File:Boston Bruins.svg
Hello, you deleted this file per F8, however I think it wasn't exactly the same. I don't think this version had the registred trademark symbol. Jonteemil (talk) 10:51, 4 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Hi, the file was exported directly from here, so the file history was the exact same locally and on Commons. deleted the Commons file upon your history split request, but there was no followup.  ✗  plicit  10:57, 4 July 2024 (UTC)
 * I could not complete the file split due to a software bug. I have filed it here: . Lets wait for a resolution. --Sreejith K (talk) 14:37, 4 July 2024 (UTC)
 * I tried again today and it worked this time. I have moved the overwritten file to File:Boston Bruins (2).svg --Sreejith K (talk) 13:37, 8 July 2024 (UTC)

Template:SC Toronto coaches
Hi. If possible, could you please provide me a link to the revision of Template:SC Toronto coaches prior to deletion. My fault I didn't follow up at all with my merge request. The result of the discussion was to simply delete, but I was thinking merge for some reason. I have just now added a category to the managers navbox, but I was wondering if there was something else in the coaches template that could've been merged. Thanks. -- DB 1729 talk 11:24, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Hi, I just compared the two templates and found only the following differences between the deleted template and the surviving template.

NFCC issues
@Explicit, what here is even copyrightable? Shouldn't it just be relicensed as PD-simple and then we don't have to think about any NFC-related issues? Jonteemil (talk) 21:13, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Please see the section about paintings regarding the threshold of originality in the United States: Even seemingly simple paintings consisting of geometric shapes are often copyrighted due to details that may not be immediately obvious to the viewer. It is likely that the brushstroke detail of File:Wojciech Fangor Black 4 1959.jpg is original enough to be protected by copyright. ✗  plicit  23:39, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Fair enough. Seems quite strange but if that is the law then we must follow it. Jonteemil (talk) 00:03, 9 July 2024 (UTC)

File:An edited photo of Dr. Epitacio Ramos Tongohan, as provided by the poet himself.jpg
Hi Explicit. I believe you deleted File:An edited photo of Dr. Epitacio Ramos Tongohan, as provided by the poet himself.jpg as replaceable non-free use per WP:F7, but the uploader looks to have recreated the file's page by posting di-replaceable non-free use disputed on it. Techinically, page is now eligible for speedy deletion per WP:F2, but I figured I let you know about it before tagging it just in case you want to restore the file and let it be discussed at FFD instead. For reference, there is also another version of the same file uploaded as File:Photo of Dr. Epitacio Ramos Tongohan aka Doc PenPen Bugtong Takipsilim.jpg, and I don't think two versions of what's essentially the same non-free file are not needed regardless of whether you decide to restore this one. -- Marchjuly (talk) 02:49, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Hi, I don't see much need for any action outside of the F2 deletion that I have already carried out. This non-free file is a textbook violation of WP:NFCC. ✗  plicit  23:39, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Thank you for taking a look. -- Marchjuly (talk) 00:23, 9 July 2024 (UTC)

John Derian
Hello, can you put the contents of the article that was deleted here: Articles for deletion/John Derian to Draft:John Derian? I want to take a look at what existed there and possibly use some of the material for John Derian, but I would prefer not to tie the two article histories together. Thank you, Thriley (talk) 18:17, 3 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Hi, just to make sure, are you more or less asking for the deleted history of John Derian to be restored to the history of Draft:John Derian? The page looked like this right before deletion, if that helps. ✗  plicit  00:29, 4 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Yes. Looks like there’s not much in the old version to use. Thank you for your help. Thriley (talk) 14:29, 9 July 2024 (UTC)

Flag of Tallahassee, Florida
Could you undelete Flag of Tallahassee, Florida for attribution reasons, as content from the page was merged into Tallahassee, Florida with Special:Diff/357102867? The article was originally deleted as a redirect to a now-deleted article, so I guess I'll re-redirect it to Tallahasse, Florida and add a note on the talk page. Thanks! GreenLipstickLesbian (talk) 23:24, 9 July 2024 (UTC)
 * ✅, page restored and redirect adjusted. ✗  plicit  00:32, 10 July 2024 (UTC)

