What would happen if you paired an early game Orianna with a Malady?
The other day I started to become curious when I started trying to finish out my late game Orianna build; what would an Orianna manage to do with any AS and her passive, such as malady? This article is originally intended as a mathematical reference to place results at early game and eventually late game statistics.
The basic statistics you may need to reference for Orianna,
Damage 44 (+2.6 / per level)
Attack speed 0.658 (+3.5% / per level)
Archmage (not factored into this equation, especially without more AP) increases your champion's ability power by 1.25% per rank. (5% at max rank)
A basic attack-
Damage 44 (+2.6 / per level) phys dmg + 30+20% AP x 1.15h Magic Damage where h, the number of hits, is less than 3
Attack speed= 0.658 (+3.5%) x attack speed bonus
+25 Ability Power +50% Attack Speed UNIQUE Passive: Your basic attacks deal 20 bonus magic damage and reduce the target's Magic Resist by 6 for 8 seconds (effect stacks up to 4 times).
Through Orianna's AD she deals Damage 44 (+2.6 / per level) per hit.
Malady adds (5/10/15/20/25/30+5) x (1.15 per hit) magic damage through Orianna's passive, in addition to 20 magic damage through Malady's unique passive, per hit.
This also reduces the opponents MR by 6 per hit
Final damage per second= damage x 100/(100+Resistance) (Attack speed)
Or {44 (+2.6 x lvl) x 100/(100+AR) + [((5/10/15/20/25/30+5) x 1.15^(h-1) + 20) x 100/(100+MR-6(h-1))]} (0.658 (+3.5% x lvl) (100+(Attack Speed Bonus/100))
At level 6, against an opponent with 0 armor or magic resist, this is equivalent to 59.6 + [(35) (1.15 (h-1))+20] (100/(100 - 6h)) (.78/sec) (1.5)
On any average first hit, Orianna will do
(59.6 + 35 + 20) = 114 OR 134 damage / sec
On a second hit, both malady and Orianna's passive will proc, this time dealing
59.6 + [(35 x 1.15) + 20] (100/94) = 123 damage
A third time, for
59.6 + [(35 x 1.15^2) + 20] (100/88) = 135 damage
A fourth time, for
59.6 + [(35 x 1.15^3) + 20] (100/82) = 149 damage
A fifth and on for
59.6 + [(35 x 1.15^3) + 20] (100/76) = 156 damage
A total of 5 hits for 677 damage over 4.3 seconds, or 158 damage per second, leaving them at (base)-24 MR, leaving them open for your level three command attack for 176, toppling an average 850 health mid, or leaving a few more skills or auto-attacks to finish the job.\
All of that being said, this still operates at only up to 75% cost efficiency of a blasting wand.
THINGS TO BE DONE- A comparative flat test
Other items
THE QUESTIONS I HAVE- does malady's MR reduction proc before the damage is dealt?
What are the average statistics for all of the champions, especially health and MR?
What is the average income by level 6?
I'll give extra credit to anyone who helps me make this cleaner, or supplies simplified formulas. Thanks!
[Reserved for further computing]
Its ok to theorycraft, but there's no way Orianna can possibly autoattack freely in any situation, she stands waaay away and deals AoE damage with constant poke from Q+W, and burst with Q R W, not auto.
I've seen many oriannas build malady/nashors.
It doesn't work
If you are against malady, what should I crunch number on next?
The problem with your idea is that....Orianna is hella slow AND low ranged.
If you can get an opponent to stand around and not attack you it's cool, but the problem is that her low range and general squishiness means that she'll more likely die rather than stack up her Passive.
L0rd Greybeard
you guys want to see what happens when you pair orianna with malady, heres my pentakill. As an on-hit orianna.
Junior Member
u could do this as a top orianna since most tops are melee champs, if they are ranged like vlad or kennen u play like any other ori, u Q and W to poke and then Q R W o bust them
Then what exactly is the point of Orianna's passive, if there's no way to take advantage of it, other than farming?

Seattle's 'James Franco Review' gives all writers celebrity statusLast Spring a prestigious publishing house published a book of poetry by actor James Franco. It was met with mediocre reviews and a ton of publicity. This got a Vashon Island writer thinking: what if everyone could submit their work as James Franco? Would we all have a fair shot at being published? So she created a literary magazine called the James Franco Review.

