In Commons:Deletion requests/Files uploaded by Tanka222 regarding files uploaded by Tanka222, the files…

…were requested deleted by EugeneZelenko for failing to include appropriate license tags, and the request was actioned by Krd (courtesy pings to those involved).

The files in question are an international treaty between Japan and South Korea. As such they are exempt from copyright under {{PD-EdictGov}} in the US. In Korea they are covered by {{PD-KoreaGov}}, and in Japan by {{PD-Japan-exempt}}. I therefore request that they be undeleted. --Xover (talk) 12:11, 21 July 2020 (UTC)

 Info English version available at wikisource:en:File:Japan-Korea GSOMIA (English Text).pdf. Thuresson (talk) 18:43, 21 July 2020 (UTC)
@Xover: It is not clear from {{PD-Japan-exempt}} that international treaties are covered by this exception. Any comments? Ankry (talk) 18:57, 26 July 2020 (UTC)
@Ankry: I would presume that international treaties are laws (either directly if they are self-executing, or by way of being enacted in national law) for copyright purposes, so it should be covered by Art. 13 (i). Anything that obligates and binds the nation, as such, has force of law (which is why the legislative assembly has to ratify all treaties in many jurisdictions, rather than let the executive accede alone). Art. 13 is expansive (it's similar to PD-USGov, unlike some national copyright legislation) so I see no particular reason to assume it would not cover a treaty. In any case, the creative work (the text of the treaty) is authored by the two involved governments and as such are exempt from copyright for that reason, even if it would not be exempt by virtue of being a treaty. Or put another way, even if PD-EdictGov did not exist, a treaty authored by the US government would still be PD under PD-USGov as a government work. --Xover (talk) 19:36, 26 July 2020 (UTC)

@JuTa: those four files was recently deleted for "No OTRS permission for 30 days", but I have permission from author and I send it to permissions-pl@wikimedia.org three times: on 21.08.2018, 21.09.2018 and 7.10.2018. I still have this messages on my mailbox archive and I can send it again, so please restore them and put given permission. --Wojsław Brożyna (talk) 08:34, 28 July 2020 (UTC)

They had not been confirmed by OTRS stuff since end of January. I'm curently working on the "OTRS received" backlog". --JuTa 09:28, 28 July 2020 (UTC)
Wojsław Brożyna, I looked at the ticket:2018110410002829 mentioned in the deleted image. First of all, I am surprised that nobody answered it, someone should have. Maybe the issue is that such emails are supposed to be from the copyright holders and in that ticket the correspondence was not. So the OTRS ticket is not relevant here. As for files, they all come from https://rodzimawiara.org.pl website where the only copyright statement I can find is "1996-2020 (C) Rodzima Wiara" Your deleted files used {{GFDL}}{{Cc-by-sa-4.0}} and I did not see any evidence that the photographer released those photographs under stated license. --Jarekt (talk) 17:14, 29 July 2020 (UTC)

File is published under CC by-sa license -> http://plastyka.art.pl/ijankowski — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jantom~plwiki (talk • contribs) 19:46, 29 July 2020 (UTC)

  •  Oppose - Per COM:LL; this is a scan of an older photograph with no evidence the webmaster of plastyka.art.pl is the original photographer or otherwise has the authority to license the image. Indeed, site appears to belong Ireneusz Jankowski. Jankowski is the subject of this photograph, whereas copyright initially vests with the author (photographer). Jankowski would hold copyright only if transferred by a formal written conveyance. Эlcobbola talk 20:01, 29 July 2020 (UTC)

 Not done Unlikely that the plastyka.art.pl website owner is the photo copyright holder (if so, an evidence is needed). The declared license probably applies to the text only. Ankry (talk) 08:47, 31 July 2020 (UTC)

  •  Oppose - Per COM:LL; this is a scan of an older photograph with no evidence the webmaster of plastyka.art.pl is the original photographer or otherwise has the authority to license the image. Эlcobbola talk 19:58, 29 July 2020 (UTC)
    • @Elcobbola: LL accusation seems to be not justified here: the photo seems to be from 1970s so not copyrighted in Poland per {{PD-Poland}} as a pre-1994 photo without copyright notice, and likely the web publisher was granted 25-year first publication right per using it on this webpage. However, unsure about US copyright here. Ankry (talk) 22:40, 29 July 2020 (UTC)
      • A PD status and CC license are mutually exclusive. Your supposition alone demonstrates the COM:LL concern valid and the CC license bogus. Эlcobbola talk 22:59, 29 July 2020 (UTC)
        • This is a strange case in Polish copyright law that grants the publisher rigths to a previously unpublished "work" that was non-copyrightable or that copyright has expired. And the rights belong to the publisher, not to the author. Unsure how the "first publication right" is handled in other EU countries law. So the PD status was prior to the publication only. Note that "PD status" here is lack of copyright protection only, not a legal term. However, the US copyright status may be the clue here. Ankry (talk) 10:28, 30 July 2020 (UTC)

Hello,

I am on the Spike Cohen campaign team and have permission to use and share this image from his podcast. I am updating his page now and trying to get this image into his Career portion of the page. Is there any way to confirm this with you and keep this image for his page?

@Bostonliberty: This does not mean that you are allowed to violate copyright. The source video is claimed to be copyrighted by Muddied Waters Media, published under non-free standard YouTube license, and we have no evidence that you are Muddied Waters Media (as you claimed to be personally the exclusive copyright holder of this image).

This image is the only color image of the academician on Wikipedia and was posted on the Azerbaijani and Russian Wikipedia templates. I am also preparing an English version of this wikipedia.

sehr geehrte Damen und Herren, ich habe den Wikipediaartikel über den Maler Reinhold Heller geschrieben. Von der Familie des verstorbenen Künstlers habe ich ein privates Photo des Künstlers bekommen, um es auf Wikipedia zusammen mit dem Artikel zu veröffentlichen. Ich bin also nicht der Urheber, ich kenne nicht den Photographen, habe das Photo aber von den Erben und damit von den Rechteinhabern am Bild zur Veröffentlichung erhalten. Da ich die Fragen nach dem Urheberrecht wahrheitsgemäß beantwortet habe, wurde das Bild jetzt wegen unklarer Urheberrechtslage gelöscht. Die Familie des Künstlers hat sich sehr über die Veröffentlichung des Photos gefreut und auch für die Nutzer sind Photos aus meiner Sicht immer ein Gewinn. Ich hoffe also auf diesem Wege das Bild für den Artikel zurückgewinnen zu können. Herzlichen dank für Ihre Bemühungen!Yorick19 (talk) 17:08, 1 August 2020 (UTC)

Otherwise, it is not possible that its copyright expired before 1996 (50 years since publication or 75 years since creation if author is anonymous).

