File:Cueillette des cerises.PNG[edit]

Duplicate of File:CUEILLETTE DES CERISES.JPG, but color distorted. Although it looks the same dull color as the one shown on Sotheby's website, check the source URL, it was actually generated by Sotheby's service provider, Brightspot. This is a compressed image intended to make website load faster, while the original image is found at

Commons:File types - "On Wikimedia Commons, the file types we recommend are: SVG, PNG, and JPEG.". png is lossless, and since is it is straight from the source, it is not distorted. "not the largest version" is not a rationale for deletion - see also Category:The Milkmaid by Johannes Vermeer. jpg uses “lossy compression”. but by all means, upload all the 2000 through 2022 sothebys artworks, then I won't have to do it. --Arnoseven (talk) 17:10, 3 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hi, Arnoseven, you are attacking a straw man. I did say png format is not good. The problem is that the file has a significant color "bias" - duller/less vibrant than the original in amazon S3. Actually, I have left a message at your talk page about how to grab the original picture and you can try it for yourself. 0x0a (talk) 18:34, 3 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
it is not a straw man to point out you do not have a valid deletion rationale. the broken png rendering is not my problem, see also https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T192744 . you cannot force people to upload jpg, by deleting png: all it will do is stop png uploads. --Arnoseven (talk) 21:22, 7 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Bogus licensing, PD-Italy is only valid if its made by an italian photographer. Secondary source provides none of the relevant info. Panini unlikely to be the creator of the source image Denniss (talk) 01:23, 3 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Denniss: Key word: Unlikely. The photographer is currently unknown and the original image was likely taken by an Italian photographer given that no results that weren't from the Panini card could be found through a reverse image search. The cards themselves were also first published in Italy so Italian copyright applies here. I also really don't appreciate the hounding nominations for at least several of my recent uploads now.

Bogus licensing, PD-Italy is only valid if its made by an italian photographer. Secondary source provides none of the relevant info. Panini does not make images, they license their use Denniss (talk) 01:24, 3 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sure they own the copyright of the card as a whole AKA card design. That does not make them the author of the base image, usually they just have usage rights and pay for usage rights to Fifa/Uefa/etc. Just like Fifa series games from Electronics Art - they own the copyright for the game but the player images are licensed from Fifa/Uefa/etc. --Denniss (talk) 14:11, 3 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Denniss: Sure, but many of the images are usually exclusively found within the cards themselves as for example, File:Gordon Banks en 1970.jpg this image of Gordon Banks isn't found anywhere except with his associated Panini card produced for the 1970 FIFA World Cup and it's likely that many photographers for the Panini cards are usually done in-house. This also doesn't dispute that these were first published in Italy and thus, Italian copyright laws apply if the original author is unknown.

it's unclear who's the copyright owner. it's also unclear whether this footage was "first published in china", so chinese copyright rules may not apply. https://www.britishpathe.com/video/VLVAA9ZQN9GEVOJ0WJOE65FYIVU3W-CHINA-DEFENCE-CHINA-FIGHTS-ON is the same clip, and they claim this is owned by reuters and british pathe?--RZuo (talk) 18:03, 26 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

04:00-04:30 = 30s . 05:30-06:00 = 30s . (30+30)/657 = 9.13% . The images taking up the whole screen lasting for 30s each are not "incidental inclusion". 9.13% is not de minimis. And these are only two of the obvious copyvios. Whole video is full of unsourced photos.

