Reverting on COM:sandbox

Hi, you don't need to revert on a sandbox unless it is obvious harassment, copyvio, spamming, or LTA edits. A sandbox is explicitly a testing ground for new editors, please leave it be. Thanks! Masum Reza📞 16:23, 20 January 2020 (UTC)

@Masumrezarock100: I reverted because that IP was removing comment which is not supposed to be removed but, I agree that rollback wasn't necessary. My apologize, thanks for the note. -- CptViraj (📧) 16:55, 20 January 2020 (UTC)
You don't need to worry, Hazard-bot will clean it up eventually. . Masum Reza📞
Ah, I thought that it won't clean if sandbox template or the comment is removed. -- CptViraj (📧) 17:03, 20 January 2020 (UTC)

Image review request

A treat for you!

Can you please license-review these 4 images. I am asking because these images are quite rare. Sorry for disturbing you again.— Vaibhavafro💬 04:19, 8 February 2020 (UTC)

Script malfunction

Hi, your use of a script blanked 6 pages, they are listed at special:search/insource:batchcomplete. Please repair without any loss of edits made after, and notify script author if it's not user error. Thank you.--BevinKacon (talk) 17:03, 8 July 2020 (UTC)

I think that your move was a mistake

Hi, I believe that File:2020-06-21 Bletchley Flyover Replacement (13).jpg is a wrong name, 06 is june, and the photo is made in July according to information, exif, and old file name. ℺ Gone Postal ( ) 18:49, 10 August 2020 (UTC)

@Gone Postal: Drat. As CptViraj says, you're right – sorry. That probably means I've requested for most of the contents of Category:2020 replacement of Bletchley Flyover to be moved to the wrong names. I will attempt to sort out the issue... WT79 (talk) 06:48, 11 August 2020 (UTC)

An offering for our new administrator from your comrades...

CptViraj, congratulations! You now have administrator rights on Commons. Please take a moment to read the Commons:Administrators page and watchlist related pages (in particular Commons:Administrators' noticeboard and its subpages), before launching yourself into page deletions, page protections, account blockings or modifications of protected pages. The majority of the actions of administrators can be reversed by the other admins, except for history merges which must thus be treated with particular care. Have a look at the list of Gadgets (on the bottom there are the ones specifically for admins – however, for example the UserMessages are very helpful too).

Please feel free to join us on IRC: #wikimedia-commons webchat on irc.libera.chat. There is also a channel for Commons admins, which may be useful for more sensitive topics, or coordination among administrators: #wikimedia-commons-admin webchat.

You may find Commons:Guide to adminship to be useful reading. You can find the admin backlog overview at COM:AB.

Please also check or add your entry to the List of administrators and the related lists by language and date it references.

Hi Sir

Hi sir, How to upload the series image for Simple English Wikipedia. Ppkalabika (talk) 14:16, 8 September 2020 (UTC)

@Ppkalabika: Hi. Album covers, title cards, film posters are considered fair use material and they're aren't allowed on Wikimedia Commons. However some wikis (i.e English Wikipedia, Hindi Wikipedia) hosts fair use material locally but Simple English Wikipedia doesn't allow file uploading. So that means you can't upload the series image for Simple English Wikipedia unless it is freely licensed. -- CptViraj (talk) 15:13, 8 September 2020 (UTC)

About creating campaigns on commons

Moved this conversation to your talk page

Does one not need permission to create a campaign page (to add photographs)? Cause when I try to create a campaign, it says "You are not allowed to edit the campaign namespace" and anything I add to that page remains a script.. Thank you! Tanyasingh (talk) 07:27, 14 September 2020 (UTC)

Module:Departments of France

હાય, you completely protected (contrary to what is written, it says "semi-protection") this page so I need you to make a small change. The Côtes-d'Armor department was called Côtes-du-Nord before. So some people created categories like "Côtes-du-Nord in the 19th century" which is the correct name for this time. But, as it is not the name from nowadays, this category can't be shown in templates like {{Departments of France|prefix=:Category:|suffix=in the 19th century}} as the only name in the database is Côtes-d'Armor. So could you please add a line under the line ['22' ] = { "Côtes-d'Armor", qid = 'Q3349', }, that would just say "Côtes-du-Nord", exactly like there are e.g. one line 'Creuse' and one line 'Creuse (department)'. Thank you very much.--Birdie (talk) 23:58, 16 September 2020 (UTC)

@Birdie: Hi, I'm still learning LUA so can you please check, Is this correct?:
           
                ['21' ] = { "Côte-d'Or",                                   qid = 'Q3342', },
		['22' ] = { "Côtes-d'Armor",
                            "Côtes-du-Nord",                               qid = 'Q3349', },
		['23' ] = { 'Creuse (department)',
		            'Creuse',                                      qid = 'Q3353', },
		['24' ] = { 'Dordogne',                                    qid = 'Q3357', },
		['25' ] = { 'Doubs',                                       qid = 'Q3361', },