Learn more about the grand -- yet simple -- style of Craftsman design.
More in Remodeling
The architectural style termed "Craftsman" came into existence in the United States around 1905. Two brothers, Charles and Henry Greene, were homebuilders in Pasadena California from 1893 to 1914. In 1903 they developed their own style, which soon came to be known as "Craftsman" or "Craftsman bungalow." The style became quite popular and lasted into the early 1930s. Though Craftsman designs vary, they were typified by low-pitched roofs, usually gable style, with wide unenclosed eave overhangs. The roof rafters were typically exposed. Under the gables, heavy beams and braces were often added as a decorative element. Craftsman porches were also distinctive with tapered square columns, often made of field stone or stucco, accentuating the sturdy design. Inside a craftsman, elegant woodwork is typically displayed throughout. Its construction is usually wide, flat and solid-looking, making a statement of grand yet simple detail. Another characteristic feature was built-in cabinetry, including the distinctive butler's pantry.

SANTA FE (AP) - New Mexico lawmakers ended up with a better track record of enacting legislation this year.
Republican Gov. Susana Martinez vetoed 11 percent of the bills passed by the Democratic-controlled Legislature during its recent session.
When lawmakers last met for 30 days, the governor rejected nearly 17 percent of bills. Thirteen bills were vetoed out of 77 approved by the Legislature in 2012.
Wednesday was the deadline for Martinez to sign or veto measures from this year's session. The governor vetoed 10 bills and signed 81, including some in which she made changes with line-item vetoes.
Of this year's vetoes, the governor rejected two measures by not acting on them - a practice known as a "pocket veto." For those, the governor doesn't send a message to lawmakers explaining her decision.

This is a problem I have been battling with for a few days and am now at my wits end. I am creating an MSI with Wise Installation Studio but I would bet it could be repro'd with any MSI authoring program. I have created a test sample for those that wish to repro with the MSI, DLL or WSI files that I have posted.
- Create a new wise solution, saved as 'test.wsi' and creates 'test.msi'
- Do nothing to this file except to add two custom actions after the MigrateFeaturesState action in the 'UI Sequence'
- The first custom action is a 'Call DLL From Installation' that passes in no parameters and ignores the return code
- The second custom action is a 'Call Custom DLL From Installation' that passes in no parameters and ignores the return code
- Both actions reference the same DLL and same function, helloworld.dll and HelloWorld() function that just displays a 'HelloWorld' Message box
Expected Result: Two hello world prompts and then the regular UI screen to start the installation process.
Here is my current setup: Development Box: - Wise Installation Studio 184.108.40.206 - Win7 x64 running with UAC turned off,
Test Box: - Windows XP SP3 - Windows Installer v4.5.6001.22159 - .Net Framework v4.0
Here are my test cases:
- Non-admin with ascii user name - Results are as expected for both 'ALLUSERS=""' and ALLUSERS="1"
- Admin with unicode characters in name 'あくぇえ' - Results are as expected for both 'ALLUSERS=""' and ALLUSERS="1"
- Non-admin with unicode characters in name '发涩' - Only the first prompt appears and an error is displayed for the second as follows: "Error in custom action. The library C:\Documents and Settings\??[LongAlphaNumericString].TMP\WiseCustomCalla.dll is invalid or could not be found." This happens for both 'ALLUSERS=""' and ALLUSERS="1"
- Login with another admin and set user in #3 to admin, login with user in #3 again and we get the expected results.
I've tried messing around with forcing short paths and passing in an alternate path to the users data folder but nothing works. Anyone know why this is happening and how to fix it? I've included all the files I used for this testing here, this includes a screen shot of the error message, the msi and msi.xml, the wsi file, the helloworld.dll (test with rundll32 helloworld.dll,HellowWorld) and logs for each test case above.
What needs to be changed in the MSI/WSI file so that #3 works correctly for the 'Call Custom DLL from Installation' action?
Thanks, Aaron P

