Category:Files of Interlaken with bad names has been listed at Commons:Deletion requests so that the community can discuss whether it should be kept or not. We would appreciate it if you could go to voice your opinion about this at its entry.

If you created this category, please note that the fact that it has been proposed for deletion does not necessarily mean that we do not value your kind contribution. It simply means that one person believes that there is some specific problem with it.

Please remember to respond to and – if appropriate – contradict the arguments supporting deletion. Arguments which focus on the nominator will not affect the result of the nomination. Thank you!

In addition, I noticed that you've made malformed deletion requests: including a {{Delete}} tag on the subpage, and omitting reason, year, month, day, notification, and transclusion. Here, {{Delete}} is not for speedy deletion, please see COM:DP. When you want to delete a page by manually using the {{Delete}} template (rather than the automatic Nominate for deletion or Nominate category for discussion tool in the Tools menu on the sidebar per COM:DR#Starting requests and COM:CFD#Starting requests), you must follow the instructions in the template, including the "Click here to show further instructions" portion (or Commons:Deletion requests/Listing a request manually policy or the "By hand" portion of COM:CFD#Starting requests, normally collapsed), otherwise you will create a lot of work for other people. Warning: such edits are not tolerated and have led to account blocks, as "We cannot work here with people who are not willing to follow our procedures, in particular for deletion requests."   — 🇺🇦Jeff G. please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 13:08, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Jeff. I clearly didnt intend to create more work for others. I've been inactive for quite a long time, and am not used to all the procedures anymore. Soooo, sorry. Trying to improve. Rectilinium (talk) 14:08, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Oh, one more thing. I found these two folders lately with a few pictures in it, and I tried to identify and rename them. Thought it would be ok to delete. But if that kind of categories is generally used for files with bad names aso. for other cities or countries aswell... definitely keep. Rectilinium (talk) 14:12, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Rectilinium: For categories which are guaranteed never to be filled, you can use {{SD}} with parameter C2 (see criterion COM:CSD#C2), to wit {{SD|C2}}.   — 🇺🇦Jeff G. please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 14:32, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
