Block request for User:RevengerTime

RevengerTime (talk · contributions · Move log · block log · uploads · Abuse filter log) block user Removing speedy templates despite warning on talk page. All the best -- Chuck ^Talk 01:43, 6 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Dispite multiple warnings, they are still removing speedy templates, and leaving behind some very interesting edit summaries. All the best -- Chuck ^Talk 02:04, 6 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Done blocked three days. I left a message on your talk page. While I do agree removing the speedy deletion tag is not the happiest approach to such controversies, I don't think it was meant as vandalism and they had a reasonable motive, given that the Vogue Taiwan files (owned directly by Conde Nast) are legitimately released under a CC license. There is no reason to legitimately doubt that. I have blocked Revenge as they used an insult in an edit summary, which is unacceptable. Bedivere (talk) 02:15, 6 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

and on your side, edit warring over a speedy deletion tag is not fine either. You saw there was disagreement over the speedy deletion tag, you could have nominated the files for deletion yourself. While Commons currently has no formal three revert rule, this doesn't mean that edit warring is acceptable. That is why I have issued a three day block for you too. I am open to reviewing an unblock request if you make one. You are a very active and seemingly experienced user and should know better how to handle these situations. --Bedivere (talk) 02:21, 6 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
