Don 2 poster
This file had a consensus of 4:2 to keep it. So why was it deleted? X.One SOS 06:26, 31 December 2011 (UTC)
- I don't count !votes, I weigh the strength of arguments against one another. As far as I could tell, the keep !votes failed to address the concerns raised by the delete !votes and the nominator. -FASTILY (TALK) 08:15, 31 December 2011 (UTC)
- I'm sorry, but one user had asked us to cover the notability of the poster from a reliable source and I gave one listing out all the 3d posters of the film! What other argument was there? Could you please restore it so that I could take a better look? Thanks. X.One SOS 14:36, 31 December 2011 (UTC)
- Specifically, the keep !votes based arguments solely on WP:ILIKEIT, instead of addressing/refuting the concerns made by the nominator, which was that the file failed to meet WP:NFCC#3a and WP:NFCC#8. You're welcome to try and convince me otherwise, but I will reconsider only if you are able to explain how the arguments to keep the file made in the debate refute the nominator's concerns. And no, I cannot return this file for you to view. -FASTILY Happy 2012!! 07:08, 1 January 2012 (UTC)
- I apologize if I seemed too impatient. Coming to the debate, the criterion "NFCC#3a" says that multiple images should not convey equivalent significant information. As this is a 3d poster, it can be significantly distinguished from the 2d poster. As usually happening in western countries, in India this film has not been shot directly in 3d, but actually converted using a special technology. A poster, by definition is a screenshot of a film modified to add text and other visual effects to promote it. Due to its indirect conversion, which is one of the first in India, the poster conveys the above statement, without neglecting the fact that this is not the usual style seen in 3d films. The 3d resolution requires special lenses to view it, but one can easily make out the difference even without a 3d glass. Per "NFCC#8", its omission would indeed be detrimental to the understanding, as the world is not very familiar with what exactly 3d conversion leads to, and this is the result of it. Hope I made it clear. Again, I apologize for impatience. And a happy 2012 to you! Thanks. X.One SOS 08:48, 1 January 2012 (UTC)
- The poster does not show the process of making it 3D, it does not make any particular effort to illustrate the difference between 2D and 3D, it's not in 3D itself, it's just a screenshot of the film with the word 3D on it. If it is true that this is one of the first films to be shot in 3D, and this fact is covered in reliable, third party sources, it still would not justify the use of the second movie poster. It might justify a screenshot of the movie in theaters, showing what the projection looks like without 3D glasses, as that would illustrate the concept in a way that the movie poster did not do. I'm not saying that this isn't important, I'm saying that there are other, better ways to illustrate this, and that we have to be extra careful in selecting non-free media.

Problems with user 88.247.101.165 and 46.196.33.96.
Hello again, Yesterday we talked about this users and i felt that you don't believe me. The users I mentioned are the same person. One day before this user: 88.247.101.165 , and yesterday, with user 46.196.33.96. ( you warned him once!!!!!!!) Two of these users did not reply earlier times and argue with me about the same issues. They do not bring me their proof and they simply change the article, I got proof (on the talk page of Ben Gurion Airport) and they ignore them. I noticed that this 2 users edit the same things and always edit the same articles (especially Turkish airports).--Friends147 (talk) 14:53, 31 December 2011 (UTC)

Please restore Talk:Harvard/MIT Cooperative Society. According to the log, you speedily deleted it for housekeeping, yet it has an associated article Harvard/MIT Cooperative Society. --Hroðulf (or Hrothulf) (Talk) 17:20, 31 December 2011 (UTC)

- User talk:Mjl3111996 is uploading a massive amount of images that are copyrighted claiming they are his and will not stop putting them into articles. File:KIMQB2.png and File:Lil' Kim 2011.jpg both need deleted as they are not his. - (CK)Lakeshade - talk2me - 21:46, 31 December 2011 (UTC)

Improper speedy deletion of Gift of the Givers
Hi Fastily,
As a card-carrying deletionist, I have no problem with speedy deletions in general for ad pages, but as I recall, Gift of the Givers was in no way an ad page! It was a page about an organisation that has been featured in BBC documentaries, newspaper articles, etc. Definitely a notable topic, and if there was a bit of fluff about the founder's motivations, that was not cause for a speedy deletion - rather a maintenance template! Can you please put the old text of the page somewhere under my user page hierarchy so that I can review and improve it?
Thanks, --Slashme (talk) 22:24, 31 December 2011 (UTC)
- Sure. Click here to view it. -FASTILY (TALK) 23:30, 31 December 2011 (UTC)

Delete of Template:Lyon
Hi, this template was unnecessary because it already Template:Olympique Lyonnais I have a template named and think it is more a template. Do you wonder could you delete? We wish you a good year.