Dedication of the Holy Sepulchre: First and Foremost a Place of Worship
From the Custos earlier this week:
Every fifteenth of July the Diocese of Jerusalem commemorates the day that the Crusaders' Basilica of the Holy Sepulchre was consecrated as a religious building. In the same way as the Church joins together every November 9th to celebrate the Dedication of the Lateran Basilica, all the parishes and Catholic communities present in the Holy Land celebrate the Dedication of the Holy Sepulchre. As mass is sung daily by the Franciscans in front of Christ's tomb in the small hours of the morning, the Latin Church of Jerusalem joined the conventual community to celebrate this anniversary.
The dedication goes back to the year 1149, when the Crusaders consecrated the altar and sprinkled holy water in the newly rebuilt basilica. As Fra Stéphane reminds us, "We are not celebrating the glory of the Crusades. When the Franciscans came here in the 14th century and began to serve in the Holy Sepulchre, they were inserted into the country with their own values and ways of behaving: respect for others, dialogue and perseverance. This dedication recalls the primary purpose of the basilica—celebrating worship, a worship to which all the Christians in the world are invited."
The Custos of the Holy Land being on a pastoral visit to Syria and Cyprus at the moment, the Custodial Vicar, Fra Dobromir Jasztal, officiated for the celebration. In his homily, Fra Dobromir recalled that over the centuries there have been several dedications. Orthodox Christians commemorate, for example, the dedication of the Byzantine basilica by Constantine on September 14th. "Several dedications, several basilicas, but only one tomb and one mystery; that is the essence," he declared. Pilgrim or parishioner, everyone who prays at the Holy Sepulchre becomes a "witness of the Resurrection," he concluded.
This mystery of the Lord is celebrated every day in the Holy Sepulchre in different languages and according to different rites, as defined in the Status Quo of 1842. The worship is sometimes "inconvenient" or at least surprising to the crowd of impatient pilgrims waiting to enter the tomb who quickly move to one or another of the chapels or simply remain in place in pious silence. This Dedication of the Holy Sepulchre reminds us that public worship takes priority over the private desires of individuals: a precious time of encounter in the place where God renewed his covenant with his people.
… public worship takes priority over the private desires of individuals.

'Extraordinarily Rare' Crusade-Era Seal Discovered in Jerusalem
Discovery News reports on the find:
A rare Crusade-era lead seal used to secure a letter was uncovered in an ancient farmstead in Jerusalem, the Israel Antiquities Authority announced today (May 27).
The 800-year-old seal was likely once fixed to a document delivered to the farm from a sprawling cliffside monastery in the Judean Desert that was founded by Saint Sabas ("Mar Saba" in Aramaic) and once housed hundreds of monks.
"This is an extraordinarily rare find, because no such seal has ever been discovered to date," Benyamin Storchan and Benyamin Dolinka, excavation directors from the Israel Antiquities Authority, said in a statement.
This type of ancient seal was also known as a bulla in Latin. It consisted of two blank lead disks that would have been hammered together with a string between them. Opening the letter would cause obvious damage to the bulla, which was intended to discourage unauthorized people from breaking the seal.
One side of the seal bears the image of the bearded Byzantine-era Saint Sabas, who is wearing a himation (essentially a Greek version of a toga), brandishing a cross in his right hand and perhaps holding a copy of the gospel in his left hand. The other side of the seal is etched with a Greek inscription, translated as: "This is the seal of the Laura of the Holy Sabas." (The monastery was also called the "Great Laura" of Mar Saba. A laura, or lavra, is a type of Orthodox Christian monastery that has a cluster of caves for hermit monks.)
"The Mar Saba monastery apparently played an important role in the affairs of the Kingdom of Jerusalem during the Crusader period, maintaining a close relationship with the ruling royal family," Robert Kool, a researcher with the Israel Antiquities Authority who examined the seal, said in a statement. "The monastery had numerous properties, and this farm may have been part of the monastery's assets during the Crusader period."
The seal was uncovered during excavations in 2012 in southwestern Jerusalem's Bayit VeGan quarter. The farm site was established during the Byzantine period (5th–6th centuries A.D.) and resettled during the Crusader period (11th–12th centuries A.D.).
A document in the archives of the Church of the Holy Sepulcher in Jerusalem refers to a farming settlement known as Thora that was sold to the Mar Saba monastery in 1163–1164. The location of that farm was lost to history, but the Mar Saba seal could link the recently excavated farm to Thora, explained Storchan and Dolinka in a statement.
Ancient Rural Town Uncovered in Israel
On the outskirts of Jerusalem.
… archaeologists have discovered the remains of a 2,300-year-old rural village that dates back to the Second Temple period, the Israel Antiquities Authority (IAA) announced.
Trenches covering some 8,000 square feet (750 square meters) revealed narrow alleys and a few single-family stone houses, each containing several rooms and an open courtyard. Among the ruins, archaeologists also found dozens of coins, cooking pots, milling tools and jars for storing oil and wine.
"The rooms generally served as residential and storage rooms, while domestic tasks were carried out in the courtyards," Irina Zilberbod, the excavation director for the IAA, explained in a statement.
Archaeologists don't know what the town would have been called in ancient times, but it sits near the legendary Burma Road, a route that allowed supplies and food to flow into Jerusalem during the 1948 Arab-Israeli War. The rural village located on a ridge with a clear view of the surrounding countryside, and people inhabiting the region during the Second Temple period likely cultivated orchards and vineyards to make a living, IAA officials said.
The Second Temple period (538 B.C. to A.D. 70) refers to the lifetime of the Jewish temple that was built on Jerusalem's Temple Mount to replace the First Temple after it was destroyed. Archaeological evidence suggests this provincial village hit its peak during the third century B.C., when Judea was under the control of the Seleucid monarchy after the breakup of Alexander the Great's empire. Residents seem to have abandoned the town at the end of the Hasmonean dynasty — when Herod the Great came into power in 37 B.C. — perhaps to chase better job opportunities in the city amid an economic downturn.
"The phenomenon of villages and farms being abandoned at the end of the Hasmonean dynasty or the beginning of Herod the Great's succeeding rule is one that we are familiar with from many rural sites in Judea," archaeologist Yuval Baruch explained in a statement. "And it may be related to Herod's massive building projects in Jerusalem, particularly the construction of the Temple Mount, and the mass migration of villagers to the capital to work on these projects."
The discovery was made during a salvage excavation ahead of a construction project that began last year; a 21-mile-long (35 kilometers) gas pipeline was supposed to run through the site, but engineering plans were revised to go around the ruins, IAA officials said. Salvage excavations are common in Israel to avoid building over ancient sites. For instance, remarkably well-preserved Byzantine church mosaics were recently revealed ahead of the construction of a park, and an ancient Roman road connecting Jerusalem to Jaffa was uncovered ahead of the installation of a drainage pipe.

