FP Promotion question

Congrats for your picture. Not just this one, but I like your images in general. BTW, I'm not sure if you noticed: File_talk:Plafond de la chapelle des Maccabées 3.jpg. Good news if they (SSPBC) start using Commons images. If you care (and for future images), it might worth explaining them how to link them. I started Category:Cultural properties of national significance in Switzerland, but it's likely to take some time until it will be of use to them. -- User:Docu at 12:10, 10 January 2010 (UTC)

No response on permissions-nl@wikimedia.org

Dear Yann, please could you tell me what I have to do? About one month ago I asked for a ticketnumber on permissions-nl@wikimedia.org for a photograph I wanted to add to Category:Athletes from the Netherlands. Although I repeated my question several times, I never received any answer. This never happened before, because up to now handling these questions always went smoothly. I hope you can help me out. Thanks in advance,--Piet.Wijker (talk) 09:11, 16 March 2010 (UTC)

Re: What is this? (Thunderstorms on the Brazilian Horizon)

Dear Yann, the photograph was taken from behind a window so it could be some kind of artefact caused by light passing through the glass. It could be a reflection from the sun or from some other light source, but I don't really know. I don't suppose you know of any way to remove such artefacts?

Time magazine cover

Hi,

You once deleted File:Time 1933.jpg. It now exists in the English Wikipedia as en:File:1933 Time Man of the Year cover.jpg, listed as {{PD-US-not-renewed}}. If i understand correctly, the files under Category:Time Magazine covers are in the same situation.

So, is it possible to upload en:File:1933 Time Man of the Year cover.jpg to Commons? Or should the files under Category:Time Magazine covers be moved from Commons to en.wikipedia?

File:Nottingham Pride MMB 84c Kenelis.jpg

I've uploaded a new version of File:Nottingham Pride MMB 84 Kenelis.jpg as you requested - cropping out the whole bottle made it seem unbalanced, is this suitable? -mattbuck (Talk) 12:24, 26 August 2010 (UTC)

It helps focus on her face. I think it is better. It would even be better cropping more... but then it would be below the size requirement. Yann (talk) 12:30, 26 August 2010 (UTC)

QI reviews

Bonjour !
Je m'aperçois seulement aujourd'hui que le "conflit" que j'ai pu avoir avec l'un des "reviewers" des QIC a pris certaines proportions que je regrette, notamment par une "dénonciation", sous ta plume, de l'indélicat aux Autorités !
Je te remercie à titre personnel de l'intérêt que tu as pris à cette malheureuse histoire, et je ne sais toujours pas pourquoi cet athlète m'a ainsi pris en grippe, je ne le connais pas, n'ai jamais eu aucun incident avec lui ni rien... En tout état de cause, merci d'avoir pris ma défense ! Je dois reconnaître que j'ai été plutôt désemparé, tant je suis moi-même éloigné de ce type de violence. Il peut m'arriver d'être caustique ou même moqueur, mais j'essaie de ne pas blesser, ni d'être aussi "frontal" !
L'ennui avec ce genre de comportements, c'est que ça exacerbe des "contre-comportements" tout aussi dommageables : J'affirme avec force que la photo de la porte n'est pas surexposée, mais je concède bien volontiers que ma Légion d'Honneur en diamants n'aurait jamais dû passer (je l'avais soumise pour faire découvrir un objet rare et spectaculaire, mais effectivement flou). J'ai le sentiments que certains votants ont élu cette photo rien que pour contrer le contreur, c'est dommage...
De ton côté, as-tu une explication sur les agissements du personnage ? C'était quand même gratiné: il a soutenu d'un simple "support" plus d'une dizaine d'images diverses (les ordinateurs de Rama, je crois), et alors qu'un autre faisait de même pour une des miennes, il a alors "exigé" une explication de ce vote favorable !! Si ce n'est pas de l'intimidation, je me demande ce que c'est !
Le coup de la demande d'identification de l'espèce pour le coucher de soleil est costaud aussi, je trouve ! Cela a eu dans une certaine mesure le mérite de me rassurer, je ne suis pas absolument le seul ciblé (Archeodontosaurus le fut aussi avec son coquillage)
Bref, en tous cas, j'ai pû apprécier le comportement silencieux mais efficace de toute la communauté à l'égard de certaines de mes images injustement (et surtout inélégamment) blackboulées par cet atrabilaire. Tu en fus, et je t'en remercie !
Comme dirait Archeo, restons vigilants !
Bien cordialement, --Jebulon (talk) 17:24, 30 August 2010 (UTC)

