The Trump inauguration and CNN's gigapixel photo

Hey there. I've been concerned about that gigapixel photo myself, and looked around the Internet for sources. I found this zoomed-out photo of Trump's inauguration, and fortunately it wasn't cloudy on Obama's inauguration in 2009, so I found this shot of that. (Identifying which building was which took a while, but see that small, round, green one on the right of Obama's inauguration?)

Looking at how the area is laid out, the those white buildings end a fair distance away from the Washington Monument. And in the gigapixel photo, the crowd ends before those white buildings. --Kizor 15:16, 23 January 2017 (UTC)

You are indeed right! Thank you for correcting this. 黄雨伞 (talk) 15:30, 23 January 2017 (UTC)

No prob. --Kizor 15:31, 23 January 2017 (UTC)

If you made this image yourself, you can use copyright tags like {{PD-self}} (to release all rights), {{self|CC-by-sa-3.0|GFDL}} (to require that you be credited), or any tag here - just go to the image, click edit, and add one of those. If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided copyright information for them as well.

Replaceable fair use File:Dennis-barden.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Dennis-barden.jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:

1. Go to the file description page and add the text {{di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}} below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing <your reason> with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
2. On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. MilborneOne (talk) 17:17, 13 February 2017 (UTC)

Hello, I'm David Eppstein. I noticed that you made an edit concerning content related to a living (or recently deceased) person on Dennis Barden, but you didn't support your changes with a citation to a reliable source, so I removed it. Wikipedia has a very strict policy concerning how we write about living people, so please help us keep such articles accurate and clear. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you! —David Eppstein (talk) 22:47, 13 January 2018 (UTC)

Alexander Tschugguel

I am aware of the Austrian laws, which was why it is included in a footnote after the part of the lede that states "in Austria he is known as Alexander Tschugguel", because in two of the sources from German articles he is referred to by his baronial title, which is allowed outside of Austria as courtesy. You will notice that the article for the man who you referenced as an example also does this (Karl von Habsburg). -- Willthacheerleader18 (talk) 20:31, 19 March 2020 (UTC)

Ok, I get your point! Sorry :-) --黄雨伞 (talk) 12:10, 21 March 2020 (UTC)

missing file

Up until a few days ago a file you uploaded to commons was used as a reference in the article List of countries by length of coastline, although the file was deleted in 2015 (log). I am wondering if you still have this file or know of another place it can be found. --Lasunncty (talk) 10:27, 10 February 2021 (UTC)

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Xiaomi, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Venkat TL (talk) 10:01, 24 November 2021 (UTC)

Hi @Venkat TL! I understand if XDA Developers does not count as a reliable source. Could you have a look at that article though? I think you will agree that the statement by the Lithuanian Ministery, as well as the section in Xiaomi as it is right now are quite misleading about what really happened (unless the author on XDA is a weird liar and fabricated their screenshots etc.…). However, I was not able to find any articles containing that same clarification on any major news website. It seems like they are interested in a story like "Lithuanian government suggests to throw away Xiaomi phones" much more than in the follow-up "Actually Xiaomi was just filtering ads on its own ad platform". Of course we cannot change the article without a reliable source, but we also shouldn't keep it as it is, which would give the reader a false impression. Maybe it is best to remove that paragraph altogether? 黄雨伞 (talk) 19:34, 25 November 2021 (UTC)

The response is more like a PR response to the expose. Wikipedia cannot publish it if the reliable sources find it unimpressive. Also, I do not believe XDA is independent. You can propose your edits on the article talk page and see what others think. At best it can go as a clarification of the claims. It would still need reliable source though. Venkat TL (talk) 06:40, 26 November 2021 (UTC)

Okay, thanks for the suggestion, I will write something on the talk page there! 黄雨伞 (talk) 08:20, 26 November 2021 (UTC)
