I was a bit puzzled by your block of Liftarn, since it was I who tried to correct the categories of Latuff's cartoons. The truth is I wans't aware of the size of the problem and my action was a good-faith attempt of starting a productive discussion and reach a consensus. Now that I have started a dicussion in Village Pump, do you think it is necessary to keep Liftarn's block? -- [[User:Alvesgaspar|Alvesgaspar]] ([[User talk:Alvesgaspar|<span class="signature-talk">talk</span>]]) 13:41, 4 October 2010 (UTC)

:Based upon past experience, now that this issue has popped up again, I have little hope that some of those involved will be able to resist continuing to play around with the categories despite there being appropriate places for them to discuss it. I hope that eventually they might decide to stick to discussing things properly but it doesn't seem we have reached that point yet.

As for Rocket000, like Alvesgaspar I don't recall months ago, as was the case with the three users concerned today, asking them repeatedly to stop edit warring and discuss things.

Dear Sir:
Hi, I'm asking this to you because you've been commenting on her talk page recently, and I don't think there's any official procedure for such a case. The two first threads on her talk page are copyright violations, and should be deleted. I know it's a bit delicate, because the tension level is high already, and it could be wrongly interpreted, but I don't think we can just leave it and pretend it's cc-by-sa/GFDL licensed. If you don't want to do it, just let me know and I'll ask someone else. Thanks. –[[User:Tryphon|<span style="color: green">Tryphon</span>]][[User talk:Tryphon|<sup style="color:black">☂</sup>]] 18:10, 6 October 2010 (UTC)
:You are of course correct about this. I had noticed the text but overlooked the potential copyright issue. I've removed it and suggested she should avoid such extensive reproductions of copyrighted material. Hopefully this issue is now resolved but I'll see if she suggests any other options for dealing with these concerns.

My colleagues and I at the Canada Aviation Museum are completing a text panel that will go on display for an event on October 17th. We are looking for photos of the Boeing Fuel Cell Demonstrator Airplane and came across one of your photos (http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/1/1c/Boeing_Fuel_Cell_Demonstrator_AB1.JPG). Would it be possible to obtain a version (4 to 5 Megs?) of this image that could be shown to our designer? If such an image was available, would it be possible for you to send it to mmccullough@technomuses.ca and abrett@technomuses.ca, as soon as possible? I can only apologise for the tight deadline.
== way out of line ==
Respectfully,
I think you are way out of line for the 6 month block of mbz1. What exactly is the precedent for this? Six month block because she said what she feels to be true, and there are many who feel the same way? This is a BIG BROTHER kind of block. Would you do the same to a Muslim who felt that another user was putting up "Islamophobic" and said it stinks? Well, we don't know, but I would guess not. Would you do the same if a black person complained that there was a caricature of blacks put up that wasn't labeled as a caricature? Maybe you wouldn't agree with him but I don't think SIX MONTHS? Maybe the first block but the SIX MONTHS ''because she disagrees with you about what she considers [[w:antisemitism|antisemitic]]''? So you are banning her for SIX MONTHS for what she ''might'' do or say in the future. Sorry but I am really outraged at this!

:It's not six months for disagreeing with him. It's six months because she has been warned over and over and over to tone down the way she talks to people about the subject. She was banned for a week for insulting someone who, <s>I fully admit, is a complete jackass,</s> but does not seem to understand, even after said block and numerous others, that this behaviour is not acceptable here. This is not the first block, it's the fifth in four months, the seventh in the past year, tenth overall (twelfth if you count her own requested blocks). How many more blocks do you want? She is incapable of working in this topic, but will not accept a topic ban voluntarily. Therefore, as she cannot work with others, she is being disruptive to the project, and as a policy we ban those who are disruptive and are unwilling to change. Usually for longer than six months. -''[[User:Mattbuck|mattbuck]]'' <small>([[User talk:Mattbuck|Talk]])</small> 03:02, 8 October 2010 (UTC)

::Don't know how often this user checks in here, so I figured I'd try to answer your question. The photo looks to be the full size original resolution.

