License Review
Hello Minorax,
There are a few commons files that haven't been review (some for a handful of months now) and I'd like to use them on Wikipedia, but I can't until they're reviewed. Since I saw you've been reviewing some photos in bulk (I know there's a lot to get through) I was wondering if I could ask you to double check their license before I use them on Wikipedia?

Hi there Minorax
Hi there, I receive an email about delation request for some pictures which added by me. (https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Cananatlas?markasread=17801945&markasreadwiki=commonswiki#Notification_about_possible_deletion)
Whats wrong with this pictures? May I fix — Preceding unsigned comment was added by 80.255.12.237 (talk) 09:45, 2 January 2020 (UTC)

Hexagrams of the I Ching
Hi! I discovered an error in one of the images that you uploaded in this article:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_hexagrams_of_the_I_Ching
Hexagram 26 has the wrong image, the first 2 lines are incorrectly switched/inverted:
https://i.imgur.com/LWQhwGg.png
Apparently you uploaded it in August 2019:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Iching-hexagram-26.svg
(As you can see, the previous 2 versions were correct).
It would be great if you can fix it (I would fix it myself, but I don't know how). Thanks a lot! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Andrew0345 (talk • contribs) 14:37, 7 January 2020 (UTC)

Twitter images posted by their owner
Hello Minorax, You notified me about the possible copyright picture issue which I posted (https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Chvrches_Love_is_Dead_US_Tour_2018.png). The picture was originally posted on Twitter by their owners (the music band itself: https://twitter.com/CHVRCHES/status/988417368962420736)
The Twitter TOS specifies that: "You retain your rights to any Content you submit, post or display on or through the Services. What’s yours is yours — you own your Content (and your incorporated audio, photos and videos are considered part of the Content). By submitting, posting or displaying Content on or through the Services, you grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license (with the right to sublicense) to use, copy, reproduce, process, adapt, modify, publish, transmit, display and distribute such Content in any and all media or distribution methods now known or later developed (for clarity, these rights include, for example, curating, transforming, and translating). This license authorizes us to make your Content available to the rest of the world and to let others do the same. You agree that this license includes the right for Twitter to provide, promote, and improve the Services and to make Content submitted to or through the Services available to other companies, organizations or individuals for the syndication, broadcast, distribution, Retweet, promotion or publication of such Content on other media and services, subject to our terms and conditions for such Content use.

So, from my point of view, this seems more than ok.

Why do you say that "kindly refrain from coming to me anymore"?
你前面說「Will a supervisor prefer a worker who does the same amount of work in 30 minutes or someone who takes a whole 30 days to finish the same thing?」,當時我有寄信給你,你說你沒收到,現在又說「this is just a waste of my time」,而且你最後還說「kindly refrain from coming to me anymore」。我看不懂你的意思是什麼?
因為你什麼都沒有告訴我,然後你就說「you're not helping yourself and that's the problem」這話,我不知道你是要我幫我自己什麼,所以我在想,你指的problem應該就是在說:「Will a supervisor prefer a worker who does the same amount of work in 30 minutes or someone who takes a whole 30 days to finish the same thing?」這件事。如果是這樣,這話其實是你說的,只不過我看到你叫別人幫你傳達給我,但是你不能因此做為理由,就叫我不要再來找你,好像你意思在告訴我,我想對你說什麼話就要按照你的方式,由第三人轉達,我認為這樣的方式才是在浪費時間。
當初你說「Will a supervisor prefer a worker who does the same amount of work in 30 minutes or someone who takes a whole 30 days to finish the same thing?」這話,到現在你一直沒告訴我,我不知道你是要我怎麼做?因為我不認為這種斥責方式真的是在詢問我,所以你斥責的背後一定有隱藏著「我知道怎麼做」這意思。我這20天就是在思考這件事怎麼解決,與其我一個人胡思亂想,不如我再來找你會比較清楚知道,我當前的工作方式要如何改善,才能達到你心中所想的30分鐘勝過30天。--Kai3952 (talk) 19:46, 17 January 2020 (UTC)

