Possible FPCs[edit]

Experimenting with a permanent section on my talk page. I've opened sections at COM:CRIT in the past, but I'm uncomfortable posting there too often and/or taking up a lot of space there. So here are images I'm considering (as is or after edit) for featured picture candidates. I plan to add/remove from this section semi-regularly. If you think one is a particularly good or bad idea, or if you have thoughts about potential edits, please let me know below!

Comments[edit]

  • Thanks. Only reason I didn't nominate the Oculus before is that just after I went there, someone else submitted a picture of the same place to FPC. Figured I'd wait. Probably waited long enough now, though. :) — Rhododendrites talk |  22:15, 10 July 2019 (UTC)
  • My search for material to nominate at FPC has led me here :). I really like the cemetery with the cherry blossoms but I don't know if the FP crowd will think it has enough 'wow'. I think it's probably a 50-50 thing but I might nominate it and see how it does. I think the ones that are likeliest are to pass FPC are these three bird pics and I'd vote for any of them, but the best for me is the kestrel because it's so colourful. The other one I like is this, I know you already have an FP of this museum but this one is a bit different. Cmao20 (talk) 14:36, 23 January 2020 (UTC)
  • Thanks, Cmao20. I appreciate the feedback. I do like the cemetery shot -- it's been in my "potential" [FP/QI/VI] category and in this section for a long time. My concern is less about "wow" than about wanting bit more sharpness?
  • I almost nominated the hummingbird before, but something about the image seemed lacking. It was an unusual gray sky that day, which I really liked while I was there but didn't turn out as well in the photo. Still, it seems a bit better than other images we have of that species. The goose is clear, gives a good view of its natural sneer, and was out of its natural habitat in Harlem Meer.</rhyme> I just expect some "distracting background" or "no wow" comments. The kestrel may work, but I'd want to do another pass at editing to do some selective denoising. — Rhododendrites talk |  15:34, 23 January 2020 (UTC)
  • The cemetery shot looks sharp enough to me, I wouldn't worry about that - it's less sharp at the corners than the centre but that's obviously normal, and the sharpness is good overall. One thing I would correct though, having a second look is that there is some blue CA on the branches at the top right. You may be right about the goose, but I think it probably stands a good chance anyway. You have my support if you choose to nominate any of these, anyway; I think I shall nominate the hummingbird myself if that's OK. Cmao20 (talk) 18:16, 23 January 2020 (UTC)
  • @Cmao20: It looks like my lightroom catalog with those modifications got lost, so I redid it and did some additional work on the CA (there was also some green CA visible along the edges of some gravestones). Uploaded. I've generally no objection to nominating anything unless it's something I want to edit first (most of the time I only upload things after editing, though). Thanks! — Rhododendrites talk |  23:29, 23 January 2020 (UTC)

QI noms[edit]

Hey! I love your recent uploads from Boston. Looks like you covered a lot of ground, like me. I'm no photographer, but I still use my point and shoot camera to document the places I've been. I don't want to step on toes, but if you'd like help nominating images for QI status, I'm happy to throw more of your photographs into the pipeline. If you prefer nominating on your own, that's also fine, just offering to help! Happy editing! -Another Believer (talk) 01:50, 22 November 2019 (UTC)

@Another Believer: Thanks! I certainly wouldn't feel like my toes are stepped on if you nominated some for QI, but mine will eventually all get up there, so if you're looking for things to nominate I'd probably encourage you to look at users whose uploads wouldn't eventually be nominated anyway (there aren't enough users active at QIC who nominate other people's work). I think that the photo contests can be good to mine for QIs/FPs/VIs, like the monthly contests, Wiki Loves Monuments, etc. Another one is Wiki Loves Pride 2019, which I've abstained from looking through so far because I'll be on the jury when the judging gets started in the next few weeks.
Anyway, this is all to say it's entirely up to you. :)
What was your favorite place you got to in Boston? Been there before?
I lived there a while back, but never really did the touristy stuff, so I decided to stay several days after the conference to do the Freedom Trail, do some exploring, etc. Probably spent the most time at the Granary Burying Ground, Bunker Hill Monument (because I felt like I had to make it worth it after getting all the way there and climbing up to the top), and the Seaport, which I went to because it's in a strange stage of hyperdevelopment that was more or less empty when I lived there. — Rhododendrites talk |  02:26, 22 November 2019 (UTC)
OK, good to know I wouldn't be stepping on toes, but I'm leaving for Tokyo/Kyoto in a couple days, so not sure I'll be able to nominate images before you beat me to the punch. You clearly stay on top of noms, so perhaps I'll just continue to admire from afar. In Boston, I enjoyed strolling along the Charles River Esplanade and Commonwealth Avenue, and throughout Beacon Hill. I also liked the Charlestown neighborhood, and of course the Boston Common and Public Garden were wonderful. My photographs are not worth viewing in detail, but my Boston gallery and Cambridge gallery show how much ground I covered. Now for categorizing images...! (BTW, thanks for helping out with the Wiki Loves Pride jury; my work for the campaign is mostly at English Wikipedia, but I'm thankful there's a Commons component as well.) -Another Believer (talk) 02:43, 22 November 2019 (UTC)
Oooh have fun in Japan! I've had plans to go a couple times but still haven't made it over there.
The Esplanade and Comm Ave are nice walks. Better when it's nice out, of course. Going to Bunker Hill was my first time in Charlestown. Several areas of Boston just eluded me when I lived there (East Boston, too). Most I've seen of Charlestown was in The Town. I see you got to one of the places I didn't get to on my list of places-I-didn't-go-when-I-lived-there-because-they-were-"touristy"-but-now-regret-and-want-to-go-back: Mike's Pastry. :) — Rhododendrites talk |  20:16, 24 November 2019 (UTC)
Yes! I couldn't help but step into Mike's Pastry when I noticed the waiting crowd. I had a great time in Japan -- I'll be uploading my photographs from Tokyo and Kyoto soon. So many images to categorize, I have my work cut out for me! -Another Believer (talk) 15:33, 6 December 2019 (UTC)

