The subject file is an original graphic performed first in SketchUp 3d software and then polished in Keynote; and Photoshop. We are having trouble understanding exactly what is at issue here. Perhaps you can help at your end. First publication was on the ART JAGRAF/X blog page. The graphic came to be noticed by the individual responsible for the WIKI page on the HOTEL DEL CHARRO of La Jolla historical fame. Upon that person's request; we went through the steps to upload the file to the HOTEL DEL CHARRO Wikipedia page. Please let us know how we can be of help. We are published and in the clear anyway so we are JAGRAF/X -- Heather and Ron <email redacted> 114 Lakeview Avenue Spring Vally CA.

The image was deleted by an absolutely wrong assumption that it is not my own work and that I took it from a Facebook page. First, I WORK at the observatory. Second, I am the only ADMINISTRATOR of the referred Facebook page. Third, this is MY photo. And finally, I really wonder that the guy who deleted the image didnt even bother to ask me on my discussion page BEFORE deleting it. First get informed, then act! Otherwise it is simply disrespectful behavior and disturbance to the author, because now I am forced to waste my time writing all these explanations!

Hello

I would like to recover this file in Wikimedia since the file of a Mexican artist and it is not a personal file, this image has public domain, the artist is a musician you can find many images of him, in the description it is described a little that the ago, we can find information about Sadoc Vazkez in google, just do a Google search as Sadoc Vazkez.

The file was created so that the information of this artist can be searched more easily, and to know a little more about what he does.

Well, someone can nominate it for COM:DR if they want. It does not meet COM:CSD#F10, meaning that deletion without a DR is procedurally incorrect. The magazine has a reasonable online presence, suggesting that discussion is necessary to sort it out. -- King of ♥ 19:54, 31 August 2020 (UTC)

--Rodfal (talk) 10:14, 31 August 2020 (UTC) La imagen borrada es de mi total autoría, el enlace que aduce el Administrador como violación de derechos es una página que no menciona los autores, por tanto no puede comprobar con esa mínima prueba que no soy el autor original, además en el ángulo inferior izquierdo está mi nombre "Rodolfo Fernández Alvarez" DECLARO SER EL AUTOR DE DERECHO DE ESTE POSTER,--Rodfal (talk) 10:14, 31 August 2020 (UTC) considero injusto su borrado y denuncia. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rodfal (talk • contribs) 10:14, 31 August 2020‎ (UTC)

 Info Google translates this request as follows: "The deleted image is my total authorship, the link that the Administrator claims as a violation of rights is a page that does not mention the authors, therefore it cannot verify with that minimal proof that I am not the original author, also in the lower left corner My name is "Rodolfo Fernández Alvarez" I DECLARE TO BE THE AUTHOR OF RIGHT OF THIS POSTER, I consider its deletion and complaint unfair." - I'm not sure what image this is about, certainly not Example.jpg, but this user has four different deleted image uploads. It is, however, indeed the case that his uploads such as File:ICO_World_Graphic_Day.jpg have a "Rodolfo Fernández Alvarez" watermark, and he claims to be him, which at least plausibly corresponds to the user name "Rodfal". But maybe OTRS is needed, see below. Gestumblindi (talk) 18:41, 31 August 2020 (UTC)

 Oppose Lower left corner has "Rodolfo Fernando Alvarez (C) 2008". No free license can be found at [1] Thuresson (talk) 18:05, 31 August 2020 (UTC)
Uploader claims to be Rodolfo Fernando Alvarez himself, so he could give a free license, of course. Google translates "Tengo pruebas irrefutables de mi autoría como el nombre y la fotografía de los archivos originales ver ángulo inferior izquierdo" as "I have irrefutable proof of my authorship such as the name and the photograph of the original files, see lower left corner."

Two PHL church photos

File was deleted in 2013, per Commons:Deletion requests/File:Manila Cathedral wts.jpg "no-FOp in the Philippines." Nevertheless, per @Ymblanter: , the present cathedral (although built in the 1950s) is "apparently a derivative of the previous edition of the cathedral" (in other words, the construction in 1950 was actually a reconstruction of the old cathedral in the pre-war era). And according to @Thincat: , the façade survived (per File:Manila_Cathedral_after.jpg). Should this basis is invalid, another basis is the successful undeletion of File:Philippines National Museum.jpg and File:Supreme Court of the Philippines.jpg. Quoting from @Clindberg: 's statement:

At the time, the Philippines' copyright law was based on the U.S. Copyright Act 1909, which did not protect architecture. In 1951, the Philippines joined the Berne Convention, which eliminated the formalities and should have mandated architecture protection, but I'm not sure they passed any explicit laws on the matter. The law was replaced in 1972, which did explicitly protect architecture, but it also explicitly said that copyright protection was only granted for works still under protection of the previous law (i.e. non-retroactive). The non-retroactive part is still in their newer law today. It is *possible* that no copyright protection exists for works which predate 1972, or maybe 1951. Protection would have needed to have been retroactively restored, and not sure any law actually ever did that, unless the provisions of the Berne Convention effectively did, and not sure that is required. For example, the U.S. still does not protect buildings constructed before 1990 (when they added protection mandated by the Berne Convention); there was no retroactive copyright for those. It's a bit murky, but you would expect any retroactive law to exempt certain existing uses, and things like that, and not sure any such law was ever passed, so architectural rights probably were not retroactively restored.

Using Clindberg's statement, it can be interpreted that all architectural works in the Philippines that were completed from 1971 backwards were (and are still) unprotected, since the copyright protection for architecture which was added in 1972 is "not retroactive." JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 04:42, 21 July 2020 (UTC)

Also adding: File:Cathedral side.jpg. Also deleted under same reason per Commons:Deletion requests/File:Cathedral side.jpg, but @Sven Manguard: says it was completed in 1936. Not sure what is this cathedral (since the file name is itself ambiguous), but judging from Sven Manguard's statement on the year, it can be considered as PD if using Clindberg's statement, which again said that the US Copyright Act of 1909, from which the Philippine copyright law emerged, didn't explicitly mentioned architecture as one of the protected works. Despite the Philippines joining the convention in 1951, no law replaced the American-era law of 1900s until the 1972 law was formed, which explicitly protected architecture but also explicitly retained copyright on works that were still in copyright, i.e., excluding architecture completed from 1900s to 1971. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 04:58, 21 July 2020 (UTC)

With the updated Commons:FOP Philippines, I can assume that both subjects are OK at Commons. Manila Cathedral's current incarnation is from 1958 (nevertheless it is still behind 1972 in which formal copyright protection to architecture was implemented, although non-retroactive because of the lack of actual judicial cases). It might be 50-60% OK, or in practice 80-100% OK. For the "unnamed" cathedral, 1936, so 100% OK at Commons. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 03:44, 18 August 2020 (UTC)

Update from the requestor: after extensive research which involves browsing public logs under the filename on Commons and on Wikipedia, this File:Cathedral side.jpg is actually w:Baguio Cathedral, and evidenced by this edit of the original uploader at enwiki. Since this cathedral dates from 1936, it is now clear that it is 100% safe for Commons. 07:04, 30 August 2020 (UTC)

