review
Support: best in scope. (The scope must be related to a category. So I've changed it. I hope it's OK now.)--JLPC (talk) 08:57, 17 March 2013 (UTC)
Hi Gampe, I have seen a new User:Radka.Novakova.9, with photos near Brno, but I think she need a little help, I don't now, if there speak more than cestina;-) it's only information, and have a nice day, regards from the neighbourhood --K@rl (talk) 12:05, 23 June 2015 (UTC)
Okay, this one I don't see it;-) --regards K@rl (talk) 13:17, 23 June 2015 (UTC)
Descriptions
Hi Gampe, now a new request: the photos from User:Martina Pařízková haven't a description. There are not many, but for the few, which I know, I added ingerman, parhaps you can add there in česky too. regards and děkuji --K@rl (talk) 14:37, 13 July 2015 (UTC)
Hi K@rl, all contributions of Martina Pařízková are from WLM 2013. Since then she had no editing. --Gampe (talk) 18:10, 13 July 2015 (UTC)
I know,but the photos havent a decription till now:-) - this was the request, that you can add this description - there are not so many photos.-regards K@rl (talk) 21:09, 13 July 2015 (UTC)

File:Josef Ullmann - Oráč (po r.1910).jpg
Prosím o kontrolu tohoto souboru: File:Josef Ullmann - Oráč (po r.1910).jpg po jeho načtení se tam ukazuje toto: Error in template * unknown parameter name (Template:Information): '1; 2'
patrně jsem něco udělal špatně, ale nemohu příjít na co jsem udělal špatně. Nerozumím tomu. Děkuji--Martin wolf (talk) 22:19, 26 July 2015 (UTC)
Problém byl v té složité internetové adrese, která obsahovala znaky, se kterými si šablona nevěděla rady. Zjednodušil jsem ji. Druhá věc, kterou jsem tam našel, byla kategorie, kde se míchali dva Josefové Ullmanové. Rozsadil jsem je a udělal rozcestník. Zdraví --Gampe (talk) 04:08, 27 July 2015 (UTC)
Děkuji za pomoc. S tím jsem si nevěděl rady. Toho malíře Josefa Ullmanna jsem založil na Wikipedii, ale adresa Josef Ullmann již byla obsazená, tak jsem musel založit Josef Ullmann (malíř). Na commons však někdo načetl jeho obrazy pod Josef Ullmann a tak jsem tam s tím kouzlil, abych to nějak sloučil. Ještě se v tom tolik nevyznám. Něco podobného se stalo u stránky Josef Král (malíř). Stránku jsem založil pod touto již připravenou adresou (na Wikipedii svítila červeně), ale na comons někdo načet jeho obrazy pod adresou Josef Jaroslav Král. Dal jsem to (ani nevím jak) do podkategorie. Josef Král (malíř) a Josef Jaroslav Král jsou jedna osoba. Díky za pomoc a zdravím--Martin wolf (talk) 07:37, 27 July 2015 (UTC)
Thanks for uploading File:Ernestine Roessler.jpg. I notice that the file page either doesn't contain enough information about the license or it contains contradictory information about the license, so the copyright status is unclear.
If you did not create the file yourself or if it is a derivative of another work that is possibly subject to copyright protection, then you must specify where you found it (e.g. usually a link to the web page where you got it), you must provide proof that it has a license that is acceptable for Commons (e.g. usually a link to the terms of use for content from that page), and you must add an appropriate license tag. If you did not create the file yourself and the specific source and license information is not available on the web, you must obtain permission through the VRT system and follow the procedure described there.
Note that any unsourced or improperly licensed files will be deleted one week after they have been marked as lacking proper information, as described in criteria for deletion. If you have uploaded other files, please confirm that you have provided the proper information for those files, too. If you have any questions about licenses please ask at Commons:Village pump/Copyright or see our help pages. Thank you.
No required license templates were detected at this file page. Please correct it, or if you have any questions please check my FAQ or contact me on my talk page. Yours sincerely, Jarekt (talk) 02:15, 3 August 2015 (UTC)
Ahoj Gampe, I need your help, because it looiks like, that an slovak user the User:Ľuboš Repta don't understand the sceme of the categories of monuments in slovakie. Each community need an own category:Cultural monuments in xy, because they are used in slovak and german articles and wikidata to upload files. But I think he understand wheter teh english explanation nor the sense of the system. This system is approx. teh austrian and works thince few years. Perhaps its possible, that you can explain him this. It's not necessarey, that he makes new categories, vbut he shgould not disturb the existing system. thank a lot --regards K@rl (talk) 16:24, 3 August 2015 (UTC)

