@M2904: Hi, and welcome. I am sorry to inform you that you have triggered Special:AbuseFilter/153 by trying to cross-wiki upload a smaller (<50KB or <5MP) jpg photo as a new user while leaving the summary intact. The photo you tried to upload is smaller, and you said it's your own work. Usually when someone uploads a smaller photo, it is a copyright violation taken from the web. If you took the photo yourself, please upload the full-size original of it, including EXIF metadata. If you did not take the photo, please see Commons:Licensing for why we can't accept it, and have the photographer send the photo and permission via OTRS with a carbon copy to you. If you change the summary or use our Upload Wizard instead, you should be able to avoid that filter.   — Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me 02:22, 2 April 2019 (UTC)

The filter worked as intended. As the message you received explained, the edit you tried to make did not consist of valid Timed Text. (I'm also not entirely convinced that closed captions for single-word pronunciation audio like File:En-us-Peru.ogg is particularly useful, but that may just be my ignorance, and it's not why your edit was prevented.) —LX (talk, contribs) 15:04, 3 April 2019 (UTC)

FellippeHeitor: The filter you encountered prevents low-resolution and PNG uploads from newly registered users using the particular upload form that you used. The reason for this filter is that such uploads overwhelmingly turn out to be copyright violations.
Did you actually personally create this logotype, as you claimed when attempting to upload it, and are you personally the copyright holder? If not, the filter worked as intended.
I see that QB64 is published under {{LGPL}}. If that license also covers the logotype, you may upload it directly to Commons with that license and correct source and authorship information. —LX (talk, contribs) 09:23, 8 April 2019 (UTC)

None of the filter log links you provided have any entries, and in any case, you cannot upload anything unless you are registered and logged in, which you are not.
But searching through all the entries in the log, I'm guessing you may be Devonrfox (talk • contribs • block log • filter log) who tried to upload File:Scottie E. Deubler.jpg (hist • logs • abuse log). If so, the filter you encountered prevents low-resolution uploads from newly registered users using the particular upload form that you used. The reason for this filter is that such uploads overwhelmingly turn out to be copyright violations.
Based what you write above, it seems like the assertions you made when you tried to upload it ("This is my own work" and "I attest that I own the copyright on this file") were untrue and that the filter worked as intended.
Permission to use an image as a headshot on a specific page is not sufficient for the image to be hosted on Commons. Content uploaded here must be free for anyone to use for any purpose. The only one who can provide a legitimate permission for that is the copyright holder. For photographs, that is normally the photographer rather than the subject. Please see Commons:OTRS for how to obtain and submit an appropriate permission statement. —LX (talk, contribs) 14:23, 10 April 2019 (UTC)

@Caiti angliss: Hi, and welcome. File:Lian Lunson.jpg is a legitimate depiction of how you looked earlier in your life, and is a matter of historical interest. You are welcome to upload a suitably licensed depiction of how you looked later in your life to replace the uses of it in multiple places. You are also welcome to try to have it deleted using Template:Delete, but such an attempt will probably be futile unless it has previously been replaced. However, you are not welcome to keep trying to removing parts of the page here, as such attempts are tantamount to vandalism.   — Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me 14:06, 14 April 2019 (UTC)

Report by Laurenellmarketing

Laurenellmarketing: The filter you encountered prevents low-resolution uploads from newly registered users using the particular upload form that you used. The reason for this filter is that such uploads overwhelmingly turn out to be copyright violations. If you did indeed personally create this image, the expectation is that you should be able to provide a full-resolution version rather than the 740×826 and 960×720 pixel miniature versions that you tried to upload. Those are resolutions typical of files downloaded from social media, which is a common source of copyright violations. Images from your own camera are typically much bigger.
Based on your username and edits, I would also recommend reading Commons:Guidance for paid editors. —LX (talk, contribs) 14:22, 15 April 2019 (UTC)

