Restored buildings in Belarus have the same status as the historical buildings. Legally, the year of construction of Assumption Church considered in 1803([1], code 212Г000062, Успенскі сабор), and the architect of the project is considered to be Józef Fontana. Igor Rotko not the author of the project, he is the author of working documentation for measured drawings, ie there is no creativity in his work (this would be contrary to the Venice Charter). 195.50.31.213 21:52, 21 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Could you explain the consequences of the assertion "Restored buildings in Belarus have the same status as the historical buildings" on copyright? --Dereckson (talk) 15:09, 22 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
It's about the true architect of the church. First it was built in 1800s, in 1960s it was demolished and in 2000s restored. However the authors of the restored church don't own the rights on the building. --195.50.31.213 18:19, 22 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

File:Alexander Hauff 1.jpg request undelete

i woke up the morning with the information a file i contributed to the wiki commons had been deleted because of "copyright fringe". I not only do own the copyright, i am the photographer of the picture and have the permission to upload it from the actor. i understand and respect your wish to take care about the misuse of pictures. but after clicking from page to page only getting to another page with lot's of lists and links i still have no idea what went wrong or even better what i have to do. why not ask for all the things one has to do on the upload page. if you check my name and the actors name you will see that i make a lot of the pictures from that actor for his agency and press kits. so what exactly do you want me to do when i upload one of my pictures. --Iolukana (talk) 10:35, 28 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Iolukana: Please submit a license verification per the instructions at COM:OTRS. Thanks. The OTRS volunteer will request undeletion once the permission is verified. Revent (talk)
Iolukana, the file's metadata shows a copyright for Jordana Schramm. Attempts at identity theft are common here, both by vandals and by fans, so to protect the copyright holder, when an image shows an explicit copyright, we require that the actual copyright holder confirm his or her identity through OTRS. I know this is a nuisance, but you only have to do it once. After that, we will know that Iolukana is Jordana Schramm. .     Jim . . . .

Reason: Ticket:2015011310017213 Signed permission received from National Archives of Malawi through Wikipedian-in-Residence, Malawi. Jee 12:29, 28 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Oppose Jee, call me a skeptic. Notwithstanding the declaration of its Director, I doubt very much that the National Archives of Malawi is actually the copyright holder. The Director gives no explanation of why the National Archives owns the copyrights to this varied assortment of images and I think we probably should have such an explanation.
I also note that while the authorization letter (which was forwarded to us and did not come directly from the Director) is on letterhead and looks very authentic, it is dated October 13th, 2014, and it is now 4 1/2 months after that. The date on the letter is in a different typeface from the letter's body, so I have my doubts about the authenticity of the letter as well. .     Jim . . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 15:33, 28 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks Jim for the opinion. I too have some doubt about the "ownership of copyright"; so I had discussed it at IRC prior to posting here. But The National Archives of Malawi is a government department in the Ministry of Information, Tourism Culture. I didn't see much meaning in doubting a state department. The mail was forwarded; but Michaelphoya is Wikipedian-in-Residence, Malawi. From the log I see those deleted files are uploaded before 1 August 2014. The delay may be due to the communication between many people and departments. I can't see deleted contents; but from the file names, it looks like many of they are taken by govt. agencies.
If further clarification is needed, it is better the Wikipedian-in-Residence him/herself handle it as it is difficult for us to communicate with them. Jee 15:59, 28 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
This feels like violating PRP, but I suppose we can always take the position that we have an official government authorization to use them. Let's see how our colleagues feel about it. .     Jim . . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 16:09, 28 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

and File:Régal'ad (Kréma)2.jpg

I am obviously not the copyright holder of the packaging.
But I do not understand how in the world this copyright could possibly applies, whereas it is not even represented in its entirety!
I assume that with such accusations, we could argue that this pic is a violation of the packaging of the podium, that one might be a violation of the tailor's copyright ? And maybe this one could obviously be a violation of the gardener that grow the plants.
Oh, you might want to look at my aviations pics, as most of them featured airlines logos and liveries that are surely submited to copyright.
With such accusations, we could delete most of the documents currently on Commons.

If you're not satisfied with my examples, let me tell you that I am actually angry and dissatisfied with the way it happenned: two of my pictures has been proposed for deletion — months after they've been uploaded — by a new user that has been blocked a few days later for abuse of multiple accounts. Two opinions has been given on those deletion requests, both in favor of conservation. And a month later, without any warning, there are deleted. Two possibilities: whether you don't give a fuck about how many people are opposed to deletion, or you don't give a fuck about what they are actually saying and you delete anyway using argument that have been disapproved.

If you disagred, I would have appreciated that you intervened in the discussion so we could have addressed the issue.

I am NOT SATISFIED with the argumentation of the admin that deleted the file, and I considered the deletion abbusive and unfounded. Gyrostat (talk) 11:56, 1 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

For the images you mentioned in the text above:
  • The "logo" on the podium is {{PD-simple}} and {{PD-text}} PD-Old (the rings were once copyrighted, but it has expired).
    The "logo" on the podium is {{PD-simple}} and {{PD-text}} PD-Old (the rings were once copyrighted, but it has expired).
  • The tailor doesn't own the copyright to these logos, the companies they represent do. But they are however De minimis since the logos are not the focus for this image, it is the person. If the logos were removed, the image would still be as useful in the articles they are in, as it is now.

Josve05a (talk) 12:34, 1 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
FWIW, in general we don't care 'who' nominated an image at DR, or even what rationale was originally used. The point of the process is to comply with policy and copyright law... the copyright status of an image is an 'objective fact', though still open to opinion. Deletions where the image is a problem even though the nom itself was questionable are not uncommon. Revent (talk) 12:43, 1 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I am glad {{PD-simple}}, {{PD-text}}, De minimis and Commons:Threshold of originality are mentioned above. Now you can have a look at the deleted pictures (well...) and you'll realise that those concepts apply to my pictures. Gyrostat (talk) 17:03, 1 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
 Oppose No,sorry, they do not. De minimis can apply only when the copyrighted items is so insignificant that it could be deleted without changing the picture significantly. Since the copyrighted items are the only things in your images, that cannot be the case with them. The Olympic Rings were actually under copyright, but it has expired. The product packaging in your images is far too complex to qualify as PD-Simple.
As for the handling of this, please remember that Commons get around 10,000 new images every day. We delete around 1,500. 25 Admins do 90% of the work. Much as we might like to be able to give personal service, we are fundamentally working very hard to stay ahead of the flood and, at the moment, are falling behind.
Finally, you say:
"Two possibilities: whether you don't give a fuck about how many people are opposed to deletion, or you don't give a fuck about what they are actually saying and you delete anyway using argument that have been disapproved."
That is, in fact partly true. DRs are not votes and any comments that are not well grounded in the applicable law will be ignored. The closing Admin is required to use his or her judgement and knowledge of the law and to use the comments only to help that decision, not vote on it. .     Jim . . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 17:26, 1 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
(endorse comment, tho closable) "DRs are not votes and any comments that are not well grounded in the applicable law will be ignored. The closing Admin is required to use his or her judgement and knowledge of the law and to use the comments only to help that decision, not vote on it." is quite correct. Revent (talk)

Well, at least you cited things. But can you forinstance explain why File:Stephen Amell's Facebook Photo.jpg, copied from Stephen Amell's Official Facebook is under a {{Cc-0}} license?

My argumentation at the discussion page was completely ignored. I argued the Czech copyright act use the word "rozmnoženina", not the English word "reproduction". The meaning of the word "rozmnoženina" means rather "a copy" or "a multiplication". A photo of myself CANNOT be considered as a "rozmonoženina" of myself. A photo of a three-dimensional toy cannot be a "rozmnoženina" of the toy, as well as a narration about the toy cannot be considered as a "rozmnoženina" of the toy. --ŠJů (talk) 03:48, 2 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

File:ARA Belgrano sinking.jpg

edit

Hello, i found that the file File:ARA Belgrano sinking.jpg was deleted with the assumption it has copyright by AP wich is not true, since on 1984 the argentine autor of the photo (Martin F. Sgut) did take legal actions and a judge of a New York court ruled that the photos were stolen from him, the real autor. The photo was originally taken by "Capitán de fragata Martín F. Sgut" (Argentine Navy, Frigate captain, Martin F. Sgut) and was stolen and then published illegally at the US. and its under public domain on Argentina. because it was published on argentina (one of the many that punblished it on argentina) may 13, 1982 on the Argentine megazine "revista Gente" (numnero extraordinario/special edition) you can see the photo on the magazine cover at this website that collect covers from magazines here [2] buth even that you can find that photo published in argentina and since those US publications had it ilegaly, then they never had any copyright over that photo.

the same apply to any other photo of the Belgrano sinking, since he did take several photos and he was the only one taking pictures so there is no place for doubts.

you can read here (spanish), but the info its all over the web and if anyone know how to search through NY Court files it should not be that hard to find those records,

http://www.lanacion.com.ar/1461073-la-foto-robada-que-hizo-historia http://www.elobservador.com.uy/noticia/221590/una-foto-robada-que-hundio-a-argentina/

here you can see the photo used citing the true autor

http://blog.yaninapatricio.com/tag/belgrano/

is so obvious as you can see on this Daily Mail Australia news site that the photo is public domain, as you can see on the article i link bellow every photo is with a copyright on the bottom corner BUT the one taken from Martin Sgut. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2256369/Argentina-accuses-UK-colonialism-holding-Falkland-Islands.html


the photo is this one File:ARA Belgrano sinking.jpg and where i foudn why it was deleted is this link here Commons:Deletion_requests/File:ARA_Belgrano_sinking.jpg

i hope that i did gather all needed info to futfill all it was needed to restore the photo and give proper recognition to the original autor even if it is under public domain and does not need to, will be great to let ppl know who did take the picture here at commons.

