I created an image for Morse code. Specifically a diagram. Once I uploaded the image and referenced it in the article, I discovered I had a couple of mistakes in the image which I wanted to correct. I corrected them, prepared an new image and proceeded to upload it.

From what I read in uploading images all I had to do is upload the new version using the same wiki image name. Unfortunately, the system gave me a warning and stopped me from uploading: A file with this name exists already, and cannot be overwritten. Please go back and upload this file under a new name. I could not figure it out so I uploaded another image until this gets sorted out. While I was at it, I uploaded a third image which contains the final (I hope) changes.

The questions I am hoping to get some help with, is strict sequence, are:

Can anyone suggest why the system was stopping me from updating my image?
Can anyone suggest how can I update the first image with a corrected PNG (eg. the one from the third image)?
Can anyone suggest how can I then delete the second and third images?

Line-up of suspects
File:Original image with mistakes (now deleted)
File:Intermediate corrected image but effective duplicate (now deleted)
Image 3: Final corrected image but effective triplicate (not any more, previous updates deleted)

Thanks

I have now added the db-author template to the first and second images to qualify them for speedy deletion, according to what I could I could make out from the deletion instructions. Waiting to see if they get nuked. Aris00 20:27, 23 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion worked! The duplicates have been eliminated. Will not bother much more with this. Lesson learned: when there are image updates, just add the update as a new image then delete the old images when finished. Aris00 10:31, 24 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Aris00, I'd love to use your Morse code tree for a CNC project as a gift for a friend. Would it be possible for you to make an SVG available or send it to me? Jinkside (talk) 19:02, 15 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Jinkside, I've uploaded an SVG version of this image; see File:Morse_code_tree3.svg

(Still) a little mistake?[edit]

Hello, I think there is one little mistake in this (apart from that in my opinion fantastic, clearly arranged and very helpful) Morse code tree, isn't it? '-.--.' leads to 'Ĥ' and '-.--.-' leads to '(' and ')'. But I think '-.--.' means '(' and '-.--.-' means ')'. At https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Morse_code#O I found '----' media:CH, Ĥ, Š Morse Code.oga. What do you think? But I don't know how to change it. Thanks in advance for your help.