The premise of copyright is the work, and this is a contract about of Ultraman and Tsuburaya Productions. The contract is not a work, so there is no copyright. Therefore, I apply for restoration.wanqi|Huang| (talk) 08:59, 30 July 2020 (UTC)

@黄琬琦: The above declaration contradicts your claim that this is copyrighted and the copyright holder has granted CC0 license. How would you like to fix this? Ankry (talk) 10:42, 30 July 2020 (UTC)
@Ankry: I don't know, because I'm not aware of any precedent for contract documents on Wikimedia Commons,So I don't know what to do with itwanqi|Huang| (talk) 11:39, 30 July 2020 (UTC)

In fact, I chose CC0 because I didn't find the right option and assumed that CC0 was copyright-free,I'm sorry that I chose CC license without knowing whether there are similar contract documents, but I did not find any relevant contract documents.wanqi|Huang| (talk) 12:02, 30 July 2020 (UTC)

@黄琬琦: CC0 means "the copyright holder granted Creative Commons - Public Domain Declaration license" and this requires an evidence. If there is no appropriate copyright template, then we cannot undelete the file without creating the template, providing there PD rationale based on copyright law and accepting the template by community in COM:VPC discussion. Frankly, I am unsure if the contract is indeed not copyrighted. Ankry (talk) 16:08, 30 July 2020 (UTC)
@Ankry: creative work according to the definition of Copyright law in Japan :"思想又は感情を創作的に表現したものであって、文芸、学術、美術又は音楽の範囲に属するもの". i.e., Something that creatively expresses thoughts or feelings, which belonging to the range of literary arts, academics, art, or music.and

Japanese copyright laws :

第二章 著作者の権利 第一節 著作物 (著作物の例示) 第十条 この法律にいう著作物を例示すると、おおむね次のとおりである。 一 小説、脚本、論文、講演その他の言語の著作物 二 音楽の著作物 三 舞踊又は無言劇の著作物 四 絵画、版画、彫刻その他の美術の著作物 五 建築の著作物 六 地図又は学術的な性質を有する図面、図表、模型その他の図形の著作物 七 映画の著作物 八 写真の著作物 九 プログラムの著作物

i.e.,Chapter II Rights of the author Section 1 Works (Examples of works) For example article 10 the works referred to in this law are roughly as follows. 1.A novel, play, essay, lecture, and other work written in other languages 2. Musical Works 3.Dancing or silent drama 4.Paintings, prints, sculptures and other works of fine arts 5. Architectural Works 6. diagrams or academic schemata, diagrams, models or other graphic works 7.A book of films 8.A book of photographs 9.The works of programs [1]

The US Copyright Office also said protects original works of authorship including literary, dramatic, musical, and artistic works, such as poetry, novels, movies, songs, computer software, and architecture.[2]

So you know contracts not are works and creative works, and you know it that no copyrighted.wanqi|Huang| (talk) 05:08, 31 July 2020 (UTC)

Anybody suggests a copyright template that can be used here? Otherwise we have to close this as not done. Ankry (talk) 08:41, 31 July 2020 (UTC)
Why not done? Those "contracts" are {{PD-ineligible}} at least in Japan, or are you asking that such can be copyrighted in the United States (if yes, why? and I'm afraid that this need COM:VP discussions). --Liuxinyu970226 (talk) 02:25, 1 August 2020 (UTC)

@Nat: Because I want it to be used by Wikipedia in all kinds of languages,It is helpful for items that deal with this aspect.As for Everyone's proposal, I support PDwanqi|Huang| (talk) 03:00, 1 August 2020 (UTC)

Then I would  Oppose because you can't be able to identify yourself as S.Sands, only the actual copyright holder, the S.Sands, has right to license their works as CC-0 or other CC licenses, you can't do so for other peoples' works. And you didn't provide evidences why this is Public Domain in Thailand. --Liuxinyu970226 (talk) 03:07, 1 August 2020 (UTC)

@Liuxinyu970226: I added Sompote Sands because this is an Ultraman overseas copyright dispute contract between Sompote Sands and Tsuburaya Productions is the contract between them, but because I didn't find any other contract documents, I don't know how to fill in the author.wanqi|Huang| (talk) 03:08, 1 August 2020 (UTC)

@Nat: Because Commons is a place where documents can be included in the public domain, and the documents (contracts) belong there


It's in the link you gave:

Wikimedia Commons accepts only free content, in other words files that are either freely licensed or which are in the public domain. A file is considered public domain if either all copyright has expired or if the copyright owner(s) has voluntarily placed the content of the file into the public domain by irrevocably renouncing all copyright. A file which is ineligible for copyright protection is also considered public domain.

and .jpg is also a free file format that is allowable

And by the [1] [2] [3] We can conclude that public domain

This document can let people know the specific content of the contract mentioned in the incident, which has a realistically useful for an educational purpose.

And this file is obviously more than just plain text,And that's what it says"Also allowed are files which embody something of value over and above raw text."So it's not only excluded educational content.

Hello. This foto was taken by Hanns Reich himself, who was my father, in the mirror of the entrance hall of our house the day of my birth, 1961-11-09. As his heiress I am sure to possess all rights to publish this foto at wikipedia. Many thanks for undeleting and for your dedication Katharina Reich-OldenNina Brujita (talk) 09:39, 18 August 2020 (UTC)

Hanns Reich had four children, do all copyright owners agree to this? Thuresson (talk) 10:08, 18 August 2020 (UTC)
@Thuresson: A similar issue is actually being discussed at Commons:Village pump/Copyright#Multiple copyright holders; one person grants CC license. My opinion, as stated there, is that we should be relatively lenient when familial matters are concerned. I don't remember the last time an OTRS agent actually requested a copy of a will to prove the inheritance; generally we just accept such claims per COM:AGF. That said, we generally do want some kind of confirmation that a relative of a notable person is actually who they claim to be, but here I don't see a good way of doing so without demanding ID (which is now officially discouraged in OTRS procedures). Any ideas? -- King of ♥ 01:39, 19 August 2020 (UTC)
 Oppose OP's copyright claim requires a detailed legal investigation that can not be done through OTRS volunteers. Thuresson (talk) 18:43, 20 August 2020 (UTC)

Files in Category:PD MacaoGov

I read Commons:Deletion_requests/Files_in_Category:PD_MacaoGov and noted that in this discussion they may have misunderstood s:Decree-Law_n.o_43/99/M. While the English version (which is an unofficial translation) states that "Official works are in particular the texts", the Chinese version actually states it as "Official works are especially referring to the texts", which, in Chinese, means it is not limited to texts. Therefore, some files in this Category is in PD (as I cannot guarantee all files in Category are actually official works). Hereby I request a review to all files in this Category to see if they are truly official works and should be undeleted.

