[edit]

I have a new version of the file, and may make some edits to the file for improvement. Zamand Karim (talk) 21:30, 26 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Can you link to your version? Also some license issues with this file. Source says "all rights reserved" which may be copyfraud, but there is no publication information on this 1950s-1960s photograph and the current license is wrong. Abzeronow (talk) 16:37, 27 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I have the same image of this file, but higher quality + original frames (I think mine is the original) I have difficulty to getting the image, and I have made some interface edits to my file, I don't know how to show you this until I'm overwriting the file. This file is widely used throughout Kurdistan, Iran and Iraq in public places, websites, cultural centers, events, government materials, and in various designs, eg: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7, no one owns it; the original file has no clear publication information, but given its extensive and widespread use, it's effectively part of the public domain in the region (maybe Iran) + it may date back to the 1950s or 60s, 'couse the person of the image died in 1972. to the best of my knowledge, the correct license for this file should be like this file, which is the same person.

1. Correcting Boundaries:

File:Municipio de Ensenada en 2020.png (Preview; Adjusting to actual Ensenada-San Quintin boundaries according to INEGI 2020-2022)

✓ Done Abzeronow (talk) 16:47, 27 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]


2. Map quality and some issues corrected

File:Bajacaliforniamapa.png (Preview)

File:Bajacaliforniamapanuevo.png (Preview; current file is the same as previous, so I think this one should have current boundaries, and the previous one 2020-2022 boundaries, unless merge is considered)

1st ✓ Done, 2nd  Not done Abzeronow (talk) 16:47, 27 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Could I overwrite the second one with this one (Preview; it is identical to the previous one, but the only difference is that this one has its INEGI codes, otherwise they would be exact duplicates, or the second one would not have the official limits). XIC123 (talk) 18:16, 27 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
OK, ✓ Done Abzeronow (talk) 18:36, 27 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The 1st one I moved as requested, but I didn't leave a redirect in case you wanted to do a map with current boundaries under that name. Abzeronow (talk) 00:44, 28 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
OK, list 4 and the file of list 5 are still pending, they are rather higher res maps keeping municipal boundaries. XIC123 (talk) 01:30, 28 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The files in list 4 that start with Baja and Gemeente are done. I'll finish the rest tomorrow. Abzeronow (talk) 01:45, 28 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]


3. Updated Boundaries (If they are kept as independent files because of they're historic then I could also improve map quality as the Ensenada 2020 file)

File:Baja California Municipalities.png (Preview)

@GalaxyFighter55: do you agree to an overwrite? Abzeronow (talk) 16:42, 28 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not sure I am following, what seems to be the issue here with the existing file in regards to "black" and "white"? The only thing I can tell I messed up on was the Crunchyroll logo got slightly de-smoothed during the svg file conversion. If it's anything to do with fixing that issue, then I would happily allow for an overwrite.--GalaxyFighter55 (talk) 18:34, 28 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Allow overwriting of File:Et-Eesti.ogg

[edit]

This is a low quality non-native pronunciation of the native name of Estonia. I uploaded a higher quality native pronunciation a couple years ago, but to my surprise I discovered that the better pronunciation I uploaded has been split into a different file, and this low-quality pronunciation file is still used pretty much everywhere. I would like to undo this split and restore the accurate pronunciation. Joonas07 (talk) 16:37, 28 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'm guessing the other file is File:Et-Eesti-female.oga ? Abzeronow (talk) 16:53, 28 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Yes Joonas07 (talk) 16:55, 28 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
 Not done They should remain as two separate files. Abzeronow (talk) 17:08, 28 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
So you believe the inaccurate pronunciation should stay on the platform and be used in many Wiki projects? Joonas07 (talk) 17:21, 28 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I believe that I cannot overule Wiki projects which files they should or should not use, and I also believe that COM:OW doesn't allow such an overwrite. This is not a judgement of quality as I do think your file is an improvement but if you want your file to be used more than the other one, you'll have to replace usage manually. Abzeronow (talk) 17:28, 28 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The page from where the same logo was extracted is now in a better resolution that I have already downloaded and I want to upload it to replace the current model. It is exactly the same logo, it has no difference but the dimensions. Cifras Confiables (talk) 19:19, 28 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I have found a higher-resolution version here. Notably, it's description contradicts the one currently in place. Once I have uploaded the new version, I will give it an updated infobox and note the discrepancy. Nicknimh (talk) 21:15, 28 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The copyright terms of https://jcpml.curtin.edu.au/collections/use/ don't seem to support the CC license given for the file. Abzeronow (talk) 17:16, 29 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
You are correct that it should not be CC BY-SA 4.0; good catch. However, given that the photo is dated to 1944 and the author is unknown—it's listed as the JCPML, but they're clearly not the real author given that the JCPML was established in 1998—it appears that this photo is PD under Australian law. With your assent, I will update the license info along with the other edits I was planning to make, as well as the re-upload. Nicknimh (talk) 21:28, 30 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
