deletion of How's Doves' Cry

How's Doves' Cry is not outside the educational scope of Commons; it is a public domain file intended to be reused in future derivative artistic works of varying media (and thus imperative for artists contributing to the project). The film's educational presence is particularly significant because it is so unique; Commons:Project Scope states that "Where a subject is rare and/or difficult to capture, even a poor-quality file may be of significant educational value, especially if Commons has very few or no similar files already." The idea of a living artistic movement composed directly out of the human capital that alters it is novel, and the medium in which this idea is presented is distinct. Additionally, there are no other files pertaining to the How's Doves' Cry movement on Commons, making the preservation of the film itself a valuable source of information on a topic about which little is known.

Sorry, but other people may have different opinions about art or even not consider particular media as such. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 19:18, 19 January 2021 (UTC)

Personal distaste for a work does not make it any less educational. I do not understand how the file is out of compliance with Commons policy.--Davidedgemon02 (talk) 20:10, 19 January 2021 (UTC)

Image Bruno Bertin et Logo des albums

Bonjour, j'ai remarqué que vous aviez enlevé les logos des albums de Bruno Bertin et que vous vous apprétiez à enlever ma photographie de l'auteur. Pour quelles raisons vous permettez vous cela ? Merci. Dinkley (talk) 14:46, 29 November 2020 (UTC)

Sorry, I don't know French :-( Please read Commons:Derivative works. Characters are not needed to illustrate article about artist, so you must remove them from photo if you want to keep it. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 14:42, 29 November 2020 (UTC)

Deletion of "File:Qjob logo.webp"

@EugeneZelenko: A letter from the copyright owner was sent today at 17:14 UTC +2 to permissions-hu@wikimedia.org upon the copyright permission. I have the copy of the letter, too. If I am not mistaken today was the 6th day for the permission to be sent, so the file was deleted too early. I have asked for undeletion of the file using the form on Commons:Undeletion requests.

About deletion of photos uploaded by BarbaraLuciano13

About https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/User_talk:BarbaraLuciano13#Avviso_di_immagine_in_cancellazione

Hi EugeneZelenko I tried to understand with the Italian Wikipedia desk where is the problem for the photos you contested. Consequently, I asked to be officially authorized, with a document uploaded on Andrea Benetti's websites, to use the copyright of the photos in question. https://andreabenetti.com/assets/files/authorization-use-photo.pdf - https://www.andreabenetti.eu/assets/files/authorization-use-photo.pdf I specify that the copyright of these photos is partly mine and partly of Andrea Benetti, who authorizes me to upload them to Wikimedia Commons and use them as I see fit, even on Wikipedia. I await your opinion. If the documents I provide are not enough, I ask you what I can do to ensure that the photos are not deleted. Thank you and sorry my bad english, but I'm translating with google translate,

You could upload photos in original resolution with EXIF to proof your authorship.

Permission from Andrea Benetti tells nothing about terms of use. Particular license(s) must be mentioned. Better way would be to ask Andrea Benetti to send permissions to Commons:OTRS (example: Commons:Email templates). Then you could ask help on Commons:OTRS/Noticeboard with permissions review.

How to convert images to SVG for free ???

@EugeneZelenko: Hi. I received your message about using SVG format for simple graphics, and I`m trying to do that... I use GIMP for images, and it doesn't let me to export as SVG... I`m trying to convert the technical drawing of the w:.350 Remington Magnum from here, to upload it on Commons and have tried some "online conversions", but they all loose much of the already poor quality... What do you suggest ? Thanks. --Marcric (talk) 14:24, 19 September 2020 (UTC)

Copyright status: File:Plan11.jpg

This media may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading File:Plan11.jpg. I notice that the file page either doesn't contain enough information about the license or it contains contradictory information about the license, so the copyright status is unclear. If you created this file yourself, then you must provide a valid copyright tag. For example, you can tag it with {{self|GFDL|cc-by-sa-all}} to release it under the multi-license GFDL plus Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike All-version license or you can tag it with {{PD-self}} to release it into the public domain. (See Commons:Copyright tags for the full list of license tags that you can use.) If you did not create the file yourself or if it is a derivative of another work that is possibly subject to copyright protection, then you must specify where you found it (e.g. usually a link to the web page where you got it), you must provide proof that it has a license that is acceptable for Commons (e.g. usually a link to the terms of use for content from that page), and you must add an appropriate license tag. If you did not create the file yourself and the specific source and license information is not available on the web, you must obtain permission through the VRT system and follow the procedure described there. Note that any unsourced or improperly licensed files will be deleted one week after they have been marked as lacking proper information, as described in criteria for deletion. If you have uploaded other files, please confirm that you have provided the proper information for those files, too. If you have any questions about licenses please ask at Commons:Village pump/Copyright or see our help pages. Thank you.

Hey! The source of the image is indicated there already. I took it from a book years ago. The quality is also not perfect and I have no idea anymore about the copyright. Is there any template for those cases or should I delete the image? Thanks for your help Saitcank 19:04, 20 September 2020 (UTC)

It's not obvious. If source is book, is it really licenses under terms of {{CC-0}}? --EugeneZelenko (talk) 14:17, 21 September 2020 (UTC)

Commons - Media Sarch, new feedback round

Greetings,

I'm following up on a message from earlier in the year about the prototype development for Special:MediaSearch. Based on community feedback, the Structured Data team has developed some new features for Special:MediaSearch and are seeking another round of comments and discussions about the tool. Commons:Structured_data/Media_search is updated with details about the new features plus some other development information, and feedback is welcome on Commons talk:Structured_data/Media_search. Media Search works in any language, so the team would especially appreciate input around support for languages other than English. I look forward to reading about what you think. -- Keegan (WMF) (talk) 20:05, 23 September 2020 (UTC)

Question about "Source of derivative work is not properly indicated: File:Palatul Culturii din Iași.webm"

Hello!

I received a copyright notification about this film: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Palatul_Culturii_din_Ia%C8%99i.webm I understand that it is a derivative work, but I don't see which underlying work should be mentioned.

• It's the music? It has a free license from YouTube Audio Library: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LtLqFJedMa0&ab_channel=MusicLover%E2%80%93NoCopyrightMusic

© Licence: You’re free to use this song in any of your videos.

• It's the historical information displayed in the video?

• Or the filmed objects?

The filming was done entirely by me.

