File:Temppeliaukion kirkon kastemalja.jpg[edit]

There is no commercial Freedom of Panorama in Finland for copyrighted non-architectural works. The author of this 1969 bronze baptismal font, sculptor w:fi:Kauko Moisio, died in 2007, so the work is still under his posthumous copyright. Image is intentional to the work as the main subject. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 00:04, 30 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Keep. Moisio was a blacksmith, so the rough-hewn rocks are likely just rough-hewn rocks, making his sole contribution the pentagonal bronze dish. Per COM:TOO Finland, simple shapes are below the threshold of originality. I believe that is the case here. IronGargoyle (talk) 00:14, 2 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]


Files found with Special:Search/Merenneito[edit]

There is no commercial Freedom of Panorama in Finland for copyrighted public art. Merenneito dates to 1941 and was authored by sculptor w:fi:Viktor Jansson (died 1958). Even if it falls out of copyright in Finland sooner, it will still not be welcome on Wikimedia Commons until the U.S. copyright (courtesy of COM:URAA) expires. URAA can be ignored, if only Finland had complete commercial FoP (see Template:Not-free-US-FOP).

Module:No globals[edit]

The module is not used anymore mw:Extension:Scribunto/Lua_reference_manual#strict. The seeming almost 3'000'000 transclusions result from slow update of this huge wiki. Deletion will not break those, still maybe accelerate emptying of that essentially dishonest list. Taylor 49 (talk) 01:11, 30 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

 Oppose. Please demonstrate that it's actually unused. Otherwise, wait for the update. Enhancing999 (talk) 21:34, 15 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
After tracking it down, this is due to phab:T209310. Uses should be deprecated, but it will take a while. Thanks. Mike Peel (talk) 21:41, 15 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
 Comment Check the search link. It's obvious that it's unused. Please demonstrate how it is useful or where it is transcluded from. Taylor 49 (talk) 19:19, 17 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Once the transclusions reduce, then we can be confident that it's not being included in some unusual way. They are going down. Thanks. Mike Peel (talk) 20:22, 17 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I have done this on other wikis before. The wrong transclusion count sinks asymptotically towards ZERO, thus it can take years. It's obvious that the module is NOT used anymore NOW. Taylor 49 (talk) 14:53, 18 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It's easy enough to clear them by making touch edits by bot, let's see how the count goes down for now. There's no urgency here. Thanks. Mike Peel (talk) 15:04, 18 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Comment the module should not be used anymore and deleting it would ensure that. However I think we should wait for the number of transclusions to drop down, to ensure that it is not used somehow. Another thing to consider is to maybe just leave it be after blanking he code and convert the /doc page to explanation of what the page was and what it was replaced by. That way in the future people can inspect the edit history, and the source-code itself. --Jarekt (talk) 01:24, 16 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
 Delete: I am sure the transclusion count issue is basically another version of phab:T243602 (despite it having been closed invalid) as the actual usage can be seen by searches like: all: contentmodel:Scribunto insource:/[Nn]o globals/. Remember this module exports an empty package (which gets turned into nil) with no functions so there is no need to search in wikitext for #invoke references (as doing such will only render a permanent script error). We can still wait and watch the transclusion count drain after the page is deleted (it is just harder to find then). An argument could be made for keeping it for historic purposes (especially since mediawiki:Module:No globals is different with Module:TNT) but remember its replacement strict is now a part of Scribunto and thus goes beyond WMF and keeping historic things for such value is questionable at best. —Uzume (talk) 18:43, 16 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
 Comment Historic things can be preserved at MediaWiki or a dedicated place, not if the form of an obscure module with instances on every single wiki. Taylor 49 (talk) 19:25, 17 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I think we'd need the version available here, not at some unknown place. In Commons it's assumed that no space is saved by deletion. It's just a matter of visibility. Enhancing999 (talk) 19:36, 17 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
 Comment Out of project scope. Commons is a collection of images, videos and audio files with educational value, not a collection of dead code. Taylor 49 (talk) 14:46, 18 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
In order to ensure Module:No globals is not used, I alter it so any code that might call it will throw an error. Lets watch Category:Pages_with_script_errors for a bit to see if we see anything show up there. --Jarekt (talk) 04:00, 22 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Jarekt: Well now you have killed its historic value save its history (not that I am complaining). BTW, you might want to look at the spelling of "depriciated" vs. "depreciated" (you also might want to add "strict" in the error message instead of just do not use it). Your edit will requeue the page cache updates and cause the remaining links to drain faster. Thank you, —Uzume (talk) 06:15, 22 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Uzume: Good suggestions, I implemented them. As for historic value, what I meant was to preserve history of the page, and that is intact. --Jarekt (talk) 00:39, 23 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Jarekt: Agreed, but I notice you still have not corrected the misspelling "depriciated". —Uzume (talk) 06:11, 23 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Jarekt: "Depreciated" has a different meaning than "deprecated" (notice no "i"). Cool, your timely edits to this module may have removed more transclusion links than JarektBot did by replacing template redirects. This module is now finally down to less than a quarter million transclusions. Thanks, —Uzume (talk) 00:08, 25 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Indeed any edit accelerates the decay of wrong translusion claims. The module is obviously unused, and can be deleted. It's not about storage space (this silly discussion is now much more bloated than the code was), it's about maitainability. Any transclusion attempt should give an error and nothing else. Taylor 49 (talk) 21:40, 28 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Taylor 49:Actually, there is a storage space element to it. I recall not long after this was removed from usage here and it still had over 50 million transclusion links. That takes space in the database tables. Moving to strict and draining those obsolete links from the tables can improve performance across Commons (unfortunately there are many other elements in the opposite direction but every bit helps). Sadly due to numerous reasons (not the least of which is related to parser cache splits most commonly because "File:" pages want to render in the user preference language due constructs like {{int:lang}}, which can be different for every user/web request), the job queue cannot keep up with requests to update stale cached pages and thus they do not get entirely updated. —Uzume (talk) 03:03, 1 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Transclusions are now at zero, I think this can be deleted now. Thanks. Mike Peel (talk) 05:18, 11 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Keep per Jarekt. In the current version there is no risk it's being incorrectly used and the documentation is readily available and intact as outlined. Apparently nobody knows where the alternative would have been. Maybe we can focus on improving LUA instead, so other code can be simplified as well.