A snowfall warning has been issued for Edmonton, St. Albert and Sherwood Park with 10 to 20 centimetres expected. After the city is pummelled by snow Wednesday night, frigid Arctic air will drop daytime highs into the -20 C range over the weekend, Environment Canada said on its website.
The Edmonton Oil Kings certainly got the message leading up to a 4-1 victory over the Swift Current Broncos on Wednesday night. Head Coach Steve Hamilton laid into his team following the Oil Kings 4-3 loss to Prince Albert the night before, referring to his team's defensive zone work as a train wreck during the post-game scrum. Hamilton put the onus on his team's veterans to respond, sitting down with the Oil Kings' leaders before the game.
Critics said Wednesday they will withhold judgment on Premier Jim Prentice's plan to reform Alberta's civil service until they learn more about what he has in store. Alberta's new Progressive Conservative premier signalled earlier this week he will embark on significant reform of the public service in an attempt to address high turnover, low morale and other pressing issues.

just shorted this puppy at $4.06was long, but you have to go with flow.this thing will close under $4 today.this is easy money
Easiest money ever lost for brain dead Joey. Announced his short on the eave of a silver break-out. We should call you 'Wrong Way Joey' and go in the reverse of all your brilliant moves in the future.
the day is still young. very young.silver is up over a buck and you get a great production report like that and GPL is only up 11 cents. It should be up 35-40 cents under these conditions.this will drop below $4.00 by the end of the day.still need to fill that gap at $3.60.watch and learn.
please dont answer your phone. it may be your broker calling...pay up
Oh my, poor ole Joey Putz.
Like others have pointed out, there's a high amount of risk for low potential reward by shorting GPL at $4.06. I hope you hold for a few days; a gap up will ravage your account. Seriously, the time to short this was when it was overbought. It's far from overbought now. You're playing with fire.
JOE me says u make the wrong move. Maybe u should have do that before end of May and not now.
Me thinks you are smoking yesterday's navel lint!!Most you could make on that short is around .20. Me thinks you just throw a post out there on a phising expedtion.Just my two cents
.20 cents will make me a small fortune. that would be great, but in the end it will be more than .20 cents.but you will learn and then I will go long again and make that 20 cents and more back on the way up -- while you are out and wondering what the hell happened.
stupid is as stupid does. btw, there is no easy money. Gap should be filled by early next week. The gap between your ears may never be filled.
Congratulations. You are already in the red.
sorry guys,don't fight it.i'm in the green big-time now.i will let you know when I cover.I'm thinking around $3.60.this thing is going down, while silver is going up -- NOT GOOD
brave man, especially considering spot is taking off. i wish you luck.
joe --you're timing:NOT GOOD.
What a dumb move. You have got to be kidding.