Thank you in advance! Andrei Vaida

I meant music. I think You’re free to use this song in any of your videos is ambiguous. For example, what if music will be used outside video? Could it be modified? Such questions must be clearly answered, so question about (in)compatibility with Commons:Licensing too. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 14:11, 24 September 2020 (UTC)

OK, thank you. I will try to fill in the required information or to change the music. Andrei Lucian Vaida

UPDATE: I changed the music but I couldn't update the file because the "Upload a new version of this file" page does not allow uploading files larger than 100MB. I have re-uploaded the film here. I hope everything is fine with the new one. Andrei Lucian Vaida 15:18, 6 May 2024 (UTC)

I think you should use plain Creative Commons license without {{Self}}, because you combined two works together. Sure, video footage should be credited to you. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 13:34, 27 September 2020 (UTC)

It's not only the footage but also the editing (which can be an artistic and complex part), so the music is just 1/3 of the work. There are other videos that use other creator's music and have the "self" license. For this reason I think it's fine with {{Self}}, but if I miss something please let me know and I'll make the changes. Andrei Lucian Vaida 15:18, 6 May 2024 (UTC)

I don't think that proportions are matter. Fact of different works combination is. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 13:54, 28 September 2020 (UTC)

I understand. {{Self}} removed. Thank you for the support! Andrei Lucian Vaida 15:18, 6 May 2024 (UTC)

I believe this message means that I need copyright proof for the music? I edited and added the links, I'm new to wikimedia and don't really understand/find everything here. Thank you!

Yes, if was because of music. Actually resulting combined work could not have less restrictive license then any of its parts and could not be claimed own. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 14:33, 30 September 2020 (UTC)

Thank you for your answer. Could you tell me what is to be done next? I have added the music source (CC BY).

Nomination of Khethukuthula Mbonambi image for deletion.

Hi, I've recently noted that you flagged my image as a possible copyright violation. Your reasons are that the file is too small to be the original and that the EXIF data is missing. How do I go about proving that the abovementioned image is owned completely by yours truly? I am a photojournalist and some of my images go through numerous editing softwares that may sonetimes tinker with the Exif/Metadata other encoded information I can gladly provide the original/ RAW version of this image as it is still available in my Hard-Drive.

Please do respond as soon as possible. Thank you for your concern. Mightyprof7 (talk) 21:51, 7 October 2020 (UTC)

Deleted images

There are many images of logos of Romanian and Moldovan political parties in Commons, all of them with a valid license. Why were the ones I uploaded deleted? What is a "non-trivial logo"? And how many have you deleted? I have only been notified of 3 but at least a fourth one has been deleted too without notifying me. Super Dromaeosaurus (talk) 16:26, 10 October 2020 (UTC)

I deleted all logos with non-trivial design (i. e. copyrightable). It doesn't make too much sense to make multiple notifications for same problem. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 14:07, 11 October 2020 (UTC)

But why are all the logos in those categories allowed and not the ones I uploaded? Would the problem be solved if I used the same license as those files? Super Dromaeosaurus (talk) 11:46, 12 October 2020 (UTC)

Logos that remain in aforementioned categories has trivial design and fall under {{PD-textlogo}}. Files upload by you and later deleted are not. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 14:14, 12 October 2020 (UTC)

Восстановление файлов [Ticket#2020100510003985]

Уважаемый господин Зеленко!

Выражаю сожаление в связи с тем, что не смог оперативно отреагировать на Ваше предупреждение, поскольку недостаточно знаком с процедурой размещения фотографий на Викискладе и был совершенно уверен, что поставив галочку в графе, подтверждающей что все эти фотографии из моего личного архива и я разрешаю их использование, я выполнил все необходимые требования.

5 октября я отправил файл с разрешениями [Ticket#2020100510003985]

на адрес Wikimedia Permissions <permissions-ru@wikimedia.org>

со следующим сопроводительным письмом (см ниже).

Прошу пояснить мне каким образом можно восстановить фотографии в статье и на Викискладе. За истекшие дни никаких положительных изменений не произошло.

Сопроводительное письмо:

Уважаемые Дамы Господа, Направляю мое разрешение на использование фотографий из моего личного архива, принадлежащих мне , в Википедии. Фотографии были добровольно и сознательно переданы мной на Викисклад для иллюстрации статьи обо мне в Википедии: Статья Заславский Илья Иосифович. При этом я добросовестно заполнил графу с подтверждением того, что это мои фотографии и как я понял правила в таком случае Разрешение не требуется вовсе, однако фотографии были по непонятной мне причине устранены ботом, что весьма скверно сказалось на качестве оформления статьи. Вместе с фото пропали и мои авторские подписи под ними, которые , как я полагаю, несли небезинтересную для читателя информацию, поскольку статья все же про меня, а не про ботов. Убедительно прошу их восстановить. С уважением, Илья Иосифович Заславский, В прошлом - депутат, сопредседатель ДемРоссии, замминистра и пр. Ilya Zaslavskiy (talk) 13:49, 12 October 2020 (UTC)

Incorrect template

Hello, I am Turkish Wikipedia patrol. I am using translation there may be mistakes. You said permission is required for this file. If you have proof that it was taken from somewhere, remove it. The picture belongs to me. This picture is not the album cover art. I ask you to remove the template. Have a nice day. --ChiefBera (talk) 18:17, 13 October 2020 (UTC)

Vasyl Lomachenko Vs. Teofimo Lopez

I saw that you deleted the boxing poster that I uploaded to Wikipedia. What is the issue with this poster? I know that it is not fair use, but no boxing posters are. The boxing posters of Deontay Wilder Vs. Tyson Fury, Floyd Mayweather Vs. Canelo Alvarez, etc... are all still up. LaDanian1000000 (talk) 17:06, 16 October 2020 (UTC)

Please read Commons:Licensing carefully. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 18:11, 16 October 2020 (UTC)

For example, the poster for Wilder Fury II was not fair use, but it was allowed to stay up because "Previous publication.

Threat of deletion

Hello Eugene Zelenko, you want to delete a lot of pictures, I am not very familiar with copyrights (for example with old stamps, brochures or book covers; what about the file File:S-Bahnhof Prenzlauer Allee 1982.jpg, of which I own the original work, or several files "Haus am Samithsee", one is File:Haus am Samithsee 4.jpg, which I took from old postcards, all 90 years old, and so on ...); maybe you are right; but remember one thing: the "letter quotes on memorial"- for instance: File:Chaim Letter Quote on Memorial.jpg - theses pictures are small image excerpts from larger images, some of which I took years ago myself, maybe we could keep them because they are important for the respective Wikipedia article, Grüße aus Old Germany Krank-Hover (talk) 15:57, 18 October 2020 (UTC)

You could not claim copyrights ownership for other people works. However, it's fine to mention that you scanned/photographed such works. You need to provide proper source information and use proper license tags if works are in public domain. See Commons:Copyright rules by territory for relevant country. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 14:19, 19 October 2020 (UTC)

