Speedy deletion of File:Essenger-Portrait.jpg

The page File:Essenger-Portrait.jpg has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This was done under section F9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the file appeared to be a blatant copyright infringement of https://genius.com/artists/Essenger. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition has been deleted. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use it — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

Please do not recreate the material without addressing these concerns, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If you think this page should not have been deleted for this reason, you may contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you may open a discussion at Wikipedia:Deletion Review — JJMC89 (T·C) 09:12, 18 February 2021 (UTC)

Profanity in Wikipedia articles

Moved to User talk:The Editor's Apprentice § Re: Profanity in Wikipedia articles

 – —TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 15:41, 7 September 2023 (UTC)

Hello TechnoSquirrel69, you recently censored an instance of the f-word in the article on Nightcore citing a opinion essay about profanity as your reasoning for the change. As the essay states in its first sentence, it does not dispute the policy that Wikipedia is not censored. I somewhat vaguely mentioned this policy in my edit uncensoring the f-word. Additionally, the essay you referenced only suggests avoiding the use of profanity on discussion pages, such as this one. Overall, in order to clearly and accurately communicate the information of the Nightcore article, I think the f-word should be presented as it was in the source, uncensored. Please let me know your thoughts and take care. —The Editor's Apprentice (talk) 05:35, 19 February 2021 (UTC)

February 2021

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for violating the non-free content policy, as you did at Draft:Mirror (Porter Robinson song).

If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.  — JJMC89 (T·C) 06:38, 20 February 2021 (UTC)

AfC notification: Draft:Mirror (Porter Robinson song) has a new comment

I've left a comment on your Articles for Creation submission, which can be viewed at Draft:Mirror (Porter Robinson song). Thanks! Robert McClenon (talk) 07:13, 20 February 2021 (UTC)

Request for unblock

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

TechnoSquirrel69 (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

---

Request reason:

To whom it may concern, I would like to request that my account be unblocked. I understand that I have been flagged for copyright violations for my use of an image on Draft:Mirror (Porter Robinson song). For that I would like to apologize. I have since read through Wikipedia's copyright policies and can assure you that I will not make the mistake again.

However, I am slightly confused, because I believe the block is in relation to two other images which I uploaded (that have since been taken down) that violated the copyright policies, and not the one on Draft:Mirror (Porter Robinson song). To my knowledge, I followed all the steps required for declaring the copyrights of an album/single cover. Would you mind informing me if I need to do anything else to correctly upload the image? Thanks in advance! —TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 02:17, 21 February 2021 (UTC)

Decline reason:

Declining per JJMC89's comment below. _signed, Rosguill ^talk 15:05, 14 April 2021 (UTC)

If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

Thanks, Rosguill! —TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 06:09, 16 March 2021 (UTC)

Hey Rosguill, it looks like JJMC89 isn't going to respond. I've looked on their page for any other way to connect with them, but there's no email or anything listed, and as you know, I can't edit their talk page. —TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 04:20, 14 April 2021 (UTC)

Rosguill didn't actually ping me. I am not inclined to unblock since your request states that you don't understand why you were blocked. You were blocked for repeatedly violating the non-free content policy by using non-free media (File:Porter-Robinson-Mirror.jpg) in a draft (Draft:Mirror (Porter Robinson song)). The other two images that you uploaded are copyright violations, but were not related to your block. — JJMC89 (T·C) 05:34, 14 April 2021 (UTC)

JJMC89, I now realize what the issue was, and I was not aware until now that images of that kind could not be used in a draft article, as that point is not mentioned specifically in the non-free content policy. Also, I just checked the editing history of the article and realized that I reverted your deletion of the image several times, and I would just like to clarify why I did that. At the time, I was not looking at the editing history and assumed that there had been some mistake while saving the draft or that I had accidentally deleted the image while I was editing the article, not that it had been manually taken down several times. My apologies for that, I did not re-upload the image that many times with the intention of making repeated copyright infringements. —TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 11:12, 20 April 2021 (UTC)

JJMC89, apologies for the repeated pings, but I would like to know if you would be willing to reconsider my appeal for unblock, or whether it would be in order for me to submit another request. —TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 10:04, 27 April 2021 (UTC)

The location restriction is criterion 9. It is also mentioned at Wikipedia:Drafts#Preparing drafts. — JJMC89 (T·C) 04:54, 27 April 2021 (UTC)

I understand why I was banned, JJMC89, and it won't happen again. Would you be willing to reconsider this appeal, or would it be alright if I submitted another one? —TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 10:04, 27 April 2021 (UTC)

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who accepted the request.

Request reason:

As per the messages above, I have discussed with the administrator who blocked me and clarified with them the reason for the decision. I now understand why I was blocked and will not make the mistake again. And so, I would like to request again for my account to unblocked. Thanks! —TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 09:29, 5 May 2021 (UTC)

Accept reason:

You have explained that you understand the policy about non-free content and will adhere to it. Please do so.

Thanks for reinstating my account, anonymous administrator, and thanks to Rosguill and JJMC89 for the clarifications. —TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 07:49, 12 May 2021 (UTC)

October 2022

Please don't change the format of dates, as you did to 2022 Morbi bridge collapse. As a general rule, if an article has evolved using predominantly one format, the dates should be left in the format they were originally written in, unless there are reasons for changing it based on strong national ties to the topic. Please also note that Wikipedia does not use ordinal suffixes (e.g., st, nd, th), articles, or leading zeros on dates.

For more information about how dates should be written on Wikipedia, please see this page.

If you have any questions about this, ask me on my talk page, or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Enjoy your time on Wikipedia. Same goes for spelling of "metre", etc. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 17:29, 31 October 2022 (UTC)
