Hello!

This representation of a coat of arms is potentially different from the one used by the armiger (municipality or organisation) in question.
 = 

“Sable, a lion
rampant or”
This coat of arms was drawn based on its blazon which – being a written description – is free from copyright. Any illustration conforming with the blazon of the arms is considered to be heraldically correct. Thus several different artistic interpretations of the same coat of arms can exist. Sometimes, the design officially used by the armiger is likely protected by copyright, in which case it cannot be used here.
Individual representations of a coat of arms, drawn from a blazon, may have a copyright belonging to the artist, but are not necessarily derivative works.

Hi Elisfkc. I removed two of your entries to the photo challenge since they were taken by a different photographer who is not on Commons. Entries are only for your own photos. -- Colin (talk) 17:07, 15 May 2016 (UTC)

@Colin: I did not know that. I'll take my submission out of the hats photo challenge as well then. Elisfkc (talk) 17:08, 15 May 2016 (UTC)

Hello

This file is under cc-by 4.0 licence. ¿Why do you want to delete it? --Mr. Moonlight (talk) 20:30, 18 May 2016 (UTC)

You didn't provide the source of where the file comes from. Elisfkc (talk) 20:42, 18 May 2016 (UTC)

Well, another licence police.

Whats about old fashioned talk?? Pfff --Arch (talk) 17:55, 19 May 2016 (UTC)

@Arch: hi there. I am a licence reviewer, so it is my job to actually see if the licenses on images are correct. The reason I tagged a couple of your images, including File:Euert van Wisscell.svg & File:Hermen van Wittene.svg with the wrong license template is that the images seem to be something that are reproductions of an older work. This means that the images you have created should be licensed as public domain and not as a CC-BY-SA-3.0. This would still allow them on Commons, but would just provide different permissions to it. The wrong license template does NOT flag the image for deletion, rather it just means that someone should review it to see if that is the correct license. Personally, I only use the template when I believe a file is under the wrong free license and should be under another free license. I hope this helps explain to you why I tagged those two images as such. --Elisfkc (talk) 18:03, 19 May 2016 (UTC)
Its not your job, you're not getting payed by this. Some people can made mistakes that are very easy to solve. Show a little humanity next time and look who made those uploads, I'm almost 10 years uploading, somethimes things can go wrong, its a lot more friendly if you open a topic on my talkpage than smashing with tags. I'm not a newbie anymore, but still a human. Humans can made errors, ok? Take a look at it now, they're ok now. I was experimenting with the "fine" upload tool that is not OK for this kind of uploads. --Arch (talk) 18:07, 19 May 2016 (UTC)
It might not be my job, but it is something I volunteered to do, and I enjoy reviewing others images. The tags are a way to open a discussion about the images, which is why it also leaves a message on your talk page. I understand you are human, but part of being human is learning from mistakes. I did not know about the experimenting, but enjoy doing that and good luck. --Elisfkc (talk) 18:10, 19 May 2016 (UTC)
Like I'm volunteer to, uploaded more than 5000 svg's, thousands of pictures, wich cost me lots of time. Its the collaboration that should made it fun. This way feels like counteraction, do you understand? Its so much more fun to open a talkpage with a question, you will learn to meet other people on a much more constructive way. Did you look in the meanwhile? Is it OK now? --Arch (talk) 18:14, 19 May 2016 (UTC)
Seems fine to me, but what do they represent? --Elisfkc (talk) 18:16, 19 May 2016 (UTC)
I'm glad to! :) They're 600 year old coats of arms, most family's are extinct after 600 years, its pure cultural history. I guess that in the future this complete medieval book can be very valuable for all kinds of topics on Wikipedia, specially Northern Europe, England, Scotland, France, Belgium, Netherlands and parts of Germany. Some must be identified, this is very exciting. --Arch (talk) 18:21, 19 May 2016 (UTC)

Technically, a CC licence is totally ok in this case because even if the images are reproductions of public domain paintings, the SVG code is copyrightable on its own. So unless Arch made his recreations using a totally automated program without his own input, he is entitled to licence his files as copyrighted Creative Commons. De728631 (talk) 18:36, 19 May 2016 (UTC)

