Category move commandsEdit
| Rename Category:Langevin Block to Category:Office of the Prime Minister and the Privy Council building (0 entries moved, 31 to go) (Requested by RA0808) Reason provided: Align with new official name, per EN Wikipedia article title - Admin: Approve |
| Rename Category:Luftwaffe Hangars to Category:Luftwaffe Hangars (Wehrmacht) (7 entries moved, 0 to go) (Requested by Doovele) Reason provided: 1) So far, there are only Wehrmacht hangars in this category. 2) This category should be a subcategory of Luftwaffe (Wehrmacht). - Admin: Approve |
| Rename Category:Crockerton, Wiltshire to Category:Crockerton (0 entries moved, 18 to go) (Requested by Wire723) Reason provided: Unambiguous placename - Admin: Approve |

| Rename Category:Kurenivsko-Chervonoarmiyska Line to Category:Obolonsko-Teremkivska Line (0 entries moved, 22 to go) (Requested by Maximaximum) Reason provided: Metro line was renamed; because Ukrainian metro lines have no common English name (unlike "Kiev" and "Odessa") keep on using the old name of the line makes no sense - Admin: Approve |
Category moves declined or discussedEdit
{{move cat|Cervus albirostris|Przewalskium albirostris|first name is no more valid ; Przewalskium albirostris is preferred by IUCN & Mammal Species of the World (Przewalskium albitrostre by ITIS)|A1AA1A}}
- IUCN says "This species was formerly classified in a distinct genus as Przewalskium albirostris, however, morphological, behavioural and genetic analyses align this species with the Red Deer clade (Wilson and Mittermeier 2011)." Feel free to start a CfD request. --Achim (talk) 18:29, 10 August 2017 (UTC)
{{move cat|Alan Simpson (U.S. politician)|Alan Simpson (American politician)|Consistency with Wikipedia article title Alan Simpson (American politician)}}
- I don't think this move is needed, consistency with en: wiki was never a reason. I had a quick look at naming of politicians, options are adding (politician) or (STATE politician). Only a few have (American politician), (U.S. politician) is far more common. -- Deadstar (msg) 16:24, 20 November 2017 (UTC)
- Perfect! =) I requested the article to be moved then: en:Talk:Alan_Simpson_(American_politician)#Requested_move_24_March_2018. --Saippuakauppias (talk) 02:20, 24 March 2018 (UTC)
{{move cat|York Museum Gardens|Museum Gardens, York|According to maps, the place name is not part of the name of the park.}}
- Schlosser67, see 1 and 2. Tut mir leid, aber sogar die Postadresse enthält diese Schreibweise. --Achim (talk) 19:15, 22 November 2017 (UTC)
- Wieso muss dir hier etwas leid tun? Wenn sie sich selber so nennen (NB: Wikipedia kann auch irren, das würde ich also nie als Quelle angeben), dann ist es gut, und dann kannste den Auftrag loeschen. Auf Landkarten steht freilich meistens nur "Museum Gardens". Vielleicht einen Redirect anlegen?
In English: No need to be sorry. If this is the official name, then so be it, and we can forget about this request. Since maps often only say "Museum Gardens", a redirect might still be useful. --Schlosser67 (talk) 08:23, 23 November 2017 (UTC)

Image replacement requestsEdit
 |
To request for a file to be replaced by another file while fulfilling your work as a filemover (that is, if you moved a file, not if you feel that a file should be replaced with a better-looking one), use the "Click here to add a request relating only to a renamed file" link below, and add your request to the bottom of the page that loads using the following command: {{universal replace|OLD NAME.jpg|NEW NAME OR ANOTHER FILE.jpg|reason=STATE THE REASON FOR THE REQUEST HERE}}. Don't add any wikitext markup or sign with "~~~~" inside the template. If you are not a filemover or the replacement is not part of your work as a filemover, please add requests to the "Other requests" queue. If a request is potentially controversial, make sure you have sought consensus for it first on the file talk page or at "User talk:CommonsDelinker/commands/talk". To request for a file to be renamed, do not list it here. Instead, tag it with {{rename}} or use the "Move" function in the toolbar at the top of the file description page. |

Other requestsEdit
 |
List here requests not relating to renamed files here, such as requests for one file to be replaced with a different file. Please give a good reason why the replacement should be undertaken. Any of these requests may be declined by any administrator. If a request is potentially controversial, please discuss it first on the file talk page or at "User talk:CommonsDelinker/commands/talk". |
 |
File replacements are currently subject to severe delays because there are insufficient administrators working on this page. The issue has been reported, but in the meantime please try as far as possible not to add new requests until the backlog has been cleared. Instead, try and carry out the file replacements manually by yourself. Thanks. — Cheers, JackLee –talk– 13:55, 14 October 2013 (UTC) |
| CommonsDelinker: Replace File:Adjara.svg with File:Georgia Adjara location map.svg across all Wikimedia projects. Reason: The old "location file" has very poor quality and is incorrect. I've made new one to replace it. |
| CommonsDelinker: Replace File:Giant planes comparison.svg with File:Giant planes comparison - Updated.svg across all Wikimedia projects. Reason: Incorrect specifications in old image. New image contains dimensions sourced from the web pages of aircraft manufacturers. |
| CommonsDelinker: Replace File:US-NavyReserve-Emblem.svg with File:US Navy Reserve Crest 2017.svg across all Wikimedia projects. Reason: US Navy have updated the logo of the Reserve and the new logo should be used instead. |
| CommonsDelinker: Replace File:Bandera_mora.JPG with File:Bandera_Mora.svg across all Wikimedia projects. Reason: New, SVG version. Also, I hadn't realized I had switched the colors. The right ones are on the new vector version. |

{{universal replace|Escudo de Armas de Venezuela 2006.png|Escudo de Armas de Venezuela 2006.svg}}
- SVG version is 1 MB bigger than the PNG version. --Achim (talk) 07:34, 4 June 2017 (UTC)
- @Achim55: I don't consider this a problem, as MediaWiki generates PNG thumbnails rather than displaying an SVG directly in an article. Guanaco (talk) 03:04, 17 October 2017 (UTC)
- @Guanaco: Unfortunately the SVG file has an error - only one, but it states it will not be rendered properly because of it. Can you resolve this, or do you need assistance? Wikimandia (talk) 15:40, 17 October 2017 (UTC)
- @Wikimandia: It may not matter. I'm starting a DR due to US copyright concerns. Guanaco (talk) 01:40, 18 October 2017 (UTC)
- Oh wow, I didn't even notice it was downloaded from DeviantArt. Good call. Wikimandia (talk) 01:43, 18 October 2017 (UTC)
