Participation

Bonjour , est-ce que vous seriez prêt à participer (régulièrement ou pas) au Projet photographie de WP FR ? On a besoin de bras... Par exemple, ajouter des liens vers vos photos de commons ou améliorer les bios de photographes africains. Cordialement, Jatayou (talk) 12:41, 2 November 2019 (UTC)

BonjourJatayou. Merci pour l'intérêt. ce serait avec grand plaisir de participer au Projet photographie. Veuillez me dire simplement de quoi il s'agit concrètement et comment le faire . je suis sur apporter me modeste contribution et et apprendre énormément de vous et de la communauté. Bien a vous--Adoscam (talk) 07:20, 4 November 2019 (UTC).
Excellente nouvelle  ! (Je rajoute User:Polmars). Il n'y a pas de règles. Si j'ai le plaisir de vous voir travailler sur les mêmes sujets que moi, je bosse essentiellement sur les biographies de photographes, plus particulièrement en ce moment sur les femmes et les photographes anciens. On trouve des suggestions ici] et . Vous pouvez aussi améliorer les nouveaux articles. Je vous ai ajouté sur le projet WP FR. Très amicalement, Jatayou (talk) 08:08, 4 November 2019 (UTC)
Très bien. laisse moi le temps de lire un peu et commencer mes petits pas. Merci et à Bientôt.--Adoscam (talk) 08:31, 4 November 2019 (UTC)
Salut Jatayou! il y a quelques jours nous avons convenus travailler ensemble sur des projets de photographieProjet photographie. j'ai constaté que la plupart des articles proposés en écriture sur wikipédia existent déjà en anglais. je voudrais savoir si notre travail va consister traduire ou bien écrire de nouveaux articles en français.Pour ce qui concerne la biosphère en quoi puis-je être utile dans ce projet concrètement? je ne trouve pas des propositions liées en photographie liées a l’Afrique. Merci.--Adoscam (talk) 15:12, 27 November 2019 (UTC)
Bonjour Adoscam, Ha non.. tu verras au fur et à mesure que tu creuseras qu'il y a des tonnes de photographes intéressants non présents sur WP EN ! Exemples où l'on peut trouver des liens rouges : , ou là. Ensuite, à toi de choisir ! Autre solution, voir les sous-pages ici et faire une recherche avec le mot-clé "photographe" (pour ma part j'ai ajouté une trentaine de femmes photographes finlandaises de très bon niveau). Enfin, si les photographes du XIXe siècle t'intéressent particulièrement, oui, ce serait super de faire des traductions bien faites voir enrichies à partir de commons ou de WP EN. Quand tu en a fait une, tu me le dis et je referai une passe complémentaire. Bon courage ! Jatayou (talk) 11:35, 28 November 2019 (UTC)

Cemeteries in Benin

Bonjour.

Je viens d'enlever les 3 images du cimetière Pk-14 de la categorie Category:Cemeteries in Benin. La raison est expliquée dans COM:OVERCAT. Dites-moi si ce n'est pas clair. Cordialement. Badzil (talk) 15:30, 14 November 2019 (UTC)

Bonjour. je ce n'est pas claire pour moi. j'avais vue des images de cimetières dans cette catégorie et j'ai ajouté les miennes. Expliquez moi pour je puisse mieux comprendre.merci--Adoscam (talk) 16:08, 14 November 2019 (UTC)
Tout d'abord, merci pour vos ajouts de photo :) J'ai vu qu'il y avait plusieurs photos qui pouvaient appartenir à une même catégorie. Je l'ai donc créée : Category:Cimetière Pk-14. Cette catégorie appartient à la catégorie Category:Cemeteries in Benin. Il est donc inutile de catégoriser vos photos à la fois dans Category:Cimetière Pk-14 et Category:Cemeteries in Benin. Cordialement. Badzil (talk) 16:33, 14 November 2019 (UTC)
ok c'est claire merci. je me demandais aussi si ce n'est pas mieux de renommer la catégorie Cimetière Pk-14 en categrrie Cimetière Pk-14 Cotonou-Bénin? je me dis que ce serait plus indicatif. si c'est pas possible, pas de souci. merci pour l'apport.--Adoscam (talk) 16:41, 14 November 2019 (UTC)
En général les noms de ville et de pays ne sont pas ajoutés aux noms de catégorie. Voir Category:Père-Lachaise Cemetery pour exemple. Une exception est lorsqu'il peut y avoir confusion comme Category:Cimetière du Nord (Reims) et Category:Cimetière du Nord (Rouen) par exemple. Dans le cas du cimetière Pk-14, je n'ai pas trouvé d'autre cimetière avec le même nom. Cordialement. Badzil (talk) 16:48, 14 November 2019 (UTC)
Ok. c'est très bien clair pour moi maintenant. N'oublie de toujours apporter tes touches et commentaires dans mes contributions comme tu viens de le faire . j'en ai vraiment besoin. Cordialement.--Adoscam (talk) 17:36, 14 November 2019 (UTC)

