[edit] Overijse school Processiestraat.jpg

Hello, I changed the categories for this image because those seem to be simple buildings, not schools. your individual claim that "this is a school" is not enough. What it the name of this school? Further, there are two buildings in the picture, so one of them ought to be a "non-school building". That's why I thought that the category "Buildings in Belgium" is better. I hope you understand.--Sanomi (talk) 20:04, 3 January 2010 (UTC)

I added a note to the image, so when you move the cursor over the image you see that the building in the center is the school called "Gemeentelijke Basisschool Overijse". On the left you see a very small part of the Market Hall. Therefore I find it important to have the category "Schools in Belgium". Regards, Wouter (talk) 20:58, 3 January 2010 (UTC)

[edit] More specific category for File:Hets i mörker, 3.jpg

Hi! I noticed you placed File:Hets i mörker, 3.jpg into Category:Sweden. I'm one of the users trying to keep that category and many of its subcategories in an orderly state, and as you can see, this is currently the only photo that has not been placed into a more specific subcategory.

Unfortunately the file does not contain a useful description, and I don't recognise what it depicts. Since you knew that it was taken in or somehow related to Sweden, I am hoping that you can assist with information on where in Sweden it was taken, or how it otherwise relates to Sweden. Cheers! LX (talk, contribs) 01:27, 17 January 2010 (UTC)

Working on Category:Media needing categories I saw this photo and found it worthwhile to add a category. Using Google translate I found out that the title of the file was in Swedish. So I hoped that by adding the category "Sweden" somebody in Sweden could give a more specific category. I have seen that now categories about the subject have been added. Cheers Wouter (talk) 09:23, 17 January 2010 (UTC)

[edit] Fundação Berardo

Hello, thanks for noticing me at wiki-pt. Here is the website of the place: [1]. The property was formerly known as Monte Palace Hotel, and after it passed to the Berardo Foundation became known, at least among us, natives of the island, as Fundação Berardo, though perhaps it isn't exactly correct as the foundation is much larger than that. Maybe the category name should be changed to "Monte Palace", or "Monte Palace Tropical garden", what do you think?

The place includes an African art and a gem (geology) museum (you can view that under "Museu Monte Palace" link), and many sculptures, Oriental art, ruins, etc. are on display at the gardens, along with the Guinness vase which was incorrectly described as being in the Botanical Garden.

Best regards, --Darwinius (talk) 09:21, 8 March 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for the information. I think that renaming to "Monte Palace Tropical Garden (Funchal)" may be better. Also a paragraph in en:Monte (Funchal) may be useful. Best regards, Wouter (talk) 09:57, 8 March 2010 (UTC)
Done, finally. :) Cheers, --Darwin (talk) 02:44, 1 August 2010 (UTC)

Dear Wouter, the picture shows Echium angustifolium. The flowers are Echium-like, slightly zygomorphic. See here for Alkanna sieberi. Best wishes -RLJ (talk) 11:43, 10 April 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for the information. I will change it. Do you have experience with plants of Crete? I have seen that you just became a user of Commons. Success. Wouter (talk) 18:05, 10 April 2010 (UTC)
Yes, I have. I have made intensive fieldwork on the island for more than one year, and I have published several scientific papers on the flora of Crete. See my activites on the German Wikipedia. Kind regards -RLJ (talk) 22:54, 10 April 2010 (UTC)
May be you can add on your user page in Commons a link to de:Benutzer:RLJ. Regards, Wouter (talk) 07:50, 11 April 2010 (UTC)
Done! I had a look at your plant photos from Crete and found all your other pictures correctly determined. Chalk_quarry_crete_A.jpg and Chalk_quarry_crete_B.jpg show a gypsum quarry, according to geological maps. Best regards -RLJ (talk) 09:33, 11 April 2010 (UTC)

[edit] Tervuren Hoefijzer

Hallo Wouter, perhaps you don't live too far from Tervuren. I'd like to write an article about the lost castle of the dukes of Brabant and its residual, the Hoefijzer. Seen from the Voer lake, the Hoefijzer looks very impressive, you know. Until today, I didn't know that its merely baracks, I thought, it were the royal summer residence. So I'd prefer to have a photo of that impressive view (lake with Hoefijzer) as a starter for the article. Last summer and this March, I passed Tervuren and the lake by bike, but both times I had other priorities than taking photos. And I live in Bremen.

