Help regarding threat on Talk pages
Hi, JJMC89 while patrolling against vandalism I came across an edit that I found as unsourced see here so I reverted. I also placed a {{subst:uw-unsourced2}} as per norms. But as per history the person still added unsourced data see here. See the warning list on his User_talk:Raje_Ranveer. Now the guy is threatening all the persons who have placed warnings see evidence [1], [2]. Please suggest what to do. Thank you. Amkgp (talk) 06:33, 1 May 2020 (UTC)
User:Yall are smart
Hi - I'm not sure whether I should be raising this here, at the Admins noticeboard, or not at all! Figured I'd come here first as you've had engagement with this user already. Please could you check out its edit summaries & its insistence on calling others editors dumb & lacking brain cells.

Page Deletion
Hi you recently deleted a new page The Speakmans TV Show , i’m wondering what part you deemed copy-write , is there anything i could change ? this is my first article Thank you 82.25.90.58 (talk) 08:54, 2 May 2020 (UTC)
- Jasuthers, you should log in to your account. Almost all of it was copied. The CopyPatrol link in the deletion log has a link to an iThenticate report that shows significat copyying, partularly of plot summaries. — JJMC89 08:30, 3 May 2020 (UTC)
ANI discussion involving you
There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. The thread is Disruptive forumshopping by Nehme1499. . --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 02:41, 4 May 2020 (UTC)
SPI
Regarding this SPI, Venue9 has been blocked only for his poor editing and would get unblocked if he promises to change his ways but if SPI has been concluded then he would need to appeal from his main account. So can you reopen SPI for further investigation? Aman Kumar Goel (Talk) 06:04, 4 May 2020 (UTC)
- No, I won't reopen it. Investigating socking is a waste of time when the user is blocked and unlikely to be unblocked. — JJMC89 06:23, 4 May 2020 (UTC)
Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Khadim ahlesunnah waljamaah
Thank you for your actions at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Khadim ahlesunnah waljamaah. But please could you also merge Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Anatomycbmcb/Archive into this case, and add Anatomy iggmc to the list of sockpuppets of Khadim ahlesunnah waljamaah.
Anatomy iggmc was blocked as a sockpuppet of Anatomycbmcb on 10 April 2020. But we now know that Anatomycbmcb is a sockpuppet of Khadim ahlesunnah waljamaah.-- Toddy1 (talk) 05:45, 5 May 2020 (UTC)

Objecting to your removal of NFCC images on the History of LGBTQ characters in animated series page.
I added them back to the article. The poster for Kipo and the Age of Wonderbeasts and the cover of the first volume of Princess Knight of fulfill the requirements of minimal use, and the use of the content increases "readers' understanding of the article topic, and its omission would be detrimental to that understanding," so please do not remove those images again, especially since I have created justifications for the use of those images. Every NFCC image I have used has a justification in keeping with Wikipedia's rules.--Historyday01 (talk) 17:44, 5 May 2020 (UTC)
- Policy is clear that you must establish consensus for inclusion once it has been challenged. — JJMC89 17:53, 5 May 2020 (UTC)
- Ok, you mean post something on the talk page? Also, why did you challenge it begin with? I mean, I had justifications for all the images.--Historyday01 (talk) 17:55, 5 May 2020 (UTC)
- My edit summaris linked to the relevant criteria of the policy. Just having a rationale, does not mean that the criteria are satisfied. — JJMC89 17:56, 5 May 2020 (UTC)
- Well, you didn't respond to my first question. In terms of the second question, I still believe you are incorrect, per my other post justifying the use of those images, fulfilling all the policy criteria.--Historyday01 (talk) 20:37, 5 May 2020 (UTC)

Just as a comment to JJMC89, its fine to remove images you think will quick fail NFCC, but I would strongly recommend not removing the rationale added to file pages to support their inclusion, at least as immediately as you did in some of these cases. There's no harm to extra, unused rationales on file pages, and this allows the image use or removal on that page to be discussed. After a few months, if no challenge has some and the image isn't then used on the page, then removing extra rationales is fine, but would be low-priority cleanup. --Masem (t) 13:57, 6 May 2020 (UTC)
Here are my justifications
Discussion about a page (article, file, etc.) belongs on that page's talk page, not here.

