Hi Postdlf. I don't see this as "blatant" copyvio as your rationale was, plus the file is up and in use for longer than a year, in different wikis. Although this is no reason itself to keep the file, it could be an argument for that some people may find valid reasons within the deletion request to keep the file. I see it reasonable to spend another 7 days for a deletion discussion. --Krd09:28, 1 January 2015 (UTC)
All he did was process the photo (or at best, color directly over it), as they line up perfectly once you put them at the same scale--every contour, shadow, etc., so it's barely even a derivative rather than a mere copy. Though even had he drawn his copy freehand, it would still be a derivative of a copyrighted photo by copying the composition, lighting, etc., and thus a clear copyvio. Could you explain why you thought otherwise, and what these valid reasons might be for keeping a derivative of an unlicensed photo? Postdlf (talk) 15:04, 1 January 2015 (UTC)
Hi Postdlf. Somehow you are right, and there are even more reasons for deletion. I've delete the file now. Thank you, and sorry for having been blind. --Krd16:31, 1 January 2015 (UTC)
After a short look there is currently nothing to do, but I expect more to come. Please feel free to remind me in a few days. --Krd08:08, 3 January 2015 (UTC)
Thanks. Another little thing: Last night I stopped in at the help desk, and the first thing I see is an LTA sockmaster at work (Commons:Help_desk#Category). I don't know how successfull CU usually is with David Beals; he's likely on a mobile range or open proxy, but who knows... INeverCry17:38, 3 January 2015 (UTC)
I figured as much. Thanks for trying though. Using an image like File:The N game editor.png with a Youtube video link written on it linking to a ceiling fan video is just plain mental though isn't it? I had to laugh... INeverCry08:48, 5 January 2015 (UTC)
Hi you have deleted two of the images I uploaded today for the page journey to Le mans. They were deleted due to copyright violation. When uploading I tried to state, I had received permission from the owner in an email for the images to be free of copyright. I tried to reflect this on the upload.
Could you please undelete them, I will amend the fields required. I didn't want to send the email to Wikipedia direct, as the permission was buried within a bigger email of which contained data not wishing to be made public. Or can I upload them again? --Jimmy b 1984 (talk) 19:26, 5 January 2015 (UTC)
Dear Jimmy b 1984. The images are copyrighted material and not your own work, so we need permission from the creator or copyright holder as described in COM:OTRS. The copyright holder may also chose to publish them under a free license himself, e.g. at his website. --Krd19:34, 5 January 2015 (UTC)
Hi, in hewiki there is a category of pages with missing files. Many of those missing files were deleted from commons, but for some reason CommonsDelinker bot didn't remove them.
Geagea suggested that there may be some limitations of CommonsDelinker that is unable to handle files used in templates, and said you have a good solution for it, that is already works in dewiki and enwiki. Do you think it can work in hewiki too? If so, would you like to run it for a test run to edit 10 pages and request a bot flag, or if you prefer I can try to run it myself from wmflabs if I have the source code. thanks, Eran (talk) 23:54, 1 January 2015 (UTC)
Dear Eran. I'm currently rewriting some parts of the code to get it capable to run on more wikis. I'm happy to put hewiki on the list, too. Please give me some time to get the recoding done. I expect to have it running at least at at end of February. Thank you. --Krd05:36, 2 January 2015 (UTC)
Used only in a sandbox of a non-notable figure at pl.wikipedia; I'd consider deleting it, since the sandbox in question describes a non-notable person. Wojciech PędzichTalk20:31, 5 January 2015 (UTC)
Hi Wpedzich. The file should not be deleted for being out of scope when it is in use. If you are going to delete the sandbox, please go ahead. Thank you. --Krd15:58, 7 January 2015 (UTC)
The following three photos were deleted by you. It appears that whoever uploaded them before did not properly source them. Following the file links, I am including links to the website where the photos are released for public usage. The release is written in Chinese, but it says"anyone may print or circulate, but please provide attribution." Credit: Minghui.org
I am having trouble replacing the photos because they were previously deleted. I'm not sure how to overcome it. Can you help me get them replaced as I think they have historical importance.
