Left-to-right mirror of deleted File:Siaka Probyn Stevens.jpg. Government images are not automatically public domain in Sierra Leone (per Commons:Copyright rules by territory/Sierra Leone), this photo is undated and if taken or first published after 1971 it is still in copyright. Needs some evidence of date of publication. Lord Belbury (talk) 10:36, 18 February 2022 (UTC)
- User:Lord Belbury You are going all out to kick me along with all my contributions out of Commons for good. You're extraordinarily looking for all kinds of justifications to delete my uploads. Why don't you just try to delete all of them and best try to block me. I really can't understand why you're so desperate going after me. I told you whatever you do now has zero impact on me because I have given up on disputing you. You won. Anytime I raised my voice to speak you took another deep into my uploads and account. I'm done. You tried and even deleted some of my OWN PHOTOS I TOOK in addition to even some that are not copyrighted. I'm very much frustrated you practically drove me out of Commons. Not sure I will ever have the courage to upload anything anymore.
- If anyone out there could help me delete everyting I ever uploaded I will very much appreciate it. Thank you! Hassanjalloh1 (talk) 13:51, 18 February 2022 (UTC)
- Nearly all of your uploads have now turned out to be photos that you've found on Facebook or Getty Images and falsely claimed to be your own work, some of which have been flipped left-to-right (by you?) even to the point of geographical inaccuracy. File:Freetown fuel tanka fire.jpg was a Facebook hoax which you perpetuated by adding to Wikipedia claiming that the photo was your own, where if you'd said where you'd got it other users would have given it the scrutiny it deserved. So yes, this kind of thing can and should be kicked out of Commons, and I can see now why you got so angry when I started checking the sources of your files a couple of weeks ago.
- I'll look into starting a discussion about getting your remaining uploads deleted, it doesn't look like there's much left. --Lord Belbury (talk) 14:03, 18 February 2022 (UTC)
- You are basically targeting me because the moment you started going after me I knew we had a previous dispute on Wikipedia, as I checked. But like I said, do whatever you want to do now. I'm done. I can't waste any of my energy defending my uploads anymore because, thanks to you, even photos I took have been wiped out. I don't see myself uploading anything to Commons anymore, thanks to you. Funny how you say the fuel tanka image was a hoax. Are you really serious??? You never watched the news, or saw the incident as reported. But anyway I don't want to argue anything anymore. Just try and delete everything left. I really don't have the energy for you anymore.
- You specifically targeted me - whether you're enforcing Commons policies or not. That's an obvious truth in this! And you won. Congratulations. I give up. You drove me out. Probably you should just get me out your mind now. And be rest assured you won't be worried about having to scrutinize any file from me, OK.
- I just believe that other editors out there can see whatever is happening between us. Hassanjalloh1 (talk) 14:35, 18 February 2022 (UTC)
- The image you uploaded as your own work was not of the Freetown explosion, it was a 2018 explosion in Nigeria that was going around on Facebook, wrongly described as being from Freetown. You did not take the photograph, but you found it somewhere and uploaded it claiming that it was your personal photo of the Freetown explosion.
- I don't know what "previous dispute" you're referring to, I just flagged a bunch of your wrongly-licenced uploads after I saw you'd uploaded a Getty Images photo of Virginia Giuffre as your own work a couple of weeks ago. You asked me to stop while you took this to admins, and when you did, they started flagging your uploads as well. I'm just helping to clear up the final few problem images. --Lord Belbury (talk) 15:05, 18 February 2022 (UTC)
Deleted. (Tip for anyone wishing not to be "targeted": be honest and accurate in your uploads and edits.) -- Infrogmation of New Orleans (talk) 18:04, 18 February 2022 (UTC)