PHL plaque photos - August 29, 2020 undeletion request

(3) Your assertion that "There is no law in iran for copyright.also this work was made by Iranian government it's public domain." is incorrect. Iran has 4 different laws that deal with copyright. While government works are not explicitly mentioned in these laws, these laws do not exempt such works from protection. As such, works by employees of the Government of Iran should be assumed to be protected by copyright in Iran. While such works would not enjoy protection in the United States, it is Commons policy to consider the copyright status of a work in both the United States (where the Wikimedia servers are located) and the country of origin (in this case, Iran). --Ìch heiss Nat. Redd mìt mìr.🥨 01:14, 2 September 2020 (UTC)

I read the warning that came up when I entered the copyright tag so was aware that this would likely happen; however, I'd like to say that I entered this tag under the specific instruction of the owner of the image. I was writing a Wikipedia article on the subject of the image (Zain Naghmi, an American competitive Super Smash Bros. Melee player) and was struggling to find a copyright-free image of him to use.

I saw that this same image was used on a fandom wiki (https://liquipedia.net/smash/Zain) and noted that the uploader had requested the usage from the creator, Preston Kwan. I was able to find Kwan through their Twitter (linked on the file's page - https://liquipedia.net/smash/File:Zain_SSC_2017.jpg) and sent them a DM asking if I could use the file. They agreed, under the conditions that I a) link the original source, b) give them credit and c) upload it under the CC BY-NC-ND license (proof of this conversation here - https://imgur.com/a/3NP0H9n). I understand why the file was deleted, but I have express permission of the creator and was acting under their specific instructions.

Various files under Commons:Deletion requests/Files in Category:Enchanted Kingdom were deleted due to "no-FOP in the Philippines." After obtaining some opinion at Commons:Village pump/Copyright#Are ferris wheels in the Philippines OK for Commons?, it can be considered that some (if not all) of the photos here shouldn't have been deleted. For the following reasons (I'm going to base the reasons according to the exact meaning of the file names):

Ferris wheels (The Wheel of Fate)

- Per Bluerasberry, ferris wheels are structures of machine-type, with no architectural or artistic qualities, hence utilitarian-type. Jeff G. cited COM:UA.

Space shuttle roller coaster

- Interpreting the inputs brought forth in the discussion there, files of this subject should have no problem. The ride can be utilitarian also, although it might have been inspired from NASA (but nevertheless can fall {{PD-USGov-NASA}}). The logo on the cylindrical can (should it appear) is simple, similar to File:Coca-Cola Zero logo.svg. Coke Zero logo was mentioned at Commons:Deletion requests/File:Aer Arann Islands logo.png, in which Jameslwoodward said that it only consists of typefaces and is of a U.S. company, therefore no copyright restriction. Other structures might qualify COM:DM.

Other rides

- I can assume these are also for utilitarian purposes. Per my visit there in October 2019, they appear to be machines for the sole purpose of amusement (theme park)

I'm not sure for the other three, but it appears that File:Enchanted kingdom.jpg is the Enchanted kingdom entrance.jpg of enwiki (per the latter's history and the upload log of TheCoffee) and doesn't qualify the above-mentioned conditions. I don't know for the other two — File:Enchanted Kingdom (01-03-2015).jpg and File:Enchanted Kingdom.JPG — but should they depict the entrance, they are not qualified since the EK entrance is an architecture. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 01:31, 19 August 2020 (UTC)

Additional photo: File:Me at e.k.jpg (Found at Commons:Deletion requests/File:Me at e.k.jpg). However, I can't be sure if this just depicts the component rides there or the gate, which might be a copyrighted architecture. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 13:51, 20 August 2020 (UTC)

✓ Done: except File:Enchanted Kingdom.JPG and File:Me at e.k.jpg which depict copyrighted architecture.

Two RFVelasquez pics with LRT name

I assume the files above depict LRT stations. Deleted due to no FOP (Commons:Deletion requests/Files uploaded by Ramon FVelasquez), but railway stations (even elevated ones) have low COM:TOO, proven by the similarities of the design of most of the LRT and MRT stations. In effect they are not eligible for copyright. Philippine stations were discussed at w:Wikipedia:Possibly unfree files/2012 June 18, in which despite marking the photos as FoP-USonly, Magog the Ogre remarked that Philippine station buildings might not be eligible for architectural copyright ("not enough building as artwork in the photos").

Could this file please be restored: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Earl_Williams_(politician).jpg

Reasoning: The deletion was rationalized by stating it is a copyright violation and the proof was its use in an news article from 2011. see: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Deletion_requests/File:Earl_Williams_(politician).jpg

However, I was the original uploader of this image in 2007 and the news organization took the photo from the wikipedia page for use in 2011. My original upload was high in quality and the news article very low suggesting that they just copied the image from the wikipedia page four years after I posted it. I have the original print photo that I scanned to upload in 2007.

Supporting evidence: The original upload in 2007: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Log?type=&user=&page=File%3AEarl+Williams%28politician%29.jpg&wpdate=&tagfilter=&subtype= My original edits to the article: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Earl_Williams_(politician)&diff=prev&oldid=177147602&diffmode=source

The user Patrick Rogel mistakenly ignored this evidence presented in the original request and wrongly stated the upload was in 2012 after the news article.

Given this, I am asking that the photo be reinstated. — Preceding unsigned comment added by ChartedMemories23 (talk • contribs) 00:42, 4 September 2020‎ (UTC)

  •  Question @ChartedMemories23: While you have the original print photo -- which makes you the owner or possessor of a "copy" of the photo (i.e. the tangible embodiment of the work), but who is the photographer? Ownership or possession of a photo does not equate holding the copyright. The copyright holder is the photographer (i.e. the person who took the photo), rather that the subject (the person who appears in the photo) or the person possessing the photo, unless transferred by operation of law (e.g. inheritance, etc.) or by contract (written and signed by the copyright holder, and explicitly transfers the copyright). Ìch heiss Nat. Redd mìt mìr.🥨 02:06, 4 September 2020 (UTC)
  •  Info Per the log on English Wikipedia, I can confirm that the image was originally uploaded as en:File:Earl Williams(politician).jpg 04:27, 11 December 2007 (UTC).  Comment But this is irrelevant if we cannot determine the work's copyright status. Ìch heiss Nat. Redd mìt mìr.🥨 04:58, 5 September 2020 (UTC)

  •  Oppose @Illi.bee: (1) Under Canadian law (and the law of most other jurisdictions), the copyright holder is the person who took the photo, rather than the person who appears in it, unless the copyright was transferred by operation of law or by copyright -- the latter being in effect only if in writing and signed by the first copyright holder as defined by the law. In any case, as it previously published elsewhere, the copyright holder must send permission and a specific release under an acceptable free licence using the Open-source Ticket Request System process . (2) While Wikimedia Commons has no such policy, other projects, such as English Wikipedia, frown upon conflicts of interests and paid contributions, and require disclosure and the ceasing of all attempts to edit. --Ìch heiss Nat. Redd mìt mìr.🥨 18:13, 7 September 2020 (UTC)

For some unknown reason, the e-mail with the release by the copyright holder/owner of the picture was not processed within the OTRS. I requested a new release by the owner of the picture, it should be forthcoming within the next few days. --Wribln (talk) 22:36, 7 September 2020 (UTC)

 Oppose Processing OTRS emails may take several weeks, and the file will be deleted in the meantime for safety reasons. This is not something extraordinary but a burden that comes with a limited number of OTRS volunteers.

