@Lefcentreright: Hello, Jeff - hope you are doing well. I hope I am not intruding or being a nuisance. Over the past few days, I have been trying to contact the GCIS people, but to no avail. Either I receive an e-mail stating that their inboxes are "full" or they are just blatantly ignoring my e-mails. The South African Communications Department has been noted as one of the most ineffective departments in the South African government. Furthermore, the government's default license for publishing images is CC-BY-NC which is not allowed on Commons. I knew that they publish images under that specific license, so when I first asked them for an image of the Free State Premier Mrs Ntombela, I sent an e-mail EXPLICITLY stating that:

"Since Wikipedia aims to be a repository of images and information that anyone can use, even in nations where generous the United States "fair use" provisions are inapplicable, we can only use images that are released under a so-called "free license", which permits anyone else to use, modify, or deal commercially with the image concerned if they wish, provided there is appropriate attribution and that any modifications are released under an identical license.

Example licenses that would permit us to use a better-quality image would be: the GNU Free Documentation License <http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/fdl.html> or the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 license <https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/legalcode>. Be assured if you do not grant permission or provide such an image, we will not use one without permission. You are under no obligation to release any material under such licenses, but I thought that for public-relations purposes, you might want to consider it given Wikipedia's great popularity."

The person whom I contacted, immediately referred to someone else to handle the request. I filled in an application form once again stating that the image must be under a "free license". They accepted my application form and gave me the image. I believe that the statement (stating that my request has been approved) that they sent back to me was one of a template used by the government. In short, they consented to me publishing the image on Commons and Wikipedia.

I then sent the statement to OTRS and got a reply from you explaining that I need more clarity from the government. So after multiple e-mails to the government, here I am again. Can you please help me resolve this issue? It would greatly be appreciated. I can send some of the initial e-mails for more proof or I can just keep asking. Kind regards. Lefcentreright (talk) 17:27, 30 June 2019 (UTC)

@Lefcentreright: I emailed you.   — Jeff G. please ping or talk to me 17:47, 30 June 2019 (UTC)
@Jeff G.: I have e-mail you back. Lefcentreright (talk) 18:03, 30 June 2019 (UTC)
@Lefcentreright: I emailed them directly and copied you re Ticket:2019060710005052.   — Jeff G. please ping or talk to me 03:34, 1 July 2019 (UTC)
@Jeff G.: The GCIS people have amended the license to make it compatible with the Wikimedia Commons guidelines. Lefcentreright (talk) 14:01, 2 July 2019 (UTC)
@Lefcentreright: Thanks, but they made a new message rather than replying, which created a new ticket. I merged and forwarded to get us back in sync. You don't need to ping me on this page.   — Jeff G. please ping or talk to me 14:55, 2 July 2019 (UTC)
@Jeff G.: GCIS has now sent me a pdf which reads: "8. The GCIS consent to the image of Ms Sefora Hixsona "Sisi' Ntombela being used on Wikimedia under a free license." I have forwarded it to the Permission-Wikimedia Commons e-mail inbox and received a confirmation e-mail. Can you please maybe have a look at it. It would be greatly appreciated.

Prize

Hello, I am glad to share my views about Wiki Loves Love, yes it was a wonderful experience to see wonderful pictures that depict the love, i request to say that i am a student and i was so busy in my exams so i was not able to check my mail, but i just checked my mail and felt so happy to see myself as a postcard winner, but felt brokenhearted when saw that last date was 10th April, so i request you if it is possible to get my prize delivered, it will mean a lot to me. Being a poet, i am very sensitive from heart, i participated in a number of national as well as international poetry programs.

