Remember you said to me about the flag location categories?

I am going to request a huge cleanup in the village pump and possibly creating a userpage for anyone who is categorizing images of flags with a set of rules. SpinnerLaserz (talk) 02:54, 18 May 2020 (UTC)

SpinnerLaserz, understood. You could propose a set of standards there and get community feedback. — Huntster (t @ c) 04:15, 18 May 2020 (UTC)

DRs

Hi Huntster, Thanks for your swift action with the IP, Just wondering but do the IPs DRs really need to be kept?,
In this specific case he's obviously a troll so I don't see why the DRs should continue to remain?, Obviously if that was a well-intentioned editor who made an incorrect DR then I'd agree with keeping but troll IPs is where I draw the line,
Obviously you're the admin and you know best :),
Thanks again for your swift action it's much appreciated, Thanks, –Davey2010^Talk 01:33, 28 June 2020 (UTC)

Davey2010, I'm working my way through them. I'm just old and slow. — Huntster (t @ c) 01:34, 28 June 2020 (UTC)

Hi, Oh no sorry I wasn't asking you to close them - I was basically asking if they should be deleted instead ?, Many thanks, –Davey2010^Talk 01:35, 28 June 2020 (UTC)

Davey2010, there's no real reason to delete them. I'm simply closing as no valid rationale for deletion. — Huntster (t @ c) 01:37, 28 June 2020 (UTC)

I 110% unequivocally disagree with that but then again I pretty much disagree with every Commons policy there is (when it comes to trolls/socks) so I will say no more, Thanks again for your help, Take care, –Davey2010^Talk 01:40, 28 June 2020 (UTC)

Davey2010, you are welcome to request this at the admin board or elsewhere, it simply isn't a step I'm willing to take at this time. — Huntster (t @ c) 01:42, 28 June 2020 (UTC)

Blocking of IP

Hello Hunster. Thanks for your work on anti-vandalism. However, I see you block 2a04:4a43:4c7f:a7dc:a458:d936:1fad:d4c2 (talk · contributions · Number of edits · recent activity · block log · User rights log · uploads · Global account information) (assign permissions) indefinitely. Though the disruption made by the IP is rather huge, it is not appropriate to block an IP address indefinitely. Because it may hurt other innocent user and they cannot edit Commons forever. Maybe a blocking length of six months or a year would be better, regards. --A1Cafel (talk) 06:21, 28 June 2020 (UTC)

This is an individual IPv6 address, not a range, so has extremely low likelihood of impinging on any other user. I'll dial back to six months, though, so it does eventually clear. — Huntster (t @ c) 05:11, 3 July 2020 (UTC)