Probably false license. IMO no reason to apply PD-US. It's a Russian newspaper issue with lots of potentially unfree texts and images, including the Navalny image on the title page. For each image you need a permission by the respective copyright holder. A.Savin 22:16, 3 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • There'are no legal reason for deletion:
  1. The servers of Wikimedia Commons are located in the USA, so the US law is applicable in this case. According the US law, the news are not subject matter of the copyright laws in the USA.
  2. According the paragraph 4 of the part 6 of the article 1259 of the Russian Civil Code, a reportings of events and facts of a purely informative nature are not subject of copyright. As for photographies, it should be taken into account, that according the part 1 of the article 1274 of the Russian Civil Code, for informational, scientific, educational and cultural purposes, it is admitted to use the legally published works and excerpts from them to the extent justified by the purpose of citation - without the consent of author or another legal owner, and without the payment, but with an obligatory indication of the name of the author. This rule applies including to photographies in newspapers. All rights to the photography of Navalny belong to the photographer, who has done this photography, or to the employer of this photographer, if he had done this photography in the exercise of his labor duties. The holder of the rights to the photography is indicated near the photography - you can prove it to yourself by taking a look on the relevant page of the newspaper. Thus, in this case, the Russian law is not violated too. K8M8S8 (talk)
    Sorry, but a permission "for informational, scientific, educational and cultural purposes" is not enough for Commons. --A.Savin 23:39, 7 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    The law makes no exceptions for Wikimedia Commons or someone else. From the moment when the holder of the rights has published the photography, anyone, including the Wikimedia, can use this photography for aforementioned purposes. K8M8S8 (talk)
    Please read policies. Not the law is the more restrictive part, but the Commons' policy. Sorry --A.Savin 19:51, 8 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    According the Wikimedia Commons policy, media are accepted if they are in the public domain in at least the United States and in the source country of the work. The photography of Navalny, which is used on the first page of the issue, is marked "Photo: RIA Novosti". According the RIA Novosti policies (you can read it on their website), thise mark is used by printed media, when they use the provisions of the current legislation [Russian legislation] allowing the free use of content [highlighted by me] (point 2.3.1. of the their copyright policy). Thus, this photography is in public domain by the decision of its owner (RIA Novosti), and the newspaper Sobesednik had used this photography on the free license ground, when they published this issue; the issue by itself is not the subject matter of the copyright law, because it is a news material. Are there any other questions? K8M8S8 (talk)
    Yes the question is, how do you come to all this nonsense. It's been very long time since RIA Novosti had donated some of their content to Commons as freely licensed, and none of their content is or ever was PD, as far as I know. BTW, please sign your posts properly. --A.Savin 22:18, 11 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Watch your mouth, you! Who are you to talk with me like that? Why did you even think that you could have any discussions with me? Are you copyright lawyer or maybe think that I have no other tasks than to cast pearls before swine? I don't care about, who, what and where has loaded up. The status of the work in public domain doesn't depend on the fact of its loading into Wikimedia Commons, but the contrary - such status is a necessary condition for such loading. In this case, the newspaper has used the aforementioned photography in the issue and marked the photography by a label of a work in a public domain according the cited above rules of its holder. The newspaper's issue but itself is not the suject of copyright law. Do you have any information about holder's legal claims against the newspaper in relation to this photography? No? Thus, until proven otherwise, it should be considered that the photography is in public domain. The matter is closed. And keep your 5 kopecks to yourself. K8M8S8 (talk)

File:Fusajiro Yamauchi.png[edit]

Upon closer examination, there are significant discrepancies regarding the identity of the individual depicted in the image, as well as concerns about the accuracy of the information provided by the uploader.

The image is purportedly of en:Fusajiro Yamauchi, the founder of Nintendo, who would have been approximately 80 years old around 1940. However, the person in the image appears far younger than this age, leading to doubts about the image's authenticity in representing Fusajiro Yamauchi.

The original listed source of the image is a Brazilian website, where the photograph was not dated. Contrarily, the uploader has arbitrarily dated it to "circa 1940" without providing any verifiable source or rationale for this specific timeframe. This discrepancy raises questions about the reliability of the information accompanying the image.

The individual in the photograph might actually be en:Hiroshi Yamauchi, a subsequent president of Nintendo, rather than Fusajiro Yamauchi. Unfortunately, there seems to be a lack of available photographs or portraits of Fusajiro Yamauchi for a direct comparison, further complicating the verification process. The apparent age of the individual in the photograph aligns more closely with Hiroshi Yamauchi than with Fusajiro Yamauchi in 1940. Comparing with the File:Hiroshi Yamauchi, Nintendo president.jpg photo of Hiroshi, this might be well the case, considering the quirky brows. However, because there's no verifable date of the photo, we might not be able to use the `PD-Japan-oldphoto` template too.

Not even close to be 80 years old, though. His grand-grandson Hiroshi Yamauchi at the same age was fully grey-haired and wrinkled. Sleeps-Darkly (talk) 01:02, 4 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]


  • Comment. It seems like the author of the Nintendo Blast article is still active on the Internet (see https://twitter.com/jaimeninice ). Anyone want to volunteer to message him and just ask where exactly the picture came from and what its provenance is? (Note that Yamauchi died in 1940 so I suspect the uploader meant "at the latest, 1940", so Yamauchi appearing not as old as expected is not necessarily a huge problem if the picture is really from 1930 or something.) SnowFire (talk) 05:47, 4 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    I'm suspecting that the article isn't the earliest example of that, because the similar image that is uploaded at https://nintendo.fandom.com/wiki/History_of_Nintendo was uploaded earlier than the article; the article is July 2014, while that upload is March 2014. Like the whole mess is from something else. So in my own opition the mentioned nintendoblast article isn't the original source, so isn't even really relevant. - Sleeps-Darkly (talk) 18:59, 4 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment. Are we sure this image was taken in 1940 ? I am working on Fusajiro Yamauchi article and I believe he may have died in 1929 and not in 1940. Finding the exact date and source of this picture would be a nice event. - DanganMachin (talk) 21:12, 16 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Personally, I think this simplified version should not exits at all. I regard it as of a very limited illustrative value (if any) and potential irresponsibility of its reusers to mark it as (or even learn about it being) unofficial and Commons-invented might result in spread of a false information that this is the real logo.

