is available for this. - Administrators: Please make a note if a report is dealt with, to avoid unnecessary responses by other admins.
Delete this obsolete file
I would like File:Rutherford scattering geometry 3.svg. It is an obsolete, unused variant of File:Rutherford scattering geometry.svg. It's not a big file but it nonetheless wastes space on the servers. Kurzon (talk) 20:19, 5 August 2024 (UTC)
- @Kurzon: No, writing about it wastes space, but you still have time for {{G7}}. Deleted files are just made invisible to non-Admins. — 🇺🇦Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 21:59, 5 August 2024 (UTC)
- Fine. If Wikimedia becomes overloaded, that's your problem to solve. Kurzon (talk) 07:42, 6 August 2024 (UTC)
- @Kurzon: I suspect you are missing something. All deletions here are soft-deletes. The file doesn't go away; it just becomes invisible to non-admins. So it take up just as much disk space as before, plus even a tiny bit more that comes out of the deletion process. - Jmabel ! talk 22:46, 6 August 2024 (UTC)
- The file has 6 versions at 30 kB each. Call it 200 kB. At $1/GB, we are talking $0.0002-worth of storage. It is not worth the time to debate. Glrx (talk) 01:13, 7 August 2024 (UTC)

- Well I would say the file is still useful - having variants still provides flexibility. Also deleting files doesn't save storage space, it just hides the file from public view (admins can still view the file). —Matrix(!) {user - talk? -

Performance, more generally
Starting a separate section because this is only tangentially connected.
@Matrix: I completely agree with you that there is no performance issue at stake in this particular matter (retaining files) worth considering, but (slightly off topic) it is interesting to see that essay, because of course a lot of things about categorization in particular appear recently to be very driven by performance: the concern that some images or categories are in too many categories, the concern over the many category links that appear in a typical {{Wikidata Infobox}}, the very fact of us building so many intersection categories because we don't have a decently performing category intersection tool. So I question whether that essay is as applicable to Commons as it might be to en-wiki. - Jmabel ! talk 18:37, 7 August 2024 (UTC)
FYI. -- CptViraj (talk) 20:02, 12 August 2024 (UTC)
Please delete this photo (deleted twice due to copyvio), prevent it from being uploaded and block the author, to whom we have already brought it to the attention of plwiki ([1]). BZPN (talk) 11:53, 14 August 2024 (UTC)

Delete conversation
Someone reached out to me to request that I remove the geolocation of a photo; but then they posted on my talk page using their IP address. Could we delete the entire conversation in the interest of their privacy? And perhaps a more permanent delete of the geodata is also possible. Thanks, mr.choppers (talk)-en- 15:16, 15 August 2024 (UTC)
- I'll do this. —Matrix(!) {user - talk? -

Supress file description of Flickr import File:Mamang Sorbetero.jpg
File:Mamang Sorbetero.jpg may be an appropriately-licensed Flickr import, but its description isn't. It is a verbatim copy of lyrics of famous Filipino song Mamang Sorbetero by Celeste Legaspi, from 1979 (see w:en:Celeste Legaspi#Singles). The song and its lyrics are certainly copyrighted; the file description must be suppressed. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 02:43, 17 August 2024 (UTC)

Done Feel free to update the description. Regards, Aafi (talk) 03:51, 17 August 2024 (UTC)
