Autopatrol given

Hello. I just wanted to let you know that I have granted autopatrol rights to your account; the reason for this is that I believe you are sufficiently trustworthy and experienced to have your contributions automatically marked as "reviewed". This has no effect on your editing, it is simply intended to make it easier for users that are monitoring Recent changes or Recent uploads to find unproductive edits amidst the productive ones like yours. In addition, the Flickr upload feature and an increased number of batch-uploads in UploadWizard, uploading of freely licensed MP3 files and an increased limit for page renames per minute are now available to you. Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Hedwig in Washington (talk • contribs) 6 jan 2019 16:58‎ (UTC)

Welcome, Dear Filemover!

Hi JopkeB, you're now a filemover. When moving files please respect the following advice:

• Use the CommonsDelinker link in the {{Rename}} template to order a bot to replace all ocurrences of the old title with the new one. Or, if there was no rename-request, please use the Move & Replace-tab.
• Please leave a redirect behind unless you have a valid reason not to do so. Other projects, including those using InstantCommons, might be using the file even though they don't show up in the global usage. Deleting the redirects would break their file references. Please see this section of the file rename guideline for more information.
• Please know and follow the file rename guidelines.

Koninklijke familie

Beste JopkeB, Ik zie dat jij bij diverse "Oranjes" een categorie toevoegt "Royal Family of the Netherlands". Ik ben geen expert op het gebied van koninklijke families, maar bijv. over Christina staat in NL-Wiki: "Voor het huwelijk was door de regering - conform de wens van Christina - geen toestemming aan de Staten-Generaal gevraagd. Christina werd daardoor uitgesloten van erfopvolging en was vanaf haar huwelijksdag geen lid meer van het Koninklijk Huis." Maar goed, zij was ooit wel lid, dus die categorie past bij haar. Maar zijn haar kinderen dan nog wel "Royal Family of the Netherlands"? Vysotsky (talk) 13:38, 6 November 2022 (UTC)

Beste Vysotsky, ja, ik ben inderdaad aan het proberen de categorieën over de familie Van Oranje cs duidelijker te stroomlijnen en aan te vullen. En ik denk eenoog in het land der blinden op dit gebied te zijn (geen super-expert, maar weet er wel het één-en-ander van). Mijn toelichting op je vraag/opmerkingen: Er bestaat verschil tussen de Koninklijke Familie en het Koninklijk Huis en het Huis van Oranje-Nassau.

• Tot de Koninklijk Familie behoren alle verwanten van de familie Van Oranje-Nassau, ook zij die niet tot het Koninklijk Huis en/of het Huis van Oranje-Nassau horen. Dus ook de prinsessen Christina en Irene en hun nakomelingen. Net als bij een "gewone" familie.
• Het Koninklijk Huis is zeer strikt bij wet geregeld: alleen de huidige Koning (of regerende koningin), diens echtgeno(o)t(e), zij die gerechtigd zijn tot de troon tot in de tweede graad, plus zijn moeder.
• Het Huis van Oranje-Nassau bevat in feite alle nakomelingen van Willem van Oranje en hun echtgenotes, die de titel Prins(es) van Oranje-Nassau mochten/mogen dragen. Tegenwoordig wordt deze titel nog mondjesmaat verstrekt, alleen aan hen die bij hun geboorte gerechtigd zijn tot de troon.

Street photography

Hallo Jopke, Ik heb bij Street Photography een korte beschrijving geplaatst die neutraal is t.a.v. de discussie die er nudoor jou gelanceerd staat. Deze kan heel lang gaan duren of helemaal niets opleveren, zo te zien. Jammer! Maar ik vind het belangrijk dat Street Photography door mensen online te vinden is als ze met dat woord gaan zoeken - en zonder een minimale beschrijving is die kans nihil.

OK, gezien. --JopkeB (talk) 15:06, 30 November 2022 (UTC)

Suriname and the Netherlands Antilles

re [1]

Whilst I agree that Suriname is not part of the Netherlands Antilles, the header comment on Category:Photographs by Willem van de Poll in the Netherlands Antilles always included Suriname because this was the most useful and logical grouping for them, for our purposes. Is there some better term that we could rename that category to, maybe Dutch Caribbean, that would incude both? Andy Dingley (talk) 08:31, 27 December 2022 (UTC)

My opinion:

• w:nl:Nederlandse Antillen (most clear definition): "De Nederlandse Antillen zijn zes eilanden in de Caraïbische Zee". (Aruba, Curaçao, Sint Maarten, Bonaire, Sint Eustatius, and Saba). As you pointed out: Suriname was never a part of it, and I guess Suriname is more than 1000 km away from the closest of these islands.
• If a Commons category is about "the Netherlands Antilles" there should be no photos about Suriname in it. It is odd to have a category name while the description says something else. If a category is about both, the category name should be Category:Photographs by Willem van de Poll in the Netherlands Antilles and Suriname, but I prefer two seperate categories.
• A better grouping would be something with "the West", because so Suriname and the Netherlands Antilles were known in those days. But I prefer seperate categories.
• There is already a Category:Dutch Caribbean, but that also is only about the islands, not about Suriname.
• Though for us in Europe it may seem that Suriname and the Netherlands Antilles are very much alike and can be treated as one entity, in reality they are not. I prefer seperate treatment on Commons, all the more because Suriname is an independant country since 1975 and should have its own line of categories on Commons. All images and other files about Suriname should be in a category in that line. How could someone who is not familiar with its history, otherwise find files about Suriname?

JopkeB (talk) 09:39, 27 December 2022 (UTC)

To add to this, there exists another category, Category:Photographs by Willem van de Poll in Suriname. And as JopkeB states, it are totally different countries/geographies. The only thing former Dutch Antilles and Surinam have in Common that once all were colonized by the Netherlands. Like Britain has had colonies which were geographical unrelated.

Hi,

Suriname is part of the Caribbean diaspora, which includes parts of the mainland as well: en:Caribbean.

Wikimedia Netherlands has a Caribbean working group which includes collaborations with people from Suriname, and hold bi-monthly editing sessions in the Hague if you would like to discuss the best approach. There is also a Wikimedians of the Caribbean UG, who I am sure would be happy to advise and collaborate in thinking how to structure this best as well. Ciell (talk) 19:17, 27 December 2022 (UTC)
