Hello JJMC89. You seem to know your stuff on non-free image criteria – can I ask whether uploads like File:Rosa Raoulx.png are ok? My understanding is that if you cannot find a freely available image of a deceased person, you can upload a possibly copyrighted version as long as it is used only on their biography and is low resolution (below 100,000 pixels in size). However, I just want to double check this is correct before I continue doing this. Cheers, Number 5 7 20:45, 1 February 2020 (UTC)

Just curious to understand why you may have abandoned the draft for Donna Read. I've never seen the option G13: Abandoned draft or AfC submission which popped up when attempting to create a draft for her. It would be helpful to understand what happened before attempting to create another page for Donna Read.

Hi, since you removed Biografer's autopatrolled because of block evasion, I was wondering if any of these indeffed users who still have autopatrolled were worth looking at. They were either blocked for sockpuppetry, one per community consensus, and one for advertising:
Hope this is something. ミラ P 17:53, 31 January 2020 (UTC)
an administrator may revoke their rights from an account that, by being blocked, also loses the trust needed for the rights assigned to it.Sockpuppetry is a way to lose trust, therefore the rights should best be revoked. ミラ P 04:50, 1 February 2020 (UTC)

Hi there. The image above is the first I've tried to upload, and then you tagged it with a Bsr template. I believe that I have fixed it in this diff by linking to the site that includes the article and image inline as opposed to just linking to the image url. Since I haven't done this before, I wanted to double check to see if this truly fixes the issue or not. Thanks, 2pou ( talk) 08:38, 6 February 2020 (UTC)
Please consider restoring the article as a redirect to Indian Premier League. There have been attempts to develop the redirect into its own article a bit too soon. Most of the times, editors just restore the redirect. This time it appears it was draftified. I believe the past history of the redirect would be useful in any case, as at least one editor has resorted to socking to try and get their preferred version established. Regards!

Hi JJMC89. Would you mind watching this article for awhile? The same IP keeps re-adding non-free files to it as flag icons despite the fact that have been repeatedly removed by your bot and then by me. I've left a few general templates about this on the IP's user talk page, but I'm not sure they have read them. This started back at the beginning of December last year, but it was another IP doing it. Same types of edits to similar articles, so maybe the IPs are the same person. Maybe the templates I left will slow them down; if not, however, then maybe WP:PP or a stronger warning from an admin will. The problem with {{ uw-nonfree}} is that it's a single level warning so there's nothing you can add that's more strongly worded than that specifically related to non-free content use. -- Marchjuly ( talk) 13:24, 7 February 2020 (UTC)

Hi. You tagged the above image with "This file has a non-free use rationale that is disputed because of the following concern: Does not satisfy WP:NFCC#8. (The image is not used as the primary means of visual identification of the article subject, contrary to the rationale.)"
The problem, as I see it (please correct me if I'm wrong), is that the Fred Opert article effectively covers two subjects - Fred Opert, racing driver, and Fred Opert Racing, a team he founded. The logo is used as the primary means of visual identification of Fred Opert Racing and I stated in the Purpose section (which you have since changed) that "The image is placed in the infobox at the top of the section of the article discussing Fred Opert Racing, a subject of public interest" (emphasis added). Is this not allowed? If no, is there any other rationale we can use? -- kingboyk ( talk) 01:19, 13 February 2020 (UTC) (would appreciate a reply here and a ping, thanks)

Hi there,
Is your problem with File:Creative sparks all four.png with the original version or with the later version that MrMajors uploaded?
I think that the second version was overly prominent; mine was fairly small and made the point without being excessive.
It's not clear whether you wanted the old version deleted (which your original tagging suggests) or whether you disagree completely.
I think there was a clear rationale on the original.

Hi, your bot removed a link to File:Mars Global Remote Sensing Orbiter and Small Rover (2020).png in the above entitled list. Since the PNG image file itself and its use on the Mars Global Remote Sensing Orbiter and Small Rover page appear to be OK, I assume that the use of this file on the list page triggered some sort of possible minimal use violation; this seems a bit strange to me since the list entry for the probe is essentially an abbreviated version of the probe page. If minimal use is indeed the issue, please let me know. Also, if you and your bot are adamant about the image file's usage being a violation of minimal use, I think I can live it; just like to know this for future reference.

