That media used to be published at http://www.krskstate.ru/government/members when Ryazanceva was Deputy Prime Minister of Krasnoyarsk Krai. The picture also published in mass media: http://www.trk7.ru/upload/iblock/ea5/ea5924418c1a0a36834bbbdc600235b1.jpg--Ab067 (talk) 02:28, 2 November 2018 (UTC)

@Ab067: Hello, Unfortunately Russia does not have the same legal stance when it comes to the works by the government as the United States. In Russia only laws, the documents, and a few other creations of the government are considered to be in public domain, all other works can be copyrighted. You can look at {{PD-RU-exempt}} for the list of what government works you can upload under the public domain. Therefore in this case the copyright owner is either the photographer oneself or the Office of Governor of Krasnoyarskiy kray (if they transferred the copyright). While there is an exemption in Russian law for educational purposes, such mandatory licences are not allowed on Commons. ℺ Gone Postal (〠 ✉ • ✍ ⏿) 04:56, 2 November 2018 (UTC)

File:SanDiegoChickenByPhilKonstantin.jpg

SanDiegoChickenByPhilKonstantin.jpg - I do not understand why the photo was removed. It is my personal photo. I took it myself. It is not a screen shot, or copy of anyone else's work. Ted came by the TV station where I worked at the time KUSI. I took the photo then. Look at all of the photos I have posted on my user page to confirm I did work there, and I took photos of lots of famous people.

I do not understand the logic behind deleting this photograph. The source and the author was clearly indicated. It is clear from the author's photo stream that the photographs do indeed belong to him and he has agreed to change the license to one acceptable to the Commons. Are we now deleting photographs given to us by authors for being reproduced on random blogs? Pinging Túrelio. Surtsicna (talk) 08:32, 19 November 2018 (UTC)

I may have just made a mistake by uploading another photograph under the name of the old one. Surtsicna (talk) 22:58, 19 November 2018 (UTC)

File:Pac-12 logo in Arizona colors.svg and File:Pac-12 logo in Washington State colors.svg

I am requesting the two files to be undeleted and taken to a discussion for deletion. They were too simple to be copyrighted, failing Commons:TOO. The File:Pac-12 logo.svg is copyrighted simply because it has gradients in it. Corky 22:05, 27 November 2018 (UTC)

Pingning @Túrelio: who is the deleting admin. Corky 22:06, 27 November 2018 (UTC)
  •  Oppose. Incorrect. A simple gradient is not even a creative element. The PAC 12 logo is copyrighted with registration #V3617D047. To say that these variations of the logo that differ only in color are somehow ineligible for copyright is absurd. By the way, Category:Pac-12 Conference logos needs to be cleaned out - the ten remaining shield logos are all flagrant copyvios as well.(Edit: I see this has been done. --B (talk) 12:33, 28 November 2018 (UTC)) --B (talk) 02:21, 28 November 2018 (UTC)

Please restore the following pages:

Reason: <f-word removed> Jcb, there are many users vote for keep, why you still delete it? 219.78.191.102 15:51, 28 November 2018 (UTC)

 Oppose - A DR is not a vote. This file was blatantly out of scope, no room for doubt. Also watch your language, you may get blocked if you communicate this way. Jcb (talk) 15:56, 28 November 2018 (UTC)
 Question Can this file be temporarily undeleted so this photo's educational use can be evaluated? I can't see the photo so I can't really say I support or oppose but three users saying that it was in scope is a bit persuasive. That being said, an IP using ad hominem against an admin is not a good idea. Abzeronow (talk) 16:09, 28 November 2018 (UTC)
@Abzeronow: Not an admin so I don't know about this particular image - the original flickr upload has been deleted - but this Flickr user's photos that were uploaded here seem to be just her vacation photos and some others seem to have little encyclopedic use. File:At the pool on Ibiza.jpg, File:Young woman wearing a bikini by the sea 20March2009.jpg, File:Blue Marlin Beach, Ibiza, Spain - young women in bikinis 13July2009.jpg, File:Kazantip in Ukraine, village Popovka.jpg, File:Maldives' Nymph.jpg, File:Female tourist in Maldives-crop.jpg, File:Azure evening at the swimming pool.jpg. I'm assuming this photo is similar and not really in scope. One of her photos - File:Russian Girl rides a Ostrich.jpg - is in use and File:Young woman wearing a bikini by the sea 20March2009.jpg looks to be of high enough quality that someone might find it useful sometime, but the others seem less useful. --B (talk) 17:16, 28 November 2018 (UTC)
It is a good question. If this photo is not to be restored on those grounds, a mass DR of the other files would also be in order. Abzeronow (talk) 19:51, 28 November 2018 (UTC)

Hi, sorry, I uploaded the image File:Flags of the Ivy League.jpg and then quickly decided to delete it, thinking I would pursue selling it as commercial stock. The stock agency declined to accept the image for copyright reasons, though, so I'd like to go ahead and contribute it to Wikimedia Commons as originally planned.

File:Beegees lifeinatincan reinterpreted.jpg

hello,

I'm seeking to reinstate my upload [by you].

It seems the reason it was deleted is because I incorrectly claimed the modified album cover as my own. I did not realise at the time that the original cover would still hold copyright, and thus chose the wrong option.

Is it possible to reinstate the image with the appropriate credit? I am not sure which license is applicable here, but certainly I do think the image is not violating any such copyrights if I give credit.

I would be happy to amend the caption of the image in order to assert the credit belongs to the Bee Gees, as I think that would be the missing requirement that necessitated the deletion.

Please advise.

File:Peru 1970 National Football Team (digital restoration).jpg

At Commons:Deletion requests/File:Peru 1970 National Football Team (digital restoration).jpg, the user Majora deleted an image of the Peru national football team from 1970 under the claim that the "Image was taken in Mexico not Peru." I request the restoration of the image because the reasoning does not match the copyright policy, which states that "all images published in Peru prior to 1976 [...] are in the public domain" (for a longer discussion on Peruvian Copyright policy, please see [9]). Therefore, it does not matter that the image was taken in Mexico, because the image was published in Peru (and there is no evidence whatsoever that the image was ever published in Mexico). Moreover, the discussion was largely favorable for keeping the image, as indicated by users Gone Postal and Patrick Rogel. It seems to me that Majora has made an erroneous decision that needs to be corrected. Thank you for your time and consideration.--MarshalN20 (talk) 15:18, 27 November 2018 (UTC)

