Comment envoyer une permission quand on a pas internet ?

C'est la question que Lucyin me pose.

Bonjour Yann,

Lucyin me fait savoir que la nièce de Gaston Lucy, seule héritière, est disposée à libérer les œuvres de son oncle. Le petit problème, c' est qu'il s'agit d'une femme de 90 ans qui n'y comprend rien à l'informatique et qui n'a pas Internet. C'est compréhensible ! Lucyin aimerait savoir s'il peut envoyer lui-même l’email à la fondation, avec en pièce jointe une lettre scannée contenant l'autorisation, datée, signée et contenant les coordonnées de cette dame, en expliquant pourquoi c'est lui qui envoie l'email et non elle. Y a-t-il des chances que ça aboutissent, d'après toi ? Y a-t-il une méthode alternative ? Reptilien.19831209BE1 (talk) 22:18, 21 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Reptilien.19831209BE1: Oui, elle peut rédiger une lettre manuscrite, que Lucyin peut scanner, et envoyer en pièce jointe. Cordialement, Yann (talk) 22:21, 21 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Impeccable, je fais passer le message. Un grand merci pour ton aide. Amicalement, Reptilien.19831209BE1 (talk) 06:34, 22 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia in Esperanto

Dear colleague! I am an administrator of Wikipedia in Esperanto. I reviewed few your edits in it (they are file renames, I know) and I want to give to you an autoreview status. Do you agree? Gamliel Fishkin 07:13, 22 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Gamliel Fishkin: Yes, fine. Thank you. In fact, these edits were made by a bot on my behalf because I renamed some files here on Commons. Regards, Yann (talk)

Done (log entry). Gamliel Fishkin 14:41, 22 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

File:Dimorphotecaeclonis1-2.jpg

Thanks for your suggest, I did it, see now if wrong I revert it, regards!!! Ezarateesteban 19:49, 22 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

And? Any other suggest? Ezarateesteban 17:37, 23 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, much better. Make it perfectly square. However, I don't know if that is sufficient to make it FP. Regards, Yann (talk) 19:16, 23 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Claire Monis

Bonjour Yann, j'ai remis la photo de Claire Monis à la demande de la famille sur la page https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Claire_Monis Pouvez vous svp me dire quel est le soucis ? Il s'agit d'une photo d'identité prise dans l'album familial Cordialement David David Choukroun (talk) 23:30, 23 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@David Choukroun: You didn't provide a license, and there is no evidence of a free license, or that it is in the public domain. We need the date of the first publication, possibly the author, and a proper source. Maybe it could be kept on the English Wikipedia under a fair use rationale, but you need to write it down on the file page. Thanks, Yann (talk) 08:57, 24 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Crop from a deleted file

Hi Yann. Since you've deleted File:Actor Anita Stewart on a 10-inch Ceramic Souvenir Plate. Vitagraph Studios publicity item.jpg, I'm wondering what you think about File:Actor Anita Stewart on a 10-inch Ceramic Souvenir Plate. Vitagraph Studios publicity item (cropped).png. It's a crop taken from the deleted file and there appears to be some disagreement as to whether it can be kept. (see User talk:Explicit#Question about original and cropped versions of same image and User talk:Clindberg#File:Actor Anita Stewart on a 10-inch Ceramic Souvenir Plate. Vitagraph Studios publicity item.jpg for reference. Please note the two editors I asked about this are quite experienced when it comes to image licensing matters, but they just happen to disagree about this particular file. If the file can be kept, then great; if not, then it's not something I'm going to lose any sleep over. It was just one of many files uploaded by the same person with sketchy licensing and that I thought that perhaps this one might possibly be able to be kept if cropped. -- Marchjuly (talk) 12:49, 25 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Marchjuly: Hi, yes, I saw these discussion. I think that the cropped version is fine with a PD-Art template. Regards, Yann (talk) 14:54, 25 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for taking a look at this. -- Marchjuly (talk) 21:31, 25 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Message from CoolChib

