Protect or Semi-protect File:ChatGPT_logo.svg
People keep attempting to use this page as if it actually is ChatGPT, needs constant reverting. Gnomingstuff (talk) 18:40, 7 August 2023 (UTC)

Inappropriate German (I think?) username
Google translate tells me that Tsing Schwanz Fotze is inappropriate, but can a German-speaker please confirm and block if warranted? Probably a sock of this person too, see File:Solaris Urbino 18 IV Bratislava.jpg vs Special:Undelete/File:SU18BT2020.jpg. —Mdaniels5757 (talk • contribs) 01:14, 8 August 2023 (UTC)

Done. I semi-protected the page for a month, but I do not see a need to revdel. Taivo (talk) 19:45, 8 August 2023 (UTC)
Done revdelled 3 edit summaries. —Mdaniels5757 (talk • contribs) 23:54, 8 August 2023 (UTC)
Semi-protection
Please semi-protect File:Poireaux.JPG, constantly vandalized. RodRabelo7 (talk) 02:00, 10 August 2023 (UTC)
Done. Some files have plausible explanation, why they are vandalized, but for some files there is a big mystery, why somebody wants to vandalize them. Taivo (talk) 07:51, 10 August 2023 (UTC)

Self block request
Hi, I am here to request for a self-block on Wikimedia for a period of 97 days since I am getting distracted easily to contribute on the wikimedia and I have something important to care about in my personal life. I was guided/sent here from the Help Desk. Any help is appreciated. Thank you. 456legend (talk) 16:37, 10 August 2023 (UTC)

Continued upload of files of dubious copyright despite a prior block and assurances of future conduct 🇺🇦 Timtrent 🇺🇦 talk to me 🇺🇦 12:00, 11 August 2023 (UTC)
- Note the statement about paid editing at w:en:User:Lalmohanlal. Paid editors are expected to know what is and is not appropriate. 🇺🇦 Timtrent 🇺🇦 talk to me 🇺🇦 12:04, 11 August 2023 (UTC)
- I have not used any copyright file. I do not get paid for creating Wikipedia pages. I do not charge anything for creating Wikipedia pages. I am not being compensated in any way directly or indirectly for my edits. Lalmohanlal (talk) 12:59, 11 August 2023 (UTC)
- Administrators' attention is drawn toCommons:Deletion requests/Files uploaded by Lalmohanlal and the comments of Elcobbola in the discussion. Of peripheral interest might be w:en:Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Ildivino1010, in a long queue of SPIs there. 🇺🇦 Timtrent 🇺🇦 talk to me 🇺🇦 21:34, 11 August 2023 (UTC)

I propose indef full protection on User talk:GifTagger. The page keeps getting diverse deletion notifications that serve no purpose because 1. The bot is inactive 2. The bot operator is inactive 3. The bot nor its operator is responsible for the possible copyvio in any of the bot's uploads since the bot just turned others' files into another file format. While you're at it, delete User talk:GifTagger/Archive 1, User talk:GifTagger/Archive 2, User talk:GifTagger/Archive 3, User talk:GifTagger/Archive 4, User talk:GifTagger/Archive 5 and User talk:GifTagger/Archive 6 which are just filled with notifications that also serve no purpose whatsoever and archiving them also makes no sense. The notifications belong rather on the users who uploaded the GIF files in the first place than on this bot who just turned the GIFs into PNGs. Jonteemil (talk) 23:51, 11 August 2023 (UTC)
- Ditto, indef full protection User talk:File Upload Bot (Magnus Manske) and delete all of User talk:File Upload Bot (Magnus Manske)/Archive. Jonteemil (talk) 00:05, 12 August 2023 (UTC)