Another report by Laurenellmarketing

Swedeamerican1955: I see that your account has been renamed. Strangely, that has had the effect that it is no longer possible to see the filter log for your old username (which I could see yesterday), nor are the events shown in the log for your new username, but the entry is still there in the full log (isolated in the link here by narrowing down the time selection).
Anyway, the reason for the filter is still the same as previously. 2560×1920 (4.9 megapixels) is just below the 5 megapixel limit selected for this filter. If that really is the full resolution version, if you really did personally create the photograph yourself, and if the photograph is useful for educational purposes (which probably depends on if the subject meets the notability criteria for inclusion on English Wikipedia or equivalent on another Wikimedia project), then you may upload it directly here at Commons. —LX (talk, contribs) 08:43, 16 April 2019 (UTC)

Report by Serfife

Serfife: The filter you encountered prevents low-resolution and PNG format uploads from newly registered users using the particular upload form that you used. The reason for this filter is that such uploads overwhelmingly turn out to be copyright violations.
Unfortunately, because of the number of copyright violations, the filter has had to be defined quite broadly, meaning it sometimes stops uploads that aren't copyright violations. And unfortunately, instead of getting rid of the flawed upload form and directing users here to Commons (which the overwhelming majority of volunteers here would prefer), the Wikimedia Foundation thinks that leading users down this blind alley is a good idea. Please upload the file directly here on Commons to avoid these problems. —LX (talk, contribs) 12:58, 23 April 2019 (UTC)

Please stop trying, and only create pages with meaningful content.   — Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me 11:55, 26 April 2019 (UTC)
I have autopatrol and thousands of edits on Wikipedia. Deisenbe (talk) 03:22, 28 April 2019 (UTC)
@Deisenbe: You are welcome to apply for autopatrol here at COM:RFR.   — Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me 03:49, 28 April 2019 (UTC)

@JubileeYC: Hi, and welcome. I am sorry to inform you that you have triggered Special:AbuseFilter/153 by trying to cross-wiki upload a smaller (<50KB or <5MP) jpg photo as a new user while leaving the summary intact. The photo you tried to upload is smaller, and you said it's your own work. Usually when someone uploads a smaller photo, it is a copyright violation taken from the web. If you took the photo yourself, please upload the full-size original of it, including EXIF metadata. If you did not take the photo, please see Commons:Licensing for why we can't accept it, and have the photographer send the photo and permission via OTRS with a carbon copy to you. If you change the summary or use our Upload Wizard instead, you should be able to avoid that filter.   — Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me 15:29, 27 April 2019 (UTC)

You have been attempting to remove "source" information from file description pages without being logged in. Please stop doing that.   — Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me 11:14, 28 April 2019 (UTC)
I did so because the stated source is the same as the institution in which the artwork is housed, and there's no link to prove the picture was actually taken from a page related to such institution. — Preceding unsigned comment was added by 179.6.194.231 (talk) 15:24, 28 April 2019 (UTC)
In such cases, please find the actual sources yourself or tag the files {{subst:nsd}}.   — Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me 17:27, 28 April 2019 (UTC)

  • Edit kind: I was attempting to upload one of my photo's and received the message "We could not determine whether this file is suitable for Wikimedia Commons. Please only upload photos that you took yourself with your camera, or see what else is acceptable. See the guide to make sure the file is acceptable and learn how to upload it on Wikimedia Commons."
  • Comments: When I tired again it said "An automated filter has identified this edit as potentially unconstructive, and it has been disallowed. If this edit is constructive, please report this error." AlexxRog (talk) 15:32, 29 April 2019 (UTC)
@AlexxRog: Hi, and welcome. I am sorry to inform you that you have triggered Special:AbuseFilter/153 by trying to cross-wiki upload a png logo as a new user while leaving the summary intact. Such uploads of png logos are not allowed at all. You said it's your own work. Usually when someone uploads a png logo, it's a copyright violation taken from the web. Please upload the full-size original of it, including EXIF metadata, but it may be judged too complex to be under TOO in the country of origin, so you may need to send permission via OTRS. Also, any png image will look fuzzy when scaled down and may look jaggy when scaled up, so you may want to upload svg or jpg versions, too. If you change the summary or use our Upload Wizard instead, you should be able to avoid that filter.   — Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me 16:43, 29 April 2019 (UTC)