the licence should PD-AR-Photo

BTWː the autor, Argentine Navy, frigate captain, Martin F. Sgut, died on january 4, 2010 --WiZaRd SaiLoR (talk) 20:00, 27 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

 Support I've read the links provided by Wizard Sailor and seem to clarify that the copyright belongs to captain Sgut. Therefore, according to {{PD-AR-Photo}}, it's in the public domain in Argentina. As the picture was published in Argentina on 13 May 1982 and in the US on 8 May 1982, it can be covered by one of the exceptions of the URAA applicability (Works simultaneously published in the US and abroad (defined as publication in the US within 30 days) are not affected.). Best regards --Discasto talk | contr. | es.wiki analysis 22:26, 27 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
It's IMO worth pointing out for the record that if the publication in the US was 'pirated' (without the permission of the copyright owner), which is apparently the case, then it would not count... publication must be legal. Revent (talk) 23:06, 27 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
 Support I pointed this out during the original deletion request, AP couldn't have copyright. WCMemail 22:30, 27 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
 Comment Unfortunately, due to the age of the case and the vagueness of the description of the venue (just 'a New York court') it's probably not possible to locate the actual decision online... it was probably a federal court case, and predates the electronic archives by well over a decade. My attempts to find it, at least, were unsuccessful, but we can probably proceed on the basis of RS articles documenting the decision. Seems fairly clearcut, tbh. Revent (talk) 22:58, 27 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I also make some searches and only found Spanish-speaking references (mainly Argentinean and Uruguayan news papers). They're mainstream newspapers so that I think they're reliable references. My only concern relates to URAA. If the US edition is "pirate" (it was done without the consent of the copyright owner), URAA would bee applicable, wouldn't be? --Discasto talk | contr. | es.wiki analysis 00:54, 28 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
 Comment i dont know the judge name, but the info from the links i found, and already provided, state that on 1984 Captain Sgut, did start legal actions on "those NY courts" aganist The New York Times, Newsweek, Associated Press and an agency called Gamma-Liasson. maybe this may help to search--WiZaRd SaiLoR (talk) 03:06, 28 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
@WiZaRd SaiLoR: The (presumably) relevant online archive only goes back to 1996 (unfortunately). To get the actual ruling would require a request for a search of paper archives, but we can 'presume' that the reporting in reliable sources of the judgement was accurate (i.e. that AP does not own the photo). Given that, the photo seems to be obviously PD in Argentina, the only real question is if it is not PD in the in the US because of the URAA. Revent (talk) 11:56, 28 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Previous DR
This file has been nominated by Green Giant, indicating the Privacy Policies of the SECOM (based on the the Decree 100 of 2006) forbids the comermcial uses of the media published in the government Websites.

But, in 2010, Ena von Baer wrote and published the Oficio Ord. 112/14 in reference of the Law 19.032, that explicitilly instructs all the media released by the Government of Chile and its institutions must be licensed under the CC-BY. Therefore, all the media works (pictures, audio and video) released/published after the December 30 of 2010 are automatically covered under the {{CC-GobCL}}, according to the current Law.

Also, the Article 4 of the Decree 14 0f 2014 derogated the Decree 100 of 2006, making the Privacy Policies indicated by Green Giant also derogated and not longer valid. Only the Oficio Ord. 112/14 of 2010, the Law 19.799 and the Law 19.032 (and other Laws) are now valid and legal for this effect. So, this older file is also covered under the CC-BY license.

In summary, the file is efefctivelly covered under the CC-BY license according to the current Chilean Laws. So, please undelete this file.

Anyway, I' ve contacted to the Government of Chile according to the Ley de Transparencia, in order to clarify the doubts of the non-chilean people that are not familiar with the Chilean laws, and specifically, the licensing of the National Anthem of Chile. --Amitie 10g (talk) 19:52, 12 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

There are several issues here. Amitie has explained here (for the first time) that the decree on which the problematic privacy policy is based has been overruled. That's good. However, there is also the question of whether the Chilean government actually owns all of the necessary copyrights in order to make this performance PD. The national anthem, as a work, is probably PD, but musical performances have many copyrights and it is not clear that all of them are PD in this case.
Orchestral works have separate copyrights for the music, for the lyrics (if any), for the arrangement (the composer of a national anthem usually writes it for one instrument -- an orchestral performance requires that it be arranged separately for each of the orchestral instruments), and for the performance itself. Even if the government says that the work is PD, please make sure that you can prove that the government actually owns the copyright to the performance -- I don't know the Chilean law on the subject, but in the USA for that to be true, all of the orchestra would have to be employees of the Federal government. .     Jim . . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 13:26, 13 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
No doubts about all the works released after December 30 of 2010 are automatically covered under the CC-BY (that the Chilean Laws say clearly), but the licensing of the works released between June to December of 2010 (like this specific file) is disputed, I agree; as I know, these works are also covered under the CC-BY (unlike the Patrimonio cultural común or PD, as I previously mentioned). So, as I said, I've contacted to the Government of Chile, so the answer will clarify the actual licensing of the National Anthem, and will be the definitive answer to the case. --Amitie 10g (talk) 18:29, 13 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Update: I just recived the answer from the Government of Chile. The official answer says the file is efefctivelly covered under the CC-BY license. Bellow is the email recived (in spanish) (publicly available according to the Ley de Transparencia):


Message from the Government of Chile:
De: Transparencia <transparencia@presidencia.cl>

Fecha: 17 de noviembre de 2014, 12:00

Asunto: Respuesta a solicitud de información

Para: "david.munoz.vergara@gmail.com" <david.munoz.vergara@gmail.com>

ANT.: Ingreso Nº AA001W-0000915

Estimado David Muñoz Vergara:

Se ha recibido en esta Institución, la solicitud de información pública citada en el antecedente, mediante la cual requiere lo siguiente:

“Estimados. Solicito información sobre el uso y licenciamiento de los símbolos oficiales del estado, específicamente el Himno nacional dispuesto para descarga en http://www.gob.cl/himno-nacional/ Según la información provista, dichas versiones del Himno están publicadas bajo la licencia CC-BY-SA, la cual permite usos comerciales, pero en otro documento contradice eso. El problema es que el archivo fue convertido de MP3 a OGG y subido a Wikimedia Commons para ser usado en Wikipedia, pero ha sido borrado debido a las inconsistencia en el licenciamiento de esta "obra derivada" de un trabajo del siglo XIX. Si el himno original está en el Patrimonio cultural común, ¿Eastán estas versiones del Himno Nacional en el Patrimonio cultural común también o bajo una licencia específica? Agradezco una pronta respuesta Atte: David Muñoz V.”

Al respecto, informo lo que a continuación se indica:

1.- La Presidencia de la República, tiene como función apoyar en todo lugar, a S.E. la Presidenta de la República y sus asesores, brindándoles los servicios necesarios para su gestión, administrando eficaz y eficientemente los recursos humanos, financieros y materiales disponibles, fundados en los valores de lealtad y transparencia y entre otros suscribir los contratos de suministros de bienes y servicios que se requieran para el desarrollo y funciones de esta institución. Aclarada la misión institucional, la Presidencia de la República no concentra la información de todos los órganos y servicios públicos que forman parte de la Administración del Estado, solo aquella que dice relación con la misión institucional.

2.- En virtud de lo dispuesto en el artículo 13 y 30 de la Ley Nº 20.285 y Reglamento respectivo, dispone que: “En caso que el órgano de la Administración requerido no sea competente para ocuparse de la solicitud de información o no posea los documentos solicitados, enviará de inmediato la solicitud a la autoridad que deba conocerla según el ordenamiento jurídico, en la medida que ésta sea posible de individualizar, informando de ello al peticionario. Cuando no sea posible individualizar al órgano competente o si la información solicitada pertenece a múltiples organismos, el órgano requerido comunicará dichas circunstancias al solicitante”, por lo cual informo a usted que derivo la solicitud en referencia, a la Subsecretaría General de Gobierno, del Ministerios Secretaría General de Gobierno, mediante Oficio Nº 1001, de fecha 17 de noviembre de 2014, el que adjunto.

Saluda atentamente a usted,
Director Administrativo
Presidencia de la República

Therefore, please restore this file. Anyway, I sended a message to OTRS. --Amitie 10g (talk) 19:11, 17 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The people at Presidency have, basically, derivated the request to another State organ, the Government General Subsecretariat. We will have to wait until the guys at the Subsecretariat respond to your query. This email does not prove the anthem is CC-BY. In fact, it does not say anything of value. --Diego Grez return fire 19:26, 17 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I have made several transparency requests over time to the Presidency of Chile, and based on the text you've attached above, they haven't given you any response in regard to the copyright status of the Chilean anthem. As I told you, we'll have to wait until the Subsecretariat responds, regards, Diego Grez return fire 17:34, 18 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Then, I'll just wait. And also, for the other UD bellow, I'm waiting for more than a month from the Gendarmerie of Chile. --Amitie 10g (talk) 17:42, 18 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Procedural close as currently inactionable; this needs to be resolved via OTRS when we hear back from the presidency of Chile anyways -FASTILY 19:17, 22 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I'm reopening this UnDR, because I recived the answer from the Government of Chile with several official documents attached, and resended it to OTRS team. This request has been sended more than two monts ago and OTRS did not answered them.

In summary, and according to the official documents from the Government of Chile, the file is effectivelly covered under the {{CC-GobCL}} license and must be restored as soon as possible.

Most of the DRs of files from the Government of Chile were opened by non-chilean users those are unfamiliar with the Government of Chile's licensing. This issue has been discussed several time. --Amitie 10g (talk) 16:50, 3 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi!

