The Graphics Lab is a project to improve the graphical content of the Wikimedia projects. Requests for image improvements can be added to the workshop pages: Illustrations, Photographs and Maps. For questions or suggestions one can use the talk pages: Talk:Graphics Lab, Talk:Illustrations, Talk:Photographs and Talk:Maps.
This specific page is the discussion page for the Illustration workshop. Any comments or questions about this specific workshop may be made here. Note that requests for image improvement, etc. do not belong here but should go on the main requests page
This is the talk page for discussing improvements to the Graphics Lab/Illustration workshop page. |

I think the Wikipedia page on plastic bullets would be improved by a line illustration showing the shape and dimensions of plastic bullets used by Israeli riot control forces, illustrated in figure one of this academic paper and described on page 381 (The plastic bullet (Fig. 1) is a 5.62 mm missile, 1.5 cm long):

I can't do the job myself. Assuming that such a drawing can be prepared based on that source without falling foul of any restrictions, where and how should I ask for someone's assistance?

@Snubcube: Re: Wikipedia:Graphics Lab/Illustration workshop/Archive/Jul 2016#Interference theory - yes, those are exactly right! I added them to Decay theory. Many thanks, and apologies for the long delay in checking on that request. -- Beland (talk) 23:11, 17 March 2023 (UTC)
Hi there! I've been a wikigrpahist for some months now. I thought about a tool to find needed images in a Wikiproject and also to find low resolution images needing improvements.
I called it Visual Content Assessment Tool, or simply VCAT.
A working version of VCAT can be found at VCAT-dashboard, you can try it using one of the samples of data I already extracted, or you can extract data for any Wikiproject using the extraction tool, a command line tool I created for this purpose.
Some of the actions you can do with this tool are:
What do you think? Could it be a useful tool? MingoBerlingo (talk) 15:06, 26 July 2023 (UTC)
E.g. If I have a 100x100 px image, and want to reduce it to 20x20 px without any change in appearance. (Apart maybe from stroke width, which I can set manually in Inkscape.) It's helpful to have all images in a series set to the same size, line weight, etc., for display but especially when merging them into new images.
I understand 'scale' [under 'transform'], 'fit canvas to object size', etc. in Inkscape, but those will ruin the alignment of the object on the canvass.
If some program other than Inkscape could do this in bulk, that would be even better. I could then clean up the stroke width if I needed to in Inkscape.
BTW, I'm on Linux.
