προς Εμένα Αγαπητέ Χρήστο,

με τιμά το ενδιαφέρον σου για τα εικαστικά μου πονήματα και φυσικά σου ΠΑΡΑΧΩΡΩ ΤΗΝ ΑΔΕΙΑ δημοσίευσης στη Βικιπαίδεια της επισυναπτόμενης φωτογραφίας μου, που προέρχεται από το προσωπικό μου αρχείο, είναι αναρτημένη στη σελίδα "προφίλ" μου στο facebook και έχει τραβηχτεί από τη Μάρθα Αγούλου στο εργαστήριό μου στη Ζάκυνθο. Στέλνω και κάποια έργα- αξιοποίησέ τα όπως επιθυμείς. Σχετικά με τα άλλα θέματα που έθεσες τηλεφωνικά να ξαναμιλήσουμε σύντομα. Ευχαριστώ Διονύσης. — Preceding unsigned comment added by ChrisAmp (talk • contribs)

Hi Yann,

You recently deleted a photo on the cover of the book of my brother Josep Font i Huguet. This book, Sentiment Català is available in google books and don't have any copyright restrictions. Anyway I am the administrator of the rights of the work of my brother and please, do not delete the new file I uploaded.

Your WIPO photo

Hi, Yann,

May we use your WIPO headquarters photo from 2005 for our online newsletter? How would you like me to attribute it, if so?

Thanks, Arva

By the way, this is the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. I'll certainly send you an image of how we use your image before we post live, and we really will appreciate your permission. Mind contacting me directly?

VI-Pic Lacerta agilis - concolor

Hi Yann, thanks for your comment on the nomination page. I don't really know, how i can add this description correctly to the image descriptions - without this stupid google-tranlated text and how i can add the refferences correctly (linking, and so on). Maybe, you can give me some tips how i can do this correctly without doing any formating errors? Are there some template codes for such issues available? Thanks & greetings, Christoph (talk)

Undo deletion

Hi there sir, you have filed a deletion to my After School images. I found them in a random sites such as google or any other sites. I've searched thoroughly to where the images came from and I've found out those images were taken from a Korean fan. The author of the images didn't forbid those sites to stop using his/her images to posted on their sites, but instead. He/She let them to use it as in free. I believed it's a free license. I've provided the image source and the author's blog. I put credits I'm not plagiarizing, I plagiarized if I didn't put the source at all. Hoped you understand it, please undo the deletion for the other images that are deleted. I'm not starting a contest here I'm only explaining my side, thanks have a good day.

Photo Finale de la Coupe de France RC Cannes-USSP Albi

Bonjour, Vous avez supprimé la photo "Finale de la Coupe de France RC Cannes-USSP Albi" sur l'article wikipedia "Virginie Jouault". Cette photo est tirée du site internet http://rc-cannes.pagesperso-orange.fr/ Ce site est abandonné. Je veux bien citer le site en référence. J'aurais dû le faire.

Cette photo a plusieurs intérêts : elle est très significative de sa carrière du poste auquel elle jouait, rares sont les photos de Virginie Jouault de cette époque précise où elle était professionnelle, la photo est originale et esthétiquement belle, pour une fois que c'est le cas pour ce sport.

Je me permets donc de revenir vers vous pour trouver une solution afin de réinsérer cette photo.

Cordialement. Emmanuel Lecomte

Russell

Hi - just seen your reasoned (but esoteric) comment on my Russell badge. I was very annoyed at its deletion on Russell (main Wiki) page and got into trouble when I admittedly over-reacted by deleting the whole page as a result. However, someone kindly elected me back in. Now, let's sort out the original. No photographer (of 50+ years ago) is going to object to this image on a badge, surely. And the badge is a unique (I use the word carefully) part of social and political history. Let's get it back there. My common-sense and respect of my youth(!) and judgement of copyright say we should do this. Despite my number of contributions to Wiki, I feel an admin amateur. Please help! - Tony