Dear Joffers951. I cannot read Chinese so I cannot verify the license or undelete the images. Please place your request at COM:UNDEL. Thank you. --Krd17:34, 8 January 2015 (UTC)
Du hast am 30. Dezember eine Serie mehrerer Fotos von Werken des Bildhauers Wilhelm Meier gesichtet, jedoch bei der Freigabe Vorbehalte wegen unzureichender Info gemacht. Was fehlt oder ist unkorrekt?
Hallo. Der Einsender der Freigabe hat eine entsprechende Antwort per E-Mail erhalten. Sobald er sich wieder meldet sehen wir weiter. Gruß… --Krd17:35, 8 January 2015 (UTC)
Hallo Krd, kannst du mir bitte das eine Foto File:Eingang Limonistollen.jpg gegenchecken, ob es richtig beschriftet ist, denn ich halte die Vorlage CC BY-SA 3.0 etwas komisch, denn es ist in der ICH-Form geschrieben, dass sich doch auf den Hochladen bezieht. Veröffentlicht hat es jedoch der Fotograf unter dieser Lizenz - oder gibt es da eine andere ;-) --danke K@rl (talk) 08:13, 29 January 2015 (UTC)
Das hat sicch schon geklärt, denn beim Hochladen gibt es nur die self-Version (oder habe ich nur diese gefunden ;-) --ist schon geklärt. --danke K@rl (talk) 08:16, 29 January 2015 (UTC)

Hi Fry1989. As far as I read the deletion discussion, the 250kb not-really-svg file should not replace the existing svg file that is in use. If I am mistaken, please advise. Thank you. --Krd15:39, 6 February 2015 (UTC)
Hi Krd, danke fürs Wiederherstellen! Eine letzte Bitte in diesem Fall an dich: Bei der Abarbeitung meines UDR wurde der Spezialfall File:Sleepwalker.jpg übersehen. Die Datei wurde nach der Löschung von einem anderen User überschrieben und befindet sich erneut in der Löschdiskussion. Ist es dir möglich die frühere Datei von User:MikaV wiederherzustellen, vielleicht unter einem anderen Mamen? Damit wäre auch der allerletzte gelöschte Mika-Uploads wiederhergestellt. :-) --Martinatalk17:58, 19 February 2015 (UTC)
Ich hab das Bild wiederhergestellt, bitte verschieb es selbst auf einen geeigneten Namen, falls nötig. --Krd08:29, 20 February 2015 (UTC)
So far I know that many files aren't deleted because some of which have licenses explaining the use of the files just for illustrating about the topic, and copyright is held by the owner. 39.227.166.5718:13, 22 February 2015 (UTC)

Hi,This image File:Arvind Iyer.jpg was sourced from www.arvindiyer.com/Arvind_Iyer.jpg and the home page on this website has a Creative Commons release note.Can you help me ensure that it has the right tag.thank you (Chriswilkins (talk) 04:06, 5 March 2015 (UTC))
Hi Chriswilkins. This has already been done in the meantime. Thank you for the hint. --Krd08:32, 5 March 2015 (UTC)
Why you deleted this DR listing of a day that just started (today)? The DRs opened today are listed, but the links to the previous and next day are missing. --Amitie 10g (talk) 01:10, 10 March 2015 (UTC)
Hi Magog the Ogre. Thank you very much for the hint (!), but I already knew this and wanted to use the replace function in this case as the images have been in use. --Krd06:48, 2 March 2015 (UTC)
Hi, I check your deletion request.
I confirmed that original source of photo. Source is FC Seoul Online Service Website
http://www.fcseoulpics.com/
These photos are free. Anyone can download these files and upload any sites regarding FC Seoul.
In doing so, FC Seoul hope that more people are interested in FC Seoul.
