The pictures show the poster for an exhibition of the artist Hans-Peter Klie - i can not see a reason why it can not be shown on his wikipedia entry? Furthermore Hans-Peter Klie designed the poster, so he is the copyright owner. Obviously he agreed to the publication and wants his work to be shown in wikipedia. Can you please put the pictures back into Wiki? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Blau-7 (talk • contribs) 20:35, 25 February 2023‎ (UTC)

 Oppose First, we don't keep images as PDFs. Second, there are numerous images as part of the poster which are credited to third parties. I doubt very much that all of them are freely licensed. Third, "Obviously he agreed to the publication and wants his work to be shown" is not a free license. It is not at all obvious that an artist would want his work to be freely licensed so that others can create and sell copies of it. Some do, but many do not. .     Jim . . .

The pictures shows a screen shot of a videoart film of the artist Hans-Peter Klie. Of course he agreed to the publication and wants his work to be shown in wikipedia. Can you please put the pictures back into Wiki? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Blau-7 (talk • contribs)

"Of course he agreed to the publication and wants his work to be shown in wikipedia" is not a free license. It is not at all obvious that an artist would want his work to be freely licensed so that others can create and sell copies of it. Some do, but many do not. Also note that "to be shown in wikipedia" is too limited. We require that works be free for any use by anybody anywhere. .     Jim . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 17:49, 26 February 2023 (UTC)

The undeletion discussion in the following section is now closed. Please do not make any edits to this archive.

Per Section 65 of the Act on Copyright and Related Rights (Urheberrechtsgesetz – UrhG) copyright in cinematographic works expires 70 years after the death of the last surviving of the following persons: the principle film director, the author of the screenplay, the author of the dialogues, the composer of music specifically composed for use in the cinematographic work in question. This applies at the end of that calendar year per Section 69. The longest lived was Henrik Galeen who died in 1949, hence the movie and this screenshot are in the public domain in Germany, and they are also in the public domain in the US due to the publication date 1922. Hekerui (talk) 10:49, 20 February 2023 (UTC)

Perplexingly, though the movie as a whole is now indeed in the public domain in Germany, per this recent discussion (in German), individual stills (frames) taken from the movie are probably still not free until 2029, as German courts apparently consider the cinematographer (Kameramann) as the creator of individual frames, and Fritz Arno Wagner died only in 1958. This creates the slightly absurd situation that, in German-language Wikipedia, we can embed a video with the whole movie in the article, but not single images from the movie. So, I also think that this image shouldn't be restored before 2029. Gestumblindi (talk) 11:22, 20 February 2023 (UTC)
The linked discussion references a documentary movie that has no director but only two camera people so those are counted as copyright holders, no? ("Ich habe mir das von Syrco zitierte Urteil angeschaut und dort ging es offenbar um dokumentarische Aufnahmen, bei denen als Urheber eh nur zwei Kameramänner und sonst niemand in Frage kam"). Hekerui (talk) 12:38, 20 February 2023 (UTC)
Per the contribution of Pajz in Commons:Deletion requests/File:Greta-Garbo-and-Jaro-Furth-in-the-film-Joyless-Street-1925-142462321702.jpg, still frames from the film itself do not not share in the protection of the film work as such, but can be protected either as simple photographs, for 50 years from creation, or as photographic works with 70 years pma, depending on the level of originality ("Die Einzelbilder eines Filmwerks sind nicht nach Abs. 1 Nr. 6 schutzfähig, können aber als Lichtbildwerke nach Abs. 1 Nr. 5 oder als Lichtbilder nach § 72 geschützt sein"). The author would indeed be the cameraman. This seems original enough for 70 years pma to me, so I  oppose undeletion before 2029. --Rosenzweig τ 16:48, 20 February 2023 (UTC)
That's also how I read Syrcro's reply to my question in the current German discussion ("ja, das meint es wohl"), i.e. that frames from a film can be considered individual works with the cameraman as the creator. As I said there, it's not very logical IMHO, especially if you have a video you can pause anytime and then view a single image, too... (but then, the law probably is from before the time of digital videos or widely available video at all). Gestumblindi (talk) 18:19, 20 February 2023 (UTC)
Copyright laws may be somewhat logical when they are new, but after several decades of changes and amendments they have these inconsistencies. --Rosenzweig τ 07:06, 21 February 2023 (UTC)
Hmm. So we have Category:Nosferatu and especially File:Nosferatu (1922, English titles 1947).webm, but we can't have this file? This doesn't hold much water... Yann (talk) 07:53, 21 February 2023 (UTC)
It's not logical, as both Gestumblindi and I pointed out. But laws and court decisions are not always logical. --Rosenzweig τ 08:09, 21 February 2023 (UTC)
I have to agree. Also by the additional quotes by Syrcro in the German discussion, though it is not logical to us, it is the law as the courts apply it. So we can have the whole movie here, but not single frames, until 2029. Gestumblindi (talk) 10:51, 21 February 2023 (UTC)
PS: Except for the movie itself, and File:Wismar Markt Nosferatu 01.jpg which was taken under freedom of panorama as a plaque in a public space, there are no images directly from the movie in Category:Nosferatu (rightly so). One that might at first glance look like it, File:Gerbic as Nosferatu 2013.JPG, is a modern re-enactment/cosplay image. File:Gustav von Wangenheim 1922.jpg looks like Gustav von Wangenheim as Hutter in the movie, but it's apparently from a postcard and a separately taken still image. Gestumblindi (talk) 12:23, 21 February 2023 (UTC)
How long a film cut would make it acceptable? 5 minutes? 1 mn? 10 s? It is quite clear that applying such a rule would create complete absurd situations. Yann (talk) 12:39, 22 February 2023 (UTC)
I think you misunderstand the legal argument. Any "film cut" that is still a film (moving images) would be acceptable, even if very short; the German courts just apply a different kind of protection to still frames taken from the film, the same as for photographs. It took some time to wrap my head around it, but ultimately, I think it's not even that illogical. And at least 2029 is not that far in the future ;-) Gestumblindi (talk) 20:24, 22 February 2023 (UTC)
I understand perfectly the argument, but it creates absurd situations. So we could have a two-frame film, but not one single still frame... Yann (talk) 21:02, 22 February 2023 (UTC)
Well, but that's what's established by the German courts, we can't change it. - For what it's worth, like Rosenzweig, I therefore (although I've already said as much) formally  oppose undeletion before 2029, maybe another admin wants to close this request now, which has been open for quite a while? Gestumblindi (talk) 19:28, 28 February 2023 (UTC)

