==== Wikimedia Commons summary data ====

* prepare in advance
** File (local name of file to upload):
** Title (becomes filename) (sentence case, use spaces):
** Description (with translations):
** Date (default from photograph timestamp):
** Source (original work): Own work
** Source (derived work): This media and Original work — see: <nowiki>file:Classification of energy system models.svg</nowiki>
** Author (default from login): Robbie Morrison ([[User:RobbieIanMorrison|RobbieIanMorrison]])
** Camera location (default is GPS data, else manually edit using OpenStreetMaps information, optionally orientation data too):
** Other comments (set after the Summary template):
** Categories (important):

==== Photographs ====

* [[Freedom of panorama]] — photographing of public buildings, monuments, and public art, excludes Sweden
* [[Personality rights]] — right of an individual to control the commercial and other use of their name, image, likeness, or similar
* Exif metadata
** should edit <code>ImageDescription</code> and <code>Artist</code> and perhaps <code>Copyright</code> meta-information using Gimp 2.9.4+ (unstable) or ExifTool
** [[ExifTool]]
** [https://www.linux.com/news/how-add-metadata-digital-pictures-command-line How to add metadata to digital pictures from the command line]
** [http://owl.phy.queensu.ca/~phil/exiftool/ ExifTool website]{{dot}} [http://owl.phy.queensu.ca/~phil/exiftool/examples.html ExifTool examples]

* To modify the image description, artist, and copyright fields:
** ExifTool automatically backs up the JPG file with <tt>_original</tt> appended
** the <code>-m</code> or {{nowrap|<code>-IgnoreMinor Errors</code>}} option is required because Gimp has corrupted the Nikon PreviewIFD preview image ([http://u88.n24.queensu.ca/exiftool/forum/index.php?topic=5792.0 bug report])
** to process {{mono|image.jpg}}, edit and save the following file as {{color|orangered|{{mono|image.metadata}}}} and then action it using: <code>$ bash -e image.metadata</code>

<pre style="font-size: 85%">
# $ bash -e <filename>
# this file does not need the execute permission set
# exiftool appends "_original" to the input file

* To view all tags from the Exif group with their current values:

<pre style="font-size: 85%">
$ exiftool test.jpg
</pre>

* To check GPS and timestamp data:

<pre style="font-size: 85%">
$ exiftool test.jpg | grep GPS
$ exiftool test.jpg | grep Time
$ exiftool test.jpg | grep "Date/Time Original\|GPS Date/Time"
</pre>

* [https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/converter.html Convert earlier timestamps] — between UMT and local time

** increment counter for each upload
* good practice
** set background color (only applies to PNG export): File {{arrow}} Document Properties {{arrow}} Background Color {{arrow}} R: 255 G: 255 B: 255 A: 255
** a transparent background is usually fine unless you need a color other than white ([[commons:Help:SVG]] and search for "transparent background")
** do not use flowed text
** check with [[rsvg]] converter: <code>rsvg --format=png diagram.svg temp.png</code> and <code>eog temp.png &</code>
** check from firefox: file:///home/robbie/synk/wikipedia/graphics/diagram.svg ('''easiest''' using the file manager)
** check with [[commons:commons:Commons SVG Checker|Commons SVG Checker]] (but local rsvg is better)
* strategies (choose one)
# choose a Wikimedia font: including [[Liberation Serif]], [[Liberation Sans]], [[Liberation Mono]], [[DejaVu Sans]] (wider)
# group text, copy to another layer and convert to paths, hide prior layer
# simply remove fonts: Path {{arrow}} Object to Path
* exported PNG (for secondary uses, not for upload to Wikimedia Commons)
** [http://libre-software.net/edit-metadata-exiftool/ edit metadata with ExifTool] — special recommendations for Creative Commons licenses
** bug in Inkscape 0.91 prevents use of Creative Commons 4.0 (no work around except to edit the PNG)
** examine metadata using ImageMagick (identify) or ExifTool (preferred):

** {{small|Reliability and independence are separate attributes of sources. A source may be reliable but not independent, while another source may be independent but not reliable. When a given topic has received significant coverage in published sources that are both reliable and independent, then the topic is considered notable, and is probably eligible for a Wikipedia article. Once notability has been established, then basic non-controversial details can be filled in using primary (non-independent) sources. In the case of an article about a corporation, for example, their founding date, headquarters location and CEO's name might be referenced to their website. But their website or other primary source cannot be used for evaluative statements. A Wikipedia article should be written from the [[WP:NPOV|neutral point of view]], and should bear no resemblance to a company website or marketing brochure, though many editors try to write articles that way.}}

{{AFC comment|1=I'm not sure that ''open source'' energy system models are a notable sub-group of energy system models.  In fact, there is currently (as of 02:45, 28 March 2013 (UTC)) no article called [[energy system models]] in Wikipedia, although the topic may be covered under a different name or as a section in another article.

This draft also has writing-style issues.  Simply put, it's written more like a magazine article or an "introduction to the topic" lesson one might see in a college or continuing-education course than an encyclopedia article.

I am going to decline this with the hopes that the author will see if the topic of energy system models is already covered in Wikipedia and if not, determine if the topic meets Wikipedia's [[WP:NOTABILITY|notability]] requirements.  If the topic is notable and missing, I hope he writes an article about it.