File:Concorde.jpg

Bonjour,

Un photographe se plaint sur OTRS à propos de cette image en indiquant en être l'auteur. En l'état, il n'a pas plus de preuves à avancer pour confirmer en être l'auteur que le Community of the Ark of Lanza del Vasto. Peut-être as-tu des éléments soit pour confirmer que la Community of the Ark of Lanza del Vasto en est bien l'auteur, soit pour laisser penser qu'il peut bien en être l'auteur ?

Cordialement--Bapti ✉ 08:33, 3 September 2010 (UTC)

Bonjour, La Communauté de Lanza del Vasto m'a dit qu'elle possédait les droits, et m'a confié cette photo parmi d'autres, et me demandant de la publier sur Internet. S'il peut prouver qu'il est l'auteur (a-t-il une version haute définition ?), et refuse d'autoriser cette version basse définition sous licence libre, je pense préférable de lui accorder le bénéfice du doute comme détenteur des droits. Yann (talk) 08:59, 3 September 2010 (UTC)

Merci pour ta réponse. Le problème, c'est qu'il ne veut/peut actuellement rien prouver du tout, pas même qu'il a pris des photos de la dite manifestation. Donc pour le moment, sa demande est rejetée faute d'éléments. Bonne continuation.--Bapti ✉ 09:10, 3 September 2010 (UTC)

Hi. This concerns the image File:Estadio_Elias_Aguirre.jpg that could be deleted. I know who the author is and I've tried to contact the person but he does not respond. I don't think I will be able to get the permission if he doesn't respond, so the best thing would be to just delete it. Thank you. --MicroX (talk) 03:28, 4 September 2010 (UTC)

Hi Yann, please reply on Commons:Help_desk#Possibly_misattributed_image:_Commons_admin_help_requested. Cheers --Saibo (Δ) 10:04, 8 September 2010 (UTC)

I have answered there, and on his talk page. Most of the time, small thumbnails of pictures of people are copyright violations. Beside there are no EXIF data any more, which makes his claim suspicious. Regards, Yann (talk) 10:26, 8 September 2010 (UTC)

Okay, thanks. I hope you have noticed that tagging such an image with "no source" is definitely not the best way to deal with this. Cheers --Saibo (Δ) 20:26, 8 September 2010 (UTC)

Well No source here means rather Uncertain source. May be we need to reword the warning message. Yann (talk) 07:09, 9 September 2010 (UTC)

The "No source" template is correct if there is no source. What you mean here is "Uncertain source"; for which it is best, in my opinion, to just ask the uploader why exactly you doubt the source given and ask him to explain e.g. why the file is that small or why the EXIF is missing. Cheers --Saibo (Δ) 17:25, 9 September 2010 (UTC)

Pourquoi avoir supprimé ma photo File:GWR_LR1.jpg?

Cela fait maintenant deux fois que cette photo est supprimée. Elle représente le certificat de record du monde reçu par la société LR Health & Beauty Systems. Il ne s'agit pas du certificat en lui même mais d'une photo du certificat prise à travers la vitrine où il est exposé. Cette photo a été faite en Février 2010 au siège même de cette société et après accord verbal d'un des cadres de la société. Dans ce cas, si cette photo est interdite alors pourquoi la photo GWR_LR2.jpg qui est la deuxième page du certificat n'a-t-elle jamais été supprimée??? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Neorpheus (talk • contribs)

Bad joke? Not at all!!

