FYI[edit]

Since the ANI thread was closed which is probably for the best I'll mention this here. The nature of this edit [1] especially that it wasn't really "blanking" but replacing the page with half written text makes it obvious to me it was a mistake and not done with ill-intent. But for further confirmation you can see Casprings offering an explanation at the time here [2]. I assume you found the RM edit by looking through Casprings contribution history, so just a reminder if you find something that is unusual to me, it's often best to look around for other edits around the same time to see if there's some explanation before jumping to conclusions. Nil Einne (talk) 19:27, 23 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I should clarify that WP:AGF means you should generally assume it's a mistake anyway unless you have good reason to think otherwise. My point was that to my mind, it was obvious it was a mistake from looking at the edit. And also clear from looking at the edits around the same time which was easy if you were already looking at their contribution history to find that edit. Nil Einne (talk) 19:41, 23 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you. I didn't check his contributions, I merely saw the RM edit, and when I saw that his barnstars weren't added to the page by their original awarders I thought I was 100% sure about what was going on here. Sorry for the wrong report, but thank you for the notification. Andibrema (talk) 20:04, 23 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Could you talk to me in my talk page…[edit]

Before reporting nonsense to ANI? Thanks. Casprings (talk) 19:30, 23 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah that was my other other thought. Even if you were certain the barnstars were faked, you really should have talked to Casprings about it first and brought it to ANI only if necessary. BTW, as per the prominent text when you edit ANI and the header of ANI, you are required to notify editors when bringing them there via talk page message. [3] Pinging them is not enough. Nil Einne (talk) 19:39, 23 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I'm sorry to bother you with this. I simply don't have the expertise to evaluate what's going on on your profile, so I decided to leave it up to the admins instead. I didn't realise that you're supposed to fill in the template that I placed on your page with content. Furthermore, I have no knowledge of any rule that requires that you talk to the affected user first. I'm glad that you're authentic though, so thank you for your contributions.

May 2021[edit]

Please do not move a page to a title that is harder to follow, or move it unilaterally against naming conventions or consensus, as you did to iPad Pro (5th generation). This includes making page moves while a discussion remains underway. We have some guidelines to help with deciding what title is best for a subject. If you would like to experiment with page titles and moving, please use the test Wikipedia. Please also keep in mind the guidance at WP:RM for requesting controversial moves, you did not follow the procedure there, and especially for mass page moves you should make certain editors are informed of the discussion. —Locke Cole • t • c 06:07, 24 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I moved the page after 16 days of discussion on Talk:IPad Pro, which I linked on Talk:IPad Pro (5th generation) as well. The consensus was unanimous and compliant with the naming conventions at WP:AT. I would like to encourage you to accept the result, but if you would like, we can lead another discussion about this topic. Andibrema (talk) 10:13, 24 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

You did not correctly start the discussion (hence my comment about noting the guidance at WP:RM above). Please see the directions here: Wikipedia:Requested moves#Requesting multiple page moves. You also did not tag three of the articles that were the subject of the discussion, leaving out editors who may have only edited those articles. Your single edit to the talk page of IPad Pro (5th generation) (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) was also easily missed as it was both unsigned and did not use the instructions at Wikipedia:Requested moves#Requesting multiple page moves so the bot did not tag the article for editors to see there was a proposal being discussed. Because of the malformed discussion there is no consensus nor any reason for other editors who were not given the opportunity to participate (because of the malformed discussion) to accept the results. If you'd like the pages moved, I'd suggest this:

Leave a link to the discussion on Talk:iPad Pro at each and every talk page for a page being considered for moving.
Decide with editors at Talk:iPad Pro if the pages should be moved, and if so, what names you would like editors to consider (this could be a few days or a week, technically this step is not required but may make the actual requested move step simpler).
Once a naming scheme has been selected, initiate the requested move per the instructions at Wikipedia:Requested moves#Requesting multiple page moves. This will advertise the request to the wider community for input. This step lasts a week.

The need for steps 1 and 2 above is to hopefully reduce the chance of folks wanting a different naming scheme during the actual requested move discussion (which can lead to no consensus results because some will initially oppose/support the move as requested, while a small group may come up with a 3rd/4th/etc option, splintering the !votes). Let me know if you have any questions on the process.

I will discuss naming issues further at the discussion on the article talk page, where that is more appropriate. —Locke Cole • t • c 18:19, 24 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Copyrighted file[edit]

Hello, can you explain why the file you uploaded File: MacBook Air (M1, 2020).jpeg cannot be replaced? Anyone can take a photo of the same equivalent and submit it to Commons as free work. Wingwatchers (talk) 04:11, 29 May 2021 (UTC) The promotional image shows the product from the most relevant angle without distorting proportions, discolouring the image or adding a background that falsely contributes to the impression of the product. Therefore, provides the most neutral impression possible. The equivalent to the promotional image cannot be replicated without significant financial expenditure. Andibrema (talk) 12:55, 29 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I've tagged this image for delayed speedy deletion as it fails WP:NFCC#1. The product design cannot be copyrighted, because only expressions are copyrightable, not ideas. Therefore anyone can take photos of it and upload it to Commons under free license. Non-free images that can be replaced with freely licensed ones can only be kept if there are sourced critical commentary about the image itself (which is very unlikely to happen). --Stylez995 (talk) 01:20, 30 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Replaceable fair use File:MacBook Air (M1, 2020).jpeg[edit]

Thanks for uploading File:MacBook Air (M1, 2020).jpeg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:

Go to the file description page and add the text {{Di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}} below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing <your reason> with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification, per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Stylez995 (talk) 01:01, 30 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free image File:MacBook Air (M1, 2020).jpeg[edit]

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:MacBook Air (M1, 2020).jpeg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Stylez995 (talk) 01:45, 30 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for July 19[edit]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Outline of iOS, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page IPhone SE. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 05:55, 19 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Tidal still provides FLACs for Hi-Fi non-master files[edit]

"Tidal uses MQA, which is lossy. Tidal no longer offers the lossless FLAC"

The latter is not fully true. See here: Tidal still uses FLAC for Hi-Fi 16 bit non-master files. Only all labelled as master (16 and 24 bit) are MQA. I'd rather suggest changing the lossless cell in Tidal for "Yes/No*" and write the information in footnote.
