::Yann, it seems like a reasonable example of the sort of watermarking he is complaining labour. This does seem intrusive, so I think dismissing him out of hand is counterproductive. - [[User:Chris.sherlock2|Chris.sherlock2]] ([[User talk:Chris.sherlock2|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 10:57, 19 April 2024 (UTC)

:::Yes, Bollywood Hungama files have an intrusive watermark, but so what? Adamant1 here is complaining for the sake of complaining. They started this thread after I closed [[Commons:Deletion requests/File:Sunny Leone snapped at Mehboob Studio.jpg|this deletion request]]. IMO this is a typical example of [[Commons:Do not disrupt Commons to illustrate a point|Do not disrupt Commons to illustrate a point]]. In addition, this comes after Adamant1 made a large number of disruptive DRs about freedom of panorama in Belgium, and [https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Yann&diff=prev&oldid=867921334 I am not the only one] to find them problematic. So yes, I dismiss Adamant1's writing as counterproductive. [[User:Yann|Yann]] ([[User talk:Yann|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 11:56, 19 April 2024 (UTC)

::::{{ping|Yann}} I have a right to ask a quesiton about something on the village pump if I feel like it needs clarification. Yet '''your''' the one who keeps saying not to make things personal and then that's exactly what you seem to do in essentially every single discussion we're both involved in for some reason. Go figure. --[[User:Adamant1|Adamant1]] ([[User talk:Adamant1|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 17:51, 25 April 2024 (UTC)

:I don't understand the potential resolution here: Bollywood Hungama does not upload files directly to Commons, and they have [https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Files_from_Bollywood_Hungama >17,000 images on Commons]. Do you want to nuke all images? Prevent future uploads of a potentially useful source? The current ''de facto'' situation is people upload images made by them on Commons, and if someone doesn't like the watermark it can be cropped out/removed with editing tools or AI. —'''Matrix(!)''' <nowiki>{</nowiki>''[[User:Matrix|user]] - [[User talk:Matrix|talk?]] - [[Special:Contribs/Matrix|_{<small><s>useless</s></small>}contributions]]''<nowiki>}</nowiki> 19:15, 18 April 2024 (UTC)

::No, I could care less about Bollywood Hungama or any images related to them. I simply mentioned the image as an example of a watermark that at least IMO is promotional and like I've said most of their images aren't like that. Apparently people are incapable of understanding the question or not making this about Bollywood Hungama even though I've retaliated the question multiple times now and said more then once that it has nothing to do with them. My bad for thinking it would be helpful to include an example of what I was talking about though. Is really that hard to just say if watermarks can be promotional or not? --[[User:Adamant1|Adamant1]] ([[User talk:Adamant1|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 19:43, 18 April 2024 (UTC)
