Reason: I requested a picture from Johan Tyrberg, he redirected me to his press secretary and we agreed that we should wait for the official pictures. I got this on e-mail from press secretary Camilla Lindskog <camilla.lindskog@svenskakyrkan.se> .

 Not done: A specific and acceptable license is needed. The one you link to has a time limit and a cancellation clause, and makes no mention of commercial use and derivitaves, which makes it unacceptable for Commons.

I am working for Khaled Salmeen at Kizad/Abu Dhabi Ports Company.

I took the photo that was deleted. I work as a PR manager for his company, therefore I took the picture, and distributed it to the media.

It's our picture. Why are our images just being deleted randomly like this?

Our logos have also been removed from our company articles as well as recent images we took of our ports - critical pieces of Abu Dhabi infrastructure.

We have also uploaded translated versions of articles in Arabic but these are not being approved - yet they are perfectly fully cited and referenced according to Wikipedia guidelines.

These unilateral deletions of legitimate content by Wiki admins are seriously undermining our efforts to contribute to your website.

Hi friends,

I wish to request undeletion for this photograph of the late sifu James Cama. It was handed over to me by him before he died to be used freely. I used it in my book, Research of Martial Arts (www.researchofmartialarts.com), and have now uploaded it to Wikipedia in order to commemorate sifu Cama's memory on his page. This is supported by his family members, who thanked me for it.

Es ist nicht einzusehen, weshalb das Bild von Administrator Krd gelöscht wurde. Zwar gab es bereits eine Diskussion auf Commons:Deletion requests/File:Brazil and Croatia match at the FIFA World Cup 2014-06-12 (02) ball.jpg, doch ist die vorgetragene Begründung „design on the ball has an inependent copyright under United States law“ an den Haaren herbeigezogen und nicht tragbar. Mit dieser Begründung müssten alle Bilder, die diesen Ball beinhalten gelöscht werden. Es kann wohl nicht ernst gemeint sein, dass nur Fußballbilder hochgeladen werden dürfen, die diesen oder einen anderen Ball nicht beinhalten oder der Ball wegretuschiert werden muss, da auch die Bälle anderer Hersteller dem Markenrecht unterliegen. Die Bildszenen im Fußballsport leben gerade davon, dass der Ball im Bild sichtbar ist, oder gerade wenn ein Treffer gezeigt wird. Das Bild zeigt einen Abstoß/Goal kick des Torwarts/Goalkeepers und ist somit eine substanzieller Bestandteil des Fußballspiels.
Im übrigen finde ich es als Uploader des Bildes bemerkenswert, von der Löschung nicht einmal informiert zu werden. --Steindy (talk) 21:20, 2 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Oppose This is an image of a copyrighted ball. Essentially nothing else but the ball is in the photograph. That is very different from an image of a football player or football game that happens to include a ball. De minimis cannot possibly be applied here. As for other images, Commons has more than 20,000,000 images and receives more than 10,000 new images every day. My guess is that more than 1% of those -- 200,000 -- are copyvios or have other problems, so telling us that other problems exist proves nothing. .     Jim . . . .

This file was closed without anyone bothering to tell me. Given the low level of my activity here, can someone please inform me of updates on the en.wiki? It's not like I'm hard to find.

So let me make this argument again: the image in question is absolutely identified both to the source and the fact that is blindingly obviously covered by Crown Copyright. Not one person has even attempted an explanation as to why this still falls under their TLA rejection. Do you suspect it was not taken by a member of the RAF or Air Ministry? Do you suggest I am imagining that it is in the book and fully identified? Please, be specific so I can address your arguments - I can't address arguments that are off topic (what does US-Gov have to do with this image?!) or not even stated.

Maury Markowitz (talk) 13:17, 3 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Commons gets more than 10,000 new images and deletes more than 1,500 images every day. Fewer than 25 Admins do almost all of that work. DR notices come out of a script which places the notice on your Commons talk page, so the person nominating your file for deletion does not ever see your talk page. We have nowhere near the human resources to give people individual notices. I suggest that you enable being notified of talk page messages by e-mail, see Preferences > Notifications > Notify me about these events > Talk page messages > Email.
As for the image, it has been fully discussed here, see the archive. The problem is that for it to be Crown Copyright, it must have been taken by a government employee in the course of that employee's duties, which remains unproven. .     Jim . . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 14:31, 3 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
It certainly was not "fully discussed here", as you can see in the archive. The archive contains some off-topic banter by people who aren't familiar with the topic and are apparently discussing points of law unrelated to the image or the points that support it's claim of CC.
And as I explained, repeatedly, the image in question could only have been taken by members of the RAF or the civilian staff from the AM. The aircraft was top secret, and was only ever seen, let alone flown in, by members of assigned crew of five RAF pilots or the half dozen operators from AMES. All of these people are government employee carrying out the very duty that the image is about. Please, describe for me any scenario where there is even the slightest common-man argument against this being CC. Maury Markowitz (talk) 20:56, 3 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
The photographer being a government employee is not enough for an image to have a Crown Copyright -- the photo must have been taken as part of his official duties. I myself am on the fence on this one, but our standard of "significant doubt" certainly covers the possibility that someone just snapped off a photo. .     Jim . . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 21:13, 3 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
The previous discussion is archived at Commons:Undeletion_requests/Archive/2014-08#File:Avro_Anson_K8758.jpg. In that day and time, Crown Copyright was given to anything produced under the direction or control of the government (regardless if the person was a government employee or not). However, that still leaves the possibility that someone just took a personal photo while flying... that would not be Crown Copyright. If the author of the book had this photo and used it in the book, that is probably a personal copyright. If someone asked him to take photos during the flight and the photos were handed over, and the book got the photo from some sort of RAF or other government archive, then it would be Crown Copyright. I'm not sure there's enough information to really show one way or another right now. Carl Lindberg (talk) 17:14, 4 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Exactly. It seems to me that "significant doubt" must be the rule here. .     Jim . . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 11:06, 5 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I cannot find anything about contents registers? And I cannot believe, that there is any interest of the author or the publisher for this, everybody should be glad for publishing. But more important, the German license text say in this sence: This image of text has no original authorship and is therefore in the public domain, because it only represents information that is common property without sufficiently creative authorship. -- Kürschner (talk) 14:08, 5 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, these files were deleted by INeverCry at the request from user David Condrey. The reasons alleged by David Condrey are : " redundant, disgusting, pornographic, not-education, potentially self-promotional, disgusting, images of penis." Well, the last time I checked these images come from a prestigious anatomy book, so I see no reason to deserve these epithets. These images have an educational purpose.