Yours' sincerely, Ulamm (talk) 12:29, 2 May 2010 (UTC)

Hallo Ulamm. Indeed I do no live too far from Tervuren, but I have been there only once to take photos. I do not know where Kaserne Panquin (Hoefijzer) is. Could you give me the coordinates for example by using Google Earth? May be that I have the opportunity to go there to take photos. Best regards, Wouter (talk) 13:57, 2 May 2010 (UTC)
Thank you for your quick answer. I was not so quick, as I'm occupied by preparing a recommendation and presentation of a cycle track between Brussels and Cologne.
It is metrically 56,3130 North 6,0675 East (lilac figures on the topographic map). By 360° it is 50°49'25 North 4°30'45 East. If you stand on the northeastern end of lake "Kasteelvijver" and look towards Tervuren town, you see it like a palace over and behind the trees of the small peninsula that bore the true castle, before that one was torn down in late 18th century.--Ulamm (talk) 09:42, 15 May 2010 (UTC)
From your description I expect that it is like the photo on http://commondatastorage.googleapis.com/static.panoramio.com/photos/original/31902860.jpg or http://www.panoramio.com/photo/31902860 Is that right? (from the coordinates 56,3130 North 6,0675 East and 50°49'25 North 4°30'45 East I arrived at other places). Wouter (talk) 20:32, 15 May 2010 (UTC)
Yes, it is that bilding, seen from the northern end of the Kasteel Vijver. The photos, you've found, even show the site of the true castle, in the aisle between lake and building. I think, the building looks higher, if the photo is taken from a longer distance, using a zoom.--Ulamm (talk) 11:20, 17 May 2010 (UTC)
I have taken photos and I hope that a suitable one for you is amongst them. File:Tervuren Kasteelvijver A.jpg gives an overview, File:Tervuren Kasteelvijver B.jpg is more zoomed in. From the building you cannot see much because of the trees. For other photos see File:Tervuren Kasteelvijver C.jpg, File:Tervuren Kasteelvijver D.jpg and File:Tervuren Kasteelvijver E.jpg.

Hoi, zou je willen kijken naar nl:Overleg_Wikipedia:Beleid_voor_gebruik_van_media/Postzegels#Klopt_dit_wel_.3F. TheDJ (talk) 17:01, 15 May 2010 (UTC)

Ik heb te weinig rechtskennis om hier zinvol op te kunnen reageren. Voor mij is het dat voor Commons we goed zitten als we rekening houden met 70 jaar "wachten". Dus in 2058 kunnen we de postzegels van 1988 zonder probleem uploaden. Wouter (talk) 17:34, 15 May 2010 (UTC)

[edit] Re: Description template

Hi! I found interesting the changes you made to the category about Pizzo. The template I use (I'm not the creator, you should talk to User:Luigi Chiesa for translation issues and so on) to add a description in a municipality (comune) category lacks most of languages. Moreover, the names of the comuni have to be transliterated in other alphabets for Russian, Ukrainian, Japanese and other languages. All these changes should be done manually, but it's a lot of work! I'm drawing the maps of the location of all comuni within their provinces, and creating a category for each of them (or simply adding the template if it already exists)... There are 8,094 comuni in Italy, so you can figure out how big the work is! So I use a script for making the edits (but I still control the names manually to avoid ambiguities). If you find a way to make the changes you propose automatically, you're welcome! :-) Otherwise, I can't do all this work alone! Best regards, -- Vonvikken (talk) 23:05, 26 June 2010 (UTC)

