You are receiving this message because we noticed that you previously voted in the Picture of the Year contest. 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 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.
In this second and final round, you may vote for a maximum of three images. The image with the most votes will become the Picture of the Year 2023.
Hello. I just wanted to let you know that I have grantedautopatrol rights to your account; the reason for this is that I believe you are sufficiently trustworthy and experienced to have your contributions automatically marked as "reviewed". This has no effect on your editing, it is simply intended to make it easier for users that are monitoring Recent changes or Recent uploads to find unproductive edits amidst the productive ones like yours. In addition, the Flickr upload feature and an increased number of batch-uploads in UploadWizard, uploading of freely licensed MP3 files, overwriting files uploaded by others and an increased limit for page renames per minute are now available to you. Thank you. Abzeronow (talk) 00:05, 17 January 2025 (UTC)

Hi, This is such a nice image, and the required fixes are easy, so I made a try. You could nominate this as an alternative in Commons:Featured picture candidates/File:Handcrafted.jpg if Mahinur11 also agrees. Regards, Yann (talk) 20:09, 28 March 2025 (UTC)
@Yann, Thanks for your support. Your version is better, but I think it's less-saturated and doesn't actually give the colorful happy vibe the original gives. What do you say about my edit here?
I'm actually waiting for the original author. I tried to contact him but didn't got any respond yet. I'll wait a bit more then see what I can do. Kaim (talk) 09:40, 29 March 2025 (UTC)
Yes, your version is good. I would support it. Yann (talk) 19:23, 29 March 2025 (UTC)

