Please forgive my poor english first and I am new to wiki. I, sparktour(also signed as sparkcyf,Qingyuan.Fan`, is the photographer of this image. I shot it with my canon eos 600d and edited it by the adobe photoshop, however I incorrectly set the copyright settings in the camera and left the "All Rights Reserved." in the exif of the image. I'm sure that I'd like to publish this photo with CC BY SA 3 License. I am glad to upload the photo again to meet the regulations of the Wikimedia commons. Above all, I am sorry for the mistakes that I I've made. wish my application could meet your favorable consideration. --Sparktour (talk) 14:32, 30 November 2017 (UTC)

 Support I think we can assume good faith here. This is a big image (5,184 × 3,456px) and therefore unlikely to have been found copied from somewhere. .     Jim . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 14:51, 30 November 2017 (UTC)

Dear Sir,

Kindly restore the photo Precious Chikwendu Fani Kayode.jgp. There is no copy right issues here. Infact it was directly given to me by the owners from www.femifanikayode.org ie it was obtained by permission from them.

I therefore urge you to undelete the photo immediately.

Regards

The photo was deleted by Jon Colbert on the grounds of being a selfie. It is not a selfie. It was taken by Deborah Price and I have permission from her to use the photo on wiki. I think my mistake was to give the picture a title which I assume you interpreted as a photographer credit. This was my first attempt at putting a pic on to wikicommons. Can you help? Eg remove the name?

 Oppose Actually, it was deleted on the ground that it was not s selfie and, therefore, the actual photographer must give a free license using OTRS.

Deletion_requests/Files_uploaded_by_Sparktour

There may came a misunderstanding of these photos. I, sparktour(sparkcyf) had taken these photos by myself. The canon egos 5d &Sony ilce-7s are my own camera I also has a canon eos 600d, 80d , Sony alpha-5000 and Nikon d3300 (some of those are my relative’s) I’d like to publish these photos according to the cc by sa license. By the way, the photos taken by Nikon d3s are not my work. I copied it from my school’s website, I’ll ask my workmates whether these photos could be published here according to cc by sa license later and I really get the approvement from them to publish these photos. I’m sorry for the ignorance of the copyright regulations of the commons. I would appreciated if the mark of the copyright problem mark removed. (I've send the email to the OTRS mailbox and the current ticket is [Ticket#: 2017113010005654] )--Sparktour (talk) 14:25, 1 December 2017 (UTC)

This picture was taken from a book written in 1988. We have a signed document from the author of the book, allowing us to use the picture for wikipedia. --G1ulvia (talk) 09:57, 1 December 2017 (UTC)

 Oppose There are several problems with this request.

First, "allowing us to use the picture for wikipedia" is not sufficient. Both Commons and WP:EN require that an image be free to use by anyone anywhere including commercial use and derivative works.

Second, policy requires that the actual copyright holder must send a free license using OTRS.

Third, the image is a photograph of a framed paper photograph or poster. It seems unlikely that the author of the book actually holds the copyright to the work shown and therefore probably does not have the right to freely license it.

In order to have the image restored to Commons, the actual copyright holder of the work shown in the photograph must send a free license using OTRS.

Finally, please note that re-uploading an image that has been deleted from Commons is a serious violation of our rules. If you do it again, you may be blocked from editing here. .     Jim . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 13:39, 1 December 2017 (UTC)

Bonjour El fahim Badr,

Merci pour votre courriel.

Cette permission n'est pas nécessaire, en effet, « Cette image, ou le texte inclus, comprend seulement des formes géométriques simples et du texte. Le seuil d'originalité nécessaire pour la protection du droit d'auteur n'est pas atteint, et le fichier est donc dans le domaine public. »

I agree with Jcb that it is not OK for an OTRS volunteer to decide all by himself that an image is below the ToO when a DR has decided otherwise. While the image may actually be below the ToO, since we apparently have a free license in OTRS, please give the ticket number here and we can use it in the image's file description to eliminate any question of its status. .     Jim . . .