This is Alberto Perez and I’m the administrator of Mr. Baltazar Hinojosa’s information pages such as the one with you in Wikipedia and the following ones:

http://www.aserca.gob.mx/somosaserca/Jefe/Paginas/default.aspx


Today I noticed the picture I uploaded in February it’s been deleted and that’s why I’m writing this, Mr. Baltazar Hinojosa is a Mexican Politician who has been congressman for 2 periods, mayor of his City and right now he’s a General Director of ASERCA with the Ministry of Agriculture. The picture was taken while he was on his last period as a member of Congress back in 2012.

Theres a file with the picture that hopefully can be used.

I ask to undelete these files (2 files). After a lengthy discussion they were deleted with the argument "We can't accept those files per com:PCP". The PCP says "significant doubt". The discussion shows there is no significant doubt. In fact there is a statement that these images are free of copyright. Doubt has been raised (but not substantiated) about the interpretation of this statement and later about the ownership of the copyright. --Jan Arkesteijn (talk) 21:56, 4 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

 Oppose First of all, I referred to the discussion and the PCP. Secondly I agree with Jim's comments about significant doubt plus the release is a bit odd. Sloppy and I'm not sure that it has a legal basis since it is unlikely that you can waive all the copyrights in the country of origin. The Netherlands. The fact that we are dealing with a content provider who isn't careful with the copyright of others and makes vague copyright statements equals significant doubt imho.

File:Dudley Moore Beyond the Fringe 1962.JPG

edit

This was deleted because it's claimed that the New York Public Library owns the rights to the photo. The photo was not obtained from the NYPL and it has both front and back uncropped copies of the photo with a date stamp on the back. The photographer is Friedman-Abeles, who at one time, took photos of many Broadway performers on and off stage. A Commons search for "Friedman-Abeles" The entity who would have owned the copyright, photographer, Friedman-Abeles, did not copyright mark the photo, therefore it's before 1978 and not marked. NYPL also claims copyright on their copy of File:Tsuru Aoki (ca. 1915).jpg; the discussion is here. NYPL doesn't own the rights to the Dudley Moore photo any more than to the Tsuru Aoki one. We hope (talk) 23:17, 4 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The photos for the "Beyond the Fringe" revue are not even online from NYPL. One has to visit the libary to view them. Basically, we can't know what photos they claim to own copyright on unless we go to the librar.y I've now localed their Friedman-Abeles Collection and note the NYPL doesn't display any backs for their photos. We hope (talk) 23:34, 4 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
 Oppose The fact that a pre-1978 photo does not have a copyright notice proves nothing -- it was not necessary that notice appeared on the photo. Notice was required only when the photo actually published, and a single copy of a photo was not publication under the 1911 law (or under the new law, for that matter). In order to restore the image, you will have to prove that the photo was published without a copyright notice.
This is widely misunderstood on Commons. Photos that were used in newspapers and magazines almost never had copyright notices on the prints because they were seen only internally, or, in the case of wire services and outside contract suppliers, were subject to a separate contract which included a notice requirement for all publication. The only photos from that period of importance to us that would have to have notice are those that accompanied widely distributed press releases.
An example: A free-lance photographer takes 20 pictures at an event. He sends prints to a magazine, which selects one for publication and returns the other 19 to the photographer. He puts the 19 in his archive. At some point after 1989, the photographer or his heirs sell or donate the archive. At no point in this process do any of the 20 prints have a copyright notice on them -- it wasn't needed because sending them to the magazine is not publication. The print of the published image is in the magazine's archive without a notice, but is covered by the magazine's masthead copyright notice. The other 19 are all unpublished before 1989, therefore they are all under copyright until 70 years after the photographer's death.

 Oppose per Jim. It's also worth noting that there is no license at the Wikifur fan page, just the general site license. The argument above is generally akin to saying this image is actually free because the English Wikipedia has a CC-by-SA license. This is clearly license laundering. Эlcobbola talk 15:56, 5 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

- Commons:Deletion requests/File:Orthodox Cathedral Tirana.jpg - Needs to be undeleted

edit

The file was deleted based on No-FoP in Albania . I will assume good faith here , however let me be very clear , the photo is not a Panorama , and even if so according to the law of Albania as per text : ' "It is allowed without the author’s approval and without payment or remuneration the reproduction, broadcasting or the communication to the public by wire of a picture of an architectonic work,'. I find this deletion very unmerited , and excluding wp:goodfaith very intentional , because it removes one of the 3 main religions present in Albania , in a way diminishing its presence in wikipedia . As an adherent of this religion i am extremely offended by this - to say the least- unmerited act of deletion Gjirokastra15 (talk) 15:10, 5 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

 Oppose I suggest that, as a brand new editor here, before you make wild accusations about the deletion of an image that you learn a little more about Commons and about Albanian copyright law. Albanian law is clear -- the image infringes on the architect's copyright and cannot be kept on Commons without a free license from the architect. I don't know if it was deliberate, but your quote from Albanian law did not include the whole sentence:
"It is allowed without the author’s approval and without payment or remuneration the reproduction, broadcasting or the communication to the public by wire of a picture of an architectonic work, of a fine arts work, photographic work or applied arts work placed in a public area, excluding the cases when the picture is the main theme of the reproduction, broadcasting or communication and when it is used for commercial purposes." [emphasis added]
Commons requires that images be free for commercial purposes. .     Jim . . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 16:21, 5 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
So let me understand this , because i must be obviously dumb , even if some iq tests do say otherwise . In other words you say that the church cannot be represented by a photo in Wikipedia because the architect of the church does not want his work to be seen by other people ? Human stupidity does reach a climax when laws are interpreted automatically en bloc -and selectively- . It requires a level of independence as well , and common sense . So let me understand is there a definition as to when a photo is defined as the main theme of the reproduction ? But anyways .... P.S I am a brand editor here , and as such i shall remain . Gjirokastra15 (talk) 18:02, 5 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Oppose per Jim. Gjirokastra15 ignores the rest of the relevant paragraph that excludes commercial usage. "[T]he church cannot be represented by a photo in Wikipedia because the architect of the church does not want his work to be seen by other people ?" is nonsense and not remotely what is being claimed (see also COM:PRP #3). Copyright is granted upon creation and, in the case of architecture, the world is free to view the work, but not necessarily to exploit it for their own commercial purposes.

See village pump. File was deleted on suspicion of copyvio, yet similar files are kept. See also the original nomination page.

(Has it become policy to remove a request before one even has the opportunity to respond?) Oystercard.jpg and Metro Card of Taipei London NYC DC Boston Atlanta collect by Howard61313.JPG are the very same type of pictures as Anonymous and personal OV-chipkaarts.jpg. I would like to know why exactly the first two are TOO and the OV-Chipcard pictures are not. Otherwise, either restore the OV-Chipcard pictures or delete the other two. There is no reason to believe specifically the OV-Chipcard pictures are DW but other public transport tickets are not. PPP (talk) 00:09, 6 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

File:Von Wahldresdner gelöschter Adminproblemfall.png

edit

Please restore the following:

I need this file on German Wikipedia, it is part of an official complaint I made there that details wrongdoings of an admin. As the person who deleted this file is also active on German Wikpedia, I wonder if the real reason they deleted it is that they or somebody that got them to delete it wants to censor inconvenient information about one of their friends.

--Distelfinck (talk) 15:56, 5 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

 Oppose I agree with the deleting Admin that the file is out of scope. Commons is not a repository for screenshots of WP history that can be easily created from the history of the page in question. .     Jim . . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 16:10, 5 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
The page in question is deleted, so this screenshot is the only way for most people to view the page's contents. --Distelfinck (talk) 16:15, 5 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
That may be, but it still doesn't put it in scope on Commons. Commons does not exist to make it possible to see images or pages that have been deleted from other parts of the project. We do not interfere in the work of WP:DE and we expect that WP:DE will not interfere here. If the page needs to be seen on WP:DE, then it should be restored there, not here. .     Jim . . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 16:29, 5 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
The German Wikipedia page the image was put on about a month ago has been viewed by hundreds of people, and nobody there has ever said that they wouldn't like the image. So this is not interfering with German Wikipedia. --Distelfinck (talk) 16:41, 5 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

 Support If the German Wikipedia accepted local uploads, this file could be regarded as out of scope. But, as it seems, the German Wikipedia does not accept local uploads, and therefore, commons is the only place where to upload it. Commons must also support each project (remember that Commons acts as a common repository for the various projects of the Wikimedia Foundation) and supporting its internal procedures is also part of commons mission. Once the complain has been sorted out, it could be deleted, but not before. Best regards --Discasto talk | contr. | es.wiki analysis 18:50, 5 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Discasto: You are misinformed. Local uploads are possible at de:wp. --AFBorchert (talk) 10:51, 6 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
 Oppose Out of scope. This is a screenshot of a discussion that took place on de:Benutzer_Diskussion:2A02:810A:8FC0:1CD0:C817:F560:BE6E:8481. Any admin at de.wiki can restore that page and move it to a temporary discussion page. No local uploading would be required. INeverCry 20:29, 5 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

And, if that event does not happen (an admin restoring the page)? If Distelfinck's statement is true (admin wrongdoing), they it's highly likely that no admin will restore it. Again, commons is the repository of all the Wikimedia projects and whatever is needed for the normal way of working of any internal procedure in any Wikimedia project is IN scope. Commons not only serves readers. Also editors. --Discasto talk | contr. | es.wiki analysis 21:21, 5 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Oppose A screenshot of a de.wiki talk page is not within or scope. If you believe the content is necessary for a discussion on de.wiki, upload it to Flickr or a similar service and provide a link to it. The Commons simply is not the place for such an image. Эlcobbola talk 21:56, 5 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

User:INeverCry and User:elcobbola, why do you think the screenshot is out of scope for Commons? Is it because maybe all files that are useful on only one Wikimedia project are out of scope for Commons? Usefulness for at least two projects is a requirement? --Distelfinck (talk) 22:48, 5 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

 Comment Sorry guys, but the more I analyze the case, the more disturbing it seems.

