Template:Original caption serves exactly the same purpose, and has more translations. It allows for more parameters and options. This template is hence redundant and unnecessary. No reason to put a box around as well. —Matrix(!) {user - talk? - contributions} 18:58, 12 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Matrix: The templates seem to do different things, the nominated shows text prior to that version. I am not advocating for the template though would expect to see more evidence of no harm from deletion, and that a redirect of the template would not be misrepresenting the intent of use.  — billinghurst sDrewth 08:25, 9 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Billinghurst: Well, in the scenario an original caption was taken from an image and placed into the description, obviously it would have been removed from the image beforehand. Stating "this was the original caption" and "this was the removed caption" is in essence the same thing, since you're obviously not going to duplicate the caption in both the image and the file description, you'd put it in one place or another (most likely the file description). —Matrix(!) {user - talk? - uselesscontributions} 15:39, 9 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

This file was initially tagged by C.Suthorn as Copyvio (copyvio) and the most recent rationale was: All the uploads by the account are either COPYVIOs or PD because the copyright expired in Egypt in a time, when egyptian copyright was low. All the files have a very small resolution and poor EXIF data. The logo should be a SVG or at least PNG. The files are claimed own work, while this is impossible for most of them as the depicted people died decades ago. the given time in the info template is wrong.The five images of Gamal Abdel Naser that are not included in this DR can probably also deleted for low quality, better existing images at commons and having been uploaded by an otherwise COPYVIO only account.

     Delete. Per COM:Egypt, the copyright is maintained 50 years pma. This image is made in 1943, so it is not sure the photographer has died more then 50 years ago. I propose to undelete in 2044. The photographer will be higly likely deceased more then 50 years by then. No evidence of anonymous publishing. Ellywa (talk) 21:26, 23 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Regardless of the opinion of the user "killarnee" with regards to the existence or not "Bindingsteuer", the changes to "§ 20 Abs. 6" in December 2019 and Deember 2020 are history.
The article "Bindingsteuer" has Number 1: not been deleted but moved. Number 2: the discussion was about "political inclination" and "relevance of the term Bindingsteuer" and not its existence.

Font seems simple, though has an element of proportionality thrown through to wrap around a simple image though again with an element of design. The declaration of the license is fictional.

@Rosenzweig: @Gnom: for their perspectives on German law. Abzeronow (talk) 21:27, 19 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I guess this is covered by German fop, because it is both public (if this is a public street or path, which it seems to be) and permanent (per de:Panoramafreiheit#Kriterium „bleibend“, which explicitly mentions that many legal commentaries consider graffiti to be permanent). I'm not so sure if this is lawful though (in both Germany and the US) because it's a copyrighted character. We do have several other photographs like this though (File:Hilden, Dorotheen Park Lucky Luke.JPG is one I could find after a quick search). --Rosenzweig τ 21:56, 19 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
 Delete, per COM:PCP. Peter takes up too much space on the photo to be COM:De Minimis. Grandmaster Huon (talk) 02:54, 20 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It is my understanding that FOP requires that the artwork in question was originally placed with the rightsholder's authorisation, which is not the case here. Pinging @Gestumblindi. Gnom (talk) 07:51, 20 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

 Weak delete As I was pinged by Gnom: I share Gnom's understanding. I think that original graffiti in Germany should be considered permanent and therefore fine, per Rosenzweig, but graffiti depiciting pre-existing copyrighted artwork or characters are a different matter. If these would fall under FoP, we could "liberate" any artwork, any copyrighted character, just by painting them - without the copyright owner's permission - on a wall and then claiming FoP. This can't be the law's intention. I would differentiate, though. For example, File:Tintin-Wandgemaelde in Bruessel.jpg is a meticulously painted mural in a prominent location in Brussels, Belgium, showing a scene from a Tintin comic. It is part of the official en:Brussels' Comic Book Route and therefore we can assume that it was made with the right owner's permission (and Belgium has now FoP, too). Such murals should be fine. On the other hand, we also can almost certainly assume that the graffito in question here was not made with the right owner's knowledge and permission. Why do I then only vote "weak delete"? Because, as also pointed out by Rosenzweig, we seem to have a quite liberal practice when it comes to this question. There will be borderline cases where a permission by the rights holder would seem possible, but not certain. Gestumblindi (talk) 20:49, 21 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Keep. Freedom of panorama rests on the notion that certain artwork types may have allowable 2-D derivative works made if they are in a public place. It protects the photographer from infringement when capturing a panorama of these public artworks. It shouldn't matter if the creator of the public work has infringed themselves on an earlier work. IronGargoyle (talk) 02:55, 23 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    @IronGargoyle: Your assumption basically destroys copyright - if it were true, as I wrote above, I just could paint the copyrighted artwork of my choice on a wall in public space and suddenly it's free for anyone to photograph and reproduce. That surely can't be right? Gestumblindi (talk) 11:06, 23 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It does not destroy copyright. That is a silly and hyperbolic statement. The original graffiti artist is still committing a copyright violation. FoP laws where photographers are able to reproduce 2D graphical art in public are relatively rare (and probably problematic for the reasons you give), but that does not make the laws less valid, nor their attempt to protect photographers in a more extreme manner. The derivative work is a derivative work no matter the source. IronGargoyle (talk) 14:12, 23 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Per de:Panoramafreiheit#Rechtfertigung, the official rationale for freedom of panorama in Germany says something like that erecting a work of art at public places expresses the intent to dedicate that work to the general public. And Germany's highest court, the Bundesgerichtshof (Federal Court of Justice), added that authors consenting to such a placement of their works also agree to dedicating their work to the general public, at least to a certain degree. Some legal commentators argue that some works of art may be placed in public solely at the initiative of the owner without the consent of the author, and therefore fop should be based on the interests of the general public. They all though seem to base their arguments mainly on legitimately produced statues etc. which exist in single copies, so those arguments probably don't quite fit for graffiti. --Rosenzweig τ

Überholte Version Foxy5 (talk) 22:42, 19 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

("Überholte Version" → "Overhauled version") Do you mean Karte Schweinfurter Becken 2.png with 'overhauled version'? WikiMichi (talk) 21:57, 20 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@WikiMichi: No. Karte Schweinfurter Becken 2.png is the better version. I mean this File:Karte Schweinfurter Becken.png with Overhauled version. Foxxy199 (Foxy5) (talk) 11:13, 31 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
 Keep: I don't think that "Schweinfurt Becken 2" is an outdated version. For me, this map has a different context. The first version IMHO represents more the topography, lacking the urban area. In my opinion, this is too distracting in a more topographical context. In an encyclopedic context, on the other hand, the urban area fits in better, simply as a reference to the "real world", to make it easier to imagine the dimensions.
So it is a keep for me. There are many, many "unused" files on Commons, which are not used in Wikimedian projects like Wikipedia. However, one never knows when another editor is going to need a different map, let alone non-editors just downloading (or using the file via API). It's not like the storage space is sacre. ;-) --WikiMichi (talk) 21:32, 13 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

 Comment Having multiple versions of files is perfectly reasonable, they just need to be suitably described/commented/explained what the file may be, and how it differs from other versions.