File was created by myself. Please restore.

Leshugenottes77 (talk) 18:05, 29 November 2017 (UTC)

  •  Oppose The fact that it would be good to have this image in an article is irrelevant here. There are many images that it would be good to have, but we cannot keep them if they violate copyright.

The question here is how did you create the file? The rules on coats of arms may seem a little strange, but you must follow them. If you created this from a blazon -- a text description of the crest -- then it is OK. If, on the other hand, you took it from another image of the crest, then it is a copyright violation unless the crest you took it from is PD. That is true whether you scanned an image, copied a file, or redrew it yourself using a Paint program. If you claim the source is PD, you must be able to prove it. .     Jim . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 13:20, 3 December 2017 (UTC)

  • Thank you for further clarification. Please see below how I created the file:
  1. I have created the file based on a blazon published in Nobiliaire et armorial de Bretagne, Band 2.. The blazon provides info on content and colour of the crest: "D'azur au chevron accomp. en chef de deux etoiles et en pointe d'un rameau de chene englante, le tout d'or", literally translated (Google Translate): "Azure chevron acc. in chief of two stars and in base of a branch of oak englante, the whole of gold". The link is also provided in the Wallot (Familie) article.
  2. I have inferred the shape based on the desription "D'azur au chevron". Chevron is a classic crest form in French heraldic, please s. the Wikipedia France article Liste de pièces héraldiques and scroll down to "chevron". Leshugenottes77 (talk) 14:29, 5 December 2017 (UTC)

 Oppose I don't think item (2) applies. That item refers to the previous item, so for these to be PD, they would have to be one of "constitution, acts, regulations, or official documents". They are clearly none of the first three and it would be a long stretch to call them "official documents".

The image I uploaded is owned by Theodore Boborol who is a close friend of mine. I have permission to use this photo. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Arisanthonee (talk • contribs) 19:31, 5 December 2017 (UTC)

They will need to use the COM:OTRS system to e-mail in confirmation of the permission they gave you to use this file. You will also need to explain your conflict of interest regarding the article you created on English Wikipedia. Nick (talk) 19:35, 5 December 2017 (UTC)
Please note also that owning a copy of a photograph does not automatically make Mr. Boborol the copyright holder. Copyright is almost always held by the original photographer, so we need a permission coming directly from the photographer. De728631 (talk) 20:23, 5 December 2017 (UTC)
It's likely two separate photographers, as the user uploaded two different photographs under the same file name. The first photo was taken from IMDb and the second, from a newspaper. My guess is that Mr Boborol has told Arisanthonee just to take a photograph from the internet, which is why getting a copy of the permission they sent Arisanthonee is the first step - I wouldn't complicate things with mention of photographers and the like at this early stage.

Also, this other one in the same situation: Mapa_-_Río_Pánuco_en_Tampico_-_1919.jpg

I realize that I was ignorant and careless and made many mistakes. I am doing my best to learn from those experiences and do this properly; thus, I got in touch with the publishers of the original map.

My message:

  • I wish to adapt a section of the map "Rí­os de Tabasco y Tampico 1919" from "A Handbook of Mexico, Great Britain. Naval Intelligence Division, 1919 " and use such adaptation in Wikipedia. Can I do that without infringing copyright? Please advise.

Their reply:

  • Yes, you can. We request that HathiTrust be attributed as the source of the digital images with the addition of "courtesy of HathiTrust" to the citation, and that links to the digital images be included where possible.

 Oppose This is the entrance to The Great Movie Ride, a discontinued ride at Disney's Hollywood Studios. There are two issues here.
First. is this utilitarian? Is it architecture? If the first, it does not have a copyright. If the second, it is pre-1990 US architecture and, therefore, also not copyrighted. I am inclined to think that it is architecture and therefore OK.
Second, we have several other versions of the marquee. File:The Great Movie Ride indoor marquee.jpg, is a similar image which is in use and shows that marquee in a better way without as many people in the way.

