Hi @Sky Captain Swayze and @PeaceDeadC, why did you deleted Ian Cage pic due to NOTREPOSITORY? Idk what does it means? I upload only his solo pic followed PeaceDeadC and skip unnecessary other pics for future article? Explain me please, thank ypu

The thing is, you're uploading a ton of images of a performer for whom there's no article on PBC. In the past, you've also uploaded images for performers whose articles were never created, yet those files ended up in the Media Repository and are still stored there without being included in an article. PBC's policy PBC:NOTREPOSITORY (or PBC:LIMITS if we're talking about general rules for images) implies that you SHOULD NOT use PBC's Media Repository as a file storage. The files you upload to PBC should be used for illustration. For instance, File:Ian_Cage.jpg wasn't deleted because it's used here Q7886 as a portrait photo. All other files are deleted according to PBC:NOTREPOSITORY. If you have a compelling reason to store a certain number of images in the Media Repository, those images may be uploaded, but this is usually an exception, and it's definitely not the case with the files you're regularly uploading.

OK thanks for answer me. I'll create article for Ian Cage but images were deleted so I will create draft article first. Can you restore those images?

Sky Captain Swayze (talkcontribs)

Any bureaucrat or administrator can restore the images if the need arises.