svg আবেদন
Kaim Amin ভাই, আপনার svg লোগো ও পতাকা সমূহের জন্য অসংখ্য ধন্যবাদ। চাকমা রাজ এর পতাকা svg হিসেবে তৈরিতে আপনি যদি অবদান রাখতেন তাহলে তা খুবই ভালো হতো। চাকমা রাজের পতাকার নিদর্শন এই ফেসবুক পোস্টে ফুটিয়ে তোলা হয়েছে। চাকমা সার্কেলের লোগো যা উইকিপিডিয়াতে আছে তার থেকে এই লোগো এর ভিন্নতা আছে যা এই ফেসবুক পোস্টে সুস্পষ্ট।
আর দ্বিতীয়ত এই পতাকাটি svg করতে পারলে তা ভালো হতো। এই পতাকাটি সাধারণত আর্মি কুচকাআওয়াজে ব্যাবহার করে। এর আশেপাশের হলুদ বর্ডার আমি অন্যান্য ছবি দেখে যা বুঝেছি সেটা decoration এর ঝালড় না, বরং হলুদ বর্ডার যা পতাকার অংশ। প্রত্যেক ছবিতে পতাকা ভাঁজ হয়ে থাকায় আরবি ফন্ট কোনটা ব্যবহৃত হয়েছে তা বুঝা কষ্টসাধ্য। আমি commons এর পতাকার ফন্ট খুঁজে পাইনি বলে svg করা ছেড়ে দিয়েছি আমি ক্ষোভে।
@Tausheef Hassan, দেরির জন্য দুঃখিত। আমি ফাইল গুলো তৈরি করবো, কিন্তু চাকমা কোট অব আর্মস এর কপিরাইট সম্পর্কে তথ্য প্রয়োজন। এর প্রণেতার নাম জানা আছে কিনা? না থাকলে এর প্রকাশের পর ৬০ বছর অতিক্রান্ত হয়েছে তা নিশ্চিত কিনা?
এছাড়া, ফন্টের জন্য কোনো ইউজার জেনারেটেড ফাইল উৎস হিসেবে নেওয়া ঠিক না। আরবি লেখা যুক্ত বাংলাদেশের পতাকাটির পক্ষে কোনো উৎস ওই ফাইলে ও উইকিপিডিয়ার নিবন্ধে যোগ করে দিন। Kaim (talk) 20:09, 11 July 2025 (UTC)
@Kaim Amin, দেরির জন্যে দুঃখিত। আমি আরবি লেখা যুক্ত বাংলাদেশি পতাকার ফাইল এ উৎস যোগ করেছি। আপনি Bangladesh Parade Flag লিখে সার্চ দিলে এর আরও উদাহরণ পেয়ে যাবেন। চাকমা court of arms এর ব্যাপারে সেটা রাঙ্গামাটির চাকমা প্রাসাদের অনুযায়ী সেটা সম্ভবত ব্রিটিশ আমলের তাই ৬০ বছর পার হয়ে গেছে। তবে তার পক্ত প্রমাণ নেই। তবে coat or arms এর জন্যে {{CoA from blazon}} ও {{insignia}} ব্যাবহার করতে পারেন যদি যথার্থ হয় Tausheef Hassan (talk) 12:31, 19 July 2025 (UTC)
বাংলাদেশের পতাকাটির জন্য অবিকল ফন্ট খুঁজে পাওয়া কষ্টকর। ফেসবুকের ওই পতাকার লোগোর কপিরাইট ও নির্ভরযোগ্যতা সম্পর্কে নিশ্চয়তা না থাকায় চাকমা প্রাসাদের লোগো ব্যবহার করা হয়েছে। ভালো কথা, আপনি চাইলে যেকোনো svg অনুরোধ COM:Graphic Lab/Illustration workshop-এ করতে পারেন, সেখানে আরও দ্রুত উত্তর পাবেন। আমি নিজেও সেখানে মাঝে মধ্যে টহল দিই। Kaim (talk) 08:21, 26 July 2025 (UTC)
@Kaim Amin ধন্যবাদ ভাই। আপনি পার্বত্য চট্টগ্রাম এর ব্রিটিশ আমলের বাকি দুই সার্কেল বোমাং ও মং রাজাদের প্রতীক ও পতাকা নিয়ে কাজ করতে পারেন
Hi, Greetings
The winners for Wiki Loves Folklore 2025 are announced!
We are happy to share with you winning images for this year's edition. This year saw over 85715 images from 1912 uploaders represented on Commons in over 142 countries.
Hi Kaim Amin, you're now a filemover. When moving files please respect the following advice:
Use the CommonsDelinker link in the {{Rename}} template to order a bot to replace all occurrences of the old title with the new one. Or, if there was no rename-request, please use the Move&Replace-tab.
Please leave a redirect behind unless you have a valid reason not to do so. Other projects, including those using InstantCommons, might be using the file even though they don't show up in the global usage. Deleting the redirects would break their file references. Please see this section of the file rename guideline for more information.

@Kaim Amin আশা করি ভালো আছেন। যেহেতু আপনি বাংলাদেশের প্রধান বিচারপতির পতাকাটি তৈরি করেছেন, সেহেতু একই রকম হওয়ায় সুপ্রিম কোর্টের বিচারপতিদের পতাকা যা এখানে দৃশ্যমান তা সৃষ্টিতে আপনাকে আমন্ত্রণ জানাচ্ছি। এই দুই পতাকার লোগো ভার্সন আপনি সৃষ্টি করতে পারেন। আপনার উপদেশ মতো বিচার বিভাগের কিছু লোগো আমি Graphic Lab এ প্রস্তাবনা করেছি। আপনি চাইলে দেখে আসতে পারেন। এবং বাংলাদেশ সুপ্রীম কোর্টের সিলমোহরের একটি english version রয়েছে যা commons এ নেই যা এখানে দৃশ্যমান। আপনি চাইলে তা সৃষ্টিতে অবদান রাখতে পারেন। সর্বাপরি আপনাকে এই আলোচনায় File talk:Ceremonial Flag of Bangladesh.svg#Outline vs fringe আমি আমন্ত্রণ জানাচ্ছি -- Tausheef Hassan (talk) 07:08, 1 September 2025 (UTC)

Hi, do you often update the national team shirt and some other clubs? Nguonnhanluc853 (talk) 09:00, 3 December 2025 (UTC)

