== Requesting mass deletion of {{ping|DeepstoneV}}'s uploads. ==
== [[User:Artem Karimov]] ==

On top of previously mentioned problems, now he engaged himself into edit warring: [[:File:Standard time zones of the world.png]].--[[User:Ymblanter|Ymblanter]] ([[User talk:Ymblanter|<span class="signature-talk">talk</span>]]) 19:39, 15 February 2012 (UTC)
:'''Protected''' for one week. Discussion is to occur on the talk page. Use {{tl|editprotected}} to request changes before expiration of protection. [[User:Russavia|russavia]] ([[User talk:Russavia|<span class="signature-talk">talk</span>]]) 19:43, 15 February 2012 (UTC)
:: Great, thanks. May be at some point he will realize that if everybody tells him that black is black and he is the only one to insist that black is white, than smth might be wrong, but protection as a temporary decision is fine.--[[User:Ymblanter|Ymblanter]] ([[User talk:Ymblanter|<span class="signature-talk">talk</span>]]) 19:48, 15 February 2012 (UTC)
::: It is more important that all involved understand that slow-revert wars on files such as this are disruptive not only to Commons, but also to other projects which are using the image. Is it imperative that all parties discuss the issues on the talk page of the file concerned. There is nothing more really to say in this matter from where I am sitting. [[User:Russavia|russavia]] ([[User talk:Russavia|<span class="signature-talk">talk</span>]]) 22:33, 15 February 2012 (UTC)
::: Funny. No exceptions for Kosovo. All separatist movements or none. That simple. [[User:Artem Karimov|Artem Karimov]] ([[User talk:Artem Karimov|<span class="signature-talk">talk</span>]]) 23:04, 15 February 2012 (UTC)

:::: That doesn't make any sense. Would you really exclude the United States from the map? At a certain point a separatist movement becomes a legitimate nation. Kosovo has achieved at least some of the markers of being a legitimate nation, and therefore it's not being exceptional to list it as one.--[[User:Prosfilaes|Prosfilaes]] ([[User talk:Prosfilaes|<span class="signature-talk">talk</span>]]) 10:17, 16 February 2012 (UTC)
::::: In that case Abkhazia and South Ossetia should be included as well. Along with Trasnistria and Northern Cyprus. They are all de-facto states. [[User:Artem Karimov|Artem Karimov]] ([[User talk:Artem Karimov|<span class="signature-talk">talk</span>]]) 17:58, 16 February 2012 (UTC)
I hope you will also help to protect the [[:File:Terlezky-2010-doloi.jpg]] with its previous detailed description, instead of the current one that appears to hide the relevant details about the subject of this photo. See the story above.--[[User:PereslavlFoto|PereslavlFoto]] ([[User talk:PereslavlFoto|<span class="signature-talk">talk</span>]]) 21:37, 15 February 2012 (UTC)
:How about I, instead, leave the file unprotected, remove the English description entirely, and place all on notice that the next person to revert, or add any English description at all, without engaging in at least a one-week discussion on the talk page, and with some resemblance of consensus, will receive, courtesy of myself, a two week no-expenses paid vacation from Commons. '''No-one''' has used the talk page on the file, so no-one is innocent in this instance. [[User:Russavia|russavia]] ([[User talk:Russavia|<span class="signature-talk">talk</span>]]) 22:42, 15 February 2012 (UTC)

::How about the following purely-factual text (which is necessary for ordinary English speakers to have any understanding of the context) be permanently left in place: "Grafitti reads: «Долой власть жидов», where the word «жид» is a derogatory term for «Jew». (The non-derogatory Russian word for «Jew» is «еврей».)" [[User:AnonMoos|AnonMoos]] ([[User talk:AnonMoos|<span class="signature-talk">talk</span>]]) 23:13, 15 February 2012 (UTC)
:::I have always included this in English description, as your addition is important, but not full explanation of the photographed scene. So, if we include it, we are to include other details. With your explanation it becomes visible that the slogan is derogatory, but is stays unclear about why the slogan is against governing ''powers''.--[[User:PereslavlFoto|PereslavlFoto]] ([[User talk:PereslavlFoto|<span class="signature-talk">talk</span>]]) 23:25, 15 February 2012 (UTC)

