- Edit kind: attempt at adding SDC: source of file (P7482) = Flickr (Q103204); automated filter "has identified this edit as potentially unconstructive", even though it's a valid edit, as this file is in the category Flickr images missing SDC source of file

- Hi, and welcome. I am sorry to inform you that you have triggered Special:AbuseFilter/265 by three times trying to change a structured data file metadata source (P7482). Such edits by new and anonymous users are considered by Admins like GPSLeo to be probable vandalism and therefore disallowed. — 🇺🇦Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 10:18, 4 July 2024 (UTC)

Update Cross-wiki upload filter (# 153)
To implement Commons:Village_pump/Proposals#Deactivate_cross-wiki_uploads_for_new_users, I think the following would be needed:
- If not: !("confirmed" in user_groups | "autopatrol" in user_rights)
- display: MediaWiki:Abusefilter-warning-cwuploads updated to (or a new message at MediaWiki:Abusefilter-warning-cwuploads-nonew) with something like:
- As you haven't uploaded several files to Wikimedia Commons before, please use Special:UploadWizard. The Wizard will walk you through the process.
- If you consider uploading a company logo, please read our introduction about logos.

- This huge change needs to be announced to the other Wikis first. GPSLeo (talk) 17:00, 7 July 2024 (UTC)
- Ideally, it needs changes there too. Do you know which messages need to be updated there? Enhancing999 (talk) 17:02, 7 July 2024 (UTC)
- I think the m:Tech/News newsletter would be the best place to inform everyone. For the filter it would be better to just hide the cross-wiki upload feature for those who do not have the right to use it. GPSLeo (talk) 17:29, 7 July 2024 (UTC)
- Well, changes need to be done in the interface there too. At Wikipedia, it should be possible to limit the number users who see the feature, but can't use it, but it's not entirely possible to handle it on (say) enwiki, as enwiki doesn't know if the user has uploaded to Commons or not.

- Where was it announced that the feature would even be available? — 🇺🇦Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 00:47, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
- Also at the Technews m:Tech/News/2015/52. GPSLeo (talk) 14:19, 8 July 2024 (UTC)

- w:MediaWiki:Upload-form-label-not-own-work-message-commons could be changed to include a message: "Use UploadWizard, if you haven't uploaded several files to Commons before." Enhancing999 (talk) 18:41, 8 July 2024 (UTC)

- @Zarana Mehta (Architectural & Interior Designer ): Hi, and welcome. I am sorry to inform you that you have triggered Special:AbuseFilter/153 by trying to cross-wiki upload a smaller (<50,000 bytes or <2,000,000 pixels) jpg image as a new user. The image you tried to upload is smaller, and you indicated it's your own work. Usually when someone uploads a smaller image, it is a copyright violation taken from the web. If you made the image yourself, please upload the full-size original of it per COM:HR, including EXIF metadata. If you did not make the image, please see Commons:Licensing for why we can't accept it, and have the image photographer / designer license it on their official website or social media, or send the image and permission via VRT with a carbon copy to you. If you can't get a compliant license, the image may still be uploaded to English Wikipedia in compliance with en:WP:F because we don't allow Fair Use here. If you use our Upload Wizard instead, you should be able to avoid that filter. I am also sorry to inform you that you have triggered Special:AbuseFilter/245 by trying to edit a page in userspace that is not your account's (your spammy autobiography) without being autopatrolled. Why do you need multiple accounts? — 🇺🇦Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 01:05, 9 July 2024 (UTC)