I agree--Oursana (talk) 17:07, 25 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
A sortable table is something formidable. The problem with the categories are the subcategorizing, so that you often have to guess and search for your object clicking and clicking... With a table you can sort with the data you have, and you have all the objects on one page, even the pictures, so can search just by scrolling through.
If the table wasn't so stupid, sorry, underdeveloped, with its ocean of red links, columns like location (100% Gemäldegalerie, I guess) and unnerving entries that begin with "painting of"; either it is already defined for the table (paintings in the...) or you have to have another columns for medium. Another obvious problem are the urls, thrown in as they are, long as the Amazon... The automation too should be smarter than this.
For the last months I have visited several of these tables on Commons, and it is never a pleasant view. If someone would be keen to make something worthwhile out of it, you like and want to work with, one could even link both to each other, so they may complement themselves. Otherwise it stays more of a half-backed data dump, noone will use.

This is obviously not a still from a video, and the still cannot be found from the link Victorgrigas (talk) 16:49, 21 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Videos can have sharp resolutions. It was a video listed on White House and State Department .gov sites. They probably had high quality equipment to take videos at the UN.
Here are .gov pages and archives with videos of the event:
https://georgewbush-whitehouse.archives.gov/news/releases/2003/02/20030205-1.html

https://2001-2009.state.gov/secretary/former/powell/remarks/2003/17300.htm
They all list videos. Though I can't download them now.
I think it is safe to assume that the video showed Colin Powell holding the vial.
Then the question is whether it was this specific image.
One could assume that the video stayed up for years probably. No one on the Commons during those years said that the video did not show this image.
I say assume good faith of the original uploader and keep the image. Who is gonna complain? And how can anybody prove that this specific image did not come from this video?

Uploader says According to the source [...] the image is in the public domain. If however the source is incorrectly stating so, then instead the use is fairuse for the article Horace Mann Bond. It is fair use because the subject is dead and the photo is too small and of too low resolution to be commercially valuable. on the file page. Checking the source at https://www.blackpast.org/african-american-history/bond-horace-mann-1904-1972/ today, it now claims the image to be fair use rather than public domain. If this image is not in the public domain, Commons cannot host it, Commons does not host COM:FAIRUSE images. Belbury (talk) 17:55, 21 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This file was initially tagged by Belbury as Fair use (fair use). It's in use, and possibly public domain by formalities. Converted to DR for discussion. @Infrogmation: Abzeronow (talk) 18:13, 21 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Comment I originally uploaded this to en:w as fair use (trademark character), with my photo of it free licensed. Someone else copied it to Commons in 2012. I have not researched the "Speedee" character - per en:w:McDonald's#History the company stopped using the character in the early 1960s, so may be out of copyright in source country (US), but that cannot be assumed without research should anyone care to do so. If cannot be shown to be out of copyright, should be deleted. Apparently no longer used in en:w, so no reason to copy it back there. -- Infrogmation of New Orleans (talk) 18:59, 21 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

These files are all company logos found on Google. Most of them are duplicates of existing logos, have the wrong licence, are uncategorised, may have TOO problems etc. It would be more time than it's worth sorting through them. Most aren't eligible for speedy deletion as well.

  •  Comment. Some of these should be deleted, but I don't agree with this broad approach. I did a quick scan through the first five images on the list. Of these, three did not duplicate existing logos. While there may certainly be COM:TOO issues (though not in the first five), these need to be approached more carefully as they are all notable companies. IronGargoyle (talk) 13:49, 28 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    @IronGargoyle: All of these logos are inferior duplicates of existing logos, have little useful descriptions or categorisation, and have the wrong licence. It would be more effort that it's worth to manually sort through these logos when we already have most of them under a different name. —Matrix(!) {user - talk? - contributions} 19:12, 30 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Not all of them are inferior to existing logos. I haven't had time to go through all of these, but just in the first five, I can't find an exact match for File:Fanatics.jpg, File:Expedia.png, or File:Carlsberg.png. So it's not true that these are all inferior duplicates (unless something is really missing that I didn't see). Poor categorization or missing descriptions are not good reasons for deletion, particularly when it is so self-evident what categories these should belong to. These are major companies for the most part and have categories and descriptions which can be easily added. There is no problem with taking our time on fixing these if they aren't copyright violations. IronGargoyle (talk) 19:40, 30 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
 Delete per nom. Now, I haven't looked at every logo nominated here individually, but yes, it seems that most of the logos are low quality duplicates with nonsense licences.
Sometimes, it is just better to respond to mass uploads with mass deletions - especially the "logo" category, we have already 120,000 Unidentified logos which need all kinds of checks - dumping even more files into commons which need especially significant amounts of cleanup work isn't helpful whatsoever. TheImaCow (talk) 17:41, 16 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Keep most per my individual votes on the files above. I'm going to reiterate my comment above and express my disagreement with how this deletion request was created (as well as with TheImaCow's deletion vote above). Care was clearly not taken in the nomination as a majority of these files are explicitly not duplicates and it took very little checking to find this out. As there are almost no copyright violations here (most are below the threshold of originality in their jurisdictions) and the logos are clearly from high-profile, in-scope companies, I think it's unfortunate that we would default to delete because we can't be bothered to check a few categories. I get that the cleanup job is large, but I suspect most of those 120,000 unidentified logos are from non-notable companies. That these ended up in Category:Unidentified logos is just poor categorization. We don't delete files for being poorly categorized. We recategorize them.

Re-nominate. I do not agree that this is just an ordinary structural work, but it is a well-designed stadium. English Wikipedia claims the author is Potiropoulos D+L architects S.A.. As this is designed by a Greek architectural firm, it is impossible that its creativity is just similar to ferris wheels, dams, or viaduct/overpasses.

 Weak keep for the same reasons I originally gave. I do not believe this building rises to the threshold such that it is copyrightable. I'm looking at an overhang and some seats, not a piece of artwork or creativity. Magog the Ogre (talk) (contribs) 13:59, 23 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Magog the Ogre don't belittle minimalist or simple buildings like this. Per the arena's information on the architecture firm's website, it won the bronze award in the 2022 edition of the A’ Design Award and Competition. The roof is well-designed so that it functions as a floodlit object during the night. IMO arenas like these do not get treated as public domain objects, and images of these well-designed and awarded buildings should not be commercially-licensed (unless Greece changes their copyright laws). JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 18:44, 23 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It doesn't matter if the objects are in a church if they don't show a meaningful portion of the church architecture.

I'm not disagreeing with the idea what you can copyright the architectural interior of a church. I'm saying that an organ is a musical instrument and a utilitarian object. It is not part of the protected architecture. Also, a simple white wall and doorway is non-infringing. It is a de minimis portion of the larger work.