I created this file to use it as a symbol for BJP on various wikipedia pages which requires the symbol of Indian political parties. I have released this file as my own work and under the same license in which various symbols of other Indian political parties are released like , , and there are many more. If it is fair for other political party symbols then why in my case it is requested for deletion?
- @SamanyaGyan: Yes, it may be your own work but it's a derivative work of previously deleted files. Also, I don't go around digging for files to nominate for deletion. If you feel that your file should be kept, you should state your reason in the deletion request. Minoraxtalk (formerly 大诺史) 05:54, 19 January 2020 (UTC)
- @Minorax: Okay, a query not related to deletion of the file: The lotus symbol which is the election symbol of the Indian political party Bharatiya Janata Party is in public domain and have no copyright by them as also mentioned in this DR here. So what can I do to create a file of that symbol without any violations to use it in various wikipedia articles? SamanyaGyan (talk) 16:30, 19 January 2020 (UTC)SamanyaGyan
- @SamanyaGyan: I nominated it based on the outcome of the previous deletion requests. So, if this specific file you uploaded gets deleted, the next option will be to upload it locally (on the wiki where you want to use it). Minoraxtalk (formerly 大诺史) 09:16, 22 January 2020 (UTC)

Movie poster Deletion
Hello Minorax,
I want to know about, Why Korapaak film poster has been deleted? It's their official poster of this film and I don't think that this is any Fair use content. I personally work for this film, so I want to confirm that, This movie has legal, and it's not any non-free logos, covers, screenshots, or reproductions of other copyrighted works. Please review this information and approve this poster.

LTAs and reverts
Hi. There is not a lot of value in undoing LTA work, especially this one, until it is known that they are blocked/locked. This LTA just wants to pick a fight, and loves a revert war, and then will move onto you. So it is my experience that they should be noted to be blocked locally or locked via stewards. They generally should be ignored, they are doing little damage and just trying to provoke a response, which you have just done. It falls under "don't feed the trolls." — billinghurst sDrewth 00:09, 5 February 2020 (UTC)

Re: Deletion request of Aptera images.
All the image files I uploaded came from the Aptera Motors Corp. official site, https://www.aptera.us. One was cropped by me, Fotoguru (talk).
Not finding explicit permission to publically share these files (although sharing links are provided for all these images on their site) I asked for and received permission to use these images on Wikipedia and asked under what license they should be shared. Aptera Motors' CEO, Chris Anthony, replied to my request on Feb. 10, 2020 as follows:
"As for the pictures, anything on the website or in this Dropbox folder is public domain: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/aiv84uz08axfrt3/AAAZxY09df3JBlUweFZzvroNa?dl=0 There is no need to get bugged down with licenses now. We want as many people as possible to see our images and don't care how people might use them. So use anything you think is worthy ;) Let me know if you need anything directly from me. An easier and more direct way to get me is at chris@aptera.us Thanks again! /Chris Aptera"

Deletion requests
Hello!
I see that you have started a few deletion requests with the reason "has no permission". Instead of starting DRs, why don't you just tag the files with {{subst:Npd}} instead?Jonteemil (talk) 04:42, 18 March 2020 (UTC)
- @Jonteemil: Hey :) The reason is that they will all be at the same place so it'll be easier for anyone to comment or for an admin to delete. Minoraxtalk (formerly 大诺史) 04:44, 18 March 2020 (UTC)
- That is correct, you are making it easier for an admin to delete. The problem is though, that you don't give the user the opportunity to send permission to OTRS, which I find problematic. I suggest that you use {{subst:Npd}} in the future instead.Jonteemil (talk) 04:47, 18 March 2020 (UTC)
- @Jonteemil: They can still send the permission to OTRS even if the files are DR-ed. Perhaps next time I'll nominate them with "Permission needed via OTRS". Minoraxtalk (formerly 大诺史) 05:01, 18 March 2020 (UTC)
- Yes, they can, but all users don't even know what OTRS is. To help them {{subst:Npd}} is better than a normal DR.Jonteemil (talk) 05:02, 18 March 2020 (UTC)

Deletion of File:Flag of italy.jpg
Your deletion of the File:Flag of italy.jpg file is myopic because the Windows operating system does not accept .svg files. Therefore, I can only use .jpg, .png, and .ico. In reverse, Linux does not display .ico files. If it's possible, kindly restore it.
In addition, a .jpg file of Italy's national flag merits more consideration than the thousands of meaningless images of individuals displaying various body parts in various poses (at times in duplicate) end up posted without proper vetting. — Ineuw talk 18:34, 24 March 2020 (UTC)
- @Minorax: Thanks for reading my post, and I will choose another image from Category:Flags of Italy icons. I ask you to take the time and effort to go through that category and see the duplicate icons in different formats, as well the quality of the images.— Ineuw talk 14:41, 25 March 2020 (UTC)
- @Ineuw: From what I see, those low res files are used extensively so it can't be deleted as a duplicate. Also, they were uploaded donkey years ago and it makes no sense to delete it as a duplicate of a newer file. However, it is encouraged to change low res PNGs/JPGs to SVGs (or at least a high res PNG). Minoraxtalk (formerly 大诺史) 14:54, 25 March 2020 (UTC)