This is why FC Seoul created Online Photo Servce Website
Don't worry, Rather, FC Seoul hope that many people use photos from FC Seoul Online Service
Hi Footwiks. Your conclusion is wrong. If an image if accessible on the internet that does not necessarily mean there is no copyright. Please provide any evidence that the copyright holder publishes them under any free license. Thank you. --Krd15:26, 12 March 2015 (UTC)
Hi Krd, Before uploading, I contacted FC Seoul media team to confirm copyright. I confirmed that FC Seoul-copyright holder publishes them under any free license. Rather, FC Seoul media team said to me "Thanks for using these photos for FC Seoul Player". If you don't belive me, Still you think you are right. Please Contact FC Seoul media team, 82-2-306-5050. This confirmation process is best. But if you are scared of calling,
What shoud I do? What type of evidence do you want? Please explain in detail about evidence.
One more question.
I have many FC Seoul player photos that I took. are these photos ok? If I upload photos done by me, Do I have to show you evidence?
Footwiks (talk) 23:54, 12 March 2015 (UTC)
Hallo Krd, bei der Datei ist ein SLA, wegen Lizenz - das müsste mit 1853 schon als PD old gelten - oder liege ich da falsch? --K@rl (talk) 10:25, 16 March 2015 (UTC)
Hallo Karl. Ich sehe keinen Hinweis darauf, dass 1853 hier überhaupt eine Jahreszahl ist. Meiner Meinung nach reicht das so nicht. --Krd11:27, 16 March 2015 (UTC)
Hallo Krd, beim Versuch eine Datei in diesen Namen umzubennenen ist mir das Bild abhanden bekommen, keine Ahnung, was da passiert ist. Kannst Du das heilen?
Die Bilder sind farblich daneben, aber ich habe keinen konkreten Verdacht, woran es wohl liegt. Und das mit den Kategorien kapiere ich auch nicht. --Krd06:53, 23 March 2015 (UTC)
Hi, yesterday I added to that RCU another suspected user which has not been checked yet, probably you have not noticed that. Regards, –Gpmat (talk) 08:53, 9 April 2015 (UTC)
Hi Krd, I noticed an OTRS ticket that you processed regarding an old family photo with an unknown photographer from a long time ago. An article that may be helpful to you in your endeavors is en:Pushman v. New York Graphic Society, Inc.. In the United States, if the sole physical embodiment of a copyrighted work was transferred prior to the passage of the Copyright Act of 1976, and there was no contract stating otherwise, then the copyright was transferred as well. So for old family photos, we need not concern ourselves with who took the photo a century ago - we only need to concern ourselves with who possessed the photo in 1976. --UserB (talk) 11:50, 9 April 2015 (UTC)
2014113010010546. I realize that the photo might not be suitable for use on Commons (if we were to consider Austria to be the home country and it is still copyrighted there by an unknown photographer ... although if it was never published until now, then wouldn't the US be the home country?). But if the only tangible embodiment of the copyrighted work (the photo) was in America prior to 1976 (which, according to the article, only one of his descendants escaped the Nazis and fled to the US in the 1940s), then that person owns the US copyright regardless of what unknown photographer took the picture. I have reached out to the original emailer to ask about the status. --UserB (talk) 15:12, 9 April 2015 (UTC)
As the file is deleted now, I cannot make a definite call, but I agree that you are possibly/likely right, and I appreciate if you go ahead with the ticket. Thank you! --Krd15:17, 9 April 2015 (UTC)
Thanks. I won't undelete it unless/until we hear back from the person affirming that they (or a person whose heir they are) were in possession of the photo in the US since 1976. --UserB (talk) 15:35, 9 April 2015 (UTC)
you deleted that file as copyvio based on [1] "Unless stated otherwise, the graphical resources uploaded to this site are NOT for commercial use." But why should that be relevant? The file was added to that site at the end of 2012, but it originally comes from Flickr, where it was uploaded four years before and is still available under a CC license compatible with Commons. It was uploaded to Commons in 2010 and kept in a DR (by me) in 2011.
