I have a much more informative userpage over on English Wikipedia: en:User:IagoQnsi.

Images photographed or created by me can be found in Category:Files by Hayden Schiff (you can also check out all the files I've uploaded, but be aware that the majority of them are created by other people -- see the description page for each individual file for attribution info). I also upload photos on Flickr.

My work on Commons

My interest in Commons is primarily as an archivist/organizer/curator/etc. I'm interested in finding images of interesting people/places/events, getting them freely licensed (if they weren't free already), and sorting them as usefully as possible. Here are some of the bigger projects I've worked on (and, in most cases, am still actively maintaining):

  • Category:Rooster Teeth. I've gathered most of the photos here, and have managed to get images of a huge portion of the staff and of the various panels and conventions Rooster Teeth has been part of. Particular thanks to Count3D, who freely licensed tons of his awesome photos that I asked for.
  • Category:Podcasts. This category (and the parent category Podcasting) were a bit of a mess; I added tons of organization categories, and podcasts can now be navigated by name, country, format, genre, language, and subject.
  • Category:Panel discussions. Prior to me jumping in, this category was mostly unused. I've been going through the images in categories for events such as San Diego Comic-Con and categorizing them as panel images. There's still a lot of work to be done here, but right now you can sort through a lot of panel images by year, by subject (i.e. TV show/film/web series/etc), by country, by event, and by organization. Ideally, the end goal would be to thoroughly sort ALL panel images -- i.e. categories like Panel discussions at the 2009 Comic-Con International would mostly be diffused into subcategories for each individual panel. But, this is gonna be a very slow, very long-term sort of project.
  • Category:PAX (event). I've gathered dozens or hundreds of images from various PAX events from Flickr and thoroughly categorized the images by event and subject matter.
  • Category:FC Cincinnati. I've taken a ton of the photos in this category.