::Seems fair, because the most full description was collected in the same way. I discussed the question with other editors and they either added something or explained the theme to research. Also, the question does not depend on the language. The trouble is, one side is inclusive and prefers to show all attitudes; other is not, and prefers to show only their own attitude. To protect his short description and to avoid any other opinion but his own, one administrative user preferred to block me, and he seems to be against any details and explanations in this description. You may see the discussions. They started [[:User talk:Андрей Романенко|here]] with no result, and continued [[:User talk:Blacklake|there]]. In the 2nd discussion I learned there was «место собраний праворадикальных группировок», so I checked the mass media and added the explanation in Russian about «Russian national unity». The 3rd discussion was [[:User talk:Mitrius|there]], and it appeared that the description must avoid «own idiosyncratic views», so I kept and increased the number of hyperlinks to the sources in the description. Next discussion was kept [[Commons:Deletion requests/File:Terlezky-2010-doloi.jpg|in DR]] and helped to improve the translation.--[[User:PereslavlFoto|PereslavlFoto]] ([[User talk:PereslavlFoto|<span class="signature-talk">talk</span>]]) 23:25, 15 February 2012 (UTC)
:::Let's say that we have a picture of the gathering of Flat Earth Society, and somebody in the description spends 2 paragraphs explaining how these people actually do not believe that the earth is flat, but actually oppose the doctrine that earth quakes are caused by the plate techtonics. That "full description" would not be helpful. The main reason for that is that it's misleading. In other words the fact that some description is longer doesn't mean that it's better. It's the same with this photo, the shorter description with the translation of the text written actually gives clearer understanding of what is depicted there than a wishwash of "The word 'kike' actually means something different, because the park has been known for kicking out nazis who wrote this slogan". [[User:Beta_M|VolodyA! V Anarhist]] <small>Beta_M</small> ([[User talk:Beta_M|converse]]) 16:44, 18 February 2012 (UTC)

To all groups, please take it to the talk pages of the files concerned. That is the essence of what I have stated above. There is no more need to reply here, when valuable time could be spent on discussion of issues relating to the files in question. Thanks, [[User:Russavia|russavia]] ([[User talk:Russavia|<span class="signature-talk">talk</span>]]) 09:46, 16 February 2012 (UTC)

Hi Admins! This User is uploading a lot of stuff, lots got deleted already. Seems to be very resistant against any kind of counseling.

== [[User:Martin H.]] ==

{{userlinks|Martin H.}} Multiple edit warring against several users in [[:Category:Quality images by country]] and all subcategories, where he removes the topic categories (e.g. [http://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Category:Quality_images_of_the_United_Kingdom&diff=prev&oldid=67461448 "Photographs of the UK" from "Quality images of the UK"]). I [[User_talk:Martin_H.#QI_subcats|requested]] on his talk page (as well as a further user did), but user Martin H. does not see a need for any discussion on this issue. The most strange thing is, that user Martin H. removes topic categories from just a part of QI subcats, without doing it for other ones (like [[:Category:Quality images of Japan]] and many more; not to mention similar categories for Valued or Featured images) and bringing chaos in the system this way. - [[User:A.Savin|A.Savin]] 13:24, 24 February 2012 (UTC)

The same situation was with other category tree, when a user took categories with typical names of "This street" or "That street" or "Third street", removed them from a mother-category "Buildings of Town" and collected them into into a mother-category "Streets of the Town". The issue was, there were no images of streets in these categories, only images of buildings. When asked about the reason to collect the buildings images into the streets super-category, that user kept silence and avoided any explaining speech. Now there exist several empty and useless "streets" categories. Maybe someone will pay attention and solve this issue.--[[User:PereslavlFoto|PereslavlFoto]] ([[User talk:PereslavlFoto|<span class="signature-talk">talk</span>]]) 13:58, 24 February 2012 (UTC)

