My question regarding copyright on Wikimedia Commons

I just got off the phone with the Minnesota House of Representatives regarding the copyright of their online photos (specifically, legislators). I was told that those photos are in the public domain and do not require any copyright. However, I am unsure of how to signify that when uploading. I attempted to do so awhile back (prior to calling the MN House) and my photo was taken down.

You should discuss it at c:COM:VPC Ronhjones  ^(Talk) 20:47, 16 August 2018 (UTC)

Hello!

Hello, feel free to leave any messages here.

Hi, I'm Power~enwiki. PeterMGrund, thanks for creating United States presidential election in Minnesota, 1884!

I've just tagged the page, using our page curation tools, as having some issues to fix. Please include some sourcing for the pages you create.

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, you can leave a comment on my talk page. Or, for more editing help, talk to the volunteers at the Teahouse.

Uploading Fair Use images

Hey there, I noticed you had {{helpme}} on your Commons user page, with a question about uploading a fair use image. I also noticed that you had previously asked users to message you here. Regarding the album cover you want to upload, Commons does not accept fair use images. However, English Wikipedia will host the image for you. Just make sure to use the upload wizard and not the commons wizard (they act in similar ways, but one uploads locally to English Wikipedia, while the other uploads to Commons). If you have any more questions, feel free to ask. --Elisfkc (talk) 17:46, 28 August 2017 (UTC)

SVG Map

I found the original map on United States Senate election in Illinois, 2004, which ran on a pure red/blue scheme, to not give enough information. I replaced it, but did not have the ability to make it an SVG map. Is this something you are able and willing to do? If not, it's OK. I just thought I'd ask. Best, Mpen320 (talk) 20:42, 19 September 2017 (UTC)

More than happy to.

Color schemes of U.S. Election result maps

Hi, since you have made U.S. Election result maps in the past, I thought you might be interested in a discussion of a standardization of the different color schemes being used: Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Elections_and_Referendums#Color_schemes_of_U.S._election_result_maps.

Welcome to Wikipedia from the Anatomy Wikiproject!

Welcome to Wikipedia from WikiProject Anatomy! We're a group of editors who strive to improve the quality of anatomy articles here on Wikipedia. One of our members has noticed that you are involved in editing anatomy articles; it's great to have a new interested editor on board. In your wiki-voyages, here are a few relevant things:

• Thanks for coming aboard! We always appreciate a new editor. Feel free to leave us a message at any time on the WikiProject Anatomy talk page. If you are interested in joining the project yourself, there is a participant list where you can sign up. Please leave a message on the talk page if you have any problems, suggestions, would like review of an article, need suggestions for articles to edit, or would like some collaboration when editing!
• You will make a big difference to the quality of information by adding reliable sources. Sourcing anatomy articles is essential and makes a big difference to the quality of articles. And, while you're at it, why not use a book to source information, which can source multiple articles at once!
• We try and use a standard way of arranging the content in each article. That layout is here. These headings let us have a standard way of presenting the information in anatomical articles, indicate what information may have been forgotten, and save angst when trying to decide how to organise an article. That said, this might not suit every article. If in doubt, be bold!
• We write for a general audience. Every reader should be able to understand anatomical articles, so when possible please write in a simple form—most readers do not understand anatomical jargon. See this essay for more details.

Feel free to contact us on the WikiProject Anatomy talk page if you have any problems, or wish to join us. I wish you all the best on your wiki-voyages! Tom (LT) (talk) 04:47, 22 December 2019 (UTC)

Corrupted ref at Atheism

Can you please {{ping}} me and let me know what you remember about the citation you added in this edit? Notice it contains |last=NW|first=1615 L. St|last2=Washington|first2=Suite 800|. I've seen refs with corrupted params like this before, and am trying to track the problem of refs with corrupted content like this. If you remember whether you typed this, used AWB, or some other tool, and what the circumstances were, it might help. Thanks, Mathglot (talk) 02:52, 6 May 2020 (UTC)

• @Mathglot: That link is from Pew Research's https://www.pewforum.org/2015/04/02/religious-projection-table/. I recall using the auto-citation tool. I could go back and fix it manually if necessary. 18:39, 14 May 2020 (UTC)

Can you corrected the new SVG map for the new version of the Eastern Orthodoxy by Country map?