---|
After giving further justification of this image, and reducing the number of NFCC items on the History of LGBTQ characters in animated series: 2010s page from six to five, ensuring I am following the rule on minimal usage of NFCC images, I am also following what it says on https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Wikipedia:Non-free_content_criteria#Enforcement, where it says that "A file with a valid non-free-use rationale for some (but not all) articles it is used in will not be deleted. Instead, the file should be removed from the articles for which it lacks a non-free-use rationale, or a suitable rationale added. A file on which non-free use is claimed that is not used in any article (criterion 7) may be deleted seven days after notification. **A file in use in an article and uploaded after 13 July 2006 that does not comply with this policy 48 hours after notification to the uploading editor will be deleted. To avoid deletion, the uploading editor or another Wikipedian will need to provide a convincing non-free-use defense that satisfies all 10 criteria. For a file in use in an article that was uploaded before 13 July 2006, the 48-hour period is extended to seven days.**" For "[File:Princess Knight-1.jpg|thumb|left|180px|alt=Princess Knight cover|Cover for the first volume of Princess Knight from the Osamu Tezuka Manga Complete Works edition]" on the History of LGBTQ characters in animated series page...
For "[File:Kipo and the Age of Wonderbeasts.png|thumb|right|180px|alt=Kipo Season 1 promotional poster|Promotional poster for Season 1 of Kipo and the Age of Wonderbeasts.]" on the History of LGBTQ characters in animated series page
This cites five sources, which are as follows:
For "[File:Poemy ad.jpg|thumb|right|180px|alt=ADV ad for Puni Puni Poemi.|Puni Puni Poemy was advertised in North America as a successor to Excel Saga.]" on the History of LGBTQ characters in animated series: 2000s page,
As such, the lack of its presence would decrease the understanding of readers of the article topic, with its omission detrimental to its understanding. If I could find a better image, I would, but it seems to serve the purpose of the importance of the show as a whole, relating to the article itself.
For "[File:queerduck.png|thumb|left|180px|alt=Opening screen for episodes.|Opening splash screen for Queer Duck episodes.]" on the History of LGBTQ characters in animated series: 2000s page,
The two sources are:
If I could have used another image, I would have, but this is one of the only images of the show on Wikipedia, so I thought it would be a good way to make the article more interactive and increase interest in a show which moved forward LGBTQ representation in animation.
I think that's about it. This while form of justification seems extremely unnecessary, but be that as it may, I hope this helps you reconsider your decision to remove the content, allowing me to bring it back. I thought this was at least worth a shot, even though I expect it is unlikely you will change your mind.Historyday01 (talk) 20:32, 5 May 2020 (UTC) Jeez, you removed the other five NFCC images I had too. I spent a long time on those justifications but it doesn't matter to anyone like you. Don't you have a life except when removing NFCC images, which is a good portion of your contributions? That's basically all your bot does. I mean, seriously. I could write justifications for those too, but I'm not sure its even worth it because you'll just take them down again.--Historyday01 (talk) 23:17, 5 May 2020 (UTC) Just in case you don’t have the article in question on your watch list, Historyday01 left a personal attack against you in an edit summary. – 2.O.Boxing 23:32, 5 May 2020 (UTC)

