- Before reporting one or more users here, try to resolve the dispute by discussing with them first. (Exception: obvious vandal accounts, spambots, etc.)
- Keep your report as short as possible, but include links as evidence.
- Remember to sign and date all comments using four tildes (
~~~~), which translates into a signature and a time stamp. - Notify the user(s) concerned via their user talk page(s).
{{subst:Discussion-notice|noticeboard=COM:AN/U|thread=|reason=}}is available for this. - It is important to keep a cool head, especially when responding to comments against you or your edits.

- Administrators: Please make a note if a report is dealt with, to avoid unnecessary responses by other admins.
User:Felipelanini[edit]
Persistent copyright violations even after first warning. The user has now started to flickwashing pictures to justify their uploads here. Kacamata! Dimmi!!! 22:45, 22 September 2022 (UTC)
Different image from source is being used[edit]
According the File:อภิรัชต์ คงสมพงษ์.jpg, the source (https://hilight.kapook.com/img_cms2/user/1_1313.jpg) uses different image so this image is not reliable and should be changed or removed. White Bangkaew (talk) 01:42, 23 September 2022 (UTC)
- This should have been posted to Commons:Village pump/Copyright. I have nominated the file for deletion, see Commons:Deletion requests/File:อภิรัชต์ คงสมพงษ์.jpg. Verbcatcher (talk) 02:48, 23 September 2022 (UTC)
User:Дагестан 1999[edit]
Дагестан 1999 (talk · contributions · Move log · block log · uploads · Abuse filter log) : Another copyvio upload after multiple deletions, warnings and blocks. Xunks (talk) 04:54, 23 September 2022 (UTC)
Done. One year block (third block). I deleted speedily one copyvio. Taivo (talk) 09:18, 23 September 2022 (UTC)
Tamara744 and GuyPiggys1[edit]
Users GuyPiggys1 (talk · contributions · Move log · block log · uploads · Abuse filter log) and Tamara744 (talk · contributions · Move log · block log · uploads · Abuse filter log) seem to be the same person, uploading out-of-scope images and logos. I warned them but an administrator should evaluated if they should be blocked and their uploads deleted. Pierre cb (talk) 04:17, 26 September 2022 (UTC)
- Done I blocked the sock and warned the main account. All OoS images deleted. Yann (talk) 10:03, 26 September 2022 (UTC)
Unconstructive editing and hounding by User:Yann[edit]
I was basely reported to this board by User:Yann about a month ago. Then like 2 weeks after that he basely blocked me for a week for violating a warning he supposedly gave me not to communicate with certain users that he had never actually given me. In the meantime I've been doing maintenance on creator templates. Part of which involved at the recommendation of User:Jarekt transferring single file templates which are unlikely to get more files over to Wikidata panels since they cause problems with the maintenance categories and aren't necessary anyway. Yann reverted my edits though and unilaterally changed the guideline for creator templates to say that is fine to use them single file templates which are unlikely to get more files. Which I reverted and then I left him a message on his talk page saying I was fine with the wording of the guideline being changed to include single file templates as long as it reflected that they aren't necessary, but I recommend there be a discussion about it on the templates talk page first.
He subsequently ignored the message, never started a discussion about it anywhere, and didn't edit the templates guideline again. So I went about my business thanking it wasn't an issue he really cared about. Then earlier when I nominated a creator template for deletion after I transferred the one file it was being used on into a Wikidata link like User:Jarekt said to do User:Yann left me a message on my talk page accusing me of vandalism and threatening to block me for supposedly creating speedy deletion requests for templates that are in use. There's two problems with that though, 1. The template was only in use because he reverted my edited where I converted the file it was being used on originally to a Wikidata entry. So in no was the template in use when nominated it for deletion. 2. I had already told him I was following what User:Jarekt had recommended.
An administrator threatening someone with a block over something that another administrator said was fine is just ridiculous and extremely unconstructive. Especially since User:Yann knew full well that I had discussed it with User:Jarekt before he left the threatening message on my talk page. It also seriously comes off like COM:HOUNDING since he has basely tried to get me blocked and blocked me before. More so since he was unwilling to go through the normal resolution processes first, like talking to me about it when I left him the message, starting a discussion on the templates talk page, or even discussing it with User:Jarekt. He clearly has issues with not following the normal routes users should take to resolve things and it also seem like he's COM:HOUNDING me in the process since he keeps coming at me with completely baseless nonsense. I'd appreciate if both that and the creator template thing were worked out. I don't really feel like being hounded or blocked just for doing something an administrator recommended.

Editwarring by Adamant1[edit]
Adamant1 seems to claim ownership of Commons:Creator and reverts every attempt to improve the text. As I understand it they are in favor of deprecating the template, or at least minimize its use, but they haven't actually proposed this. In the meantime, it's in use, and it must be possible for others to change the wording. We're now back at somewhat broken English. Their latest revert actually removed the very maintenance argument that Adamant has repeatedly made on user talk pages and the protection noticeboard.