File:Carrie Crowley at DIFF 2024.jpg[edit]

This is NOT A PICTURE CARRIE CROWLEY Youdepiela (talk) 13:39, 4 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I can't say, for sure. User:James Kevin McMahon uploaded it from a video of DIFF day 1. I watched the video and she's in it, but there's no narration identifying her as Carrie Crowley. I reviewed older images of Carrie Crowley from the web, the most recent being from 2023. All the web images (including the 2023 one) show her as slimmer, but (within the limits of the resolution) the subject of this 2024 picture seems to have similar hair and facial features to the woman in the older pictures. She's 59 now and maybe she's put on a few pounds. But I'm still not sure. -- WikiPedant (talk) 18:43, 4 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Risk of copyright violation.

The same image was published in the UK magazine Melody Maker a few weeks earlier than the date in this file.[5] . The image was used in several European record covers in the same year.[6] As Mary Hopkin was a UK singer it is unclear that this would have been first published in the US.

 Keep We usually assume that old documents were published at the time of creation. At that time, a picture leaving the photographer's custody constituted publication. Pre-1936 French pictures should be OK with {{PD-France}} + {{PD-1996}}. Yann (talk) 10:22, 5 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Comment We have no reason to assume the work was published anonymously, i.e. the author decided to hide their dentity. It is either a work for which the uploader ignores the identity of the author, which does not mean the author is anonymous, or a work for which sufficient but unsuccessful diligence to find the author can be proven, i.e. an orphan work which nevertheless cannot be considered to be PD in France and PD-France is therefore not applicable. — Racconish💬 12:26, 5 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
 Keep per Yann. "anonymous" and "unknown" and using a pseudonym have the same legal ramifications in the EU and in the USA. However I believe a VRT has been filed where a family member is claiming that another deceased family member took the images and he is the heir to the copyrights. --RAN (talk) 14:19, 5 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
 Comment Anonymous (or pseudonymous) and orphan are not the same in French copyright law. Cf. CPI art 113-10 of French copyright law [7]. In practical terms, the orphan work is protected but can be used under some conditions, in particular, only for cultural, educative or research purposes and not for profit which is not compatible with Commons licenses. — Racconish💬 14:41, 5 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comment The date of 1951 you are using is when the CoA was recognised by the College of Arms, the design itself is much older and was used prior to Napier's proclamation as a city in 1950. Kiwichris (talk) 01:51, 15 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
isnt this drawing of the CoA by the college of arms for the city of napier though? like presumably that was done in 1951 (i think date it was published would be relevant which is def 1951). different depictions of a coat of arms based on the same blazon have separate copyright. TheLoyalOrder (talk) 02:06, 15 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The CoA was designed locally and, eventually, approved by the College of Arms in 1951. Successive councils declined to approve funding to pay the College of Arms to legally recognise the city's heraldry. The issue was finally resolved in 1950 when the mayor, Bill Hercock, paid the College of Arms fee out of his own money thus ending the saga. An interesting story actually. Kiwichris (talk) 03:32, 15 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Is there a source for this? Would be interested in reading more. TheLoyalOrder (talk) 03:53, 15 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
From memory I recall reading it in the book Story of Napier, 1874-1974 Footprints Along the Shore. There is a digitised article here which says that actually it wasn't the mayor but a Mr. Wilkie who was the one who paid the legal costs to for official recognition. Kiwichris (talk) 06:46, 15 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Kia ora, here implies that there wasn't already a coat of arms. I'll try to read that book you mentioned tomorrow. TheLoyalOrder (talk) 07:41, 15 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Possibly, or it could be they were wanting a completely new one rather than keep using an existing one. A bit vague. Kiwichris (talk) 00:41, 16 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Ok, I went and skim read that book. There's actually a photo of the Napier Borough Council building with a clearly different CoA on it in the book. Otherwise it talks about the design of the current CoA as new, and that there was a poll for the motto so this rendition with the motto has to be new. TheLoyalOrder (talk) 03:30, 16 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
If you are referring to the picture on page 58, that is the CoA of the Hawke's Bay Provincial Government who built the building. The building was later used by the council. Kiwichris (talk) 02:04, 19 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Files in Category:Parviz Tanavoli[edit]

Artwork by living artist, needs permission from artist via COM:VRT.

P 1 9 9   23:35, 6 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

 KeepThe deletion reason is totally nonsense. If that's the case, all pictures of works of living artists should get deleted!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Also, it seems photos with "Nothing by parviz tanavoli photo by pouria afkhami" name are taken in a public place and they are public art and don't need a permission.
Specifically, Parviz Tanavoli.jpg has a confirmation email from the creator of the work. But P 1 9 9 has nominated it for deletion.
Do you think when an artist sits next to his work and takes a photo, he doesn't know and doesn't give a permission for his work to be published? Shkuru Afshar (talk) 10:30, 7 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep all, though not for reasons given above (works of art by living artists are copyright and therefore not generally eligible for Commons, even if publicly accessible). However these are all 3D works in Canada and the UK, where FOP applies for 3D works (COM:FOP Canada and COM:FOP UK), and as far as I can see the photographer of these works has released the image as cc-by-sa.

