Replied [edit]
Delicious carbuncle, thanks very much for your polite comment at my user talk page, I most appreciate the polite and kind way in which you have comported yourself recently in this discussion with me! This is to let you know that I've replied back there at my user talk page. Once again, thank you for your kindness in being polite with me! Cheers, -- Cirt (talk) 23:00, 30 January 2013 (UTC)
- Politeness is the sport of kings. Delicious carbuncle (talk) 23:19, 30 January 2013 (UTC)
Replied again over at my user talk page. -- Cirt (talk) 00:51, 31 January 2013 (UTC)
re File:Vladimir Putin caricature - Putin Rearmament Plan - by FreedomHouse.jpg [edit]
Understood, Herby, thank you for this clarification. I will keep that in mind in the future. Cheers, -- Cirt (talk) 14:58, 2 March 2013 (UTC)
- I don't think this message was for me. Delicious carbuncle (talk) 15:07, 2 March 2013 (UTC)
- Right, but just giving in a heads up as a friendly FYI, here also. I hope you and your family are doing well, Delcious carbuncle, and have a great day! Cheers, -- Cirt (talk) 15:13, 2 March 2013 (UTC)
- Thanks, Cirt, same to you. Delicious carbuncle (talk) 15:20, 2 March 2013 (UTC)

Removing categories [edit]
Hello. If you are going to remove a category [1] from the exemptions and view the false positives,[2] please promptly remove any future unrelated photographs of people that show up on the page. It is possibly libelous, and I do not want my bot involved in posting photographs of individuals to a page with the title "penises" . Magog the Ogre (talk) (contribs) 00:14, 13 March 2013 (UTC)
- Magog, I doubt very much that any reasonable person would make the assumption that I am calling anyone "a penis" because their image has inadvertently been included in a gallery of actual penises. Nonetheless, I take full responsibility for any such cases. If anyone asks, please tell them to speak to me and I will explain the mechanism by which those galleries are built and my purposes for having those galleries. Thanks. Delicious carbuncle (talk) 03:29, 13 March 2013 (UTC)
- DC having a photo of a living person at User:Delicious_carbuncle/Newly_added_penises/2013_March_1-10#7_March_2013 could be problematic as Magog the Ogre has mentioned; they have also stated that they do not want their bot being used to post photographs of individuals to a page called "penises". I would suggest that you remove that photo from the page, or I will advise MtO that you haven't complied with their request, and they can stop running that on your behalf if they so wish. russavia (talk) 16:29, 5 April 2013 (UTC)
- I think my earlier comment suffices. If this really is an issue, Russavia, I can just rename the galleries. Mattbuck's galleries of newly added "nudity" and "sexuality" images are also affected by this, so perhaps a wider discussion is in order. Delicious carbuncle (talk) 17:00, 5 April 2013 (UTC)
- I have removed the image from the gallery, as your earlier comment does not suffice unfortunately. The pages which are in Mattbuck's userspace is an issue for him to deal with MtO if MtO has an issue with them; but I don't see anything problematic as they are two all-encompassing new upload galleries, and are not restricted only to "penises", and MtO has not raised that issue with them. Please comply with bot operator' wishes when they raise issues with you; don't simply ignore them, otherwise I would suggest to them that they cease doing that run for you. russavia (talk) 17:29, 5 April 2013 (UTC)
- Russavia, given the open hostility you have shown towards me here and elsewhere, it would probably be a good idea for you to avoid me, rather than looking for ways to annoy me. I don't think a reasonable person would find any cause for concern here. However, if you want to start a wider discussion and get consensus that there actually is an issue here, I will gladly deal with the issue myself. Until then, I'm going to put the image back. Delicious carbuncle (talk) 17:54, 5 April 2013 (UTC)
- I have now removed the image, yet again, and have protected the page. Magog the Ogre has requested for the image to be removed, and have stated that they do not want their bot to be associated with adding photographs of individuals to a page entitled "penises". Their request was very, very clear. I have protected the page to ensure that you don't insert what may be a libellous addition to the page, as stated by the bot operator. If you wish to discuss this further with them, then do so, but given that you do not want to comply with their request, I can now only suggest to Magog the Ogre that they should consider cease doing that bot run for you. russavia (talk) 18:04, 5 April 2013 (UTC)

