Files in Category:Grammar Nazi icons
[edit]With the rise of antisemitism and Islamophobia fueled by neo-Nazism, I don't think having these kind of images is conducive at all to Wikimedia Commons. The term "grammar Nazi" is already offensive in of itself, to make images derived from racist and bigoted media and use them in a non-academic way is a bit too much. I only see this file BTW being used in userboxes, etc. as well as a small handful of articles where the image is not at all conducive.

- They are discriminatory. Per COM:SCOPE Commons primarily includes images used to foster education. Modifying hate symbols to use them in a noneducational manner is not in scope. Aasim (talk) 06:25, 25 April 2024 (UTC)

- (Jameslwoodward), these files was used in several articles, at least in ruwiki (example). Now I need to ask Commons admins to restore files to reupload them to ruwiki locally, and it should be done in every wiki that uses these files. "Hate symbol" is not a reason to delete, Commons contains and should contain megatons of files containing hate symbols, from Nazi propaganda to Russian military "Z" symbol, for educational reasons. Such deletions due to "political correctness" should not spoil article namespace of wikipedias. Please, review your decision and restore files, at least that was used in articles.
