Kontakt und Frage zu Detaillierungsrad der Statusangaben

Hallo Michael, ich bin jetzt seit 1/4 Jahr auch bei OSM v.a. im Raum Alfdorf - Gmünd aktiv. Auf der Gmünder Seite hast Du für die Statusangaben nur 4 Symbole verwendet. In der Erklärung verwendest Du das OSM-Template mit dem "vollen" Symbole-Katalog für Städte/Gemeinden. Gibt es einen speziellen Grund, daß Du

a) nur 4 Symbole verwendet hast statt ?

b) für

[[Image:State_Labelled2.png]] [[Image:State_Car2.png]] [[Image:State_Bike1.png]] [[Image:State_Foot1.png]]

und nicht

{{State Place|l=2|c=2|b=1|fo=1|tr=X|p=X|fu=X|r=X|t=X|n=X|h=X}}

verwendet hast?

Als ich die Statusseite erstellt habe, gab es diese Symbole noch nicht. Inzwischen werden die Seiten im Wiki nicht mehr so richtig gepflegt und ich bin mir nicht sicher wie sinnvoll die noch sind. Vor Dir hat auch nie jemand was an den Gmünd-Seiten geändert.

Zusammenführen von Relationen bei gleichen Wanderwegen

Hallo Michel gd,

ich habe festgestellt, daß es an verschiedenen Stellen verschiedene Wanderwege-Relationen gibt, die meinem Verständnis nach zum gleichen Wanderweg gehören und direkt aneinander anschließen. Schau Dir mal die Relationen 315353 315353 und 317639 317639 an (rotes Kreuz, Stuifen). Gibt es einen bestimmten Grund, weshalb Du dafür 2 Relationen angelegt hast oder ist das eher aus Versehen passiert? Hast Du etwas dagegen, wenn ich solche Relationen zusammenführe? Gruß, --Rennhenn 21:29, 30 October 2012 (UTC)

Das muss ein Versehen gewesen sein. Du kannst die Relationen gerne zusammenführen. Gruß, --Michael gd 22:43, 30 October 2012 (UTC)

Missing file information

Hello! And thanks for your upload - but some extra info is necessary.

Sorry for bothering you about this, but it is important to know source of the uploaded files.

Are you the author of image File:Schwaebisch gmuend.png ?

Or is it copied from some other place (which one?)?

Please, add this info to the file page - something like "I took this photo" or "downloaded from -website link-" or "I took this screeshot of program XYZ" or "this is map generated from OpenStreetMap data and SRTM data" or "map generated from OSM data and only OSM data".

Doing this would be already very useful.

Licensing - photos

In case that you are the author of the image: Would you agree to open licensing of this image, allowing its use by anyone (similarly to your OSM edits)?

In case where it is a photo you (except relatively rare cases) author can make it available under a specific free license.

Would you be OK with CC0 (it allows use without attribution or any other requirement)?

Or do you prefer to require attribution and some other things using CC-BY-SA-4.0?

If you are the author: Please add {{CC0-self}} to the file page to publish the image under CC0 license.

You can also use {{CC-BY-SA-4.0-self}} to publish under CC-BY-SA-4.0 license.

Once you add missing data - please remove {{Unknown|subcategory=uploader notified March 2022}} from the file page.

Licensing - other images

If it is not a photo situation gets a bit more complicated.

See Drafts/Media file license chart that may help.

note: if you took screenshot of program made by someone else, screenshot of OSM editor with aerial imagery: then licensing of that elements also matter and you are not a sole author.

note: If you downloaded image made by someone else then you are NOT the author.

Note that in cases where photo is a screenshot of some software interface: usually it is needed to handle also copyright of software itself.

Note that in cases where aerial imagery is present: also licensing of an aerial imagery matter.

Help

Feel free to ask for help if you need it - you can do it for example by asking on Talk:Wiki: new topic.

Please ask there if you are not sure what is the proper next step. Especially when you are uploading files that are not your own work or are derivative work (screenshots, composition of images, using aerial imagery etc).

If you are interested in wider discussion about handling licencing at OSM Wiki, see this thread.

(sorry if I missed something that already states license and source: I am looking through over 20 000 files and fixing obvious cases on my own, in other I ask people who upladed files, but it is possible that I missed something - in such case also please answer)
