Description Hunter Peress 2004-10-10 08:36:38 UTC

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Hfem.png   

the sizes are 1200 bytes, the image is clearly not this.

Comment 1 Brion Vibber 2004-10-10 08:47:52 UTC

Well, that's fairly odd. The actual file is a 100kb JPEG image:

-rw-r--r--    1 apache   apache     105542 Sep 17 17:21 Hfem.png
Hfem.png: JPEG image data, JFIF standard 1.02, resolution (DPI), 96 x 96

I don't see a notice in the upload log either (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Upload_log_archive/September_2004_(1)) however 
it's possible a database hiccup caused the database updates to fail while the actual file upload went through. Odd to upload a JPEG as 
a .png file though.

Comment 2 Hunter Peress 2004-10-10 08:50:30 UTC

this is not the correct image. the correct image is indeed 1200~ bytes and is a png

Comment 3 Brion Vibber 2004-10-10 08:51:29 UTC

Also, both listed images appear archived, which seems consistent with an upload through the wiki without the database being 
updated:
-rw-r--r--    1 apache   wikidev      1259 Nov 21  2003 archive/a/aa/20031121090320!Hfem.png
-rw-r--r--    1 apache   wikidev      1292 Nov 21  2003 archive/a/aa/20040917172120!Hfem.png

Comment 4 Brion Vibber 2008-12-30 02:42:55 UTC

Last update was four years ago... assuming this is either an ancient hiccup or an ancient bug since fixed. Alternately, reopen if new instances surface.
