List of personnel changes...
I opened Sockpuppet investigations/Vallabharebel a few days ago on this one. There seems to be a backlog - someone must be on holiday or something. Obvs them, but it doesn't stop the hassle. Also I found this complaint at WT:CRIC odd to say the least, but there you go I suppose. Just about to deal with the India under-19 women's page. Wish me luck...

Women’s Premier League logo
You recently added speedy deletion request on Women’s Premier League logo uploaded by me.. We all know a league logo is property of its owner and this work is property of BCCI and I too mentioned owner name in commons, along with it I also shared the Facebook link of Image shared by WPL official page from where I downloaded it. Then how that can be a copyright work if I have given all credits. At last someone have to upload logo, BCCI itself isn’t going to upload it on Wikipedia. Other logos uploaded on Wikipedia are not reliable and some are screenshots. The one you uploaded is too a screenshot with blue background, which is obviously not good for info-box. I kindly request you to remove deletion tag, so that I can place that logo on infobox or tell me what I did wrong. Gorav 💬 12:15, 14 February 2023 (UTC)
 * The logo, and therefore also its copyright, belongs to the Board of Control for Cricket in India, and so it is not a free image, unless the BCCI released it as such. Commons doesn't accept any copyrighted images, and there are no exceptions to this, which is why it cannot be hosted on Commons. I have uploaded the image on English Wikipedia using appropriate fair use rationale- note that the logo can only be used on Women's Premier League (cricket) and not 2023 Women's Premier League (cricket) (because the logo is of the general tournament rather than the 2023 edition specifically). <b style="color:#0033ab">Joseph</b><b style="color:#000000">2302</b> (talk) 12:24, 14 February 2023 (UTC)

Thanks for clarification. Have a great day. <span style="background:#000000;color:white;padding:5px;box-shadow:0 1px 1px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.2)">Gorav <span style="background:#eaecf0;padding:2px;box-shadow:0 1px 1px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.2)">💬 12:39, 14 February 2023 (UTC)

I have uploaded the official logo on English Wikipedia according to Wikipedia guidelines. Can I update the logo now? <span style="background:#000000;color:white;padding:5px;box-shadow:0 1px 1px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.2)">Gorav <span style="background:#eaecf0;padding:2px;box-shadow:0 1px 1px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.2)">💬 13:45, 14 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Yes, looks good to me, thanks. <b style="color:#0033ab">Joseph</b><b style="color:#000000">2302</b> (talk) 13:48, 14 February 2023 (UTC)

Thanks Joseph you taught a lot to me about copyright logos upload. Wish you a nice life ahead.🍻 <span style="background:#000000;color:white;padding:5px;box-shadow:0 1px 1px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.2)">Gorav <span style="background:#eaecf0;padding:2px;box-shadow:0 1px 1px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.2)">💬 13:54, 14 February 2023 (UTC)

Women's Premier League editing
There is some typo mistakes in 'Player auction', you should fix it.Rock Stone Gold Castle (talk) 03:58, 16 February 2023 (UTC)


 * I don't know what those typos are, so not going to fix them myself. Anyone can edit it to fix it. <b style="color:#0033ab">Joseph</b><b style="color:#000000">2302</b> (talk) 09:49, 16 February 2023 (UTC)

BCCI
Hi, I read your logo discuss. BCCI article have its logo and Indian national cricket team use this logo on its uniform, helmet, so we should add it to the latter article. But others will not allow this due to CR. I want you to add it. Rock Stone Gold Castle (talk) 04:03, 16 February 2023 (UTC)
 * The current version of the logo on India national cricket team was uploaded onto Commons, which is incorrect (as the logo is copyrighted, and Commons doesn't accept any copyrighted images). Regardless of whether the Indian teams use the logo, it's the logo of the BCCI not the Indian national cricket team, so I don't believe it meets all of the criteria for non-free content to be used, in fact there was previously a discussion to remove it from the Indian team article at Files for discussion/2016 February 18. <b style="color:#0033ab">Joseph</b><b style="color:#000000">2302</b> (talk) 09:55, 16 February 2023 (UTC)
