Crisco, with any luck someone will have come along and taken care of the matter in the next 2+ hours, but if not, I hope you'll be able to promote at least one prep to queue before 00:00 UTC. Right now, five preps are completely filled and the sixth is getting there. Thanks for taking a look next time you're around. BlueMoonset (talk) 21:16, 8 April 2015 (UTC)
The article on Ulysses S. Grant was featured specifically today because this is the 150th anniversary of the end of the American Civil War. Unfortunately, that fact is not noted under anniversaries; we have
April 9: Maundy Thursday (Eastern Christianity, 2015); Vimy Ridge Day in Canada; Day of National Unity in Georgia (1989); Bataan Day in the Philippines
but nothing about Appomattox. Is it too late to fix that? YoPienso (talk) 04:49, 9 April 2015 (UTC)

Crisco, can you take a look at this one? It was given an X about a month ago, yet it's still sitting there. The article has not been edited since. If there are neutrality issues, obviously it can't proceed; I can't tell whether it's been actually withdrawn, or if the nominator is hoping for another point of view to prevail. Thanks.

Hello. Long time no write again. I don't know if you could do range blocks, but can you block the 203.176.181.* range (203.176.181.0/24). It seems this "Bang Habib"/"Said Muqaffa" guy is using several IPs in the range such as:
As you could remember, this guy is the one who keeps putting bogus Indonesian versions of TV channels and shows and connects unrelated TV stations. Please do this ASAP.

Crisco, can you please take a look at this one? It's in an odd situation in that one source, Wired, seems to be indicating that this new installation is the first art in the New York City subway system to bring natural (outdoor) light into a subway station, while other sources make it clear that there was once a City Hall station that did the same thing (it's apparently still there, but closed). However, the source that would seem to clinch it with photos and everything is a WordPress blog. (I can't get access to the New York Times source that talks about the City Hall station closure.)

You recently updated Template:Did you know/Queue/1 and I'm wondering if you would do me a small favor and replace the {{convert}} template that it uses with the output produced (as can be seen at Special:ExpandTemplates). Specifically, my request is that you replace the first of the following lines with the second.
* ... that '''[[Ha Gorge]]''' in [[Crete]] is about {{Convert|1000|m}} deep and the fissure is said to be one of the largest in the world? * ... that '''[[Ha Gorge]]''' in [[Crete]] is about 1,000 metres (3,300 ft) deep and the fissure is said to be one of the largest in the world?
The reason is that a few hours ago I updated Module:Convert but I can't edit it at the moment because the DYK is protecting the module. Unfortunately, convert has a problem and I'd like to fix it. Alternatively, you might like to copy the fix from Module:Convert/sandbox. I have to admit that the problem is not a big deal so it's fine if this request doesn't appeal, but I'm irritated by the bug. Johnuniq (talk) 07:37, 28 April 2015 (UTC)

Hi Crisco, is this image [11] definitely in the public domain? It was shot by Burton Holmes in 1896 in Greece. It was published in 1901 in his book [12]. As the border of the original upload shows [13], Wikipedia's copy comes from Getty images [14]. This [15] says the image is in the public domain, but I want to be sure (Getty is licensing it for money!). Thanks. Bammesk (talk) 01:55, 30 April 2015 (UTC)

Hi, Crisco
I only made 2 edits to the article, both of which are already referenced by the article's creator.
The first one was to link Phoa's page to that of his famous son-in-law, Khouw Kim An. The relationship is already referenced by the creator of Phoa's page, and is quite well known among historians of colonial Batavia. All I did was to provide the necessary link.
The second edit relates to Phoa's description as a businessman. I prefer to describe him as a landowner given that he owned particuliere landerijen (landed estates). Or, if you prefer, we could use the term "landlord" which the creator of this page also uses in the main body of the article. The creator of Phoa's page has included enough references to establish Phoa's agricultural occupation. My only point of contention is that this agricultural occupation is better described as "landowner" or "landlord" than as "businessman". — Preceding unsigned comment added by Eastindiaman (talk • contribs) 13:56, 4 May 2015 (UTC)

