سلام. حساب‌های زاپاس ایشان کدام هستند؟ Hanooz 18:39, 19 February 2021 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Hi Mardetanha, I was wondering if images like this would fit in that category. Also, this image might need a rename. I was actually looking for images on Halil Rud (looks very interesting history). Thank you for your time. Lotje (talk) 06:24, 27 February 2021 (UTC)Reply[reply]

I need to dig this deeper but for sure it is related to Halil rud. Rud ro Rood in Farsi means River Mardetanha talk 23:01, 13 March 2021 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Self promotion or more?[edit]

Hi Mardetanha, hope all is well at your end? Wonder if you could take a look at these images, seems like self-promotion to me. Thank you for your time. Lotje (talk) 05:57, 28 March 2021 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Hey, My friends, things are fine with me, we had new year in past two weeks and it was very nice but sadly now we are dealing with fourth wave of corona, so again things are locked down. how are things at your end ? I had'em all deleted as they were 100% promotional Mardetanha talk 08:21, 12 April 2021 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Thanks Mardetanha for looking into the promotional stuff. Good to hear you are doing fine. Covid lockdowns, that's all we talk about, worlwide. Actually, yesterday, I noticed Qaswa took a very nice initiative on their Germanuserpage. It is like writing in their diary, telling how sad it is there is not a single person in their country telling people loud and clear it will never be as before. That it would be a tremendous relief to hear this said - because feeling that, we already do that for a long time... They are especially fingerpointing at the politicians in their country. Cheers Mardetanha and keep up the spirit !!! Lotje (talk) 11:31, 12 April 2021 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Specific question about for example نیکی کریمی[edit]

Dear Mardetanha, I was wondering why interwikilinks like these always get wrong when reading the text afterwards: فارسی: بازیگر و تهیه‌کننده در نشست خبری فیلم آذر - سی و پنجمین جشنواره فیلم فجر نیکی کریمی.
Is it me or is the the software I ask myself. Thank you for your time. :-) Lotje (talk) 05:48, 30 April 2021 (UTC)Reply[reply]

WMF projects have never been very RTL friendly. Mardetanha talk 06:51, 1 May 2021 (UTC)Reply[reply]
If that is true, it should change. Imo making interwikilinks makes it much more interesting for people browsing, and every help is welcome as Donald Trung states. :-) Lotje (talk) 11:47, 1 May 2021 (UTC)Reply[reply]

How we will see unregistered users[edit]

Hi!

You get this message because you are an admin on a Wikimedia wiki.

When someone edits a Wikimedia wiki without being logged in today, we show their IP address. As you may already know, we will not be able to do this in the future. This is a decision by the Wikimedia Foundation Legal department, because norms and regulations for privacy online have changed.

Instead of the IP we will show a masked identity. You as an admin will still be able to access the IP. There will also be a new user right for those who need to see the full IPs of unregistered users to fight vandalism, harassment and spam without being admins. Patrollers will also see part of the IP even without this user right. We are also working on better tools to help.

If you have not seen it before, you can read more on Meta. If you want to make sure you don’t miss technical changes on the Wikimedia wikis, you can subscribe to the weekly technical newsletter.

We have two suggested ways this identity could work. We would appreciate your feedback on which way you think would work best for you and your wiki, now and in the future. You can let us know on the talk page. You can write in your language. The suggestions were posted in October and we will decide after 17 January.

Thank you. /Johan (WMF)

  • Photography in Nigeria
  • Photographing vehicles
  • I started printing my images – here’s what I've learned so far…

If you'd like to participate in this event, please consider signing up on this page. Also, if you'd like to present at one of the next meetings, please send me a quick note. Sharing your experiences and learnings with others can make a huge difference!

Hello,

I am messaging you because a contest for a sound logo for Wikimedia is being developed and your opinion as a Wikimedia Commons admin is appreciated. My team would like to know if it is possible for the top finalist sound logos in the contest to have attribution temporarily hidden from public view until all the votes are final? The idea is to let the public judge the sound logo contestants based on the merit of the logo, not the person or people who made it. Again, any feedback is appreciated.

Thank you,

De-adminship warning[edit]

Dear Mardetanha. I am writing to inform you that you are in danger of losing your admin rights on Commons because of inactivity.

If you want to keep your adminship, you need both to sign at Commons:Administrators/Inactivity section/Aug-Sep 2022 before 13 September, and also to make at least five further admin actions in the following six months. Anyone who does not do so will automatically lose their rights.

You can read the de-admin policy at Commons:Administrators/De-adminship.

At our last meeting end of August, we talked about getting in touch with the Wikimedia Foundation and offering our help for improving Wikimedia Commons. Today, I invite you to provide your input on a draft open letter to the Foundation. Over the course of the next ten days, we'll further improve the text together, before inviting people to sign it. If you're interested in providing input, please engage in the discussion on the talk page of the draft.

In the meanwhile, I hope you're well and have a great time taking photos! All the best, --Frank Schulenburg (talk) 08:42, 20 September 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Hello Mardetanha, hope everything is okay? Long time no wikisee . Wonder if this can be confirmed to be the bural place of Shahrokh Meskoob. I would add it to the article. Thank you so much for your time. Lotje (talk) 03:38, 24 October 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Hey Hey, yes yes it's his grave stone and indeed long time no wikisee, things are tough here now. Mardetanha talk 12:18, 1 November 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Hello Mardetanha, noticing you also created Commons:Wiki Loves Monuments 2022 in Iran I wonder if the contents in the participating countries page should be updated. Cheers. Lotje (talk) 09:19, 13 November 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Question from the CPUG Board[edit]

Dear user group member,

I'm writing you to today on behalf of the board of the Commons Photographers User Group. The past year has been a busy one for us. In 2022, we've had more activities than ever before in the history of our group and you'll find an overview on our group's page.

With that being said, 2022 was also a year of learning for the current board members. Most of us hadn't been involved in running the Photographers User Group and we spent quite some time on getting used to our new roles. We all feel it was a steep learning curve.

That's why, at our last board meeting, we decided to ask our members whether they'd be ok with us serving for another year. Extending our board duties to the end of 2023 would allow us to continue the work we've started this year, and to benefit from the knowledge we've built over the past twelve months.

However, in the end, it's up to you and the other members of our group to decide whether such an extension of our board term should be granted. I invite you to voice your opinion on this page:

Commons:Commons Photographers User Group/Board Elections 2022

We'll gather feedback until December 27, and we'll keep you in the loop about the outcomes of this process.

Thanks so much for your ongoing support of our group. I wish you, your family, and your friends all the best.

Most memorable shot 2022 / Wikimania 2023[edit]

Dear member of the Commons Photographers User Group,

I wish you a Happy New Year! As it has been our tradition at the beginning of the new year for a while, we're sharing our most memorable shots of the past year with each other. I invite you to share a picture that is particular meaningful to you and to describe why that's the case. Also, as Wikimania 2023 will be here before we know it (August 16 to 19), please consider adding your thoughts on our planning page, where we gather ideas for how we can make Commons photography more visible than in the years before.

All the best to you, your family, and friends! --Frank Schulenburg (talk) 21:01, 2 January 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
