A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Desmond Dube is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Desmond Dube until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article until the discussion has finished.

In February 2007, you uploaded a photo of Moven Mahachi with four other people. You labeled it as your own work, and you also uploaded a cropped version of that photo, which is just Mr. Mahachi.

In February 2009, you deleted the "own work" tag from the first photo; it was subsequently deleted for not having a source.

I realize that this was almost two decades ago (wow!), and you may not remember, but... were you in fact the person who took that photo of Mahachi and friends? If you were, it's worth restoring; if you weren't, the cropped version (which is currently in use) needs to be deleted as well (or at least, properly tagged as non-free and fair-use).

Thanks. DS (talk) 19:14, 1 January 2025 (UTC)

My goodness, you have a long memory! Or are able to access deleted files? Anyway, as you say that is from 20 years ago and I can't say my understanding of copyright etc was what it is today. I've gone through my old Wikipedia uploads and seen a couple of others that I perhaps took liberties with in the labels. I'll go through them now and request deletions. Thanks for flagging this. Mangwanani ^(talk) 17:21, 2 January 2025 (UTC)

As an admin, I have access to deleted files, yes. And deleted articles as well.

Thank you for being reasonable about the copyright issue. DS (talk) 02:38, 3 January 2025 (UTC)

Well if you're able to permanently delete that picture somehow, I'd be very grateful. Looking back, it is funny how things have developed over the decades and how the approach to Wikipedia has changed and become so much more efficient! Mangwanani ^(talk) 10:05, 3 January 2025 (UTC)

I assume this one is likewise a problem, right? DS (talk) 02:46, 4 January 2025 (UTC)

Indeed. Overlooked that one. If you are able to permanently delete the files, I'd be very grateful. Mangwanani ^(talk) 15:35, 6 January 2025 (UTC)

Hello – just to flag, you included United Democratic Alliance twice in the results table and seem to have combined Republican Party of Zimbabwe and Rebuilding Zimbabwe Party into the former. I also discovered that the 'PRZ' candidate was neither of these two, but actually PRC. I've fixed it in the main article but you might want to do so in any subarticles. Cheers, Number 57 01:35, 2 November 2025 (UTC)

Two very good spots. Thank you. Mangwanani ^(talk) 01:57, 2 November 2025 (UTC)
