Graphics Lab/Illustration workshop

Shortcuts

The Graphics Lab is a project to improve the graphical content of the Wikimedia projects. Requests for image improvements can be added to the workshop pages: Illustrations, Photographs and Maps. For questions or suggestions one can use the talk pages: Talk:Graphics Lab, Talk:Illustrations, Talk:Photographs and Talk:Maps.
This specific page is the requests page for the illustration workshop. Anyone can make a request for an illustration to be improved or created for a Wikipedia article. Clicking the "New Request" button will bring you to a standard template for submitting requests, as well as general advice that should be followed.

Advice to requesters

All requests:

Please make sure your request is "legitimate" by copyright. If the image(s) are in the public domain or freely licensed, you are fine. If the image(s) are "Fair use", there are only certain things we can do with them without falling afoul of Wikipedia's fair-use policies.
- If you are requesting assistance with a copyright or fair-use image, don't display it on this page; place {{GLNF|Example.png|caption|align=left}} to create a link to it. Do not add the File: extension. Our fair-use policy does not allow displaying fair-use images out of their articles on ANY account.
Please check back regularly to see if progress has been made or if any additional questions need to be answered before the request can be completed.
If a request is done to your satisfaction, please mark it with {{resolved}}.

SVG requests:

Make sure your request can actually BE vectorized. Note that vector drawings are not suitable for certain applications. We generally use SVG format for icons, logos, drawings, maps, flags, and such. Certain things, photographs especially, are totally impossible to vectorize.
Per our non-free content policy, vectorization of copyrighted images is not permitted. If a vectorized non-free image is desired, seek out such an image from the copyright holder.

@Snow Lion Fenian: Request taken. for design 3, despite SVG transformations being a pain in the ass. QuickQuokka ^{[⁠talk • contribs]} 13:06, 29 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Snow Lion Fenian:

Done but I need author and copyright/licensing information before I upload. QuickQuokka ^{[⁠talk • contribs]} 13:41, 29 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Preferably just edit my Commons sandbox with the information and ping me afterwards. QuickQuokka ^{[⁠talk • contribs]} 14:29, 29 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@QuickQuokka: Thank you, and sorry for the delay in responding. Well, all three designs originate from BBC Derby. According to the original website, the designer of the original concept was Leon Summers, with BBC Derby modifying his submission to create what was known as "Design 3". Which is also exactly what BBC Derby did with Martin Enright's submission, modifying it to create "Design 1" (which was of course chosen as Derbyshire's flag). Hence, I'd recommend giving the new file the same CR tag as "Design 1". Hope this helps. Snow Lion Fenian (talk) 15:29, 5 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Snow Lion Fenian: The description page of the file says it's released to the public domain by the author, and supposedly also the author (I don't really believe the uploader is the author), but there's no source to verify that unfortunately. QuickQuokka ^{[⁠talk • contribs]} 16:25, 5 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@QuickQuokka: Good point, and profuse apologies for the excessively long delay in getting back to you. Well, I certainly don't pretend to be an expert on CR licenses on Wikipedia. The impression I've gotten is that the uploader wanted to waive their rights to the file, but went about it the wrong way, resulting in using a license that creates a slight bit of confusion. After considering it all, I'd now recommend giving the new file the "Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported", in order to cover the same bases while making it clear that the uploader is not the original designer. Hope this helps. Snow Lion Fenian (talk) 18:43, 31 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Snow Lion Fenian: Now looking at it after having uploaded it, I see I accidentally used the wrong flower design. Should I fix this? QuickQuokka ^{[⁠talk • contribs]} 10:04, 3 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@QuickQuokka: Oh yes, if you think you can correct the flower, then don't let me stop you. But no pressure if you can't. Snow Lion Fenian (talk) 14:34, 3 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia logos resize request[edit]

Central Dusun logo

Article(s): wikipedia:Slogans
Request: I have a very simple question. Please, is there someone that can kindly resize this Wikipedia logo?

"Preparing files for upload" section at the page Word mark creation say clearly "width 135px, height 155px".

Many, many and many thanks in advance for all you can do!!! --93.47.37.212 (talk) 09:57, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

File is svg, dimensions listed are for png. Proportions are consistent with other svg logos. No adjustment needed. WelpThatWorked (talk) 14:14, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@WelpThatWorked: why this logo in the page wikipedia:Slogans is bigger than others? All Wikipedia logos should be in same size! --93.47.36.116 (talk) 08:06, 13 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

That's because it did not have a set render size like the others on the page. That was fixed in Special:Diff/1228805214, it should appear the correct size now. WelpThatWorked (talk) 13:53, 13 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Please, resize the svg. I tried and I was not able... ALL Wikipedia logos are width 135px, height 155px, why only this logo is different??? 93.47.36.144 (talk) 16:17, 17 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Please replace the crowns on the flag with the given version and send the current version of the flag under the same title with the years added (1981-2023). [1]

The shield from the above-right flag of Anguilla could be used as a template for the change (albeit with the same kind of gold border used on the shield in the current version of the file). Thanks.

Please make a version of these symbols from the years 1871-1952. The only thing that needs to be changed is the crown on the coat of arms to the one I provided. [2]. The governor's flag began to be used in 1874.

Coat of Arms of Keith Newton[edit]

Article(s): Keith Newton (prelate)
Request: This is a cobbled together coat of arms from various SVG elements. Everything is correct and in the right place(ish), it could just do with a tidy-up by someone more proficient than I am, especially with regards the text along the bottom. The blue cross in the centre ought really be a bit wider and the fleur de lis wider and larger as a result to maintain proportions. If anyone is able to clean it up, I'd be hugely grateful.

I also ask that the coat of arms (consisting of the crest, the shield and the motto) is uploaded as a separate file so it can be displayed alongside the flag and seal in the same style as the pages of other places in Maryland such as Montgomery County and Gaithersburg.