The image is a photo taken by me in February 2014 when I visited the Dutch Burgher Union of Ceylon in Colombo. The nominator stated in their request for deletion that the image was taken from http://bombaywalla.org/the-dutch-burgher-union-of-ceylon-1908/, (which was published in October 2015) if you examine both images alongside each other you will clearly see that whilst it is the same subject that they are two completely different photos. I took the photo when I visited the DBU in February 2014, which I included on my personal travel blog]. I am fairly certain that I have since deleted the image from my camera's digital memory card given that it is almost 4 years ago now, but I will be checking to see whether I still have the image details. It should be noted that I did include a brief comment in the talkpage before the image was deleted however the administrator, Jcb either did not read the comments or choose to ignore them before proceeding with the deletion of the image. On the basis of the above I am seeking the image be restored. Dan arndt (talk) 03:45, 15 December 2017 (UTC)

 Oppose You cannot save one of your uploads from being deleted for poor quality by inserting it into an article after the DR was initiated. That does not make it "in use" for the purpose of deciding whether it has educational value.

Also note that COM:SCOPE explicitly forbids this sort of "in use". Using it as an example in Цифровой шум изображения (Digital Image Noise) is exactly what this forbids:

" the fact that an unused blurred photograph could theoretically be used to illustrate an article on "Common mistakes in photography does not mean that we should keep [it]".

Request to undelete:

Reason for undeletion: alamy.com has these pictures in their website, but it is very likely that they copied them from Wikipedia or from Commons. I don't know alamy.com and how reliable it is, but I know people who took those photos and gave me permission to upload to Wikipedia, and they have nothing to do with alamy.com and none of them are called "Paul Fearn" as alamy.com claimed. The images were deleted very quickly after nomination (just 3 hours), giving me almost no time to respond. It was a couple of years ago and I don't remember all the details, but if you restore the files so that I can read the file history and the description I added when I uploaded them, I'll be able to corraborate my story.

Pinging Jcb and B dash who deleted these files (or proposed their deletion). RedaolPku (talk) 08:45, 12 December 2017 (UTC)
As mentioned before, you have to provide the link from Facebook and the given permission from the authors. --B dash (talk) 08:46, 12 December 2017 (UTC)
They're in whatsapp and facebook messages from a couple of years ago. It will be hard to find them, but even if I do they're private conversations, I need to have their permission to share. Also, in File:Haze Pontianak Mosque 2015.jpg you said it's from alamy.com, but I didn't see you provided any evidence? RedaolPku (talk) 08:52, 12 December 2017 (UTC)
http://c8.alamy.com/comp/KJ3DTY/haze-pontianak-mosque-2015-KJ3DTY.jpg. --B dash (talk) 08:58, 12 December 2017 (UTC)
B dash: Another evidence in my favor: your "Paul Fearn" guy who uploaded these pictures liked to copy from commons e.g. see [1] and [2] and [3] and [4], [5] and [6] on totally unrelated subjects, with very different quality and uploaded to Commons by a different user than me. How likely is it that this guy is active in the USA, Israel, and Singapore, Indonesia on vastly different topics, very widely different photo quality and got his pictures stolen by multiple Commons users? RedaolPku (talk) 09:05, 12 December 2017 (UTC)
In fact if you see Paul Fearn's uploads to alamy.com [7], browse images at random, and search the file name in Commons, you'll find them all here uploaded by different users. Do you still believe his claims? RedaolPku (talk) 09:18, 12 December 2017 (UTC)

 Oppose Completely aside from the question of their appearance on alamy.com, these files are not acceptable for Commons. All of them have

"Source=The author sent it to me and told me it's ok to upload to the public domain."

That is not an acceptable source. The actual photographer must be named and must send a free license using OTRS.