Hello Minorax, do you know a method to fix the SVG errors in this file? Perhaps you can tell me what I have to do or how I need to change the source code respectively. I use the SVG Edit Tool by Rillke and I want to fix such errors by myself and without help ;-). Chem Sim 2001 (disc) 19:35, 31 March 2020 (UTC)
- @Chem Sim 2001: Hello. The 2 errors are id="93" and id="Wedged Hash Begin Bond". From what I know, numbers and spaces aren't allowed for the id. Minoraxtalk (formerly 大诺史) 11:36, 1 April 2020 (UTC)
- Thanks for that info. I saw that you have fixed the second error (id="Wedged Hash Begin Bond") by replacing this entry with id="Wedged_Hash_Begin_Bond", but how did you fixed the first error? Chem Sim 2001 (disc) 12:52, 1 April 2020 (UTC)
- @Chem Sim 2001: There is no actually need for ids so I removed id=93. I didn't remove the rest as it is best to have minimal changes to the source code. i.e. remove only if there is no suitable substitution. Minoraxtalk (formerly 大诺史) 12:59, 1 April 2020 (UTC)
- Ah okay, thanks for your explanations, it really helped me. Chem Sim 2001 (disc) 13:10, 1 April 2020 (UTC)

Can you take a look at File:Shoko_Nagata_001.jpg, please? What was your suspicion when you tagged this file? The uploader claims in the file description that they took the photograph. I don't see any indication that the claim is false. Note that, despite the similar file names, File:Shoko_Nagata_001.jpg and File:Shoko_Nagata_002.png can and seem to have different copyright situations. The latter page doesn't exactly say it's their own work (or at least includes a somewhat contradictory remark) in Japanese, so 'no permission' tagging is understandable there. The same doesn't seem to apply to File:Shoko_Nagata_001.jpg - it clearly says it's their own work and even specifies where they took the photograph. Was there anything obvious that suggests the statement was untrue? --whym (talk) 12:24, 24 April 2020 (UTC)
- @Whym: My suspicion was that the image looks like a selfie. In addition, the place the image was taken at seems to be her own bedroom instead of where a normal photoshoot will take place. see 1 & 2. Minoraxtalk (formerly 大诺史) 12:51, 24 April 2020 (UTC)
- Thank you for providing the links. Do you know whether if the two pictures in the links you have given indeed depict someone's room or it's just a photoshooting place that is made to look like the interior of a bedroom, apart from the impression you have on it? whym (talk) 10:07, 25 April 2020 (UTC)
- @Whym: Is this fine? "起きたら". Also this. Minoraxtalk (formerly 大诺史) 12:10, 25 April 2020 (UTC)
- I can see that she uses the same room many times, but I'm not sure if we can say it's definitely her own, private room. Even if it's hinted to be one, the entire thing could be fictional. Some celebrities publish and sell fictional life styles, after all. That said, the uploder now requested SD, and I think we can agree to disagree.

Question about Medicine
Hi Minorax. Since you're quite experienced with the translate extension, can you please have a look at Medicine and correct me if I've done something in error? The problem is that translation units don't update the main translation subpage. I tested two times on testwiki before publishing it here, and both times, it worked there with exact the same settings, but it doesn't seem to work here... Thanks! Ahmadtalk 08:17, 19 August 2020 (UTC)
- @Ahmad252: Seems fine now. Kindly check. I’m on mobile now and it’s a pain to type, I can explain later if you want :) Minoraxtalk 11:55, 19 August 2020 (UTC)
- Misread what is stated above. Hold on. Minoraxtalk 12:02, 19 August 2020 (UTC)
- Looking at your contributions, it seems like you created the translation page directly instead of going through Special:Translate. It won't work as the creation of the page in the translation namespace is done automatically whenever you edit through Special:Translate, going the other way won't have the same outcome. Hope this answers your question. --Minoraxtalk 12:14, 19 August 2020 (UTC)
- Hmmm... not really, I used the translation page, but, for some reason, it just created the translation units. Then I tested on Free City of Danzig, and it worked properly. Interestingly, I had the same problem when I first granted the translation admin right to my account on testwiki, but that problem is gone now (I did nothing to fix it). At any rate, thanks a lot for fixing it; it works perfectly fine now (I tested with the Farsi translation). Ahmadtalk 13:40, 19 August 2020 (UTC)

copyright
Dear Minorax,
the files you called "This media is missing permission informatio" are photos of published newspapers about my topic, or screenshots of online articles. Some of them are 18-22 years old so as I see, they are usable in this platform. I'm new in wiki, so please help me if I'm on a wrong way. If necessary, I can can collect a pronouncement from Tamás Kovács,about whom this article is about.
Best regards:

User:byronsmithmusic question.
Hi Minorax,
I see that the photo from my page will be deleted (even though it is of me, and I took it myself with my phone, and I am happy to hand over copyright of the image). Does this mean the rest of the content of the page will also be deleted? I cannot currently see any content on my page. Please let me know.
Thanks. Byron Smith. ----

Administrator
Minorax, congratulations! You now have administrator rights on Commons. Please take a moment to read the Commons:Administrators page and watchlist related pages (in particular Commons:Administrators' noticeboard and its subpages), before launching yourself into page deletions, page protections, account blockings or modifications of protected pages. The majority of the actions of administrators can be reversed by the other admins, except for history merges which must thus be treated with particular care. Have a look at the list of Gadgets (on the bottom there are the ones specifically for admins – however, for example the UserMessages are very helpful too).
Please feel free to join us on IRC: #wikimedia-commons webchat on irc.freenode.net. There is also a channel for Commons admins, which may be useful for more sensitive topics, or coordination among administrators: #wikimedia-commons-admin webchat.
You may find Commons:Guide to adminship to be useful reading. You can find the admin backlog overview at COM:AB.

Questions concerning some deletions
Dear Minorax, I’ve been notified that a whole group of pictures that I misnamed (using Erzurum instead of Gaziantep, a result of a careless batch-conversion) has been deleted as a final step in a process I only half understood. As I still am not quite certain what happened and as you obviously are in the know this message. Am I right in understanding that 1. (after someone suggested I’d do so) a rename-request has been executed so the pictures themselves live on under the right name? 2. the fact they had been renamed made you decide to delete the originals? 3. these originals, with the wrong name, are somehow kept in an archive, but out of sight to viewers? I expected them to be erased from existence, but in view of all the roll-back facilities in Wiki’s I think that is the right condition. As for that, are they out of sight, or can people approach them? I have the impression that they can, but would need to file a request. I’m sorry for all the trouble I’ve caused, and it was a lesson that hopefully leads to less errors from my side so less of a bother for you and others in the system. I’d be pleased to find if my suppositions are right, so an answer would be appreciated. And many thanks for your work, which must be quite a job.Dosseman (talk) 08:14, 8 September 2020 (UTC)
- @Dosseman: Hi, if you're talking about the bunch of DRs I closed earlier today, such as Commons:Deletion requests/File:Erzurum Nuri Mehmet Paşa Camii 0909.jpg. I did not delete them, the user who moved the file suppressed the redirect from being created. The move log still can be seen if you click on the link. --Minoraxtalk 08:18, 8 September 2020 (UTC)
Dear Minorax, Wow, that’s fast. I indeed refer to that bunch. I have come across the option “redirect” but never created it. If I understand correctly the renamed files have a redirect attached, so clicking on the renamed file brings one to the correct picture? And you have accorded this situation, so the pictures, though not deleted, at least live on with the right name as an entry (though other entries to the wrong name exist). I have read that changing redirects puts a strain on the system, so I can imagine this is the best option. Dosseman (talk) 08:31, 8 September 2020 (UTC)
- @Dosseman: The redirect can be optionally created but the user who moved the files chose not to. And yes, there are under what seems to be the correct names. --Minoraxtalk 08:33, 8 September 2020 (UTC)

Why are gonna delete my own images?
Hello, Minorax. I have a question, why are going to delete images that I created. They were screenshots, I took them and then I uploaded to Commons. And then I used it in some pages, but AceHole title.png is not a copyright violation. And if it is a copyright violation, explain me why. Please. Greetings, LosMinions345 (talk). September 11, 2020. 08:43, (UTC).

