Question regarding upload video to commons

Hello Yann, I am keeping message to you as you earlier suggested me usage of ".webm" to upload video on Commons (and I remember you from vital article project on Enwiki BTW:) )

I have question to you. What can I do if I am not able to upload video via ".webm"? I have on my mind video which is 132 MB and slightly over one minute. Unfortunately, I could not upload it to Commons so far. Earlier I successfully uploaded very short video (few seconds) and I am thankful you for an advice but this time something went wrong, not sure what, and I do not know which various attempts I can try to upload longer video. What can I do to find solution? Regards. 19:00, 10 October 2023 (UTC) Dawid2009 (talk) 19:00, 10 October 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

@Dawid2009: video2commons was broken, and is back again. Yann (talk) 19:32, 10 October 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

"You may be blocked soon" - NorthTension

Hi, so I finally got around to looking at the talk pageCommons:Deletion requests/File:Dr Edward wiki page.pdf messages you sent me, were these all automated or was the message claiming I was uploading files despite requests not to do so, but the only time I got any kind of notification about this was that post alongside 13 other messages.

I uploaded these on behalf of my friend who has since made his own account but is still waiting on confirmation of his COM:CONSENT email for a month now. NorthTension (talk) 08:45, 11 October 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Misspelling in sheet name

Hi Yann, at File:1223 Échallens.jpg, I fixed the sheet name (compare with the list of sheets and the name as written on the map itself). The spelling appears to differ from the way it would be written if the place was in France. Can you rename the file accordingly? I noticed you removed my request. Enhancing999 (talk) 09:44, 11 October 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

@Enhancing999: No, the proper spelling is Échallens. Yann (talk) 09:46, 11 October 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
I just noticed your comment on my talk page. I'd think Office fédéral de topographie is the better source for spelling of place names in Switzerland than English Wikipedia. "E/É" is a known difference of spelllings between Suisse and France. In any case, aren't the files named in the way Swisstopo names them? Enhancing999 (talk) 09:50, 11 October 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
@Enhancing999: Accents are often omitted on capitals, and Wikipedia is a valid reference here. I will rename the category. Yann (talk) 09:53, 11 October 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
It's a place name and you need to provide a valid reference if you want to differ from the reference I provided. Wikipedia can't be a reference unless it provides them. Place names in Switzerland are generally written without accents on capitals. Anything else would be an exonym. Thus, please don't proliferate this further. Enhancing999 (talk) 09:56, 11 October 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
@Enhancing999: "Place names in Switzerland are generally written without accents on capitals." Where did you get that? You request a reference, but you make while claims without any. Yann (talk) 09:59, 11 October 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
See "Echallens" on File:1223 Échallens.jpg or any other on Swisstopo maps. Enhancing999 (talk) 10:01, 11 October 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
@Enhancing999: You need to be consistent. Zürich is spelled with a umlaut, not Zurich, so Échallens needs an accent. Yann (talk) 10:05, 11 October 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
There is no accent placed by French people on the capital "Z".
Swisstopo knows about accents on capital letters for place names in France, such as "Évian", see File:1263_Évian.jpg.
Unless we can find a reference for your planned renames, we need to stick with "Echallens". Enhancing999 (talk) 10:15, 11 October 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
I could find as many references for Échallens or Echallens, and French Wikipedia says that both spelling exist, yet the article is titled with an accent. I disgree that Wikipedia is not a valid reference. It is certainly more valid than most other sources. Yann (talk) 10:36, 11 October 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Wikipedia can obviously make their own editorial choices, based on references they prefer. It's unclear how they reference it though. Swisstopo writes "Echallens", "Évian" and "Zürich" and I don't see why we'd differ from that.
Most bibliographies wouldn't spell book titles differently because Paris wouldn't write it the same way. Oddly, French Wikipedia does that. Enhancing999 (talk) 11:09, 11 October 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
I don't understand why you talk about Paris. This is related to language, not the country. This issue is often encountered on the French Wikisource, where book titles don't write the accents on capitals, often due to technical shortcomings of Typesetting. Yet proper spelling requires an accent on capitals. With digital typesetting, there is no reason to omit the accents. Yann (talk) 11:21, 11 October 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
According to your commment, French Wikipedia says that both spellings exist, but they don't seem to follow thorough on that conclusion and replace one with the other in their bibliography.
Swisstopo is clearly aware of that and probably also the people from Echallens, yet they spelled it differently than people would in Paris. So I'd rather avoid the exonym and leave it with the official spellings "Echallens", "Évian" and "Zürich". Enhancing999 (talk) 11:48, 11 October 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