Catholics lean slightly toward Romney
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Despite a battle over birth-control policy between the White House and Roman Catholic leaders, U.S. Catholics' political views differ little from those of non-Catholic voters, according to Reuters/Ipsos poll results released on Monday.
About four in 10, or 37 percent, of Catholic voters approve of Democratic President Barack Obama's performance, and 48 percent disapprove, according to the online survey of registered voters conducted February 6-13.
The numbers are nearly identical for non-Catholic, with 37 percent approving and 50 percent disapproving, the online poll found.
Twenty-five percent of Catholic voters feel the country is headed in the right direction, and 61 percent believe it is not, the survey said, compared with 24 percent and 63 percent for non-Catholics.
Results for Catholics and non-Catholics also both show a statistical dead heat if Republican Mitt Romney were his party's nominee and the 2012 presidential election were held today, although Catholic voters favor Romney slightly over Obama.
The online poll found that 42 percent of non-Catholic registered voters would back Obama, versus 39 percent for Romney. Among Catholics, 42 percent would pick Obama, but the number was higher - 44 percent - for Romney.
"It certainly suggests that Catholics are a little more Romney-favorable than not," said Chris Jackson, research director for Ipsos Public Affairs.
Obama on Friday made health insurers responsible for providing free birth control to employees of religious groups. The move aimed to placate leaders of the Catholic church who oppose contraception and objected to the initial rule that church institutions be forced to provide such coverage.
The policy ended days of squabbling between the administration, church officials and Republicans in Congress over the rule, which had briefly seemed like it might become a campaign issue in the November presidential election.
Romney and other Republicans vying for the nomination to oppose Obama's re-election bid used the issue to contend that the White House was waging a war on religion.
The Reuters/Ipsos survey found that 42 percent of Catholics disagreed with the idea that religious hospitals or health organizations should be required to provide birth control or contraceptives.
Thirty-three percent of non-Catholics disagreed.
Jackson said the result indicated that, given the issue's sensitivity, Obama had done well to come up with a solution well before the November 6 general election.
"Getting out with a win, or at least a draw, now is a good strategy before it becomes a bigger issue," he said. "His best chances for re-election have always been the economy and focusing on the improvement in the economy."
The precision of the Reuters/Ipsos online polls is measured using a credibility interval, a statistical measure used because the sample of likely voters is selected from pre-screened voter panels.
For the broader poll, non-Catholic registered voters had a credibility interval of plus or minus 2.6 percentage points. The interval was plus or minus 5.2 percentage points for Catholic registered voters.
For the contraception questions asked between February 8 and 13, non-Catholic responses had a credibility interval of plus or minus 3.4 percentage points; Catholic responses had a credibility interval of 6.7 percentage points.
The broader survey interviewed 1,899 non-Catholic registered voters and 484 Catholic registered voters. The contraception questions were asked of 1,136 non-Catholics and 287 Catholics.

More OPRF students involved in co-curriculars
By Terry Dean
More students participated in co-curricular and sports activities at Oak Park and River Forest High School last year, according to data released by the high school.
A total of 2,286 students were involved in at least one activity during the 2012-13 school year, compared to 2,259 students the previous year. Last year's figures represent 71 percent of the study body, which totals just over 3,200 students, according to OPRF's annual extracurricular participation report released last week.
The report notes that many students are involved in more than one sports or co-curricular activity. School officials have urged students to participate in at least one activity. They have also urged greater participation among minority students. According to the report, a total of 902 minority students participated in activities in 2012-13, up from 818 the previous year.
While the overall minority figure increased in the last year, involvement among African Americans declined. A total of 510 black students participated in 2011-12, compared to 492 last year. Hispanic students, on the other hand, increased their involved by nearly 50 percent, from 96 to 181 in 2012-13.
Overall, participation by gender was roughly even, with slightly more girls, 51 percent, than boys.
OPRF offers 29 sports and 68 activity programs to students.