Why you delete my image- CoolChib124 (talk) 17:09, 27 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@CoolChib124: Because they are copyright violations. You don't have the permission of the copyright holder to upload these files here. Please read COM:L before uploading anything else. Thanks, Yann (talk) 17:20, 27 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Question for you

You blocked me for three days for one (1) revert. Yet other editors actually edit war and you do nothing. [1] [2]

I do not understand. Why are you against me? Krok6kola (talk) 00:43, 16 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

These 2 will certainly be blocked for a long time soon. Yann (talk) 13:46, 19 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

One (GPinkerton) was blocked for one (1) day by A.Savin [3] for more than 20 reverts, the block was appealed and the appeal declined by Elcobbola.[4] When the block expired, the editor deleted the evidence of the block[5]. (I notice that two days later you blocked that editor for one month). The other editor, Orijentolog, an editor with whom I have had a good relationship, went to A.Savin's talk page to discuss categories and A.Savin (who cannot block me himself as an involved editor who has a history with me) said he had been monitoring me [6]. He is looked for an excuse to get another admin to block me, as he had done previously. [7] That block, based on two edits provided by A.Savin, I appealed and was unblocked per a discussion on the Admin/User problems talk page. I want you to be aware of this history. I am not a perfect editor but I take the Commons seriously and do my best. It seems Admins on the Commons tend to stand behind each other without questioning. So I cannot exist here without constant worry even though I am doing nothing wrong (except the recent minor edit war with A.Savin) over a silly category (people bathing in regular clothes) placed on a Featured Picture that the photographer had asked A.Savin to remove from his photo of a religious man. Do you have any advice for me? Best wishes, Krok6kola (talk) 23:57, 19 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

It's curious to see my name proceeded by "It seems Admins on the Commons tend to stand behind each other without questioning", Krok6kola. I visited Category:Requests_for_unblock, as I regularly do, and found a request by GPinkerton, who had been blocked for edit-warring. I looked to see whether this was so. I found and summarized this. Do you believe this was "without questioning"? Do you believe GPinkerton was not edit warring? Do you believe their request acknowledged the issue and offered a credible commitment to discontinue, our requirements? Do you believe your veiled accusation of collusion/cronyism is in-line with COM:AGF? Эlcobbola _talk 17:54, 30 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Elcobbola: I am wishing for some other explanation as I want to feel good about the Commons and try to right to the best of my ability. As explained above, I was referring to your review and upholding of my three-day-block by Yann for my total of two reverts of A.Savin. Yann blocked me immediately after his warning to me (although I had replied I would not do it again but was blocked anyway). A.Savin has a history of trying to get me blocked. He cannot do it himself as he has a history of harassing me.[8] so I can only speculate as to why Yann thought my behavior deserved this treatment. Shortly thereafter A.Savin blocked GPinkerton for one day for making over 20 reverts. Two days later Yann blocked GPinkerton for a month. Your review of this block was correct in my opinion. I have a very high opinion of Yann or I would not have risked posting here. Is there not a discrepancy here? I am looking for an understanding. Krok6kola (talk) 19:22, 30 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

You've not answered any of my questions. Эlcobbola _talk 19:27, 30 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Maybe I do not understand your questions. I do believe GPinkerton was edit warring, I do not believe GPinkerton "offered a credible commitment to discontinue per our requirements". What you called my "veiled accusation of collusion/cronyism is in-line with COM:AGF" had nothing to do with what your refer to as this. Krok6kola (talk) 21:28, 30 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Ad:Wikimedia Commons has a specific scope

"Your image or other content was recently deleted, or will soon be deleted, in accordance with our process and policies, because it was not, or is not, within our scope." Can you clearify which photos? "Could you please stop trolling on Commons:Administrators' noticeboard‎." Accousation of "trolling" is false accousation. I'm serious. VVerka5 (talk) 13:55, 30 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@VVerka5: This refers to your posting on COM:VP. Regards, Yann (talk) 08:47, 1 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Should this image be deleted?