Frankly, I'm a bit bewildered by your rationale to delete the file. Unless something else comes up that really warrants a deletion: Please restore the file. Thank you. --Rosenzweigτ15:32, 9 May 2015 (UTC)
Hi Rosenzweig. Thank for letting me know. You are 100% correct here and my deletion was nonsense, as was the deletion request. Sorry for not having checked thoroughly enough. --Krd15:43, 9 May 2015 (UTC)
Please see this user's page. You have a final warning; I found several more copyvios, and his entire recent group of uploads is also obviously copyvios as well. I thought you might like to finish the block since unfortunately the user is not paying attention. Cheers. Ellin Beltz (talk) 17:57, 15 May 2015 (UTC)
Hi Ellin. Sorry, I was offline for two days. Thank you for having taken care of it. --Krd09:07, 16 May 2015 (UTC)

Hi MichaelMaggs. Thank you for your attention. I would accept a nomination, although I would have to note that I'm already a checkuser at Commons and an OTRS admin, the latter of which might be in conflict with being a Commons crat once in a while. Although I of course would admit to abstain from any action in case of a conflict of interest, the community could have objections against creating such a role accumulation. I leave it up to you if it makes sense to nominate me. --Krd13:56, 25 May 2015 (UTC)
(talk page stalker) I would support you becoming a burocrat whilst continuing to hold other advanced permissions. I recall that this issue was raised last year and emerged in the steward elections this year. Personally I've changed my opinion and I firmly believe there is nothing wrong with holding several permissions because these are not elected offices, even if we expect burocrats to "lead" the community. The only place where I would oppose people holding more than one post is on the Wikimedia Board, which includes elected office-holders. I would also point out that English Wikipedia is a project of similar size and complexity, with 30+ burocrats, 40+ cheque-users and 50+ over-siters, some of whom are inactive but a number of them hold multiple permissions. I'm not suggesting similar numbers for Commons but it would be useful to have at least double digits for each group. Green Giant (talk)15:44, 25 May 2015 (UTC)
Removed Toffifee_Osterhase_2015_DSC_7937_PK.jpg; deleted by EugeneZelenko because: Derivative of non-free content: Commercial packaging
Was ist hier passiert? Es gibt doch so viele Bilder von Verpackungen aller Art. Dann müsste sowas: Chocolate_boxes auch alles gelöscht sein oder? Also das sieht richtig schräg aus.
Hallo Michael. Die Verpackung ist meiner Meinung nach eindeutig ein urheberrechtlich geschütztes Werk, darf also nur mit Freigabe durch den Rechteinhaber abgebildet werden, wie z.B. bei Gemälden auch. Siehe COM:PACKAGING.
Aus der genannten Kategorie muss natürlich nicht alles gelöscht werden, sondern nur das, was urheberrechtlich geschützt ist. Aber da ist leider wirklich einiges drin, was so nicht behaltbar ist. Gruß… --Krd15:37, 27 May 2015 (UTC)

Hallo Krd,
Du hattest uns meines Wissens nach schon einmal geholfen bei der Autorisierung von Stockburger Files. Ich habe mit Genehmigung von Frau Latz (geb. Stockburger, Tübingen, Tochter von G. A. Stockburger) einige *.jpg Files mit Bildern des Malers G.A. Stockburger nach Commons hochgeladen, die auch Frau Latz OTRS-authorisiert hat. In gleicher Weise möchte Sie folgende *.jpg Files authorisieren:
File:G A Stockburger 1961.jpg: (hierfür hat sie zwei mal an die permissions-mail-adresse geschrieben und bisher keine Rückmeldung erhalten)
File:Stockburger Liegende Mädchen.jpg: (diesen File habe ich heute Morgen mit Autorisierung von Frau Latz hochgeladen; sie wird gegenüber "permissions" ebenfalls Ihre Autorisierung geben)
File:Stockburger Sich Ergeben.jpg: (diesen File habe ich heute Morgen mit Autorisierung von Frau Latz hochgeladen; sie wird gegenüber "permissions" ebenfalls Ihre Autorisierung geben)
Frau Latz ist für alle drei Fälle der Rechteinhaber für die Originalwerke. Könntest Du uns bitte in dem Autorisierungsprozess unterstützen? Vielen Dank vorab und herzliche Grüße. --Nasobema lyricum (talk) 09:14, 6 June 2015 (UTC)
Hallo Nasobema lyricum. Wenn die Freigabe-E-mails verschickt wurden ist das beim Support-Team in guten Händen. Ich bin eherlich gesagt kein Freund davon, per Zuruf einzelne Vorgänge an der Warteschlange vorbeizuziehen. Falls es besondere Probleme gibt, melde Dich bitte gern wieder. Gruß… --Krd10:21, 6 June 2015 (UTC)
Hallo Krd! Kannst Du uns doch bitte jetzt helfen. Das Porträtfoto von G.A. Stockburger wurde einfach gelöscht. Frau Latz bemüht sich über permissions, die Authorisierung für dieses Bild zu erreichen. Irgendwie stimmt dieser permissions-Prozess bei Commons überhaupt nicht. Anbei die Mail von heute von Frau Latz an permissions.