It's an old story : File:Peru 1970 National Football Team.jpg has already been nominated in 2013 by @Túrelio: . Besides and since I'm notified, @MarshalN20: may you provide evidence that file has been "published in Peru prior to 1976"? --Patrick Rogel (talk) 16:18, 27 November 2018 (UTC)
When I last asked my contact in Peru, I was indicated that the image likely came from local sports magazines like Ovación or Peru Match, popular in the 1970s and '80s. Ovación still is active, albeit now focused in sports radio. I had in my possession a tiny calendar from 1973 that had this image on the reverse, but mine was worn out and incomplete. I uploaded the image after finding it complete at [10], which hosts a collection of nostalgic images from 1969-1985. Peruvian sports magazines often published these photographs without attributing the photographer, so there's several of them (such as [11] and [12]), whose author is anonymous. Sports journals were not considered important media back then, so few remain. Due to these circumstances, attempting to be any more specific is irrational.--MarshalN20 (talk) 18:12, 27 November 2018 (UTC)
Going by my calendar, at least 1973.--MarshalN20 (talk) 18:13, 27 November 2018 (UTC)
@MarshalN20: we need a proof of publication here. — Racconish 💬 18:39, 27 November 2018 (UTC)
@Racconish: Ovación, 18 July 1975, n. 71, Year III. The edition contained a collection of images and articles that were meant to praise Peru's national team, led by Teofilo Cubillas, and in relation to that year's Copa America tournament. I'm pretty sure the image is older than that, since I remember my calendar being from 1973, but then again the image in the calendar was pretty small (it was a pocket calendar).--MarshalN20 (talk) 21:16, 27 November 2018 (UTC)
First, this interpretation was always a novel approach to Peru's copyright laws as stated in the DR. Peru itself does not even have a relevant PD template, {{PD-Peru}} being deprecated. Second, how do we know that this was not published in Mexico, the country of origin, before it was published in Peru? --Majora (talk) 21:19, 27 November 2018 (UTC)
@Majora: First, this isn't a discussion on Peru's copyright law. That discussion has already taken place, and the consensus was that the information provided was verifiable and accurate. I am not going to engage in that discussion again unless you have any sort of actual evidence that forces the reconsideration of the prior discussion. Second, I have already provided a date and source for the image in question. That is all the burden of evidence requires of me. Do you have any evidence that the image was published in Mexico? I certainly cannot provide evidence on what doesn't exist. Thanks.--MarshalN20 (talk) 21:54, 27 November 2018 (UTC)
Is it exactly the same photo in Ovación? Ovación does not mention any credit or information at all about the source of the photo? Who published the calendar? Is it a 1973 calendar? The calendar does not mention any credit or information about the source of the photo? -- Asclepias (talk) 02:18, 28 November 2018 (UTC)
Hi. The 1973 calendar was from a local restaurant. It was basically a sort of advertisement for the establishment. I suppose that's not much of a fad nowadays. Sports magazines in Peru were deemed (and, arguably, still are deemed) as prensa barata (cheap media), so not much emphasis was placed back then in bothering with authorship. The publication is basically the author, and the photographer(s) likely just got some cash for each picture (or maybe they were in the magazine's payroll). Ovación did the same as the others.--MarshalN20 (talk) 04:44, 28 November 2018 (UTC)
@Racconish: I already placed here a link ([13]) where the matter was discussed in detail. The copyright law is here ([14]). The Peruvian government is Spanish-speaking, so there's no English translation to this text.--MarshalN20 (talk) 16:26, 28 November 2018 (UTC)
@MarshalN20: thanks. If I understand correctly, the 20 years protection of article 27 was subjected to the 2 conditions of article 58 which do no seem to have been respected here. In other words, this photographic work was not protected under the former law. — Racconish 💬 16:47, 28 November 2018 (UTC)
@Racconish: I'm sorry, but you are in effect not understanding correctly the Spanish used in the law. Article 57 pertains to Obras Fotograficas (Artistic Photographs), which specifically excludes sports photographs for 2 reasons listed in that same article. In reason a, it states that artistic photographs exclude "photographs made under contract" and, in reason c, it states that artistic photographs exclude "photographs of mere documentary character". The photograph in question was made both under contract and is of mere documentary character (there is nothing artistic about 11 men standing and kneeling, which is typical of football matches). Please, can we move past the silliness and restore the image?--MarshalN20 (talk) 17:11, 28 November 2018 (UTC)
I beg to differ. A posed group photograph used in a calendar is not a mere document deprived of creativity. In any case, either the photograph was "merely documentary", in which case it was not protected by copyright per article 57, or it was original enough to be protectable, but probably not effectively protected by lack of the mentions or article 58 (I say probably because we would need to check the original caption to make sure). Can we agree on that ? — Racconish 💬 17:34, 28 November 2018 (UTC)
@Racconish: Can the image please be restored? Information has already been provided that proves it is within the guidelines. What is preventing its restoration? Thanks.--MarshalN20 (talk) 22:33, 28 November 2018 (UTC)
You had argued in the previous undeletion request the situation was ruled by the transitional provisions of the 1996 law as a work having benefited from the 20 years protection of the 1961 law. I am not sure this applies here as it seems this work was never protected by the earlier law for the reasons I explained, and particularly so if it would be analysed as a documentary work as you claim. If these transitional provisions do not apply, I cannot see why the work would not be protected now by the 1996 law. — Racconish 💬 23:17, 28 November 2018 (UTC)
@Racconish: Article 57, section a, explicitly indicates that the publisher is the owner of the image. This is supported by Article 12, which indicates that works of anonymous authorship are owned by the publisher. Article 9 indicates that copyright is "born out of the creation of the work," and does not need any formal registry to be protected by the law. Article 27 indicates that photographs only have a 20 year protection. Therefore, I kindly again request that the image be restored. Thanks.--MarshalN20 (talk) 23:58, 28 November 2018 (UTC)
  •  Oppose MarshalN20 reasons as follows : (1) before the 1996 Peruvian copyright law [15], Peruvian copyright was ruled by the 1961 copyright law [16] ; (2) the 1961 copyright law provided in art. 27 a 20 years copyright for photographs ; (3) the "transitional provisions" of the 1996 law should not be interpreted as putting back into copyright works which have ceased to be protected by the 1961 law before the 1996 law came into force ; (4) therefore, photographs first published in Peru before 1976 remain in the public domain.
    I don't have a problem with (3), as this is a previous community consensus [17]. But I have a problem with (2).
    • If we consider this photograph as a documentary work, as claimed by MarshalN20, the protection of photographic works in art. 27 is not granted as specified in article 57c. In such case, this photograph was unprotected by the 1961 law and the transitional measures of the 1996 law, which apply only to works protected by the previous law, do not apply here.
    • If we consider this photograph as creative enough to be more than a mere document, we run into another difficulty : the protection of the 1961 law is conditioned by art. 58 to some necessary and cumulative mentions (mention of reserved rights, name of photograph or owner of copyright, year of creation, mention of prohibited reproduction). We cannot judge if these mentions were present or not in a caption, based on the cropped picture, but I deem it very likely they were not. In such case, we are again in a situation where the work was not protected by the 1961 law and the transitional measures cannot apply. — Racconish 💬 12:47, 29 November 2018 (UTC)
  • Article 9 of the 1961 Peruvian Copyright law indicates that all published works in Peru are protected by copyright, regardless of whether or not they were formally registered ([18]). Please restore the image.--MarshalN20 (talk) 18:28, 29 November 2018 (UTC)
    Documentary photographs did not qualify as "[creative] works" per article 57c. — Racconish 💬 18:53, 29 November 2018 (UTC)
    You're cherry-picking the argument. Article 57 explicitly only refers to "EL DERECHO EXCLUSIVO DEL FOTOGRAFO" ("The exclusive right of the photographer"). Article 57 has three sub-setions. Article 57, Section C, indicates that photographers cannot claim exclusive rights over photographs of mere documentary character. Placed within context, Article 57, Section A, indicates that "photographs made in fulfillment of an employment contract are under the exclusive copyright of the employer". This section makes no specific requirement as to whether a photograph is documentary or not. The copyright of the image, therefore, belongs to the magazine in question. Please stop playing mental gymnastics here to stubbornly keep this image deleted.--MarshalN20 (talk) 22:56, 29 November 2018 (UTC)
  • Article 57 only discusses "EL DERECHO EXCLUSIVO DEL FOTOGRAFO" (The Photographer's Exclusive Rights). ARTICLE 12 indicates that, for anonymous works, the publisher is the copyright owner. The photograph in question was published by Ovación, therefore they are the copyright owners. This copyright protection lasted for 20 years, according to Article 27.--MarshalN20 (talk) 18:34, 29 November 2018 (UTC)
    It is pointless to discuss who owned the rights of a work if it was not protected. — Racconish 💬 18:53, 29 November 2018 (UTC)
  • Support undeletion, assuming the photo was published in a Peruvian magazine or calendar in 1973. Articulo 58 says the copyright must be made visible in plain view along with the translation of the words "Prohibida la reproducción" (Reproduction prohibited), which the photo does not contain. You also have the argument it's of "mere documental character," which is possible but vague enough to be arguable. Furthermore there was no consensus for deletion in the first place. SportingFlyer (talk) 01:41, 1 December 2018 (UTC)
  •  Oppose Just in case this wasn't clear. DRs don't really work on consensus anyways, not completely. They work on copyright law. Plain and simple. I deleted this image because the country of origin is Mexico. Period. The fact that the photographer might have been Peruvian is completely and totally irrelevant to this conversation in my mind unless it can be proven that it was first published in Peru and not Mexico. And yes, it is the person that wants to keep the image's job to show that per COM:EVID. Since you have already admitted that that is impossible we have to assume that it was published in Mexico first and therefore Mexican copyright applies. Even if it was in the public domain in Peru, which I'm certainly not sure of, it is certainly not in Mexico where the photo was taken. As I've already stated, the best case scenario in this situation is that this is a truly anonymous work with a 50 year copyright. This intersection of multiple countries's copyright can be found in our licensing policy. I would love to have kept this photo. I dislike deleting photos that are actual useful but the photo doesn't qualify for hosting here as the copyright status is unclear. --Majora (talk) 01:56, 1 December 2018 (UTC)
  • There's no evidence whatsoever that this image was ever published in Mexico. You can't prove something without evidence.--MarshalN20 (talk) 14:09, 1 December 2018 (UTC)
  • The country of origin of a work is the country where it was first published. That's what the Berne Convention and most rules of the shorter term demand. There's no reason for Commons to use any other definition.--Prosfilaes (talk) 20:34, 3 December 2018 (UTC)
  •  Oppose It's plausible that this was first published in Mexico as part of some sort of press coverage of the 1970 World Cup. Even if it was first published in Peru, it seems to be hinging on a particularly adventurous interpretation of Peruvian copyright law. Majora's analysis is probably correct as it also fits Occam's Razor: photo was taken in Mexico and published in Mexico. Abzeronow (talk) 02:20, 1 December 2018 (UTC)
  • I've taken various photos of trips in Mexico and Peru. Not once have I ever published them in either country. Occam's Razor does not apply here if there is no proof of publication in Mexico.--MarshalN20 (talk) 14:12, 1 December 2018 (UTC)