I had sought to delete the article and recreate it because every single revision contains almost blatant copyvio from this source. Though it wasn't me who plagiarised, but an incompetent Sangavitamilmani who is indefinitely blocked. A March 2018 article said, "the entry on this film has also got a storyline which should be held up as an example of bad English in all schools". I believed deleting and recreating is a form of purification, and similar to a phoenix's rebirth. But never mind, I've used the {{ copyvio-revdel}} template now. -- Kailash29792 (talk) 05:16, 21 February 2020 (UTC)

It's been 10 days, and there has been just one cautionary comment at Wikipedia:Village pump (proposals)#Bot to move coordinates into infobox. Should this go to WP:BRFA now? MB 05:54, 10 February 2020 (UTC)
|coor=
to |coordinates=
if that is present. (as far as I know, |coordinates=
always works). There are some infoboxes that support |geo=
also - replacing those with |coordinates=
is another possibility. Something else I see occasionally is coords mistakenly in |location=
, could you "move" those to |coordinates=
? Lastly, sometimes there are unformatted coords (using |coordinates=
with raw numbers, without {{
coord}}
. Could those be added to a new maint category for manual fixing? I think that's my entire "wishlish". Will certainly be glad to help out with any manual cleanup of odd-ball cases. Thanks.
MB 05:42, 11 February 2020 (UTC)
{{coord|...|display=title}}
from the body to the infobox as {{coord|...|display=inline,title}}
. When that happens, I can rename the parameter to |coordinates=
too. I'll see what I can do about tracking raw coordinates. —
JJMC89 07:26, 14 February 2020 (UTC)
|coordinates=
are for the capital, not the country itself. (There are other similar cases.){{coord|...|display=title}}
don't have an infobox that uses coordinates. Example: {{
infobox company}}{{
infobox shopping mall}}
. There are some other special cases, like {{
infobox river}}
that have multiple coords (mouth and source) - it is the mouth coords that go in the title. So I agree think we should develop a list of infoboxes to use. I can work on this.Great, this seems like a very reasonable rate of bot-moveable to manual cleanup needed. I looked at Puente Hills Mall and the coords in the title were the dead-center of the mall, while those in the infobox were about 100 feet off. It wouldn't have been terrible to use either one, but of course it is best to manually check these.
When you say "edits", is that just moving to infobox? Or does the bot do things like change the display to inline/title if they are already only in infobox but with display=inline only?
I looked at Stanford Shopping Center and the inline coords were used to display the coords in the EL section at the bottom. This is non-standard usage and I deleted the EL, another manual job since there was a "*Map:" before the coords that had to go also. You have chosen to not do anything with these. I think it is safe for the bot to add these coords to the infobox, providing there is only one inline coord in the article and the inline instance is left there (with display changed to inline only if necessary) pending manual removal.
This brings up another issue. In settlements, it is not that uncommon to see text in the article that says "anytown is located at 12°20′42″N 67°53′24″E / 12.345°N 67.890°E. These always appear distracting to me and are redundant with the coords in the preferred location (infobox and title). If you categorize these, I could start a discussion to try to get consensus to (manually) remove such text. This should be a different category than the one for mismatches.
I've started working on the infobox list. It looks like there will be 200+ infoboxes to process. (Many of the ones I am removing are for people with burial coords in the infobox that never go in the title.)
On the precision issue, I have found that there is {{
Infobox artwork}}
where 5 digit precision may be appropriate. Can you handle that differently that the rest?
MB 15:53, 20 February 2020 (UTC)
{{coord|...|display=title}}
from the body to the infobox as {{coord|...|display=inline,title}}
(or categorizing raw infobox coordinates, which didn't happen in that run). I don't know about setting |display=inline,title
when there aren't coordinates in the title already. IIRC, I've seen some editors not want coordinates in the title. For the |display=inline,title
outside the infobox case, yes, I can make it do that. I'll take a look at categorizing the inline only case. One way or another, I will be able to handle different precisions. How I handle it will depend on whether {{infobox artwork}} is the only special case. —