Deletions

I am another one who is not familiar with copy rights. I've been on Wikipedia for many years to know what I can upload and what not in Commons. Asking to "prove the free authorship of the image" has the same value as asking "that I am not the author." There are many photo files in my private collections so I have added PD-self template. Thanks for your attention and mostb kind of understanding. These are images that don't even appear on Google! JUST SEARCH! I beg you, please, remove the templates.--Gilwellian (talk) 17:02, 18 October 2020 (UTC)

Just added templates as well as comments in discussion pages. Let me know if they are enough.--Gilwellian (talk) 17:46, 18 October 2020 (UTC)

About: File:Nibelungentreue.ogg

Thanks for your input on the language prefix, @EugeneZelenko: . Unfortunately, I did not find a model that addresses the issue of variations. I thought I could add the language prefix and then add the number 2 at the end of the file, but I cannot rename the file. Neither do I know if this was the right way of going about it, anyway. So, can you tell me how to deal with variations (in this case the pronunciation is changing and there are two options with different frequencies) in terms of naming conventions. Also, can you point me at an instruction that would tell me how to change the file name or have it changed? --Horatiorama (talk) 20:57, 21 October 2020 (UTC)

I think any kind of unique prefix is fine, but will be good idea to make it distinct from word/phrase, for example, by putting it in round brackets. There are also alternative naming convention originated from https://lingualibre.org. See Category:Lingua Libre pronunciation. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 13:54, 22 October 2020 (UTC)

About Deletion requests for all the pictures I have uploaded???

Dear EugeneZelenko,

What's wrong with these pictures I uploaded since last April? It must be a mistake. I don’t understand why you're asking to delete all of the pictures I have uploaded. I have followed and respected all the request informations to upload them properly, the way Wikimedia Commons is asking. I have given all the proper links (when available on the Internet) or book references for all of them, to let know where I had found them. Also, most of these pictures are allready on the "Public Domain", some for very very very long time, and are published here and there and everywhere on the Internet. Most of these were found in Canadian Government's, Public's and Newspaper's Archives sites, with all the datas linked to them. If you click on their links you'll see exactly where I've found them, with all the datas. And you’re telling me that none of these pictures have the sufficient right to be published? It looks very impossible to give more information or the author's rights about all of these pictures. One of the picture is about 100 years old. Come onǃ I hope you'll considere my request, and not delete these pictures, please. If so, it would be practically impossible to upload any picture to Wkimedia Commons, or is it that most of the pictures allready in Wikipedia and all over the Internet should be deleted? For me, it makes absolutely no sens at all. Even the logo of a political party, if it tells the references where it was taken... Also, look at these following references that I have found for these two picturesː File:William_Kashtan_1978.jpg https://www.torontopubliclibrary.ca/detail.jsp?Entt=RDMDC-TSPA_0058965F&R=DC-TSPA_0058965F and File:Gilles Hénault musée d'art contemporain.jpg https://numerique.banq.qc.ca/patrimoine/details/52327/3163923?docsearchtext=Gilles%2520H%25C3%25A9nault Is it really possible to give more information about these, or have a letter to release the rights? Is it really necessary, after giving all of the information that goes with it, name of the photographer, date it was taken, links on the Internet, etc., when possible? For some instance, it's impossible to find the name of the author, because it pertains to a Newspaper Archives, and it remains anonymous, they don't even remember themselves who took it. And how come, you considere that all of my pictures were not done properly? Not even one is saved from your requests. That's a great mysterious for me...

Yours sincerely,

Creative Commons licenses are artifact of 21th century. Availability of photos in archives doesn't assume that they are not pretected by copyrights. However photos may be in public domain by other reasons. See Commons:Copyright rules by territory for relevant country. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 18:21, 22 October 2020 (UTC)

Also, how can I get the authorization for a recent picture from a Newspaper? I just looked at the Toronto Star, for the picture or File:Naomi Rankin.jpg, and I've found the following informationː How do I get permission to reprint an article or page?

"All usage of articles, pages, headlines and excerpts from the Toronto Star, including logo and branding, must be licensed through PARS International Corp. PARS International Corp. also produces plaques, posters and hardcopy reprints of the Toronto Star. You can get a quote from www.parsintl.com/permissions or www.torontostarreprints.com."

Do I have to pay personally for every picture I want to publish in Wikimedia Commons/Wikipedia̠? Or is it possible to have only the authorization to publish it in Wikipedia? Sorry, but I'm still learning how to do things in this site. I'm really happy to collaborate to this universal project, but if I have to pay for the voluntary work I'm doing, I think it's not really fair. I'm allready giving a small donation yearly, and still have a lot of projects to do in this site.

As for this picture File:William Kashtan 1978.jpg, I just contacted the Toronto Public Library. I wonder how long they will take to give me a satisfactory answer so I can give you the licence, or the letter, or the authorization, or what ever... I have about 21 pictures, it's probably going to take me more than 7 days to get all these authorizations. I have work to do also, I'm not retired and volunteering full time in Wikipedia, unless you pay me to do it. I do it for pleasure, but as a hobby, for personal interests. Please give me more time to get these authorizations, as I have other things to do too.

Please read basics about copyrights law. Copyrights law of your country is also good source of information. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 14:01, 23 October 2020 (UTC)

Hi. I answered you in my talk page. Now your turn.Salar-Faraji 2001 (talk) 07:10, 25 October 2020 (UTC)

Dear Eugene, I just notice that in other pages sometimes it's possible to use the option "Fair Use". May be I didn't choose the right option for the pcitures I uploaded. For example, for political logo of the File:Communist Party of Quebec logo.png, I tried to copy it from the English article, and paste it in the French page, but it never worked though, I can't explain know why. So that's why I decided to upload it again. Sometimes it works, and sometimes it doesn't. I don't know how to change the option or to fix that. Maybe you could help me with that, because this logo is exactly the same that's in the English page. And regarding the pictures from the “Toronto Star”, I contacted them, they answered me, and I'm working on that too. They gave me another contact, which it suppose to be the right one. I just need a little bit more time, please. I don't have to much experience in the field of uploading images. I allready translated a few pages from English to French, but it's not as complicated than do upload pictures. Hope you'll understand me. I tried to do the best I could. I'm still learning. :)

Non-free media (== fair use) is not allowed on Commons. See Commons:Licensing. But such media is allowed on some WMF projects like English Wikipedia (may be French Wikipedia too, but I'm not sure), so you could upload such files there locally. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 14:16, 27 October 2020 (UTC)

Files downloaded by me were deleted

Excuse me, Mr Eugene Zelenko, these my files were deleted. Here: [[1]]. So, I've explained that I could give extra proofs about the license and have passed the procedure of downloading on my page. You didn't answer. So I am wondering where to send information about the license and they are deleted. It's a bit impolite towards me and Wikipedia users, isn't it. So, would you please explain what's the problem with these files and why they were deleted. Otherwise I feel that I can upload them one more time. User:A.Khamidullin Like all these files are something wrong with them. Seems like an attack on me personally or non-objectiveness.User:A.Khamidullin

