File anish gawande

hello so regarding the file ive put reference to where it came from RJ9510 (talk) 18:33, 17 September 2026 (UTC)Reply

@RJ9510: Hi, You do not have the permission to copy these files, so they are copyright violations. Please read COM:L. Thanks, Yann (talk) 18:36, 17 September 2026 (UTC)Reply

User:Chaves08

Hi Yann. Wpuld you mind taking a look at Special:ListFiles/Chaves08 when you have the time? All of this user's uploads are being claimed as "own work" but it's almost certain they're not; the movie posters might have enetered into the public domain by now, but they could have copyright notices on them (can't really see cause the print is too small). -- Marchjuly (talk) 21:45, 17 September 2026 (UTC)Reply

Thank you for taking a look at these. -- Marchjuly (talk) 20:38, 18 September 2026 (UTC)Reply

Message from 27 is the best number

A bunch of the files you tagged for deletion are SVG adaptations of already-existing files. In those cases, I provided a link to the original image. I hope this clarifies things. 27 is the best number (talk) 01:54, 18 September 2026 (UTC)Reply

@27 is the best number: Yes, but the license is wrong. These are complex enough to have a copyright. Yann (talk) 05:18, 18 September 2026 (UTC)Reply

Help desk

Hi, I saw you reverted my post, hopefully that was an error. I welcome any corrections to my answer, as the question is complicated. TSventon (talk) 16:22, 19 September 2026 (UTC)Reply

@TSventon: Yes, that was a misclick. Sorry. Yann (talk) 07:45, 21 September 2026 (UTC)Reply

File:Reverend Insanity Cover.jpg

Hi Yann. Could you take a look at File:Reverend Insanity Cover.jpg? I tagged it with {{npd}}, but it seems like a copyvio per COM:Fan art based on File:Original Reverend Insanity Cover.jpg (also likely a copyvio) and what the uploader posted at en:WP:MCQ#Local non-free upload needed — book cover stuck in Commons no-license purgatory asking that the same image be uploaded locally to English Wikipedia as a non-free book cover. -- Marchjuly (talk) 07:20, 24 September 2026 (UTC)Reply

✓ Done The first file was already deleted. I deleted the second one, and warned the uploader. Yann (talk) 14:13, 24 September 2026 (UTC)Reply

Two mistakes

Hello. The topic Commons:Undeletion_requests/Archive/2026-09#Files_uploaded_by_David_Paitschadse has already been archived. Please fix File:Памятник императору Александру II.jpg (Another file got overwritten. It needs to be recovered under a different name.) and File:Александр 2.jpg (the reupload needs to be removed). Insider (talk) 08:38, 25 September 2026 (UTC)Reply

@Insider: The first file is already fixed. Please see File:Monument to Alexander II of Russia (Samara).jpg. Sorry, I didn't have the time to do it myself. The second is fixed now. Yann (talk) 16:32, 25 September 2026 (UTC)Reply
Thanks a lot! One more amendment (just in case it comes in handy somewhere down the line for situations like this). Insider (talk) 17:48, 25 September 2026 (UTC)Reply

Hello, this user came to add remove what you added, stating : "no longer needed" on a move page I suggested with the criterion and source

https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=File:An_igbo_woman_in_Ichafu_headdress.jpg&diff=prev&oldid=1280411788


You added something, then I saw that the user came to remove it giving a bogus reason. This is the same user gatekeeping certain pages that I complained about. This seems like am attempt to block cited content or edits from coming through.

https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=File:An_igbo_woman_in_Ichafu_headdress.jpg&diff=prev&oldid=1280416116

I've gone to the talk page now and addressed the misinformation there. Please check it out. Dolpina (talk) 02:53, 26 September 2026 (UTC)Reply

I think next time you should properly check the edit first before laying accusations as this is bad faith. I added a {{notice}} tag to the image, informing file movers to see the talk page and then removed it with edit summary of "no longer needed". Wmbata ~Nwa Mbata~ (talk) 06:24, 26 September 2026 (UTC)Reply
@Dolpina: Since there is a disagreement, please get a consensus. Yann (talk) 08:47, 26 September 2026 (UTC)Reply
Hello, did you see what I tagged you in, or my ten citations? Whom am I to get the concensus with? Dolpina (talk) 13:46, 26 September 2026 (UTC)Reply
I don't care what is the decision. Yann (talk) 19:32, 26 September 2026 (UTC)Reply