File:Gaziantep Zeugma museum Sulumagara mosaic sept 2019 4179.jpg[edit]

Out of COM:SCOPE as pure text, and/or a copyvio of a museum's text description. Belbury (talk) 13:03, 7 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I think a “and/or" motivation is a weak one. The nominator wants the file gone, but does not know if either of his two reasons is valid, so he lets others chose. A shotgun approach, fitting a lord.
I start with the museum’s aspect. I have been praised for my pictures in a letter written by the “Genel Müdür” (General director) of the Ministry for Culture and Tourism about twenty years ago. That was after some pictures by me appeared in a book (Die andere Türkei) with a foreword by President Erdoğan (and one by the German Chancellor Schröder). So my activities are without a doubt well known by the Turkish authorities. They never complained about my representations of museums. I do not think any Turkish museum would claim copyright for the many notices they use to inform visitors. So I think a “copyvio” is not an issue for anyone except for Belbury.
As for text: I claim this is a case of what is mentioned as “scanned copies of existing texts that are useful to other WMF projects (e.g. to serve as the basis of a reliable, verifiable source) are in scope.” What I mean is: deleting a picture like this (and you can find hundreds, probably thousands, of them by many other users) would force the uploaders to transcribe the same text to a word-file, then add it to relevant pictures. A waste of time.
I leave it at that. My commiserations with the loss of his lordship’s title. Dosseman (talk) 11:56, 22 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Not sure why you're making strange jokes about me dropping the "Lord" prefix from my username a couple of years ago. Do we have some history I'm unaware of, that is relevant here?
I'll strike the "or" from my request if that helps. This is pure text where the copyright belongs to the museum. It's nice that a museum director liked your photography twenty years ago, but we can't assume that they continue to monitor and tacitly approve of each of your Commons uploads.
I would expect a museum to object if somebody were to collect the text from all of their displays and publish it as a book under their own name. I don't see any exceptions to that at Commons:Copyright rules by territory/Turkey. There are other ways to use these photographs for verifiability discussions on Wikipedia projects without releasing their text under a CC-BY licence. --Belbury (talk) 12:25, 22 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
We indeed have no history. The count and baron I knew never used their title, almost none of the many academics I know use their title (and neither do I), so using a title in Commons was a bit over the top to me.
I would like to make it clear that the letter was not by some museum director but by the top dog of the ministry. I am known for a private website and been in touch with hundreds of authors from all over the world, just added the 129th publication to a list of books that used my work. The site has been mentioned in four articles in Turkish national newspapers, has seen 137076259 pictures views, I got 1003 private messages and 14079 comments. Only during the last years I publish my pictures on commons, most people know me from my site. I often receive mail from authors from major universities or publishers. Is Harvard, Princeton, Cambridge, Oxford, Libreria Vaticana and many more or BBC, Penguin, Brill good enough for you? My work was used by Louvre, British museum and others for exhibitions. My correspondents often complain they have tried to contact some Turkey museum with a request for pictures or otherwise and never received an answer. As for myself, I have left my calling cards at many museums or sights, have spoken with the director of Topkapı, the curators of the Ankara Museum and some others. I recently was interviewed by Anadolu Agency, the national news agency. In October I was guest speaker at the Turkic Wikimedia Conference 2023 in Istanbul, where I received applause for a speech about my pictures and about how to present a country well.
So I stick to my guns. Your supposition “I would expect a museum to object if somebody were to collect the text from all of their displays and publish it as a book under their own name.” is wrong, it is not I who writes books, but major authors. I can assure you they don’t need a text like to one you complain about. And no museum ever complained. Dosseman (talk) 13:06, 22 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

For completeness, I'll flag up these other photographs of lengthy text descriptions taken from the same museum:

File:"Never Forget" tapestry at 911 Memorial in NYC IMG 5792.JPG
Category:Olympic Gateway (sculpture)
I appreciate the work you are doing to keep Wikipedia free from violations.
But please do better than others that go after violations. Too many editors hold contributions from "US Fly-over-county" to a high standards but then turn a blind eye to violations from coastal areas. Why? maybe because most US editors are from coastal areas, or because they are worried about push back from areas with high concentration of editors over local content. Please do not be biased in your deletions. Myotus (talk) 13:08, 14 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The photographs of the Olympic Gateway look like copyright violations. You could nominate them for deletion, preferably using a mass deletion request, or I might get around to this myself. The photo of the tapestry might be allowed under the threshold of originality and deminimis rules, see COM:TOO and COM:DM. This is because the lettering, the bird symbols and the US flag are probably public domain and the faces are very small. However, I am dubious that this argument would stand up, and you could nominate the file for deletion.
Regarding the geographical issue, I have not been aware of this concern, although I am British and live in England. Commons editors are probably not evenly distributed in the US, and I suspect that they are more concentrated in the coastal areas and that this might lead to systemic bias. However, I would expect more checking of outdoor photos in areas where there are more editors, who would see the things in their daily life. I occasionally suspect a political bias in deletion nominations, where editors can target files for political motives. Potentially there might be an effect of editors in 'blue states' targeting files in 'red states' but I have not seen any evidence of this. I assure you that I did not select this file based on its location or my politics. However, I sometimes check files in related categories which could result in a burst of deletions of files in Category:Minnesota State Capitol artwork, but you should not see this as inappropriate. I encourage you to become more active here, and you would be particularly welcome if you helped increase the diversity of editors. Verbcatcher (talk) 21:26, 14 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I do many things on Wikipedia, I create and edit articles, add photos, create and add maps and artwork, I even run Wikipedia Edit-a-thons here in Minnesota but I do not regularly nominate files for deletion. That is a skill set that I appreciate that others have and why I have suggested them for you. BTW, I agree with you the "Never Forget" tapestry may be problematic but this sculpture is not, Category:Fire Department of New York Memorial Wall.
You are correct in your assumption of systemic bias against non-urban areas and those areas without intensive media coverage. Wikipedia policies support and encourage institutionalized urban bias in both media and articles but Wikipedia has yet to even acknowledge the issue. New York is an echo chamber of news with 12 percent of all U.S. newsroom employees—reporters, editors, and photographers, living in New York City. This includes London's "The Guardian" which has several correspondents based New York City. There may be more people their to monitor for violations in both media and articles but from what I have experienced it also means more people to defend and attack bad submissions, as Wikipedia too often becomes a game of who can monitor and battle it out the longest.
What I am seeing is less due to "Red State" "Blue State" politics but more because of people focusing on deleting files and articles on areas of the United States that will not offer much resistance so they can get easy wins/deletes (one of my pet peeves are Wikipedians that like to post their editing stats on their user pages).
I won't challenge on the deletion of Nellie Stone Johnson statue - (BTW, the copyright is owned by the State of Minnesota - not the artist), however, I do strongly encourage people who nominate files for deletion regularly do start taking on the task of nominating files for deletion that violate copyright from the coastal areas as well as "flyover country".

The only criteria to deny building designers' copyrights as per COM:FOP France are: purely functional buildings meant for series like housing developments, random use of lines and styles, use of technical knowledge instead of aesthetic knowledge, and building types that are commonly found throughout the country. w:fr:Tour CB21 is a well-designed building and it is not a simple box-type work, as you can see in the local image at French Wikipedia (local images of buildings exist on that wiki, and with warning tags not to transfer those here). It is certain Harrison & Abramovitz will win and the commercial postcard maker or website developer will lose should a copyright case be filed in French courts.

Commons:Hirtle chart according to this - "Works First Published Outside the U.S. by citizens of foreign nations - 1929 through 1977 - Solely published abroad, without compliance with US formalities or republication in the US, and not in the public domain in its home country as of URAA date - Copyright term = 95 years after publication date" TheLoyalOrder (talk) 21:00, 8 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
OK, as you mentioned USA, I thought it is a US work. But your calculation is still wrong. And then Commons:Copyright rules by territory/New Zealand matters. Copyright of the picture expired in New Zealand in 1998. And what's the copyright of the model made by Chaplin, Sidney George 1905 - 1990? {{FoP-New Zealand}} may apply.

 Keep The EU council clearly does not own the copyright on Irish (nor any other) passports. If at all, that copyright would belong to the Irish government. PaterMcFly (talk) 11:52, 8 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. While I understand the point about the European Council, potentially, not holding the underlying copyright for all the identity and travel docs published on its Public Register of Authentic identity and travel Documents Online (database), how would that (automatically) make it Commons-eligible? If the copyright is owned by the Irish government, where is the evidence that the Irish government's rights/terms are Commons-compatible? On EN Wikipedia, the uploader of this similar image believed that only "non-free fair use" could apply. And other previous deletion discussions (on images of Irish passports on Commons) were that they should be deleted (on copyright grounds). Is it not a leap from "European Council copyright terms don't apply" to "No(?) restrictive copyright terms apply"? Guliolopez (talk) 16:07, 8 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
That is true and may apply here as well. I don't know the details about Irish government documents (and the previous DRs don't really answer that, either), but it could be PD-Ineligible for a number of reasons (e.g to simple, because it's an official document, etc.). My statement was merely about the fact that the copyright terms of the EC are irrelevant in this case, as they're not the owner of the copyright and cannot specify any terms for the usage of this picture. PaterMcFly (talk) 20:24, 10 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Also fine. But the uploader's basis (for uploading the image here) was that the images were believed PD-eligible precisely BECAUSE they were available on the Commission/Council's website. If the copyright terms of that website are irrelevant, then they can't be a basis for retention either. (IE: If the basis for the PD claim is irrelevant/invalid, then surely it's safer/better to start from a default basis that it's NOT PD-eligible. Rather than starting from a basis that it could/might be...) Guliolopez (talk) 16:27, 11 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Guten Tag Herr Acker,