Oh, I didn't realize that. I'm sorry Arch, that is my mistake. --Elisfkc (talk) 18:37, 19 May 2016 (UTC)
Don't worry. SVG copyright is a little known thing and it's not really enforced on Commons either; so on the other hand there are thousands of similar public domain SVG files where the creators could theoretically claim copyright but just licensed their files with PD-old or something. De728631 (talk) 18:42, 19 May 2016 (UTC)
@Elisfkc, it OK, I'm sorry too for my hard response, I see you did responded very civilized to it, so compliments! @De728631 tnx for expaination. Indeed, the images are moren than 600 years old and in public domain, and yes, its possible that creators can made new files from images wich are not in de PD. I think that the problem is "Upload Wizard", its asking of the material is "own work", most not English speaking people will think: Yes, I made it myself, so this is ok. Than it will say to put it under CC4 (Anyone may use, share or remix this work, as long as they credit me and share any derivative work under this license.) so, you think, ok. In the next part it wil ask for description, date (very important!!!???) and category. Not a word about "source". I've tried Upload Wizzard, becausse my old Commonist isn't working anymore, and It cost me more time to upload, than made the files. But I can understand that another is questioning the strange licensing. I scrathed behind my head for a while, but uploads a day earlier went well. I did change them in the meanwhile to prevent the same trouble in the future. Well, case closed. Wiches you both a swell evening. Regards, --Arch (talk) 19:19, 19 May 2016 (UTC)

Dear Elisfkc,

Wikimedia Commons is happy to announce that the second round of the 2015 Picture of the Year competition is now open. This year will be the tenth edition of the annual Wikimedia Commons photo competition, which recognizes exceptional contributions by users on Wikimedia Commons. Wikimedia users are invited to vote for their favorite images featured on Commons during the last year (2015) to produce a single Picture of the Year.

Hundreds of images that have been rated Featured Pictures by the international Wikimedia Commons community in the past year were entered in this competition. These images include professional animal and plant shots, breathtaking panoramas and skylines, restorations of historical images, photographs portraying the world's best architecture, impressive human portraits, and so much more.

There are two total rounds of voting. In the first round, you voted for as many images as you liked. In Round 1, there were 1322 candidate images. There are 56 finalists in Round 2, comprised of the top 30 overall as well as the top #1 and #2 from each sub-category.

Logos

Before tagging a logo for speedy deletion, please check first if the logo is simple. If it is too simple, then don't tag it. If it is simple but debatable, nominate it for deletion. If it is obviously complicated, then prepend with {{Logo}} (not {{subst:logo}}!). You just tagged a too simple logo (File:WALL·E Logo.svg) for speedy deletion, and I removed it. You also tagged some debatable logos (like File:Finding Nemo logo.svg) for speedy deletion instead of nominating it for deletion. Please review COM:TOO first before you tag more logos for speedy deletion. Thanks, Poké95 03:30, 24 May 2016 (UTC)

Hi Elisfkc. Sorry if I've overloaded your routines... for the future I'll use the tool you've indicated to me. For the cropped file, I asked at the village pump, and I tought I was ok to upload the orginal one, with watermark, and the cropped one, without. For the future, I'll upload the watermarked one, and than cropped & overwrite it (is it ok?). Tks, mac 12:04, 26 May 2016 (UTC)

Hello I uploaded an own with elements of other file as you can see at the infobox. Could you explain me the reason why the licence is wrong in your opinion? It is not a copy. Thanks so much --Heralder (talk) 18:14, 26 May 2016 (UTC)

I didn't see that you added your own parts to it. I thought it was just a coat of arms that's been in use for a while. Elisfkc (talk) 18:15, 26 May 2016 (UTC)
This coat of arms as others are widely reproduced and it is not an exact copy (a clear violation). It is not an original design created in the article, it can be seen in different works: [3] [4] [5]
Please check:

File:Text no copy violation COA Linares.png

  • 1 This design appears in other works, so with an own design this coat of arms is accepted
  • 2 See the crown is different (the base, stones and plates are clear different)
  • 3 See the different lines of the console (external element)
  • 4 Different type of letters and crosses
  • 5 Different shell design
  • 6 Logenze and castle clear from , it is shown at the infobox

It is not a copy violation of this work as these examples done by different authors (also respected by me) [6] [7] [8]. --Heralder (talk) 18:44, 26 May 2016 (UTC)

