Big videos

Hi, If you want to upload big videos, you can try File:Towards the Light (1919) by Holger-Madsen.webm. It is 3.78 GB, and it failed for me both on V2C and with Chunked Uploads. Thanks, Yann (talk) 00:26, 15 March 2024 (UTC)

@Yann: Uploading to File:Holger Madsen - Towards The Light (Mod Lyset) 1919 4K Vintage Movie ENG DANSK.webm, please redirect the link you posted above and attend to the licensing when finished. Sadly, we don't get % progress while uploading. Sorry about the extra uploads, you didn't follow up on your reports at Commons talk:Video2commons and I didn't search for the URLs before starting.   — 🇺🇦Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 05:07, 15 March 2024 (UTC)

Question about Category

Hi Jeff G, this new category on the English Wiki has been nominated for deletion. Most users say the category is not WP:DEFINING. Do you have suggestions how to make it defining? -Artanisen (talk) 13:45, 22 March 2024 (UTC)

@Artanisen: No, sorry.   — 🇺🇦Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 15:08, 22 March 2024 (UTC)
