The Admin's Barnstar |
I noticed the talk page semi-protection - that's a definite sign of an active admin! Keep up the great work!  INeverCry 04:27, 31 March 2016 (UTC) |
- Also, if it makes you feel any better, at least you don't get messages like these. That's this guy... INeverCry 04:31, 31 March 2016 (UTC)

No source
I see you have been tagging files with {{no source since}}. The first I checked did indeed have a source, although not mentioned in the right field, e.g. File:YMengbarriers.jpg had a link labeled "Image du DOE" (image of DOE) and File:19651201 FDA Report.jpg is an FDA Report (what copy of the report was scanned is hardly relevant), File:100RSD front.jpg says "From the site of the National bank of Serbia".
I notice some of the templates are about real issues, but I'd hope you could check a bit more carefully before putting the files on train for deletion.

- LPfi It would be perhaps a good idea to think all the way through these. Sources are needed for images and documents... "of the DOE" with nothing further to lead to a source. The FDA report has no source, and isn't helpful, all the other images uploaded by that uploader of this type were already removed as no source, this is just the lat one. The "from the site of the National bank of Serbia" does not lead to an image of what was uploaded to Commons. I really do think I know what I'm doing on "no source", it would be nice if you either reverted your edits, or put them to Deletion Nominations where consensus can be achieved rather than to take the tags off and just toss them back into the pile of "no source" images because the sources as shown are insufficient. Or you could find valid sources for the images - I was unable to do so - there was nothing online to indicate where they came from. Cheers! Ellin Beltz (talk) 02:08, 17 August 2016 (UTC)

- The {{no source since}} is meant to lead to deletion unless a source is found. Thus it should be used only if there are real problems. For a PD document, I have a hard time believing who scanned it, what copy was scanned or similar things make a major difference. Would a "scan of my own copy" suffice as source? For "DOE" and "site of the National bank of Serbia" I'd be ready to assume good faith. Even if the link is down now, I'd suppose those files are downloaded from those sites.

- But OK, we seem to have widely different understanding of what kind of source is needed, and you probably have enough experience to have a well-grounded understanding, so I'll make a DR on one of them: Commons:Deletion requests/File:100RSD front.jpg.
- LPfi You are welcome to make any assumptions you choose, you are not welcome to apply them to me. I am perfectly aware what happens to "no source" files. There are 161 administrators on Commons; currently I am the seventh most active, see [1]. I work with "no source" images all the time, and continue to work with our backlog of slightly over 55,000 images at present. I would appreciate a lack of lecturing on the process. Since you only dealt with one of the three, please have a look at the nominations for the other two. Cheers! Ellin Beltz (talk) 14:31, 17 August 2016 (UTC)

- I am sorry if I seemed to make some wrong assumptions or was too lecturing. English not being my first language may limit my options somewhat; I might have worded it better in Swedish or Finnish. I did see that you are an administrator (after making the first comment), and I still think the assumption that you know what you are talking about is well grounded. I also think that I am as capable of understanding as anybody, so when I think something does not make sense I want clarification. --LPfi (talk) 15:52, 17 August 2016 (UTC)

- @De Mazid Islam: I've restored File:De Mazid Islam.jpg for you, but you have to use this on one of your user pages, otherwise it may get deleted again. INeverCry 19:05, 17 August 2016 (UTC)