vielen Dank für Ihr Interesse an der Fotografie von Max Elsas. Bedauerlicherweise konnten wir bisher nicht die mit diesem Foto verbundenen Urheberrechte klären. Zwar befindet sich dieses Passfoto als Bestandteil eines Kennkartenantrages im Stadtarchiv, wir wissen jedoch nicht, wer der Fotograf war. Somit können wir nicht berechnen, ab wann das Foto gemeinfrei ist. Die bisherigen Veröffentlichungen fanden unter der Auflage statt, dass der Nutzer selbst überprüft, inwieweit Urheberechte durch die Veröffentlichung tangiert werden.
Ich bedauere, Ihnen keine zufriedenstellendere Antwort geben zu können.

Freundliche Grüße
Simon Karzel

Betreff: Foto von Max Elsas

Hallo,

im Rahmen eines Kompaktseminars haben sich Studenten der PH Ludwigsburg in Kooperation mit dem PKC Freudental und Stuttgarter Wikipedianern letzte Woche mit jüdischem Leben und jüdischen Spuren in Ludwigsburg beschäftigt. Unter anderem mit der Biografie von Max Elsas.

Hierzu meine Frage/Bitte: Ist es möglich, das veröffentlichte (Pass-?)Foto von Max Elsas gemeinfrei im Online-Bildarchiv des Stadtarchivs Lbg. zur Verfügung zu stellen? Analog der Datei S23_005223-002.jpg für Dr. Walter Pintus: https://ludwigsburg.fotoware.cloud/fotoweb/archives/5002-Bildarchiv/Folder%2016/S23_005223-002.jpg.info

Das Elsas-Foto ist in Joachim Hahn (1998) "Jüdisches Leben in Ludwigsburg", S. 378 abgedruckt und auf S. 558 in Fußnote 259 mit dem Bildnachweis "StadtA LB L32 Bü. 86 (Kennkartenanträge 1938 ...)" versehen. Offensichtlich wurde das Foto zudem z.B. bei der Opferbiografie auf den Seiten der Stolperstein-Initiative Ludwigsburg in einer Fotomontage verwendet: https://stolpersteine-ludwigsburg.de/max-elsas/

Hintergrund: In der Bilddatenbank "commons" der Wikimedia-Projekte (wozu auch die deutschsprachige Wikipedia gehört) können nur solche Fotos hochgeladen werden und dauerhaft verbleiben, die unter einer freien Lizenz wie z.B. CC-BY-SA 4.0 zur Verfügung stehen. Ein Portrait-Foto von Max Elsas könnte in mehreren Wikipedia-Artikeln sinnvoll zur Bebilderung verwendet werden. Mit der Bitte um wohlwollende Prüfung – Danke.

Freundliche Grüße

"It's just an extremely unsharp masked image; none of this is "real" information".....This is an "extremely 'unsharp', arrogant, ignorant, prejudiced, premature, agenda driven, unthoughtful, tunnel visioned statement". @Omphalographer The author of this image requests further `evidence` to back the above statement up by actually performing unsharp mask filter on this very publicly available image or withdraw the statement by acknowledging the mistake. Wikipedia is supposed be a free and open place for expansion of human knowledge and new discoveries. Debates are welcome but prejudices are not. Serious people should read this paper on how hidden features are revealed without introducing (or negligibly small) artifacts. The author of the image would eventually publish it (or similar images) on a high quality peer-reviewed journal like the one below.
https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-023-47053-4
Since peer review is very time consuming and expensive process this wikipedia contribution was made with the intention of expanding our knowledge. Also @Omphalographer is requested to to have a look at the simulation results and the above image curated from raw data published by EHT team.

File:Seal of the Iraqi Air Force.svg[edit]

Copyright infringement. Original source https://www.airliners.net/photo/Iraq-Air-Force/Antonov-An-32B/1886029/L clearly says "This photo is copyright protected and may not be used in any way without proper permission." Buckshot06 (talk) 23:45, 8 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Even if the photos are somehow judged not to have copyright status, there is no Public Domain status for government symbols in Iraq, and the Iraqi MOD site displays copyright symbols prominently.
The individual objects that appear within the photos - the Air Force symbols - are infringing Iraqi Ministry of Defence copyright.
What we would need is a specific photo which was released free of copyright, not drawings based on copyright photos (amended).

