Currently I'm trying to focus on editing a hand full of Wikipedia articles. currently two articles I'm focusing on are the Social-Democratic Party of Wisconsin, and Tavern League of Wisconsin. My question is, do you have experience uploading images to Wikipedia? If so is it possible you could upload some images for me? Zyxrq (talk) 20:39, 9 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

specifically I'm only asking for two. Zyxrq (talk) 22:06, 9 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

yeah definitely. send the source links and i'll upload them as soonas i can PequodOnStationAtLZ (talk) 20:46, 11 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I've noticed that we edit and add to the same types of articles related to California. Thanks for your hard work and dedication to editing Wikipedia!... especially for making my articles better lol. - NewishIdeas

I was thrilled to see your wiki page on the 2003 SF DA Election and that you chose 2 of my wikimedia photos (Hallinan and Fazio). This was my intention when I made the photos 20-25 years ago: that the photos be used for information when needed. The photos I want to see are straight representation: a face with two eyes, a nose and a mouth with one or two ears showing. It seems to me that the award-winning newspaper photographers all want to shoot esoteric photos with a 'decisive moment' which sometimes don't include a face that you can identify. In 2003, Kamala Harris handed out a professional photo of herself to the mass media ( with catch lights in the eyes and perfect makeup), while Terrence Hallinan and Bill Fazio, her opponents in the DA race had few photos. White men need representation, too. Edmunddantes (talk) 23:00, 12 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you so much for leaving that message, Nancy. It made my day. As someone with a deep love for politics and the city of San Francisco, I'm deeply jealous of the fact you've gotten to photograph all these people over the years. One of the main reasons I made an account on here was because of how important it is, I think, to put faces to names. There were and still are so many fascinating people this site has profiled that don't have pictures, and every time I get to fix that it makes me feel like I'm doing something that matters. To me, a good picture tells just as much as a good biography. PequodOnStationAtLZ (talk) 03:10, 13 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

An article you recently created,

Yeah, that page was meant as a redirect to a California State Legislature page, but it was missing a parenthesis so a new article had to be made. That one can be deleted. PequodOnStationAtLZ (talk) 23:24, 25 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You are invited to participate in the here !

Hello Pequod,

I thought you might be interested in joining since you're interested in history and biographies. You can add all of the biographies and US events you created to the project if you'd like. There are also specific state subgroups. I added the tags used to the William F. White talk page, and you can add them to the previous pages you created as well.

Let me know if you have any questions. Bpuddin (talk) 04:20, 7 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, that sounds awesome! Went ahead and added myself to the page. Thanks for clueing me in! PequodOnStationAtLZ (talk) 17:14, 7 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, PequodOnStationAtLZ,

Do not change redirects to point to non-existent pages. If you do that, they will be deleted as broken redirects which would be a mistake. If you alter a redirect, please ensure that it points to an existing target article. Thank you. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 02:39, 30 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your contributions to Paul Lange (German politician). Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because it needs more sources to establish notability. I have converted your article to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.

I really commend you for your work on obtaining high-quality portraits for early Soviet and other historical figures. You have a good eye for encyclopedic choices. Could you review the images used on the article for Grigory Zinoviev and edit accordingly? I feel that the infobox image in particular could use replacement. — Goszei (talk) 06:36, 21 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Nikolai Bukharin is another potential target for image improvement, in my eyes. — Goszei (talk) 06:49, 21 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you so much! It always makes my day to know people notice my work. I took a look at Zinoviev and Bukharin and here's what I found:

For Zinoviev, I honestly don't hate his current picture that much. There really aren't very many good pictures of him floating around, so at least this one is a proper high-resolution portrait. I was able to find this portrait ( File:G. Zinoviev, President of the Petrograd Soviet Alt Edit.jpg ) but it's about the same quality and lower resolution. I'd personally be partial to just reverting the current infobox picture to its non-cropped version ( File:Grigorii Zinovieff 1920.jpg ).

Bukharin was much easier. There are dozens of variations of that famous picture of him with the worker's cap and leather jacket, and before long I found this high-resolution version ( File:N.I. Bukharin (1888-1938).jpg ) which I then cropped down a bit for the infobox. I also found one of his Okhrana mugshots! ( File:Bukharin, Nikolai Ivanovich 1909–1911.jpg )

I hope I was able to be of some help. If you have any other articles you'd like me to take a look at, don't hesitate to drop me a line. PequodOnStationAtLZ (talk) 18:49, 21 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your attention. I am somewhat partial to File:G. Zinoviev, President of the Petrograd Soviet Edit.jpg, and love the work you've done on Bukharin's article. — Goszei (talk) 18:54, 21 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I uploaded a new portrait at File:Grigory Zinoviev circa 1920.jpg, which I think is even more suitable for the infobox. Not sure if the licensing/source information is acceptable, could use a double check. — Goszei (talk) 23:08, 21 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Oh wow nice find! Yeah that's much better. Should be good as far as licensing is concerned. PequodOnStationAtLZ (talk) 23:22, 21 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not use styles that are nonstandard, unusual, inappropriate or difficult to understand in articles, as you did in David Dubinsky. There is a Manual of Style, and edits should not deliberately go against it without special reason. Please stop violating the image policy. This was discussed with you on the article talk page.

Hello. I have noticed that you often edit without using an edit summary. Please do your best to always fill in the summary field. This helps your fellow editors use their time more productively, rather than spending it unnecessarily scrutinizing and verifying your work. Even a short summary is better than no summary, and summaries are particularly important for large, complex, or potentially controversial edits. To help yourself remember, you may wish to check the "prompt me when entering a blank edit summary" box in your preferences. Thanks! FarmerUpbeat (talk) 00:40, 12 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

When you translate articles, like you did with Gerhart Seger, please attribute your translations in the edit summary. Otherwise it is a copyright violation. I fixed it for you but going forward. PARAKANYAA (talk) 23:04, 26 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