::You may find it anything you like. Mbz1 is not the only user in the world who believes that Latuff's cartoons are antisemitic, and crudely so at that. Numerous other editors have complained that it is anti-Israel and anti-Jewish propaganda and there are well-accepted sources that say so. But the only sin on the Commons seems to be to suggest that anyone or anything might be antisemitic, which seems to be very much worse than actually ''being'' antisemitic, which, according to many here, does not even seem to be a possibility. This is nonsense, of course, since there is very much antisemitism now everywhere, with most Jews feeling that it is almost as bad now as in the leadup to WWII, if not worse, because it is so generally accepted, and not recognized for what it is. That led to a lot of dead Jews, so many of us just happen to be a bit sensitive to that. Perhaps you would like to ban me as well for sharing Mbz1's opinions? Indeed one of her blocking admins said that it was "inappropriate" to bring up the Holocaust or WWII in virtually any venue here. That being the case, I think ''all'' WWII or Holocaust related images on Commons should be removed since one cannot discuss them, and that would include Latuff's stuff. And sure it is about disagreeing. She did not insult anyone, by the way. She insulted "those who put up antisemitic images" -- she did not name anyone. If that person you freely call a "complete jackass" identifies himself as one who is putting up antisemitic images, then he can rightly take it as personal. If he doesn't feel they are antisemitic images, then how can he be offended by Mbz1's comment? You see, there was no personal attack, only an interpretation made by others. Pure insanity.

I have to say I'm surprised to see this. Did you gain consensus for this or was it based on your judgement alone? The discussion at COM:AN/U seems to have petered out before reaching a conclusion to block Mbz1 for 6 months... Thanks. ++[[User:Lar|Lar]]: [[User_talk:Lar|t]]/[[Special:Contributions/Lar|c]] 03:35, 8 October 2010 (UTC)
:I hope my efforts in trying to address Stellarkid's comments aren't wasted. I'm concerned since he(?) has been very quick to misrepresent the reason for the block here but I will try nevertheless. It certainly isn't "because she said what she feels to be true" but how she has disrupted Commons by her behaviour including attacking editors who disagree with her. You ask whether I would block a Muslim user who might say someone was uploading Islamophobic content and like in this case, I wouldn't, it takes more than that. I have dealt with those Muslims who, like Mbz1 has done here, have crossed the line regarding images of Muhammed which the object to on Commons or Wikipedia and that will have included blocks.
:Stellarkid suggests I am "banning her for SIX MONTHS for what she might do or say in the future" and that is correct. Blocks are not meant to punish users, they are meant to prevent Commons from further disruption. As I explained in my comments to Mbz1, I have seen similar behaviour continue since about December 2008 and despite numerous warnings and blocks, Mbz1's [http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Mbz1#Before_you_let_my_block_to_expire "Before you let my block to expire"] comments provide no indication that this behaviour will end, in fact she even states that "I cannot promise I would never again use the language I used at kuiper's talk page".
:Regarding Lar's comments, this is a personal judgement rather than an assessment of consensus of any recent discussions. I come at this having taken a period of time out from involvement with this situation and so aren't aware nor participated in relevent discussions from the past few months. Having returned to look at what has been going on, the block is a response to concluding that it seems very little has changed and the view that some decisive action is needed here to break out of the continuous pattern of similar problems. I note that Mbz1, has I think you have suggested, has raised the possibility of a topic ban to try to deal with this. As I've explained, I am not completely comfortable about that because I don't like the idea of saying she cannot discuss issues she cares about but her great photos are welcome. Mbz1 has noted however that in the case of a topic ban it would be for her to decide whether she still wants to contribute her images in those circumstances so this is an idea I'll look to explore in the next few days. For a topic ban to be effective it will have to be carefully devised and accepted by Mbz1.