Deletion of significant historical photos uploaded by my self

Dear Sir, Many regards, I noticed that you deleted many pictures which I uploaded to WIKIMEDIA below. Please note that those files are all from my private family archive. I request you to reconsider deleting these historical pictures as they were very rare and significant for the articles which I wrote before. There no copy right violation for those pictures. Can you please reconsider or at least give us a valid reason for your deletions ?? thanks

Your "no license" tags

Hi, I regularly check Category:Media without a license for images having a license and retag them either as "(DW) no source", "no permission" or change it to regular DRs. Sometimes the files are IMHO OK and I just remove the problem tag. I notice since weeks (or months?) that you creating very much such cases. In most of "your" cases I retag then as "DW no source". I would like to ask you to do that yourself in future, because thats less confusing for the uploaders, not much work for you (just press a different button) and would save me several hours a week checking yout tags. Thx a lot. --JuTa 16:53, 26 October 2020 (UTC)

I use no license tags for historical/official images claimed to be own work. Obviously such claims are invalid and proper license tags must be used if works are in public domain. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 17:47, 26 October 2020 (UTC)

But the own work is also invalid, its better to mark the as "DW no source". IMHO thats the main problem. There are uploaders misunderstanding your taggings and replace i.e. a cc-by license by PD-own or vice versa. I will change the tagging anyhow, so why not tagging it directly that way? --JuTa 18:11, 26 October 2020 (UTC)

May be we need separate tagging/maintenance categories for such cases? For example, {{Wrong license}}. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 19:15, 26 October 2020 (UTC)

Sobre a imagem de Lobisomem: O Apocalipse 2º Edição.

Eu entendo, eu realmente tentei correr atrás de uma permissão por escrito do detentor dos direitos autorais no Brasil, mas segundo a Devir, a licença dos direitos já tinha acabado e mandaram contatar a White Wolf. O problema é que a editora deixou de existir, tendo seu material absorvido pela Onyx Path Publishing, que eu já tentei contato, mas ainda não me respondeu desde Sábado. Por isso compreendo a deleção e tentarei primeiro obter a licença e depois upar a imagem com ela posteriormente. Obrigado por já ter editado o artigo na Wikipédia Lusófona.--Wolf (talk) 16:53, 27 October 2020 (UTC)

File:Première page de "FRANCE" du 7 juin 1944.jpg does not have a license

Hello Eugene Zelenko. This image is a photo I took from the complete collection of issues of the daily newspaper FRANCE that I own (I can send you a photo of the collection if needed). In this case, it is the first page of the issue published on June 7, 1944. This issue is in the public domain. Can you tell me which license banner I should insert? Is it PD-old-70 ?

Je vous remercie pour ces infos. Je vais donc fournir des éléments supplémentaires concernant ces photos. Par contre, la page se retrouve complètement déséquilibrée, avec des photos qui ont été placées par d'autres et qui n'ont plus rien à voir (photo de Bart De Wever, d'Alexander De Croo... ) Ce n'est plus crédible et ruine le travail accompli par plusieurs contributeurs.

Hi @EugeneZelenko, I receive your alert. T‬hank you for drawing my attention to my image: File:Présentation film Internet ou la révolution par Tricassinux.jpg.

If you speak french, please let me know.

Please note I mentioned a film title but it is not the topic of this image. It was just the title of this event :).

So, I have answered according to the procedure called "Wikimedia OTRS release generator". I am not use to use this procedure, do not hesitate to share a piece of advice with me :).

Have a good day. and thank you for your work with Wikipedia

Asking for a license to share a file

Hi, I found a file [3] whose author agreed to use it. Consent has content [4]. My question is can I share this file on Wikimedia Commons under a CC-BY or CC-BY-SA license? Thanks. Yours sincerely Polskiarmator123 (talk)

No. License must be stated explicitly. Anyway, utilised is ambiguous term. By default copyrights laws allow only to quote. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 16:13, 7 November 2020 (UTC)

First, I would like to thank you for checking on legal and academic accuracy. The name of the file in question already indicates the source of from which the scan was made. That alone makes it a 'fair academic use', even so because there is no commercial use of showing a scan solely to provide information. Also, the document is essential for the sake of arguments included in the article. Moreover, the document shown in the scan is not only public, but the document itself is public domain, provided it is from 1880. Additionaly, the reference (indicated as the name of file) is enough to provide credit to author of the publication (1985) that presented the image, also as a public domain document. Since no legal nor academic rules are being broken, I expect that no one in Wikipedia will take down the image, but if someone sees the need of taking it down, that it will be discussed in open forum. For a FREE publication as Wikipedia, and Wikimedia Commons, there should be no taking down of someone else's contribution unless it is offensive, illegal, or just a pure and simple lie. The file in question is none of those. Again, I thank you for the opportunity of contributing to this discussion, that your have provided. All the best, 177.32.77.105 15:45, 8 November 2020 (UTC)

You are not original author of document and scanning doesn't make you an author. If document is in public domain, proper license tag must be used. See Commons:Copyright rules by territory for relevant country. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 15:51, 8 November 2020 (UTC)

what can i do?

i have received 3 or four messages about deletion request first of the flag of egypt i use it from wikimedia itself so what's wrong < what can i do for that? and there ara some photos i uploaded for my article , These images are to depict a public figure and I have private ownership copyright of the images. It is also uploaded and licensed appropriately through commons, i read about this case in your discssions and you told them : "You could upload photo in original resolution with EXIF to proof your authorship", but i don't understand whats is the meaning about exif? Mr. EugeneZelenko these photos i have the copyright of them and i do every thing in a legal way , also you mention that some other files under deletion requests "Certificates of appreciation" how can i proof that i have the copyright of it. the article about Elena_Dzamashvili and her son alexander with me, does that help and how? I apologize for prolonging but i 've put a lot of effort into this article. Thank you, Regards

i have tried to solve the issue and i think i have resolved, please tell me if these issues had resolved, but the flag of egypt it is from wikimedia itself , is it any wrong with it? this flag appeared when i make the word "مصر" related to a link in wikipedia, That's all

Country flags are available on Commons for long time. See Category:Flags of Egypt and File:Flag of Egypt.svg as examples.

Please read w:en:Exif.

Certificates are created by other organizations/people. Some may be in public domain, but proper reasons/license tags must be provided.

