Vandalism warning[edit]
This is vandalism as it has removed essential source and authorship information from this file. Don't continue to vandalise otherwise you will be blocked.russavia (talk) 17:38, 26 December 2014 (UTC)
- This warning is rejected. Newyorkbrad (talk) 17:48, 26 December 2014 (UTC)
- You can reject it all you want Newyorkbrad, but if you vandalise again you will be blocked. Don't push it. russavia (talk) 17:55, 26 December 2014 (UTC)
- If that file isn't deleted here I will request an Office action. Newyorkbrad (talk) 18:01, 26 December 2014 (UTC)
- You are free to ask for an office action, but there is no evidence that it has been uploaded to harass Jimmy as you have stated. It's been uploaded because 1) it's a funny look at Wikipedia and 2) it's been made available under a free licence by the author. We host Wikipedia humor on Commons, and as a public figure Jimmy clearly is going to satirised. But in this case, Jimmy isn't even the "target" of the satire, Wikipedia itself is, as well as the current fundraising drive. So do what you want to do in terms of asking for an office action, but if you vandalise this project again (as a lawyer, you know that what you deleted is essential information), you now know the consequences -- of course, I won't block you but would bring it up for discussion first. russavia (talk) 18:46, 26 December 2014 (UTC)
- I'm actually more inclined to go back to my default position of having nothing to do with this project. Newyorkbrad (talk) 19:05, 26 December 2014 (UTC)
- Well, that might be best, given your first ever edit here was one which was attacking myself with absolutely no evidence of the accusations you have made. I don't know about others, but you can surely understand that under the circumstances as they are right now, I'm not sorry to see you go. But, having said that, if you would like to drop the holier-than-thou attitude that you evidently hold and engage with others as equals, instead of as some sort of untermensch, you will see my attitude on that front improve dramatically. I don't know if you've realised this yet, but my attitude is dependent on how you treat me. Best, russavia (talk) 19:15, 26 December 2014 (UTC)
- Although I prefer the first sentence as you've typed it, I assume you inadvertently left out a "no". Beyond that, let's see how others view the situation. Newyorkbrad (talk) 19:31, 26 December 2014 (UTC)
- Thank you for noticing that you had "absolutely no evidence" in your attacks against me here on Commons. I have amended the comment accordingly. russavia (talk) 19:45, 26 December 2014 (UTC)
