in the future disambiguate categories, do not delete them, it is disruptive. Slowking4 § Richard Arthur Norton's revenge 14:28, 9 January 2017 (UTC)

Hello Slowking4. Well, the three files were in a wrong category ([1], [2], [3]) so I have thought that it was OK to remove it. I am sorry for this disruption. Thanks for the advice. --NicoScribe (talk) 18:23, 9 January 2017 (UTC)

Welcome, Dear Patroller!

Counter Vandalism Unit

Hi NicoScribe,

You now have the Patroller right and may call yourself a patroller! Please take a moment to read the updated Commons:Patrol to learn how Patrolling works and how we use it to fight vandalism.

As you know already, the patrolling functionality is enabled for all edits, not just for new-page creations. This enables us to keep track of, for example, edits made by anonymous users here on Commons.

We could use your help at the Counter Vandalism Unit. For example by patrolling an Anonymous-edits checklist and checking a day-part.

If you have any questions please leave a message on the CVU talkpage or ask for help on IRC in #wikimedia-commons.

I also granted you the rollback right. jdx ^Re: 17:45, 4 May 2018 (UTC)

Unexplained reverts

NicoScribe why provide a "question mark" without properly explaining your reverting of good fix of a inter-wiki link of a featured picture linked discussion whereas as opposed to a not present/existent, error-prone discussion link to a FOP on English Wikipedia. I suggest you stop doing this stuff as noticed on undoing, often providing unknown rationales, may lead to unpleasant edit wars for even uncontroversial IW-fix. Do not even noticed the revert, after having glance on my contributions. Please AGF before performing such actions, and use a descriptive edit summary. --182.58.165.9 16:51, 26 April 2019 (UTC)

Small hint if you disagree (and probably) continue a disruption; see- en:Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/La Jaconde (current fix to WI-link) and this:- en:Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/La Joconde, correcting discussion links to show establishment of consensus and reverting improperly with a undesirable, completely bonk edit summary of a character ("?") is doing such bad will credit to its page (on English Wikipedia) itself. Using user rights with responsible manner is what I care. Patrolled (rollback) editing was not used, fairness achieved, revert back to improper version: nope. --182.58.165.9 16:57, 26 April 2019 (UTC)

Hello. Yes, my edit was an error. I am sorry. Thank you! Regards --NicoScribe (talk) 18:52, 26 April 2019 (UTC)

Flag of Switzerland

Hi NicoScribe, Since your commit on File:Flag of Switzerland.svg, the flag of Switzerland does not appear on the french wikipedia (see [4]). I don't understand what happend and how to fix it. Do you have an idea? Thanks. 212.224.232.218 11:36, 5 August 2019 (UTC)

Hi,

The template fr:Modèle:SUI-d is using File:Flag of Switzerland.svg, but my modification of this file should not alter its display. I see a correct display of the file in, for instance, the following pages:

• Police cars by country#Switzerland
• fr:Modèle:SUI-d
• fr:Christophe Blain
• fr:Chersonèse en Crète
• en:Auguste Piccard (PX-8)
• sv:Schweiz herrlandslag i ishockey
• de:Olympische Geschichte der Schweiz

Do you see a problem of display of File:Flag of Switzerland.svg in one of these pages? Regards --NicoScribe (talk) 06:19, 6 August 2019 (UTC)

Hi, I know your revert should not modify the model. The flag of Switzerland is not loading on the pages using fr:Modèle:SUI-d but the model did not change since 2 years, neither fr:Modèle:CIO-d. All other flags are ok. Maybe it's because of its special shape. Here is what I see ([5]). 109.89.0.94 10:19, 6 August 2019 (UTC)
