This would be near impossible to turn into a SVG, so noone is likely going to do it. Plus there is still copyright issues for providing a SVG of a non-free image here.

Graphist opinion:

This is probably an impossible task, the Coat of arms is very intricate and the source images are very small, an official vector version would need to be sourced because I highly doubt anyone can recreate it accurately with the provided information. — raeky (talk | edits) 06:24, 27 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Request: Please clean the edges. Connormah (talk) 23:52, 14 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Graphist opinion(s):

I'm not sure that would be possible, the graphic size is tiny and to clean up something like that would probably require recreating the logo in vector form or to find a better quality (bigger & cleaner) source. I tried searching for it but I can't find any official logo for it on the Disney website, and from other logos this might not be the current logo they use but a very old one. As poor as it is it may be the best we got at this moment. — raeky (talk | edits) 05:26, 15 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Request: Please vectorise. Connormah (talk) 15:31, 19 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Graphist opinion(s):

Why? The image is fairly high resolution for a logo as it is. It's only use is a thumbnail in an infobox. Since this image is from an official source, and I don't see the point in creating a "bootleg" SVG, it isn't clear to me how an SVG would benefit in this situation. Perhaps we could search from an official source for an official vector version of the logo instead? -Andrew c [talk] 15:16, 25 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
This PDF has a vector version of the logo, however cause "Calgary Airport Authority" is still text, and I don't have that proper font installed it messes up the spacing when I open it in Illustrator. --Svgalbertian (talk) 18:44, 25 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Article(s): Royal Borough of Kingston

Request: Vectorise? Sorry if it's really difficult! Larger version can be found here ╟─TreasuryTagquaestor─╢ 14:42, 17 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Graphist opinion: There is some concerns about uploading vector versions of non-free media... since it's not low-rez and can be reproduced at any size. In most cases it's generally preferable to only have the MINIMUM necessary size for the illustrative purpose in the article it displays in in a raster format not vector. At least I believe thats the general feeling for non-free media, there exists a lot of vector non-free media on here though. Either way to vectorize such an image as this logo would be near impossible to perserve the same exact likeness. It's basically a painting and would have to remain raster. — raeky (talk | edits) 08:38, 18 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Re the problems of uploading vectorised non-free logos, hundreds of them exist... there can't be a problem with it... ╟─TreasuryTagChancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster─╢ 12:35, 18 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
The subject has been discussed recently at Wikipedia talk:Image use policy/Archive 12#File:Man Utd FC .svg and elsewhere. The only consensus seems to be that WP lacks a clear policy on SVGs of non-free images. Certes (talk) 22:59, 19 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
It's a problem because there is no NEED for a vector version in almost all cases where these logos are used on WP. A good quality PNG that has great screen display resolution but is far to small for print resolution (300dpi) is a all that is needed in all these cases for the article. There is no NEED for a SVG. Since it's a copyrighted/trademarked logo that some possible legal issues could arise from it's use then why have a version that can be used for print media quality when there is no need for it for a web application like wikipedia? Theres a reason why fair-use rules on WP have a low-resolution clause, SVG is by definition high-resolution. — raeky (talk | edits) 07:59, 20 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Raeky; Wikipedia has hundreds, that continued to be allowed. We have bots that tag all sorts of images for deletion for the most petty of reasons, but this is not one of them. I understand your point, but there is clearly no consensus to adopt it as policy. ╟─TreasuryTagco-prince─╢ 08:11, 20 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Nitrogen cycle

Could someone have a go at making a new image for the nitrogen cycle using this as the source? The current diagram (right) is very misleading. It is a little too complicated for me to get my head round! Thanks Smartse (talk) 14:55, 26 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

