Regarding copyrights of files
Hello, Can you please check the copyrights of this ? Does it comply with the policy? --Ganeshprasadkp (talk) 04:49, 7 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Looks generally OK to me; thanks. The Big Bad Wolfowitz (aka Hullaballoo). Treated like dirt by many administrators since 2006.   (talk) 15:29, 7 May 2018 (UTC)
 * , Thank a ton for your valuable reply. One last thing: Can I re-upload the deleted images with the same copyright tag as of this image, which I mentioned above? --Ganeshprasadkp (talk) 16:09, 7 May 2018 (UTC)
 * In general, no. Copyrighted book cover images are allowed only in articles regarding the books themselves, not in the author's biography. I believe the deleted images were used only on biography pages. There was one case where I substituted a properly licensed image from an Amazon page, and if you feel strongly that the cover you photographed was a better choice, you may replace that one, which is used only in the article about the book itself. The Big Bad Wolfowitz (aka Hullaballoo). Treated like dirt by many administrators since 2006.   (talk) 16:32, 7 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Thank you very much, for your reply of concern. So I decide to re-upload all deleted images (now with copyrights as same as of image) but will not use it in author-biography articles. Do you agree? --Ganeshprasadkp (talk) 16:51, 7 May 2018 (UTC)
 * It would be better to create the article (at least the basic text) about each book before you upload its cover. WP:NFCC#7 requires that nonfree images be used in at least one article, and there's an automatic process that quickly tags and removes unused nonfree images. Most (maybe all) of the upload wizards won't let you upload a nonfree image until you identify an article it's going to be used in. The Big Bad Wolfowitz (aka Hullaballoo). Treated like dirt by many administrators since 2006.   (talk) 20:49, 7 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Yes check.svg Got it. Thank you, for the guidance. | --Ganeshprasadkp (talk) 04:49, 8 May 2018 (UTC)

Hi there. Apologies for not messaging you before. I didn't understand why a CD cover image was being removed when I get putting it back.

Daniel Puder image
Hello, I'm the original poster for this image File:2004-11-04-WWE-SmackDown-Tough-Enough-Daniel-Puder-Kimura-Locks-Kurt-Angle.jpg and I would like to know how to resolve this issue.

You stated that this image is a replaceable nonfree image, but this is the only known image of the event stated in the Daniel Puder article and so it is not replaceable, and I state that this image falls under fair use as for the reasons I state below:

The requirements of "don't use larger excerpts of a single work than necessary" and "don't use images of higher resolution than necessary" has been addressed, as the image is only a crop of a screenshot from a Youtube video and not the whole screenshot, the resolution of the Youtube video is low resolution and the image has been resized by a Wikipedia bot. Greg The Webmaster (talk) 05:31, 14 May 2018 (UTC)


 * After reading your user talk page, I've decided not to pursue this issue any longer and allow the non-free fair-use image to be deleted as per the rules of Wikipedia, the reason I've elected to not pursue this issue any longer is to avoid being called a blithering idiot by you as you had done to another user, I'm a very sensitive person and your attitude towards others in your user talk makes me nervous.


 * Please do not take this personally, I'm just a very sensitive person. Greg The Webmaster (talk) 06:02, 14 May 2018 (UTC)

File:VITA mission logo.jpg
Hi, I see you removed this file from the article Paolo Nespoli. If I can't put it in a larger format, Is it fair use to put it as a mission logo patch in the astronaut infobox, like all other mission patches? Note that ESA allows Free usage for educational purposes, just not a total free license and that's why it cant be in commons. Thanks Golan&#39;s mom (talk) 08:27, 17 May 2018 (UTC)
 * No. Per the WMF, noncommercial/educational-only permission is insufficient to permit use of an otherwise nonfree image. Because the subject's participation on the mission can be fullu conveyed by text alone, WP:NFCC#8 bars use of the nonfree image. The same principle has been uniformly applied to military insignia, without significant disagreement. The Big Bad Wolfowitz (aka Hullaballoo). Treated like dirt by many administrators since 2006.   (talk) 13:00, 17 May 2018 (UTC)