Arquivos de Clau Carvalho

Caro Yann, os arquivos que carreguei foram excluídos da página do Sampaio Correa na Wikipedia (menos um) e fui notificado quanto à questão de direitos autorais. Concordo que em alguns arquivos que foram utilizados eu pus apenas como fonte a "Internet", porque entendo que já entraram em domínio público, uma vez que não dá pra saber quem são seus autores. Mas em outras ocasiões, eu citei a fonte de onde retirei, como são os casos da Revista Placar e do blog Futebol Maranhense Antigo. A figura de Samuel Rosa e Marcelo Adnet não é uma fotografia, não, são dois cliques que dei nos seus respectivos vídeos que estão divulgados no Youtube, fonte que foi devidamente citada. Eu fiz a montagem. Que falta, então? Que eu coloque o autor do vídeo do Youtube? Sinceramente, gostaria que me explicasse isso melhor. Já li a política do WikiCommons, mas acho que não compreendi bem. Em todo o caso, fiz com a melhor das intenções, pelo grande amor que tenho pelo time do meu coração. Peço que esta mensagem não esteja ao alcance de outras pessoas, pois que é de natureza muito pessoal. Atenciosamente. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Clau Carvalho (talk • contribs)

This file, as well as all the others about "William Girometti", reproduce painting of my father, who died 15 years ago. Since I am his only heir, now that my mother died too, I have the ownership of all the paintings whose pictures I uploaded. Probably I chose the wrong licence, but I wish that people enjoy my father's paintings. I am also working to a page in Wikipedia about my father, in which also a bibliography is available. I wrote to permission-commons@wikimedia.org too. Please tell me how I may upload the file again without problems. Thank you very much, Silvia Girometti

What was this?

At Commons:Deletion_requests/File:Constanza_Lüer.jpg we have a nonsense DR, my vk stating that file is in use and then poof, it is gone. What’s going on? -- Tuválkin ✉ 20:46, 18 November 2013 (UTC)

Whether a file is in use may be of interest if the scope is questioned. The reason for this deletion seems to be a suspected copyright violation, and here we cannot have existing use trump copyright. --Dschwen (talk) 22:04, 18 November 2013 (UTC)

Where is that copyvio mentioned in the DR? -- Tuválkin ✉ 22:44, 18 November 2013 (UTC)

Nowhere. It should have been. But since you are asking what that was I'm answering you: "A probable copyvio". You can read the deletion rationale here. --Dschwen (talk) 22:56, 18 November 2013 (UTC)

Thanks Dschwen. My question («What was this?») was not about what was on the deleted image, but something like «what was this all about?», with «this» being the DR itself. -- Tuválkin ✉ 02:02, 19 November 2013 (UTC)

(Edit conflict)

Meanwhile I read JuTa’s notice (08:32, 12 November 2013) in the uploader’s talk page. All good, then. However, this exchange should be added to the DR (out side the blue area), because other users, like me, may expect DRs to be done in a transparent, clear fashion. -- Tuválkin ✉ 22:59, 18 November 2013 (UTC)

Wilfredor DRs

Hi, I have been looking through some past DRs and came across Commons:Deletion requests/File:Lema y yo.jpg. The deletion nomination does not appear to be a policy based reason to create a DR. Could you please add a meaningful closure statement to it? Thanks --Fæ (talk) 03:21, 19 November 2013 (UTC)

This image is completely out of scope, so it is very well within the policy. When I closed with as above, it means that I agree with the nominator (and eventually other comments). Isn't clear enough? Yann (talk) 07:05, 19 November 2013 (UTC)

Sorry, no. The nomination stated "User contributions in spanish is only in her user page. Self promotion, low image quality, non enciclopedic value." I cannot see the image any more, as you have deleted it, however based on the hundreds of other DRs that Wilfredor has created over the last few days, several that you have closed by deleting, that include non-policy nominations (see list), this nomination is worth looking at again. The facts are:

1. You make reference to your closure relating to "eventually other comments", however there is none apart from the nomination.
2. I am not completely clear what "User contributions in spanish is only in her user page" means, however it appears to be nominating an image for deletion because one of our contributors does not use English on her user talk page. This would definitely not be a deletion rationale and would be troubling of itself.
3. "Self promotion" is unlikely, in the list of images up for deletion this have been used to describe "selfies" and similar profile photographs which were not against policy per se. One might argue that some of these were out of scope due to possible lack of educational value, but any closing admin should make that clear.
4. "low image quality", this would have to be bad enough to render the image out of scope to be a rationale for deletion, there are many cases in the above list where this was incorrectly mentioned in the nomination.
5. "non enciclopedic value", this is against Commons policy and no DR closure should agree with this as a deletion rationale.