Změnil se nějak spůsob při vytváření kategorií nově nahraných obrázků? Chová se to jinak než jsem byl zvyklí. Postupuji tak jak jste mě napsal, ale hlásí to pořád, že je kategorie prázná i když jsem nahrál obrázek.

Slezská němčina - Audio
Cześć Gampe!
Pare miesięcy temu nagrałeś wymowę nazw miejscowości w dialekcie górnołużyckim (Oberlausitzer Mundart) np. Äberuderwitzⓘ.
Czy możesz zrobić coś takiego dla dialektu śląskiego (Slezská němčina) np.:
Slezská němčina (Schläsch)
Čeština
Brassel
Vratislav (město), (polsky: Wrocław)
Walmbrich
Valbřich (polsky: Wałbrzych)
Herschbrich
Jelení Hora (polsky: Jelenia Góra)
Lamrich
(polsky: Lwówek Śląski, německy: Löwenberg in Schlesien)
Potschke
Pačkov (polsky: Paczków , německy: Patschkau)
Strahla
Střelín (polsky: Strzelin)
Striege
Střihom (polsky: Strzegom)
Gruttke
(pol. Grodków, něm. Grottkau)
Glootz
Kladsko
Schweinz
Svídnice (Polsko)
Uppeln
Opolí
Aeberbeuthn
(polsky: Bytom , německy: Beuthen in Oberschlesien)
Rattebor
Ratiboř (Slezské vojvodství)
Bunzel
Boleslav (polsky: Bolesławiec)
Zota
(polsky: Sobótka)
Schläsche Sproache
Slezská němčina
Schläsing
Slezsko
Aeberschläsing
Horní Slezsko
Niederschläsing
Dolní Slezsko
Schläsinger
Slezané
Można to zapisać np. jako Sli-Brassel.ogg, Sli-Schläsing.ogg itd.
Będę serdecznie wdzięczny za pomoc. —Preceding unsigned comment was added by 89.70.56.196 (talk) 12:18, 02 December 2015 (UTC)
Cześć, there is no problem, but one: we need to find a native speaker of Silesian German. Do you know someone like that? I will try to ask my Silesian friends. --Gampe (talk) 12:56, 2 December 2015 (UTC)
Dzięki za odpowiedz ogólne zasady wymowy tego dialektu śląskiego są takie same jak w języku niemiecku np. sch to polskie sz, tz to polskie c itd. Są też ciekawostki jak Ae czyta się to, jak polskie e (i zawsze Ae występuje na początku wyrazu np.: Aeberschläsing, Aeberbeuthn). Przykładowo: Bunzel czyta się po polsku jak Buncel, Brassel to po polsku wymawia się jak Brasel, zaś Schläsing czyta się jak po polsku Szlezing
Nie umię zrobić to w ten sposób. Moje rekordy zostały wykonane w ten sposób: miejscowy ekspert powiedział: ten człowiek mówi naprawdę autentyczne miejscowego dialektu. Potem poprosiliśmy, że człowiek, aby zapoznać się z nazwy i nagrałem go. Nie umię pracować z tych narzędzi Google. --Gampe (talk) 04:15, 3 December 2015 (UTC)
Google tłumacz to był tylko taki przykład (nie sugeruj się tym). Jeśli naprawdę znalazłeś jakiegoś człowieka, który posługuję się tym dialektem i go nagrasz to cudownie. Podsumowując nagraj wymowę tych nazw miejscowości tak jak zrobiłeś to w dialekcie górnołużyckim (Oberlausitzer Mundart) np. Äberuderwitzⓘ. PS. Serdecznie dziękujem, że się tym zainteresowałeś. —Preceding unsigned comment was added by 89.70.56.196 (talk) 08:31, 03 December 2015 (UTC)