@Kaim Amin Why can’t I see it added to the Vietnam national football team page yet? And also the Jogarbola manufacturer’s logo on the right chest. Could you help me add those to the kit body section on the Vietnam national football team Wikipedia page? ~2025-43578-66 (talk) 17:10, 29 December 2025 (UTC)

Goalkeeper Vietnam national football team kits
Hello, could you update the full logo Vietnam goalkeeper uniform set for 2025?
The world’s traditions are disappearing faster than we can document them, but you can help change that.
On behalf of the Wiki Loves Folklore International Team, we are reaching out to invite you to contribute to the 2026 edition of our global campaign.
Share Your Cultural Heritage with the World
Wiki Loves Folklore is an international media contest dedicated to documenting the "intangible" beauty of our cultures.

How You Can Contribute
Participating is simple, and every upload contributes to the world's largest free knowledge repository:
Capture: Take photos, record videos, or capture audio of folk activities, music, mythology, or traditional wear.
Upload: Share your files on Wikimedia Commons between 1 February 2026 and 31 March 2026.
Win: Beyond the satisfaction of preservation, there are international prizes for the most impactful contributions.
Hello Kaim Amin,
Could u please clarify the reason for reverting my edit?
This flag is fictional and is not used by any official or public organizations and there is no national movement that uses this one.
I would appreciate your clarification. Thanks. ZHUWANDI (talk) 21:43, 3 March 2026 (UTC)
@ZHUWANDI, Even if it is fictional, it's supposed to portray Tabasaran National Movement, and removing categories doesn;t make any difference. Now that you've mentioned it is fictional, I've added this template. Thanks -- Kaim (talk) 15:29, 4 March 2026 (UTC)

SSR/CCP variants of Soviet/Russian republics flags
I noticed a number of flags you uploaded (and added to the Country Data templates by @Boston Mayflower) that seem to be supposed flags of Soviet/Russian ASSRs after their promotions to SSRs in 1990-91 before the adoption of their modern flags. Do we have actual source of these designs in the form of either textual descriptions in the constitutions of these republics or photographs from the era? Based on photos from the signing of w:Treaty of Federation, the flags in fact still had "ACCP" (ASSR) on them at the end of March 1992: SaarPro (talk) 05:42, 19 April 2026 (UTC)
@SaarPro The Dagestan flag from 1991 to 1994, the Mordovia flag from 1990 to 1995, and the Sakha flag from 1990 to 1992 can be referenced. Boston Mayflower (talk) 07:11, 19 April 2026 (UTC)
Would you like to add the references to the descriptions on the pages of those images? Not sure if the crwflags.com ones are good sources on their own, but some of them mention supposed footage showing those flags at the parliament.
As a note, the flag with the visible "ACCP" text from the Mar 1992 photos seems to be of Buryatia. SaarPro (talk) 09:10, 19 April 2026 (UTC)

Civil Ensign of Jamaica has the wrong colors
Kaim Amin remember changing the flag of Jamaica well the civil ensign of Jamaica is still using the wrong colors can you change it. Ryderpedia (talk) 09:00, 11 June 2026 (UTC)
The flag of British Heligoland red should be change to the red that appeared from 9 August 2014 to 16 September 2019 and everything else keep the same. Ryderpedia (talk) 13:42, 13 June 2026 (UTC)
@Ryderpedia, why the 2014 version, as the 2021 one seems more reasonable. Just for fyi, adding wikilinks to messages makes it a lot more convenient for other people. Kaim (talk) 16:23, 13 June 2026 (UTC)
just the red color ok. Ryderpedia (talk) 16:28, 13 June 2026 (UTC)
Just download the image and change the red to match the union Jack color ok. Ryderpedia (talk) 16:30, 13 June 2026 (UTC)
I mean Union Jack red. Ryderpedia (talk) 16:32, 13 June 2026 (UTC)
@Ryderpedia, What I mean is, the union jack and the Heligoland red doesn't necessarily need to match. Apparently, the Heligoland flag is supposed to be more orangish than the union jack red. Kaim (talk) 06:31, 14 June 2026 (UTC)