Oh, but I'm new on Wikipedia and I only want to create or revert pages. Explain me how to upload images. LosMinions345 (talk), September 11, 2020. 08:52 (UTC).
- @LosMinions345: The Spanish Wikipedia disabled local image uploads. So the articles can't have any image if they're not free enough for commons. --Minoraxtalk 15:11, 11 September 2020 (UTC)

I don't blame the administrator for declining to help
您好,雖然我呈報給AN/U,但是需要中文管理員。我不清楚管理員的想法,但是我認為他不應該用這種抗議來表達他的en:WP:CIR,所以我想請您處理。--Kai3952 (talk) 20:15, 5 September 2020 (UTC)
- @Kai3952: 根据这篇文章,台湾算是中华民国的一部分。它通常被称为台湾是因为大部分受控领土是主岛本身。我对这个主题的知识有限,所以我不愿处理此事。抱歉。 --Minoraxtalk 06:50, 6 September 2020 (UTC)
- Pbdragonwang是一個人,而不是台灣,所以我想請管理員處理的事是Pbdragonwang。我已經有寫在AN/U說明他的事,請問你說对这个主题的知识有限,那是指他的哪一方面是我提供的訊息不足?--Kai3952 (talk) 07:05, 6 September 2020 (UTC)
- 你有看見我在AN/U有寫一句中文嗎?--Kai3952 (talk) 07:08, 6 September 2020 (UTC)
- 如果管理員不願處理,恐怕我會被他騷擾,因為我多次想制止他,反而更激起他的en:WP:CIR,而且他那一句中文還是寫給大家看,他的行為分明在挑釁,因此我受夠了他。他告訴我,只要有人去動到他的編輯,他的溝通方式就會展現他的en:WP:CIR,然後我不理會他,結果看到我一直有通知,這表示他一直不斷在我討論頁發言,他的行為帶來給我很大的壓力與困擾。如果你不願處理,那麼你能告訴我該怎麼辦嗎?--Kai3952 (talk) 07:17, 6 September 2020 (UTC)
- 如果他不想和你交谈,我也拿他没辙。最简单的解决方案就是你们不要再互相交流。如果他在您的讨论页上留言,您可选择不理会他。--Minoraxtalk 07:30, 6 September 2020 (UTC)
- 你看看他這個聲明是寫給大家看,這分明是在挑釁、抗議,根本不是如他說拒絕與我互動(交談)。再者,commons很多分類都是用「Taiwan」命名,他企圖將全部用「Republic of China」取代,卻不想和大家討論,我當然會制止他,怎麼可能不理會他。只是他en:WP:CIR太過嚴重,迫使我必須去做到他的要求,然後他又沒有停止爭論,使我不堪他的騷擾,我才會呈報AN/U。因此,我認為最好的解決方案就是請管理員處理他,他沒有爭論不等於他不會亂來,也不代表他的聲明不會撤下。如果這一次我不理會他,下一次他這種en:WP:CIR行為:(1)拒絕接受建議(2)拒絕與人溝通(3)拒絕被人編輯,我可以肯定他會造成別人與他合作上困難,萬一他搞破壞,我豈不是只能放任他為所欲為了嗎?--Kai3952 (talk) 09:20, 6 September 2020 (UTC)
- 如果你不願處理,請你告訴我,我還可以找誰求助?--Kai3952 (talk) 09:24, 6 September 2020 (UTC)
- 你看special:diff/449587094,他果然不肯停下。我對他說停下,他還會爭論,而我對管理員說話,他依然會爭論,我不知道他這個人是想做什麼?--Kai3952 (talk) 09:31, 6 September 2020 (UTC)