And the edit warring by Martin H. unfortunately seems to [http://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Category:Quality_images_of_Singapore&diff=prev&oldid=67465970 go on]. - [[User:A.Savin|A.Savin]] 16:22, 24 February 2012 (UTC)
::The quality images related issues are a long standing disagreement (See for example [[:User_talk:Martin_H./Archive_19#Featured_pictures_of_the_United_States]]) between "maintenance" and "topical" categories. I could not find immediately other similar discussions.
::While I share Martin's concerns about the danger of deeper and deeper side categories that form a parallel system to the current category system (it could lead to quality image categories for each "topical" category), I disagree that those are really maintenance categories. The fundamental problem is that indeed we have on Commons no "labelling" system that allows to select in a certain category media with a certain attribute, such as B&W, video, audio, SVG, QI, VI, Featured pictures, aerial, panoramic, date (range), superseded, ... and more arguably heritage buildings, author, ... So we have a permanent problem to find compromises about the depth and visibility of such categories. It is true that Martin is rather inflexible on his point and that he don't want the same discussion to be repeated over and over again. --[[User:Foroa|Foroa]] ([[User talk:Foroa|<span class="signature-talk">talk</span>]]) 16:51, 24 February 2012 (UTC)

This seems more like a policy issue than a user issue. It needs to be settled whether QI categories and the like are to be within the topic category tree or not (and that's a job for the Village Pump or a [[COM:RFC|RFC]], or perhaps elsewhere, but not here). Of course, long-term it would be best if Commons' browsing system was intelligent enough to do filtering and sorting, including by quality status...

== Removal of file list [[Commons:Deletion requests/Template:PD-Afghanistan]] ==

I have compiled the list of files under [[Commons:Deletion requests/Template:PD-Afghanistan]] that are tagged with the template in question. Seemingly all of the images tagged with this template has a problem one way or another (some should even be re-tagged). The images are expected to comply with the three conditions below.
# ''The work was first published in Afghanistan.''
# ''The authors of the work are citizens of Afghanistan and are not also citizens or permanent residents of any country that participates in the Berne Convention.''
# ''Within thirty days of its first publication in Afghanistan, the work was never published in any country that participates in the Berne Convention.''

I was going to make an effort (with the help of others) to review the individual images to make sure if they are complying with the three conditions the template presents and try to re-tag them with something more suitable.

A user (admin) {{User|Cambalachero}} has removed my entry to the above page twice so far: [http://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Commons%3ADeletion_requests%2FTemplate%3APD-Afghanistan&diff=67557551&oldid=67557391 with this edit a second time]. I will not revert a second time.

I find this disruptive as the user has removed the entry twice so far making the individual analysis of every image difficult. The list would have made it possible for the discussion of individual images to be more visible. This is the purpose of COM:DEL. Alternative method is individually nominating 703 files one at a time with 703 new entries to com:del which in my view would be very disruptive.

--<small> [[User:とある白い猫/11|とある白い猫]]</small> <sup>[[User talk:とある白い猫/11|ちぃ?]]</sup> 15:43, 26 February 2012 (UTC)

:See [http://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Commons%3ADeletion_requests%2FTemplate%3APD-Afghanistan&diff=67557391&oldid=67557050 here]. Stefan4 agrees as well that the list is out of place there. I must point that so far there's only a single user proposing to delete that template, which in fact was kept with large consensus two times before. I must point as well that even if there are files with that licence without enough author info, that's not a problem of the license itself but of each individual file, and this licence is not more subject to insufficient info than any other random one. I pointed him that he may tag images without such info '''on a case by case basis''', which is not the 703 files of the whole category. [[User:Cambalachero|Cambalachero]] ([[User talk:Cambalachero|<span class="signature-talk">talk</span>]]) 17:49, 26 February 2012 (UTC)
:I must point as well that mass deletion requests to purge copyright violations from a group of images (such as a user's uploads, a certain category, or in this case all images using PD-Afganistan) are only accepted if there's an actual evidence or reasoning to go on. For example, a user with 20 confirmed copyright violations and 10 remaining suspected images, or a portion of US WWII photos tagged with PD-1923. If no such reason is provided, then there will be no mass deletion.

Good morning,


Dronebogus reported my post as porn. I point out images that are more obviously porn and he [[Commons:Deletion requests/Files uploaded by NuManDavid|started name calling in bad faith]] [[User:NuManDavid|NuManDavid]] ([[User talk:NuManDavid|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 03:03, 14 May 2024 (UTC)

Bonjour,
:Hi russavia, thanks for your comment. What I want is stated right at the start.

