Hi Richwales, I just happened to notice this now, though it happened about six weeks ago. You blocked on 5 March for a month for edit warring and failure to communicate. They returned a few weeks later, and continued edit wars from 5 March (though in different articles than the one you mentioned) with the same old edits as they have many times before, and still without any communication. They haven't edited since then, so I'm not sure if anything needs to be done, but I thought you should know.


 * In Azerbaijani language:, previously: , , and similar edits: , , , and more. See also their edits under their previous account , e.g. and others.
 * In Azerbaijanis:  (also includes false changes to population figures), previously:, , , and similar edits: , , , and others.

Pretty much all of their edits are just the same few tendentious things over and over, mostly changing "Azeri" to "Azerbaijani Turkish" or just "Turkish", and similar things. I think all of their edits have been reverted, so it doesn't seem like they're contributing anything. Thanks for taking a look... --IamNotU (talk) 16:28, 13 June 2020 (UTC)

Replaceable fair use File:Ri Chun-hee, North Korean TV presenter.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Ri Chun-hee, North Korean TV presenter.jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:


 * 1) Go to the file description page and add the text  below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing   with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
 * 2) On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on [ this link]. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. – Finnusertop (talk ⋅ contribs) 05:41, 20 June 2020 (UTC)
