Hi Voyager, 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 ocurrences 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.

Umbenennen meiner Fotos[edit]

Lieber Voyager ich habe festgestellt, dass Du begonnen hast einige meiner Fotos zumzubennennen (zuletzt "File:2012-04-26 Sense-Sarino (Foto Dietrich Michael Weidmann) 301.JPG") in Kirche Gurmels. Dabei entfernst Du insbesondere meinen Namen als Fotografen aus dem Dateinamen (die Namensnennung ist aber im Prinzip ein Teil der Lizenz). Eigentlich ist diese Umbenennung vollkommen unnötig und im vorliegenden Fall sollte dann zumindest eben mein Name als Urheber erhalten bleiben... - Gurmels liegt ja im Einzugsgebiet der Sense (auf Esperanto Sarino) und dass es sich dabei um die Kirche handelt sieht man ja auf dem Gebiet, die Fotos gehören ja zu einer Serie. Gruss DidiWeidmann (talk) 13:15, 23 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Lieber Didi. Ich muss dir widersprechen, und zwar aus mehreren Gründen.

  • Die von dir gewählten Dateinamen entsprechen nicht der Hauptanforderung von Commons:Dateibenennung. Sie sollen nämlich "beschreiben, was auf dem Bild dargestellt wird" (Zitat). Je genauer, desto besser. Insbesondere eine präzise Ortsangabe als Teil des Dateinamens halte ich für unerlässlich. Dass Gurmels zum Saanebezirk gehört, wissen die allerwenigsten - ebenso wenig, was Sarino eigentlich bedeuten soll (ich persönlich denke dabei an einen italienischen Vornamen).
  • Der Dateiname hat rein gar nichts mit dem Urheber, der Lizenz oder mit irgendeiner Auslegung derselben zu tun. Wer wissen will, wer der Urheber ist, kann die entsprechenden Informationen in der Bildbeschreibung nachschauen. Und ausschliesslich dort gehören sie hin.
  • Dass auf deinen Fotos erkennbar sein soll, was dargestellt wird, stimmt leider in den allerwenigsten Fällen. Wie es scheint, sind sie einfach nach Region geordnet und durchnummeriert, was jeweils zu sehr grossen Serien führt. Das mag zwar auf deiner Festplatte sinnvoll sein und ordentlich aussehen, aber Commons-Nutzer können nur selten etwas damit anfangen. Häufig fehlen in der Bildbeschreibung ausreichend genaue Angaben. File:2012-07-18-Regiono Arbergo (Foto Dietrich Michael Weidmann) 280.JPG zum Beispiel soll irgendein Gebäude in Kerzers zeigen. Was für ein Gebäude das sein soll, steht dort nicht. Dass jemals ein Ortskundiger die lückenhafte Bildbeschreibung ergänzen wird, ist höchst zweifelhaft. Das Foto ist somit für Commons-Nutzer, die sich in Kerzers nicht auskennen, unbrauchbar.
  • Meine Umbenennungen geschehen nicht aus Willkür, sondern sind mit den Vorgaben in Commons:Dateien verschieben konform. Ich beziehe mich dabei insbesondere auf Regel 2: "Änderung komplett bedeutungsloser oder zweideutiger Namen in sinnvolle, die beschreiben, was auf dem Bild zu sehen ist." (Zitat) Gemäss Punkt 2 der Fussnote trifft dies unter anderem bei folgendem Fall zu: "Die einzige aussagekräftige Information ist der Name des Fotografen oder des Rechteinhabers." (Zitat) Beim Beispiel Kerzers kommt noch Punkt 4 der Fussnote hinzu: "... ist die Ortsangabe so weit gefasst, dass die meisten Nutzer daran ohne Hilfe eines Ortskundigen nicht erkennen könnten, wo das Bild genau gemacht wurde oder was das Bild zeigt." (Zitat)
  • Deine Dateinamen verschwinden nicht, sondern bleiben als Weiterleitung erhalten.

Vielen Dank für dein Verständnis. Gruss --Voyager (talk) 14:50, 23 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Important message for file movers[edit]

A community discussion has been closed where the consensus was to grant all file movers the suppressredirect user right. This will allow file movers to not leave behind a redirect when moving files and instead automatically have the original file name deleted. Policy never requires you to suppress the redirect, suppression of redirects is entirely optional.

Possible acceptable uses of this ability:

  • To move recently uploaded files with an obvious error in the file name where that error would not be a reasonable redirect. For example: moving "Sheep in a tree.jpg" to "Squirrel in a tree.jpg" when the image does in fact depict a squirrel.
  • To perform file name swaps.
  • When the original file name contains vandalism. (File renaming criterion #5)

Please note, this ability should be used only in certain circumstances and only if you are absolutely sure that it is not going to break the display of the file on any project. Redirects should never be suppressed if the file is in use on any project. When in doubt, leave a redirect. If you forget to suppress the redirect in case of file name vandalism or you are not fully certain if the original file name is actually vandalism, leave a redirect and tag the redirect for speedy deletion per G2.

The malicious or reckless breaking of file links via the suppressredirect user right is considered an abuse of the file mover right and is grounds for immediate revocation of that right. This message serves as both a notice that you have this right and as an official warning. Questions regarding this right should be directed to administrators. --Majora (talk) 21:36, 7 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hallo Voyager,

ich fürchte, bei der Bildbeschreibung hat es einen Fehler gegeben.

Im Jahre 1856 hätten die Herren zu solch feierlichem Anlass wohl eher Zylinder als Strohhut getragen. Stammt das Bild eher aus dem 20. Jahrhudert?

Ich sehe hier nichts von einem "feierlichen Anlass", sondern ganz einfach die im Bahnhof beschäftigten Personen, die sich zu einem Gruppenfoto zusammengefunden haben. --Voyager (talk) 20:45, 18 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
