Template usage

Buongiorno Zandev, can you accept advices? First, thank you for uploading fine images / SVG drawings. When I came accidently to Limit sin x x relabeled.svg I saw that something could be recommnded:

1. For |source= the template Own based is better suited than Attrib which is more to be used for additional attributions, not for the "main" base.
2. For |permission= only licenses should be given. When a license is specified below of =={{int:license-header}}== this field should remain empty – or removed totally, but never get comments like 'see below'.
3. When there is any need to specify more than one user, at e.g. author= or by= or editor= or Based or Attrib or AutVec etc., the template Userlist (short: Ul) can be used, which internationalizes the final 'and'.
4. But when the 'original' user is mentioned in Based it need not to be repeated at author=, in this case it is enough to specify only the author of the "derivate" file.

The first three changes are made at Limit sin x x relabeled.svg. My best wishes for continuous successful work in wikimedia ! -- sarang♥사랑 10:33, 30 November 2022 (UTC)

Village flag of Epse, Netherlands

Farm in Epse

Sir, Could you please vectorize this village flag. The flag is flying at the farm. Please make it svg and upload it to the following thumbmail. Alexphangia Talk 15:05, 4 October 2023 (UTC)

@Alexphangia: I'll try but I will need additional informations:

• For the blue castle I would put the one inside File:Gorssel vlag.svg that seems to me enough similar, but maybe there are even more similar castles. This would be OK?
• I would need the flag proportion (if unknown I'll use 2/3)
• I don't know how to replicate the "EPSE" text as it is in the raster image. If you find anything more somewhere about it (the font, already vectorialized version) this could be very useful

Okay. Alexphangia Talk 15:32, 4 October 2023 (UTC)

@Alexphangia: I found a raster version for now, I'll upload it here: File:Epse vlag.jpg. With it I'll try to vectorize also the text. ... ZandDev (talk) 15:45, 4 October 2023 (UTC)

okay Alexphangia Talk 15:47, 4 October 2023 (UTC)

@Alexphangia: I don't know the Dutch legislations. Is the flag copyright-free, or assimilable as municipality flags, tagged with {{PD-NL-gemeentevlag}}? ZandDev (talk) 15:57, 4 October 2023 (UTC)

Yes, it is used to be public domain for all Dutch local flags. Alexphangia Talk 15:58, 4 October 2023 (UTC)

Okay, let's upload. ZandDev (talk) 15:59, 4 October 2023 (UTC)

Autopatrol given

Hello. I just wanted to let you know that I have granted autopatrol rights to your account; the reason for this is that I believe you are sufficiently trustworthy and experienced to have your contributions automatically marked as "reviewed". This has no effect on your editing, it is simply intended to make it easier for users that are monitoring Recent changes or Recent uploads to find unproductive edits amidst the productive ones like yours. In addition, the Flickr upload feature and an increased number of batch-uploads in UploadWizard, uploading of freely licensed MP3 files, overwriting files uploaded by others and an increased limit for page renames per minute are now available to you. Thank you. Abzeronow (talk) 15:51, 23 November 2023 (UTC)
