Boston Categories[edit]
Hi. Since Category:Boston is already in Category:Cities in Massachusetts, adding Category:Massachusetts is redundant. Thanks for your attention. Cheers, -- Infrogmation (talk) 02:32, 26 August 2013 (UTC)
- Didn't I remove the Massachusetts category? That categorization was slightly puzzling. Also, next time you want to start a new section on my talk page, could you use the "Add topic" tab at the top of this page or use the red box near the top of my talk page? It just makes it easier for everyone. Thank you so much and my apologies for the redundant categorization. --WorldTraveller101 T C G E 02:57, 26 August 2013 (UTC)
- Same comment applies for aircraft. You added Category:Boeing 777-200ER (British Airways) to File:British Airways Boeing 777-200ER G-YMML SIN 2011-8-21.png, but the added category was already included in Category:G-YMML (aircraft), thus making your addition redundant. I've reverted your edit. Thanks.--Jetstreamer (talk) 16:06, 31 August 2013 (UTC)
Licenses[edit]
Hello. I think this politics of licensings are a little bit hard to follow. I uploaded a picture, from an open Web Page (Adelina Dalesio de Viola, Argentine politic). A picture of a person. It would be easier to me, to lie and say that picture had been token directly by me. But not, I said the truth and now the picture is about to be deleted due to "copyright stuff". When phothographs are exposed in public web-pages, and expose a person face, I think the "extremely rudeness" of "copyright" means a non-sense. A possible solution would be to send a message to the source web page (or e-mail the owner) and confirm the operations that way. Big structures of "copyright" for questions as simples as a human face, in my opinion, touches the mental illness. Please I invite you to reconsider this position with people-faces expose in opened public access web pages. Thank you for your consideration. Sincerely, from Argentina,
Victor.
- Hi Victor. Please see my reply on the deletion discussion. Thank you. --WorldTraveller101 T C G E 21:53, 1 September 2013 (UTC)

Your edit on renaming category[edit]
Even if there is less than 14 queues on category,it is still needed for when they have +14 queues. It does not automatically created. Please leave the backlog template as is. Thanks. (FYI,I did not reverted.) 레비Revi✉SUL Info 15:42, 6 October 2013 (UTC)
- OK, I'll self-revert, albeit I wonder why it didn't automatically hide when it was reduced to less than 14 items....hmmm. WorldTraveller101 (✉ • ✐) 15:47, 6 October 2013 (UTC)
- I guess that include categories, so it need 11 items to hidden from backlog template. 레비Revi✉SUL Info 03:11, 7 October 2013 (UTC)
