Ekaterina Malysheva I agree ought to be deleted. However once a prod flag has been removed, it should not be replaced, we have to go to AFD. I suggest you might read up on deletion procedures. PatGallacher (talk) 20:50, 7 September 2020 (UTC)

@PatGallacher: I am so sorry. It is not my "home" or my language (I was only visiting) and I did not read WP: MTR carefully, I thought it was very similar to mine, but apparently it is the other way around. In my case it is the opposite, templates should never be removed without justifying it in the talk page. I reiterate, I am very sorry: I should review the policies before reverting here: there are similar policies, but there are very different accords (particularly when the language is misunderstood: I'm sure you can guess). I will not repeat it. Greetings Bcoto (talk) 21:25, 7 September 2020 (UTC)

Hash House Harriers

Hi Kirchhoff, I see you deleted several pictures of a Hash House Harriers run near Niamey, in Niger, saying these were "not representative". May I ask how you know that? I participated dozens of times with the Hash in Niamey and the scene depicted is very representative of how it went there (in Niger). It may not be representative for the way a hash run was done in Peru or Malaysia, but in every country it is a bit different, depending on local circumstances. So the picture from Peru may not be representative either. In Niger we always gathered at some point outside he city, did our run, and when we came back villagers would have gathered around the parked cars to see what was going on and to see if they could get hold of a bottle of water or coke. I have several similar pictures, taken on different dates. So please explain your deletions. Thank you for doing so. NigerTZai (talk) 22:03, 26 November 2021 (UTC)

Hi @NigerTZai::

you can read this in the section in this policy: "The purpose of an image is to increase readers' understanding of the article's subject matter, usually by directly depicting people, things, activities, and concepts described in the article. The relevant aspect of the image should be clear and central."

What do you want me to explain? Do you want me to explain the phrase "the relevant aspect of the image should be clear and central"?

Regards Kirchhoff (talk) 23:22, 26 November 2021 (UTC)

Hi Kirchhoff, The relevant aspect of my image is to show the situation at the end of a hash run in Niamey. The picture is very representative for such a situation in Niamey. Just as another picture of mine is very representative for the situation at the start of a Hash run in Niamey, with people gathering. Maybe I'll put the image you deleted deeper down in the article, under the heading "Socializing" where the end of a run is described. Or under "Variations", hoping you won't remove it again. Or will you? Best regards, NigerTZai (talk) 11:04, 27 November 2021 (UTC)