The photo is neither a copyright violation nor a trademark violation."

@TitusMax: If a permission is send on behalf of legal entity (a company or an organization), OTRS policy requires that it is send using an official address that is trackable through public records. Otherwise, the permission cannot be accepted. The address used to send the permission in ticket:2020042610002672 was not the official one or not trackable.

President George W Bush portrait.jpg

I believe the painting of George W. Bush by John Howard Sanden is in the public domain, I emailed him a while back and inquired whether he claims copyright over this painting. He told me it is in the property of the White House Historical Association, and his website corroborates this, where his paintings of Lincoln, T. Roosevelt, F.D. Roosevelt, Reagan, and Trump are in his own private copyright, whilst George W. Bush is listed within the copyright of said-organization. MyPreferredUsernameWasTaken (talk) 17:41, 4 August 2020 (UTC)

  •  Oppose - Why would any of this make the painting public domain? Notwithstanding the contradiction of "I believe the painting [...] is in the public domain" and "[the painting is] within the copyright of said-organization," the w:White House Historical Association is a private NPO, not a federal entity (even if it were, the United States Government is not precluded from receiving and holding copyrights transferred to it.) The WHHA, further, does not appear inclined towards freeness; their website says, for example "All copyright rights to the Sites, including rights to the work and designs provided by the WHHA are owned by the WHHA, © 2000-2018, The White House Historical Association. All rights reserved. You cannot re-transmit, print or photocopy the materials on this Site for re-distribution in any medium without the written permission of the WHHA." (Which is also a notice one would not find on a federal site.) If WHHA holds the copyright ("within the copyright of said-organization"), it will need to provide permission using the COM:OTRS process. Эlcobbola talk 18:16, 4 August 2020 (UTC)

Both files were deleted due to no FOP (pls. see Commons:Deletion requests/File:Church of the holy sacrifice historical marker 1.jpg for reference). However, a glance at Category:Church of the Holy Sacrifice historical marker proves that deletion is invalid. Using Commons:Deletion requests/File:Paco Park - Gomburza Memorare NHCP historical marker.jpg, markers such as these are commissioned by the National Historical Commission of the Philippines or NHCP (for the markers of the old era, by the predecessors of NHCP). According to @Seav: , such works are works of the Philippine government and owned by the state. He even introduced this enwiki article as an evidence: w:Historical_markers_of_the_Philippines.

Per Commons:Deletion requests/File:Churchbaler2jf.jpg, it depicts a plaque (I feel that it is the same as File:Baler Church in Aurora province historical marker.jpg, the NHCP marker or Baler Church).

According to the user who deleted these, they were under the impression that the copyrights for the issues (that the images came from) were renewed on the basis that the Brooklyn Eagle renewed an issue as early as January 6, 1933. This is not evidence that any issue after after 1940 or 1950 was renewed. (The only specific info in the database is the text "see 1961 January-June", but the periodical renewals for that period have no listing for the Brooklyn Eagle.)

Reason: The photographs were taken by the uploader User:Fotokannan himself. I do not think we need to ask for OTRS permission. Also, the paper/film they are holding qualifies to be De minimis. Please undelete. Sreejith K (talk) 17:36, 3 August 2020 (UTC)

 Info They were deleted as they lack EXIF metadata. Ankry (talk) 22:31, 3 August 2020 (UTC)
  •  Support Lack of EXIF is not, in and of itself, a reason to delete. His other uploads (e.g. File:Solar eclipse of December 26, 2019 Kollam 8.resized.jpg) establish that he did in fact attend the event. I see no reason to doubt that he is telling the truth that the first photo is his son. It seems the FB determination was based solely on the metadata; Tineye turns up blank, so he probably didn't upload them to Facebook publicly. So currently we don't have an email address for OTRS to confirm, and it is an unreasonable intrusion of privacy to ask someone to make a private Facebook photo public just so we can verify the copyright (they might be content to share the photo itself, but not necessarily the Facebook comments on it). So in these cases we have to assume good faith. I agree with the COM:DM assessment as well. -- King of ♥ 22:56, 3 August 2020 (UTC)
  •  Oppose I disagree with KoH above. The images were clearly previously published elsewhere, albeit not publically. This is not about AFG but clear policy--Files previously published elsewhere require permission using the OTRS process. If Fotokannan is the photographer, they can supply OTRS with the original images including metadata as evidence. Ìch heiss Nat. Redd mìt mìr.🥨 11:35, 7 August 2020 (UTC)
    @Nat: Then what we would need is not OTRS, but original EXIF, which the uploader can supply here on-wiki as well. OTRS serves no purpose when we have no idea what email address might be tied to the place of alternate publication; in such cases it is a judgment call based on heuristics rather than a strict policy requirement. Additionally, he uploaded an event from December 26, 2019 on December 27, 2019, so it was uploaded to Commons almost immediately. He seems to use two cameras, a Canon 750D and a Samsung SM-J700F, and the pixel-level quality and compression artefacts match that of his other mobile uploads, e.g. File:Villupattu at kollam.jpg, so I don't view even the original file as necessary here. -- King of ♥ 13:33, 7 August 2020 (UTC)

File:Thomas Wangsmo.jpg Why are you deleting images that I myself have created and uploaded to Wikimedia Commons?

I am Thomas Wangsmo, the person in and creator of this photo, something I clearly stated when uploading it. What else do you require? This truly is some Kafkaesque behaviour on your part. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Thomaswangsmo (talk • contribs) 14:41, 11 August 2020 (UTC)

  •  Oppose - As you no doubt noticed, you were not required to provide any verification whatsoever to register the name Thomaswangsmo. Because anyone can register any name (rather the opposite of Kafkaesque oppression), and because fans and the like not uncommonly do register names of their intended subjects, we require out of fairness and pragmatism that additional evidence of permission be provided for previously published works. As this image was previously published here with no indication of the purported cc-by-sa-3.0 license, you will need to provide that additional evidence--either adding that license to that site or using the process at COM:OTRS. As a "screenwriter and director," you presumably understand the importance of intellectual properties and might appreciate our efforts to ensure yours are protected. Failing that, accusing us ("your part") of oppressive, nightmarish behaviour is both ridiculous and contrary to the assumption of good faith and maintenance of a collegial atmosphere.

I am Thomas Wangsmo, the creator of this photo/poster and of the feature film it is promoting, something I clearly stated when uploading it. What else do you require? This truly is some Kafkaesque behaviour on your part. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Thomaswangsmo (talk • contribs) 14:43, 11 August 2020 (UTC)

  •  Oppose - In addition to being previously published and thus requiring COM:OTRS evidence of permission, being the director of a film (e.g,, per poster: "En Film Av Thomas Wangsmo") does not inherently relate to the possession of copyrights (e.g., Spielberg does not hold the copyright to Jaws). As the poster appears to be predominately a still from the film, its creation would be the creation of a derivative work (alternatively, cinematography, for example, is Patrik Säfström.) Accordingly, the aforementioned permission would optimally be provided by the film's production companies (apparently Star Media Entertainment and Vidvinkel Film.)

