Hi
perfect multiple of 7:4.
Is there something sacred about the ratio that means anything less than perfection is unacceptable?
No. But 800 : 457 is no multiple of 7 : 4 and a "perfect multiple" is nonsense wording (or has a total different meaning in number theory) because we consider only integers. :)
There are some *real* issues with the rendering on Commons -- especially SVGs -- and it looks like the thumbnail on
*real* issues are also issues which causes other others to complain at you! :-/
http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Flag_of_Iran.svg from "20:14, 21 June 2012" (http://hexm.de/jg) shows the real issue here.
YES!! But I got so slow and incompetent feedback on wikimedia that I frustrated ignored this issue. :-( See: URL http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Administrators%27_noticeboard/Bloc... urgent help
After the problem is fixed on the ImageMagick side, you need to get Wikimedia Operations to deploy the fixed code.
Me? I'm not an admin and I don't know to whom I must talk.
I've reported this to the ImageMagick devs (http://hexm.de/jh). Let's see what their response is before we blame "Wikimedia Politics".
Mark.
Thanks for your interest, but we should continue (if necessary this discussion) on the mailing-list. Maybe you could send also a copy of your and my current email to the mailing-list if you agree.
Thanks for support Achim
