Thanks

Thank you for your wonderful job by putting pictures of swimmers in Wikipedia. Really was missing someone here to do this. Take the most of pictures you can, because we really need. And one personal request, if you could take pictures of the maximum possible of brazilian swimmers, I'll appreciate even more. Thanks again. Tamakukan (talk) 13:54, 5 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I see that Wikipedia needs more pictures and I have taken already about 25 gigabytes photos and I upload what I can now. I have not enough time because I am from other city and I want to see Kazan and visit many competitions. So I have only night time to upload something (now is 23:49 in Kazan). I would be happy if somebody say me EXACTLY swimmers which photos are needed to upload in Wikipedia because I can't keep track of all pages without pictures. Sorry for my not perfect English, it isn't my native language. Chan-Fan 20:51, 5 August 2015 (UTC)

My native language is not English, too. Well, from what I see here, it seems have no photos in 80% of swimmers articles. You can download everything in the Commons, take your time. Even in articles that already has photos, it helps to have more photos yet. JRachid (talk) 23:31, 5 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Attention!

Dear friends, three last days of World Champs in Kazan are very busy for me so I will update photos of sessions from August 6 to August 9 after I will back home (August 11). Chan-Fan 18:21, 7 August 2015 (UTC)

Hey

Hi, Chan-Fan. I understand that you're busy now at the FINA championships. When the meet is over, would you consider undertaking the replacement/addition of the current standardized version of the 159 athletes in Category:Olympic swimmers of China? There are about 4400 transclusions of the infobox template and only about 2000 have been upgraded to the current standard so far. Several of us are working our way through the remaining examples, but we could really use some help! Thanks -- hope you're enjoying your time in Kazan.

Also, please consider joining Wikipedia:WikiProject Swimming when you have time. Cheers. Dirtlawyer1 (talk) 18:36, 7 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I try to help you when come home. I've joined the Project. Tomorrow I will visit morning and evening sessions swimming and water polo bronze and gold finals, on August 9 I will go to all sessions of swimming and go home. Please remind me to start uploading photos on August 11 because I can forget or to defer the matter out of laziness :-D (for example I visited WC fencing epee finals and took photos but haven't uploaded them yet). All the best, Chan-Fan 20:29, 7 August 2015 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for August 13

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Jayden Hadler, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Tim Phillips. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Licensing inquiry on John Part's picture for a GA nomination review

Hello. I was wondering if you could help me out with one of the pictures you uploaded to Commons. On the 2001 PDC World Darts Championship article on en.wikipedia, these is a picture of John Part located here. I noticed that the link to the Gazette Live link no longer works. I tried looking for a live copy and archived copies on Archive.Org / Archive.is but no luck. The reason why I contacted you is because I'm currently reviewing the 2001 PDC article for a GA nomination, and that picture I can't verify where it does have the right licensing or not. If you knew where I could find this picture with the appropriate license, I'd really appreciate it! --MrLinkinPark333 (talk) 01:20, 9 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hello! Unfortunately I don't know and remember how I uploaded there but I think that was not free licensed file uploaded by fair use criteria (and I don't understand why it moves to Commons). However I've found a lot of pictures with free license at Flickr, you can try to search something there. Voltmetro 07:23, 9 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Daria Ustinova

Hi! I'm writing you since you know both Russian and the swimming world. There seem to be two swimmers called Daria Ustinova, one called Daria K. Ustinova and one Daria S. Ustinova. The article on Daria S. was recently redirected to Daria Ustinova (after this afd: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Emily Escobedo) and then deleted once I realized they are not the same person. I am now trying to figure out which wiki-links should go where. To do that I looked up the results of Daria S. and it seems maybe she should have her own article after all [1] (assuming these results are actually hers and not misattributed). What do you think, is that list of results accurate? Pax:Vobiscum (talk) 03:35, 7 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thomas James Hallock

Hi, I am Themanwithnowifi I am mainly active on the Dutch wiki and I am currently working on Thomas James Hallock. He is a American-Swiss swimmer that hasn't have a article on the enwiki. I have tried to find out why and when he started to compete for Switzerland but I can't find anything. Are you able to help me? Kind regards Themanwithnowifi (talk) 20:50, 25 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. I always use a profile information from the FINA website (https://www.fina.org/athletes/1190670/thomas-hallock). Unfortunately, there is no info about the first his performance for Switzerland. But according the website, his first major competition was the 2019 European Short Course Swimming Championships in Glasgow. Results book is here. I think he never represents USA in international competitions but I have no source of it. All the events from 2016 to 2019 are American competitions between university teams etc. Voltmetro 21:10, 25 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, that was what I already found. Most of the time we can find an explanation why someone switch nationality but here I find nothing. Themanwithnowifi (talk) 13:16, 26 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I did not find any about switching nationality. Probably he represented Switzerland whole career (life). I think he simply could not qualify to the US team. Voltmetro 15:26, 26 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