Hi, I noticed that you tagged this image (File:19821000 SCOTT HOPKINS 001 RESIZED S.jpg) because it doesn't have a valid and suitable license. It has been more than a week since the tag was added, and there is still no valid license below that image. Thanks. RyanW1995 (talk) 06:56, 1 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@RyanW1995:

Done There is always a backlog, so it can take longer to delete all files. Regards, Yann (talk) 08:47, 1 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Non-media MOTD nominations

Hell Yann, j'espère que tu vas bien. File:Manuscript of Violin Sonata No. 27 in G major, K. 379.pdf que tu as nommé comme MOTD pour le 27/12 et File:Kipling - Le Livre de la jungle, illustré par de Becque.djvu que tu as nommé comme MOTD pour le 28/12 ne sont pas des images animées ou des sons, bref des "medias". Pourrais-tu les changer stp ? A défaut, je veux bien m'en charger. Cordialement, — Racconish ^💬 17:20, 8 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Racconish: La discussion récente a validé ce type de documents dans MOTD, vu le peu de vidéos de qualité. Par ailleurs, même si ce n'est pas l'habitude d'en proposer, ce n'est pas interdit non plus, ce qui a aussi été mentionné dans cette discussion. Cordialement, Yann (talk) 17:27, 8 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Merci Yann. J'ai loupé cette discussion. Peux-tu stp me donner un lien ? Cordialement, — Racconish ^💬 19:48, 8 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Merci. Il y est question de livres, pas de fichiers pdf et la discussion n'est pas conclusive. Il me semblerait préférable d'attendre. Cordialement, — Racconish ^💬 19:57, 8 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Attendre quoi ? Et sous quelle forme peut-on bien avoir un livre, sinon un fichier PDF ? Yann (talk) 20:00, 8 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Un consensus clair (et pas quelques avis sur une branche d'une discussion) et le format djvu. Cordialement, — Racconish ^💬 22:28, 8 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

1. Le consensus est clair : 5 avis pour, aucun contre. 2. Le format DjVu n'apporte rien dans ce cas. La version PDF est en général de meilleure qualité que la version DjVu. 3. Comme je le dis plus haut, et mentionné dans la discussion, il n'y a aucun règle qui interdit de proposer des livres dans MOTD. Cela permet de diversifier le contenu proposé, et d'offrir du contenu de meilleur qualité. Vraiment, je ne vois pas de problème. Cordialement, Yann (talk) 22:40, 8 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Je pense que plusieurs contributeurs, moi compris, avaient cessé de suivre cette longue discussion en jugeant qu'elle ne menait à rien et cette proposition de la vingt-cinquième heure n'aurait à mes yeux de validité que si elle était faite explicitement et non surajoutée dans une discussion sur la périodicité. Sur le fond, je ne crois pas que les fichiers livre soient destinés à illustrer des articles encyclopédiques puisqu'ils sont plutôt destinés à être présentés sur le projet dédié. Il s'agit à mon sens d'une dilution du sens du projet Commons. Cordialement, — Racconish ^💬 07:36, 9 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

A-01 Samenerguss Penis Ultra001.jpg

I did not now that a file uploaded in 14:55, 16 February 2012 and with the last version uploaded in 19:07, 21 November 2016 is considered an recent upload and with 3,970 × 2,232 is considered an low resolution, as you claim in your deletion by (mis)quoting Commons:Nudity#New_uploads.

First an file with almost 10 years is not recent by any stretch as Commons:Nudity#New_uploads is pretty clear that "New files of low resolution or poor quality which provide little descriptive information of a subject we already have files of may be nominated for deletion citing appropriate rationale(s).

You did neither but instead speedy deleted this file, and File:Penis ultra02 to File:Penis ultra08, File:Penis ultra09 erectet.jpg and File:Penis ultra10 Erected Glans.jpg just because... because yes... Being an administrator does not gives you license to override and ignore rules and policies. Tm (talk) 18:24, 8 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

.If you think this images are out of scope nominate them to deletion, as proper way. Tm (talk) 18:24, 8 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

You claimed in the author talkpage that the files below, uploaded several years ago, were deleted as being non free and yet in each individual file you claim that this file were deleted based in Commons:Nudity#New_uploads. What are you reaaly claiming to be your rationale to the deletion?

