File:Mater-Banshee.JPG
I recently looked in on a file I uploaded a few years ago, File:Mater-Banshee.JPG. I have found that YOU altered it doing a size reduction. OK -- you had your reasons for doing the size thing -- I'm use to it -- but why did you delete the record of my uploading it originally? You have taken FULL credit for what I posted to the site.

- Jason, both the downscaling of unnecessarily large non-free images and the deletion of old non-free revisions are actually required per our non-free content policy and are done routinely by editors and admins (CAT:FURD). The page history still shows you as the original uploader. Amalthea 11:40, 4 October 2013 (UTC)
- What Amalthea said. I wouldn't care less what name an image is attached to, as far as it fits within non-free content policy. Now get off your high horse, stop belitting others for every little thing, and assume some good faith next time. --MuZemike 02:44, 5 October 2013 (UTC)
