Wikidata[edit]
You mentioned concerns with Wikidata in earlier exchanges re IATA/ICAO codes. Below is a copy of recent exchanges I have had re Wikidata (sorry about the bulk, but wasn't sure how to link you to it): — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ardfern (talk • contribs) 2020-02-01 01:57:20 (UTC) (…)
- You mean you cannot do this?!:
[[User_talk:EncycloPetey#Arthur_Woollgar_Verrall]]. Good grief! -- Tuválkin ✉ ✇ 02:01, 1 February 2020 (UTC) - @Ardfern: Thanks for the heads up, anyway. Of course, Wikidata is a menace to the projects as we know them, but then again, we’ve known it for a few years now. Of course the Siberian and Canadian permafrosts might start outgassing methane soon, and that will be what destroys Wikipedia, Wikitionary, and Commons — not Wikidata. Either way, we’re doomed and we know it. -- Tuválkin ✉ ✇ 02:06, 1 February 2020 (UTC)
- Sorry about the lack of knowledge re adding link, but I try at all costs not to get involved in discussions if avoidable, hence lack of experience. Too much other work to do Ardfern (talk) 02:11, 1 February 2020 (UTC)
Non-empty "empty" category speedy[edit]
Hello Tuvalkin! You have speedy'd Category:António José (given name) with the comment "no such thing: empty" while the category has 6 subcategories and lot of entries. Either make it really empty (this probably involved a frather large category reorganisation and lot of work) or explain why do you think it's a speedy delete entree. It looks like a mistake. Thank you! --grin ✎ 08:09, 11 February 2020 (UTC)
- It doesn’t show as empty because of lag between Commons and Wikidata. You can see that all those subcats call up Category:António José (given name) via the {{Wikidata Infobox}} template, while the remote WD items they link to were already corrected from coumpound given name to pair of given names. -- Tuválkin ✉ ✇ 23:26, 11 February 2020 (UTC)
BondeCCFL235.1968.AvLib×RAlexH[edit]
Hi. Why reverted my edit? Land vehicles photographed in 1968 pass to Trams in 1968 or not? - - Globetrotter19 (talk) 10:08, 7 March 2020 (UTC)
- I reverted your COM:OVERCAT (Trams in 1968, or rather 1968 in tram transport, is already a parent of Lisbon trams in 1968) and your unexplained removal of {{Taken in}}. -- Tuválkin ✉ ✇ 10:12, 7 March 2020 (UTC)
- My guess I explained. It will be OVERCAT bcause Taken in means in these case only category:1968 photographs that is a subcat of the category:Land vehicles photographed in 1968 the second is a subcategory of the first. - - Globetrotter19 (talk) 10:18, 7 March 2020 (UTC)
- {{Taken in}} is a template that is correctly applied to that file and therefore should not be removed. The matter that its transcludes categories that may be seen as COM:OVERCAT should be addressed elsewhere. Freel free however to add Category:Land vehicles photographed in 1968 to this photo and countless others, as neither Category:1968 in tram transport nor Category:Lisbon trams in 1968 are specific for photos. -- Tuválkin ✉ ✇ 10:24, 7 March 2020 (UTC)
- In that case all Category:Lisbon trams in 1968 should be use {{Taken in}} or not? - -
- Yes all photos categorized as Category:Lisbon trams in 1968 should ideally be tagged with
{{taken in|1968}}, or with a more specific date, when known. -- Tuválkin ✉ ✇ 10:42, 7 March 2020 (UTC)
- Okay if I create a category:1968 photographs of Portugal for these using {{Taken in}}? - - Globetrotter19 (talk) 10:53, 7 March 2020 (UTC)
-
- Done! - - Globetrotter19 (talk) 11:27, 7 March 2020 (UTC)

Sobre A Coruña[edit]
Moi boas Tuvalkin. Sobre o tema que me comentas a miña acción só de debe para corrixir un nome que claramente estaba mal e para unificar os criterios de categorización. Certo é que cada un terá as súas preferencias e cada un na súa vida pode usar o nome que prefira, pero neste caso en concreto o topónimo oficial é A Coruña, e todas as categorías relacionadas coa cidade ou a provincia en Commons levan esa forma, polo que entendo que non tería sentido ningún categorizar co nome que a cada un lle apeteza. Non sería nin correcto nin útil. E por último creo que non creei ningunha polémica ao facer ese cambio, nin tiña intención de facela, e coido que o non deberías dicir tan á lixeira que estou aquí para crear polémica e non para traballar no proxecto porque é algo falso e de feito é a primeira vez que mo din nos máis de 10 anos que levo por aquí. Un saúdo. --Beninho (talk) 14:44, 11 March 2020 (UTC)