Regarding Image copyrights
Hello, Greetings! Would you please recommend a copyright tag for a non-free image of a person (like without applying any OTRS license as done in ). You can check this for example. Will a Non-free use rationale, Non-free use rationale 2 or CopyrightedFreeUse is applicable? Thank you, --Ganeshprasadkp (talk) 13:26, 20 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Nonfree images of living persons generally can't be used to illustrate their biographies, absent certain unusual circumstances (eg, prisoners serving life sentences, long-term fugitives. An active TV actor certainly doesn't fall into any of the exceptions. Wait for a free image to turn up. The Big Bad Wolfowitz (aka Hullaballoo). Treated like dirt by many administrators since 2006.

This is your only warning; if you make personal attacks on others again, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Comment on content, not on other contributors or people. Longhair\talk 00:41, 3 June 2018 (UTC)


 * Yet another example of an admin with misplaced priorities and double standards. So it's perfectly OK with you for an editor to repeatedly post harassing messages on my talk page, violate 3RR, commit and support BLP violations, and demonstrate a substantial and sustained lack of competence. But I used the term "twit" (a term I've seen admins direct at individuals without consequence or comment. After years of enduring far worse comments than "twit", which have generally been allowed to go by without sanction or censure by our collectively feckless corps of administrators, I am hardly surprised, but it certainly supports my opinion that you are one of too, too many admins who is a net negative to the Wikipedia project.

Guernica
Hello. I saw you've removed the image of Picasso's Guernica (File:PicassoGuernica.jpg) from the articles on the museum in which it is exhibited and from the Madrid page. These are surely fair uses of the image, as it defines the museum to a large extent and is one of, if not the, major tourist attractions of Madrid. I've never tried to format a fair use template, can you assist with these so the image and its caption can be returned to both pages? The painting was a "gift to the people of Spain" from Picasso, and thus should be an easy affirmative fair use question. Thanks. Randy Kryn (talk) 11:59, 3 June 2018 (UTC)


 * The nonfree image is not at all necessary to understand the fact ostensibly being illustrated. Therefore the uses fail NFCC#8. No valid use rationales can be constructed. The Big Bad Wolfowitz (aka Hullaballoo). Treated like dirt by many administrators since 2006.   (talk) 12:11, 3 June 2018 (UTC)
 * Would disagree on this point. As quoted on the NFCC page "its presence would significantly increase readers' understanding of the article topic". Many non-visual-art savvy readers who would not recognize the name of the painting would recognize the famous image, and would then realize that it is a key fixture of both the city and the museum. So, at least very arguably, valid use is clear. If you can't help with the formatting of a valid use templates, can a page lurker either assist with this or give me pointers on how to go forward? Thanks. Randy Kryn (talk) 12:19, 3 June 2018 (UTC)
 * That function is served by the link to the article on the painting itself. Your argument proves too much -- we generally can't use nonfree images of people mentioned in articles, even if their names aren't readily recognizable. Your point has been argued and rejected before. WP:FFD and WP:MCQ discussions may provide further guidance. The Big Bad Wolfowitz (aka Hullaballoo). Treated like dirt by many administrators since 2006.   (talk) 12:23, 3 June 2018 (UTC)
 * Has it been argued on such a major item? A museum would be defined by its collection, and in this case Guernica is not only the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía's major attraction but may be Spain's most recognizable national treasure (hence the Madrid page use, not to mention its potential use on the 'Spain' article itself). A link to the painting's page is fine, but does not have the impact of "Look what's in this museum!" to a visual-arts-uneducated reader browsing Madrid museum pages to see what to take in on their visit. Most importantly, perhaps, is the fact that Picasso gifted the painting to the people of Spain, so its fair use perimeters are arguably extended to these two pages (and even the 'Spain' page itself).