There is also the question of their poor quality -- they illustrate the SE Asia haze, so that is not an issue, but they are all poorly composed and cropped. Two of them show a mosque with a large bush in the foreground, blocking the view. Just because the haze degrades their quality does not mean that they should be poor images otherwise. .     Jim . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 10:38, 12 December 2017 (UTC)

comment - do you have any better pictures to offer, to illustrate the subject? because otherwise/until/unless you do, the observation about their quality is, irrelevant; if not, as you would say "out of order". #justsaying Lx 121 (talk) 19:14, 13 December 2017 (UTC)
Jim: Thanks for your pointing to OTRS. According to it, looks like I need to ask the photographers to explicitly grant permission using a boilerplate template. I can try to do that, but can the pages please be undeleted first? I need the original pages to find out the author's name so that I can contact them (they're named in the description), and so that I can point them to the page instead of just saying "remember that haze picture you took 2 years ago?". According to Commons:Deletion requests, discussions are normally done for seven days to allow for the uploader to show evidence, but in this case the pages were deleted 3 hours after nomination, so I didn't have time to find/collect evidence and respond. RedaolPku (talk) 17:05, 12 December 2017 (UTC)
@RedaolPku: just to clarify, these were not standard deletion requests (which should last a minimum of seven days). Instead these were nominated as speedy deletions, which can be deleted instantly if the deleting admin is satisfied that there is doubt about the copyright status of the file. Green Giant (talk) 20:11, 12 December 2017 (UTC)
  •  Oppose per Jim. Unacceptable source. However, re the bush, I suppose it could be in frame to show that the lens was not fogged over and there was no mechanical reason for the apparent haze.   — Jeff G. ツ 13:12, 12 December 2017 (UTC)
@RedaolPku: I have temporarily restored these five files. You have 48 hours to download them to your computer/phone/device to help your with tracking the authors. This is a strict limit - the files will be deleted again in two days unless licences are forthcoming. Obviously they will be restored if licenses arrive after re-deletion. Please be aware of our burden of proof policy, which means YOU must demonstrate why the files should be kept rather than other users having to prove they should not be kept. So please focus on contacting the people you state are the photographers. Green Giant (talk) 20:11, 12 December 2017 (UTC)
@Green Giant: Thanks for the restore. I am contacting the photographers right away. Hopefully they get my message and respond to OTRS in time, but I'm a bit worried as it's been two years. As background, when the 2015 SE Asia haze happened I felt bad because natural disasters in third world countries often don't have much coverage, including in terms of pictures in the Wiipedia pages. So I used social media to ask people in the affected area if they were willing to volunteer their photos to the public domain. Because many don't know how to use Commons I offered to upload for them. I specifically confirmed with them that they were the photographers, and that they agreed to release the photos to the public domain. I didn't realize that this means there has to be an OTRS process, I thought it would be similar to uploading one's own photo where one doesn't have to do any OTRS. Had I known this I guess I should have ask them to learn how to use Commons. But anyway, thanks for the restore. RedaolPku (talk) 04:59, 13 December 2017 (UTC)
  • I have added the {{OTRS received}} tag to those four files. Having looked at the links provided by RedaolPku, I am not confident that Paul Fearn is the copyright holder for any of these images. He has some 22,000 images to his credit on Alamy including numerous old photos which cannot be his work unless he is over 100 years old (unlikely but not impossible). I suggest leaving this section open for a bit longer but the 48-hour limit remains on the last file. Green Giant (talk) 23:32, 13 December 2017 (UTC)

 Oppose I doubt very much that User:PhotoReq is the actual photographer of this 1973 image as claimed in the file description. The photograph is still under copyright. While PhotReq may own a paper copy of the original photograph, the copyright and the right to freely license the image almost certainly remains with the photographer of the original 1973 image. In order for it to be restored here, PhotoReq must either (a) prove (using OTRS) that he actually owns the copyright to the 1973 image or (b) get the 1973 photographer or his heirs to send a free license using OTRS. .     Jim . . .