Sehr geehrte Damen und Herren,
wie ich sehe, wird bei dem im Wikipedia-Artikel über meinen Vater Georg Alfred Stockburger weiterhin die fehlende Genehmigung des Urhebers bzw. Rechte-Inhabers moniert. Deshalb wiederhole ich noch einmal den Inhalt meiner Mail vom 30. 5.:
das Foto von Georg Alfred Stockburger im entsprechenden Wikipedia-Artikel wurde von meiner 1986 verstorbenen Mutter Lore Stockburger geb. Henke aufgenommen, die von Beruf Portraitfotografin war. Das Dia befindet sich in meinem Besitz und wurde in meinem Auftrag digitalisiert. Ich habe die Verwendung in Wikipedia autorisiert.
Bitte entfernen Sie das Bild nicht von der entsprechenden Seite.
Hallo, Benutzer:OTFW lässt gerade diverse Berliner Straßenkategorien nach nicht immer unbedingt astreinen Verschiebungen löschen, obwohl die Seiten noch verlinkt sind und entweder eine Weiterleitung auf die neue Kat oder eine BKL erfordern. Bitte führe solche Schnelllöschungen nicht einfach gedankenlos aus. Vielleicht kannst du bereits gelöschte noch einmal überprüfen, ich habe da jetzt nicht den Überblick. --Sitacuisses (talk) 06:18, 11 June 2015 (UTC)
I read your message to me. I'm just new user and just trying how to upload the picture. But, you want to block my account. Who are you? Are you the owner of Wikimedia? Huh?
I don't know how to look for copyright and licensing from internet, because the internet doesn't show about copyright and licensing.
Are there some manual about the wiki markup language? I tried to Google it but it doesn't works, I would like to learn more about it to help the community and start my own articles. Eliézer Fialho de Souza (talk) 09:35, 22 June 2015 (UTC)

Die Kategorie Wildlife overpasses in Germany ist meiner Meinung unpassend. Der Tunnel ist in "offener Bauweise" entstanden, ich habe aber keinen Hinwies gelesen - das dies im Sinne des Nnaturschutz gewesen sein soll. Gut, wenn man darüber nachdenkt - wundert es einem warum das Bauwerk wieder geschlossen wurde. --Atamari (talk) 22:44, 26 July 2015 (UTC)
Ich habe auch keinen Hinweis gefunden, dass das Ding explizit als Wildbrücke gedacht ist, allerdings wirkt es vermutlich nun als solche. Bin mir unsicher, aber von mir aus kann die Kategorie auch raus. --Krd07:56, 27 July 2015 (UTC)

Ich schlage vor: erst das Bild unbeschnitten hochzuladen evt. noch den Dunst zu entfernen. Dann erst Ausschnitte erstellen. Das ist auch besser für die Dokumente wenn man Derivate von Ursprungsbild erstellt und dieses ist als aktuelle Version noch vorhanden. Bei der Müllverbrennung zum Beispiel würde ich noch die ehem. Kaserne südlich der Landesstraße nehmen. Die ehem. Kaserne nördlich der L418 ist wahrscheinlich nicht mehr gut genug in der Auflösung. --Atamari (talk) 07:42, 28 July 2015 (UTC)

As you may know, the Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees approved a new "Access to nonpublic information policy" on 25 April 2014 after a community consultation. The former policy has remained in place until the new policy could be implemented. That implementation work is now being done, and we are beginning the transition to the new policy.
