Krdbot not using nowiki in "content was"

Hi again. I addressed this issue of not using nowiki in "content was" at User talk:Krd/archive/2025#Template:VRTrestore, but it has recurred with Special:Diff/1089702356 and similar edits, populating Category:Malformed deletion requests (and in this case Category:Collections of Musée Cernuschi). Please fix your bot and what it has done, and then purge Commons:Deletion requests/Archive/2025/07/24.   — 🇺🇦Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 13:22, 23 September 2025 (UTC)

I have the feeling we change this back and forth. I have now made a comment in the code for the next occurence. Krd 18:54, 23 September 2025 (UTC)

Thanks. Deletion log entries are not interpreted as wikitext, but they are so interpreted when Krdbot puts them on pages, so they should be sanitized. What possible opposing viewpoint would there be?   — 🇺🇦Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 01:21, 24 September 2025 (UTC)

Sadly I don't remember. We'll see if it arises again. Krd 07:59, 24 September 2025 (UTC)

Indeed. Johnj1995 (who thankfully fixed the problem I noticed) may notice recurrence first, though. I was pleased to see a result of your change in special:diff/1090869201.   — 🇺🇦Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 20:14, 25 September 2025 (UTC)

File:The_Brandenburg_Gate_Ballerina.webm

I have noticed that you deleted The_Brandenburg_Gate_Ballerina.webm. Please note that video is already found in the public domain on several websites. I had also written as a source, the name of the Soviet/Russian journalist who had filmed it back in 1945. In view of this, I believe it should not have been deleted.

@Krd This is a reminder to reply to my post. Benzekre (talk) 09:25, 1 April 2026 (UTC)

Please add the correct license to the file page. --Krd 09:43, 1 April 2026 (UTC)

I think I cannot, since the file has been deleted. But I can re-upload it. Can you please tell me which would be the correct license for a video which is already in public domain? Benzekre (talk) 09:46, 1 April 2026 (UTC)

Please look again. Please use the license that correctly describes the PD situation. I don't know which that is. Krd 09:52, 1 April 2026 (UTC)

Hello.

Hey, I just wanted to ask that you undelete File:Beggs, Oklahoma tornado, illuminated by a power flash.png. I got permission fron Tanner Charles to upload that, I understand that there was no ticket permission, but he didn't send the email to the VRT team. EditorShane3456 (talk) 12:39, 9 April 2026 (UTC)

Please let them send the permission. Krd 13:38, 9 April 2026 (UTC)

He said he sent it but nobody updated the permission EditorShane3456 (talk) 13:42, 9 April 2026 (UTC)

He sent it when? Krd 13:59, 9 April 2026 (UTC)

March 10th, 2026 EditorShane3456 (talk) 14:06, 9 April 2026 (UTC)

he never said any ticket number EditorShane3456 (talk) 14:37, 9 April 2026 (UTC)

Most likely they got a reply. Please ask them to check spam folder and/or send thr permission again. Krd 14:46, 9 April 2026 (UTC)

Deleting files with a clear licensing status

You recently deleted several files (1966-Demidovskij-park-iz-cosmosa.jpg, 1944-Monument-WWII.jpg and Vid-na-demidovskij-park-s-samoleta-1939-08-15-aerofoto.jpg) with a clear licensing status. For example, 1966-Demidovskij-park-iz-cosmosa.jpg had {{PD-USGov-NASA}} licence and hence is freely distributable. Can you explain why you deleted them? Iaroslav79 (talk) 02:21, 12 April 2026 (UTC)

What is the source of the files, where do you have them from? Krd 06:13, 12 April 2026 (UTC)

Restoring https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Whitney_Reynolds_in_a_Black_Dress.jpg

Hello there, My team did not fill out the initial ticket in regards to this image, we would like to request the undeletion of "Whitney_Reynolds_in_a_Black_Dress.jpg" so we can apply the proper accreditation. BoatsandTrains (talk) 19:51, 15 April 2026 (UTC)

Please provide the permission by e-mail per COM:VRT. --Krd 14:36, 16 April 2026 (UTC)

I am NOT asking you to undelete this file …

… I just want to know if you never received the permission mail from annemonagrann@adresseavisen.no sent from her on March 5, 2026. It concerned this file: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Katharina_Cibulka_outside_Nordenfjeldske_Kunstindustrimuseum_in_Trondheim.jpg Today I received a mail from Katharina Cibulka, saying that she did NOT want the photo in the article, so the deletion is perfect! :D BUT: I still wonder if you received the permission mail/tillatelsesmail sent by the photographer/copyright holder on March 5. I received my copy. There have been some mysteries in connection to permission mails lately. The copyright holders show me (screen shots) that they have sent the mail to me (and permissions-no), but I never received them!? I just hope you have! Kjersti L. (talk) 13:20, 17 April 2026 (UTC)

It was received in ticket:2026030310012651 which was still open. I have now closed it without reply per your request. I cannot read the laguage but I think it was incomplete anyway. Krd 17:31, 17 April 2026 (UTC)

Can we try reaching out regarding that file again, as we don't want to lose the image, and I do not have access to view the ticket myself. IMR2000 (talk) 14:35, 17 April 2026 (UTC)

What file, what ticket? Krd 17:31, 17 April 2026 (UTC)