Hi! Yes, my script has the issue you described, it replaces all the content of the category with a predefined template that includes only the Italian link. Before running the script, however, I check whether there are additional categories to restore (as I did here) or not, but I forget to do the same thing with the interwikis. On the other hand, most of these categories don't even have the Italian link, so it hasn't been such a bad problem so far... :-) Thanks for telling me about the sum-it-up, I'll use it next time, and I will check also the interwikis. Best regards, -- Vonvikken (talk) 13:04, 28 June 2010 (UTC)

[edit] patrolling

yeaaa, thaks for helping with patroling!

right, if you go to this page Commons:Counter_Vandalism_Unit, you will see all the patrolls to be done. But there is a really really good program for this. You need to add a line to your script page like I have done. See here: http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Amada44/vector.js. I have seen yours is at http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Wouterhagens/monobook.js so add it there. If you have done that and cleared your cache then you can click here and you will have a wonderful tool for patrolling. I was just adding this to your page when I got your message ;-) so any question, ask, I am online! Amada44  talk to me 19:29, 8 August 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for the explanation. I found out that I had to include the code for monobook.js. Clicking on here gives a nice start of the program with a turning wheel. Pressing on 'Apply' turns the button faint, but nothing happens (the turning wheel keeps rotating). I already closed Firefox 3.6.8 and started again. Do you know what to do? Thanks, Wouter (talk) 09:11, 9 August 2010 (UTC)
try clearing your cache, that often helps. Try deactivating this IRCBL (upper right corner) or click here. We will get this to work!! Amada44  talk to me 09:43, 9 August 2010 (UTC)
Problem solved. Your link worked and mine did not. The difference was the IRCBL. Deactivating the IRCBL did not work; is was not "accepted", the URL remained the same. I made a bookmark of the working link. Thanks! Wouter (talk) 11:26, 9 August 2010 (UTC)

[edit] Patrol error

Hi - earlier today you marked a page as patrolled created by an IP with the only content being "A short movie director. Has completed The Fl and currently busy with Monday Evening." This is certainly not within scope. Sadly as it was marked as patrolled it was less easy to find. Thanks --Herby talk thyme 13:49, 3 September 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for the comment. I tried to find the page with that description "A short movie director. Has completed The Fl and currently busy with Monday Evening", but could not find it. If possible, could you please give me the link to that page? I like to see why I considered it wrongly as patrolled. Thanks. Wouter (talk) 13:59, 3 September 2010 (UTC)
I deleted it but have undeleted it now and it is here so that you can see it (I'll deleted it again later unless someone else does. Thanks --Herby talk thyme 14:14, 3 September 2010 (UTC)
Thanks. Probably I know why I did it. I use Krinkle Real-Time Recent Changes. Seeing it is a new page, so nothing is deleted or changed (vandalism), it is not yet doing real harm provided the user adds further information, categories, etc. But indeed the page as it is now, is out of scope. You can delete it again. Thanks for the info. Wouter (talk) 14:29, 3 September 2010 (UTC)
May be best to treat "new pages" differently to usual patrolling I guess. Thanks --Herby talk thyme 15:40, 3 September 2010 (UTC)

[edit] Pyke Koch

Dear Wouter, why are nl:Pyke Kochs (died 1991) stampdesigns like this one PD-old? Greets Sonty567 (talk) 15:44, 19 September 2010 (UTC)

See [2]. There is mentioned :"Prior to 1 January 1989, the government-owned corporation PTT made the stamps as being created by the company and as such was considered their author." So all stamps of 2009-70=1939 or earlier are copyright free. Wouter (talk) 20:04, 19 September 2010 (UTC)
Dear Wouter. An apology first of all for my late reaction. I have read and tried to understand the (non-)copyrightstatus of these stamps. It seems to me you are right (IANAL). A second apology to the editting of these files from my side, I really thought it was copyright. Thank you for explaining the PD-status and keep up the good work. Regards.