07:12, 1 January 2012 Fastily (talk | contribs) deleted "File:LK&LKE-all-tautomers.png" (F3: Media file with improper license)
Updated-LK&LKE.png
I screwed up and did put an incorrect license info when I first uploaded the file for the creator.
I protested the proposed deletion, but either not fast enough, or my protest was not valid so the file disappeared.
Here is the corrected information for the file, but I can't get past a notice that this file has previously been deleted.
{{cc-by-sa-3.0|Kenneth Hensley, Ph.D.}}
Author: Kenneth Hensley, Ph.D., Associate Professor, Department of Pathology and Department of Neurosciences, Research Director, Department of Pathology, University of Toledo Medical Center Squeakycatta (talk) 08:35, 1 January 2012 (UTC)
When I upload, I get the following message: A file identical to this file (File:LK&LKE-all-tautomers.png) has previously been deleted. You should check that file's deletion history before proceeding to re-upload it.
When I check the file's deletion history, I get the following: Wikipedia does not have a File page with this exact title. Please do not manually create this page. If you wish to upload a file called LK&LKE-all-tautomers.png, see Wikipedia:Uploading images for instructions. If this image was recently deleted, it may still be displayed in some pages as a red link. See a list of pages that display this image.
Full circle.
I would like to do the right thing as far as Wikipedia, really. The author does not have the patience to deal with this sort of problem which is why I am attempting to get this corrected file uploaded for him.
At this point, I am at a complete loss on how to get this corrected image uploaded and any direction will be greatly appreciated.

User:Ryulong
Hello, Fastily! I'm afraid that I have to report User:Ryulong to you.I don't know why, but he is removing images from articles like Tom and Jerry, Pantaloon Retail India, Rural area.Examples include this, or this.I'm not all all interested in edit-wars, so any advice.I would probably be getting out of the argument going on at Pantaloon Retail India.Bye.Dipankan In the woods? 12:28, 1 January 2012 (UTC)
- The photo on Tom and Jerry is a derivative work and is going to be deleted from the commons. I may be mistaken, but I do not think the photo of that store front is allowed on the Commons either, but I will let that discussion follow through. And finally, that photo of a "Rural area" is a poor quality photo. The other photos on rural area are fine. It does not need a blurry photo of a grassy field in India.—Ryulong (竜龙) 21:24, 1 January 2012 (UTC)
- Dipankan, I think that you may be seeking adminship; the first thing you should understand is copyright, as your file mover permission was removed for a lack of understanding of the subject. HurricaneFan25 — 22:36, 1 January 2012 (UTC)
tUnE-yArDs (what an eyesore...)
Hi Fastily,
Happy New Year! A little while ago you were very helpful in semi-protecting an article. This time around I've come to ask you for another favor, moving an article if that's okay. Musician Tune-Yards's article is styled as tUnE-yArDs (urgh...), but I can't move it myself. To get through the redtape and the waiting time at Request Moves takes a very long time, would you be so kind to enforce WP:TITLEFORMAT? I appreciate your help. Thanks. --Soetermans. T / C 13:42, 1 January 2012 (UTC)
- We're not here to have articles according to stylization though... just like we never created Prince's symbol as a font :-) (talk→ BWilkins ←track) 13:47, 1 January 2012 (UTC)
- Here as in Fastily's talk page, or here as in Wikipedia? :P English isn't my mother tongue and eventhough I consider myself to be near-fluent in the language, sometimes I can't fully understand what is said (or written) - I'm afraid I don't truly get what you are trying to say, Bwilkins... Would you mind rephrasing the thing you said? :) --Soetermans. T / C 14:00, 1 January 2012 (UTC)

Dear sir,
I am working for this NGO "Parivartann- Change for better". I just wanted to put one page on wiki just for information. Anybody who know this organization can edit them. Please allow me to create one simple page.
You have deleted that page under G8. As I am a new guy in wiki, I am clueless even after going through the details. Please help me to rectify my errors.