後來我看到他在facebook發布訊息,既是聲明不與我有任何互動,同時卻又說他是在解釋金門認同的問題,並且控訴我曲解他的話。我仔細想想,結果你說的對,或許不理會他是最好的解決方案。因為他已經鐵了心不撤下聲明,而且他開始陷入鑽牛角尖。僅管他那個聲明是傷害我,如果我在意他的聲明,可能也會陷入鑽牛角尖。他自己是為了「Category:Historic Buildings of the Republic of China」這個分類被我更改才跑過來找我,結果他自己跑題,去談我認不認同金門,反倒我成了他說我曲解的理由。我身上中了他二支箭,一箭是他的聲明,另一箭是他跑題反控我曲解,這種事看來管理員真的幫不上忙,恐怕我也要學學他,記住對方帳戶才能避開他不負責任的二支箭。抱歉,我打擾你了,日後我遇到他編輯問題,我會找人幫忙,以免發生此事。--Kai3952 (talk) 12:03, 6 September 2020 (UTC)
- @Kai3952: Commons:List_of_administrators_by_language. 您可以尝试询问那些会中文的人(最好是zh-4或以上)。--Minoraxtalk 12:53, 7 September 2020 (UTC)
- 對方已經將這件事去問別人,他們每一個人全說是我的問題,因此我應該不用去問了。剛才我向他道歉,我寫在這:special:diff/451075945,承認他說的對,是我曲解他意思。按照他表達方式,我會曲解是很正常的,因為他是拿「Category:Historic Buildings of the Republic of China」這個分類跟我說,我以為他是想討論分類,誰知道他真正要表達的是「金門是屬於中華民國」這個認同問題。Minorax,我相信你是整顆心想著如何為commons更好才來這裡,那麼我也是如此,我才會將他的來意錯認成是為了分類而討論,因為分類才是與commons貢獻有關,他所說金門認同這個議題,我看不出哪裡是對commons有幫助的,當然我直覺這在浪費我時間去貢獻。你建議我不要去理會他,現在我明白,他完全和我們是兩個世界,我們的思考是如何為commons有幫助,而他和我爭論也確實帶來給我幫助commons有個阻力存在,因此我現在思考他未來繼續在commons編輯,哪天他的編輯是有問題,甚至不當行為是應該被制止,我們大家要如何與他溝通,解決方案或許就如你所言:「尝试询问那些会中文的人」。--Kai3952 (talk) 14:11, 7 September 2020 (UTC)
@Minorax: 對了,你上次在這一則答覆,是不是也適用於「您可以尝试询问那些会中文的人」你這個建議?如果是,那會有問題,因為那些不會看中文的人,他們無法討論,也無從知道討論的共識是什麼,那麼對於Taiwan、Republic of China所有分類使用方式的商定與命名上更改會有很全面的影響,萬一這種影響不是所有人會接受,即便是我們會中文,也用中文討論出共識,仍然可能會招致他們那些不會看中文的人反彈,甚至誤以為我們依據共識進行大規模更改或移動是在搞破壞,因此你有沒有更合適的建議呢?--Kai3952 (talk) 12:05, 16 September 2020 (UTC)
- @Kai3952: 如果有共识,您将不会因遵循共识而被封禁。参COM:NPOV和Commons:Disputed territories。依我看,你和Pbdragonwang都没错,只是观点不一样。最简单的方式就是创建重定向来解决此问题。再次,这只是一个建议,并不涵盖其他用户的观点。Minoraxtalk 12:16, 16 September 2020 (UTC)
- 問題不是我是否會被封禁,而是Pbdragonwang根本只想要我聽他的話去做。雖然你說我和Pbdragonwang都没错,只是观点不一样,可是你也看見了,他是對著我這人而來的,因此他在這裡公告给大家看:「基於過去發生的種種不愉快,本人拒絕再與User:Kai3952互動。」我不可能因為他個人己見就進行大規模的更動,否則社群可能會認為我是在破壞,當然我會建議他去找社群討論,只是問題又回到你說「你和Pbdragonwang都没错,只是观点不一样」這處境,他是堅持只對我說,而且也只願意找我討論,他似乎拒絕我的建議。如果按照你的建議,豈不是我要代替他去討論,那麼是否又會招致他的糾葛;因為他已經跑去臺灣維基社群Fecebook控訴我曲解他,所以我不知道該怎麼做才好?--Kai3952 (talk) 10:28, 17 September 2020 (UTC)
最近幾天,我有思考你在這裡說「最简单的解决方案就是你们不要再互相交流。如果他在您的讨论页上留言,您可选择不理会他」這句話。我認為那不是個好辦法,因為他一開始說的是正事,其提案可能會對commons.wikimedia有幫助,況且我不認識他,根本不知道此人狀態是會談到一半就胡鬧,因此我無從預防。萬一他下次找我,一開始也說的是正事,總不可能要我去做「以人廢言」這種事吧?總之,下此他找來我,我會按照你的建議,去找會中文的人求助,由別人代替我,如此就能避免與他之間的交流。可是我必須對你說,若是他做出編輯戰,甚至是破壞,我是會跑去找他說,因為誰會知道他在做什麼,當然會警告他、制止他,否則大家會質疑我為何沒先警告他,那麼我拒絕和他溝通就反倒成了一種被封禁的理由。--Kai3952 (talk) 15:18, 19 September 2020 (UTC)

Error in SVG file
Hi, there's a problem with File:Château de Fontainebleau Logo.svg and I thank you for adding a banner to point it out. I don't know where the error came from and maybe I missed something. Since I added the third version, I'm trying to figure out where this came from, but to no avail. I have therefore just added a fourth version and it produces exactly the same inconsistency; however, the third version is now shown normally. Are you experienced enough in this field to be able to help out a bit, or perhaps could you point me to a user who is familiar with it? Thank you in advance. Baidax (talk) 14:16, 28 September 2020 (UTC)
- @Baidax: Hi. From this, it shows that data-name="Calque 1" is causing the error. --Minoraxtalk 14:46, 28 September 2020 (UTC)
- @Minorax: Hi again, I just added a new version by removing the two elements at the top but the problem persists. On the other hand, the site validates the file now, and I still find it strange: they are only names which should not influence the rest normally since they are not included anywhere in the rest of the file. Baidax (talk) 14:58, 28 September 2020 (UTC)