  •  Info This seems to be related to Ticket:2019030510009049. Unfortunately, it appears that OTRS received an email not from the copyright holder but from an individual related to the subject. Unfortunately, under German law, whether it be the 1876 law on photography, the 1907 copyright law or the 1965 copyright law, the copyright (Urheberrecht) rests with the author and cannot be transferred except by operation of law (i.e. inheritance) -- the author or their heirs can grant a right-of-use (Nutzungrecht) but that is a licence and not compatible with Commons' licensing policy. --Ìch heiss Nat. Redd mìt mìr.🥨 01:21, 8 September 2020 (UTC)

Some photographs by TheCoffee

I hereby request the undeletion of the following photographs that were deleted because of "no FOP in the Philippines":

For their FOP case page: Commons:Deletion requests/Files uploaded by TheCoffee

For the record, my first attempt to undelete the Cebu capitol building failed because of URAA copyright provision (Commons:Undeletion requests/Archive/2020-06#File:National Museum of the Filipino People.jpg). But after some discussion at Commons:Village pump/Copyright#Philippine buildings before 1972 and updated COM:FOP Philippines, older architecture in the Philippines are now considered as PD. To quote the updated passage: "Buildings completed prior to August 1, 1951. Philippine copyright law previously followed U.S. copyright law, which did not protect buildings until 1990." This is also in precedent with Clindberg's insight at Commons:Undeletion requests/Archive/2018-01#File:Philippines National Museum.jpg and File:Supreme Court of the Philippines.jpg.

  • For the first photo, Cebu Provincial Capitol was finished and inaugurated on June 14, 1938 (last surviving person here was Juan Arellano, 1888–1960) [enwiki article]
  • For the second photo, the user uploaded it in 2009, during the time Department of Tourism (DOT) was headquartered at the Manila building which is now the en:National Museum of Natural History (Manila), completed in 1941 (designed by Antonio Toledo, who died in 1972). [building details per enwiki, date of death of Toledo per the aforementioned undeletion requests for both Philippines National Museum.jpg and Supreme Court of the Philippines.jpg]
As of this writing (when the files were temporarily undeleted): yes, it is indeed the same subject as the 1941 building which is now the en:National Museum of Natural History (Manila) JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 02:37, 18 August 2020 (UTC)

Since both were built before 1950August 1951, photos of these buildings are 100% safe at Wikimedia Commons.

Also to request undeletion of the following photos by the same user:

  • File:Smith Museum stained glass.jpg. This is because according to his upload log, this is the photo of an object in the United States, where no FOP restrictions to buildings apply. To quote the description on the upload log: "Stained glass displays at the Smith Museum of Stained Glass Windows in Navy Pier, Chicago, Illinois."
  • File:Asiatown IT Park.jpg - upload log reveals the description as "Mid-rise office buildings in Asiatown IT Park, Cebu City, Philippines." I might assume it can fall COM:DM as general view of a business district, not confined to a single building or two or twin buildings (pls. also see the existing photos of Makati CBD, Ortigas, San Lazaro, et cetera here), but I cannot exactly confirm this since deleted files are virtually "invisible" to non-admins. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 09:26, 17 August 2020 (UTC)


    •  Support the first two. There should never be any URAA issues with photos of buildings, since the U.S. does not consider photos of buildings to be derivative works, so any URAA restoration of architecture is irrelevant for a photo of them -- FoP for buildings is purely an issue for the country of origin. I can't see the other two, though if the first was of a U.S. building, sounds like it should not have been part of the original DR. Carl Lindberg (talk) 14:17, 17 August 2020 (UTC)
Paging @Clindberg: the files are now visible (albeit temporarily) JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 05:58, 28 August 2020 (UTC)
For "File:Asiatown IT Park.jpg," it might qualify Commons:DM if its scene is much akin to File:Ortigas Center Manila.JPG or File:San Lazaro Manila.jpg (as the description claims, as per upload log "Mid-rise office buildings in Asiatown IT Park, Cebu City, Philippines"). Again, non-admins like me cannot see deleted photos. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 14:38, 17 August 2020 (UTC)

✓ Provisionally restored to facilitate discussion. -- King of ♥ 18:09, 17 August 2020 (UTC)

For the stained-glass windows, I find no problems in hosting it on Commons since it is similar to others in the Category:Stained-glass windows in Illinois. It is also on US soil, not on Philippine soil.

New comment This photo refers to the w:Smith Museum of Stained Glass Windows (Category:Smith Museum of Stained Glass Windows) JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 01:15, 19 August 2020 (UTC)

For File:Asiatown IT Park.jpg, I might use some foreign examples.

French example/s: File:La Défense de nuit, Paris, France 2.jpg. File was bundled at the DR Commons:Deletion requests/File:La Défense, Paris April 2012.jpg, but was nonetheless kept because of being a "general view." Another might be: File:92400 Courbevoie, France - panoramio (1).jpg (DR: Commons:Deletion requests/File:92400 Courbevoie, France - panoramio (1).jpg). I'll try to find some other examples from those nations with more restrictive or non-commercial FOP's. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 02:28, 18 August 2020 (UTC)
UAE example (I don't know if this can apply): File:The Dubai Fountain & Burj Khalifa Pixabay.jpg - kept as per Commons:Deletion requests/File:The Dubai Fountain & Burj Khalifa Pixabay.jpg JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 11:19, 18 August 2020 (UTC)
New comment from the requester during the temporary undeletion period: for the Asiatown photo, another factor to be considered might be the low COM:TOO for the building at the center (and possibly the two buildings to the left). (possible reference might be the DR of a mall photo: Commons:Deletion requests/File:Sm megamall.jpg). JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 00:05, 19 August 2020 (UTC)
New cmt also to use is the DR of another mall photo which ended up being kept: (possible reference might be the DR of a mall photo: Commons:Deletion requests/File:Smmarilaojf.JPG). Although in my opinion (and my observation to this photo while temp undeleted) the three Asiatown buildings in focus seem to be less elaborate than SM Marilao's, and such style is usually replicated in most other buildings in the Philippines, usually made or designed by different architectural firms. So I think these three Asiatown buildings have low COM:TOO. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 03:57, 25 August 2020 (UTC)

Temporarily undeleted for discussion. The photo is definitely before 1918, so it cannot present 1930s suits. But there is another problem: at the moment I see no reason why is might be free. The cc license is clearly false as it cannot be by the photographer. And no evidence tor early publication. delete and undelete in 2038? Ankry (talk) 20:59, 25 August 2020 (UTC)
Is a bit different from what I expected, but still useful IMHO. According to the discussion here (almost at the end), the uploader is the heir of the original photographer, so from a copyright standpoint, everything should be fine. --PaterMcFly (talk) 14:57, 26 August 2020 (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. Signing your comments helps people to find out who said something and provides them with a link to your user/talk page (for further discussion). Thank you.

The copyright holder, under German copyright law (regardless of whether it be the 1876 law, the 1907 law, or the 1965 law), is the photographer and the copyright cannot be transferred except by operation of law.