Full protection of the daily changing map for a month

Can I ask you how, from now on, users will be able to update, or request updates regarding the file you protected a few hours ago? This file changes daily, sometimes multiple times daily. Will there be requests section where users can ask for the file to be updated? HersiliaAramazd (talk) 18:56, 23 October 2020 (UTC)

@HersiliaAramazd: Hi. You can use file's talk page to request updates, make sure to add {{Edit request}} to your request. If I lower the protection to semi-protection then it won't stop edit warring. -- CptViraj (talk) 03:19, 24 October 2020 (UTC)

Karabakh War Map

Hi. As the author of the Karabakh war map, I cannot make the necessary arrangements for the map (except the progress of the parties). These arrangements can be changes regarding village names and location of settlements. If I am not mistaken, you set a period of 1 month. This period is too long. I request this issue to be resolved.--Emreculha (talk) 19:13, 24 October 2020 (UTC)

User:AureliaDragomir

Hi CaptViraj. You previously tried to advise this user about COM:L at User talk:AureliaDragomir#File copyright status, but since then the user has continued to upload logos for professional soccer/football teams as their own work. I'm not sure if they just didn't understand your post, don't understand file copyright licensing or just don't care one way or another. The three files I tagged for speedy deletion all seem to be above COM:TOO United States and not otherwise PD per COM:ROMANIA; if, on the other hand, you think it's better off to discuss them at COM:DR then please let me know. FWIW, there are local non-free files of each logo uploaded English Wikipedia as non-free content; so, at least English Wikipedia is treating them as COM:FAIR. Regardless, I do think this user might be misunderstanding what "own work" means when it comes to Commons.

Would you mind taking a look a this; perhaps one last warning (i.e. {{End of copyvios}}) would be better than a block at this time if the files are a problem and Commons can't keep them. -- Marchjuly (talk) 06:34, 30 October 2020 (UTC)

@Marchjuly: Final warning given. If copyvio continues then please report them at COM:ANB. Thanks! -- CptViraj (talk) 06:48, 30 October 2020 (UTC)

User:地下高雄

Hi CptViraj. For the last month, I experienced a lot of psychological pressure because I have been personally attacked by User:地下高雄. I feel hurt by that saying ”但就像心理疾病一樣“ (translate into English: ”but it's like mental illness“). His words has a direct negative effects on my mind, and steal my energy even more than the mental illness (knowing that I am angry does not mean that I have mental illness), and it takes time for me to recover from feeling weary, regretful and unwise. In summary, his response here is the best evidence of his personal attack, rude or uncivil behavior that is outlined in this report.--Kai3952 (talk) 18:30, 30 October 2020 (UTC)

A small pro tip

In case of IPv6 addresses do not block a single address but the whole /64 subnet. Just like the steward did: Special:Contributions/2601:644:300:4740:F11A:40CE:77DC:7759. --jdx Re: 08:40, 14 December 2020 (UTC)

@Jdx: Hi. I didn't know there are multiple IPs vandalising otherwise I would have range blocked. Thanks! -- CptViraj (talk) 10:04, 14 December 2020 (UTC)
It does not matter if it is single or multiple IPv6 addresses from a /64 range. Just block the whole /64 subnet. The point is that common practice of telecoms is to assign a /64 range to one customer – virtually you may treat a /64 range as a single IPv6 address. There is even an interesting proposal related to /64 ranges: m:Community Wishlist Survey 2021/Admins and patrollers#Improve display of multiple IPv6 contributions by a single editor. --jdx Re: 11:04, 14 December 2020 (UTC)

Sockpuppetry, abusively using multiple accounts

Othayoth shankaran and Kalangot are the same person abusively using multiple accounts. Othayoth has been repeatedly uploading copyright violated images [2], including a $65,000 priced painting as his own work in public domain. English Wikipedia has already identified sockpuppetry, both these accounts belongs to Adhithya Kiran Chekavar (see Kalangot), Othayoth shankaran was indeffed for WP:NOTHERE and behavioral issue, he is also a sock of Adhithya Kiran Chekavar, evidences can be seen at the SPI and the CU result is "likely". I got additional evidence on my own investigation, see this edit, if you open that reference it's a self-published manual written by "Adhithya Kiran", who is User:Adhithya Kiran Chekavar. At commons, both have uploaded image and title with same content Othayoth, Kalangot.

Additionally, Vvian980 is also the same user. Both Vvian980 and Othayoth uploaded the same [3],[4] on the same date (6 October 2020) and both uploaded the same $65,000 priced painting of Unniyarcha with the same deceptive rationale - [5], [6] (there was also a sock named Unniyarcha in English Wikipedia). 2409:4073:4E9B:9335:FD54:F3E4:C913:12CB 12:00, 28 December 2020 (UTC)