Copyright violations

Hi, I just want to say that I'm guessing the people who uploaded the two Owen Hart pictures to Flickr didn't know that the copyright they taged was incorrect. In heighsight I should probably have realized that they were both promotional pictures, but I got way too enthusiastic when I found more pictures of that person since they're hard to find. I wasn't trying to cheat or anything. Sorry.*Treker (talk) 04:19, 28 May 2016 (UTC)

Hello Elisfkc, You have tagged 2 of my pictures indicating that they were missing source information. I have indicated that they are from www.francetopo.fr and it is clearly written (in French) under the presentation tab that the maps are free to use : "Le site FranceTopo.fr propose une cartographie de la France, gratuite et sous licence libre, essentiellement basée sur la mission SRTM de la NASA (pour le relief) et le projet de cartographie collaborative OpenStreetMap (pour tout le reste).» So these files should not be deleted from wikimedia. I have perhaps made a mistake in the information provided. can you help me modifying that, or should I replace the files with maps from OpenStreetMap? Thanks

Hi

Thanks for that :) I must have been confused... And a question about FlickreviewR 2: Amir Farshad Ebrahimi, the original uploader of this photo, is on the bad authors list. But I googled the photos from same day and they seen original. Not agency photos or copyvio I think. --Logom (talk) 20:58, 3 June 2016 (UTC)

@Logom: not a problem. The bad authors list means that the Flickr user has been known to upload files that they do not have a right to license, and then they freely license the file. This causes a copyrighted file to make it past the review bot. It does not mean that file is a copyright violation, it just means that there is a chance it is licensed wrong. Elisfkc (talk) 21:10, 3 June 2016 (UTC)

Categorisation

Hi,

I appreciate your concern regarding categorisation. However, I think it's only fair to point out that I'm aware of this (and in fact generally quite fastidious on the matter!).

The reason this image wasn't categorised straight away is that I'm in the middle of transferring a number of images from Flickr and it's easier to categorise these in bulk *after* they've all been uploaded.

Five minutes after upload is probably a bit too quick off the mark, to be honest; it's generally more helpful to leave it a while and see if the user is planning to categorise it after they've finished doing what they're doing.

All the best,

Flickr License Review - Let the robots do the hard work! :-)

Hi again,

I noticed that you License-reviewd the file Commodore MAX BASIC manual and cartridge.jpg; this is appreciated, but the FlickreviewR 2 bot usually does that automatically for Flickr imports (typically within a few minutes or under an hour).

The bot does seem to occasionally get confused (and fail) when fetching the licenses from Flickr. This seems to require manual intervention. If you're interested in dealing with Flickr imports, it's probably a better use of your time to find out how you can help there.

I'm not an expert in that area, but you can probably find out how to do that from some more experienced reviewers and administrators.

All the best, Ubcule (talk) 21:45, 26 June 2016 (UTC)

@Ubcule: thought I saw that the review bot had failed to review it & wanted a human review. That's why I did that, thanks for pointing it out. Elisfkc (talk) 21:52, 26 June 2016 (UTC)
The bot usually leaves an entry in the history if it's failed to review. Even so, like I said, there are probably easier ways to check, but you'll have to ask someone who's more involved with that than I am!
All the best, Ubcule (talk) 21:54, 26 June 2016 (UTC)

Flickr Review US Embassies..

Why did you tag so many images from US embassies for 'flickrreview'? You do realise most images from US embassies are not tagged under the appropriate licence on flickr right? so a n00b licence reviewer who doesn't know this will tag if for deletion right? I don't have the time to fix your 100's of mistakes, go fix them yourself, 99% of all images taken from US embassies flickr accounts will all be under non-free licences because firstly, there is no "PD-USGOV" option on flickr for them to keep in in the right licence as "US Government Work" licence is chosen by flickr for limited flickr accounts only....and also, regardless of what licence they are under on Flickr, as long as its an image taken by an employee of the US Embassy, it will fall under PD-USGov so there is never a need to 'review' theses images manually as it will create a waste of time which can be spent reviewing other images which need proper checking....--Stemoc 00:33, 27 June 2016 (UTC)