EugeneZelenko (talk) 14:46, 12 November 2020 (UTC)

Hi EugeneZelenko, First of all the flag of Egypt i didn"t insert at all , wikipedia appeared it when i write "مصر" so i don't know how i can resolve this issue or what i do wrong? for certififcates i get you license from flickr and wikipedia accept flickr stuff , but you said license tags must be provided i don't know what can i do for that , this certificates belong to us for Elena , i don't understand what can i do , do you want her son to contact you or what can i do?

please see this file link: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Dzamashvili_2011.jpg it's also for Elena in English version of wikipedia what in it more than i did?

i think i have resolved the problem of license tag but about the falf of egypt as i explained i don't know what to do for it

Looks like you are using machine translation.

Please ask help on Arabian Wikipedia how to use existing files (like state flags) from Commons.

Certificates are not created by Elena or her son, but organizations that issued them, so organizations should be asked for permissions.

File:Dzamashvili_2011.jpg is also problematic. If it was taken form musician archive, copyrights don't belong to uploader, so photographer must be asked for permission.

I definitely recommend you to read Wikipedia article about copyrights law or copyrights law of Egypt, because you need to learn base concepts.

EugeneZelenko (talk) 15:17, i don't use machine translation,i tried to explain that i didn't put flag of egypt it appears when i write "مصر" , certificates belong to elena itself and when she died the permission goes to her son as i think , i don't understand to go to an organization to ask them a permission for certificate they already gived to elena , and what photographer should i ask????? image with own camera or mobile asked from whom i don't know really, i read wikipedia copyrights and i try to do what i understand it's some complicated and try to resolve these issues many times and you don't help me , but you push me to don't write again in wikipedia with this Obstinacy, certifactes belong to who have Acquired.

i really feel exhausted , i tried to contact to Arabian Wikipedia but they don't reply most of time. i tried to resolve two files agian : File:شهادة تقدير من المركز الثقافي الروسي.pdf File:ايلينا دزاماشفيلى.png i hope that works

You didn't it in wrong way. I already pointed you to existing files with flags of Egypt, so you file just need to be deleted. Same goes for flag of Georgia (Category:Flags of Georgia, File:Flag of Georgia.svg). What concern diploma, question is in copyrights status. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 14:44, 16 November 2020 (UTC)

The Athenian Magazine (Greece)

Dear Eugene, I see that you deleted images from the Athenian Magazine (Greece) from 1974. The copyright for that magazine belongs to my family for the years 1974-1978. Could you tell me why you are enforcing my family's copyright? Many thanks, yannis

Please ask each copyrights holder to send permissions to Commons:OTRS (example: Commons:Email templates). Then you could ask help on Commons:OTRS/Noticeboard with permissions review and file(s) undeletion. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 15:11, 13 November 2020 (UTC)

I can do that, but two things: 1. again, why are you enforcing my copyright when I never asked? Whom do you represent? 2. I assume you will not interfere when I upload my own images of my own copyrighted images? Thanks.

You claimed that copyrights belong to your family. Why do you make decision for other people? --EugeneZelenko (talk) 22:14, 13 November 2020 (UTC)

I represent the owners. Who do you represent? I'm simply trying to figure out whom or what you represent, it's a pretty innocent question. I want to make sure I and others proceed correctly. Всего доброго, Евгеный, от Янниса

Another question about licensing

I feel stupid to ask you something again, but you are only one person on Wikimedia I know :) Sorry. So I have some photos which are available on the site of Polish Ministry of National Defence. It is marked that: "Wszystkie treści publikowane w serwisie są udostępniane na licencji Creative Commons Uznanie Autorstwa 3.0 Polska, o ile nie jest to stwierdzone inaczej." -> " All content published on the website is made available under the Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Poland license, unless stated otherwise."[5] (and two other photos). Can I publish it on Wikimedia? If I can i have other question, because on other files from Ministry i saw the information[6]. I know that the this license are alowed on Wikimedia but I'd rather ask than make problems later. I sorry for the problem again :) Polskiarmator123 (talk)

Tak :-) Such media is accepted. Proper license tag is {{Cc-by-3.0-pl}}. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 15:47, 13 November 2020 (UTC)

About Deletion of File: Wiki Diagram.pdf

Hi EugeneZelenko, this diagram should not violate any Wikipedia guidelines. It is being used but is currently remaining in my Sandbox while I work on a draft of an article.

Some contents have been listed at Commons:Deletion requests so that the community can discuss whether they should be kept or not. We would appreciate it if you could go to voice your opinion about this at their entry. If you created these pages, please note that the fact that they have been proposed for deletion does not necessarily mean that we do not value your kind contribution. It simply means that one person believes that there is some specific problem with them, such as a copyright issue. Please see Commons:But it's my own work! for a guide on how to address these issues. Please remember to respond to and – if appropriate – contradict the arguments supporting deletion. Arguments which focus on the nominator will not affect the result of the nomination. Thank you!

Copyright File:Presidente Juscelino Kubitschek recebe Amaral Peixoto.pdf

Hello,

That picture holds public domain status, since I extracted it from the Brazilian National Archive website.

The website specifically says that every image is free from copyright.

The issue you may be finding with the source that I mentioned is due to the fact that the National Archive uses an App called SIAN to explore it's content.

However, to access SIAN one requires an account and when I mentioned the source, I put the link within SIAN.

Perhaps that is the problem, should I change it to the website os the National Archive? (https://www.gov.br/arquivonacional/pt-br)

Here is the SIAN: http://sian.an.gov.br/sianex/consulta/login.asp

The thing is that I had uploaded it once and you nominated it for deletion. So, a little bit of help from yours is appreciated.--Kazemita1 (talk) 13:08, 29 November 2020 (UTC)

@Kazemita1: What Eugene is saying is that your upload is purely a table, and therefore is out of Wikimedia Commons' project scope. That's why it was deleted. "No license" was just a secondary reason, it could've been easily resolved by tagging it as public domain (the content of the table doesn't seem to be copyrightable to me). So what you should do here is to learn how to create a table out of wikitext and paste the code on whatever Wikipedia you're planning to use it on. pandakekok9 Junk the Philippine anti-terror law! 13:23, 29 November 2020 (UTC)

Explanation for my photos that you tag with deleting request.

