It's not orphaned. Some vandal removed it and then whoever reverted the vandalism to LSHS did not put the image back. –Victor (talk)  (works) 04:48, 26 June 2008 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (Image:SunTec-Logo.png)
The image that you are talking about is not used for the article that it was intended for. It is not removed from any article, by any other person, citing any reasons. I wanted a "JPG" format image to be used as the logo for the company mentioned in the article SunTec. This was in the "PNG" format. When I got a "JPG" image, I uploaded that image instead. You may please delete the image from wiki (Image:SunTec-Logo.png). Sorry for the inconvenience caused. -- Sreejith Kumar (talk) 08:40, 8 July 2008 (UTC)

I think that the system is going crazy. I don't know what I can do, if I cannot upload a file to discuss the design of a logo in the Graphics lab page Graphic Lab/Image workshop.

Puget Systems Logo and Puget Systems Submerged
These images are being used in a draft article in my user space, which will hopefully be moved to article space soon. Is there a way to prevent them from being deleted until then? Or should I just let them go and re-upload them once the article hits main space? Fire67 (talk) 16:38, 15 July 2008 (UTC)
 * If they get deleted before you move the article space leave me a note once you do the move and I'll undelete them. BJ Talk 20:06, 18 July 2008 (UTC)

Image:Gameboy_advance_logo.svg and Image:Gameboy_micro_logo.svg
Your bot placed the di-orphaned fair use template in both these images, claiming that the images aren't used in any article. They ARE used in the articles Game Boy Advance and Game Boy Micro, respectively, so I suppose the template was placed in error. - Nmnogueira (talk) 07:46, 22 July 2008 (UTC)

Image:Time Warner Cable.gif
Hi. Your bot left me a message on my talk page about this fair use image being orphaned. While I applaud you for your efforts to keep Wikipedia out of legal trouble, this image is not orphaned, it is still present in it's namesake entry. Pacific Coast Highway {talk • contribs} 05:21, 19 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Seems to be a bug; Image:Time_Warner_Cable.gif shows nothing but the image on Time Warner Cable is that one. —Giggy 05:29, 19 July 2008 (UTC)
 * The same problem can been seen on a bunch of images at Cleveland Browns. They're obviously in use, but the backlinks don't appear on the image pages. Has anybody identified a pattern to the bug? GIFs, JPGs, PNGs, and SVGs all appear to be affected. Should we temporarily shut off the bot? - Eureka Lott 05:51, 20 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Just a wild guess, but could it be the infobox code not making it appear in use? Pacific Coast Highway {talk • contribs} 06:20, 20 July 2008 (UTC)
 * It's the job queue, nothing can be done without a large change to Mediawiki. BJ Talk 08:24, 20 July 2008 (UTC)
 * I didn't mean to imply that your bot was at fault. It's obviously a MediaWiki bug. Has it been noted anywhere? It's just that the bot will continue to incorrectly tag images as long as the bug persists. By the way, editing the article appeared to clear up the above problem for now, but I expect that it exists elsewhere. - Eureka Lott 18:41, 20 July 2008 (UTC)
 * It isn't a simple bug that can be fixed from what I understand. The job queue needs a major rewrite and I don't for see that happening for a while. In the mean time the bot checks for mistagged images daily and untags them, so there is no chance of a properly used image being deleted. BJ Talk 04:47, 21 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Stupid question: how can the bot tell that it has incorrectly tagged images as orphaned fair use images when the backlinks fail to appear on the image pages? - Eureka Lott 14:19, 22 July 2008 (UTC)

Userspace and sandboxes
I created 3 pages in my sandbox for testing and demonstration purposes and added an image in each of them, taken from WP articles. The only change I made to them was resizing, so that they could fit into an infobox. One of these images was detected by this bot (but not the other two) and received the checked flag warning, about one day later (but noticed it only today). I cannot understand why, my understanding having been: Thank you for helping. Clpda (talk) 22:11, 22 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Since the images are in published articles where they do not carry the same warning, I assumed their status was clear.
 * Since I copied them into my sandbox, which is not intended for publication outside a few interested editors, I'd consider that this is fair use and should not be seen as copyright infringement. I think this bot should actually be rather lenient about sandboxes and if there is a reason why non-free images should be banned from testing beds, it should at least allow more time for testing, e.g. 2-4 weeks - what is deemed a reasonable time to gain consensus!
 * I could not figure out why one of these images was flagged and the other two were not.
 * The bot only removes non-free images, the other two images that were not removed are free and can be used in any fashion. You can read more about the non-free image policy at WP:NFCC. BJ Talk 22:34, 22 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Thank you for your prompt reply - although you did not address the testing/sandbox issue. I've replaced the flag with an explanatory comment. Clpda (talk) 23:18, 22 July 2008 (UTC)


 * I think I ran into the same or a similar problem... I'm putting together a page (for Desert Research Institute), but since it's still being built (and I'm a n00b) I'm building it in a sandbox. I uploaded a logo for the place and put that on the sandbox page, but it got nailed by this bot. (Sandbox page here)  Can you put in an exception for Sandboxes? --Knockwood (talk) 08:48, 23 July 2008 (UTC)

Image:U2 Sunday Bloody Sunday Red Rocks.jpg
Hi, I was hoping you could clear something up. This image shows up in Sunday_Bloody_Sunday_(song), yet it was tagged twice by your bot as being an orphan. I assume that your bot tagged it because its usage doesn't show up under the "File links" heading. Is this some sort of MediaWiki bug or something you've run across before? Thanks in advance, ˉˉanetode╦╩ 22:42, 24 July 2008 (UTC)

Templating the regulars. ..