@Stemoc: That's why I tagged the images for license review instead. Elisfkc (talk) 00:35, 27 June 2016 (UTC)
yes, after 'flickrreview' failed...they basically cannot be reviewed, go try out one.....this will either create more problems or more issues, a category for it being part of the US Embassy would have sufficed, which you have added, there was nothing more that should have been done..again, they cannot be reviewed because we do not have the right templates to do so..--Stemoc 00:47, 27 June 2016 (UTC)..
@Stemoc: I am confused. How can they not be reviewed by a license reviewer (not flickr review, but license review)? And isn't the license template (which I think you are asking about) PD-USGov-DOS, since the embassies are a part of the State Department? Elisfkc (talk) 02:07, 27 June 2016 (UTC)
@Elisfkc: @Stemoc: Most of these have EXIF with info that confirms they're US Gov works. When I find those in the review cat, I usually just review/pass them as a formality, since I'm basically confirming that they're from a known/confirmed US Gov source and hence are PD-USGov, rather than than the Flickr licenses, which are invalid from a Commons standpoint. I've seen a few of these that don't have the usual EXIF details. A review of these is probably a good idea just to be safe, but I certainly wouldn't miss having to review the ones with full EXIF.

François mass DR

I had one of my own like this a couple years ago with a big mass DR of Ukrainian FoP stuff. I ended up going back through and doing mostly single DRs with author/date info when I could find it, which was pretty often since I could do the searches pretty well in Russian. It may be a bit tougher if you have no French beyond a few words as I do. You could always ask someone like Yann or Christian Ferrer if you really need help with some of these. Just a note - that "no valid reason for deletion" just means I was too fast to hit enter with DelReqHandler, and forgot to write up the rationale first...in case you wondered... INeverCry 19:25, 1 July 2016 (UTC)

@INeverCry: not a problem. I just wanted someone to make a decision on the images & for the uploader to understand the problem with many of the images. Thanks for the explanation and note. Elisfkc (talk) 19:32, 1 July 2016 (UTC)
Heh, FoP DRs aren't too popular, though at least we have the January 1st restoration party each new year. I've done the most DRs of Ukraine FoP cases on Commons, and I've closed/deleted the most Slovenian and Russian FoP DRs. I've had a couple of contentious threads here from my efforts and a long one on ru.wiki, where the nicest description of me was "a competent warehouseman"... INeverCry 19:38, 1 July 2016 (UTC)

Watermark in Copa Libertadores cropped.jpg

Hello Elisfkc, how are you? I notice you have add a tag to Copa Libertadores cropped.jpg, mentioning a watermark and/or a timestamp on the image. Could you please point to me where this watermark or timestamp is, so I could see if I could remove it myself? Thanks. Felipebini (talk) 00:00, 21 July 2016 (UTC)

Hi, sorry to bother you again. Perhaps the supposed watermark you referred to was the number "960" in the lower-right section? If that was so, that is not a watermark: as you can check on the original uncropped image in flickr, the structure behind the trophy had the numbers 1960 and 2009, referring to the first and (then) last years of the competition. If that was not the case, I would be thankful if you pointed out where is the watermark. Cheers. Felipebini (talk) 21:28, 26 July 2016 (UTC)

Hi, I saw that you put an advice on this file because it has not source. SO, I ask you for some help. I don't know how to use the Flickr template, so can you do it?

Flickr images

OK, I officially don't understand how to select Flickr images. All of the images I selected were commercial use. As an example, the file Etha Wragge says "Share — copy and redistribute the material in any medium or format for any purpose, even commercially. The licensor cannot revoke these freedoms as long as you follow the license terms." So long as the creator is attributed. I did not crop this file. The same is true of the Melo Trible picture.I think in some of the other cases I may have cropped pictures I wasn't supposed to, but generic notification templates do not help a Commons user learn this stuff. Rikster2 (talk) 10:01, 9 August 2016 (UTC)

@Rikster2: Commons:Flickr files should help you understand which licenses are ok for Commons and which are not. Elisfkc (talk) 17:35, 9 August 2016 (UTC)

Patroller

I've given you the patroller right. A lot of the files we review are uploaded by non-autopatrolled users. When you do license reviews, check under the license. You'll often see a little link that says "mark this edit as patrolled". You might as well since you're reviewing it. You can also mark galleries and other pages edited by non-autopatrolled users as patrolled if they come in your way. Don't go out of your way or put yourself out though.

