Thanks for uploading File:Puzzled Logo.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 17:55, 25 October 2018 (UTC)

Hi, I'm RonBot, a script that checks new non-free file uploads. I have found that the subject image that you recently uploaded was more than 5% in excess of the Non-free content guideline size of 100,000 pixels. I have tagged the image for a standard reduction, which (for jpg/gif/png/svg files) normally happens within a day. Please check the reduced image, and make sure that the image is not excessively corrupted. Other files will be added to Category:Wikipedia non-free file size reduction requests for manual processing. There is a full seven-day period before the original oversized image will be hidden; during that time you might want to consider editing the original image yourself (perhaps an initial crop to allow a smaller reduction or none at all). A formula for calculation the desired size can be found at WP:Image resolution, along with instructions on how to tag the image in the rare cases that it requires an oversized image (typically about 0.2% of non-free uploads are tagged as necessarily oversized). Please contact the bot owner if you have any questions, or you can ask them at Wikipedia talk:Non-free content. See User:RonBot for info on how to not get these messages.

Hello, Salv. Regarding the page for G-Zay and his sock puppets, what's the best possible way to update it should he return again? Should we update immediately as soon as another sockpuppet is blocked or should we wait until an SPI report is filed? Thanks, Lord Sjones23 (talk - contributions) 04:35, 18 November 2018 (UTC)

Hi Salvidrim!. I removed the Boxing Bugs link from the Outpost (1981 video game) page, because reader expectation is that it will go to a page containing further information. In this case, it brings up a list of games produced by Cinematronics without any annotations. I see that as confusing, but please edit the page if there's a better option.

Hello S, Early in A Child's Christmas in Wales the young Dylan and his friend Jim Prothero witness smoke pouring from Jim's home. After the conflagration has been extinguished Dylan writes that My thanks to you for your efforts to keep the 'pedia readable in case the firemen chose one of our articles :-) Best wishes to you and yours and happy editing in 2019.

Hello Salvidrim, I feel the previous AfD (Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Sameer Goswami) was about a politician so can you please check the deleted article and if so do you mind reverting your edit. Thank you – GSS (talk|c|em) 08:46, 23 December 2018 (UTC)
