Likely sockpuppet of User:Jesús Gibb7: User:Tijuan FC

Tijuan FC (talk · contributions · Move log · block log · uploads · Abuse filter log appears to be a sockpuppet of Jesús Gibb7 (talk · contributions · Move log · block log · uploads · Abuse filter log. Although Tijuan FC has existed since 2023, it only became active last week, a few days after a mass deletion of files from Jesús Gibb7. The main account is a mostly vandalism account that has been uploading manipulated images with "Jesus Gibb" inserted into copyrighted photographs, as well as media related to Tijuan FC. The puppet account has more recently uploaded File:Balón de Oro 2022 Jesús Gibb.jpg, a photograph of Eden Hazard with the head replaced with "Jesus Gibb".

Inappropriate username

Turkmen talk 07:40, 23 October 2024 (UTC)Reply

  Not done. Org names are allowed on Commons, so long as they are not overtly promotional. Organizations may wish for attribution to be to their corporate name, for example, and an account with that name is one way to achieve that. — Red-tailed hawk (nest) 19:14, 25 October 2024 (UTC)Reply

MAL MALDIVE

A1Cafel (talk) 16:33, 23 October 2024 (UTC)Reply

I have replied to File:Portrait of King Charles III, 2024.jpg's nomination for deletion; see here [1], i uploaded it without noticing the notice on the source, and i have apologized, also i have replied to be deleted. Others, that had been nominated for deletion is uploaded by me before the block [block before unblock]. I belive i haven't uploaded anything copyright violated since then. Then, the file File:Anura Kumara Dissanayake 2023 (cropped).jpg is not an original upload by me, it was uploaded by User:Bunty456, i just cropped the image using croptool; also, i cropped it before the main file was nominated, so of course i did not know it was an vio. Next, the files i uploaded using {{PD-Maldives}} is not an copyright violation per https://old.majlis.gov.mv/di/download/2010-thinvana-dhauruge-bill/copy%20rite.pdf because, any picture/file taken before 2010 in the Maldives is in the PD per parliament.

  Done I don't see any message MAL MALDIVE in Commons:Deletion requests/File:Portrait of King Charles III, 2024.jpg. The above claim should be verified, but File:The Maumoon Foundation logo.svg is probably uploaded with a bogus license. Blocked. Yann (talk) 17:18, 23 October 2024 (UTC)Reply

File:US flag 49 stars.svg

It is about time that the protection should be removed because it has been years since it was first protected. I need to edit the categories and descriptions. SpinnerLaserzthe2nd (talk) 18:58, 24 October 2024 (UTC)Reply

  Not done This flag is still a highly visible image, and, oddly enough, in use in templates throughout the projects. The original reasons for protections still remain. You can still request edits on the talk page. Bastique ☎ let's talk! 23:16, 24 October 2024 (UTC)Reply

Reza Zaret (talk · contributions · Move log · block log · uploads · Abuse filter log appears to have been created to circumvent the block on Reza Tjjk (talk · contributions · Move log · block log · uploads · Abuse filter log, currently blocked for uploading obviously copyrighted comic book art. The similarly of the user names and the uploaded content (Marvel comic art, heavy on the Wolverine) makes the sockpuppetry pretty obvious. Adeletron 3030 (talk) 03:36, 27 October 2024 (UTC)Reply