First of all, this file seems to have been speedy deleted. Speedy deletions are regulated in Commons:Criteria for speedy deletion and, out-of-scope is simply not a criteria for speedy deletion. So, to start with, this discussion should not be in 'Undeletion requests', but in a proper DR. Even worse, the file was speedy deleted, but by any unknown reason, the uploader was not warned or notified (it's not required by the policy, but it'd have been needed considering that the uploader and the administrator had a previous relationship involving this file and the complaint it supports, see below).

Secondly, you mention out-of-scope, but fortunately we have policies that explain our mission:

The aim of Wikimedia Commons is to provide a media file repository:

  • that makes available public domain and freely-licensed educational media content to all, and
  • that acts as a common repository for the various projects of the Wikimedia Foundation.

You seem to focus on the first item but carefully avoid the second one. Commons is the "repository for the various projects of the Wikimedia Foundation". As such, it hosts thousands of pictures (in Category:Wikipedia screenshots) that lacks any educational value at all but supports internal discussions, troubleshooting requests, help files... This screenshot is exactly the same as any of the screenshots in the category I've mentioned.

However, what seems more disturbing is the final effect of the deletion: alleged admin (in de.wiki) wrongdoing, official complaint in de.wiki with evidences, and eventually the evidences are removed by a German Wikipedia admin (which happens to be an admin also here) on the grounds of out of scope!!! Even if it isn't censorship for sure, it looks exactly like that, especially considering that the very same admin that removes the file is, at the same time, an admin taking actively part in the complaint discussion in the German wikipedia (see here) and extensively discussing with the uploader of the file (see here). Thus, if we go back and quote Jim above (We do not interfere in the work of WP:DE and we expect that WP:DE will not interfere here) it seems that the very same admin that is taking part in the discussion in the German Wikipedia is the one that brings interference here by deleting a file that shouldn't have been {{Speedydeletion}} (it does not fulfill any speedy deletion criteria), and therefore should have deserved a proper DR. @Reinhard Kraasch: 's conflict of interest is pretty obvious and I do think that he shouldn't have, under any circumstance, interfere here by speedy deleting a file that should have, in any case, undergone a proper deletion request procedure. --Discasto talk | contr. | es.wiki analysis 23:09, 5 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

This begins with the deletion of the page at de.wiki. If a screencap has to be uploaded here because of a deletion done at de.wiki, what's that say about the de.wiki deletion of the original page? Why should users have to bypass deletions on de.wiki by uploading screencaps here? That sounds like a problem to me. Perhaps this is something that should be brought to the attention of de.wiki Arbcom? INeverCry 23:57, 5 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
German Wikipedia doesn't have anything against this file, to the contrary it is included in one of their pages (although currently it is not shown, because: the deletion here on Commons we're talking about). The reason I chose to upload this screenshot file, instead of posting the same information as text on German Wikipedia, is that the former was the easier of the two methods --Distelfinck (talk) 00:57, 6 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Support No matter if it is to any real educational value, Commons is a repository for all kinds of images used on Wikimedia sites and since German WIkipedia do not have local uploads, Commons is the place to go. It is not our job to judge how the file is used, for as long as it is in use on a project it is also in scope for Commons. Josve05a (talk) 01:07, 6 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Support If it's in reasonably valid use, it's in scope. Commons should not undercut other projects. This sounds like it might have a time limit on its usefulness on the de-wiki project though, so once that matter is resolved, it would be appreciated to nominate it for deletion. Carl Lindberg (talk) 01:38, 6 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
This is a screencap of a discussion from de:Benutzer_Diskussion:2A02:810A:8FC0:1CD0:C817:F560:BE6E:8481. Why is it a better option to host a screencap of the de.wiki page here, rather than simply having the page itself restored on de.wiki and moved if needed? Why are we advocating the circumvention of the deletion of the page at de.wiki? INeverCry 10:09, 6 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Delete This is a screenshot of a discussion which was subsequently speedily deleted as a trollish case (original quote: IMHO schnellöschfähige Trollerei (siehe AP-Intro). Bitte um zweites Augenpaar). Admins of de:wp find the original content here. There is no valid reason to revive this anywhere else and at Commons it is surely out of COM:SCOPE. All regular procedures to review this deletion exists at de:wp, i.e. de:WP:LP and the local arbcom. --AFBorchert (talk) 10:47, 6 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Delete Out of scope. Conflict/drama imported to commons. --Steinsplitter (talk) 11:10, 6 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
On German Wikpedia, not one word has been said to date in opposition to this screenshot file. There is no conflict about this file on German Wikipedia, so there is no conflict that can be imported from there into Commons. User:Reinhard Kraasch, who deleted this file here on Commons, could have first tried to have this file removed from the page on German Wikipedia where it's embedded, but he didn't do that, because he would'nt have been successful with that. Commons:Project scope says that Commons "acts as a common repository for the various projects of the Wikimedia Foundation", and as the file is embedded on German Wikipedia, it is in scope for Commons. --Distelfinck (talk) 15:16, 6 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Again, this file could be uploaded to WP:DE, which does permit local uploads. It could be uploaded to Flickr and linked from there. Or, the page could be restored at WP:DE by any Administrator there. The fact that Distelfinck apparently can not get any of the 247 Admins on WP:DE to restore the page there suggests strongly that Steinsplitter is entirely correct -- that it is a trollish case. In any event, there is no reason why we should be interfering in WP:DE's affairs. .     Jim . . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 15:32, 6 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

This discussion is long overdone. We have some quality opinions from 5 of our most experienced admins opposing undeletion for various reasons. I don't think that I have to repeat their arguments again but here is some motivation: I believe INC hits the nail on the head with his rhetorical question. Why are we advocating the circumvention of the deletion of the page at de.wiki? Well, we don't. That will import drama to Commons and more important it would undermine local communities. The file was not legitimately in use, I see no educational value and if the German Wikipedia has nothing against this file it can be uploaded locally. Commons isn't some storage for complaints deleted from local wiki's. This can create a very, very dangerous precedent. This is gaming the system in it's purest form.

Request for undeletion coat of arms

edit

L.S.

Reason for request of undeletion: the file was deleted due to lacking copyrights (according to the moderator). This specific file is a coat of arms issued by the State of the Netherlands. Based upon the Royal Decree of 23 April 1919 (published in the Netherlands Government Gazette no. 181) and Royal Decree of 21 October 1977 (published in the Netherlands Government Gazette no. 605) the right to carry the coat of arms of any city or municipality lays with that city/ municipality. The copyright is NOT owned by those cities/ municipalities if the coat of arms is used in scientific publications (e.g. an encyclopedia or other) as stated by the Netherlands Ministry of the Interior, letter B79/2199 of 3 September 1979. This implicates that any coat of arms of any city or municipality in the Netherlands is free of rights/ copyright in scientific publications.

That "permission" is insufficient in two ways -- it does not say permission for what. Commons requires an explicit free license such as CC-BY or CC-BY-SA. Also, permission from the subject is not useful -- we need permission from the actual copyright holder, which is usually the photographer. Since the image includes an award plaque, we will also require permission from the creator of the plaque.

Commons:Deletion requests/Files in Category:Albert Heijn

edit

I believe that I overlooked some important aspects that where not mentioned in the discussion so I would like to ask for a second opinion. While it is not an anonymous work since it was credited to Albert Heijn and not to an artist. Some of the images of the bottom of the cans might only show details that are be below TOO. If we call Albert Heijn the author the copyright term would be 70 years after publication since it is a work of a company without an idenvidual author listed. That could mean that the design of the cans has run out of copyright years ago. Any thoughts? (This request is not about the files mentioned by Discasto) Natuur12 (talk) 23:43, 4 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

That sounds like a general "make it so" for any admin–of course excl. the admin who changed their mind and suggested/requested the undeletion, for a "four eyes" effect—amending any archived deletion request log as required to document what happened. Apparently COM:UD is no guideline or policy, maybe that could be simply implemented without much ado. –Be..anyone (talk) 05:00, 5 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
 Oppose I read Commons:Copyright_rules_by_territory#Netherlands to mean that the argument above requires that the tins do not have an artist's signature. So, although Natuur12's argument is tempting, it rests on something that is unproven. There could easily be the artist's signature or initials in the fine print on the side of the tin. There are two reasons that a corporation would give the artist credit -- first, it's a small reward to the employee who did the work that doesn't cost anything. Second, since naming the artist would increase the copyright life of the tin (from 70 years after publication to 70 years after death of the artist), it would be routine for a corporation to it. Therefore, I do not think we can restore these. .     Jim . . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 13:08, 5 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Those cans are collectors items in the Netherlands so perhaps some Dutch users have them at home. Let me ask in the local village pump. Natuur12 (talk) 17:42, 5 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
A local user checked his three Albert Heijn cans he has at home and he can't find a name or an autograph. It is not uncommon that this kind of cans are not credited in the Netherlands. Especially back than. Natuur12 (talk) 19:28, 5 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
That's a step in the right direction, but it still remains unproven that the tins shown here are older than 70 years and that they in particular do not have a signature. Unless the cans have a date on them, how do we know their age? .     Jim . . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 16:12, 6 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
The desing of one of the cans (File:Albert Heijn blik met koets, onderkant.JPG + file:Albert Heijn blik met koets.JPG is from 1920. There is some bug that prevents me from viewing the images so I'll have a look for the other ones after it's fixed. Natuur12 (talk) 16:53, 6 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
The "gestampte muisjes" cans are from 1960 so those need to stay deleted. Natuur12 (talk) 17:33, 6 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I can't find any dates of the other cans (the uploader mentioned from the 30's but since one of the cans is way younger we can't use that statement imho) so I believe this one can closed by an uninvolved admin. I could mail the company who produced those cans of course but that seems more like a job for the uploader to me. Natuur12 (talk) 20:43, 7 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Why always the pictures that i upload are deleted. I have explained many times that this is the picture of a Child Actress and it is not copyrighted. but you delete it, I can't understand how to upload the picture that it should not get deleted. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ans.fahmad (talk • contribs) 12:01, 9 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I am not a lawyer, but my understanding is that, in most countries, photographs are copyrighted when they are created, even if they do not display a copyright notice ("Copyright © 2015 Some Person or Entity"). If the photograph is recent, it is most likely copyrighted.
The easiest way to upload pictures that will not be deleted is to upload only pictures you've made yourself. If you want to upload something you haven't made yourself, you should check if the creator gives permission for everyone to use it (for example, by using a Creative Commons license). This permission must allow commercial use and changes to the picture.

