I transferred ] to Commons, but then I discovered that the first revision has the edit summary {{tq|Smaller version}}, so there should be another version of that file too. After I tagged with {{tl|Now Commons}}, another user moved (!) the local file, although not to the name on Commons, so the file revisions may have been split between the old and the new file name. --] (]) 20:49, 12 January 2025 (UTC)

:It was literally an exact duplicate as the one on Commons.

What happened is I asked about this file at WP:CQ. The other editor confirmed that it was public domain. I then uploaded it at WP. After my upload, the other editor uploaded it at commons. As it is a historical file, I'm hoping to nom it for FP. The full history would be beneficial. Thanks, &ndash; ] <sup>(])</sup> 22:49, 24 June 2012 (UTC)

Hi Magog, I'm not quite sure why you made those changes at ]. Did the OTRS turn out to be invalid? In that case, I really don't see how this can be used under NFC. As an illustration of those swords it is obviously replaceable. It may of course well be PD-old, but unfortunately the uploader has so far failed to clarify its original provenance. ] ] 05:34, 18 June 2012 (UTC)

Hmm, no surprise, the uploader's explanations on wiki were a bit of a mess too. But I've now found some indications that it may be PD-old after all (see the FFD), so maybe this will soon be moot. ] ] 22:10, 18 June 2012 (UTC)

. So the stalking will continue and I'll be told by admins to edit some of the billions of other articles that the wiki has without knowing that I did that and was followed there.

Yes, I'm sure... this is an obscure article but I've also asked for a CU (it wont attach it to a user but an undisclosed action might be possible).

== Now Commons tagging ==

Hi! My bot have been tagging files with Now Commons for some time now but now it is finally done. Files that was marked as non free on en-wiki on the time I made the list was skipped and I also skipped some other categories that might mark to many files that is not ok for Commons. Sadly many bad transfers have been made making it hard just to press the delete button. I'll help check/fix the files soon so you do not have to do them all. --] (]) 12:28, 25 June 2012 (UTC)
:While I have you hear, I will let you know about these bot errors: . ] (]) 22:00, 26 June 2012 (UTC)

Thank you for the bad news :-D It is hard to avoid errors in the migration-mess and I noticed that . It is not wrong but the "|migration=relicense|migration=relicense|migration=review" does not look nice...

So far I have only seen my bot make a few errors and they all relates to files that end up in ]. So the problem should be limited.

The best would probably be to fix CommonsHelper so it makes less mess in the first place. But it would also be good to have a bot cleanup automatically (your cleanup and my cleanup).

Do you have a list of "errors" that CH makes? Last time I asked Magnus to fix CH it was done within a few hours. So I suggest we try that. --] (]) 10:24, 27 June 2012 (UTC)
:Are you kidding me? I've made multiple requests and Magnus has ignored all of them, even the disgustingly simple ones. Yes, I have a list the length of my arm. ] (]) 10:28, 27 June 2012 (UTC)
Hm... Perhaps my request was very easy since it was done so soon... If you put the list somewhere I can look at it and we can start with the easy fixes. --] (]) 19:25, 27 June 2012 (UTC)
:Do you want them by IRC, by email, what? ] (]) 03:54, 28 June 2012 (UTC)

Old revisions of files

Hi!

Based on the history of the file information page, File:Odalisque with Arms Raised.jpg and File:Matisse-The-Dessert-Harmony-in-Red-Henri-1908-fast.jpg should have one more old revision each on Misplaced Pages which was not transferred to Commons. Could you transfer them?

I transferred File:RKR wiki pic.jpg to Commons, but then I discovered that the first revision has the edit summary Smaller version, so there should be another version of that file too. After I tagged with {{Now Commons}}, another user moved (!) the local file, although not to the name on Commons, so the file revisions may have been split between the old and the new file name. --Stefan2 (talk) 20:49, 12 January 2025 (UTC)

@Stefan2: the first file has no hidden revisions. I've handled the latter two. Magog the Ogre (tc) 23:17, 12 January 2025 (UTC)

File:KlausB RMPics.JPG

Hi! I found a copy of this file in sw.wikipedia (sw:Faili:Klaus Barbie.jpg). I wonder if there is any information that can justify that it is PD now? MGA73 (talk) 21:12, 12 January 2025 (UTC)

@MGA73: The image is also hosted on several other wikis:
The deleted file had an incorrect license, a direct URL (link), and almost certainly the wrong author.
I did a deep dive on the original source and the best I could find was this Getty Images which appears to provide the wrong attribution. The image is reused by reputable sources such as the Canadian Holocaust Museum.
At this point, I'm afraid I've run out of leads. Magog the Ogre (tc) 23:04, 12 January 2025 (UTC)