 Keep Reasoning that way, argumenting miniature buildings are no buildings, thus not covered by danish freedom of panorama, will result in the end in a situation, that only photos released by the official press department of Billund Legoland will remain in Wikipedia, as this, this or this - and I don't see Wikipedia and Wikimedia Commons as an executive branch of the official press department of Billund Legoland©... Further more, the fact that even the official press department of Billund Legoland indirectly contributes photos to Wikimedia Commons can be seen as a sign to the support for Commons by the administration of Billund Legoland. So the fear of being threatened by Billund Legoland is just an irrational fear: there is no hint of Billund Legoland fighting against Wikimedia Commons, but a clear hint that Billund Legoland has an interest of seeing photos of its park here.

His awards are completely irrelevant. Don't use them to obfuscate the issue. I highly doubt the architect was selecting which particular stone slab goes where. That's what builders and stonemasons do. I searched numerous reviews of the structure and could find no support for this claim. IronGargoyle (talk) 02:27, 28 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I am really interested to see your "reviews", could you link to them? The stone is mentioned in the English wikipedia article rather prominently since years. The first google hit I opened gave me this basic architectural review that mentions the stone and how this stone influenced the structure of the building. The building is meant to imitate a quarry which is also mentioned in the Wikipedia article. Here a review in German, in which the stone patterns are explained a bit more in detail (from p.739 onwards). Three layers with a different amount of millimeters result in slab of 15cm... But now the 3 layers don't go in the same order every time, they are laid one upon another in six different orders. And then those 15cm slabs have their own order again. Ever seen such a wall somewhere else? There is much more on the stone slabs in the article. Here another architectural review (in English) that has a lot about the stone. Here is another one (in German) that focuses on the stone and its changing color depending on the light that reflects on the stone and how Peter Zumthor decides (with his design) how much light gets to the stone...

@Speravir Well, there is a link to the authorization through the Template:Monumento italiano, although maybe it could be more visible. I agree that it would be better to have these authorizations in the VRT database, but that is something that should be discussed with the people from WMI who organize the contest (the issue was most recently discussed here by @Ruthven and @Paolo Casagrande (WMIT)). Friniate (talk) 09:30, 24 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Omnis Scientia, as Magog said, please read COM:FOP US. That will most likely answer your questions.

    @IronGargoyle I think the renovations are sufficient enough to have altered architecture. An old image sourced from the city website (now hosted here as File:Dipolog Cathedral undated.jpg) apparenty shows a radically-different entrance. Combined with the noted bell tower that dates to the 1970s, it is reasonable to assume that the cathedral's architecture is no longer the Spanish-era architecture and is under architectural copyright (if anonymous, then 50 years from publication or completion).

 Delete The organ was built in 1970. In my opinion organs are also copyrightable. I doubt you will find serially fabricated organs in churches and usually each one is an original and designed for the church. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Paradise Chronicle (talk • contribs) I added that comment before the reply by IronGargoyleParadise Chronicle (talk) 17:30, 17 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It is a utilitarian object (see COM:UA). The various qualities of the pipes, housing, and sound apertures are all designed to produce a particular quality of sound. There may be ornamentation, but we would have to delete hundreds of images of violins, guitars, pianos, and other instruments if no ornamentation was allowed to be reproduced on these utilitarian objects. The ornamentation here is not separatable from the sound-producing parts of the work (in the same way the sound holes on a violin might be creatively shaped but are not separatable because they are a functional part of producing sound). I should add that the threshold of originality for works of applied art (of which this would be one) is higher in Germany than in the US. IronGargoyle (talk) 17:07, 17 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
COM:TOO Germany says that what is utilitarian can not be copyrightable.  Keep File:Frankfurt (Main), Kirche Cantate Domino (10).jpg, File:Frankfurt (Main), Kirche Cantate Domino (03).jpg, File:Frankfurt (Main), Kirche Cantate Domino (04).jpg, delete the rest. @IronGargoyle is correct, threshold is higher in Germany, but (copy paste from here (p5. paragraph 2)) "copyright protection is only granted if in circles familiar with art the design could be considered as “artistic”. The organ is under protection by the state (Denkmalschutz) and has won an award in 1962. It is (according to this source) also an internationally distinguished organ.

 Keep, doesn't seem more elaborate than the Seafood Cup Noodles logo example as described in COM:TOO Japan. I think the Tokyo High Court statement regarding that logo also applies to this one: «although the shape is stylized, the text is in a normal arrangement and keeps its function of being read as a sequence of letters», as in the Xenoblade 3 logo, all elements are letters. The other listed court sentence could also apply here: «Copyright protection of fonts is limited only to those that raise artistic appreciation as much as artistic works do». I don't think simple artistic lettering is therefore ever considered above TOO in Japan. The shapes inside the 3 are polygonal, and just like in this example also listed in COM:TOO Japan, not subject to copyright protection. Nacaru (talk) 11:48, 25 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

No acceptable Freedom of Panorama in Syria. FoP in Syria is only valid for free uses of their public landmarks by broadcasters and not photographers or Internet/website developers. The only online mentions on this building claim that it is a modernist work, but no mention of when was it built/completed and who was/were the architect/s. I asked this matter on COM:VPC but got no response. COM:Project scope/Precautionary principle rolls in.

JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 06:51, 25 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]


