თხოვნა

გია, გამარჯობა, როგორ ხარ? ვერ მოგწერე დროზე-ადრე. ბოდიში უხერხულობისთვის. ფაილები წაუშლიათ და როგორ მოვიქცე? ხელახლა ავტვირთო სხვა ლიცენზიის მითითებით თუ როგორ მოვიქცე ?. - Otogi (talk) 17:30, 19 March 2025 (UTC)

@Otogi, რომელი ფაილები? საიდან არიან? -- Geagea (talk) 18:02, 19 March 2025 (UTC)
აი, ადრე რო წამიშალეს სურათები. ჩემს განხილვაში ნახე. User talk:Otogi. --Otogi (talk) 18:09, 19 March 2025 (UTC)
ყოველ სურათი გასასინჯია იმის კოპირიტის სტსტუსი. როდის გადაიღეს, ვინ გადაიღო, სად არი გადაღებული. როდის გამოქვეყნდა პირველად. არ ვარ დარწმუნებული, რომ ფაილები საერთოდ არის საყოველთაო საკუთრება. -- Geagea (talk) 18:26, 19 March 2025 (UTC)

Dear valued user Geagea, can you add this IAF image of an F-35I Adir in "Beast Mode" to Wikimedia Commons: https://www.israeldefense.co.il/node/65011 or did I just not find it?

Update request

Hello, Geagea.

Can you update File:Holocaust Denial Laws.svg?

Holocaust denial has been illegal and a criminal offence in Uhraine since 22 September 2021, in Canada since 23 June 2022, in Sweden since 22 May 2024. See Ukraine, Canada and Sweden in the Wikipedia article Legality of Holocaust denial and the sources:

Yours sincerely, Oratas (talk) 07:55, 3 June 2025 (UTC)

@Oratas, sorry I'm not familiar with his topic. I can't help. -- Geagea (talk) 07:59, 3 June 2025 (UTC)
Hello, Geagea.
In case you want to know, File:Holocaust Denial Laws.svg has been finally updated.
Yours sincerely, Oratas (talk) 13:38, 12 June 2025 (UTC)

Update request 2

Hello, Geagea.

In File:Slavic europe (Kosovo unshaded).svg, can you get rid of the "borders" of the breakaway Nagorno-Karabakh inside Azerbaijan which ceased to exist in 2023, the "borders" of the breakaway entities inside Georgia and Moldova, and the pre-2022 Russian invasion controlled territory inside Ukraine?

Yours sincerely, Oratas (talk) 07:55, 3 June 2025 (UTC)

@Oratas, sorry I'm not familiar with his topic. I can't help. -- Geagea (talk) 07:59, 3 June 2025 (UTC)
I understand. Thank you for the reply. Do you know anyone who would be willing to update the maps, especially the Holocaust map (because many Wikipedia articles use the fixed-date and outdated Holocaust maps)? Oratas (talk) 08:09, 3 June 2025 (UTC)
Well, try to ask at Hebrew Wikipedia Graphic Lab. In English is ok also. -- Geagea (talk) 08:19, 3 June 2025 (UTC)
Thank you very much for the advice. I will do so. Oratas (talk) 08:33, 3 June 2025 (UTC)
Hello, Geagea.
File:Slavic europe (Kosovo unshaded).svg has been updated.
I did send a request to Hebrew Wikipedia Graphic Lab, unfortunately they have not been receptive. I still continue to ask knowledgeable users to update the Holocaust denial law map in Wikimedia Commons.
One question: Can you edit PNG/GIF maps? The border of South Sudan needs to be added in the two widely used maps File:Hebrew speakers around the world.PNG and File:Yahudi Dilleri.gif. I think about posting this in Hebrew Wikipedia Graphic Lab, but after my first futile attempt, I don't hold my breath.
Yours sincerely, Oratas (talk) 08:44, 10 June 2025 (UTC)
@Oratas, sorry I'm not familiar with that. If it's technical issue I think Commons:Graphic Lab can help. -- Geagea (talk) 08:48, 10 June 2025 (UTC)
Thank you. I completely forgot about that. They have been more receptive to requests there, even though requests can languish for months. I will try my luck there. Oratas (talk) 08:53, 10 June 2025 (UTC)

Round 1 of Picture of the Year 2024 voting is open!

2023 Picture of the Year: Incense plays an important role in Vietnamese life. It is considered as a sacred bridge to connect the visible life of human beings and the world of heaven, earth, and gods. Photo taken in Quang Phu Cau village, on the outskirts of Hanoi, Vietnam. In this picture, incense sticks are being set out to dry, after being dipped in the incense solution.

Dear Wikimedian,

Wikimedia Commons is happy to announce that the 2024 Picture of the Year competition is now open. This year is the nineteenth 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 (2024) 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.

Round 1 will end on UTC.

Click here to vote now!

Thanks,
the Wikimedia Commons Picture of the Year committee

Question

Do you have any more information about this photo which you have edited?

