I undesrtand ok. Can you please erase your marks on my talk page. If you want to comment do it on your own space. I already deleted it but it came back. I am free to add or erase on my own talk page. Please let it be. Thanks you.--FR9 03:46, 2 September 2012 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Frog890 (talk • contribs)

You can remove it on your own. If someone restores it again, you can take the issue to WP:ANI and ask for an administrator to tell that person to stop restoring it. In the meantime, please read commons:COM:L, and stop uploading content that you did not 100% create on your own, or you are liable to end up with all your contributions deleted and (eventually) yourself blocked.

His indefinite 1RR restriction was removed at ANI a few months ago. I suggest taking the issue to ANI again and asking an uninvolved admin to impose sanctions on him per WP:GS. I would strongly support any sanctions placed upon him. Magog the Ogre (t • c) 15:18, 2 September 2012 (UTC)

File:Baltimore Ravens Alternate Logo.gif

As uploading the image twice to Commons would be rather pointless, what purpose is keeping the image? Or rather, what should be done so that the local copy is deleted? Regards, — Moe ε 00:28, 4 September 2012 (UTC)

Too simple for copyright

This comment gives me reason to why this file was deleted since "The mural at the back would fall under copyright" that was the only delete vote is this logo. --Walter Görlitz (talk)

The item is clearly too simple for copyright. I also know that Jim would not delete something like this logo based on copyright grounds (at least for US-based works). Perhaps you should ask him for clarification on why that image was deleted. Magog the Ogre (t • c) 12:43, 6 September 2012 (UTC)

Re:File:Brock House plaque.JPG

There is more of files of this type - see User:Multichill/top self uploaders/Iota 9. If it is 2D work than you may want to nominate also others (but it may be a good idea to wait for decision on Commons) Bulwersator (talk) 07:49, 11 September 2012 (UTC)

Hello Magog the Ogre,

You recently marked for deletion this file, here and on Commons, because of no license and no source. This seems dubious to me: when I look to the original version here ([1]), I find a license (GFDL-with-disclaimers), and a source (Self taken picture). Croquant (talk) 09:57, 11 September 2012 (UTC)

Actually that information is from a previous upload by another user. The text is a remnant from a history split.[2] Magog the Ogre (t • c) 13:44, 11 September 2012 (UTC)

I am not sure I understand; are you saying that, even if the last version lacks license and source information, at least one of the previous version is OK? if so, just restore it. Croquant (talk) 21:16, 11 September 2012 (UTC)

What happened is this: User:Katochnr uploaded a photo and gave it a source and a license. Then User:Windrider24584 came along and a completely different photo at the same name (which s/he should not have done). Windrider never then changed the text of the page to indicate who is the author of the new photo, or what license is has. For all we know, s/he got it from somewhere on the internet and the author isn't OK with the license. Magog the Ogre (t • c) 21:34, 11 September 2012 (UTC)

OK, I understand. Now, what is the new name of the original image I uploaded from en wiki? Croquant (talk) 07:28, 12 September 2012 (UTC)

The missing manual

Hi. I moved a lot of files to Commons:Category:The Missing Manual. Files need a cleanup so they will look like shit to start with but they should end up much nicer after a few bot runs. --MGA73 (talk) 18:37, 11 September 2012 (UTC)

Wow! They really do look like hell. My bot would fix it up to some extent, but they might need some work with AWB. Magog the Ogre (t • c) 19:03, 11 September 2012 (UTC)

My bot should fix most of it now... :-) --MGA73 (talk) 19:56, 11 September 2012 (UTC)

My bot can do the rest tomorrow. Magog the Ogre (t • c) 20:41, 11 September 2012 (UTC)

My bot stopped working now so it should be ok... I expect your bot to finish the job as usual. If you find any problems let me know - unless ofcourse you fix it :-) --MGA73 (talk) 20:49, 11 September 2012 (UTC)