While I new version of the old map of seeing who follows the [Byzantine] Orthodox Catholic Church. But you also unintentionally keeping the Oriental Orthodox Churches as part of the Eastern Orthodox Churches countries for no reason, as it was from the old Svg map. So can you correcting this to show only the Eastern Orthodox Churches only? Chad The Goatman (talk) 06:17, 13 May 2020 (UTC)

• @Chad The Goatman: Thanks for heads up. Will do in the next week. 18:34, 14 May 2020 (UTC)

Can you correct the freedom of education map?

Hey! Kudos for the map you did on the education by country wiki !

Could you be so kind and correct following:

• Ukraine is green while it should be orange, education there is heavily regulated.
• Italy should be yellow, because children on homeschooling have to pass annual exams.
• Norway should be orange.
• Finland should be yellow.
• Thailand should be orange (heavily regulated) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Menkaur (talk • contribs) 23:32, 2 August 2020 (UTC)

Wikiproject Anatomy newsletter #7

Released September 2020  · Previous newsletter

Hello WikiProject Anatomy participant! This is our seventh newsletter, documenting what's going on in WikiProject Anatomy, news, current projects and other items of interest.

I value feedback, and if you think I've missed something, or don't wish to receive this again, please leave a note on my talk page, or remove your name from the mailing list.

Yours truly, --Tom (LT) (talk) 07:24, 23 September 2020 (UTC)

What's new

Our new barnstar

	new good articles since last newsletter include Epiglottis, Human nose, Pancreas, Prostate, Thymus, Trachea, T tubule, Ureter and Vagina, with Anatomical terms of location also awaiting review
	A made-up eponymous term is used in our article that eventually makes it in to university anatomy teaching slides and a journal article
	We reach a project goal of 150 B-class articles in July 2020, increasing by about 50% over five years, and are one good article away from our goal of 40 GAs, doubling over the last five years
	In the real world, Terminologia Anatomica 2 and Terminologia Embryologica 2 are released ([1], [2]). Terminologia Anatomica 2 is now included in anatomy article infoboxes, and there is ongoing discussion about updating TE as well
	A beautiful new barnstar is released ({{subst:The Anatomist Barnstar}})
	Portal:Anatomy receives some attention, and two related portals are deleted (vale Human body and Cranial nerve portals)
	Some things left out from past newsletters - A large amount of redirects are created to help link plural structures, and Cerebellum ([3]) and Hippocampus ([4]) are published in Wikiversity.

Newsletter topic: anatomy and featured articles

I have been asked to write up something introducing the Featured article (FA) process to anatomy editors, but I took a more general approach to explaining why one might want to contribute featured content and the benefits to the editor and to Wikipedia. I also tried to address some misconceptions about the FA process, and give you a guide that is somewhat specific to health content should you decide to take the dive.

A vital purpose of Featured articles is to serve as examples for new and aspiring Wikipedia editors. FAs are often uniquely comprehensive for the Internet. They showcase some of our best articles, and can enhance Wikipedia's reputation if they are maintained to standard—but in an "anyone can edit" environment, they can easily fall out of standard if not maintained. Benefits to the writer include developing collaborative partnerships and learning new skills, while improving your writing and seeing it exposed to a broader audience—all that Wikipedia is about!

Looking more specifically at WP Anatomy's featured content, the Featured media is impressive and seems to be an Anatomy Project strength. The Anatomy WikiProject has tagged 4 FAs, 1 Featured list, and 30 Featured media. Working towards upgrading and maintaining older Featured articles could be a worthwhile goal. Immune system is a 2007 FA promotion, and bringing it up to date would make a nice collaboration between WikiProject Medicine and the Anatomy WikiProject. Hippocampus is another dated promotion that is almost 50% larger than when promoted, having taken on a bit of uncited text and new text that might benefit from a tune-up.

Whether tuning up an older FA at Featured article review, or attempting a new one to be reviewed at Featured article candidates, taking the plunge can be rewarding, and I hope the advice in my essay is helpful.

You can read the essay "Achieving excellence through featured content" here.

SandyGeorgia has been a regular FA reviewer at FAC and FAR since 2006, and has participated in thousands of nominations

How can I contribute?

• Ask questions! Talk with other editors, collaborate - and if you need help, ask at our project page!
• Continue to add content (and citations) to our articles
• Collaborate and discuss with other editors - many hands make light work!
• Find a space, task or type of article that you enjoy editing - there are lots of untended niches out there