Tm (talk) 18:41, 8 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

This account is globally locked, so Commons:Nudity certainly does apply. Regards, Yann (talk) 19:45, 8 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

In what purpose is stated in Commons:Nudity or any other policy or rule that it compulsory to delete files in scope if they are from a globally locked account? In no place speaks about blocked accounts. It is also clear that this files are not new, not low resolution or low quality.

Please stop making up rules and policies when the explicit ot implicit text does not support any of your actions, making three different reasons to "justify" your out of rukes deletion. Being an administrator does not give you the right to outside of rules and policies and unilaterally delete file just because. Undelete them and, if you think that there is any reason to do so nominate them to deletion and let others discuss it, not shove your unsupported opinion down other peoples throats.

About Commons:Deletion requests/Files related to buildings in Disneyland Paris

I have withdrawn some of the more arguable files. I wish to know why my deletion discussion was closed, was it purely due to its size, why keep the bathwater alongside the baby? Also, why was the discussion closed if all of the voters were uploaders of these images? (Oinkers42) (talk) 15:36, 9 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@(Oinkers42): This DR is the wrong way to do. First read the relevant rules here: Commons:Copyright rules by territory/France#Works of arts, including architecture, exhibited in public spaces. Then only select a few files at a time, with a detailed explanation for each. See also Multichill's opinion, who is an experienced contributor. I merely followed his advice.

Telugu-language films to Commons

Hope you are doing fine. I have learned during your Bangalore meet-up few years ago, subsequently done a few uploads of Telugu films using Video2commons. I have subsequently tried to upload a few old (1960 or before) Telugu movies, but met with some error messages. Can you help me, how to come out of the problems. I am seriously planning to upload these Telugu-language films to Commons. Thanking you.--Rajasekhar1961 (talk) 19:15, 14 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Rajasekhar1961: There are some bugs when uploading large files. For some obscure reasons, very large files usually failed. How big is your file? Did you try to create a WEBM format file on your PC, and to upload the result? Regards, Yann (talk) 22:17, 14 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I have tried to upload Rojulu Marayi (1955) movie from the Youtube link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F2DvVdlGgI0 . But it is failed with message like this : b'Audio is asked to be kept but the file has no audio tracks.' I have downloaded the movie to my laptop in the .wbm format and then uploaded with video2commons. Please help me.--Rajasekhar1961 (talk) 18:48, 29 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I get another error: Error: An exception occurred: AttributeError: b"module 'guess_language' has no attribute 'guessLanguage'". Reported here: Commons talk:Video2commons‎. There is obviously a bug somewhere. Yann (talk) 19:20, 29 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

What to do now. Should I stop uploading or is there any way out.--Rajasekhar1961 (talk) 18:34, 30 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Question about Copyright in Japan

Hi Yann, I have a question about copyright on artwork in Japan. There was an artwork on Wiki Commons that was made in circa 1928, but the artist died on February 10, 1972. According to the Copyright law of Japan says this = " in 2004 Japan further extended the copyright term to 70 years for cinematographic works. At the end of 2018, as a result of the Trans-Pacific Partnership negotiations and a requirement stemming from the EU–Japan Economic Partnership Agreement.[3], the 70 year term was applied to all works.[4] This new term was not applied retroactively; works that had entered the public domain between 1999 and 29 December 2018 (inclusive) due to expiration remained in the public domain." So if the 2004 copyright term does not apply retroactively that means 1972 + 50 years = 2022 which means the artwork is in the public domain. Or since it entered the public domain after 29 December 2018, the 70 year term is applied instead of the 50 year term. What do you think about this? -Artanisen (talk) 19:40, 18 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I am the owner of account User talk:Molecule 2211. My old account is user talk:Molecule2015. Now that account I lost the password so I just registered a new one. I specialize in downloading new versions of chemical images for bad images, especially those of user talk:Hoa112008 and User talk:Claudio Pistilli,...