Question about file moving
Hi,
I have been using Criterion 4 to harmonize file name in such a way that the user can see what they mean, rather than using many small categories to make distinctions. e.g. File:Tomb of a Lady Talpur (Tombs of Talpur Mirs, Hyderabad).jpg rather than making a small category for a few images to help the user what the different images are. One uploader of some files objects to this. I will not rename his files therefore, and no one else has objected in the two thousand or so files I have renamed. I know the uploader's wishes should be respected, but is there some compromise? Or am I doing file renaming the wrong way? Thanks, Krok6kola (talk) 20:25, 29 September 2020 (UTC)
- For example, to me File:PK Hyderabad asv2020-02 img10 Talpur Tombs.jpg is not descriptive of the fact that it is the grave of the most important person person: "Grave of Mir Mohammad Khan Talpur". Is there a way to compromise? Krok6kola (talk) 20:33, 29 September 2020 (UTC)
- @Krok6kola: If the file name is somewhat clear enough to know what is depicted without opening the file, it shouldn't be moved. Some users have a certain format of how they name their files and they should be honored. --Minoraxtalk 04:13, 30 September 2020 (UTC)
- Would File:Grave of Mir Mohammad Khan Talpur in elaborate enclosure5 (PK Hyderabad asv2020-02 img10 Talpur Tombs) or some other compromise do? I am also trying to name files so files of the same subject will be next to each other in categories that are relatively small to avoid having many categories with one or a few files, for the benefit of the user. Or for files of different elements of the tomb complex in the file example given above, should a separate category be made for the files of the "Grave of Mir Mohammad Khan Talpur" (that file), and separate cats for other elements of the tomb complex, such as for the graves of others, for the grave notable for its different style, for the different structure of "ladies' tomb" buildings, for the renovated examples vs. examples not renovated etc. is the way to go? Or should no attempt be made to help the user be aware of what the different files in the tomb complex portray? Editors for files of important building in India clearly name their files without this worry. Actually, this photographer is the only one who has objected, so maybe I can avoid renaming his, now that I am aware of his format. Or should I not be renaming files who description cannot be determined without opening or don't have a relevant description when opened? Krok6kola (talk) 14:55, 30 September 2020 (UTC)
- @Krok6kola: Criterion 4 should be used at a bare minimum unless it's the only file within a bunch that isn't named systematically. --Minoraxtalk 12:36, 1 October 2020 (UTC)
- What do you mean by "systematically"? Krok6kola (talk) 14:54, 1 October 2020 (UTC)
- @Krok6kola: Something like
- File:Iphone 7 (1).png
- File:Iphone 7 (2).png
- File:Iphone 7 (3).png
- File:Iphone 7 (4).png
- File:Iphone seven.png can be moved to File:Iphone 7 (5).png
- and they're all uploader by the same person/or come from the same source, such as flickr (just my POV of this) and taken within a short timeframe. Just bare in mind that Criterion 4 shouldn't be used as often and if the file name is clear enough of what it's depicting, it shouldn't be moved. --Minoraxtalk 15:16, 1 October 2020 (UTC)

Please give me some information.
I have read the articles about files being eligible to upload well. I have also understood that the copyright was verified with the files I am uploading and I have made sure that there is nothing against the terms and rules of commons. I understood that you previously deleted my uploads because the subject was not notable and I had created a gallery for it. However, I have not created a gallery and the new files I have uploaded have been made sure that they follow all the rules. You have been nominating my files for deletion reasoning that they must be deleted because they have previously been deleted.
Please respond to this request before you take any further action against me or my uploads. Thank You.

@Minorax: I do agree that notability needs to be established to have their own gallery but as I have read, notability need not be established to have their own category.