Hi, I've noticed that you have removed the rationales for File:Lebanon Football Association (LFA) logo.svg and File:Korea Football Association logo, 2020.svg to be used in their respective NT articles. The motivation you provided isn't entirely clear to me: you stated WP:NFCC#8 as a reason for their removal. "Contextual significance" states that, "Non-free content is used only if its presence would significantly increase readers' understanding of the article topic, and its omission would be detrimental to that understanding." I don't see how this applies to the two logos in question, and why we should only remove them from the national team articles, and keep it in the federation's.

Hi, in order for File:Lebanon national football team logo.svg to be viable, what should be changed? From where should I obtain the image from? Nehme1499 ( talk) 12:49, 19 February 2020 (UTC)
This is getting ridiculous. I must have provided something like 7 different sources for File:Lebanese Football Association (LFA) logo.svg, and none of them seems to satisfy you. I have used the website where the SVG file is uploaded, and it's not OK. I used Soccerway.com, a reliable source for association football, and it's not OK. I used the official Lebanese Intellectual Property website, and it's not OK. It's very evident that whichever source I put, you will just paste the same "There is no evidence of previous publication by the copyright holder. (WP:NFCC#4)". Be very clear with what you want, and what source I should use. Give me a very specific example. Nehme1499 ( talk) 21:31, 22 February 2020 (UTC)

Hi JJMC89. Would you mind checking this file's page again? I'm not sure why a non-free license and non-free use rationale need to be added to the local page of a Commons file, particularly one that's OTRS verified. -- Marchjuly ( talk) 02:18, 20 February 2020 (UTC)
I had sought to delete the article and recreate it because every single revision contains almost blatant copyvio from this source. Though it wasn't me who plagiarised, but an incompetent Sangavitamilmani who is indefinitely blocked. A March 2018 article said, "the entry on this film has also got a storyline which should be held up as an example of bad English in all schools". I believed deleting and recreating is a form of purification, and similar to a phoenix's rebirth. But never mind, I've used the {{ copyvio-revdel}} template now. -- Kailash29792 (talk) 05:16, 21 February 2020 (UTC)