  •  Oppose Down through my sig, the material above is a copy of Commons:Deletion requests/Files uploaded by Oursmili, which I closed last August. I don't see that there is any new information here -- these are military badges and insignia which may or may not be PD, but no evidence has been provided to prove that. In order to keep them we would need to know the designer's name and when he died.
Note that a DR with the same name and issues is open now with new uploads. .     Jim . . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 11:10, 7 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Les insignes et logos français sans auteur sont en PD-Old et deviennent libre de droit 70 ans après leurs premières publications donc les insignes du 42eRT et des FFA et de la majorité des régiments sont libres de droits, c'est juste la loi française. Oursmili (talk) 13:36, 7 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
First, I see nothing in the French law that makes these any different from any other created work -- copyright lasts for 70 years after the death of the creator, not 70 years after publication. Second, you have done nothing to prove that these are even 70 years old. Third, there is the issue I raised at the current DR, that these are all very small images -- that is unusual for "own work". Unless you can upload images at camera resolution, we will have to assume that these are not in fact your work, but that of some other photographer. .     Jim . . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 16:13, 7 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I think they are claiming {{Anonymous-EU}}, which is 70 years from publication. I can't see them but the other concerns sound valid. Carl Lindberg (talk) 09:29, 8 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
The fact that we don't know the creator's name does not make them anonymous works. To claim {{Anonymous-EU}} you have to prove that the work was, in fact, anonymous. I doubt very much that there is no record in the French military archives of who created each of these. .     Jim . . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 11:31, 8 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
The author's identity needed to have been made public within 70 years of publication, and not simply recorded in private archives. Carl Lindberg (talk) 16:10, 8 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Oh, and the 70 years from publication term also holds if the work is created by multiple people, and when the "personal contributions of the various authors who participated in its production are merged in the overall work for which they were conceived, without it being possible to attribute to each author a separate right in the work as created." (Article L113-2). I think they are stating that is the typical situation for military insignia. So it may not even be enough to know someone was involved; they have to be able to identify portions which are solely that person's work. I think 70 years from publication is a reasonable guess as to the copyright term of the original insignia. But there may be a separate right on photographs of them.

Bonjour messieurs : Lien d'explication.
Oursmili (talk) 16:31, 8 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

In short, this discussion was about allowing these ensigns on the French Wikipedia under fair use when needed. As Carl said above, these ensigns have a copyright, but this copyright is owned by the regiment, not the person who created it. So ensigns older than 70 years are acceptable here. Regards, Yann (talk) 21:09, 8 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Oppose Anonymous-EU is not a get out of jail free card. Whatever may be the case "in the real world," the Commons has proprietary policies of COM:EVID, COM:L and COM:PRP. Anonymous-EU may conceivably be true, but supporting evidence is mandatory, even when it's inconvenient. I don't see that anyone here has made a genuine effort to determine provenance of these insignia; we don't host images on baseless speculation. However, even if we were to stipulate that the insignia are public domain, there remains significant doubt that Oursmili is the author of the images thereof. The technical characteristics are radically different between images; for example, File:7eme Cie.jpg and File:Insigne 5eme Cie.gif are similar in what they seek to depict, yet, for no discernible reason: a) one is a .jpg and one is a .gif; b) one is relatively large (720 × 960) and one is very much smaller (201 × 246); and c) one is amateurish (for File:7eme Cie.jpg: note the mismatch in red backgrounds from the animal to the greater insignia and the blurred top line contrasted with the sharpness of the text) while File:Insigne 5eme Cie.gif has uniform sharpness and color. Similar issues exist through the whole of the images listed and I find it very difficult to believe a single author would have such significant variation from one image to the next.

The OTRS ticket appears to be OK, but I question the educational value of the second and third images -- they are fundamentally advertising and violate COM:ADVERT. The subject is a young man who died at age 18 of a heart defect. He does have an article on WP:EN, largely written by his mother..     Jim . . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 13:27, 8 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Jim; The issue here is, while I can see the images mentioned in the ticket, I have no idea which one is which on here, hence why I defer undeletion to the admins discretion. If you think the page has enough images already, I'll happily pass that on, and I'm already going through and rewriting the article on en, and judging notability. In any case, please let me know what action will be taken. --Mdann52talk to me! 15:49, 8 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
The first is a photo of him parasailing, which seems OK. The second is the cover of his book (and, by the way, depending on the publishing arrangements, his mother may not have the right to license it here), which seems to me a bit too much. The third looks like a billboard advertisement -- very wide image of him with text over advertising the fund, which seems way too much a problem with COM:ADVERT.
I'm leaving the decision to our colleagues because I know I have a POV that may not be universal. .     Jim . . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 18:13, 8 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I'm guessing I agree with the first one then, the other two probably shouldn't be restored. Even if not used in an article, guess we could stick it in a category with the others on here. --Mdann52talk to me! 10:59, 10 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

File:Wolfman1.jpg, File:Wolf. Big screen.jpg, File:Alfonso Noel by Tavo

edit

Hello dear sirs

These 3 files are the first file I have tried to upload ever after many years as a contributor.

1) File:Wolfman1.jpg, is a photo that was taken of Alfonso Noel Lovo, my real name, me, with a paid photographer, Yusnel Suarez, for my upcoming show at the Rio Loco festival 2014 in Toulouse, France. It has no actual copyright, and it belongs to me, so there is no real infringement. This was my artist photo, and I own it. It will be used in my next album.

2) File:Wolf. Big screen.jpg is a photo I took watching my performance at a TV show, in Miami FL on 2013, where I performed, Fernando Hidalgo Show, in Mega TV, which is a show that has been pulled off the air.

3) File:Alfonso Noel by Tavo is a photo of a painting that was given to me by my childhood friend and amateur artist Tavo Cervantes in my hometown in Managua Nicaragua.

There is no rela infringement of anybody's rights to the best of my knowledge in any of these images. And I thought is was necessary to have some artists images, or photos in Wikipedia for Alfonso Noel Lovo.

If there has been a mistake I apologize for not being an expert in this system ..

Thank you and I respectfully request undeletion on these images, so the public can have some images of me as an artist in Wikipedia.

  •  Oppose all three.
1) All such images have a copyright and in the absence of an explicit written agreement with the photographer, the copyright belongs to him. Restoration here will require the photographer sending a free license to OTRS.
2) The TV show also has a copyright and that copyright still exists even though the show is no longer seen. The only thing in this image is a monitor showing the TV show. Therefore, again, restoration will require that the owner of the TV show's copyright send a free license to OTRS.
3) Owning a painting does not make you the owner of the copyright to the painting. That is almost always owned by the artist or his heirs. Restoration will require that Alfonso Noel Lovo send a free license to OTRS.

"He is a Social Personality" is irrelvant.
"that image was available in many websites without any tagline" is also irrelevant. Only images with explicit free licenses are permitted on Commons.

Also:

Several school photos were added to the "Trinity College School" Wikipedia page several years ago and were deleted in January 2015 (I will send separate requests with the deletion information of these other files shortly). The note with the deletion states that there were two different types of cameras used to take the photos that were uploaded. We often have photographers come to our campus and have our own campus Communications department (where I am a staff member) who take photos for the School as well. We are looking for these completely inoffensive and factual photos to be undeleted and reinstated onto our page. While I understand having two different camera types in the meta data would look strange, these were actual photos of our campus and crest and we would like them to be back on the page in order for there to be a visual to go with the text. We have students, alumni, parents and prospectives from all over the world who use this page as a source of information and to not have these photos will impact their perception of the School.

Thank you,

Ref:Commons:Deletion requests/Files uploaded by Tcscommunications

  •  Oppose There are several problems here. The principal reason that the images were deleted is that a single user, User:Tcscommunications, claimed "own work" on images taken with two different brands of camera within a few minutes of one another. Since very few photographers use both Nikon and Canon on the same shoot, it appears that the "own work" claim is incorrect. Also at least one of the meta-data sets shows a third party professional photographer's name.
I also note that you are now using a different user name, User:CommunicationsTCS to request undeletion. While the connection between the two is obvious, please understand that using two user names in this way is a serious violation of Commons rules. I suggest that you stop using the organizational names altogether and register individual names for each person who acts for the college -- either real names or pseudonyms.
If Trinity College in fact owns or has licenses for the copyrights for all of these images, the problem is easy to solve. Note, however, that that will probably require that written work for hire agreements are in place with all of the photographers. If that is the case, please have an authorized official of the College send a free license to OTRS. When the license has been reviewed, the images will be restored. Please understand, however, the OTRS, like Commons, is all volunteers, is badly understaffed, and has a significant backlog. It may be several weeks before the license can be reviewed.