Also

The above files were originally tagged for incomplete licenses after which I provided all the appropriate and complete information. I think the deleting editor may have missed the added information. Kindly restore. Thanks Wilson (talk) 00:21, 24 February 2023 (UTC)

@OtuNwachinemere: You say "This image was created using elements freely provided and already uploaded to Canva", but we cannot verify the free license of those elements with a generic statement like that. You must provide a link to every element that you used, whether it comes from Wikimedia Commons or some other free-licensed website. -- King of ♥ 06:36, 24 February 2023 (UTC)
Could you please share with me an example of what this particular license information should look like? Please thank you.
Also, in File:WLA 2023 PNG Banner.png, i did correct the license to reflect the source of the original elements (which is a file on Commons) using the {{Own - based on template. Wilson (talk) 18:19, 24 February 2023 (UTC)

 Oppose Also, unless you were the actual photographer and artist of all the graphic elements in the files, your claim of {{Own}} is incorrect and, unless all of those elements were PD, you are in violation of CC-BY licenses. Such violations can cost tens of thousands of dollars.

Finally, I note a misspelling ("tern" should be "term") in the first one and the last one tells us, "Contest images have been viewed 1,044,490,672 million times (as at June 2022)". That's a little more than one quadrillion (10^15) views, over 100,000 views by every person on Earth, which seems a little unlikely. So, those two are useless except, possibly as illustrations of carelessness. .     Jim . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 15:50, 24 February 2023 (UTC)

What two are you referring to? @Jameslwoodward
Also, the license was adjusted from Own to 'Own - based on' with links to the source file on Commons which i believe is the correct license for a derivative work. They were not deleted because of errors in spelling or text, kindly stick to the topic. Wilson (talk) 18:26, 24 February 2023 (UTC)
In my comment I referred to "the first" and "the last" which, I think, sufficiently identifies them. As for finding problems not mentioned in the DR, it is our job here to decide whether the images are appropriate for Commons, taking into account both copyright and other factors.
The first one has two photographs and four pieces of artwork, none of which have sources. It also has a spelling mistake.
The second one has a photograph and at least one (maybe more) pieces of art, none of which have sources.
The third has three or more photographs (the clouds are at least one, maybe more) and several pieces of art. One photographer is named but the file name and license are not not given.
The fourth has a photograph, one piece of art, and copyrighted text, none of which are sourced. It also has a ridiculous number, a spelling mistake and several grammar errors.
All of this can, of course, be corrected, but why are we even discussing the first and the last which obviously will never be used anywhere except, as I said above, as examples of carelessness? .     Jim . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 20:00, 24 February 2023 (UTC)
The "tern" issue refers to the left half of File:WLA 2023 Climate vs Weather.png. The slightly exaggerated viewer-number refers to File:Test - WLA Newsletter page.png. --Túrelio (talk) 19:29, 24 February 2023 (UTC)
Thank you @Túrelio, i will attempt to fix and re-upload the File:WLA 2023 Climate vs Weather.png as it is the most important of the set to me atm. The rest were created as test samples for pre-contest project pages. Can you please share an example of what the appropriate license should look like? I have taken note of the aforementioned by Jim and i'd like to avoid these errors going forward. Thanks Wilson (talk) 21:49, 24 February 2023 (UTC)

