Newly processed images of Uranus and Neptune?[edit]
@Huntster: (and/or other) - May need help in adding an image[1] re a very recent processing of the planets Uranus and Neptune to Wikipedia, and being currently discussed on the Neptune talk-page - best images for the Uranus and Neptune articles may be crops of the latest processed images of Uranus and Neptune from the available published multi-image presentation[1] I would think - seems to be open-source (and CC-BY 4.0?) and ok but not sure at the moment - Thank You in advance for your help with this if possible - Stay Safe and Healthy !! - Drbogdan (talk) 01:02, 8 January 2024 (UTC)

- @Drbogdan: Article is indeed published under a CC-by-4.0 license, so the images should be fine. I'm unsure what the correct credits should be for https://academic.oup.com/view-large/figure/434837998/stad3761fig8.jpg, though the credits are explicit for https://academic.oup.com/view-large/figure/434837964/stad3761fig2.jpg. — Huntster (t @ c) 04:16, 8 January 2024 (UTC)
- @Drbogdan, would you mind if I uploaded higher resolution versions from https://academic.oup.com/view-large/figure/434837998/stad3761fig8.jpg? — Huntster (t @ c) 22:50, 8 January 2024 (UTC)
- ̪Thank You for your comments - and suggestion - no problem whatsoever - higher resolution images may have recently been added by an editor to the Uranus and Neptune main articles, but not clear about details re the newly added images - in any case - yes - entirely ok with me re your suggestion of course - Stay Safe and Healthy ǃǃ ̴̴ Drbogdan (talk) 23:06, 8 January 2024 (UTC)

Raised pavement markings[edit]
Hi, I noticed you recently moved several files of mine to this category (2022-06-12 10 59 27 A blue pavement reflector along Mountain View Road in the Mountainview section of Ewing Township, Mercer County, New Jersey.jpg, 2022-06-12 11 00 14 A blue pavement reflector along Mountain View Road in the Mountainview section of Ewing Township, Mercer County, New Jersey.jpg, and 2022-06-12 11 00 20 A blue pavement reflector along Mountain View Road in the Mountainview section of Ewing Township, Mercer County, New Jersey.jpg). Its my understanding that the intent for this category is for RAISED pavement markings (i.e., ones which are intended to create a noticeable bump as well as reflect light), which these are not intended to do (it may be hard to tell, but they are essentially flush with the pavement, a necessity in the snow-prone northeastern United States). Is there a definition of these items which I'm not familiar with which includes those which are flush with the pavement, or was this an error? Famartin (talk) 22:29, 5 February 2024 (UTC)
- @Famartin, since you don't believe they fit that category, I have moved them back. Looking at it more closely, I feel like a specific "Raised reflective markers" category should be made, since "Raised pavement markers" can encompass non-reflective markers as well. But, I suppose that's an issue for another time. — Huntster (t @ c) 23:05, 5 February 2024 (UTC)
- I notice the Wikipedia article its tagged with has a completely different name, so perhaps some significant reshuffling should be done. Famartin (talk) 23:27, 5 February 2024 (UTC)