An important part of that transition is helping volunteers like you sign the required confidentiality agreement. All Wikimedia volunteers with access to nonpublic information are required to sign this new agreement, and we have prepared some documentation to help you do so.
The Wikimedia Foundation is requiring that anyone with access to nonpublic information sign the new confidentiality agreement by 15 December 2015 (OTRS users have until 22 December 2015) to retain their access. You are receiving this email because you have access to nonpublic information and are required to sign the confidentiality agreement under the new policy.
Signing the confidentiality agreement for nonpublic information is conducted and tracked using Legalpad on Phabricator. The general confidentiality agreement is now ready, and the OTRS agreement will be ready after 22 September 2015. We have prepared a guide on Meta-Wiki to help you create your Phabricator account and sign the new agreement: Confidentiality agreement for nonpublic information/How to sign
If you have any questions or experience any problems while signing the new agreement, please visit this talk page or email me (gvarnumwikimedia.org). Again, please sign this confidentiality agreement by 15 December 2015 (OTRS users have until 22 December 2015) to retain your access to nonpublic information. If you do not wish to retain this access, please let me know and we will forward your request to the appropriate individuals.
Thank you,
Gregory Varnum (User:GVarnum-WMF), Wikimedia Foundation
There is a serius conflict going on between two of our German speaking admins so I started a topic at AN/U. Could you please give a reply at the topic under this header? A solution has to been found. Thanks in advance.
Hallo. Ich wende mich mit folgendem Anliegen an Dich als Administrator mit der Bitte um Hilfe.
Als sich der o. g. User daran machte Regimentsseiten der preußischen Regimenter 1, 89 und 90 zu bearbeiten, Hatte ich mich guten willens daran gemacht etwas zu helfen. Militär ist ein Minenfeld und ich bin darin weiß Gott kein Experte, aber...
Unter anderem habe ich seine vergilbten Bilder gescharz-weisst. Dies hat er aber als beleidigenden Angriff empfunden so liess ich es letzten Endes.
Kommen wir zum eigentlichen Teil. Als ich es bei diesem Bilde tat, klärte er mich auf, dass ich dass als er meine Schritt revertierte sein lassen möge. Daran habe ich mich mE gehalten, jedoch habe ich, da ich dass gleiche Bild ein Jahr zuvor aus der Geschichte des 15. Regiments kannte, bei seiner Version das meinige Bild unter "other Version" eingefügt. Dies wurde von ihm permanent, da lt. seinen Kommentaren "nicht sinnvoll", gelöscht. Um der Wahrheit die Ehre zu geben, fühlte ich mch mit der Ergänzungim Recht und hätte es auf menen ersten Edit-War ankommen lassen.
Heute Morgen stellte ich fest, dass er stattdessen mein Bild zum Löschen eingetragen hat. Dies emfinde ich als ehrverletzend und wollte das in meinen Augen unangemssene Verhalten als Vandalismus melden. Nun bin ich auf jenem Gebiet unerfahren und tat es hier. Ich habe seinem Antrag widersprochen und er hat soeben geantwortet. Ich habe dazu keine Nerven und wende mich an dich als Administrator:
Bitte kläre mich auf, warum mein handeln verkehrt ist und äußere Dich außerdem zu seinem Löschantrag.
