Sorry but the requirement that "the image itself is not changed" is unacceptable as Commons policy requires that modification of images is permitted. January (talk) 16:46, 19 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Well, fine, so we change the permission, no problem. I received the photograph from the composer (Raymond Deane) himself, the photograph being taken by his wife, Renate Debrun, with the express wish to have it published on Wikimedia/Wikipedia. I have tried to re-upload the image, but it was not possible, even under a different name. I always get the message that the image has previously been deleted. So what? Why can I not re-upload it if I change the permission to accommodate Commons policy? Aklein62 (talk) 06:46, 20 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Warning sign
This media may be deleted.
Thanks for uploading File:Swan Hennessy.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.

Sorry for the delay in responding, I was away for a few days. Frankly, I find these copyright and licensing affairs extremely complicated. I understand that the rights issue is very important, but I admit that, even after having clicked through your various linked information, I do not understand what I have to do.
For me, the case is extremely easy, namely: I have scanned the File:Swan Hennessy.jpg myself from the original paper photograph that dates from around 1923. I received this photograph last week while visiting personally the descendants of Swan Hennessy in France. Hennessy died in 1929, which clarifies one aspect of the copyright issue. Thus, if the person shown on the photograph is dead longer than 70 or 75 years and if the original photograph is in my possession, I have the right to scan and publish it here for everyone's free use on Wikimedia, no?
Furthermore, when uploading my scan, I thought I had "ticked all the boxes" necessary to upload it (it wouldn't have worked otherwise). Please excuse my lack of experience, but in my view I had given all the required information and even went beyond it by stating my opinion that the photograph is probably even ten years older than 1923 (having compared it to other photographs of Hennessy).
In short: Please do not delete this photograph! It does not involve any copyright infringement. Rather, please advise in simple terms what I shall do to dispel any doubts about it. Thank you. – Aklein62

  • This file is a copyright violation because it comes from: Uploader suggests that this image qualifies as CC-by-sa-4.0, but confirms that the source is a "press pack" from the RTÉ press centre where copyright is asserted as "© RTÉ 2018". A copyright claim which is incompatible with a Commons licence. The uploader also suggests that the author is "unknown", when the source website expressly states that images are "courtesy of Inpho.ie and Getty Images". With no evidence that either of these (commercial) rights-owners have given-up their commercial rights. Apart from the fact that it is highly dubious that a business like Inpho or Getty (both expressly in business to make money from copyrighted images) would release those rights, if the author truly is "unknown" how can we possibly be claiming that the author has released their rights.

Hi User talk:Guliolopez, sorry for this. I was sure the image was free of any copyright. I will take it down and try a different access. I didn't see the reference to inpho.ie and Getty Images, which seems a very general indication of a source, by the way, which cannot apply to this specific image (two sources for one photo?). – Aklein62 (talk) 10:41, 27 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Hello again, User talk:Guliolopez, I removed the image from the associated Wikipedia page, but it seems I cannot delete the image here on Wikimedia Commons. Feel free to delete it yourself, please, if you can, and I will try something else or get a different image. Thanks. – Aklein62 (talk) 10:52, 27 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Aklein62
  • RE: "Cannot delete". The image was deleted by an admin as copyvio.
  • RE: "sure the image was free of any copyright". Why? What in the source gave you that impression? Never mind a surety or certainty? When I looked at the source, I immediately saw a copyright notice and a listing of several possible copyright claimants? What did you see that suggested the opposite?
  • RE: Copyright and Commons licences in general. While we're talking about it, what is it that prompted you to apply a cc-by-sa-4.0 licence on the recent upload of File:Harry White, UCD.jpg? The source is suggested as the UCD.ie website. Specifically this page. But there's nothing on that webpage which suggests that the rights-holder has released the image to a Commons-compatible licence? And, the broader UCD.ie copyright page expressed a copyright policy which is otherwise incompatible with the Commons. What are you seeing (or aware of) that I and others are not?
Cheers. Guliolopez (talk) 20:43, 27 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Hi, User:Guliolopez, I was sure the image was free of copyright, because I was pretty sure it was made privately by a member of the objects's family. I checked on both Inpho and Getty Images websites, and neither of them has a photo of Ita Beausang. RTÉ's copyright claim is just a very general one, and does not pertain to this specific page (how could TWO photo agencies claim copyright to ONE image?). But to make absolutely sure, I contacted Ita Beausang today and received the image in question along with others from the same series. The photographer is her own son-in-law. I am aware I should have done this from the start, so I apologise. I will now upload the image as I received it today and will send the photographer the appropriate e-mail permissions template.
As for the Harry White picture, this is obviously a public relations photograph of UCD. Harry White told me so himself, and I think I have indicated this as such when I uploaded it. – Aklein62 (talk) 14:29, 29 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