Hi,
I am somewhat non-plussed that someone seeks the deletion of the pictures who on the user page has “This user highly supports the introduction of w:freedom of panorama to the remaining "no FOP countries" — at least for works of architecture and 3D works like monuments in both exteriors and publicly-accessible premises!” If I were of that opinion I would let sleeping dogs lie. But maybe you want to test the case and expect me and others to come up with arguments to NOT delete them.
Luckily the whole terrain seems to have been destructed through war. As is so much of Homs that I would not recognize the town.
But in answer to your line of reasoning: I think “broadcasting” in the text you refer to should be interpreted in the more general sense of “to spread information to a lot of people:” I checked the text on the wiki-pages and did not find your text “FoP in Syria is only valid for free uses of their public landmarks by broadcasters and not photographers or Internet/website developers.” No reference is made to “photographers or Internet/website developers”. I instead find “not Internet media repositories that mandate commercial licensing” and I do not think Commons is such a place.
I tried to find the Legislative Decree No. 62/2013, but only found an article: The Syrian Law on the Protection of Copyright and Neighbouring Rights of 2013 By Sadeek Hasna. Its final lines are “The current situation in Syria makes the proper application of this law extremely difficult, if not
totally impossible. Furthermore, there are cultural and practical challenges that face the proper
protection of copyright law on the ground. However, introducing a new law that reflects the
reality of the digital work is a positive step towards creating a law more likely to be respected.”
My pictures are from 2008, when the current (?) decree was not yet in existence.
But not being a specialist in Syrian law I wrote a mail to the Sadeek Hasna. Dosseman (talk) 09:57, 25 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Dosseman to address your points:
  • Yes, I am supportive of FoP moves, yet I do not see any indication of a copyright law reform or update being pushed through in the legislature of Syria; more so, I do not see any attempt by Wikimedians based in the Middle East urging the Syrian legislature to bring their FoP in line with the Internet age. If there are no attempts or measures by both Syrian legislature and Wikimedians in the Middle East to improve Syrian FoP law, it is reasonable to remove all modern monuments and architecture of Syria from this repository site. Several other images of other copyrighted public landmarks of that country have been deleted from the site (see Category:Syrian FOP cases/deleted), so do not single out my deletion requests targeting copyrighted landmarks of that country.
  • No, commercial use should be required in all FoP laws. Per COM:Licensing#Acceptable licenses, images here should be licensed commercially to fulfill Wikimedia Commons' mission of providing free-to-use files that anyone can exploit, even without permissions from architects, sculptors, muralists, or their heirs. Syrian FoP is simply incompatible for Wikimedia Commons' licensing rules, so modern monuments and buildings of that country are not welcome here. Not allowing commercial reuse does not conform to the Definition of Free Cultural Works, which Wikimedia Commons strictly upholds.
  • "The current situation in Syria makes the proper application of this law extremely difficult, if not totally impossible." - it is not acceptable as per COM:Project scope/Precautionary principle. It is just like "because there is a conflict in Syria, the architect or his grandchildren won't find out that Wikimedia Commons users commercially-hosted his Homs artwork." Per COM:CARES, the copyright holder must be respected first.
JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 11:44, 25 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I'll add a fourth point regarding your question on time of your photography and the prevailing FoP rule. The 2013 copyright law repeals the 2001 copyright law. According to the English copy of the 2001 law at WIPO Lex database, images of works of architecture and monuments can be presented to the general public on television and films, but those should not be the main topic (de minimis). Per Article 37(Fourth): "Reproduction of artistic, plastic or architectural work to show such to the public through cinema or television, if such works are permanently displayed to the public, their role in the program is secondary or extrinsic compared to the main topic." So even the former 2001 law has an incompatible FoP clause that Wikimedia Commons cannot benefit. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 12:03, 25 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Digital images didn't exist in 1952, so the EXIF data doesn't mean anything. It is only the date when the original picture was photographed with a digital camera. But yes, if it is more recent than 1953, it is not in the public domain in Morocco. IMO this is moot as it is also not in the public domain in USA. Yann (talk) 13:52, 25 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Yann: I know, but the problem is a blog is not a sufficient source to prove that file is from 1952. For example, I have already seen a black and white photo claimed to be from 1962 but it have been taken in 2010. Panam2014 (talk) 14:13, 25 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
And the EXIF claim the file have been scanned in 2013 but the article from the blog is from 2023. Panam2014 (talk) 14:16, 25 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The blog mentions that the images are from clichés of Bernard Rouget, a French photographer who passed away in 1988. In French law, there is a provision that works can enter the public domain 70 years after the death of the creator.
@Yann is someone more knowledgeable about French laws, he can provide further details.
Regarding the EXIF data, as I mentioned earlier, I am not referring to the digital metadata since EXIF data did not exist during that time. Instead, I am emphasizing that the image is a scan, likely from a physical source. The practice of scanning images from various sources and uploading them without clear information or evidence is indeed common here when dealing with old traditional clothes in North Africa.

Dronebogus (talk) 13:17, 26 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Dronebogus I couldn't clearly understand what you mean. But if you mean that those files might have "orgasm" related contents, which might be "unsafe" for Wikimedia projects, then there's actually a misunderstanding. It was my mistake to put those files in the category:orgasms. Actually, the very ancient text "Panthoibi Khonggul" has the description of Lady Panthoibi & Lord Nongpok Ningthou secretly meeting in the riverside, multiple times, before they finally get eloped. This was clearly explained in the description as well. Besides, the English wikipedia article "Panthoibi Khonggul" as well as other websites on the very topic describes the very information. As of now (before uploading these files), there was no image representing this event in the Wikimedia Commons. I have done considerable amount of research in this topic. And to the best of my knowledge, the representations of the characters in the very images aren't dubious. During the creation, I took great care in the background (to be forest and riverbank), their dressings (traditional style), their looks, their hairstyle (to be suitable with the very ancient looks), etc. Thanks!

All of these are movie posters created in 1950 in Japan, with copyright held by corporations as given by the information. URAA restoration (1996) hit before the expiration of the Japanese copyrights, which is 2001. All files were uploaded after 1 March 2012, and whether or not they are tagged with {{Not-PD-US-URAA}}, fail to prove that they otherwise would be public domain in the United States. None appear to have US releases, or indication of the posters being circulated within the US.

These are eligible under NFCC on en.wiki (for those images that are used there), and may be eligible under ja.wiki's criteria too (I don't read Japanese and I don't trust machine translators for policy).

The range of SVG frog art on Wikimedia Commons is currently rather limited.

The claimed license is that it is public domain in Mexico, but I'm a bit doubtful on that. The photo is from an anonymous individual and was taken in the 1980s, but I can't identify any particular rationale in the licensing tag that would apply to this case. The best guess is that the uploader claims the work is anonymous, but the source "Sinaloa State" implies to me that this is likely a government photo, which would be copyrighted.

This file was initially tagged by ProfGray as Copyvio (copyvio) and the most recent rationale was: photo of artwork in a museum. If copyrightable, this would be a COM:FOP issue, as the United States does not have FOP for sculpture art. I lean towards this being copyrightable, as COM:TOO USA indicates that relatively simple sculptures (such as Chicago's "The Bean") are granted copyright protection, and I thus lean towards deletion. But I don't think it's quite enough for a speedy, so I'm sending it to DR rather than actioning the speedy. — Red-tailed hawk (nest) 03:37, 28 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Firstly, subtitles for individual spoken sounds have been deleted uncontroversially before, but from a quick look I can't find the one I was involved in. It might have been on English Wikipedia. Let me know if you want me to unearth it.

This makes a popup show up even in other languages. For example, if you go to Wikipedia:Voiced uvular fricative and play the audio in the "Voiced uvular fricative" infobox, a popup appears even though there are no English subtitles. On the other hand, if you play the audio in the "Voiced uvular approximant" infobox, no popup appears. And for that matter, I'm not aware of any other sounds that have subtitles.

Secondly, I don't think these subtitles even need to exist in the first place. I'm not quite sure how to explain it, but basically, the point of the audio is to demonstrate what a sound sounds like, and normally it's going to be placed on a page that already has a transcription of the sound it's demonstrating ([ʁ]), so there's no need for an additional transcription in the subtitles. At best, for a deaf person, it conveys what vowel is being used, but the vowel is not what's being demonstrated, so I don't see the point.

@SilentResident: Unfortunately, there's still an issue with the file in question as the question here is not necessarily the copyrights status of the file itself, but rather the fact that Greece has no FOP. As a result, no photo of the Thessaloniki Music Hall can be uploaded, or even included in a photo montage as in this specific case, due to copyrights violation. Unless, of course, any law change happens in Greece regarding this issue, something, which, to be really honest, I don't really think that there is any chance to happen. PS.