While, if the map is jest cropped version of an existing OSM map, it would be {{ODbL OpenStreetMap}}, but if it is a modified map (as the provided "author" info suggests) it may be under another license (or even without a license - if unpublished or copyvio itself). However, as the source link seems to be dead (directs to a login page) and no OSM source was provided, I am unable to verify whether the map is under ODbL or under another license.

The YouTube account was closed. It was not terminated for TOC violation. CC is not revocable. --Emir of Wikipedia (talk) 16:17, 16 July 2020 (UTC)

For consistency you can check Category:LOVE (magazine), as I believe some of those are also from the old channel. If I recall correctly almost everyone of the videos on the old channel was listed as CC. For what it is worth Love is a professional magazine company owned by Condé Nast. --Emir of Wikipedia (talk) 15:07, 20 July 2020 (UTC)
  • @Emir of Wikipedia: Here's the issue: The work was clearly not by LOVE or Condé Nast, but by Kaia Gerber and it is pretty evident. We would need evidence (typically via OTRS) that either LOVE or Condé Nast would have the appropriate rights to relicense the work or that Gerber licensed the work herself under the stated licence. The absence of such means that the content cannot be hosted here and should remain deleted per COM:PCP. Ìch heiss Nat. Redd mìt mìr.🥨 21:16, 20 July 2020 (UTC)
It is only clear or evident to those who can see the file, am not an admin so I can't see it, just working from memory.

  • @Emir of Wikipedia: While there are some I might bring into question, all the current files do appear to be the works of LOVE and Condé Nast or work product which LOVE or CN could claim to be the copyright holder. Although the file in question does appear to be for a LOVE marketing campaign of sorts, the video description clearly indicates that Gerber is the one recording, and had sent in the video. There is no indication that Gerber was an employee, and the norm is to assume that such a video remains her intellectual property. And while there is without a doubt that the video was used with permission from the copyright holder, there is also no indication that Gerber released the work under the licence stated on the video page. Ìch heiss Nat. Redd mìt mìr.🥨 00:54, 21 July 2020 (UTC)

  • That's what I was trying to say. But clearly didn't say it very well. If a website places a CC licence it doesn't necessarily mean the site operator or uploader is issuing a licence. It may be they are reporting what licence has previously been issued by the creator or their licensee. Thincat (talk) 11:56, 21 July 2020 (UTC)
  • Like I said, the former channel (in YT lingo, the "creator"), i.e. that of LOVE, has a pattern of having attached a CC-BY licence to all content it publishes on YouTube. Channels on that site rarely report what licence has previously been issued by the creator or their licensee. They are not reporting. This is a clear example of a channel attempting to license something that may not be theirs to license. That's it. Ìch heiss Nat. Redd mìt mìr.🥨 00:38, 22 July 2020 (UTC)

The photo shooting took place in a press conference for the charity back in August 25, 2019. You will notice none of the similar photos you googled online have the exact same angle bar one. If you take a good look, the one that is almost identical is still different because the tv station name on the microphone was purposefully blurred. I personally did that before giving it to Cheryl Hsieh as a fan for her IG post. The one you deleted is the original one. You will not find one online without the tv station name on the microphone being blurred. I appreciate your dedication to copyright protection, but I don't see any violation in this. — Preceding unsigned comment added by NepotismTW (talk • contribs) 03:04, 13 August 2020 (UTC)

The other photo available on the net (eg. here or here seems to be indeed slightly different (eg. the microphone on the right is out of focus). However, this might be just photoshopped; the photographer position seems to be the same. Incomplete EXIF data is also not helpful here. Inconclusive IMO. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ankry (talk • contribs) 10:32, 13 August 2020‎ (UTC)
@NepotismTW: Do you still have the original, unedited photo on your phone/camera? -- King of ♥ 14:48, 13 August 2020 (UTC)
@King of Hearts: I unfortunately can no longer find the original due to passing on the copy carelessly between phones and computers in the past. If someone wants to suggest I can "photoshop" a photo I got online with blurred tv station logo on the microphone and then make it clear again, I honestly don't know how to do it and I find that offensive. If it helps with my case and you are willing to take a look, I still have the uncropped copy of that photo. Logically there should be no way I can get a cropped photo online and magically "photoshop" it into an uncropped version, correct? I'm new to the wiki community and not too sure how I can show you my photo. Please let me know. Thanks.NepotismTW (talk) 14:07, 14 August 2020 (UTC)
@NepotismTW: I have restored the image so you can just reupload without having to fill out the file description again. Steps to upload the uncropped version:
  1. Go to Special:Upload.
  2. Click "Browse..."
  3. Select the file on your computer.
  4. Type "Cheryl0825.jpg" in "Destination filename".
  5. You should see that most of the fields are greyed out. Do not fill out anything else. Just click "Upload file" at the bottom.
Your new upload should appear over the old one. You can revert it again to the cropped version if you want. -- King of ♥ 04:45, 15 August 2020 (UTC)
@King of Hearts: Thank you so much. You will notice with the uncropped version, the microphone is shown basically in whole with the reporter’s watch visible as well.

Good Evening Ankry

I am replying to the following:

And why do you wish to restore the empty Category:Media missing permission as of 6 August 2020 ? Ankry (talk) 22:44, 15 August 2020 (UTC)

I was one of the editors for the Charlie Talbert page and contacted the photographer, Lawrence Turner, who is also the copyright holder of the image ( File: Charles Talbert - Tan Coat.jpg ) and was under the impression he, Lawrence Turner, had contacted permissions-commons@wikimedia.org to prove that he, Lawrence Turner, is the copyright holder and photographer of the image & has given his permission to use said photo. Initially, I worked with, Lawrence Turner, and thought we (KosherKathy & Lawrence Turner) had followed instructions. Larence Turner chose how he wanted the image to be shared and I sent in the correspondence to permissions-commons@wikimedia.org. I am still confused on why it was not approved and asked him to resubmit directly from his personal email. At this time I was under the impression he had and everything was fine.

What is the best avenue to move forward?