In my opinion (being of a science background) the image you think is confusing is by far easier to understand than the much more abstracted image from Nature.com. One thing I see is there is translated versions of the original image already in SVG but no English translation, so I'll create an English SVG version of this. I don't think another image needs made as the existing one is fairly well made to explain the cycle to a layman. — raeky (talk | edits) 05:07, 27 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Added a SVG English version. — raeky (talk | edits) 05:48, 27 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for converting it to an svg. The problem with this diagram though is that it doesn't illustrate more than half of the nitrogen cycle (that consisting of human inputs). I agree that this is easy for the layman to understand and that the nature image is over complicated but feel strongly that the diagram should accurately depict all parts of the cycle. Something with a similar layout to File:Carbon_cycle-cute_diagram.svg would be ideal. Smartse (talk) 20:07, 27 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I don't disagree that a more in-depth graphic should be made covering the whole aspect of the nitrogen cycle, but this simplified version does serve a purpose too. Doing another more detailed image is of course a lot more work then just taking a German svg and putting English on it. :P I'll give a crack at it if I get time (if someone else wants to take a crack at it feel free, I haven't started anything until I post something else here.) — raeky (talk | edits) 21:32, 27 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Ok, no worries, I'll try and start something off soon and perhaps bring it back here to see if you can improve it. Smartse (talk) 19:50, 30 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Image's request under progression Request taken by raeky.: I'll do it, but I'm not sure what the legality of uploading vector versions of trademarked logos is to wikipedia.

Graphist opinion(s):

Is bright pink better than yellow? — raeky (talk | edits) 18:55, 13 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
It's a bit better, but it's still hard to read (not because of color this time however). Perhaps adding a black border to the numbers would increase readability? Headbomb {ταλκκοντριβς – WP Physics} 21:22, 13 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • In the sample on the the left, please place the operculum (white in the example) in front of the lophophore rather than behind, as that where it is in real life. In the sample on the right, can you please represent the operculum as transparent with a dotted / dashed margin, so it's a "ghost" through which the rest can be seen.
  • Please omit the labels and the lines (blue in the example) pointing to the corresponding parts of the anatomy.
  • Assuming you make an SVG, please let me know how to download the SVG file so I can place the lines so as to use Template:Annotated image for the labels (see example of this technique at Annelid#Body_wall.2C_chetae_and_parapodia or Arthropod#Exoskeleton). I'll use Template:Annotated image to place labels in the right places without lines, then add the lines and re-upload the pic. --Philcha (talk) 19:46, 18 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Alright I'll put some hours into it tomarow, it is SVG. I assume you'd just use this template as an example on how to put lines and labels with the Template:Annotated image, I've never done one before. — raeky (talk | edits) 16:20, 19 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, that kind of template is what I had in mind. --Philcha (talk)
Ok, redid it so it would work better for the Annotated Image format requested. The guide for the lines is:
  Lophophore------
  Mouth-----------
                  ------------Anus
  operculum-------
                  ------------Gut/Stomach
  Retractor

Electron shell diagrams

The electron shell diagrams for technetium, cerium and darmstadtium all need fixing.

