Saibo
Sadly, I am not active anymore on Wikimedia's projects and plan to retire completely. Explanation? Please see User:Saibo/WMF (in short: it is Wikimedia Foundation's and, in the meantime, the “community's” failing).
This is not indicative of breaking any Wikimedia policies. |
For insiders:
12:34, 16 March 2012 my office changed status for global account Saibo: Set locked; Unset (none) (OFFICE action: please contact legal@myoffice with questions.)

Hi! Please visit also my de.wikipedia user page.
License information on derivative works created by me
editIn case the copyright situation is not clear: Whenever I create derivative works (DW), someone assumes a copyright eligibility of my work, and I did not make any notes on this on the file page: I do not intend to restrict the free status of the original work with my DW. So please assume the original license or a equivalent one. E.g. if I do a DW of a PD-old file please assume my work, if eligible for copyright, to be put into the PD, too (or CC-0 in that case).
Notice board with general information about Commons
editPersona non grata get blocked by WMF
edit- Main article: /WMF.
… without any reason. Commons:Administrators' noticeboard/User problems/Geni's allegations against Beta M#Global lock (block log)
US-centric deletion
edit- US-centric deletion of many
{{PD-old-70}}works: Commons:Deletion requests/All files copyrighted in the US under the URAA - The deletion project of those who try to convert "Commons" to "US Commons": Commons:Requests for comment/PD review. Beware: only pro deletion comments are allowed – opposing views get deleted also notices of this happening were tried to be deleted. After the previous page did not get the support some had wished a new private WikiProject for deletion of public domain works has been created.
SFCP (Special Forces Cleanup Project)
edit- New: Censorship via the backdoor 2:
- Commons:Requests for comment/improving search#Safesearch after the previous attempt by other users to fully delete File:Masturbating with a toothbrush.jpg was not successful.
- New: Censorship via the backdoor:
- See also category: Nudity and sexuality-related deletion requests/deleted.
- Commons:Undeletion_requests…#File:Christina_B finger_masturbation.jpg – deleted with a dubious rationale and UDR was not closed.
- Commons:Deletion requests/Pictures of that Christina B.#Pictures of that Christina B. – same
- Commons:Undeletion_requests/…#File:Coital Play.png deleted with no reason for deletion – UDR saved this rare photo

- Commons:Deletion requests/File:Masturbacion masculina.gif – saved from censorship by an UDR
- Commons:Deletion requests/File:Masturbating with a toothbrush.jpg – saved from censorship by an UDR
Low impact follow-up
edit- Commons:Village pump#Board directs WMF to conduct a study about objectionable content
- meta:2010 Wikimedia Study of Controversial Content
- Commons:Sexual content – was a proposed policy by some people who think we need a another policy to satisfy the US media which was – once more – rejected.
- Guideline-anchored phobia categories to hide content (instead to show it) – dead
- Image filter – not implemented, WMF board got bashed
Jimbo, the vandal
editI do not condone the actions of Jimbo Wales regarding the deletion of material of sexual content, that go as far as deleting illustrations and artwork. Check out: meta:Requests for comment/Remove Founder flag and meta:Petition to Jimbo. Jimbo’s founder flag lost the technical rights (which enabled him to do the out of process deletions at Commons) in that course.
„[…] there was so much hardcore pornography on commons that there’s still some left in nooks and crannies.“ Jimbo Wales May 8 13:08:31 UTC
„In the interest of encouraging this discussion to be about real philosophical/content issues, rather than be about me and how quickly I acted, I've just now removed virtually all permissions to actually do
things from the "Founder" flag.“
„I do not want to be a tyrant or dictator. I do not want us to fight about that kind of thing“ hindsight (or similar) – Jimbo May 9 09:46:50 UTC