You win this round
JJMC89, after getting some comments from the media copyright forum, I'm just going to give up. Feel free to delete those images, I literally don't care anymore. Its not worth my time to fight what you are doing. I'll just lose anyway, so whatever. Just know that people like you are the reason I am terrified to add any NFCC images to any of the articles I edit ever again, afraid you will tag them as "violations."Historyday01 (talk) 13:04, 6 May 2020 (UTC)
Bot keeps deleting non-free images
I'm trying to work on the page Mount & Blade in my sandbox, but the cover art for the game is not free, meaning that the bot continually deletes the images and I have to re-add them in. Can you stop the bot from deleting non-free images in sandboxes and user pages? Thank you, Aven13 17:41, 8 May 2020 (UTC)
- (talk page watcher) Hi Aven13. Non-free content can only be used in the article namespace per WP:NFCC#9 so that’s why the bot keeps removing it. Please don’t continue to add any non-free files to any pages in your user namespace as explained in WP:UP#Non-free files. It’s OK if you weren’t aware of this, but you’re likely going to end up being blocked if you continue to try and do such a thing. — Marchjuly (talk) 22:31, 8 May 2020 (UTC)

Guild of British Camera Technicians
Hi,
Can you please advise on why you felt the Guild of British Camera Technicians page was about an organisation that was not notable? It was my first submission and I thought I'd done a decent job to take have it deleted is a little deflating but I can take it! Some feedback from an experienced Wiki user such as yourself would be massively appreciated.
Is it possible to have it reinstated in some form that I can improve it? I used the GBFTE page as a guide to the sort of content that a) Wiki and b) the sector would be interested in and having read the various pages around Notability I think I can probably prove that the GBCT is a notable organistation.
Thanks in advance.
HMCLSPLYL2020 (talk) 10:02, 8 May 2020 (UTC)
- Please see the message on your talk page. It wasn't deleted for lack of notability. It was deleted because the article did not credibly indicate why the subject is important or significant. It looks like you've already recreated it in your sandbox. The Wikipedia:Teahouse is a good place to go for advice on editing. — JJMC89 22:33, 10 May 2020 (UTC)
Can you please disable your bot from requesting reduction for File:The World of Harry Potter 4 Pack.jpg. The file only reduces by 5KB and makes the text in the image difficult to read. --Osh33m (talk) 01:36, 7 May 2020 (UTC)
- I've seen posts about this on at least three different pages. Please keep it to one per WP:MULTI. To answer your question, I can but I won't. — JJMC89 22:18, 10 May 2020 (UTC)
- @JJMC89: I wasn't sure where the right place was to ask which is why I asked in all places. Why won't you stop it? --Osh33m (talk) 22:44, 10 May 2020 (UTC)
- The bot is functioning as intended. See WP:IMAGERES for guidance on this topic. — JJMC89 23:59, 10 May 2020 (UTC)
- I reviewed WP:IMAGERES and had this conversation with @Jonteemil: and believe the image qualifies for {{Non-free no reduce}}. --Osh33m (talk) 01:32, 11 May 2020 (UTC)

SPI
I am curious as to why you are saying I did not provide any evidence in Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/MarnetteD#Suspected sockpuppets when I gave you all of the diffs from the start which include the named user not reverting but editing the article using the exact same wording that is in dispute and a discussion going on through the talk page? Thank you. Galendalia CVU Member \ Chat Me Up 08:12, 11 May 2020 (UTC)
- The diffs did not support your conclusion that MarnetteD was editing logged out as that IP. It was so baseless that a CheckUser deleted the report after I closed it. — JJMC89 03:38, 12 May 2020 (UTC)
File:Icons of Filth artwork from the album Onward Christian Soldiers.jpg not cleanly deleted
It looks like something didn't work when you deleted File:Icons of Filth artwork from the album Onward Christian Soldiers.jpg per the FfD. I don't see the image but I do see "(223 × 223 pixels, file size: 18 KB, MIME type: image/jpeg)" and the file history table. The Squirrel Conspiracy (talk) 04:28, 12 May 2020 (UTC)