This image is probably a based selfie and not on a biased sided slanted photographed taken from another person that it appears that the image was taken by a Staff of the restro last December 21, 2018 a and posted to Instagram.

As a matter of fact, I believe that this photo should be recycled in despited that permission to reuse is that any photography posted on that social media app, and taken responsible for permission itself and take credit before uploading.

  •  Oppose @JKLMedia: Ownership or possession of a photo, proprietorship of the equipment used to take the photo, or being the subject of the photo does not equate holding the copyright. The copyright holder is the photographer (i.e. the person who took the photo), rather that the subject (the person who appears in the photo) or the person possessing the photo, unless transferred by operation of law (e.g. inheritance, etc.) or by contract (written and signed by the copyright holder, and explicitly transfers the copyright).

Some files that wrongly deleted based on "no FOP in Sweden"

@LPfi, Esquilo, Yuraily Lic, and Fitindia:

As explaned by Esquilo on Commons talk:Copyright rules by territory/Sweden, the de facto COM:FOP Sweden section is really confusing in the wordings, it looks like Sweden does have a buildings-only FOP, just if they are not permitted to publish on a structured database of public art, I think the FOP Sweden section need to be re-written by this discussion. --Liuxinyu970226 (talk) 00:26, 18 September 2020 (UTC)

File:DSF5372.jpg - COCHAE's work (Origami)

The file was deleted by User:Túrelio due to copyright violation. However, this file was uploaded by the author himself as per my request via Twitter on September 16. As you see, there are three Twitter accounts involved in the conversation: COCHAE (@COCHAE), w:ja:User:漱石の猫 (@souneko), and myself Wind Rose (@rosy_wind_jawp, w:en:User:ProfessorPine). I can ask COCHAE to officially tweet whether the person who uploaded the file is COCHAE or not if this procedure meets the licensing permission requirements.

Below is the quick translation of conversation on Twitter:

  • Wind Rose (ProfessorPine) on Sept 16: "漱石の猫 (@souneko0304) wrote up the article about w:ja:COCHAE, but there are no photos. Would you kindly provide any photos of COCHAE's work under CC-BY-SA license? This license allows commercial uses and is required for all Wikipedia articles and files."
  • Wind Rose on Sept 17: "Should you have any question about the licensing, please feel free to contact me via Twitter Direct Message. For your information, I give you another example of 漱石の猫's contribution article w:ja: 有松・鳴海絞り. Inserting photos would make an article more attractive. Any photos of your creative works, exhibitions, or portraits of COCHAE would be appreciated."
  • 漱石の猫 on Sept 17: "I am the primary writer of the article. Thank you everything for your cooperation. I have just found an photo file uploaded to Wikimedia Commons and inserted it into the Wikipedia article. Again, thank you for your kindness and quick response."
  • Then, COCHAE (@COCHAE) liked both Wind Rose and 漱石の猫's twitter messages.

I assume the conversation is casual but can be regarded as an official permission. Please advise. --ProfessorPine (talk) 03:31, 18 September 2020 (UTC)

Здравствуйте! Загруженный мной файл был удален по непонятной мне причине. Чуть больше недели назад он был номинирован на удаление. Мне предложили предоставить разрешение на его использование. Но этот файл моя собственная работа. Это было указано в описании. Какую лицензию или разрешение мне нужно было предоставить Викискладу? Не мог ли бы кто-то из модераторов объяснить, что мне делать в данной ситуации. В часто задаваемых вопросах я не нашел решения моей проблемы.

Hello! The file I uploaded was deleted for a reason I don't understand. A little over a week ago, it was nominated for delete. I was asked to grant permission to use it. But this file is my own work.

Hi,

File:Salcombe_Cannon_Wreck_and_Moor_Sands_Sites.jpg

This image is a photograph I took. I uploaded it and added it to a page (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salcombe_Cannon_Wreck) but it was shortly flagged for deletion due to a lack of "source". I emailed in the relevant form but the image has still been deleted. I've no idea why it didn't have a source as I uploaded it using the usual upload wizard and filled in the form as I have with the rest of the photos I've uploaded.

Please undelete it.

Hi, this is an undeletetion request for the File:DaveLeducTunTunMin.jpg.

Prior to deletion, all the authors of the pictures on the file had sent their OTRS permissions for the pictures and graphic designs.

As for the Facebook post concern [24], the Burmese page was allowed to publish the poster, but clearly forgot to appropriately credit ONE8IGHT. If you look carefully at the file used in the post, it has the Lethwei World square logo on the top right corner, the sports media authority. This shows it was taken and reposted from Lethwei World's original post, the caption is also the same as on the initial post (Posted on November 27th 2018) https://www.instagram.com/p/BqsTCSIgIHe/?igshid=q8va4p36gvuf.

ONE8IGHT gave permission to Lethwei World (LW) to post and use its file, and LW did credit them correctly.

WikiCommons admins were waiting on one last explanation for the Pagoda picture used at the top of the poster, but it ultimately took too long and the file was wrongfully deleted.

I was told today that ONE8IGHT, the creator of the file, sent the permission for the pagoda via email. Therefore, all the pictures have now been addressed.

Once the file is restored, I am planning to reduce the size of the image.

Thank you for your help.

Best regards, Lethweimaster (talk)

This file, deleted in 2017 per Commons:Deletion requests/File:AfricaMap2.jpg is one of a series of military history maps produced by the US Military Academy at West Point. Other maps of this particular series, documenting parts of the WW2 Western Desert Campaign, are in Category:Maps of World War II in Libya. Although the source links have by and large expired as the West Point website has gone through a couple of redesign iterations since, they can all be found here on archive.org. The present map is under 34b, with the url and the info on the bottom of the page, as well as the information on one of the referring pages, confirming their provenance as products of the US military. It'd be ideal to update all these maps with their vector versions which West Point has in the meantime produced. However, given the magnitude of this task and the public interest in not removing public domain content from Wikimedia Commons, I request that the present map be reinstated. Thank you!

At Commons:Deletion requests/File:Grafite no ônibus.jpg three Commons admins, none of them fluent in Portuguese, decided that this photo, showing Portuguese-language graffiti, is outside of our scope — against the opinion of two Portuguese-speaking users. (A copyright concern was also raised, but quickly dismissed.) -- Tuválkin 04:42, 22 September 2020 (UTC)

