OTRS

• Dual Release: "self|GFDL|Cc-by-sa-3.0-migrated"
• OTRS processed "PermissionOTRS|id=################"
• OTRS received but not sufficient "OTRS received|id=###|year=yyyy|month=month spelled|day=dd"
• OTRS issue "OTRS-talk|issue=tell what the issue is|otrs=###|discuss=no""
• OTRS text releases for EN Wiki:
  • Can be PD or CC-BY-SA (with dual-licensing encouraged)
  • Use "ConfirmationOTRS" on article's talk page, which has documentation on EN Wiki at Template:ConfirmationOTRS
  • Use the script on EN Wiki at User:Rjd0060/OTRS-Text.js to make this easier
  • Such permission emails often come in response to articles which have been blanked with "copyvio" tags which you can just remove/revert once we've got permission, or articles which have been speedily deleted and any admin ought to restore it for you once you tell them we've got usable OTRS permission. For articles that have already been deleted, it's worthwhile checking first to see if it was deleted under A7 or G11 in addition to G12. In that case you can skip checking the rest of their release entirely and just tell them that it's been deleted for other reasons (the "Deleted after permissions granted" template).

To document approval/release of images, send to (as appropriate) permissions-en@wikimedia.org, permissions@wikimedia.org; or permissions-commons@wikimedia.org. The email must clearly identify:

• The URL where the image has been uploaded
• If you have OTRS pending on commons, use: this template
• to get a quicker repsonse, contact an OTRS person you know directly

Sockpuppetry

It is with great regret that I must inform you that I have started a thread about you on the village pump on the illegitimate use of an alternate account: Commons:Village pump#Administrator User:PumpkinSky has engaged in sockpuppetry. Magog the Ogre (talk) (contribs) 02:59, 4 February 2018 (UTC)

Blocking myself. Trying to defend myself would be pointless. PumpkinSky talk 03:05, 4 February 2018 (UTC)

Do you resign from your admin bits voluntarily? Otherwise we have to start a formal de-sysop procedure. --Steinsplitter (talk) 09:24, 4 February 2018 (UTC)

Yea, sure, voluntarily. No one would believe my side of the story anyway so let's just save everyone the hassle. PumpkinSky talk 11:10, 4 February 2018 (UTC)

I believed you quit en.Wikipedia on serious disagreements with the clique, but these “disagreements” were likely rooted in problems of alternative accounts, not really any sensible reform of adminship. You deceived myself, too, not only Commons’ establishment. And also, you tarnished not only the own reputation, but of Commons in general. And consequences are now opposite to all your rhetoric – a positive publicity for the en.Wikipedia regime. Incnis Mrsi (talk) 14:43, 4 February 2018 (UTC)

Wiki Loves Monuments in the United States – Back for 2018!

This user participated in Wiki Loves Monuments 2018.

Want to show your participation in Wiki Loves Monuments 2018? Add {{User Wiki Loves Monuments 2018}} to your userpage!

Hello! Last year you contributed to Wiki Loves Monuments 2017 in the United States. Thanks to people like you it was a great success, with over 1,400 people contributing over 8,000 photos of cultural and historic sites from all over the country. Hundreds of these photos now help illustrate Wikipedia articles, improving our open knowledge about United States history, culture, and heritage.

I'm pleased to say that we're back this year with Wiki Loves Monuments 2018 in the United States, and I'd like to welcome you to participate once again in the event. Check out our updated event page for more information. The event runs similar to last year with some small but exciting changes: improved state guides, an interactive map, and a larger prize pool! Like last year, you'll be able to upload your photos of any registered historical site in the United States through the end of September (even if the photos were taken before this month).

Once again, thank you for participating in Wiki Loves Monuments 2017, and we hope to see you again in this year's event! If you'd like to respond to this message directly, please do so on on my talk page. ~Kevin Payravi (talk) 11:46, 11 September 2018 (UTC)

•  Support. 4nn1l2 (talk) 15:58, 17 August 2019 (UTC)
•  Support, high quality photographer and was previously trusted enough to become a sysop, so I don't see why they wouldn't be trusted enough to become "a normal editor" again with some restrictions, even though they don't list the reason for their unblock request or acknowledge their mistakes as is customary, but if it's a matter of trust I'd say that I trust them to be a good uploader and to patrol copyright violations. In fact as someone who casually observes quality image nominations I must say that I miss their uploads. --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 16:20, 17 August 2019 (UTC)
  • Donald Trung I was trying to acknowledge my mistakes when I said "my transgressions". I felt it was obvious from talk page what this was all about. As for the reason, I would simply like to return to uploading photos again. PumpkinSky talk 16:28, 17 August 2019 (UTC)
•  Oppose See

• Commons:Village pump/Archive/2018/02#Administrator User:PumpkinSky has engaged in sockpuppetry
• Commons talk:Featured picture candidates/Archive 19#User:PumpkinSky and User:HalfGig
• Wikipedia AN/I.