Request for comment on remaining non-free image use
Hello, I have been working to educate myself about WP:NFCC after I saw you removed an image use from The Phenomenauts. Would you have time to give your opinion on non-free image use for the remaining two non-free images in that article? It appears you have a lot of experience in this area :)

I posted a question on the WP:MCQ here. I'm wondering if my understanding is correct. It seems like there is a stronger argument for using the remaining two non-free images, since each appears in a section about the item itself, and the section specifically explains and deals with the non-free image being depicted. Is that accurate?

I have tried to improve my understanding of appropriate non-free image use. I have re-read through WP:NFC, WP:NFCC, Arguments to avoid, this Signpost entry on reviewing non-free images, a dozen pages from the Media_copyright_questions archive on "contextual significance", as well as your talk page here. I am working to gain a better understanding.

Please help regarding images
Hello  You recently removed two images I had uploaded on pages of 'Ashok Malhotra' and 'Anoop Malhotra" because it seems they did not comply with Wikipedia guidelines. I apologize for the error. I am new to Wikipedia while you are an experienced editor, please could you suggest what changes are required so as to make the images acceptable if you feel they will help to improve the articles? If not we can leave it as it is. There was an older image on the former page that I removed before adding the new one, or perhaps should I replace that? In the meantime reading your comment that - 'wikipedia only' is not acceptable, I have removed that condition from the image pages. It was something additional I padded by mistake not realizing its implication. The family had given the images for use in Wikipedia on my request for use in these articles or where ever else that article is used but it seems they could not be bothered to release it elsewhere in public domain first. I shall await your response before doing anything or jsut leave things as they stand. Thanks. appreciate the work you do at wikipedia as your medals suggest. it is a useful resource for the world.

Edit warring
Your recent editing history at Madrid and Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing&mdash;especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring&mdash;even if you don't violate the three-revert rule&mdash;should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

Disputed non-free use rationale for File:NWDMNSNS11971.jpg
Thank you for uploading File:NWDMNSNS11971.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the file description page and adding or clarifying the reason why the file qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your file is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for files used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.

If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator seven days after the file was tagged in accordance with section F7 of the criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.

ATTENTION : This is an automated, bot-generated message. This bot DID NOT nominate any file(s) for deletion; please refer to the page history of each individual file for details. Thanks, FastilyBot (talk) 01:02, 22 July 2018 (UTC)

regarding your fresh edits
Sorry to contact you here, I wasn't much interested to add that section at all which you deleted, But as the news on the internet clearly specifies that , I added it without any interest , If you think those controversies are useful to Wikipedia Universe anyway else or suitable for the artist who makes that article , then , you may revert the edit , I will add source in free time ! But wait for 24 hrs before deleting them again ! Crispgatoglitz (talk) 01:10, 27 July 2018 (UTC)
 * You were WP:BOLD when added that content to the article, but Wikipedia is not news and not everything about Fadnis needs to be added to Manjari Fadnis. Hullaballo Wolfwitz was correct in removing that unsourced content per WP:BLP and WP:BLPSOURCES; so, if you wish to further discuss this then you should do so at Talk:Manjari Fadnis. Just start a new section and explain why you feel this content should be included. Also, it's your WP:BURDEN to add supporting citations to content when you add the content the first time or it can be removed by any any editor; this is particulary true for content about living persons seen as contentous. So, don't tell other editors to wait 24 hours before removing content; instead, you wait until you have all of the sources ready to go before adding the content. -- Marchjuly (talk) 02:09, 27 July 2018 (UTC)

File:Lorrie Collins.jpg
Hi HW. You've got some pretty keen spidey-sense when it comes to non-free bio images, so I'm wondering if you'd assess this file. Lorrie Collins just died, and a non-free was added for identification purposes to the article. I believe that was done in good faith, but her career did span a number of years and I'm wondering whether there might be something of her flosting around on Ebay or somewhere which didn't have it's copyright removed or might otherwise be PD for some reason. Maybe even a Flick'r image somewhere released under a CC license Wikipedia can accept. I've started a discussion about this on the uploader's user talk at User talk:CAWylie, so perhaps you can provide some suggestions there. Thanks in advance. -- Marchjuly (talk) 01:14, 6 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Thanks for you input here. The file was reuploaded to Commons under a free license, so things appear resolved. Was wondering if you'd mind helping out with an image for Benny Hill.