St. Giles, Austin students help needy families
Students from Oak Park's St. Giles School and Christ the King Jesuit Academy in neighboring Austin spent the summer fixing up homes for low-income families in central Appalachia.
The students took part in the Appalachia Service Project (ASP) in July. They joined volunteers from around the country, helping to repair homes for families in the rural, mountainous area. Based in Johnson City, Tenn., the ASP's youth program serves 14- to 18-year-olds, with teens assigned a family to work with.
The weeklong excursion last summer took part in states including Kentucky, North Carolina and West Virginia. The students helped paint houses, repair roofs, hang drywall and fix floors.
The Appalachia Service Project is a year-round, faith-based program that began in 1969, with teens and adults fixing homes in Kentucky. The program has since expanded, with more than 300,000 volunteers repairing 15,000 homes since its inception, according to the organization's website (asphome.org).

text: 14 August 2012 Groups Ask Obama to Protect Wolves in Northwest Posted by: John Motsinger | Leave a comment | Share: The lone male wolf known as OR7 may be in trouble if federal protections are removed for wolves in the Pacific Northwest. There are about 50 wolves in the Pacific Northwest that range between Washington, Oregon and northern California, but only a tiny handful of them are protected under the federal Endangered Species Act. That's why Defenders and 23 other conservation groups sent a letter to President Obama today, asking his administration to maintain those protections until the population has fully recovered. When Congress delisted wolves in the Northern Rockies last year, wolves in eastern Washington and eastern Oregon lost their protection as well. But wolves in the western portion of those states are located outside of the Northern Rockies "distinct population segment" and thus still remain listed under the ESA. However, another anticipated delisting from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service could strip federal protections for gray wolves across the entire lower 48, including the Pacific Northwest. There are currently two packs in Washington—the Lookout and Teanaway packs—that reside in the western portion of the state. A lone male wolf has also spent the last eight months traveling between southwest Oregon and northern California. These are the only known wolves in the Pacific Northwest that are currently protected under the federal ESA. "Wolves have made an incredible comeback in the Rockies, but that doesn't mean it's time to give up on wolf recovery in the West," said Pamela Flick, California program coordinator with Defenders of Wildlife. "Californians deserve the chance to see wolves returned to their former habitat in our state too, and maintaining federal protections across the Pacific Northwest is the best way to make sure that happens." Defenders and our colleagues are urging the Fish and Wildlife Service to create a new distinct population segment for the Pacific Northwest to maintain federal protections until wolves have fully recovered. While Oregon and Washington already have plans in place to restore wolves, protection under the federal ESA will commit additional resources to wolf recovery in the region. It also provides an extra safety net in case either state starts managing wolves too aggressively. Both Oregon and Washington have done a reasonably good job so far, but wildlife managers are under increasing pressure from anti-wolf extremists to limit wolf numbers. In California, however, wolves could be without any safety net whatsoever if federal protections are eliminated. Defenders is working closely with California Department of Fish and Game to come up with a solid state management plan, but it's still a ways off. The state is currently considering adding wolves to the state endangered species list, but there's no guarantee of such protections. We must act now to prevent this unwarranted delisting, before it's too late. Wolves in the Pacific Northwest need full protection of the federal ESA to give them the best chance to recover.