  1. Technetium: 2, 8, 18, 15, 2.
  2. Cerium: 2, 8, 18, 19, 9, 2.
  3. Darmstadtium: 2, 8, 18, 32, 32, 16, 2

Can you giva a source for the Ds configuration? I seem to see a mixture of the two (sometimes both) cited all over the web. /Lokal_Profil 12:02, 10 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
And I take it you mean "Technetium: 2, 8, 18, 13, 2." /Lokal_Profil 22:14, 10 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I've updated Cerium and created images for the other two. For the other two I'll need some source supporting the change or a decision from e.g. WikiProject Elements (left a note there) to change to the new convention. This is mainly because I don't want to accidentally mess up an article, especially not if it is featured. Also I noticed that the Roentgenium image and infobox info doesn't agree so one of the two would have to change. /Lokal_Profil 23:04, 10 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Was hoping for something more official but it seems to be at least as good a source as for the current configurations. I'll up the images later today or tomorrow. Meanwhile the text in Darmstadtium should probably be updated since it's currently saying "2, 8, 18, 32, 32, 17, 1" throughout. /Lokal_Profil 15:26, 13 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hi guys, I've tried to construct a site plan of the Neolithic burial chamber at Parc Cwm long cairn, but it's pretty poor to be honest. And I don't think it's particularly accurate, either, which is less than ideal.
An arial shot of the site is available here.
It would also benefit from having dimensions added. They are: 72 feet (22 m) north-south, and tapering from 43 feet (13 m) wide at its entrance (to the south), to about 20 feet (6 m) (to the north).
On the article I've noted various features as a key beneath the plan. It may look better if they are incorporated within the plan, but I'll leave that to you to decide - just a thought.
I have no preference as to colour/s, but the actual site is various shades of grey.
The article is in the process of acedemic peer review, prior to WP:FAC. The current plan is so poor that just about anything would be an improvement, so I'd really appreciate some help with this. Look forward to hearing from you. Cheers, Daicaregos (talk) 19:32, 10 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, this is what i've come up with. Please let me know if there is anything you need changed. I would also like some more images if you can find some. --Beao 20:11, 11 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Beao, looks great - and a huge improvement on my feeble attempt. I have a couple of suggestions, though. Hope that's ok. a) The passageway is almost exactly alligned north-south, so could you move the compass point to reflect that? b) The eastern edge of the cromlech is as straight as the western edge. Can you amend? c) Would you be able to make the outside line into a double line, which would show the drystone retaining wall (see here: [[File:Parc Cwm, Gwyr - elevated.JPG]])? # 1 should point to this. d) The forecourt is a narrow bell shape. It doesn't show up in the arial shot too well, but may be seen better in these pictures: [[File:Parc le Breos, Gwyr y cwrt.JPG]] and [[File:Parc le Breos, Gwyr y cwrt o'r dde.JPG]]. e) Can you point # 3 to one of the sills at the entrance to one of the trancept chambers. One of the sills can be seen here: [[File:Parc le Breos, siambrau de.JPG]]. f) I like the measurement at the bottom of the plan. But I think the measurement (in feet) should be 50, rather than 10. g) Could you soften the southwest corner a little - where the straight line and the curve meet? h) Could you add a title: 'Site plan – Parc Cwm long cairn'.? Any questions - give me a shout. Cheers, Daicaregos (talk) 21:55, 11 October 2009 (UTC) (Moved from User talk:Beao)[reply]
Updated. Comments? --Beao 13:40, 13 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
a)  Done; b) The retaining wall on each side of the cromlech is quite straight. Could you straighten out the right side in your plan please; c)  Done; d)  Done; e)  Done; f)  Done; g) The eastern (left) and western (right) walls of the cromlech go on to form the south (bottom) edges in a gentle curve, rather than an angled corner. Could you soften them out please; h) Could you add a title: 'Site plan – Parc Cwm long cairn'. If not, no worries, just let me know; i) could you check the angle between the western (left) edge and the northern (top) edge of the cromlech, as I didn't realise the northern wall was so far from a west-west alignment. Thanks.
Nearly there, Beao. Thanks. Daicaregos (talk) 15:24, 13 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Image's request under progression Request taken by Andrew c.: seems simple enough ; the original file had the border, but was too large and caused a thumbnail error, so when the user shrunk it down, appears the right side was clipped.

Great work - much appreciated. Some minor comments: For File:Fully submerged hydrofoils self-stabilizing system.svg, you have two label both reading Water Height Sensor and Boom Sensor (as does the original). In reality, one of these (the top one) is the boom sensor and the other is the water level sensor. Suggest you amend both your labels. I would also change "electrical engine" to "electrical actuator", since actuator, for me, conveys more meaning. For the other image, I think the only thing I'm missing is a sketch of how the inverted T looks when bent - there is a tiny sketch in the original. But bottom line: excellent, and much appreciated. I'll call in again sometime next week and update the article with the images. --Tagishsimon
