Hello, I'm Fumikas Sagisavas. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions to Commons:Deletion requests/Files found with Data:Ncei.noaa.gov/weather have been undone because they did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Help Desk. Please stop adding disruptive threads to deletion requests!

@Fumikas Sagisavas: I don't see any edit in that discussion that was reverted. Let alone a "disruptive thread." So you can point out exactly what your talking about. Otherwise I'm going to have to suggest you stop leaving spurious messages on people's talk pages. Thanks. --Adamant1 (talk) 14:17, 11 May 2023 (UTC)

Warning

Hi, This is regarding this thread, but there were other similar issues before. You really need to change the way you interact with other contributors, and take into account critics by AFBorchert and others. Thanks, Yann (talk) 07:45, 25 May 2023 (UTC)

@Yann: I think I laid out why I started the ANU complaint pretty clearly and I don't see any actual criticism of anything I said there, and no Andy Dingley personal attack that I'm a net negative to the project doesn't qualify. So can you be more specific? Otherwise, it's kind of hard change the way I interact with people when the feedback about how I'm acting is just vague handwaving about personal grievances by people who are clearly just axe grinding. Thanks. --Adamant1 (talk) 07:50, 25 May 2023 (UTC)

Postal stamp related deletion requests

It seems you have started nominating files related to Latvian stamps for deletion. I assume you will do the same for some other countries. Could you please add these requests to suitable categories, similar to Category:Latvian FOP cases/pending‎, as there may be a need to review these deletions if we get further information (or use them as a reference regarding later uploaded files). I would suggest specific categories, but I am not familiar with the relevant category tree. –LPfi (talk) 08:16, 26 May 2023 (UTC)

@LPfi: Sure. I've actually been nominating images of stamps for deletion for a while now and it never came up. So I'm not really sure what categories exists for then or if there even are any, but I'll look into it when I have the time. --Adamant1 (talk) 08:24, 26 May 2023 (UTC)

Nothing to do with Latvia, but what about the German stamps that have been marked as not being PD since at least 2012. If you want to consider doing something significant concerning stamps then possibly consider those found in Category:German stamps review and Category:Deutsche Bundespost stamps but also read Commons:WikiProject Public Domain/German stamps review. In all I now see close to 9,000 stamps that might get deleted, down from about 10,000 some years ago. There may well be more in Category:Area stamps of Germany. However care needs to be taken as some licences may not be accurate as stated. There are also a few discussions on this topic to be found elsewhere. Ww2censor (talk) 10:44, 26 May 2023 (UTC)

I also found this m:Wikilegal/Copyright of Images in German Postage Stamps and its talk page m:Talk:Wikilegal/Copyright of Images in German Postage Stamps which seem relevant. Ww2censor (talk) 10:53, 26 May 2023 (UTC)

I've been slowly going through them. Unfortunately you can't just nominate something for deletion based purely on the URAA and I don't want to anyway because it's super convoluted and there's only administrator who seems to know it works. So I kind of got burned out on the whole thing. I'll probably get back to it eventually though. --Adamant1 (talk) 10:48, 26 May 2023 (UTC)

@LPfi: Am I remember wrong or did you create categories for deletion requests having to do with stamps of Finland when the guideline was changed? --Adamant1 (talk) 16:20, 26 May 2023 (UTC)

I don't think I did. I might have tried but not found how to get them neatly into the category hierarchy. I don't find any suitable close parent categories. –LPfi (talk) 17:23, 26 May 2023 (UTC)