Hi Gampe! I've been away for a while from Wikimedia projects, including OTRS. Since I came back, one of the first things I noticed was your activity in different fields and projects. Please, let me award you with this barnstar for "particularly fine contributions to Commons". I consider you to be one of the most valuable contributors. You work offline a lot, you connect people and promote Wikimedia projects like Commons out there. That's something what is so needed! I believe we need to support more people like you. Thank you so much for your long lasting work, it's admirable. All the best, Podzemnik (talk) 23:22, 25 May 2018 (UTC)

Hups, nevšiml jsem si téhle diskuse. Já to zrovna všechno smazal. Hakjosef uploaduje ty soubory páté přes deváte od různých autorů, podle mě je jen mizivá šance, že by to svolení měl. Vypadá to na fotky někdy z galerie. Napíšu mu. Pěkný den oběma, --Podzemnik (talk) 15:18, 24 June 2018 (UTC)
You are receiving this message because we noticed that you voted in R1 of the 2018 Picture of the Year contest, but not yet in the second round. Wikimedia users are invited to vote for their favorite images featured on Commons during the last year (2018) to produce a single Picture of the Year.
Hundreds of images that have been rated Featured Pictures by the international Wikimedia Commons community in the past year were entered in this competition. These images include professional animal and plant shots, breathtaking panoramas and skylines, restorations of historical images, photographs portraying the world's best architecture, impressive human portraits, and so much more.
There are two total rounds of voting. In the first round, you voted for as many images as you liked.
In the final (and current) round, you may vote for a maximum of three images. The image with the most votes will become the Picture of the Year 2018.
Thanks, the Wikimedia Commons Picture of the Year committee 18:04, 16 March 2019 (UTC)
Google Code-In 2019 is coming - please mentor some documentation tasks!
Hello,
Google Code-In, Google-organized contest in which the Wikimedia Foundation participates, starts in a few weeks. This contest is about taking high school students into the world of opensource. I'm sending you this message because you recently edited a documentation page at Wikimedia Commons.
I would like to ask you to take part in Google Code-In as a mentor. That would mean to prepare at least one task (it can be documentation related, or something else - the other categories are Code, Design, Quality Assurance and Outreach) for the participants, and help the student to complete it. Please sign up at the contest page and send us your Google account address to google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org, so we can invite you in!
From my own experience, Google Code-In can be fun, you can make several new friends, attract new people to your wiki and make them part of your community.
If you have any questions, please let us know at google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org.

Osobní fotografie
Zdravím. Pro smazání osobních fotografií anonymních nebo nevýznamných osob není třeba zakládat diskusi o smazání, ale je vhodnější navrhnout rychlé smazání šablonou {{SD}} s parametrem F10, případně přímou šablonou {{SDF10}}.

Ahoj Gampe, náhodou při hledání správného zařazení obrázku jsem narazila na Category:Balloons in the Czech Republic, v níž všechny obrázky patří do Category:Toy balloons in the Czech Republic, resp. ještě lépe by bylo přejmenovat tuto kategorii třeba na Balónková šou nebo anglický ekvivalent a nechat to pohromadě.

