Hi. Do I blast you for your opinions? No. Did I oppose your images? No. So why the heavy reaction? Lycaon (talk) 00:41, 5 July 2009 (UTC)
- Opinions are fine when they have to do with the image itself or according to the normal terms of evaluation. But licensing terms? These have nothing to do with featured pictures. In addition, I have no problem if you have personal views on what licenses are good or bad, but when you try to push your agenda on the FP process, then yes, I have a problem with that because it affects others. When you choose to make a posting about it (rather than just silently abstaining) your only purpose can be to let everyone else know why you object. That's proselytizing, pure and simple, and it is that which I take strong offense. If you had a problem with my licensing, bring it up on my talk page where such discussion belongs.
- I make a big deal when people upload exactly 2MP images because I think they are just trying to play the system. But unlike your complaint with my licensing terms, the FP guidelines specifically state that we want the largest images possible, so I have a perfectly legitimate reason to complain about it. Others choose which principles they find most important and choose to ignore others. Its a subjective process. But I have a problem whenever someone brings outside negative comments (e.g. when someone opposed my image because of "too many well-done flower pictures").
- It is this simple: You didn't have to say anything, but you chose to say something. The only purpose can be to try to persuade others, otherwise what was the point? Whether your vote was support, neutral or oppose is immaterial. I really care most about your comment because I care more about the Wikimedia projects than I do about some silly star attached to an image. I try to get FPs mostly for fun.
- If there was a strong copyleft license practically identical to the GFDL but without the restrictive need to include a physical copy of the license, I'd happily license my images under those terms. However, I can't create my own personal license because it won't be acceptable here, so I use the one that is closest. I used to license all my works under the CC-by-sa, but I had issues with the weak copyleft in the license and problems with people using my images inappropriately, so I stopped using it in hopes that the future GFDL license would cure the various problems. The Creative Commons organization seems to encourage such behavior (and why shouldn't they, as they are just enforcing the terms of their license?).
- I've contributed more than a hundred thousands edits to the English Wikipedia and have uploaded well over a thousand pictures (and images) to Commons. The implication that I'm choosing a "restrictive" license intentionally so as not to be useful is something that I take offense. I strongly approve of the various Wikimedia projects, but I can't fail to defend my own copyright and the principles of copyleft.

Hello Ram-Man!
Thank you for providing images to Wikimedia Commons. Commons images are used by editors on many projects in many languages. Each image is put into categories. This helps other editors find them. Please add categories to each image you upload.
To add an image to a category, add the following code to the end of the page.
- [[Category:Category Name]]
For example, if you are uploading a diagram showing the orbit of comets, add the following to the image description page:
- [[Category:Astronomy diagrams]]
- [[Category:Comets]]
This will make the diagram show up in the categories: Astronomy diagrams, Comets.
For further information on categories read Commons:Categories.
The CommonSense Tool often helps you find the best category for your image.
Here is a gallery of your images. Please check that each image has a category. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the help desk. Thank you.

[edit] Nikon D5000 Lens
Hello Ram-man!! I would like some recommendations with you about lens to Nikon D-5000 machine... I bought about a month a Nikon D-5000 and am not a professional at all... I would like to take macro photos as you took but i´am not sure what kind of lens i need to make this...
I take a look of these ones :
- 17-70mm / F2.8-4.5 DC Macro Sigma
- 18-200mm / F3.5-6.3 DC Sigma
- 70-300mm / 4.0-5.6 DG Macro Sigma
What do you recommend?!
All the best, Light Warrior Conspiracy?!? 22:12, 2 December 2009 (UTC)
- While these can take macro shots, they usually only are macro to a 1:2 or 1:4 ratio (I didn't check). You probably want a fixed focal-length macro lens (e.g. 70mm or 105mm) that can do 1:1. Examples:
- Sigma 50mm f/2.8 EX DG Auto Focus Macro Lens (This is the cheapest macro lens option)
- Sigma 70mm f/2.8 EX DG Auto Focus Macro Lens (This is the lens that I use, and it is very sharp if done properly)
- Nikon 105mm f/2.8G ED-IF AF-S VR Micro-Nikkor (This is more expensive, but a popular macro lens)
- In general the longer the focal length the farther away you can be from the subject. The 50mm is cheap, but you have to get a few inches closer than the 70mm. This may or may not be a problem with certain insects. Of course other shots (like this one) are only possible because I did not use a 105mm lens. There was a limited distance between the flower and the ground such that I could put the sky in the picture and not the surrounding trees. -- Ram-Man 23:20, 2 December 2009 (UTC)

- Thanks very much for your help Ram-Man!! But in this small list, there any lens with this function?! PS: You have great photos!! Thank you!!
Light Warrior Conspiracy?!? 09:16, 6 December 2009 (UTC)

- My apologies, I forgot that the D5000 does not have a focusing motor and so the lens has to be internally focused. That does limit your options. -- Ram-Man 12:42, 6 December 2009 (UTC)
- Nikon 18-200mm VR: 1:4.5
- Nikon 55-200mm VR: 1:4.3
- Sigma 17-70mm: 1:2.3
- Sigma 70-200mm 2.8: 1:3.5
- etc...
- None of them are very good at macro because they are zooms. Most zooms are not good at macro. For your camera you want the Nikon 105mm macro lens or the Sigma 150mm Macro lens. I think it must have internal focusing. -- Ram-Man 12:56, 6 December 2009 (UTC)
- My apologies, I forgot that the D5000 does not have a focusing motor and so the lens has to be internally focused. That does limit your options. -- Ram-Man 12:42, 6 December 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Profile size and activity criterion for Commons:Meet our photographers
Dear member of Commons:Meet our photographers,
Two issues have recently been raised at Commons talk:Meet our photographers:
- Profile size creep
- The page is becoming increasing cluttered due to a tendency among some members to make personal profiles, which are unreasonably large. You are kindly requested to consider the size used by your profile and consider if it has a reasonable size. Note that the same message is being send to all members, so it is up to you to use your own good judgement in this. We are not interesting in setting up exact quantitatve rules. It should be a matter of common sense.
- Activity criterion
- It has been suggested to introduce an activity criterion in addition to the minimum 10 FPs criterion to be included on the list. You are kindly requested to voice your opinion on this proposal.

[edit] International Photoworkshop
Hello, motivated by the six Fotoworkshops of the German Wikipedia an international Photoworkshop in the Swedish Nyköping will be launched during the Easter Weekend 2010. Nyköping was chosen since Skavsta Airport is a Ryanair Base and very close to Stockholm. Further information can be found on Commons:Photoworkshop_Nyköping_2010. --Prolineserver (talk) 06:24, 5 March 2010 (UTC)
[edit] We need your help at the Wikiproject medicine
Hello, Sorry for spaming your talk page, but this is very important. On the behalf of the Wikiproject medicine at the en.wikipedia, I am inviting you to be a part of the discussion going on the project's talk page about Patient images, The discussion started after I obtained a permission to more than 23000 dermatology related images, and about 1500 radiology images. As some editors of the Wikiproject medicine have some concerns regarding the policy of using patient images on wikipedia, and regarding patient consents. Also they believe that common's policy is not so clear regarding the issue. And since you are the experts please join us at this very important discussion -- MaenK.A.Talk 14:23, 20 March 2010 (UTC)