The Shelby County Sheriff’s Office was formed in 1820. This badge has been used since the beginning of the department. Henryja1002 (talk) 11:53, 30 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
If so, please provide link or source with evidence of that. At present, the logo's source is just to a webpage with a clear copyright notice. -- Infrogmation of New Orleans (talk) 17:10, 30 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
First and foremost under the US constitution it is prohibits registering a trademark that "consists of or comprises the flag or coat of arms or other insignia of the United States, or of any State or municipality," (15 U.S.C. § 1052) Given the badge of the sheriff’s office contains the seal of the state of Tennessee it can not be trademarked.
Secondly you can tell by checking https://shelbycountytn.gov/1264/A-Brief-History-of-Shelby-County that the county jail was remodeled in 1981 meaning the jail existed prior to that.
Thirdly, the Officer Down Memorial Page chronicles the SCSO’s existence back to July 11, 1904 (https://www.odmp.org/agency/3553-shelby-county-sheriffs-office-tennessee)
Finally under Tennessee case law (Metropolitan Gov't of Nashville & Davidson County v. Poe, 383 S.W.2d 265, 273 (1964)) each county sheriff is required to maintain the jail. This means that SCSO existed back then and maintained the jail as is required by state law.
With all these facts I find clear and convincing evidence that not only has the Sheriff’s Office existed past the date you stated, it is also covered in federal law that there can be no copyright on the badge due to the states seal being on the badge.