A non-free was uploaded to replace the Comomns file, but was deleted per WP:G7 after I tagged the file for rfu.

Marilyn Michaels
Stop your edit warring on the Marilyn Michaels article. If it is not vandalism, it is indistinguishable from it. The article is sourced with reliable third-party sources, and contains plain facts with sources, and almost no adjectives. Whether some people were once sock puppets is irrelevant. What the article looked like years ago is irrelevant. I have explained my reasons on the talk page, specifically. You have not. You have only given vague generalities, and made NO attempt to correct whatever it is that bothers you, simply blanking a performer's entire career, which is a clear violation of editing protocol. I suspect it's personal, since your actions make no sense whatsoever. You blanking the career leaves an article where a reader would have no idea why the article even exists. You have never explained your reasoning, if there is any reasoning. Carlo (talk) 02:05, 8 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Stop being a dishonest jackass. The crapfest you have repeatedly reinstated was rejected by consensus, and you stand alone in proxying for the banned/blocked sockfarmer who wrote it.

Dana Plato image
Hi HW. Do you think a suitable free image of Dana Plato can be found to replace the non-free screenshot currently being used in main infobox? There is actually a free image of Plato already being used in the article, so I tagged the non-free with rfu; however, it was declined because free one's quality isn't very good. So, I've started looking around on eBay, etc. for another possible free equivalent and found some, but I'm not sure how to check their respective copyright statuses. There are a couple of images which look like they might have been taken prior to 1978, so maybe PD-US-no notice or some other type of PD is possible. -- Marchjuly (talk) 01:18, 31 August 2018 (UTC)
 * I've become convinced that, at least for US performers active enough before the visible-copyright-notice requirement was repealed, there are almost certainly free images out there; it's just a question of digging long enough. A cursory ebay search turns up truckloads of images without notices, but not demonstrating original publication. (And an unhealthy number of them are jailbait cheesecake) But this one looks plausibly free, but needs dewatermarking, and I suspect there are more. The Big Bad Wolfowitz (aka Hullaballoo). Treated like dirt by many administrators since 2006.   (talk) 01:37, 31 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Thanks for doing that bit of digging. "PD-US-no notice" seems to only be for content published prior to 1978, but the number of possibilities would greatly increase if PR shots/stills from the Diff'rent Strokes years might also be PD. As you stated, there are some "jailbait cheesecake images" out there that probably are not suitable; there might also be a mugshot photo of her from later in life which might be PD as well, but again there's WP:MUG which might deserve consideration even though she died in 1999. However, something from 1978 (when the show first aired) until 1985 when it was canceled, might be appropriate. Just curious about the one you found. Do you think the bar code at the top of back of the photo might be considered a copyright notice of some sort? -- Marchjuly (talk) 01:51, 31 August 2018 (UTC)

Please stop excising images with the edit summary "nonfree image in BLP infobox"
You have been using the edit summary "nonfree image in BLP infobox" to justify excising images for a long time. Yet, honestly is there anything in WP:NFCC, or any other policy, to justify an excision, on that justification?

Every question, every disagreement, is a teachable moment. I suggest that your general practice of simply excising images, rather than discussing what you see as questionable non-free rationales is not in the best interest of the project.