First off, I would tend to doubt whether any deletion nomination notice was placed on this file's description page, so that there might not have been any real chance to know about or contest the deletion of this file (I certainly did not receive any notice on my user talk page as the primary uploader of this file, or as secondary uploader on File:Kalis Teeth Illustration.JPG for that matter). Even more importantly, this image File:KTB-FemDom.svg does not visually show or depict a penis in any way, and therefore the deletion rationales offered at Commons:Deletion_requests/penis (such as they are) simply do not apply to this image! Scanning down the list of filenames there, I see a number of other deletions which look rather dubious (unless the visual content of such images was radically discrepant from their names)...

This picture belongs to Pablo Kleinman, a Spanish-language media personality and former candidate for political office.

Multiple images showing male genitalia[edit]

Hi, in this deletion request a lot of pictures showing penises were nominated for deletion. The reason was "redundant, disgusting, pornographic, not-education, potentially self-promotional, disgusting, images of penis. lol" (yes, including "lol"). The files were deleted without any further information - including some medical drawings frequently used in almost all wikipedia versions. Did the admin even look at the files he deleted? I highly doubt that. Also the argumation used in the deletion request ("pornographic", "lol", "disgusting") wasn't actually legitimate. I therefore request the review of all those deleted images by an admin more conscientious. (As I see some of them were already restored by now because of another request above. Unfortunately the request covers only a few) --StYxXx

@INeverCry: Could you look at this please? Yann (talk) 05:35, 6 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I had just posted the following message at the village pump, so I deleted it there and repost it here :
Wait a minute ! Since when a deletion request can be closed like that without any debate, when the "reason" is so stupidly unencyclopedic and when so many pictures are concerned ?! Where are the (real) arguments for the deletion of some pictures and the keeping of others ? Also note that people who uploaded the pictures were not informed of the DR. --TwoWings * to talk or not to talk... 06:57, 6 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I am aware of some discussion about this DR on IRC. I propose two actions here:

  1. An explanation of what went wrong with the process, as evidenced by many undeletions being needed. As has been pointed out, the nomination appears exceedingly poor, and probably poor enough to be closed without discussion or action.
  2. The DR should be reopened. Considering the large number of images involved more than the standard minimum of 7 days would be needed for appropriate discussion, or the DR should be broken up into a set of focused and manageable DRs.

Lastly, mistakes happen, everyone makes them so let's not over-dwell on it. What matters is learning how to do it better. -- (talk) 07:14, 6 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Was deleted here because according to the English Wiki it's under copyright. The file I uploaded could possibly be argued to be under copyright (?), since it's a damaged (worn off) copy of the backcover, but I can't see how the version in the English Wiki could be under copyright here in Commons, as it's only text.

  •  Support Anne Rice is an American author, so presumably USA laws apply to this. There is no copyright for book titles under US law and no copyright for typesetting used here. Therefore the book cover is PD. Note that in the UK there is a special 25 year copyright for typesetting, so this would not be free under UK law. .     Jim . . . .

