To discuss the operation of this page, please leave a message at "User talk:CommonsDelinker/commands/talk" or at the Village Pump.
This page is for editors who are not administrators to request for categories to be renamed and for files to be replaced by other files across all Wikimedia projects.
  • To request for a category to be renamed, go to the "Category moves" and follow the instructions.
  • To request for a file to be replaced by another file, for example, because the original file has been deleted or renamed, go to the appropriate sub-section of the "Image replacement requests" section and type the following command at the bottom of the relevant list: "{{universal replace|[OLD NAME.jpg]|[NEW NAME OR ANOTHER FILE.jpg]|reason=STATE THE REASON FOR THE REQUEST HERE.}}".
    • Requests relating to renamed files is for requesting occurrences of an old file name to be replaced with the new file name it has been renamed to. Click on the link in the sub-section.
    • Other requests is for listing other requests such as replacing one file with a different one.
    • Manual replacements is for listing files that must be handled manually. This sub-section is for experienced editors.

Please read the warnings below carefully before making any requests. Thanks.

Warnings


Please note:

  • No controversial name changes. All moves have to follow the language policy. Please do not request name changes that you know may be controversial (this includes, for example, renaming locations into a different local language—even if "that is the official name used there"). Do check file talk pages for objections before requesting a change here. If you wish to request such moves, please add the {{Move}} template to the category pages, or use the Categories for discussion procedure. This allows discussion on the issue to take place and objections—if any—to be made. You may wish to alert other editors to the discussion by leaving a message at the Village Pump.
If you challenge a request added here, please simply remove it and re-paste it below the "Category moves to be discussed" header down this page and add your reason for challenging it. It would also be kind to inform the requester (if signed) and invite them to discuss the requested name change.
  • Adding interwikis. Please include as many interlanguage links (interwikis) as possible in categories to be moved.
  • No replacement of images in other formats with SVGs. To avoid World War III, CommonsDelinker will ignore a command to replace an image if the new image is in an SVG format and the original is not.
  • Updating references to the new category name. It is the duty of the requester of a category move to update all references to the new category name where needed. This part of the task is not automated. (Use the "What links here" tab to find out which categories or pages are still linked to the old category name.)
  • MediaWiki limitation. If you add hundreds of requests at the same time, note that the MediaWiki software isn't able to process thousands of templates correctly for display. Thus, the statement "0 entries moved, 0 to go" may be inaccurate.
  • Bot problem. If the CommonsDelinker bot that carries out the tasks on this page is stuck for too long or you encounter other technical problems, please contact Magnus Manske.

Category moves[edit]

Request for a non controversial name change of a category:

All moves/name changes have to follow Commons policy. Please do not request changes that may be controversial.

You are fully responsible for the requested category move.

Please remember to include an explanation and your username to new requests. This makes it easier for admins to process them.

If requesting multiple moves for the same reason, please copy-and-paste the reason in.
Good explanations are short, clear, and concise, such as "typo", "full name", "consistency with related categories", and so on. Longer explanations are useful in complicated issues.

Use the following command template (please fill out all fields and stick on the exact format):

{{move cat|Old cat name|New cat name|3=Explanation|user={{subst:REVISIONUSER}}}}
Example
{{move cat|Nice, Palais de Nice|Palais de Nice|3=The first word "Nice" is unnecessary.|user={{subst:REVISIONUSER}}}}

Updating references to the new category name is the duty of the requester. Update all references to the new category name where needed. This part of the task is not automated. (Use the "What links here" tab to find out which categories or pages are still linked to the old category name.)

Wrong categories[edit]

Hi, I have a probleme with some categories about churches. In France, in Aveyron department, in commune of Manhac are 2 Saint Peter churches — first in Manhac (seat of the commune; Category:Église de Manhac) and other in the village named Naves. But the second church has the category in commons under the name Category:Église Saint-Pierre de Manhac, which is misleading. I wanted to transfer it under the name "Église Saint-Pierre de Naves", but this is a redirect for Category:Église Saint-Pierre (Naves), other church which has the same church and town, but it is located in Corrèze department.

So could someone rename the categories as below? :

In each of these categories, we could write a note about other churches of the same name. For example for the Saint Peter church in Manhac: "not to be confused with the other church is this commune Saint Peter church in Naves (Aveyron)".

