Your speedy deletion of File:Ann-Helén Laestadius - Hei fávru - Inari Saami.jpg as advertising spam
[edit]
Hi. You deleted File:Ann-Helén Laestadius - Hei fávru - Inari Saami.jpg, which was uploaded by Muotâ as advertising spam inspite of COM:INUSE. That file is within the scope of the Inari Saami Wikipedia and was being used to illustrate the article of the very book the book cover is from, which goes against COM:INUSE:
A media file that is in use on one of the other projects of the Wikimedia Foundation is considered automatically to be useful for an educational purpose
and
It should be stressed that Commons does not overrule other projects about what is in scope. If an image is in use on another project (aside from use on talk pages or user pages), that is enough for it to be within scope.
Furthermore, you have not left any sort of message on Muotâ's talk page to say it was being deleted or why. I would appreciate it if you would undelete it and also restore it in the article on smnwiki it was used in, which you incorrectly tagged as advertising spam. I have declined your spurious request for the article to be speedy deleted as spam there. - Yupik (talk) 02:36, 9 September 2024 (UTC)
- I've undeleted it. I'm not convinced that it isn't spam, but I'm using Google Translate and you're a local admin and presumably speak the language. The Squirrel Conspiracy (talk) 02:59, 9 September 2024 (UTC)
- Thank you. There is no Google Translate for Inari Saami, so not sure what it's telling you. I think it's important that Inari Saami speakers can see their own literature reflected in Wikipedia and this was the first time we could upload the cover of a book to illustrate one of the articles. The article is also connected to other important pages on the Inari Saami Wikipedia such as the author's page and "Books in Saami languages published in 2024", so it feels off that both the image and the article were marked as advertising spam. - Yupik (talk) 09:47, 9 September 2024 (UTC)
