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! :-/
YES!! But I got so
slow and incompetent feedback on wikimedia that
I frustrated ignored this issue. :-(

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
