- I tried to upload an MP3 file of my arrangement to Pachelbel's canon, based on characters I copied from the MUSESCORE website and edited using the software. (another rendering of mine is there under username 5484472) Thank you. JL5484427 (talk) 05:13, 13 October 2024 (UTC)

- Hello, I mainly work on Vietnamese and English Wikipedia, there are many outdated press logo images, small size, blurry character portraits that need to be uploaded to better versions, previously because I could not overwrite the images, I had to upload new images myself. I hope you can grant me the right to overwrite the images. Thank you. CalCoWSpiBudSu (talk) 12:20, 25 October 2024 (UTC)

- I'm trying to upload some MP3 files of songs/live performances from a band that releases them on bandcamp without a copyright so people can bootleg them freely. Would it be possible to have my MP3 upload ability enabled? Scu ba (talk) 18:29, 25 October 2024 (UTC)
- It's definitely not part of Commons aims to "bootleg" songs. Additionally, you were blocked for a 2nd time for uploading copyvios last year, and I see from your talk page that you had some copyvios from this year. That is definitely concerning to me. MP3s are also complex as far as copyright because the composition also has to be public domain or explicitly freely licensed in addition to performance and the recording. Abzeronow (talk) 18:39, 25 October 2024 (UTC)
- These are explicitly stated as having been released into the public domain by the band themselves. The "bootlegger" is the name of the website that the band runs. To quote the disclaimer on the website: If anyone wants to release these albums, you’re free to do so. Here you’ll find links to audio files and cover art. Feel free to get creative with it if you like - it’s yours. Scu ba (talk) 19:34, 25 October 2024 (UTC)

- I'm trying to upload some MP3 files of songs/live performances that a band has released their copyright on. However, when trying to do so I am given an error that MP3 uploads are disabled by default. I'm not sure if this is the right permission to ask for but it's the only other one on this page talking about MP3 files. If this isn't the right permission to ask for please point me in the right direction. Scu ba (talk) 18:19, 25 October 2024 (UTC)
- Not done - please ask above in the Autopatrolled section. Mp3 files are disabled to be uploaded by default for non-autopatrolled users. Regards, Aafi (talk) 18:20, 25 October 2024 (UTC)

- I often make minor changes to media files, in particular I often need to make minor changes to File:Wide area synchronous grid (Eurasia, Mediterranean).png which is used across multiple wikis so creating new versions every time is impractical, and I edit other files too, mainly on English Wikipedia. Apparently I now need autopatrol right on mediawiki to modify this file, even though I'm the primary contributor to it. Thank you. GliderMaven (talk) 17:04, 26 October 2024 (UTC)
- I've enabled overwriting on the file mentioned. Your edit count is still rather low, so I'd like that to be increased. Abzeronow (talk) 17:29, 26 October 2024 (UTC)

- I tend to make a lot of tedious edits involving categories, so being able to use AWB would be very useful. I have AWB permission on enwiki (verify), if that helps. Suntooooth (talk) 02:07, 24 October 2024 (UTC)

- Hello, I have made several edit requests to adapt license templates to dark mode, all of which have been granted. Feel free to only grant this for a few months, I don't expect a long-term need once these are adapted. Thank you. Queen of Hearts (talk) 23:46, 23 October 2024 (UTC)
- Support Trusted user. All the Best -- Chuck Talk 03:12, 24 October 2024 (UTC)
- @Queen of Hearts: Happy to grant - how would you advice "temporary"? Six-months or a year? Regards, Aafi (talk) 05:37, 24 October 2024 (UTC)
- @Aafi, six months would be good. Cheers Queen of Hearts (talk) 05:59, 24 October 2024 (UTC)

Filemover

As a rough guideline, administrators usually require editors to have made at least 1,000 useful, non-botlike edits or a large amount of justified renaming requests at Commons before they will consider granting the filemover right. |

- I contribute to heraldry, where I regularly come across minor errors that I could deal with myself, instead of adding to the burden of others;

- I’d like to request file mover rights so I can fix (both self and importing) error,according to guidelines, by myself. I often come across files that need renaming for better clarity, accuracy, and consistency. Having these rights would help me contribute more efficiently (while doing category maintenance, like the one I made for DJs); moreover it will avoid overloading rename requests and relative categories (where I can also help with this right). Thank you. GioviPen GP msg 11:13, 14 October 2024 (UTC)
- Right now there are already several files that I should rename, but I would wait to receive the flag to do so (instead of making the request etc) GioviPen GP msg 00:50, 15 October 2024 (UTC)

- I'm kind of an airhead and sometimes misname my own images. Mostly I just don't want to put the burden of my own mistakes onto other editors or deal with that unpredictable latency, but I may also use this to fix obvious errors within the taxonomy of decapod crustaceans if I randomly come across any. Thank you. :) TheTechnician27 (talk) 16:46, 22 October 2024 (UTC)
