@鐵路1: Hi, and welcome. The original size and thumbnail page https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/5/55/New_Taipei_Metro_Danhai_LRT_Line_icon.svg say "This page contains the following errors:" and "error on line 15 at column 31: Namespace prefix inkscape for connector-curvature on path is not defined". I am sorry to inform you that you have triggered Special:AbuseFilter/290. The proposal to "Limit file overwriting to users with autopatrol rights" was accepted with many supports and one weak oppose 15:19, 23 September 2023 (UTC). After an implementation problem in phab:T345896 and testing, Special:AbuseFilter/290 went live with the Disallow action 09:35, 28 October 2023 (UTC). Please read MediaWiki:abusefilter-warning-file-overwriting. You may request COM:AP at COM:RFR when you think you are ready; having that should allow you to overwrite. You may also request an exception for a particular file at COM:OWR.   — 🇺🇦Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 13:53, 10 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, and welcome. I am sorry to inform you that you have triggered Special:AbuseFilter/265 by changing structured data file metadata like author or date. Such edits by anonymous users are considered to be vandalism; that is one of many reasons to create an account and log in (and in this case wait four full days after creation here). Also, if you already have an account, what is your account name? How do you know the year was 2006?   — 🇺🇦Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 14:04, 16 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@DrhSR: Hi, and welcome. I am sorry to inform you that you have triggered Special:AbuseFilter/153 by trying to cross-wiki upload png images as a new user, and ​ other filters. Such uploads of png images are not allowed at all. The following applies to each image. You indicated it's your own work. Usually when someone uploads a png image, it's a copyright violation taken from the web. Please upload the full-size original of it per COM:HR, including any metadata, but if you were not the original image designer or photographer, that person may need to post permission on their official website or social media, or send it via VRT with a carbon copy to you. Also, it will look fuzzy when scaled down (due to design decisions discussed in phab:T192744), so you may want to upload a jpg or svg version, too. If you can't get compliant licenses, the images may still be uploaded to English Wikipedia in compliance with en:WP:F because we don't allow Fair Use here. If you use our Upload Wizard instead, you should be able to avoid filter 153.   — 🇺🇦Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 23:28, 18 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Vincentdesgms: Bonjour et bienvenue. Vous essayez d'utiliser le préfixe d'espace de noms en langue française « Catégorie » au lieu du préfixe obligatoire en langue anglaise « Category ». Vous essayez également de créer des pages vierges.

Hi, and welcome. You are trying to use the French language namespace prefix "Catégorie" instead the mandated English language prefix "Category". You are also trying to create blank pages.   — 🇺🇦Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 16:18, 19 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Edit kind: I am trying to figure out how to publish this mini-biography I wrote about a very close friend of mine, who is a local living legend so to speak. It got blocked when I tried to upload it. Is this the best way to make this article a wikipedia article? That's what I am trying to do. I have never heard of "Wikimedia Commons"

@ReverendRobertMortimer: Hi, and welcome. I regret to inform you that you have triggered Special:AbuseFilter/281. Please read Mediawiki:Abusefilter-disallowed-pdf-new-user-upload again. In addition, you appear to have tried creating a non-gallery page in our mainspace, which we use for galleries. Special:AbuseFilter/122 worked as intended. We do not host encyclopedia articles, résumés, CVs, current ads, random advice, etc. here on Wikimedia Commons per COM:NOT.

@Faxel: Hi, and welcome. It was originally uploaded to Commons by File Upload Bot (Magnus Manske) after you uploaded it to dewiki.

Looks like the implementation of Special:AbuseFilter/290 ist defective. Transfer from xxwiki to commons should keep the "original uploaders identity" an not take the bot as new identity (strange idea to do so by the way).
& (page_first_contributor != user_name) should look over wiki borders. Faxel (talk) 11:25, 21 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Edit kind: i was undoing an edit (Special:Diff/818382101) to the French caption, which is unrelated to the file

the edit was blocked with the reasoning of: Do not change first line. It said "You tried to change the first line on a file page. The first line should always be a heading or a template. [...]"

Comments: One should be able to undo edits made to the captions. Mignof (talk) 16:24, 20 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hi, and welcome. I am sorry to inform you that you have triggered Special:AbuseFilter/303 by trying to fight vandalism in SDC. Such edits by new and anonymous users are considered to be vandalism. Until phab:T298672 is resolved, please do not try to revert vandalism in structured data on Commons as a new or anonymous user, just report it to COM:ANV. I rolled it back for you and warned the editor who made that edit.   — 🇺🇦Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 09:45, 21 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Edit kind: I am simply translating the text in the film. I was given the message "An automated filter has identified this edit as potentially unconstructive, and it has been disallowed. If this edit is constructive, please report this error." I should note that I was adding text from the opening captions which are in all-caps. When I used lower-case, the warning disappeared (although it's now no longer as faithful to the original).