Thank you for your time, KosherKathy

No FOP per Commons:Deletion requests/Files in Category:Life Theater (Manila), as its architect died in 1975, so 1975+50=2025 (+1=2026). Nevertheless, w:Life Theater states that it was completed in 1941, and rebuilt in 1946. Henceforth, it is not protected by copyright if using @Clindberg: 's statement at this successful undeletion request for File:Philippines National Museum.jpg (completed in 1921, rebuilt in 1946) and File:Supreme Court of the Philippines.jpg (the dates are confusing at w:Supreme Court of the Philippines, unfortunately). To summarize Clindberg's position: the American copyright law, in which the Philippine copyright law is based, was enacted in 1909 for the then-PHL Is., but didn't explicitly mentioned architecture. PHL joined the convention in 1951, though a new law that replaced the outdated American-era law was enacted in 1972. This new law only retained copyright for subjects that were in actual copyright, i.e. excluding architecture. As such the copyright protection for architecture is "non-retroactive" and buildings completed from 1971 backwards are considered PD. To add one reason to prove this, no case law has ever filed to prosecute any photographers in the Philippines taking pictures of older buildings.

The file was deleted on 9 August 2020 by User:Regasterios stating "No permission since 30 July 2020". However, I don't see any reason for this:

  1. The coat of arms of LSE was adopted and published in 1922 (Source), hence it is public domain under PD-old.
  2. Since the LSE is a state entity, its coat of arms also falls under Crown copyright and is therefore once more public domain under PD-UKGov.
  3. And according to COM:COA, it is even public domain under PD-Coat of arms.
  4. Furthermore, the SVG-file itself was not created by LSE, but by User:Svgnickel and User:RaphaelQS, who uploaded it under a CC-BY-SA 3.0 license on Commons.

As far as I know, the coat of arms has never changed since 1922. This is the only picture of a different beaver; even on reliefs around campus (see also here), it always shows the version of the deleted file. I guess these were just different artistic interpretations of the same description. TheGlobetrotter (talk) 01:22, 12 August 2020 (UTC)

There is no freedom of panorama needed because this is a banner reporting the village budget for the year 2017. Village is under the government of Indonesia. Jeromi Mikhael (talk) 07:29, 12 August 2020 (UTC)

This might be {{PD-IDGov}}, but I don't know whether it counts as being published by the (national) government. --rimshottalk 22:33, 13 August 2020 (UTC)
Some correction. After seeing the picture again, there is a logo of the Ministry of Villages, Development of Disadvantaged Regions, and Transmigration in the right top corner of the banner. Apparently the banner is published by funding from the ministry. Jeromi Mikhael (talk) 03:52, 14 August 2020 (UTC)
And the law clearly states in the appendix of the law that "Any Publication, Distribution, Communication, and/or Reproduction executed by or on behalf of the government" also includes "results of research conducted at State expenses". As villages in Indonesia is under the Ministry of Villages, Development of Disadvantaged Regions, then the village is clearly funded by the Ministry as part of the government of Indonesia. See the pdf attachment. Jeromi Mikhael (talk) 04:06, 14 August 2020 (UTC)
  • Many entities receive government funding, but it does not make them under the government. But to the point: Articles 43 through 48, in essence, governs what constitutes fair use and what is not a copyright infringement. But, what is clear is that, they do not exempt commercial uses and does make allowances for derivatives. Ìch heiss Nat. Redd mìt mìr.🥨 15:31, 14 August 2020 (UTC)
  •  Weak support If the logo is of the Ministry, we can consider the banned to be a work of government. Ankry (talk) 15:37, 14 August 2020 (UTC)
    • @Ankry: Having a ministry emblem slapped on doesn't make it a work of the national government. The work depicted appears to be the work of the local government, which is not exempted. Furthermore, the law does not enumerate such works as having no copyright, but are rather exempted under a certain set of circumstances, making the usage, communication, reproduction, and distribution of such works fair use. At no point does the law allow for derivatives making the clause akin or similar in nature to a ND licence. --Ìch heiss Nat. Redd mìt mìr.🥨 15:48, 14 August 2020 (UTC)
@Nat: Check page 70 of this pdf and give your opinion. The village is funded by the Ministry of Villages, Development of Disadvantaged Regions, regardless of whether a banner with the ministry logo exists. Jeromi Mikhael (talk) 23:36, 14 August 2020 (UTC)
There is no official statement of whether the government referred here is talking about national government only or also cover regional governments; please don't give your own interpretation unless you are an expert on Indonesian law. I myself wasn't sure about this matter, but it seems that the government (per appendix) refers to national government as State in the appendix. Jeromi Mikhael (talk) 23:40, 14 August 2020 (UTC)
Note: The Wikimedia Indonesia Telegram group has been notified about this matter.
  • Again, the articles 43 through 48, does not exempt work from copyright protection, but defines what does not constitute a copyright infringement--The Indonesian version of fair use. The law only enumerates certain works that have no copyright under articles 41 and 42. Not all government works are exempted from protection under the law. Furthermore, while the government may publish, distribute, communicate, and/or reproduce a work without infringing copyright, this does not mean that an individual may do the same.

Reopening request; Hilmanasdf from Wikimedia Indonesia telegram has prepared a statement for this purpose. Jeromi Mikhael (talk) 11:43, 15 August 2020 (UTC)
Hi, there. I'm the one who made the templates for all new Indonesia's copyright law license tag in Wikimedia Commons as part of Creative Commons Indonesia activities (part of Wikimedia Indonesia project) two years ago. When you take a look at article number 43b's context, it's all referring to "works" as in "objects"/"things". That's why in this matter, the legal interpretation (law interpretation are essentials in legal studies) made by this article also fall into public domain related provisions of the Law No. 28 of 2014 on Copyright Protection (it's not literally put in the same section with copyright terms protection, because it mentioned certain clause about limitations and/or conditions). You can see in article number 43a, it refers to state emblems and state anthems as government's owned works which able to be used by the public without restriction (if only it follows Law No. 24 of 2009 on the National Flag, Language, Emblem and Anthem appropriateness). And the article number 43c refers to state officials which also a form of referral to objects (which also require appropriateness in it's usages). So, the appropriate interpretation of 43b’s are for every publication made by the government (you can see lists of government bodies related to this clause on article number 43c) are legally free to be used by anyone, in this matter: Public Domain. This is the reason why I'm sure to put this as one of our PD-ID license tag templates. Your interpretation of our law and your act of deletion to this file could be harmful to files uploaded in this website using this license tag. So, with all due respect, I ask you to accept this undeletion request and take my legal arguments as a precedent to this matter. Thank you Hilmanasdf (talk) 18:47, 15 August 2020 (UTC)
  • @Hilmanasdf: I've re-read Article 43b and while it is clear that "Acts that are not considered as Copyright infringements include: [...] Any Publication, Distribution, Communication, and/or Reproduction executed by or on behalf of the government, unless stated to be protected by laws and regulations, a statement to such Works, or when Publication, Distribution, Communication, and/or Reproduction to such Works are made", the language (i.e. choice of words, syntax, etc) used in the text does not seem to place government works in public domain as you've asserted here and the authorisation to modify said works or the creation of derivatives do not seem to be enumerated in the text. The chapter title is notably named Copyright limitations and not Copyright exemptions. There is an assertion of copyright over government works. Only works enumerated under articles 41 and 42 are exempted from copyright protections or have no copyright, and the work depicted in the file is clearly not enumerated in those articles. Ìch heiss Nat. Redd mìt mìr.🥨 13:50, 15 August 2020 (UTC)
@Nat: I've re-read Article 41b on "Unprotected Works under Copyrights" and the article stated that "every idea, procedure, system, method, concept, principle, findings or data despite having been expressed, stated, described, explained, or incorporated in a Work". The budget is a data on village funds. Clear enough? Jeromi Mikhael (talk) 14:39, 15 August 2020 (UTC)
Put this request on hold. There's a discussion in the group to discuss this matter with the Ministry of Law and Human Rights in order to liberate this image constitutionally and to prevent foreigners misinterpreting Indonesian law. Jeromi Mikhael (talk) 00:33, 16 August 2020 (UTC)
  • Please note: There are other questions. Who is/are the author(s) / creator(s) of the images used? Who took the photo of the government building? Who is the architect of the government building in the photo used in the depicted work? Are they still alive or they deceased? If deceased, when did they die? Who created/took the image/stock photo of the landscape? etc. etc. Ìch heiss Nat. Redd mìt mìr.🥨 03:50, 16 August 2020 (UTC)
1) Image taken by me, 2) The author of the image used in the banner is anonymous and worked for the village government. Seriously? If these kind of questions existed, then we would see banners superimposed by the names of the author (attribution ftw), and banners would lose its meaning. I don't know, but for me, these kind of questions felt like this is inclining to an interrogation rather than a discussion. We should conduct a mass deletion of Indonesian images if these kind of itty-bitty details must be asked.Jeromi Mikhael (talk) 06:16, 16 August 2020 (UTC)