Hi JJMC89, could you and your bot move Category:Railway stations in China by opening year to Category:Railway stations in China by year of opening as was done for the other subcategories of Category:Railway stations by year of opening relating to Canada, Russia and the United States please. Hugo999 (talk) 09:15, 8 May 2020 (UTC)
- @Hugo999: If you think that category should have been moved per Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2020 April 13#Railway stations by opening/closing, then please discuss with bibliomaniac15, who closed the discussion. Otherwise, please start a new discussion at WP:CFD or use WP:CFDS as applicable. (FYI BrownHairedGirl) My bot just carries out closes as listed at WP:CFDW by an admin. — JJMC89 22:27, 10 May 2020 (UTC)
- @Hugo999: I suggest you create a new discussion about it at WP:CFD. In the above discussion you added it in rather late, three days after the typical seven day discussion period, so I didn't move that one. bibliomaniac15 22:38, 10 May 2020 (UTC)
- I agree that this isn't JJMC89's call. JJMC89 is just the bot operator, and the bot just follows instructions by the closer.
- I also agree with Bibliomaniac15's close; the addition was too late.
- But this is speediable by both WP:C2E and WP:C2C. @Hugo999, I suggest you list it at WP:CFDS. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 23:21, 10 May 2020 (UTC)

Contesting Laal Singh Chaddha
Hello, I do not believe it was the right decision to decline the histmerge of Laal Singh Chaddha and I have good reasons for disagreeing with your choice. First, my draft version of this article was created on September 16, 2019, over a month before the separate mainspace article was created on October 31, 2019. Second, User:CAP202, the creator of the mainspace article, clearly copy and pasted the information from my draft into his separate mainspace article. This user is also a band sockpuppet of User:PankhilSen. I find it very distressing that a clear act of vandalism, brought on by a known sock puppet, is not being dealt with or fixed in any meaningful way. I highly suggest in some action against this matter, as I started this article first. Cardei012597 (talk) 04:27, 13 May 2020 (UTC)
- 1) You need to stop forum shopping. Your history merge request has been delcined muliple times by multiple admins due to parallel histories. 2) CAP202 didn't copy your work. When CAP202 created the article your draft looked like this. Nothing is the same between those. The article was then edited by others and ended up like this before you edited it to integrate content from your draft. 3) You need to educate yourself on what valdalism is and is not. As a rollbacker, you should know that what you have described is not vandalism. 4) It doesn't matter who started the page or gets credit for starting the page. Also, to be clear, you started a draft, which was never an article. — JJMC89 06:00, 13 May 2020 (UTC)
- Ok, I won't bother you anymore. I'll stop trying to histmerge. I'll drop it. Take care. Cardei012597 (talk) 06:05, 13 May 2020 (UTC)
Unfair removal of image
You removed an image I added to the page John Prentice (cartoonist), yet you have let it stand on the Young Romance page, even though I sourced the same file they did. Please explain. Packer1028 (talk) 21:04, 13 May 2020 (UTC)
- (talk page watcher) Packer1028. There's was nothing unfair about the removal of the file; the bot just did what its was supposed to do: removing files lacking non-free content use rationales from articles in accordance with WP:NFCCE. Each use of a non-free file is required to have a separate, specific non-free use rationale as explained in WP:NFCC#10c and WP:NFC#Implementation and those which don't for a specific use can be removed at any time. You add the file to the article, but didn't add a non-free use rationale for its use to the file's page; so, it was removed. If you want to stop the bot from removing the file, you're going to need to provide the missing rationale. Before you do so, however, you should take a look at WP:JUSTONE, WP:OTHERIMAGE, WP:NFC#cite_note-3, item 6 of WP:NFC#UUI and WP:NFC#CS. Copyrighted cover art is often allowed to be uploaded per item 1 of WP:NFCI, but generally only when the cover art is being used for primary identification purposes at the top of or in the main infobox of a stand-alone