Autopatrolled rights given

Hello. I just wanted to let you know that I have granted autopatrol 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. - FitIndia Talk Mail 13:43, 25 November 2019 (UTC)

Bonjour Fitindia et merci pour la confiance. ceci me motive à mieux contribuer. J'avoue que je dois encore comprendre comment fonctionne tout ceci. Surtout pour avoir le droit d’utilisateur sur mes contributions et les fonctionnement de Flickr.--Adoscam (talk) 15:51, 25 November 2019 (UTC)

Valued images

Hi there. It is probably a good idea to identify on you home page your VIs that are by other photographers. Best wishes, Charles (talk) 18:33, 30 December 2019 (UTC)

Hello CharlesThanks for the remark. In fact, I wanted to customize the home page that I liked from someone else. I started but I haven't finished. I will even delete this valuable image section while waiting for the update. Also tell me how to proceed concretely to have my home page identified by other phorgaphs. I don't know how to do it, thank you for helping me. thank you and best also for you and around you.--Adoscam (talk) 08:17, 31 December 2019 (UTC)
I don't know the best way to do it, but have a look at how other users do it - that's what I usually do! I was amused by the name of the bread fruit tree below. Google translates belefoutu as 'pretty much'. Looks more like 'well-fucked' to me!! Charles (talk) 10:14, 31 December 2019 (UTC)
ok thank you very much for your comment on the image. Yes Bèléfoutou is the name given to this fruit in Fon a local language of Benin.--Adoscam (talk) 10:33, 31 December 2019 (UTC)

Hi Adoscam, 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.
  • Please know and follow the file rename guidelines.

A file that you have uploaded to Wikimedia Commons, File:Vue de l'exposition agbaraWomen MuséeZinsou.jpg, is a derivative work, containing an "image within an image". Examples of such works would include a photograph of a sculpture, a scan of a magazine cover, or a map that has been altered from the original. In each of these cases, the rights of the creator of the original must be considered, as well as those of the creator of the derivative work.

While the description page states who made this derivative work, it currently doesn't specify who created the original work, so the overall copyright status is unclear. If you did not create the original work depicted in this image, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright.

Please edit the file description and add the missing information, or the file may be deleted. If you created the original content yourself, enter this information as the source. If someone else created the content, 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.

Study shows Wiki Love Africa recruitment makes a difference

Hello Adoscam

We are writing because you have participated in the Wiki Loves Africa (WLA) photo competition in the past. Results have been published and winning pictures may be seen here !

This year WLA partnered with the research organization CAT Lab (previously CivilServant) to help us evaluate the effectiveness of one of our recruitment efforts. You may or may not have received a message on your user talk page encouraging you to participate again in this year's competition.

We are excited to share with you their study found our recruitment message was a success and may have resulted in as many as 2,000 additional contributed photos. We hope you agree this is great news for Africa and its representation across Wikimedia. You can read more about the study and the results in this blog post.

If you have any questions about the study, we encourage you to ask CAT Lab's research manager Juliakamin(cs).

Anthere, for the Wiki Loves Africa Team

Dear Adoscam,

Thank you for contributing to Wiki Loves Monuments 2020, and for sharing your pictures with the whole world! We would like to ask again for a few minutes of your time. Thanks to the participation of people like you, the contest gathered more than 200K+ pictures of cultural heritage objects from more than 50 countries around the world.

You can find all your pictures in your upload log, and are of course very welcome to keep uploading images and help develop Wikimedia Commons, even though you will not be able to win more prizes (just yet). To make future contests even more successful than this year, we would like to invite you to share your experiences with us in a short survey.

Please fill in this short survey and help us learn what you liked and didn't like about Wiki Loves Monuments 2020.

Kind regards,

Comments I notice you're using a Nikon camera now. That's working out much better than the cellphone. I consider this good quality, but you need to add at least one category for the laboratory waste, and maybe more than one. Do a search for appropriate categories, and post a reply when you've added some. Ikan Kekek 13:59, 4 March 2021 (UTC)
 Comment I just added some categories. I hope it can be ok Thank you for your courage my new used device ------~~~~Category:Pages with unsubstituted signatures
 Comment I agree with Category:Biomedical waste but not the other categories. If you added another category, I think it should be either more specific or something like "plastic waste" or "plastic medical devices", but don't create a category that doesn't exist; "Waste medical" doesn't work grammatically in English but I think it's an unnecessary category. -- Ikan Kekek 18:58, 4 March 2021 (UTC) Someby has already remove the catégorie "Waste medical" is it correct now?--~~~~Category:Pages with unsubstituted signatures

Flickypedia soft launch and a huge thank you

Dear fellow Commons photographer,

I hope this message finds you well. As you might already know, the Flickr Foundation has been busy creating a new Flickr-to-Commons bridge (“Flickypedia”) this year. After a successful demo at the GLAM Wiki Conference in Montevideo, the Flickr Foundation team is now inviting all members of the Commons Photographers User Group to be the first to review their alpha, reporting any technical issues or other feedback via the Flickypedia project talk page.

