Welcome to Wikipedia. I see that you have discovered GlobalReplace and are converting articles to use SVG files. Please note the following:
PNGs should not just be replaced en masse the instant an SVG replacement becomes available. It is often sufficient to label the image description page with a ((vector version available)) tag, and it will be migrated over to the SVG version by editors where appropriate.Note especially use of "where appropriate". Changing archives, previous discussions and user pages, where a user has specifically chosen to use a file is not appropriate.
Please do not continue to change images to use SVG versions without ensuring the change is appropriate. --AussieLegend (✉) 18:27, 23 January 2016 (UTC)
Before replacing images with SVG versions, please ensure that the SVG versions are not inferior to the existing version. As was explained in this edit summary (for example), File:Northern_Territory_Coat_of_Arms.svg is inferior to File:Northern Territory COA.png because the RH kangaroo is wrong (it is looking in the wrong direction) and the shading is incorrect. --AussieLegend (✉) 01:05, 31 May 2016 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Cassiopeia. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Shamil Abdurakhimov, but you didn't provide a reliable source.
