Re: [Wikimedia-l] Astrophoto Contest

2019-10-23 Thread Cornelius Kibelka
Hi Toni,

great to hear! Just to clarify, because I didn't really get it: The scope
and goal of the contest is to take (astronomical) photos of the sky and its
luminaries, is that correct?

Cheers
Cornelius

Re: [Wikimedia-l] [GLAM] Free content by tv broadcaster ZDF

2019-10-23 Thread
The five available videos have been re-encoded to webm (mp4 is a
non-free format) and released on Wikimedia Commons.[1] Some are
already in use on the German Wikipedia.[2]

If ZDF copied their CC-BY videos to YouTube, there are several tools
available that can assist mass uploading and encoding from YouTube.

There is a convenient system for adding multiple language text
captions to videos on Commons, perhaps a volunteer might want to make
these more accessible this way?[3]

Re: [Wikimedia-l] Astrophoto Contest

2019-10-23 Thread Toni Ristovski
Hi Cornelius,

So, main aim of this contest is images from astronomical bodies, objects,
phenomena, celestial events and detailed images of night sky. I hope that I
explained this more clearly.

Best,
Toni