::I'd like to see consensus sought for whatever is decided, as this is a long term to unilaterally impose. ++[[User:Lar|Lar]]: [[User_talk:Lar|t]]/[[Special:Contributions/Lar|c]] 12:17, 8 October 2010 (UTC)
* I also agree that a six month's block is way too much. If the purpose of the block is to 'cool down', then one month is more than enough; if it is considered that Mbz1 will never be able to repress her bad temper, ignore the (implicit) offenses to her political convictions and stop the personal attacks, then a permanent block is the logical solution. But a broad consensus has to be reached before making drastic decisions, and Mbz1 should be listened to in the process. On the other hand, I firmly believe that a closely related subject has also to be solved in a fair way, if we want to reach a stable solution. I'm of course referring to the categorization of anti-semitic material, in special to Latuff's cartoons. In my opinion, either those images are deleted or properly categorized. The politically correct solution of avoiding the controversial categories is a non-soluction that only reflects our incapacity to solve the problem rationally and will cause further ressentments to one of the factions (and joy to the other). -- [[User:Alvesgaspar|Alvesgaspar]] ([[User talk:Alvesgaspar|<span class="signature-talk">talk</span>]]) 14:24, 8 October 2010 (UTC)
*:Regarding the Latuff categorisation, I don't see how deleting them if we can't manage to categorise them is a solution. It is really just throwing our hands up and saying that stirring up arguments about categorisation is a legitimate alternative to properly convincing the community that content should be deleted. As I see it there are two main groups causing problems here. There are those who let their personal opinions about the images get in the way of discussing proper categorisation and I think there are probably some who constantly see stirring up the issue as a good alternative to convincing the community that they should be deleted. I don't see how that is a genuine solution to this problem not least because it involves us damaging the integrity of Commons as a repository for freely licensed content for our sister projects.
*:As for Mbz1's block, perhaps it should be indef since it currently doesn't seem like any change in her behaviour is on the horizon. By only blocking her for six months I'm being optimistic, perhaps overly, that maybe things will change. As I've explained above, an alternative is perhaps a topic ban of some sort which Mbz1 herself has offered up as a possible solution. Like I say above, I'll try to work with Mbz1 to see if this might be feasible. I think the time has come now that this has run on so long to stop having grand debates about this and start taking some action to try to do something about it. It is unfortunate but it seems that most discussions relating to this, and I can understand why, end up getting distracted by arguments about the Holocaust and similar as if that some how excuses the behaviour. Mbz1 herself seems to have previously acknowledged that this is a subject where she struggles to keep her emotions from getting the better of here. A 6 month block is not trivial but as I've said, something needed to happen. Whilst I can understand why some are critical of what is a quite dramatic action, what we really need here is suggestions of possible alternative solutions. I am sceptical whether trying to open this up for discussion to find consensus would be effective. Experience has shown that it is unlikely. Now is the time for some bold action to try to sort this.

:::The only reason that you (the universal you) are even ''considering'' the characterization of the Latuff propaganda as antisemitic is due to Mbz1's continued agitating on the subject. This is what you are calling "disruptive behavior." Otherwise the status quo would be maintained, and there would be no discussion of this issue whatsoever. What you see as a response to "disruptive behavior," others see as an attempt to silence an important POV. There is no reason whatsoever not to work at coming to some resolution of this problem, but it will never be achieved by banning users, especially such productive users as Mbz1, which in effect sweeps the problem under the rug until it bubbles up again at some future time by other users, at which time you will have to ban more users, or make a rule that you cannot speak of things like Holocaust or WWII or antisemitism because it is "inappropriate." It is exactly appropriate for the Latuff cartoons. If you ''do'' decide to permit discussion on whether or not something can be characterized as "antisemitic," I certainly hope you allow, no, '' encourage,'' Mbz1 to have a voice in it, ban or no ban. [[User:Stellarkid|Stellarkid]] ([[User talk:Stellarkid|<span class="signature-talk">talk</span>]]) 16:36, 8 October 2010 (UTC)
::::I think it is a bit much to suggestion "only reason that you are even ''considering'' the characterization of the Latuff propaganda as antisemitic is due to Mbz1's continued agitating on the subject". That is complete nonsense. The reality is that the more people are attacked by Mbz1 et al for not simply accepting whatever they say the more people will be less inclined to take what they say seriously. I think we've gone beyond the point where we should keep trying to normally categorise these images now but you will have seen perhaps how on various occasions I've argued for and against categories like the antisemitism one. I've always been open minded with regards to these issues. I don't think I've ever agreed that all Latuff images should be characterised as antisemitic though but unfortunately definitions of terms such as that are themselves disputed so that is part of why I think trying to categorise based upon such terms is unwise. It is quite lazy in my view to suggest this is about silencing a POV. I think a more detailed look at the situation here would reveal that, whilst I have been open about my own opinions, I have acted fairly to deal with users who I conclude are disrupting Commons regardless of whether they agree or disagree with me. That I've managed to [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk%3AAdambro&action=historysubmit&diff=366429414&oldid=366186566 be accused] on Wikipedia of writing "israeli propoganda" whilst at the same time others make veiled suggestions that I'm being antisemitic would seem to suggest I'm managing to stay neutral about these things. When you are neutral unfortunately you get attacked as being biased by those people at both sides of the argument. [[User:Adambro|Adambro]] ([[User talk:Adambro#top|<span class="signature-talk">talk</span>]]) 17:17, 8 October 2010 (UTC)
:::::Then whom exactly did she attack when she left a message on Kuiper's page saying that people that uploaded antisemitic pictures to WM stink? If she had left that message on ''my'' page I wouldn't have considered it a PA. If Kuiper or someone else did not feel that the pictures were antisemitic then he should not take offense either. ''Someone'' took offense, even though apparently Kuiper himself did not take it up for consideration, though unsurprisingly thinks the block is warranted. Another admin wrote on Mbz1's page that it was "not appropriate" to discuss the Holocaust or WWII when that is what Latuff does in his cartoons all the time, with Nazi symbols plastered over Israeli symbols. Cartoons and caricatures talk. Boats with Holocaust victims are likened to Palestinians, Gaza is likened to Auschwitz, and his cartoons win prizes in Holocaust Denial contests, but we are not to discuss Holocaust of WWII or say that a cartoon is antisemitic, or that it "stinks" to put up antisemitic cartoons. We may apparently call people "complete jackasses" and tell them to "f*k off" and that isn't a PA. Re: the fact that you have argued both "for and against categories like the antisemitism one"-- I can't do anything with that. But of course you consider yourself quite "open minded and neutral". Don't we all? I also stand by the fact that Mbz1 was blocked because you disagreed with her. You clearly believe that her concerns regarding antisemitism are overstated and disruptive. She does not. That is the crux of the disagreement as I see it. I suggest that if you are really "open-minded and neutral" as you say, you will bring this up for discussion again quite frankly per Lars, above. Or simply rethink this block altogether. [[User:Stellarkid|Stellarkid]] ([[User talk:Stellarkid|<span class="signature-talk">talk</span>]]) 03:00, 9 October 2010 (UTC)