Hallo 1970gemini. Wenn Du mich direkt fragst, bin ich persönlich auch der Meinung, dass die originalen Bilder deutlich besser aussehen und für die Artikel besser geeignet sind. Das allein ist nicht zwangsläufig ein Grund für eine Löschung, jedoch sehe ich ehrlich gesagt nicht wirklich, für welche Situation die sw-Bilder besser verwendbar wären. Leider kann ich Dir also in dieser Sache nicht wirklich weiterhelfen. Gruß… --Krd17:20, 30 September 2015 (UTC)
Hey, I would kike to know why you removed this image although the permission letter had been sent to the OTRS and I had prosecuted the process before? There were no legal issue regarding this photo and I made direct contact with the author and he sent the letter, just the same as this photo. Mhhossein (talk) 04:30, 5 October 2015 (UTC)
Hello Mhhossein. I don't see where I did any action with the named images. Please provide more detail. Thank you. --Krd05:41, 5 October 2015 (UTC)
Unfortunately, the ticket number is only shown when the permission form is verified by the volunteers. I only know that the author sent two permission letters for two of his photos one of which is deleted now by you. Mhhossein (talk) 04:13, 6 October 2015 (UTC)
I cannot find a ticket regarding this file in OTRS. Can the permission sender send it again? Thank you. --Krd05:23, 6 October 2015 (UTC)

Hi, Thank you for your answer. I’ll re ask to the photograph for an OTRS permission. (I’m the uploader of the file and i’ve asked to the photograph, but she had probably forgot to sent you the authorization). Good evening. --Lev. Anthony (talk) 19:18, 21 October 2015 (UTC)
Hello Tuvalkin. I don't think so, but of course you a welcome to ask another admin to override my decision, if it turns out wrong, see COM:UNDEL. Thank you. --Krd17:13, 22 October 2015 (UTC)
Thanks, Storkk. I assure you, I'm not upset by Krd's actions surrounding that deletion. I don't have any vested interest in sharing Hasbro Inchworm images on Wikimedia projects. I was earnestly interested in trying to understand the differences between what is and is not allowed under free licensing and/or public domain. The links you provided are those sorts of "wall of text" explanations that are sometimes difficult for me to comprehend. Do you know if there is a simple answer to why "no" to Inchworm, but "yes" to wine bottle or automobile? Edit - Ah, I get it now... the "utilitarian" aspect. - Thekohser (talk) 17:31, 27 October 2015 (UTC)
You have to admit, though, having an instructional headline say "Toys are not art!", then going on to describe how they are art, is confusing to the reader. -- Thekohser (talk) 17:48, 27 October 2015 (UTC)
vor einigen Tagen hattest Du oben genanntes Bild gelöscht. Dies hatte ich auf Wunsch von Herrn Ruprecht von Mangoldt hochgeladen und in die Liste "Club Aachener Casino" eingebaut, wie es mit allen dortigen Porträtaufnahmen zuvor auch geschehen war. Herr v. Mangoldt hatte eine Freigabe über mich eingereicht, die ich an ORTS weitergeleitet habe (Mails liegen mir noch vor). Dennoch wurde dieses Bild nun gelöscht. Ich möchte verstehen warum, da ich mit den Regeln bei Commons nicht so sattelfest bin und weil ich mich mit Herrn v. Mangoldt absprechen möchte, ob wir da etwas anderes liefern sollen (auch ihm möchte ich es ja erklären können, was der Grund dafür ist)? Im voraus vielen Dank für eine kurze Stellungnahme, Beste Grüße, --ArthurMcGill (talk) 08:39, 28 October 2015 (UTC)
Hallo ArthurMcGill. Wenn eine Freigabe an OTRS gesendet wurde, wird es dort entsprechende Rückfragen per E-Mail geben oder das Bild nach Erfolgreicher Freigabe wiederhergestellt. Das kann allerdings einige Tage dauern. Gruß… --Krd15:18, 30 October 2015 (UTC)
Hallo Krd, danke für die erste Antwort, doch mit den "einigen Tagen" komme ich noch nicht ganz klar, das Mail mit der Freigabeerklärung habe ich am 24. September an permission weitergeleitet, die dieses auch per automatischer Atnwort bestätigt haben. Das sind also mehr als vier Wochen. Was räts Du zu tun - weiter abwarten oder mich an jemandem Bestimmten wenden? Gruß, --ArthurMcGill (talk) 15:45, 30 October 2015 (UTC)
Der Einsender der Freigabe hat bereits am 24. September die Antwort erhalten, dass der E-mail-Anhang nicht lesbar ist. Kannst Du in die Wege leiten, dass er das in einem anderen Format, z.B. als nur-Text, erneut sendet? --Krd08:24, 31 October 2015 (UTC)