Reason: Per this DR: Commons:Deletion_requests/Banknotes_of_Vietnam2, Vietnamese currency is publication + 50. These banknotes were published in 1966 and are public domain in Vietnam Abzeronow (talk) 21:56, 11 November 2018 (UTC)

@Abzeronow: Are they PD in the US? If so, why?   — Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me 17:41, 18 November 2018 (UTC)
Why would US copyright matter when copyright holder would have been the State Bank of Vietnam? Other UDRs of currency that has expired copyright in their country of origin have ignored any potential URAA issue. Abzeronow (talk) 17:52, 18 November 2018 (UTC)
 Support This type of legal tender was certainly avaible in the US exchange booths within 30 days after its first issue in Vietnam, so US copyright provisions would apply. However, as there is no copyright notice (see also File:20 xu mặt sau.jpg for comparison), it is a case of {{PD-US-no notice}}. De728631 (talk) 18:20, 18 November 2018 (UTC)
Would availability in United States exchange booths count as publication in the United States? It sounds like the same situation as a bookshop which sells foreign imported books. Anyway, money is probably often published in local information material long before entering circulation.
Also, why are references made to URAA? If they were published in 1966, then they were already in the public domain in Vietnam on the URAA date in 1998 (if the correct copyright term is 50 years from publication - {{PD-Vietnam}} suggests life+50 years). --Stefan2 (talk) 21:19, 18 November 2018 (UTC)
It's possible that the template has an omission. Other DRs of Vietnamese currency basically used publication + 50 as the baseline (this DR from 2011 Commons:Deletion requests/Banknotes of Vietnam said "Per Commons:Currency#Vietnam and List of countries' copyright length, coins and banknotes from Vietnam printed/made after Jauary 1, 1961 are copyrighted. " DR for these two files (in 2012) said "Per Commons:Currency#Vietnam and List of countries' copyright length, coins and banknotes from Vietnam printed/made after Jauary 1, 1962 are copyrighted.") Abzeronow (talk) 12:43, 19 November 2018 (UTC)
The quote states that banknotes which are more recent than 50 years are copyrighted. It does not necessarily mean that earlier banknotes are in the public domain. The user who wrote that could just have assumed that no banknotes were published after the death of the artist, or the user may have had author death information which was not stated there. For example, all Swedish pre-1916 coins are, to my knowledge, PD-old-100. --Stefan2 (talk) 13:58, 19 November 2018 (UTC)
Possible, but Occam's Razor would suggest that Vietnamese currency has a 50 year copyright window. Not sure if there is a known artist involved, these are banknotes which tend to be anonymous @Donald Trung: any possible information I'm missing? Abzeronow (talk) 20:25, 22 November 2018 (UTC)
From what I can tell the cut date is 50 (fifty) years as Vietnamese currency seems to have both different rules than Vietnamese government documents and private works of art, but I am in no means a copyright expert and mostly import images of Vietnamese coins between a thousand (1000) and hundred (100) years ago. I've mostly just been following Commons:Currency#Vietnam myself. --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 20:39, 22 November 2018 (UTC)

HEC 350W ATX power supply.jpg needs to be kept (and:: restored) because ATX-Netzteil.jpg is not there.

I've done some research and I have seen that "The Government of Catalonia authorises the reuse of content and data worldwide, with no time limit or restriction, in the terms established by Creative Commons CC0 [...]". Therefore, this image, published by the Government of Catalonia in its website, can be used under the terms of Creative Commons CC0.

It would appear that perhaps the Government of Catalonia might have had that photography studio's permission to use the photo on their website but not to authorize it as CC-0? Abzeronow (talk) 19:09, 4 December 2018 (UTC)
That is entirely possible. Moreover, at a second glance their licensing is quite contradictory. They cite CC0, but at the same time they demand that "the information is not altered or distorted". That's not how CC0 works: You either waive any and all rights which is irrevocable, or you don't use CC0 at all and keep some control of your content.

World War I posters...

Commons:Deletion_requests/Files_on_User:Martin_H./World_War_I_posters_in_the_Library_of_Congress_for_jpg_file_matches_to_"Rehse-Archiv" Please restore these posters by Alfred Offner, who died in 1947. They would now be public domain in the European Union. Obviously, they're PD-1923.

Pinging @Fæ: as a courtesy Abzeronow (talk) 02:15, 31 October 2018 (UTC)

Thanks, The way it was grouped in the DR made me think Offner was author of the second and third one. Apologies for the mistake on my part. Abzeronow (talk) 17:09, 3 November 2018 (UTC)
  •  Comment The third one is composed by two posters (only text...), both stating at the bottom something like „R. HELAEZ MÜNCHEN“ „D. RELAEZ. MÜNCHEN“ „R. HELAEZ MÜNCHEN“. „R. KELLER. MÜNCHEN“ or „R. HELLER. MÜNCHEN“. I cannot say. Strakhov (talk) 16:58, 3 November 2018 (UTC)
{{PD-text}}? http://www.loc.gov/pictures/item/2004666182 Abzeronow (talk) 17:09, 3 November 2018 (UTC)
  •  Comment The second one includes at the bottom right corner a monogram including at least the letter „T“, I think. Strakhov (talk) 17:02, 3 November 2018 (UTC)
  • Looking at Kohle ist Brot,[20] neither the Library of Congress, nor the Imperial War Museum have been able to identify the author, or interpret the monogram. All credible sources we can find seem to show the artist as "unknown" and credibly is unknowable. If the artist may or may not be Alfred Offner, the evidence seems sufficient, under a reasonable interpretation of German law, to find the work insufficiently attributed to have any potential claim of copyright. Just my 2c worth. --Fæ (talk) 17:04, 3 November 2018 (UTC)
If {{PD-EU-no author disclosure}} applies, then it could be undeleted. Otherwise, we might have to wait until approx. 2040 for it to age into {{PD-old-assumed}}. Abzeronow (talk) 18:00, 4 November 2018 (UTC)
The Imperial War Museum has a version with a high-resolution zoom tool to check the monogram. It looks like the letters OHT, but I so far I haven't found any graphic artists to match these initials. De728631 (talk) 22:32, 25 November 2018 (UTC)

