Template talk:Permission received

Discussion concerning this template

Here is a discussion which concerns in part this template. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 20:04, 7 August 2016 (UTC)

Why different than Commons template?

The Commons version is clearer and specifies that "If a valid permission is not provided within 30 days of the first response by an OTRS volunteer, this file will be deleted." It automatically flags for deletion by an admin in 30 days if the uploader fails to respond satisfactorily, whereas the en-wiki version leaves it open indefinitely until a deletion nomination for permission reasons is initiated. I'd propose that the en-wiki version of this template be replaced by the Commons version.  JGHowes  ^talk 14:47, 6 July 2018 (UTC)

New version

@DeltaQuad: Alright, I think I have the categories in the sandbox working properly. While looking it over, I did notice something I had forgotten about: The current template adds Category:Wikipedia files with unconfirmed permission received by OTRS and the associated date categories for files both processed and not processed. From my point of view, this just results in someone running through the category and changing the date every 30 days until the ticket is processed, so I removed them in the sandbox version. Should these categories be added for the unprocessed files too? --AntiCompositeNumber (talk) 15:32, 6 March 2019 (UTC)
