images

Please stop adding unrelated images to every article. Random vehicles, ww2 photo to military units, why is this necessary? They often seem to also be formatted incorrectly, resulting in giant, page covering images, or superfluous duplicates. If its adding an image of a thing which has an image in commons but not in the article (picture of person etc), sure. But in the aforementioned situations, why? --Havsjö (talk) 06:38, 3 July 2020 (UTC)

My bad Please kindly send the link to the article let me undo them Joy Ayara (talk) 09:09, 3 July 2020 (UTC)

The image you added to John R. Countryman is nominated for deletion by the uploader. Not sure why it hasn't been deleted yet, but it is a non-free image and does not belong in the infobox. I found a free image to use further down. Thank you, Yoninah (talk) 11:59, 3 July 2020 (UTC)

Okay Thanks for notifying me I will take extra care next time Do have a lovely day Joy Ayara (talk) 12:04, 3 July 2020 (UTC)

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to use disruptive, inappropriate or hard-to-read formatting, you may be blocked from editing. There is a Wikipedia Manual of Style, and edits should not deliberately go against it without special reason. Please stop adding images to articles. These should be thumbnails rather than naked sized images, and they should have captions. You're doing this at a high rate of speed and most of your additions are not improvements. Moreover, why do you keep adding "#wpwp #wpwpng" to your edit summaries? This is confusingly unhelpful. –Deacon Vorbis (carbon • videos) 12:34, 3 July 2020 (UTC)

Also as a heads up, I'm about to undo what I can of these based on the above problems. –Deacon Vorbis (carbon • videos) 12:34, 3 July 2020 (UTC)

Please stop now. I've just undone another one manually. There's a lot to be aware of when adding images to articles and your additions have been extremely problematic. It's very unusual for a new user to just come here and start adding images at high rates of speed like this; why have you been doing this? It is some sort of project or something? –Deacon Vorbis (carbon • videos) 13:10, 3 July 2020 (UTC)

It's a competition and the hashtags are required to make your edits count. I will go over the lesson on how to edit again Thanks for your notification If you don't mind you can show me how to add images I will really appreciate it Joy Ayara (talk) 13:36, 3 July 2020 (UTC)

I've raised this issue at the Administrator's Noticeboard because I'm concerned about the problems this may be causing. Please see Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard#Image competition? for the thread. –Deacon Vorbis (carbon • videos) 14:05, 3 July 2020 (UTC)

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you insert a spam link, as you did at ZOOM Erlebniswelt Gelsenkirchen. Persistent spammers may have their websites blacklisted, preventing anyone from linking to them from all Wikimedia sites as well as potentially being penalized by search engines.--Mr Fink (talk) 14:29, 3 July 2020 (UTC)

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for abuse of editing privileges.

If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.

@Apokryltaros and Materialscientist: Can either of you tell me, please, what is wrong with this edit, why is was reverted (with no explanation in the edit summary) and which link you think it "spammed"? Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 22:17, 3 July 2020 (UTC)

The user, Joy Ayara, admitted that all of their edits concerning inserting images into articles were for the sake of a contest, and not for improving Wikipedia. Please see WP:NOTHERE.--Mr Fink (talk) 23:49, 3 July 2020 (UTC)

@Apokryltaros: Your comment does not, in any way, answer any of my questions. You have also provided no diff to substantiate your claim that "The user ... admitted that all of their edits ... were ... not for improving Wikipedia". Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 09:05, 4 July 2020 (UTC)

The editor's admission that their and all other editors using the hashtags "#wpwp #wpwpng" are deliberately trying to flood Wikipedia articles with poor quality images, many of which also have copyright issues, for the sake of a cash prize to see who can insert as many pictures into as many articles as they can, therefore creating a conflict of interest that causes all of this editor's edits to be highly suspect. Ergo, all of the editor's edits concerning the insertion of images should be reverted as per WP:DENY guidelines.--Mr Fink (talk) 14:14, 4 July 2020 (UTC)

@Apokryltaros: They have admitted no such thing. Desist from this unacceptable behaviour. You have not answered my question. Your conclusion does not stand up. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 19:44, 6 July 2020 (UTC)

@Deacon Vorbis: Did you miss the text "If you don't mind you can show me how to add images/ I will really appreciate it", just above? You posted underneath it, but did not respond to it. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 22:19, 3 July 2020 (UTC)