About 5 days ago two files I uploaded were deleted. They were both png files belonging to the Protein Database of RCSB. RCSB has a free use policy, and I don't think I made that clear when I uploaded the files. Would you be able to undo the deletion so that I can specify their free use. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ajit Vakharia (talk • contribs) 15:57, 10 March 2015‎ (UTC)[reply]

since they are your only uploads. The source is http://www.rcsb.org which has a mixed policy, see:

Some files are free, with attribution requested, some are CC-BY, and some are copyrighted.
I think these images are from the "Structure Summary pages" which fall under:
"... are free of all copyright restrictions and made fully and freely available for both non-commercial and commercial use. Users of the data should attribute the original authors of that structural data."

Hello There, This is a request to please undelete the image File:VarahaVadivu.jpg since the author/owner of the media (image) Ranjan Mullaratt has sent in a mail on Mar 5, 2015 releasing the images for Wikipedia Commons use. The mail addressed to permissions-commons@wikimedia.org from the email id ranjanmullaratt@yahoo.com has released eight images of which the present image is included. The image source is from the author's book - Mullaratt, Ranjan (2014). Kalari Margam - Ancient Secrets for Modern Living. Bangalore: Kalari Gurukulam, Kalaripayattu Training and Research Center, 102, Maple Meadows, Chikkagubbi, Bangalore. ISBN 9789351963349

Please peruse the details and allow me to upload the image to the topic page I have been creating for the Indian martial arts form Kalriipayyattu - Vadivu: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Amymy/Vadivu

 Oppose OTRS which processes such requests, is, like Commons, all volunteers and badly understaffed. Their backlog may be as long a month or more, so please be patient -- the images will be undeleted when the request as been processed. Note also that if the permission is, as you say, "for Wikipedia Commons use", it will not be accepted. Commons and WP require that images be free for all use by anyone anywhere, including commercial use. .     Jim . . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 16:47, 12 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I own all rights on the subject picture. It has been deleted twice and I don't understand, what I can do to avoid. There maybe copies of that picture on the internet, but I'm anyway the rights-holder, because the person on the photography is my grandfather and the photography was made by family members..— Preceding unsigned comment added by Chrleh (talk • contribs)

  •  Oppose Firstly, merely being a relative of the photographer (being a relative of the subject is irrelevant as the author of the work would generally hold the copyright) does not make one a copyright holder. Copyrights would be formally assigned to an entity (e.g., an heir) upon the author's death, so we would require a copy of the conveyance to be submitted using the process at COM:OTRS. Secondly, the image is clearly attributed to GFF Dresden at the following link, which contradicts your claimed ownership. The aforementioned evidence would need to be submitted from GFF Dresden.

Jim, thanks for your message. I can see your point, but the file is a portrait of an author, obviously done by himself, therefore he owns the copyright for this file, and he states it's public domain.

You say
"the file is a portrait of an author, obviously done by himself...."
While I grant that it is conceivable that he set a camera on a tripod and used a self timer, it is not at all obvious to me that it is a self portrait.

  •  Oppose You made the same request last week. Do you really expect a different answer this time? The source and author of these files are shown as "Christine Hart". That's a problem two ways -- she is the subject, so she cannot be the author, and, of course, she is not you, so you cannot give a free license. As you were told before, in order to restore them, the actual author (the photographer) must send a free license to OTRS. .     Jim . . . .

This file was not under any copyright violation as I own it, I don't understand why it is being deleted? Kind Regards, Alex — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.155.226.128 (talk • contribs) 09:16, 16 March 2015‎ (UTC)[reply]

  • The uploader username is the same as one of the members of the band... it's possible the photographer signed over rights. But we'd still need some declaration of that from a verifiable address using the process at COM:OTRS, and it's also good to credit the original photographer anyways. Is the photo different than File:Naked .png, also uploaded by the same user? That also looks to be the same as the image you linked. That is used on en:Naked (band), where it looks like in January the same user overwrote a previous stub article for a different band and replaced it with info on his own. Hrm. Both would seem to be notable enough to exist as articles, though neither are linked on en:Naked (disambiguation). Carl Lindberg (talk) 13:31, 16 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Good catch, Carl. The deleted image looks the same as the PNG, except the deleted image is bigger and, of course, a different format. I think that if we get an OTRS license for the JPG, it should be restored and the PNG deleted. If User:AlexanderJohnston is, in fact, the member of the band, then he has violated WP:EN rules in several ways, most notably WP:COI. As you say, both bands appear to be notable, so a WP:EN admin should probably split the two. .     Jim . . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 14:34, 16 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hello,

You have deleted the file i uploaded MELVIL_P.jpeg. It was for reasons of copyright, but i got the photographer of the pictures (owner of the rights), she did sent Wikipedia an email authorizing the uploading of her photo on wikipedia (and putting her photo under the Creative Commons licence). I can re-send you the email, if you can't find it in your files.

Please, let me know if the photo can be restored on the site (and on Melvil Poupaud's page), or if i have to do anything else,

File:Child porn blurred.png

edit

Reason given for speedy deletion was "Out of project scope". This seems to me clearly a spurious rationale for removing this image. It clearly is fit to illustrate both articles on child pornography, on censorship, on blurring, on pixellation. It thus apperas to me that an ordinary nomination for deletion should be submitted if someone still considers the file to be inadmissible for Commons. __meco (talk) 16:19, 17 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Does it show anything which could visually be recognised as child pornography? In that case, the image probably violates child pornography laws, and therefore needs to be deleted. If that is not the case, the image is probably out of scope: a blurred out image is not useful for illustrating a topic. --Stefan4 (talk) 16:41, 17 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Files deleted here

edit

Since it was absurdly closed "without any clear consensus", I will put this here again:

Files in public domain but were marked as "own work". It's just the case to use {{PD-BrazilGov}} and {{Insignia}}. This official document states in portuguese that this coat of arms, published in 1965, belongs to a federal brazilian university, so these files are supported by {{PD-BrazilGov}} and were deleted with no justice. Could please someone be caring, not disregardful, kind enough to restore these? Or will I have to post this here every week until someone pay attention? Nakinn 20:27, 17 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Oppose per previous nomination. You have not established that a university constitutes "federal, state or municipal government." Being a "federal brazilian university" does not necessarily mean it is a government agency as contemplated by PD-BrazilGov; it could mean, for example, that it was merely established by or receives funding from the federal government. Further, if government entities do not enjoy copyright in Brazil, why does its site say "© 2015 Secretaria de Tecnologia da Informação/Divisão de Portais Universitários"? Again, as previously, you may indeed be right, but you must provide evidence that this is a bona fide government entity. Эlcobbola talk 20:55, 17 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

File:Boy with duplo blocks.jpg

edit

File was uploaded few years back to enwiki and used in a wikipedia article en:Lego_Duplo. I transferred it to commons together with translation to other language. The file was deleted, because of "missing source information", although an url to Flickr album was provided. The name of the enwiki user (uploader) and Flickr user were same. In my view, the fact, that the Flickr album was removed with time (probably because of luck of space) does not make the source wrong - urls must not stay same all the time. I have questioned the user, who deleted the file with no answer User_talk:Fastily/FAQ, and also the user, who tagged the file in question as lacking source User_talk:1989 was warned for improper tagging. Enwiki user NiggardlyNorm seems inactive. Macuser (talk) 10:46, 17 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Oppose Unfortunately, the file does not have a {{Flickrreview}} tag, so we have no way of verifying the Flickr license. Unless someone can get a license from the photographer, it must remain deleted.
I note that it shows an identifiable child -- it is very possible that it was removed from Flickr because his parents decided they didn't want his picture so publicly displayed. .     Jim . . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 12:50, 17 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
    • Your last point is absurd - even close relative would not recognize a child grown from that small age if they meet after few years of not seeing each other. Fоr the first one I am not sure - as I said the image was uploaded to en:wiki, and I transferred it to commons only recently. There seems to be no Template:Flickrreview in there. So it could not possibly been set on the file when the url was still working. However, the recent policy seems to disallow free images in enwiki, I do not know when it was enforced. Still, as of 2012 (when it was) free Flickr images were still uploaded to enwiki an my case is not unique: when there's a lag time between the uploading and the move to commons, we lose confirmation of free status, see the link again.

File:Graham (Wake Up Daddy! album).3.jpg

edit

I would like to request the following files (images) to become undeleted.

These images have been given permission to me by the photographer to use it anywhere. There is no evidence of this because we did not sign any contracts or did anything formal to give permission, except the fact that I've been told that I could use these photos anywhere I want. Hence the reason I have the original photos. If it is still unacceptable, I can give credit to the photographer in each of the pictures, as part of the description.

It can be restored to Commons only if the actual photographer sends a free license to OTRS or if the magazine sends a free license.

File:Daniel_Montenegro.jpg

edit

Can you tell me why did you deleted the file? It's a CAPTION from Public TV (official gov channel) in Argentina, which I personally made with my computer. It's PUBLIC!!! A public image edited by myself. So, I don't understand the deal with it. Did somebody called blaming about it? I don`t think so, because it's public. May be I've mistaken the license... Should have I used PD-AR-Gov?. Can it be restored? I'm getting a little tired of getting files deleted, I'm trying to do the best work for Wikipedia and learning from it, you can check my contributions. But if somebody can delete something so easily without taking any care, I'll feel no longer involved with this project. Or at least, can somebody explain it gently to me, without any of those standard messages?

Adannoes (talk) 06:42, 18 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I don't completely understand your comment. It is not a "Caption" -- it is a photograph of a soccer player, probably Daniel Montenegro. Just because it appeared on a public television channel, does not make it PD -- government works in almost all countries (the United States and, to some extent. the United Kingdom, are major exceptions) have copyrights.