@Yann: your concern of it being a selfie by Davidson has been addressed. The concern from B dash that the image was small has been addressed. Netcopyvio concerns have been addressed. Besides demotivating contributing photographers because, err, I really don't know why anyone would even want that, what is this still about? Why was it deleted again? - Alexis Jazz ping plz 21:34, 25 November 2018 (UTC)

 Oppose - see also Commons:Deletion requests/File:Pete Davidson.jpg - in the file that came to OTRS via Alexis Jazz it's absolutely invisible whether the picture is taken by the second depicted person (stated to be the uploader) or a third person. Alexis Jazz somehow convinced the uploader that they should contact Alexis Jazz rather than OTRS if they were concerned about their privacy, which is very bad of course. They did neither identify themself to the WMF nor sign the privacy agreement and I find it quite disruptive that Alexis Jazz is telling that it's unsafe to contact OTRS. Jcb (talk) 22:05, 25 November 2018 (UTC)
That's funny, I don't recall saying that.. Probably because I didn't. - Alexis Jazz ping plz 22:12, 25 November 2018 (UTC)
The uploader's talk page is filled with deletion notices, so I'd have a hard time accepting anything at face value. Evidence that the license is authentic could be something like, providing a less-cropped version of the photo than what is on the internet (even if they don't want to provide their face, they could just offer more than what you can get publicly on the internet) and include EXIF data, then provide another photo from the same camera, preferably taken on the same day in the same location. Whether that's provided to OTRS, provided directly on-wiki, or with the assistance of a helpful user like Alexis Jazz, the uploader needs to authenticate their authorship in some way. --B (talk) 19:44, 28 November 2018 (UTC)
  •  Oppose The copyright holder should contact COM:OTRS without proxy. If I did not trust CUs in a given project, I would not edit in that project at all. If someone cannot trust OTRS agents, maybe they should upload only files that do not need to go through OTRS procedure.

File:Chen during EXOrDIUM Concert 01.png and File:Chen during EXOrDIUM Concert 02.png

File:Chen during EXOrDIUM Concert 01.png and File:Chen during EXOrDIUM Concert 02.png were deleted as copyright violations by Yuval Y as copyright violations from http://ohxo.tistory.com/220. However, posts on that blog are licensed under {{Cc-by-4.0}}, which I pointed out to Yuval Y. He did not restore the files because a Google search showed that the images were widely found online and asserted that the pictures originated from here. As I pointed out in my response, the aforementioned link is a Tumblr account that posts content from various sources, which credits and links to the Twitter account of the blog owner. The Twitter account posts previews of photos that are then posted on the blog. The watermark "OXO" on the photos match the Twitter and blog name. The photo in this blog post includes "OXO" as well at the a watermark to the Twitter account handle. Nearly two weeks have passed and Yuval Y has not been active since.

There wasn't any solid evidence to determine that the blog was license laundering in the first place to justify speedy deletion, and the evidence I provided only bolsters the fact that the OXO blog is where the image originated. If these uploads match the images found on the blog, they should be restored. ℯxplicit 23:50, 2 December 2018 (UTC)

Files by Gonzalo Bilbao (1860-1938)

Please restore the following pages:

Reason: Recently @Strakhov: had posted a thread in the Village Pump Copyright section about the possibility that Spain's 1879 copyright law did not specify a January 1 date for when copyright protection ends. It might be possible that Spain is exactly 80 years p.m.a. for those who died before 1987. w:Gonzalo Bilbao (1860-1938) died on December 4, 1938. In the possibility that these might now be free from copyright protection now rather than January 1, I request undeletion. Might as well see if we can lighten the workload that will come around January 1. Abzeronow (talk) 16:32, 5 December 2018 (UTC)

 Support per nom. This is the "Village Pump/Copyright" discussion between me and @Clindberg: . The 1879 law, the one appliable for people who died before 1987 according to the 1996 law, said "80 years". I have started a similar undeletion request below. Strakhov (talk) 18:11, 5 December 2018 (UTC)
Technically, the 1987 law changed it, but also lowered the term (raised back to 70 in 1996). It's possible there was a law before 1987 which had the 80pma terms and "end of year" term endings, but we haven't found it -- the original 1879 law did not, so would have expired on the anniversary of the death itself. It's possible there was an amendment at some point during the 20th century which changed that, but nobody has brought one to light, so...  Support. Although if any of these are post-1923, they would still be Not-PD-US-URAA. Carl Lindberg (talk) 21:24, 5 December 2018 (UTC)

@Racconish: File:First 8K Video from Space - Ultra HD VP9.webm was uploaded 3 hours after File:First 8K Video from Space - Ultra HD.webm I think? But the latter is probably VP8.

"My" VP9 version is the original Youtube coding without recompressing, only new muxing on my private computer. Later i've seen that a VP8 version exists, but Video2Commons recompresses the video, so the quality theoretically deteriorates. On my comparison the VP9 seems to be "smoother" compressed while the VP8 looks a bit grainier (only visible at 100 %). I don't know, if Video2Commons adds this grain or the grain is original and was removed from Google's VP9 compressor. Somebody may download NASA's original MP4 and compare with it. --Ras67 (talk) 15:17, 30 November 2018 (UTC)
@Ras67: I think Video2Commons has been changed recently. VP9 now appears to be the default and YouTube gets imported so fast I'm not sure Video2Commons is still recompressing it. - Alexis Jazz ping plz 20:42, 1 December 2018 (UTC)

De728631 Thuresson I can`t understand the logical behind wikirules / wikicommonsrules. If the image shouldn't be a problem because the logo is really simple and would qualify for {{PD-textlogo}}, why undeletion request can't solve in a positive way? Why user who have authorization to "control and solve" that kind of little problems do not really help and always punish? For Eurohelp, Author or the logo, there is a real interest into share the logo, make it public and get an association image-name, can't be any doubts about authorship or origin (www.eurphelp.es) Any way re-upload the image in the correct way, (Published earlier without a free license) is motive of punishment too.

Fotografie Rudolfa Kaisera českého loutkáře

Rudolf Kaiser byl můj děd, zasloužil se o položení základů československého loutkářství, z tohoto důvodu se domnívám, že si zaslouží, aby jeho osobnost a jeho památka byla zachována i dalším generacím. Hrál se svým divadlem po celou dobu mezinárodní výstavy 1929 v Praze na výstavišti. Během této výstavy byla ustanovena mezinárodní loutkářská organizace UNIMA. Zastupoval profesionální lidové loutkáře. Byl im meroriam vyznamenám za československé loutkářství a přece dodnes sedí v české republice v čele loutkoherecké sekce divadelní fakulty, žena činná v komunistickém režimu a která dosud nehodlá uznat zásluhy Rudolfa Kaisera a jeho rodiny. Také dle našeho názoru není objektivní k zásluhám Prof.Dr. Jindřicha Veselého a Prof. Josefa Skupy. Prostě ještě v naší zemi na některých místech existují totalitní struktury. Nikde stránkách divadelních portálů jsme fotografie našeho dědy ani následovníků nenašli. Z tohoto důvodu dáváme k dispozici soukromou fotografii Rudolfa Kaisera. Zároveň tuto fotografii použijeme v článku, který bude napsán v blogu na portálu idnes.cz --ArtKaiser (talk) 18:06, 17 November 2018 (UTC)

File:Stephanie Horne.jpg

The image that was deleted is the official portrait released by the Adkins-Horne campaign, to which Stephanie Horne is running as Lt. Governor. Not only has the campaign made it publically available (see: RockyForKy.com), media outlets have used it across Kentucky (see: https://www.kentucky.com/news/politics-government/article221588695.html). The deletion suggested that the photo was copyrighted because Stephanie Horne used the photo in her Twitter profile picture, that is ludicrous. Of course an elected official/candidate would use their publically available portrait as their profile picture, they want a cohesive image, which is why they would have no problem with Wikipedia using the same article.