However, regarding [[:File:Anti-Islam.jpg]], I think it is important to look at the context. An apparently new user turns up and uploads an image whilst referring to the controversial [[:File:No Israel.svg]] and then as soon as it is deleted launches an attack on the admin responsible suggesting they are racist and antisemetic and then using various new user accounts and IPs to continue the abuse here and elsewhere. Then the other issue is the image they upload and its filename. It isn't immediately obvious why the opposite of [[:File:No Israel.svg]] is "Anti-Islam".

Hi {{PAGENAME}},
I hope you didn't protect this due to my little exchange with Malcolm. I mentioned I was done commenting in my last comment. I feel uncomfortable with having said the last thing before protection. Please reconsider. [[User:Rocket000|Rocket000]] ([[User talk:Rocket000|talk]]) 22:46, 11 October 2010 (UTC)
I'm writing to you because your bot {{user5|AdambroBot}} is about to be de-flagged as a result of inactivity.

Hi Adambro,
Feel like removing [http://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Commons:Featured_picture_candidates/File:Sunset_with_Cirrus_clouds_at_Land%27s_End_in_San_Francisco_.jpg&diff=prev&oldid=45300886 kuiper trolling from my image nomination]? The nomination was opened for 5 days, kuiper never voted on it before today trolling, which came just a few minutes after lycaon filed a report about me at AN/U. This "vote" has nothing to do with the image. It is harassment, wikihounding, retaliation and trolling on its worse. I am not asking to block kuiper , but to remove his vote under such circumstances would be the right thing to do. I know he does not like me personally, but this should have nothing to do with the image.--[[User:Mbz1|Mbz1]] ([[User talk:Mbz1|<span class="signature-talk">talk</span>]]) 04:09, 22 October 2010 (UTC)
:[[Commons:Featured picture candidates]] seems to have become less about the image and more about the uploader. I don't think removing Kuiper's comment would do much to address what seems to be widespread problem. [[User:Adambro|Adambro]] ([[User talk:Adambro#top|<span class="signature-talk">talk</span>]]) 08:06, 22 October 2010 (UTC)
::Well, I believed you'd simply ignore my comment altogether, so thanks for responding to it! No, removing kuiper's vote that is an absolutely, no any shadow of a doubt was made to oppose me,not the image, will help the matter a lot, and it is the right thing to do. I agree, you have no power to remove all the problems around FP nominations, but it does not mean that this one should be left alone. Removing it, will mean we have one problem less. --[[User:Mbz1|Mbz1]] ([[User talk:Mbz1|<span class="signature-talk">talk</span>]]) 08:40, 22 October 2010 (UTC)
:::Whilst I feel that much of Kuiper's participation in nominations relating to your images is problematic, I don't wish to start removing his comments because I think it would open up a can of worms which I don't really want to get involved with right now. You are probably correct that his comment "was made to oppose me,not the image" but the problem I have is that there was nothing particularly uncivil about his comment so you're effectively asking me to enforce a ban of Kuiper participating in featured pictures nominations relating to your images. If we start banning people from voting who don't like you, are we then going to ban people from voting who may be influenced to support because they do like you? I think FPC needs completely overhauling. Ideally it would be possible to have a discussion about an image whilst hiding who the uploader is but that would probably require changes to the MediaWiki software so isn't going to happen any time soon unfortunately. [[User:Adambro|Adambro]] ([[User talk:Adambro#top|<span class="signature-talk">talk</span>]]) 11:16, 22 October 2010 (UTC)
::::IMO wikihounding and taking a revenge as in this situation is actually much worse than PA or incivility, but no worries. I made my request only for the record, and I've got a response that was anticipated. Regards.--[[User:Mbz1|Mbz1]] ([[User talk:Mbz1|<span class="signature-talk">talk</span>]]) 12:22, 22 October 2010 (UTC)
:::::If I was to remove Kuiper's comments, then what? Should I remove Lycaon's and Alvesgaspar's? What about anyone else who has opposed the featured pictures nomination of one of your images? I am sure that some are influenced by their personal opinion of you to oppose but I suspect some may be influenced by their personal opinion of you to support. Can you not see how I alone can't suddenly make featured pictures just about the image, not their uploader? What reasonably do you suggest I can do here to help? I currently don't see any practical way of addressing your concerns I'm afraid.

