Photographer died in 1991. Needs VRT permission from his estate. Undelete in 2062. Abzeronow (talk) 00:57, 23 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Incorrect license. This image is a photo of the subject in the uniform of the Oklahoma City Fire Department and was taken before his tenure as a FEMA/USFA appointee. So PD-USGov-FEMA is incorrect. William Graham (talk) 02:18, 23 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

There is no commercial Freedom of Panorama in Japan for public sculptures, so commercial Creative Commons licensing permission from the sculptor (or his heirs, whoever they may be) is still required. The statue is from 1989 according to enwiki.

  •  Keep. While certainly creatively ornamented as a figure, this would be a building/architectural work according to US law (note that people can go into and look out from the figure) and I don't see any evidence that Japanese law would classify it differently. Japan allows freedom of panorama for works of architecture. IronGargoyle (talk) 20:13, 24 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    @IronGargoyle Japanese legal literature treats architecture more restrictively. There is a past discussion before (at Commons talk:Freedom of panorama/Archive 1#Hideyuki Murata), in which from an insight of some lawyers like Murata, buildings that are too artistic should not be considered as architecture for purposes of Article 46 (the FoP provision), but as artistic works. A specific example mentioned by the lawyer is the w:en:Tower of the Sun, which is a building technically but not an architecture. A common agreement among many lawyers there is that such types of buildings cannot be shared or distributed for selling of copies purposes. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 23:35, 24 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    I don't think this is necessarily comparable with Tower of the Sun. That is a big open chamber inside and the exterior details are much more superficial. Those are what may be protected. Here there are multiple floors, interior elevators, and an exterior balcony which is integrated with the work. That integration of the practical with the aesthetic would push this towards architectural. IronGargoyle (talk) 14:02, 26 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    @IronGargoyle no, there is no evidence that Japan follows the U.S. approach in definition of architecture. The legal literature in Japan differentiate architecture and artistic works in terms of aesthetics, not the mere existence of indoor facilities like rooms and elevators inside the statue. For sure, Japanese courts will yield negative views on commercial uses of images of this and all other contemporary life-sized Buddha statues in Japan that contain indoor spaces. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 19:50, 26 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    I'm not saying that Japanese and US standards are the same. I looked more closely at the archived webpage cited in the 15+ year-old discussion. The Japanese lawyer (Murata) cited isn't even saying that Tower of the Sun is an artistic work. He is saying that if it was an artistic work it would have protection from photographic reproduction. IronGargoyle (talk) 23:47, 26 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    @IronGargoyle you may want to post a new discussion at VP forum if there's a need to contest current consensus regarding Japanese FoP. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 00:56, 27 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Because the text of a menu is not copyrightable. There's no art involved in creation of this menu list (e.g. it has no pictures). PaterMcFly (talk) 06:44, 24 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Letter scan without educatiuonal use Drakosh (talk) 07:55, 23 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The letter concerns an Uzbek politician (who seemingly got accused of damaging a company but was aquitted of such accusations, judging by the Russian file description). I've added the relevant categories to make the connection to said politician (Hasanboy Burxonov) clear. There are articles about Hasanboy Burxonov on Uzbek, Russian and Ukrainian Wikipedia (and there's a currently declined draft on him on English Wikipedia: Draft:Hasanboy Burhanov), so I'd say that the guy is notable enough to keep documents that concern him.

La wiphala no representa al departamento de Tarija, ellos no se representan con banderas, y tampoco representa al sureste ni suroeste de Chuquisaca Elpepefachero (talk) 20:09, 15 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Elpepefachero Esta no es razón para borrar el mapa pero sí para corregirlo. En la zona que describes que no va la Wiphala se podría poner en blanco como parte de la bandera de la flor de Patujú, saludos.Janitoalevic (talk) 03:49, 16 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Kept (non-sysop closed): No valid reason for deletion. --(`・ω・´) (talk) 11:17, 16 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The map is wrong, given that the Wiphala is an official flag in all of Bolivia, according to Article 6 of the Constitution of Bolivia Ingaviano (talk) 08:16, 23 May 2024 (UTC) Adding information to the above: we have to read the Article 6 of the Constitution of Bolivia approved in 2009, which clearly states that the wiphala is a national symbol of Bolivia. Nowhere does it say it is only in certain regions of Bolivia, and national means that it is official in all of the country. Not only that, there is no law that states the Patujú flag is official in all of the regions that it shows. This map shows a subjective "gut feeling" of what flag is supposed to go where, but does not reflect the laws and the Constitution of Bolivia. This makes this map invalid and completely incorrect, and should therefore be deleted.--Ingaviano (talk) 08:21, 23 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It makes no sense to have fun the country in two poles, when the consitutationally consitutational flag is a national symbol, Asismimo there are more indigenous flags in Bolivia, including all of them would be complex on a map, so it must be eliminated. Bodoque9903 (talk) 20:16, 28 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, the Wiphala being also a national flag makes this map invalid, because it is showing a wrong depiction of where the Wiphala is "official". It is not limited to just some regions, it is a national symbol according to Article 6 of the Constitution. @-akko Do you think you can please weigh in on this issue? Thank you in advance. Ingaviano (talk) 15:13, 31 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Coat of arms is erronously attributed to the archbishop. The shield is the coat of arms of a monastery in Guatemala: [1] Nominated for deletion per request of uploader/author. GiovanniYosh12 (talk) 08:29, 23 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It is not a naming issue. The coat of arms of the monastery only bears a crosier as seen in the attached image, and the original uploader mistaken it to be the coat of arms of the archbishop, thus the galero and the cross was used. It cannot be kept as is because of the incorrect external ornaments. GiovanniYosh12 (talk) 06:22, 25 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This file was initially tagged by Masur as no source (No source since). However, the original uploader explicitly claimed it as their own work.

  •  Keep While Norlin, the then-current owner of Moog Synthesizers could had copyrighted some of their advertisements or pamphlets by print or by registration (which I remember seeing it in some Gibson guitars ads), in this case, not even I could find a copyright registration for the brochure attributed to Norlin or R.A.

 Keep This is still a true copy of the image on OWID at the time of upload and is therefore a valuable record. Keep Jason.nlw (talk) 15:36, 23 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
If it is kept I don't the title, description etc are adequate if the source map is now different, indicating the version here is flawed. If it is useful as an example of how maps for a given year on OWID can change and be improved over time or flawed then that should be clear, for example via the file title. Prototyperspective (talk) 15:47, 23 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It is possible this version is flawed. It is also possible that a slighlty different measure has been used to plot the chart- given that the descriptions are different. It is also possible that the current version has been mislabeled as 2019 when it is infact a later date. All seem equaly plausible to me. To get to the bottom of it will require a thorough investigation and contact with the source provider and i really dont think a deletion request is a fair or proportional approach in this case. As the uploader i'm happy to look into it. But it will likely take more the 5 days. Jason.nlw (talk) 17:41, 23 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Why keep a flawed version and make much of an effort to find out why it's flawed instead of just uploading the fixed latest version? There are obviously issues if it differs this much from the current map for the same year. See the difference for Norway. Details about what was needed to be adjusted or harmonized/standardized for the map would be useful in the description of the latest version if available.