Please amend your closure to explain the reasons you chose to delete the image. The nomination as it stands is not something that a closing admin should just take at face value and delete the image with the comment "as above". Thanks --Fæ (talk) 09:55, 19 November 2013 (UTC)

This is a personal image (portrait with his girl friend?) of poor quality, and not used. So your points 3, 4, and 5 above cover it. I don't see where is your problem. I think that point #2 means that if the only edits of a user would in his/her user page (not the case here), it would be a rationale for deletion. This gave me the opportunity to review other files from this user. Two of them are not own work, and have at least a wrong license, and may be a copyvio. I nominated them for deletion. Yann (talk) 10:20, 19 November 2013 (UTC)

Could you please add a similar explanation to the closing statement of the DR? It is important that Administrators are not seen to support nominations on the basis of contributors writing in Spanish, or being "non-encyclopedic".

Done. Yann (talk) 11:18, 19 November 2013 (UTC)

You appear to be confirming that you believe that "non-encyclopedic value" is a reason to delete images from Commons, if that is the case then we should probably continue the conversation at COM:AN so that other Administrators can provide viewpoints on how to interpret policy. Thanks --Fæ (talk) 11:11, 19 November 2013 (UTC)

"non-encyclopedic value" doesn't mean anything in itself. You need to explain why a file would be, or not, of encyclopedic value. Yann (talk) 11:18, 19 November 2013 (UTC)

No, this is a frequent and fundamental misunderstanding of scope. Specifically, Commons differs from the English Wikipedia by having a scope that includes media with educational value, this is much broader than encyclopaedic value. DRs with these sort of nominations should be either corrected or the closing statement should clarify that difference as Commons should never delete images which have an educational rationale but happen to fail to have an encyclopaedic rationale. --Fæ (talk) 11:28, 19 November 2013 (UTC)

Sorry, but this seems rather semantic. I think I agree with you that Commons' scope is broader than Wikipedia's. But in this case, I don't see the point you want to make. Above I mean "educational" rather than "encyclopedic". So I rewrite my statement as "non-educational value" doesn't mean anything in itself. You need to explain why a file would be, or not, of educational value. And in this case, the image is neither educational nor encyclopedic. Yann (talk) 11:33, 19 November 2013 (UTC)

The word encyclopedia comes from the Koine Greek ἐγκύκλιος παιδεία, transliterated enkyklios paideia, meaning "general education." Both words are just semantic for many. And for a Spanish speaker, there is not much meaning in sticking on the exact meaning of an English word. JKadavoor Jee 11:42, 19 November 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for making the correction. Commons policies are written using words, to argue them away as being semantics is unhelpful. The same rationale of semantic equivalence can make almost any policy useless or inverted, for example you can argue that anything written on Commons can never be harassment, or that it is okay to delete all photographs of people who do not have Wikipedia biographies. Please stick to "educational" not "encyclopaedic", I do not want to waste everyone's time by asking for this to be clarified on noticeboards when our community policies are completely unambiguous. --Fæ (talk) 12:03, 19 November 2013 (UTC)

Well, it seems simple, but it may not be. I wouldn't be surprised if Wilfredor used "encyclopaedic" when he meaned "educational", and many non-native English speakers would do too. Did you ask him? Yann (talk) 12:13, 19 November 2013 (UTC)

No, the DR was closed and you had deleted the file. You are the closing admin for a DR with no comments apart from the nomination, so you must have been satisfied that Wilfredor had correctly nominated it. The only relevant action to challenge the above discrepancies was to clarify your closing statement. --Fæ (talk) 13:16, 19 November 2013 (UTC)

I don't appreciate messages like this on my talk page. It's not your place to tell me if I feel an issue has been explained properly. It's not even your place to tell me to stay away from another admin's talk page. If you have a problem with anything I've done and think I need to be stopped from doing something, then take it to a community noticeboard. Don't waste my time (or indeed yours) issuing pointless warnings like that, which you must be aware will only anger the recipient. If I catch you trying to intimidate another user like this over an issue of admin accountability again, I'll be doing the same. Ultra7 (talk) 16:28, 21 November 2013 (UTC)