auch dies war geschehen, Herr. v. Mangoldt hatte ursprünglich die Freigabe per Anhang beigefügt und dem Supportteam geschickt, mich dabei cc gesetzt. Nachdem Support mitgeteilt hatte, dass der Anhang nicht lesbar sei, habe ich meine cc-Mitteilung per Mailtext ohne Anhang dem Supportteam geschickt, was anschließend auch mit Zuzeilung der Ticketnummer bestätigt worden ist. Ich verstehe das Problem nicht, alle Mails liegen mir noch vor. Gruß, --ArthurMcGill (talk) 09:03, 31 October 2015 (UTC)
...und trotzdem gibt es noch Rückfragen dazu, die uns nur der Rechteinhaber beantworten kann, daher wäre es hilfreich, wenn der Einsender der Freigabe per E-Mail mit uns reden würde. Ist das machbar? --Krd12:26, 31 October 2015 (UTC)
machbar ist alles, aber da es Sinn macht, nicht über Dreieck (also über mich) zu kommunizieren, hier die Mailadresse des Rechteinhabers (die ja permission vorliegt: Ruprecht von Mangoldt [rvmangoldt@web.de]), dann kann ja einer von Euch die noch ausstehenden Fragen direkt mit ihm klären. Gruß, --ArthurMcGill (talk) 12:34, 31 October 2015 (UTC)
Hello Krd, ok, you certainly are right, one of my faults is to be impulsive, now that I am an administrator I have to take a step back and understand a little more calmly this kind of situation. This will be done in the future. Thank you to properly do your job and good day. :) --Christian Ferrer (talk) 17:21, 6 November 2015 (UTC)
Hallo Karl. Das zweite Bild ist ok, für das erste sollte ein anderes hochgeladen werden, das es wirklich von der Qualität nicht passt. --Krd08:25, 11 November 2015 (UTC)
Somehow [2] is linked from an archive page [3] rather than the regular page - it looks like you initially closed a discussion but many people got at it since. I think there's not much to be lost by deleting this one. Wnt (talk) 20:56, 7 November 2015 (UTC)
Servus, etwas älter aber mit gerade über den Weg gelaufen: Gibt es da eine Freigabe? Du hattest seinerzeit die Lizenz und den Urheber ergänzt... Gute Grüße diba (talk) 22:17, 11 November 2015 (UTC)
Hi Krd, I wanted to ask an advice first, before asking for a Bot flag.
Often I categorise a huge amount of files, typically from Category:XXXX_books (where XXXX is a year).
When I do so, using the Cat-a-lot tool, I flood the RC with my edits, which can be seen basically as maintenance.
I was wondering if requesting a bot flag, to be activated when I do this kind of activity, shouldn't be better?
It is common to give such a flag to an user on Commons? Cheers, Ruthven(msg)13:32, 16 December 2015 (UTC)
Hi Ruthven. Thank you for your question, but I'd prefer to discuss this in a bot flag request so that we can gather input from multiple sources. Personally I'd say No at first view, but I'm not sure what other people think about it. --Krd13:36, 16 December 2015 (UTC)
Hey, I used to do a copyright from the website providers but I was giving the proper source and proper author. I am confused about licensing so there you can help me. But the wikimedia images is perfectly original and fine to use from the well known licensed websites.

Hi, you've delete File:Gavrilov(1).jpg I put the description, that pr-manager of owner of picture has let me use it for wikipedia. But you just gave the link with google results.. So what!? Yes, that picture from the website kubanenergo.ru How we can use pictures in this case? You need some papers or what?
I have to note that you all were inconsiderate to delations of two pictures File:KF-2.jpg & File:KF5.jpg because these pics were allowed for me to upload into Wikimedia commons by itself National Theatre of Szeged. How can I prove my truth? They have given their permission via a message.Borgatya (talk) 13:27, 30 December 2015 (UTC)
Hi! You deleted the image "Taylor Swift - Most sold out performance". Well. I found it on Flickr. I believe this image is free to share. User:Ww2censor said that "This has no metadata and neither tineye nor Google images finds a source". Although Flickr User has already uploaded several copyright violations of mostly Getty images, but this image doesn't appear on Getty Image so maybe the owner on Flickr joined the concert in LA or he/she used to visit Staples Center. Please restore it.Phamthuathienvan (talk) 18:55, 27 December 2015 (UTC)
