- Expunging/Appealing -In this thread, you can request upvotes/downvotes on expunge petitions.
For wrongfully expunged galleries, please initiate an appeal petition yourself and request assistance over here.
To appeal expunge petitions that have been activated for more than 7 days, request assistance from a
veto holder.
Please consider using this template when making an expunge/appeal request:
CODE
Vote up/down [delete as appropriate] the following expunge/appeal [delete as appropriate] petition(s):
*Gallery link*
--> *Justification*
Example:
QUOTE
It is advised that you use the
stroke function to cross out a request once it is done.
You can also ask for clarification on certain expunge(s)/appeal(s) over here. Before doing so however, please carefully read both the
expunge guidelines and the gallery expunge log first.
If it is a gallery you uploaded check your "My Galleries" area. Click on the "
Expunged" link to open its expunge log.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Reverting/Splitting -Reversion should be requested for galleries whose updates solely removed legitimate content from a gallery (e.g. replacing a gallery with a white page).
Please do not expunge these galleries. If valid content was simultaneously added during such updates the gallery may be subject to replacement expunging by another uploader.
Gallery chain split should be requested when an uploader overwrites a gallery with other irrelevant content, assuming that both iterations can be considered as valid galleries on their own. All ≥10MP tags will be copied from the original chain to the split gallery by default.
You must specify in your report if the original tags should not be copied to the split gallery. In both instances, the original chain retains its tags.
Procedure for submitting reversion/split requests:
1) Visit
the version of the gallery to be reverted back to (not the inferior version).
2) Press "
Report Gallery" and scroll down.
3) Select the "Reversion/Split/Undisown Request" option from the drop-down menu.
4) Put in your e-mail address.
5) Type "Revert" / "Split
*Gallery IDs* " and briefly state why the gallery should be reverted/split in the "Report Details" box.
6) Send the report.
You are encouraged to document your reversion requests over here. Notifying the community will help to prevent redundant requests from being submitted.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Excessive Updates/Bumping -A gallery updated more than twice per 30 days (a.k.a. excessive bumping) should be reported as "Excessive Updates" to have the gallery temporarily locked from updates.
However, some exceptions exist:
- Any valid additions to artist-specific galleries, ongoing comics / cg sets, or ongoing translation projects. These must be based on what is released by the artist / translator.
- Any changes for fixing an expungeable gallery (e.g. removing forbidden images).
Note that replacement galleries that aim to bypass the update lock can still be expunged as "duplicate".
------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Undisowning -Accidentally disowned galleries can have their ownership requested back using the "Reversion/Split/Undisown Request" report option. This can only be done by the uploader who disowned a gallery, attempting to take ownership of another uploaders disowned gallery won't be accepted.
Procedure for undisown requests:
1) Visit the disowned gallery.
2) Press "
Report Gallery" and scroll down.
3) Select the "Reversion/Split/Undisown Request" option from the drop-down menu.
4) Put in your e-mail address.
5) Enter the details/reason for the request.
6) Send the report.
