Continues to (re-)upload copyvios after final warning. --bjh21 (talk) 17:28, 20 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

✓ Done Blocked for 1 week. Bastique ☎ let's talk! 17:39, 20 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Inaporpite content

File:SQL - DELETE.jpg is Inaporpite. They kept posting more Inaporpite content. Wikan Boy 123 (talk) 02:43, 21 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Convenience link: File:SQL - DELETE.jpg. Certainly NSFW. Not sure whether it is in or out of scope. Certainly not a good name for the file (would not lead you to expect nudity). Commons "is not censored," which is to say that if it is considered in scope, then nudity as such is not a reason to delete it. - Jmabel ! talk 03:36, 21 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
would you be opposed to a rule against nominating Exey Pantelees photos for deletion cuz this getting tiring Trade (talk) 17:00, 21 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
As for your speedy deletion request on the basis that it is a copyvio: it is appropriately licensed in Flickr, and is certainly consistent enough with the account's other content to strongly suggest that the license is legitimate. - Jmabel ! talk 03:40, 21 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
However, I will say that at a quick look, User:Jim Bangs uploads all appear to be highly sexualized NSFW images of women that are at best questionably in scope. - Jmabel ! talk 03:41, 21 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hmm, I was somewhat bold and removed all of the deletion requesting tags; the licensing and copyright related things as misplaced (I checked the source Flickr stream: the motifs and the EXIF / camera equipment were consistent with a legitimate licensing) and the standard DR per COM:SNOW as the given rationale was already discussed and refuted. A COM:SCOPE-based DR would be a totally legitimate standard editorial process, though (but I would be rather tending towards "in scope"). Regards, Grand-Duc (talk) 03:55, 21 December 2024 (UTC) PS. I also did a rename: File:NSFW - nude woman with SQL - DELETE pun.jpg. GD[reply]
That was not a valid rename request, no point in renaming. Bedivere (talk) 19:12, 21 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The main motif is a nude woman. Would you expect that behind the original name "SQL - DELETE.jpg", Bedivere?! The COM:FR#FR2 criterion for removing ambiguity is fitting, I think. Regards, Grand-Duc (talk) 19:22, 21 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Introducing the file with NSFW is not okay IMO. I've refitted the title. Bedivere (talk) 19:26, 21 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
This image is from the "Geekography" image set, basically all of which have been nominated for deletion and kept multiple times. There's a bit more information, and a long list of past deletion discussions, on the category page I linked. I agree that these images are, at best, only marginally in scope... but there are other hills to die on. Omphalographer (talk) 05:24, 21 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
This particular image is used on a Russian Wikinews article, so that makes it in scope. Bedivere (talk) 05:40, 21 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
But that would violate the WikiNews:Policy I think. Wikan Boy 123 (talk) 06:29, 21 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nope, it doesn't. Bedivere (talk) 19:05, 21 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

✓ Done. Wikan Boy is blocked and I declined unblock request. Taivo (talk) 09:45, 21 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I've also closed their deletion requests, pure trolling. Bedivere (talk) 19:11, 21 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Request Indefinite full-protection for User:Jobeyub

Rationale: Sadece öğrenmek Jobeyub (talk) 07:08, 25 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Jobeyub: Perhaps you can start your öğrenmek by learning not to make frivolous requests of the administrators. - Jmabel ! talk 07:33, 25 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Pinging @Kadı, who should probably have a look at the activity of this account. - Jmabel ! talk 07:43, 25 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