- Given the penises page presumably contains only images which turn up on my nudity results, I don't see why you even want one other than to create drama. -mattbuck (Talk) 19:48, 5 April 2013 (UTC)
- It doesn't seem to have created any drama at all until now and if Russavia hadn't involved himself here it wouldn't have created any at all. Delicious carbuncle (talk) 20:04, 5 April 2013 (UTC)
- You raise a very valid point here Mattbuck -- The images all show up on the nudity results run that MtO also runs for yourself, which I have used on the odd occasion when I have some spare time to search for potentially problematic files. So perhaps DC could now explain what purpose this "new penises" run that MtO serves that isn't covered by the run that is done for Mattbuck. And why an image of an individual who is obviously not a penis is required to be a part of that new upload gallery, particularly when concerns on the inclusion of that particular image have been raised by the bot operator. russavia (talk) 21:04, 5 April 2013 (UTC)
- Russavia, "an image of an individual who is obviously not a penis" would seem to acknowledge that the image in question is unlikely to be misunderstood by someone looking at these galleries in my userspace. I do not know if all of the images in those galleries are included on Mattbuck's pages but I am using different categories than he is so there are likely to be differences. As for your request, I could explain my purpose for compiling these galleries, but since it is you who is asking, I'm not going to and I don't believe any reason is required. So far they have been serving their purpose fairly well. Delicious carbuncle (talk) 21:20, 5 April 2013 (UTC)
- Given that the images in your galleries are clearly found, with the exceptions of images such as File:Luxor Sharia al-Mahatta R01.jpg, File:Obélisque de la Concorde, Paris 001.jpg, File:Luxor Temple.jpg and File:Luxor Temple Square R01.jpg, in the recent upload runs done for Mattbuck (I'm not too sure that the uploaders of the aforementioned files would be pleased at having their images appear in your penis gallery), plus given that you refuse to cede to requests from the bot owner, plus given that you refuse to answer questions in relation to the purpose of the galleries, I can only suggest to Magog the Ogre that they stop running this particular gallery for you as superfluous to our needs. russavia (talk) 21:59, 5 April 2013 (UTC)
- I have not "refused to cede to requests", I explained my position. I assume that if Magog wanted to pursue it, they would have. Perhaps you could more productively spend your time determining why File:Luxor Temple.jpg is categorized such that it gets picked up by Magog's bot? Delicious carbuncle (talk) 22:21, 5 April 2013 (UTC)
- I've removed the category; the gallery will no longer be updated. If DC changes his mind and is willing to prune the page on a regular basis for potentially libelous material, he may feel free to ask me and I will add it again. Magog the Ogre (talk) (contribs) 01:09, 6 April 2013 (UTC)
- I thought those facilities were provided for anyone in the community to use. I wasn't aware that bot owners were able to pick and chose who uses a public service. Delicious carbuncle (talk) 03:30, 6 April 2013 (UTC)
- Well now you know. Magog the Ogre (talk) (contribs) 16:19, 6 April 2013 (UTC)

In relation to your latest attack piece relating to an editor on this project, it should noted that the bot owner was NOT "prompted to put a stop to that." in relation to your use of their bot. That is a decision that they reached on their own, after you decided that it better to troll above, rather than comply with bot owners instructions to remove problematic images from the results that their bot was running for you. For someone who holds themselves up as a shining beacon of protection of living people and everything that goes along with it, it really wasn't wise on your part to troll others on this project with your refusal to comply with what were valid concerns relating to the use of that bot. I don't expect your ilk to be upfront and honest with others, so I have taken care of that for you with this.
I will comment in a new section in relation to the rest of your half attack piece and "All hail glorious Delicious Carbuncle" piece. Have a nice day. russavia (talk) 07:59, 30 April 2013 (UTC)
- What I wrote is my understanding of what transpired. You may disagree with my interpretation of those events, but that was really just an aside and not materially related to the larger topic. I'm not sure what "ilk" I am part of, but it isn't the ilk of trolls, so please stop referring to me as a troll or to my actions as trolling. For the record, I do not hold myself up as "a shining beacon of protection of living people and everything that goes along with it". I try to do the right thing and help where I can, but I am as fallible as anyone else and rely on others to steer me right when I have gone off course. Delicious carbuncle (talk) 15:57, 30 April 2013 (UTC)
- The edit summary which you used here (There's no point asking - you'll get no reply.) is precisely amongst the reasons that MtO stopped your usage of their bot; that being refusal to comply with their wishes, and refusal to answer questions, and basically your general trolling attitude. No need to reply; especially as you said you wouldn't. russavia (talk) 19:52, 30 April 2013 (UTC)
- You may have misunderstood what that edit summary meant. :) Delicious carbuncle (talk) 20:11, 30 April 2013 (UTC)