File:Jan z Lány (1793-1878).jpg
Dobrý den, při nahrávání souborů na Wikimedia Commons, v tomto případě File:Jan z Lány (1793-1878).jpg, jsem bohužel nikde nenašel, pravděpodobně tedy přehlédl kolonku, kdy jsme já sám či rodina držiteli práv k něčemu, kdy již sami nevíme, kdo je původním autorem malby či fotografie, je to ve vlastnictví rodiny a originály jsou v těchto případech uloženy v rodinném archivu doma a částečně některé svěřeny do "Rodinného fondu Lány" archivu Národního muzea v Praze a zároveň doba ochrany autorských práv již vypršela. Tudíž jsem se řídil radou "Průvodce načítáním souborů" - tedy, že mohu "načíst vlastní fotografie starších uměleckých děl...". Nicméně zároveň jsme stále vlastníky originálů a veškeré kopie, které jsou na internetu k dispozici, jsou jen kopie z těchto originálů, nebo kopie z knih, ke kterým dala rodina v minulosti souhlas. Dnes již k uplynulé lhůtě není souhlas stejně potřeba, je to tzv. volné dílo. Při uvedení, že se jedná o vlastní dílo, jsem tím tedy myslel vlastní kopii něčeho, k čemu mám já sám práva, nebo již práva pominula a jsou volně šiřitelná, avšak vlastním originál. Při dalším vkládání obrázků se tedy pečlivěji podívám, kam se tato situace má uvést a děkuji za upozornění. Jacobus~cswiki (talk) 08:38, 16 February 2023 (UTC)
Karel Váňa
Ahoj, jako tip – do Category:Photographs by Karel Váňa by se dalo nahrát hafo fotek z jeho stránky v Archivu Národního divadla, jak je tam správně uvedeno, „zachytil celou svou generaci herců ND“. Nevím, jestli z GLAMu někdo s archivem komunikuje, aby bylo možno dostat fotografie ve větším rozměru a nemuselo se to brát tak poloilegálně (byť zřejmě oprávněně, když je vše PD-Old). Tak píšu a ještě dávám na vědomí @Eva Vele (WMCZ) and David Sedlecký: –Gumruch (talk) 11:21, 26 June 2023 (UTC)
Ahoj, jsem v kontaktu s AND, požádám o oficiální uvolnění vybraných fotek v kategorii PD-Old z archivu Karla Váni, které jsou v AND, ale až po divadelních prázdninách, teď už to nestihneme. Díky za námět, zdraví--David Sedlecký (talk) 08:31, 27 June 2023 (UTC)
Ahoj, vracím se k záležitosti fotografií Karla Váni z prostředí Národního divadla. Po projednání záležitosti s Divadelním archivem Národního divadla sděluji: „Pan Karel Váňa pořizoval fotografie jako dlouholetý člen souboru ND a jeho fotografie tvoří podstatnou a cennou část sbírek Divadelního archivu ND. Originály a zdroje jsou majetkem ND a jako takové jsou pro publikační účely zpoplatněné. Se zájemci o publikování fotek archiv vždy individuálně projedná podmínky poskytnutí příslušné fotografie ve vyšší kvalitě. Pro veřejnost jsou fotografie běžně k nahlédnutí na webu archivu, na který je i odkaz na Wiki stránce pana K. Váni. Významný fond fotografií K. Váni je uložen i v Divadelním oddělení Národního muzea, které k jejich použití přistupuje obdobně, patrně další fotografie budou i v jiných paměťových institucích.“ Zdraví--David Sedlecký (talk) 11:30, 18 September 2023 (UTC)
@David SedleckýAhoj, děkuji za pozornost, se kterou se tomuto tématu věnuješ. Karel Váňa zemřel v roce 1951, takže jeho díla jsou z pohledu Wikimedia Commons volná. Samozřejmě má Archiv ND právo na nich "sedět", ale pokud je někdo najde někde jinde, mají smůlu. Opakuji: nejlepší řešení je domluvit se. Napadají mě další paralely z českého prostředí, až se vrátím z dovolené, ozvu se. Gampe (talk) 11:58, 18 September 2023 (UTC)
Metadata = Uganda and similar rock art on the British Museum website.
You also wrote, "This is an experiment (hoax), there is no source on this topic." This appears to not be a "hoax" and not an "experiment." The "source" is given as "own work" by this User and it is their only file uploaded, so I am "assuming good faith."
The file name could be renamed to be more accurate, however this file is educational, useful and not "Out of Scope" per COM:OOS -- Ooligan (talk) 08:10, 6 August 2023 (UTC)
@Ooligan Thanks for the explanation. But "Skrytotěl Vágnerův" is nonsense, an experiment, a joke. Nothing like that exists in Czech language. The uploader is a joker who has never done any meaningful editing or provided any source. I can edit coordinates in EXIF in a few seconds, that's not an argument. If you can describe what is actually shown on the photo and if you can give it a meaningful name, then please do it. But I'm a little afraid that it won't end up like hereGampe (talk) 08:45, 6 August 2023 (UTC)