I believe you, however, from a policy-based perspective, the collage isn't the proper place for contesting each of its individual sources; you will have to raise your concerns in their respective deletion discussions, not here. And if the admins or volunteers who will evaluate your points see there a problem with the landmark's photo, then I am positive they will remove them. If this happens, I will try find some time to update the collage to remove the Science Museum and replace it with one of your excellent recommendations such as the Rotunda. In all case, the collage itself is merely is based on pictures that were not found violating the policies and remain readily available for use, so the collage shouldn't remain nominated for deletion for as long as any of its sources isn't reportedly violating the policies. However, even if the Science Museum isn't nominated for deletion, please feel free to edit and update the collage by yourself to replace the Museum with another landmark of your choice using an image editor of your choice. You are more than welcome to make edits to the collage and my permission isn't required, at all. Have a good weekend! --SilentResident (talk) 00:08, 31 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

(see https://catalog.archives.gov/id/5111276) Purpose of those cards is to create an index of all issued licences- entirety matters in this context. Therefore, those 11 files are out of scope, as they are utterly useless for any educational purpose on their own. Either the entire (linked) collection should be uploaded (althrough the educational value of this is still questionable), or those files deleted.

I agree with him on certain aspects regarding the origin of the images from the UN WEB. It is true that agencies possess the complete right to purchase, utilize, and distribute content from other media sources globally, which is the case as it is explained in the UNTV website (UN footage is not in the public domain, therefore, any use of the footage must be authorized by the United Nations and a license agreement must be signed between the UN and the requesting client. Licensing fees may apply). If the official agency APS published the content under a Creative Commons license, I believe that the government's official media is primarily focused on compliance with legal regulations.

There is no commercial Freedom of Panorama in Finland for copyrighted non-architectural works. The author of this 1969 bronze baptismal font, sculptor w:fi:Kauko Moisio, died in 2007, so the work is still under his posthumous copyright. Image is intentional to the work as the main subject.

  •  Keep. Moisio was a blacksmith, so the rough-hewn rocks are likely just rough-hewn rocks, making his sole contribution the pentagonal bronze dish. Per COM:TOO Finland, simple shapes are below the threshold of originality. I believe that is the case here. IronGargoyle (talk) 00:14, 2 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The module is not used anymore mw:Extension:Scribunto/Lua_reference_manual#strict. The seeming almost 3'000'000 transclusions result from slow update of this huge wiki.

I have done this on other wikis before. The wrong transclusion count sinks asymptotically towards ZERO, thus it can take years. It's obvious that the module is NOT used anymore NOW. Taylor 49 (talk) 14:53, 18 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Comment the module should not be used anymore and deleting it would ensure that. However I think we should wait for the number of transclusions to drop down, to ensure that it is not used somehow. Another thing to consider is to maybe just leave it be after blanking he code and convert the /doc page to explanation of what the page was and what it was replaced by. That way in the future people can inspect the edit history, and the source-code itself. --Jarekt (talk) 01:24, 16 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
 Delete: I am sure the transclusion count issue is basically another version of phab:T243602 (despite it having been closed invalid) as the actual usage can be seen by searches like: all: contentmodel:Scribunto insource:/[Nn]o globals/. Remember this module exports an empty package (which gets turned into nil) with no functions so there is no need to search in wikitext for #invoke references (as doing such will only render a permanent script error). We can still wait and watch the transclusion count drain after the page is deleted (it is just harder to find then). An argument could be made for keeping it for historic purposes (especially since mediawiki:Module:No globals is different with Module:TNT) but remember its replacement strict is now a part of Scribunto and thus goes beyond WMF and keeping historic things for such value is questionable at best. —Uzume (talk) 18:43, 16 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Jarekt: Well now you have killed its historic value save its history (not that I am complaining). BTW, you might want to look at the spelling of "depriciated" vs. "depreciated" (you also might want to add "strict" in the error message instead of just do not use it). Your edit will requeue the page cache updates and cause the remaining links to drain faster. Thank you, —Uzume (talk) 06:15, 22 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Uzume: Good suggestions, I implemented them. As for historic value, what I meant was to preserve history of the page, and that is intact. --Jarekt (talk) 00:39, 23 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Jarekt: Agreed, but I notice you still have not corrected the misspelling "depriciated". —Uzume (talk) 06:11, 23 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Jarekt: "Depreciated" has a different meaning than "deprecated" (notice no "i"). Cool, your timely edits to this module may have removed more transclusion links than JarektBot did by replacing template redirects. This module is now finally down to less than a quarter million transclusions. Thanks, —Uzume (talk) 00:08, 25 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Indeed any edit accelerates the decay of wrong translusion claims. The module is obviously unused, and can be deleted. It's not about storage space (this silly discussion is now much more bloated than the code was), it's about maitainability. Any transclusion attempt should give an error and nothing else. Taylor 49 (talk) 21:40, 28 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Taylor 49:Actually, there is a storage space element to it. I recall not long after this was removed from usage here and it still had over 50 million transclusion links. That takes space in the database tables. Moving to strict and draining those obsolete links from the tables can improve performance across Commons (unfortunately there are many other elements in the opposite direction but every bit helps). Sadly due to numerous reasons (not the least of which is related to parser cache splits most commonly because "File:" pages want to render in the user preference language due constructs like {{int:lang}}, which can be different for every user/web request), the job queue cannot keep up with requests to update stale cached pages and thus they do not get entirely updated. —Uzume (talk) 03:03, 1 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Transclusions are now at zero, I think this can be deleted now. Thanks. Mike Peel (talk) 05:18, 11 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The Shelby County Sheriff’s Office was formed in 1820. This badge has been used since the beginning of the department. Henryja1002 (talk) 11:53, 30 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
If so, please provide link or source with evidence of that. At present, the logo's source is just to a webpage with a clear copyright notice. -- Infrogmation of New Orleans (talk) 17:10, 30 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
First and foremost under the US constitution it is prohibits registering a trademark that "consists of or comprises the flag or coat of arms or other insignia of the United States, or of any State or municipality," (15 U.S.C. § 1052) Given the badge of the sheriff’s office contains the seal of the state of Tennessee it can not be trademarked.
Secondly you can tell by checking https://shelbycountytn.gov/1264/A-Brief-History-of-Shelby-County that the county jail was remodeled in 1981 meaning the jail existed prior to that.
Thirdly, the Officer Down Memorial Page chronicles the SCSO’s existence back to July 11, 1904 (https://www.odmp.org/agency/3553-shelby-county-sheriffs-office-tennessee)
Finally under Tennessee case law (Metropolitan Gov't of Nashville & Davidson County v. Poe, 383 S.W.2d 265, 273 (1964)) each county sheriff is required to maintain the jail. This means that SCSO existed back then and maintained the jail as is required by state law.
With all these facts I find clear and convincing evidence that not only has the Sheriff’s Office existed past the date you stated, it is also covered in federal law that there can be no copyright on the badge due to the states seal being on the badge.

