{{{1}}}

The file [[commons:{{{1}}}]], which is used on a very large number of pages ([[Special:WhatLinksHere/{{{1}}}|links]]), has been marked for {{{2}}} deletion on Wikimedia Commons for the following reason: {{{3}}}. Rather than notify a large number of talk pages I am raising this on WP:AN and WP:VP to obtain the right intervention.

What to do

Speedy deletions at commons tend to take longer than they do on Wikipedia, so there is time to respond. If you feel the deletion can be contested then please do so (commons:COM:SPEEDY has further information). Otherwise:

  • Check for the type of usage in articles and templates (usually infoboxes)
  • If the deletion of the image will cause a problem, try to fix it:
    • Using a local redirect
    • By using a different image (i.e. in an infobox)
    • Contact someone at commons to delay deletion or work out a plan to overcome issues with the deletion

A further notification will be placed if/when the image is deleted. This notification is provided by a Bot, currently under trial --~~