@Tuvalkin: It was deleted, because nobody elaborated why it is in scope. Please, do so. Ankry (talk) 05:44, 22 September 2020 (UTC)
  • @Ankry: The burden of proof lies on the party asking for deletion. Yet nowhere in the DR it was explained why it is not in scope — and how could it be, since none of the delete-voters understands the language? Anyway, it suffices to read the DR to see that Tm did offer a translation, even though if COM:AGF was to be respected by these three admins that would not be necessary. -- Tuválkin 22:09, 22 September 2020 (UTC)
  • @Tuvalkin: P199's nomination statement of Unused personal photo, no educational value, out of scope clearly makes a sufficient case for its deletion. The burden of proof is on those arguing for the file to be retained -- in this case, why this file is in scope needs to be made clear. It was not made clear in the deletion discussion. Context is everything. But context was not explained at all. --Ìch heiss Nat. Redd mìt mìr.🥨 01:04, 23 September 2020 (UTC)
  • @Nat: The burden of proof lies on the party asking for deletion, as said before and as policy requires, and as you should know, past all the deletionist gaslighting. Obviously, if one cannot understand the language something it’s written in, one cannot ascertain the meaning of that text — let alone its scope value for Commons. The nomination was a free-form excercise in pointless deletionism, something that happens unopposed thousands of times each week in Commons. You say that the value of this photo was made clear, yet Tm’s translation was not even addressed — neither in the DR, not here now. (Bear in mind that, unlike the four of you, neither me nor Tm nor most of us can take a look again at the deleted photo.) -- Tuválkin 04:41, 23 September 2020 (UTC)
  • @Tuvalkin:  Temporarily undeleted for the period of the discussion. --Ìch heiss Nat. Redd mìt mìr.🥨 04:57, 23 September 2020 (UTC)
  • @Tuvalkin: Tm’s translation brought no context to the discussion. As I've stated, P199's nomination statement of Unused personal photo, no educational value, out of scope clearly made a sufficient case for its deletion. Whether other users speak Portuguese or not is not the core issue. The core issue here is why the image is in scope, why it would be educationally useful, what can we learn from it. No context was given, either by the uploader or those arguing for its retention. I would be in favour of full undeletion if such context could actually be provided. It is as simple as that. Ìch heiss Nat. Redd mìt mìr.🥨 04:57, 23 September 2020 (UTC)
Again another proof that whether other users speak Portuguese or not is the core issue. First there was the confusion that this graffiti was made in Portugal, when a native speaker of portuguese would understand that this was made in Brazil. As the translation was not taken into account and gave context, also the context was given in the original description in portuguese "A sociedade nos impõem normas de como devemos falar, vestir e, até mesmo, a visão maniqueísta do certo e errado.

Unused is not a reason to delete a feminist graffiti. Or do we are going to delete the tens of millions of files not in use? Tm (talk) 09:53, 23 September 2020 (UTC)
  • @Tm: You made no such point in the deletion discussion. The educational value is/was not evident here, especially because those in favour of the file's retention refused to provide any rationale in the DR. Per policy, Unused is enough for deletion when no clear evidence that the photo can be used educationally. --Ìch heiss Nat. Redd mìt mìr.🥨 12:39, 23 September 2020 (UTC)
Given translation is not a rationale in the DR? And, seen what you have written, you deleted the file it seems without reading the description in portuguese or the categories? And what rationale was given in the DR for deletion? "Unused personal photo, no educational value, out of scope", unused is not a reason to delete and this is not a personal photo (where is the person or personal object depicted)? And where was the rationale for this photo to be out of scope and so of no educational value? No reason was provided for this file to be out of scope and yet several reasons were present in the file description and given for this file to be in scope (political graffiti in brasil, feminist graffiti, graffiti of feminist symbols, text about femnism) and yet this file was deleted. Tm (talk) 12:53, 23 September 2020 (UTC)
  • @Tm: No, a translation of the text is not sufficient, nor is the text in Portuguese. Both texts do not give a clear reason why it is in scope. All it does is proclaim a grand statement, which is then explain with another one. But no description is given of why and how it is in scope -- which could be as simple as providing that in the description in any language. Again, context is everything, and it should be provided. One can not assume that everyone will understand it otherwise. --Ìch heiss Nat. Redd mìt mìr.🥨 14:33, 23 September 2020 (UTC)
Did you at least made an effort to see from where this text was quoted? Albeit i did a mistraslation when i added "better" in "for a [better world] ..." , the correct translation is “For a world where we are socially equal, humanly different and totally free”. Did you know to whom this text is attributed? A quick search would show that this is a quote from the Spartacist Rosa Luxembourg. Tm (talk) 19:34, 23 September 2020 (UTC)

There was some confusion in the OTRS ticket for this file. The rights holder erroneously gave permission for another picture file rather than for this one. Then an empty file with that title was created, obviously against the warning that appears in such cases. Now we received a correction at OTRS. It is the above named file for which permission is given. See Ticket#2020091610000031 Can someone please delete the empty file and restore the original file with the picture? I will then put the OTRS permission tag into it. – Thanks, --Mussklprozz (talk) 06:58, 25 September 2020 (UTC)

The reason why these images must be restored is that the users @EugeneZelenko: and @ManFromNord: deleted the images of the shields of soccer teams in Mexico for believing that they are not free. It is an error, because the PD-Coa-Mexico license allows uploading this type of images, because the license says: "it belongs to a" recognized "organization (which in that case a sports organization), so it is not protected by copyright, in addition they must take into account that this image Escudo del Cruz Azul AC.svg, was going to be eliminated for the same reason If it is not a free image, but if you see the file discussion a user says: "If you even know the Federal Copyright Law of Mexico, this logo of a recognized organization (football club) is not protected according to the Art 14 subparagraph VII and indicated in PD-Coa-Mexico ", in addition to the laws of https: //commons.wikim edia.org/wiki/Commons:Copyright_rules_by_territory/Mexico/es Commons: Copyright rules by territory / Mexico / es says in the section Not protected article VII states: "Reproductions or imitations, without authorization, of shields, flags or emblems of any country, state, municipality or equivalent political division, or denominations, acronyms, symbols or emblems of international governmental, non-governmental organizations, or of any other officially recognized organization ", therefore they can be uploaded with or without the permission of the author, so they must be restored because it is a mistake that anyone could have made, unfortunately in other Wikipedia pages in other languages ​​these images are wrongly uploaded as non-free, ignoring that the laws of Mexico allow uploading these images, examples:

  • https: //en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File: Tigres_UANL_logo_ (crest) .svg

@Stephentalla: In order to undelete the photo we need either: a free license permission from the photographer or photographer heirs, or an evidence that copyright expired in country of origin. When the photo was made? What is its country of origin? Was it ever published, and when and where, if so. A 2020 photo copyright cannot expire, yet. You claimed that you are the photographer who made this photo of your family member: how old were you when the photo was made? Ownership of a photo print is irrelevant for copyright.

Bonjour,

Suite au courriel de Jeanne Person, j'ai supprimé la clause NC (Pas d'utilisation commerciale) sur Flickr des six clichés dont je suis l'auteur :

   File:Tous les chemins 1960.jpg
   File:Soleil d'hiver.jpg
   File:Scène de vie parisienne.jpg
   File:Les pêcheurs 1974.jpg
   File:L'accordéoniste.jpg
   File:Café du matin.jpg

Ils sont donc libres de droits et devraient être compatibles avec wikipedia. Pouvez vous SVP annuler les six suppressions. Merci.

Par ailleurs et comme expimé dans ma demande Permissions - Wikimedia Commons <permissions-commons@wikimedia.org> le mer. 19 août à 16:46, je rappelle que je possède les droits de représenter et signer en mon nom tous les documents nécessaires à la présentation ou exposition de tableaux de mon neveu Pierre Deschodt.

