Welcome to Greece

Hi and welcome to Greece. logictheo 15:19, 7 June 2010 (UTC)

Hi

Bin gerade aus Kreta zurück und eher zufällig auf deine Seite geraten. Sehr schöne Logos, vor allem das OSM-Foundation eignet sich bestens für t-shirts. Darf man es schon benutzen?. Ich habe um Lentas und Mires einige Straßen und Orte gemappt, das war ein ziemliches Gerumpel auf den Pisten da unten. Es geht warscheinlich den meisten so wie mir, die griechiche Schrift ist schon schwer zu lesen. Könnte man nicht eine Diskussion unter griech. Mappern anstoßen, z.B die Ortsnamen auch in "normaler" Schrift auszuführen? Ich habe in Marocco und Algerien damit angefangen, schau's dir doch mal an.

Grüße, Andreas

Hi Dresl!

Danke für die Mail und Deine Meinung zu den Logos!

Das OSM-Foundation Logo ist noch nicht offiziell. Da muss noch mal irgendwann abgestimmt werden. Was die Namen in nicht-lateinischer Schrift angeht, check mal die Wiki-Seite:

http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Name#Localization

Ich bin der Meinung, man sollte eigentlich in dem name:-tag nur den Namen in der dort verwendeten Version und Schrift eintragen. Die anderen :Sprachen und Schriften dann in anderen tags, die dann später benutzt werden können, indem man die Sprache in der Ansicht wechselt. Dann ist das :System gleich auf alle erdenklichen Sprachen und Schriften übertragbar!

Leider kann man aber auf openstreetmap.org die Sprache NOCH nicht wechseln. Einige arbeiten aber, glaube ich, schon daran. Ich hoffe das kommt bald!!

Beste Grüße!

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:OSM Logo World Green.plain.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".

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)
