I am fully agree with arguments for the deletion of the file and I approve it. Martin Baran (talk) 22:11, 28 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Of course you are, because you are the person who flag this file for deletion. :-) -- Jonesy talk 07:44, 29 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
And also the the only author and the only uploader of the photo, if you have forgotten. Moreover, do not forget to add that you are one of two registered users and one anonymous user who who are repeatedly damaging my work by political comments in Slovak Wikipedia. Are you really not able to stop even if I requested deletion of my photo? You have so many discussion forums on this topic on the Internet. My photo was deleted also from German Wikipedia though it had a neutral comment there because of you. Are satisfied now? Why have you chosen my work for your attacks? I am not interested in politics. All my contribution to Wikipedia and Wikimedia is politically neutral. Please stop damaging my work. I will continue to add to Wikimendia only flowers from High Tatras. I hope that people like you will not find an aggressive political context in connection with them. Martin Baran (talk) 09:50, 29 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
??? What the frak are you talking about? I only add some information which from my point of view is important in the context of unveiling of that statue. I don't understand why you are become such hysterical and flag this picture for deletion, but it's your right to do so. So be it.-- Jonesy talk 10:12, 29 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
May be that is the problem. I think that Wikpedia is not only about your point of view but about impartial and balanced points of view. Martin Baran (talk) 12:32, 29 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Whatever. -- Jonesy talk 16:34, 29 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Delete The statue depicts a historical situation of which verisimilitude is very fickle. Hardly surpisingly, the statue erection was strongly influenced by nationalismus and our work can also be easily destroyed or damaged by a couple of nationalists who use Wikipedia as a propaganda vehicle.

Given the facts that:

  • 1 Slovaks do not belong to the indigenous population of this city.
  • 2 It is not even certain if Svatopluk ever existed.

I am afraid that the description given by Nmate is unfortunately not based on facts and references but on a doubtful subjective opinion. The statue in my opinion do not depicts any historical situation. Please try have a look on it. Can you see a historical situation? Me not. The presence of Slavs at the current territory of the Slovak Republic in the 8th Century as well as the existence of Svatopluk I is sufficiently proved by historical documents and archaeological finds including Industriae Tuae addressed to Svatopluk I available at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Svatopluk_I. Using of a therm indigenous population of a city in connection with 8th century in the Central Europe is in my opinion propaganda itself. I am sad that my photo permitted a start of these chauvinism and propaganda contributions. I think that this discussion page should be about searching a response whether to delete the photo and not about spreading hate between nations. --Martin Baran (talk) 13:27, 2 July 2010
Of course I am not convinced by you. But it is O.K. I also think so that the Slovaks' origin is not an egregiously relevant thread at this photo deletion and it would be a barren debate otherwise.--Nmate (talk) 12:46, 2 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

 Keep - Nice photo that can be used by many projects not only by Slovak Wikipedia that is known for political bias and ownership of articles by small group of editors. --Dezidor (talk) 11:04, 14 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

 Keep - I do find it strange, if not puzzling, that the author wants to delete this photo because of political disputes in ONE wiki (with the political situation in Slovakia until recently, unfortunately, but that should not have been a topic here at all). I think it's a useful photograph for all projects, but especially for modern reception and (carefully sourced) criticism. Quality and licensing are OK, however, if the author does not want to change his mind or cannot respond to latest comments, I think it's time for one of the administrators to decide (it's been here for almost 3 weeks now). Just my 2 cents worth, 178.41.68.114 13:16, 16 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

 Delete Thank you very much for evaluation of my work. I am agree with the with the opinion that the photo could be useful in Wikipedia. I just don't want to see my name connected with political wars and distasteful comments. I am afraid that the user Jonesy unfortunately will never stop his vandal attacks against this photo and I don't want to spend my time by everyday verifying what new is thought up by him. I promise I will contribute to Wikimedia by other photos. I thank administrators in advance for their fast decision and I thank to everybody for understanding --Martin B (talk) 19:53, 18 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

A co se takhle, pokud je v tomhle s nima je nějaká řeč, domluvit s tamníma adminama na lokálním blacklistingu zde: http://sk.wikipedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Bad_image_list ? Pak by to šlo používat všude jinde než na sk.wiki. --Dezidor (talk) 21:31, 18 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I think it's a good idea. I'll try to do so. --Martin B (talk) 04:02, 19 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

 Keep As the user Jonesy from the Slovak Wikipedia declared that he would not use this photo in pejorative context, in assistance of one of Slovak Wikipedia administrators, I hereby withdraw my original deletion request. I am agree with the further use of this photo in all Wikipedia projects on condition that it will not be used in a context promoting intolerance and hate. I modified the permission accordingly. I thank all for their patience. --Martin B (talk) 10:33, 19 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