US Air Force image

You are a licence reviewed, so you could have just fixed it like I did, instead of doing this. Ww2censor (talk) 19:15, 16 August 2016 (UTC)

@Ww2censor: it's my upload, so I thought I wasn't allowed to review it. Elisfkc (talk) 19:16, 16 August 2016 (UTC)
Ah, that's true. However you could have just left it alone and the failed Flickreview would have prompted someone to deal with it. It might be better to consider uploading directly from the USAF website and using the appropriate template like I do and avoid the whole Flickr review altogether. They really don't even really require review. Thanks anyway. Ww2censor (talk) 19:20, 16 August 2016 (UTC)
I changed it to license review to make sure that someone else didn't just delete it without seeing the fact that it was from the Air Force. The reason I do it from Flickr is that it's easier for me. Elisfkc (talk) 19:23, 16 August 2016 (UTC)
If they are good reviewers they will know that US government work is PD, and as I suggested, it may be easier for you but the Flickr upload, in these instances just gives everyone more work when there is already enough copyright work to be dealt with, but you decide. I've saved a lot of these but it takes some time to do so. Of course I could just not bother and do something else. Cheers Ww2censor (talk) 22:02, 16 August 2016 (UTC)

Critically evaluate Flickr licenses
File:Tina Fey (7334208146).jpg has been marked as a copyright violation. You may have preserved the information shown on Flickr correctly when transferring the image here, but the Flickr uploader is not the copyright holder of this image. Either the image was created by someone else, or it is a derivative of someone else's work. As stated in Commons:Licensing, only the copyright holder may issue a license, so the one shown on Flickr is invalid. Always remember to critically evaluate Flickr licenses. Photostreams with professional-looking photographs, album covers, posters, and images in a wide range of styles or quality taken by many different cameras often indicate that the Flickr uploader either does not understand or does not care about copyright matters. See Commons:Questionable Flickr images for a list of known bad Flickr users.

Do you think it is possible to use an image from an american book dated 1854 in Google book, copied with a screenshot and transformed in Photoshop, in order to transfer it in Commons ? I think it belongs to public domain, the drawer is anonymous.

Aucorsa photo

Please put the photo back. Chemcoes (talk) 13:49, 26 October 2016 (UTC)

@Chemcoes: first off, the image was not properly sourced. Second, it was a copyright violation, since it was a logo. Third, now that the image is deleted, I do not have the ability to restore it. Elisfkc (talk) 15:06, 26 October 2016 (UTC)
Translated with Google Translate:
Español: En primer lugar, la imagen no era originario correctamente. En segundo lugar, se trataba de una violación de derechos de autor, ya que era un logotipo. En tercer lugar, ahora que se borre la imagen, no tengo la capacidad para restaurarlo.
Elisfkc (talk) 15:06, 26 October 2016 (UTC)
But the original photo is just an Aucorsa's bus with the logo printed, I just cut the rest and let de logo. Otherwise, how can I add a logo without violating copyright? Thanks, and sorry if I was rude, it wasn't my intention. Chemcoes (talk) 14:41, 28 October 2016 (UTC)
@Chemcoes: you can't add a logo without violating copyright. Elisfkc (talk) 01:22, 29 October 2016 (UTC)
@Elisfkc: and how articles like Sony has the logo on it? Chemcoes (talk) 18:24, 29 October 2016 (UTC)
@Chemcoes: because the Sony logo is under the Threshold of originality Elisfkc (talk) 01:07, 30 October 2016 (UTC)

about wrong licence on some pictures

Hi,

see User_talk:The_Titou bottom , there 4 picture which you say the licence is incorrect . But on this picture, there is a template {{self|cc-by-sa-4.0|GFDL}}! I dont understand . Make what you want with those images but please attention only onFile:Infiltration.jpg because is used on main space on wp:fr - regards --Titou (talk) 04:28, 2 November 2016 (UTC)

@The Titou:
English: You said that the licenses were CC-BY-SA-4.0 and GNU Free 1.2, because you released them. However, the images are screenshots of Wikipedia, which is licensed as CC-BY-SA-3.0. You need to replace {{self|cc-by-sa-4.0|GFDL}} with {{Wikimedia screenshot}}. I am translating this into French using Google Translate, since that seems to your primary language, but I do not speak it.
Français : Vous avez dit que les licences étaient CC-BY-SA-4.0 et GNU Free 1.2, parce que vous les avez libérées. Cependant, les images sont des captures d'écran de Wikipedia, qui est autorisé sous le nom de CC-BY-SA-3.0. Vous devez remplacer {self|cc-by-sa-4.0|GFDL}} avec {{Wikimedia screenshot}}. Je traduis cela en français en utilisant Google Translate, car cela semble à votre langue principale, mais je ne le parle pas.