Buckshot06 (talk) 21:23, 9 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

 Keep @Fry1989; @FOX 52; @NorthTension. The script relating to copyright refers to the individual photographs ("This photo...") as a whole published on the site and not to what appears within them. The logos which are in svg format (and not extrapolated from the original) are in the public domain (due to their widespread diffusion) as are the flags of the various countries that appear in the various photographs (Iraq, Ukraine, Germany, United States, etc...) which otherwise should also be deleted from Wikipedia Commons. It is the photographs in their entirety that must not be published without permission of the relevant author, but the individual objects that appear in them can be reproduced in svg format. Should we perhaps delete not only the roundels and the flags but also all the military aircraft present on Wikipedia Commons, if they are of the same type or model as those in the photographs used as examples? It is always advisable to know how to interpret the warnings relating to copyright in a non-extensive way and above all without getting caught up in paranoia. FDRMRZUSA 9 March 2024.

Looking at it again (I'm not the original uploader), I suspect it could well be and maybe gave it too much of the benefit of the doubt last time.
I can't find any definitive evidence that this is the case, but the suspiciously low dimensions are a very common red flag with copyvios (anyone inclined to put that much effort into setting up an image would be unlikely to waste it on such crappy resolution).
OTOH, it could be a museum setup and (ironically) it's harder to judge that from such low resolution. So questionable whether evidence warrants PCP or not. Ubcule (talk) 13:29, 9 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Files from Forgemind ArchiMedia Flickr stream[edit]

All files from Forgemind ArchiMedia Flickr stream should be deleted. There are currently 455 files credited to them, and I have encountered many many more which are not in the category. Too many to list, sorry, is there an automated way to do this?

I would simply draw attention to this gallery of the User's; a compilation of photos from a 2011 architecture conference in Taiwan - none of the images appear to be Forgemind's own work and all are CC-BY-2.0. Every file I looked at, a few dozen so far, has been problematic - from using Boeri's own photo here to using Sousa's own sketch here.

I would also say that any user who was involved in uploading such blatant copyvio work, and all users who went on to add them to various Wikipedia projects, should probably be a bit more careful in the future. --mr.choppers (talk)-en- 03:22, 4 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Keep I don't see any indication of license landuring. MTur Destinos seems to be a reliable Flickr user. --A1Cafel (talk) 12:07, 17 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • I didn't check all, but at least for most of the "Flavioandre..." and "Flavio Andre...", Metadata says Com autorização de uso pelo criador ao MTUr e associados descritos na autorização. This at least seems incompatible with the license MTur provided to Flickr. -- Gauss (talk) 01:04, 29 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Kept: Files are from the official Flickr account of MTur, which seems to have an agreement with the creators. I don't know what means the information on the exif of the files by Flavio Andre, it could well mean that he authorized MTur to use them as they please, including relicensing - that would be on the contract they signed or otherwise agreed with MTur. In any case, that's MTur responsibility. -- Darwin Ahoy! 22:26, 6 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Per Commons:Copyright rules by territory/Angola the copyright term in Angola is either Life + 45 years after the photographers death or + 70 years after the date of publication in cases of anonymous photographs. In the case of these images specifically, although they were uploaded to Flickr under a CC BY-SA 2.0 license they were taken by an unknown photographer and there's zero evidence that the uploader owns the copyright to them or can release them in the public domain. So the images should be deleted until at least 2085 per the normal term for anonymous works in Angola since they appear to have been taken in 2014. If not until an undetermined date to the unclear years of creation.

