Hello, I think you were dishonest when you add a bunch of useless structured data on this image. https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=File:Women_washing_clothes_4.jpg&action=history Let this be a note for further ISA Campaigner. Bennylin (yes?) 13:03, 12 April 2023 (UTC)

Hello @Bennylin,

the numbers 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,111-136 Bennylin (yes?) 13:11, 12 April 2023 (UTC)

I never added the numbers there must be some confusion somewhere. Kindly look into it deeply! Magotech (talk) 13:16, 12 April 2023 (UTC)

Hi, I have provided the history of the file. It says that in March 11, 2021, you added those structured data via a competition in https://isa.toolforge.org/campaigns/94. Did you remember participating in that competition/challenge? Bennylin (yes?) 14:56, 12 April 2023 (UTC)

Yes I do remember participating but never have I ever added something like that. Anyway, afterall you raised it as a reminder. Thank you and hopefully other editors don’t do this. Magotech (talk) 15:38, 12 April 2023 (UTC)

🙏👍 I trust you, sorry for accusing you too fast. Thank you for the explanation. I happened to see that by accident. Have a good day to you. Bennylin (yes?) 15:49, 12 April 2023 (UTC)

Sure no problem @Bennylin, it is good address these kinda issues so that the other communities know about them and to abstein whenever possible.

we are all working to bring a better and quality resource to the community and if we provide meaningless resource it will be a bad move from us. Thank you again for this. Happy editing!

cheers.