I strongly encourage you to engage with the uploader, unless they have a proven record of vandalism. We have no training manual. You risk chasing away good faith new contributors, or exhausting the patience of good faith experienced contributors, when you act precipitously. Geo Swan (talk) 23:05, 12 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Non-free images in biographies of living people are generally prohibited, excepting some extreme circumstances, and are subject to removal. If the image is Non-free, the subject is alive, then a free image can likely be sourced or created, so the Non-free image gets removed. If you don't like this, you need to take it up with the WMF or suggest a change to the relevant policies and guidelines at the village pump, and given where the bar is set, this is unlikely to change. For a non-free image of a living person to be used, there needs to be a VALID fair use rationale. And there are almost none for living people. And while a Non-free image is being used in an article without a valid reason, there are legal concerns. Which is why they are removed until one can be provided. Only in death does duty end (talk) 00:13, 13 September 2018 (UTC)
 * I don't have much to add to Only in death's cogent comments, except that since an infobox image is intended as a general illustration, rather than related to a specific point in the article. the possible arguments for using a nonfree image there are particularly weak. The Big Bad Wolfowitz (aka Hullaballoo). Treated like dirt by many administrators since 2006.   (talk) 01:53, 13 September 2018 (UTC)
 * If you think you have a valid, policy-based reason why a non-free image shouldn't be used, then using the edit summary "nonfree image in BLP infobox" instead of that reason is a very very bad idea. If you think you have a valid, policy-based reason, then use that as your edit summary.  Making it hard for a good faith uploader to understand why you think their upload was a mistake is a time-wasting act of incivility.  Please also bear in mind that, like the rest of us, you too are subject to normal human fallibility.  You could be the one whose judgement is off.  I think you were dead wrong to be so dogged in your attempts to remove the image of Florin Fodor.  And I think you were making a big mistake to justify your excision because the image was in an infobox.  Geo Swan (talk) 16:49, 14 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Repeatedly posting tendentious nonsense on my talk page is a very very very very bad idea. I have been using the same basic edit summary for years, hundreds upon hundreds of times (actually more than 1500 times). You appear to be the only editor who objects to it. You are very very likely to be the one whose judgement is off. I strongly suggest you heed your own warning about exhausting the patience of good faith experienced contributors.

Trying to work out an image for a lede
I took your : as hint and am trying to work out an image for a lede (I didn't even notice the : and assumed I had inserted it during one of my edits, just kept on going with the talk page discussion). We need that image on the talk page for the moment. It is context during the discussion, right now.

Can you please hold off on the big hammer until I can get consensus on another lede image. After the outcome you are free to work your will, but please.

Frank Donga
Hello The image on the article "Frank Donga" was uploaded on the claim of Fair Use, which is acceptable. You deleted it for the reason "nonfree image in BLP infobox" I would revert your change pending an explanation to this cause Thanks — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pst. Bukkie (talk • contribs) 16:17, 10 October 2018 (UTC)
 * See WP:NFC and point 1 of WP:NFCC - where the subject is still alive (with very very few exceptions) a non-free picture is not allowed on a biography of a living person, as a free picture can be sourced. Wikipedia applies a stricter standard than normal fair use allows. The key part of NFCC is "Non-free content is used only where no free equivalent is available, or could be created, that would serve the same encyclopedic purpose." - for living people, it has been determined that photos of subjects who are still alive and not under extreme conditions (long term incarceration, dictators of north korea etc) a free photo could be created. Only in death does duty end (talk) 17:27, 10 October 2018 (UTC)
 * Hi . A non-free image of Donga cannot be used per Wikipedia non-free content use criterion #1 for the reasons given above by ; so, I have tagged this file for deletion per WP:F7. Moreover, it appears that this is a reupload of a previously deleted file of the same name (see User talk:Pst. Bukkie) which was deleted for the same reason back in April by an administrator named .When you find out that a file you uploaded has been deleted it can be a bit of a shock, especially if you're not sure exactly why. If a file you've upload has been deleted, it's always best to assume there was a reason for it; so, click on the file's link (it will be a red link) and try and see why. If you still are n't sure, then the file's page will show the name of the administrator who deleted it and it's perfectly OK to ask that person or someone else (perhaps at the Wikipedia:Teahouse or Wikipedia:Media copyright questions) to explain why. Pretty much worst thing you can do, however, is simply reupload the same file (or a similar file) which has the same problem or problems. Not only will this surely result in the re-deletion of the new version, but it will also give others the impression that you're not interested in complying with relevant Wikipedia policies and guidelines. If you repeat this type of things too many times, an adminstrator is likely going to see it as being disruptive and may take further action to prevent you from doing it anymore. -- Marchjuly (talk) 00:51, 11 October 2018 (UTC)