3rd deletion request – part III

Sintegrity (talk) 14:51, 9 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@RodRabelo7: I think you added the comment to the wrong DR since most, if not all, of these images are from the account of someone named PaulBlake1957, who clearly uploads "found photographs" that they didn't take themselves. Regardless, to answer your question, no one said it isn't the official Flickr Account of SIM USA. I certainly didn't. The question here is if SIM USA owns the copyright to the images uploaded to their Flickr account or not, and I'm of the opinion that they don't. Especially since of their admittance the photographs are either taken by an unknown photographer or a missionary named Jessica Wadsworth. They clearly aren't Jessica Wadsworth and there's a difference between them having photographs taken by her versus owning the copyright to said photographs. Otherwise we would need evidence of the later, which I don't see us having. Otherwise be my guest and provide some. Just playing devils advocate doesn't cut it though. Especially with the photographs from PaulBlake1957's account. Since again, they clearly upload found photographs that they haven't taken themselves and therefore don't own the copyright to. --Adamant1 (talk) 09:49, 10 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
SIM USA is a missionary work organization. It is more than reasonable that they have permission to upload photographs from their missionaries. Your opinion, if not corroborated by facts, is needless and disposable. Otherwise you’d need evidence of the later, which I don’t see us having – have you tried contacting them instead of letting yourself get carried away by your usual deletionist instincts? Don’t worry, I have already done so on their website and soon we will have a response.
In regards to PaulBlake1957’s uploaded photographs, please mark them as such, because I am not going to check all of nominated photographs, one by one, since you have mixed photographs from two different account, one of them being totally legitimate. RodRabelo7 (talk) 10:07, 10 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Adamant1 (pinging). By the way, does someone oppose removing all the needless almost 400,000 bytes from previous nominations? I can barely edit here. RodRabelo7 (talk) 10:08, 10 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@RodRabelo7: As far as I know all the images that I nominated for deletion in the original request are from SIMUSA. Sintegrity then nominated the other images for deletion in separate DRs. Including this one. So I'm not really sure what your talking about or how it's my problem. The same goes for your insult about my "usual deletionist instincts" or whatever. Since again, I didn't start this DR, Sintegrity did of their own accord after messaging me on my talk page about it and I'm obviously not responsible for their actions. You might not know this for whatever reason, but it's possible to create and vote on separate DRs started by different people having to do with the same uploader.
More to the point, it might be "reasonable" that they have permission to upload photographs from their missionaries, and I disagree that it is, but that doesn't mean they have the permission. Or again, be my guest and provide evidence that they do. I find it hard to believe they would own the copyright to photographs they themselves say are by unknown photographers, that were taken at unknown dates, and are of unknown people. It would be pretty trivial for them to posses random photographs people took while doing missionary work under their remit. Again though, that doesn't mean they would own the copyright to said images. Although I'm more then willing to put my DR on hold for now while we wait to hear back from them about it. But there's no reason not to delete the other images nominated by Sintegrity in the meantime. Especially since they are requesting it themselves. --Adamant1 (talk) 10:32, 10 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
This DR page is a mess. Consider writing notes on the side of the file names. Which photographs are credit to unknown photographers? Which were uploaded by Paul Blake? RodRabelo7 (talk) 10:55, 10 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Again, it's multiple DRs. The photographs in this one are from to PaulBlake1957's Flickr account and are probably "found photographs" by other people. The ones in the original DR are from SIMUSA and were again taken by unknown photographers. Essentially every image not specifically credited to Jessica Wadsworth in the file name is by an unknown person. It doesn't help that you needlessly collapsed everything though. To the point that it's a mess that's only because you turned it into one. --Adamant1 (talk) 11:08, 10 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Comment In regards to this last DR, opened by Sintegrity, it should be noted that Paul Blake apparently uploads photographs taken by his parents, by himself, and by others, some of the latter likely being already in the public domain while others maybe not. I’d suggest closing this DR because we are not going anywhere with that many files to assess. RodRabelo7 (talk) 11:20, 10 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Or we could just delete the images since the uploader requested it within the 7 day curtesy window and there's no way to determine which were taken by whom or are in the public domain anyway. We usually respect deletion requests by the uploader within 7 days of them uploading the images anyway though. Otherwise it's just wasting everyone's time nominating the images in smaller batches when they are probably just going to be deleted anyway. --Adamant1 (talk) 11:51, 10 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Sintegrity nominated them to deletion not because she wanted to remove them from their upload history, but rather because she thought there were copyright issues to them. Anyway, she could simply add {{SD|G7}} to the files. Let’s see what she thinks. RodRabelo7 (talk) 12:30, 10 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hi, @RodRabelo7 and @Adamant1. Sorry for all this work and worry besause of a batch. I think these images are important to ilustrate not only the missionary mission, but also (and more important) people from that region of Angola. But if they are not appropriated within the PD rules, I guess we should delete them. Just let me know what I should do. Sintegrity (talk) 16:18, 10 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
RodRabelo7 can try and make an issue out of it, but at least with this DR the images clearly have copyright issues since of their own admission PaulBlake1957 uploads found photographs to their Flickr account sometimes and it's clear which ones he took or not. The other DRs aren't any better either and RodRabelo7's provided absolutely nothing to contradict that. So the DR should just stay open until a administrator deals with them and hopefully deletes the images. There's no reason to not delete the photographs though. --Adamant1 (talk) 17:02, 10 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I am really, really sorry that it sought out to you as bad faith and it wasn't my intention. I tried to emphasize that the quality of the vector that is uploaded makes it out of scope. I think I should have approached you on the talk page instead of the immediate deletion request. Really sorry again. Just a thought, considering efficiency, was the new vector truly needed? Perhaps, alternatively, cropping the file you linked in the reply could have sufficed. Your consideration of this suggestion is greatly appreciated.Contributers2020Talk to me here! 19:11, 9 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The vector was made as part of a suite of all the Serabit El-Khadim symbols. Just cropping the sketch it was based on would leave a white background and wouldn't look polished.