But then [http://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Commons:Requests_for_comment/PD_review&diff=prev&oldid=67714635 this] is out of line. Removing discussion because it's 'heated' is equivalent with trying to channel it in the direction that one wants it to go. Such moves, '''especially during the heated discussion''' are very contravercial, and should be avoided wherever possible. [[User:Beta_M|VolodyA!

Sachant qu'il y a des personnes de tout bord politique à l'intérieur.
:::It would help if you quoted the full edit summary: ''move heated '''meta discussion''' to talk, keeping quote of materially relevant part'' [emphasis added]. All the comments moved to talk were because they were disruptive, or responses to those comments which added nothing to the discussion of the RFC subject. Moreover they were almost entirely ''meta'' comments (complaining ''about'' the RFC or the Commons policy it's based on, not ''participating'' in it). Moving these comments was necessary because such disruption should not be tolerated. I tolerated quite a bit, but when Saibo came back ''again'' with the same [https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Commons%3ARequests_for_comment%2FPD_review&diff=67389998&oldid=67355572 disruptive comments], it was too much. After those comments a previously active discussion had no contributions for a week, and a causal element cannot be ruled out. But whether the disruption succeeded or not, there is no doubt that Saibo ''intended'' to stop the RFC achieving anything, and by definition that is disruptive.

I eventually moved those disruptive comments to the RFC talkpage (quoting on the main RFC page the only part that actually was relevant to the RFC), and pointed out by email that if he wanted to change policy, he was welcome to try. In response he raised [[Commons:Administrators'_noticeboard/Vandalism#Arbitrary_discussion_deletion]].

Well, as a gesture of goodwill, I've created [[Commons:Requests for comment/Commons Abroad and related ideas]] to enable more discussion of how to reduce the need for Commons and other Wikimedia projects to comply with US copyright laws, an issue obviously of great concern to him. And I've mentioned it at [[Commons:Requests_for_comment/PD_review#Reducing_dependence_on_US_copyright_laws]]. Can we now remove [https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Commons%3ARequests_for_comment%2FPD_review&diff=67732186&oldid=67731922 this claim] from the RFC page, and draw a line under this silliness? [[User:Rd232|Rd232]] ([[User talk:Rd232|<span class="signature-talk">talk</span>]]) 18:00, 1 March 2012 (UTC)
:Again doublespeak. You are the one who demands this discussion - not me (like you try to put it here). I fail to see how this should be "goodwill" - to the opposite since you use try to coin (or establish/push it as solution) the term "Commons abroad" (that is a non-neutral page title). More comments on this on ''your'' RFC page.
:If you which to "draw a line" then restore the deleted discussion parts. --[[User:Saibo|Saibo]]&nbsp;([[User talk:Saibo|<small>Δ</small>]]) 19:57, 1 March 2012 (UTC)
::Well there goes ''that'' olive branch... Look, I'm not coining or "pushing" anything. "Commons Abroad" was coined by Dcoetzee [[Commons:Deletion_requests/All_files_copyrighted_in_the_US_under_the_URAA#4_-_Commons_Abroad|in the URAA DR]] (as far as I know) as a perfectly reasonable handle for the idea of hosting files outside the US, where they might not be subject to US copyright laws (though it's probably not that easy to really dissociate WMF from such a non-US-based Commons). The fact that you cannot seem to get your head around the fact that Commons is hosted in the US and run by a US organisation and subject to US laws is not ''my'' fault: I've tried to explain it to you. And I've raised the RFC I previously suggested you start, because it gives you (and others who were interested, the DR had plenty of activity) a chance to discuss whether there is a way for Commons (or at least other Wikimedia projects) to host content currently subject to US copyright restrictions. [[User:Rd232|Rd232]] ([[User talk:Rd232|<span class="signature-talk">talk</span>]]) 20:30, 1 March 2012 (UTC)
:::Again, I do not need that discussion - the content ever was and belongs to Commons. And if the WMF does see any need that hosting this public domain (except in one country) content does not fit their home jurisdiction ''they'' can think about what they want to do (that may be moving to another country). --[[User:Saibo|Saibo]]&nbsp;([[User talk:Saibo|<small>Δ</small>]]) 20:48, 1 March 2012 (UTC) But, ehm, that here is the wrong place to discuss that. --[[User:Saibo|Saibo]]&nbsp;([[User talk:Saibo|<small>Δ</small>]]) 20:50, 1 March 2012 (UTC)
::::I raised it with Jimbo in December, and the response made it clear that moving abroad wasn't something the WMF would consider at the moment (practicalities, plus moving to another jurisdiction means then being subject to ''those'' laws, which may be much more restrictive in some regards like free speech or fair use). The WMF position is quite clear, that copyright violations should be removed, and URAA creates a new class of copyright violations. Nobody likes it, but that's the situation. I wouldn't mind if you were energetically trying to ''change'' that somehow, but all your efforts seem to involve some form of denial of the facts. That denial (to bring this back ontopic) extends to disrupting attempts to deal with the situation as it exists, and that disruption is what I attempted to deal with. [[User:Rd232|Rd232]] ([[User talk:Rd232|<span class="signature-talk">talk</span>]]) 21:00, 1 March 2012 (UTC)
::::: I do not agree with your deletion attempts and you don't like that so you deleted my comments ("deal[t] with"). Of course my comment and even my presence is disruption from your point of view since it is the opposite of helping with your "effort" (quoted from somewhere else). Probably it is also disrupting by the community that you have very few people behind your back and willing to help you with this "effort", hmm? --[[User:Saibo|Saibo]]&nbsp;([[User talk:Saibo|<small>Δ</small>]]) 22:18, 1 March 2012 (UTC)
::::::I've explained my and your actions repeatedly, and engaged with your bizarre, unsupported and illogical position on Commons not needing to respect US law (which you'd previously tried repeatedly to inject disruptively into a discussion on how to comply with US law), and tried to feed that into a constructive direction (ways to reduce the impact of US law on what Commons wants to achieve). At this point you're just repeating yourself, with decreasing amounts of rationality, both here and elsewhere. Frankly, I'm starting to wonder how compatible with Commons adminship is the belief (which you apparently sincerely hold and cannot be shifted from) that Commons does not need to comply with US law. That's quite separate from the disruptive ''way'' in which you have expressed that belief, and then attacked me when I dealt with that - which is in itself a problem.

