Women in Defense (1941)

edit

Hi there, Racconish. While trying to find a decent copy of Tanks, a 1942 documentary narrated by Orson Welles, I happened across a better version of a 1941 documentary narrated by Katharine Hepburn, Women in Defense. Could this be uploaded in place of the NARA file, or in addition to it?

And if you ever come across a copy of Tanks, I don't recall ever seeing it mentioned in any of the Welles books I have. Details here. Thanks. — WFinch (talk) 03:28, 3 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

File:The Unknown (1927) by Tod Browning.webm

edit

Before i could upload the George Eastman Museum reconstruction sourced from a YouTube upload, @Yann uploaded the full video file, featuring the opening Criterion/NFPF logos and introduction but without the music score (similar case with File:The Mystic (1925) by Tod Browning.webm).

As we previously discussed, you mentioned me that you believe "the introduction is copyrighted and should be cut out, regardless of any credits in the file description." --Mayimbú (talk) 05:31, 13 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

V2C

Hi, Did you see my messages on Commons talk:Video2commons#General failure (and my big report phab:T365154)? Have you had any issue with V2C during the last 2 weeks? Thanks, Yann (talk) 13:00, 25 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hello Yann, je n'ai pas utilisé récemment V2C et ne puis t'aider sur ce sujet. Je t'ai par ailleurs laisé un message sur la pdd de Jeff G. Cordialement, — Racconish💬 13:04, 25 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
En revanche, s'il y a des films de YT que tu veux que je téléverse, je suis à ta disposition. Cordialement, — Racconish💬 13:55, 25 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
OK, merci. Je veux bien que tu importes La Cigarette (1919), Foolish Wives (1922), The Three Musketeers (1921). Ces deux derniers sont très longs pour être importés via V2C de toute façon. Quels paramètres utilises-tu pour encoder ? Yann (talk) 14:24, 25 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
Ça dépend des formats disponibles sur YT. — Racconish💬 16:26, 25 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
Et pour MPEG4 ? Tu peux aussi importer What Happened to Jones (1926), et Love and Duty (1931) de Bu Wancang, un film chinois dans le domaine public en Chine et aux Etats-Unis. Yann (talk) 18:22, 25 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
J'ai importé des videos sur IA et YouTube. Sur YT, pour une raison inconnue, certaines ne sont disponibles qu'en 720p alors que je les ai importées en 1080p. Yann (talk) 14:38, 30 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

Encore deux demandes de suppression PD-Italy

Bonjour cher Racconish,

Comme déjà arrivé, un contributeur veut supprimer de Commons, deux photo prises en Italie avant 1996 que j'avais versé :

https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Deletion_requests/File:Berger-Gall-Italie-1984.png

Si tu veux bien m'aider à expliquer que le PD-Italy s'applique bien, y compris sur Commons ?

Bien à toi. ;) Tisourcier (talk) 08:23, 18 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hello cher Racconish,
Et désormais, le même contributeur s'attaque aux archives municipales de Toulouse, pourtant officiellement mises en domaine public...

Bonjour, Merci pour l'importation de ce film. Pourrais-tu me dire si importes d'autres films d'après mon compte IA, pour que je ne le fasse pas en double ? Cordialement, Yann (talk) 09:19, 20 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

Pas actuellement, non. Je fais attention à ces aspects et si tu veilles à catégoriser les films, il ne devrait pas y avoir de problème. Cordialement, — Racconish💬 09:45, 20 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

1080p versions of old films

edit

Hi, I don't know if you follow that page, so FYI: Commons:Graphic Lab/Video and sound workshop#Import 1080p versions. Thanks, Yann (talk) 11:25, 30 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

On the same subject, regarding the discussion archived to User talk:Jeff G./Archives/2024/July#1080p versions of old films, please don't think that I have forgotten about attempting to fix the issue for you and Yann. The latest research is documented off-wiki at https://github.com/toolforge/video2commons/issues/210 (I am still getting 153 errors for Dixiana and two silent versions).   — 🇺🇦Jeff G. please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 13:00, 16 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

File:Popeye the Sailor Meets Sindbad the Sailor.webm

edit

On June 2020, @Koavf overwrote your file with an HD version sourced from the Library of Congress page. Despite it's superior quality, that version has missing several seconds of footage from the original upload for which the incomplete english subtitles are out of sync (no the case with the, still unfinished, French and Croatian subtitles which correspond to the current upload).

I suggest to revert the current upload to the original file (or an Higher Quality version of the same file if possible), upload the LOC version as a separate file, request a completion for the English subtitles and move the unfinished French and Croatian subtitles to the new file.--Mayimbú (talk) 19:25, 2 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

I think this is the correct solution as well. Do you need me to do it? —Justin (koavf)TCM 21:33, 2 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
I will upload the IA version on top of the current one. Justin please revert yours (and the related subtitles) and upload it separately. Thanks, — Racconish💬 06:47, 3 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

Bonjour Racconish,
Il recommence ! Bien que lors des débats, aucun motif réel et sérieux n'a été établi de leur part, ils décident de lancer une suppression de masse de toutes les photos Studio Harcourt. Cela relève désormais de la désorganisation et d'une démarche particulièrement destructrice. Nous avons pourtant fourni les données, références et éléments démontrant que ces fichiers sont réellement libres de droits. Merci de ton aide. Tisourcier (talk) 10:48, 21 October 2024 (UTC)Reply