--Spexer99 (talk) 03:40, 7 December 2018 (UTC)Spexer99 12/06/18

@Spexer99: That's not how it works here and we are not a media outlet. In order to be here it must be under a copyright license that allows anyone to use or modify the image, at any time, and for any purpose (including commercial reuse). That image clearly was not under a license we accept and therefore it was a copyright violation. You claiming it was under cc-by-sa-4.0 was also a blatant lie. Please do not mislicense photographs. In order to be here we either need an explicit statement on a public website saying that the copyright holder, which is generally the photographer not the person in the photo, has released it under an acceptable license or the copyright holder needs to fill out the form located at COM:ET and send it into our OTRS team. As it stands, the image is simply not going to be restored. --Majora (talk) 03:44, 7 December 2018 (UTC)

File:Nicholas van Hoogstraten in 1988.jpg

I think this file has a CC licence and should not have been deleted. I took the file "Marie Jahoda and Nicholas van Hoogstraten appearing on 'After Dark' with host Henry Kelly" in Category "After Dark", that was used in the article "Nicholas van Hoogstraten", and cropped the image to make it more specific about the subject. I then uploaded the cropped image file back into the same category, changed the file name, and then swapped it with the original file in the article about Nicholas van Hoogstraten. The original file noted its CC licence allowing unrestricted use, and I referred to that licence in the new file. I am, therefore, not sure why the newly created file has been deleted.

File:ScottHarper portrait.jpg

Hi, I had uploaded this image for the article on composer Scott Harper, however that article was removed by Speedy Deletion. I rewrote the article strictly following the guidelines of living biographies, and the article is now here to stay. It has been assessed as a Start-Class from a stub article. Please see the Wikipedia article here: Scott Harper (composer)

May I request for the image, the portrait of the composer Scott Harper to be undeleted so that I may include it in the article? File:ScottHarper portrait.jpg It is the only image I have been able to source that is public domain of the composer.

Thank you for your help. --Olivettilly (talk) 02:20, 8 December 2018 (UTC)

File:Research_resources.pdf

The admin deleted this within 10 seconds of me uploading it, they didn't even review it to understand anything about it! What can I do to make this better??

I uploaded a pdf of industry search sites that are incredibly useful for research to the OEM Manufacturing industry. The OEM Manufacturing industry is the most under-represented industry on the internet, but accounts for being the financial backbone of many countries!

I encourage you to search for OEM products using Google, Bing or Yahoo - they are a paid advertiser who will list anything slightly relevant, which makes it useless to engineers and market research analysts.

Can you reconsider? Actually try searching for OEM Manufacturers... you won't have any search results worth your time if you are a $100k+ engineer. I thought this site was for research but then again schools discredit Wikipedia and Wiki(anything) for any citations! How can your site exist to only reference other pages? I feel that your admins generally have no idea what resources are even valuable! It's like a school librarian, some are genius while some are.. not ever going to finish their 2 year degree in 10 years.

Where are the real references? I have a 12 year education and I'm sure I am more qualified to judge a resource in the OEM industry

You didn't even have time to look at the first entry before deleting it!

Your decision comes off as severely foolish and I'd like you to prove me wrong, give me evidence that you know what you were doing when you deleted that resource. Give me a reason and I'll make it better according to your standards!

Can you reconsider? I know you didn't look at it! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sknate (talk • contribs) 07:38, 9 December 2018 (UTC)

Hmmm, Admin shopping are we? Again, Commons is not the Yellow Pages, not Wikipedia, and not an OEM-Tradeshow. Nobody effing cares about you throwing $ signs around. That's way too cheap. Sic! Obviously you haven't read Com:Scope before uploading. I know you didn't look at it. Speedy close. --Hedwig in Washington (mail?) 07:56, 9 December 2018 (UTC)
Insulting me will not help your case either. --Hedwig in Washington (mail?) 08:05, 9 December 2018 (UTC)

Your 10 second rationality is an insult to yourself, none needed from me! Thought I'd help your site build a resource that might keep you employed... but I bet your life is so interesting, which is why you probably do this for free. Keep maintaining this garbage pile! Bots will make you really lonely one day. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sknate (talk • contribs) 08:24, 9 December 2018 (UTC)

File:Mimiko-inauguration.jpg

This photo is my work. I took it at Governor Olusegun Mimiko's inauguration in Febuary 2013. I was his official photographer from 2010 till date. I was a staff of the government at the time. A wikipedia user interested in Mimiko's profile (two of them in fact, one is a student in Ekpoma university and another a graduate student in Germany) notified us of the need to add photos to the governor's profile.

One of them had added the photo and it was removed because the reference to Flickr profile of the Mimiko Campaign Organisation was considered "not evidence of copyright ownership".

I, Sam Olusegun took the photo and I had added it to Wikipedia by myself. I have a whole gallery of photos to add to Wikipedia from Ondo State and about the governor. I wish to request that the photo is undeleted.

File:A soldier in a lunatic asylum. Lithograph by Conrad Felixmüller.jpg

This image was deleted for "license laundering", but it's freely licensed by Wellcome Collection. I don't know of any reason to doubt that they own the rights to have permission to license the work. clpo13(talk) 17:52, 10 December 2018 (UTC)

  •  Oppose @Clpo13: the copyright (as opposed to the physical artwork itself) is likely owned by Conrad Felixmülle's descendants, unless it was contractually transferred to the museum at some point in time. (This is unlikely and not typical.) In Germany the copyright is life + 70, so the copyright will not expire until after 2047. The Museum's permission to use their scan or photograph of a two-dimensional object is irrelevant - what really matters is who owns the copyright of the artwork itself. --B (talk) 18:33, 10 December 2018 (UTC)
@Clpo13: that is very strange. Do you know how they could have turned a work from an author who died in 1977 into CC BY (and bonus question: why are they using the same licence for works obivously in the public domain?), it's would be very unusual (but also very interresting) for a museum to have purchased the copyright of a work. Until there is more explanation, I  Oppose. Cheers, VIGNERON (talk) 18:39, 10 December 2018 (UTC)
@B and VIGNERON: According to [34], Wellcome tries to get permission from copyright holders for free use (my mistake for saying "own" originally). Wellcome will put non-commercial or non-derivative restrictions on images if the copyright holders insist upon it (see Commons:Deletion requests/Files in Category:AIDS Poster from Wellcome Images (check needed) and Commons:Deletion requests/Files in Category:Wellcome DR request for RAMC), so in this case, I think it's safe to assume that Wellcome does have permission from the copyright holders, since the image is CC BY. As for VIGNERON's question about applying CC BY to obviously public domain works, while exact digital reproductions of PD works are public domain in the United States per en:Bridgeman Art Library v. Corel Corp. (and by extension on Commons with {{PD-art}}), that is not the case in the UK and elsewhere (see en:Sweat of the brow#United Kingdom and en:National Portrait Gallery and Wikimedia Foundation copyright dispute). clpo13(talk) 19:16, 10 December 2018 (UTC)
@Clpo13: Oh, thanks for sharing that's indeed interresting and unusual, I will have to read it more carefully but it seems to be ok. @Mutter Erde and Well-Informed Optimist: what do you think? Cheers, VIGNERON (talk) 19:27, 10 December 2018 (UTC)
@Clpo13: I'd feel better about this particular image if someone wrote to them and they said "yes, we have contacted the heir of Conrad Felixmülle and he agreed to the CC license". I'm not hugely convinced just from reading this since they do say "However, we cannot guarantee to have traced or contacted every potential rights-holder." --B (talk) 19:30, 10 December 2018 (UTC)
It's a typical disclaimer for sites with content that has unclear license status. --Well-Informed Optimist (talk) 05:11, 11 December 2018 (UTC)
The disclaimer specifically says In order to reduce the risk to rights-holders, all potentially in-copyright material that we have put online is made available under a non-commercial licence.. If this has a free license, it means the rights-holders must have agreed to it. clpo13(talk) 18:43, 11 December 2018 (UTC)