Per [11], this ca. 1943 (Kleist is named as Generalfeldmarschall) German postcard shows yet another photograph by de:Heinrich Hoffmann (Fotograf), who died in 1957. So it is still protected by copyright in Germany until the end of 2027, and the file should be deleted. Another version of the same photograph was deleted earlier with Commons:Deletion requests/File:Generaloberst v. Kleist.jpeg.

The file can be restored in 2028, unless it is found that the URAA did restore the US copyright for this photograph after all. The US copyright for a 1943 photograph would run to the end of 2038, so in that case the file could be restored in 2039. Rosenzweig τ 12:26, 30 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I found a higher quality scan of the original photogaraph, at the bottom left there's an "E. Bieber" watermark. I assume that the photograph was taken by an anonymous photographer working at the E. Bieber studio. Maybe the Hoffmann copyright refers to the postcard reproduction of the original image, published by Hoffmann? Meeepmep (talk) 01:32, 9 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Well, the Bavarian State Library, which has bought Hoffmann's negative archive, credits it to Hoffmann. But even if it were by the E. Bieber studio, the photographer is not necessarily unknown or anonymous. After de:Leonard Berlin-Bieber, the founder of the "E. Bieber" studio in Berlin, that studio was sold in 1910 to a photographer named Julius Rosenberg, who was apparently still around in 1931 accd. to web searches. It's not (yet?) clear who was the owner and photographer in 1942, but as said that's not necessarily anonymous. A 1942 German postcard is also still protected by US copyright until the end of 2037. --Rosenzweig τ 18:15, 11 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

These pages taken from a 1934 German book were uploaded with the claim that there are "no known copyright restrictions". This is not true however. The book being published in 1934 means that it is still protected by copyright in the US until the end of 2029.

In Germany, copyright depends on when the author(s) died. The text of the book was written by de:Hermann M. von Eelking, who died in 1970. So the text page is still protected in Germany until the end of 2040. Per the immediate source, the illustrations of the book were done by Erwin Leiner (1903–1934) and Curt Bog (1900–1971). While Leiner's parts are already in the public domain in Germany (while still being protected in the US), I don't see any attribution to him for the drawings on the pages that were uploaded, so we have to assume that those are Bog's and still protected in Germany until the end of 2041.

So the files should be deleted. They can be restored in 2041 (the text-only page 68) and 2042 (the rest of the pages).

And this for example belongs to Fenerbahçe, 1966-67 season. — Preceding unsigned comment was added by 2a02:1812:1104:c400:219e:70ce:1f1c:95b4 (talk) 23:30, 30 March 2024‎ (UTC)[reply]

Here are some proofs/sources of this being the 1963 Balkans Cup trophy: https://retrosport.wordpress.com/2016/09/18/1963-%CF%84%CE%BF-%CE%BE%CE%B5%CF%87%CE%B1%CF%83%CE%BC%CE%AD%CE%BD%CE%BF-%CE%BA%CF%8D%CF%80%CE%B5%CE%BB%CE%BB%CE%BF-%CF%84%CE%BF%CF%85-%CE%BF%CE%BB%CF%85%CE%BC%CF%80%CE%B9%CE%B1%CE%BA%CE%BF%CF%8D/ https://www.olympiacos.org/tropaia/ http://www.redsagainsthemachine.gr/articles/121020/balkaniko-kypello-toy-1963 — Preceding unsigned comment added by Xaliver (talk • contribs) 18:29, 26 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Video is freely licensed, but the music is copyrighted (Copyright Rules Everything Around Me :/) Bremps... 02:33, 31 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

How would one know that is the case? Could the Wu-Tang Clan have given permission to MTV to distribute the performance further, including by releasing the recording with a CC-BY license? A similar deletion request is Commons:Deletion requests/Files in Category:Hogwarts Legacy. However, in that request, a game studio rather than a TV studio was involved. It was assumed there that the game studio would have acquired any licensing from other parties (for items such as in-game artwork and sounds/music) allowing release of the videos as CC-BY.
Fundamentally the question which appears to be unanswered by policies/guidelines/etc of Commons (example: Commons:Problematic sources) is which types of individuals or types of organisations are assumed to understand and have obtained all required rights needed to release something with a CC-BY license. Past deletion request precedent appears to confirm that music labels and game studios are assumed to know what they're doing when they release something as CC-BY. Does MTV know what they're doing when they release a CC-BY video recording of a music performance? I don't know. But hopefully a gap in policy/guidelines can be addressed in some of the documents at Category:Commons licensing help. Dhx1 (talk) 14:28, 31 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It would be so dope if C.R.E.A.M by the Wu was freely licensed. That was why I didn't speedy it, and have opened a discussion at the Village Pump. Bremps... 02:36, 1 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
MTV definitely licensed the video components. The performers obviously allowed themselves to be recorded by MTV, so there are no performer's rights issues. The video is definitely a derivative work of the song, so there is a songwriting (and lyric) credit that MTV does not own at play. This is definitely not a license for the song itself; it would just be a license to use clips of this particular performance of it. It may come down to the contract between MTV and the band... does MTV have enough rights to license the video as they wish? The question is if we need a specific OK from the owner of the song's copyright to allow this particular derivative work to have the license, or if we think that MTV's license alone implies that the band authorized any further derivative works of the resulting video.