File:Black thong whale tail.jpeg [edit]
Hi friend, why should the upload image be deleted? fuzzy and incompetently edited is not a very good reason as to why an upload should be deleted. My upload is not breaching copyright laws, so It does not make sense to delete it.Jushne (talk) 19:19, 17 March 2013 (UTC)
- We do not need low quality images of dubious origin. If you upload the unedited original, perhaps people will stop thinking that it is a copyright violation, but it won't save that image. Delicious carbuncle (talk) 19:59, 17 March 2013 (UTC)
Let's work together and make Wikimedia Commons a cleaner place [edit]
Dear delicious carbuncle, thanks for your kind help for blanking out my page with guideline "Removing gallery of genitalia. This isn't what a user page is for", meanwhile, I found your super galary of penises, really eyes wide open, and I have helped you cleaned it up. Hope it meets your standard. Let's work together and make Wikimedia Commons a cleaner place. Thank you! :) -Bebop7 (talk) 07:40, 5 April 2013 (UTC)
- You may have misunderstood the difference between a user page and a page in user space. I look forward to working with you in the future. Delicious carbuncle (talk) 15:11, 5 April 2013 (UTC)
- +1. A userpage is acceptable for non-literal willy-waving... Rd232 (talk) 15:24, 5 April 2013 (UTC)
- Dear delicious carbuncle, first of all, I don't like non-admin Wikipedian blanking out my own userpage, as a regular user, if you don't like my page, then just don't visit it again. Secondly, why don't you clarify the purpose of your super penis gallery? Some of my works are involved, and I'm concerned --- As Commons already have its public page for penises, what are you doing?? BTW, as a Commons file uploader, it's absolutely normal to display my latest uploads in my own userpage, unlike you, have nothing to show in your userpage because you never donated a file. I've fixed my page like you fixing your penis gallery, will be happy to help the cleanup again if you like. -Bebop7 (talk) 16:08, 5 April 2013 (UTC)
- I'm not a regular user. I'm special. :) Delicious carbuncle (talk) 16:24, 5 April 2013 (UTC)
- I've moved your gallery where it belongs, per Commons:User-specific_galleries,_templates_and_categories_policy#Gallery_pages. Because of the graphic sexual nature of some of the uploads, it's not appropriate on your userpage. Rd232 (talk) 16:40, 5 April 2013 (UTC)
- That in no way states that you can't have the gallery directly on your userpage. If you're going to say that we aren't allowed galleries on our userpages, then you'll have to delete most admins' pages. As for the content, I don't really see the problem, and there's certainly no policy to justify your intrusion into another user's personal page. -mattbuck (Talk) 16:50, 5 April 2013 (UTC)
- It may not state that, but common sense does, and if you need a policy to state that, I would guess I can get community approval in under 2 weeks. Worth the bother? Rd232 (talk) 17:09, 5 April 2013 (UTC)

