Only users with Autopatrol rights may now overwrite files uploaded by other users. You may request autopatrol rights here. If you are currently ineligible for autopatrol rights, you may request an exception for a particular file on this page. This page is only for requests on the technical permission; proposals for file improvements should be made on the file talk page.
Make sure that your planned overwriting complies with the file overwriting guidelines.
The template that allows overwriting a file ({{Allow Overwriting}}) may be placed by any user with patrol rights.
I would like to overwrite a few files. Former logos of the Brazilian Football Confederation.
The first file I want to overwrite is one used in many userboxes, but contains an outdated logo. I want to overwrite it with a raster version of the current logo.
For the second file, I want to update the logo to the current one I linked above.
For the third one, I wanted to correct the proportions, as they're out of proportion. They're wider than they should be. However, as my renaming request got denied (I wanted to rename it because it's no longer the current logo), I'll have to overwrite it with the current logo mentioned above.
Now there's a fourth file I want to overwrite also. I also asked to rename it too.
Candidyeoman55 (talk) 16:03, 30 April 2026 (UTC)
- You can't overwrite any of these with the new logo. I can allow you to fix the proportions of the third one, but it would have to be the version used there. Also renaming to change the language of the name is a big no no. (EDIT: I've renamed the third file. I can rename others (has to be the same language that the file name is in)) Abzeronow (talk) 03:32, 1 May 2026 (UTC)
- The third one is out of proportion, and the fourth one should be renamed to indicate it is a variant and was never the official logo. The first one is being used in many user infoboxes, and I don't know if there's a mass replacement bot here to replace it with the current logo. Candidyeoman55 (talk) 10:04, 2 May 2026 (UTC)
Request overwrite of File:David blair.png
Hello! Would like to request overwrite of this file. I have a better quality version of this to replace it with. Omnis Scientia (talk) 11:44, 6 May 2026 (UTC)
- Source? Abzeronow (talk) 03:22, 7 May 2026 (UTC)
- @Abzeronow, sorry for getting back at you so late! Here is where I found it: https://www.titanicofficers.com/titanic_11_blair_08.html
- It is undated but, comparing it to other photographs on the website, it appears to have been taken in the 1920s. Omnis Scientia (talk) 08:20, 8 May 2026 (UTC)
- @Omnis Scientia: I'll allow the uncropped version, but it needs to be grayscale like the current photo. Abzeronow (talk) 02:39, 9 May 2026 (UTC)
- @Abzeronow, I can do that with a filter on my computer which I hope would be okay. Omnis Scientia (talk) 07:01, 9 May 2026 (UTC)

Allow overwriting of a few files.
I requested their vectorization on the English Wikipedia's Graphics Lab Illustration Workshop. However, the graphist left some parts that should be white as transparent in these files.
These are the files: The first, the second, the third, the fourth, and the fifth.

Allow overwriting of File:Flag of the Cordeliers Battalion.svg, File:Drapeau révolutionnaire 1.svg, File:Drapeau révolutionnaire 2.svg and File:Drapeau révolutionnaire 3.svg
I have made new versions of these flags with better colours and fixed errors in the structure of the Cordeliers one Martufellon (talk) 15:07, 7 May 2026 (UTC)
- Cordeliers looks to be right as far as white in upper left and red in upper right. The rest have been done. Abzeronow (talk) 02:50, 9 May 2026 (UTC)
- I wasn't referring to the colours' positions, I was referring to the presence of a thin brown border in the red-blue parts, that's why I have made a new version of that file from scratch Martufellon (talk) 03:39, 9 May 2026 (UTC)
Allow overwriting of File:Stage5.svg
I have – using Inkscape – created a version of File:Stage5.svg in which the labels “Birth Rate” and “Total Population” are set to flush left, and “Death Rate” is set to flush right.
I have done this in order to enable translation into other languages even if the translated label text is longer than the original English text. For example, the German translation for “Birth Rate” is “Geburtenrate”, which does not fit when the text is set to centered, as is currently the case (cf. ). I have uploaded my edited version here: (downloadable until 2026-06-06, 16:38 UTC), so you can check whether my file actually still works with the translated text system. --15000 Röntgen (talk) 16:41, 7 May 2026 (UTC)

Allow overwriting of File:Ghzm.Baden 1803-1830.svg
I have corrected Fields 6, 26, 27 & 28 (reference), as they didn't match the blazon at https://digital.blb-karlsruhe.de/blbihd/periodical/pageview/742531 ((Field 29 may still be incorrect, the blazon specifies that it's the arms of the city but describes the arch-bishophric's arms, so I didn't change that)) and would like to upload a new version of the file on that page.
It seems the mistakes were due to using the current arms as reference, instead of the blazons used and described when the decree was made. Mangue Miyazaki (talk) 20:06, 7 May 2026 (UTC)

Allow overwriting of File:2022 Angolan general election results map.svg
I request permission to submit a new version of the file named "File:2022 Angolan general election results map.svg" due to an inconsistency in the information regarding the party leaders of the FNLA and PRS in the column listing the parties that won parliamentary seats. If necessary, you can consult the Portuguese-language article on the 2022 Angolan Elections, which contains the correct names of the respective party leaders. HallelTalk 21:42, 7 May 2026 (UTC)

I would like to request permission to overwrite File:Elisa.svg to a new version that fixes a graphical error.
If you look at the dot of the "i" on the current version of the logo there is a triangular area that is not filled with color, presumably an error from the original uploader's choice of raster to vector program.
I have a new version of the file on hand and would like to replace the 2015 version as it is used on a large number of pages.

Done You can now overwrite this file. Abzeronow (talk) 02:21, 10 May 2026 (UTC)- The amendment in the North Korean constitution mentioning South Korea with its constitutional name: "the territory of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea includes the territory bordering the People's Republic of China and the Russian Federation to the north and the Republic of Korea to the south, and the territorial sea and airspace established on it", does not mean official diplomatic recognition of South Korea. North Korea has not announced that it diplomatically recognizes South Korea. If that were the case, North Korea would have made an official announcement and this would be major breaking news internationally.