This was deleted contrary to consensus and with an inappropriate rationale. The registration cited (VAu000544065) applies to "computer graphics" (i.e., the images displayed on the towers, not the towers themselves). As this image shows only the towers, the registration is not germane. Эlcobbola talk 13:37, 8 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Oppose The rationale looks incorrect (the registration number seems to be for a specific picture or pictures of the item, although the picture(s) predate(s) the fountain), but there is no reason to believe that this fountain isn't copyrighted. --Stefan4 (talk) 15:14, 8 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    • The reason to believe it's not copyrighted, if you'd bother to read and engage the discussion comments, is that it is two simple brick monoliths. By themselves, they appear to be below the threshold of originality. Why, for example, would one trouble to register the videos played on the towers but not the towers themselves? Where is the tower registration? Alternatively, the "bricks" are actually screens, which is why there may also be a useful article component - these are just specialized screens. Эlcobbola talk 15:22, 8 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
      • The thing registered as VAu000544065 appears to predate the fountain, so I assume that the fountain designer thought that registering the fountain separately is unnecessary as the fountain is a derivative work of VAu000544065.
You seem to be stating that little sweat is needed to invent something like this, but the sweat of the brow doctrine has been rejected in the United States. I think that significant creative input is needed to get the idea of putting two bricks like this and making a fountain out of them. --Stefan4 (talk) 16:01, 8 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
@Stefan4: I am not sure if this monument is copyrighted (that's why I asked Jim), but I think you contradict yourself here (or Jim did, if you are just copying his argument). The monument cannot be registered as VAu000544065 if that registration predates the monument. Regards, Yann (talk) 16:16, 8 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
VAu000544065 appears to be a depiction of the monument created by the person who created the monument. You can create depictions of monuments before the monument is created, provided that you use a method other than photography. In this case, the depiction appears to be a computer-generated illustration. The finished monument is in turn presumably a derivative work of this computer-generated illustration. --Stefan4 (talk) 16:28, 8 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
The finished monument is two rectangular structures. There is no copyright in a form like that, no selection and arrangement copyright (just two of them), and the building material / aesthetics does not add to the copyrightability. You can register derivative works separately just fine, provided there is additional expression. It's a bit difficult to have a structure be a derivative work of a drawing; while possible most of the expression in the drawing is the specific lines drawn, the angle chosen, etc., which usually are not present in a 3-D version. It's possible an arrangement copyright depicted in a drawing could be recreated in a 3-D piece -- that has happened (and was ruled infringement). In this case though, I don't think there is anything copyrightable left in the structure, so there's no copyright left for a photograph to be derivative of. Calling a photograph derivative of the original drawings is way too far a stretch, in my opinion. As for the videos of the faces shown on their surface, those are of course copyrightable. Carl Lindberg (talk) 16:48, 8 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I think that the result of this discussion should also apply to files listed below. Yann (talk) 18:26, 8 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Oppose Carl, I disagree strongly with your opinion above. We have had similar discussions about sculptures in the USA before -- the USCO is very liberal about registering copyrights for minimalist sculptures by well known artists even when they are very simple. I remember the Commons discussion (and deletion) of Tilted Arc by Richard Serra, a simple rectangular slab of steel, that is USCO VAu000126617 1988 VAu000096606. Many people thought it was far too simple to have a copyright, but it clearly did. This is a similar case. If a simple slab of steel can have a copyright, then these two towers certainly can. .     Jim . . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 19:20, 8 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    • In that case as well, the registration you cite is a *drawing*, not the actual sculpture. "Description: art original : drawing." It does not necessarily apply to the sculpture at all, and should not be used as evidence the sculpture is copyrighted. You can make a drawing of an imaginary cube and copyright it; that does not mean the cube itself gets a copyright if someone sees the drawing and makes a cube. We would need a registration of the sculptural work itself. The CO has just been putting out the Copyright Compendium 3, which is what their copyright examiners use for guidance. The chapter on pictorial, sculptural, and graphic works is here; the chapter on general originality thresholds is here. They have a much richer set of examples than the previous compendium did, although I'm not sure they speak to this, but they have plenty of examples. The aesthetics and symbolism do not matter; it is the actual expression involved. These are two rectangular structures made of glass-like brick. I cannot see anything copyrightable there. Carl Lindberg (talk) 21:16, 8 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
My apologies, Carl. I picked off the wrong registration number from the list of Serra's works. You might have noticed that the work to which you refer above has a different title. The correct number for the slab of steel titled Tilted Arc is VAu000096606, which is shown as "sculpture in plaza". Again I ask, if a simple slab of steel has a registered copyright, who are we to know beyond a significant doubt that these towers do not? .     Jim . . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 10:48, 9 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry yes, had internet issues last night so was not able to post earlier. I did find the registration VAu000096606 where the authorship is listed as "sculpture in plaza: Richard Serra." Reading a little about it, the author considered the specific placement in the plaza as part of the work, and it's entirely possible that it was more of an arrangement copyright rather than pure sculptural. It is however not a straight wall; it does have a particular curve, and is at a slight angle (was not straight up and down). I'm also not sure it was the same height all the way through, though it looks to be pretty close. It is probable those were just enough to make it not a simple geometric shape, at least coupled with the arrangement. After looking at photos of that wall, I probably would not have voted to keep on that one (even without seeing the registration), as yes it's a metal wall but the question is if it's a common shape, and I'm not sure that one is. As a counterargument from the new Compendium, it does say Georgina Glenn painstakingly sculpts a perfectly smooth marble sphere over a period of five months. The registration specialist will refuse to register this work because it is a common geometric shape and any design in the marble is merely an attribute of the natural stone, rather than a product of human expression. I do not see anything out of the ordinary with the fountains; they are two square towers. The combination with the video of the faces is what makes it more interesting, but the structure itself looks extremely basic, and there is no real arrangement copyright. The material they are made from does not matter. If there was a copyrightable design on the surface, that would be different, but it looks like a standard brick pattern. It's a cool fountain, but it's not the shape of the structures which is copyrightable -- the only thing would be the addition of the video of the faces. Pictures which focus on that aspect could be an issue, but photos of just the structures I don't see as being a problem. There is no registration in this case; it is incorrect to delete on the basis of the drawing's registration. (Reading the Copyright Office appeals cases, they often offer to register the submitted drawings or photos of the sculpture when they reject registration on the sculpture itself... might have been what happened here. Not evidence either way, really, as they could have easily gotten a copyright on the videos they used, and I'm not sure I see one. Carl Lindberg (talk) 16:25, 9 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

See also: Möhring/Nicolini – Urheberrechtsgesetz – Comment 2. Verlag Franz Vahlen, München 2000, ISBN 3 8006 0314 4, § 59 Rn. 14. German law is complicated, you can't use a § for all FOP cases. --Steinsplitter (talk) 11:48, 9 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Care to summarize (in context, please) what they write there? I'll just point out that de:Panoramafreiheit#Deutschland points out quite clearly that "Die Aufnahme von einem anderen Gebäude aus ist nicht zulässig, [...]" (not allowed are photos taken from other buildings). I fear the deletion on FOP grounds was correct. Lupo 11:56, 9 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
P.S.: see also de:Öffentlicher Raum (public space) defined as "der ebenerdige Teil [...]". User:a×pde's comment are correct for "öffentliche Räume", but that does not include public buildings. You can invoke German FOP only for photos taken outdoors where the photographer was on ground level on public space. Lupo 12:03, 9 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I am the Admin who deleted the file. Therefore I should  Oppose this, but I see that Commons:Freedom_of_panorama#Germany and the summary at WP:DE disagree, so I have an open mind about it. In any case, we need to clarify the differences between the two summaries.

As I understand it, the image was taken from one of two places -- either a private viewing balcony with an admission charge or a restaurant, which is also a private place. Although there is usually no admission charge per se at a restaurant, one cannot usually just barge in, take a picture, and then leave.