Don't like anyone redesigning my userpage and I've restored it. I'm just showing my latest uploads in my own page, it's reasonable and don't against any Wikimedia Commons rule. All its content are accepted by Wikimedia Commons. Feel unhappy about "willies"? Check delicious carbuncle's secret super gallery, it will help you. :) -Bebop7 (talk) 03:07, 6 April 2013 (UTC)
- They aren't secret, just in an appropriate place. You were given a chance to figure out what that meant, but you don't seem to have taken it. Delicious carbuncle (talk) 03:39, 6 April 2013 (UTC)
- Wow, "appropriate"... isn't it. :) As you provide no clarification about the purpose of your penis gallery to my concern, i'll consider the gallery is built for your own preference and interest. It's okay you like my pictures, i'll talk to my models about this news, i'm sure they're okay too. Also, i'll reflect this case in my latest blog (anonymously). Meanwhile, Rd232 seems to be an expert of adding links to "user space" on "user page", maybe you can turn to him for help to link your super gallery to your userpage so everyone can share. Cheers! :) -Bebop7 (talk) 04:08, 6 April 2013 (UTC)
- Anyone is free to view those galleries, and presumably they know what they are getting when they see the title. Why someone might want to look at them is entirely a different question. Speaking of questions, I notice that your uploads were placed into articles on the English-language Wikipedia by a user named "Moscowsky" - do you know them? According to Russianavia.net, Moscow Sky is the name of "a group of Russian business aviation companies". I'm being hassled here by an admin who is interested in Russia and aviation, and the editor who adds your uploaded images to articles shares the name of a Russian aviation company. I find the coincidence amusing, don't you? Delicious carbuncle (talk) 14:10, 6 April 2013 (UTC)
- Wow, that's interesting... Do you think I can get some flight coupons from this "Moscowsky"? It will be sweet if I can get some. I appreciate your time collecting and following up the usages of my images, you must be a super fan of me, and again, that's okay. Your new Soviet Union fly story will be spice up my blog. :) BTW, as you promised in above section "I take full responsibility for any such cases. If anyone asks, please tell them to speak to me and I will explain the mechanism by which those galleries are built and my purposes for having those galleries", so...shouldn't you answer something more to me here, as a closure of this discussion? Too bad the bot owner taken away your access, i'll try to recommend you a new bot if possible. Cheers! :) -Bebop7 (talk) 15:16, 6 April 2013 (UTC)
- Sorry, I should have been more clear - I meant if anyone with genuine concerns asks. I didn't mean you. Delicious carbuncle (talk) 15:25, 6 April 2013 (UTC)
- Bebop7, send me your details, I'll be more than happy to supply you with flight coupons to Bakui, SRiga or Gondon. russavia (talk) 18:40, 6 April 2013 (UTC)
- I knew it!:) Just by your name I have guessed that you must be an awesome expert of Gondon things and others, analyzing and collecting all the time, owning more than a trillion coupons. If you're really interested in the mentioned area, maybe you should contact my super fan Delicious carbuncle for further discussion, so you guys can improve each other. I would be thrilled to share some tips to enhance your discussion by then. Cheers! :) -Bebop7 (talk) 12:18, 7 April 2013 (UTC)
- Bebop7, as much fun as it has been having you here, you're getting tiresome. You and Russavia can carry on your "discussion" on your talk page. Feel free to let me know when you get your blog up. Thanks! Delicious carbuncle (talk) 16:59, 7 April 2013 (UTC)
- No, thank you Delicious carbuncle, for throwing this wonderful party. Everybody enjoyed. Tired of it? Please never. Always be ready for another one when you blank out someone's userpage in this way, new better drama might be on by then, we can't wait! :) -Bebop7 (talk) 01:56, 8 April 2013 (UTC)
- The only reason I haven't blanked it again is because I want to see how Rd232's efforts play out. Sometimes it's good to let people see just how wrong people here can be about things which are obvious to everyone else. Anyway, if you don't mind, it's really important to me that I have the last word in this conversation because I have very low self-esteem, so I'm going to ask you not to post here again. Thanks for your understanding in this matter. Delicious carbuncle (talk) 02:35, 8 April 2013 (UTC)

Regarding myself and my actions [edit]
Hi DC. Thanks for your comments on the AN, I apologize for sounding pissy, but the last 48 hours for me have been just about the hardest of my life. I've surrendered 8 years of work on en.wp in favor of doing the decent thing, admitting I've been a dick, and committing suicide by checkuser with administrative assistance. If you care to go back here you'll see I've been completely open about my history on here, and agreed to have both of my outstanding socks (who are here and their edits are noted) blocked. I have also made it clear what I have done here, and the fact that there is genuinely no site abuse from this account. Thanks -- BarkingFish (talk) 21:40, 15 April 2013 (UTC)

I love how there's now an unofficial dance regarding Penyulap's involvement in Commons. Killiondude (talk) 06:13, 23 April 2013 (UTC)
Russavia says [edit]
I note in your latest attack piece that you have used an image from Flickr. Do you realise that you are setting yourself up for a lawsuit? Your use of that person's likeness in a so-called piece of journalism (I prefer to call it virtual toilet paper) could reasonably lead one to assume that this person is involved in child pornography. Given that the person lives in Australia, you would be well advised to read up on Australian law in relation to libel, etc. Especially in relation to something as sensitive as child pornography, and accusations thereof. Your using that image without any context whatsoever (particularly the image description and the fact it was a humourous photo for use between friends), and it being mentioned on JW's English Wikipedia talk page, which is going to cause a streisand effect (of such) is only going to lead to potential trouble.
In light of this, I have contacted the Flickr user in question, giving them a link to the virtual toilet paper which has your name attached, and have included an archived version for their reference.
You really should be more careful, for it is disgusting that in your continued trolling, you have (long ago) lost the moral high ground in your arguments, and this is simply yet another example of such.
Yes, this really has nothing to do directly with your Commons activities, but given that you are linking yourself to this project, let me say, that I, and I imagine the rest of this project, would like to distance ourselves from your activites on a site unrelated to this project, especially as it concerns using random photographs of living people and connecting it to accusations of child pornography. You should be ashamed. russavia (talk) 08:25, 30 April 2013 (UTC)
- Russavia, you are welcome to email me if you have personal comments like this. It would probably be wiser than posting them in public. I did not choose the image that accompanied that blog post, but if the author contacts me I will pass their comments along to the site's moderators. I am sure they will be much more accommodating than the Commons community is when faced with a complaint from an image author or subject. Your disgust is duly noted.