I am the owner of these pictures, but maybe because I uploaded the wrong pictures at the beginning and uploaded others, maybe that is why you got it wrong

Pictures related to Ola Horve

Hi Eugene, I just received a message about possible deletion of a picture Ola Horve familie.jpg. I will guess the same situation applies to the related picture Olav Horve brev.jpg (where I misspelled the name of the relevant person). I am of course respecting the need for proper licensing and believed I had done this right by giving the name of the owner. So now I am not sure exactly what is required. I have a written permission given by the owner (representing the family) in form of a Facebook Message thread, in Norwegian. Sending a snapshot of this as an iternational licensing statement seems not very helpful. And even if understood, how can a reader know that the name given in this "license" is the proper owner of the pictures? Do I need to get a public statement in English from the owner in some form? If so, what should this contain? Please do not delete the pictures before I have had time to sort this out, I may need some time also to communicate with the owner. Toba (talk) 17:31, 5 December 2020 (UTC)

Hi again Eugene, I did not succeed in getting the source of the pictures of Ola Horve to submit sufficient permission, so it is then perfectly OK to delete these two pictures. I am not sure if they will be automatically deleted or if someone will have to actively do a job to delete them. Should I mark the pictures somehow as 'ready to be deleted'? Or can you help in deleting them? Also the category Ola Horve can be deleted, as this will now be empty. I am sorry for having submitted the pictures without sufficient licensing. Thanks for all help! Toba (talk) 18:38, 12 December 2020 (UTC)

notification "Unlikely to be own work: small resolutions, missing EXIF"

Hi Eugene, you proposed deletion for some uploads I made, pictures that I took. I was surprised by the notification "Unlikely to be own work: small resolutions, missing EXIF" and I come to clarify that these works are mine. If the resolution is low and some EXIF data is lost, it is because these files are old and have gone through quite traumatic processes in data recovery. Although the suspicion you raised makes some sense, the photos were taken by me some years ago and are the last pieces capable of telling the stories they propose.

I would like you to tell me how we can get around this situation.

Sincerely, Zedimaneli

EugeneZelenko (talk) 22:12, 10 December 2020 (UTC)

Encyclopedia Fantastyki is authored by selected editors only. It is not general access and there are just a few people, including me, who can edit it. So the question of patrolling is basically unsubstantial - we do not patrol changes, as we don't have accidental changes, we all know all the changes introduced. This does not a work like a wikipedia. The permission for Bohdan Petecki was obtained by Wojtek Sedeńko, the projects leader - there is no doubt about the honesty of this. The same is true for Konrad Fiałkowki, where Sedeńko uploaded a photo of his own authorship and the upload to wikimedia was later confirmed additionally with the widow, Mrs. Fiałkowska. The author does not need to double confirm the authorship of his own photo he uploads - neither on EF nor here, but he did. The photo of Wojciech Gunia was uploaded by me personally with permissions from the original author to upload it to EF and license to CC. All of those three are CC-BY-SA 3.0 which make them eligible to be uploaded to Wikimedia without any further obstacles, all according to the rules. As for Fenix: Since when do authors need to send OTRS for files they authored and uploaded themselves? This is ridiculous, I will not do this, I don't have time to waste. There is a mechanism to state "this is my own work" and I see no point in carrying our this farce unless you show me a rule "the original author can only upload his own work by himself using the wikimedia's "own work" mechanism IF he provides additional confirmation because I think so". This whole situation renders the whole set of wikimedia rules useless and ridiculous and I insist you drop this very idea as this is plain wrong. There are rules that were set long ago and that I follow and this is no place for a single editor with his own idea to undermine the foundation of the project in this case. I am listed as the author IN the magazine and in several other places, just google it. You got no ground whatsoever to question the authorship and to question my right to do as I please with my own works. If you keep on questioning my authorship over my own drawing that I uploaded myself with the built-in wikimedia mechanism for uploading authors' own work we can take it to administration level, but I do doubt anyone will question the author of his own work uploading his own work and licensing it. Something like that has not happened to me in the past decade and a half. Godai (talk) 06:04, 11 December 2020 (UTC)

I think will be good idea if Encyclopedia Fantastyki will make page about editing/uploads policies, so outsiders like me could easily find it and clear doubts.

I think confirmation via OTRS is reasonable in case of any complex artwork, because other entities (like publisher) could be involved in copyrights ownership.

EugeneZelenko (talk) 15:08, 11 December 2020 (UTC)

Encyklopedia Fantastyki does have such a page, it's just in Polish. I linked it in the involved images' pages. I don't really think anyone will devote time to that, it lacks more important things like books and authors.

As for the Fenix, let me put this straight: I am the author of the cover, I am the Editor-in-charge of the Fenix Antologia magazine and I am the publisher and head and owner of the Gniazdo Światów publishing house that published it. There is no other single human being on the face of Earth more entitled to post anything on Wikipedia than I am entitled to post this very work I have personally created with my own words and Photoshop skills. Here is my written statement, that this work of mine has been released into the Creative Commons domain with the acceptance of the author, the editor and the publisher of the work, which, as it happens, are all me and please stop being ridiculous with OTRS.

Now, please, understand that: what you are doing is wrong. You are harassing a creator for adding his own original content to Wikipedia. Your actions are discouraging content creators from enriching Wikipedia with their creations. Please stop, this is bad for the project. This is all I have to say about this and this is EOT for me. If you think you want to fight for and you can arrange deleting media from the project that were uploaded to Wikipedia according to guidelines and with all due respect to all the rules of this community, then go for it. Of course if you think that removing media from the project enriches the project. The photo of late Konrad Fiałkowski is widely used od several language versions. I am sure it is worth removing this photo, just because YOU think a proper CC license attributed to it, it being uploaded by the original creator (Wojtek Sedeńko is the photographer) into a CC-compliant repository and being transferred with respect to all the rules into Wikipedia (and on-demand from the creator) will be a good thing to do.

If you do this and succeed and nobody says STOP, it means Wikipedia is not worth uploading content to. Which would be sad. But I will surely stop adding files to Wikipedia if the rules are void and meaningless because I don't have time nor patience for this kind of bullshit.

If you needed me, answer on my discussion page, please, as I'm not going to pay any more attention to this farce. Godai (talk) 17:04, 11 December 2020 (UTC)

As I wrote, OTRS is best place for such statements. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 14:48, 12 December 2020 (UTC)

Help on licensing

Hey Eugene. I am a begginer here on CommonsWikimedia and I got your message on licensing the pictures I posted. The pictures I posted were from the municipal government, on their website and on their online reports on the city. They mostly didnt have any credit on the subtitles. As being governamental divulgation, I thought they were already posted with the proper licenses. Can you just help me exactly on what I should provide in my specific cases? I was so proudly contributing to the site uploading pictures about my town and didn't pay much attention on the rules. Though I read all the licensing article, I didn't understand much, so can you help me? Nonato III (talk) 18:29, 10 December 2020 (UTC)

For each such file you need to provide link to source site where explicit license statement is stated. License must be compatible with Commons:Licensing. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 22:08, 10 December 2020 (UTC)

Help on permission information

Hi, Eugene. Thanks a lot for taking care of my photos and their permissions. I need your help to sort this out, as I have a mixed situation.

1) The file: Colonos 2016.jpg was uploaded only as a test, it is not needed and can be deleted from Wikimedia (I tried, but did not succeed).

