Warning[edit]

Hi, Stop reverting this. This is edit warring, and is prohibited. Regards, Yann (talk) 18:56, 9 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Well, if you think you can edit warring because of your edit count, see Commons:Administrators' noticeboard/User problems#Lecen. Regards, Yann (talk) 19:09, 9 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Also, you don't need to spread your (wrong) arguments everywhere. Most admins watch the undeletion page, they will see it. Regards, Yann (talk) 10:18, 11 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Please mellow down :). Nothing is deleted forever and you reach for more with the mellow approach. If you ask several people at the same time and you use strong language that won't work. Admins are aware of the undeletion and someone will make a decision based upon Commons Policy soon. However, if you make a fuss about this it will only take longer before an admin will decide since discussion that are more about the tone than about the actual arguments are not very popular to close. You made a good demonstration why. You treat Commons as a battleground and that is not okay. I am kindly asking you to mellow down and let this one slide until emotions are less in play.

Hi, it looks like you're a little upset about a painting - please, calm down. It's only a painting after all and as Natuur12 says, it's never deleted forever. It's considered bad form to visit the talk pages and leave messages for the people who vote a particular way in a deletion discussion, especially one where you're involved in uploading the original image. Please, make your arguments at the undeletion request and allow the community to come to a decision as normally happens. Thanks. Nick (talk) 11:30, 11 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
"Calm down"? An editor calls me a racist and only because I asked someone to take a look at a file I'm the one to be told to "calm down"? Did any of you see what Adam Cuerden did at English Wikipedia? 1) He got into an edit war if other editors trying to impose his version as the right one in the article. 2) He tried to upload his version over the old file. 3) He opened a Featured Article Review asking for the article to lose it's status simply because he didn't like the painting. 4) He asked the painting to be erased from Commons. 5) He called me and the other editors who disagreed with his file "racists". I come here, I ask people to take a look at the file as it actually looks when hanging on a wall and you believe that I'm the one being confrontational? --Lecen (talk) 11:36, 11 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Nobody claims that you are the only one to blame in this conflict, however, en-wiki is en-wiki and not Commons. All I ask is for de-escaltion instead of even more escalation. I don't blame you or anyone else. But you simply can't have a good discussion with all those emotions in play.Natuur12 (talk) 11:48, 11 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
If he's not the only one to blame, you should be posting warnings at the other editor's talk page as well as here. On wikipedia, it is considered bad form for an administrator to use an administrative tool to force his way in a dispute, but it seems to be acceptable here. DrKiernan (talk) 11:58, 11 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
My message is just a request. Beside the unmellow approach, the things there are to blame happened at en-wiki and they should be dealt with there. Everyone loses his patience every now and than and that's not a problem since we are all human and I have no intention to solve this conflict using tools. Plus, doing something wrong is not the same as doing something blockable. Natuur12 (talk) 13:03, 11 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Sourcing[edit]

By all means, change the exact text on File:Anônimo - D. Pedro, Duque de Bragança.JPG, but you can't claim a source that it isn't actually from - It is not from Eravirtual.org, it's a modified version of a scaled-down Google Art Project scan - and you must explicitly note that changes have been done.

Photo of Pedro II of Brazil (1887)[edit]

Hello there, Lecen. If you still come on Wikipedia I wanted to ask about the authorship of the photo. On WikiCommons it states that "Lucien Walery" was the author (pseudonym of Stanislaw Julian Ignacy Ostrorog (1863-1929)). This is very unlikely, or the date is wrong. The reasons are these: if the date is correct, it would have been his father, Count Stanislaw Julian Ostrorog (1830-1890) working as "Walery" who took the picture. Ostrorog, son did not take over the photography business till 1890 when his father died. However, if your documents are correct, then we have an incomplete history of father and son. What do you think? Best wishes, --Po Mieczu (talk) 13:06, 7 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Publication permit: Portrait of King Sebastian; Cristóvão de Morais, 1565.[edit]

Good morning,

I would like to use you photo Portrait of King Sebastian; Cristóvão de Morais, 1565 in a publication. Could you send me a signed publication permit stating that I am allowed to use this image? Despite appearing as Public Domain, I would prefer to be covered against any possible copyright issues. Thanks in advance and let me know if you could do it so I can give you my email

I’m sorry, I cannot do that, since I have no right over the painting. You should ask permission with the museum in which is presently housed. --Lecen (talk) 09:28, 11 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
