File:Lagoanflag (low res).jpg

Hi Explicit. Would you mind taking a look at File:Lagoanflag (low res).jpg? It was just moved from File:Lagoanflag.jpg to stop some shadowing, but there’s probably no need for a low-res non-free version of the file if the Commons one is OK. On the other hand, if the Commons one is not OK, then it may need to go depending upon whether the crown imagery is PD since the crown seems to be the only possible copyrightable element. I’m asking you since you’re an admin on both Commons and Wikipedia. — Marchjuly (talk) 01:04, 14 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Template:di-disputed fair use rationale

When you use {{di-disputed fair use rationale}}, please avoid embedding italics (''...''), because it does not work and causes [[Special:LintErrors/html5-misnesting|Misnested tag with different rendering in HTML5 and HTML4] lint errors. I just fixed this problem in File:Sechskies-Special Album.jpg by changing italics to underlining. —Anomalocaris (talk) 08:10, 16 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

File:Tucc2.PNG

Hi. Could you please undelete File:Tucc2.PNG? It became an orphan, as a user inserted a false image into the article. --Soman (talk) 00:42, 18 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Soman:

Done, file restored. Ə XPLICIT 00:05, 19 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

File:David and Mary Thomson CI Logo.svg

You deleted this as unused. However, I suspect that it was meant to be used in David and Mary Thomson Collegiate Institute. Someone had uploaded the logo to Commons under a different file name (c:File:David and Mary Thomson Collegiate logo.svg), and the file has now been deleted on Commons. It seems that the file has also been uploaded as c:File:David and Mary Thomson CI Logo.svg a few times and then deleted. Could you check this? --Stefan2 (talk) 01:18, 23 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Stefan2: I've restored the local file and added it back to the article. Ə XPLICIT 11:54, 23 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Requested undelete of image for assessment

File:Sul Ross Statue.JPG was recently deleted. I did not see a notice on it, but I believe it would be useful still at the Sul Ross State University page. I don't know why it was orphaned, but appears to be still useful. Please restore. If I cannot find an appropriate use for it, I will personally nominate for speedy deletion.

@Buffs:

Done – as a contested proposed deletion, the file has been restored upon request. Ə XPLICIT 00:12, 24 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. Added to the subject's page in lieu of a darker/less clear version of the statue. I would submit that this is probably a clear example of an image that should be moved to Commons. Buffs (talk) 14:44, 24 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

WAM 2019 Postcard: All postcards are postponed due to the postal system shut down

Dear all participants and organizers,

Since the outbreak of COVID-19, all the postcards are postponed due to the shut down of the postal system all over the world. Hope all the postcards can arrive as soon as the postal system return and please take good care.

Best regards,

Wikipedia Asian Month International Team 2020.03

You (Explicit)shut down the page amBX after I requested you NOT do so. Unlike you, I'm not on here regularly. Your reason for deletion was spurious when every major product, business etc are on Wikipedia for information (See Apple https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple_Inc.) Please reinstate the amBX page. If you are unwilling to do so (it was due edits which is how I found out about the PROD), then as an administrator, explain how & who I can appeal this incorrect & arbitrary decision to. Steve.