@Hide on Rosé Bạn ơi tôi đọc rồi nhưng vẫn chưa hiểu rõ đâu. Vậy là bây giờ dù tôi có đi chụp hay lấy ảnh video thì tất cả những thứ như cổng làng, đình chùa, giếng nước, văn bia, chuông đồng... đều không được up à? Giả sử bia 800 năm rồi vẫn dính bản quyền ư? Ban đầu tôi đã hỏi là đình chùa cổ thì có được up không đó. Vậy là giờ ảnh sẽ bị xóa phải không? Vậy bạn xóa luôn hộ tôi ảnh cổng này, đều từ video đó: Tamhiep10 Tamhiep6 và hai ảnh này do tôi chụp và sửa Tuongphieu1 Tuongphieu2. Cũng nhờ bạn xác nhận cho món cà dầm tương. Cái này là món ăn thì không sao phải không? Nt5974 (talk) 06:56, 31 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Nt5974: Bạn lưu ý
Các hạn chế COM:FOP Vietnam chỉ áp dụng đối với tác phẩm được tạo ra kể từ sau 1 tháng 1 năm 2023; có nghĩa là những tác phẩm (ảnh chụp) được tạo ra trước 1 tháng 1 năm 2023 thì không bị ảnh hưởng bởi hạn chế này.
Cà dầm tương, trên quan điểm cá nhân của tôi (IMHO), không được coi là tác phẩm mỹ thuật, kiến trúc, nhiếp ảnh, mỹ thuật ứng dụng được trưng bày tại nơi công cộng.
Ngoài ra, nếu có thể xin hãy sử dụng tiếng Anh để tiện thảo luận với các thành viên tham gia thảo luận khác. Hide on Rosé (talk) 07:16, 31 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Hide on Rosé Rất xin lỗi vì tiếng Anh của tôi rất tệ. Vậy ý là tôi đi xin ảnh cũ rồi up lên và điền ngày tháng trước 1/1/2023 thì vẫn được đúng không? Nhưng làm thế nào để các bạn biết đó là ảnh ngày xưa với ảnh bây giờ đã bị dùng hiệu ứng cho cũ bớt? Tôi muốn hỏi cho rõ vì trên này hướng dẫn toàn bằng tiếng Anh, không cẩn thận dễ bị cấm quá. Nt5974 (talk) 07:20, 31 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Nt5974: Có nhiều cách để cả người tải lên và tuần tra viên kiểm tra ngày tạo ra của tác phẩm:
  • Kiểm tra ngày mà tác phẩm được tải lên hoặc tạo ra được ghi chú trên trang web nguồn;
  • Kiểm tra ngày tạo ra của tập tin, được ghi trên metadata của tập tin, nếu có.
Đối với quy định, mặc dù các tình nguyện viên đang hỗ trợ dịch các quy định (bạn sẽ thấy liên kết Tiếng Việt ở hầu hết đầu trang quy định), tuy nhiên số lượng quy định là lớn và không phải lúc nào cũng có tình nguyện viên tích cực tham gia biên dịch. Bạn có thể sử dụng các chương trình dịch tự động như Google Dịch. Hide on Rosé (talk) 07:24, 31 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Hide on Rosé Vậy giả sử tôi có bức ảnh đình làng ngày xưa và nó ở dạng hiện vật (giấy in), không phải dạng file (trên thiết bị). Hôm nay tôi lấy điện thoại ra chụp lại thì data sẽ tính theo ngày hôm nay và ảnh không được chấp nhận trên này đúng không. Phiền bạn trả lời nốt câu này thôi. Xin cảm ơn!

English translation of the above conversation between me (Hide on Rosé) and Nt5974
@Hide on Rosé I've read it but I still don't understand it clearly. So now even if I take pictures or videos, all the things like the village gate, pagoda, well, stele, bronze bell... can't be uploaded? Suppose a tombstone is still copyrighted after 800 years? At first, I asked if an ancient pagoda could be uploaded. So now the photo will be deleted? Please also delete photos of the temple gate for me, it's all from that video in YouTube: Tamhiep10 Tamhiep6 and these two photos were taken and edited by me Tuongphieu1 Tuongphieu2. Also please confirm about the "cà dầm tương", this is a dish, so it's okay, right? Nt5974 (talk) 06:56, 31 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Nt5974: Please note
COM:FOP Vietnam restriction only applies to the works created after 1 January 2023; that means work created before 1 January 2023 won't be affected by this restriction.
"Cà dầm tương" IMHO, is not considered as architectural and artistic works in public spaces from Vietnam..
Also, please consider using English. Hide on Rosé (talk) 07:16, 31 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Hide on Rosé Apologize for my very bad English. So that means if I ask for old photos and upload them and fill in the date before January 1, 2023, it's still okay, right? But how do you know if it's an old photo or a photo that has been used with effects to make it look old? I want to ask clearly because the guidelines and policy here are all in English. If I'm not careful, I'll easily get blocked. Nt5974 (talk) 07:20, 31 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Nt5974: There are several ways for both uploaders and patrollers to check a work's creation date:
  • Check the upload/creation date of the work where it was first uploaded or created;
  • Check the creation date in file metadata, if it has.
As for the policy and guidelines, although volunteers are helping to translate them (you will see the Vietnamese link "Tiếng Việt" at most of the top of the policy page), the number of policy in Commons is large and not always available volunteers actively participate in translation. You can use automatic translation programs like Google Translate. Hide on Rosé (talk) 07:24, 31 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Hide on Rosé So let's say I have a photo of an old village communal house and it's in physical form (printed paper), not in file form (on a device). Today when I took out my phone to take a photo, the data will be recorded as today's date and the photo is not accepted here, right? Please answer this question. Thank you! Nt5974 (talk) 07:42, 31 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Nt5974
I haven't seen that picture, so I can't say anything.
You can upload it to Commons, and it will be reviewed by another user. Hide on Rosé (talk) 07:45, 31 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Hide on RoséYes, I will go ask for the file on the device just to be sure. Thank you again! Nt5974 (talk) 07:47, 31 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Hide on Rosé Bạn ơi, nếu phóng to bức ảnh sẽ thấy tấm băng rôn đỏ ghi dòng chữ "tháng 3 năm nhâm dần (2022)". Vậy có thể coi là bức ảnh được chụp từ thời điểm đó (trước 1/1/2023) không? En: Dear friend, if you zoom in on the photo, you will see a red banner with the words "March of the Year of the Tiger (2022)".

I have verified the issue of LIFE, 1968 Mar 22, Vol. 64, No. 12, which is also included below the photo of Ho Chi Minh, Leclerc, Sainteny (1946) on Flickr.

There was no credit given to the photographer, who was thus unknown. An old historical photo like this one, with no known photographer, would belong to the Vietnamese people and the public, for which the licenses {{PD-Vietnam}} and {{PD-1996}}—such as used in the photo c:File:Le_Grand_Etat-Major_des_Troupes_Caodaïstes.jpg dated in 1948—would be appropriate.

On Flickr, there was a note on the photo of Ho Chi Minh, Leclerc, Sainteny (1946) saying "Note: There is no license history before July 17, 2008."

The blanket copyright on page 5 of this LIFE issue (below the table of contents) was for this whole issue, which could include photos that LIFE did not own the copyright. Images with specific copyright were indicated, such as the advertisement of Nabisco on page 8 in this LIFE issue.

Moreover, this Flickr user Manhhai has uploaded a large number of media items, not all of them have the free license CC BY 2.0 Deed, such as the 1969 Sep 12 issue of Time Magazine on Ho Chi Minh, appearing just a few months after the above LIFE, 1968 Mar 22, Vol. 64, No. 12.

Please let me know if there are any objections to using the licenses {{PD-Vietnam}} and {{PD-1996}} for the photo of Ho Chi Minh, Leclerc, Sainteny (1946).

Thank you.

LIFE/Time does NOT own copyright: Solid evidence 1

[edit]

@Racconish: @Yann: @JJMC89: @DHN:

Below is solid evidence that LIFE and Time do NOT own the copyright of the photo File:1946 Ho Chi Minh Leclerc Sainteny 2.png.

Google has archived millions of historic photos from the LIFE photo archive.

LIFE photo archive hosted by Google: Search millions of photographs from the LIFE photo archive, stretching from the 1750s to today. Most were never published and are now available for the first time through the joint work of LIFE and Google.

LIFE image collection by Google: Any image in the LIFE photo archive has the name of the photographer and the copyright by Time.

For example, the photo titled Underwater Fashion Show was taken by LIFE photographer Sam Shere in February 1947, with the Copyright Time Inc.