Speedy Deletion of American International School of Vienna
Hi,
You deleted American International School of Vienna, due to: (G12: Unambiguous copyright infringement of http://newkai.com/reviews/ais/)
I am the owner and author of the said text on newkai.com and the author of the original text on Wikipedia. Does this still make it copyright infringement? Can I infringe on my own copyright? What do I need to do to get this article restored? -newkai t-c 15:35, 1 January 2012 (UTC)
Speedy Deletion of 21st Missouri Volunteer Infantry
The alleged "copyrighted material" at http://www.wellsclan.us/History/generatn/21regmnt.htm was not material created by that website, but was an extract from Dyer, Frederick H. A Compendium of the War of the Rebellion (Des Moines, IA: Dyer Pub. Co.), 1908. "Dyer's" is a text in the public domain, and is commonly used as a (or the) source document for most of the Wikipedia entries for Union regiments from the American Civil War. My article in Wikipedia used an extract from "Dyer's" (and stated as much), as did the author of the page at the wellsclan.us website (working separately). The wellsclan.us website in question states that the information on that page is an extract from "Dyer's", as was the deleted page on the 21st Missouri Volunteer Infantry. There were NO plagiarism, and NO copyright infringement. The two documents were created separately extracting the same document which is now in the public domain. Please reinstate the deleted Wiki page for the 21st Missouri Volunteer Infantry.
I stand ready to provide any addition information you might require.--WSS Regt Historian (talk) 19:07, 1 January 2012 (UTC)
- Very well then, go ahead and recreate the article. -FASTILY Happy 2012!! 20:53, 1 January 2012 (UTC)
Following up to your last statement "Very well then, go ahead and recreate the article"...Does this mean that my work was irrecoverably destroyed without discussion? And, what is to prevent the individual who initiated this process from having the restored articles, or other articles which use "Dyers" from being similary destroyed? The process is not transpartent on this end. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.205.7.60 (talk) 21:14, 1 January 2012 (UTC)
- @Fastily: Are you standing by your WP:CSD#G12 deletion? If you are disputing User:WSS Regt Historian's claim, please say so. If not, please restore the article. Thincat (talk) 21:35, 1 January 2012 (UTC)
- Thank you. I hope the categorisation as unambiguous copyright infringement was a momentary aberration. Thincat (talk) 21:41, 1 January 2012 (UTC)
Hi. I've restored this, as its deletion isn't non-controversial. The redirect is in active use; I discovered it had been deleted when I tried to tag an image with Twinkle, and found it dead. It is still linked from WP:CSD. I myself believe it is probably a useful redirect, as an easy shortcut to remember, and would prefer to see it go through deletion debate if you think it needs to go away. Thanks. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 20:29, 1 January 2012 (UTC)
- The problem with using
{{Db-unfree}}
in twinkle is that it doesn't fill in the date parameters required by{{Di-orphaned fair use}}
(the redirect target of Template:Db-unfree). I'll file a bug report to get this fixed. -FASTILY Happy 2012!! 20:55, 1 January 2012 (UTC)- Thanks. I hate to lose easy-to-remember redirects, but if for some reason it can't be fixed, maybe Twinkle can be reconfigured and the pages that suggest the template be changed to the template to work. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 21:02, 1 January 2012 (UTC)
File:Melatonin-pronunciation.ogg, etc, etc
It looks to me that the Melatonin article is using the pronunciation sound file you have nominated at Wikipedia:Files_for_deletion/2011_December_29#File:Melatonin-pronunciation.ogg for being orphaned and of no forseeable use. Am I missing something? Are you missing something? It was not orphaned when a bot tagged it as being so. I cannot find the file on Commons. I do not understand the corresponding Fbot activity[2]. This also applies at least to the next few nominations you have made. I do not have the ability to do mass checking. Can you double-check and let be know what is going wrong? Thincat (talk) 21:27, 1 January 2012 (UTC)

Please undo your deletion of Template:CtC
Fastily, please undo your deletion of CtC. It's a shorthand that I use personally (which is why I created it), and which I use as a personal shortlist (since no one else uses CtC, the 'what links here' function takes me to a list of files I personally vetted for transfer). Obviously with the drive starting now the timing on this couldn't be worse. I realize that this is a strange request, but I don't see the harm in it. Sven Manguard Wha? 21:46, 1 January 2012 (UTC)
- You mean, you actually use that?? Freak. ;) -FASTILY Happy 2012!! 21:47, 1 January 2012 (UTC)
- Apparently you got rid of more than just my shorthand, I see FSII knocked out a few others as well. Just so you know, I am rather miffed that you didn't even leave me a deletion notice. Aside from the fact that you really can't do what you just did, I'd have defended it at the deletion forum, and had it looked like it was going sour, I'd have copied over the list to a sandbox page before you had FSII scatter things to the far winds. Grrrr... Sven Manguard Wha? 21:52, 1 January 2012 (UTC)
- >.< It was meant to assist Fbot Task 14, but I'll see if I can create an exemption for CtC. Again, I had no idea that you were using that to track your contributions... -FASTILY Happy 2012!! 22:09, 1 January 2012 (UTC)
- It's okay, you don't need to make an exception. There might be a problem, however, when all of the other people who use the shorthand templates go to use them and find they don't work. My suggestion is that you re-create the shorthand templates, and program a bot that catches instances of the shorthands being added and converts them to the proper template. A BRFA should be pretty easy for that, I think. Sven Manguard Wha? 01:18, 2 January 2012 (UTC)