article about the work in question. Other types of non-free use are much harder to justify and generally require that the cover art (the actual cover art itself, not the artist who created it) be the subject of sourced critical commentary that is not WP:UNDUE or considered sufficient as text alone per WP:FREER. So, a book cover might be OK to use for primary identification purposes in an article entirely about the book itself, but would generally not be considered OK in an article about the author, the publishing company, the graphic artist, etc. without some pretty strong justification for it's non-free use in such an article. So, those are some things to keep in mind if you're going to try and justify the file's non-free use in the article about Prentice. Perhaps instead of adding this file to the article, you might have better luck trying to find a photo of Prentice to add instead. Wikipedia does allow non-free images of deceased individuals to be uploaded and used for primary identification purposes per item 10 of WP:NFCI as long as there are no freely licensed equivalent which can be created or found. So, perhaps there's an image of Prentice that you can find that could be used instead. -- Marchjuly (talk) 22:00, 13 May 2020 (UTC)
Use of official logo for Salem Kolleg Comment
Hallo JJMC87, if you look at the official website www.salemkolleg.de you will see that the logo is correct. Could you please explain why you deleted it? Thanks, --Baekemm (talk) 13:53, 13 May 2020 (UTC)
- (talk page watcher) Hi Baekemm. JJMC89 (not JJMC87) didn't delete the image. It was only removed from the article by JJMC89 bot because its use in the article didn't comply with Wikipedia's non-free content use policy. The bot left an edit summary that contained a link to WP:NFC#Implementation. Did you take a look at that page? All non-free files are required to have two things: (1) a file copyright tag and (2) a separate and specific non-free use rationale for each use of the file. This particular file does have a copyright tag, but it only has a non-free use rationale for the the use in Schule Schloss Salem; so, that's why the bot removed the file from Salem Kolleg and it will keep removing the file from that article as long as there's no non-free use rationale for that particular use. A simple fix would be too simply add the missing rationale to the file's page; however, as explained in WP:JUSTONE, things aren't always so simple and adding a missing rationale doesn't automatically make a non-free use policy compliant. In this case, there might be an issue with item 17 of WP:NFC#UUI. Wikipedia's non-free content use policy generally allows copyright logos to be uploaded and used for primary identification purposes at the top of or in the main infobox of articles, but that is generally limited to articles about parent organizations. A university, for example, may have many departments or campuses, etc. (i.e. things considered to be "child entities"), but the main logo is generally only considered acceptable for use in the main article about the university. For the other articles, it's generally considered better to use logos specific to the individual departments or campuses (if such logos exist) or even no logo at all. This is because Wikipedia policy encourages us to try and minimize non-free use as much as we can. Since the first time a non-free file is used is already considered to be rather exceptional with respect to WP:COPY#Guidelines for images and other media files, any additional uses are considered to be even more exceptional and require even stronger justifications for non-free use. I'm not saying it's totally impossible to add the file to the Kolleg article, but you're going to have to provide a non-free use rationale that clarifies how this additional use satisfies relevant policy. Providing such a rationale is no guarantee and another editor who disagrees with your assessment may still challenge the rationale and start a discussion about it or tag it has being disputed; it should, however, stop bots from removing the file from the article. -- Marchjuly (talk) 21:43, 13 May 2020 (UTC)
- @Marchjuly: Thank you very much for taking the time to explain this matter in detail! I will give the issues further consideration before taking any action. --Baekemm (talk) 22:24, 13 May 2020 (UTC)