File:Anto Lecky in 2021.jpeg
Hi Explicit. Since you're also a Commons administrator, I thought I'd ask you about File:Anto Lecky in 2021.jpeg. First of all, the source information and license don't seem correct given that the file appears to be a duplicate of File:Anto Lecky at the movie premiere of 'Dear Affy' in 2020.jpg that was being used in ig:Anto Lecky. Secondly, I tagged the Commons for with "npd" because it seems really unlikely that the uploader is also the copyright holder; I did this not just because of the similarity of the uploader's name and the photo subject's name but also because of this. Anyway, I'm wondering whether the local file should be tagged for speedy deletion too or simply left as is until the Commons file is sorted out. -- Marchjuly (talk) 02:15, 11 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Hi, you can go head and tag the local file as lacking permission as well. When the subject of a picture uploads their own portrait, they're usually under the assumption that they own the copyright of the photo because they're in it. ✗  plicit  03:37, 11 July 2024 (UTC)
 * THanks for taking a look at this. I've tagged the local with "npd". -- Marchjuly (talk) 04:10, 11 July 2024 (UTC)

thanks for deleting my draft Torcuil Crichton article
I couldn't work out how to do it (after another version was published before mine), or to flag it so that someone else would do it, so I'm glad you saw it and were able to do it. Thanks. Iaineditor (talk) 21:19, 10 July 2024 (UTC)
 * No worries. You can tag pages with db-g7 to request deletion of pages you created. ✗  plicit  03:37, 11 July 2024 (UTC)

Deletion of the Prem Poddar page
Hello,

I understand you deleted the Prem Poddar page to which I had contributed. New to Wikipedia: any chance you could explain why the whole thing had to go? Thanks. Aliceinlondon (talk) 08:22, 11 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Hi, another contributor proposed the Prem Poddar article for deletion as they believed that the subject "does not meet criteria for notability". This generally refers to the general notability guideline. You can read that page to better understand that user's actions. If you contested the page's deletion, you can request undeletion at WP:REFUND. ✗  plicit  23:54, 11 July 2024 (UTC)

Request for restoration
Hello, you deleted Draft:Sammy Virji as an abandoned draft. He just entered the UK singles chart at #94, thereby satisfying WP:MUSICBIO, and I'd like to see if there's anything pillagable before I start writing. Please also restore Zheani to User:Launchballer/Zheani, as I asked Bbb23 some time back but did not get a response.-- Laun chba ller 17:06, 12 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Hi, I have userfied Zheani as requested. The draft was restored by someone else. ✗  plicit  01:09, 14 July 2024 (UTC)

File:Dr. Epitacio Tongohan with Indian Prime Minister Narendra D. Modi.jpg
Hi Explicit. Can you check whether File:An edited photo of Dr. Epitacio Ramos Tongohan, as provided by the poet himself.jpg is the same as File:Dr. Epitacio Tongohan with Indian Prime Minister Narendra D. Modi.jpg? I don't remember what the deleted file was and think it might be different but jsut want to double check. If there not the same, I'm pretty sure the latest non-free one also fails WP:FREER given that (1) the subject is still alive and (2) File:Dr. Epitacio R. Tongohan and the government officials of Tanay LGU.jpg exist. The non-free one also fails WP:NFC#CS as well in my opinion, but I'm sure whether that needs to be discussed at FFD. -- Marchjuly (talk) 12:50, 13 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Hi, the deleted image is not the same as the new non-free image. It's another textbook violation of WP:NFCC. ✗  plicit  01:09, 14 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Thanks for taking a look at this. I tagged the file for speedy deletion per F7. -- Marchjuly (talk) 12:22, 14 July 2024 (UTC)

File:Hcalvinasgarcia.jpg
Hi Explicit. Would you mind taking a look at File:Hcalvinasgarcia.jpg and Henry Calvin. You removed the file in question from the article with this edit in January 2023, but it was re-added about a year later here. The person who re-added the file didn't provide a corresponding nfur for the use on the file's page; so, the file has been in violation of NFCC#10c since it was re-added but has. for some reason, not been noticed by one of the bots looking for such files. Anyway, I could just remove the file per WP:NFCCE but that might just encourage someone to re-add it after adding a rationale. Does this now need to go to FFD for discussion since only one use of the file is being disputed and the file was previously removed per ? Is that type of removal considered equivalent to a "soft deletion"? -- Marchjuly (talk) 23:51, 13 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Hi, I would suggest nominating it for discussion at FFD. I'm not convinced the file is justified in Zorro (1957 TV series) either, as it is not subject to sourced critical commentary and should probably be deleted altogether. ✗  plicit  01:09, 14 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Thanks for taking a look at this. I've started a discussion about the file's uses at FFD. -- Marchjuly (talk) 12:24, 14 July 2024 (UTC)

Requesting access to Beyond All Reason draft article that was deleted.
