Harmonizing categories is forbidden; Criterion #4 is dedicated only for sets (one subject, one day, one author), one photo divided into many parts (Thames 1/100; Thames 2/100, etc.), Wikisource's books or for templates (BSicon and others). In such a case you can use Criterion #2 (meaningless name) or #3 (error, mistake). Wieralee (talk) 19:03, 19 April 2023 (UTC)

OK, I understand. Thanks for the explanation. Militum professio scriniarii (talk) 21:05, 19 April 2023 (UTC)

tagging duplicates

Hi Militum professio scriniarii, your way of tagging duplicate files for deletion is incorrect and results in unnecessary work for the processing admins and may even led to deletion of the wrong image. You need to tag ONLY the duplicate-file, which shall deleted, but NOT the one, which shall remain. Also the proper syntax is: {{duplicate|filename_of_the_image_that shall remain.ext}} . --Túrelio (talk) 07:41, 7 May 2024 (UTC)

Oh, sorry for my errors! Duly noted, and thanks for your guidance, best regards. Militum professio scriniarii (talk) 12:26, 7 May 2024 (UTC)

Renaming

Hi,

I see that you proposed some file to be renamed. I accepted one File:CARAT Brunei 2019 04.jpg but I declined others (File:171106-N-OU129-069 BRUNEI (November 6, 2017).jpg, File:CARAT Brunei 2019 01.webp, File:Royal Brunei Armed Forces Col. Sahat Hamzah.jpg) where the proposed new name is really too long, do you really need all these information in the file name? (precision like that belongs in the description).

Marine petrol stations => Marine fuel stations: please do not unilaterally make a change like this. Something like this should certainly have gone through COM:CFD. Category names are not about epistemology, they are about what something is commonly called. In this case, I don't think this was particularly wrong, but even as an admin I would not have made this move unilaterally. Please keep in mind that unlike en-wiki and quite a few other Wikpedias, "be bold" is specifically not one of the principles here on Commons. - Jmabel ! talk 13:41, 19 May 2024 (UTC)

Commons:FR#FR6

This is for bug fixes only. You probably want to use Commons:FR#FR3 ("To correct obvious errors in filenames, including misspelled proper nouns, incorrect dates, and misidentified objects or organisms"). Please read the whole page if possible: Commons:File renaming. Thanks and best regards, RodRabelo7 (talk) 18:53, 17 May 2024 (UTC)