Images for deletion
Hi,

(I am reproducing this message from User talk:Bjweeks because I have not yet received a response there or at my talk page.)

Your bot recently tagged several images I uploaded for deletion (see my talk page for a full list). Several of these images were recently used in the Gunnerkrigg Court article but have been commented out for now (they are images of characters in the comic, and for the moment I have commented those characters out of the article because I decided they were not "major" enough for inclusion); I was planning on keeping the images there for future use, as the article is undergoing frequent updates and the plot of the comic (as well as different interpretations from different Wikipedia editors) may cause some of the images to be used again at short notice. Would this be reason to keep the images on Wikipedia? (I'm not challenging your judgment, I'm just asking, because I am relatively unfamiliar still with Wikipedia image and fair use guidelines.) Thanks, Politizer (talk) 05:54, 12 September 2008 (UTC)

BJBot = vandal
This bot has been vandalizing my user page, by repeatedly deleting an image that belongs to me (and for which I explicitly granted unlimited usage).

The very same image appears in another Wikipedia page (as my contribution -- which is still there!), but when I also place it on my user page, this "bot" deletes it. I restored my image, but the 'bot again deleted it (altho the published image in Wikipedia was NOT deleted).

This 'bot is defective, and should be disabled until fixed (or retired).

I have decide to restore the image (and to add a dozen more copies of it) to my "user" page. If these are again deleted, I shall endeavor to create a bot to restores anything on Wikipedia that is erroneously deletd by this 'bot. Let the 'bot wars begin!

(Or maybe I'll stop bothering to contribute, since I have better things to do with my time than fight erroneous deletions by vandalbots like this one!)

Regarding Graphic Lab/Image workshop
Hi there, when a requester posts a non-free image for cleanup, vectorization, ect. they don't always read the How-to and end up posting the direct image onto the page. ie instead of Image:Copyrighted.jpg  BJBot replaces  with the copyright notice image. This is very unhelpful as it sometimes makes it impossible for a graphist to know what image was posted without going back (sometimes through 100s of edits) into the history to find the image. It would be of much greater help if BJBot could replace with Image:Copyrighted.jpg so graphists still know which image is in need of repair. I know it's possible, just wondering if you'd be so kind to implement it? §hep  •   ¡Talk to me!  02:08, 25 September 2008 (UTC)

This bot is currently malfunctioning: it states that the images Image:LTSPlogo.gif, Image:LTSSlogo.gif, Image:LutherSeminarylogo.GIF, and Image:LSTClogo.gif are orphaned images. However, all currently are being used in articles. Please correct the bot to ensure it does not tag images which are used by an article as orphaned. -- jackturner3 (talk) 17:36, 3 October 2008 (UTC)
 * All those images are in fact orphans. BJ Talk 17:49, 3 October 2008 (UTC)

2007 FIS Nordic WSC.gif image
Since the .gif image used for the FIS Nordic World Ski Championships 2007 has been replaced by a .png, I don't have a problem with it though I think it would have gone better if it were speedy. Chris (talk) 21:10, 3 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Another bot is doing GIF -> PNG conversions. BJ Talk 01:19, 4 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Put speedy delete user on it and .gif was deleted. Chris (talk) 02:44, 4 October 2008 (UTC)

Talkpage spam
Thank you for the 122 messages you left on my talkpage this morning. Is this not a bit excessive just to tell me that all of the football logos I uploaded in 2006 & 2007 have now been changed to PNG files? E P  16:27, 3 October 2008 (UTC)
 * , it should no longer notify the uploader when a PNG version available template is on the image. BJ Talk 17:45, 3 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Thank you for your polite reply, It makes a pleasant change from the dismissive rudeness of another bot operator I crossed paths with a while back, regards E  P  18:12, 3 October 2008 (UTC)

Trademarked images
Regarding this edit, are non-copyrighted, trademarked images considered non-free? From what I read at WP:Logos and WP:Trademarks, they are not and the only restriction is that they cannot be used commerically. If I am incorrect, please point me to the Wikipedia policy stating that non-copyrighted, trademarked images are considered non-free (i.e., cannot be used in userspace and require FURs). Otherwise, please modify the bot to prevent it from removing such images. Thanks! →Wordbuilder (talk) 14:04, 7 October 2008 (UTC)
 * The bot follows the non-free categories, this discussion would be better suited for the village pump. BJ Talk 17:07, 7 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Thanks. →Wordbuilder (talk) 19:00, 7 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Actually, just remove the NFCC FUR template. BJ Talk 21:40, 7 October 2008 (UTC)

