| == Quick Question == | |||
| Hi Durova, I have been meaning to ask you. Why, considering you "like" (maybe not the right word) to deal with difficult situations/users, are you an Admin open to recall? You know that you are honest and fair, and your actions show that. Why potentially let a group of users gang up on you if they do not like your decision. There are other mechanisms to deal with rogue Admins. ] 14:49, 21 December 2006 (UTC) | |||
| :Firstly, the category implies that the users should be in good standing and respected by Durova herself. Secondly, reconfirmation of adminship is not tantamount to desysoping. Thirdly, I agree that Durova does not need to be open to recall: she is a trusted member of the community without it. --<font color="FC4339">]</font> <sup><font color="C98726">]</font></sup> 14:52, 21 December 2006 (UTC) | |||
| Thanks for the good word, Ghirla. That's fair while my own take on this is a little different. Somebody needs to go after the hard cases, to really put on the work gloves and dig up the dirt. Part of why I do this is because I don't want other people to go through the same hard time that I had during my first months as an editor (dealing with difficult users, not being one). Some of the people who cause problems may be willing to turn around and join the spirit of the project so if I have to err I prefer to err toward ]. That doesn't stop me from blocking or banning when it's needed. I hope the people I block and ban can see that it's done appropriately. Some of them can't or won't see that so I do my best to make sure everybody else understands. When a blocked editor hasn't gotten an unblock review and claims I can't see logic or insists I'm the one who should be blocked I'll go ahead and relay their request at ]. I've got nothing to hide. | |||
| Yes, sooner or later a group of problem editors will probably band together and attempt a malfeasance case against me. It happened to ]. I think my best defense is to earn the reputation ''Durova is as fair as they come.'' Misplaced Pages is on a worthwhile mission to give everybody a 💕, yet as I state at ] the stakes in edit disputes are pretty small. <font face="Verdana">]<sup>'']]''</sup></font> 16:02, 21 December 2006 (UTC) | |||

| :I don't really see the point in what he is adding his name to. I never see an author cited to list a skateboarder/snowborders favorite tricks. Are authors cited for a filmography?

| ::There is no point, it's vanity - I have written a lot of wrestler movelists on this website such as ] (which I need to clean up) but could I cite myself as the source? Of course not. If the source is another website then the other website is the source unless the author is listed which it is not. Did he write it? Possibly. Does it matter? No, because quite simply the site only lists names and never expands on them - the names come from the wrestlers themselves and not the website, which also lacks descriptions of the moves it names. –– ''']'''<sup><small>(])</small></sup> 15:28, 21 December 2006 (UTC) | |||
| This is a banned editor now so there's no need to attempt discussion of these edits on their own merits. Per ] the best thing to do is just report and revert. He's probably reading our talk pages.

| :Durova, I may be extraordinarily paranoid, but could you arrange a checkuser on ]? Check .

