- Both maps are in use, so I would have to give the requests a more thorough review. We tend not to delete the illustrations of old discussions because of archival and transparency. Sincerely, Blurpeace 04:31, 5 June 2010 (UTC)
redirect
[edit]Hi Blurpe ace, the redirect at File:Mine and Thine, Coates, 1904.djvu was causing a bit of confusion elsewhere, a soft redirect or badname template would avoid this in situation. cygnis insignis 16:39, 9 June 2010 (UTC)

File copyright issues for File:KRR.jpg
[edit]Hi, The image File:KRR.jpg has been given the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 3.0 Unported License while uploading the image. Pls do let me know what other licenses are required for the same. I have already replied to the email giving the licenses once again in the mail. Pls do check and let me know so I can give the required permissions if required. - Thaejas (talk) 08:34, 22 June 2010 (UTC)
Thank you for cleaning up the subject file. It would also be appropriate here: File:Moroni Mosque Photo by Sascha Grabow.jpg and at two others by this user. Do I understand that the sequence is to "delete all" at the latest image and then undelete only the first one? Or something else?
Since I had warned him or her twice that he would be blocked if he changed any of the files again, I have blocked him for three days. After that we'll see. Thanks again. Jim . . . . Jameslwoodward (talk to me) 17:01, 23 June 2010 (UTC)
- You have it right. Delete the image and then restore without revisions after the first. Thanks, Blurpeace 21:33, 23 June 2010 (UTC)
- Thanks for the clarification -- I had guessed that you had said it backwards, but it's always nice to be sure. Jim . . . . Jameslwoodward (talk to me) 10:46, 24 June 2010 (UTC)
- Good morning. I afraid don't understand the changes you made today to these four images -- we had high resolution images with good licenses and the uploader, User:Schoci, has been trying for two weeks to upload lower resolution images with watermarks. I suspect, but can't prove, that this is because he or she has sold the images and needs to remove them from Commons as part of that -- see his/her web site. One of them went through a DR, you and I together removed the long history. So, what's in the OTRS ticket? Since you are completely familiar with the history, I assume there is a good reason for your action -- I'd just like to understand it, please. Jim . . . . Jameslwoodward (talk to me) 11:19, 27 June 2010 (UTC)
- Morning James, I'll be out with the family today. When I get back, I'll update you with an email. Cheers, Blurpeace 14:05, 27 June 2010 (UTC)

- Hi Pedrocuba, if you're still checking this page for a response, my apologies. I wasn't active leading up to or during holiday weekend (July 4th is the independence day of the US). I suggest messaging someone at the Spanish Wikipedia, as I'm only a novice in the language, or asking another Commons editor who is also active at the Spanish Wikipedia.

I contacted the copyright holder regarding File:Ayala BAC Picture 2009-2010.JPG and File:Ayala_Band_and_Color_guard,_2010.jpg, and he sent a mail to OTRS with the sufficient permissions for these two files. However, the status on these pages is still referring to the message I sent last night. Is it possible to check and update the permissions? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Saiarcot895 (talk • contribs)

I need help!
[edit]Hi, You have been quite helpful in the past and I hope you cvan help again, although this is very different than our past encounters. I noticed a deletion request and while I totally agree with it being deleted I felt that I should enhance the image that it has been replaced by. I added sources to it and a more universal despription. Unfortunately the despription and source areas of the information box are either not showing up or completely screwing up one way or another. Could you please fix the problems?
It is quite obvious from the edit tab on both images what needs to show and how it is supposed to show. For example much of the descriptions are invisible to the viewer but visible in the edit tab and preferably the sources would appear in the source part of the information box instead of below it. (I want the German and Persian to also appear on the latter image as well but didn't add it yet because it completely screwed up the box).
I hope you can help! Please message me if you successfully finish or wether you need me to contact someone else. Maps & Lucy (talk) 00:47, 16 December 2010 (UTC)
- I checked with another editor over IRC and that user concluded it was a built-in feature. The software was written with a scripted 5 translation limit which is turned on when that number is exceeded, thus only showing the default language to its reader. Blurpeace 02:15, 17 December 2010 (UTC)
- Thank you for responding. However, I did not exceed 5 translations: I had English, French, Spanish German and Persian, which adds up to 5 however only English shows on one and only the first three on the other. Also, you didn't say anything about the Source section. I have also filed a complaint about the template here. Thanks again, Maps & Lucy (talk) 15:03, 17 December 2010 (UTC)
- Ok, I got the other languages to show properly now, so that's done, but the source section is still screwing up if there are more than two lines. (Sorry if my persistence is annoying). Maps & Lucy (talk) 15:35, 17 December 2010 (UTC)
- I fixed the sources too now. Thanks for being there for me and checking into it. I guess they fixed it now. Maps & Lucy (talk) 02:37, 18 December 2010 (UTC)