My wiki user name is Jaideep Tuli

Thankyou, Jaideep Tuli (talk) 05:37, 4 July 2019 (UTC)

@Jaideep Tuli: Sorry, I cannot help you in this matter any more than I already did in this edit.   — Jeff G. please ping or talk to me 05:47, 4 July 2019 (UTC)

Context matters

[1] "It's not as uncommon as you think" - No, but how many of them are == Speedy deletation ==?, as all of those by these socks were (some of which you can't see any more because they are on deleted file/talk pages), on copyvio images of the same person, with similarly fashioned filenames, and a similar penchant for messing with bogus "OTRS" tags/emails when challenged... A single-word search result is one thing, but context matters. Anyway, they are blocked now, so not an issue. -- Begoon 00:26, 7 July 2019 (UTC)

Advice needed on copyright

If is said that "In a fair amount of cases, a logo is considered a trademark without also being a copyright. This is most often the case for simple logos that only contain letters or simple geometric shapes. The rationale here is that such simple logos do not meet the threshold of originality required under U.S. copyright law." In this regard, whether This logo] of Mumbai Internaltional Airpot will be under copyright or it will be out of copyright. --Sushant savla (talk) 06:10, 7 July 2019 (UTC)

@Sushant savla: If I were you, I'd ask at COM:VPC.   — Jeff G. please ping or talk to me 13:27, 7 July 2019 (UTC)

Image copyright

Jeff, long time reader newbie contributor. I attempted to upload an image File:Palm Springs Mayor Robert Moon.jpg. It was challenged on copyright issues. I have engaged Lani Garfield on numerous occasions for professional photoshoots and to purchase photographs she has taken of me. I have this particular image on a CD of images that were created by Ms. Garfield under a paid photo session agreement. I own all rights to this photograph. Thank you for reconsidering. PalmSpringsMoon (talk)

@PalmSpringsMoon: AIUI, US Federal law requires copyright transfers to be documented in writing. Please send a copy of such document via OTRS and mark the file with {{subst:OP}}.   — Jeff G. please ping or talk to me 19:00, 8 July 2019 (UTC)

Following up

It's been about a month since you sent a message to Drapery24, you mentioned pursuing this matter of the potential copyvio photo on WP:COIN and with the photographer. I have that correct, right? –MJLTalk 21:33, 7 July 2019 (UTC)

@MJL: The user hasn't edited since 19:24, 12 November 2017 (UTC). I emailed them.   — Jeff G. please ping or talk to me 09:52, 8 July 2019 (UTC)
Okay, gotcha. Thank you for the ping! :D –MJLTalk 15:04, 8 July 2019 (UTC)
@MJL: You're welcome. Why did you come to me about the matter?   — Jeff G. please ping or talk to me 21:06, 12 July 2019 (UTC)
Thank you for the pings btw You were the first person who helped me out on here. I knew you were reasonably active as well. Honestly, I'm kind of surprised you're not an admin. –MJLTalk 21:17, 12 July 2019 (UTC)

Re: COM:AN/U

I saw your message on Tukka talk page. I feel angry now——What he said seems to accuse mine of inappropriate behavior. I really want to know what I do wrong.--Kai3952 (talk) 15:43, 15 July 2019 (UTC)

@Kai3952: Off the top of my head you didn't post about that user at COM:AN/U. You also uncategorized files, rather than putting them in a more appropriate cat. Is it possible that there are works in that museum that were brought from or pictured at places outside the museum?   — Jeff G. please ping or talk to me 16:22, 15 July 2019 (UTC)
I once asked User:林高志 where the photo was taken, but he did not reply. As far as I can see, he had said the same thing to many people on his talk page. He claims that he is a 72-year-old man and can not remember where each photo was taken. That's why I chose to use "Unidentified locations" category. You can go to him and ask him for this question.--Kai3952 (talk) 19:27, 15 July 2019 (UTC)