:::::::I am not really sure why you are commenting on my admin rights here, but, well: If you think that the community wishes that I, the disruptor, should not be an admin, then please make a desysop request (note that this is no recommendation you to do so).

::::::::No, a desysop request needs some prior consensus and anyway I don't wish to pursue it on the back of a single incident which hopefully can be settled fairly soon (even though your unwillingness to respect the laws applicable to Commons ''is'' rather concerning).

Note

  • Before reporting one or more users here, try to resolve the dispute by discussing with them first. (Exception: obvious vandal accounts, spambots, etc.)
  • Keep your report as short as possible, but include links as evidence.
  • Remember to sign and date all comments using four tildes (~~~~), which translates into a signature and a time stamp.
  • Notify the user(s) concerned via their user talk page(s). {{subst:Discussion-notice|noticeboard=COM:AN/U|thread=|reason=}} ~~~~ is available for this.
  • It is important to keep a cool head, especially when responding to comments against you or your edits. Personal attacks and disruptive comments only escalate a situation; Please try to remain civil with your comments.
  • Administrators: Please make a note if a report is dealt with, to avoid unnecessary responses by other admins.

Requesting mass deletion of @DeepstoneV: 's uploads.[edit]

I have nominated their recently uploaded pictures [1][2] for deletion due to ambiguous copyright information. And a cursory glance at their contribution reveals that almost all of their uploads are copyright violations in one form or another.

For example:

  • This is a zoomed in version of this file [3]
  • This is a higher contrast version of this [4]

To save the community's time i believe any willing admin should scrutinise their uploads. Ratnahastin (talk) 13:36, 10 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Dronebogus name calling and bad faith comment[edit]

Dronebogus reported my post as porn. I point out images that are more obviously porn and he started name calling in bad faith NuManDavid (talk) 03:03, 14 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Just an FYI, but COM:PORN is a thing and at some of the files in that DR clearly seem to cross the line. --Adamant1 (talk) 03:07, 14 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
BTW, you should also notify @Dronebogus: about this on their talk page per the text at the top "Notify the user(s) concerned via their user talk page(s)." Although I'm sure they know about it now since I just pinged them, but it's still good practice regardless. Thanks. --Adamant1 (talk) 03:22, 14 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Literally all I said was “I don’t know why you’re citing the only two quality videos of gay anal sex on Commons in contrast to your low-quality heterosexual pics, unless it’s to come across as homophobic.” (Emphasis retroactive) Instead of refuting or at least just respectfully disagreeing with them, you report me. This is a frivolous bad-faith request; if you don’t want your posts nominated for deletion as porn, or people to think you’re homophobic, don’t post porn or make comparisons that obviously could be read as homophobic (which I never called the user or even thought the user was).