File:Indrasexwithahalya.jpg fails "Must be realistically useful for an educational purpose" of Commons:Project scope. --Redtigerxyz (talk) 17:26, 27 April 2011 (UTC)
- Well, it's in use and there's no replacement for it (i.e., for that specific illustration), regardless of the low quality. I don't see the problem, but if you insist, I suggest opening another request. I respectfully have to disagree with your conclusion. Blurpeace 19:54, 27 April 2011 (UTC)
- If you check the use, the image was placed in the article by its creator. It is so blurred that you can't make out anything from the image and anyone visiting the temple (which is a popular tourist place) can just go and click another photo of the same subject. --Redtigerxyz 05:13, 30 April 2011 (UTC)
- I reversed my decision. Thank you for clarifying. Blurpeace 05:20, 30 April 2011 (UTC)

A note about copyright
[edit]Hello: First off, thanks on behalf of all site users for taking the time to be an administrator, which I'm sure can at times seem like a thankless job. I happened to read this historical deletion conversation about the Henry Moore sculpture and since that discussion is closed I thought I would write to you here. I hope that's ok. In a previous job I used to manage copyright matters for my department at a large publishing house (e.g. filed copyright notices, wrote other publishers to request permission to reprint).
For your future reference: The standard interpretation of copyright in the United States is that the creator owns copyright in their work from the moment of its creation. It's an intrinsic property of creating something. You don't have to claim it in any special way or do anything special such as include a copyright notice (or carve one into your sculpture) -- you own copyright in your work until and unless you sign ownership away in writing. It's common (in publishing, at least) to declare one's copyright by filing paperwork with the US Copyright Office/Library of Congress, but failing to do so does not in any way change the fact of one's ownership. (Just might make it harder to prove.) It should be assumed that Henry Moore owned copyright in the work unless there is evidence that he assigned copyright to someone else in writing (possible, and the sculpture itself would show no evidence of this). An exception to the need for assigning copyright away in writing would be if he created the sculpture as part of job duties as a US government employee, which would automatically make the work in the public domain (also possible, since he did create works commissioned by the National Gallery of Art and UNESCO, but I have no idea whether he was ever employed by the US government). One more thing: Someone with more experience in copyright law specific to works of art would know better, but it seems pretty significant that the item in question in this case is a photo of something he created, not an actual reproduction of it. Hope this helps in the case of similar discussions in future. Cheers ~~ — Preceding unsigned comment added by Nebbish (talk • contribs)

King's cross
[edit]What the hell? There is no "London" in its name, the station is called King's Cross. Furthermore, why did you DELETE the original category? That is just stupid when you are moving something which has been in place for so long. At least leave a category redirect and fix all the links. -mattbuck (Talk) 01:40, 2 July 2012 (UTC)
- Settled in part over IRC. Going to open a discussion about the name on-wiki soon. Blurpeace 02:11, 2 July 2012 (UTC)
Hi. I was checking the logs after a deletion and noticed this one. I'm rather puzzled as to why you deleted this picture. As far as I can see it represents a young man (possibly 16 yo) wearing underwear. What's so terribly shocking about it? Jastrow (Λέγετε) 09:38, 23 July 2012 (UTC)
- That sentence doesn't ring strangely to you, that we should be hosting photos of 16 year olds posing in their underwear? Why do you say "possibly" when the uploader (whose username is "-HappyHardcore-") wrote into the title that the subject isn't of age? Doesn't any of that seem off balance? Blurpeace 09:53, 23 July 2012 (UTC)
- Also, given the fact that he's underage, and that the photo isn't used anywhere, I think it's very much best to lean on the side of safety here. Blurpeace 09:56, 23 July 2012 (UTC)
- The uploader claims the young man here is 16 yo. It seems plausible, but we don't usually take uploader's declarations at face value, or we would have to keep all these soi-disant self-made pictures that are blatantly ripped off the Internet. Anyway, the young man being underage or not isn't really my point. This picture shows an as far as I can see unerect young man posing in underwear in a completely asexual way. This picture could feature in a clothing catalogue. We can't see his face, so there is no privacy issue. As such, I don't find it shocking in any way, shape or form. My opinion as a fellow admin is that you should have requested the deletion of this pic on COM:DR instead of deleting it summarily. Jastrow (Λέγετε) 11:02, 23 July 2012 (UTC)
- Jastrow, I feel that any unused photo of a 16 year old stripped down to his or her underwear could easily be replaced by an alternative and that it's entirely within our remit as Commons administrators to protect the mission and the reputation of this website. There is nothing educational about an adolescent underage that could not be reasonably substituted by one who is over. I think it's a shame that we have to be discussing this, that it should be an uncontroversial deletion, but I have no reservations about you bringing my actions up for review. Blurpeace 11:22, 23 July 2012 (UTC)
- I'm not quite sure what is the correct procedure in this case, undelete + DR or an undeletion request. I put up an undeletion request over there: Commons:Undeletion requests/Current requests#File:16 Year old wearing jocks.JPG. Also, I thought it best not to sum up your arguments myself. Jastrow (Λέγετε) 13:01, 23 July 2012 (UTC)