Unfortunately, there is no Freedom of Panorama in the State of Palestine. This means images of copyrighted buildings and monuments of the country (including those from four Biblical-era cities Bethlehem, Hebron, Jericho, and Shechem or Nābulus), cannot be released under commercial Creative Commons licenses without the landmark designers' permissions.

File:Paul Ludwig Ewald von Kleist.jpg[edit]

Per [1], this ca. 1943 (Kleist is named as Generalfeldmarschall) German postcard shows yet another photograph by de:Heinrich Hoffmann (Fotograf), who died in 1957. So it is still protected by copyright in Germany until the end of 2027, and the file should be deleted. Another version of the same photograph was deleted earlier with Commons:Deletion requests/File:Generaloberst v. Kleist.jpeg.

The file can be restored in 2028, unless it is found that the URAA did restore the US copyright for this photograph after all. The US copyright for a 1943 photograph would run to the end of 2038, so in that case the file could be restored in 2039. Rosenzweig τ 12:26, 30 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The photograph as such is dated here to May 30, 1942. --Rosenzweig τ 12:32, 30 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I found a higher quality scan of the original photogaraph, at the bottom left there's an "E. Bieber" watermark. I assume that the photograph was taken by an anonymous photographer working at the E. Bieber studio. Maybe the Hoffmann copyright refers to the postcard reproduction of the original image, published by Hoffmann? Meeepmep (talk) 01:32, 9 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Well, the Bavarian State Library, which has bought Hoffmann's negative archive, credits it to Hoffmann. But even if it were by the E. Bieber studio, the photographer is not necessarily unknown or anonymous. After de:Leonard Berlin-Bieber, the founder of the "E. Bieber" studio in Berlin, that studio was sold in 1910 to a photographer named Julius Rosenberg, who was apparently still around in 1931 accd. to web searches. It's not (yet?) clear who was the owner and photographer in 1942, but as said that's not necessarily anonymous. A 1942 German postcard is also still protected by US copyright until the end of 2037. --Rosenzweig τ 18:15, 11 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

But it's not anonymous, and even if the artist's name were not credited in the original publication, that does not mean we can treat this as an anonymous work under German law, because pre-mid 1995 German works of the bildende Künste, like this one, cannot be anonymous or pseudonymous works because the old German copyright law, still relevant in these cases, said so. See Commons:Copyright rules by territory/Germany#Anonymous and pseudonymous works. So the file should be deleted. It can be restored in 2039 with {{PD-old-assumed-expired}}.

Files found with Special:Search/Freiherr v Eelking[edit]

These pages taken from a 1934 German book were uploaded with the claim that there are "no known copyright restrictions". This is not true however. The book being published in 1934 means that it is still protected by copyright in the US until the end of 2029.

In Germany, copyright depends on when the author(s) died. The text of the book was written by de:Hermann M. von Eelking, who died in 1970. So the text page is still protected in Germany until the end of 2040. Per the immediate source, the illustrations of the book were done by Erwin Leiner (1903–1934) and Curt Bog (1900–1971). While Leiner's parts are already in the public domain in Germany (while still being protected in the US), I don't see any attribution to him for the drawings on the pages that were uploaded, so we have to assume that those are Bog's and still protected in Germany until the end of 2041.

So the files should be deleted. They can be restored in 2041 (the text-only page 68) and 2042 (the rest of the pages).

File:Santa Ana, california lopers gang map.jpg[edit]

Claimed as own work but the underlying map is blurry. This is most likely a screenshot from a low resolution image or a poor quality scan from a physical map. While it is possible the uploader has modified the original, the source of the map is not declared. The uploader is a frequent copyright violator and I don't think we can give them the benefit of the doubt that they created the map entirely as their own work.

File:Great state seal of the UPR.jpg[edit]

Unused file of very low resolution. Much better versions are available: . صلاح الأوكراني (talk) 22:43, 30 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

 Keep File:Great state seal of the UPR.svg is based on File:Great state seal of the UPR.jpg so that would break the attribution claim. File is already tagged with {{Vector version available}}. Multichill (talk) 21:07, 1 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