Per this decision by Steinsplitter my undeletion request for this file was turned down. Steinsplitter's rationale was "we can't host blurred content as defined in U.S. Code Title 18 Section 2256". Looking at U.S. Code Title 18 Section 2256 Steinsplitter does not seem to have an adequate reading of this section of the U.S. Code. __meco (talk) 12:16, 18 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

File:Imagen 044.jpg

edit

This image was tagged as 'No source' and deleted in 2009. It had been uploaded in 2008 and was available, with no concerns, for one year and a half. Its uploader, @Argento100: claims it's his own work, stating that it was a picture that [he] took with a Nikon coolpix many years ago and was set in his home town article. As the other picture uploaded by him (File:Imagen 043.jpg) is also an amateur picture taken, according to EXIF information, with a Nikon coolpix machine, I can't see any reason not to trust Argento100's authorship. Can any administrator determine if the picture has been taken with such a camera and, therefore, restore it?

Reason: Belen Fernandez took the photo of herself and sent it to me - her mother - for the precise purpose of uploading it to her Wikipedia page, which I rewrote. Please restore. Thank you. Tower1109 (talk) 06:48, 22 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

 OpposeThere are three problems here:
First, I'm not sure I believe this is a selfie, but it might be, so I'll pass on that.
Second, you uploaded it as "own work", but now say that it was not.
Third, it appears without a free license at http://belenfernandez-writings.blogspot.ca/p/reviews-of-coffee-with-hezbollah.html
The second and third items require that the actual photographer send a free license to OTRS. It will be restored after that is processed, which may take several weeks -- OTRS, like Commons, is all volunteers and badly understaffed.
I also suggest strongly that you read and obey WP:PLAINANDSIMPLECOI -- your edits on Belén Fernández seriously violate policy there. .     Jim . . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 14:02, 22 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Files nominated by User:Jcpag2012

No copyright violations. This user seems not to understand what copyright is. I urge all administrators not to delete any files nominated by this user without a thorough review. Ruslik (talk) 18:59, 22 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, this user is filing a large number of bogus deletion requests (may indicate a fairly deep misunderstanding of copyright). I commented on a few but it seems as though lots have been deleted without much review. These must have been filed with both speedy and regular Drs; there is Commons:Deletion_requests/File:Phobos Deimos orbit Mars.jpg and Commons:Deletion requests/File:Phobos Deimos orbit Mars-nn.jpg which are unclosed but the files have been deleted. The deletion reason was "Showing orbits of Mars using JPL Solar System Simulator", which is no reason at all.  Support undeletion. Would suggest a review of any file deleted due to User:Jcpag2012. A number of DRs seem to be completely bogus, reason given is that a copy of a NASA picture was found on another website. I did see some other speedies which did get deleted of (apparently) modified NASA images, things like a picture of the sun with a red tint and a description of "artists impression of a red giant" or something like that.

File:Bust of Antoni Gaudi by Josep Maria Subirachs.jpg

I think i missed adding the licence-type. Otherwise i don´t have a clue why it was removed reffering to a copyright violation. Picture was taken by me in 2014.

  •  Oppose In most countries, all paintings, sculpture, architecture, text, and other creative works have copyrights which last for 70 years after the death of the creator. An image of a work that is still under copyright is a derivative work, and infringes on the copyright so that we cannot usually keep the image on Commons. In some countries, there is a special exception to the copyright law which allows such images under certain circumstances. We call that exception freedom of panorama (FOP). Unfortunately there is no applicable FOP exception in Spain. The sculptor, Josep Maria Subirachs, died in 2014. Therefore his works will be under copyright until 2084 and this image cannot be kept on Commons without a free license from his heir. See OTRS for the procedure that the heir must follow. .     Jim . . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 12:32, 25 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Commons:Deletion requests/Files uploaded by ShustovVal

edit

Request temporary undeletion (Clarifying that this is for transfer to Wikiversity, not only for review for possible undeletion here, see fair use policy linked below. --Abd (talk) 00:06, 25 March 2015 (UTC))[reply]

request to Yann, as the closing admin, who declined. It is not necessary to review that request, linked for disclosure.

I request these files be temporarily undeleted, so that I may review them; there have been a series of arguments presented for deleting these files, and as one argument dropped, another was raised. There are two new arguments, which were not present in the DRs, that these were derivatives of youtube videos (in which case I may suggest to Shustov that he go through OTRS, these would all have been his youtube uploads), and that they were out of scope. Some of these files were in use and therefore not out of scope. However, because of multiple issues, I want to see the files and obtain all the data before proceeding with a formal undeletion review, should that be appropriate.

If they are undeleted, I will cooperate with an undeleting admin, as requested, to make this easy and efficient. Thanks. --Abd (talk) 22:09, 21 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

 Oppose These files have already been reviewed by several admins. Regards, Yann (talk) 22:22, 21 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Yann was the only administrator who decided to delete these files. Each file may have different circumstances, and I know that some of the arguments given for deletion were specious. Instead of creating a contentious undeletion request, I am only asking for temporary undeletion so that I can see what was actually in the files. I will appreciate support in this, because otherwise I will need to request undeletion with specific arguments, possibly file by file. I'm hoping to avoid unnecessary discussion. I would only request undeletion, then, later, for files where the issues are clear and the files are ready. As well, many Shustov (=ShustovVal) files were in use, some on Wikiversity. We may claim fair use there, if needed. Thanks. --Abd (talk) 03:04, 22 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

"Yann was the only administrator who decided to delete these files" is, strictly speaking, true, but only because it is true of all DRs that only one Admin makes the final decision.

Abd entirely ignores the fact that there was an extended discussion at the DR that included me, Elcobbola, and Russavia. INC has also been involved with Shustov's many problematic uploads. So, including Yann, five highly experienced Commons editors have agreed that these are not files that Commons can keep.

As I understand it, it is this kind of disingenuous and unhelpful behavior that got Abd permanently banned on WP:EN. We don't need similar behavior here and should not encourage it by any positive response to this request..     Jim . . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 13:48, 22 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I did not "ignore" the discussion, I linked to it. I've reviewed it in detail and am supporting the process of restoring what is legitimate about Shustov's files, with minimal disruption. This is not AN/U. The argument above is misleading: Russavia's argument was rejected (by Jim!), and the arguments in the DR closed by Yann were questionable; Yann closed "as per Jim and Эlcobbola" and it's a moving target; Yann refused to undelete because of completely different arguments, not raised in the DR.
I'm working on this set because the last DR was opened by Jim with ShustovVal is the subject of all of these images and therefore his claim of "own work" is clearly incorrect. These were bystander selfies, apparently, and it is controversial whether such are own work or not. See the current draft of Commons:Own work, permanent link, and see the legal arguments on the talk page for Commons:Own work/Bystander selfie. That's not resolved, but these files might be suitable as test cases. That undeletion request has not been made. They were in use on WMF wikis, so deleting them caused disruption. Was it necessary? I don't know yet, but the most that will be needed, I suspect, is OTRS, depending on youtube and file creation timing here. Those gears won't start turning until I know more about the photos and videos, specifically.
Shustov's claim (privately to me) is that, in some cases, he used a self-timer to start a video and had the bystander hold the camera (thus the visible movement of the camera), giving a plausible reason (I had questioned him incredulously). The draft policy would make it unnecessary to resolve this. Shustov did not understand Commons or Commons practice, it's obvious. He is, however, coachable. He stopped all disruptive activity.
I'm requesting copies of the files, following procedure, opposed by two admins who have already expressed their opinions before, and it's irrelevant here. This request has a legitimate purpose entirely aside from Commons image hosting, i.e., provision of files for fair use on en.Wikiversity, per instructions for this page. It's a routine request, easily satisfied, and not disruptive.
I neglected to include the temporary undeletion template, I had intended to do that (but I was clear about what this was). It is now at the top. Thanks. --Abd (talk) 15:46, 22 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Sigh. Thanks, Эlcobbola. I see that I also failed to follow instructions completely. See Commons:Undeletion requests#To allow transfer of fair use content to another_project. While I gave that reason, it was also with another reason, related to possible undeletion filing, which I wanted to postpone until I saw the files. I did not provide the link to Wikiversity fair use policy. Here it is: [11]. Without seeing the files, I cannot specifically determine if they are eligible, but they probably are, or could be made so. --Abd (talk) 18:02, 23 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

This is disgusting!

It seems to me that these prominent Holocaust photographs were deleted on extremely spurious grounds.

The USHMM says on its website that it owns the copyright. An OTRS ticket seems to have been deemed inadequate merely because it does not jive with some of the boilerplate on the USHMM site. Some (now ex-)admin, on evidence of their own POV, decided to delete the files anyway, implying that the USHMM must be lying. That reeks of antisemitism. AGF should apply to the USHMM. It's OK for admins to assume the USHMM is lying without clearly identified, specific evidence? Of course not. Am I missing something here? The USHMM site clearly indicates it claims ownership of the copyright. Who is this ex-admin to insist the USHMM is lying? Taking one bit of overly aggressive legal boilerplate out of context which redefines the term "Content"! and fail to note the redefinition or that it also says, "Some Content is in the public domain" is highly inappropriate too. What's common, and legally sound, is that we host lots and lots of content that is free despite overly aggressive legal boilerplate that claims otherwise. Like POTUS photos posted with non-commercial restrictions on flickr ("The photograph may not be manipulated in any way" means no derivatives - example). (Aside: Even this OTRS search is oddly blank. Why? [Edit: Answer: because of the miscoded # symbol. this OTRS search works. ] )