::::::Well, you've already done a lot just by talking to me, and maybe trying to understand. Of course some users support and/or oppose FP nominations partly due to their relationship with a photographer, but one should remember that every oppose vote could be overwritten only with two support votes. So opposes due to personal dislike of a photographer have 2 times bigger impact than supports due to personal liking of a photographer.
We thought you might like to know that we plan to make use of one of your photographic images on our new website browzz.uk.
::::::lycaon is a special case. That man has hated me for 2 years I believe, and I still have not a slightest idea how and why it all started. [http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Requests_for_checkuser/Case/Estrilda He used his sock (or undeclared alleged wife) account to double oppose my nominations], and was caught on doing this. Isn't this enough of involvement to stop him reviewing my nominations now?
Browzz.uk is a website dedicated to showcasing all things quintessentially British. We make use of photographic imagery from a number of sources: Pixabay, Wikimedia Commons, Flickr and Geograph, that make images available under public domain or Creative Commons licensing.
::::::kuiper, as we all know, loves to retaliate to editors he does not like. He retaliates to some by filing DR on their uploads, and he retaliates to me by opposing my nominations. He was blocked for retaliating to administrators. He promised to stop such behavior. IMO he should be blocked for a week every time he retaliates to somebody including opposing my nominations. IMO it is the only way to stop such behavior.
We are always very carefully to follow the licensing guidelines and so we do provide full attribution of all photographic images used, even those released under public domain - CC0. We also provide links back to where we sourced the image from, the contributing photographer’s profile page and, of course the Creative Commons license.
::::::Alvesgaspar will do anything including [http://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=User%3ALycaon&action=historysubmit&diff=33688655&oldid=33686969 edit warring], [http://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Commons%3AFeatured_picture_candidates%2FFile%3AA_beachcomber_is_touching_a_dead_whale_washed_ashore_at_Ocean_beach_edit_1.jpg&action=historysubmit&diff=44494846&oldid=44494780 dishonest reviewing],[http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons_talk:Featured_picture_candidates#The_same_or_a_different_image.3F dishonestly enforcing his own dishonest rules] to protect lycaon.
We thought you would appreciate the courtesy of letting you know this and we hope that our use of your photographic image meets with your approval. We will review and change images from time to time and we are extremely grateful to those who make their images available under license as we couldn’t afford to put a website together of this scale without these services.
::::::In the end I do not know what you could do about those users, but I do know that what they are doing to me is a cowardly, dishonest, the worse kind of harassment that is probably the hardest case to deal with.
The website is planned to go live from the 11th July 2016 onwards and we hope you like it and tell your friends about this great website where your photography has been showcased!
::::::And of course I have absolutely no problems with the users, who honestly opposing my images. I might agree or disagree with their reviews of my images, but I have no problems with those. Here's [http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Maurilbert#You_vote_on_my_image only one example of me dealing with honest opposes]--[[User:Mbz1|Mbz1]] ([[User talk:Mbz1|<span class="signature-talk">talk</span>]]) 14:19, 23 October 2010 (UTC)