At Commons:Freedom_of_panorama#Germany we have:

  • "Private property that cannot be freely accessed, e.g. because it is enclosed by a fence or there is some form of admission control, does not qualify for § 59 UrhG."
  • "...the Federal Court of Justice found that a photograph taken from a balcony of a privately-owned flat in a neighboring house the key to which was handed out freely to everyone who asked for it, does not comply with the restrictions imposed by § 59 UrhG because it was not taken from a public way, street or place."

The first quote above seems to cover both the restaurant and the viewing balcony and contradicts Axpde's assertion. The second quote seems similar -- if a private balcony with no admission charge does not qualify, how does the private viewing place with admission charge or the restaurant qualify? The restaurant also would be ruled out by the requirement that the space be dedicated to public use -- if railroad stations, subway stations, and airports do not qualify, how does a restaurant?

.     Jim . . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 15:46, 9 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Oppose I don't particularly understand axpde's comment. He appears to be quoting arguments and indicating that the are not explicitly in § 59 UrhG. That's true -- § 59 UrhG is rather terse -- however it seems to ignore the courts' interpretation thereof, particularly die Hundertwasserentscheidung. Where is discussion rebutting application of that case? For example, it found "Likewise, the aerial view of [a publicly-situated] building is not privileged [to the exemption of § 59] if only because it shows parts of the building that are not visable from the roads, streets and public spaces" (Ebenso ist die Luftaufnahme eines solchen Gebäudes nicht privilegiert, schon weil es Teile des Gebäudes zeigt, die von dem Weg, der Straße oder dem Platz aus nicht zu sehen sind) and "The limitation is meant to allow the public to paint, draw, photograph or film that which it can observe with its own eyes from the street. To this end, the statutory provision is no longer covered, if -- for example, through a photograph -- a place out of sight to the general public is captured" (Die Schrankenbestimmung soll es dem Publikum ermöglichen, das, was es von der Straße aus mit eigenen Augen sehen kann, als Gemälde, Zeichnung, Fotografie oder im Film zu betrachten. Von diesem Zweck der gesetzlichen Regelung ist es nicht mehr gedeckt, wenn – etwa mit dem Mittel der Fotografie – der Blick von einem für das allgemeine Publikum unzugänglichen Ort aus fixiert werden soll.) There is a clear emphasis on "street view" here, and indeed this photo shows the rooftops and rooftop gardens. Absent discussion of die Hundertwasserentscheidung, COM:PRP seems to apply here.

Both files were deleted under the reason specified as unclear copyright status, however several factors were not considered, there are ethics surround organizations, especially open-source organizations (which restrict or avoid using copyrighted material, going as further as to contact the responsible for any original and copyrighted work to prevent any legal action). Dogecoin is cryptcurrency institution, which was already subject of a legal action by Doge meme creator, a institution in such a profile and relevance wouldn't simply rip off someone's work to stamp as its logo, just to attract the wrath of its original author. And when I commented off in the deletion discussion, the closer admin just focused on a shadow of my argument, where I wrote "it is not my responsibility to judge the fact that they actually ripped someone's photo off". I actually meant that judging by their relevance and notability, it didn't really matter, they licensed the photo, I'm just using their version as a base for mine work and I believe they wouldn't use a copyvio image as their logo.

Also the project co founder released the logo under creative commons with attribution license, this can be found on their asset repository on github, or on reddit[4][5][6]. Another point which wasn't discussed is that there are interviews in which Kabosu rescuer and subsequent owner acknowledge Doge and Dogecoin[7][8], not making any restrictive action against both of them, in fact she was not even responsible for the photos because the dog itself was triggering the camera shutter. Also the discussion didn't point out to the fact that Japanese jurisdiction over protecting author rights differs from North American ways[9], wherein you can simple use a photo if there is no restriction where you obtained it from, a fact which disturb Japanese people who don't understand why Americans ask permission for usage or derivation. Eduemoni (talk) 01:52, 10 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Oppose I was the closing Admin. There are two aspects to this.
First, what is the license on the Dogecoin? The only actual license statement I can find in the several cites above is at https://github.com/jdaverth/doge_assets where it is CC-BY-NC-SA, which, of course, we do not accept. If there is a clear statement of a freer license somewhere else, we need to see it.
Second, there is the fact that the Dogecoin is derivative of a photograph. While Eduemoni claims that Japanese law allows the use of an image without permission, even if correct, that sounds a lot like fair use, which, again of course, we do not permit. While the copyright owner of the original photograph may have said that she would not sue for the use of her image, that statement was not in the form of an irrevocable license and therefore might be changed at any time.
So, we have above a lot of supposition and assumption, but no evidence proving beyond a significant doubt that the coin is freely licensed and that the coin itself does not infringe on a copyright. .     Jim . . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 11:48, 10 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Oppose There are two questions here:
First, is this a major work by a notable author? The only books we host in PDF form must fit that description. If not, it is out of scope.
Second, does the uploader have a license to all of the images shown in the book? The licenses must be not simply for use in the book, but for general use. Since I do not read Telugu, I have no idea who the subjects are, but since some images are in color and some are B&W, I would guess that they are not all the work of the author. Also, at the end of the book, I guess there is an image of the author himself -- he obviously did not take it himself as it is a posed portrait. .     Jim . . . .

