Upload the original audio as a new version

[edit]

If this is technically possible, rename this file to “United States Navy Band — Anthem of Ukraine.mp3” and upload [1] as a new version of this file with the description “the original audio instead of lossy re-encodings”. VSL (talk) 06:12, 6 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Is there any reason for why you can't just upload the mp3 as a new file under the desired name without having to involve this file? TommyG (talk) 06:24, 6 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@TommyG: The new file would be a duplicate. This file is widely used, so it’s better just to update it. VSL (talk) 07:07, 6 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
No, it wouldn't be a duplicate, it would be a different format. This is not considered a duplicate file on Commons. There's plenty of instances of the same image existing in different formats, tiff and jpg f.ex. TommyG (talk) 07:48, 6 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@TommyG: That’s right, not a duplicate, but it would be an original and better quality version, and this .oga file would become redundant and candidate for deletion. VSL (talk) 08:20, 6 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I'm confused why I was pinged here. SHB2000 (talk) 23:56, 9 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Users with file moving rights were pinged. VSL (talk) 23:58, 9 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

same here. @VSL: Don’t do it again. -- Tuválkin ✉ ✇ 00:00, 10 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I suggest VSL understand that a file with different format will not be a duplicate, reading COM:Dupe. Please do not mention to filemovers recklessly just because the discussion is stalled. --TKsdik8900 (talk) 00:52, 10 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@TKsdik8900 @TommyG See Commons:Overwriting existing files: “DO overwrite… replacement with higher resolution versions of the same file”. VSL (talk) 10:05, 10 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I thought it is impossible to move to a file name that has a different mimetype (audio/oga vs audio/mp3) associated (but it would be possible to move .ogg to .oga, if the mimetype is audio/oga)? C.Suthorn (@Life_is@no-pony.farm) (talk) 19:08, 10 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@TommyG Could anyone with file moving rights clarify or try to do it? VSL (talk) 20:38, 10 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