  • David Wadie Fisher-Freberg should have opened a discussion prior to changing the page. Other than orthographical errors, it has not been determined that Article 43 in fact places government works and other works enumerated under this article in public domain. The government's own translated text is akin to a somewhat free licence, but does not exclude the works from protection. As I've previously stated articles 43 through 48 define what is not a copyright infringement but does not exempted them from copyright all together. Ìch heiss Nat. Redd mìt mìr.🥨 23:20, 16 August 2020 (UTC)
@Nat: If you check on the page 4 of the law, distribution means "the sale, circulation, and/or dissemination of Works and/or Related Rights products" So there is no copyright violation, even for the commercial use of the work. Jeromi Mikhael (talk) 00:24, 17 August 2020 (UTC)
This is the funny thing: you think that the work is copyrighted, but the government allow usage even for "sale, circulation, and/or dissemination of works." We could tag the work with a Template:Copyrighted free use if you insisted that the work is copyrighted. Jeromi Mikhael (talk) 00:34, 17 August 2020 (UTC)
@Nat: If you're gonna handle this undeletion request, don't just read the Template:PD-IDGov only. There's a list of definition in Article 1 of the law. Jeromi Mikhael (talk) 01:02, 17 August 2020 (UTC)
Again, read what I am writing carefully. The author is anonymous and who ever does the work it is "executed on behalf of the government". Jeromi Mikhael (talk) 01:20, 17 August 2020 (UTC)
  • If the author of the images used on the banner is anonymous, then how do we know if the works were "executed on behalf of the government"? We do not. The image of the building depicted on the banner: who is the author? You've asserted that they are anonymous. While the government is within it's right to use it, does not mean that that image is in public domain or freely licensed. The building. The village government may own the tangible embodiment of the work. But who was the architect (the assumed copyright holder and owner of the intangible intellectual property)? Were they an employee of the government or was it designed by a private firm? If the latter, are they still living or are they deceased? If the latter, when? The other images are clearly stock images. Where did they come from? And even if every part of the work and the works depicted in the work was "executed on behalf of the government", it's still clear, article 43 does not enumerate any allowances for derivative works and does not completely exempt works from copyright protections. To be clear, I'm basing my position on the text of the law, which you have pointed to on multiple occasions. And Article 43 is the part that concern the matter at hand. --Ìch heiss Nat. Redd mìt mìr.🥨 02:12, 17 August 2020 (UTC)

Seriously, as an admin, at least read the contents of Template:Commons policies and guidelines. Jeromi Mikhael (talk) 03:10, 17 August 2020 (UTC)
  • (Edit conflict) De minimis does not factor into this as the work is a collage, and therefore a derivative work. And as such, the constituent parts must be considered. But such argument are a side note to what I've now stated on multiple occasions: Even if every part of the work and the works depicted in the work was "executed on behalf of the government", article 43 does not enumerate any allowances for derivative works and does not completely exempt works from copyright protections. Ìch heiss Nat. Redd mìt mìr.🥨 03:21, 17 August 2020 (UTC)
  • Furthermore, accusing me of not reading policy will not sway me. DM in this case was considered and rejected because of what I wrote above. And I will repeat again, until my point is understood: Even if every part of the work and the works depicted in the work was "executed on behalf of the government", article 43 does not enumerate any allowances for derivative works and does not completely exempt works from copyright protections.

Two files by Hariboneagle927 and one file sourced from Batanes provincial government

These three files were uploaded by @Hariboneagle927: , and were deleted on the basis of a "loophole" in the PD-status of government works:

(addition) And the so-called "terms of use" of PNA website. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 02:35, 15 August 2020 (UTC)

For references:

Nevertheless, majority of Filipino Wikipedians has repeatedly (yes, repeatedly) said and said that all Philippine government works (including photographs), from national government to attached agencies to local governments, fall under PD as works by the Philippine government, as evidenced in the following insights:

For the status of LGU-owned photographic works:

- "First off, local governments have no independent legal personality -- the Philippines, after all, is a unitary state. In the previous discussion way back when, it was confirmed by Anyo Niminus, a government lawyer, that local governments are considered part of the "Government of the Philippines", and all their works are considered part of that body. As such, they are also covered under PD per the provisions of the Intellectual Property Code." — It is true, as a unitary state, works made by provincial and even municipal are bound to the copyright law of the Philippines, stating that government works are automatically PD.

For the status of PNA photos:

- "The "otherwise noted" is not actually in the text of the law: https://www.officialgazette.gov.ph/1997/06/06/republic-act-no-8293/. This "otherwise noted" is mainly for content whose copyright is owned by third parties and has been transferred to the government, but this sourcing should be explicitly indicated." — To interpret this, it may include citizens' report videos shared to PTV (similar to ABS-CBN New's Bayan Mo Ipatrol Mo and GMA News' YouScooper) or shared photos from private citizens to PNA or the like. To my understanding there's no indication that the two PNA photos are sourced from third-parties. In some cases PTV might also host copyrighted material from ABS-CBN, GMA and the like. (to interpret the statement of @Psiĥedelisto: from the template talk page).