File:JamyJamess2018.jpg

Hi. You recently deleted File:JamyJamess2018.jpg with the reason as "per COM:SPEEDY". The file seems to have been tagged as a copyvio by User:Doclys, who only linked to a Google image search, most results of which were Wikipedia scrapers. Is there any clear evidence as to where the image originated from? --Paul_012 (talk) 14:31, 11 October 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

OK, converted to a regular DR. Yann (talk) 14:45, 11 October 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

File:Dr Edward wiki page.pdf

Hi. So, Deletion Notification Bot 2 didn't come along soon enough to notify the uploader, as it usually does. You might have just fixed that. Opening this dr instead and then immediately close it yourself seems a bit bureaucratic, though. So, what exactly was your point? Wutsje 17:56, 12 October 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

@Wutsje: Uploader was not informed, which is mandatory for all deletion requests. Converting to a regular DR is the easier way to to do that. Otherwise I would need hours to delete all files. Yann (talk) 19:09, 12 October 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Suppresion d'une image de carte postale

Bonjour, c'est à propos de la suppression du fichier WikiCommons d'une carte postal sur le baptême d'une locomotive : File:Bapthême d'une locomotive de type BB 15000, au blason de la ville de Livry-Gargan.jpg, sous prétexte qu'elle présentait une supposé "infraction" aux droits d'auteurs alors qu'en réalité cette image était tout à fait libre de droit, aucune violation de droit d'auteur n'a été commise, à l'instar de toutes les cartes postales anciennes qui circulent sur Wikipédia pour l'illustration d'articles, ce type d'image circule de partout sur internet sans qu'il est possible de trouver le véritable site original, rien avoir avec une photo ou un document numérique personnel, les cartes postales anciennes sont dépourvus de droits d'auteurs en raison de leurs ancienneté. Merci d'annuler cette suppression et de rétablir le fichier s'il vous plaît. Cordialement. Capella RR4 (talk) 16:02, 13 October 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

@Capella RR4: Désolé, mais une carte postale (ou tout autre document) de 1987 n'est pas dans le domaine public en France (libre de droits, ça ne veut rien dire). Si l'auteur est anonyme, ce sera dans le domaine public le 1er janvier 2058, 70 ans après la publication. Sinon ce sera 70 ans après la mort de l'auteur. Merci de lire et respecter COM:France. Yann (talk) 21:29, 13 October 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Half-tile(s)

Where did you get the name "Nauders" for 2180 ? In one list, I found it as "Samnaun Ost". Apparently they name partial tiles according to the one they expand in the print version and the direction in German: i.e. "Samnaun" towards "Ost" (East). On the index I added a few others I found (some without names though).

When adding 2180 to a grid table, I found it hard to position, given the format. I wonder if it isn't preferable to keep them with the blank areas they come with. Personally, I always crop of borders, but here it might be worth keeping it. Enhancing999 (talk) 08:57, 14 October 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

@Enhancing999: There was no name for 2180, so I choose one among the most probable ones, but thanks for renaming if you found the proper name.
I cropped it, as I think people will think that the file is broken if not cropped. Yann (talk) 11:51, 15 October 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Yes, there can be a lot of blank space around it (e.g. Simplon Ost or Zermatt Süd). Maybe we should have both versions. To assemble the tiles, it's easier when they are in the standard format, possibly with a transparent background for the empty parts. How shall we name them? Enhancing999 (talk) 11:58, 15 October 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
We can use File:2180_Nauders.jpg and File:2180_Nauders (cropped).jpg, or File:2180_Nauders.jpg and File:2180_Nauders (full).jpg. Yann (talk) 12:04, 15 October 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
I'd use "2180 Samnaun Ost.jpg" for one and "(full)", "(tile)", "(cropped)" or "(map)" in the other.
None is really ideal. The name chosen for the full tile should be in Template:Sheets Swisstopo 25000. Enhancing999 (talk) 12:31, 15 October 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
I guess we could also use "2180 Samnaun Ost.jpg" for the full tile and "2180 Nauders.jpg" or "Nauders (Swisstopo Map Raster 25 sheet 2180).jpg" for the crop (Nauders and not Samnaun actually being shown in the title). Enhancing999 (talk) 12:42, 15 October 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
@Enhancing999: OK, as you like. Yann (talk) 12:44, 15 October 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Category renaming

Please initiate a proper discussion if you want to change the name of a category. Merely adding rename requests to the bot isn't appropriate when you are aware that the change is disputed. Enhancing999 (talk) 11:45, 15 October 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

@Enhancing999: As I said, we usually adopt the spelling used in Wikipedia, unless there is a consensus saying otherwise. Yann (talk) 11:48, 15 October 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
There seems to be divergence between Wikipedias. In Wikimedia projects, we generally expect contributors to form a consensus before we want to implement a change. Please do so too. If all you can provide is a blog entry to support your position, I find this a bit light, especially as you appear to upload works of Swiss topography.