User:Rosewoodheritage

Hi. How did you know this account, which hasn't been active for 9 years, is a sock of AXXXXK? NguoiDungKhongDinhDanh 11:02, 26 September 2026 (UTC)Reply

See Category:Sockpuppets of AXXXXK. Yann (talk) 19:31, 26 September 2026 (UTC)Reply
I'm afraid that doesn't explain anything at all. How can this account be associated with another of AXXXXK's socks, behaviourally or otherwise (for example, via checkuser data)? I see User:Rosewoodat5th was blocked as well, even though it was created in 2012 while zh:WP:LTA:AXXXXK says this LTA has only been active since 2020. NguoiDungKhongDinhDanh 11:56, 27 September 2026 (UTC)Reply
Note that these are different from User:Rosewoodat6th, which was created only 4 months ago and blocked on enwiki by a CU+. NguoiDungKhongDinhDanh 11:58, 27 September 2026 (UTC)Reply
Similarity of username of quite sufficient, isn't? Yann (talk) 16:31, 27 September 2026 (UTC)Reply
Would you consider blocking me then, if someone were to create an account named NguoiDungKhongDinhDanh2 today? Similar usernames don't always signify sockpuppetry. In this case, the similarity between Rosewoodheritage and Rosewoodat5th is a coincidence, while that between Rosewoodat5th and Rosewoodat6th is due to an impersonation attempt.
Please unblock Rosewoodheritage and Rosewoodat5th; there are no evidences that they are sockpuppets.
NguoiDungKhongDinhDanh 16:47, 28 September 2026 (UTC)Reply
OK, I am submitting a block review on AN, and will follow the consensus. Thanks, Yann (talk) 16:56, 28 September 2026 (UTC)Reply

Copyvio

Hi

File:Mohamed Chaouki.jpg seems to have been uploaded from Facebook and YouTube official accounts of the politician but when we click over the link, the photo have been changed. I have only such proof. Panam2014 (talk) 19:09, 28 September 2026 (UTC)Reply

Thank you. And the other attempted to remove the tags. Panam2014 (talk) 19:57, 28 September 2026 (UTC)Reply
Finally, I blocked this user for a week, and deleted a few copyvios. Yann (talk) 14:27, 29 September 2026 (UTC)Reply

Unjustified and unfounded removal of Images

Hello there, I (frmrly rgqpbc on wikipedia) contact you on the regard on Images you deleted from this site on the premise of "Copyright violation". The images in question are: Emblema_SSP_Puebla.jpg SSC_Puebla.png

This images are legally protected for the use I gave them, according to Article 14 of the Mexican IP law, all State flags, shields, emblems, logos of ANY federal, state or municipal program ARE NOT protected by copyright, and may be freely used for academic texts (such as the one where they had been placed) Under current law the logos may not be used to impersonate a government authority, which was not the case.

The images will be re-added. Thanks for your time, I would hope the work of others is not damaged this time.

@Pic scraperwww: , Hi, I didn't, yet, delete any image uploaded by this account, but you files you have uploaded do not have any source and valid license. Please read COM:L before uploading anything else, or you might be blocked. Also do you have another account? Yann (talk) 15:07, 30 September 2026 (UTC)Reply

Requesting overwrite permission for c:File:Ethiopian Civil War (2020-present).svg

Hi, I was just about to update this map based on the ongoing w:2026 Ethiopian offensive, when I noticed that you had fully protected it earlier this year. Could you allow me to overwrite this file, or remove the full protection so that I can update it? Thanks. Ecrusized (talk) 06:57, 2 October 2026 (UTC)Reply

@Ecrusized: OK, done. Yann (talk) 11:10, 2 October 2026 (UTC)Reply
Ethiopia map upload error
Thanks but something else appears to be protected in the file, I get the following error while trying to overwrite it. Ecrusized (talk) 13:18, 2 October 2026 (UTC)Reply
@Ecrusized: Ah yes, I forgot one protection. Yann (talk) 13:20, 2 October 2026 (UTC)Reply
I tried again but the same error message still pops up. It might be bot protected because its placed on the front page of one of the Wikis. Ecrusized (talk) 13:24, 2 October 2026 (UTC)Reply
@Ecrusized: In that case, I can't help. You should upload a separate file, which then can be merged. Yann (talk) 13:27, 2 October 2026 (UTC)Reply
Could you overwrite it with this file? I uploaded it here:
