I originally made a report at Commons:Administrators'_noticeboard/User_problems#User:HarrisDerkins22 because it wasn't initially obviously vandalism, but this is becoming more and more blatant. I'd still like to see at least one other admin overtly agree that this should be treated as vandalism (or disagree with me, in which case I'll back off) rather than be left to act on my own. I was certainly unhappy with these as edits to photos I've uploaded, and reverted those, but a lot of other people's photos are clearly also affected. Jmabel ! talk 04:51, 23 November 2021 (UTC)

User:Cukrakalnis places the following files of the flags of the Kiev Voivodeship

in Category: Fictional flags of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania. At the same time, the description of the files contains a Polish historical heraldic source: Kasper Niesiecki Herbarz Polski. Tom 1, 1839.

Additionally, there is a separate file File:Herbarz Polski Kaspra Niesieckiego Tom 1 - Województwo kijowskie.png, where the description is given. The same description in the form of text in Polish:

Województwo Kijowskie, że się pomieścić może z starostwem swojem jużem namienił wyżej. Za herb nosi anioła bialego w czerwonem polu. Paproc. o herb. f.718. Gvagnin w Kronice Ruskiej fol. 24, powiada że chorągiew jego zielona o dwu rogach, w polu czerwonem, z jednej strony pogonią Litewską, z drugiej strony Niedźwiedziem czarnym, w polu białym naznaczona, atoli co się tycze pogoni pomylił się Gvagnin. Bielski fol. 9. krom anioła z jednej strony chorągwi, który w jednej ręce miecz goły, nadoł końcem spuszczony, w drugiej pochwy trzyma: na drugiej stronie, przywlaszcza mu Niedźwiedzia w bialem polu, u którego noga lewa przednia trochę do góry podniesiona.

My literary translation:

Kiev Voivodeship. Previously, a white angel in a red field was depicted on the coat of arms. Paprocki gives a description of Guagnini in the Chronicle... (A Description of Sarmatian Europe): the Voivodeship had a green banner with two horns. On one side of the banner, the Lithuanian coat of arms Pahonia is depicted in a red field (shield), on the other side, a black bear is depicted in a white field (shield). But Bielski believes that Guagnini was mistaken and says that on one side of the banner there was a punishing winged angel, with a drawn sword lowered down in one hand and holding a scabbard in the other hand. On the other side of the banner there was a Bear walking in a white field (shield) with his left front leg slightly raised.

Similar information in the source Geografia historyczna - Województwo Kijowskie.

Smaller territories also had similar flags (Powiat). Example: flag of Grodno powiat.

Please stop vandalism. --Лобачев Владимир (talk) 19:12, 24 November 2021 (UTC)

The issue here is that Лобачев Владимир invented flags. The description he gives does not match the flag. In the description, there is no mention of a various forms, e.g. yellow circle, with "Kijowska" in the center and there is no mention of Ioannes Casimirus, which is still shown on File:Flag of Kiev Voivodeship (1569-1793).svg. Лобачев Владимир created some flags with conjecture and added his own things, i.e. Wikipedia:WP:OR, and wants to label them as historical. The necessary disclaimers that they are fictional should be placed.--Cukrakalnis (talk) 19:21, 24 November 2021 (UTC)

In the above examples, we see that the name of the king on the banner, as well as the name of the horogvi by the name of the voivodeship or powiat, were common practice. --Лобачев Владимир (talk) 19:39, 24 November 2021 (UTC)

Лобачев Владимир takes two flags from the late-16th century (one of them refixed in the mid-18th century) and establishes a supposed trend on them. In addition, it is incorrect to establish such a trend when there was no known standardisation of flags. Лобачев Владимир proceeded to imaginatively use two different flags (with different shapes, forms, details, etc.) as a sort of template for other flags, without any basis in Wikipedia:WP:RS or elsewhere to ground them in reality. The flags Лобачев Владимир created are fictional by definition. If Лобачев Владимир had just made the flags File:Troki, Pahonia. Трокі, Пагоня (XVI).jpg and File:Słonim, Pahonia. Слонім, Пагоня (1747).jpg into SVG versions, then it would have been OK, no problem, because it would have a clear basis in reality. The flags of the Kiev Voivodeship, however, are not a comparable situation.--Cukrakalnis (talk) 19:46, 24 November 2021 (UTC)
Here is the banner of the military unit of the army of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, and another banner of the 17th century of the military unit of the army of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. --Лобачев Владимир (talk) 20:32, 24 November 2021 (UTC)

  • First of all, Wikimedia Commons has its own policies and guidelines, so the persistent referring the English Wikipedia ones by Cukrakalnis is irrelevant. The most relevant local policy is Commons:Project scope/Neutral point of view, that states: It is not the role of Commons to adjudicate on subject-matter disputes nor to force local projects to use one version of a file in preference to another. Provided that a file falls within Commons scope, and can be legally hosted, we make it available. Whether and under what conditions it is actually used is a matter for the local communities of the individual projects to decide. Moreover, user Cukrakalnis is known as a disruptive one, who obviously doesn't understand Commons:Project scope. This user usually STARTS and fights many edit wars mostly with removing the categories connected to Belarus and Belarusians (denying history of Belarusians), that is a clear manifestation of chauvinistic national discriminations of Belarusians. If this project still has any real administrators (not just "file removers"), they should stop persistent attempts by this user of disrupting the users, who really contributes to the project understanding the aim of Wikimedia Commons.
The "banner of the military unit of the army of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth" is a false statement because the page has no such caption. Лобачев Владимир linked to a random petition that translates to "Dismissal of Właszczykowski as the head of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs for treason of Poland". Using such a thing as this is baseless. As for and the "banner of the 17th century of the military unit of the army of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth", that is also an incorrect statement, and the Facebook post itself says that it is a Каралеўская харугва, i.e. a Royal Banner, which is not a military unit flag like Лобачев Владимир says it is. Лобачев Владимир's flags are mostly based on conjecture and should be labelled as fictional and not historical.
My actions concerning Belarus is just removing categories that do not belong there. That is not a denial of history. To prove that this is not out of the ordinary, no one places Category:History of Poland into Category:German Empire or Category:Russian Empire, regardless of the territorial overlap and other things. It's not "chauvinistic national discriminations of Belarusians" when improperly-placed categories are removed/deleted, like Category:Coats of arms of Belarus in the Imperial Russian Army. Belarus did not even exist at the time, so how can there be a coat of arms of a state that did not exist, even as an idea? A parallel would be to have a Category:Coats of arms of Singapore in the British army in e.g. 19th century, even if the Coat of arms of Singapore only appeared in the 20th century. Belarus as a country only appeared in 1918, as multiple sources will tell you, including Encyclopedia Britannica. It is nonsense to claim that such an esteemed source would be chauvinistic. So, the problem is not a denial of history on my part, but the misplacement of many categories on the part of others. In fact, removing categories that do not belong in certain places is precisely educational.
My actions do not contradict Commons:Project scope/Neutral point of view, because I am not deleting the files. I am moving them to the appropriate category, i.e. fictional, instead of historical, in this case. In other cases, I move other files to other categories. Commons depends on accurate categorization to be useful. Looking at Commons:Project scope, it is actually my actions that are educational because placing ahistorical flags as historical is precisely counter-educational. Moreover, Kazimier Lachnovič is making absurd claims of me being "disruptive", despite the fact the vast majority of my actions are beneficial and many are concerned with off-loading overburdened categories. Just in the past few days I have categorized several hundreds of files from Category:Vinkhuijzen: Military uniforms of Germany into various new categories I created: Category:Vinkhuijzen: Military uniforms of Germany, Anhalt, Category:Vinkhuijzen: Military uniforms of Germany, Baden, Category:Vinkhuijzen: Military uniforms of Germany, Nassau, Category:Vinkhuijzen: Military uniforms of Germany, Nürnberg, Category:Vinkhuijzen: Military uniforms of Germany, Westphalia, Category:Vinkhuijzen: Military uniforms of Germany, Reuss, Category:Vinkhuijzen: Military uniforms of Germany, Saxe-Meiningen, Category:Vinkhuijzen: Military uniforms of Germany, Saxe-Weimar-Eisenach, in addition to putting many files into the already existing categories. In fact, Wikimedia Commons should stop the persistent attempts of Kazimier Lachnovič against effective and accurate categorization.--Cukrakalnis (talk) 09:48, 25 November 2021 (UTC)

I don't see any use for protecting "my" talk page as hes'#s not that frequent and if he can't vandalise here he'll go to another wiki where I don't have Rollback privileges so it would (ironically) cost me more to undo their edits, plus if an IP editor would want to message me I don't feel like they should be filtered out because of one (1) annoying bad actor. This section is resolved and generally they hop IP ranges so I don't suspect a block to be effective.

Strange argument: "because it is already included with Category: Historical military flags of Belarus)". --Лобачев Владимир (talk) 11:04, 30 November 2021 (UTC)

I added Category:Historical military flags of Belarus to the file in this edit. This category has the following categories: Category:Historical flags of Belarus, Category:Military flags of Belarus, Category:Pahonia on flags. It is normal Wikimedia Commons practice to seek to better categorize things. Following Commons rules is not vandalism. The real vandal is Лобачев Владимир, because he considers actions guided by rules as vandalism and constantly goes against those same rules, especially the ones regarding over-categorization.--Cukrakalnis (talk) 12:05, 30 November 2021 (UTC)
No. It's just another prove that user Cukrakalnis is persistently denying the history of Belarusians based on the stereotypic and not specialized source this user likes and ignoring specialized sources this user doesn't like. --Kazimier Lachnovič (talk) 15:11, 30 November 2021 (UTC)
This statement by Kazimier Lachnovič is a clear indication that this person does not understand Wikimedia policy. Kazimier Lachnovič thinks that following the official policy on Wikimedia Commons about Over-categorization is somehow "denial of Belarusian history". Will someone please explain it to him that official policy is supposed to be followed? He clearly does not understand it.--Cukrakalnis (talk) 19:44, 30 November 2021 (UTC)
No. I just reasonably connect your previous edit warring to deny the history of Belarusians with this case as well as with the evidence that you are trying to distract the users from normal work in here. --Kazimier Lachnovič (talk) 22:07, 30 November 2021 (UTC)
There was an issue with Over-categorization on the file that this section concerns. Kazimier Lachnovič's statement just goes to show that his goal is to "protect the history of Belarusians", even when no one is threatening it. Kazimier Lachnovič considers my actions, which were fully in line with the official policy of Wikimedia Commons, as "discrimination", "chauvinism" and something that is not "normal work". A clear indication to anyone with a thinking brain that Kazimier Lachnovič is ideologically motivated and is especially not to be trusted in matters concerning history.--Cukrakalnis (talk) 22:25, 30 November 2021 (UTC)

User removes Category:SVG historical flags of Belarus, which combines vector versions of flags: 01; 02; 03; 04; 05 ; 06. --Лобачев Владимир (talk) 16:59, 26 November 2021 (UTC)

Лобачев Владимир is misportraying the situation, because the Category:SVG historical flags of Belarus is for flags of Belarus, which necessarily must be after 1918, when Belarus first appeared as a state (according to Encyclopedia Britannica, if anyone doubts what I am saying). Definitely not anything earlier than that, especially not from other countries. This is not vandalism. This is ensuring that Wikimedia Commons is educational instead of counter-educational. Actually, Лобачев Владимир is the real vandal here, by adding categories where they don't belong, e.g. 1 (adding the category of "SVG historical flags of Belarus" to Samogitia, a region in Lithuania), 2 (same as previous one) ,3 (adding the category of "SVG historical flags of Belarus" to Kyiv, a place in Ukraine, among other inaccurate uses of other categories.--Cukrakalnis (talk) 19:39, 26 November 2021 (UTC)
Kazimier Lachnovič deems reliable information from Wikipedia:Encyclopædia Britannica to be "denying the history of Belarusians", "nationalistic chauvinism" and "national decriminations of Belarusians". Here is the link to Encyclopædia Britannica and the relevant quote is "While Belarusians share a distinct ethnic identity and language, they never previously enjoyed unity and political sovereignty, except during a brief period in 1918." The previously refers to previously to the 1990s. Where is the discrimination in following historical facts? The issue here is that Kazimier Lachnovič considers historical facts as discrimination where there is none.--Cukrakalnis (talk) 22:59, 27 November 2021 (UTC)
Another example of ignoring by Cukrakalnis the reliable sources he doesn't like. I've already provided this information here, but the user pretends not to notice the quoted reliable sources. So I need to quote these sources in here as well. Andrew Wilson, a British historian specializing in Eastern Europe, writes in his book Belarus: The Last European Dictatorship (Yale University Press, 2012): The entity referred to as medieval ‘Lithuania’ in fact had the full name of ‘Grand Duchy of Lithuania, Rus and Samogitia’. Its short name was ‘Litva’. This is not the same thing as ‘Lithuania’. In the modern Lithuanian language, the word for ‘Lithuania’ is Lietuva (p. 21—22). <...> Most of what is now Belarus was part of ‘Litva’ proper. (p. 33). Moreover, another historian specializing in the history of Central and Eastern Europe Dr. Prof. Timothy D. Snyder writes in his book The Reconstruction of Nations: Poland, Ukraine, Lithuania, Belarus, 1569-1999 (Yale University Press, 2003): During the period of dynastic union with Poland, Lithuania became an East Slavic realm in which the gentry enjoyed rights relative to the sovereign (p. 22). Before 1863, the most common self-appellation of the largest group in Russia’s Northwest Territory — Belarusian-speaking peasants — was apparently “Lithuanian” (p. 49). By removing the historical sense of the term “Lithuanian” in the popular mind, Russian power cleared the way for a modern, ethnic definition of Lithuania, and simplified the task of Lithuanian activists (p. 50). <...> The conflation of an old politonym with a new ethnonym (“Lithuania”) prevented non-Belarusians from seeing the connection between modern Belarus and the early modern Grand Duchy of Lithuania (p. 81) <...> As we have seen, the traditions of the Grand Duchy were altered beyond recognition by Lithuanian and Polish national movements, as well as Russian imperial and Soviet states. They have changed least perhaps in the lands we now call Belarus (p. 281). And I'm not talking about denying by the user the works of Belarusian historians (like "The History of the Belarusan Nation and State", published in English outside Belarus in 2005), which is a another clear prove of the nationalistic chauvinism expressed in denying the history of Belarusians, the people of Belarus. --Kazimier Lachnovič (talk) 22:02, 29 November 2021 (UTC)
Kazimier Lachnovič accuses others of what he himself is guilty. He ignores everything, including reliable sources, that go against his preconceived notion of history, but pretends that he is not doing it and that others actually are. His view of history is obviously distorted, because he just copy-pastes the same thing over and over again, without taking into account anything contrary to it, and continues calling historical truth as "nationalistic chauvinism".--Cukrakalnis (talk) 12:43, 30 November 2021 (UTC)
The evidence suggests that I'm not the one who denies the history of some nation by removing the categories connected to this nation by means of edit warring in order to push this obviously chauvinistic national discriminations. So it's really clear who is disruptive here in order to distract the normal users from their constructive work in this project. --Kazimier Lachnovič (talk) 15:28, 30 November 2021 (UTC)
I am not denying the history of any nations. On the contrary, the accuser, Kazimier Lachnovič, himself illegitimately claims and appropriates more history for some nations than they actually have. It can't be "obviously chauvinistic national discriminations" to ensure that accurate categorization is applied. To put this all in perspective, it is not "chauvinistic national discriminations" to remove e.g. Category:France from Category:History of Germany, Category:Russia from Category:History of Ukraine or Category:Belarus from Category:History of Lithuania. My actions are according to the rules, scope and goals of Wikimedia Commons, so Kazimier Lachnovič's statements are nonsense. His portraying me not as a "normal user" is absolute insanity: to shatter his LIES, all one needs to do is look at my contributions, which are very clearly beneficial, especially in off-loading overwhelmed categories, like Category:Vinkhuijzen: Military uniforms of Germany. Just for that category, I created many categories. In fact, of the 25 categories under Category:Vinkhuijzen: Military uniforms of Germany, I created the following: Category:Vinkhuijzen: Military uniforms of Germany (1871-1909), Category:Vinkhuijzen: Military uniforms of Germany, Anhalt, Category:Vinkhuijzen: Military uniforms of Germany, Baden, Category:Vinkhuijzen: Military uniforms of Germany, Berg, Category:Vinkhuijzen: Military uniforms of Germany, Brunswick, Category:Vinkhuijzen: Military uniforms of Germany, Danzig, Category:Vinkhuijzen: Military uniforms of Germany, Franconian Circle. Category:Vinkhuijzen: Military uniforms of Germany, Frankfurt, Category:Vinkhuijzen: Military uniforms of Germany, Hanover, Category:Vinkhuijzen: Military uniforms of Germany, Nassau, Category:Vinkhuijzen: Military uniforms of Germany, Nürnberg, Category:Vinkhuijzen: Military uniforms of Germany, Oldenburg, Category:Vinkhuijzen: Military uniforms of Germany, Reuss, Category:Vinkhuijzen: Military uniforms of Germany, Saxe-Meiningen, Category:Vinkhuijzen: Military uniforms of Germany, Saxe-Weimar-Eisenach, Category:Vinkhuijzen: Military uniforms of Germany, Westphalia, Category:Vinkhuijzen: Military uniforms of Germany, Würzburg were ALL created by me in just the past week. I created a total of 17 categories for better categorization of what once included thousands of files just placed in a huge mix. To portray me as a not normal user like Kazimier Lachnovič is doing, is a straight-out lie. Kazimier Lachnovič's statements, which clearly go against the policy of Wikimedia Commons, should be punished.--Cukrakalnis (talk) 19:35, 30 November 2021 (UTC)
Totally irrelevant to the situation and clearly absurd example («to remove e.g. Category:France from Category:History of Germany, Category:Russia from Category:History of Ukraine or Category:Belarus from Category:History of Lithuania») is another sound evidence that user Cukrakalnis is just trying to disrupt the normal project functionality. --Kazimier Lachnovič (talk) 22:01, 30 November 2021 (UTC)
Kazimier Lachnovič clearly did not understand that removing claims of a certain country to another country's history is not chauvinistic. It is precisely the reverse, it is anti-chauvinistic. That is precisely how the project normally should function and Kazimier Lachnovič's claim that this is somehow evidence of disruption just goes to show that Kazimier Lachnovič is himself a disruptive user. When given SOLID EVIDENCE that I am a BENEFICIAL CONTRIBUTOR to the project, Kazimier Lachnovič just dismisses it as irrelevant. He is clearly not acting in good faith.--Cukrakalnis (talk) 22:15, 30 November 2021 (UTC)
Beside total misunderstanding of what chauvinism is, the user just revealed their motivation here: «removing claims of a certain country to another country's history is not chauvinistic. It is precisely the reverse, it is anti-chauvinistic». It actually is aggressive removing any connection of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania to Belarusians, despite many reliable sources (not only Belarusian, but also not anyhow connected to Belarus and Belarusians) confirming such a connection. To prove that the user is well informed about such recognized connection, I quote en:Alfredas Bumblauskas, ″one of the best known Lithuanian historians″ (English Wikipedia): Norwegian linguist Christian Schweigaard Stang determined that at first Vytautas’ office was dominated by Ukrainian language (Volhynia), which later switched to Belarusian (Novogrudok, Polock, Grodno). In a way, we offended Belarus by forgetting that there is no single sentence in Lithuanian in the Lithuanian Metrica. We called the language Chancery Slavonic (of GDL Slavs) – a term panned by Professor Gudavičius, as the language was used not only in GDL, but in Poland, as well; and, as Poles are Slavic, the definition becomes incorrect. The language was not used only in office, but in poetry, as well. However, the attitude of Lithuanians is slowly changing. At first everyone was outraged that Belarusians are stealing our history. I say, however, that they have been part of our history for a long time. <...> The present-day events in Belarus seem to allow us a more peaceful look to our common history and show kindness in sharing it». --Kazimier Lachnovič (talk) 22:08, 2 December 2021 (UTC)
Kazimier Lachnovič's "response" (not really a response, because he ignored most of what was said by me in the previous message then he went on some irrelevant tangent) demonstrates this user's incompetency and limited, cherry-picked understanding of history. He will not admit that he is wrong or that it is somehow against behaviour guidelines on Wikimedia Commons to denigrate another user and his contributions to the project. And the motivation Kazimier Lachnovič revealed is absolutely in-line with Wikimedia Commons' scope, which is to be educational, instead of engaging in pseudo-historical lies of Litvinism or any other ideology, which are inherently counter-educational. The motivation of removing claims of a certain country to another country's history is absolutely justified, and even commendable. In fact, such actions are necessary to ensure that the project of Wikimedia Commons stays true to its educational goals.--Cukrakalnis (talk) 21:49, 3 December 2021 (UTC)

Removing a counter-educational and ahistorical category. The user independently decided that Category:Historical military flags of Belarus is anti-historical, and he decides for himself what can be included in it and what not. Please return the category and remind the participant that personal preferences in the project are not desirable. --Лобачев Владимир (talk) 11:25, 30 November 2021 (UTC)

Ensuring that historical facts are taken into account is portrayed by Лобачев Владимир as "personal preferences". That Medieval flag, File:Grunwald Pogoń czerwona.svg, cannot be a flag of Belarus, because, as Wikipedia:Encyclopædia Britannica and many other sources state: Belarus as a state appeared only in 1918. There can't be a flag of something that did not exist at the time. If anyone doubts this basic historical knowledge, here you go: link to Encyclopædia Britannica: While Belarusians share a distinct ethnic identity and language, they never previously enjoyed unity and political sovereignty, except during a brief period in 1918. (previously to 1991), link to Encyclopedia of Nationalism (2nd volume), with the relevant quote on page 45: The only real national statehood that could pass for being Belarusian in letter and in spirit was the Belarusian National Republic (BNR), declared in Minsk on March 25, 1918 . In contrast to how Лобачев Владимир is portraying the situation, the reality is that he is himself guided by personal preferences, as he creates fictional flags with elements deriving from his fantasy, and attempts to label them as "historical", e.g. File:Flag of Duchy of Samogitia (1419-1795).svg. With this flag, Лобачев Владимир takes an element of truth, which is indeed based on sources (e.g. that the flag's main colour was indeed recorded in sources as white), but then he adds "Ioannes Casimirus", "Zmudzka" and a bizarre, rectangular pattern surrounding the centre of the flag, none of which are based on anything, except on Лобачев Владимир's fantasy and conjecture. Labelling such creations as "historical" is against Commons' goal of being educational.--Cukrakalnis (talk) 12:36, 30 November 2021 (UTC)
  • The Grand Duchy of Lithuania is the part of history of Belarus, as well as the history of the Republic of Lithuania (which own name is Lietuva). The Grand Duchy of Lithuania and the Republic of Lithuania are not the same (according to the reliable sources I have provided here, i.e. Prof. Snyder, Dr. Wilson, many Belarusian historians). So either both categories must be removed or both must be present. --Kazimier Lachnovič (talk) 15:21, 30 November 2021 (UTC)
Kazimier Lachnovič does not understand how categorization works on Wikimedia Commons. The Russian Empire is part of the history of Lithuania, as well as Belarus, Ukraine, and Finland, among others. EVEN THEN, in Category:Russian Empire, there is ONLY Category:History of Russia and not Category:History of Lithuania, Category:History of Belarus, Category:History of Ukraine, Category:History of Finland. And that is how it is supposed to be. Another example is Category:Kingdom of Hungary, which has only Category:Political history of Hungary from among such history categories. This is in spite of the Kingdom of Hungary including parts or the entirety of modern Slovakia, Romania, Serbia, Croatia. None of them placed Category:History of ... on Category:Kingdom of Hungary. Ergo, it is only logical that a similar situation should apply to Category:Grand Duchy of Lithuania, so that it has ONLY Category:History of Lithuania. As for the other part, of course, the Grand Duchy of Lithuania and the Republic of Lithuania are not the same, just like the Russian Empire is not the same as the Federation of Russia, and the Kingdom of France is not the French Republic or the Belarusian National Republic is not the Republic of Belarus. That is beside the point.--Cukrakalnis (talk) 20:26, 30 November 2021 (UTC)
  • If you follow your logic, then the Middle Ages history of Polotsk, Vitebsk, Minsk, Novogrudok, all cities and territories of Belarus belongs to the Republic of Lithuania, but does not belong to the Belarusian Republic. This is very similar to the ideology of Lithuanian chauvinism. --Лобачев Владимир (talk) 21:11, 30 November 2021 (UTC)
The logic I explained is only applicable at the level of states. At the level of cities and towns, the categories that should be used are different. For example, Category:Bratislava was part of the Category:Kingdom of Hungary from the 10th century to 1918. But even then, there is no Category:History of Hungary. The same goes for Belarus, e.g. Category:Minsk was part of the Category:Grand Duchy of Lithuania from 13th century to 1795, but that does not mean that the category will have Category:History of Lithuania. Both Лобачев Владимир and Kazimier Lachnovič are obsessed with calling on Lithuanian chauvinism, while all I am doing is just following Wikimedia Commons policy.--Cukrakalnis (talk) 22:51, 30 November 2021 (UTC)
  • There are no reliable sources that Russian Empire was anyhow Belarusian state, but there are quite enough such sources that the Grand Duchy of Lithuanian was more Belarusian then Lithuanian (in modern sense with the own name lt:Lietuviai) state. So like I said based on provided sources either both categories (History of Belarus and History of Lithuania) must be removed or both must be present. --Kazimier Lachnovič (talk) 22:13, 30 November 2021 (UTC)
Kazimier Lachnovič's statements are indicative of the fringe pseudohistorical theory of Litvinism. The Grand Duchy of Lithuania is regularly called the "medieval Lithuanian state": 1, 2, 3 or even as Lithuanian empire - as is here. Clearly, if the Belarusian element had been so dominant, then the state would not be called Lithuanian so often. Kazimier Lachnovič's statement that there are sources proving that the Grand Duchy of Lithuania was more Belarusian than Lithuanian is nonsense, for many reasons (this list is non-exhaustive): the country itself was founded on Lithuania proper by ethnic Lithuanians, the Grand Duchy's official religion was Catholic (not Orthodox) after the pagan Lithuanians (the founders of the state according to Encyclopedia Britannica) were baptised into the Catholic faith, the rulers were Lithuanian-speaking (as is clearly made here with many sources), the dominant nobility was the Catholic (Lithuanian) one, as it had privileges not given to the Slavic nobility and many other arguments refuting Kazimier Lachnovič's distortion of history.--Cukrakalnis (talk) 23:49, 30 November 2021 (UTC)
This is all your personal opinion. But there are no sources that directly state that the rights to the historical heritage of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania are exclusively owned by the Republic of Lithuania. --Лобачев Владимир (talk) 10:55, 1 December 2021 (UTC)
Without providing reliable sources (like I told you before, reference to any English Wikipedia article is just a poor attempt to disrupt the discussion because according to the rules of that project en:Wikipedia:Wikipedia is not a reliable source), that criticize the reliable sources provided by me, your references could be a prove just for the opinion that the Grand Duchy of Lithuania was Lithuanian state AS WELL. It means that both categories must be present, removing one of them is clear push of nationalistic (actually chauvinistic) POV, which should be stopped. --Kazimier Lachnovič (talk) 21:50, 2 December 2021 (UTC)
Stating historical facts is not a personal opinion. As for 'reference to any ... Wikipedia article is just a poor attempt to disrupt the discussion', Kazimier Lachnovič referenced a Wikipedia article with "lt:Lietuviai" in a previous message. Kazimier Lachnovič is a hypocrite. Moreover, Kazimier Lachnovič's conclusion that "both categories must be present" is a total obfuscation and misportrayal of the actual situation. As I explained in a previous section, it is clear that Kazimier Lachnovič is ideologically motivated as he refuses to remove a category because that is "denial of Belarusian history" (according to him), even if that category should be removed to curb overcategorization.--Cukrakalnis (talk) 22:01, 3 December 2021 (UTC)
  •  Comment So the user just admitted that they don't have reliable sources, that are critical to the reliable sources provided by me. This is clear and direct recognition of nationalistic (more precise chauvinistic) POV pushing. --Kazimier Lachnovič (talk) 16:27, 5 December 2021 (UTC)
Kazimier Lachnovič is once more making conclusions based on nothing while repeatedly refusing to acknowledge that he is a hypocrite and ideologically motivated, if anyone even pays attention to all of this.

Notice the editing of Vietnamese flags with odd categorisation, completely re-inventing categories, uploading a Vietnamese provincial emblem, tagging public domain images as "Own work", and the general pages they edit.

He then proceeds with a rant calling me stupid and noticebly referring to Vietnamese as "Duck 🦆 language" (a staple of Musée Annam rants), please don't censor his rant as I prefer to keep a public record of such events, just that this is a very typical Musée Annam rant. Though the longer he's unblocked the more damage he does to categories. Again, please don't mass-delete their edits, I will take the time to review the good ones from the bad ones.

Kind of find it odd that a globally locked sockmaster known for threatening users gets a 1 (one) week block for death threats while users "Rodhullandemu" and "Jdx" get banned for life, well, c'est la vie, I guess. Anyhow, the main type of abuse this Musée Annam sock does is in categorisation (which I would argue are more damaging than some death threats that only arouse laughter from its target, LOL) as they seem to have invented a number of non-sensical forms of categorisations like the "Culture of the South China Sea" and adding the "No-U Movement" (which is a legitimate movement) to encompass all opposition towards both the Vietnamese Communist Party (VCP) and Chinese expansionalism on perceived Vietnamese territories. Musée Annam often has these own "invented definitions" of terms which judging from my experience in volunteering with vulnerable individuals makes me think that he suffers from either a form of Autism or Obsessive Compulsive Personality Disorder especially in light of them maliciously socking for over a decade (but then again, I am not a psychologist and these are just observations of similarities in behaviour with these mental and developmental disorders, I do not mean to insult them only try to understand why they act so idiosyncratic and easily to identify), I don't want to call the users that usually hunt this sockmaster because they're all deletionists and would also undo his good edits, which I believe would be detrimental to undo, but my main reason for reporting him is because I believe that the negatives of his edits with this account outweigh his positive edits, such as replacing free images with copyrighted ones (a staple Musée Annam behaviour) and mislicensing files. Anyhow, this user is a Human Rights Activist (like the Nipponese Dog Calvero family of socks) so I would say that there is a certain sense of nobility in his edits and if he lashes out against me I do not hold it against him as he is frustrated with a misanthropic system he wishes to overthrow, but still, this doesn't justify inventing bullshit things like a supposed "South China Sea culture" that somehow includes Hong Kong, Viet-Nam, and a vague definition of other places based on nothing other than his fantasy, that simply doesn't have a place on the Wikimedia Commons. --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 09:08, 7 December 2021 (UTC)
  •  Comment, I've undone most of the stuff I can immediately identify as bad edits, I am not opposed to Musée Annam being a regular contributor to this website as I think that they have a lot of valuable uploads to add to this website, I have checked most of their categories and 95% (ninety-five percent) of their page creations appear to be good page creations and useful, I have nominated the bad categories for discussion so please do not nuke his edits.

Reason for reporting: Removing Category:History of Belarus in Category:Grand Duchy of Lithuania, the reliable sources provided on the talk page are ignored by the user

Kazimier Lachnovič (talk) 21:14, 6 December 2021 (UTC)

Yet again Kazimier Lachnovič demonstrates a lack of understanding of how categorization works on Wikimedia Commons. For clearly ideological reasons, Kazimier Lachnovič considers removing over-categorization as "denial of Belarusian history" and "distracting users from normal work". As I stated in an edit that explained my revert, Kingdom of Hungary is part of Slovakian history, but the Category:Kingdom of Hungary does not have Category:History of Slovakia, but has Category:Political history of Hungary. Following the example of a non-contentious case, there should be Category:History of Lithuania for Category:Grand Duchy of Lithuania, like that would be the case already if not for ideologically-motivated Belarusian nationalists. Kazimier Lachnovič's actions are directly inspired by a Belarusian nationalistic view of history, as many sources which I provided on the talk page with this edit will attest.--Cukrakalnis (talk) 21:27, 6 December 2021 (UTC)
The Grand Duchy of Lithuania is regularly called the "medieval Lithuanian state": 1, 2, 3 or even as Lithuanian empire - as is here. Kazimier Lachnovič's statement that the Grand Duchy of Lithuania was a Belarusian state is a clearly Belarusian nationalist and Litvinist statement, and he is simply misportraying a loud minority as a majority. The very fact that the Grand Duchy of Lithuania is called of Lithuania is by itself sufficient to compare it to the Kingdom of Hungary which is called of Hungary, or the Kingdom of France which is called of France. No amount of distortions or twisting of historical reality can change that.--Cukrakalnis (talk) 22:03, 6 December 2021 (UTC)
Quoting "medieval Lithuanian state" means nothing. According to the several specialized reliable sources (Dr. Prof. Timothy D. Snyder, Dr. Andrew Wilson, Dr. Jan Zaprudnik, Dr. Prof. Norman Davies) the historical meaning of term Lithuania (Lithuanian) differs significantly from the modern one. According to these specialized reliable sources the own name of the GDL was Litva (Belarusian Літва = Litva), while the own name of modern Lithuania is Lietuva. User Cukrakalnis didn't provide any reliable source criticizing these sources. --Kazimier Lachnovič (talk) 22:17, 6 December 2021 (UTC)
Quoting "medieval Lithuanian state" does mean something, just like "medieval French state" or "medieval Spanish state" has a meaning. Litva itself is a derivative of the original Lietuva, as the many sources collected on this website will clearly demonstrate, so your argument means nothing.--Cukrakalnis (talk) 22:24, 6 December 2021 (UTC)
The difference is that there are no specialized reliable sources that states that historical meaning of term French or Spanish differs significantly from the modern ones. So the comparison is clearly irrelevant. And the reference to self-published nationalistic website is another prove of disruptiveness. --Kazimier Lachnovič (talk) 22:29, 6 December 2021 (UTC)
Dismissing the linked page as nationalistic is a clear indication that Kazimier Lachnovič is completely entranced in his highly nationalist view - the linked page just provided clear primary sources that Lithuania's original name is Lietuva instead of Litva, unless Kazimier Lachnovič wants to call 13th-century German chroniclers like Peter of Dusburg, 17th-century official decrees from the state in question, i.e. Grand Duchy of Lithuania, and 19th-century Polish and German scholars as "Lithuanian nationalist". This by itself should indicate how disoriented Kazimier Lachnovič's thinking is.--Cukrakalnis (talk) 22:39, 6 December 2021 (UTC)
A reasonable administrator, upon closer inspection of the link I gave, would only agree with me. There is no nationalist narrative on the page, only a large variety of primary sources that absolutely demolishes Kazimier Lachnovič's fantasy that Lietuva as a name was not used to describe the Grand Duchy of Lithuania itself. The disruptiveness is on the part of Kazimier Lachnovič, who fails to acknowledge anything that he dislikes. He has not acknowledged that he was wrong with regards to over-categorization and in calling me a disruptive user, even if I contribute significantly to off-loading categories and helping better categorize the material. I will reiterate that Kazimier Lachnovič considers fixing over-categorization as "denial of Belarusian history". It is clear that he is ideologically driven and goes against Wikimedia policies.--Cukrakalnis (talk) 23:07, 6 December 2021 (UTC)
  •  Comment So instead of following contemporary specialized reliable sources (like «For this reason many historians argue that the medieval Grand Duchy of Lithuania was the first Belarusian nation state» in Ethnic Groups of Europe: An Encyclopedia, ABC-Clio 2011 by American anthropologist Dr. Prof. Jeffrey Cole, who is an expert on race and ethnicity in Europe, and Dr. Prof. Stephan E. Nikolov, a Senior Fellow researcher at the Bulgarian Academy of Science, Institute of Sociology and Associated Professor at the Neofit Rilski Southwestern University Blagoevgrad) the user suggests to do original research by reading «large variety of primary sources». Is the link to «primary sources» on some self-published website a justification for edit warring in order to deny the history of one nation by aggressive removing the category?! --Kazimier Lachnovič (talk) 21:38, 7 December 2021 (UTC)
    The way that Kazimier Lachnovič uses sources is indicative of his tendency to twist history. A precise example is the quote and source he emphasises. The article was not written by the American anthropologist Dr. Prof. Jeffrey Cole, but only by Stephan E. Nikolov. Such basic misattribution is indicative of the low level of Kazimier Lachnovič’s grasp of the topic at hand and sources about it. Then, he leaves out an important element from the source, which is that “The Ruthenian language, which later evolved into modern Belarusian, was the official language there.” Language itself is not a sufficient basis to claim a country, because some languages were used as lingua franca, and so to claim that the 18th-century Kingdom of Prussia was somehow a French state because it used French in its official proceedings is nonsense. It should be clear to all that the use of a certain language does not immediately mean the country belongs to those that write that language. Later on, the article itself states “In the 14th century, while being incorporated to Lithuania, Belarusians never lost their national identity.” This is a major statement that CONTRADICTS Kazimier Lachnovič’s whole argument. How can a country be incorporated to something which it supposedly already is? It can’t, and ergo the Grand Duchy of Lithuania was NOT Belarus. How can a national identity be lost in a state that is supposedly your own? This source clearly implies that the Grand Duchy of Lithuana was not a Belarusian state, and the centre of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania were always the ethnic Lithuanians, which still exist now, while the Belarusians were part of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania, but never were the Lithuanians.The sources that Kazimier Lachnovič uses contradict him. Cukrakalnis (talk) 19:29, 11 December 2021 (UTC)
Grand Duchy of Lithuania 1462 within modern boundaries
  • The user just trying to mess the discussion. The article by Dr. Stephan E. Nikolov is published in the Encyclopedia “Ethnic Groups of Europe”, which is edited by the American anthropologist Dr. Prof. Jeffrey Coleю. So there is no any misattribution. And the article clearly states that «For this reason many historians argue that the medieval Grand Duchy of Lithuania was the first Belarusian nation state», which considering the other sources is quite enough to stop the disruptive user of their aggressive nationalistic (chauvinistic) POV pushing. --Kazimier Lachnovič (talk) 20:46, 11 December 2021 (UTC)
The misattribution was in not clearly stating that Dr. Prof. Jeffrey Cole was the editor overall of the Encyclopedia. The way Kazimier Lachnovič wrote made it seem that the American Professor was the actual writer of the article, as Kazimier Lachnovič did not clearly state any distinction between editors and authors. Moreover, Kazimier Lachnovič fails to understand the context in which that sentence is written and flat out denies the rest of the source he is supposedly referencing (more like twisting it in directions he prefers, taking out only one sentence and leaving all others). It is clear that he denies the rest of the source, just see my message on 19:29, 11 December. The Encyclopedia itself does not state that the Grand Duchy of Lithuania was actually a Belarusian state (which is patently false), it only points out that there is such a view. And that the view is based on “The Ruthenian language, which later evolved into modern Belarusian, was the official language there.” To claim an entire state as being a country of that written language is not strong, because the same logic is never applied elsewhere. The medieval Western European states used a lot of Latin in their documents, are they suddenly Latin states? Of course not. Moreover, Kazimier Lachnovič ignores everything presented to him and instead accuses others of "aggressive nationalistic (chauvinistic) POV pushing". Such behaviour clearly contradicts Wikimedia Commons policy and it is problematic that Kazimier Lachnovič is allowed to rampage with his toxic ideological behaviour.--Cukrakalnis (talk) 21:04, 11 December 2021 (UTC)

The Grand Duchy of Lithuania was liquidated in 1792-1795 and became part of the Russian Empire. The Russian emperor was called the Grand Duke of Lithuania. After the revolution of 1917, the Republic of Lithuania was formed on a part of the empire (without the Vilnius region). Thus, the modern Republic of Lithuania is not a continuation of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania. And the modern Republic of Lithuania appeared after the collapse of the Soviet Union. Historically, the Grand Duchy of Lithuania, with the official Old Belarusian language, was located on the territories of modern states: Poland, Lithuania, Belarus, Russia, Moldavi. Why the right to the historical heritage should belong exclusively to the Republic of Lithuania is not clear. Formally, the Russian Federation is the legal successor of the Soviet Union and the Russian Empire. It is she who can lay claim to the historical heritage. But the Republic of Lithuania does not have any internationally recognized documents on the rights of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania. --Лобачев Владимир (talk) 10:19, 8 December 2021 (UTC)

The Tsar of Russia was titled the King of Poland. Does that mean that all of Polish history is suddenly Russian? Of course not, so the same applies to Lithuanian history. Does anyone internationally consider Russia as the successor state of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania? No. In mainstream reliable sources, the continuity between of Lithuania, first as the Grand Duchy of Lithuania (13th century-1795) and then as the Republic of Lithuania (1918-1940; 1990-) is affirmed by numerous statements like "When the independent Lithuanian state was reestablished in 1918" in The SAGE International Encyclopedia of Mass Media and Society (2019) (unknown page because of copyright), Editor: Professor, PhD Debra L. Merskin (not specialized in history, but still goes to show the prevalence of the statement), "the reinstating of Lithuania's independence in 1918" p360, sub-chapter 7.1 The Historical Development, Chapter 7 - General frameworks of Lithuanian Law, book called The Law of the Baltic States (many editors), "in 1918 the reestablished Lithuanian state" p210, Handbook of European Intelligence Cultures and many more.--Cukrakalnis (talk) 20:30, 11 December 2021 (UTC)
  • Administrators! Stop aggressive nationalistic (chauvinistic) POV pushing by the clearly disruprive user Cukrakalnis, who systematically ignores reliable sources. --Kazimier Lachnovič (talk) 20:55, 11 December 2021 (UTC)
    Kazimier Lachnovič ignores everything presented to him and instead accuses others of "aggressive nationalistic (chauvinistic) POV pushing" and other things that are not grounded in reality. Such behaviour clearly contradicts Wikimedia Commons policy and it is problematic that Kazimier Lachnovič is allowed to rampage with his toxic ideological behaviour. Cukrakalnis (talk) 21:06, 11 December 2021 (UTC)
  • User Cukrakalnis was clearly warned [2]: “If you continue to edit war, you may be blocked from editing – even if you are right about the content issue”, but they just did three reverts in 24 hours in order to aggressively deny the history of Belarusians. The user ignores the reliable sources and arguments provided here as well as on the talk page of dispute category against such explicit discrimination of Belarusians and tries to mess the duscussion by all possible means including referring to primary and not-specialized sources and authors. I do really ask administrators to stop this disruptive behaviour! --Kazimier Lachnovič (talk) 21:32, 11 December 2021 (UTC)
The edit-war that the message concerned was about the Category:Fictional flags of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania and did not involve Kazimier Lachnovič but concerned Лобачев Владимир. I followed the Wikimedia Commons policy and did not do any more reverting concerning that category. Kazimier Lachnovič is confusing different things from different times. As I have constantly repeated and soundly reasoned, the fact that Kazimier Lachnovič views following the Wikimedia Commons policy on over-categorization as "denial of Belarusian history" clearly shows he is IDEOLOGICALLY MOTIVATED and does NOT care about Wikimedia Commons policy, scope and goals. There is no messing of discussion - the things he is referring to is just my rebuttals that collapse his entire argument and which he cannot refute, and as he will not admit that he was wrong, he will call other users like me names like "nationalistic", "chauvinistic" and etc. etc. Kazimier Lachnovič should be punished for flagrantly and repeatedly going against Wikimedia Commons policy on behaviour, by making false and slanderous statements about me and my actions.--Cukrakalnis (talk) 22:11, 11 December 2021 (UTC)

Concerns with copyrights of multiple political images: HeminKurdistan

User: HeminKurdistan (talk · contributions · Move log · block log · uploads · Abuse filter log
Reason for reporting: This editor has published many images from unreliable websites, websites that have a political COI with hosted images, or images with unknown authors, uknown dates of publication, or shady copy-right claims. Most (if not all) of the images make controversial political claims directed at the People's Mujahedin of Iran, a political group with a complicated and bitter feud with the Islamic Republic's theocrats.

