Commons file
Hi P199.
Was wondering if you could suggest a way to try and resolve this? If the overwrite is not an issue, then that's fine; however, there's still a likely copyvio available on Commons being used in a lot articles on English Wikipedia when it shouldn't. I don't mind replacing the links on English Wikipedia with the free version that has been uploaded, but I'm not sure what to do about the file's use on the other Wikimedia Projects. -- Marchjuly (talk) 08:22, 21 February 2020 (UTC)
Wallpaper format to be based from your userpage
Good day from Pulilan, Philippines, P199! I want to add a "wallpaper décor" on top my userpage - User:JWilz12345 - similar to and to be based from your userpage. I will change the color and its contents, but the formatting is the same. I'm requesting your permission to use the HTML source in your userpage. If potential problems can arise, I might credit you for the HTML source basis of the wallpaper décor. Thanks! JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 04:59, 20 March 2020 (UTC)
- @JWilz12345:Thanks for asking, but no permission or credit is needed. I myself took several ideas from other userpages, and they took it no doubt from elsewhere again. BTW, all content on WP is CC-BY-SA anyway. Regards, -- P 1 9 9 ✉ 13:56, 20 March 2020 (UTC)
- Thank you User:P199! If you wish you may check at my userpage (and also my userpages in Tagalog Wikipedia and Wikimedia Commons). Stay healthy safe and strong to you :-D JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 14:36, 20 March 2020 (UTC)
Good morning from the Philippines! :-) I decided to save space here by reusing this thread hehe. One concern, pls. help HueMan1. He's considering retirement because he felt he failed 😞 Thanks JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 04:05, 23 April 2020 (UTC)
Department of Main Roads (New South Wales) - Propsed Demerge
On 30 December 2015 you merged the article on the Department of Main Roads (New South Wales) with that of its successor organisation the Roads & Traffic Authority. I would like to see that merge undone, as I have the text ready to provide a substantial article on the establishment and history of the DMR from 1932 to 1989. --Fivestar3145 (talk) 01:26, 28 April 2020 (UTC)
- @Fivestar3145: I have no opinion on this. If you think you have enough material for a separate article, so be it, WP:Be bold. Otherwise I would suggest to add it to the history section of R&TA. Regards, -- P 1 9 9 ✉ 13:31, 28 April 2020 (UTC)
Request in fixing Wikidata item of Talaingod, Davao del Norte
Hello, may I request you to kindly fix the Wikidata item link of Talaingod, Davao del Norte? I could not find any "edit links" option in the Wikipedia sidebar. Is this something set in Wikipedia preferences? Currently, it is linked to this duplicate Wikidata item and is causing severe errors for PSGC-related templates in the page. It should instead be linked to this item. Thank you.–Sanglahi86 (talk) 05:45, 1 July 2020 (UTC)
- @Sanglahi86: just dropped by here since P199's user talk is included in my watchlist po hehe. I've fixed this error and this should be ok by now. Apparently, the enwiki link used at the original Wikidata item for Talaingod, Davao del Norte was the redirect link (Talaingod), which I suspect is related to a move attempt that eventually ended at Talk:Talaingod, Davao del Norte, and resulted in no consensus (reasonable since this centralized discussion for all uniquely-named municipalities at Mosphil talk hasn't closed yet de jure). JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 09:30, 1 July 2020 (UTC)
- @JWilz12345:: Thank you very much for the fix.–Sanglahi86 (talk) 09:54, 1 July 2020 (UTC)
Eligibility for Commons
hello P199! Is this file - File:NLEX Balintawak Toll Plaza - with billboards (Caloocan; 12-07-2019).jpg, OK for Commons? Or should it be kept locally due to presence of billboards (which I find worrying once it is now at Commons). I don't know if De minimis could be applied here. Thanks for your insight. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 23:32, 12 July 2020 (UTC)
Sorry
P199, i edited Cebu City on July 2, 2020, but the expection to one million people residing here is unnecessary, according to yourself. I am very sorry for doing a mistake, but i thought it will be expected reach millions. Thank you for your understanding. Rdp060707 (talk) 07:21, 7 August 2020 (UTC)
- @Rdp060707: No need to be sorry, I assumed good faith. Just so you know, usually we only accept the official census number as authoritative. Regards, -- P 1 9 9 ✉ 16:25, 10 August 2020 (UTC)