Hoi, I am truly of the opinion that the image that I nominated is a great example of a genre of which we have hardly any. I think it is good enough to feature and therefore I proposed it. You should know me better by now for thinking that what I do is a joke, an attempt for a cheap laugh. GerardM (talk) 13:37, 17 September 2010 (UTC)

Tolstoy Pics

The first 2 pics on the Tolstoy page are of Leo Tolstoy's oldest son, the sculptor Lev Lvovich Tolstoy (see Wikipedia). From the look of his clothing and age the date is most likely 1920-25. The reason this image was originally labeled Count Tolstoy is that the title is hereditary, and as the oldest son Lev Lvovich became Count Tolstoy in 1910. Please don't change the captions. I don't want people thinking these are pics of Leo Tolstoy the Writer. Thanks.--INeverCry (talk) 05:39, 30 September 2010 (UTC)

Could you please explain to me how the precautionary principle is not a "valid reason for deletion" and/or point me to some examples of how the precautionary principle is actually applied in practice? Alternatively, an explanation of how my legal reasoning was invalid would be equally appreciated. VernoWhitney (talk) 12:35, 23 November 2010 (UTC)

Would you be so kind as to answer my question? VernoWhitney (talk) 13:10, 29 November 2010 (UTC)

I'd still appreciate an answer, unless you're purposefully ignoring me. VernoWhitney (talk) 14:26, 1 December 2010 (UTC)

File:Lenticular Cloud South Georgia.jpg

Bonjour Yann, merci pour l'intérêt que tu portes à cette photographie. Il me semblait que de la proposer dans un premier temps en tant qu'image de qualité est vivement conseillé... Ceci est un premier niveau de critiques... Mais bon, je n'ai pas trop d'expériences par ici et tes conseils sont les bienvenus. Bien à toi. Butterfly austral (talk) 17:50, 24 November 2010 (UTC)

Bonjour, je voudrais bien savoir pourquoi vous avez supprimé cette image avec pour motif : Copyright violation. J'ai effectué cette photo moi-même et l'ai mise à disposition de tous. J'aimerais bien avoir une réponse. Jacqueshb (talk)

File:One_For_The_Road_Cover.png

This image was donated to the Commons by the creators of the original work, and this was clearly indicated in the file information. PLEASE try contacting the uploader before you delete files. I realize you're not a newbie, but this only makes your action even more weird and difficult to understand.

I will proceed to upload the image once again and add it to the relevant article(s). — Preceding unsigned comment added by Uspn (talk • contribs)

I think we probably need a written permission sent to OTRS for this file. Yann (talk) 06:48, 30 November 2010 (UTC)

There is a mention of the licensing on the site and I've added a direct link to the missing information. Thanks for pointing out the lack of information on the Commons page. Uspn (talk) 22:28, 30 November 2010 (UTC)

Thank you for the feedback on Commons:Valued image candidates/Hamandir Sahib (Golden Temple).jpg

Hi,

Thank you for your feedback on my submission to the “Valued image candidates”. I am new here and I see that you (unlike me) have a lot of experience and I highly value your feedback (hopefully over time I'll learn as well). I have replied (on the image submission page) – please let me know if it makes sense or if perhaps I misunderstood the description or rules (which can happen). If you still disagree, please help me with a suggestion what would be a preferred/suitable scope for the image? Thank you for your time and interest in helping me to learn Wikicommons! --Oleg 22:31, 14 December 2010 (UTC)

Hi again,

Thanks for the suggestion of the new category. I have changed the category. If possible, please kindly re-vote. Thanks! --Oleg (talk) 18:38, 15 December 2010 (UTC)

Any information on Paul Gavelle?

Hello! I'd like to know if you could, perhaps, have any information regarding a photographer, who was probably French, called Paul Gavelle, who worked in the early 20th century in France. I believe he took photos in Eu. Thank you very much! Kind regards, --Lecen (talk) 05:38, 21 December 2010 (UTC)

Why did you delete this file? A low-resolution icon that is barely recognizable is propably not copy-righted. --85.164.86.92 13:54, 21 December 2010 (UTC)

Blic Logo

Hi, you deleted the uploaded logo of a serbian newspaper. Now i'm asking myself, why the other logos are not deleted? For example of the New York Times? Greetings--Bukephalos (talk) 15:31, 21 December 2010 (UTC)

Commons:Deletion requests/File:J.delanoy and Jimmy Wales.png

Since you of all people closed the deletion request again, would you care to actually explain your "No valid reason for deletion." comment? VernoWhitney (talk) 16:12, 21 December 2010 (UTC)