余深深對閣下抱歉,是無心之過請勿見怪,說的話是我的用詞不當。是已73歲的老人體弱多病(一出生就曾失明,就醫才漸康復,眼睛較弱視。但用眼過度致右眼角膜潰瘍,以左眼拍照看書被稱:華人的海倫凱勒。)不記得十餘年前每張照片的拍攝地點是實情。2018年住院台大醫院重大手術(台北維基百科協會王秘書長見過台大醫院資料)。台大醫師交代未遂之事速完成人必有臨終之日。余秋雨大師,曾到台北參加國際書展,演講表示:參訪歐洲近百城市,但苦惱甚少照片,本人即稱:為答謝大師文章有引用願提供,並贈書籍、鄉土郵票甚滿意。後在維基百科上傳萬餘張相片奉獻,寫完「勸善七十年」--提倡「誠實理念」之歷程及對後人的期望。2019年又復發需再手術,恐來日無多,應難在於維基百科上傳大量相片奉獻。感謝指教,林高志 (talk) 04:18, 16 July 2019 (UTC)林高志 後學敬上。

I am deeply sorry for you. It is unintentional to be unintentional. What I said is that my words are not appropriate. It is 73-year-old old man who is frail and sick (when he was born, he was blinded. He was cured when he was medically treated, but his eyes were weaker. However, he used eye to cause corneal ulcer in the right eye and photographed in the left eye to read the book: Helen Keller of Chinese.) I remember that the location of each photo was more than ten years ago. Major surgery in the Taiwan University Hospital in 2018 (Secretary Wang of the Taipei Wikipedia Association met with the data of the National Taiwan University Hospital) The doctors of the National Taiwan University gave an account of the success of the attempted person. Master Yu Qiuyu, who went to Taipei to participate in the International Book Fair, said: Visiting nearly 100 cities in Europe, but there are very few photos of distress, I said: I would like to thank the masters for their articles, and I am very satisfied with the books and local stamps. After that, I uploaded more than 10,000 photos on Wikipedia and wrote "Secret for Seventy Years" - the process of advocating "honest concept" and the expectations of future generations. In 2019, recurrence requires reoperation. It is feared that there will be no more days. It should be difficult for Wikipedia to upload a large number of photos. Thanks for your advice, Lin Gaozhi after school.

Jeff G, did you see that? He "still" did not answer the question about where the photo was taken. Who knows what he is talking about! I think, his reply is not helpful in solving the problem. What do you think we should do?--Kai3952 (talk) 07:51, 16 July 2019 (UTC)
@Kai3952: Live and let live.   — Jeff G. please ping or talk to me 12:28, 16 July 2019 (UTC)
Live and let live? But the problem still exists.--Kai3952 (talk) 12:41, 16 July 2019 (UTC)

Please help, Jeff.

Hello, Jeff. How are you? Can you please maybe assist me by looking at [Ticket#2019071710008851]. It would greatly be appreciated. This is still an ongoing problem. My e-mails are just simply ignored or either, deleted. Have a nice day. Lefcentreright (talk) 13:27, 18 July 2019 (UTC)

@Lefcentreright: Please continue discussing Ticket:2019060710005052 via email. Pinging @Krd as an interested party.   — Jeff G. please ping or talk to me 15:26, 18 July 2019 (UTC)
@Jeff G.: I really should not have asked GCIS for an image. This is the last time I will ever use OTRS or upload to Commons. I have learnt my lesson. Lefcentreright (talk) 19:52, 18 July 2019 (UTC)
@Lefcentreright: I'm sorry you feel that way, and I wish you and GCIS could have followed the advice at OTRS.   — Jeff G. please ping or talk to me 20:08, 18 July 2019 (UTC)
@Jeff G.: Honestly Mr Jeff G., you were very helpful and kind. Other editors were quite mean. I don't even know what to do regarding the specific file anymore. Should it be deleted or what do you suggest? Lefcentreright (talk) 20:10, 18 July 2019 (UTC)
@Lefcentreright: If I don't hear directly from GCIS within six days, the current file will be deleted.   — Jeff G. please ping or talk to me 20:20, 18 July 2019 (UTC)
@Jeff G.: I thought it would be a quick and easy task. It has been ongoing for more than two months. I did not expect this to happen. Sorry. Lefcentreright (talk) 20:25, 18 July 2019 (UTC)
