Thank you ...

... for your apology on your user page. We all have problems and must learn to deal with them. When we do our best, we always win. SergeWoodzing (talk) 12:43, 27 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

That is fine. I don't feel I was deserving of gratitude following my apology, but that was most kind of you to think of me.

Your editing pattern indicates that you may be using multiple accounts or coordinating editing with people outside Wikipedia.

Hello! I am not using any alternative accounts. I am just retiring for awhile.
Thanks,

For clarification, I have used them on Wikimedia Commons when I was initially blocked, then I stopped; as for Wikipedia, I don't and haven't ever.

A tag has been placed on File:PrincessAlexandraOgilvyWeddingProcession.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a non-free file from a commercial source (e.g. Associated Press, Getty Images), where the file itself is not the subject of sourced commentary. If you can explain why the file can be used under the non-free content guidelines, please add the appropriate non-free use tag and rationale.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

It is fine, I only upload photos that were made prior to 1970 because of photographer reasons. That doesn't relate to this situation, however, because it was made in 1963. I understand this and didn't notice, so I don't contest.
Thanks,