Noting replacement image
Regarding GIF images superseded by PNGs, the bot wasn't providing a replacement parameter when tagging superseded images. Could something be done to address this?--Paul_012 (talk) 13:56, 4 October 2008 (UTC)
 * My bot isn't the one doing the replacements. I figure I could have it copy the replacement name from the PNG replaced template but I don't see any real purpose to that. BJ Talk 17:28, 7 October 2008 (UTC)
 * There's the small navigational benefit when someone might wonder why an image became orphaned, since the PNG available message may be buried down the page, but you're probably right; doesn't seem worth the effort. Thanks anyway. --Paul_012 (talk) 18:19, 7 October 2008 (UTC)

Delayed orphan image suggestion
Why doesn't the bot wait a couple minutes (so the user can add it back up as a former logo) so I don't get spam from BJBot? Ellomate (talk) 19:43, 9 October 2008 (UTC)
 * The bot only runs once a day. BJ Talk 19:52, 9 October 2008 (UTC)

GBC Logo
The orphaned .gif can be deleted. The logo is a television station logo so is not public domain, however its use on wikipedia is authorised by the webmaster of gbc.gi. If there are any additions that need to be made to clarify that, let me know as its me. --Gibnews (talk) 08:27, 10 October 2008 (UTC)

RE:Orphaned non-free media (Image:Thevar Magan screenshot.jpg)
Thanks for your communication. Image is no longer an orphan. Bharathprime (talk) 10:00, 10 October 2008 (UTC)

Ashura Blaster
Thanks for informing me about my orphaned image for Ashura Blaster. The page was vandalised which explains the image becoming orphaned so I undid the edit and now it's back to normal. Raphie (talk) 10:44, 10 October 2008 (UTC)

User:GreyMatterEchoUKfan
Please do not edit my page. It is considered as vandalism. Thanks: GreyMatterEchoUKfan (talk) 12:21, 10 October 2008 (UTC)
 * No, no it isn't. BJ Talk 16:21, 10 October 2008 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Ghafurov 50somoni.jpg)
Thank you very much for bringing this to my attention. Image:Ghafurov 50somoni.jpg was originally intended for the article Bobojon Ghafurov. However, it has since been replaced with a better copy Image:Ghafurov 50somoni cropped.jpg and the original orphaned Image:Ghafurov 50somoni.jpg can be safely deleted now. Unfortunately, I do not know how to delete images. Could you do it, please? Thanks again. --Zlerman (talk) 06:54, 12 October 2008 (UTC)

Removal of Images
Hi, your bot removed all the images from a gallery on my page. I had intended it to be a spot to display all of the images I had uploaded, but as I have come to understand, that does not follow Wikipedia non-free image protocol. Is there any way to still display these images (as it is only on my userpage)? Thanks! D ARTH P ANDA talk 03:37, 13 October 2008 (UTC)
 * You can link to the images but no, you can't display them. BJ Talk 03:42, 13 October 2008 (UTC)
 * So in essence, I cannot display a gallery, but I can display links. D ARTH P ANDA talk 18:11, 13 October 2008 (UTC)

Image:History of Bonzos low res.jpg
You were remarkably quick in finding this was orphaned! The article The History of the Bonzos was vandalised on October 13, removing the infobox with the image and adding some nonsense, and you listed the image for speedy deletion on 14th! It is just as well I am not on holiday, or I would have had to upload it all again. Anyway, the image and infobox are now restored, and I hope you will take no further action. Patche99z (talk) 20:57, 14 October 2008 (UTC)

removed images
The bot removed two images from User:Bubba73/Sandbox/Rules of chess. This is a sandbox version of Rules of chess that we are working on that is currently under GA review. I would appreciate it if you would not tamper with a file like this. Bubba73 (talk), 03:27, 15 October 2008 (UTC)

Ummmm.....I didn't upload it. I just reverted it. SAVIOR _  SELF  .  777  02:17, 16 October 2008 (UTC)

McBurney School Logo
It's been replaced with a .png image, so it can be deleted.

Please explain
Could you please explain the "Read this first" notice in plain English? What does "revert the edit" mean? Do you mean to press the undo key in the history? And what if the bot made no edit to the image page? As far as I can remember, all I saw for the impending removal of my image for an article regarding a music album was the impending removal notice in my talk page. Since the article the image was used in had been vandalised, there was no direct link from the image to that article anyway. Patche99z (talk) 14:33, 21 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Yes, undo is a form of reverting. If the bot hasn't made an edit it didn't tag the image. In this case a bot already removed the the tag. BJ Talk 17:03, 21 October 2008 (UTC)