| :Looking over the PAIN thread, I see this has escalated to a proposed arbitration case. Would you and Ghirla be willing to have a shot at mediating with me in the middle instead? If you can iron things out informally it would be a lot less painful. <font face="Verdana">]<sup>'']]''</sup></font> 23:29, 22 December 2006 (UTC) | |||
| ::I have already proposed a mediation to Ghirlandajo, . He has also . The RfC is still going on, and has already turned into quasi-mediation, as several neutral users have proposed solutions, however with Ghirla's withdrawal the mediation there has become rather problematic as well. I am afraid I have to agree with JzG that only an ArbCom enforced ruling, preferably a civility parole, will solve the issue - but if you have any other suggestions, I'd most certainly appreciate them.--<sub><span style="border:1px solid #228B22;padding:1px;">]|]</span></sub> 00:41, 23 December 2006 (UTC) | |||
| :::Thank you for the diffs. Maybe he'll respond differently to an invitation from me (we've always been cordial) when the alternative is an arbitration case. There's nothing to lose from giving this a try. Regards, <font face="Verdana">]<sup>'']]''</sup></font> 00:48, 23 December 2006 (UTC) | |||
| ::::I have updated the ] page with past attempts at DR to give you (and others) full history of attempted (and failed) DR proceedings, that includes to addition mediations (refused by mediators) and an ArbCom related warning to Ghirla. I am very sceptical if a mediation would work given the past experience, but we can of course try it ''once more''. Please note, however, that I will not agree to step down as an administrator voluntarily (and as far as I know, this was his main demand regarding myself - although please note ]); he on the other hand has never admited that he was uncivil and never agreed to promise to improve his behaviour. How can you convince either of us to change their views - I am not sure, and this is why I, as well as increasing number of people, think ArbCom enforced ruling may be the only solution that will work in the end.--<sub><span style="border:1px solid #228B22;padding:1px;">]|]</span></sub> 13:03, 23 December 2006 (UTC) | |||
| :::::Then would you accept this as a middle gound? If you agree to trust me, then at the close of mediation I could make a call of whether to initiate a reconfirmation vote for your adminship. I'd decide about opening a reconfirmation based on whether I think there's a reasonable basis to put to the community. At the outset I'd present my own vote (support, oppose, or neutral) with a summary of my reasoning and the mediation. This proposal would be a bit different from the regular ''open to recall'' standards - I'm open to recall too so I know how that works. The advantage of this proposal is that it could be faster and less painful than an ArbCom slugfest; its disadvantage is that more than the usual amount of discretion would depend on one person. I'd be willing to mediate whether or not possible reconfirmation weighs in the balance, but perhaps this would bring Ghirla to the table. <font face="Verdana">]<sup>'']]''</sup></font> 14:07, 23 December 2006 (UTC) | |||
| ::::::Technical note first: please drop me a short msg on my talk that you responded elsewhere if you want me to respond quickly :) Now, as I said before, I am open to recall per procedures I listed on my page; I'd certainly see you as 'an editor in good standing', so if there are five other neutral parties who think a recall should be initatiated, then a recall (reconfirmation would mean the same, I'd think, let's not mince words) can be initiated ''even without a mediation carrot'' - this is my pledge to the community, not a special concession for Ghirla alone. On the other hand, please note that I stand by everything I wrote on the ArbCom case, and I currently believe that placing him on the civility parole is the only thing that can solve this conflict (from my perspective; please also note I would not oppose if a civility parole would be placed on me, ''too''). PS. Please note that a mediation case plus most of the editors involved in the RfC found no basis to support the claim that I have ever abused my admin powers.--<sub><span style="border:1px solid #228B22;padding:1px;">]|]</span></sub> 14:44, 23 December 2006 (UTC) | |||
| :::::::So if I understand that correctly, you prefer to stand by the standard terms of ]? If you can construct a version of civility parole that could work via mediation then let me know. <font face="Verdana">]<sup>'']]''</sup></font> 14:49, 23 December 2006 (UTC) | |||
| ::::::::By the slightly modified terms as seen on my page, although I am open to discussing them, of course. As for a civility parole, ]. The problem with it, as we have discussed on RfC talk page, is that such a parole needs to be ''enforced'' - and only ArbCom can do it, especially as on the talk RfC Ghirla has specifically rejected the idea that he should be subjected to any kind of penalties for his behaviour (again, please note that as a sign of good will and compromise I have volunteered to be subjected to the same restrictions, even if little evidence of my incivility has been presented).--<sub><span style="border:1px solid #228B22;padding:1px;">]|]</span></sub> 16:12, 23 December 2006 (UTC) | |||
| :::::::::Let's let this percolate until Ghirla is able to come back and participate. Maybe we'll all brew a good solution. <font face="Verdana">]<sup>'']]''</sup></font> 16:20, 23 December 2006 (UTC) | |||
| Good news: Ghirla accepts my mentorship proposal. He did so before I made the above offer (which I probably should have checked before posting - my excuse is that it's early dawn in California and I'm in my pre-coffee stupor). I'll leave the proposal stand and see what you both think of it. This mediation will start slowly: Ghirla's on holiday break.

| Hi there, thanks for semi-protecting the article but I believe that the IP address who vandalised the article may also have a user account called ' Wateva100 ', so if it is the same person they would still be able to edit the page because they have been at Misplaced Pages for a few weeks, so my worry is: will this stop the Vandalism; If you have any other suggestions or would like to say anything you can put it on my Talk Page.

