Ps. I've added the rest of your SVG images to the deletion request, since it seems that none of them are actually vectorized. Please try not to take it personally; I'm sure you thought you were being helpful by converting these signatures to the SVG format, but the fact is that, as they are, they're not really useful to us. To make real vector images, you'd have to actually trace the original images into curves (and take care that the result looks like the original), not just embed the raster images into the SVG file. I'm sorry for any time you may feel you've wasted in making these "pseudo-SVG" images, and I hope that you may consider this a useful learning experience rather that a complete loss. I'd also like to thank you for your contributions to Commons in general, and I hope that you'll enjoy contributing images to us also in the future. —Ilmari Karonen (talk) 08:18, 6 July 2010 (UTC)
- Oh buggar. Thanks for pointing that out. Is it simple to convert images to SVG, or must you do it by hand? Adabow (talk) 09:35, 6 July 2010 (UTC)
- There are various programs that can trace the outlines of a raster image into a vector drawing; sometimes they produce quite good results, sometimes not so good. It mostly depends on the size and quality of the original. You may want to take a look at Help:SVG#Converting to SVG and follow the links from there. —Ilmari Karonen (talk) 21:46, 6 July 2010 (UTC)

File:Nicki Minaj-cropped.jpg has been marked as a possible copyright violation. Wikimedia Commons only accepts free content—that is, images and other media files that can be used by anyone, for any purpose. Traditional copyright law does not grant these freedoms, and unless noted otherwise, everything you find on the web is copyrighted and not permitted here. For details on what is acceptable, please read Commons:Licensing. You may also find Commons:Copyright rules useful, or you can ask questions about Commons policies at the Commons:Help desk. If you are the copyright holder and the creator of the file, please read Commons:But it's my own work! for tips on how to provide evidence of that.
The file you added has been deleted. If you have written permission from the copyright holder, please have them send us a free license release via COM:VRT. If you believe that the deletion was not in accordance with policy, you may request undeletion. (It is not necessary to request undeletion if using VRT; the file will be automatically restored at the conclusion of the process.) Warning: Wikimedia Commons takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

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

PD-old vs. PD-1923 (PD-US)
[edit]Hallo! I wonder why you are replacing more universal license PD-Old with PD-1923. PD-Old materials are in public domain in the USA and most other countries. No PD-US or PD-1923 needed in this case. Mithril (talk) 01:27, 19 December 2012 (UTC)
- The PD-old explicitly states "You must also include a United States public domain tag to indicate why this work is in the public domain in the United States." Adabow (talk) 03:39, 19 December 2012 (UTC)
- Do you mean that most European PD-old-70 works published after 1923 are to be deleted? Mithril (talk) 16:24, 19 December 2012 (UTC)
- No, I am simply following the instructions listed on the template. There must be copyright tags for both US and country of origin. If you have a problem with this, please start a discussion somewhere public. Adabow (talk) 05:25, 20 December 2012 (UTC)

Copyright status: File:Michael Redman.jpg
[edit]This media may be deleted. |
Thanks for uploading File:Michael Redman.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. |

Your content in Netherlands Institute for Sound and Vision museum exhibition
[edit]Good evening,
My name is Lotte Baltussen, and I work at the Netherlands Institute for Sound and Vision. We are the archive of Dutch public broadcasters and hold many other types of audiovisual heritage as well. We have recently opened our new exhibition "3FM Presents: Your Serious Radio", which looks back at the last 50 years of pop music on the radio.
One of the interactives of our exhibition is a videomapping installation that depicts a teen room. When visitors enter the exhibition, they provide information that builds up their profile: their year of birth, gender and the favourite radio show, song, musical genre from their teens. This information is used to recreate their teen room; a sparse white space with 25 different elements such as a white bed, desk, and couch that are projected upon when a visitor activates his or her profile. We've divided the teen room into 10 time periods: 1965-1969, 1970-1974 and so forth.
In creating the videomapping, we have used countless free to use images, textures and patterns, among which is your picture of Usher. We'd like to thank you very much for making your content available and thus making it possible us to use it. You can find a complete overview of the content used here, a blog post about the whole process here and pictures of the videomapping here, so you can see your content in action.
Thanks again!
All best,
Lotte Baltussen

File tagging File:Lady Gaga Monster NZ.jpg
[edit]This media was probably deleted.
|
Thanks for uploading File:Lady Gaga Monster NZ.jpg. This media is missing permission information. A source is given, but there is no proof that the author or copyright holder agreed to license the file under the given license. Please provide a link to an appropriate webpage with license information, or ask the author or copyright holder to send an email with copy of a written permission to VRT (permissions-commons@wikimedia.org). You may still be required to go through this procedure even if you are the author yourself; please see Commons:But it's my own work! for more details. After you emailed permission, you may replace the {{No permission since}} tag with {{subst:PP}} on file description page. Alternatively, you may click on "Challenge speedy deletion" below the tag if you wish to provide an argument why evidence of permission is not necessary in this case.
Please see this page for more information on how to confirm permission, or if you would like to understand why we ask for permission when uploading work that is not your own, or work which has been previously published (regardless of whether it is your own). The file probably has been deleted. If you sent a permission, try to send it again after 14 days. Do not re-upload. When the VRT-member processes your mail, the file can be undeleted. Additionally you can request undeletion here, providing a link to the File-page on Commons where it was uploaded ([[:File:Lady Gaga Monster NZ.jpg]] ) and the above demanded information in your request. |

Source of derivative work is not properly indicated: File:Fairfield Bridge3 cropped.jpg
[edit]This file may be deleted. |
A file that you have uploaded to Wikimedia Commons, File:Fairfield Bridge3 cropped.jpg, is a derivative work, containing an "image within an image". Examples of such works would include a photograph of a sculpture, a scan of a magazine cover, or a map that has been altered from the original. In each of these cases, the rights of the creator of the original must be considered, as well as those of the creator of the derivative work.
While the description page states who made this derivative work, it currently doesn't specify who created the original work, so the overall copyright status is unclear. If you did not create the original work depicted in this image, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. Please edit the file description and add the missing information, or the file may be deleted. If you created the original content yourself, enter this information as the source. If someone else created the content, the source should be the address to the web page where you found it, the name and ISBN of the book you scanned it from, or similar. You should also name the author, provide verifiable information to show that the content is in the public domain or has been published under a free license by its author, and add an appropriate template identifying the public domain or licensing status, if you have not already done so. Please add the required information for this and other files you have uploaded before adding more files. If you need assistance, please ask at the help desk. Thank you! |
