These deletion requests

[edit]

Dear SanDanceVR,

As the South African-based organiser of the Wiki Loves Africa project I wanted to personally thank you for not only submitting great photos, but also photos that show a little known aspect of South Africa's Khoi San culture. I know to look at all the deletion requests above might seem daunting and you might wonder what you have done to enter, but we have spoken to the person who put these up for deletion and are sure they will be kept and valued by the community. They will also be used to illustrate the relevant articles when needed and as they are written! So thank you, and apologies for the wiki confusion!! Islahaddow (talk) 13:23, 19 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

To connote to what Islahaddow has said, The images would be kept. I'll open a corresponding with you on how to resolve this. Sorry to be the one to nominate your pictures for deletion. Expect an email from me anytime soon. With kind regards. Wikicology (talk) 13:31, 19 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