Lazy hack Wdwd accused me of being a copyright violator and threatened me with blocking over these two files — among the hundreds I manually uploaded from Fotopedia back in the last week of “life” of this site, which closed in August 10th. The reason for the speedy deletions and accusations was that the reported source urls were 404 — which has an obvious explanation for whoever bothers to read the files’ history. Editors more competent than Wdwd have been waiting for Archive.org to make available snapshots of those source pages in order to allow license review, which was eventually done for most of them so far. There’s no reason to keep these two files deleted just because Wdwd could not be bothered to do some basic research before deleting them speedily and harrassing me. -- Tuválkin 19:46, 10 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

 Oppose Please refrain from dramatics, misleading statements, and ad hominem attacks. Wdwd put three entirely appropriate copyvio templates on your talk page. While it is true that the template warns that you can be blocked for uploading copyvios, it is not a threat in the sense you mean above. I see that you have been blocked before for behavioral issues. You should not be surprised if that happens again if you continue similar behavior.
Your characterization of Wdwd as a "lazy hack" is not only not allowed here, it is untrue. Wdwd found images that did not pass license review. It is not up to anyone but you to prove that the images are freely licensed. Until you find a source that clearly shows a free license, these should remain deleted. .     Jim . . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 20:36, 10 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for go on showing me how 1st impressions can be deceitful, Jameslwoodward (in this case, my own 1st impression of you). Let’s play, then:
  1. If the template warns something that’s not really meant, then the template should be reworded. It is frankly scary for new users and and bloody offensive for established users. (Or maybe the template is okay and Wdwd just misused it, as I said?)
  2. You mention I was blocked in the past, so that means that I’m more likely to be blocked in the future, regardless of the situation — is that a policy? (I’m not even bothereing to address the reasons that got me blocked — the records are there to be read by whoever actually cares.)
  3. So Wdwd found images that did not pass license review done by bot, and unlike other editors in his stead did for 650 other such images, he merely pressed a button instead of doing some fact checking — that’s very much the definition of a lazy hack. (And being one is apparenty allowed here.)
  4. I did prove that these images were freely licensed, as the site was still up when I checked the license. It went offline Aug.10th as expected and announced and coupiously mentioned in Category talk:Photos from Fotopedia, I cannot be blamed for that. (Nor I’m blaming any admins for not being fast enough in their licese reviews, as Jameslwoodward implicitly is.)
  5. So you say those two should remain deleted while the other 650 have been waiting for Archive.org, as mentioned, and tagged with this mantainance category by decision of other admins, is that so, Jameslwoodward? I wonder how those admins — JurgenNL, Natuur12, and Yann — feel about that decision, as it seems to be disruptive of the way they have been dealing with license reviewing of these images from Fotopedia.

I have better things to do than get into a spitting contest with you -- if you'd cut out the histrionics and accusations of poor work by various colleagues who are all volunteers, we'd all be better off. Do you really think it helps Commons to behave the way you do?
And, by the way, you have asserted that Wdwd deleted the images -- that's not correct either, as Wdwd is not an Admin. They were actually deleted by INC, who is the third most experienced Admin on Commons and cannot be called a "lazy hack" by any stretch of the imagination. .     Jim . . . .

Further, even if we were erroneously to assume it was published in 1910, works on the Commons must be PD in the US and their country of origin. PD-US (the publication threshold) is only applicable to the US position. The Netherlands is pma +70, so this would not be PD there until at least 01.01.2033 - per the deletion rationale, H.W.

My file is deleted for no reason. The guy who asked you to delete it said that "it is slightly modificated version" of some other file. But that is just not true. You can check a format and details and you will see that those are two totaly diferent files even though they deal with same thematic. My file is much more precise and I spend few months until I made it. I am very suprised that you delete it just because someone asked for that. It is the most detailed ethnic map od Bosnia ever made and it clearly bother some people who don't like truth.--Sigra35 (talk) 14:57, 12 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Oppose While I agree that this map is not a derivative of the particular map referenced at the DR (note, for example, differences in the widths of the protrusions on the western border), it is clearly derivative of some other map. A source for the underlying work on which this was based is needed to determine whether it is free. Эlcobbola talk 17:11, 12 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Oppose I agree completely with elcobbola -- while it may not be derivative of the map mentioned in the DR, the base map was not drawn from scratch by Sigra35 -- it came from somewhere and probably has a copyright. Unless Sigra35 can satisfy the community that the base map is freely licensed, we can't restore it. As for the accusation that "it clearly bother[s] some people who don't like the truth", that's just silly -- I have absolutely nothing at stake in Bosnia and I don't think that elcobbola does either. .     Jim . . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 18:53, 12 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Off course that I used some other map as a base. But that other map only had borders of country and municipalities. I added entity line and then I added every city and village one by one. Not only their position but also which ethnic group is majority and by how much. You see, the bigger circle for some city indicate how much people live in that city in total (according to agenda at right). And the smaller circle indicate how much is the majority nation bigger than other 2 main nation. For example, in city colored with green color, light green circle indicate how much people is in town in total (the green color because the Bosniaks were majority in town) and the dark green indicate how much are Bosniaks there more than Serbian and Croatian together. So you see, that was a big job. I spend months doing that. For each village and town I had to determine not just their position in some municipality but also the size of circles and color of the. The point and purpose of that map is exactly that. To show which ethnic group was majority in each town and village. The Borders are not the point of map. Off course that some other map had to be used as a base for the purpose od borders. But if that is the problem then 99% maps here should be deleted. The guy who made DR here has a lot of maps who used some other map as a base for borders as well. Regarding the people who protest this map and I said "they don't like true" the guy who made DR is clearly in that group. Who is not from this area will not understand. But this map is problem for Serb' nationalists because they like to color all mountains, rivers, woods and thing like that in their color. This map is realistic so that bother them because it shows how they were majorities in the small towns and villages. Hard to explain to people who are not from here I guess. --Sigra35 (talk) 08:48, 13 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I forgot to add the source/the base map for my work. Here it is: http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:BiH_1739.png As you can see in "licensing" it say "I grant anyone the right to use this work for any purpose, without any conditions, unless such conditions are required by law. "--Sigra35 (talk) 09:07, 13 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Support Since we now have a PD source for the base map, I see no reason that this should not be restored. Although the license on the base map does not require attribution, it is always a good thing to attribute sources, even if they are PD, and if you had done so, this deletion would not have happened. .     Jim . . . .

