Could you maybe merge them with the Syriac cross or rename them to "West Syriac" or "Assyrian" cross? They aren't Ethiopian anyways. MotorolaBoy (talk) 21:40, 1 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

  Not done. I am not specialist of crosses, despite my name. I do not want to rename the file, because I am not sure, which kind of cross is it. Per COM:INUSE the file cannot be deleted. Taivo (talk) 09:27, 2 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

I really don't know how I could convince you. Maybe if I brought a primary source about the style of a west Syriac cross? And I neither know where nor how to. I just dislike it being named that as it's historically inaccurate and that symbol historically represented the Assyrian (Oriental Orthodox Christian) rite west of the Euphrates, whereas something resembling File:Eastern Syriac Cross.svg was used to the east. An actual Ethiopian cross would be File:Krest Lalibeli.png, which is used on the EN Wikipedia EOTC page. MotorolaBoy (talk) 10:20, 2 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

I am not the only person who can rename files. You need any file renamer here. Please open COM:RENAME about how to rename files and the page consists link to all file movers (currently 1635). Taivo (talk) 10:46, 2 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hi Taivo, in my view this image is both ineligible for copyright and too old for copyright. The PNG version should be restored. --Leyo 08:18, 2 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

  Not done. But I do not think so. Not made of simple geometrical figures. It can be too old for copyright protection, but for that either anonymous work or author's death more than 70 years ago must be proven. Of course you can make an undeletion request.

This 2020 discussion was closed as keep with a rationale from you that CC-BY-SA license is valid, because it has OTRS license.

I can't access the OTRS file - can I double-check with you that the original artist @strayrogue gave approval for GiraffeWorld to make a "close redraw" COM:DERIV drawing based on the original work, in that OTRS statement? Or was the OTRS just GiraffeWorld saying that they were releasing their own drawing under that licence?

(I'm surprised that the original artist didn't just release their own drawing as CC-BY, if they were happy for someone to basically trace it and take the author credit, so I'm wondering if something got missed here.) Belbury (talk) 13:58, 6 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

@Taivo: Buenas,dime una opinión con respecto a este Commons:Village pump/Copyright#PD-Venezuela and older works?? AbchyZa22 (talk) 12:33, 20 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hello,

Over a year ago (on April 12, 2023), you forbade me to ping anyone or mention Wiktionary, as you wrote on my talkpage. Now that one year has passed, can you please lift those two conditions? You said I could make that request after one year, which has already passed.

And by the way, when it comes to your English, you really should note that:

• 1. The following question of mine
  Why exactly is "soliciting proxy edits on [my] behalf" (for any project for which I'm blocked) considered disruptive? See, the reason I did that in the past was to try to ensure that I wouldn't feel the temptation to evade a block. So if block evasion is disruptive, why would soliciting proxy edits on another WMF wiki be equally disruptive?? I do not plan to do that again, but I'd love to know why something done to prevent one's potential block-evasion is "disruption".
  should have been answered with (at the very least) the reply
  Asking others to edit a wiki, where you are blocked, is prohibited as abusing multiple accounts.

• 2. You wrote here that "Ya" – such word is not in my dictionary and even by context I do not understand, what it means.
  What dictionary were you even using? Seriously - why can you not use English Wiktionary to decipher that word?? Because that is what I would have done in your case.

• 3. If you have reason to think or suspect that a Commons user is a monolingual English speaker, it might be best to have other people (I suggest fluent English speakers like Yann) to give them unblock-conditions in the future.

Lastly, two final questions:

• 1. Do you believe that Surjection was only concerned about my proxy-edit-soliciting last year because of his lack of expertise with the Wiktionary pages I wanted to edit, as I asked here? (Yes, Surjection probably thought it was also harassment, but let's ignore that for now.)

• 2. What, in your opinion, would be the best way for me to appeal my TPA being revoked on a different WMF project? In a related issue, I still do not know how I can possibly ask Surjection a question without him reverting it as "long-term cross-wiki pestering".

Shāntián Tàiláng (talk) 19:57, 22 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

1. OK.
2. en:Johannes Silvet, "Inglise-eesti sõnaraamat", 5th edition. 2 volumes, circa 80 000 words. Publisher Valgus. 1st volume Tallinn 1991, ISBN 5–440–01310–5, 2nd volume Tallinn 1992, ISBN 5–440–01311–3.
3. Maybe, but you understood me enough well anyway.
4. I have no opinion on this question.
5. I thought, that such blocks should be appealed in Meta, but I could not find a proper place there. You can search yourself as well. The problem is in Wiktionary, which has own administrators and procedures, so normally requests must be made in Wiktionary user talkpage, but as your talkpage access is removed, it seems to me, that there's nothing you can do. You do not know, how to ask Surjection a question – I do not know that either. Taivo (talk) 10:44, 23 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

   Personally, if I were you, I would ask Surjection something like this:
   "Hello, do you think there's any way that Shāntián Tàiláng can send you a message (or ask you a question), without him pestering you? I am worried that he won't be able to communicate with you at all, if you keep reverting his messages. One day, he might genuinely need your input on a topic. So how would you want him to communicate with you, if that were the case?" Shāntián Tàiláng (talk) 15:52, 23 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

I do not ask that due to two reasons: at first I am not worried at all and at second I am not interested in it. Taivo (talk) 07:57, 24 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