@Kvardek du: pinging for opinion. I do not see any -NC- license anywhere around (the deleted images are declared Own work, with no source link). Ankry (talk) 00:01, 24 September 2020 (UTC)
@PDeschodt: When the permission in the OTRS ticket is verified and accepted, the images will be restored by the OTRS volunteer or on their request. It you have questions about OTRS ticket processing, you can ask at COM:OTRS. Unfortunately, it seems that we have backlog in the French OTRS queue, so ticket processing may be delayed.

File:Smbaliuagjf243.JPG and photos of several Philippine malls

File was deleted in 2012, according to Commons:Deletion requests/File:Smbaliuagjf243.JPG, the file was deleted because of no-FOP (freedom of panorama) in the Philippines. However, the deletion request for another mall of the same mall chainCommons:Deletion requests/File:Sm megamall.jpg – ended up as "kept" because, according to @King of Hearts: , the SM Megamall lacks characteristics that makes it copyrightable. Quoting from King of Hearts' statement:

I just found the following in Sec. 186: "Copyright in a work of architecture shall include the right to control the erection of any building which reproduces the whole or a substantial part of the work either in its original form or in any form recognizably derived from the original: Provided, That the copyright in any such work shall not include the right to control the reconstruction or rehabilitation in the same style as the original of a building to which that copyright relates." While not directly related, I think this implies some sort of threshold. Think about it: Suppose someone built a building shaped like a grey cube, with no features, nothing at all. If someone else came along and built a grey cube-shaped featureless building (which is almost identical to the first by necessity of the description), is that a copyright violation? You could say, well, it's almost identical, and hence "recognizably derived from the original." But an idea that can be expressed in a short phrase like "grey cube-shaped featureless building" is merely a style, and so we have a contradiction. So we conclude that there ought to be some threshold of originality, only above which is an idea separable from its expression.

Using this statement by King of Hearts, it can be interpreted that SM Malls like SM Megamall have little copyrightable elements present. It can also be interpreted that all other malls belonging to SM can be considered as having little threshhold of originality, as evidenced by the successful defense in the Commons:Deletion requests/File:Smmarilaojf.JPG (for SM City Marilao). Then SM City Baliwag (and possibly other malls by SM Supermalls) also fall under the low or little TOO as said by King of Hearts for both SM Megamall and SM City Marilao. However, I might need the insights of some other Filipino Wikipedians regarding this. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 04:03, 21 July 2020 (UTC)

@King of Hearts: I'm not sure if this TOO rationale can be safely be considered for other photos of SM malls deleted, such as :File:SM_Aura_in_Bonifacio_Global_City.jpg found at Commons:Deletion requests/Files in Category:Shopping malls in the Philippines. But I can assume that this low or little TOO can be applied to other malls, judging from the case of SM City Marilao. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 05:12, 21 July 2020 (UTC)

Yeah, that one looks pretty complex. -- King of ♥ 05:21, 21 July 2020 (UTC)
@King of Hearts: here is a (partial) list of deleted photos depicting malls by SM Supermalls. Since I'm not an admin, I can't identify whether they can be undeleted just like the case of SM Megamall pic and of SM City Marilao or they do not pass low TOO.

Update @King of Hearts and Nat: per updated COM:FOP Philippines (using low COM:TOO standard in our country, proven by similarities of architectural styles in various common buildings in our country, usually by different architectural firms or people), I might also request the undeletion of the following two Robinsons Mall photos:

Unfortunately, casual searches on Google may find File:Robinsons Place Bacolod.jpg and File:Robinsons Place Manila Pedro Gil.jpg not passing the low TOO. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 14:38, 26 August 2020 (UTC)

Per Commons:Deletion requests/File:Quezon memorial.jpg, file was deleted because of "no FoP in the Philippines," deletion was made in 2012. However, per Commons:Deletion requests/Files in Category:Quezon Memorial Circle (dated 2019), QMC (esp. the monument) was designer by Federico Ilustre who "was working for the Bureau of Public Works when he did this design." (per User:Jameslwoodward) Added basis is from @Seav: , quoted by @Markoolio97: :

The architect was an employee of the government and the shrine is owned and maintained by the government. As such the shrine is considered a work of the government and according to the Intellectual Property Code of the Philippines, no copyright subsists in works of the government. This also applies to when the Philippine government was part of the United States during the time the shrine was designed.

As such, QMC is PD (a work of and owned by the government) and photos of it are permissible at Commons. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 04:28, 21 July 2020 (UTC)

  •  Comment Hmmm. While I'm not opposed to undeletion, the statement that Federico Ilustre "was working for the Bureau of Public Works when he did this design." overlooks the fact that per the English Wikipedia article: His most notable work would be his design of the Quezon Memorial Shrine monument, a design he made for a national design competition held in 1951 for the then-planned monument for late President Manuel L. Quezon, where he won the grand prize, which indicates that he may not have been working on this design in his capacity as a government employee, but as a private citizen competing in a national design competition.

  • @Nat: in this case, I might mention again the two users — @Seav: and @Markoolio97: — who interpreted this "commissioning of works by the government as equivalent to PD-PH government" and were active in the prior undeletion attempts at QMC (which somehow were 98% successful). I also passed by this previous undeletion request of 98% of the deleted pictures of QMC - Commons:Undeletion_requests/Archive/2019-02#Photographs of Quezon Memorial. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 11:51, 21 July 2020 (UTC)
@Nat: found an insight at Commons:Deletion requests/Files in Category:Quezon Memorial Shrine, by @TagaSanPedroAko: "The FOP issue is a gray area of Philippine copyright law that affects images of many modern architectural works in the Philippines posted here on Commons (but not elsewhere on the Web), and I agree with the two this should not be deleted as Seav states is clearly a government-commissioned work. It's just time not to step too far regarding lack of FOP in the Philippines, but I agree US copyright law prevails (the work needs to be both free in the US and the Philippines) and the nominator just did it right. As far as I know, Filipino architects don't mind any pictures of their works, even where posted on the Net; it's just the existing law (from the 1990s) that doesn't reflect reality."
I somehow agree with TagaSanPedroAko, and also with @Sky Harbor: in his futile attempt to "save" a pic that was eventually deleted. Despite vagueness of our copyright law, with incompatible fair use guidelines, and the non-mention of a FOP-like provision, it can be said that there is "status quo" situation for photography prevailing in the Philippines, since no case lawsuit against Filipino photographers has ever been filed by the architectural community, at least for those photographing structures that were built or designed by the now-deceased people. This might be against the 5 precautionary measures, but that is the reality in our country. I might also quote a so-called general principle in our laws that was uttered by to Hon. Alfredo Garbin Jr. of the w:Ako Bicol party list during the June 8 hearing for the ABS-CBN's franchise (link to the w:Philippine Star video - [26]). At point 1:47:50, he said that "the basic principle in law, and that principle is that what is not prohibited is allowed." Although this might only apply to the station's franchise woes, it can be interpreted that his statement is for all Philippine laws, whether network franchise or copyright or even photographic restrictions. I previously posted this insight on King of Hearts' enwiki talkpage.
If there are some restrictions in photography, these are usually non-copyright restrictions such as needing an access permit to visit a landmark or asking permission from the management or the security officers. @Judgefloro: once responded Commons:Deletion requests/Files in Category:Quezon Memorial Shrine that upon asking permission from the officers, he was told that it is permissible to take pictures for purposes of Wikimedia Commons since such purposes are for "public learning" (i.e. educational purposes). So I can assume that pictures of QMC and its monument are allowable here in accordance with Commons' aims JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 02:38, 7 August 2020 (UTC)

The architect was an employee of the government and the shrine is owned and maintained by the government. As such the shrine is considered a work of the government and according to the Intellectual Property Code of the Philippines, no copyright subsists in works of the government. This also applies to when the Philippine government was part of the United States during the time the shrine was designed.

