Requesting the undeletion of Khin Nyunt and Min Aung Hlaing image

edit

Greetings Ninjastrikers, This wikimedia commons photo of Khin Nyunt and Min Aung Hlaing, http://commons.m.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:KhinNyunt%26MinAungHlaing.jpg might fall into the claims of "copyright violations" or anything that you claim is a violation, I simply requested it to be undeleted since it's a historical image and requested to be undeleted for that reason. I think it's simply not a good idea to delete historical images from the website since it can be used for historical and for future purposes. KhantWiki (talk) 15:35, 7 March 2024 (UTC)Reply

@KhantWiki Hi, according to the uploader's remark, the photo is taken from Irrawaddy which gave credit of photo to CINCDS. The website CINCDS states its license status as Copyrights © 2018 All Rights Reserved by CINCDS. Wikimedia Commons only accepts free content and it will not host any copyrighted materials according to Commons's policy. That's why I marked the photo as copyvio. Being a historical image is not a good reason to keep or undelete a photo on Commons. NinjaStrikers «» 16:09, 7 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
Alright I understand the situation, Thank you for the clarification. I accept the decision regarding the copyright concerns since it's a copyrighted material and Wikipedia only allows free content and not the copyrighted content from the other webs that is not published under a free license.

@Ninjastrikers, Hello, @KhantWiki has received many warnings about copyright violation, but he doesn't care about those warnings and continues to do it repeatedly. See File:Nay Shwe Thway Aung in December 2018.jpg and Commons:Deletion requests/File:Nay Shwe Thway Aung's Official Portrait on May 2018.jpg And they've made inappropriate edits to numerous articles, such as [1]. Should we report this user to ANI? 45.132.235.204 (talk) 13:04, 22 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
@45.132.235.204 (talk) Where did I said that I don't care and do it repeatedly? I am aware that I received many warnings about it, it doesn't mean I'm careless about it. Adding "reliable sources" is deemed as "inappropriate edits" to you? That's absolutely ridiculous. Your reason for reporting me is quite stupid I must say. KhantWiki (talk) 16:48, 22 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
@45.132.235.204, if you believe this user is problematic, please report at COM:ANI as this is a case from Commons. NinjaStrikers «» 03:49, 24 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
As a fellow Burmese contributor here, I'm not really problematic to anyone for no reason and it's not what I wants to do on here. I remain focused on what I do and what I'm interested in which is contributing about the country that I am from, Myanmar. I'm making the platform and the coverage of Myanmar on Wikipedia much better. The case on the COM:ANI about me is immediately closed due to the IP user's allegations of me being problematic, which the Wikipedia admins don't really agree with. The IP user who reported me on COM:ANI also got banned by the administrator, and I'm left off completely free. In conclusion what they say is not always right, I'm not really problematic. Thank you.

The IP address was blocked because the IP user is utilizing an open proxy (via VPN) to hide their identity to avoid your insulting. It appears that this IP has reported you on Wikipedia's ANI, not on Commons' ANI. If the IP had reported you on Commons, you would have been blocked. This IP is not, in fact, opposed by senior editors. As a mentor of this IP, I strongly urge you to avoid causing problems on Wikipedia. You have been overly dramatic, and many comments have been made about your mistakes, even when you were in the wrong. I would advise you to upload photos from the VOA Burmese website, as it would greatly benefit Wikipedia. Adding too many references to articles can be problematic; please refer to WP:CITEKILL. Thank you. 1.47.2.126 (talk) 20:08, 29 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
@KhantWiki, I disagree with your statement, "I'm making the platform and the coverage of Myanmar on Wikipedia much better." I've noticed that you've been uploading copyrighted images and adding heavy-weight references to the articles. If you genuinely want to help Wikipedia, please consider expanding articles significantly, translating Burmese articles into English, or creating new articles. Merely adding numerous references or AI-generated content to pre-existing articles (created by someone) does not constitute a key contribution to Wikipedia. I hope you can learn from this. Thanks. 1.47.2.126 (talk) 20:20, 29 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
Hello, thank you for your advice on this. I do genuinely want to improve and help the Myanmar Wikipedia. I did stop over-referencing on the articles as the articles that you have seen with overefs are likely old edits of me that is not too long ago. I will also avoid causing problems from now as I'm just a contributor for my country on Wikipedia. I apologize for being over-dramatic and also being in the wrong. I do think about uploading VOA images that they are in the public domain. KhantWiki (talk) 20:30, 29 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
Thank you so much, @KhantWiki. We don't want to disagree with you. I can see you really want to contribute to Wikipedia, but some of your mistakes lead to confusion. However, everyone can make mistakes and learn from them. I'm really glad you made edits when there are very few Burmese editors. You can help by uploading images from VOA or old Burmese photos under PD-Myanmar. There are many images of notable persons on VOA Burmese. Sincerely. 1.47.2.126 (talk) 21:29, 29 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
@KhantWiki
1) Although you have a Good faith to improve the Wikipedia, your contributions (especially with photo uploading) are really problematic. As Wikipedia and Commons take copyright very seriously, you should double check the copyright status of your uploads if they are not your works. Your last upload is also a copyright violation. Before uploading someone's work, please be sure the copyright and source of the file (You can use reversed image search for it). As I assume you have a good faith, this is the last warning. If I find out one more disputed upload from you, I will not hesitate to report you.
2) Please avoid adding excessive multiple alias at wikidata items like you did in d:Q557313, d:Q41187431, d:Q3462649 and more.
3) Please do not use Machine Translate to add Burmese description like the one at c:File:Myint_Swe_at_a_public_event.jpg#Summary.