| I noticed that you protected the article ] (). I'm afraid that it might not have worked (). Also, the template {{tl|protect}} was not added. | |||
| Regarding the name of the article, I believe it would be preferable if consensus was reached. The present situation is that ] and ] have been moving the article back and forth ( ), so protection until consensus has been reached might be useful. | |||

| ==Your comments about me in WP/ANI== | |||
| I'm taking a break from all of this stuff but I couldn't help but read it. I'm going to continue to stay out of the discussion for a while but I wanted to say something to you here. I read your latest comment and all I can assume is that you missed reading my response to you. I was not "forum shopping" and I was not being deceptive. You have my actions wrong and I hope you can reevaluate them in good faith. I agree that I have let this stuff frustrate me too much and done things I should not have -- edit warring, and having a short temper with the likes of Isarig. The temper thing has always been in response to his relentless attacks - as CSTAR noted some time ago, he knows how to manipulate me well. But my complaint here was not about his behavior six weeks ago - it was about the last couple days, and the links I added from weeks ago were only there to put one of his attacks on me in historical context. It has been blown out of proportion -- the reality is I could not care less what Isarig thinks of my teaching since he has never set foot in my classroom and he never will. I understand your comment that my behavior here has not always been consistent with someone in my position; frankly, it is enough to simply state that there are problems with someone's behavior without making reference to their job, especially when you know nothing about it. (I'm not talking about your familiarity with libel law; I'm talking about your familiarity with my specific actions in my place of employment). Isarig told me I didn't know a particular thing about libel and that therefore I was a lousy teacher; I told him he would probably fail my exam since his understanding of that particular thing was totally wrong. Perhaps I should have just told him he would get that particular question wrong on an exam rather than telling him he would fail - in truth I know as much about his ability to pass one of my classes as he knows about that actual class. But it doesn't matter - the heart of the problem with Isarig has little to do with those particular comments, as offensive as they may have been at the time; it has to do with his more general relentless edit warring and aggressive behavior towards me. I don't know what to do about it and I don't envy your position. Were I an outside observer my advice would probably be to block both of us for a cooling off period and/or encourage a 1RR for everyone involved for a while. The truth is, however, that I haven't done anything that would justify being blocked, whereas I believe Isarig has (I also think most of the people who have had interactions with both of us agree). But if you think both of us are misbehaving to the same degree, then perhaps that is worth considering, not so much as a disciplinary mechanism but as a way to encourage cooling down the discussion completely. I frankly can't invest the emotional energy in continuing my interactions with him the way they have been going under any circumstances. ] 08:54, 4 January 2007 (UTC) | |||
| :As I read things, your occupation became a point of dispute because you made it an issue during a talk page thread. That, along with your links to the thread at two forums, are why I responded on the topic. In the spirit of Misplaced Pages's policy ] I trust that you probably are a good instructor and what's happened here is a function of Internet dynamics: remove intonation and facial expression from a conversation, add instantaneous delivery and anonymity, and the results sometimes get messy. What troubles me about this particular situation is that it's lasted so long and affected a variety of articles. | |||
| :Cooling off is definitely a good idea. When I read the Quran controvery thread I frankly agreed with you regarding the link, but if I'd been active at the page and things started to degenerate that way I'd have dropped the issue: it's only one link. Perhaps in a month or two I would have returned, posted to the talk page to see whether it still raised any hackles, and deleted it then (if someone else hadn't done so already). Have a look at ] to see my general perspective. | |||
| :I have doubts about using the sysop tools to block both you and Isarig. ] might cover this, but if you're actually willing to undergo this voluntarily then contact Isarig with the idea. If that editor comes to me and volunteers too I'll do it. A week seems about right and it would certainly be less stressful than arbitration. Regards, <font face="Verdana">]<sup>'']''</sup></font> 14:21, 4 January 2007 (UTC) | |||
