Bonjour A1Cafel, Please where is the panorama in File:Tallinn Folklore of Estonia in2015 (4).jpg? This is the Troika brand which is a Russian restaurant and tavern look at Restaurants in Tallinn. Regard Pierre André (talk) 10:07, 19 September 2023 (UTC)

The figure is creative enough to be protected by copyright. Due to lack of FOP in Estonia, permission from the creator is required. --A1Cafel (talk) 10:27, 19 September 2023 (UTC)

Wrong licenses added to files

You put the license PD US NAVY instead of the accurate license- PD-USGov-Military (which indicates that it is by the "Department of Defense"). The photographer is Navy personnel, however, he is assigned to the Secretary of Defense at The Pentagon (Department of Defense).

This is not a US Navy photo. The photo license belongs to the organization to which the photographer is working, which is the Department of Defense, not the US Navy.

Please, change the license on this file and the others.

Help in adding Kazakh FOP category

Hello. I'm requesting your help to add Category:Kazakhstani FOP cases/pending to the nominations made by KazyKazyKazakhstan (see here). The user does not seem to notice (or ignores) my message of adding that category to the FOP deletion requests the user made. There are too many deletion requests made by this user, and I cannot categorize them all due to personal / real-life reasons. Thanks. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 05:35, 3 October 2023 (UTC)

Category Tate Modern

Hi A1Cafel, I have noticed you were rather involved in deletions and I found some like File:London - Tate Britain Turner Prize 2016 (3).jpg in the category Tate Modern with which I am not sure what to do. Delete them or not? It is allowed to have them if they were permanently exhibited in a public place I believe, but I do not know if they are permanently or only temporarily in the Tate Modern. Maybe you can have a look at it. Paradise Chronicle (talk) 11:24, 10 October 2023 (UTC)

This was removed by A1Cafel with the summary "Doing by an admin". I'm not sure what this means, but I'm restoring it. A response, including an explanation on why these files were uploaded, what action you have taken (if any) to clean up, and why you chose to remove this section, would be appreciated. —‍Mdaniels5757 (talk • contribs) 15:55, 29 September 2023 (UTC)
I thought he is asking someone to tag and deal with the duplicates. I saw some admins are already doing it, so there is no need to mention others. Those files are a set of a conference called "Supporting Syria Conference", I have checked some and they do not appear on Commons, but probably a few were missed. No action can be taken, as they already tagged by User:OptimusPrimeBot. --A1Cafel (talk) 16:06, 29 September 2023 (UTC)

@Ooligan: What is the amount of duplicate versus non-duplicate uploads with your examples? Like is A1Cafel uploading 5 images that are all duplicates or is it only 5 out of say every 200? --Adamant1 (talk) 00:45, 30 September 2023 (UTC)
@Adamant1.
First, 15 duplicates above are from a single Flickr album here: https://www.flickr.com/photos/dfid/albums/72157664211672906
Those are the duplicates I noticed before they were deleted.
Add these 16 duplicates that were deleted before I noticed:

That is 31 duplicate uploads from just one Flickr album.
There are 53 non-duplicative uploads
These uploads start at timeline: 10:27 25 September 2023 to 10:31 25 September 2023 https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3AContributions&target=A1Cafel&namespace=all&tagfilter=&start=2023-09-25&end=2023-09-25&limit=1000
Your question- "What is the amount of duplicate versus non-duplicate uploads with your examples?
Answer 31 to 53. -- Ooligan (talk) 07:01, 30 September 2023 (UTC)
Should be 31 to 82. --A1Cafel (talk) 07:28, 30 September 2023 (UTC)
@Adamant1, on 30 September you wrote me this question:
"What is the amount of duplicate versus non-duplicate uploads with your examples? Like is A1Cafel uploading 5 images that are all duplicates or is it only 5 out of say every 200?"
A1Cafel himself wrote that answered your question that he uploaded 31 duplicate files out of 82 files total. See above where he wrote, "should be 31 to 82."
He is incorrect.
In this example, one Flickr album had 84 total photo files.
31 duplicate files of 84 total files uploaded.
However, your question was "... duplicate versus non-duplicate uploads..."
There were 53 non-duplicate uploads.
Your answer is 31 versus 53 or that
36% of the 84 uploaded files from this one Flickr album were duplicates of already existing Commons files. --Ooligan (talk) 09:56, 19 October 2023 (UTC)

I mean, it's not a great ratio for sure. But then you also seem unable to just let this die on the vine when everyone else seems to have essentially moved on at this point, which isn't super great either. So maybe go do something else and leave the ANU complaint to people who aren't as involved in this as you are to figure things out. Really, maybe I'd care more if you and a couple of other people clearly weren't it just to axe grind over A1Cafel nominating your uploads for deletion, but you all have bludgeoned and nitpicked it past the point of creditability. Sorry, but you really need to just drop it and move on. Otherwise your just making the whole thing about yourself instead of A1Cafel's behavior. --Adamant1 (talk) 10:17, 19 October 2023 (UTC)

Help in adding categories

Hello again. I'm requesting again your help in categorizing DRs by KazyKazyKazakhstan, by adding relevant categories based on the nominated works' countries: see here again. Due to busy college schedule now, I cannot categorize the DRs. Also, while that user categorizes some, those were categorized through HotCat and not manually, therefore lacking "noinclude" tags and collaterally categorizing the daily listing.

