Double licence ?

Hello ! I'd like to ask you whether you would consider to double-licence your GFDL images under the Cc-by-sa-2.5 as well ? See Image:BD-propagande.jpg or [1] for rationals... thanks ! Rama 06:49, 18 October 2005 (UTC)

Commons-l subscription

Hello Morven,

as per Commons talk:Administrators, I am asking all admins to subscribe to commons-l, a mailing list for Wikimedia Commons policy and project discussion. Since many admins are only on Commons infrequently, this is a good way to alert people about important happenings. The mailing list is nominally multilingual, but predominantly English.

If you are already subscribed to commons-l, I apologize for bothering you, and you are free to ignore this message. If you don't want to use your regular e-mail account, feel free to leave me a message, and I can send you a GMail invite. Traffic on the mailing list is relatively low, and we do not expect admins to read all messages to the list, but it would be nice if you could check on it at least every few weeks. Thanks for your time,--Eloquence 23:07, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

I cropped uploaded this image of yours that was on Flickr. I thought I would let you know so that if ever saw the need for the image on here, you don't need to do it yourself. Regards, howcheng {chat} 17:28, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

Admin news

Hello,

If you consent for statistics to be published about your actions as an administrator, please sign here: Commons:Administrator permission for statistics. (I expect that most people will not have a problem with it unless you are especially concerned with privacy.)

Also, please be aware that we now have a Commons:Administrators' noticeboard. Please put it on your watchlist, if you haven't already!

cheers, pfctdayelise (translate?) 05:33, 7 September 2006 (UTC) P.S.: Pardon if this is a repeat (bot debugging...)

Some images of yours awaiting Flickr review

• Image:Beach volleyball-Huntington Beach-California 1.jpg
• Image:Beach volleyball-Huntington Beach-California 2.jpg
• Image:Beach volleyball-Huntington Beach-California 4.jpg

I believe you have deleted these from Flickr so the bot got confused. I'm sure they're all CC-BY-SA but could you put your stamp of approval on them? Thanks. howcheng {chat} 21:58, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

Astonished

I found your Santa Clara Depot pictures on Flickr (http://www.flickr.com/photos/morven/149702278/) and was astonished to see that you didn't license them CC-BY-SA. Of course, by the time I noticed, I had already uploaded it to Commons. Was this an oversight on your part or are you really changing your standard Flickr licensing? I was going to put it into the Santa Clara Depot article, but if you don't want it here, feel free to delete it. Thanks. howcheng {chat} 19:50, 9 March 2007 (UTC)

Administrative notice

Deutsch

Hi. This message is sent out to you because you are an administrator on Commons, and you made little use (or no use) of the admin tools lately: less than 5 times in the last five months.

Commons has a new policy on admin activity, Commons:Administrators/De-adminship, taken into use on June 13, 2007 (after a poll among users). According to that policy, admins who use their tools infrequently will be asked whether they still need their adminship, and if they do not respond or require them the removal of the tools will be requested.

If you feel you still need your admin tools, please sign at Commons:Administrators/Inactivity section within 30 days from the date this message was sent out. However, if you then don't make 5 admin actions in the following 5 months, you will lose the adminship without any notice.

This is not a comment on the considerable help you have given to the project in the past but reflects the wish of the community to see active administrators and to ensure that possible security breaches are minimized.

This message is sent out by bot. If you want to give feedback on it, you can do so here — 08:50, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

How about you and I create a proposed policy and then hold a vote with a two-week deadline amongst ourselves on whether it should be policy or not? — Omegatron 23:35, 12 August 2007 (UTC)

Image Tagging Image:GE C44-9W BNSF 4617-jpg.jpg

This media may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:GE C44-9W BNSF 4617-jpg.jpg. I notice the image page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the media on Wikimedia Commons (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page. If the content is a derivative of a copyrighted work, you need to supply the names and a licence of the original authors as well.

If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag, then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then you can use {{self|cc-by-sa-3.0}} to release it under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike license or {{PD-self}} to release it into the public domain. See Commons:Copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

Note that any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have uploaded other media, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. You can find all your uploads using the Gallery tool. Thank you. --Filnik 20:00, 29 September 2007 (UTC)

Even Wetten -> Eskil Ervik

Hi, I respond here on the deletion request of Image:Even Wetten (2004).jpg because you reacted on the request. My request was not only about the bad quality of the photo, but also about the wrong file name. The speedskater is Eskil Ervik (NOR) instead of Even Wetten (NOR). So, if the photo will be kept than the file name has to be changed. McSmit (talk) 14:06, 1 December 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading File:Kodak Pony 828.jpg. This media is missing permission information. A source is given, but there is no proof that the author or copyright holder agreed to license the file under the given license. Please provide a link to an appropriate webpage with license information, or ask the author or copyright holder to send an email with copy of a written permission to VRT (permissions-commons@wikimedia.org). You may still be required to go through this procedure even if you are the author yourself; please see Commons:But it's my own work! for more details. After you emailed permission, you may replace the {{No permission since}} tag with {{subst:PP}} on file description page. Alternatively, you may click on "Challenge speedy deletion" below the tag if you wish to provide an argument why evidence of permission is not necessary in this case. Please see this page for more information on how to confirm permission, or if you would like to understand why we ask for permission when uploading work that is not your own, or work which has been previously published (regardless of whether it is your own). The file probably has been deleted. If you sent a permission, try to send it again after 14 days. Do not re-upload. When the VRT-member processes your mail, the file can be undeleted. Additionally you can request undeletion here, providing a link to the File-page on Commons where it was uploaded ([[:File:Kodak Pony 828.jpg]]) and the above demanded information in your request.

One Morven to another

10 Sept 2010

My name is also Morven I live in the UK and am a self employed artist. In term time I work with our local college teaching art, but this term I am working in the roll of Learning Support. This week I was informed one of the courses was photography, using black and white film and using the dark room. So I got out my old camera and decided as a matter of interest to look it up on the internet. I was so surprised to click on the camera’s image and see my own name come up. Further investigation proved to confirm I have a namesake with the same camera. I got my camera originally to take photographs of dogs mostly, and other animals as I artist use photographic images as an aid to my own commissioned work. I also take photographs of landscape images for the same purpose. I replaced this camera some time ago with a D1x. Basically so as I could see the images on the computer and choose the best without waiting for the developing process.But I hel onto my fathfull Olimpus MD CM1 as it had always served me well. www.artistmorven.co.uk
