U5 for multiple pages
[edit]Hello. My articles about Hong Kong transport was deleted under U5 but I didn't have a backup for it. Please can you provide the source for the following pages? I am planning to post these on other non-Wiki sites (aka outside Wikipedia).
- User:HingWahStreet/HK Transport Journal/Issue 1
- User:HingWahStreet/HK Transport Journal/Issue 2
- User:HingWahStreet/HK Transport Journal/Issue 3
- User:HingWahStreet/HK Transport Journal/Issue 4
- User:HingWahStreet/HK Transport Journal/Issue 5
My intention is to make a brief Hong Kong transport news that happened recently, but I didn't know Wikipedia is not the place for that. HingWahStreet (talk) 09:59, 19 July 2024 (UTC)
- I've provided you copies at the above URLs. These are valid for 1 week after which they will disappear. -- Whpq (talk) 11:14, 19 July 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks for that! HingWahStreet (talk) 12:23, 19 July 2024 (UTC)

New message from Beagall
[edit] You are invited to join the discussion at File talk:American drummer Uriel Jones.png § Contested deletion. I contested the speedy deletion request, as fair use is asserted. Beagall (talk) 13:56, 11 August 2024 (UTC)
User Tnrajab's uploads
[edit]I just tagged a bunch of files uploaded locally by Tnrajab with {{npd}}, but think that many of them (if not all) are the same as the files you and Hoary nominated for deletion at c:Commons:Deletion requests/Files uploaded by Tnrajab. Are they the same? My guess is that this might be someone related to Draft:Tareq Al-Sayid Rajab due to the choice of username and just thinks physical possession makes them the copyright holder of the photos. It might be possible that some are now PD for some reason (like the one with Thatcher and the one with Prince Charles), but that's going to take quite a bit of digging to figure out. -- Marchjuly (talk) 19:32, 11 August 2024 (UTC)
- I don't remember for sure but the self-portrait certainly rings a bell, and the others certainly have the same issues even if they are not the same images. You may wish to check with the deleting Commons admin to verify. -- Whpq (talk) 19:42, 11 August 2024 (UTC)
- Thank you for the ping, Marchjuly. My visual memory is disappointingly vague, but I can say that several, perhaps all, seem very similar to what I listed for deletion. I agree with Whpg. -- Hoary (talk) 22:39, 11 August 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks Whpq and Hoary for taking a look at these. Since I tagged the local files for speedy deletion per F11, things will be resolved one way or the other in a few days. -- Marchjuly (talk) 04:45, 14 August 2024 (UTC)

[edit]Is it better to tag NC files like this for speedy deletion per F3 or F9? -- Marchjuly (talk) 04:42, 14 August 2024 (UTC)
- Either works. I personally use F3 but it also qualifies as F9. -- Whpq (talk) 04:44, 14 August 2024 (UTC)