  • Hm. Is this the image of the map alone, or the entire article ? It sounds like the article was written by a Louis Botte, whose date of death has not been determined. If the map was done by someone else at the newspaper, it would seem to have been published anonymously, and thus PD-anon-70-EU (and PD-1923). If the map was authored by Mr. Botte, it gets more difficult, as the copyright would last 70 years after death. It's fine for the U.S. part of policy, so we would just need to determine what the French copyright term would be. Hrm... he wrote a book in 1913, Au cœur du Maroc. Ooh -- per this 1918 publication, he died fighting for France in WWI (Louis Botte, qui raconta son voyage au Maroc et mourut depuis А l'ennemi, sur le front de France). While that would add the 30-year extension for "dying for France", plus the two wartime extensions of 14 years and change, to the original 50pma term (not shortened by the EU copyright), I think that would be expired by now (though just in the last few years).  Support Carl Lindberg (talk) 16:55, 20 December 2017 (UTC)

To do so, simply add four tildes (~~~~) at the end of your comments. Your user name or IP address (if you are not logged in) and a timestamp will then automatically be added when you save your comment.

Bonjour,

J’aimerais comprendre pourquoi ce fichier a été supprimé ?

J’en suis le créateur, et faisant parti du CA de Radio Campus Angers, j’en possède pleinement les droits. Les autres radios ont leur logo (ou n’importe qu’elle Asso ou entreprise), qu’elle est la différence ici ?

Bonjour Shiwut,
Tout d'abord, non, la plupart des radios, entreprises ou associations n'ont pas leur logo sur Commons ; seulement celles sont dont le logo est très simple (du texte uniquement par exemple) ou celles dont l'auteur du logo a libéré les droits d'auteur.
Si vous possédez les droits d'auteur sur ce logo, vous pouvez les abandonner pour pouvoir placer le logo sous une licence libre compatible avec Wikimedia Commons. Dans ce cas, vous pouvez envoyer un courriel à permissions-fr@wikimedia.org avec un message comme celui-ci Commons:Messages type#Déclaration de consentement

Bonjour VIGNERON,
Merci pour votre réponse, j'avoue que cette histoire de droit est très obscure pour moi, mais je comprend le bienfondé de la démarche.
Le logo n'étant déposé nul part, il est donc libre de droit par défaut, non ? Quand je signalais en posséder les droits, c'était simplement du fait que j'en suis le créateur.
Cordialement
Shiwut (talk) 09:09, 21 December 2017 (UTC)
Bonjour Shiwut,
Malheureusement (ou heureusement pour les créateurs), par défaut tout création est automatiquement et comlètement protégée sans que la moindre démarche soit nécessaire (ou comme le dit le code de la propriété intellectuelle, art 111-1 « L'auteur d'une oeuvre de l'esprit jouit sur cette oeuvre, du seul fait de sa création, d'un droit de propriété incorporelle exclusif et opposable à tous. »).
Du coup pour libérer une création, une démarche est par contre nécessaire. Ici, un simple mail reprenant le texte donné en exemple et envoyé à l'adresse indiqué suffira pour libérer et donc faire restaurer le logo.

  •  Oppose. The default assumption that we make on Commons is that every image found on other websites is copyright-protected unless there is evidence to the contrary. The photo is on the Internet because it is on the website of the organisation that makes the Award (iuss.org/index.php?article id=631), which would naturally be the original source of the photo. That doesn’t mean anyone can upload it here as their own work with a license of their own choice. That right belongs, by default, to:
  • the person(s)/organization who designed/made/commissioned the award; and
  • the person who took the photo of the award, and
  • the person who took the original photo that forms the core of the award.
We will need at least one and quite possibly three separate licenses in order to host this photo and it’s counterpart (the reverse side which you also uploaded). The onus to prove that the photo should be kept on Commons is on the uploader and/or users supporting retention of the photo. Green Giant (talk) 11:58, 18 December 2017 (UTC)

Since user accounts are anonymous, and people constantly upload material from the Internet, we typically require that works which are already available on the Internet go through the COM:OTRS process, where the author confirms the license in a private email. Images get undeleted at the end of that process.