Re: User talk:Novohospodska
No hard evidence is required for previously unpublished images which are high-res with EXIF. Anyone can choose whatever username they want and claim whoever they want as the named author, and we would be none the wiser. (For example, they could take a photo that is actually someone else's work and put their own username as the author, and it is simply impossible for us to differentiate this case from when the uploader is telling the truth.) An unwritten corollary of COM:AGF and COM:PCP is this: If we are not sure if a user is telling the truth, but we have exhausted all means by which the legitimate author can prove their authorship in a way that is difficult to fake, then assume they are telling the truth.
What do you think asking for COM:VRT accomplished here? At VRT we are perfectly willing to accept a permission statement from a random unverified email address because again, the images are previously unpublished and high-res with EXIF. If someone really was trying to fool us, it is just as easy to create an email address as a Commons account. All you're doing here is potentially causing images uploaded in good faith to be deleted (e.g. if the uploader doesn't check their account within a week of the tagging). -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 20:29, 24 December 2023 (UTC)
1. Novohospodska: the misunderstanding has been cleared up, we are coworking with the author.
2. General: I follow the Commons:Media needing categories (Czech description) page and every week I find photos uploaded there without the consent of the real author. They are usually beginners who have not understood the principle of free licenses. Some out of ignorance, some on purpose. I notify them not only on the discussion user page, but also by email if possible. I think it is not good to tolerate this. I understand that it is possible to create a fake consent to publish, but then the burden of proof is on the author of the consent side, not the Commons users.

Měl bych dotaz k téhle editaci . Uvádíte popisek obrázku "Podobizna sourozenců Siblingových", s tím, že název souboru je "Dvorak_The_Siblings.jpg". Víte opravdu, že to byli sourozenci "Siblingovi"? Původnímu anglickému názvu "The Siblings", by spíš odpovídal obecný název obrazu "Sourozenci". Jik jik (talk) 15:44, 17 April 2024 (UTC)

Round 1 of Picture of the Year 2023 voting is open!
2022 Picture of the Year: Great Cormorant (Phalacrocorax carbo), Little Egret (Egretta garzetta) and Gadwall (Mareca strepera) in Nepal.
Dear Wikimedian,
Wikimedia Commons is happy to announce that the 2023 Picture of the Year competition is now open. This year will be the eighteenth edition of the annual Wikimedia Commons photo competition, which recognizes exceptional contributions by users on Wikimedia Commons. Wikimedia users are invited to vote for their favorite images featured on Commons during the last year (2023) to produce a single Picture of the Year.
Hundreds of images that have been rated Featured Pictures by the international Wikimedia Commons community in the past year are all entered in this competition. These images include professional animal and plant shots, breathtaking panoramas and skylines, restorations of historical images, photographs portraying the world's best architecture, impressive human portraits, and so much more.
For your convenience, we have sorted the images into topical categories. Two rounds of voting will be held: In the first round, you may vote for as many images as you like. The top 30 overall and top 5% of most popular images in each category will continue to the final. In the final round, you may vote for just three images to become the Picture of the Year.

@Marek Genius Rozlišujme dvě věci: svolení autora, zaslané na adresu VRT a printscreen svolení, nahraný na Commons. První varianta je správně, druhá je špatně. Gampe (talk) 19:08, 23 January 2025 (UTC)
Nevím, mně se to zdá trochu jako byrokracie, zfaktického hlediska je podle mě jedno, kam to uživatel nahraje, naopak nahrání na Commons má výhodu vtom, že jej může ověřit kterýkoliv uživatel, tedy inečlen VRT. Nebo má e-mail nějaké výhody? Že je známa e-mailová adresa? Připojení zaručeného elektronického podpisu? Ale většina lidí to asi posílá bez zaručeného elektronického podpisu… Nicméně to je vlastně jedno, protože uživatelce jsem psal, aby potvrzení zaslala e-mailem, adne 18.11. 2024 odpověděla, že potvrzení e-mailem zašle. Ovšem uobrázků nejsou připojena. Proto se tedy ptám, zda na e-mail týmu VRT dorazila? --Marek Genius (talk) 19:45, 23 January 2025 (UTC)
@Marek Genius Jedno to není, souhlasy z mnoha důvodů nejsou veřejné. Prosím řiďte se nápovědou zde. Zítra se pokusím svolení zpětně dohledat a dám vám vědět. Gampe (talk) 19:53, 23 January 2025 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading File:Křížová cesta Vyskeř, zastavení IV (5111).jpg. I notice that the file page either doesn't contain enough information about the license or it contains contradictory information about the license, so the copyright status is unclear.
If you did not create the file yourself or if it is a derivative of another work that is possibly subject to copyright protection, then you must specify where you found it (e.g. usually a link to the web page where you got it), you must provide proof that it has a license that is acceptable for Commons (e.g. usually a link to the terms of use for content from that page), and you must add an appropriate license tag. If you did not create the file yourself and the specific source and license information is not available on the web, you must obtain permission through the VRT system and follow the procedure described there.
Note that any unsourced or improperly licensed files will be deleted one week after they have been marked as lacking proper information, as described in criteria for deletion. If you have uploaded other files, please confirm that you have provided the proper information for those files, too. If you have any questions about licenses please ask at Commons:Village pump/Copyright or see our help pages. Thank you.