Your files with no existing category (other that "hidden" categories)

Do you intend on creating this category? Category:Tony Blinken in November 2023. Thanks, -- Ooligan (talk) 20:09, 2 November 2023 (UTC)

50 + files with NO categories from the United States Secretary of State's Flickr account.

More mass uploaded files with NO categories. More than 50 uncategorized files from September 29th.

Again, only a single "hidden" category, which prevents a BOT from tagging these photos as "uncategorized," where these files would otherwise be brought to the attention of other editors on this project.

These orphan files are all from the high profile United States Secretary of State's Flickr account.

Suggestion needed

Hi @A1Cafel as South Africa doesn't have FOP all the images in this category will be deleted. I have uploaded few images of the same museum. Shall I keep it or delete them? Jnanaranjan Sahu (ଜ୍ଞାନ) talk 18:56, 5 November 2023 (UTC)

Why do you think they would need to be deleted? It is simply not true that lack of FOP requires images to be deleted. Also, given the number of A1Cafel's uploads which still keep needing to be deleted for copyright reasons, they are not someone I would be seeking advice from over copyright. Andy Dingley (talk) 20:36, 5 November 2023 (UTC)
@Jnanaranjan sahu: It depends, simply lack of FoP in South Africa is not always correct. For example, we need to know whether the copyright holder has been dead for 50 years (in South Africa only, different countries had different p.m.a.), the artwork is creative enough that exceed TOO, they are the subject of the photo (i.e. can get rid of copyright violation per de minimis), etc. --A1Cafel (talk) 03:11, 6 November 2023 (UTC)
Hi @Andy Dingley @A1Cafel Thank you for your inputs. I have uploaded many images years ago in 2018 and eventually photos are getting deleted and fear my account may be blcoked for that reason. I am worried and want to take approprate action on all my old photos. Considering the FOP issue in South Africa I have many images that falls under the same. Here are some images1, images2, images3, images4 etc. Please suggest me propper action. Thank You. Jnanaranjan Sahu (ଜ୍ଞାନ) talk 03:41, 6 November 2023 (UTC)

I appreciate the tip

Hello there @A1Cafel

You left a message about images and the automated Flickr Review system. I appreciate you pointing it out. Cheers! MatthewDalhousie (talk) 02:56, 11 November 2023 (UTC)

And yes, I think I've figured out how to use the automated tools better now, thought I just tried to use that other bot you mentioned and it wasn't easy. I hope it's okay if I use the tool that's provided with the upload wizard page. That I can manage! MatthewDalhousie (talk) 03:24, 11 November 2023 (UTC)

Good evening! Could you work on categorizing the files I downloaded from the website of the President of Armenia? MasterRus21thCentury (talk) 15:25, 21 November 2023 (UTC)

Good night! My question is this: will you take part in uploading materials from the website of the President of Armenia? There is huge potential here for the development of Armenian topics on Wikimedia Commons, given the complete archive of Serzh Sargsyan's presidency in 2008-2018 and the transition to a parliamentary republic following the 2015 referendum.

Da Du offensichtlich zu wenig Kenntnis vom deutschen Urheberrecht hast und daher Dir nicht bekannt ist, dass dies eine Veröffentlichung des Staates Deutschland ist, für welche FOP gar nicht gilt, wäre es mE besser, Du würdest zukünftig einfach Deine Finger von solchen Löschanträgen lassen oder Dir vorher fachlichen Rat einholen.

34 more Flickr Duplicates tagged.

Fyi, I tagged another thirty-four (34) your recent duplicate Flickr file uploads today. These are different from the six (6) duplicate Flickr uploads that another volunteer and I had just previously tagged. So, that is forty (40) duplicates in less than two days.

I note that you have reverted that information from your talk page here: [4].

Does the "archive BOT" on your talk page, archive your manual reverts of talk page content or will this reverted text never appear within the talk page's "archive"? -- Ooligan (talk) 02:42, 27 January 2024 (UTC)

@A1CafelPinging regarding my question. -- Ooligan (talk) 18:00, 3 February 2024 (UTC)
Appears in my talk page history. --A1Cafel (talk) 03:38, 4 February 2024 (UTC)
So you've hidden it from searches. Convenient. Andy Dingley (talk) 13:07, 4 February 2024 (UTC)
@Andy Dingley- So, if talk page text is deleted, instead of normal archiving, that deleted text is "hidden from searches" by other Commons volunteers using the search function? --Ooligan (talk) 03:39, 17 February 2024 (UTC)
Yes, only the current versions of pages are searched. That's why we use archiving, moving old content 'sideways' to a different page name, rather than expecting search to work across the histories. Andy Dingley (talk) 03:44, 17 February 2024 (UTC)
I did not know that there was a way of effecting the search function results for anyone doing research on past edits. Thank you @Andy Dingley for your explaination. --Ooligan (talk) 06:42, 18 February 2024 (UTC)

{{Not-PD-US-URAA|Philippines}}

I have noticed that im many of your deletion requests (eg. 14+15 Feb 2024) you have incorrectly inserted the template {{Not-PD-US-URAA|Philippines}} which clearly states “This template may not be used for files uploaded after 1 March 2012.” Therefore, should you be unblocked again and resume sane participation please read terms and conditions. --Qualitätssicherung (talk) 16:56, 5 March 2024 (UTC)

Check suspected murals or outdoor artworks

Hello. May I request you to check images at Category:City of Malolos Integrated School. Unsure which of the images are OK (DM) or not. I'm still busy at transferring compliant local enwiki images of Patrickroque01 to Commons (with some artwork or architecture status reviews of course).
