| == Stamp image uploads == | |||
| Is there a standard file naming format for images of stamps uploaded to WP? I have a few scans that I'd like to use to illustrate some of the articles I've been writing as a part of ], but don't want to just give the images any old name. | |||
| If there isn't one already, perhaps something like <tt>Stamp_XXXXX_999999.jpg</tt> where XXXXX is the issuing country name (which would expand to as long as is needed for the country name) and 999999 is the Scott catalog number (including leading zeros). For example, <tt>Stamp_United_States_B00001.jpg</tt> would be the filename for the first US semipostal for breast cancer research, while <tt>Stamp_Prince_Edward_Island_000015.jpg</tt> would be the filename for Scott number 15 of stamps issued by PEI. I mention Scott numbers only because that's the set of catalogs that I've got handy and it provides a handy example. We could include the catalog name in the filename, but that seems a bit much. | |||
| Thoughts? ] 22:42, Jun 2, 2005 (UTC) | |||
| :The format I've been using is "Stamp ''country'' ''year'' ''denomination'' ''disambig''.jpg". Year and denomination alone is sufficient to uniquely identify a large number of the world's stamps, and the disambig can be something like "red" or "crown watermark" or "Robert Goddard". Scott is not used so much outside the US nor do they list every stamp ever issued, plus their number system is copyrighted and they go after anyone who seems like a threat, such as, say, a large repository of free philatelic information... See on commons for a large collection of examples. ] 12:49, 26 August 2005 (UTC) | |||

This has been unreferenced for over 15 years. If it's notable, then find and add reliable sources. If not, then perhaps it can be merged or discussed at WP:AfD. The German language article is also essentially unsourced. Bearian (talk) 05:30, 14 January 2025 (UTC)