Placing a warning on my talk page was very bad faith. I never deleted anything from any page, I never highlighted or selected anything to delete. I just posted a two word reply. That was it. And I think it's disgusting that you've said that I've been "pissy" with you since the Grande FLC. Please explain to me how, because I've had no contact with you. I've never had a problem with you, so I don't know where you are making this up from. I literally have no idea what is going on here. All I do know is that you and MeowCat are slating me on ANI, accusing me of deleting material and talking bad about me without even making ANY effort to address or talk to me to see what's happened. Instead, you have both just jumped to conclusions and ganged up on me over something that I don't know what happened. — Calvin999 14:54, 8 May 2015 (UTC)
CBS obviously took this photo in 1964, but they recycled it for a network special in 1969. The CBS release tag is there with date and there are no copyright marks on the photo.

Crisco, I've had this image on my user page for a while, and I'd like to add a date to it, or at least an approximate date, but, according to the information on the image file, the painting is undated. There is no article on the English WP about the artist, Rudolf Tschudi, but there is a short article on him on the German Wikipedia, so I can see his dates. Can you give an approximate date for this painting? Do you read German? Maybe you or Sca could translate the article and make a new article on English WP. CorinneSD (talk) 22:45, 11 May 2015 (UTC)
Hi Crisco, after I edit an existing image on Commons say for dead pixels, small rotation, or slight cropping, do I upload the edited image as a "new file" tagged retouched, or as the "new version of the existing file"? for example I will be doing all of that on this image. Bammesk (talk) 02:33, 12 May 2015 (UTC)

Hello! I'm going over some older FAs here or here. As you know, I'm no image expert, but many of the images in the old Australian biographies look very suspect. I'd appreciate your eyes on them to see which ones are safe and which ones should go. Thanks! Sarastro1 (talk) 21:00, 12 May 2015 (UTC)
It's over to you again. WP:FADC, WP:FANDC and the notepad are all up to date as of today. The over-represented TFA areas are still Media, Literature/theatre and Royalty (probably not a lot coming forward for the last-named). We need to keep the war articles coming. Otherwise the representation over the range of dubjects is reasonably OK. Good luck, and happy scheduling. Brianboulton (talk) 15:31, 14 May 2015 (UTC)
There is something fishy about https://www.duhoctrungquoc.vn/wiki/en/Singapore_International_School,_Bandung - it smells like something that was set up temporarily, and for some reason the Jakarta part of the system seems to be the dominant point, and the actual Bandung location looks as though it might not exist, despite the web based info... perhaps it is either an extension of the Jakarta site, or has closed... either way your A status suggests to me a suggested Prod might be of interest in the name of whatever...

Gerda was talking with me about the image, so I checked the description, which said: "like the work of the forger Van Meergeren". If that's true, then it's a 20th-century work, but I don't have any idea whether it's true. - Dank (push to talk) 12:24, 15 May 2015 (UTC)

