Gmyazbeckk

Continued creation of AI-generated images.

Commons:Deletion requests/File:نسيم يوسف يزبك.png was created because the image was AI-generated; the UDR failed.

On 2 August, they uploaded another AI-generated image; I am trying to get it deleted. Does any admin want to block them on Commons, since they're already indeffed on Arabic Wikipedia? Commons:Administrators' noticeboard/Vandalism/Archive 29#Gmyazbeckk ended without action after they swore only a week ago to stop uploading personal works and be a constructive contributor.

Block request for Charly Man1

Charly Man1 (talk · contributions · Statistics · Recent activity · block log · User rights log · uploads · Global account information)

It's a block evasion of FlyDutch0 and also a global lock evasion. I'm a checkuser on the Russian Wikipedia. P.S.: I would also suggest to remove / hide their "contributions" on Commons, which revolve around the topic of naked children, as it was done with their previous account. -- Q-bit array (talk) 10:35, 6 August 2026 (UTC)

I have indeffed the user for block/lock evasion. Would leave the files for someone else as the images are not new but just copies of existing ones. Shaan SenguptaTalk 11:45, 6 August 2026 (UTC)
I have absolutely no problem wiping unused uploads by lock evading accounts. Gone per CSD G3. The Squirrel Conspiracy (talk) 23:48, 6 August 2026 (UTC)

Block request for Kenigtlym2

Kenigtlym2 (talk · contributions · Statistics · Recent activity · block log · User rights log · uploads · Global account information)

This user is a sockpuppet of Milan Szymon Szulc. I checked his old GlyphWiki page, with his user nickname being called “szulc220” (which is a modified version of Szulc), he says he’s the owner of KenigMoji, aka. Kenig (shortened version). Also, he combines his username with the suffix “-tlym2”. This user is also doing the same behavior as Milan Szymon Szulc and Szulc is also working the current user. I think he likes Kenig much. Hillsilo (talk) 02:08, 8 August 2026 (UTC)

This can be done whether or not Commons:Requests for checkuser/Case/Milan Szymon Szulc comes out positive.   — 🇺🇦Jeff G. please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 12:50, 8 August 2026 (UTC)

Block and suppres username forLula_ladrão_reincidente_a_Polícia_Federal_vai_te_pegar

Username is a political message with name-calling and a threat to the current President of Brazil: "Lula, you persistent thief, the Federal Police will catch you". Munter He (talk) 18:50, 9 August 2026 (UTC)

 Support.   — 🇺🇦Jeff G. please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 19:29, 9 August 2026 (UTC)
✓ Done indef-blocked as an inappropriate filename. However, I don't see this as so inappropriate as to require suppression of where it may have been used.
Upload File:Bandeira da Polícia Federal.png is licensed as {{Cc-by-sa-4.0}} Since the author credit is not to this user (it just reads "Agente Pereira"), it wouldn't force someone to attribute this offensive name to reuse the file. That does raise an interesting potential issue for the future: what do we do if an otherwise valid license requires an offensive attribution? - Jmabel ! talk 01:01, 10 August 2026 (UTC)
@Jmabel: what about quotation marks on both sides of the username? Whyiseverythingalreadyused (t · c · he/him) 15:45, 10 August 2026 (UTC)
Or this?

Wikimedia user "Lula ladrão reincidente a Polícia Federal vai te pegar"

Whyiseverythingalreadyused (t · c · he/him) 15:45, 10 August 2026 (UTC)
Sure. But what if it was something even more offensive: e.g. a Nazi slogan, or something praising pedophilia? What if it was the URL of a gambling site, or the phone number of something where you are charged if you dial it? We probably ought to have a policy that requiring such an inappropriate attribution makes the file unacceptable. - Jmabel ! talk 18:21, 10 August 2026 (UTC)

Block request for User:Nexusdude

Nexusdude (talk · contributions · Move log · block log · uploads · Abuse filter log)  I don't know how many times a user can upload the same copyrighted image over and over to Commons before someone actually takes notice and blocks them. -- Veggies (talk) 02:37, 10 August 2026 (UTC)

 Comment, can you elaborate on how this user "upload the same copyrighted image over and over to Commons"? From the logs, I only see the user uploaded the 2 files in 13 and 19 May 2026, and never made any edits since. Thanks. Tvpuppy (talk) 06:21, 10 August 2026 (UTC)
@Tvpuppy: Are you unable to see his talk page where it shows the warnings he received when he previously uploaded the file as a PNG? The warning states that the file was previously uploaded and deleted even then. -- Veggies (talk) 07:30, 10 August 2026 (UTC)
Both are mugshots of the same person, but the image is not the same. And @Veggies, Tvpuppy is 100% correct in what they said. Anyways, file deleted, user warned. No action at this time because account is stale for more than two months now. Shaan SenguptaTalk 08:15, 10 August 2026 (UTC)
@Veggies: The talk page shows the warnings were made on 20 May and 21 May 2026, after the user uploaded both images, and the user has not made any edits since. Thanks. Tvpuppy (talk) 09:41, 10 August 2026 (UTC)