If you have any more questions about this, you can also ask for assistance at WP:MCQ or WT:NFCC.Please try and be careful not to remove comments (even unintentionally) made by others when you respond to posts or add new comments per WP:TPO. Your last edit accidentally removed my reply to the thread immediately below this one. I’m assuming this was just a mistake, but doing such a thing can lead to serious problems with others if you’re not careful and you don’t clearly give a very good policy or guideline reason for doing so. — Marchjuly (talk) 23:09, 13 May 2020 (UTC)
- @Marchjuly: Yes, sorry, that was certainly an accident. In fact I can't understand how it happened as the history doesn't seem to show a deletion, but I will be more alert now.--Baekemm (talk) 22:12, 14 May 2020 (UTC)

Discussion of renaming 'Media companies' category to 'Mass media companies'?
@JJMC89: - Hello! I saw that your "JJMC89 bot III" has gone through pages moving them from the category "Media companies" to "Mass media companies". I see that request on Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Speedy, but I am curious - was there any discussion of this change anywhere? I'm just curious to learn more about the rationale. Any pointers to discussion would be appreciated. Thanks. - Dyork (talk) 15:22, 14 May 2020 (UTC)

Checking deleted article
Hi, I was reviewing Draft:Stjepan Glavač and I noticed you deleted the mainspace article, Stjepan Glavač, under G5. Would you mind checking if the draft has the same content as the deleted article? He looks notable but I don't want to accept a sock draft. Thanks, SpicyMilkBoy (talk) 12:46, 15 May 2020 (UTC)
- @SpicyMilkBoy: The draft is nearly identical to the deleted article. — JJMC89 19:00, 15 May 2020 (UTC)
- Thanks, will note that on the draft page. SpicyMilkBoy (talk) 19:09, 15 May 2020 (UTC)
Deletion review for Comparison of Nikon DSLR cameras
An editor has asked for a deletion review of Comparison of Nikon DSLR cameras. Because you closed the deletion discussion for this page, speedily deleted it, or otherwise were interested in the page, you might want to participate in the deletion review. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Runnerphil712 (talk • contribs) 18:58, 17 May 2020 (UTC)
SPI archive notice?
I'm curious about this edit of yours. I had made it a redirect because that's what Callanecc suggested I do. -- RoySmith (talk) 23:36, 15 May 2020 (UTC)
- I'm not sure why Callanecc told you to redirect it. WP:SPI/PROC#Advanced clerking says to use {{SPI archive notice}} when moving/merging cases. — JJMC89 05:53, 19 May 2020 (UTC)
Rymax23 and Atomic Meltdown
Hi there! Just wondering, but if these two users are the same person, should Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Atomic Meltdown/Archive be merged into the other one? BOZ (talk) 02:51, 16 May 2020 (UTC)
- They aren't the same person. If they were, then yes. — JJMC89 05:57, 19 May 2020 (UTC)
Hi JJMC89. Since you’re an SPI clerk as well as an admin, perhaps you could take a look at this. The suspected sock is still soft-blocked and the suspected master hasn’t edit in about a week. Moreover, the local file that was being deleted has been deleted per F7 and Commons’ version is currently being discussed at a Commons DR. So, if you feel that there‘s really no need for any admin action here (except perhaps for just a warning if anything), I’m fine with having the SPI closed as such. — Marchjuly (talk) 03:25, 16 May 2020 (UTC)
- I reblocked the sock for socking. — JJMC89 05:58, 19 May 2020 (UTC)
Wikinews
Some of the {{wikinews}} variants have been merged into the main template. I wasn't sure what you wanted to do with User:JJMC89 bot/Wikinews importer so I thought I'd let you know about the changes so you could update it appropriately. Primefac (talk) 00:40, 17 May 2020 (UTC)
- Thanks for letting me know. I've cleaned up the page to remove mentions of that template. — JJMC89 05:59, 19 May 2020 (UTC)
Change the page to Xǔ (state)
Please delete the Xǔ (state) redirect page and change or move the Xu (Henan) to Xǔ (state) no redirect and only one page. Thank you! K.b.cheng (talk) 10:17, 18 May 2020 (UTC)
- It has already been moved back. — JJMC89 06:01, 19 May 2020 (UTC)
ACC
HI, last week I sent a request to rejoin the ACC team after being denied for not having enough edits, This has since been fixed. I have head from some other tool admins that it was received, but nothing else. Is there a problem, or does it just take some time, Is there a backlog? I am not trying to be impatient, just curious. Thanks,{{u|wylie39}} {Talk}
18:59, 15 May 2020 (UTC)
- We do have a backlog of requests and appeals to join the team. I sent an email to the rest of the tool admins to follow-up on our outstanding requests/appeals. — JJMC89 06:03, 19 May 2020 (UTC)
- JJMC89, Thanks.