Watercolor paintings by Edward Lawton Moss

Happy NY Yann, I don't understand the need for a cat Category:Watercolor paintings by Edward Lawton Moss. There is not enough content to justify it and there never will be. Besides that, the spelling, this is a British author not American... Broichmore (talk) 12:25, 28 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Broichmore: 3 files is more than enough to create a category. The point is to clean Category:Watercolor paintings, moving files in subcategories. We need to have a consistent hierarchy from the main category, but you can create a redirect Category:Watercolour paintings by Edward Lawton Moss if you find this useful. Thanks, Yann (talk) 12:31, 28 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I just dont get that as a reason Edward Lawton Moss will be empty. Why have empty cats? This is not an artist as such. He is a naval officer recording what he has seen. This proliferation of branches on a tree, over complicates the project, and adds overhead to the people who upload files, and or cat them from scratch. Do you not agree? Broichmore (talk) 12:38, 28 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

In this case, no. Works should as much as possible be in a category named "Works by ...", not in the main category. Regards, Yann (talk) 20:52, 28 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Rename of File:Paul Gauguin 144.jpg

Hi Yann, I noticed your rename of File:Paul Gauguin 144.jpg. This file has had the same name for over 15 years and is in line with the naming convention of Category:PD-Art (Yorck Project). Your rename of this file seems to be not in line with the basic principle of Commons:File renaming that file names should be stable. Give the fact that the file shouldn't have been overwritten you should probably split the history and leave the recent revision at File:Parau api, by Paul Gauguin.jpg and move the old Yorck file to File:Paul Gauguin 144.jpg. Can you do that? Multichill (talk) 20:29, 28 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Multichill: "Names should be stable" is only applicable if the name is meaningful. The previous name is clearly not good. It is ambiguous, and not precise enough. I let a redirect, so there is no problem with a renaming. Regards, Yann (talk) 20:48, 28 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

How we will see unregistered users

Hi!

You get this message because you are an admin on a Wikimedia wiki.

When someone edits a Wikimedia wiki without being logged in today, we show their IP address. As you may already know, we will not be able to do this in the future. This is a decision by the Wikimedia Foundation Legal department, because norms and regulations for privacy online have changed.

Instead of the IP we will show a masked identity. You as an admin will still be able to access the IP. There will also be a new user right for those who need to see the full IPs of unregistered users to fight vandalism, harassment and spam without being admins. Patrollers will also see part of the IP even without this user right. We are also working on better tools to help.

If you have not seen it before, you can read more on Meta. If you want to make sure you don’t miss technical changes on the Wikimedia wikis, you can subscribe to the weekly technical newsletter.

We have two suggested ways this identity could work. We would appreciate your feedback on which way you think would work best for you and your wiki, now and in the future. You can let us know on the talk page. You can write in your language. The suggestions were posted in October and we will decide after 17 January.

Thank you. /Johan (WMF)

Hawaiian Division patch

Yann, Thank You for cntacting me.

Can you upload it for me the way its supposed to be done, this one, the Hawaiian Division is really only one of two images I want to add to a Wiki page. I did this because the one that was three was a completely wrong shoulder patch for this U.S. Army Division of the 1920s -1930s Photo came from Pinterest via the U.S. Miiltaria Forum I think. The other one I want to add is the 93rd Infantry Brigade their unit crest, this one came of of Worthpoint, and was sold long time ago, Worthpoint just saves images of everything from old sales to "Show" it's Worth.

Here's the other one, if you can add it the way it's supposed to be please.

Deleted images of paintings by Nate Dunn

Hello,

A number of images that I uploaded of paintings of Nate Dunn were deleted. Among the deleted files were the following ones:

I personally own every one of these paintings whose images were deleted from commons and the "Works" section of the Nate Dunn Wikipedia Page, including Abstract 1, Abstract 2, etc. and each painting clearly bears Nate Dunn's signature. The paintings were largely purchased from auction houses and many of the paintings could be identified from lists in catalogues. The comment on the deletion of the images from commons suggests that works are not from Nate Dunn but they definitely are his works. Can you please let me know what is required for these images to be allowed in commons and also what the correct Creative Commons Attribution would be ? I would like them to be undeleted or to be able to upload them again to creative commons with the correct attribution.

