I don't think "NNNpx" has any effect on thumbnailed pictures, but if it does, it's probably not a good effect. In non-thumbnailed, non-frames images, I think it sets either the exact, minimum, or maximum width that a large image will be scaled to. These days, with people using many different computers, tablets, phones, etc., with varying pixel densities, we do not want to force a pixel size on the reader.
Instead of using NNNpx, use upright=SCALINGFACTOR. See Help:Visual file markup/upright for details. davidwr/( talk)/( contribs) 23:24, 3 January 2016 (UTC)

Hello, Nvvchar -- I've pretty much finished copy-editing St. Paul's Cathedral, Kolkata. It's a nice article, and I enjoyed reading it. I just wanted to mention three things:
1) You'll see that I substituted some words with other words; sometimes, it's because there is a more accurate or colloquial word that I thought was better; other times, it's because I wanted to avoid the same word (like "built") appearing twice in the same sentence. Variety makes for good writing.
2) In the section St. Paul's Cathedral, Kolkata#History, in the second paragraph, is the following sentence:
There is something wrong with the first part of this sentence: "in 1819 by Bishop Middleton..." I could have changed it to make sense, but I thought perhaps you ought to check the source to be sure what was meant, and see what really occurred. Perhaps one of these would work:
Or something else if the source says something different.
I see from this quote from the source that it's "suggested", not "rejected". I'll correct that. Corinne ( talk) 03:03, 9 January 2016 (UTC) I decided to join the two sentences about Bishop Middleton. Would you say the sentence as I have written it is accurate? Corinne ( talk) 03:07, 9 January 2016 (UTC)
3) In the section St. Paul's Cathedral, Kolkata#Features, I noticed that you have mentioned Sir Edward Burne-Jones twice. The first time, you say he designed the West Window in 1880. The second time, a few sentences later, you say he designed the windows on the west side of the tower. I don't know if these are different windows, or the same window(s), as in the first sentence. If they are the same, the first sentence can be left out. If they are different windows, then the sentences can remain where they are, but the first one is the one that should have the link. Also, you will have to decide where you want to put the phrase, "a pre-Raphaelite master". I would think it would go with the first mention of the artist, wouldn't you?
Well, that's all. Corinne ( talk) 01:19, 9 January 2016 (UTC)

Hi Nvvchar, I just read your message at id.wiki. But sorry, I don't think I can get the free-licensed photo of Detty Kurnia. Honestly, this is the first time I heard her name, her genre actually is not very popular in Indonesia, doesn't mean to disregard her role as traditional pop music singer, but that means that only some few people who know her and I don't think those people love (or even know how) to take the picture of their idol and upload it to their social media account (I believe this way is easier to get someone's photo by directly ask the uploader of the photo). I just checked google and found only her photos for her album covers that I believe is not free-licensed. I think id.wiki's policy permits us to upload low-resolution album cover but it may be used only for id.wiki. So how is it? If you want to talk to me futher, please write on my id.wiki's user talk page :) . I often don't open my en.wiki's account and maybe it take a long time for me to realize if someone just left a message for me in my en.wiki's account. And sorry that I am not helpful at all.