I was not and am not arguing. I am asking for an explanation which you have still refused to give. I'd still like to know what policy and relevant copyright law you feel I am missing since I felt I explained myself fairly thoroughly. To be clear, I don't have an issue with the image being kept since it was finally asserted that the uploader was the photographer. What I'd like to know is why your stance seems to be that the image should have been kept even without that assertion since you didn't even reference it in your closing statement (and it was not mentioned in the first DR anywhere). VernoWhitney (talk) 18:29, 21 December 2010 (UTC)

Would you please at least try to explain your decisions? I was under the impression that admins were supposed to "help users when they request it, or point them to someone or somewhere else where they can get help". VernoWhitney (talk) 15:28, 6 January 2011 (UTC)

There cannot be any other copyright holder than the camera owner, unless there is a common agreement than the photographer take the photo for himself. It is so obvious and common sense, I cannot imagine that you want to argue something else. Yann (talk) 15:52, 6 January 2011 (UTC)

Thank you for answering. So you're saying that if I loan my camera to a friend who takes a picture of me then I hold the copyright? Is this also the case if I loan my camera to a friend who, for example, travels to a different country and takes pictures completely unrelated to me? VernoWhitney (talk) 17:01, 6 January 2011 (UTC)

For me it depends if he takes the photo for his own use, or for yourself. If it is for yourself, it is similar to a work for hire: you ask him a service. If it is for his own use, he owns the copyright of his photos taken with your camera. In this case, its self-evident that the photo is taken for the camera owner's benefit. If you lend your camera to your friend for his holiday, you give him a service. So a service is given to a beneficiary. It is quite common sense, that, unless it is formally decided otherwise, the beneficiary owns the result of the service, i.e. the photos, and the copyright which is attached to the photos. Yann (talk) 17:08, 6 January 2011 (UTC)

Okay, I understand the common sense argument. Since we're looking at legalities though, common sense doesn't necessarily apply. Looking at http://www.copyright.gov/help/faq/faq-definitions.html the first paragraph tells us "[T]he creator of the original expression in a work is its author. The author is also the owner of copyright unless there is a written agreement by which the author assigns the copyright to another person" (emphasis added). Doesn't this contradict your common sense interpretation of the situation? VernoWhitney (talk) 17:37, 6 January 2011 (UTC)

Intent applies. The creator of the work is the one who commissioned it and directed it. I hand an anonymous person a camera and tell them to take a photograph a certain way, I am the creator, the individual taking the picture is just in my temporary employ. The creativity of the photograph, done under my direction is primarily mine. Any minor adaptations resulting from the photographer is incedental. Bastique ^{☎ appelez-moi!} 17:42, 6 January 2011 (UTC)

If you control every creative aspect of the work then I see your point as they are only acting as a mechanical agent like a tripod and remote timer. I don't see that this would apply if you handed your camera to someone and simply said, "could you take a picture of us?" or similar, though, without any creative direction. Wouldn't anything that involves them providing the minimal creativity required for copyright make them at least co-author and thus lead to the copyright problem? VernoWhitney (talk) 19:47, 6 January 2011 (UTC)

In this case, it is similar to a work for hire, as I have already mentioned above. Yann (talk) 19:50, 6 January 2011 (UTC)

Okay, this might be getting to the actual difference of opinion here: Are you saying that the photograph actually is a work for hire or just that its similar and the copyright isn't the photographer's for some other legal reason? VernoWhitney (talk) 20:32, 6 January 2011 (UTC)

File:年賀状-安眠うさぎ-縦.png

Hello Yann. You applied the no source tag on "File:年賀状-安眠うさぎ-縦.png". But this image seems to be the uploader's derivative work as shown in the summary and there are informations of the sources. What is the problem? --丁 (talk) 13:06, 22 December 2010 (UTC)

Thank you, but would you explain more? The Source1 is unneccessary, you think? --丁 (talk) 13:27, 22 December 2010 (UTC)

File:Eletrobras.png

You whacked a licence request on that file. No worries about that. The file operates under the same licence as these. If there is a problem, delete them all of fiddle the things so that there is everything even. If you intend to delete the file, let me know a couple of days before. There is no link to a particular discussion page on the sticker you whacked on the file. OAlexander (talk) 15:37, 22 December 2010 (UTC)