Alice0815 (talk · contributions · Statistics · Recent activity · block log · User rights log · uploads · Global account information)

Indiscriminately mass-nominated a bunch of files with the same rambling, incomprehensible rationale; mostly posting this here so someone with more patience than will see this and speedy close all these frivolous, invalid nominations. Dronebogus (talk) 10:27, 15 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Not the first problem from this account. - Jmabel ! talk 14:51, 15 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I concur, seems to be a rambling form of en:WP:IDONTLIKEIT. See also Commons:Administrators' noticeboard/Vandalism/Archive_22#Alice0815.   — 🇺🇦Jeff G. please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 14:51, 15 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Jeff G.: same link I posted.
However, it looks like these are all pictures of one person, a cross-dressed man or MTF transsexual (can't guess from images how someone identifies), many with potentially disparaging file names, and this person seems to be saying it is them, that these were accidentally given free licenses on Flickr, that they are scrubbing them from Flickr and would like them scrubbed here. If I understand correctly, that would be a reasonable courtesy deletion request.
@Alice0815: if I have understood that correctly, please say so here and I would support a courtesy deletion request. Since these are all the same issue, this really should have been done as a Mass deletion request and you certainly should have written the rationale more coherently, but those aren't enormous issues.
I will ask Alice0815 not to make any further edits before replying here. If they abide by that, no need for a block. - Jmabel ! talk 14:59, 15 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

User:Hatomizinko3 Hatomizinko3 insults using photo description + Multiple account operation[edit]

This is a story in the Japanese version, but I wasn't sure where to report it, so I decided to report it here.Hatomizinko3 used the photo description to insult me ​​for posting a photo taken with an old camera. I warned him in a user note on the Japanese version of Wikipedia, but he not only recruited me, but also insulted me by saying that the quality of the photos was poor. While we were discussing how to respond, he threatened to find me and told me he didn't care if I was blocked because he would keep posting pictures on the commons. He runs another account on Commons called Hatomizinko. ジョンドウ (talk) 15:44, 15 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@ジョンドウ: when you posted here, you should have put a notice at User talk:Hatomizinko3. I have now done that for you. - Jmabel ! talk 18:24, 15 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
At File:ジャスティンミラノ 皐月賞 優勝時.jpg, according to Google translate, the original caption "EOSKissX4ごときでとられた写真を貼るんじゃねーよ" means "Don't post photos taken with something like EOSKissX4." @ジョンドウ: I'm not immediately sure why that is supposed to be an insult to you in particular. - Jmabel ! talk 18:28, 15 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Not sure what you mean by "recruited," that word makes no sense here.
The remark here seems a bit out of line, especially the apparent obscenity of "クソ面白いです, " which I suspect is more extreme in Japanese than its English equivalent. But that is on ja-wiki, not Commons. Similarly for the last link: again, a bit rude, probably particularly unacceptable in Japanese, but I don't see anything that amounts to a threat to "find you." - Jmabel ! talk 18:35, 15 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The word "ごとき" is a word that looks down on the subject and has the meaning of discriminating against old cameras.I don't think it's acceptable to make comments that discriminate in editorial policy because the camera is old. Intimidation refers to the part where both parties "meet and talk" knowing that each other will be at the racetrack. He feels that a person can be identified by the camera model. ジョンドウ (talk) 23:23, 15 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Malversation[edit]

Bonjour, Un contributeur juge une personne d'extrême-droite alors que c'est une liste citoyenne composée de 81 personnes. Sachant qu'il y a des personnes de tout bord politique à l'intérieur. Gauche radicale, gauche, communiste, droite, centre, etc...

Il ne s'est même pas renseigné sur toutes les personnes présentent mais affiche que tout le monde est d'extrême-droite. Pourriez-vous y remédier ? Car c'est de la discrimination pour les 80 autres personnes.
