The rationale for why the image satisfys NFCC #8 is given here, where I've had a similar discussion with another administrator on the topic. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tookatee ( talk • contribs) 08:25, 27 February 2020 (UTC)
@ JJMC89:Please do not delete the files File:Gold Coast 2018 Commonwealth Games Medals.jpg and File:Glasgow 2014 Commonwealth Games Medals.jpg as I added an appropriate explanation or rationale in their main pages. Please read their entire pages. Thegreatestmanonearth ( talk) 12:24, 3 March 2020 (UTC)
Would you mind watching Miss Universe Philippines 2020 a bit? JJMC89 bot will probably pick up on things as well and I've tried to explain things here, but not sure if the other editor is looking at their user talk page. There's no record of them making any edits to user talk pages, and their only post to an article talk page was back in 2006. It would be nice if there to figure out a way to sort this out that doesn't involve ending up at AN3 since they don't appear to have ever been blocked before. Maybe hidden notes or an edit notice for that particular article/section might help? -- Marchjuly ( talk) 22:22, 1 March 2020 (UTC)

Hi, JJMC89,
Just curious, how did you know this editor was a long-time troll/sockpuppet? Anyone I would have run in to before? Liz Read! Talk! 04:32, 5 March 2020 (UTC)

Hi, normally the logos as primary use of identification of an organisation are okay under free use rationale, what is your reasoning for deleting it? Wolfmartyn ( talk) 23:54, 6 March 2020 (UTC)
Hi, I want to improve this page according to WP:Paid, so please remove {{Undisclosed paid|date=September 2017}}. The fact that I publicly declare a conflict of interest will help other discussants to objectively evaluate my edits on this page. -- Serghiy Hrabarook ( talk) 19:19, 9 March 2020 (UTC)
You may not have noticed, but in the middle of BMW logo 2020.svg should not be blue and transparent, but blue and white. Furthermore, what is going on the Wikimedia Commons with BMW.svg (look at the file history)? Sincerely, -- 2001:999:42:19B1:11F8:14EE:A4C5:7516 ( talk) 22:25, 9 March 2020 (UTC)
Hi, a few days ago I tagged you in a bunch of edits asking you to clean up after your move, without realizing that JJMC89 bot III operates fully automatic. A few hours ago some more pages were moved (Dune related categories), again without cleaning up the disallowed DISPLAYTITLE modifications that were left behind. Should user:Ymblanter not have requested these moves? Should the bot refuse to process pages with DISPLAYTITLE modifications? --– bdijkstra ( talk) 11:03, 10 March 2020 (UTC)
Hi, Our non-profit organization's page was deleted almost a month ago. We're sorry about that and we have notified our editors to enrich the article with more reliable sources. What is the next step we should do? Want us to create another article or we can restore the old one? Thank you in advance! T19670000 ( talk) 23:21, 15 March 2020 (UTC)
As mentioned in File talk:Alex16x08final.png, I think this image should not be up for deletion as I think it does not fail the Criterion 8 of the non-free content criteria (Contextual significance: 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.) Since the page it is included ( Leave a Light On (Grey's Anatomy)) has its most relevant information to be about the departure of one main character, the picture shows the last physical appearance of that main character it is talked about on the page for better understanding of the article. If there is something I should to to improve this situation, or might be up for deletion anyway, let me know. — emaponche ( talk) 00:51, 16 March 2020 (UTC)
@ JJMC89: Same discussion applies to File talk:Meredith16x16.png and it is addressed in its talk page — emaponche ( talk) 01:34, 16 March 2020 (UTC)
"This file does not appear to comply with the non-free content criteria, specifically: Criterion 8, because the file does not significantly increase readers' understanding of the topic, and its omission would not be detrimental to that understanding"
I am getting quite concerned with your tagging of images. Specifically you are tagging images as to be deleted under NFCC#8 on images that appear to quite easily meet the test, or could be argued that they justifiably illustrate the topic at hand:
These are only four examples I have seen. It looks like you are rapidly going through a list of images without carefully checking the articles themselves. For instance, you did this on the article I spent a long time in writing, Sylvia Rose Ashby and I feel there is no way you could have come to the conclusions on the image you nominated if you had have read the article itself. Please be more careful. - Chris.sherlock ( talk) 05:02, 16 March 2020 (UTC)
It was unwise and against process to just move this back - the 2015 discussion was a totally different proposal, for a merger with actual Swiss cheeses. The American stuff is very clearly not primary (did you look at the views?). But I will do an RM, as you should have done. Johnbod ( talk) 23:09, 22 March 2020 (UTC)
You may want to rev/delete some December edit summaries as well at Annapurna Pictures; I'm not even looking at the other article histories. Thank you, 2601:188:180:B8E0:75BB:4BD0:D3CD:79D ( talk) 04:51, 23 March 2020 (UTC)
The bot is declining to process entries at Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Working#Retain. I'm not sure why. Timrollpickering ( Talk) 22:28, 18 March 2020 (UTC)
It's stalling again on both some retains and some mergers (although the latter is complicated by templates). Timrollpickering ( Talk) 14:22, 25 March 2020 (UTC)
Hi -- I saw you tagged File:Knap Hill Camp map M.E. Cunnington 1911.png for deletion based on replaceability. I know that copyrighted maps can always be marked as replaceable because free mapping software exists, though one might have to add labels and so on. I was under the impression that it was not possible to simply trace a map, since that would reproduce the underlying copyrighted form mechanically, so the traced copy is a derivative work. So what's the mechanism by which a duplicate could be legitimately created here? There's no underlying map data, and a freehand copy would not be accurate enough unless it took care to match the form, and the position of the letters, exactly. And surely that would turn it into a derivative work, since the only way it could do that is by measuring and replicating the original's layout?
I'm willing to create a free copy, but I have to admit I don't see how to do it. Mike Christie ( talk - contribs - library) 11:04, 25 March 2020 (UTC)
Hi, there's currently an instruction at CFDW (permalink):
However, the first category was deleted by the bot.
Although I asked for it to be redirected, I'm not bothered in this case after all. However, was it a malfunction for the page to be deleted? This was a merge rather than a move; does the REDIRECT instruction only work for moves? – Fayenatic London 23:28, 23 March 2020 (UTC)
See Template:Heli-Sport aircraft re: this. Yes, I accidentally created tge talk page first, but by the time you deleted it, the navbox had been created for an hour and a half. I didn't want to recreate it without letting you know first. Thanks. - BilCat ( talk) 07:15, 29 March 2020 (UTC)
I asked DragonflySixtyseven on IRC about tagging draft redirects if they haven't been touched for 6 months or more, and he said that they would be eligible. The log:
<Pengu_> Dragonfly6-7, if a draft article is stale for 6 months and only serves as a redirect, is it eligible for CSD
<Dragonfly6-7> pretty much
Additionally, if you look at my list of manual CSD's you can see that the draft articles that were redirects were deleted under G13. I feel there is no need to have redirects from draft space, and whilst I have made a proposal at the Village Pump, I figured I'd be bold and go ahead with tagging them regardless, with no resistance until now. I ask that you please reconsider my CSD's due to this, unless you wish to wait for wider consensus. Thepenguin9 ( talk) 16:05, 31 March 2020 (UTC)
