Requesting review[edit]

Hi, would someone be able to review the license on this file? The video is up for featured review and I know it might otherwise be a while, given the backlog. Thank you, czar 21:22, 20 December 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Requestin review or advice[edit]

In Finland there were parliamentary elections in April and we are currently in transition period. After transition the most likely images of old goverment's ministers will be replaced with images of new images. Because this I uploaded the CC-licenced files from https://kuvapankki.valtioneuvosto.fi/?l=EN to commons (see. Category:Images_from_the_image_bank_of_the_Prime_Minister's_Office,_Finland, subdirs are uploaded by me). Currently, and 247 photos with license review pending and total number of CC-licensed photos is 436 (~150 photos are not yet uploaded)

However, the next question what would be the best way to get them license reviewed before photos are going away. I have tried to think some possibilities. It is possivle to review images at one category at time ( 1 commons category = 1 album in mediapankki.valtioneuvosto.fi ) I have also added kuvapankki filenames in commons image name inside parenthesis to make sorting/matching them easier. Note. First time when link is opened user needs to click "Public content" button to login first, after that the direct links to the albums will work.

Second idea was to was to create a python script which loops the images and shows both commons and source files licence information and link to the article. Main problem with this is that there is no link the source image description page so user needs to trust to the script.

Just to document that this is resolved and images are reviewed. --Zache (talk) 06:50, 21 May 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
