@Jeff G. I only see AbkhazianEmpire123 blocked and not Crimea Republic. The concern of @SpinnerLaserzthe2nd, from what I understand, is if these are socks. This remains unaddressed. Shaan SenguptaTalk 14:22, 2 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Bonjour,

J'ai voulu modifier le cadre "Description" en mettant le code suivant :

Tête de vieillard
Artist
Title
Tête de vieillard
Object type peinture
Date 1648
date QS:P571,+1648-00-00T00:00:00Z/9
Medium Peinture à l'huile sur panneau de chêne à fil vertical
Dimensions 72,3x55 centimètres
musée des Augustins
Source/Photographer https://www.augustins.org/fr/notice/2004-1-200-tete-de-vieillard-381e107e-cb6e-4187-ae63-597166fc39d3

Mais cela a été considéré comme nuisible. pourtant il s'agit seulement de compléter les informations dans le cadre d'un projet de Master 2 de l'École du Louvre. Je ferai d'ailleurs d'autres téléversements prochainement et souhaiterais, si possible, ne pas avoir à vous déranger à chaque fois.

Merci de votre aide et bonne journée.

Bien respectueusement,

modification of File:Tête de vieillard, Pieter Verelst, 1648.jpg ==

Hello,

I wanted to modify the "Description" frame by putting the following code:
Tête de vieillard
Artist
Title
Tête de vieillard
Object type peinture
Date 1648
date QS:P571,+1648-00-00T00:00:00Z/9
Medium Oil painting on oak panel with vertical grain
Dimensions 72.3x55 centimeters
musée des Augustins
Source/Photographer https://www.augustins.org/fr/notice/2004-1-200-tete-de-vieillard-381e107e-cb6e-4187-ae63-597166fc39d3

But this was considered harmful. However, it is only a question of completing the information as part of a Master 2 project at the École du Louvre. I will also be doing other uploads soon and would like, if possible, not to have to disturb you each time.

Thank you for your help and have a nice day.

With respect,

@Mariuscookherg: Bonjour et bienvenue. Je suis désolé de vous informer que vous avez déclenché Special:AbuseFilter/313 en modifiant ou en supprimant les titres de section de page standard en tant qu'utilisateur nouveau ou anonyme. Veuillez ne rien faire de tout cela, car de telles modifications par des utilisateurs nouveaux et anonymes sont considérées comme du vandalisme. Plus précisément, vous supprimiez "=={{int:filedesc}}==" (en anglais, "Summary"). Essayez de prévisualiser vos modifications. L'administrateur GPSLeo a vu un besoin et a écrit ce filtre nommé "Protéger les titres de section de page" avec la note "Empêcher tous les utilisateurs non surveillés automatiquement de modifier ou de supprimer les titres de section de page standard".

Hi, and welcome. I am sorry to inform you that you have triggered Special:AbuseFilter/313 by altering or removing the standard page section headings as a new or anonymous user. Please do not do any of that, as such edits by new and anonymous users are considered to be vandalism. Specifically, you were removing "=={{int:filedesc}}==" (in English, "Summary"). Try previewing your changes. Admin GPSLeo saw a need for and wrote that filter named "Protect page section headings" with note "Prevent all not autopatrolled users from altering or removing the standard page section headings."   — 🇺🇦Jeff G. please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 15:22, 5 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Oatsandcream socks

User:MarxesandComedy was globally blocked last month as a Category:Sockpuppets of Oatsandcream.

MarxesandComedy had uploaded File:The Cocoanuts (1929) Marx Brothers.webm earlier in 2024, and this file was put up for a DR after their block. While that DR was pending, DrMarvinGrey tried to remove the DR template from the file, nominated it as a featured media candidate, and added a template falsely saying that it was already a featured media file.

Both accounts have subsequently and unrelatedly pestered Commons users with apparently unprompted user talk page questions asking if it's "time" or "too early" to edit the lead section of enwiki's 2025 article to summarise world events ([1], [2]). That exact kind of lead edit was attempted and reverted multiple times by an Oatsandcream sock last month (eg. [3]). Perhaps their IP is blocked on enwiki, as neither account has attempted to edit there yet.

DrMarvinGrey has also asked someone to add Generation Beta to a svg diagram, an edit that earlier sock account CheeseLactose made in png form at File:Generations graph - update 2025.png last month. Belbury (talk) 15:49, 5 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

✓ Done I have indeffed both of these accounts. Regards, Aafi (talk) 16:41, 5 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Request Indefinite full-protection for Commons:Signatures

Rationale: Please this page is fully loaded with information and its use for the purpose of providing all kinds of useful information to the universe such as policy, science, education, technology research in general as well as the scientific community to support Basil Deka Basildeka9 (talk) 23:23, 5 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Could an admin perhaps remove the autoprotection? Then I would overwrite the file with a version without the watermark. Source: FoxNews. The only thing I did, I converted from mp4 to webm. Afterwards I would also do file move request. Greets: זיו「Ziv」For love letters and other notes 17:09, 6 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Ysabella: I don't see any protection on the file. You're an autopatroller so you can overwrite other people's files. Abzeronow (talk) 18:53, 6 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Strange, there was Commons:Auto-protected files/wikipedia/pt when I tried first time. Well ✓ Done זיו「Ziv」For love letters and other notes 19:25, 6 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@Ysabella: Ah, that's cascading protection. We automatically protect certain files for other wikis - generally anything that's on their front page - so it could have been on their front page at the time and then was cycled out in the meantime. The protection won't show on the individual file, hence Abzeronow's answer. It's... not the best system, but like everything around here, if it works, we have other more important problems for too few active users to work on. The Squirrel Conspiracy (talk) 23:10, 6 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@The Squirrel Conspiracy Ah, thanks. Learned something new again. זיו「Ziv」For love letters and other notes 23:18, 6 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