File:Junoflo SXSW 2018.jpg

I took the photo myself, and missed the Request to Delete to discuss it. Although it is not very good quality, it is the only one currently available for use on the Wikipedia page for Junoflo (rapper).--Bonnielou2013 (talk) 11:43, 9 December 2018 (UTC) I found the reason given on the Deletion log..."This image is a screenshot of a non-free program or other copyrighted material. Although the image may be usable in certain circumstances under the doctrine of fair use, fair use claims are never allowed on Commons: see COM:FU. This file may be deleted without further notice.".......which seems to indicate I took a screenshot of some program. The photo showed my camera details and is the same Samsung phone camera I always use. The stage lighting was not good and none of the photos for his stage came out very good for me. The photo was also not of a large screen, it was a photo taken of the stage and performer directly.--Bonnielou2013 (talk) 12:05, 9 December 2018 (UTC)

 Oppose While you may have taken the photograph, it looks like you took a screenshot off a TV. In this case, the original TV show is copyrighted too and you are not allowed to republish any such photos without consent from the TV station or the show's producer. Please see our guideline about derivative works. De728631 (talk) 14:36, 9 December 2018 (UTC) I just read your statement in the section right above. If you took these two images at a live show, I think we can undelete them. De728631 (talk) 14:39, 9 December 2018 (UTC)

Thanks for looking. No, the photos are not taken of a screen or jumbotron but of the actual performer directly. The venue, The Belmont in Austin, Texas at SXSW, see K-pop event: Korea Spotlight has a small outdoor stage and no screens...the audience is in the hundreds. For some reason some of the lighting from the stage seemed to come from the back of the performers. This photo of mine File:DRR Live SXSW 2018.jpg was also deleted and you can see the contrast of a professional photographer who was standing just below the stage [35]. I am trying to get her to donate more of her work to Commons. As I said, the quality of the Junoflos photos, taken on my Samsung camera phone, in poor lighting, is not the best, but they are authentic.--Bonnielou2013 (talk) 00:08, 10 December 2018 (UTC)

File:Lou Rosenblum with Jewish activists in Moscow May 1974.jpg

Thank you to Mr. Rogel for noticing this photo appeared elsewhere on the internet. The other page on which it appears (norighttoleave.com) used the photograph without requesting permission from us. We would certainly have allowed them to use it if asked however. Unfortunately, that website has no contact information readily available so we could not discuss this with the authors. In any case we own this photo. It was taken by the wife of Aleksandr Lunts (with Lou Rosenblum's camera) during Lou Rosenblum's visit to the former Soviet Union in May 1974. The photo was remarkable for several reasons and rightfully should be included on this webpage. First, it shows a rare meeting of the Jewish emigration activists of Moscow, specifically to discuss tactics with Rosenblum, with whom they had been in touch but never met prior to this visit. Second, it shows Anatoly Sharansky before his arrest for treason in the same photo with Leonid Tsypin. Tsypin and Sanya Lipavsky, working for the KGB, denounced Sharansky and accused him of treason shortly after this photo was taken. This meeting with Rosenblum was one of the pieces of evidence listed against Sharansky in his treason trial. Copies of Rosenblum's photos, recordings, and documents are deposited with his papers at the Western Reserve Historical Society. All of his photos have been given to me for use and belong to me. We felt that this particular photo was an important one for the wiki page.

Thank you very much for your attention. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Shosh2 (talk • contribs) 15:33, 16 December 2018 (UTC) Sorry. Forgot to sign.Shosh2 (talk) 15:40, 16 December 2018 (UTC)

Also, the uploader has verified via OTRS their identity as a representative of the Nigerian Tourism Development Corporation, which should resolve most copyright concerns. Guanaco (talk) 17:14, 11 October 2018 (UTC)

Please see homepage of Nigerian Tourism Development Corporation [41], Point 3: “Unless expressly stated otherwise, you may not reproduce, modify, disseminate or otherwise exploit our Content in any way or form without our prior express approval. ... Nigerian Tourism Development Corporation trademarks and Tour Nigeria logos may only be used in conjunction with goods produced by Nigerian Tourism Development Corporation or with the express prior approval of Nigerian Tourism Development Corporation For the avoidance of doubt, the Nigerian Tourism Development Corporation corporate logo may only be used by Nigerian Tourism Development Corporation.” and also com:L and com:advert. --Hystrix (talk) 02:17, 12 October 2018 (UTC)
Yes, but since the account is verified, dual-licensing applies and should be good. --Jonatan Svensson Glad (talk) 03:57, 12 October 2018 (UTC)
As for the mention of COM:advert it links to the section that the file must be realistically useful for an educational purpose. Simply stating that something is an advertisement is not sufficient reason to delete it. That section is intended to say that advertisements are not automatically useful, not that they are automatically unuseful. ℺ Gone Postal (〠 ✉ ✍ ⏿) 11:32, 12 October 2018 (UTC)
@Guanaco: the e-mail to OTRS contains only the permission for the user account (NTDC). All photos are missing the name of the photographer. Some were previously published on Instagram. If NTDC is the rightholder, a permission must be shared for all photos. (Die E-Mail an OTRS enthält nur die Genehmigung für das User-Konto Nigerian Tourism Development Corporation (NTDC). Bei allen Fotos fehlt der Name des Fotografen. Einige wurden zuvor auf Instagram veröffentlcht. Wenn NTDC Rechteinhaber ist, muss eine Freigabe für alle Fotos erfolgen.) Hystrix (talk) 20:06, 12 October 2018 (UTC)
@Hystrix: These should be OK if they were not previously published elsewhere, or if the EXIF data is consistent. The logo should also be OK. That's the point to have a verified account. Regards, Yann (talk) 05:37, 14 October 2018 (UTC)
The logo is restored. However, the photos are so different that they probably come from different photographers or websites. There is currently no approval. EXIF data are not available on any photo. (Das Logo ist wiederhergestellt. Die Fotos allerdings sind so unterschiedlich, dass sie vermutlich von verschiedenen Fotografen oder Webseiten stammen. Es gibt derzeit keine Genehmigung.