A file that you have uploaded to Wikimedia Commons, File:Stipa-Caproni piani.jpg, was missing information about where it comes from or who created it, which is needed to verify its copyright status. The file probably has been deleted. If you've got all required information, request undeletion providing this information and the link to the concerned file ([[:File:Stipa-Caproni piani.jpg]]).
If you created the content yourself, enter {{Own}} as the source. If you did not add a licensing template, you must add one. You may use, for example, {{self|GFDL|cc-by-sa-all}} or {{Cc-zero}} to release certain rights to your work.
If someone else created the content, or if it is based on someone else's work, the source should be the address to the web page where you found it, the name and ISBN of the book you scanned it from, or similar. You should also name the author, provide verifiable information to show that the content is in the public domain or has been published under a free license by its author, and add an appropriate template identifying the public domain or licensing status, if you have not already done so. Warning: Wikimedia Commons takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.
Please add the required information for this and other files you have uploaded before adding more files. If you need assistance, please ask at the help desk. Thank you!
@ZioNicco Dear ZioNicco, I see a clear free license there. But if you don't like it, feel free to delete the file. I won't be sorry, but it will be a shame for the Wikipedia project. Sincerely Gampe (talk) 17:01, 20 June 2025 (UTC)
here the problem is the inconsistency between license and author, if the author is really the one indicated, pd-italia is not suitable, if instead it is a scan of some book a source would be needed ZioNicco (talk) 06:54, 21 June 2025 (UTC)

