We would appreciate it if you could go to voice your opinion about this at its entry. If you created this category, please note that the fact that it has been proposed for discussion does not necessarily mean that we do not value your kind contribution.

If the category is up for deletion because it has been superseded, consider the notion that although the category may be deleted, your hard work (which we all greatly appreciate) lives on in the new category. In all cases, please do not take the category discussion personally. It is never intended as such. Thank you! |

Correct way of filing mass files on DR.
[edit]Hi AwkwardChester, you accidentally files the DR on the DR log page. The DR needs to be on its own page (e.g. if it is just a single file) but you almost had the mass file DR done correctly with the list of files (just wasn't at the correct page) and the reason but I have corrected this for you.

Rationale?
[edit]Can you explain the benefit of deleting the members of Hunger strike recipients? I could not see your edit summary for it. thanks Victuallers (talk) 14:08, 18 February 2022 (UTC)
Your unexplained removals of appropriate categories
[edit]Twice in two days I have reverted your edits in which you deleted appropriate categories from images of notable women: at File:Jane Urquhart Portrait.jpg and at File:Sarah Elizabeth Stewart.jpg. I see that other editors have been questioning your deletions as well, and am starting to wonder if you are a good-faith editor or a low-profile vandal. You need to start writing edit summaries to justify your deletions. -- WikiPedant (talk) 18:27, 25 July 2022 (UTC)
- WikiPedant Because when i created a category for the women on the pic (or when the category already exist like for the two exemple u give) i delete the category i put on the women's page like 'female writers from Canada' from the pic. it's to prevent to find the same pic on the "female writers from Canada" cat and in the sub-cat 'Jane Urquhart' of "female writers of Canada". to make pictures easier to find because commons is a messy place, sorry trying to organize things, i think it was obvious and logical... AwkwardChester (talk) 19:40, 28 July 2022 (UTC)
- @AwkwardChester: Yes, I see what you're doing now and have restored your versions of the 2 pages cited above. But, please, you really should write edit summaries. It is a mistake to think that unexplained edits are "obvious". Best regards, WikiPedant (talk) 22:34, 28 July 2022 (UTC)

Foto der Lichtkünstler Ursula Molitor & Vladimir Kuzmin
[edit]Hi, AwkwardChester, you changed the category and made up a category with the name of only Ursula Molitor. But in my article on Ursula Molitor and Vladimir Kuzmin i state that they are an artist-group, they do work together. I don't find it fair to only name her on the category. If at all a change is needed, i would much prefer to name the category "Ursula Molitor & Vladimir Kuzmin", please. LG, Naomi Hennig (talk) 16:19, 28 December 2022 (UTC)

Dear Wikimedian,
Wikimedia Commons is happy to announce that the 2022 Picture of the Year competition is now open. This year will be the seventeenth edition of the annual Wikimedia Commons photo competition, which recognizes exceptional contributions by users on Wikimedia Commons. Wikimedia users are invited to vote for their favorite images featured on Commons during the last year (2022) to produce a single Picture of the Year.
Hundreds of images that have been rated Featured Pictures by the international Wikimedia Commons community in the past year are all entered in this competition. These images include professional animal and plant shots, breathtaking panoramas and skylines, restorations of historical images, photographs portraying the world's best architecture, impressive human portraits, and so much more.
For your convenience, we have sorted the images into topical categories. Two rounds of voting will be held: In the first round, you may vote for as many images as you like. The top 30 overall and the two most popular images in each category will continue to the final. In the final round, you may vote for just three images to become the Picture of the Year.
Round 1 will end on UTC.
Thanks,
the Wikimedia Commons Picture of the Year committee
You are receiving this message because you voted in the 2021 Picture of the Year contest.

Autopatrol given
[edit]![](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/c1/Commons_Autopatrolled.svg/50px-Commons_Autopatrolled.svg.png)
Hello. I just wanted to let you know that I have granted autopatrol rights to your account; the reason for this is that I believe you are sufficiently trustworthy and experienced to have your contributions automatically marked as "reviewed". This has no effect on your editing, it is simply intended to make it easier for users that are monitoring Recent changes or Recent uploads to find unproductive edits amidst the productive ones like yours. In addition, the Flickr upload feature and an increased number of batch-uploads in UploadWizard, uploading of freely licensed MP3 files, overwriting files uploaded by others and an increased limit for page renames per minute are now available to you. Thank you. —Mdaniels5757 (talk • contribs) 01:59, 2 May 2023 (UTC)

How to ask for speedy-delete of an empty category
[edit]When you want to ask for speedy-delete of an empty category, best practice is to mark it with {{SD|C2}} if it would be OK to re-create it in the future, given that appropriate content becomes available or {{SD|C1}} if it is an inappropriate category name that should not be reused. In particular, this is better practice than just blanking the category page, as you did at Category:Alumni of the University of Uppsala. ("C1" and "C2" come from Commons:Criteria for speedy deletion). Jmabel ! talk 04:41, 5 August 2024 (UTC)