"nonfree image in BLP infobox"
why did you revert my edit with such a vague summary? editing wikipedia should be a learning experience. this isn't elementary school where you're just told "you're wrong".

after rereading the policy based on your second revert, I get why the picture has no place in the article. but that wasn't apparent to me on my first read, and it certainly wasn't "obvious". I should not have to persist to find out what I did wrong. — mountainhead /  ?  19:44, 29 October 2018 (UTC)

wp:3RR November 2018
Hello, you are in violation of the wp:3RR rule on both Siouxsie Sioux and the file "Siouxsie-Creaturescolor", you did 5 reverts, each time. The three-revert rule states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page. Woovee (talk) 14:48, 16 November 2018 (UTC)
 * That's nuttin. Hullaballoo Wolfowitz once did 127 reverts in seven minutes in an edit war that several battalions of us were having at Poppy. Ten administrators tried to stop us, but got caught up in friendly fire (and that's why Wikipedia is low on active admins to this day. true story). Randy Kryn (talk) 16:32, 16 November 2018 (UTC)
 * File:Siouxsie-Creaturescolor.jpg has been deleted as a violation of WP:NFCC per WP:F7: so, it appears that at least one administrator agrees with Hullaballo Wolfowitz's assessment of the file. Just because a non-free has been used in an article for a long-time doesn't mean that it's non-free use automatically complies with (or in this case complied with) Wikipedia's non-free content use policy; it could also just as easily mean that file should have been deleted/removed a long time ago but nobody experienced with Wikipedia's non-free content use policy noticed until now.Finally, I'm not sure what anything at Poppy (singer) has to do with this particular image, and it seems you are just using this as an opportunity to pile on and perhaps rekindle an old dispute. Moreover, it doesn't look as if Hullaballoo Wolfowitz has edited that article a single time and there's nothing about Hullaballoo Wolfowitz doing some major edit warring on Talk:Poppy (singer); so, maybe you're thinking of another editor or another article. Anyway, you might want to clarify this at AN3 since your post is being cited as evidence of Hullaballoo Wolfowitz's edit warring (or at least his alleged history of edit warring). -- Marchjuly (talk) 00:50, 17 November 2018 (UTC)

Image of multiple book covers
Can you assess File:HenryGordonBooks001.jpg and also its use in the author's article? Softlavender (talk) 03:56, 17 November 2018 (UTC)
 * That's a Commons file, so there's not much that can be done here; however, it appears to be an obvious derivative work which means that not only the copyright of the photo but also the book covers themselves need to be taken into account. The uploader can claim the photo as "own work" and release it under a free license if they choose to do so, but they can claim copyright ownership over the book covers if they aren't the copyright holder of them. I've tagged the file for speedy deletion; if you'd rather do a c:COM:DR instead, then feel free. -- Marchjuly (talk) 04:37, 17 November 2018 (UTC)

Shut Up And Eat Your Snowshoes, Geo
Geo Swan believes he is the Edit Summary Sherriff of Wikipedia, and has repeatedly complained about an edit summary that I have used over 1500 times, and that no other had objected to. The whole matter was discussed at some length above, and nobody else supported Geo's position. Nevertheless, Geo brings it up incessantly, here and elsewhere. It's very hard to take Geo seriously, because in the underlying content disputes he has made multiple reversions and changes without any edit summary at all. Geo's tendentious behaviour is most uncivil, even if he avoids using magic words. I will no longer respond to his repetitive nonsense here. The Big Bad Wolfowitz (aka Hullaballoo).

When you File:Ali_Musa_DaqDuq%27s_forged_ID_documents.jpg did you not notice ? Geo Swan (talk) 03:40, 27 November 2018 (UTC)


 * , once again, I encourage you, in the very strongest possible terms, to comply with the policies and conventions that require you to be polite.