Kirk Douglas image

I just noticed that file File:Douglas 1956 still.jpg was deleted from the commons, but I don't see that any warning tag was used to allow fixing the problem. Can you please check into this so that I can restore the image? Thanks. --Wikiwatcher1 (talk) 20:27, 22 December 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for restoring the file. I added more relevant PD information. If the file is PD per you satisfaction, could you remove the Deletion discussion tag, since it states the discussion is ended, and might confuse some. Thanks again. --Wikiwatcher1 (talk) 08:57, 23 December 2010 (UTC)

Bonjour, pourriez vous me debloquer ? J'ai compris la procédure et je pourrais désormais faire les uploads de la bonne manière. Cependant, j'ai encore des fichiers en rouge sur ma page. Et j'ai déjà envoyé 2 mails pour la license. Je ne comprend pas.

Merci d'avance.

Deletion of "Honda Phantom Vehicle Inspection Checklist" or similarly named on 24/12/2010

Dear Sir/Mdm.

You removed my technical diagram (which I made) for the Honda Phantom motorcycle without warning, on the basis of "it is a non free screenshot". Please note the following.

1. This is NOT a screenshot. 2. This is MY work. 3. I created this diagram to aid in technical seminars for local motorcycle commuters. 4. Kindly note the person credited in the diagram. That's me. I'm sharing it F.O.C. for others' benefit.

Comment faire ?

Bonjour,

Lorsque je veux ré-uploader une image qui a été préalablement supprimé, il me dit de lire le deletion log. Mais neanmoins, je ne peux toujours pas la réuploader. Pouvez vous m'aider s'il vous plait ?

Je vous remercie d'avance.

Cordialement, Yodan94

Merci

Je voulais dire comment avoir un lien avant de les avoir uploader ?

File:Stieg.jpg

Are you sure about copyright violation? it was on PD licence, and it's on PD od en as well. Maikking (talk) 14:55, 25 December 2010 (UTC)

as a non admin on commons and en I couldn't find it as well. i tottaly forgot where it was. sorry for the inconvienence. Maikking (talk) 19:59, 5 January 2011 (UTC)

Please reopen File:Alfombras-Puertaalsur.jpg

Please reopen File:Alfombras-Puertaalsur.jpg; it already passed one DR, with three users feeling it was worth being kept. Whether or not it is useful, it needs a full DR, not two hours on Christmas Day.--Prosfilaes (talk) 21:32, 25 December 2010 (UTC)

OK, fine. Yann (talk) 21:34, 25 December 2010 (UTC)

Thank you.--Prosfilaes (talk) 22:20, 25 December 2010 (UTC)

How dare you delete my contribution?

I saw you deleted my contribution (File:Dia Mirza.JPG), did you cross check the credibility and the reasoning of the person who added the speedy deletion tag?

Fanofbollywood (talk) 07:07, 26 December 2010 (UTC)

My apologies for my tone, however It seems nonsensical to me if someone out-rightly deletes contribution without even checking the case thoroughly. As far as permission is concerned look carefully, there is a link which goes directly to the website, for your convinience here it is - http://www.filmitadka.in/static/filmitadka-creative-commons-attribution-share-alike-license.html

Fanofbollywood (talk) 07:15, 26 December 2010 (UTC)

I reverted the tag because it was absurd on the very first place to add a tag on an absolutely proper image, and now I see that you have deleted other images as well, I don't know how are you planning to compensate me.

Fanofbollywood (talk) 07:18, 26 December 2010 (UTC)

Man I don't know is there a kid on the other end of the system, all I can say is instead of wasting my as well as your time, why don't you take up the matter at any appropriate platform (Discussion page) on wikimedia. For all I know, the website clearly states that a particular section region is available on that particular license and not the whole website. And for that matter this file here File:BACHCHAN Amitabh 03-24x30-2009.jpg as well says that it is copyrighted under the same license, but when I follow the source there it is written "copyright", what should I do, shall I add a deletion tag?

Fanofbollywood (talk) 07:28, 26 December 2010 (UTC)

Exactly, and in a similar fashion, follow that link which I provided you and there you have the written permission from this website, also I encourage you to go through the ToC, which clearly mentions that ToC is applicable only until something else is not explicitly mentioned, second thing is you said that "link is there or not it doesn't matter", well then what matters? There is written content, video content on the wesbite which is fully copyright protected, of course they can't remove that footer.
