FPC nomination
[edit]Hey, welcome to [English] Wikipedia! I've fixed up your nomination a bit and left some comments there. =) Shoemaker's Holiday (talk) 13:36, 9 March 2008 (UTC)
Hey, you did a bunch of changes to the gallery of images in Cathedral. I've reverted them, but I wanted to explain and invite you to discuss it further if you'd like. The existing set was somewhat carefully thought about, to include a spread of geographic styles and locations. If a change is suggested, then it should be clear that the changes are an improvement, and there was no way to see that, since you didn't make any comments in the edit logs. Also, you included St. Peter's Basilica, which is not even a cathedral, and so it surely didn't belong. Tb (talk) 21:20, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
- I'm glad for your work; I think that many of the images you added were beautiful, but let's work on incremental improvements. I don't object to adding images in similar places or styles to replace others, but it would be good to discuss them first b/c some care has gone into the selection. I agree completely that there is much room for improvement. As for St. Peter's, the cathedral of the Diocese of Rome is St. John Lateran, and St. Peter's is not a cathedral. The article on St. Peter's basilica is clear about the matter. Tb (talk) 21:59, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
- I mention St. Peter's because you included an image of St. Peter's in Cathedral, where it doesn't belong, because that page is about cathedrals. In any case, my request is that you post your suggestions for improvements on Talk:Cathedral so that they can be discussed. Tb (talk) 22:06, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
edit summary
[edit]You remember my comment on Amsterdam? I have seen in your contributions that you have never made a single edit summary. Perhaps you do not now what an edit summary is. Therefore this helpful link. Good editing... Tomeasytalk 16:10, 21 May 2008 (UTC)
- That will be fine. On the other hand, adding all the references, which you are currently doing is an extremely good job. Tomeasytalk 16:24, 21 May 2008 (UTC)
references need to support a claim
[edit]This reference about the market halls in Amsterdam does not back any of the claims we make in the Amsterdam article. Therefore, it's not right to put it at the end of the history paragraph as you did. It makes the readers think that there is a source backing at least the sentence that they have read before the citation, which is not the case here. As mush as I appreciate adding references, they have to match the statements in the text. I am writing here, because I did not want to revert you again (after reverting already the other reference), but rather inform you and ask to correct this in some way or another. Tomeasytalk 17:12, 21 May 2008 (UTC)
The article were the reference leads to states that this building is the first stock exchange of Amsterdam and that it was built in 1607. Therefore it is the oldest ongoing stock exchange in the world. But I will correct it.
- Actually, it was in 1602. I corrected the whole sentence all together and placed a reference to it. Tomeasytalk 11:18, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
It's very good that you are adding so many references. Did you take notice that I am correcting all of them with respect to one missing information, the publisher? It's a very useful information, so perhaps you can add this to the references that you are going to put next and, that would be great, to the references that you had put before.
Another comment: All you refs are in Dutch. It would be more appropriate to use English references, while some Dutch references is of course acceptable. I can imagine that you have specified your search engine to retrieve primarily Dutch sources. If you disable this feature, you will likely find a lot of English references. Thanks, and happy editing. Tomeasytalk 11:30, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
- That's OK. Just keep going, while trying to take my comments into account. I think we are on a good path. Once we have iterated through the article we might nominate again. Tomeasytalk 11:49, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
- Do you understand what I meant with this: one missing information, the publisher? Please, incorporate the publisher information, it's very easy and makes your references more useful. I am tired of running after you filling in this tag. Tomeasytalk 15:21, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
- Good that you ask. Below is the template for web citations. Just click on edit to see the source code and you will understand how it works. As you can see, there are many more fields that you might fill in. If possible, fill them all in. Unfortunately, nobody does that. Of course some are more and some are less important. After title and url, I consider publisher as the most important field. That's why I was so picky. I hope I could help you. {{cite web | last = | first = | authorlink = | coauthors = | title = | work = | publisher = | date = | url = | format = | doi = | accessdate = }} Tomeasytalk 15:57, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
Your recent edits
[edit]Hi there. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. If you can't type the tilde character, you should click on the signature button 
located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you! --SineBot (talk) 16:16, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
re: changes
[edit]First of all, I do not know which of his edits you are objecting. User: Krator edited a lot today on Amsterdam. Second, and most important, I think it will be the best if you tell him directly, or make up a thread on the talk page about your objects and that you would like to revert them. I am sure he will not mind and if you provide strong arguments others might back your intention. In the end, we all want a better article. As a third point I would like to mention that you have the same right as I to revert an edit. So, if you consider this to be the way to go than you do not need my assistance. Tomeasytalk 17:14, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
- Large deletions are often contentious and IMHO should be discussed on the talk page. So, I can understand your feeling without having read the actual parts. Anyway, if you want my opinion, just contact him brievely and find out if he is OK with everything. Tomeasytalk 17:19, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
Amsterdam
[edit]Thank you for your new photographs of Amsterdam! I categorized them on Wikimedia Commons.
I removed the "International relations" section from the Amsterdam article. Apart from the fact that the table was incomplete, I believe it should not have a separate section in this article. The international relations could be mentioned in the City government section, but I prefer them to be only discussed in Government of Amsterdam#International cooperation. Unless you can find any sources that show the notability of the international cooperation. – Ilse@ 16:47, 26 May 2008 (UTC)
Your image KeizersgrachtReguliersgrachtAmsterdam.jpg is a featured picture candidate on Wikipedia now, see also Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/Keizersgracht in Amsterdam. – Ilse@ 20:34, 24 August 2008 (UTC)
Sharpness in my photos
[edit]Hi! Well, I think it is probably a combination of having a good camera and the stitching technique I often use. I often take multiple photos and stitch them together to create a much higher resolution image, and then I downsample it to a more manageable size, which also has the effect of making the image sharper. There isn't really any great secret to it. Hope that explanation helps! Diliff | (Talk) (Contribs) 21:54, 28 July 2008 (UTC)