 * Surely you know you are not entitled to use insulting edit summaries, like the one you used in this recent edit? "Stop purposefully playing stupid, Geo Swan. That discussion was over whether the image could be transferred to Commons as free or kept locally as nonfree, It in no way supports using the image in an article without a valid nonfree use rationale, since removal is called for by WP:NFCCE."


 * Similarly, in this edit you characterized my motives as a "spiteful rejection" of consensus. I know you have got to know this kind of language is not acceptable here.


 * You are not a genius, who is not obliged to answer questions, and explain what they think they are doing. Neither am I.  Even Jimbo Wales can't expect that he won't be asked to explain himself.  I know I have asked you to consider the points I made in Are you a genius many times.  I ask you to consider those points, again.


 * I took a look at your last 500 edit summaries. About ten percent of your recent edits have removed nonfree images with an edit summary stating you were doing so because a nonfree image was included in the article's infobox.  I failed to find any wikidocument stating nonfree images can't be used in infoboxes.  I think I told you this.  I don't think you ever explained why your edit summaries contained this claim.


 * Hullaballow Wolfowitz, I have got to be frank here. You make enough assertions that you excised images because they were "obvious" violations of NFCC, where your gut feeling proved wrong, that you should no longer excise images based on your gut feeling.  Your gut feelings are not sufficiently reliable.


 * If you placed speedy tags on nonfree images, (1) another set of eyes, that of the closing administrator, would look at your concern; (2) the individual who uploaded the image would get a clear indication of where they were going wrong, if the closing administrator backs up your concern; and (3) if you are the one who is off-base, you get a clear indication of where you went wrong.


 * I strongly encourage you to stop simply excising nonfree images. Images you excise are deleted after seven days.  Images you tag with a speedy will be deleted after seven days -- if the closing administrator backs you up.  So there is no speed advantage to excision.  Geo Swan (talk) 01:12, 4 December 2018 (UTC)

Deletion of Honolulu Star Newspaper photo
I didn't notice two things, first, that there have been some changes to the deletion guidelines (I am reviewing them) and second was your edit summary after my first revert referring specifically to NFCC#2. I will look into both as well as your other concerns before making any further reverts.--Mark Miller (talk) 22:44, 2 January 2019 (UTC)

I have made a number of changes to the article to address your concerns regarding what you believed were unattributed quotes. They were actually attributed to a newspaper article but that link expired and I have found the current link to that article as well as adding additional book sourcing to the contentious claim made about a living person.

The image itself is mentioned in the article in detail, not just about what the image depicts. A similar image by a different author/photographer had been uploaded by other users previously with, as you state, spurious rational but for a different article and a different rational. That image does have a true market value that Ed Greevy holds for Native Hawaiian activism and his images are regularly used in that market through specific books about the Hawaiian culture and contemporary Hawaiian activism. He is well known for that and is easily demonstrated. This image is from a newspaper which has published this image in multiple book publications ranging from geography to history. Its use falls within Non Free Content Criteria.

I am going to be re-adding the image shortly after I finish completing my comments on the article talk page to address your concerns and attempting to strengthen the rational however, since you might still not agree, please do not delete but nominate for deletion discussion.--Mark Miller (talk) 02:40, 3 January 2019 (UTC)

There used to be a specific page to nominate non free images for deletion. That no longer seems to be the case. Controversial deletion discussions for non free images now seem to be made at: Files for discussion now.--Mark Miller (talk) 02:52, 3 January 2019 (UTC)

One last thing (sorry for all the posts), I believe that this image does not fit criteria for speedy deletion and I have made an honest attempt in good faith to comply to our policies and guidelines as well as you concerns. I believe you are also working in good faith so I ask that after I add the image back, if you still disagree and believe it is not to non free content criteria, that we take a formal nomination discussion route That we discuss it together at the talk page between the two of us..(perhaps either of us can convince the other. If not, then perhaps we need a more formal discussion). Thanks you!--Mark Miller (talk) 02:58, 3 January 2019 (UTC)

