== Camerapedia nostalgia ==
 +
It's time to look back.
 +
 +
The website was founded by [[User:Lbstone]] on Oct. 27, 2004; here is the [http://camera-wiki.org/wiki?title=Main_Page&oldid=2 first] of [http://camera-wiki.org/wiki?title=Special:Contributions&limit=500&target=Lbstone his edits].
 +
 +
I joined on Sep. 18, 2005; here is [http://camera-wiki.org/wiki?title=Contax_(Yashica/Kyocera)&diff=prev&oldid=2333 my first edit] and [http://camera-wiki.org/wiki?title=Main_Page&diff=prev&oldid=2527 my first contri to the Main Page].
 +
 +
Only a few people will remember the condition of the website at the time; there were less than 100,000 hits to the Main Page (now [http://camera-wiki.org/wiki/Special:PopularPages 1,355,293]).
 +
 +
Since then, I've made [http://camera-wiki.org/wiki?title=Special:Contributions&limit=5000&target=Rebollo+fr 43,174 edits] out of a grand total of [http://camera-wiki.org/wiki/Special:Statistics 96,728]. I wonder how many words or [http://camera-wiki.org/wiki/Special:LongPages bytes] that makes.
 +
 +
Here were a few high points of my time here:
 +
* Started [http://camera-wiki.org/wiki?title=Category:Cameras&action=history the Category system] on Dec. 16, 2005;
 +
* Blocked my first vandal on Mar. 9, 2006 and blocked [http://camera-wiki.org/wiki?title=Special:BlockList&limit=500 many more since];
 +
* Joined by [[User:U._kulick|U. kulick]] on [http://camera-wiki.org/wiki?title=Minolta_SR-1&oldid=12824 Apr. 15, 2006], who has since made [http://camera-wiki.org/wiki?title=Special:Contributions&limit=5000&target=U.+kulick 10,000 to 15,000 edits] and managed the [http://www.flickr.com/groups/camerapedia/ Flickr pool];
 +
* Welcomed [[User:Hoary|Hoary]] on [http://camera-wiki.org/wiki?title=Talk:Canon&diff=next&oldid=14934 May 6, 2006], who later made [http://camera-wiki.org/wiki?title=Special:Contributions&limit=1000&target=Hoary 3,000 to 4,000 contris] and helped making important admin decisions;
 +
* Participated in the only documented [http://camera-wiki.org/wiki?title=Camera-wiki.org:Community_discussions&oldid=21101#Sources_and_bibliography Camerapedia street demonstration], that successfully [http://camera-wiki.org/wiki?title=Camera-wiki.org:Community_discussions&diff=prev&oldid=21105 moved the authorities] into upgrading to Mediawiki 1.6;
 +
* Encouraged by this success, asked for [http://camera-wiki.org/wiki/Camera-wiki.org:Community_discussions/Archive02#Parser_extension another technical favour] that had to wait for four years;
 +
* Made the [http://camera-wiki.org/wiki?title=Main_Page/Draft&action=history draft for the new main page] in August 2006, installed on [http://camera-wiki.org/wiki?title=Main_Page&diff=prev&oldid=26200 Sep. 10, 2006];
 +
* [http://camera-wiki.org/wiki?title=Template:Flickr_image&action=history Flickr image] template created by [[User:U._kulick|U. kulick]] in Aug. 2006, to make image insertion easier;
 +
* Took the decision to allow non-free images in [http://camera-wiki.org/wiki?title=Camera-wiki.org%3ACopyrights&action=historysubmit&diff=26597&oldid=23140 Sep. 2006], to make it easier to ask people to loan pictures for non-commercial use;
 +
* Participated in [http://camera-wiki.org/wiki/Camera-wiki.org:Community_discussions/Archive02#French_language_section Oct. 2006] in a [http://camera-wiki.org/wiki/Category:Page_en_français failed attempt] to make the site multilingual;
 +
* Created [[:Category:Image_rights|image right tags]] in Nov. 2007 and [http://camera-wiki.org/wiki?title=Camera-wiki.org:Adding_images&diff=prev&oldid=48715 encouraged] their use ever since;
 +
* Joined by [[User:Awcam|Awcam]] on [http://camera-wiki.org/wiki?title=Braun&diff=prev&oldid=53383 Feb. 28, 2008] for the first of [http://camera-wiki.org/wiki?title=Special:Contributions&limit=1000&target=Awcam 5,000 to 6,000 contris];
 +
* Amazed in Sep. 2008 by the first [http://camera-wiki.org/wiki?title=Gitzo&dir=prev&limit=100&action=history batch of edits] by [[User:GitzoCollector|GitzoCollector]], who has made [http://camera-wiki.org/wiki?title=Special:Contributions&limit=1000&target=GitzoCollector 2,000 to 3,000 others] but has just [http://camera-wiki.org/wiki?title=User:GitzoCollector&curid=12878&diff=96377&oldid=96195&rcid=92805 blanked his user page];
 +
* Tolerated to work under Mediawiki 1.6 when Wikipedia was at 1.16;
 +
* [http://camera-wiki.org/wiki?title=MediaWiki:Common.js&diff=prev&oldid=95222 Added] [http://camera-wiki.org/wiki?title=MediaWiki:Common.css&diff=prev&oldid=95221 new] [http://camera-wiki.org/wiki?title=Sandbox&diff=next&oldid=95228 collapsible box functionalities] in Dec. 2010, as soon as the site went out of prehistory;
 +
* Contributed [http://www.flickr.com/groups/camerapedia/pool/99204584@N00/ 5,359 elements] out of the [http://www.flickr.com/groups/camerapedia/pool/ 37,358] of the Flickr pool;
 +
* Bought kilograms of paper from Japan to share with the community;
 +
* Never cultivated any hope to make money out of this;
 +
* Always believed other participants had generous motivations;
 +
* Now I'm asking [[Camera-wiki.org:Community Discussions/Future of Camerapedia|questions about the future]].

Three laws:
 
* in the European Union, anonymous and pseudonymous works protected for 70 years after the date of publication (Directive 93/98/EEC)
 
* in Japan, anonymous and pseudonymous works protected for 70 years after the date of publication (Wikipedia's [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japan_copyright_law Japan copyright law]) and pictures published before 1969 protected for 10 years only (to be checked)
 
* in the USA, anything published before March 1, 1989 with no copyright notice ("©", "Copyright" or "Copr.") is in the public domain
 
Rule of the shorter term:
 
* applied by the EU and Japan: copyright protection ends when the copyright expires in the originating country; after 70 years it has expired in any case
 
Fair use:
 
* applied by the USA only: fair use is allowed
 
In short, we can consider public domain for the laws of all relevant countries all the documents dated 1936 and earlier. We can also consider public domain for the laws of all relevant countries all the Japanese documents dated 1956 and earlier.

Camerapedia nostalgia

It's time to look back.

The website was founded by User:Lbstone on Oct. 27, 2004; here is the first of his edits.

I joined on Sep. 18, 2005; here is my first edit and my first contri to the Main Page.

Only a few people will remember the condition of the website at the time; there were less than 100,000 hits to the Main Page (now 1,355,293).

Since then, I've made 43,174 edits out of a grand total of 96,728. I wonder how many words or bytes that makes.

Here were a few high points of my time here:

(Sorry for all those whose contribution was not cited. Big thanks to all the people who have participated to this collective work.)


The rest of the page is temporarily blanked.