- @Lucas256: There is a deletion request and you've edited it. Also please read Commons:Galleries#When_to_create_a_gallery again, it specifically states that "Our goal is not to simply have a gallery on every notable or noteworthy subject". --Minoraxtalk 05:35, 2 October 2020 (UTC)
@Minorax: I read it once again and they have only given the difference between a gallery and a category. Not about the flaws in my category and why it must be deleted. Moreover, they said that notability is required only for galleries and not categories. Moreover, you did not answer my old question. Why should the files be deleted if the problem is only with the gallery or category?
- @Lucas256: File:Pratham S Hegde.jpg is an obvious screenshot and File:Pratham Sudhir Hegde.jpg is a selfie of the subject. You do not have the permission to upload these files as they are not your own work. Do also read Commons:Project scope/Pages, galleries and categories. Thanks. --Minoraxtalk 05:47, 2 October 2020 (UTC)

Commons:Project scope/as
Hi! Even though Commons:Project scope/as might have contained no translation at this time, as far as I recall, it had some translation previously, before the introduction of the Translate extension. Are you sure it’s not worth kept? It may be useful if someone starts retranslating the page with the extension. —Tacsipacsi (talk) 00:17, 22 October 2020 (UTC)
- From the logs, it seems like the page has some translated text before it was overwritten by the bot. I’ll restore the page when I have access to a computer. Thanks and sorry for the inconvenience. Minoraxtalk 21:27, 23 October 2020 (UTC)
- @Tacsipacsi: I can’t seem to restore the page. So the next best option is to actually just copy the text and add it back to the translation units manually. Minoraxtalk 06:24, 31 October 2020 (UTC)
- I don’t know how to use the Translate extension as a (regular) admin, maybe Nikerabbit has an idea. (Copying is not really an option here, as the important part is the page history.) As a last resort, you can unmark Commons:Project scope for translation, restore the page, and mark for translation again. —Tacsipacsi (talk) 01:18, 1 November 2020 (UTC)
- @Tacsipacsi: Sorry for the delay, restored the page. --Minoraxtalk 05:33, 6 November 2020 (UTC)

DR
Hi Minorax, here and here you added a 2017 DR to the talkpage however I can't find no such DR and I hadn't recieved any notifications on my talkpage in March 2017 so wasn't sure if this was an error or whether you knew something I didn't :),
Many thanks, Kind Regards, –Davey2010Talk 16:42, 6 November 2020 (UTC)
- @Minorax: Something went wrong with the script I suppose. Thanks! --Minoraxtalk 03:24, 7 November 2020 (UTC)
- Ah okay no worries, I didn't want to remove them incase I were wrong as not the first time my assumption has been wrong lol, Anyway thanks for fixing these! :), Thanks, Regards, –Davey2010Talk 12:11, 7 November 2020 (UTC)

Incorrect Lint error fixes
Hi! Please don’t fix Lint errors just for the sake of getting rid of warnings. Deprecated HTML tags like <tt>
and <center>
are deprecated because they convey no semantic meaning. If you replace them with ones that do convey semantic meaning but the usage doesn’t match this meaning, it just makes things worse. <kbd>
represents a span of inline text denoting textual user input
. Esc
probably conforms this meaning, but the quote from the preferences page is certainly not a user input. These are just warnings; <tt>
is supported by all major browsers and will probably be supported forever (as there are tons of legacy websites that will never be updated), so there’s no need to hurry and go the easy way. —Tacsipacsi (talk) 21:49, 16 November 2020 (UTC)
- @Tacaipacsi: I’ll correct them later this week, thanks for letting me know. Minoraxtalk 06:10, 18 November 2020 (UTC)

Hassan II mosque
Although it's too early, but I would ask, that in 2070, would an administrator restore the deleted files, even if the original uploader is already dead?--Maher27777 (talk) 13:44, 27 November 2020 (UTC)
- @Maher27777: An admin will restore the files regardless of whether the uploader is dead or alive. --Minoraxtalk 08:02, 28 November 2020 (UTC)

Hi there. As you are busy closing DRs of 11 Dec, please have a look at the two files in Cat:Can Sarvan; they both have OTRS permission and both are in use. Thanks and regards. --E4024 (talk) 04:04, 19 December 2020 (UTC)

Thank you for closing and one remaining
Hi! Thanks for closing COM:Deletion_requests/Files_uploaded_by_Sharon.bulova.

Daily gallery updater has failed on User:Minorax/PD textlogo
Hello. This message is to inform you that a daily gallery in your userspace, User:Minorax/PD textlogo, has failed. Due to software limitations, the bot has a hard upper-limit of about 6000 files per day (including overflow galleries), while your gallery had 30590 files.
This usually happens because a gallery is too broad, encompassing too many subcategories. Please review the logs here and request that a subcategory be excluded, or narrow your category choice(s).
Please make your request for removal within 4 days, or your gallery will be subject to removal.