At the same time, this message is an opportunity for me to thank you for your trust and support over the past couple of years. Since 2017, we've grown into being one of the largest user groups in the Wikimedia universe. I've tremendously enjoyed interacting with all of our members when it came to joint photowalks at Wikimanias, virtual Zoom meetings where we covered a wide variety of photography topics, as well as our annual “Most memorable shot of the year”, among many other events. As I'm not running for an official position in our current board election, this will be my last message on behalf of the user group to you. Thanks for all the happy moments we shared together over the years! I hope you'll continue creating free images for the millions of people we serve through Wikipedia and Commons.

All the best, --Frank Schulenburg (talk) 19:36, 9 December 2023 (UTC)

Hi @Frank Schulenburg Thank you for leaving me this message. I participated in the vote on December 10 for the candidates for the commons user group. Kindly regards Adoscam (talk) 09:40, 11 December 2023 (UTC)

Welcome, Dear Patroller!

English  español  日本語  മലയാളം  Türkçe  +/−


Counter Vandalism Unit

Hi Adoscam,

You now have the Patroller right and may call yourself a patroller! Please take a moment to read the updated Commons:Patrol to learn how Patrolling works and how we use it to fight vandalism.

As you know already, the patrolling functionality is enabled for all edits, not just for new-page creations. This enables us to keep track of, for example, edits made by anonymous users here on Commons.

We could use your help at the Counter Vandalism Unit. For example by patrolling an Anonymous-edits checklist and checking a day-part.

If you have any questions please leave a message on the CVU talkpage or ask for help on IRC in #wikimedia-commons. -- CptViraj (talk) 12:35, 11 July 2025 (UTC)

Hi Adoscam. I noticed that a deletion request you made and others were not done correctly.

This is not an unusual mistake, but I'm leaving you this message to help you get this right in the future.

There are several steps to making a deletion request (DR) correctly; among other things you must transclude the deletion into the correct daily DR list, and to notify the page creator and optionally other human (non-bot) editors of the page. By far the easiest way to do all of this correctly is to use the automatic Nominate for deletion or Nominate category for discussion tool in the Tools menu on the sidebar per COM:DR#Starting requests and COM:CFD#Starting requests, which takes care of all that using vetted Javascript. If you prefer to add the {{Delete}} template or {{Category for discussion}} template manually, you are required to follow the instructions in the template, including the "Click here to show further instructions" portion (or Commons:Deletion requests/Listing a request manually policy or the "By hand" portion of COM:CFD#Starting requests, normally collapsed). Again, though, there is no need to follow complex instructions if you use the automatic tools.

Also worth knowing: on Commons, {{Delete}} is not a "speedy delete" request like it is on many other projects; instead, it starts a discussion of whether the file should be deleted. If you think a particular media file really obviously does not belong on Commons, see the instructions at Commons:Criteria for speedy deletion. Common cases that are better handled with a speedy delete than a DR include:

Common bad reasons people have for making DRs in the first place include:

  • after renaming a category, trying to delete the resulting redirect in violation of policy COM:CATRED
  • making a DR for a file where there is already a current DR
  • trying to delete one's own work within 7 days (use {{G7}} instead)
  • placing {{Delete}} on the deletion subpage itself, or on a talk page.

Also, please don't use {{Ffd}} (that's an English Wikipedia thing).

If you have further questions about the deletion process, you can ask them at COM:Help desk or COM:Village pump.  — 🇺🇦Jeff G. please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 14:27, 16 February 2026 (UTC)

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!

Commons Photographers: Our next meeting (05/2026)

Dear member of the Commons Photographers User Group,

I hope you’re well and enjoy your time as a photographer on Wikimedia Commons. In my role of the new chair of the user group, I have a couple of updates to share with you.

After the election, the new board met for the first time on March 21 and immediately got to work. We elected the organization’s officers and decided to move from quarterly to monthly board meetings. We believe meeting more frequently will create more opportunities to serve our members effectively and help move the group forward.

We also successfully applied for a pre-conference at the upcoming Wikimania in Paris (July 21–25). If you’re planning to attend the conference, please consider joining us on July 21th for a day full of conversations about photography and Commons. Please sign up here if you’re interested.

And finally, it’s my pleasure to invite you to our first online meeting, which will take place on May 31. Our member Wojciech, an experienced concert photographer, will give a talk on photographing orchestras during live performances. I’m especially excited that we’ll have the opportunity to meet online again and am very much looking forward to this event.

Please feel free to sign up for our first meeting in 2026 on this page: Online Meeting on May 31st.

In the meanwhile, I hope you're well and have a great time taking photos!

All the best, --Frank Schulenburg (talk) 14:09, 20 May 2026 (UTC)