With regards to the "...prior approval of the government agency or office...for exploitation of such work for profit. Such agency or office ... impose as a condition the payment of royalties...," Sky Harbor once said (also on template talk page): "Next, I continue to maintain the position that the provision on non-commercial use is unenforceable: there is no copyright on works of the government of the Philippines, so such permission can only exist outside of copyright. Yes, I think Marcos was generalizing when that provision was inserted in PD 49 when it was passed, and it frankly shouldn't have been inserted, as was the case in the law that it had preceded."

Again to repeat Seav's statement at w:Wikipedia talk:Tambayan Philippines/Archive44#Copyright status of PTV4 content?: "As long as the content is clearly the work of PTV (e.g., no news reports showing viral citizen journalism videos), I think the video/media is kosher for Commons as a work of the government." JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 16:16, 14 August 2020 (UTC)

  •  Support undeletion for the work by the local government. However,  Neutral/ not so sure for the works of the PNA. The files were not deleted due to the so-called loophole mentioned above, but were deleted as a result of the PNA's terms of use and the PNA's assertion of copyright. --Ìch heiss Nat. Redd mìt mìr.🥨 18:47, 14 August 2020 (UTC)
  •  Support undeletion of both. The PNA has no right to assert copyright, as JWilz12345 correctly surmises. The "unless otherwise noted" is entirely an invention of the executive branch and is null and void. Let the rule of law prevail, they have no right to modify the law, only the Philippine Congress can. The broader public has a right to freely use all works of the PNA, and Commons ought to recognize that. Psiĥedelisto (talk) 22:44, 14 August 2020 (UTC)
Added comment by the requester: It has been accepted that PNA photos fall under PD-gov in the Philippines. Examples include these three photos from PNA that were uploaded way back 2018: File:Marawi chopper airstrike.jpg, File:Senate hearing Philippine Citizenship Aug 2018.jpg, and File:Philippine International Ice Hockey Tournament 2017 opening.jpg. Also to add is this vital photo being used in article covering the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic in the Philippines - File:Philippine Airlines grounded planes COVID19.jpg JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 02:34, 15 August 2020 (UTC)

  • Hello @Svtejada: , I speak while only seeing the name of the file, not its contents, but the name suggests that it is actually a photograph of you. That is because you say that you are Sandy Tejada and the file is named "SandyTejada.jpeg". The copyright law protects the rights of the author of any work, if I take a photograph of you, then I am an author and you are the subject. If I draw you then I am the author and you are the subject. In both cases I have the copyright. In fact even if you buy a painting or yourself or a photograph of you, the copyright is still with the person who has created the work. The exception to that is if we are talking about a selfie. Is the file in question a selfie? ℺ Gone Postal ( ) 09:58, 15 August 2020 (UTC)
  • Comment to @Svtejada: generally, but usually, copyright laws around the world follow U.S. jurisprudence. Pls see https://www.technologylawsource.com/2015/04/articles/intellectual-property-1/who-owns-the-photo/ To quote the very critical passage regarding this: "Under U.S. law, copyright in a photograph is the property of the person who presses the shutter on the camera — not the person who owns the camera, and not even the person in the photo. Unless a written agreement exists that makes the photo a work made for hire, any person you ask to take your picture with your camera owns the copyright in that photo — not you." This means that you may own "your photo," but you don't own the copyright of your photo, unless you can prove the transfer of copyright through a written agreement, or if this is a photo for hire. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 11:44, 15 August 2020 (UTC)
  •  Oppose (1) The uploader declares themselves to be the author of the image. If they are also the subject, then this is violation of the photographer's moral rights as the image is not a selfie. (2) The image was published elsewhere prior to be uploaded to Commons, so the policy requires free license evidence to be provided. Pure uploader's declaration who as we know provided some incorrect information about authorship cannot be relied on in such cases. We have COM:OTRS procedure.

As I understand it the claim is that no photograph from Iran is under copyright. I am not an expert on Iran, but it sounds false, and Commons:Copyright rules by territory/Iran seems to agree with me. You are probably referring to the fact that Iran is not a member signatory to Berne convention. However, if the photogaph has not been published in Iran or if it was published outside of Iran within 30 days, then it is still copyrighted. So if you would need to show evidence that 1) It was published in Iran, 2) It was only published in Iran... and that would only get you to be able to use it as a public domain work. I am unsure if Commons allows such a public domain claim, since we usually respect local copyright laws even when only US laws would apply. ℺ Gone Postal ( ) 17:39, 16 August 2020 (UTC)
  •  Oppose - 1) Merely saying "free to use" is not adequate (for example, per COM:L: "simply writing that 'the material may be used freely by anyone' or similar isn't sufficient"); 2) even it is were, this is license laundering. Per the watermark, the photographer is Hooman Faraji. We would not accept a statement by the subject (i.e., from www.djphellix.com related to a photo of djphellix) without evidence of permission or transfer from the photographer. This is especially the case when more complete versions of the image appear elsewhere, including on the record label's website (!!!), with an assertion of copyright; and 3) accusation of carelessness and harassment is a ridiculous failure of COM:AGF, to say nothing of tone-deaf irony per the foregoing.

I am the founder and CEO of Sayspring. This image was taken as a work-made-for-hire (aka "work made for hire" or "work for hire") by one of my Sayspring employees that I hired and I employed and whose assigned duties at Sayspring included taking still and moving images and audio at events that Sayspring participated in. I own this image. I have always owned this image.

I do not need a transfer agreement from my photographer employee, written or otherwise, to convey any or all copyrights to me. The image is a work-made-for-hire, and therefore was always the property of the employer (me).

For many years I have used this image as a thumbnail on my Sayspring YouTube channel.

Here is the thumbnail I stored on YouTube:

A cropped version of File:Itbayat Church 2019 earthquake.jpg. File was deleted on the same manner as that of its mother file, but nevertheless it has been agreed that derivative works from LGU photos do not cause problems, as LGU works also fall under PD as Philippine government works. To quote from Sky Harbor's insight on the Template talk:PD-PhilippinesGov: "First off, local governments have no independent legal personality -- the Philippines, after all, is a unitary state. In the previous discussion way back when, it was confirmed by Anyo Niminus, a government lawyer, that local governments are considered part of the "Government of the Philippines", and all their works are considered part of that body. As such, they are also covered under PD per the provisions of the Intellectual Property Code." JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 02:54, 17 August 2020 (UTC)

Also, no permission link seems to be provided by you while uploading. For OTRS permissions we need to wait until they are verified on per file basis.

Moreover, for any photo that has been published elsewhere priore to its upload to Commons we need a written free license permission from the actual copyright holder: either in the initial publication or following COM:OTRS instructions.