I'd like to find the location and to verify its authenticity if I could. Thank you, IOHANNVSVERVS (talk) 18:28, 9 October 2025 (UTC)

@IOHANNVSVERVS, it's in Basel. You can see also in this source. -- Geagea (talk) 22:00, 9 October 2025 (UTC)
Brilliant, thank you! IOHANNVSVERVS (talk) 22:32, 9 October 2025 (UTC)

Thanks again for your help and would you be interesting in helping with this photograph? https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Men_of_Palestine_Jewish_Colonization_Association_in_the_Kabara_Swamps_(cropped).jpeg

I'd specifically like to pinpoint the year of the photo. The PICA was apparently only founded in 1924 so I don't see how/why the date is given as circa 1920-1925. IOHANNVSVERVS (talk) 00:24, 10 October 2025 (UTC)

File:Dan Hadani collection (990044339580205171).jpg

Hi, you uploaded this file in June 2020. It appears that the description of the photo "Returning the bodies of 9 soldiers to Egypt" is copied from here. However it looks like that there is a mistake in the source. In the picture several IDF soldiers are buying watermelons, no bodies. Can you figure out what is is the actual content of the photo and fix the description? Altenmann (talk) 04:54, 19 October 2025 (UTC)

The same problem with another photo of the same place "File:Dan Hadani collection (990044339560205171).jpg. And more in Category:Returning the bodies of 9 dead soldiers to Egypt, 1969 Altenmann (talk) 05:07, 19 October 2025 (UTC)

@Altenmann, Dan Hadani collection was an Israeli photo agency. The photographers were sent to news avants to take a photos. In some cases they took photos that not connected directly to the event. Each group of images is grouped under the title of that event, hence the description. this category is a maintenance for a project I have created in he.wiki to identify the place, time, and people in the pictures - her the page for this event. -- Geagea (talk) 05:16, 19 October 2025 (UTC)

Duplicated Gaspar Bouttats

Hi Geagea,

We've been working on Gaspar Bouttats on the French Wikipedia. Everything seems to confirm there is only one Gaspar Bouttats. When you created Category:Gaspar Bouttats (b.1640?) there was a duplicated entry in Wikidata too. But now, the items are merged and this commons category and Category:Gaspar Bouttats coexist.

Is it ok for you if we transfer the pictures of Category:Gaspar Bouttats (b.1640?) into Category:Gaspar Bouttats and then delete the first one?

Ticket#2026020510008476

Hello Geagea, please take a look at Ticket#2026020510008476

There is a request from a lawyer regarding a 11  pictures by photographer Oren Cohen, which he says have violated the photographer's copyright. There are links in the request to the web address of the pictures.

I wrote to the lawyer that I would upload the pictures for a deletion requests, but he is threatening to sue Wikimedia Israel, which of course has nothing to do with it.

As an administrator, you can delete the pictuers immediately. The pictuers were taken from the Yahalom unit's website. [[:Category:Yahalom]]. No proof was given that he was the photographer. Therefore, I think there should be a discussion about this. What do you think? Hanay (talk) 18:24, 5 February 2026 (UTC)

Error in the caption of a Boeing 377 during a cargo airdrop exercise

Hello; the caption of the following photo reads The Air Force youth Gadna students, boarding an Israeli made Arava military passengers aircraft on their way to Germany as part of an exchange of youth groups between the two countries when it is apparently a parcel drop exercise by paratroopers : https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:The_Air_Force_youth_Gadna_students,_boarding_an_Israeli_made_Arava_military_passengers_aircraft_on_their_way_to_Germany_as_part_of_an_exchange_of_youth_groups_between_the_two_countries_(FL45942929).jpg

Cordialement. L'amateur d'aéroplanes (talk) 18:32, 26 March 2026 (UTC)

@L'amateur d'aéroplanes, the Dan Hadani collection is a collection of Israel Press and Photo Agency. The photographers went out to photograph events for the Israeli press. During the filming, they also photographed other things unrelated to the event. The description of each group of photos is related to that event. I created a project on the Hebrew Wikipedia to identify places and events based on historical journalism in Israel. The specific photo is part of Category:Gadna youth boarded an Arava aircraft to Germany for a youth exchange program between the two countries, 1971. It's not error. -- Geagea (talk) 09:28, 27 March 2026 (UTC)

Dear Wikimedian,

Wikimedia Commons is happy to announce that the 2025 Picture of the Year competition is now open. This year is the twentieth edition of the annual Wikimedia Commons photo competition, which recognizes exceptional contributions by users on Wikimedia Commons.

הרשאות

עברית: שבוע טוב. יש לי כמה קבצים שקיבלתי ממשתמש שהעלה אותם עם עיבוד קל של בינה מלאכותית, כשברשותי העותק הלא מעובד. הייתי רוצה להחליף את הקבצים הללו בקבצים המקוריים, אך אין לי הרשאות לכך. התוכל לעזור לי בנושא? איש עיטי (talk) 18:31, 25 April 2026 (UTC)
@איש עיטי, מה זאת אומרת להחליף. תעלה את הקבצים המקוריים ונראה מה נעשה את הקבצים עם העיבוד של בינה מלאכותית. -- Geagea (talk) 21:51, 25 April 2026 (UTC)
אני לא יכול לשחרר את זכויות היוצרים – שמור ליוצר, שכבר שחרר. מדובר בעיבוד קל למדי שנראה לי יותר טוב להשאיר את הקרדיט והשחרור למעלה המקורי.איש עיטי (talk) 10:27, 26 April 2026 (UTC)
העלה את התמונות ושלח קישורים למייל במערכת VRT ואטפל באישור. (קישור לתמונות שהועלו ולתמונות הישנו) -- Geagea (talk) 10:40, 26 April 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:

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!

Regards,
ZI Jony