Missing image Image:RedLightDistrictAmsterdamTheNetherlands.jpg
[edit]
Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Image:RedLightDistrictAmsterdamTheNetherlands.jpg, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Image:RedLightDistrictAmsterdamTheNetherlands.jpg is an image page for a missing or corrupt image or an empty image description page for a Commons-hosted image.
To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Image:RedLightDistrictAmsterdamTheNetherlands.jpg, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself.

Transport vs Transportation
[edit]...Except New York, Tokyo, and many others. I think transportation really covers the whole topic, whereas transport feels like it just covers vehicles. Nice call on the photo removal by the way, and good edits.--Anna Frodesiak (talk) 01:13, 19 February 2009 (UTC)
- Either way is good. The dictionary calls them as quite close. I think Wiki London article has Transport. So, you can choose. I am happy you removed the Sister/Twin city part. Good edit.--Anna Frodesiak (talk) 01:51, 19 February 2009 (UTC)

Re: NYPD
[edit]G'day, The white balance was done by eye with curves. For the sharpening I used "smart sharpen" in photoshop. I couldn't tell you the exact algorithm the program uses. The radius was 0.5 pixels, the percentage was roughly 40% and the fade amount for shadows was 100% (so the sharpening was only done on the brighter areas to avoid noise). I don't mind the crop at all as a photograph, but as an illustration for an encyclopaedia I think a crop needs to be done (as much as it annoyed me when a crop of File:Bridgewater Causeway.jpg was promoted).

Okay, you say your camera is one hour behind, which would make the time 16:56. According to the start list. There were no starters from Acqua & Sapone +/- 10 min. from that time. The closest riders are Vladimir Miholjevic, who was scheduled to start 16:45 and finished 10 min. 47 sec. afterwards, and Stefano Garzelli, who was scheduled to start 17:24. If there were a slight delay in the time schedule, and you were standing close to the finish line, it could be Miholjevic. Or with a larger delay it could be either him or Garzelli. Who do you think it is? It should say at the sign on the front of the car, but for me it's incomprehensible. Hoping for positive feedback. lil2mas (talk) 00:18, 9 May 2010 (UTC)
- I've taken another look at my camera just now and it is behind approximately 51 min. So the rider in my picture should be Vladimir Miholjevic according to your data. Tnx for the info! --Massimo Catarinella (talk) 12:58, 9 May 2010 (UTC)

Philadelphia skyline
[edit]Dear Sir:
I am sorry to bother you, I was doing some research on what the Philadelphia skyline, since I am not a resident of the area, & I really appreciate the quality of the image you put up. The only problem that I have is since the buildings are so close together, you can not really appreciate the sense of scale, & how the buildings relate to each other. I found an image which may give you some idea about what I am talking about. If you happen to swing by the Philadelphia metro area maybe you can get a similar photo. Please leave your answer on your talk page.

Hi there,
I am afraid I will not be visiting Philadelphia anytime soon ;). More so, the image you're referring to was taken from a chopper since there is no building that high in the city nor are there mountains or observation towers. So all in all no chance of me taking such a picture. That doesn't mean however I do not appreciate your comment.