- This image was taken and uploaded by me and so is not a copyright violation. If I failed to put the correct copyright tag on then I apologise. However, now that it has been deleted I cannot see or correct the tag. Please could it be un-deleted? Oosoom Talk to me 13:45, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
- Your picture was a derivative work after Pol Bury's Spheres. As the artist died in 2005, the artwork itself is still copyrighted. Unfortunately, there is no freedom of panorama in France. Jastrow (Λέγετε) 15:51, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
- Fascinating. Thank you. Does that also apply to buildings in France? Oosoom Talk to me 16:04, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
- Unfortunately, yes. There is a small exception for works of art whose representation is only incidental. For instance, there is no copyright problem with a picture whose subject is the main court of the Palais-Royal (which is obviously in the public domain), even if it shows the Spheres on a small scale, because it's impossible to shoot the whole court without showing Pol Bury's work. Jastrow (Λέγετε) 10:37, 2 March 2007 (UTC)
- Thank you for including references to COM:DW and COM:FOP, which I should have read before troubling you again. The situation on sculptures is different in the UK. Oosoom Talk to me 12:01, 2 March 2007 (UTC)
- My mistake, I should have been more explicit instead of pasting here the generic copyvio notice. The concept of COM:FOP seems indeed very natural and I myself was quite surprised to hear this line of thought did not apply in countries such as France or Italy. I do hope the European legislation will align itself on the more liberal countries such as the UK. Jastrow (Λέγετε) 12:44, 2 March 2007 (UTC)
- Hallo, you 've upload several images called Image:BSicon.... . The problem is, that the prefix "BSIcon" is commonly used for Rrailway-icons. Only icons with railway and water shoudt appear in the category for canal. Therefore I want to ask you for uploading the images using annother prefix, please. For example, you can use CanalIcon..., this prefix isn't used. It wouldt be nice, to do so for keeping a well system of icons.
- Something else is important: Please, don't upload SVG-images with a size of more than 32767 Pixels. That crashes browsers. The problem appears usually by using CorelDraw. Do you know, how to adjust the SVGs with a plain-text-editor ? Augiasstallputzer 09:12, 14 October 2007 (UTC)
- Hello Augiasstallputzer. The de. railway icon mapping templates have become popular on English Wikipedia and the guys there started using some of the existing blue railway icons. Things have progressed from there and many more icons have been created which are specific to canals. Since the German railway templates are used it was necessary and natural for further icons to have the BSicon prefix. If this is going to be a problem then perhaps it should be raised as soon as possible.
- I intended the icons to be 500x500. Have I let some through with the wrong size? Which? I can edit the SVG as text, but only for extremely simple icons as I can only guess the language. Best wishes, Oosoom Talk to me 20:21, 14 October 2007 (UTC)
No, its not a big problem let them named as they are, but it is very important, that the icons are sorted into the correct categories. For example, an icon with only a house on it shoudt be in another category than a icon for canal. To adjust the size of a CorelDraw-generated SVG:
- Open the SVG with a plain text editor
- At the top of the file, you can see a tag starting with "<svg". This line contains parts with width="BigXpx" height="BigYpx" and viewBox="0 0 BigX BigY", where BigX and BigY are two very large numbers.
- In case, the image has square form (BigX = BigY) you simply can change the values behind width and height to width="500px" height="500px"
- In case of a rectangle you can calculate the size. Set width to 500 and set height to 500 * BigY / BigX . That creates an image with a width of 500 and a height which keeps the original form of the image (no "stretching").
To test SVG: The best Browser for SVG-files I tested is Firefox, version 2.0 or later. Augiasstallputzer 23:03, 14 October 2007 (UTC)
- Thanks. I know how to change pixel size. Which icons have the wrong size? And which icons are in the wrong category? Oosoom Talk to me 09:46, 15 October 2007 (UTC)
There is still only one large oldversion left. I 've asked a Sysop for deleting the old version and I 've changed several categories. Augiasstallputzer 14:11, 18 October 2007 (UTC)
Cathedral of St Mary the Crowned[edit]
Hallo Oosoom , why is the category Cathedrals in the United Kingdom wrong? --Hedwig Storch 15:53, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
- Very sorry. I've put it back. Another lesson learned :) Oosoom Talk 16:34, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
- Yes, it is good --Hedwig Storch 14:50, 20 February 2008 (UTC)
Tip: Categorizing images[edit]
Hello, Oosoom!
Thanks a lot for contributing to the Wikimedia Commons! Here's a tip to make your uploads more useful: Why not add some categories to describe them? This will help more people to find and use them.
Here's how:
1) If you're using the UploadWizard, you can add categories to each file when you describe it. Just click "more options" for the file and add the categories which make sense:
2) You can also pick the file from your list of uploads, edit the file description page, and manually add the category code at the end of the page.
- [[Category:Category name]]
For example, if you are uploading a diagram showing the orbits of comets, you add the following code:
- [[Category:Astronomical diagrams]]
- [[Category:Comets]]
This will make the diagram show up in the categories "Astronomical diagrams" and "Comets".
When picking categories, try to choose a specific category ("Astronomical diagrams") over a generic one ("Illustrations"). Pro-tip: The CommonSense tool can help you find the best category for your image.
Thanks again for your uploads! More information about categorization can be found in Commons:Categories, and don't hesitate to leave a note on the help desk.

File:Moseley School ceiling panels 78.jpg[edit]
There seems to be a problem regarding the description and/or licensing of this particular file. It has been found that you've added in the image's description only a Template that's not a license and although it provides useful information about the image, it's not a valid license. Could you please resolve this problem, adding the license in the image linked above? You can edit the description page and change the text. Uploading a new version of the file does not change the description of the file. This page may give you more hints on which license to choose. Thank you.