Dieses Foto ist ebenfalls wiederherzustellen. Please restore this photo as well. It is my dog [8] [9] The advertisment an Admin found in Quoka is mine [10]. I have the right to use my own photos for other purposes too. I have sent an Email to wikimedia-permissons to confirm this. Why are the letters black and not red, if the image is deleted? [11] Sciencia58 (talk) 20:25, 27 December 2017 (UTC)

 Info File:Golden Yorkshire Terrier.jpg deleted December 27, 2017. Thuresson (talk) 20:38, 27 December 2017 (UTC)

The "copyright" claimed by Quoka means, that other people are not allowed to take and use the images from the advertisments. The photographer himself/herself is allowed to do so, which means he/her is allowed to use his/her photo in other places for other purposes too. By putting an own photo in an advertisment the photographer, the owner, does not give his/her copyright away. Sciencia58 (talk) 06:59, 28 December 2017 (UTC)

 Oppose However, because people dishonestly take photographs from advertisements and other places on the Web and post them here as "own work", Commons policy requires that when an image has appeared elsewhere on the Web without a free license, the actual copyright holder must send a free license using OTRS. In this case, the image appears on the Web with an explicit copyright claim. .     Jim . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 12:13, 28 December 2017 (UTC)
The Copyright Quoka generally claims for all images in their advertisements means, that other people are not allowed to use them. This is a protection for the people who upload their own photos in order to offer or to sell something. By putting an advertisement into Quoka, the owner of the photo, the photographer himself/herself, does not give his/her copyright away. If this was the case, it wouldn't be possible to make more advertisements on other websites. Here you find me too: [12]. I have the right to put my photos in different websites who have advertisments. None of them is the Copyrightholder. The websites only prohibit other people to take them and use them. If you find a photo elsewhere on the Web this does NOT automatically mean, the Wikimedia-Uploader took it from there. This is a common fallacy. The image can be his/her own and he/she put it there himself/herself. The advertisement in Quoka is my own advertisement showing my own photos of my own dog. In my experience OTRS usually answers very soon. The fact that you found my photo elsewhere on the Web was NO reason for an immediate deletion. I am here, if something is unclear to you, you can't first write a message to me, tell me what you found, so a can answer and give you the information you need for a decision. A respectful manner of treating the other person can make things a lot easier and more enjoyable for both sides.

I am associated with the company SINN Power and can assure you that there is the full right to use the referred image on Wikipedia and in Commons. While there might be some need to complete the copyright information, I had no way of reacting due to the Christmas holidays.

 Oppose Policy requires that for corporate logos to be hosted on Commons, an authorized official of the corporation must send a free license using OTRS. Note also that "the full right to use the referred image on Wikipedia and in Commons" is insufficient.

hi, I ask the following ripristinodel portrait by Eugen Hummel (1812-1845) around the thirties of the nineteenth century--87.8.55.226 21:30, 25 December 2017 (UTC)

 Info A3cb1 upload. Thuresson (talk) 03:31, 26 December 2017 (UTC)

Is this the image you are looking for? Lotje (talk) 06:39, 26 December 2017 (UTC)
no the source of the painting is this:

the original source of the file can no longer be visible due to damage to the site, so if by chance the file was restored this is one of the few sites to be helped for the following information concerning the painting and the artist's file --87.15.94.158 10:27, 26 December 2017 (UTC)

I would like to say that the name of the artist and the date of death are present in the source, and therefore it seems obvious to me that, seeing that the artist died more than two hundred years ago, he is able to declare that it is a PD license (excluded from copyright), mr Jeff, I do not understand his strong opposition, I just say that the file goes SEEN before firing the justifications in sight, look at the file and check if it is all in order with the copyright, ok? :)--87.15.94.158 14:38, 26 December 2017 (UTC)