[edit] Category:Lech Wałęsa‎

I think there is a difference between the interwikis for Category:Lech Wałęsa and interwikis for the page Lech Wałęsa -- Alan ffm (talk) 15:36, 8 October 2010 (UTC)

In my opinion it is good to have all existing interwikis both with the pages and the categories. If there is a "category-interwiki" as with Lech Wałęsa in the Polish Wikipedia, it is better to use that with categories in Commons. The main purpose is that users can find additional information as easy as possible. For example Category:Poznań does not have any interwiki link to a category. To delete for that reason all interwiki links is not a good idea in my opinion. Best regards, Wouter (talk) 17:56, 8 October 2010 (UTC)

I think the user can get additional information from the corresponding Wikipedia articles already. So it is not necessary to repeat the same information on the category. However, I did add additional names (e.g. multilingual, or alternate name), so as to facilitate searching (to allow user to locate the category using non-English name or alternate name). --Minghong (talk) 02:50, 8 December 2010 (UTC)

Dank, dat was inderdaad het probleem.

Bedankt Foroa en jij ook nog de beste wensen. De SeealsoDisambig is handig. Ook om tegelijkertijd plaatjes uit niet bestaande categorieën te halen. Ik heb gelijk het bij Category:San Juan gezet waar ik eergisteren al een 'NOTE' had gezet. Merkwaardig dat Category:San Juan, Argentina destijds is verwijderd. Een reden kon ik niet vinden. Wouter (talk) 16:28, 6 January 2011 (UTC)
Category:San Juan, Argentina is verhuisd naar Category:San Juan City (Argentina) (een foute generatie van de mineralen bot mindat). Natuurlijk gaat die San Juan ook moeten hernoemd worden.

[edit] Female writers

Why did you create Category:Female writers from Sweden? Who wants this category? We already have category:Women of Sweden and Category:Men of Sweden to indicate gender. Now most Swedish writers are visible in Category:Writers from Sweden, but some of the women are hidden in a subcategory. There is no parallel category for male writers. That's unfair. There is no point in subdividing writers by gender. I suggest we remove your new category, and keep all in Category:Writers from Sweden. --LA2 (talk) 14:01, 22 February 2011 (UTC)

I agree on that too. Moreover, if we have to create for all occupations, functions and roles a female version, we double or triple the number of categories: useless complications to me. --Foroa (talk) 14:44, 22 February 2011 (UTC)
For me that is fine, but I suggest to remove all 14 Female writers by country categories as well as the 18 Female politicians by country before more are created by others. Wouter (talk) 16:20, 22 February 2011 (UTC)
I agree, but I care most about the Swedish ones. --LA2 (talk) 19:24, 22 February 2011 (UTC)
Just an idea/suggestion. Create a "Female writers from Sweden" gallery and a "Male writers from Sweden" gallery. In each gallery ONLY ONE image of a writer and as description the name and the year of birth (if known). When there exists a category of a writer, this description can be made as a link to that category. The images sorted on the DEFAULTSORT-name of the writer. If the gallery becomes too large they can be subdived in ranges of year of births. For example before 1950, between 1950 and 1970, etc. An interwikilink to sv:Kategori:Svenskspråkiga författare may be useful. Wouter (talk) 07:15, 23 February 2011 (UTC)
This is a lot of extra work for no good reason. We're trying to categorize images to make them easier to find, not playing hide-and-seek games. --LA2 (talk) 17:18, 28 February 2011 (UTC)

[edit] Block IP

You should block this IP for editing/uploading unless signed in, if it isn't already for the commons. I know it is for the encyclopedia, but im unsure it that would automatically block the other wiki media as well. Reason for blocking: This IP is the standard IP for every computer and laptop in Westfield high school. Don't trust these kids. Allow them to log in and edit if they have an account because I work from here sometimes.

[edit] Pavilion from Finland

Hi! I saw you were in Expo'58. Do you have any photo of the pavilion from Finland? If so, could you upload it? Thank you!--Unai Fdz. de Betoño (talk) 19:51, 5 February 2012 (UTC)

I don't have a photo of the pavilion from Finland. I have scanned all relevant photos I took and uploaded them to Commons. At that time I was careful to take too much photos because of the costs. Wouter (talk) 21:10, 5 February 2012 (UTC)
OK! Thank you!--Unai Fdz. de Betoño (talk) 11:55, 7 February 2012 (UTC)