Evening, I come to you as my resident "he knows about images and stuff" person! File:Grace Lee Whitney Star Trek 1966.JPG is due to run on the main page through DYK in a couple of days, it is currently in Prep area 5. The license tag is one that I haven't seen before, but seems legit, but the source is eBay, and as the listing has now been removed, is a dead link. I'm a bit wary about this, given it's heading toward the main page, what are your thoughts? Harrias talk 18:04, 17 May 2015 (UTC)
There's an image on ja.wp: ja:ファイル:Goshikizuka kofun.jpg that I was about to move to Commons, but I wasn't totally sure about the licensing. The uploader Jonirumansei states that permission had been obtained from the photographer 皿うどん, and another user もんじゃ verified that it was GFDL 1.2, but doesn't there have to be some kind of explicit release from the photographer to do that? I don't see anything like that on the page. Curly Turkey ¡gobble! 23:03, 18 May 2015 (UTC)
File:Stork Club Cub Room November 1944.jpg also see talk page and Commons page. While they're not listed in the UPenn books, this seems to be quite a large block of Life not to have been renewed. It almost seems too good to be true, as they were very prompt and thorough in renewing almost every other issue. Because I have my doubts, I won't refur and re-license the photo as not renewed and am hoping that this won't bring the file to PUF or FFD. Thanks, We hope (talk) 00:32, 19 May 2015 (UTC)
Hi, can you do me a favour and nom this for DYK and mention it is to be shown on 9 June as the lead DYK for the 150th anniversary of Nielsen's birth.♦ Dr. Blofeld 14:32, 15 May 2015 (UTC)
I'm told Crisco that you've planned up the 4 June. It is possible you could keep 9 June in mind for Nielsen, but it's quite a big if, I'm doubtful if it will pass.♦ Dr. Blofeld 12:54, 18 May 2015 (UTC)
@Ipigott: If Crisco is certain that we can't possibly have this as TFA anyway I think we should probably withdraw and open a formal peer review where we can get even greater feedback.

Bought a 1956 book commemorating the 200th anniversary of Yogyakarta. Here are some pictures for the TPSes. — Chris Woodrich (talk) 15:46, 27 May 2015 (UTC)
The Emeco 1006 is a chair famous for being an ultra-durable (ultra-expensive) chair that was originally built for battleships for the marines and bolted to the surface of the ship, before being consumerized. It was popularly believed (though probably not actually true) that they were intended to survive a torpedo blast.
But here's a picture on the Emeco 1006 page that suggests it can't even withstand LA city streets. That is one cheap-looking beat-up chair. The person that uploaded it on Flickr said it was an Emeco 1006 chair, but the chair is also famous for prompting copycats that the company is generally helpless to prevent.
The image's uploader @Sandstein: restored the image here with an edit-summary suggesting a source is required to verify that the image is not of an authentic Emeco chair, but I'm left thinking we need a source verifying that it is, not the other way around. From what I've seen, sourcing requirements to verify the authenticity and description of an image is sort of a grey area.
I thought as someone with a strong focus on images, you might have some interest in this puzzle. I figured the best way to go about it is to just find a better replacement image that we're confident is an image of a genuine Emeco chair. CorporateM (Talk) 17:25, 27 May 2015 (UTC)

I notice you've been tagging a number of images based on what is a clearly false premise: per latest example You've written on those, "No evidence that the image didn't have a copyright; such promotional stills, if they had a copyright notice, tended to have them on the rear of the image."
However, the exact opposite is the case. Promotional images rarely, if ever, have a notice on the reverse. The few instances I recall of seeing reverse-side notices have been for press photos, usually with a simple stamp. And there have been many discussions supporting the common knowledge that even press photos were "rarely copyrighted."
To write that there is therefore "no evidence" of copyright is contrary to the facts. The very front of this image has the name of the studio, the name of the actress, and even some filing code. If a notice was printed, it would have been there. And as film still makes clear with legal support, ""Publicity photos (star headshots) have traditionally not been copyrighted."
Hence, you are using the precautionary principle incorrectly. Without a clear copyright notice, there would be "significant doubt" that a copyright existed, especially for studio publicity photos. If you need links to any previous discussions explaining all of this, let me know. I would also kindly ask that you copy this post to the image's DR page unless you decide to undo the tag. Thanks. --Light show (talk) 01:18, 30 May 2015 (UTC)

Hi there,
I really do not want to be accused of canvassing, but can you please kindly explain to SNUGGUMS that we've agreed to have the duplicate links remain since the list is sortable? The issue was already resolved with Littlecarmen. It has been over ten days since the last comment so I was trying to get feedback.
A tag has been placed on File:Lion waiting in Namibia.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wiki English. This has been done under section F2 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an image page for a missing or corrupt image or an empty image description page for a Commons-hosted image.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wiki's policies and guidelines. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 08:11, 3 June 2015 (UTC)