Reason: It has been tagged with {{Npd}} by User:Mitte27 most probably by mistake (see Commons:Deletion requests/File:Carmen Finale.jpg as another example). It has a valid OTRS ticket (ticket:2009122810016222). If there is any issue with this file, it should be clearly explained in a regular DR. 4nn1l2 (talk) 01:06, 3 November 2018 (UTC)

4nn1l2 (talk) 01:48, 3 November 2018 (UTC)

 Oppose - I don't think these OTRS tickets should ever have been accepted. The permission comes from the organizer of the event, apparently not from the photographers. Jcb (talk) 10:12, 3 November 2018 (UTC)
I added five other files to the list. Each file should be evaluated separately, preferably in a regular DR. For example, see ticket:2009122810016357 in which the customer has stressed they are both the designer and the photographer. 4nn1l2 (talk) 12:38, 3 November 2018 (UTC)

  •  Comment @4nn1l2: What is the basis for believing that [50] is either a valid license from The Huntington or is a public domain photo? I think that there are three categories of photos in their flickr feed: (a) PD or otherwise free photos they collected from elsewhere -  Support restoration but they should be properly credited and not credit huntingtontheatreco, (b)  Support photos of performances in their theater - from spot checking the flickr feed, these have the same EXIF data so presumably these licenses are legitimate, (c)  Oppose photos of unknown origin or that are obviously publicity stills like [51] or that explicitly credit a third party like [52] - these are highly unlikely to be valid licenses and should stay deleted. --B (talk) 18:45, 10 December 2018 (UTC)
    @B: File:Soldiers-stairs (7096386073).jpg [53] is in the public domain. Please see [54]. Library of Congress is superb, but maybe better sources can be found here. I agree with your analysis. 4nn1l2 (talk) 19:18, 10 December 2018 (UTC)
    Actually, this particular photo has already been uploaded to Commons: File:Civil-War-US-Army-band.jpeg. 4nn1l2 (talk) 19:24, 10 December 2018 (UTC)
    @B: most of the photos from The Huntington were categorized by photographer. I sank many, many, many, many, many, many hours into that. The Digital Content Manager from the Huntington Theatre Company also responded in the DR and they adjusted the license for many, many, many photos in their Flickr stream. Per 4nn1l2, File:Soldiers-stairs (7096386073).jpg can be redirected to File:Civil-War-US-Army-band.jpeg. Based on its location in the Flickr stream, I knew it would almost certainly be PD. And as it turns out, it is. It's simply luck the file wasn't redirected before the DR was closed, else File:Civil-War-US-Army-band.jpeg would have been deleted. - Alexis Jazz ping plz 23:02, 10 December 2018 (UTC)

Commons:Deletion requests/File:Tyunik Ksenia - 1.jpg

Well, I deleted it because the authorship is as minimum unclear. And even if the author is a relative to the uploader, we would need an OTRS-release. --JuTa 16:35, 10 December 2018 (UTC)
I thought it was self-promotion from the “official” account. Now the image is out of scope because the depicted person is not notable. --Well-Informed Optimist (talk) 16:40, 10 December 2018 (UTC)
Fair enough. Not notable as the reason would be rational enough. I do see her winning 'Best Lawyer of 2017' award and some other awards as well, but I am unsure how selective they are. As for unclear authorship, I never heard of a policy disallowing photographs of relatives or requiring OTRS, can someboy point me to it.

  • @Chiwilkson: I'm not familiar with what history there is here, but a flickr account with only seven uploads generally needs to be authenticated somewhere as actually belonging to the photographer. Is it referenced from Naomi McKenzie's website? (This is for the protection of photographers - so that someone can't just make a flickr account and claim to "license" someone else's photos.) --B (talk) 12:45, 14 December 2018 (UTC)
  •  Support I advised the requester in this case when they originally posted an undeletion request regarding this image. I asked them to ask the flickr user to upload it again with EXIF data and with an acceptable license. The correct version can be found here (not at the link given) and has {{CC0}} as the license. That along with the fact that I can't find any evidence that it was uploaded to external sites prior to the date stated on flickr (only mirror sites from the original upload here) have assured my concerns. --Majora (talk) 21:38, 15 December 2018 (UTC)

Files uploaded by Aspahbod

In the deletion request here a person said that "No indication of own work on any of these" images, but the user's page on English wikipedia [55] shows they claimed them as own work and have a consistent artistic style.

Ellin Beltz (talk) 18:24, 20 November 2018 (UTC)
I'm not trying to restore that image, or any similar photo. Everything I'm requesting to be undeleted is a CGI drawing made by Aspahbod, as evidenced by the png extension. Streamline8988 (talk) 01:26, 21 November 2018 (UTC)
_DSC1171.jpg is evidently a photo. Ellin shouldn’t bundle photographs with images of unclear genesis, at least some distinction had to be explicated on the delreq – it could conserve a lot of time for Commoners. Incnis Mrsi (talk) 17:34, 1 December 2018 (UTC)
- Alexis Jazz ping plz 17:45, 1 December 2018 (UTC)
@Alexis Jazz: didn’t you notice the word “Raad” in Ellin’s post? Why do you expect to find any wrongly deleted media among nineteen JPEGs listed on 17:45, 1 December 2018 (UTC)? License reviewers can make mistakes. Incnis Mrsi (talk) 19:00, 1 December 2018 (UTC)
Read the deletion request and understood that Ellin misinformed the community about files to be deleted – not every file was claimed by Aspahbod for themselves. Also, deletion by Steinsplitter was rather irresponsible – he didn’t check Ellin’s allegations. An exemplary poor job by two Commons sysops. Incnis Mrsi (talk) 19:11, 1 December 2018 (UTC)

After deleting this file (Commons:Deletion requests/File:Lenz Klára 00.jpg) the user uploaded this file to Hungarian Wikipédia: hu:Fájl:Lenz Klára 00.jpg. He claims that this photo was made in Venezuela after her emigrating to there, the end of the 1940s (see the article of en:Klára Lenz for details). She was born in 1924, so I think this statement is true. And if the photo was made in Venezuela, it is in public domain due the {{PD-Venezuela}}.

  •  Oppose Ticket:2018102910006138 is in process by an OTRS volunteer. You should be patient, and correspondence should continue via email. Please note that OTRS has a backlog of 30 days, and you have been lucky to receive a response within a week. Nevertheless, it may take some time (maybe months) to process the ticket completely, because OTRS is entirely staffed by volunteers and is shorthanded. Thanks for your understanding. 4nn1l2 (talk) 19:51, 2 December 2018 (UTC)

En queue is 170 days. I see the ticket in the fi queue Ticket:2018110510009544. I can tell you now that a gmail e-mail address is going to be a stumbling block - the whole purpose is to validate that the permission is correct, anyone can create any unused gmail address in seconds - your best option might be to put it on your web site (add the logo from https://creativecommons.org/choose/results-one?license_code=by-sa&jurisdiction=&version=4.0&lang=en) so long as that web site can be properly traced to you.

@Jeff G.: The 300 day backlog doesn't meant that it takes that long to solve new tickets in the Finnish queue. Maybe there is one problematic ticket that has been abandoned and it makes the backlog seem so long.

File:Google Chrome icon (September 2014).svg

IMO clear {{PD-shape}}; especially because of high TOO in USA. @Racconish: can you elaborate why do you think that this logo is copyrightable in USA? Ankry (talk) 15:49, 23 December 2018 (UTC)

This logo is the result of a complex design process led by designer Steve Rura : "Redesigning the icon was very much a group effort. Collectively, we explored many variations, tried the icon in several different contexts, and refined the details as we moved along. It was important to maintain consistency across all media, so we kept print, web, and other possible formats in mind. Once we arrived at a good place, we finished up the icon by resizing, pixel-pushing, and getting everything out the door" [59]. See also here and here. It seemed obvious to me this was a matter of SD, but if you still disagree, I have no problem in undeleting the file and starting a regular DR. — Racconish 💬 16:09, 23 December 2018 (UTC)

‪File:Professor Lila Kari.jpg

Hello,

A photo — ‪File:Professor Lila Kari.jpg — that I uploaded on December 17, 2018 was deleted because it was deemed to be in violation of copyright. I took the photo of Professor Lila Kari and I indicated that I had taken it when I uploaded it to Wikipedia Commons.

The photo has been used elsewhere (on Lila Kari's faculty profile page at the University of Waterloo's David R. Cheriton School of Computer Science).

Could it please be restored? If not, I'll take another photo of her, but I'm sure you can appreciate that professors are busy and getting a photo in the first place took some time and coordination.

