Draft deletion problem template

User:Jmabel/Draft deletion problem template. Have at it. - Jmabel ! talk 02:03, 7 August 2025 (UTC)

@Jmabel: Thanks. You don't want to specify the exact problem(s)?   — 🇺🇦Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 07:07, 7 August 2025 (UTC)

I think it's much more important to just guide them to how to do it right (with a tool). - Jmabel ! talk 17:54, 7 August 2025 (UTC)

@Jmabel: Ok. Do you want to close with "If you have any questions, please post at the bottom of our village pump."? or perhaps our help desk?   — 🇺🇦Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 18:01, 7 August 2025 (UTC)

I think if we want something like that, we should allow it to be overridden (e.g. be able to choose to say "hit me up on my talk page" or "ask here, I'll be watching this page", etc.). I'll add it. - Jmabel ! talk 19:43, 7 August 2025 (UTC)

@Jmabel: Ok, but I don't have the time right now to pay attention to all their user talk pages all the time, so please don't default to that.   — 🇺🇦Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 02:42, 8 August 2025 (UTC)

I didn't.

I addressed two remarks to you at User talk:Jmabel/Draft deletion problem template, both awaiting responses. - Jmabel ! talk 03:39, 8 August 2025 (UTC)

@Jmabel: I replied, sorry, I've been busy.   — 🇺🇦Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 12:48, 8 August 2025 (UTC)

Now live at {{DR problem warning}}. Instructions are at the top of the template page. Please try it out at least the next few times you need to warn someone on this, and let's see how it goes. - Jmabel ! talk 17:15, 8 August 2025 (UTC)

@Jmabel: I tried it once, with result at User talk:CD#Deletion requests.   — 🇺🇦Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 23:43, 8 August 2025 (UTC)

@Jmabel: Would you consider adding an optional parameter (or incorporating into parameter 1) internal diff permalinks from User:FlightTime/diff-permalink as discussed with Mdaniels5757 at User talk:Jeff G./Archives/2024/December#Useful little script?   — 🇺🇦Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 14:12, 15 August 2025 (UTC)

I'm not sure I follow that, but feel free to add another parameter, as long as you document it. - Jmabel ! talk 18:58, 15 August 2025 (UTC)

@Jmabel: Given the reliance of the template on the URL, I went a different route with Special:Diff/1072696010 (level 2 because the previous paragraph is tantamount to level 1).   — 🇺🇦Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 22:07, 15 August 2025 (UTC)

Ask for clarification: which files exactly are you referring to?

Hello @Jeff G.,

I have noticed the warning template you placed on my talk page regarding alleged copyright violations. I would like to kindly ask for clarification: which files exactly are you referring to? If you are referring to the AI-enhanced images that were recently deleted, then I must respectfully point out that those deletions were not based on copyright concerns, but rather on subjective opinions about AI enhancement and "ugliness." These reasons, as I explained in the undeletion requests (1^st UDR & 2^nd UDR), are not copyright-related and therefore cannot justify the warning template.

I would appreciate it if you could please review this matter and remove the template if it was placed in error. If not, I will remove it myself, since I do not believe it accurately reflects my contributions. I have always been careful and diligent about licensing and policy compliance on Commons, and I take these matters seriously.

I remain committed to Commons policies, guidelines, and to contributing responsibly and in good faith. My uploads have always been done with the highest level of care, transparency, and collaboration with the community.

Thank you for your understanding, and I look forward to your clarification.

Best regards,

Copyright

• I won't be The Bicycle Thief. (Worvandae (talk) 06:21, 22 August 2025 (UTC))

  Ok, our best explanation is at {{subst:DR problem warning}}.   — 🇺🇦Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 15:18, 22 August 2025 (UTC)

  (talk page stalker) not sure what this is about but, Worvandae, when you upload your own work you need to indicate the license you are granting. - Jmabel ! talk 17:40, 22 August 2025 (UTC)

  @Jmabel: I'm not sure, either (aside from the user's existing contributions, user talk page, and filter log).   — 🇺🇦Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 21:32, 22 August 2025 (UTC)

  • I would have to guess he is referring to the de Sica film where the protagonist, after having his bicycle (his only significant possession stolen) tries (and fails) to steal someone else's bicycle, and act that would normally be very out of character for him. So there is presumably something he is saying he will not go tit for tat. On that assumption, I pointed out to him that the issues that have been raised on his talk page were entirely legitimate.
  • @Worvandae: if I misunderstood, feel free to clarify. And, by the way, I'm an administrator here. - Jmabel ! talk 22:04, 22 August 2025 (UTC)