| ::This is from memory because I don't feel like going back over it line by line -- the thing about my occupation came up in a conversation with another user. Isarig then pounced on it in order to ridicule my understanding of a couple of freedom of speech issues. I pointed out that he was wrong and suggested, tongue in cheek, that he take the class. He responded that he wasn't likely to want to take a class from someone who didn't understand these issues; I pointed out that it was he who did not understand the issues, and he ridiculed my teaching again; it was at that point that I told him he would probably fail the class. That was part of a longer post in which I specifically explained why he was wrong; instead of backing off at that point, he googled for a link to a court case he had never heard of before and used that link to make an argument that was absurd; then he stated that I was a disgrace to my profession and embarrassing my students. I pointed out his error, quoted experts on the libel v. slander distinction, and told him to back off of my profession since he had never set foot in my classroom. I agree my one comment was uncivil, but on the whole it was clearly isarig and not me who was aggressively provoking a fight. You have now publicly chastised me three times for this comment, sided with Isarig about my profession, and you haven't said a word about the abusive comments made by Isarig. I find that appalling. I also find it irrelevant to bring up six weeks after the incident, since, as I said a couple of times now, I was only providing those links for historical context -- not to "forum shop" or make "deceptive complaints" or to try to get Isarig disciplined for something he was reported for already. If you're willing to AGF that I am a good professor, perhaps you can AGF about my actions on Misplaced Pages as well. | |||
| ::As for what to do with the conflict, I stated that if I was an outside uninterested observer that might be what I would recommend. I don't think I should be blocked, but I do think Isarig has committed a number of abuses that deserve at least a rebuke from an admin if not a fullscale block. But punishment isn't the issue here; what I've said before is I just want the objectionable behavior to stop. Are you unwilling to even admonish Isarig for his behavior over the past week? Perhaps remind everyone that the 3RR is not a license, that things are better settled with cool heads in talk pages, and that a 1RR might be a better approach? Again, I don't envy your job here. I took a voluntary break to cool off but I don't think Isarig will do the same. ] 19:14, 4 January 2007 (UTC) | |||
| :::Fair enough: your explanation holds water and you have a good point. I'll post a few words for Isarig. From your posts it seems as if this conflict is primarily between the two of you? Please clarify if I'm mistaken because it's also looked as if several other people had become involved. <font face="Verdana">]<sup>'']''</sup></font> 23:40, 4 January 2007 (UTC) | |||
| ::::It depends what you mean by "this conflict"... my report to WP/ANI dealt specifically with Isarig's behavioral issues that I felt needed to be addressed. Obviously, others have had similar interactions with Isarig, and have voiced their opinions on the page. SlimVirgin has started a much larger debate about antisemitism and Israel-related pages that is important in its own right, but I don't think a "general climate of hostility" towards Jews or towards people critical of Israel is a valid excuse for wikistalking, for 3RR-gaming, for personal attacks, etc. I think SlimVirgin has the problem mostly backwards -- I think there is more hostility encouraged towards those who are critical of Israeli policy (even those who, like me, are only occasionally so), but insofar as there is antisemitism on Misplaced Pages I agree with her that it should be confronted. (If you look way back in my edit history, you will find that I led the way in confronting the antisemitism of one user, Zephram Stark and his sockpuppets, who was abusing Misplaced Pages). Since I am myself a sephardic Jew with an orthodox heritage I find the implication that my actions are antisemitic troubling, to say the least. But it may help explain some of the vehemence between Isarig and I. I have personal experience with relatives and other people who survived the Holocaust; I have seen the consequences of '''real''' antisemitism closely, and I have identified strongly with its victims. I do not consider a conversation critical of certain Israeli military policies to rise to the status of real antisemitism, and I find it both offensive and disgraceful when people equate the two. When seemingly intelligent people like Isarig do so over and over (and I'm not talking about anything he said about me here; I'm talking about his insistence on publishing scurrilous attacks against Juan Cole in Cole's biography page) it is particularly troubling. I feel that it trivializes the issue of real antisemitism and demeans the victims of such antisemitism. If Professor Cole starts painting swastikas on a synagogue or calling for a "final solution," I will be right there with Isarig confronting him. But all he has done is provide a political analysis of the neoconservatives who openly promoted the war against Iraq, noting that they also openly support the policies of Israel's Likud party. | |||
| ::::Anyway, to come back to your question, the conflict I reported is between myself and Isarig, but there are obviously at least two other issues at work here -- (1) other people - several, apparently - have had similar interactions with Isarig and have made similar complaints about his behavior. Most of these are not people I have interacted with myself, and Isarig's behavior apparently has been objected to by others on several different pages. This is evidence, I think, that there are others potentially involved in the conflict, or at least that Isarig has engaged in arguably disruptive behavior elsewhere. That seems within the scope of the ANI dispute you are trying to resolve. (2) the larger question of criticism of Israel and of antisemitism is one that is probably outside the scope of that dispute and is not going to be resolved by one administrator. A block or other disciplinary action, or arbcom, is not going to fix that. Perhaps someone can start working on a Misplaced Pages guideline surrounding the Israel-related articles -- that won't fix the problem but it can at least contribute towards a larger understanding on the issue that can be referred to during disputes.] 00:15, 5 January 2007 (UTC) | |||

