William James (bishop) and the image File:The counties of England, their story and antiquities (1912) (14578208158).jpg

Hello Jeff, long time no wikisee I was wondering if you would know whom to reach out for to found out how to make an image of both the portrait and the description of the signature under the portrait from William James, Bishop of Durham, 1606-1617. Thank you so much for your time. Lotje (talk) 11:28, 30 November 2025 (UTC)

@Lotje: Hi, again. I suggest that you post a new section at the bottom of Commons:Graphic Lab/Photography workshop. If you can read or otherwise determine the signature or the identity of the painter, that can inform your request.   — 🇺🇦Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 16:03, 30 November 2025 (UTC)

 Done Thank you so much for your help Jeff. Hope I explained it correctly. Cheers. Lotje (talk) 16:18, 30 November 2025 (UTC)

@Lotje: You're welcome. Please see Special:Diff/1123443227/1123447681. Was it really attributed to the subject?   — 🇺🇦Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 16:30, 30 November 2025 (UTC)

Oh, I see, it is not because the signature is under the portrait, it means he was the (original) author. I still have a a lot to learn Thanks Jeff Lotje (talk) 17:06, 30 November 2025 (UTC)

• Just nominated it for deletion. A different book credits this to Wilfrid Leighton, who died in 1967. -Nard (Hablemonos) (Let's talk) 17:03, 30 November 2025 (UTC)

  @Nard the Bard: just coming back to this item. Would it make sense to have images of the pages starting with List of Illustrations to make life easier for the reader(s)? Thank you so so much for your thoughts. Lotje (talk) 04:53, 3 December 2025 (UTC)

  N.B. The subpage is Commons:Deletion requests/File:The counties of England, their story and antiquities (1912) (14578208158).jpg.   — 🇺🇦Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 11:41, 3 December 2025 (UTC)

Wrong dates

Hello Jeff, wondering what should be done with files lik these The date is incorrect, that is for sure) and the file should be renamed because of #2, but wat about the date? Date: 18 May 2009, 11:41 instead of Roma, Italia. Abril 18 de 2012. Thank you for thoughts. Lotje (talk) 12:52, 5 December 2025 (UTC)

@Lotje: I was thinking of the name File:Stefano Stefani and Héctor Timerman, 18 April 2012 (6944222862).jpg with {{Incorrect Exif date}} for this one. Please use {{Rename}} as the new first line of each file description page, or use our RenameLink gadget, to request a rename.   — 🇺🇦Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 14:01, 7 December 2025 (UTC)

Abuse filer query

Hi Jeff - could you cast an eye here when you have a minute. I never was an expert of filters and I'm certainly not now. Of course it may simply be that this is a new incarnation... Thanks and best Herby ^{talk thyme} 15:23, 11 December 2025 (UTC)

@Herbythyme: Since I am not allowed to see the content of possible LTA abuse filters 257 and 257a (or the attempted edits), and they are not differentiated by username, I regret that I have to defer to Эlcobbola and our learned Stewards on this matter (rather than jump the gun and say it looks like a particular one that feigns innocence).   — 🇺🇦Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 15:37, 11 December 2025 (UTC)

Readers may find m:User talk:Jeff G.#SRG enlightening.   — 🇺🇦Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 15:43, 11 December 2025 (UTC)

Thanks Jeff, appreciated anyway. Herby ^{talk thyme} 16:08, 11 December 2025 (UTC)

@Herbythyme: You're welcome. Thanks for asking. I appreciate your service of many years. I am more forthcoming about users without RBI and DFTT advice.   — 🇺🇦Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 16:18, 11 December 2025 (UTC)