The most suitable tag to be used for this case is {{3-D in PD}} with embedded {{PD-PhilippinesGov}}.
And I stand with Hon. Garbin's (of Ako-Bikol party list) statement about the basic principle in Philippine laws (although some might argue it as only relevant to citizenship and franchise laws, not copyright law, and others might say "please see 5 precautionary principles!"): "What is not prohibited is allowed." (a mere application of common sense) JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 06:26, 8 August 2020 (UTC)
  • No. My point is that the argument of there are no lawsuits of photographic reproductions of architectural works is irrelevant. COM:FOP Philippines clearly notes that restrictions here are clearly copyright restrictions. The only question that should be considered here is whether Federico Ilustre acted in the capacity of a government employee or a private citizen when he participated in the national design competition for the monument (in which a prize was awarded). Everything else is irrelevant at the moment. --Ìch heiss Nat. Redd mìt mìr.🥨 12:55, 8 August 2020 (UTC)
To quote from the source cited on Ilustre's enwiki article, although the original link is down (https://web.archive.org/web/20141017040422/http://nhcp.gov.ph/the-restoration-of-quezon-memorial-shrine/) JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 13:55, 8 August 2020 (UTC)

The Quezon Memorial Shrine was designed by Architect Federico Ilustre, who won a design contest for the Quezon Memorial Project in 1951. The Bureau of Public Works began the construction of the memorial in 1952 but failed to finish due to insufficient funding. Later on, the memorial was turned over to the National Historical Commission of the Philippines (formerly NHI) by virtue of Presidential Decree No. 1 issued by Pres. Ferdinand Marcos on September 21, 1972.[1] The Commission took the responsibility to finish the structure.[2]

  • [2] Ramos-De Leon, Lilia. The Quezon Memorial Shrine. Kasaysayan Vol. III N.1-4, Manila: National Historical Institute, 1978, p. 9-10.
Also found a passage on enwiki article itself, @Nat:

He first joined the Bureau of Public Works in 1936 as a draftsman, staying in that position until the outbreak of World War II in the country in 1941. He was then promoted to the position of consulting architect iduring the Japanese Occupation. After the war, he briefly left the bureau to join the AFWESPAC of the US Army as supervising architect and assist them in the postwar infrastructure rehabilitation. In 1947, he became the supervising architect of the National Housing Commission, a position he held for two years until he returned to the Bureau of Public Works in 1949 also as supervising architect. He would remain with the public works office until the 1970s.[1] _ Lico, Gerard (2008). Arkitekturang Filipino: A History of Architecture and Urbanism in the Philippines. Quezon City: University of the Philippines Press.

Accordingly, Ilustre was working (actually returned) as a supervising architect to the Bureau of Public Works in 1949. This means that he was part of the Bureau of Public Works (as a supervising architect) when he did the design in 1951 (or maybe 1950, but it is improbable that he made the design before 1950). JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 14:02, 8 August 2020 (UTC)

@Nat: A quote from the Philippine Star article concerning the construction of the now-demolished terminal building of the Manila International Airport (precursor of NAIA):

In 1954 Magsaysay gave the Bureau of Public Works the orders to implement designs prepared by noted government architect Federico Ilustre. Ilustre had apprenticed with Juan Nakpil before the war. After Liberation, he won the competition for the Quezon Memorial. He became the chief architect of the Bureau of Public Works, the precursor of today’s DPWH.

It seems to contradict various claims by several sites that he designed the monument as a Bureau of Public Works employee. His public works position wasn't also mentioned in the following:

World War II and the destruction it brought to the metropolis, not to mention the death of the newborn capitol city’s founder during that period, dashed the hopes for those grand plans....Until the government decided to dedicate this field instead as a memorial to the man whose vision made Quezon City possible, with a shrine instead of the planned capitol to be its landmark. A contest was soon held for the design of the planned Quezon Memorial Shrine that was to rise in the elliptical field. The prize was eventually given to the design of Filipino architect Federico Ilustre, which incorporated contemporary design with some classical and symbolic inspirations. Although the planning of the memorial began way back after the war in 1945, it would take more than 30 years before the vision of the Quezon memorial was finally realized due to long-winding issues with funding and materials....

The Quezon Memorial Committee which was tasked to organize a nationwide fund-raising campaign for the building of a monument dedicated to former President Manuel Quezon, was established by the virtue of Executive Order, No. 79 signed by then President Sergio Osmeña on December 17, 1945. Then President Elpidio Quirino proposed the relocation of the monument away from its original planned site but such plans were not pushed through. The Bureau of Public Works commenced the construction of the monument in 1952.

If this is true then does that mean all other pictures of this monument are also affected (in particular all pictures undeleted at Commons:Undeletion_requests/Archive/2019-02#Photographs of Quezon Memorial)? JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 07:31, 12 August 2020 (UTC)

  •  Comment Hi, I just want to add that according to page 161 of this report issued by the Quezon Memorial Committee in 1952, I quote:

    In order to secure an appropriate plan of this Memorial a contest was opened some time ago by the Committee to all architects and civil engineers for the selection of the best design for the proposed Memorial. The prize of P10,000 was offered for the plan adjudged the best. This prize was won by Architect Federico Ilustre. The winning plan together with all its details, is on display in the Office of the Committee in the City Hall.

  • Judging by this, I would assume that Ilustre's design was made in his capacity as a private architect rather than as the chief architect of the government. However, in page 163, there is an illustration of Ilustre's plan for the memorial with his name written at the bottom and a logo at the bottom right corner. If anyone can identity that logo which to me looks like a government office seal, maybe it could confirm that this was made in his capacity as a government architect. Just my 2 cents -Howhontanozaz (talk)

@Nat: according to Jsnueva1022 at User talk:Mrcl lxmna#Nomination to delete the Quezon Memorial Shrine photo, this monument "was built by the Philippine government, local government unit of Quezon City in specific, in honor to the late President Manuel Quezon." So I think this should now rest the case. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 02:58, 9 September 2020 (UTC)

Correction JWilz12345, it was actually built by the now-defunct Quezon Memorial Committee using funds obtained through a fund-raising campaign. But that is somewhat irrelevant since the crux of this discussion concerns the design of the monument. -Howhontanozaz (talk) 04:22, 9 September 2020 (UTC)