2) The following images were obtained directly by me with my camera with the permission of the artist:

-Antroposfera 2011.jpg -ParcoDelleScultureGiovannidArtegna.jpg -Ritratto Giovanni d'Artegna.jpg -En la sua volontade.jpg

This files are Commons:Derivative works from art or photos. You need to ask copyrights holder to send permissions to Commons:OTRS (example: Commons:Email templates). Then you could ask help on Commons:OTRS/Noticeboard with permissions and files undeletion. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 15:04, 11 December 2020 (UTC)

Thanks. The author is very old. I can get a written statement from him, but already sending an email is a problem (he does not have an account, for instance). I would have to do it for him. Also, I seem to understand that in the request one needs to point to the URL of the uploaded image. But it is not clear how one does that, since the images have been deleted. The simplest way seems to upload them again. COuld you please help me with this aspect? --Max Olitz (talk) 14:26, 15 December 2020 (UTC)

Permission could be done on paper that later be scanned. Photography of works in question could be attached to permission. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 15:21, 15 December 2020 (UTC)

I have sent the scanned, signed version Commons:OTRS (Jan 8, 2021). They first replied that this was not valid option (Kevin Wallem, Jan 10, 2021). I reiterated that you had suggested me to do so, and then they replied that they would consider it. But afterwards I have not heard back, despite of the fact that I solicited a reply (Jan 26th). How should I proceed? Thanks! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Max Olitz (talk • contribs) 14:38, 1 February 2021 (UTC)

--Max Olitz (talk) 14:40, 1 February 2021 (UTC)

Please sort this issue with OTRS volunteer. Explaining situation in details should be helpful. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 15:44, 1 February 2021 (UTC)

3) These were given to me by the artist himself (I scanned and edited them):

-Angelo 1958.jpg -MascheraGiovanniDArtegna1981.jpg -GdA 2011.jpg

See above. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 15:04, 11 December 2020 (UTC)

4) This photo was taken by a third party, and was downloaded from the web (https://www.flickr.com/photos/festivaldellascienza/48987934866/in/album-72157711484870047/)

-NandoGenova.jpg

File was claimed to be your own work. I could restore it if you'll properly attribute author/license. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 15:04, 11 December 2020 (UTC)

From the licence notice (https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/2.0/) it seems that it can be used freely and that one needs to give credit to the photographer.

I have sent a request for undeletion, forwarding the names of the authors and the link to the licence. I have not yet heard back.

--Max Olitz (talk) 14:26, 15 December 2020 (UTC)

5) This last one:

-OcchiDiGalileo.jpg

was given to me directly by the subject (it is a selfie), who told me I can do what I want with it.

See first comment. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 15:04, 11 December 2020 (UTC)

I contacted the author. He suggested he would upload a new version of the file and make the declaration that he releases the copyrights under the Commons licence, so that I can use that image without further hiccups.

--Max Olitz (talk) 14:26, 15 December 2020 (UTC)

So, the question is: how do I address each of these cases?

Thanks a lot!

Лицензии

Здравствуйте, Евгений!

У меня возникли сложности с уточнением лицензий при загрузке изображений и аудиофайлов. Буду рад, если Вы поможете разобраться.

С уважением, Davidgasparyan2001 (talk) 18:30, 31 December 2020 (UTC)

Лицензии Creative Commons - артефакт 21 века. Но произведения могут быть в общественном достоянии. Для выяснения этого факта надо найти информацию о стране происхождения, авторах, датах их смерти. Смотрите также сводку законодательства об авторском праве и шаблонах лицкезий для соответствующей страны в Commons:Copyright rules by territory. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 19:09, 31 December 2020 (UTC)

Евгений, спасибо большое!

Я ознакомился с законодательством Армении по авторскому праву. Все добавленные мной произведения по сути являются сочинениями народного творчества (в законе об авторском праве РА говорится, что такие произведения не являются объектами авторского права). Попробовал добавить эту информацию через соответствующий шаблон в одну из загруженных мною работ (речь про народную песню "Алагяз- Ладанное дерево"). Подскажите, пожалуйста, верно ли я все делаю?

С уважением, Davidgasparyan2001 (talk) 01:17, 1 January 2021 (UTC)

В случае музыки авторские права имеют не только композитор/автор слов, но и исполнитель. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 16:32, 1 January 2021 (UTC)

Евгений, в случае с "Алагяз-Ладанное дерево" мы имеем дело исполнением Арменака Шахмурадяна (умер в 1939 г.) И Комитаса (умер в 1935 г.). Прошло более 70 лет со дня их смерти (в соответствии с законом Армении об авторском праве).

В таком случае соответствует ли указанная запись требованиям?

С уважением, Davidgasparyan2001 (talk) 02:03, 4 January 2021 (UTC)

Речь идёт о File:Alagyaz – Xnki tsar (Armenak Shahmuradian sings, Komitas accompanies) - 1912.ogg? Да. Если песня записана в Российской Империи, то также релевантна {{PD-RusEmpire}}. Только Вы добавьте, пожалуйста, даты жизни исполнителей (или ссылки на статьи в Википедии) в описание файла. Ведь не все знакомы с армянской культурой. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 02:32, 4 January 2021 (UTC)

Deletion of File:Juvenia Kraków Logo.png

Hello, you deleted File:Juvenia Kraków Logo.png with description: "non-trivial logo".

If I remember correctly, the OTRS template was also placed on the file page. In this situation the deletion was probably a mistake? Could you expain it or restore the file? Grzegorz B.

Reason for deletion: Those files are clearly violate the policy of Wikimedia, since the creator (Irena Bierwiaczonek) just died in 2009 (as one user in the main discussion point out) so those file are not yet out of copyright as the uploader claim.

File Uploaded by: User:NorthernWinterTH1

• Commons:Deletion requests/File:Anthem of Austria-Hungary.ogg

Reason for deletion: This is certainly not an own work, from my investigation, This performance of the Anthem was uploaded, at least since 2010 onto YouTube and therefore can't belong to the user themselves.

• Commons:Deletion requests/File:Katyusha.ogg

Reason for deletion: This is clearly a modern performance of the song by the Alexandrov Ensemble, not the user's own work.

Possible violation

This is possible copyright violation. Not in the said source. Keyword search does not show anything mentioned in the description, and date is definitely not present so public domain claim appears to fail. 117.230.155.11 08:50, 11 January 2021 (UTC)

Please help address this problem since you are the one flagging it.