Unfortunately for me it is technically too complicated. Thank you in advance for your help :) Tournasol7 (talk) 16:03, 15 May 2021 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Replace images with .svg version[edit]

I am active in the SVG project, converting raster graphics into scalable vector graphics (mainly coat of arms). The new images have a better quality but I always need to replace all occurrences of the old image in all articles, templates and in all language wikis by hand which sometimes takes longer than creating the new .svg image. I know that the bot currently will not replace raster graphics with a .svg file. This rule was 15 years ago (in 2007 maybe .svg were not that popular), has the opinion about this rule changed or is there room for a new discussion?

As I am creating .svgs from raster graphics I need to replaces the old image manually on all sites in all MediaWiki occurrences (Wikipedia (all languages), Wikidata,...). Maxwxyz (talk) 08:52, 17 July 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Jon, nearly all of the names of the subcategories of Category:Media from the National Archives of Norway end "...(Arkivverket)". Maybe moving the other way round? --Achim55 (talk) 20:45, 17 November 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]
@Achim55: I believe that was done by the person who uploaded from the institution to avoid "polluting" existing categories with lots of new yet-unsorted pictures (many of these categories could do with some subcategories themselves). In this case, however, all the existing photos in Category:Reinbeitekommisjonen av 1913 are also from Arkivverket, so it is better to just use the un-disambiguated name.

OK, it is not possible to upload when the original version is exist (Upload Wizard shows error message, that some files are duplicates). So can you delete it immediatelly? Thank you. --Palu (talk) 12:28, 6 February 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Palu, tomu nerozumím. Do you want to rename a category or a file or re-upload a file? Zde můžete použít češtinu. --Achim55 (talk) 13:23, 6 February 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Dobrý den, potřebuju rychle smazat celou kategorii včetně souboru, abych mohl nahrát kompletní verzi s jinym číslováním souboru. Palu (talk) 16:10, 6 February 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Ahoj Palu, existuje způsob, jak přejmenovat soubory, takže nové nahrávání není nutné. Pokud nám poskytnete informace, jak se mají názvy souborů změnit, můžeme to udělat. --Achim55 (talk) 17:02, 6 February 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
OK, jsem si jist, že smazat je a nahrát znovu je daleko rychlejší a jednodušší cesta - jak v hledání správné posloupnosti při přejmenovávání, tak v načítání souborů do Commons, tak v psaní nového OTRS mailu autorem, ale pokud chcete takto, tak klidně. Kdybyste je ovšem smazal, už to bylo podle mě dávno vyřešené.
Jdeme na to tedy vaším způsobem. Do stejné kategorie jsem nahrál pouze neduplicitní soubory pod názvy "Druhá várka", prosím o přejmenování VŠECH souborů v té kategorii tak, aby se obě skupiny sloučily do řady "File:Už jsme doma na výpravě za křtem alba Kry na Špicberky xxx.jpg", nicméně aby posloupnost 001, 002, ... odpovídala posloupnosti jejich datumů. Čili nestačí navázat na 169, protože fotky obou skupin jsou časově promíchané. Moc děkuji. --Palu (talk) 18:52, 6 February 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Nerozuměli jste. Nebudu nic mazat. Ahoj, --Achim55 (talk) 19:03, 6 February 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
@Achim55: Maybe the English will be better, because I dont expect you will something delete, I got that you will not.
My new request is to merge both batches of photos in the category (the original and the new one "Druhá várka xxx.jpg") to one name set named "File:Už jsme doma na výpravě za křtem alba Kry na Špicberky xxx.jpg" but sorted by date (001 is the oldest one, 191 is the newest one). In case we will delete and re-upload, it will be easier according to my opinion, because this work will automatically make computer during upload, but this is also way. Thank you very much for any quick solution. --Palu (talk) 19:10, 6 February 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Sorry, I don't get it. Pinging Michal for further action. Bulk renaming can be done by my bot if I get a list or an exact pattern. --Achim55 (talk) 19:20, 6 February 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Thank you :) --Palu (talk) 19:26, 6 February 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
✓ Done OK sorted, the files have been deleted. Palu will reupload shortly them under new names. Podzemnik (talk) 21:09, 6 February 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Two double categories[edit]

Hello, can someone please delete Category:U-Bahn stations in Stuttgart and Category:U-Bahn-Station Staatsgalerie, which are redundant duplicates of Category:Tram stops in Stuttgart and Category:Stadtbahnhaltestelle Staatsgalerie, respectively. I have already moved the two images, which were categorised in the Staatsgalerie category to the more appropriate one. Thanks, Metrophil (talk) 16:19, 13 February 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

@Metrophil: I'll delete them. Normally, this sort of request should come through CfD, though. - Jmabel ! talk 21:30, 25 March 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
