By no stretch of the imagination is it possible to have been copied from facebook.
My guess, as I'd stated in the discussion: Did you actually check the dates and times of posting in two places? Or did you simply search for the word facebook, and nominate a large number of photos for deletion? > I'm sure he didn't find the similar photo, as it was no longer > visible.

No permission." No rationale. Nada. Refers to: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Multiply-inbox.PNG That says: "Multiply, Social Networking, Alternatives to Facebook" and is used to illustrate: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiply_%28website%29 Obviously, he didn't even look at the photo. It's not "from Facebook." He's a fraud. All of his deletion requests should be denied. I'm formally asking that he resign or be removed as administrator. _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