The following search indicates that LIFE (now Time) did have and own the copyright of many photos of historic figures such as US Presidents Franklin D. Roosevelt, Harry S. Truman, Lyndon B. Johnson, and French General Charles de Gaulle:

On the other hand, LIFE or Time did NOT have and own the copyright of ANY photo of Ho Chi Minh in the period of 1945-1954 (except for some 1957 photos of Ho Chi Minh in Poland), ANY photo of General Leclerc, ANY photo of Sainteny, and ANY photo of Nguyen Ai Quoc (former name of Ho Chi Minh).

  •  Keep Despite obvious license washing at immediate source. The photo was taken by a photographer working for The French Army and published in 1952 in Adrien Dansette's Leclerc, p. 142, with credit to Service Presse Information, the French Army's photographic agency. French copyright applies here. Since there is no personal attribution it is a collective work which has now fallen in the public domain. — Racconish💬 15:19, 7 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

LIFE/Time does NOT own copyright: Solid evidence 2

[edit]

@Racconish: @Yann: @JJMC89: @DHN:

I borrowed Devillers (1952), Histoire du Viet Nam, from the library again, and noted that there was this mention regarding the photo of Ho Chi Minh, Leclerc, Sainteny (1946) on Flickr: "Ci-contre: Leclerc, Ho Chi Minh, Sainteny. Hanoi, 18 mars 1946. Photo S. C. A." This fact supports the finding of Racconish in Section #Image search method, French archives/publications that there was no credit given to a photographer.

NOTE: S. C. A. = Service Cinématographique des Armées (Motion-Picture Service of the Armed Forces), a branch of the "Service Presse Information," mentioned by Racconish, who recommended to KEEP the image c:File:1946_Ho_Chi_Minh_Leclerc_Sainteny_2.png close to a month ago on 15:19, 7 April 2024 (UTC).[reply]

LIFE/Time does NOT own copyright: Solid evidence 3

[edit]

@Racconish: @Yann: @JJMC89: @DHN:

In the issue of LIFE, 1968 Mar 22, Vol. 64, No. 12, which is also included below the photo of Ho Chi Minh, Leclerc, Sainteny (1946) on Flickr, the image c:File:Ho Chi Minh and OSS Deer Team, Bac Bo Palace, 1945 Sep.png was published without credit.

Based on the careful search in the LIFE image archive as documented in Section "#LIFE/Time does NOT own copyright: Solid evidence 1" above, LIFE does not hold the copyright for the image c:File:Ho Chi Minh and OSS Deer Team, Bac Bo Palace, 1945 Sep.png.

In the award-winning history book by Logevall (2012) below, the image c:File:Ho Chi Minh and OSS Deer Team, Bac Bo Palace, 1945 Sep.png was published at the top of p.86 with the credit given on p.802 to a "Private collection" ! The photographer is clearly unknown.

In the book based on w:The_Vietnam_War_(TV_series) by

the same image c:File:Ho Chi Minh and OSS Deer Team, Bac Bo Palace, 1945 Sep.png was published on p.15 with the credit given on p.609 to "Alex K. Thomas papers, Bentley Historical Library, University of Michigan." Major Allison (Alex) K. Thomas, commander of the w:OSS Deer Team, sat on the left of Ho Chi Minh in the image c:File:Ho Chi Minh and OSS Deer Team, Bac Bo Palace, 1945 Sep.png.

See a detailed documentation on this photo in Section "Update on misprint in EW p.86, 2024.05.04" in Notes on Vietnam History, version 2024.05.04, or for future versions, go to Notes on Vietnam History, Internet Archive.

The unknown photographer cannot be a French colonial-army personnel, who was not allowed in the Viet Minh stronghold at Tan Trao in 1945 Aug or in the Bac Bo Palace in 1945 Sep when the Ho Chi Minh Provisional Government occupied it. Thus this photographer can only be either a Viet Minh photographer, in which case the {{PD-Vietnam}} license applies, or a member of the w:OSS Deer Team, in which case the {{PD-USGov-Military-Army}} license applies.

So I used both templates {{PD-Vietnam}} and {{PD-USGov-Military-Army}} in the image c:File:Ho Chi Minh and OSS Deer Team, Bac Bo Palace, 1945 Sep.png to cover both cases.

@CoffeeEngineer: Hi, I see that the other two files are not VRT-pending (as far as I can see), so I just remove the file name, and remove the deletion request on the file page. Grtz. - Inertia6084 (talk) (talk) 12:58, 4 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Claridgesmontford: - Hi, did you send permission for the other two pictures to VRT? If you didn't, they can be removed after 7 or more days, from the day you uploaded them. So please provide the right information, or ask VRT for more information and questions. Grtz. - Inertia6084 (talk) (talk) 12:58, 4 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Same as Commons:Deletion requests/Files in Category:Gandabahali. Uploader is a sock of Iptesh Kumar Meher (talk · contribs) who uploaded the files from that past discussion, and has already been blocked on enwiki.

Some of these new files are sourced to "Facebook, unknown author" or "Google", others to "Ganesh Puja Committee" or "Gandabahali Development Authority", all with no evidence of permission. The one file straightforwardly claimed as own work (File:The Elephant Stone, Gandabahali.jpg) appears on Google Maps' photos of that location credited to a Pradyumna Meher and taken in 2020, it's not clear if this is the sock user or just a common surname in the area.

Files uploaded by User:Mike12332

[edit]

All those files have been uploaded by yet-another-sock-puppet of a well known cross-wiki spammer and long term abuser (identified also by Check User on it.wiki). This specific user, as all of his known sock puppets, is currently globally locked (see also this request, this request, and this request on Meta). He's a teenager trying to promote himself as "musician", "photographer" and "record producer" (all home-made). In particular, he's using Commons as a kind of "photobook repository" to gain visibility on the web. Since these uploads are first of all useless (no educational purpose, no usage on any Wikimedia article), with a dumb description (kind of lines of poetry) but most of all by a LTA escaping from a global lock, the request is to remove them from Commons ("Commons as personal repository", "self-promotional intent"). These files were originally requested for speedy deletion, but since the rationale behind was not evident, the SD request was reverted. A regular DR is opened instead. --Superspritz (talk) 18:59, 31 March 2024 (UTC) P.S. Since the uploader is not globally locked, a warning on his user talk sounds useless. It was added anyway just for tracking purposes.[reply]

No sign of open license at source: https://guelph.ca/city-hall/mayor-and-council/mayors-office/. Also no record in the City of Guelph open data portal for this photo: http://data.open.guelph.ca/. Copyright likely belongs to the City. The contact email is there if anyone would like to inquire, otherwise delete it. PascalHD (talk) 20:15, 31 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This file was initially tagged by CoffeeEngineer as Speedy (SD) and the most recent rationale was: F10. That is not true, the pianist is more or less notable, but the source and authorship of this picture (originated probably in 1970-ies) must be disclosed.
