Notification about possible deletion[edit]

Some contents have been listed at Commons:Deletion requests so that the community can discuss whether they should be kept or not. We would appreciate it if you could go to voice your opinion about this at their entry.

If you created these pages, please note that the fact that they have been proposed for deletion does not necessarily mean that we do not value your kind contribution. It simply means that one person believes that there is some specific problem with them, such as a copyright issue. Please see Commons:But it's my own work! for a guide on how to address these issues.

Please remember to respond to and – if appropriate – contradict the arguments supporting deletion. Arguments which focus on the nominator will not affect the result of the nomination. Thank you!

Commons:License review request[edit]

Hi. The EN article Kae Miller is up for Good Article nomination, and the reviewer is waiting on two images that I uploaded to be reviewed. I'm a fellow License reviewer, but obviously can't review images I uploaded myself. Would you be so good as to stamp, and thereby confirm that

File:Kae Miller - Landscape.jpg (and therefore its derivative File:Kae Miller - Landscape (cropped).jpg)
File:Kae Miller - Porirua landfill lodge.jpg

are properly licensed at https://www.maxrashbrooke.net/the-good-society/kae-miller ? Max Rashbrooke is an author and her grandson. https://www.maxrashbrooke.net/more-about-me Thank you! --GRuban (talk) 19:08, 1 February 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Done by another License reviewer. --GRuban (talk) 20:47, 6 February 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

re: Not all of us contribute to commons[edit]

Hi Animalparty:

A while ago you responded to my posting at the Village pump]. I just wanted to thank you, and since you said that you would "be very interested in hearing more about how consumers use and view Commons" I wonder if I can answer some of the questions you may have.

I am an editor who contributes content mainly at the English Wikiquote, where images are an important part of that wiki. My difficulty at Commons, most of the time, is to locate images using the commons categories. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to ask me. I visit Commons periodically and will subscribe to this thread.

Hello Animalparty, looking at the description of the file, are you sure this is [[:Category:|Edwin W. Sims]]? He does not look like Edwin W. Sims (Q113754599) (Canadian lawyer) whereas the description states ex-U.S. Attorney Edwin Simms. Thank you for your time. Cheers Lotje (talk) 14:28, 22 April 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
