Some wiki technique

 * Request:
 * Not a job, but this: can someone give a link to this mw:page? There is a wiki extension that does: "mouse-position on an image = wikilink"? Just a mw:page would be OK. I remember it is documented greatly. -DePiep (talk) 02:29, 6 September 2015 (UTC)

VITA shade guides

 * Article(s):
 * Tooth whitening


 * Request:
 * Please improve these photos. The shade guide would ideally be the same size by cropping, and the lighting conditions better too. Many thanks if you can help -- Matthew Ferguson (talk) 09:34, 6 September 2015 (UTC)

✅ Best I can do. If someone else wants to go back to the originals, feel free. I will not be offended :) Carl Henderson (talk) 03:43, 13 September 2015 (UTC)

Lossless crop

 * Article(s):
 * National Register of Historic Places listings in Kenton County, Kentucky


 * Request:
 * Just hoping for a little lossless cropping. Please draw a line between the two houses and upload each half separately.  A line that cuts the red car in half would probably work well, since the building behind it is a garage that doesn't matter.  Nyttend (talk) 02:12, 8 September 2015 (UTC)

 * Request:
 * Would it be possible to clear the image, removing the man visible in the background and maybe even the shoulder in the foreground? This is Thompson's lead image so it would be great to see it improved. --  Loeba (talk) 11:42, 11 September 2015 (UTC)

✅ This is the best I can do with it. If someone can do better, please go ahead. I've cleaned it up as much as I can and saved as much detail as was possible using the filter. Carl Henderson (talk) 01:35, 17 September 2015 (UTC)

Final Fantasy Tactics cover art

 * Article(s):
 * Final Fantasy Tactics


 * Request:
 * I requested undeletion of old revisions of the file. However, administrators refused for copyright concerns. Actually, I recently changed my preference to "400px" for many images. The image looks too small for anyone preferring to see a larger scale of the image. The same could not be said, however, for everyone else being fine with the image as is. The image went alterations before size reduction, an improvement from original version of the image. How do you do the same alterations as the current image with a larger scale? -- George Ho (talk) 08:32, 14 September 2015 (UTC)

Hi, there is no 'upload new version ' here how can I do so ?--&#9;Aryan hindustan (talk) ,Aryan from Hindustan (talk) 07:26, 17 September 2015 (UTC)
 * There is a link to upload a new version but this can only be accessed when viewing the file on Commons as that's where it is hosted, look at the bottom of the 'File History' section. Regards, Fallschirmjäger &#9993; 09:29, 18 September 2015 (UTC)

Highlight parts of image

 * Article(s):
 * List of National Treasures of Japan (castles)


 * Request:
 * In the same style as File:Matsumoto-Castle-center.jpg or File:Matsumoto-Castle-far right.jpg highlight the main keep (large structure in back) and (in another image) highlight the attached tower (small structure with entrance in front). As source image any image showing the castle can be used, i.e. any from commons:Category:Matsue Castle or its subcategories. -- bamse (talk) 21:51, 21 September 2015 (UTC)

Remove dark area at left of photo

 * Article(s):
 * Currently used in a large number of articles in many languages


 * Request:
 * Please remove the distracting dark area along the left frame and replace it with the same neutral blue as the rest of the background. -- Jonathunder (talk) 02:02, 22 September 2015 (UTC)

✅ However the article is protected and will not allow me to upload a new version under the same file name, so please note the new name "Malcolm Turnbull 2014 Blotch Removed.jpg" of my upload. You will have to get it updated on the protected page, if that is desired.Carl Henderson (talk) 03:13, 24 September 2015 (UTC)

✅ Replaced with a better version of the photograph. ( Hohum  @ ) 17:31, 23 September 2015 (UTC)
 * That's a much better scan for base material, thank you! Can the background be lightened slightly so his hair and shoulders have some contrast, is what I mean.--Kintetsubuffalo (talk) 00:16, 29 September 2015 (UTC)

 * Request:
 * There's a few things that could be done to make this image 'unsuck'. I'm not sure what's appropriate, but off the top of my head, I can think of
 * Remove the 'back of the page' that bleed in when scanning the original
 * Make the image straight.
 * Remove the gray 'haze'?
 * Sharpen/unblur? -- Headbomb {talk / contribs / physics / books} 19:14, 25 September 2015 (UTC)

✅ How's that look? MjolnirPants  Tell me all about it.  20:40, 25 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Graphist opinion(s):
 * Apologies for stepping on your toes. Reworked, less blurry, and straightened. ( Hohum  @ ) 23:51, 25 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Also upload version with paper texture. Revert as you prefer. ( Hohum  @ ) 23:57, 25 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Looks like some details were lost in that line at the bottom. The text in the image is also not perfectly horizontal. The final S in SCAVANS is also located a few pixels higher than the initial S. But in general, Hohum's version looks pretty good. Headbomb {talk / contribs / physics / books} 16:54, 28 September 2015 (UTC)

 * Request:
 * can something be done about the weird background which creates a false frame? Thanks… -- Kintetsubuffalo (talk) 16:13, 28 September 2015 (UTC)

✅ I removed one side of the black bar. I could remove the top, but it would take a lot of work, and likely wouldn't look very good. I think this removes the impression of a frame. Let me know what you think. MjolnirPants  Tell me all about it.  18:51, 28 September 2015 (UTC)