It's been 10 days, and there has been just one cautionary comment at Wikipedia:Village pump (proposals)#Bot to move coordinates into infobox. Should this go to WP:BRFA now? MB 05:54, 10 February 2020 (UTC)
|coor=
to |coordinates=
if that is present. (as far as I know, |coordinates=
always works). There are some infoboxes that support |geo=
also - replacing those with |coordinates=
is another possibility. Something else I see occasionally is coords mistakenly in |location=
, could you "move" those to |coordinates=
? Lastly, sometimes there are unformatted coords (using |coordinates=
with raw numbers, without {{
coord}}
. Could those be added to a new maint category for manual fixing? I think that's my entire "wishlish". Will certainly be glad to help out with any manual cleanup of odd-ball cases. Thanks.
MB 05:42, 11 February 2020 (UTC)
{{coord|...|display=title}}
from the body to the infobox as {{coord|...|display=inline,title}}
. When that happens, I can rename the parameter to |coordinates=
too. I'll see what I can do about tracking raw coordinates. —
JJMC89 07:26, 14 February 2020 (UTC)
|coordinates=
are for the capital, not the country itself. (There are other similar cases.){{coord|...|display=title}}
don't have an infobox that uses coordinates. Example: {{
infobox company}}{{
infobox shopping mall}}
. There are some other special cases, like {{
infobox river}}
that have multiple coords (mouth and source) - it is the mouth coords that go in the title. So I agree think we should develop a list of infoboxes to use. I can work on this.Great, this seems like a very reasonable rate of bot-moveable to manual cleanup needed. I looked at Puente Hills Mall and the coords in the title were the dead-center of the mall, while those in the infobox were about 100 feet off. It wouldn't have been terrible to use either one, but of course it is best to manually check these.
When you say "edits", is that just moving to infobox? Or does the bot do things like change the display to inline/title if they are already only in infobox but with display=inline only?
I looked at Stanford Shopping Center and the inline coords were used to display the coords in the EL section at the bottom. This is non-standard usage and I deleted the EL, another manual job since there was a "*Map:" before the coords that had to go also. You have chosen to not do anything with these. I think it is safe for the bot to add these coords to the infobox, providing there is only one inline coord in the article and the inline instance is left there (with display changed to inline only if necessary) pending manual removal.
This brings up another issue. In settlements, it is not that uncommon to see text in the article that says "anytown is located at 12°20′42″N 67°53′24″E / 12.345°N 67.890°E. These always appear distracting to me and are redundant with the coords in the preferred location (infobox and title). If you categorize these, I could start a discussion to try to get consensus to (manually) remove such text. This should be a different category than the one for mismatches.
I've started working on the infobox list. It looks like there will be 200+ infoboxes to process. (Many of the ones I am removing are for people with burial coords in the infobox that never go in the title.)
On the precision issue, I have found that there is {{
Infobox artwork}}
where 5 digit precision may be appropriate. Can you handle that differently that the rest?
MB 15:53, 20 February 2020 (UTC)
{{coord|...|display=title}}
from the body to the infobox as {{coord|...|display=inline,title}}
(or categorizing raw infobox coordinates, which didn't happen in that run). I don't know about setting |display=inline,title
when there aren't coordinates in the title already. IIRC, I've seen some editors not want coordinates in the title. For the |display=inline,title
outside the infobox case, yes, I can make it do that. I'll take a look at categorizing the inline only case. One way or another, I will be able to handle different precisions. How I handle it will depend on whether {{infobox artwork}} is the only special case. —

Hi
As for Leigh Snowden picture. I have added a tag that the status is being disputed.

Hi, I've noticed that you have removed the rationales for File:Lebanon Football Association (LFA) logo.svg and File:Korea Football Association logo, 2020.svg to be used in their respective NT articles. The motivation you provided isn't entirely clear to me: you stated WP:NFCC#8 as a reason for their removal. "Contextual significance" states that, "Non-free content is used only if its presence would significantly increase readers' understanding of the article topic, and its omission would be detrimental to that understanding." I don't see how this applies to the two logos in question, and why we should only remove them from the national team articles, and keep it in the federation's.

Hi, in order for File:Lebanon national football team logo.svg to be viable, what should be changed? From where should I obtain the image from? Nehme1499 ( talk) 12:49, 19 February 2020 (UTC)
This is getting ridiculous. I must have provided something like 7 different sources for File:Lebanese Football Association (LFA) logo.svg, and none of them seems to satisfy you. I have used the website where the SVG file is uploaded, and it's not OK. I used Soccerway.com, a reliable source for association football, and it's not OK. I used the official Lebanese Intellectual Property website, and it's not OK. It's very evident that whichever source I put, you will just paste the same "There is no evidence of previous publication by the copyright holder. (WP:NFCC#4)". Be very clear with what you want, and what source I should use. Give me a very specific example. Nehme1499 ( talk) 21:31, 22 February 2020 (UTC)
@ JJMC89: I'm pretty baffled that you think those pictures cannot increase readers' understanding.-- Marc Lacoste ( talk) 08:29, 21 February 2020 (UTC)
Someone put "delete" in "no consensus to delete", and the command ending in the word "delete" caused Cydebot to empty the categories. If you unblock Cydebot and add a warning not to add "delete" lest it makes Cydebot remove the categories, it should operate perfectly. ミラ P 00:09, 26 February 2020 (UTC)

Reason why I asked for a CU check is because I believed there are a few more accounts. When I read User talk:Mike Matthews17 top post just now about wanting to edit a locked article, that sounded pretty fishy to me considering the turn of events. This user goes on to tries to frame other people with fake signatures. My gut is just telling me there is more down the rabbit hole! Cheers. Govvy ( talk) 09:59, 28 February 2020 (UTC)
