File source problem with File:Shanghai Automotive Industry Corporation (SAIC) Logo.jpg
Thank you for uploading File:Shanghai Automotive Industry Corporation (SAIC) Logo.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. Please add this information by editing the image description page.

If the necessary information is not added within the next seven days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

Please refer to the image use policy to learn what images you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. Please also check any other files you have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a [ list of your uploads]. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. —&thinsp;JJMC89&thinsp; (T·C) 15:55, 31 August 2021 (UTC)


 * Hey there. I'm only recently contributing media, so I'm still learning the ropes on this one. The image is from the SAIC Motor website itself. As per Commons:Threshold_of_originality, it seems this image qualifies as non-copyrightable content. What's the best, correct course of action here? I need only provide the original address in a summary, yes? – No coffee, please. (talk) 16:47, 31 August 2021 (UTC)


 * I think I've properly reclassified File:Shanghai Automotive Industry Corporation (SAIC) Logo.jpg with an added summary. Please let me know if you have any concerns. – No coffee, please. (talk) 17:26, 31 August 2021 (UTC)

File:Dongfeng Motor Group logo.jpg
The file was deleted before in commons that the file is ineligible to PD due to TOOChina. Please discuss it before boldly determine it is PD in US. At least I against it as "simple shape". Matthew hk (talk) 22:28, 31 August 2021 (UTC)


 * BOLD 🤷‍♂️ — Can you please link to the discussion in commons? I can't find any trace of this. Quick judgement was made on comparing to the standards laid out by Logos and a look at Category:Public_domain_images_ineligible_for_copyright_(logo) — No coffee, please.

EV cars and large categorization and category changes
Hi No coffee, please. I've seen a "Thank" from you, and a few notes on my Talk page, so know a lot of EV cats recategorization is going on. Do you have a place where you've described the overall plan?

I contested one of the speedys on the Category deletes, just so a discussion might ensue. You've probably already got it handled in some new way... but I don't know how to easily see what that is. So, just direct me to the most general discussion of the major effort you have underway. Cheeers. N2e (talk) 15:25, 20 September 2021 (UTC)


 * Hey N2e! Please take a look at Talk:List_of_electric_cars_currently_available, where we've most recently spoken. I'm doing a bit of additional summarization on this right now, which I'll proliferate as best I can to all the pages with additional requests for comment and general recommendations. I'm making a few off-the-cuff decisions and only keeping paper notes as I'm working through the cobwebs, and I can only assure you I'm giving careful thought as I'm working through these problems, with the intent to swing back around for additional transparency where needed.


 * Right now, category work is focused on consolidating all the disparate, deeply nested categories under Electric Vehicles to start. With specific regards to your battery-electric concept cars category, there was a pre-existing category under  Electric Concept Cars which now consists of the two categories, consolidated. (I believe there was a third smaller category called Proposed Electric Cars as well, consisting almost entirely of concept cars.) I think I know where a discussion on that one might be headed, but let's start there with the most essential question: Any issues with such a move?

Categories
Hello, No coffee, please.,

I've noticed that you are emptying out a lot of categories concerning batteries and electric vehicles. This is considered "emptying out of process" and is actively discouraged. If you believe that a category should be renamed, merged or deleted, please make a proposal at Categories for Discussion, there are instructions on this page that tell you how to do this. Also, please do not "blank" a category page, that is not helpful for other editors.

If you have questions about categories or deletion processes, please bring them to the Teahouse where experienced editors can offer you some assistance. Thank you. Liz Read! Talk! 17:48, 20 September 2021 (UTC)


 * Hey Liz, there is active discussion surrounding this already in a number of different places, over the past several years, with clear conclusions, but zero actual movement. I've documented as much of this discussion as I can in as many places as I can find, most recently at Talk:List_of_electric_cars_currently_available. --No coffee, please. (talk) 18:45, 20 September 2021 (UTC)


 * There are many, many categories in this space (about a dozen) with considerable overlap, errors, and out of date information — and about a half dozen lists in similarly bad shape. There is no 'single' merge to be done, no single action, but rather about a half dozen conversations to be had that overlap considerably. If you'd like to help facilitate, please do read the above page, I'm happy to field any proposals on how to effectively attack this problem in a more in-process way. --No coffee, please.