Paintigns by Nate Dunn are a priori not in the public domain (at least you need to prove that they were published before 1926, or without a copyright notice).

Media of the Day

Just curious, but as you appear to be highly active in this field and notified me that there are quite a bit more MOTD files in the VPP thread, are the issues that were brought up several months ago (last year) still relevant to the MOTD system or have they now been addressed? As then a new discussion can be opened in light of the developments that have taken place since the discussion started and we simply ping everyone who voted in the previous discussion to see if they are persuaded by the new developments, as well as the three (3) separate new policies that were proposed (and accepted) to save the MOTD system. Please ping. --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 12:23, 13 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I think that the MOTW proposal was on overreaction to some MOTD issues. Yes, some videos shown on MOTS were of poor quality. Some people questioned the idea to show videos of demonstrations against vaccination and vaccination pass. The Featured Media contest is effectively dead, so there is no chance that it would produce even enough Featured Media for MOTW. However there is no shortage of good and interesting free media, to be shown on MOTD. We need a bit more activity and diversity to fill up the empty days. I nearly filled up a whole month by myself. Regards, Yann (talk) 13:29, 13 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Excuse the late reaction, as I wasn't pinged. Anyhow, once allowing PDF files is allowed I think that I can propose quite a number of books, both well-known books and some lesser known works that have been important in their own ways could be used for the main page. This would easily fill up the MOTD. But in general the best solution would be having more users that work with it. Maybe we could have standard days for media types but I am not how much is available, there are numerous books at the Wikimedia Commons, I think maybe even more than Project Gutenberg (which had 50.000 items as of 3 October 2015). --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 13:43, 18 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Donald Trung: Thanks. I try to have diversity, i.e. having a mix of videos, music of various styles and origins, speeches, recording of novels and poetry, PDF and DjVU documents (books, music scores...) which are notable and have some visual features, and not having the same type of media two following days, or even in the same week. I agree that it is quite easy to fill the whole MOTD with that. I also try whenever possible to have a media which matches a particular anniversary or a special day (e.g. see March 8th, for the Day for the Rights of Women). And yes, having more users would be good. Regards, Yann (talk) 16:04, 18 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Signifcant criteria

Hi Yann, I deleted a file which is now discussed for undeletion. Could you please explain what you mean with "significant criteria" in this remark. Being a fairly new admin, I did not see this before. Thanks, Ellywa (talk) 08:29, 23 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Ellywa: Hi, There is precisely a discussion about that on Commons talk:Project scope/Precautionary principle. Regards, Yann (talk) 10:12, 23 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, I will follow that discussion. In this particular case the image appears an en:Orphan work. As far as know these are copyrighted. At Commons it is decided to assume not in PD until 120 years after the original image was made. As beginning admin I try to stick to our guidelines closely. I had no doubt in this case. But it is a pity. As VRT agent I refused so many family album images of relevant people based on this. We will see how the discussion will lead to change of the guidelines. Ellywa (talk) 12:56, 23 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Ellywa: Family album images are IMO a special case, as most of them were never published before. In addition, copyright for unpublished images are quite dependent of the country of origin. For example, anonymous unpublished images from before 1937 are in the public domain in France and in USA. French anonymous unpublished images from 1937 to 1951 are in the public domain in France, but still under a copyright in USA. But if I publish of them on Commons for the first time, I own a new copyright for 25 years, and I can therefore release them under a free license.