Re removal of deletion tag: (1) No means to appeal/discuss. (2) Error/violation is unclear. (3) No clear instructions on how to correct.(4) Copyright clearly stated & released to public. (5) Deletion tag is unfounded claim that image is "historical"- it is from family archive. (6) Family released this and other related photos to public domain. (7) Scan of the photo itself was conducted by family member who owns copyright to the scan and has released scan to the public domain. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Daorigcalzone (talk • contribs) 17:39, 11 January 2021 (UTC)

What is wrong about using a cc-sa-license, so that the author would get credit, when the booklet might be used by someone else? What else have we to do, to get the no-licence-tag removed? Best!--Jürgen Nemitz (HSP) (talk) 14:05, 13 January 2021 (UTC)

At least in post-Soviet copyrights law authors always have right to name. Anyway, determination of public domain status require knowledge of author date of death or date of publication for anonymous works. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 15:42, 13 January 2021 (UTC)

So I added the Life- and Deathdates of Hermann Meinke and I wrote an ORTS-Request explaining my Situation. [Ticket#: 2021011310006286]. Maybe you can check that too as an Admin. Marvin Born Marvin Born (talk) 16:11, 13 January 2021 (UTC)

You still need to fix license tag. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 16:13, 13 January 2021 (UTC)

What kind of licence model is required? Marvin Born asked for help, so could you please explian what to fix in detail?--Jürgen Nemitz (HSP) (talk) 16:24, 13 January 2021 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of maps

Hi Eugene, you marked a number of maps from CC-BY books as up for deletion, or derivative because they contain a "map within a map". I have created most of these maps myself, including the inset maps. For others, there is no "map within a map", so I do not understand the objection. Please clarify what actions you expect. Should I say "inset map also created by Jasy jatere"? That sounds a bit silly to me, to be honest. Jasy jatere (talk) 16:41, 13 January 2021 (UTC)

Please read Commons:Derivative works. Some of maps you uploaded are obviously based on online map services. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 16:44, 13 January 2021 (UTC)

some of the works. Please see inline comments on the list of files you put on my talk page. Could you please remove the deletion warning for all files where I indicate that they are entirely my own work, eg https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:LanguagesCoteDIvoire.png . For the ones with an OSM component, I will provide updated metadata over the following days Jasy jatere (talk) 17:47, 13 January 2021 (UTC)

The Timor maps were all created by Owen Edwards as indicated. Why do you think there was an online service involved? Jasy jatere (talk) 17:47, 13 January 2021 (UTC)

There was a c&p error in the source field, pointing to a different file. My apologies. This is now corrected. The source link now points to the same file which is used on Wikimedia. Please have a look at the metadata at https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Amarasi_dialects.pdf and let me know if there is anything else you require Jasy jatere (talk) 10:47, 14 January 2021 (UTC)

You still need to find out map sources for files like File:YakkhaRegion.png. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 15:35, 14 January 2021 (UTC)

Hi there,

I recently reported an image for copyright violation and noticed the user was blocked by you on 29 December 2020. However they are continuing to upload clear copyright violations. User is .

Hello EugeneZelenko, thanks for calling my attention on this. I kindly provide here a link to an appropriate webpage with license information for that image, which is: https://sites.google.com/abctota.org/xieti/inicio/logo —I hope this is sufficient to solve that issue, but please let me know in case something else is required, thank you. --FMontecito (talk) 18:18, 18 January 2021 (UTC)

Help me delete File:YSN Fab in store.jpg

Hey EugeneZelenko, I accidenlty uploaded this file without permission as I though social media was allowed. I can not figure out how to remove it and I do not want to be blocked from editing. It was an honest mistake, please delete it for me! UpcomingPurse (talk) 05:57, 19 January 2021 (UTC)

Availability of media on Internet doesn't assume terms compatible with Commons:Licensing. File will be removed after ~ week if you'll not try to get permission. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 15:28, 19 January 2021 (UTC)

JOAQUIN RUBIO PIZARRO PHOTO

I'm sorry. My level of English is very limited. I do not understand. Joaquín Rubio Pizarro was my grandfather. I have that photo. He died in New Jersey on February 3, 1925. I also have all the accident and burial documents for him. Good Morning.--Atilanocarrasco (talk) 09:51, 23 January 2021 (UTC)

Ownership of physical copies doesn't mean ownership of copyrights. You need to provide proper source information and use proper license tags if works are in public domain. See Commons:Copyright rules by territory for relevant country. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 15:45, 23 January 2021 (UTC)

Formal proof of photo rights

Dear EugeneZelenko, I'm responding to the remarks you made concerning my uploads.

Help deleting files

Hi Eugene, thank you for flagging my accidental upload to wiki commons. How do I go about deleting the file uploads? Thanks for your help! Arw29 (talk) 05:23, 26 January 2021 (UTC)

If you agree with nomination, you don't need to do anything - deletion request will be closed in ~ week. If not - you need to explain notability of subject. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 15:33, 26 January 2021 (UTC)

Pictures may be deleted

Hi EugeneZelenko, Many of the pictures I uploaded may be deleted soon. I understand it's a matter of tagging the right license, right? I am a bit lost in how to make the right corrections. Could you help me? Thank you — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jean-Jacques Gueman (talk • contribs) 08:03, 26 January 2021 (UTC)

LucainVIDALOKA Butcher

Hey! You recently (correctly) deleted File:AscendantStudiosLogo.png, a copyrighted corporate logo Flickr-washed by a user called "LucainVIDALOKA Butcher". Several more of their images have been uploaded to Commons, all of which are Flickr-washed (the original source or author could easily be determined for most of them). Should you have the time, please take a look at said uploads and delete them. I tagged all with copyvio. Regards, IceWelder [✉] 13:24, 26 January 2021 (UTC)

Thank you for help! I removed non-trivial logos. Sorry, I don't have enough time to research photos - I still need to perform my regular reviews. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 15:38, 26 January 2021 (UTC)

Thanks. I added the sources/copyright holders for 4 of the 5 remaining images. The last one looks like it was taken from a video, so I'm still looking for that. Curiously, all images were uploaded to Flickr on the dates as here. It is likely that the uploading user (the same in all cases) is Flickr-washing the image themselves. IceWelder [✉] 16:57, 26 January 2021 (UTC)

I also found the last Flickrwashed source. I also discovered that Lsn113 has a second account, LsnIg334, that has uploaded several copyvios. Whether or not this warrants a sock block I live to your discretion. Thanks for all your work. IceWelder [✉] 18:11, 26 January 2021 (UTC)

Other administrator(s) had deleted these files already. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 15:49, 27 January 2021 (UTC)

Deletion of mech city brawl photos

Hi there

Can I ask why you deleted the cover art photos for the Override Mech Brawl articles yet not photos on like Tom Clancy Ghost Recon and Call of Duty? Can you please explain why copyright is allowed for those articles but not these two? Seems a bit one sided imo. 🤔 RailwayJG (talk) 04:34, 27 January 2021 (UTC)

If you meant articles in English Wikipedia, non-free media is allowed there and must be uploaded locally. But not on Commons. See Commons:Licensing. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 15:47, 27 January 2021 (UTC)