This user socked for six years with at least three accounts (this, HalfGig and Rlevse). He was trusted as an admin yet chose to deceive communities on Wikipedia and Commons. Shortly after being indef blocked for socking on Commons (which was used to double-vote at 100 Feature Picture Candidates) he was also blocked infef on Wikipedia for socking there. Cleaning up the featured picture nominations after the socking was uncovered took a lot of effort. This isn't 18 months, though, is it? The sock Minnehaha850 (talk · contribs) was active in Feb 2018 but awoke in Sept 2018 to evade this indef block and was detected and blocked by User:Elcobbola (and blocked on Wikipedia too). There seems a high risk there are other unconfessed sock accounts.

Given the scale and persistence of the "transgressions" I don't think the above "I've learned my lesson and apologize to the community" is anywhere close to sufficient. Nor do I think unblock should be granted without wider discussion at the Village Pump and FPC community. If you don't want that discussion, you can withdraw. I won't advertise this there until you respond. But I request no admin unblocks the account without wide community approval. I would also like to know if he intends to contribute to FP and QI, projects that require confidence about trust, or to seek adminship. -- Colin (talk) 16:47, 17 August 2019 (UTC)

• • I knew I could count on you to start the drama, Colin. This would no doubt persist by you even if I were unblocked and I don't need that in my life. So yea, I'm withdrawing already. PumpkinSky talk 16:54, 17 August 2019 (UTC)

• I think that he could be (topic) banned from contributing to FP and QI and that he could just simply continue to upload photographs. While I must admit that the above unblock request isn't perfect, this user has been a net positive for Wikimedia Commons in the past and might become one again if unblocked. Also from what I can tell Wikimedia Commons doesn't have a banning policy so theoretically any admin could unblock him, but as it was such a community wide disruption that they've caused I can see why such a village pump discussion might be necessary. --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 16:56, 17 August 2019 (UTC)
• "start the drama" -- don't twist things PumpkinSky. There's no "drama" -- just a perfectly civil discussion here. If you mean, remind everyone what disruption you caused, then yes that seems perfectly reasonable when considering an unblock. The only person here who created drama was you, repeatedly and persistently over years on multiple projects. Twisting it to make it seem that others will cause trouble if you come back is exactly the sort of perverted unpleasantness we all could do without. Your unblock request was the most perfunctory and lacking genuine contrition I have ever seen in all my years. It doesn't sound like you have changed one bit, or are in fact the least bit sorry. -- Colin (talk) 08:16, 18 August 2019 (UTC)

Wrt "I would simply like to return to uploading photos again", if you genuinely want to contribute free photographs that anyone can use, then upload them to Flickr and stick a CC BY SA 2.0 licence on them. I'm sure someone here will be happy to upload them for you, and add any useful ones to Wikipedia. -- Colin (talk) 10:36, 19 August 2019 (UTC)

•  Comment The rationale is really a bit too short. The tone of this rationale, seems (IMO) to point in the right direction toward one of the necessary conditions : acknowledgement, and I'm in favor of second chances, especially for potentially prolific users. However a credible acknowledgement should be a bit (much) more consistent and solid. Christian Ferrer ^(talk) 17:43, 17 August 2019 (UTC)
•  Oppose Per Colin. No confidence whatsoever --A.Savin 13:52, 18 August 2019 (UTC)
•  Comment - PumpkinSky thanks for filling this unblock request. I have a few questions for you.

1. As a former sysop, you were fully aware that socking is something that is strongly discouraged by the community. Why did you engaged in it?
2. How do you plan to ensure that this never repeat itself?
3. Are there other undisclosed sock accounts you would like to disclose?
4. What do you understand of the issues that led to your block?
5. If you are to suggest any restriction if unblocked, what are these restrictions likely to includes?

Looking forward to reading your response. T Cells^Talk 21:01, 21 August 2019 (UTC)

• T Cells, Pumpkinsky wrote above that he withdraws his unblock request. Clearly he wanted to return quietly without the whole community noticing, or being held subject to any scrutiny as you are doing. Since his biggest crime on Commons was to cheat at Featured Pictures, I think it only fair that the community at FP should have a say in whether he returns to Commons. But since he asked for no drama, I did not post there. I think it now best to respect his request to writhdraw and close the unblock request. And of course, be vigilant for his socks. -- Colin (talk) 08:47, 22 August 2019 (UTC)

I missed this So yea, I'm withdrawing already. Thank you for pointing it out Colin. Regards. T Cells^Talk 16:50, 22 August 2019 (UTC)