Hello,

I request above file to be restored on the wiki page https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ksar_Maghnia because the file is an extract from Google maps and the source of the file has been clearly mentionned as per copyright policy.

best regrads — Preceding unsigned comment added by Asso.maghnia (talk • contribs) 2020-08-17 12:59:57 (UTC)

  • @Asso.maghnia: It is actually an interesting legal question whether it is ok to use correct Google maps on other sites. Current community concesus on this site is that these maps are copyrighted. My opinion is that only intentional errors are (and Google has been known to add them to find which sites use their maps without permission). However, even if the community were to accept my position, you would need to prove that the map is exactly correct, and by that time you would do sufficient work to actually have a map that you can actually use without the need of Google maps. Therefore, the file is unlikely to be restored. You can consider using freely licenced maps, for example Open Street Maps for your image, then everything will be ok. ℺ Gone Postal ( ) 13:08, 17 August 2020 (UTC)

File was deleted because of no-FOP in UAE (Commons:Deletion requests/Files in Category:Dubai). But this rans contrary to an earlier decision at Commons:Deletion requests/File:South Ridge on 22 June 2007.jpg, in which the photo is treated as "safe" because it complies COM:DM (as a skyline pic, according to the admin who closed the earlier discussion). There was no thorough discussion at the newer deletion discussion. I think the mass deletion was done arbitrary. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 11:24, 18 August 2020 (UTC)

The item should have had a {{PD-Art}} licence. It's a photo of a monumental brass, a 2-D flat item, exactly like an oil painting (the oil of which can be as thick as an engraved line can be deep), which is free from copyright after 100 years from the death of the creator of the art work. The file should not therefore have been deleted. "Photographs, taken either by yourself or someone else, that are faithful reproductions of 2D public domain works of art." See Commons:Copyright rules by subject matter . I should have used licence {{PD-Art}}, as monumental brass is essentially the same as "photograph of an old stained glass window or tapestry found on the Internet or in a book ✓OK. Although many materials such as stained glass and fabric possess some three-dimensional texture, at ordinary viewing distances this texture is essentially invisible. As long as the surface is not noticeably curved or tattered/broken, and the original work is old enough to have entered the public domain, it is considered a faithful reproduction of the original with no original contribution. {{PD-Art}} does not apply to 3D works of art such as sculptures, since the photographer was able to generate originality by virtue of a choice of viewpoints and lighting arrangements. Anything that could cast a shadow is excluded".(Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag) Monumental brasses are not sculptures, they are essentially flat, no shadows cast. Please retore file.

Renewed undeletion request for files relating to Wang Bingzhang (dissident)

The relevant files are: File:Ni Jinbin Declaration.pdf, File:Royal Thai Police statement regarding Wang Bingzhang.pdf, File:Statement by the National Security Bureau (Taiwan).pdf

I am the creator of two of the files (the Ni Jinbin declaration and the Royal Thai Police statement) and I relinquish any copyright rights I might have over them.

The statement by the National Security Bureau is a publicly available document issued by the government of Taiwan, and it has been published before in various news articles. Thus, it's not clear why it shouldn't be considered to be in the public domain already.

I previously submitted an undeletion request which was denied because I didn't respond to a question about use cases for the files. The use cases are to provide sources for updates to the Wikipedia page about Wang Bingzhang (dissident). Updates were recently made, but they have been rolled back for lack of sources, given the deletion of the above files. I'd like to undelete the above files in part so that the updates can be restored.

Thank you for your consideration.

I believe this DR (closed by Jameslwoodward) was wrongly decided, as I doubt those !voting to delete even looked at all the images. Many of them are general cityscapes that we routinely allow per COM:DM France, like File:La Défense as seen from Neuilly-sur-Seine, France - 20111015.jpg. I think bundling so many unrelated images was a poor choice for the nomination, and the entire batch should be undeleted and rerun at COM:DR with individual nominations. -- King of ♥ 04:32, 18 August 2020 (UTC)

@King of Hearts: if I can remember correctly one of those deleted photos was used as the representative view of the commune/city of Courbevoie at w:List of communes in France with over 20,000 inhabitants, way back mid-2014 (when I was still a vistor not involved on Wikipedia/Commons, or in other words not yet an editor, whether IP or with an account like today). I believe that photo also passes COM:DM. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 12:16, 18 August 2020 (UTC)
It appears that was File:Esplanade-de-la-defense.jpg. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 12:17, 18 August 2020 (UTC)
I accessed the screenshot of the article "List of communes in France with over 20,000 inhabitants" (2014 edition) on my device, and looked at the affected image (that was used as representative of Courbevoie). Judging it, in the foreground is what appears to be an elevated walkway. The potentially copyrighted buildings are in background. I assume it is an urban scene that should pass COM:DM France, as the buildings appear to be an accessory to this urban scenery of La Defense. This should have been more compliant than the cropped image - File:La-Defense.jpg - that still exists tiday. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 01:44, 20 August 2020 (UTC)
  • The issue I believe is that the elevated walkway may also be considered one of the protected elements, in addition to the buildings. The problem is that this multi-commune district is relatively recent. Unlike the Louvre image, where there is a protected work (which is DM) in the foreground and PD work (the palace itself) in the background, the architectural works in the foreground and the background may be protected under French law. --Ìch heiss Nat. Redd mìt mìr.🥨 02:12, 20 August 2020 (UTC)
    Those are all fine arguments to make in a DR, but I think there is enough doubt about the way the original case was handled procedurally (i.e. the bundling of very different photos that really ought to be evaluated individually into one nomination) that we ought to just rerun the whole thing. -- King of ♥ 02:38, 20 August 2020 (UTC)

The story of this photo is as follows. The photo was taken in a domestic context. Myrna is friend of Moira's. She just took an ordinary friend by friend photo. As the photographer, she is naturally and automatically the copyright owner in Australian law as I understand it. (Moira Rayner is top lawyer and can easily confirm this.) I uploaded the photo in the usual manner. At the same time Myrna at my request sent the following to permissions-commons@wikimedia.org .

I hereby affirm that I , Myrna Bull, and the photographer and the sole owner of the exclusive copyright of the media work as shown here: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Moira_Rayner.jpg ,[4] and have legal authority in my capacity to release the copyright of that work.

Dear Myrna Bull,

It's difficult for me to determine who the author of this picture. We need to verify authorship as you are using an email address that is not traceable through public records.

Can you provide evidence that you are the author of this picture or the copyright holder (i.e. context, the original picture including metadata, other pictures taken at the same time, etc)?

Yours sincerely, <redacted>


Myrna Bull then wrote back to <redacted> (From her own email - <email redacted>) as follows I am unable to provide copyright for this photo as it is the only photo I have of this occasion. I did not take out copyright on it as it is in my personal collection and I freely share my photos.