Category:Featured pictures by Rhododendrites‎[edit]

I'm going through the FP user categories and finding some contain Wikipedia FPs or WikiVoyage crops, etc. I've moved some of your images out into a new category for Wikipedia FPs. I guess you probably have more than just the ones I moved, which you might want to add to the WP FP category. The Commons User FP categories are used by the Category:Featured pictures by creator page and are only for Commons FP. -- Colin (talk) 19:04, 4 December 2019 (UTC)

@Colin: I wasn't aware there was a requirement that user categories for FPs could only include Commons FPs. I had a note at the top to clarify it had both. My motivation is primarily to avoid having two user categories for a file where one would do. I'm a little self-conscious of my relatively elaborate usercat system, so try to minimize the number any one file has. This would mean that those featured on enwiki and FP would be in both. I don't have strong feelings about it, though, I suppose. It does put me in the wrong spot in the list of FPs by creator to include enwiki files, too... — Rhododendrites talk |  20:13, 4 December 2019 (UTC)
The list on Category:Featured pictures by creator uses a template that only scans the top level of whatever category you supply it. So if you want it to correctly count the number of Commons FPs, then all and only your Commons FPs need to directly be in that category. Some folk create sub-categories (by country, year, whatever), and duplicate their photos there. Some folk have put their Wikipedia category inside their Commons one, which doesn't break the template counter, but is a little confusing since they aren't really "Featured pictures" in terms of Commons categorisation. Some folk have separate Wikipedia categories which then have their own "FP on Wikipedias" parent. I used to participate on en:wp FP but the participation of photographers dropped off, over to Commons, and it wasn't so engaging. The standards on most other Wikipedias don't seem very high. -- Colin (talk) 20:32, 4 December 2019 (UTC)
Of course, if we had a proper tagging system, rather than a broken category system borrowed from Wikipedia, we'd have "Featured picture on Commons" and "Photograph by Rhododendrites" tags and could JOIN them like any decent database. -- Colin (talk) 20:34, 4 December 2019 (UTC)

Plagiarism of your work?[edit]

Hi Rhododendrites, This Flickr photo https://www.flickr.com/photos/183318886@N04/49101171933/ looks suspiciously similar to your photo https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Hudson_Yards_from_Hudson_Commons_(95131p).jpg. —Percival Kestreltail (talk) 17:46, 5 December 2019 (UTC)

@Kestreltail: Thanks for the heads up. Yes, it is certainly some straightforward infringement there. Filed a report on Flickr. — Rhododendrites talk |  18:37, 5 December 2019 (UTC)
A quick glance at the user's other files found another of mine (and thus it's probably all copyrighted work). Sigh... — Rhododendrites talk |  18:48, 5 December 2019 (UTC)
  • I know that Flickr user on another online community. He told me that he's a photography student, and for a while we all believed that he really did travel to a bunch of the world's tallest buildings and take one or two pictures. I was always suspicious, but I was only convinced when I saw your photo there. —Percival Kestreltail (talk) 17:42, 6 December 2019 (UTC)
  • @Kestreltail: I notice you said something about posting the image to an architecture forum. By chance, did you (or someone else) also post this one? Just wondering if the person is just pulling images from that forum. The first image you linked above is sensible because it's the infobox image on the enwiki page for Hudson Yards, but the other one isn't even used in an article. Or maybe just using FastCCI on Commons... — Rhododendrites talk |  19:25, 6 December 2019 (UTC)
  • Nope, I've never seen that photo before. I don't think he's getting his images from the forum, since he posted photos of some very remote sites (Russia, Saudi Arabia, etc.) that we would not otherwise have had pictures of. He is also a Commons user, by the way, and his photos on here seem to be more reflective of his actual photography skills (iPhone 5s!). If it is necessary, I could provide his username, but I was hoping I wouldn't have to tattle on an online "friend". —Percival Kestreltail (talk) 01:30, 7 December 2019 (UTC)