I got sick and was unable to return to this. Since I did not return the image to the article it has been deleted as orphaned. I see no major reason to attempt to return it after deletion, at least not in the near future.--Mark Miller (talk) 21:03, 6 January 2019 (UTC)

Major Emmerdale storylines image removal
Please explain your rationale behind the image removals before I revert your edits. The images, as I see, have usage rationales (albeit all non-free, as television screenshots), and mostly been in use for 10+ years. Can you offer a fair explanation so that either alternatives can be sourced, or the originals restored? Thanks. Bungle (talk • contribs) 18:55, 23 February 2019 (UTC)
 * As I stated clearly in my edit summaries: first, the uses fails NFCC#8, because the storyline information can be adequately conveyed by text alone, and because the use rationales are generic and invalid -- conspicuously so; consider the "Tom King" image, which is justified by "It's handy to have an image to add to a description of the article", a rationale with no basis in NFC policy. The Big Bad Wolfowitz (aka Hullaballoo). Treated like dirt by many administrators since 2006.   (talk) 19:07, 23 February 2019 (UTC)
 * The thing about a soap opera, or indeed any television programme, is that the viewer (as opposed to reader) understands the nature of the scenerio by watching the events, as opposed to reading them. NFC#8 does state that the images should be "used only if its presence would significantly increase readers' understanding of the article topic", which given the text is describing events that occured relevant to the visual imagery, I personally feel would satisfy the criterion. I take your point about some of the image rationales being less than ideal, but perhaps it would be appropriate to correct these, than to simply obliterate any imagery. I take your view to a certain extent, but can't fully get on board with the conclusion you reached. If you're firm in your view, perhaps it could be passed through RFC (if anything, to ensure that other editors can see consensus one way or the other)? Bungle (talk • contribs) 19:20, 23 February 2019 (UTC)
 * I've removed quite a few such images from other articles uncontroversially. I see no reason for me to "correct" defective use rationales when I believe the uses do not conform to NFC policy. If you are determined to contest the removal, I suggest you follow the standard process and take the matter to WP:FFD, but I suggest you first review similar past discussions there. The Big Bad Wolfowitz (aka Hullaballoo). Treated like dirt by many administrators since 2006.   (talk) 19:26, 23 February 2019 (UTC)
 * I wouldn't say I am "determined to contest", but do have reservations about the removal of every image, based on your own opinion of policy, without a discussion taking place. Frankly, I am not expressing concern pertaining to "other articles", particularly if I am unaware of what they are (and it would be an excessive use of time to invest in querying any others you have applied such logic to). FFD does state: "Files that have been listed here for more than 7 days are eligible for either deletion or removal from pages if either a consensus to do so has been reached or no objections to deletion or removal have been raised." Based on this, my understanding (which may be incorrect, as I have not been previously involved with FFD), would be for the concerned party to list the images for discussion, then act upon whatever decision is reached. I take the view this may be the least controversial approach, particularly as it would allow for a reference point if future edits restore the images against consensus. I don't feel strongly enough that I would contest any potential consensus for removal of all images, but feel given the quantity (and in article percentage terms, 100%), it should at least have some discussion.

File:Guillaume Morissette.jpg
Hi, I ended up on in essence undoing your last edit on Guillaume Morissette. Non-free should be no problem for a book cover with a fair use rationale explicitly mentioning the target page and the purpose (book cover); I've seen similar fair use rationales on lots of books and albums. BLP + book in one article is slightly odd, but even together it's barely enough for a stub at the moment, splitting the page is no option. Just revert me if you have a reason for it, I only saw the "non-free orphaned file deletion warning" on the talk page of the uploader, because I edited this talk page for an unrelated reason, and considered the issue as a "low-hanging fruit" (unused => used, all is well if it ends well). –84.46.53.71 (talk) 05:20, 5 March 2019 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading File:Alan E. Nourse (ca. 1963).jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
