I thank you for your FYC. --LLcentury (talk) 13:00, 24 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hey! I've added a restoration, and also pointed out the text on the image that shows the movies were in colour. Could you have another look? Cheers! Adam Cuerden ^(talk)_{Has about 6.9% of all FPs} 04:00, 31 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

	Neat person award
	Your account was so neat, that I made a Wikipedia account of my own! Duxable (talk) 22:20, 29 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Janke, The image in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Super_8_film#/media/File:8mm_and_super8.png has many dimensions that are incorrect. The image states that "Sizes taken from various (inconsistent) sources - if you have better numbers - please drop a note on my source page." I am new to Wikipedia and I have the actual numbers that should be in the images.

My name is John C Miller and I work at Eastman Kodak Company, I also Chair the SMPTE 20F Film Applications Committee. I was asked by someone in Japan about the dimensions shown in the image as they do not match SMPTE or ISO standards. The dimensional data in this image is incorrect. Could you make corrections to it?

Super 8 and Regular 8 Film Width 7.98 mm, (.314")

Super 8 Image Height 4.14mm, (0.163")

8mm Image Height 3.68mm, (0.145") 8mm Image Width 4.88mm, (.192")

You can contact me at john.c.miller@kodak.com. I have modified the file with corrections but as I was not the originator did not upload it to you. I would be happy to provide it to you if you e-mail me.

I've uploaded a new version. See what you think! Adam Cuerden ^(talk)_{Has about 7.3% of all FPs}

Much appreciated! I believe I recognize your name from some good corrections you made to articles in the same field, so thanks for those too. I had not really looked into the barnstar concept before, but I'll keep it in mind.

Oops, although I didn't mind keeping the Muybridge name, Wikipedia automatically applied it with some saved changes after I added some info about his cousin. My main concern with changing his name to Muybridge in here, is related to that mention of the iron business with Sir Henry in 1862. There's a very slight chance that this news item concerned another Edward Muygridge. So to be sure that stated information is totally correct, it made sense to use the name as written in the original sources. Most other mentions of the name Muygridge have been confirmed to be about the person who later changed his name to Muybridge, but then I believe it's weird to claim that Muybridge used the new name "Muybridge". However, many people will probably prefer his later name and keep changing it. So, I won't insist on what I believe to be a more accurate and sensible text, but neither will I now make the effort to put back all the "Muybridges".

I wouldn't mind seeing your Muybridge documentary, but is it in Finnish? I'm afraid I can't even remember the three or four Finnish words I ever learned. Joortje1 (talk) 20:26, 6 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Just watched it! Very entertaining. I also liked the commercial animation reel on the same channel and recognized the claymation chicken from wikipedia. Nice work. Personally, I have not made any original animation worth mentioning, but have made video versions of many historical stroboscopic discs and other pre-cinema animations for Magical Motion Museum, including a Muybridge video that contains all the horse series from 1878-79. I think the image quality is much better than most Muybridge animations that I've seen so far: see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oGRTEjTzgBc.Joortje1 (talk) 21:45, 6 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi! Thank you for warning me about the errors in the article's table. I included more information. If you see more errors in the article, you can correct it yourself and if you have doubts about my work you can ask me!--Isinbill (talk) 18:40, 5 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

See how that looks. I'll admit I'm way better with people than buildings when it comes to rotation issues. Adam Cuerden ^(talk)_{Has about 7.4% of all FPs} 06:35, 29 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Good point! That info should (and will) be there, but for the time being, I'll leave it and then update when it is updated. (If I can remember! :)) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Quiksteppe (talk • contribs) 17:43, 23 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, on User talk:Blackraider77, I edited the page and seem to have "hijacked" the warning template from your earlier post, which now introduces itself by my name :P I think you will have to edit the post yourself to fix it. Sorry about that.

Any interest in updating Animation World Network ? see also Draft:Ron Diamond. I tried to clean up William Moritz. Any interest in Center for Visual Music in Los Angeles ? .... 0mtwb9gd5wx (talk) 07:53, 20 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Janke, I have to ask if you yourself had grown the lichen in the shape of Mickey Mouse. I’m an artist with an interest in growing coloured lichen on granite sculptures and when I saw your picture I thought that’s it! Would you care to share at thoughts or tips on lichen cultivation? 😀 I don’t have a wiki account so you may contact me on Instagram @fasterbymachines — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.153.151.197 (talk) 13:16, 30 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Sorry, I'm not on instagram. But I can tell you that the lichen has grown in that shape naturally - possibly encouraged by a dog or two... ;-) Did you see the 13 years later photo: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Lichen_Mickey_13_years_later.jpg - Best regards, --Janke | Talk 19:41, 30 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I know why you opposed my picture and I agree with your opposition now that I know it needs to be bigger. Is it at all possible to make the image bigger at all and if you can does it distort the image? ― Kaleeb18^Talk_Caleb 13:20, 2 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

In the interests of openness, I made a slight colour adjustment after you voted. It's pretty subtle, but I do think you should mention these things to voters. Adam Cuerden ^(talk)_{Has about 7.7% of all FPs} 14:03, 11 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Janke, I found this photo in this article. Very interesting artifact and tool from 1922. Do you think it qualifies for FP in this category? Bammesk (talk) 01:54, 15 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Janke,

This is to let you know that File:MultiplaneDemo.webm, a featured picture you uploaded, has been selected as the English Wikipedia's picture of the day (POTD) for September 10, 2022. A preview of the POTD is displayed below and can be edited at Template:POTD/2022-09-10. If you have any concerns, please place a message at Wikipedia talk:Picture of the day. Thank you! Adam Cuerden ^(talk)_{Has about 7.9% of all FPs} 12:24, 31 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

An article you recently created, Massive Monolithic Telescope, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. — rsjaffe 🗣️ 04:11, 2 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, hey, my dad was one of the people involved with putting two mirrors on one piece of glass for giant telescopes. Worked at the University of Tucson. Adam Cuerden ^(talk)_{Has about 8.1% of all FPs} 23:26, 30 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Looks good keep up the good work and I WILL SUPPORT! @Adam Cuerden@ Janke | Talk 21:54, 29 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Will probably give it another pass tonight, but I'm getting quite pleased now Adam Cuerden ^(talk)_{Has about 8.1% of all FPs} 22:00, 29 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Would it be possible to match the color to the one of Gilbert? Then they would be a matching pair... Janke | Talk 11:23, 30 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Eh, they're almost certainly different photographic processes given the times, so... Adam Cuerden ^(talk)_{Has about 8.1% of all FPs} 14:46, 30 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I have tweaked it a bit, though. They match a bit better in contrast now. Adam Cuerden ^(talk)_{Has about 8.1% of all FPs} 05:03, 1 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

So, I will need more time to work this, just not enough time to do what I want with the image since I might do something more creative with it rather than just perfect it as it is. How do I go about de-nominating it for the time being (I took it off the list)? I haven't yet nominated a picture, so I don't know the entire process - I did read what is in the project page. thank you for instructing me Radlrb (talk) 19:20, 10 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The reason why I added it is because it is used in the module. Feel free to change it to the actual colour. ValenciaThunderbolt (talk) 16:22, 3 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

By turning the cup, you can easily see the movement! The images on this cup show the first attempts of humans to create animation, and it is better to say this in the article