File:Ragnar Holte.jpg

The photo was taken before 1969 and are therefor free according to Swedish law, see {{PD-Sweden-1969}}. And the photographer was Swedish, so the Swedish copyright law is applicable.Yger (talk) 08:01, 22 December 2018 (UTC)

 Question any evidence that the photo was published before March 1989? The US copyright status depends on initial publication date/country. Unpublished photos are copyrighted 70 pma or (for unknown authors) 120 years since creation and their PD status in Sweden is irrelevant then. Ankry (talk) 16:34, 23 December 2018 (UTC)
On the discussion page there seemed to be consensus it is taken some year before 1969, as there exist photos taken nearby in time showing the same aging. I can describe these again if necessary. I can also show it is taken in Sweden (by a Swede) if needed. The license {{PD-Sweden-1969}} has been used by some 10000 pictures as yet with no problems earlier. Yger (talk) 19:15, 23 December 2018 (UTC)
The Swedish license template is definitely valid here. But if you read it carefully, you will see that it states: "You must also include a United States public domain tag to indicate why this work is in the public domain in the United States". And the US copyright status is a real problem here: US copyright depends on publication date. If the photo was not published, it may be still copyrighted in US even 120 years since creation (eg. if the author is unknown). Ankry (talk) 22:55, 25 December 2018 (UTC)
Is not {{PD-1996}} valid here? Otherwise I believe it has been published. When Ragnar Holte became professor in 1966 he was a very public person and many articles was published with photos. And as he kept this in his photo album (I have got access to it from his daughter) which for me indicate he liked this, and would then wanted it to be used even in 1966. But if it was used in the Unversity yearbook, local papers to illustrate article written by him, these sources are not easily accessed on-line. In the main newspaper a sister photo was used in https://www.svd.se/arkiv/1966-06-04/14. Yger (talk) 09:29, 26 December 2018 (UTC)

@Jeff G.: I can understand why you would prefer the alternative for an encyclopedic article on this painting. But to illustrate the meaning of words, it can be quite helpful if some colors are enhanced. Art history is not an issue in this case. As far as I know, projects are free to use the pictures they like without the necessity to show consensus. The relevant rule here is Commons' policy stating that a picture should be kept when realistically useful for an educational purpose. This picture is.--MarcoSwart (talk) 15:41, 23 December 2018 (UTC)
@MarcoSwart: The only use there was in wikt:nl:schilderij to show an example of a painting (by great Dutch painter Rembrandt van rijn), but the false colors of disingenuous Jan Arkesteijn should not be used to venerate Rembrandt.

  •  Oppose AFAIK Wiktionary is an educational media project, not the Daily Mail or Fox News or some other organisation that lies to its readers/viewers. Was the image used elsewhere than on the "painting" dictionary entry? You aren't seriously claiming that this one JPG is the only suitable illustration of "painting" for a dictionary -- and a JPG that has been altered so it no longer looks like an oil-on-canvas painting from the 17th century, but something created yesterday on a computer and printed on an inkjet on Xerox copy paper. Seriously, are we being trolled? -- Colin (talk) 19:01, 23 December 2018 (UTC)

File:Nations Cup London Winner Team Germany.jpg

I am pretty sure the file was under a correct license. Maybe the license was just valid in Germany as the picture was imported from the German Wikipedia. If this is the case, the picture should be imported back to the German Wikipedia. -- M-B (talk) 15:20, 24 December 2018 (UTC)

The license was OK and source was given as own work. The file was deleted because it was previously published on a news Web site. In such cases, we require the copyright holder (usually the photographer) to send permission to COM:OTRS. Once it has been confirmed that the photograph was indeed released under a free license, it will be undeleted. This will take a few weeks, because OTRS is a volunteer project and perpetually understaffed and overworked. --rimshottalk 22:31, 24 December 2018 (UTC)

Bruno Motta

01 fundo brancoPEQ.jpg: I don't know what it is, but Brunomotta's identity was verified by OTRS (ticket:2018060610008008) and the image was "Feito por Mim" ("made by me"). BrunoZé03pq.JPG should be looked at by Racconish later today. For BrunoImproRiso3peq.JPG I would request undeletion for evalutation. - Alexis Jazz ping plz 13:24, 19 December 2018 (UTC)

  •  Oppose See here. I'm afraid the OTRS ticket relates only to the identity of the uploader. Bruno Motta, the sitter of these copyrighted photographs, does not own the right to license them under CC0; and it would be very strange that three different photographers of the same sitter would have released their pictures under the same ticket. — Racconish 💬 16:53, 19 December 2018 (UTC)

As far as I can see, ticket 2018060610008008 is currently used 3 times in the project, but only once by an OTRS agent:

On the other hand,

@Ninjastrikers and Jotzet: FYI. — Racconish 💬 10:02, 22 December 2018 (UTC)

Although Brunomotta's identity is confirmed with Ticket:2018060610008008, the ticket is only valid for File:Bruno Motta.jpg. Ninja✮Strikers «☎» 10:55, 22 December 2018 (UTC)
Pinging @Sphilbrick. - Alexis Jazz ping plz 12:20, 22 December 2018 (UTC)
Thanks for the ping. I just can't help myself, but all in all it looks like a license laundering cannot be excluded ([67]). So the flickr account in question was probably created only after the second deletion of File:BrunoZé03pq.JPG on Commons in July 2009 ([68]). For reasons of legal security, each individual image seems to require an OTRS-confirmed individual release from the different authors. A license only granted by the person portrayed ([69]) should not be sufficient in these cases. --Jotzet (talk) 11:16, 23 December 2018 (UTC)

File:Swiatprzychodni.pl-logo-amp.png

I believe the file has been deleted against the rules. In this case a "mistake" should not be a reason for speedy deletion. First of all the the person who deleted should not base the actions only on suspicions. Second of all, the file does not represent creative content, so its not protected by copyright laws (although it might be protected trademark) - just as any other logos (e.g. Adidas). So the only problem with the file was that I've chosen wrong license. The problem could and should have been cleared by having a discussion. I think such overeager moderation should be considered a violation of rules and vandalism. It blows my mind that even after contacting person who removed the file and stating the above facts, the person still won't revert removal. That's the reason why I ask you here to do something about it. Thanks. --Tuwarg (talk) 16:19, 29 December 2018 (UTC)

File:Polit.jpg

Hello ,

when I posted the picture File:Polit.jpg I thought everything was ok because they already asked questions and I had to follow a procedure and the picture came on the page.

That picture is taken on 20 mars 2016 by my mother with my smartphone. Those bobby's we're standing outside the parliament in London to show the police less militaristic, because the building was highly secured by agents heavely armed.

She has to give permission by e-mail someone told me here on Wiki Commons . Can you undelete this picture so I can follow the correct procedure please?

Normaly I see her within 10 days.

 Oppose - mass-nuked your upload batch after you removed problem tags from many of your own uploads (you received a warning for that) - you have been told not to use a 'PD-unknown' tag if you don't provide evidence that the author has never been known. And consensus in the DR? I don't see at. The only two people in favor of 'keep' are you (uploader) and a basically inactive admin who comes here a few times every year to keep their admin-bit and is known for their high error-rate in their very few admin actions - Jcb (talk) 23:18, 29 December 2018 (UTC)
It is irrelevant if they are active everyday or once a year, they are still an administrator, so I don't think you should be overruling them just because they aren't as active as you would like them to be or because, in your opinion, they have a 'high error rate'.

Please restore files below by OTRS-permission from the author (Ticket:2018102210005795):

But after lengthy discussion about this ticket, he began to doubt the copyright issue (license restrictions) with the used software and third parties rights about previously restored photos (Ticket:2018102210005857). Please delete all photos from Category:Mitino O2 and the category itself. We revoke this permission upon his request. --sasha (krassotkin) 08:20, 31 December 2018 (UTC)

Deletion goes via DR, not via UDR. @Krassotkin: please explain the situation at Commons:Deletion requests/Files in Category:Mitino O2. Jcb (talk) 11:52, 31 December 2018 (UTC)

@Krassotkin: ✓ Done - please process the ticket - Jcb (talk) 12:04, 31 December 2018 (UTC)
