Unblocking request
Hi @Yann I’am still inaccessible on Commons for my unwanted, unintentional mistake. I apologised for that and fix of problem files to CC-zero license. So be so kind to unblock me I would be able to continue for my remaining live activity. I hope for your generosity. Sincerely Zemanst (talk) 09:15, 18 April 2025 (UTC)
- @Zemanst: You still have a lot of files with an improper CC-0 license. You can't it use for files copied from the Internet. So please fix these, and write a proper unblocking request on your talk page. Thanks, Yann (talk) 10:44, 18 April 2025 (UTC)
- I went through all possible files and put in a CC-0 license. I hope I have already fulfilled your comments. So I am asking for unblocking again, please. Zemanst (talk) 21:09, 19 April 2025 (UTC)
- @Zemanst: Hi, I told you above that CC-0 is not OK. For old documents, you must provide the license according to the date of publication and the author's death. If the author died more than 100 years ago, you can use
{{PD-Art|PD-old-100-expired}}
. If the author died more than 70 years ago and the document was published before 1930, you can use{{PD-Art|PD-old-70-expired}}

Anna Boleyn
Hi. I have now uploaded https://archive.org/details/anna-boleyn-1920-by-ernst-lubitsch to File:Anna Boleyn (1920, 1080p, silent) by Ernst Lubitsch.webm for you (silent due to unfree soundtrack). Please attend to the licensing. — 🇺🇦Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 10:40, 18 April 2025 (UTC)
- @Jeff G.: Hi, Thanks, but please do not mention my email in the description. And this was already uploaded at File:Anna Boleyn (1920) by Ernst Lubitsch.webm. Yann (talk) 10:59, 18 April 2025 (UTC)
- Sorry, I didn't realize that was your email address, it came directly from archive.org via v2c. This upload has an extra 1m39s vs. the one you mentioned, what do you make of that? — 🇺🇦Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 11:12, 18 April 2025 (UTC)
- @Jeff G.: I don't know. The latest versions were uploaded by Hinnk and OGPawlis. May be they know? Yann (talk) 11:21, 18 April 2025 (UTC)
- The file I uploaded was the Internet Archive version, trimmed to remove contemporary (potentially copyrightable) animations, logos, and descriptions. @OGPawlis's update seems to indicate that they prepared the current version from a higher-quality version of the same restoration and trimmed it at roughly the same points. hinnk (talk) 12:00, 18 April 2025 (UTC)

Please assist me in understanding
@Yann: Please see my talk page. You reverted my csd tagging of multiple images and put a vandalism warning on my talk page. I have responded on my talk page with comments. I am certainly not a Wikimedia vandal, nor were these test edits All of the speedy delete tags were done in good faith with explanations. I'd appreciate more information in the form of a comment on my talk page. I spend most of my time on English Wikipedia, so I might not respond quickly. ERcheck (talk) 17:11, 18 April 2025 (UTC)
- @ERcheck: Hi, Your deletion request rationale is just nonsense. We do not need any permission for images of sport events. Anyway, this is a not valid reason for speedy deletions. Your edits only create more work for admins and others. Yann (talk) 17:54, 18 April 2025 (UTC)
- My apologies. I misinterpreted Commons:Country specific consent requirements. It was in no way my intent to disrupt or make more work. ERcheck (talk) 18:28, 18 April 2025 (UTC)

Photos of me
If you want, you can delete them all. All are in category User hr. August Dominus (talk) 14:16, 21 April 2025 (UTC)
hello.
Hello, about my images that can be deleted.
All those images are not my work. For each biography I have provided a link to the book from which I took the images. I don't know what more I can do than that. The author of the books is a neighbor of mine, a university professor, but he is very old, almost 90 years old, and is in a wheelchair.
all I know is that he worked for 10 years on these books, which I had a hard time obtaining, and they are some unique biographies, unique information. It's a shame that they don't appear on Wikipedia.
I get all images from these books, and I mention on each image the link:
https://archive.org/details/pestean-viorel-iulian-oameni-de-seama-ai-stiintei-agricole-romanesti-vol.-1 https://archive.org/details/pestean-viorel-iulian-oameni-de-seama-ai-stiintei-agricole-romanesti-vol.-2 https://archive.org/details/pestean-viorel-iulian-oameni-de-seama-ai-stiintei-agricole-romanesti-vol.-3
For example, my last image https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Nicolae_Filip.jpg is taken by this source:

Hi, why did you keep this? Hekerui (talk) 19:52, 26 April 2025 (UTC)
- You undeleted it? How do you know it was even published? Guessed? Hekerui (talk) 19:54, 26 April 2025 (UTC)
- @Hekerui: There is a valid license, and old images are considered published unless proved otherwise. Photographs were published when leaving the photographer's custody. Yann (talk) 18:36, 27 April 2025 (UTC)
I see that you removed the copyright violation tag on this file. Is this work not in copyright in the US ? It has been removed from Wikisource because of that. -- Beardo (talk) 13:55, 27 April 2025 (UTC)
- @Beardo: Hi, It is not very clear why it would be under a copyright in USA. Anyway, this needs a regular deletion request, not speedy deletion. Yann (talk) 18:34, 27 April 2025 (UTC)
Police automobiles in Belarus and Police vehicles of Belarus categories
In April 2024, there was an IP user who, without reason, depopulated the categories of Police automobiles in Belarus and Police vehicles of Belarus categories by transferring the files contained in these categories into Militsiya automobiles. This is notwithstanding with my act to revert that IP user's unexplained move. You then deleted these categories, apparently in accordance with COM:CSD#C2. An example can be seen here.
I believe these actions are uncontributive, Militsiya is used by several post-Soviet law enforcement agencies, so the category of "Militsiya automobiles" will consist of files of police automobiles from all over the post-Soviet realm, and country-based categorization would be more convenient (and indeed the primary category for most automobiles categories). Moreover, the two categories are not mutually exclusive, so I believe the deleted categories are far from unuseful.
I therefore request to re-create the deleted categories, repopulate the files, and take measures to prevent that IP user from depopulating and nominating the categories for deletion again. Thank you. 廣九直通車 (talk) 04:29, 28 April 2025 (UTC)
- @廣九直通車: Hi, The categories are not empty any more, so I undeleted them. Yann (talk) 07:08, 28 April 2025 (UTC)

Image deletion
Hi, you recently deleted my uploaded image per COM:WEBHOST, but I do not see how that is a violation because it’s just my personal photo for self identification, used only on my user page, and not a promotional content or advertisement of some sort. Kindly re-consider and revert. Best, King ChristLike (talk) 22:12, 28 April 2025 (UTC)
- No offense but your user page seriously comes off like self promotion. So I probably would have deleted the image to. --Adamant1 (talk) 22:17, 28 April 2025 (UTC)
- Yann: The global contribs show the dedication and contributions of this user and the file was used on user pages across multiple relevant wikis (meta origination). I can't see the image to evaluate it though.
- @Adamant1: A comment starting with "No offense" is bound to be offensive... Some Wikimedians choose to reveal some details about themselves on their user pages like the languages they speak, their interests, their connection to the wider world and a photo. They may even upload an ownwork to Commons. Others lurk in the shadows. I don't know of a place where editors suggest improvements on other's user pages (in a tactful way), but this isn't it the place (and it wasn't even remotely tactful). Commander Keane (talk) 01:23, 29 April 2025 (UTC)
- @Commander Keane: I don't have a problem with any of that in isolation. Any time someone has sentences like "Google Crowdsource Influencer, Disciple, Software developer and AI enthusiast exploring AI applications in healthcare promotion" on their user page and then links to their email and social media accounts, including LinkedIn, it reeks of self promotion. And what does their Instagram profile say "Public figure"? Yeah, that's totally not self promotion at all. I'm sure they just say their a "public figure...in healthcare promotion" who's a "Google Crowdsource Influencer" for nothing. --Adamant1 (talk) 03:33, 29 April 2025 (UTC)
- @King ChristLike, Adamant1, and Commander Keane: Seeing the number of contributions, I undeleted the file, and created a regular DR instead: Commons:Deletion requests/File:Portrait of ChristLike Chinonso Chidi.jpg. But Adamant1's comments are valid points. Yann (talk) 09:27, 29 April 2025 (UTC)
- @Adamant1, There’s really nothing promotional on my user page aside a short bio and my contributions to the Wikimedia movement. Unless you’re being biased (which I choose not to believe). Deleting my personal image doesn’t solve any problem here.
- @Yann Thumbs up for undeleting, but even the DR is needless. Rather, we should be more concerned about the vandalism and promotional materials on this project. King ChristLike (talk) 10:00, 29 April 2025 (UTC)
- Would you be willing to rephrase the paragraph on your user page to be neutral and delete the links to your social media accounts? There's plenty of people on here who do this as part of their profession but don't have user pages like yours or link to their social media. So neither one is particularly necessary. --Adamant1 (talk) 10:04, 29 April 2025 (UTC)
- @Adamant1 I wonder what you’re all about with this. Perhaps, you should take a look again at what a user page should contain here King ChristLike (talk) 14:47, 29 April 2025 (UTC)

File:Roman Doduik à CanneSeries.jpg
Bonjour @Yann,
Excusez-moi de vous déranger mais j'ai un doute sur la licence de cette photo File:Roman Doduik à CanneSeries.jpg. La personne qui l'a téléchargée l'a placée dans le domaine public mais je ne suis pas sur qu'il s'agisse de l'auteur. Et pourquoi la placer dans le domaine public si le nom du photographe (un photographe professionnel apparemment) est visible dessus ? C'est la photo de profil instagram de Roman Doduik donc beaucoup de gens peuvent l'avoir vue et téléchargée ici.
Que faut-il faire dans ce genre de cas ? An insect photographer (talk) 11:09, 29 April 2025 (UTC)
- OK, supprimée. Yann (talk) 11:27, 29 April 2025 (UTC)
