Hello, DatGuy. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or draft page you started, "Shao Yihui".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material, the draft has been deleted. When you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 23:22, 15 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. I noticed DatBot resized a non-free SVG I uploaded. I was wondering what the point of that is, since as long as it's a valid SVG, you can render it in any size? The Squirrel Conspiracy (talk) 21:44, 18 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@The Squirrel Conspiracy: the software displays a raster image where SVGs are not supported, using the size of the image. DatGuy^Talk_Contribs 12:35, 22 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Ok. TIL. Works for me. Thanks for the reply. The Squirrel Conspiracy (talk) 17:54, 22 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Dear DatGuy, I'm letting you know that this current logo: thumb|200px — of the historic club named CCFC from India — is absolutely wrong, and it is being created using softwares by an editor named ইমরান ভূইয়া recently, who "has been confirmed by a CheckUser as a sockpuppet of Aniruddhchaudhuy". I want your help to reinstall/revive the original logo (which is an SVG file with having properly sourced: Calcutta Cricket and Football Club Annual Report 2023 — PDF (archived version)]. The authentic file is that one in bottom, (which was "Reduce size of non-free image [BOT - disable]" tagged version updated by the 'DatBot') at 00:06, on 27 December 2023. Thanking you a lot for going through my request, Stay safe and keep up your great works :) Billjones94 (talk) 10:33, 24 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I've reverted it. I'm not sure why you struggled, as the revision seems to still be available to non-admins. In case you used the 'undo' in the page history, next time use the "revert" button in the file history table. DatGuy^Talk_Contribs 10:39, 24 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, thank you a lot for the guidance too my friend! Billjones94 (talk) 15:09, 24 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