A photo of an innovation from about 1910 normally has been published at that time as an illustration of an actual report. If decades later somebody publishes it and claims to be the first publisher, he has to prove that it was unpublished before, not vice versa. Otherwise some clever people could demand license fees for photos they are not the owner of at all.

Therefore, for the free use of an old photo it cannot be necessary to tell the first date of publishing and name the first publisher.--Ulamm (talk) 08:22, 13 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Oppose Unfortunately, your reasoning does not work. This is a locomotive built in Hungary and used in Italy. The copyright rules are different and the location and date of first publication will determine whether this is still under copyright or not. If it was first published in Italy, then it is probably PD. If it was first published in Hungary, then it may be PD. .     Jim . . . .

Three files by Baumberge[edit]

There is no valid reason for the deletion. There are no documented copyright violations against this file. The license of the file corresponds properly to the GFDL. The authorship of the claimant is clearly noted in the image description. MagentaGreen (talk) 08:18, 16 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

These three files were all uploaded by User:Baumberge and all three DRs were started by him. While we do not usually delete files at the request of the uploader, if the images are unused on WP, the decision rests with the closing Admin.

Since these were all deleted 16 months ago, I do not understand why you are raising the issue now or, indeed, how you know that "The authorship of the claimant is clearly noted in the image description." .     Jim . . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 11:04, 16 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

This is certainly only a guess, but it behaves exactly as with the other pictures he has posted. He has his photos provided with a signature that has been removed from various editors rightly. However, he wanted to fight back with the deletion request. He put the request in the same way for many of his paintings without ever specifying a reason. This applies also to the above-mentioned three images.
The examples demonstrate both the type of signature as well as the relatively high quality of the images. They should not be deleted without a previous discussion. I think this should also apply to the three already deleted files. Regards, MagentaGreen (talk) 12:40, 16 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
P.S. It makes no sense to me to edit these images, if they were then deleted without reason and only due to the caprice of a single admin.
MagentaGreen (talk) 12:56, 16 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
 Oppose These were deleted via uploader request. The uploader is an adult and I see no reason why the deleting admin shouldn't have respected his wishes as he did. The first two are images of the uploader himself, and the third has his copyright watermark intact. If he wants these images restored he can request it, but I don't think we should reverse deletions requested by the uploader without his input or agreement. INeverCry 18:24, 19 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Oppose The first two are indeed of the uploader; as unused images of a non-notable person, they would have been subject to deletion on COM:SCOPE grounds regardless of the user's request. The third may also have scope issues. It is indeed of the Longinusturm, but at a somewhat bizarre angle that partially obscures (and distracts from) the tower with out-of-focus vegetation. File:Longinusturm-sommeransicht-2007.jpg is far superior for educational use (i.e., illustration of the tower), so I see no reason to restore the image in the absence of a compelling reason for retention and contrary to uploader's request.

The undeletion discussion in the following section is now closed. Please do not make any edits to this archive.

This is a puppet consisting of a small set of 2D objects which has been deleted in potential contradiction to the official policy of Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag. There is a single small rod which can be either ignored under COM:DM or masked out. The closure uses the rationale that the official policy is not good enough, as the WMF and existing Commons community consensus does not take into account that the original Bridgeman decision was for oil paintings, not for other types of 2D works. This has not been our past convention for interpreting the view on scans and photographs of 2D vs. 3D artworks. If an administrator wishes to act beyond official policy, I would expect them to propose that change to the community rather than deleting images outside of policy to set an effective precedent. In such a proposal we might consider other cases such as the wire-framing decision of Meshwerks, Inc. v. Toyota Motor Sales U.S.A., Inc. a case that intrinsically provides alternative shadows and re-texturing for an original artwork and yet was not considered to introduce sufficient new creativity to produce a copyright.