@Josve05a I am not the uploader of this work, I only have corrected the collinearity of the digital file. From the perspective of European copyright law, this is a free work because more than 70 years have passed since the author's death. Gampe (talk) 14:02, 7 February 2026 (UTC)
You uploaded a new "version" of the file, hence why you also got an automatic notification that the file was nominated for deletion. Yes indeed, it is free in the source country - but Commons also requires it to be free of US copyright as well. I've withdrawn my nomination since I was mistaken on one fact about copyright durations which would have caused it to not be copyrighted in the US anymore, and I have corrected the file description page to reflect that. --Jonatan Svensson Glad (talk) 19:58, 7 February 2026 (UTC)
Zdroje odvozeného díla
Ahoj Gampe, ty se v těch licencích a uvádění zdrojů orientuješ líp než já, máš s tím víc zkušeností. Pomohl bys mi prosím se správným uvedením u tohohle souboru: File:Varvažov, hrob majora Rödera v mapách.jpg?
Ty podkladové mapy jsem vyextrahoval z aplikace . První je zaručeně volná, je to klasický Stabilní katastr. Jakožto státní/úřední díla by myslím měly být volné i ty další dvě, protože to je Státní mapa odvozená 1:5000 z roku 1950 a letecké fotografické mapování z let 1953-54. Ale jestli se mýlím a není to volné, oprav mě.
Ta druhá řada už může být složitější, trochu paradoxně právě na tom webu tyto mapy nejsou opatřené vodoznakem, zatímco ty staré, co už by volné být měly, mají vodoznak. Takže jsem myslel, že to půjde použít, obzvlášť když z toho používám vždycky jenom malý kousek jako součást koláže. Ale možná že ne, nevím. Mapy.com dovolují screenshoty ze svých map používat, takže bych možná mohl použít jejich leteckou mapu, jenom to má ten nedostatek, že se mi hůř trefí stejné měřítko a rozměr, když to bude odjinud. A taky mají jenom mapu k roku 2022, ne ty starší, na kterých je hezky vidět situace před výstavbou a v průběhu výstavby dálnice.
Každopádně, jak myslíš, že bych měl správně ty zdroje uvést? Já mám zatím zkušenost spíš jen s případy, kdy dělám odvozené dílo z nějakého souboru, který už je sám o sobě nahraný na Commons, s pomocí Template:Derived from. Budu ti vděčný za radu i pomoc. Bazi (talk) 16:32, 12 March 2026 (UTC)
@Bazi Ahoj, první řada je zcela jistě bez problémů. Stabilní katastr je {{PD-anon-70-EU}}, zbylé dva {{PD-CzechGov}}. se zbylými jsem na pochybách. S tím nemám žádné zkušenosti. Gampe (talk) 20:19, 12 March 2026 (UTC)
Díky moc za radu a názor. Ty mladší jsem nahradil z Map.com, i když to byla docela piplačka a nesedí to dokonale, ale nezkušené oko tu drobnou odchylku asi ani nepozná. A zkusil jsem to tam všechno nějak vepsat, snad uspokojivě: File:Varvažov, hrob majora Rödera v mapách.jpg. Bazi (talk) 00:24, 13 March 2026 (UTC)
Ahoj Gampe, poprosím o další licenční konzultaci. U tohoto obrázku uvádějí licenci CC BY-NC-SA čili jen pro nekomerční využití, což nám asi brání v použití na Commons. Na druhou stranu ale to dílo zachycuje výjev z události roku 1835 a bylo vytvořeno poměrně zjevně už někdy v té době, takže by už vůbec nemělo být autorskoprávně chráněno. Mimo jiné z něj vznikaly i kolorované variace. Chápu, že ta digitalizace může být novodobá, ale nemělo by to být stejně autorskoprávně volné? Podobný obrázek jinde zachycující stejnou událost a pocházející nejspíš ze stejné doby si žádné podobné licenční nároky neklade. --Bazi (talk) 07:19, 25 March 2026 (UTC)
@Bazi Ahoj, no, opět ti poradím - neporadím. Z pohledu Wikimedia Commons je to dílo jednoznačně volné (1835). eBay ale tvrdí, že veškerý obsah má copyrightován, na té druhé stránce je CC-..-NC-.. Bohužel nejen české instituce uplatňují právo prvního zveřejnitele nebo právo na databázi (já jsem se dohadoval dokonce s Getty Images a zachránil mě jeden maďarský wikipedista, viz zde). Takže buď edituj (a nahrávej) s odvahou, nebo se pokus najít zdrojovou stránku, kde to bude bez problémů. Hodně zdaru! Gampe (talk) 14:43, 25 March 2026 (UTC)

Announcing the Winners of Picture of the Year 2025!
Hi everyone,
Wikimedia Commons is pleased to finally announce the winners of this year's Picture of the Year 2025 contest! We had some truly incredible finalists to choose from, but the community has spoken.
Here are your top three winning images:
First place: The aftermath of an Israeli airstrike in Gaza City on October 9, 2023, leaving widespread destruction in the Rimal area. Attribution: WAFA (Q2915969) / CC-BY-SA 3.0
Second place: Baby cape fur seal (Arctocephalus pusillus) sleeping at Cape cross, Namibia. Attribution: Giles Laurent / CC-BY-SA 4.0
Third place: A gigantic jet photographed from the International Space Station by astronaut Nichole Ayers. Attribution: public domain
You can view the full results and see where all your favorite images placed here: Full 2025 Results
I also want to highlight what an incredible turnout we had. In the second round, we saw a massive jump in both the number of users voting and the total votes cast. We had exactly 13,979 votes cast by 3,509 users! To put that in perspective, last year we had 7,403 votes from 2,837 users. It is amazing to see that level of growth and community engagement.
Thank you to everyone who voted, helped organize, and generally made the contest such a huge success this year!