Re: 2020 Emilia Romagna Grand Prix
I don't absolutely need to have a Block. I meant get consensus into talk page before adding stuff as you provided for the page. I reverted more than once for a reason, not just because I don't like what you included for the page, as you think. Have a look at Eifel Styrian Tuscan Grands Prix for example in which we didnt report so much information about their origin name only because that things come from people interview.--Island92 (talk) 18:24, 31 October 2020 (UTC)

Chamberlain, Ontario
Hi there. I have a question about this edit. You removed the coordinates, yet somehow the article knows what coordinates to use? Where does it get the coordinates? Thanks! Magnolia677 (talk) 11:24, 18 December 2020 (UTC)
- Hi @Magnolia677:. Template:Coord takes the coordinates by default from Wikidata. Regards, -- P 1 9 9 ✉ 18:16, 18 December 2020 (UTC)

These templates are for my alternate timeline scenario
Since you don't let me made these infoboxes on my talk page, then I have to switch to some other sites such as Alternate History Fandom.SgtRL-3 (talk) 06:03, 25 December 2020 (UTC)
- @SgtRL-3: (comment of a page watcher) see Wikipedia:HOAX. There's no such country as Arendale, so please don't create hoax articles and hoax templates. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 07:02, 25 December 2020 (UTC)
- Yes, User:JWilz12345 is right. WP is not your personal webpage or blog, which even applies to your own userpages. Thanks. -- P 1 9 9 ✉ 23:51, 25 December 2020 (UTC)
Toronto
Hello, P199. I have seen you deleted my edit on Toronto for the metro population. I appreciate you trying to make Wikipedia accurate, but I have to ask you if I can re-add the actual population which is 2.93 Million in 2017. Sorry for my bad edit, as I am only 8 years old. Thank you, DinosaurTrexXX33 (talk) 15:08, 8 January 2021 (UTC)
- Hi @DinosaurTrexXX33: Thanks for your edits. The amount is accurate: it is the exact amount from the last census in 2016, and the statement in the article says so. We don't put estimates or guesses. Regards, -- P 1 9 9 ✉ 15:17, 8 January 2021 (UTC)
Hi, P199, THe population was not a estimate. There was somebody else on my talk page also saying the same thing. It gets me ticked off all my edits are disrespected. DinosaurTrexXX33 (talk) 16:31, 8 January 2021 (UTC)
Feb. 10, 2021 IPOPHL-Wikimedia dialogue on FOP
Hello P199! May I ask a question: are you going to attend at the upcoming IPOPHL-Wikimedia regarding FOP in the Philippines, on Feb. 10, 2021, 10 AM (UTC +8, Manila time)? See Wikipedia talk:Tambayan Philippines#Possible online meeting with IPOPHL on freedom of panorama (and possibly government-published images) for details, which also includes a link to the FB group equivalent of Wikipedia Tambayan. Though I may not personally attend due to school and personal reasons, several Filipino Wikipedians are going to attend. Non-Filipino Wikimedians are also welcome. I hope for your response as soon as possible. Thank you :-) JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 06:53, 4 February 2021 (UTC)
- Hi JWilz12345. Thanks for letting me know but I won't attend. This is not something I am involved in. Regards, -- P 1 9 9 ✉ 18:06, 4 February 2021 (UTC)