Considering the precedent this could set, this deletion request should have more than one opinion, especially when the one opinion I gave was to keep, in contradiction to the close. Examples of future deletions on these grounds would include photographs of old or even ancient 2D artworks that are not flat paper or oil paintings, and have potential for trivial shadow lines or reflections, such as paper cut-outs, paper templates, tile cuts, large flat crochet work, copper etchings, scrapbooks, glazed or enamelled surfaces, ancient frescos, etc. Consequently raising for UNDEL discussion as the DR has already been closed. -- (talk) 11:14, 19 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Oppose I was the closing Admin. Note that one other user felt that the delete was appropriate, so Fae's summary above is not entirely accurate. As I said at the DR, Bridgeman covered only Old Master paintings. I think WMF's extension to all 2D works, including drawings, etchings, wood block prints, and the like is appropriate. Our current policy is very careful, however, to exclude works that are nearly flat, such as coins, carvings, and the like. I also agree with that.
I do not believe I am changing policy with this deletion. In fact, I think it is Fae that is trying to extend our PD-Art policy to a work that is not 2D. The subject work is not flat -- it consists of sticks (slats) of wood that have depth. The image is not a "slavish copy" (Bridgeman words), but required considerable care and skill to photograph without having distracting shadows. In that respect, the image is similar to an image of a coin or a carving, which we do not include in PD-Art. .     Jim . . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 13:34, 19 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry, the image was not of "sticks (slats) of wood". This inverts the case. As I recall there was one small rod, which could be masked if not covered by DM. The other elements are a small number of flat pieces of wood, not sticks, which by design were intended to be extremely flat as the work is intended to be seen as a silhouette, being a shadow puppet intended to be seen as a 2D projection. -- (talk) 18:04, 19 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Oppose per Jim and per Meshworks. Fae's invocation omits consideration of the finding that "to the extent a photograph reflects the photographer’s decisions regarding pose, positioning, background, lighting, shading, and the like, those elements can be said to 'owe their origins' to the photographer, making the photograph copyrightable" and, in quoting Nimmer, that "the photographer is entitled to copyright solely based on lighting, angle, perspective, and the other ingredients that traditionally apply to that art-form.” The decision against the computer models was based on the finding that "Meshwerks did not make any decisions regarding lighting, shading, the background in front of which a vehicle would be posed, the angle at which to pose it, or the like." As Jim noted, this image is not a slavish copy as contemplated by Bridgeman. Rather, it has a particular background, a particular lighting, a particular angle, etc., all elements identified by Meshworks as "ingredients" that may give rise to copyright. Эlcobbola talk 15:01, 19 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    • Sure, however can you explain why we should not put the precise same rationale in new DR requests for all photographs on commons of old crochet work or plates for etchings that we currently host as if they were 2D works, both of which have choices for lighting, shading, positioning, background etc.? In fact the same logic actually applies to old oil paintings as careful choice of lighting will show brush-work more distinctly than flat on lighting. This choice appears to be overturning our standard Commons interpretation. -- (talk) 17:58, 19 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
      • When it comes to photographs, the copyrightable elements are the angle, the positioning of the subject (if under the photographer's control), the lighting, the framing, and elements like that. With a straight-on photograph of a painting, most of those elements are gone. The positioning, framing, and angle are basically all pre-chosen -- about the only thing left is lighting, and in most cases that is about skill (just trying to reproduce the painting accurately) and not creativity. If there was an out-of-the-ordinary lighting used to make a unique photo of a painting that is otherwise straight-on, that could be different. But with coins and subjects like this, the other copyrightable elements come back into play a little bit, quite possibly enough to cause the photos to be copyrightable. I'm pretty sure that photos of picture *frames* (as a product) were found to be copyrightable, so the line isn't very far off. I think I would side with deletion on this one. Carl Lindberg (talk) 19:14, 20 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
      • Firstly, this would not apply to images for which the uploader is the photographer – far from your hyperbolic “all photographs". Secondly, your purport is that this is some new interpretation. It is not; rather, you seem merely to misunderstand or not to be aware of the underlying considerations of Bridgeman, Meshworks, et. al. That others may share or have shared this misunderstanding is an irrelevant innovation of OTHERSTUFF. Эlcobbola talk 22:09, 20 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

 Oppose The license shown at http://aestesis.eu/elektronika/ is CC-BY-ND, which is not acceptable for Commons or WP:EN. The Apache license which is found at the location you cite is not used on Commons, principally because it requires that every use of the licensed material must include a copy of the license. Thus, in order to use the image on Commons, the image description would have to include the whole license. Please see COM:Licensing. .     Jim . . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 14:20, 22 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
The Apache Software Foundation's own advice on how to apply the license suggests that the authors of the license consider providing a link to the license to be in line with the spirit of the requirement in 4(c), and as far as I know {{Free screenshot|license=Apache}} is accepted here. If it's not, we've got a bigger problem. LX (talk, contribs) 14:43, 22 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I kindly ask you to reload our picture - our company, Albatros Media a.s., as owner of Plus publishing house, represents an publishes Martin Jensen´s books in the Czech republic.

I´m very concerned about your policy of deleting pictures.. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pilounek (talk • contribs) 07:46, 23 September 2014‎ (UTC)[reply]

 Oppose We delete images after due process when it appears that there has been a copyright violation. This is done to protect the copyright owner -- in this case, apparently, your company -- from people who falsely claim to be the copyright holder. We also prohibit uploading an image a second time without due process -- a rule you have broken.
In this case there are six copyrights for which we must be concerned: the image itself, the cover of the book, and the four large images on the display behind the subject. If your company holds all six copyrights, then the image can be restored to view after the company sends a license using the procedure at OTRS. Note that OTRS has a significant backlog, so it may be a month or more before the image is restored. Please do not reload the image a third time -- if you do, you will be blocked from editing on Commons.
If your company does not own all six copyrights, then the image can be restored only if we receive a free license from all of the applicable copyright holders using the same procedure. .     Jim . . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 13:56, 23 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Reason for deletion was: File was deleted on 16 September 2014 by BrightRaven for "No permission since 6 September 2014". It is unknown if a proper license was provided by the uploader.

Reason for undeletion is: The file is under public domain, as stated by the source: "Dancers: Edward Curtis 1910; [Public domain image]". This declaration can be found in the source code of the web page (to access the source code press ctrl+u on most browsers). I'm requesting the file to be undeleted and provided with the correct license: PD-old-50-1923, public domain because the work was published before 1923 and the author has died over 50 years ago (source on author's age: loc.gov). Finnusertop (talk) 13:08, 23 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The licence provided by the uploader ({{Cc-zero}})) was not valid. Curtis was American. {{PD-old-50-1923}} is not appropriate, because it can only be used when the copyright term in the country of origin is life + 50 years or less. {{PD-US-1923}} could be used instead. I agree with the undeletion request. BrightRaven (talk) 13:21, 23 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
{{PD-old-50-1923}} can be used for files from any country, provided that the file is in the public domain in the source country, that the file was published before 1923 and that the author has been dead for at least 50 years. It is preferable to use {{PD-old-50-1923}} instead of {{PD-1923}} if it is known that the author has been dead for at least 50 years as this provides information about the copyright status in more countries than {{PD-1923}}. However, {{PD-old-auto-1923|1952}} is even better. --Stefan4 (talk) 13:35, 23 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

This isn't really an OTRS issue. Ownership of the physical item (which is what the requester says they can prove) has nothing to do with ownership of the intellectual property (IP). Unless the auction papers explicitly convey the IP, something I've not seen and something the requester has not claimed, there is nothing OTRS can do here.