You're welcome. I can understand that you don't want to disagree with me and I can see your viewpoints and I can agree with that. I want to thank you for trying to make me better and now I'm learning quite alot from my mistakes and how can I contribute better on Wikimedia Commons while maintaining good faith on here. That's true that I'm the very one of the few Burmese editor who's actively contributing on both Wikipedia and Commons. I will take your advice and @NinjaStrikers advice very seriously and I look forward to completely avoid uploading copyright disputed photos to Commons. As for the copyright pictures that I uploaded on Commons, @NinjaStrikers I sincerely apologize and I understand that it is frustrating to clean up such many copyright disputed pictures, by doing so you have to give many warnings to the uploader of these images which is me. I must say this one thing to you clearly for you to understand, If my contributions with photo uploading are 'really problematic' why do I have a good faith on here and decide not to upload disputed pictures on Commons? You can only classify it as "really problematic" only if I keep on uploading these on Wikimedia Commons, so it doesn't matter here, I'm the opposite of 'really problematic' since I decided to stop uploading 'problematic copyright disputed' pictures and decided to upload copyright free pictures only. So, your word 'really problematic' does not apply to me here. 'Really problematic' would be a correct word if a user keeps on uploading copyright disputed pictures to Commons and decides not to improve. That doesn't apply to me. I denote to not upload copyright violations further again and such disputed pictures on here, as I see the consequences and impacts of uploading the stuff that breaks the copyright laws on Wikimedia Commons. I recognize the mistake of adding unnecessary aliases on Wikidata to many different pages of the individuals and would avoid doing it again. I now know that up to 10 to 15 aliases is considered enough for the aliases, if going up to more than 15, it could be excessive and too much. If I upload copyright disputed pictures again, I can suggest you doing your job which I completely understand is by blocking me since that's my mistake and my fault. But, again as I said earlier to you, I pledge to not uploading the copyright violations again here on Commons. Yours sincerely. KhantWiki (talk) 10:08, 30 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

Aspersions originating from the Myanmar User Group

edit

Hi there, I see you are listed as a person to contact for the meta:Myanmar Wikimedia Community User Group. At the Teahouse, the editor Hteiktinhein has claimed that "our leader in the Burmese Wikipedia Group mentioned that AirshipJungleman29 often challenges Burmese and Chinese editors in the past" and "If you write even a small negative comment about him, he’ll take it to ANI for a personal attack and lobby to get your account banned. So, no matter how angry you are with him, you have to stay quiet and respond politely" (a direct quote from the leader). Of course, accusations of misbehaviour without evidence such as this are aspersions from Hteiktinhein, but to make such allegations offwiki is certainly not something I would expect from any leader of a community group. Please let me know the Wikipedia username of this leader. Thank you. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 10:33, 14 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hello @AirshipJungleman29,
I apologize for any confusion or frustration caused by the statements you encountered. To clarify, there is only a public Burmese Wikipedia Facebook group, and no such private group exists with directives encouraging the behavior described. Additionally, there is a private chat group for Burmese Wikipedia; however, the user who made these claims is not a member of that group.
I am responsible for both the Burmese Wikipedia Facebook group and the Myanmar Wikimedia User Group, and I can assure you that no statements encouraging such behavior have been made in these groups.
If you have further concerns, please feel free to reach out. NinjaStrikers «» 12:08, 14 November 2024 (UTC)Reply
Seriously? I mean, the leader of our group is my mentor, but I never mentioned that I’m from the Burmese Wikipedia "Facebook" Group. There are many Wikipedia groups on social media platforms like X and Facebook, and I didn’t specify which one my mentor is part of. For the record, I see User:Ninjastrikers is an admin of a Facebook group and serves as an admin or bureaucrat on Burmese language Wikipedia. He and his community are focused solely on Burmese Wikipedia and are rarely active on English Wikipedia, so he has never encountered you here, past or present. If Ninjastrikers were my mentor, would he have had any issues with you in the past?
As for me, I only edit on English Wikipedia and have zero edits on Burmese Wikipedia. My mentor is a legend on English Wikipedia, and I never stated they are "Burmese" or anything similar. In fact, I don’t even know their nationality. You can’t assume my mentor’s origin; they mentor many Burmese and Southeast Asian Wikipedians. This is my private matter, so if you’re curious, you’ll have to ask God. Pls. Thanks. Hteiktinhein (talk) 20:08, 14 November 2024 (UTC)Reply
