User:Ab207 User:CyphoidbombTo the concerned user, I just logged in now and I am new to using wikipedia so I really don't know how & what works. I just saw this notification now. I am sorry if I am offending you but my only concern here is to get a latest image updated not a 10 years old one. That's it ! — Preceding unsigned comment added by ForAkshan2 (talk • contribs) 19:36, 13 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

User:ForAkshan2 you can not have that image because it is a copyright issue. And please stick to log in and dont have two accounts. The 10 year image is better as there are not any others on this wikipedia and we don't have copyrighted issue photoshoot's images here. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 109.158.70.191 (talk) 19:59, 13 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

And really User:ForAkshan2 do you want us to beleve that this is your only account you are using if that's the case then explain you did this edit where you changed the image to the copyrighted image [1] and then the ip did the same edit here [2] which is quite proof that is is you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 109.158.70.191 (talk) 20:16, 13 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Guys, please sign your comments by using four tildes like this ~~~~, else notifications don't work. Cyphoidbomb, please note. There seems to be an ongoing edit war. -- Ab207 (talk) 20:43, 13 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Both of you IP editors need to discuss which image to use. That said, 1) we cannot use copyright violations or images without proper fair-use justification, 2) we can't use images with watermarks and 3) the images should be portraits, since the point of an image is to identify the subject. See Brad Pitt. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 20:49, 13 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

User:Cyphoidbomb i already nominated for 2 month protection for this page. Can you change it to two months. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 109.158.70.191 (talk) 21:02, 13 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

That seems excessive for a relatively recent edit-warring flareup. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 21:12, 13 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

User:Ab207 User:Cyphoidbomb I am talking in a very polite tone & I expect the same in return. About me not using one account, I just said, I was not logged in & hence couldn't see these messages. Yes I was editing without logging in but cause I was new I was not aware that's not allowed. About the copyrighted image, trust me, this image that I am trying to update has been posted by Nishant Singh Malkani himself free to use for his fans. This was shot by flimingo production. And none of them have any objection to them being published. Yes I made a mistake that I didn't put a license but that's cause, I am new to this & don't know how or where to put license & under what license this falls. Its my humble request please let the latest available image of him be used if not this one. Please understand I only intend for the latest image to be used, if not this one then let the one from February 2020 be used for time being which is available till we get a licensed new one Nishant Malkani in 2020 (cropped).jpg ForAkshan2 (talk) 21:24, 13 March 2021 (UTC)ForAkshan2 (talk) 21:22, 13 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

ForAkshan2 No the one I that is currently on is much better and that image you added from his social media. We don’t use images from Instagram or Twitter. Please understand this and reply if you do. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 109.158.70.191 (talk) 21:53, 13 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

109.158.70.191 Ok I understand that image from photoshoots can't be used. But we can get image his other images right, that is portrait and is not copyrighted by anyone ? Like screenshot from his lives or interviews that does not have any watermark ? And personally I think his picture from February 2020 is better one than the one in use. I want his latest image to be used. — Preceding unsigned comment added by ForAkshan2 (talk • contribs) 22:10, 13 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

No you can’t. No we can’t have screenshots either. The best place for good images is here [3]. Anyways there is nothing wrong with the one that is on. Until you learn or find a good image from Bollywood hungama then this will stay. Please reply if you understand ForAkshan2 for example look in the image Deepika Singh, Zayn Malik, Brad Pitt that’s no portrait, screenshot, image from a good source (Deepika’s from Bollywood hungama) and it’s not a photo shoot either — Preceding unsigned comment added by 109.158.70.191 (talk) 22:16, 13 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The one that is in use is 10 years old. And Nishant Malkani looks very different now & much better than that. He looks different enough that I couldn't recognize him when he entered his latest show. That's why I am asking for a latest picture. About screenshots I am not asking for random screeshots. I am asking for screenshots from his interviews that looks like the one you are suggesting. And sorry I do not know exact fact but Zayan Malik's one looks like a photoshoot. And can't we get his images from other sites other than Bollywood hungama ? like times of India, Hindustan times or any other ? — Preceding unsigned comment added by ForAkshan2 (talk • contribs) 22:29, 13 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

ForAkshan2 No you can’t Bollywood Hungama is the only one. We only can you times of India and hindustantimes for reliable sources not images. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 109.158.70.191 (talk) 22:36, 13 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

ForAkshan2 No you can’t Bollywood Hungama is the only one. We only can you times of India and hindustantimes for reliable sources not images. Please understand try find a image of Nishant on Bollywood hungama if not than I think you have to wait as I said before no screenshots of interviews. Only Bollywood hungama is the one we can use here.