Your are wrong on all counts here. Yes, if you make problems, it is necessary to tell you. And yes, it is my work to tell you to stop bothering others. Nobody appreciate your bashing. Please stop. This is the last warning. Regards, Yann (talk) 16:33, 21 November 2013 (UTC)

Your 'warning' was read and deleted - do not restore it again. This is your last warning to stay off my talk page - it is totally unacceptable for you to be reverting my talk page to restore messages I have read [3]. It's also pretty stupid to be posting this same message here, and then again on my talk page. I frankly don't care what you appreciate or not - if you think I cause problems, If you think you have a case, take it to a noticeboard. If you continue to try and intimidate users, I will report you. Ultra7 (talk) 16:41, 21 November 2013 (UTC)

You really need to calm down, this behaviour is ridiculous. You are badgering people and it is getting on everyone's nerves. -mattbuck (Talk) 16:48, 21 November 2013 (UTC)

Again about deleted files with William Girometti's paintings (e.g. Restauro_come_terapia.jpg)

Hi Yann, sorry for bothering you again about the same topic. I would just like to ask you whether there is anything I can do while I am waiting, in order to support my request about the images being restored (request sent to permissions-commons@wikimedia.org about a week ago). Thank you very much again and best regards, Silvia Girometti — Preceding unsigned comment added by Silvia Girometti (talk • contribs)

Permission in File:Calamità naturale.jpg

Hello Yann, I added permission in the file: did I put it in the right place? And shall I do the same for all the other files you are restoring? Thank you so much, Silvia — Preceding unsigned comment added by Silvia Girometti (talk • contribs)

LSU shield

Yann,

Thank you for the reply regarding the LSU shield. I'm sure it's copyrighted similar to the University of Michigan "M", but it's not a big deal for me if it's removed. I thought it was an interesting picture from the stadium gate, so I took the picture. I'm actually writing to thank you for how you respond to my request to have it undeleted. It gave an explanation and also useful information. There are people who edit that give no explanation and decide to delete regardless of explanation or discussion. They do it in a rude fashion and actually harass and attack contributors. Your response was greatly appreciated. spatms (User talk:spatms) 10:23, 23 November 2013 (UTC)

PermissionOTRS

Done. I added {{tl|PermissionOTRS|id=2013111610010253|Darkwind}} in all files where it has not been added yet, and put my father's name in "Author" (however not in "User") as you wrote. Am I allowed to delete all {{OTRS pending|year=2013|month=November|day=19}} or {{OTRS pending|year=2013|month=November|day=22}}? And, last but not least, should I upload any image more of the same kind, which is the rightest way for doing it? Thank you so much again for everything and kind regards. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Silvia Girometti (talk • contribs)

May I ask you what do you think of the changes I made to File:Senza_titolo_11.JPG before I make changes to all files? I do appreciate your suggestions very much, and hope having done in the right way, however it is not really easy to put a subject (in description?) for surrealistic works (at least some of them). Thanks a lot, --Silvia Girometti (talk) 22:17, 24 November 2013 (UTC)

Great! I'll do the same for all files! Thank you so much --Silvia Girometti (talk) 22:33, 24 November 2013 (UTC)

COM:사랑방#Images from LG

I have uploaded some images, however most of their images are promotional and not educational - most of them are not in our project scope. Yeah, there is some interesting photos like Korean GIrls' baseball league, however some of photos like

• 
• 

are potentially promotional. Do you think I should upload these photos? Regards, --레비Revi_D✉CM 08:00, 25 November 2013 (UTC)

PS - Should I create category for these photos? --레비Revi_D✉CM 08:01, 25 November 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for looking into this. Of course, many of these images are promotional, and are not interesting for Commons. You need to select them. Think what could be used in Wikipedia. I think that providing an English description would make a huge difference about their possible use on Wikimedia. At least I think that images of sports ([4]), some electronics ([5], [6]), and some portraits ([7]) would be in scope. Regards, Yann (talk) 08:16, 25 November 2013 (UTC)

OK. Going to upload them..... --레비Revi_D✉CM 08:19, 25 November 2013 (UTC)

Uploaded links in example. However, last one is portrait of not notable person and may be in trouble with Personality rights. So I did not uploaded it. --레비Revi_D✉CM 08:39, 25 November 2013 (UTC)

At least the portraits of modeles could be uploaded, as there is no issue with personality rights. We already need more portraits. Yann (talk) 08:46, 25 November 2013 (UTC)

I have uploaded +20 photos today. I will do more tomorrow. :-D --레비Revi_D✉CM 08:58, 25 November 2013 (UTC)

Milvus etc..

