Someone's Review Request

Dear Christian,

Can you verify if this Youtube video was once free on Internet Archive in February 2020 as I cannot. I got this message below. Maybe you have better luck.

"Would very much appreciate license reviews for the following three files (especially the Grande picture, her current Wikipedia lede photo is awful):

• File:Ariana Grande Grammys Red Carpet 2020.png
• File:200126 Dua Lipa on the 2020 Grammys Red Carpet.jpg
• File:200126 Lizzo on the 2020 Grammys Red Carpet.png"

• The text-only cache show indeed a compatible license, but I'm not sure if {{LicenseReview}} is done for this kind of case. I have asked in Commons:Village pump/Copyright. Christian Ferrer ^(talk) 19:58, 9 March 2020 (UTC)

•  Comment: I decided to reluctantly review 2 of the 3 images except the one you mentioned on Village Pump after the uploader sent me this message. "Here's Google's cache of the page, if that helps." DanielleTH ^{(Say hi!)} 20:33, 9 March 2020 (UTC)
• The link seems different but the license is CC BY 3.0...and the video time is also 3:16 minutes. Hmm! --Leoboudv (talk) 20:50, 9 March 2020 (UTC)
• As per the comments made in the Village Pump, I am reluctant to use {{LicenseReview}} for that kind of case. Christian Ferrer ^(talk) 17:40, 12 March 2020 (UTC)

Possible copyright violation

Hi Christian. It seems that the latest two versions of this file are not free and need to be deleted. However, I don't know how to nominate only those two versions for deletion without nominating the original version. I'd be glad if you help me with this. Thank you. Keivan.f^Talk 18:57, 15 March 2020 (UTC)

•  Done Hi, I deleted the two versions. In such case you can ask to an administrator, as you did, or you can start a regular deletion request with the rationale you have quoted above. Christian Ferrer ^(talk) 19:15, 15 March 2020 (UTC)

Image without license

File:Ophioderma zibrowii (10.5852-ejt.2020.600) Figure 12.jpg

---

There seems to be a problem regarding the description and/or licensing of this particular file. It has been found that you've added in the image's description only a Template that's not a license and although it provides useful information about the image, it's not a valid license. Could you please resolve this problem, adding the license in the image linked above? You can edit the description page and change the text. Uploading a new version of the file does not change the description of the file. This page may give you more hints on which license to choose. Thank you.

Help

Hello. Yesterday you have send me a message. Help me, please: where I can find information about license of the files 1, 2, 3 and 4? In the source of the files i can't find it. Maybe, you know how I can correct this situation? Kirill SH (talk) 08:39, 24 March 2020 (UTC)

• Hello, that is exactly the issue, in the source there is no compatible licenses, and when there is no licenses available that means that this is "full rights reserved". Wikimedia Commons accept only freely-licensed medias, you may read com:Licensing and com:Scope. I'm afraid that we can do nothing for those files, and I'm going to delete them. Sorry again, Christian Ferrer ^(talk) 08:54, 24 March 2020 (UTC)

File:Alireza amirghasemi.jpg

hello Mr.Ferrer

this file is a screenshot of a FREE Tv program in Iran. everyone are allowed to share this programs video files, and screen shots. Shahryarsee (talk) 08:53, 30 March 2020 (UTC)

• Hello, I'm not aware that "FREE Tv" programs exists, neither what that mean exactly. What is the rationale for such claim? Christian Ferrer ^(talk) 09:35, 30 March 2020 (UTC)
• In Iran we don't have copywrite law for tv programs. Anything that is broadcasted on television is free to use and share. There are no paid channels in Iran. every thing that is broadcasted on tv is avalable to download freely on "Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting website". Iran's media is diffrent from other counries. tv belongs to goverment, tv programs are made by goverment, and thay are free. Shahryarsee (talk) 13:30, 31 March 2020 (UTC)

Sorry, no, I don't think they are free. I just looked at Commons:Copyright rules by territory/Iran, and it seems that such artworks are protected in Iran at leat 30 years from the year of publication. Christian Ferrer ^(talk) 13:54, 31 March 2020 (UTC)

• this is not cinema! this is govermental tv. these two are different. cinema is not free but tv programs are. if don't beleve me, ask in persian wikipedia, or maybe you can check this irib in wikipedia Shahryarsee (talk) 14:26, 31 March 2020 (UTC)

It seems that the Iranian goverment is indeed the copyright holder, but, from what I can see, the woks owned by the Iranian goverment are not in Public Domain, and the copyright of 30 years after publication still applies. Christian Ferrer ^(talk) 14:35, 31 March 2020 (UTC)

• I don't know how you're gonna translate it into your language, but [this] article clears it up. really we don't have copyright law for this kind of programs. i can provide more articles about this if you want, but I strongly recommend you to ask this from persian wikipedia admins or users. I'm telling the truth. Shahryarsee (talk) 15:01, 31 March 2020 (UTC)

I have converted the "no permission" tag into a deletion request, see Commons:Deletion requests/File:Alireza amirghasemi.jpg, and I also notified a few Persian language administrators. Now if you want to add comments you should do it directly in the deletion request page, in order that the administrator who will close the request be aware of your comment(s).

POTY

Hi. I see you are an organizer. I didn't even know this year's competition had started. Something seriously wrong with this year's communication. There's nothing on the FP page which is crazy. I never go to the home page. And t's really difficult to find the results. Charlesjsharp (talk) 08:39, 14 April 2020 (UTC)

• Hi, yes I'm listed as an organizer, but my participation was almost limited to help sorting the images before the contest has started. And if I participed it was by solidarity with my colleagues Zhuyifei1999 and Steinsplitter who, since two years, have run the contest, because there was nobody else, and specially Zhuyifei1999 who did a lot of work and who abandoned. Sorry, I can not help you very much. That being said the peoples involved in the FP process can participe to the organisation of the contest POTY for the next years, and maybe even take charge of the full organization, included all the communication around the contest.

deleted my pics that i own

Why were my pics deleted? I own them. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mjmja5 (talk • contribs) 16:54, 22 April 2020 (UTC)

I own these pictures. How can I upload them. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mjmja5 (talk • contribs) 16:57, 22 April 2020 (UTC)

• Why? because some of the files that I checked with google can be seen in the Web, some other are kind of scrrenshot, some others are so small that it is unbelievable that they are onw works, some others are upscalled copies of very small images (see my comment before).
• How? I don't think there is a way to upload those images. Christian Ferrer ^(talk) 19:41, 22 April 2020 (UTC)

Delete

Delete these images already! They're all copyright violations and what are you waiting for?! https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Deletion_requests/Files_uploaded_by_WikiFirearms 2600:1000:B053:6B29:E383:5CFD:140A:8A37

•  Done you're right, there is no need that another administrator look at this DR. It is obvious there is no evidences that copyright holders of the photos (usually the photographers) gave the explicit permissions needed to a publication here, under our specific licenses. Christian Ferrer ^(talk) 07:17, 26 April 2020 (UTC)

Hello, I found another image directly taken from IMFDB and posted here on Wiki. It's clearly copyrighted but the user listed as his own work. Feel free to delete it when you have the chance. Thanks 108.20.216.21 https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Steyr-AUG.jpeg