 Support The uploader has been blocked as an abuser. I don't know and don't care about the circumstances which caused that. Notwithstanding that, this painting is clearly PD and does not appear among those in Category:Paintings of Ferdinand I of Austria, so why shouldn't we restore it? .     Jim . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 15:10, 26 December 2017 (UTC)

 Support Copyright status seems obviously OK. Identity of uploader shouldn't matter in a case where we don't need to assume good faith on their part -- if they made *some* helpful uploads, then by all means keep those. No reason to deprive the other projects of such files. Carl Lindberg (talk) 13:17, 28 December 2017 (UTC)


✓ Done: Per Jim and Carl. If we avoided hosting PD images just because a blocked user uploaded them, then theoretically they could prevent us from hosting a whole bunch of images just by their presence. I have restored the file and hidden the username from public display. I think this is the best approach to take in these circumstances. --Green Giant (talk) 15:03, 30 December 2017 (UTC)

/Users/carlos-enriqueruiz/Desktop/carlos-enrique-ruiz (foto en Wikipedia).jpg — Preceding unsigned comment added by Carlos-Enrique Ruiz (talk • contribs) 12:38, 28 December 2017‎ (UTC)

 Oppose The image has appeared elsewhere on the Web without a free license, so policy requires that the actual copyright holder must send a free license using OTRS. There is no reason given above why we should restore this image without that free license.

Policy also requires that users whose username is that of a famous person must confirm their identity by sending an image of an official identification (passport or driver's license, for example) using OTRS. This is true whether or not you are actually the Colombian poet, Carlos-Enrique Ruiz. see Commons:Username_policy#Usernames_requiring_identification. .     Jim . . .

De Minimis Files in Category:One Piece

Somes files were deleted

I am quoting the closure:

"DM does not apply if everything in the image is copyrighted. The test is that you must be able to remove the copyrighted item and the average observer would not notice. If you removed the copyrighted works from the last four of these, you would have a large white wall. .

There is no such 'test'. DM is about the subject, not about the fact someone consider as copyrighted sub-elements of the image. Subject is the subject, tables and supports are not copyrighted, so you'd get an empty stand / poster less and not a wall... Esby (talk) 22:35, 28 December 2017 (UTC)

 Oppose I closed the DR and wrote the words above. The essence of de minimis is that the copyrighted item or items must not matter to the image as a whole -- that, as I said, you could remove the copyrighted item(s) and still have an image that was useful for the same purpose as if they were present. That is clearly not the case when the image is filled with copyrighted items, some of them large. .     Jim . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 10:15, 29 December 2017 (UTC)

File:Felix von Sassen.jpg Das Bild von Felix von Sassen wurde von Christoph Mannhardt <studio@christophmannhardt.com> geschossen. Er hat der Nutzung des Bildes ausdrücklich zugestimmt. Die Freigabe liegt mir als E-MAil vor. --Philcomputing (talk) 14:33, 28 December 2017 (UTC)

 Oppose In order for the image to be restored, Mr. Mannhardt must send a free license using OTRS. Note that he must do this himself -- if you forward the email you have, it probably will not be accepted. The reason for that is that we have too many bad actors here who will forge permissions in order for images to appear on Commons..     Jim . . .

Please undelete Keith A. Noreika.jpg it was a public domain image from the U.S. federal Government

Is a federal government image in the public domain. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Hubbardbk (talk • contribs) 18:12, 28 December 2017‎ (UTC)

 Oppose It may be a PD image, but you did not provide the information necessary to determine that. You showed:

Source=Office of the Comptroller of the Currency
Author=Office of the Comptroller of the Currency

You must, instead, show the URL of the actual page from which the image came -- not the URL of the image, but the URL of the page on which it appears. Since Noreika is no longer acting Comptroller, the image has been taken down, so it is up to you to find it to find out who the photographer actually was. .     Jim . . .