The image is not a personal image, but a mascot for the site. Please restore.--Thyj (talk) 12:20, 25 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Thyj: Which site? Yann (talk) 12:31, 25 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Inai Inai Baa! Wiki, Short name is IIBWiki. Because Category:Xu Jiawei (IIBWiki), be mistaken for Xu Jiawei herself.--Thyj (talk) 12:34, 25 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Thyj: I am not sure this is an allowed use of Commons. See COM:WEBHOST. BTW File:Inai Inai Baa! Wiki.svg seems too complex for this license. We probably need a permission from the copyright holder. Thanks, Yann (talk) 12:41, 25 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

A question

Hello Yann. Thank you for your message. I am not a very active user but I am happy that I could add some valuable files that are free (one of them was nominated for media of the day in September 2020). I found that a user (I don't know them) has said that I am a vandal and that I lied in the past (linking this page: Commons:Deletion requests/File:Saddam Hussein..jpg) but I don't remember any comments there. I also don't remember uploading that file. I am sorry about comments of this user. Is this OK to say such things about another user without a reason? HeminKurdistan (talk) 14:59, 27 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi HeminKurdistan,

I would not give much weight to what Ypatch said. He has only very few contributions, and his report seems to be politically motivated. Regards, Yann (talk) 16:15, 27 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

You already voted in the DR discussion. You're not supposed to close it, are you? I suggest you reverse the closure and reopen it please. George Ho (talk) 07:32, 4 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

As I saw, you also closed Commons:Undeletion requests/Current requests#File:Flag of the Australian Aborigines.svg. However, you've been involved in the flag discussion. I fail to see why you're qualified to do so. --George Ho (talk) 07:38, 4 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@George Ho: That's really not necessary. Deletion requests are not votes. The decision is based on copyright law, not on opinions. The rules are clear, the flag is in the public domain due to age, whether you like it or not. Yann (talk) 08:37, 4 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

File:Zindagi (1940) cover of booklet.png

File:Zindagi (1940) cover of booklet.png has been listed at Commons:Deletion requests so that the community can discuss whether it should be kept or not. We would appreciate it if you could go to voice your opinion about this at its entry.

If you created this file, please note that the fact that it has been proposed for deletion does not necessarily mean that we do not value your kind contribution. It simply means that one person believes that there is some specific problem with it, such as a copyright issue. Please see Commons:But it's my own work! for a guide on how to address these issues.

Please remember to respond to and – if appropriate – contradict the arguments supporting deletion. Arguments which focus on the nominator will not affect the result of the nomination. Thank you!

suppression de fichiers sur Wikimedia Commons

Bonjour Yann Ayant eu des problèmes de santé, je n'ai pas pu reprendre mes contributions sur Wikipedia depuis fin novembre 2021. Pouvant à présent reprendre ma "plume" Wikipedia, je viens de constater que, sauf erreur, vous avez contribué à la suppression de près d'une vingtaine de fichiers que j'avais placé sur Wikimedia. Pourrait-on reprendre cette discussion en vue de restituer ces fichiers ? Comme je suis un peu néophyte, merci de m'indiquer la marche à suivre. NB : j'ai envoyé un message similaire à @Halbertix: .

Bonjour Yann,

D'après ce que je comprends ici, il me semble que pour ce fichier il faudrait l'autorisation du compositeur (Jean-Claude Benedetti, pour la musique) et de l’interprète (Bruno Picard, chanteur), et ce même si Lucyin est l'auteur du texte chanté, non ?

Mise à jour de l'image utilisée par le modèle {FRA-d}

Bonjour!
Il semblerait que l'image du drapeau français utilisée pour le modèle {FRA-d} sur Wikipédia (voir image n°1 ci-dessous) ne soit modifiable que pas un administrateur. C'est pourquoi je requiers votre aide. En effet, depuis le changement des couleurs du drapeau français en novembre 2021, ce modèle ne permet pas d'utiliser une version actualisée de l'image. Le seul moyen d'avoir un drapeau proche de l'actuel est donc d'utiliser un autre modèle comme le modèle {drapeau|France} (voir image n°2 ci-dessous), ce qui est fort peu pratique car cela implique de remplacer manuellement le modèle via le code.
Serait-il donc possible de mettre à jour l'image du modèle {FRA-d} ? Ou vaut-il mieux remplacer manuellement le code sur les pages ?