Conversely, I'd have roughly equal reason to block you if Isarig's behavior had been above reproach. Part of what worries me about this case is that I had basically the same conversation with you six weeks ago. This dispute is like a snowball rolling down a hill picking up new participants and new issues as it goes. Now it's agglomerating a big smelly patch of Arab-Israeli conflict.

| ::By not demanding that he apologise to trolls, by not threatening him with a block, by trying to figure out what the problem was, by approaching it out of concern, rather than like someone on a power trip... by approaching it in just about any way other than the way you did. Do you seriously think that Guy is a disruptive editor? Have you looked into any of these situations? Do you not know how frustrating Fys is to deal with? Do you not have a clue how annoying trolls can be? It's ''normal'' for someone who does as much of that sort of work as Guy does to feel the strain. A couple outbursts over the course of the last couple months is pretty normal. It may be a sign that he is taking on too much crap and should take a break from that sort of stuff. It's the sort of situation where the community should provide support. | |||
| ::Flying off the handle and issuing threats is the worst possible thing to do. We are a community of volunteers. Instead of being supportive of someone who is stressed, you treat him like a troll. You have clearly said that you don't appreciate his service to the community, that all his work isn't worth shit to you...at least that's the way that someone under pressure would read your actions. I assume that this isn't obvious to you, that your actions were just thoughtless and not malicious...but I can only do that by making a conscious decision to assume good faith and assume that you are not out to hurt the project.

''Tu quoque'' is not an excuse; I cope with difficult editors every day and I certainly would expect to receive a user block or comparable warning if I acted as he has. In deference to his experience and contributions I offered him two dignified alternatives which I would rarely extend after reading such diffs. I also couched the statement in terms of respect that I sincerely feel. Guy is a reasonable man and will probably respond to this in a positive way - so let's not engage in a hypothetical quarrel.

| I find it interesting that you say "''I certainly would expect to receive a user block or comparable warning if I acted as he has''", and yet you have done far worse than Guy did. Failing massively to AGF, you issued a threat of a block for using the word "twat", ignoring the possibility that other people may use slang terms differently than do you. Your actions clearly violate the blocking policy - not only is blocking not to be used punitively, blocking for a single transgression is unacceptable. As for blockable offenses, flying off the handle like you did and issuing threats is highly disruptive. Your disruption was far worse than Guy's "incivility" - are you saying that you expect a block for your misdeeds? | |||
| What I find far more disturbing is your utter lack of empathy for your fellow editors, despite the fact that you claim to have been in a similar situation, and your dismissal of the idea that rather than issuing threats you should have approached the situation with some amount of understanding. Do you really think that threats are more likely to produce results than civil discourse? When you tell someone "do as I say or I will punish you" the most likely response is anger. If the person is afraid of you, they will probably obey, but it does nothing to resolve the situation. Threats are among the least effective tools for resolving disagreements. | |||
| We don't have rules just for the fun of having them. We have rules as a means to an end - the end being the project to write an encyclopaedia. Using "the rules" to try to build a utopian society at the expense of writing an encyclopaedia is abuse of the rules. ''Guy made a comment about a banned editor''. His "incivility" to Yrgh did not create an environment in which Yrgh was less likely to be a productive editor - he had already been "shown the door". On the other hand, telling a (probably) stressed editor that you didn't give a damn about their contribution is far more likely to hurt the project than anything Guy did. We only have two missions here - build a {good, free, NPOV} encyclopaedia, and keep our editors happy and productive (because we need them to write the encyclopaedia). Every other rule, every other policy, exists to support these two ideas. Someone like Guy (or you, or me) has contributed thousands of hours of time as a volunteer here. It's unacceptable to devalue someone's contribution for the sake of rules-lawyering. ] 08:23, 5 January 2007 (UTC) | |||
| :I beg your pardon: that is a thoroughly inaccurate way of characterizing my actions and the person who flouts ] is you. I have already explained repeatedly that I ''did not'' threaten a block for that single post; I posted this. When I upgraded to this I included the link to the evidence of six other uncivil statements. That is the good faith I continued to assume despite the fact that in my idiom of English no milder definition of ''worthless twat'' exists: it is identical to ''worthless cunt''. I could not fail to assume good faith about a definition I did not know exists, yet I managed to assume that it was a typing error. It is useless to repeat other explanations I have already given: please be consistent and consider ''my'' feelings as well. Please read ] and reconsider whether I merit these stinging and lengthy rebukes or ] to see why I object to ''the t-word'' and what you can do about me if you think I'm that bad. <font face="Verdana">]<sup>'']''</sup></font> 14:25, 5 January 2007 (UTC) | |||
| ::Obviously I made the same mistake you did. There's no point in trying to get someone to see your point by yelling at them. But as I said at AN/I, there's nothing blockably incivil in the other 6 diffs. Not if you actually read them carefully. As for the use of slang - either you need to familiarise yourself with dialects of English other than your own, or you need to stop and think before acting like that. If you had stayed at AN/I and discussed the matter the explanation of usage would have come up quickly enough. I'm not sure how carefully you looked at the diffs, but they are pretty tame - "leave me alone" (regardless of how colourfully one chooses to phrase it) isn't "incivil". | |||
| ::What bothers me is your reaction to feedback. I realise that I am not good at putting things nicely - even after spending 10 of the last 13 years in the US I can't grasp the "culture of praise". Quite simply, you ignored the blocking policy, used to threat on punitive blocking to get another editor to conform to your point of view, and seriously disrupted Misplaced Pages. You chose to kick a good editor when he was down, instead of acting as a friend. I wish that there was something in what you said that would suggest that you would think twice before doing something like this in the future, but sadly all I see is defensiveness. | |||
| ::Please try thinking about this again, later, when you are not in such a defensive mood. I don't care if you agree with me or not, but try to see where I am coming from.

