User:NaiPanyakorn

Repeatedly uploading copyvios since 2017, with latest block in 2020 and latest upload on 30 August 2022. --Paul_012 (talk) 12:37, 21 September 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

  • Pictogram voting comment.svg Comment Looks like the user only speaks Thai, and thinks that scanning makes it their own work. I see no attempt to explain things to them in their language. Guido den Broeder (talk) 11:43, 22 September 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]
    • All the template messages are auto-translated and will display in the user's preferred language according to their settings. They should be sufficiently clear to anyone demonstrating a minimal level of competence. The user hasn't shown any indication of interest in communicating with the project, in any language, so I don't see what further attempted correspondence would achieve. --Paul_012 (talk) 12:22, 22 September 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]
      You can't know that until you have tried. The template messages contain no information that is helpful in this instance. Guido den Broeder (talk) 12:29, 23 September 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Phoenix14061990

User:Phoenix14061990 seems to upload only copyright protected or fair use pictures. He has a talk page full of removals. After his block on ENWP, I severely get the idea that he has no idea about copyright laws and thinks that copying a picture makes it "own work". To my opinion, Wikimedia must be protected against his efforts. The Banner (talk) 10:00, 23 September 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

✓ Done. One week block. Next blocks can be longer. Taivo (talk) 14:50, 24 September 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]
