The article Afghanistan at the 2016 Summer Olympics you nominated as a good article has been placed on hold . The article is close to meeting the good article criteria, but there are some minor changes or clarifications needing to be addressed. If these are fixed within 7 days, the article will pass; otherwise it may fail. See Talk:Afghanistan at the 2016 Summer Olympics for issues which need to be addressed.

I'm sorry, but I don't understand the messages that are being left on the photo? I copied everything from other photos of book covers that have been on Wikipedia for years on articles about those books - is there something I'm supposed to change so it isn't deleted? I thought book cover photos are permitted as long as they are only used on the article specifically about the book, but not for any other articles?
I am fairly new to editing, so any help you could give me would be much appreciated!
@Lilipo25: Hello. Part of the criteria for non-free content is that it is used minimally. User:DatBot, which I assume you're referring to resizes the covers so that "images [are] as small as possible to still be useful as identified by their rationale, and no larger."

(talk page watcher) The file wasn't orphaned, just the previous (original) upload, which is what the template says. — JJMC89 (T·C) 04:58, 31 May 2019 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2019-05-31T04:58:00.000Z","author":"JJMC89","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-JJMC89-2019-05-31T04:58:00.000Z-Swpb-2019-05-29T22:19:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->