Try approaching Hipocrite politely and begin by acknowledging whatever share of responsibility you honestly believe you merit.

A quick look at my contributions will show several entries in the relevant talk page. your article states the vandal enhances the "reverence toward Joan of Arc". I am a doctor and an atheist and feel that Joan's visions might have been hallucinations. My edits (until i grew tired of battling the catholic fundamentalists and stopped editing) were along these lines. My contribution history will not show any alterations to any footnotes, as mentioned in your article. also, my edits were in no way limited to joan of arc. several edits related to australian issues. my efforts to get the block lifted so far has been in vain. the administrators who looked at the block focussed on the fact that i stopped editing a while back, and they didn't begin to explore the merits of the case against me. (they also took offense at me pointing out this fact). there is no wikipedia policy i know of where users on a wikibreak are denied natural justice. again, would appreciate having my name cleared.

April 2018 Milhist Backlog Drive
G'day all, please be advised that throughout April 2018 the Military history Wikiproject is running its annual backlog elimination drive. This will focus on several key areas:
- tagging and assessing articles that fall within the project's scope
- adding or improving listed resources on Milhist's task force pages
- updating the open tasks template on Milhist's task force pages
- creating articles that are listed as "requested" on the project's various lists of missing articles.
As with past Milhist drives, there are points awarded for working on articles in the targeted areas, with barnstars being awarded at the end for different levels of achievement.
The drive is open to all Wikipedians, not just members of the Military history project, although only work on articles that fall (broadly) within the scope of military history will be considered eligible. This year, the Military history project would like to extend a specific welcome to members of Misplaced Pages:WikiProject Women in Red, and we would like to encourage all participants to consider working on helping to improve our coverage of women in the military. This is not the sole focus of the edit-a-thon, though, and there are aspects that hopefully will appeal to pretty much everyone.
The drive starts at 00:01 UTC on 1 April and runs until 23:59 UTC on 30 April 2018. Those interested in participating can sign up here.

Thank you for uploading File:Hearst and Morgan.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Misplaced Pages may not meet the criteria required by Misplaced Pages:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the file description page and adding or clarifying the reason why the file qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Misplaced Pages:Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your file is in compliance with Misplaced Pages policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for files used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.
If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator seven days after the file was tagged in accordance with section F7 of the criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.
