hi! I noticed that license migration does not work with this template. See File:Badia fiorentina, nardo di cione (attribuzione), cappella di san bernardo 3.JPG for example. Do you know how to fix? --MGA73 (talk) 20:13, 2 October 2024 (UTC)
- Thank you! I thought we had do make it like {{Self}}. Your fix is much easier than messing with the template.
- Anyway I have been trying to complete the license migration on all wikis and there are only a few left. One did not like that and started m:Requests for comment/GFDL to CC License Migration of files. Another wiki made this DR: Commons:Deletion requests/File:Material.jpg. --MGA73 (talk) 17:02, 3 October 2024 (UTC)

Custom P170 statement for BotMultichillT
[edit]Hi @Multichill, Thank you so much for creating and maintainig this bot adding SDC. It saves us so much manual work. However, I have a request to customize the P170 statements. For some Commons photographers (including myself), Mxxxx creator (P170) unknown value is't quite correct. Specific QIDs do exist and could be used instead. Is it possible to modify the P170 statement for these. For personality rights reasons it could be opt-in. @Poco a poco, Mike Peel, XRay, Alexander-93, and Celestinesucess: What are your thoughts on this? MB-one (talk) 08:05, 20 October 2024 (UTC)
template bMA / template Bmz
[edit]Hoi Multichill. Het genoemde template plaatste twee gebroken koppelingen op pagina's en ik heb de links aangepast naar de huidige situatie. Wellicht kunnen alle voormalige bMA bestanden in een eigen cat geplaatst worden met tekst en uitleg. Omdat dan eigenlijk ook de zinsnede met twee gebroken links 'De foto stond hier en werd gebruikt op deze pagina gebruikt." zou moeten worden opgeruimd. Bijvoorbeeld verwijderen met een batch script. Of vervangen door "Bron: bureau Monumenten & Archeologie, gemeente Amsterdam (bMA)". Het gaat hier om citrca 500 bestanden. Ga je akkoord die zin te verwijderen? En eigenlijk vind ik de in het Engels vertaalde naam overbodig, verwarrend en heel vaag zonder de Nederlandse vertaling of link, zoals het net nog was, en nmm zou de oude Nederlandse naam met afkorting eigenlijk volstaan. Dit is dus een soort 'botverzoek' en het gaat vooral om het opruimen van de regels met de twee defecte links 'hier' en 'deze', die nu betekenisloos en irritant zijn geworden. Bedankt.
PS en dan staat daaronder ook nog eens het verzoek dingen te sturen naar een oud adres want ik lees op nl.wp: "Op 12 juli 2005 besloot het college van burgemeester en wethouders dat Bureau Monumenten & Archeologie moest verhuizen naar "De Bazel", het voormalig kantoor van de Nederlandsche Handel-Maatschappij. Deze verhuizing vond plaats in 2007." dus dat oude adres is nu ook verouderde / onjuiste en irrelevante info op deze manier. Zou ook aangepast moeten worden, of gewoon verwijderen?. Naschrift: Het adres heb ik net verwijderd en ook het engelstalige label verwijderd en de onderste tekst ontkoppeld en alles in de betreffende cat geplaatst. Dat bleek een subcategorie van Stadsarchief Amsterdam te zijn, gevestigd in gebouw De Bazel. Groet. Peli (talk) 11:52, 24 October 2024 (UTC)

Duplicate claims in structured data
[edit]Hello, I noticed that your bot is designed to remove duplicate claims from structured data, which is a valuable contribution—thank you for this important work! However, I came across a file where not all duplicates were removed. Specifically, for this image File:Campus_Arena_Kallerud_(front).jpg#P170, the property creator (P170) still contains duplicates. I just wanted to bring this to your attention. Wishing you a great day ahead! - Premeditated (talk) 07:41, 20 November 2024 (UTC)

[edit]This file may be deleted. |
A file that you have uploaded to Wikimedia Commons, File:Rouwadvertentie op prikbord met de Nederlandse naam Bartels - Cape Coast - 20373108 - RCE.jpg, is a derivative work, containing an "image within an image". Examples of such works would include a photograph of a sculpture, a scan of a magazine cover, or a map that has been altered from the original. In each of these cases, the rights of the creator of the original must be considered, as well as those of the creator of the derivative work.
While the description page states who made this derivative work, it currently doesn't specify who created the original work, so the overall copyright status is unclear. If you did not create the original work depicted in this image, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. Please edit the file description and add the missing information, or the file may be deleted. If you created the original content yourself, enter this information as the source. If someone else created the content, the source should be the address to the web page where you found it, the name and ISBN of the book you scanned it from, or similar. You should also name the author, provide verifiable information to show that the content is in the public domain or has been published under a free license by its author, and add an appropriate template identifying the public domain or licensing status, if you have not already done so. Please add the required information for this and other files you have uploaded before adding more files. If you need assistance, please ask at the help desk. Thank you! |