Also File:Miguel_Ramon_Izquierdo.jpg Taken from an official source and deleted as Copyvio. If not mistaken was this or maybe this photo taken from the Spanish Parliament website, which allows free reproduction as can be seen in this upload.--Coentor (talk) 20:55, 23 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Oppose I have just added {{Delete}} to the image you cite above. The first clause in the restrictions quoted is "a) Not alter the contents of the information", which is ND, something we do not permit on Commons. .     Jim . . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 12:27, 24 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Agree The literal translation from spanish is "that the content of the information won't be altered". The original sense in the original language is closer to "don't tergiversate" rather than "don't modify". Ask Wikimedia Spain if You have any doubt about the license and its meaning.--Coentor (talk) 13:31, 24 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I assume you meant to use {{Support}} rather than {{Agree}}, as you don't appear to be agreeing with me.
"Tergiversate" is a great word, but I don't see how it applies here. Webster gives "fudge, hedge, pussyfoot, equivocate, waffle, weasel" as synonyms. Could a user draw a mustache on the photo without breaking this rule? Add a speech balloon (as in comic strips)? .     Jim . . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 14:48, 24 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The legend was written with text in mind, as I understand it. WM Spain should have more information.--Coentor (talk) 16:51, 24 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Oppose per Jim. Whether we take the cognate translation ("alter") or the purported translation of the spirit ("tergiversate"), it is nevertheless a limitation on the scope of derivatives, effectively ND. Alternatively, whatever the translation, the meaning intended seems sufficiently vague as to cause signification doubt as to freeness, a COM:PRP concern. If congreso.es indeed intends to allow derivatives, let them say so explicitly in correspondence through COM:OTRS if we are to host the file. Эlcobbola talk 16:58, 24 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
To let them say it explicitly We shuld contact WM Spain, becaure that tenplate wasn't created by me, so it was made by anyone else, under some interpretation of the law.

  • Español: El problema acá es que hay plagio, ya que las fotos fueron sacadas de la cuenta de Flickr a la que se enlaza (cuyas fotos fueron subidas el 2012), y dichas fotos no han sido publicadas bajo una licencia libre. Si realmente eres el propietario de las fotos (y el propietario de la cuenta de Flickr), por favor sigue el conducto regular mediante OTRS para probar su autoría y autorizar su uso en Commons. Si no eres el propietario de esas fotos, te estás arriesgando a una severa violación de copyright por usar material con copyright en tu libro; eso ya es un problema con el propietario de los derechos de autor de las fotos, NO con Commons.
English: The problem here is there are copyvio, because the pictures has been taken from the Flick account linked in the Copyvio tag (pictures uploaded in 2012), and the pictures are published not-under a free license. If you really are the copyright holder of the pictures (and/or the owner of the Flickr account), please follow the OTRS procedures in order to proble the authorship of these pictures and authorize the ussage in Commons. If you don't are the actual copyright holder of the pictures, you are risking a severe copyright violation for using copyrighted material in your book; that it is a problem with the owner of the copyright of the photos, NOT with Commons.

Undelete above, please. For some reason that I don't know the links were related with this ticket; the copyholder sent me an email about them, but or he forgot to join the links in the first ticket, or maybe the files are duplicated. Please check. Thanks.

AFED_magazine_198-199_cover.jpg

source of the debated AFED magazine 198-199 cover image

A footnote of the image source (AFED Mag website) states: «© All rights reserved, Al-Bia Wal-Tanmia and Technical Publications. Proper reference should appear with any contents used or quoted. No parts of the contents may be reproduced in any form by any electronic or mechanical means without permission. Use for commercial purposes should be licensed.»

Undelete because I have the permission from the copyright's owner to use all magazine 'cover images' and 'public event photos' in Wikipedia project. You may contact copyright's owner for confirmation. --J.Domna (talk) 09:53, 27 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Undelete because the use of the cover does not limit the copyright holder's ability to sell the magazine, as the magazine archive is available online free of charge within the publisher's website. --J.Domna (talk) 09:53, 27 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Oppose This is a clear copyright violation. The argument in the last paragraph does not stand up -- the publisher reserves all rights and the fact that a Commons copy "does not limit" does not make the infringement appropriate. Permission for use "in Wikipedia project" is not sufficient -- both Commons and WP:EN require that images must be free for all use, including commercial use. This can be restored only if the publisher provides a completely free license using the procedure at OTRS. .     Jim . . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 10:02, 27 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Fair use rationale

It is believed that this image's use qualifies as fair use because:

  • the publisher/copyright owner freely circulates magazine cover image, in media press of each new release, for public domain.
  • Its use here does not limit the copyright holder's ability to sell the magazine,
  • It is being used for informational purposes only, not for profit.
  • It is being used to show the cover of the very magazine being discussed in the article in the section about this magazine.

 Oppose Fair use is not permitted on Commons, see COM:Fair use. .     Jim . . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 10:06, 27 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Estimados, quería pedir la restauración del archivo Dario_Giustozzi.png ya que sin darme cuenta y por mi inexperiencia cuando lo subí por primera vez dije que los derechos eran reservados y me confundí.

¿Serían tan amables de restaurarlo?

Pictures of stage performance[edit]

Hi,

Following a discussion with Spurzem, I think that some pictures of stage performance were deleted by error:

These are shows with horses or costumes. I don't think there could be any valid copyright claim from the show director on these pictures. Regards, Yann (talk) 18:59, 27 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

 Support I don't understand the edit comments at all, but if these are actually outdoor live action (one looks like it is in a movie theatre), and the background is natural, not man-made, then I agree with Yann that the only copyright here is the photographer's and there is not one for the costumes or staging. .     Jim . . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 09:43, 28 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

To Whome It May Concern,

I am requesting that the files listed here please be undeleted. I had submitted permission from the copyright owner to permissions-en@wikimedia.org. The email below contains the forward that I sent to permissions-en@wikimedia.org on September 25, 2014.

Please communicate with me so I can resolve this rather than run into any ambiguity with respect to what has happened with the file.