I first noticed this image here that made a false copy-right claim. Then checking through the other images uploaded by this user, I noticed similar uploads (like the ones below) with shady copyright claims. Many of these images have been used throughout Wikipedia by (often by topic banned or sockpuppets) editors for spreading political POV.

Is your report politically motivated? It is not clear what issues you have with these files, e.g. files above from VOA are perfectly OK. Yann (talk) 13:05, 13 January 2022 (UTC)
Many of these images do not provide evidence of first date of publication or authors, which makes PD-Iraq or PD-Iran invalid. The uploader has also lied in the past about one of these images being copy-right free. Ypatch (talk) 05:07, 17 January 2022 (UTC)

Reason for reporting: Nationalistic (more precisely chauvinistic) vandalism on the Category:Grand Duchy of Lithuania against the sources provided on the talk page, where the user failed miserably. Page protection is required (previous requests: here and here). Kazimier Lachnovič (talk) 17:40, 26 January 2022 (UTC)

Once more, Kazimier Lachnovič is claiming things that are simply not true. Removing Category:History of Belarus from Category:Grand Duchy of Lithuania is not chauvinism, just like removing Category:History of Belarus from Category:Russian Empire would not be nationalistic or chauvinist. Spamming the same sources over and over again and ignoring arguments against those cherry-picked statements is indicative that Kazimier Lachnovič is simply pushing himself a nationalistic agenda and so is blaming that on others.--Cukrakalnis (talk) 17:54, 26 January 2022 (UTC)
Grand Duchy of Lithuania 1462 within modern boundaries
The category Category:History of Belarus should be present in Category:Grand Duchy of Lithuania according to reliable sources provided on the category talk page. So it will be present whether or not some disruptive users want it. --Kazimier Lachnovič (talk) 09:13, 27 January 2022 (UTC)
Лобачев Владимир is distorting the reality. I am not 'rewriting real history and promoting a fake chauvinist position'. That is visible from the fact that I did not remove Category:Former countries in Belarus, Category:Former countries in Russia and Category:Former countries in Ukraine. Moreover, Лобачев Владимир is lying when he says that his view is backed by "historical, political and territorial data". Furthermore, Лобачев Владимир's writing about the Russian Emperor is absolutely irrelevant, because the Russian Emperor was also titled as the King of Poland at the time. Does that mean that Polish and Lithuanian history is suddenly all Russian? Nonsense. Лобачев Владимир is the one rewriting history, yet accuses others of what he is guilty. Moreover, 'Republic of Lithuania did not originate from the Grand Duchy of Lithuania, but from a part of the Russian Empire' is historically false nonsense, because when the Republic of Lithuania started in 1918, Lithuania was occupied by the Germans (under the rule of the German Empire and thus part of it), so Лобачев Владимир is historically inaccurate. Lithuania was no longer part of the Russian Empire at the time. Лобачев Владимир getting such basic facts wrong shows how he should not be trusted with his other statements concerning history.--Cukrakalnis (talk) 21:13, 26 January 2022 (UTC)

@Yann: no sir. I came to know that he's admin. But you can see what he made on my talk page. I've provided the links above. I'm providing them again[11][12]. How did he came to know about my real name and city and how did he used the harrasment in the exact way the earlier reported IP did. Adminship doesn't give anyone right to stalk and harass someone through other platforms like the universities where someone study or on Youtube and harass them herePri2000 (talk) 21:20, 29 January 2022 (UTC)
@Pri2000: No, I think that was an error by Achim55, which was immediately self-reverted. I removed the 2 offending sections from your talk page. Regards, Yann (talk) 21:30, 29 January 2022 (UTC)

Reason for reporting: Please delete the user's page, as it violates COM:USERPAGE: User page should not express hatred of or vilify others. Maybe a block should be also applied (I prefer leaving a colleague admin dealing with this matter, this time, being myself the one attacked). Thank you! Ruthven (msg) 19:53, 13 February 2022 (UTC)

I recieved a "thank you" notification from Ruthven for this edit. Which makes it #1 weird that he now thinks the action he thanked for is something bad #2 was a further act of harassment against me after he had already pushed me out of this project. "Thanking" to someone for leaving after beeing bullied - in a way only they see and no one else - is actually pretty villain-like. Also demanding the deletion of the whole page and not just removing a sentence he has problems with aims to make my contributions here less visible and is an act of harassment. If this would be about my statements about Ruthven, deleting the whole page would be unnecessary. Don-kun (talk) 20:47, 13 February 2022 (UTC)
@Don-kun It was a kind way to notify you that you violated (again) our guidelines. Hoping that you did something about it without having to act. But you preferred to ignore it. No surprise, given your past behaviour. Ruthven (msg) 21:14, 13 February 2022 (UTC)
This explanation is a joke. And your answer is defamatory (again, as always). Don-kun (talk) 08:13, 14 February 2022 (UTC)
✓ Done. I deleted the userpage. All users must be polite and nice towards each other. This userpage was not such. I do not block Don-kun, because on the now-deleted userpage (s)he expressed wish to leave Commons indefinitely. Of course, this is not obligatory. Don-kun can always come back (even today) and continue working productively, can even recreate userpage, if this is not attacking anybody. But such userpage is not allowed.

@Ruthven: Hmm, COM:USERPAGE at the top states that The Commons community has rejected this guideline, policy, or process. So how can anyone violate it? --The Jewpacabra (talk) 10:18, 14 February 2022 (UTC)
@The Jewpacabra you can check Commons:Blocking policy ("Harassment: Accounts and IP addresses which are used primarily to create a hostile environment for another user may be blocked."). About the user page, you have your answer at Commons:Project_scope (Non-allowable user page content: Content that does not advance Commons' aims, including ...anything apparently created and/or uploaded for the purpose of vandalism or attack) They are both official guidelines. Ruthven (msg) 12:13, 14 February 2022 (UTC)
@Ruthven: So why did you say that the page (I haven't seen it) violates COM:USERPAGE??? BTW. COM:BP and COM:PSP are not guidelines, they are policies. So, as far as I understand, they are more important documents than guidelines because everyone must follow policies while everyone (only) should follow guidelines. BTW2. It doesn't seem that Don-kun's account is used primarily to create a hostile environment for another user. --The Jewpacabra (talk) 12:35, 14 February 2022 (UTC)
Taivo was already involved in the original incident and is now complicit in covering up why I left. Just another act of bullying by this group of admins - as is the unnecessary deletion of a page that almost exclusively showed my contributions to this project whithout any violation of rules just because of some sentences they have problems with.