Due to the sensitive, political nature of the images, I feel the justification for any sustained deletion would need to be on much more solid ground than the original deletion in order not to give the impression that the deletion was politically motivated. It must AGF on behalf of the USHMM and be based on clearly identified, specific evidence. IMO. --Elvey (talk) 20:05, 24 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Oppose The accusation of antisemitism here is insulting. Commons, as a community, has never, to my knowledge, acted in such a way. The issues in this case are complex and it is not helpful to accuse us of racism. We are all volunteers trying to be fair and to apply complex law to difficult situations.
There are two problems with these images. The first is that the source site, http://www.ushmm.org/, has terms of use that are unacceptable here:
"The United States Holocaust Memorial Museum (“Museum”) invites its web visitors to use the content of its website for personal, educational, and other noncommercial purposes."
That was true when these images were uploaded and it is true today. There is an OTRS ticket #2007071910012533 which discusses a temporary intern uploading images to Commons with the consent of the museum. It does not, however, mention the username USHMM, so we have no way of being sure that these uploads by that user are in fact images that the Museum has decided should be freely licensed. The OTRS communications are from a junior person, one who does not have the apparent authority to freely license valuable content in conflict with the organization's stated licensing policy. The museum has been asked to confirm the license, and in fact, to change its web site to show the free licensing of these images, but it has not done so.
The second problem is that the museum probably does not own the copyright to these images. As it says on its website, much of the material on the site has copyrights owned by others. It is not at all clear that the person uploading these images from the web site understood the copyright issue. At least one of the images shown above has a "courtesy of" note in its source. That generally means that the image was given to the museum by the photographer for the museum's use but does not mean that the museum has the right to freely license it. Museums are notorious for not understanding copyright -- we have many examples of museums claiming copyrights which they obviously did not own. While I would accept a statement from an officer of the Museum that the Museum both owned the copyrights to these images and was willing to freely license them here, I see no reason to accept such a declaration from an anonymous username.
This deletion can easily be reversed if an officer of the Museum sends such a declaration to OTRS. Since it has not done so in the intervening five years, it is hard to conclude that it wants them restored. .     Jim . . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 10:16, 25 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Munchausen illustrations

edit

The files File:baron06a.gif, File:baron07a.gif, File:baron08a.gif, and File:baron17a.gif were deleted in 2008 for lack of licensing information. However, these files are engravings from the 1780s, scanned in from a public-domain book, so no copyright difficulties should exist. Indeed, Commons already hosts inferior re-etched copies of the first two engravings in question, scanned in from a different book: File:Bürger Münchhausen (1786) 50a.png and File:Bürger Münchhausen (1786) 56a.png, respectively.

Most of the engravings from this book are already on Commons, at Category:Baron Munchausen. There's no conceivable reason why these four files should be treated any differently than them.--Lemuellio (talk) 20:49, 25 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

This images was deleted by "no license since..." But this images was made under this [youtu.be/1XPnH_rF9ks?t=3m48s] circumstances, and it's away more noxious we simply delete than put some cc-by and a warning about the conditions that this images was taken and whys of this images received this licence. I know I know, but think about this particular case... I made tons of workshops, I saw the look when beginners tried to show their friends/relatives the work that they contribute, and it was deleted. -- RTA 08:19, 23 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

 Oppose The only entry by the uploader on the file description page of either of these images is "Author = Michael.Kleiman". There is no description, no category, no location, no source, and no license. Quite aside from the lack of a license, the images are useless because we don't know anything about them.

Nothing further is going to happen with these images unless Michael.Kleiman himself comes here and tells us what license to put on them.

File:Christen Gerhart.jpg

Please restore the following pages:

Reason: Christen Gerhart (the subject of the picture) herself e-mailed me the file, telling me that she owned it, then granting me the copyright for the file in an email dated Thu, Mar 26, 2015 at 10:42 PM, with the following statement:

"Yes, that's the correct time and date for the photo. Here's the authorization: I, Christen Gerhart, the owner and holder of the copyright to the attached image X.JPG, do hereby grant its copyright to Mark William Renton."

My Wikipedia username is mwr0; you can contact me there. Mwr0 (talk) 21:04, 28 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Mwr0: Such grants of permissions need to be forwarded to OTRS so they can be verified and archived, then the OTRS team member will request undeletion. See COM:OTRS for details. Revent (talk) 22:03, 28 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, unfortunately we get our fair share of bad guys here, people who will say anything to get an image on Commons, so we require that third party licenses be verified through OTRS. The actual copyright holder must send a freelicense to OTRS -- forwarded license are not generally accepted.
Words like "prejudiced" and "presumptuous" are not helpful. You claimed that this image was "own work". Now you say that the copyright belonged to Christen Gerhart and that she transferred it to you. That raises two questions -- why you said it was your own work, when apparently it is the work of an unnamed photographer and how it is that Christen Gerhart owns the copyright when it is obviously not her work either. .     Jim . . . .

File:The Scuzzies 1965-3.jpg

edit

Please.. I keep getting targeted for deletion, at least 3 times now, and I have pleaded my case AGAIN, less than 6 months ago … and believed all was resolved when I communicated with Andrzej Krzysztofowicz at Wiki Commons. Please read below:

Re: [Ticket#2014091710035479] Copyright Permission 2014-10-17 04:08 -

[Commons] You clearly stated that the photographs are from your collection. But we need to know whether you take the photographs yourself, or somebody else was the photographer. 

    Yours sincerely,
                            Andrzej Krzysztofowicz

My answer to the above question at that time was: All three of the photographs in question are from my family’s photo album and were taken by my mother back in 1965 with a Kodak black & white instant camera. I am the only person from our family that has these original photos, and I thought I did everything correctly and answered all questions to the best of my ability when releasing the photos to the public and uploading to Wiki Commons. I assumed everything was OK with the “Free” Licensing to the public. In any case, 2015 will be 50 years since the photos were taken. Aren’t they considered “Public Domain” by then?

[Commons] Moreover, the File:The Scuzzies 1965-1.jpg looks like a published folder. In this case we need information *when* it was published and a proof that it was published without copyright notice (that can be present on each page / side of this folder. Yours sincerely, Andrzej Krzysztofowicz


My answer to the above question at that time was: The File:”The Scuzzies 1965-1.jpg” is not a folder as it appears to you. It was intended to be a CD Cover for an album of songs recorded by the Scuzzies. In this case, I made this CD cover myself in 2008 using Photoshop and one of the photos my mother took with the black & white instant camera back in 1965. All the artwork is completely original, made by me. The music CD, which also contains the 3 photos in question, have been on sale, through me, to the public since 2008. The only proof I have that it was published without copyright notice is my word that I released the photos to the public when the first CD sold back in 2008.

[Commons] Acoording to our guide:https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Hirtle_chart unpublished photos become PD in US 120 years after they were taken or 70 years after the photograpger death. I am not a US copyright expert, however, so if you can prove your claim (50y) we are open to listen your arguing. However if they were taken by your mother who transferred the copyrights to you, or (if she died already) you are her the only heir, then you are the photos copyright holder and your permission can be accepted.

I also stated that I believe said photos are vital to, and go hand-in-hand with the text to assist in giving accurate details and information to the history of The Scuzzies musical group Wikipedia project page. The deleted photos have destroyed the quality of said project page.

So, again, I hereby affirm that I “Michael S. Cappetta” am the creator and/or sole owner of the exclusive copyright of The Scuzzies photos that were photographed in 1965 and were taken from my own collection. The three photos in question have been previously uploaded to Wikipedia Commons originally by Me, then were removed by Wikipedia Commons and also “Replaced by Wikipedia Commons” after I appealed my case in previous emails, proving said photos belonged to me and I am the sole creator & owner for use regarding information about The Scuzzies music group from 1965 .. and in the event that positive proof of identification was necessary at that time, I have previously attached a copy of my California Driver License.

The web URL for the Scuzzies Wikipedia project page is: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Scuzzies

The three URL’s to said photos on Wiki Commons are: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:The_Scuzzies_1965-1.jpg https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:The_Scuzzies_1965-2.jpg https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:The_Scuzzies_1965-3.jpg

Reiterating, I believe that said photos are vital to, and go hand-in-hand with the text to assist in giving accurate details and information to the history of The Scuzzies musical group Wikipedia project page. Therefore, deleting said photos would Only destroy the quality of said project page.

The user should read the rename notice carefully, and link his accounts. --Abd (talk) 22:35, 29 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Five photographs of bb Polos

The following file have been inadvertantly speedely deleted:

However, these files have been copied from a genuinely creative commons licenced Hungarian blog. In the right column, in the 14th box from the top it shows the CC BY 2.5 HU licence under the header "Licenc". Could you please check this and get the photographs re-installed? --NearEMPTiness (talk) 05:01, 30 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I don't understand why you would ask me about these on my talk and post here at the same time? I'll repeat the answer I gave there: These all have "Processed By eBay with ImageMagick, R1.0.1.M2b" in the EXIF, which is why they were deleted. Is that where the blog got them from?

That suggests that the blog is license laundering and, at a minimum, we should get a license from the actual copyright holder via OTRS. .     Jim . . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 14:55, 30 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Though taken from the web, it has been reworked accordingly to nullify any copyright claims. --Ruthurl (talk) 05:16, 30 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

"it has been reworked accordingly to nullify any copyright claims"
Well, it's 2% smaller and a PNG rather than a JPG. It's close enough so that Google images came up with it and at a glance I can't see any difference at all.
As a legal matter, if you take a copyrighted image and rework it, even if you rework it extensively, the result will be a derivative work -- that is almost the definition of DW. .     Jim . . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 15:02, 30 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

File:Bust of Alexander the Great, Walker Art Gallery.jpg

La autoria del trabajo es mía. Cierto es que la imagen de portada no está referenciada. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sendoo (talk • contribs)

1) This file has never been deleted, or even nominated for deletion. 2) Your only deleted contribution is a PDF deleted for scope issues, not copyright issues (although those are there too: the cover image would need evidence of a free license, as it is not the same image as File:Bust of Alexander the Great, Walker Art Gallery.jpg).

Agreed. I added {{Licensereview}} to the file description. .     Jim . . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 15:18, 30 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