Ian Foote
I want to create a page about this referee but it see it has extended-confirmed-protected and can be edited only by extended confirmed users. Can you fix it? --196.119.95.98 (talk) 12:07, 23 May 2020 (UTC)

Gouri G Kishan
I moved the page without moving the history and am sorry. Kindly merge the history of the page. Thank you. --TamilMirchi —Preceding undated comment added 19:54, 23 May 2020 (UTC)
- There are parallel histories so the pages cannot be history merged. — JJMC89 22:33, 27 May 2020 (UTC)
Being a moderator, you always checked my page List of Pakistani Peace Laureates and fixed the errors every time for which I was always thankful to you for your support and cooperation but today I just checked my page and have found some other moderator removing the descriptions and ruining my entire page. All my efforts and struggle have been ruined. Nawab Afridi (talk) 17:09, 25 May 2020 (UTC)
- I never edited the page; my bot only removed some images from it. Diannaa removed the copyright violations and has discussed the issue on your talk page. — JJMC89 23:37, 27 May 2020 (UTC)
Why was this category not moved to Category:Deaths from the COVID-19 pandemic in Indiana? Only this category was missing. --Francisco (talk) 18:15, 25 May 2020 (UTC)

- Thanks for tracing that; I apologise for causing the extra work. This is now being processed. – Fayenatic London 07:14, 28 May 2020 (UTC)
Quick note on Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/PKHilliam
Thanks for your edits to Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/PKHilliam.
Now I am confused. Do you want me to supply more diffs or what? Basically, PKHilliam would unilaterally change links from uncyclopedia.co to uncyclopedia.ca. I wanted to act fast before this case becomes stale, but I can provide more evidence if needed. :) Aasim 05:42, 29 May 2020 (UTC)
- For example, if I could explain, here is a diff with the edit summary "POV pushing", and here is a diff by one of the (now blocked) socks saying "Please stop pushing your unauthorized fork". This diff uses Twinkle, this diff also uses Twinkle. Not to mention, these diffs unilaterally and without consensus change the "official site" from .co to .ca. This is no longer a problem because the page is XCON protected now and I got consensus on the talk page to include both forks on the Uncyclopedia article. Oh, and these diffs are functionally identical, I just realized taking a second look. These all seem like red flags. Should I open another report or is this enough behavioral evidence to suggest sockpuppetry or meatpuppetry? Aasim 06:00, 29 May 2020 (UTC)
- The diffs that you included in the SPI report are both from Romartus Imperator, therefore they don't connect that account to any other. That aside, Romartus Imperator was already reported in the SPI case; see the archives. On looking into it, the 08 May 2020 report was closed without a behavioral investigation for some reason. I've reopened your report quoting the evidence provided here. — JJMC89 06:31, 29 May 2020 (UTC)
Category:Hospitals in Paraná
In addition, please move Category:Hospitals in Paraná to Category:Hospitals in Paraná (state), like other subcategories in Category:Paraná (state). Thanks. --Francisco (talk) 17:24, 29 May 2020 (UTC)
- You need to follow the process outlined at WP:CFD. — JJMC89 04:18, 30 May 2020 (UTC)
This bot is repeatedly removing an image from the page VanossGaming even after it was resized to match the Wikipedia guidelines. The image being removed is File:EvanFong.png. Delta fiver (talk) (UTC) 07:15, 30 May 2020 (UTC)
- It was automatically removed because it does not have a non-free use ratinale. Even if it did have one, a free photo could be taken, so it is replaceable. — JJMC89 08:13, 30 May 2020 (UTC)
Interlanguage image linking
Hi JJMC89, I want to know how to add an image hosted on non-English Wikipedia to English Wikipedia articles. Thank you TheBirdsShedTears (talk) 08:02, 31 May 2020 (UTC)
- (talk page watcher) Hi TheBirdsShedTears. Only files uploaded to Wikimedia Commons (these are called global files) or files uploaded to English Wikipedia (these are called called local files) can be added to English Wikipedia articles; files uploaded locally to other language Wikipedias cannot not be added to English Wikipedia articles and be displayed. They might be able to be add as an WP:EL or a Template:interlanguage link, but they will not be displayed. — Marchjuly (talk) 09:15, 31 May 2020 (UTC)