Why Only Bollywood Hungama ? why not any other credible sites ? And why as people we are not having our freedom to upload his images that is owned by us ? In lives he is talking to us, if we takes screenshot, that's an image we own. Even Bollywood hungama is post pictures that are screenshots of interviews. How & why is Bollywood hungama the only one when there are so many other credible cites ? — Preceding unsigned comment added by ForAkshan2 (talk • contribs) 22:46, 13 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

ForAkshan2 Because of copyright those images are not by you. Have you heard of copyright. If you can’t understand that their is rules here then sorry you can’t come here and add images like that. Look in here [4] see many images of Indian pages use Bollywood hungama. Please understand this and that you can use any images on themes of India, Hindustan times. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 109.158.70.191 (talk) 23:03, 13 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

ForAkshan2 There is rules here and Wikipedia is not a fan site. If you want to add any images of your own than go on another fan site not here as everything has rules to follow so sorry can’t help you in this matter more. In my advice is to leave the current image as there is nothing wrong. I don’t think you understood what I or the admin Cyphoid has told you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 109.158.70.191 (talk) 23:07, 13 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

User:Cyphoidbomb Can you explain more in detail about copyright images with this ForAkshan2 as I think he hasn’t understood and is keep talking about him being a fan needing his freedom to upload images which are from Nishants social media or screenshot from other cites like Times of India when I have told him the cite which is good for images is Bollywood hungama. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 109.158.70.191 (talk) 23:12, 13 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

109.158.70.191 I was not asking for taking screenshot from times of India but taking images from them just like how it is taken from Bollywood Hungama. Does asking to get an updated image makes a site fan site ? (dear admins & people of authority please note if rudeness or any personal attack is coming from me or not & the tone I am receiving here) please not Yes there is rules & I understand it very well ! But I do not understand the rule that only images from bollywood hungama can be published not from any other sites. As I see it written no where that the images should be only from this particular site. To clear out I am NOT advertising any other site or putting the credibility of Bollywood Hungama down. But unfortunately the image requirement being asked here can be seen fulfilled by other sites & the picture here is very old. I am not asking for the image that I uploaded be updated but any other later image. And I am asking for the other available picture to be updated since the the actor's look has changed significantly in 10 years. I repeat I am not asking for the one I uploaded be used but there is another later one taken from Bollywood humgama in Fabruary 2020. I am requesting this change as I as a reader of wikipedia see wrong in the current image as the look of the actor has significantly changed & so may many others see the same. — Preceding unsigned comment added by ForAkshan2 (talk • contribs) 23:31, 13 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

ForAkshan2 Sorry the current picture stays as there is nothing wrong with it. You need to stop arguing with other users over something like this. Yes there is rules here to add images because of copyright. Do you even know what copyright means go and check on google and understand. I am ending this here and the current image is fine. In Wikipedia no one cares about looks as well. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 109.158.70.191 (talk) 08:49, 14 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

109.158.70.191 If you have read properly, I said I understand now that the picture I uploaded doesn't comply the copyright requriments. "Do you even know what copyright means go and check on google and understand" A statement such as this is rude & personal. Now coming to the current image in use, I as a wikipedia viewer & reader see wrong in it ! And hence I request the other image that complies the copyright requirements be used instead. This one : Nishant_Malkani_in_2020_(cropped).jpg . If in Wikipedia no one cares about look then why is the image even there ? remove both then ? Everyone cares about fact that's why edit is open for all isn't it ? Again before another assumption is thrown my way that I don't understand copyright issues let me clear : I am asking for the other image to be used instead that is available NOT the one uploaded by me !!! 27.147.226.224 (talk) 11:16, 14 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

ForAkshan2 No we are not deleting that image as nothing is wrong and plus we can’t use the 2020 one either as it has watermarks on and we don’t allow that here. Plus you did use the word fan over up here where your talking about your freedom to do anything what you want here. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 109.158.70.191 (talk) 11:54, 14 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

And I have told you time and time again we only allow certain images to come here and include the Bollywood hungama site images. We CANNOT USE ANY IMAGES FROM SITES WHICH HAS A COPYRIGHT ISSUE. I was not being rude or not making any personal attacks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 109.158.70.191 (talk) 11:58, 14 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