Your decision has been upheld; I stand corrected. Jastrow (Λέγετε) 19:46, 23 July 2012 (UTC)
- No hard feelings, Jastrow. I'm not always going to be right. This is just one of the few areas where I thought a clear and decisive action should be taken. While I did come off provocatively earlier—and I apologize for any harm done—more often than not, I'm not one to be taking a firm stance on anything (just recently opened two deletion requests on photos from that category). If you ever have any other objections to a decision I've made, I welcome you to visit again and do the same. I sincerely welcome differences of opinion. Best, Blurpeace 18:45, 24 July 2012 (UTC)
- Hello,
- I've seen this discussion reviewing the COM:UNDEL page.
- Blurpeace, why do you try to aggressively impose a fait accompli instead to open a proper discussion? Why furthermore, do you avoid proper argumentation and instead made this a personal attack trying to shame the requester (“I think it's a shame that we have to be discussing this, that it should be an uncontroversial deletion, but I have no reservations about you bringing my actions up for review.”)? Why do you present your opinions as undisputed facts (“There is nothing educational about an adolescent underage that could not be reasonably substituted by one who is over.”)? Would it be a sign you have difficulties to process this kind of pictures on a pure rational basis and instead have to reach the emotion area?
- I would like in the future you open a DR in similar cases and refrain yourself to this kind of attitude. A deletion process is a discussion and everyone on this project have the right to say to you something like no, this is not a uncontroversial action. --Dereckson (talk) 08:15, 24 July 2012 (UTC)

Please don't remove templates without fixing the reason they were applied!
[edit]Hiya: If you have time to remove templates, as you did at [1], you must also have time to fill in source and author on the template which caused the image to be marked no source. You will notice my request to you on 20th of May for the same reason. It is up to the uploader of the image to provide source and author information as the uploader is the only one who knows. I could assume (and probably rightly) that the source should read {{own}}, and the author would be you; but that would assumption not knowledge. Since you know, would you please take the time to provide the information requested by the tag, i.e. source and author, prior to removing any of these tags in the future?

De-adminship
[edit]Hi Blurpeace! This is just to inform you that earlier today, you had your adminship privileges revoked on Meta by a Wikimedia steward; as you are an experienced editor, I added you to the autopatrolled user group instead (which doesn't affect your editing anyway). Thank you for you service as an administrator, and I hope you will stay active on Commons as a regular contributor. Of course, please do feel free to re-apply for adminship when you get more active :-) Thank you! odder (talk) 22:41, 14 August 2016 (UTC)
- No trouble, Odder. All the best. Blurpeace 23:48, 14 August 2016 (UTC)

Alan Bristow, date of image
[edit]Dear Blurpeace,
wondering if you are still active. Also wondering if you are the right person to talk to.
You are, if you uploaded an image of Alan Bristow, raising a glass. https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Alan_Bristow_in_May_2009.jpg
The problem with the caption/info for this image is: It states, the date that image was 13. May 2009. But: Alan Bristow died 26. Apri 2009.
I am trying to figure out where the error emanates. Really not being a buff in Wikipedia I asked a colleague and he said, it is better to first try to contact the user who put up the image first.
Are you that user? I ask because it says the submission (of the photo) is by Patrick Malone, who apparently is the autor of an Alan Bristow bio.
I don‘t understand the difference between submission and user. Isn’t the user who uploads an image the one who submits it? And if not, how is the person holding the rights (here: Patrick Malone) originator of a submission, if he doesn’t actually upload? Hpwever, this is on the side.
The issue is with the date in caption.
Greetings
