Block request for User:Southxavyy

Uploads are confirmed to be F10s in description All the Best -- Chuck Talk 21:44, 4 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Well, yes, my mom took a photo of me when I was a little kid, lmao. Southxavyy (talk) 22:31, 4 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I really don't understand what do you mean. I don't know what did I do, I created an account to create a Wiki page about me, since I am an artist Southxavyy (talk) 21:46, 4 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Alachuckthebuck: I have deleted the last remaining upload which appeared to be a fair-use cover, and leave any other (admin) actions to my fellow admins. Regards, Aafi (talk) 04:53, 5 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I'm telling you again, I DIDN'T BREAK THE RULES, the C!ty cover art was a cover art made by ME, with use of a photo under the Unsplash licence, which let's me use it, as long as I don't sell it how it was, and 1. I don't sell it at all. 2. I modified it and added text.\
If you don't understand, maybe you shouldn't be an admin... Southxavyy (talk) 08:41, 5 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
 Comment I warned Southxavyy to stay calm. Yann (talk) 09:28, 5 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry. But it would be great if you delete the block request, because all images were upload legally, and without breaking the rules. Southxavyy (talk) 09:30, 5 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Southxavyy: Hi, Usually, documents previously published require a formal written permission via COM:VRT. Could you please provide a link to the original picture? Yann (talk) 10:55, 5 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