Stack effect
Thanks for the revert. I inadvertently edited an old version. --SimoneD89 (talk) 16:47, 5 April 2021 (UTC)
- Hi @SimoneD89: I figured that. I updated the template as you intended. Regards, -- P 1 9 9 ✉ 16:48, 5 April 2021 (UTC)
Is this RS?
Hi P199. Is https://www.chinalawtranslate.com/en/Copyright-Law-of-the-PRC-(2021-Version)/ a good source for Freedom of panorama#China? At Commons it has been discussed that Chinese FOP has now expanded further to include public indoor works (the "outdoor" wording was removed). This new amendment took effect on June 1, 2021. So far the 2020 version of the Chinese copyright law is not yet available on WIPO. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 03:54, 2 June 2021 (UTC)
- Hi JWilz12345. Never heard of this website, don't know anything about it. But a quick read shows that is sort of a wiki (which fails as a RS): "China Law Translate is an Interactive, Cooperative Project. Users can alter any text on the site except for the original language/original text. You don’t even need to register." But this doesn't involve user-generated content, merely user translations. So it depends on how accurate the translations are. And I really don't know its reputation in this regard. The right place to ask is Wikipedia:Reliable sources/Noticeboard. Regards, -- P 1 9 9 ✉ 13:00, 2 June 2021 (UTC)
File:UPboble.jpg
Is File:UPboble.jpg an originally freely-licensed file that was morphed into fair use sometime later? The upload log seems to indicate also that a user made an unauthorized overwriting of the file by overwriting it with a probable copyvio image. See also Wikipedia:Possibly unfree files/2012 January 24#File:UPboble.jpg.
I'm only referring to the first version of the file by Angelombb. I'm planning to add this to my userspace User:JWilz12345/PHL photos FOP where I collect those that can be transferred to Commons (or for deleted ones, those that I may request for undeletion and afterwards transfer to Commons) once FOP officially exists here. Thanks for the response in advance. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 05:03, 4 August 2021 (UTC)

Surigao City Mayors
Good Day
I would just like to ask if was it necessary to remove the Table of Surigao City Mayors that I made. I am fairly new to editing Wikipedia so any advice will help.
thank you — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lizard012020 (talk • contribs) 22:50, September 6, 2021 (UTC)
- Hi @Lizard012020: Thanks for your efforts to improve the article with info about the mayors. But I did not remove the table, but moved it to its proper section and subsection: Local government / List of former city mayors. Note that there already was a list of mayors, so I combined the table with the list. Please get familiar with the editing standards at WP. If you ever need any editing tips, let me know. Regards, -- P 1 9 9 ✉ 12:39, 7 September 2021 (UTC)
My regrets regarding Orani article title
Hello P199. Perhaps almost a year has passed since my request to move Orani, Bataan to its plain name. But now, I am finding the current title unsuitable and too ambiguous as Orani is also the name of an Italian city/town (comuni) and also a village in Ukraine that doesn't have enwiki article yet (but has articles in Ukrainian wiki and rus-wiki, as per the disambiguation page). To sum up, I feel that I shouldn't have requested move of Orani as it is not a truly uniquely-named town. I don't know if I will request its return to its old name as I was the requestor of that RM last year (and I don't know if policy allows the very same nominator to conduct RM's in cases like this). JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 18:10, 15 September 2021 (UTC)
- I don't think there is a policy against that. Just swallow your pride. ;-) But before you do that, I checked the page view statistics. Orani, Bataan is the overwhelming primary topic (2341 views compared to 379 for the Italian town). We can leave it as is for now. Regards, -- P 1 9 9 ✉ 18:18, 15 September 2021 (UTC)
Where should I write my first article
Hello,
I'm new here in Wikipedia. Hope I can ask questions to my co-users. I'd like to ask if you can suggest where should I publish my first article. Would it can more chance of getting approved if I write it on my sandbox.
Thank you so much Charismamata (talk) 21:48, 17 September 2021 (UTC)
- Hi @Charismamata: Yes, don't hesitate to ask me questions. And yes, using your sandbox is a great place to draft your new article before moving it over to mainspace. For editing guidelines, see the links in my welcome message on your talk page, or go to WP:Teahouse, a resource for new comers. Regards, -- P 1 9 9 ✉ 02:13, 18 September 2021 (UTC)
Appreciate your response. This would help me a lot. Charismamata (talk) 06:16, 18 September 2021 (UTC)