My email address is unlikely to be in the public domain.

If you have further concerns please contact me.

Regards

Myrna Bull

What Myrna Bull is saying is that she does not have a copyright claim because it is just an ordinary family photograph taken by a very ordinary friend. On Moira's website is the following about Myrna taken from BING.

-- www.moirarayner.com.au/content_about.html --Myrna Bull has a wealth of experience in management and human rights. As the Northern Territory's Regional Director of the Human Rights and Equal Opportunity Commission she contributed to a range of policy initiatives that had a significant effect on the quality of life of the community.

In the light of the foregoing very genuine circumstances could you please restore the photo to the Moira Rayner site.Gladiator-Citizen (talk) 07:50, 25 August 2020 (UTC)

--Kazimier Lachnovič (talk) 09:06, 25 August 2020 (UTC)
My reason was that it is much more useful to have all the works from that book collected together. I can restore them if for some reason you need them cropped (but why?). In this case please get rid of the surname "Atkinson" in the names and descriptions (Atkinson was the author of the portrait painting used for the front page of the book, he has nothing to do with the photographs).

Request for undeletion - Content is in the academic area...

Hello, my content was deleted a few months ago and I don't understand why that is. The content I believe is of educational and academic value. Various works of original art were uploaded as well as WAV files of contemporary classical original music. I would ask you please to review and see that the works may be undeleted. Looking forward to your reply Thank you

Mrepoulis

Hello, example articles where my work can be included are articles of any of the institutions mentioned in the Mrepoulis biographical sketch. Thank you.

Hello, an example article that my work could be included in, would be 'Academic Music' or 'Contemporary Music', 'Harmony and Counterpoint'. My art work could be included in fantasy, fiction, poetry or novel literature. Also, it can be included in galleries containing illustrations. Please review.

Thank you

Files removed uploaded by Broadmoor

I was accused of violating copyrights laws for pictures below with no evidence by BevinKacon. All the pictures I uploaded should be protected under fair use laws. The person attempted to justify the deletions using examples several years ago of where I was unaware that I couldn't use pictures from online Google searches and websites which I stopped doing. He said he kept my pictures that were uploaded seemingly captured by my Samsung phone but I see pictures deleted below I took. On top of that, none of the pictures are watermarked or clearly copyrighted intellectual property (can't find via online searches). The pictures should be reinstated for the reasons mentioned. My goal is to increase the integrity and appeal of Wikipedia by adding applicable photos (by following the rules).Broadmoor

Below are the images deleted.

@Broadmoor: uploading an image previously published elsewhere and claiming different license than that at the initial publication is considered copyright violation.

Fair Use is not accepted on Commons. We need evidence of free license by the copyright holder or an evidence that copyright already expired. What do you mean by "historical content"? Images made more that 120 years ago can be uploaded as {{PD-old-assumed}}. Ankry (talk) 22:45, 26 August 2020 (UTC)
Historical content does not begin 120 years ago. The photos on the 9/11 Wikipedia page I've seen elsewhere. I'm just saying Wikipedia's appeal and use will suffer due to such stringent standards for photos that I know satisfy fair use clauses. And I used other cell phones for photos deleted which I no longer have and pulled them from my instagram accounts.Broadmoor2 (talk) 23:14, 26 August 2020 (UTC)

Clarification I also mean TV and movie characters. Commons never accepts photos and/or pictures of characters from many TV, cartoon, and movie shows as per Commons' prohibition of fair use content. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 08:14, 27 August 2020 (UTC)

I've got this message on my talk page, "COM:CSD#F10, Personal photos of or by non-contributors". This is not a personal photo, this is a logo of an artist named as K-Luxuriant who is into Hip-Hop/Rap genre. This was released with the consent that it can be used by other bloggers on their blogs. I think that it should be undeleted because as per me, this image is not violating any rights of Wikimedia Commons. Please look into this matter. --Kunalrkadamofficial (talk) 10:28, 27 August 2020 (UTC)

 Oppose Kunal Kudam aka K-Luxuriant is you, isn't it? No need to speak about yourself in the third person. Strictly speaking, only text is not a logo. Unknown in which way any Wikimedia project will have any educational use of this PD-text image only consisting of the the text "K-Luxuriant". Thuresson (talk) 12:23, 27 August 2020 (UTC)

Hi, My image was deleted saying self-promotion. But I am on Wikipedia for any self-promotion. I am writer, I have published my book and been into many publications. Also, a Single Image won't receive much traffic unless people know my name and search for it. People should know my name to search for it and that' show they can know about me.

Thanks for your time.

Answer: copyright is mine. The photo is at my personal Webiste at my institution but it does not belong to the institution. You may accept or not accept the inclusion but in any case you should not tell that it is a violation of copyright becuase the copyright is mine.(MCG2020 (talk) 18:45, 28 August 2020 (UTC))

  •  Oppose @MCG2020: Unfortunately, there is no way we can determine that here. And the image was published elsewhere first without being under a free licence. If you are indeed Maria-Carmen Guisan, you appear to be the subject of the photo and it does not appear to be self-photographed. Please note that ownership or possession of a photo, proprietorship of the equipment used to take the photo, or being the subject of the photo does not equate holding the copyright. The copyright holder is the photographer (i.e. the person who took the photo), rather that the subject (the person who appears in the photo) or the person possessing the photo, unless transferred by operation of law or by contract (written and signed by the first copyright holder as defined by the law, and explicitly transfers the copyright). For the possibility of undeletion, the copyright holder must send permission and a specific release under a acceptable free licence using OTRS. Thank you for your understanding. --Ìch heiss Nat. Redd mìt mìr.🥨 19:28, 28 August 2020 (UTC)

Why has this image been removed? It was a perfect illustration on the Wikipedia article on Islamophobia for many years. In fact the whole article would've been deleted, had this image not been uploaded as a proof, that Islamophobia actually exists. (Yes, after 9/11 there were tons of editors fighting for the article to get deleted.) --19:08, 28 August 2020 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Raphael1 (talk • contribs) 19:08, 28 August 2020‎ (UTC)

 Comment one of the main subject of this image is clearly a drawing that is neither De minimis nor below the Threshold of originality. The photo is a derivative work of this drawing, and the author of this drawing therefore may have some rights in the photo. Hence I  Oppose a potential undeletion.

File was deleted because "no FOP in PHL" (Commons:Deletion requests/File:National Museum, Philippines.JPG). However, it now falls under the exemptions as said in the Commons:FOP Philippines. Using the title, it can be considered as the lead building of the National Museum of the Philippines, in which one of its deleted photos here was successfully undeleted. Last person involved was Toledo, who died in 1972, but the building dates from 1921 as per enwiki article. It falls within the exemption - before November 1972.
