[BUG] Reason for deletion of picture not sent

[+SN67 6]

As a CO I have the ability to delete photos in logs. When doing that, I have to give a reason. That's a pretty good feature, even though I think it would be more appropriate if it was applied to deletion of  the entire log. Obviously, the message should turn up at the owner of the log, but apparently it doesn't   

I had a suspicion that nothing happened, (I didn't get a reply on the last message I sent)  so I tried it with a friends account. Yup! No message appeared at my friend!

There have been a couple of other Forum mentions of Message Center weirdness recently.  I hope that it clears up quickly, and that there's some way to identify what did and didn't get to the intended destination.  I've sent a couple of messages as a CO, too, in the past 3 weeks or so.  Receipt of those messages is important in determining my follow-up.

No, the owner of that photo doesn't get a notification that his photo was deleted.

They used to.   According to the Help Center article on this topic, " 6. Enter the reason for image deletion. This text will be sent to the owner of the image." 

I can test this, use a basic member account to load an image to one of my caches, then log on as IK and delete it.

Here's how that looks. Eventually, I'd expect that text to show up as email to the basic member account.

Really? I always assumed that they did. Otherwise, that "reason for deletion" is meaningless.

I could very well be wrong. 

 

It's already meaningless every time I'm asked for a reason to delete my own image on my own caches.

I apologize.

Confirmed as OP did: 

No notification received for photo deletion. I've never gotten a notice after deleting my own photo, which requires a reason. This time I tested it on a secondary account.

Notification received for log deletion.

I can confirm the bug in the OP.  My basic member account has received no email about the image deletion.

Log https://coord.info/GLA1NM9H

user megarie logged on, uploaded a photo.  Then Isonzo Karst logged on and deleted it. No email sent (so far, over 30 minutes). In the past a deletion notice was sent, including the text in the box, and a link (i think I recall this) to the image.

I believe you! I've just never seen it myself.

I think we've established that it's ment to work (I wasn't even aware it was mentioned in the help section) but it doesn't!

Now we just need to know what HQ's gonna do about it?!  😐

Bump, I just went through this again. Basic user megarie uploaded a photo a log on a cache by Isonzo Karst. Isonzo Karst deleted the photo.

user megarie has received no notice.

Curious, I tested this today, now on image deletion the text of "why" is  sent.  The image had no title, hence the ""

 

Your image titled "" was removed from the cache "Epidendrum magnoliae" by the cache owner for the following reason:
delete image

View the image here
View the log entry here

 

Image url errors out ;-) 

I'll delete the log too.