Yann, can you delete those files please. They are not used and according to our 'local specialist' they can not be identified properly. Moreover I'm the author and I want only properly id'ed images of mine published. Thanks.  B.p. 11:02, 25 November 2013 (UTC)

Hmm. These images looks quite nice. Any way, I don't think they meet any criteria for speedy deletion, especialy because they are QI or VI. Please open a regular DR. Regards, Yann (talk) 11:05, 25 November 2013 (UTC)

File:Corona (solitaire) Layout.jpg

Please review my image https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Corona_(solitaire)_Layout.jpg, and let me know if it is up to Wikimedia Common's standards. I have added the link to the copyright information into the "permissions" area. I will proceed to change the rest of the images I have uploaded after you tell me if this is okay. Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Abehrle (talk • contribs)

Permission to use Gandhi image in Australia

Hi Yann, I live in Australia and I am making a documentary on humanitarian engineering. May I please have permission to use your image "File:Gandhi Juhu May1944.jpg" as I am featuring pictures of famous humanitarians? Or is this image already on the public domain in Australia? Thank you! Kind regards sheena — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sheena.2990 (talk • contribs)

Hello,

This image is in the public domain in India, and in all countries which apply the rule of shorter term. I am not sure about Australia. Regards, Yann (talk) 12:32, 28 November 2013 (UTC)

You may rename it (by removing one extra File:) and re add it or just ignore it. It seems a critically endangered sp. JKadavoor Jee

use of images

Dear Yann I am daughter and heir of the sculptor Lev Razumovsky. On November 30, 2013 I sent an email to permissions-ru@wikipedia.org allowing the use of all images on pages Разумовский, Лев Самсонович and Lev Razumovsky, and attached a copy of his will. Please can you restore the images you have deleted or advise me how to do so. I have tried to upload the images again (having renamed them first), but the system hasn't accepted them. Many thanks, Maria Razumovskaya МЛР (talk) 06:46, 3 December 2013 (UTC)

Recently deleted photo reuploaded

You recently deleted File:Seramahen.jpg due to my request at Commons:Deletion requests/File:Seramahen.jpg. It has been reuploaded with the same issues at File:Serama Hen.jpg. Regards, Chipmunkdavis (talk) 10:14, 2 December 2013 (UTC)

Photo wrongly deleted

The file File:Alopekis_wirehaired.jpg was wrongly deleted. I am the original author of this photograph. It was published in my magazine in Greece (publications no longer active) and subsequently used and reproduced by many authors, with my permission, in articles about the Alopekis breed. It is also included in the article of the Greek wiki that I authored: el:Αρχείο:Alopekis_wirehaired.jpg and carries a FREE licence.

The file was wrongly deleted. I am the author of both articles and of the photo. I wish the photo re-instated.

Thank you Fainomenon (talk) 18:57, 2 December 2013 (UTC)

Since this was previously published, we need a formal permission. Meanwhile, I restored the image and created a proper deletion request: Commons:Deletion requests/File:Alopekis wirehaired.jpg. Please send a permission, or it will be deleted again. Thanks, Yann (talk) 19:13, 2 December 2013 (UTC)

Dear Yann, I filed an un-delete request and I provided information about this image. It is published by the Greek wiki carrying a FREE licence. I provide the link to the Greek wiki and the file licence. What more do I need to do ? Fainomenon (talk) 19:24, 2 December 2013 (UTC)

Book cover deleted

Hi Yan, you have deleted the bookcover on https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Tim_Stryker&action=history due to alleged copyright violation. Working at a National Library I know that book covers are copyright free by most legislations. DO you have any reason to believe the opposite ? Svobodat (talk) 21:58, 2 December 2013 (UTC)

Well, no. Most book covers do have a copyright. Regards, Yann (talk) 22:58, 2 December 2013 (UTC)