File:WLA 2023 Climate vs Weather.png has two photographs (possibly three if the tree is separate) and four pieces of art. The license for the image will need to be the most restrictive of the licenses on the underlying works. Thus if one of the photos is CC-BY-SA, you cannot license the whole image as CC-BY or CC-0. If one of the works has a permitted license other than CC, then life gets more complicated because some licenses are incompatible. Each of the six works except those that are your own work must be separately on Commons and must be listed separately in the file description, including any that are actually your own work. Each must be listed with its Commons file name, the Commons Username of the author, and the license under which you are using it. You may simply say "own work" for those that are. Thus:

Photo of baked clay: File:Baked clay.jpg User:Smith CC-BY
Photo of clouds : File Clouds User:Jones CC-BY-SA
Sun: File:Sun User:JaneDoe CC-BY-SA
Raincloud art: Own work
Africa outline - as above
Thermometer art - as above
License (in this case) must be CC-BY-SA

This is a work of a governmental entity of Florida, which places it within the public domain. It was mistakenly tagged with CC0 license, but should have been PD-FLGov. It was erroneously speedy'd as copyvio, but is ineligible for copyright protection. --dsprc (talk) 11:07, 24 February 2023 (UTC)

 Oppose The file description is, "R. Kelly's June 5th, 2002 Chicago Mugshot". That tells me that the image was taken in Chicago, not Florida, and therefore is not PD. I also cannot find the image on the named site. .     Jim . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 15:00, 24 February 2023 (UTC)

File:Charlotte Lindgren.jpg‬ undeletion request

The copyright holder (Art Gallery of Nova Scotia) is going to refer to this image when using the Release Generator. Since it has already been uploaded, it needs to be available to complete the submission. Remembereric (talk) 20:02, 28 February 2023 (UTC)

  •  Oppose There are two copyrights here -- one for the work of a living artist, Charlotte Lindgren, and one for the photograph. If the work is permanently in a public place as defined in Canadian law, then it is covered by FoP. That must be proven. If it is in a gallery awaiting sale, then we will need a license from Lindgren.
As for the license for the image, the gallery can refer to the file with the name above in its VRT request. The file will be restored when and if a free license from the image's copyright holder is received, read, and approved at VRT and, if necessary, a free license is received from Lindgren. .     Jim . . .

Reason: Commons:Deletion requests/File:Gereja Paulus 1948.jpg

Per COM:INDONESIA, Photographs published before 1971 would not be restored by URAA. This is a 1948 photograph of a church in Indonesia, the architect died in 1947 so the architecture is public domain in Indonesia and pre-1990 architecture is not copyrighted in the US. The photograph can be found at http://p2k.unkris.ac.id/id3/2-3065-2962/Gereja-Paulus-Menteng_70276_p2k-unkris.html I think it's reasonable to presume publication before the 1970s.

I hate to hear about a lot of well-intentioned work needing to be deleted, but if you took a frame from the copyrighted film (as opposed to the public domain trailer), then it's still a potential problem, and we can't keep it (for now). Well, it's just hidden from non-admin users really, not fully deleted. The film apparently becomes public domain in 2027, so it will come back eventually (a little under four years). So that work won't go to waste; we just have to wait a while to use it, once it qualifies as "free". Carl Lindberg (talk) 22:50, 2 March 2023 (UTC)

The first instance of this photo anywhere online seems to be from here, well at least from what I can see on Tineye. In addition, this photo of Monivong looks to lapse copyright, as Monivong died in 1941, more than 70 years ago. --TansoShoshen (talk) 02:37, 5 March 2023 (UTC)

 Oppose The subject, Sisowath Monivong, died in 1941. The uploader, Ravivaddhana, claims that he was the actual photographer of the image. While not technically impossible -- the image was at least 72 years old at the time of the upload, that is extremely unlikely, so we should treat it as an anonymous work. Cambodia's law is that anonymous works are protected for 75 years from publication. The URAA date for Cambodia is 13 October 2004, so if the work were first published after 1929, it still has a US copyright under the URAA. The photograph here shows him in 1938, looking very much the same as in the subject image, so I think we must assume that the subject image is from around the same date. .     Jim . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 11:39, 5 March 2023 (UTC)

Apologies, but I'm new to this whole thing. How can an image of Cambodian origin be in the public domain in Cambodia but not in the US? TansoShoshen (talk) 14:27, 5 March 2023 (UTC)
In the United States, we have a law called the Uruguay Round Agreements Act (URAA) that restored U.S. copyrights for many works in 1996. In Cambodia's case, the date for restoration as noted above was 2004 so a 1938 work would still be under U.S. copyright. The United States has a 95 year copyright term for published anonymous works that are still in copyright. Abzeronow (talk) 16:58, 5 March 2023 (UTC)

I guess these are old enough to be in the public domain. please temporarily undelete so that I can check. Hanooz 20:29, 5 March 2023 (UTC)

 Support The file descriptions tell us that all three are from The Museum of Contemporary Art in Tehran. That is not hopeful, as "Contemporary" certainly implies that they are very much too recent to be PD.

However the first one is "Attributed to Kamaluddin Behzad". Kamāl ud-Dīn Behzād lived c1455-1535, so that is safely PD. The other two are by "Farhad Shirazi" who lived in the sixteenth century, see https://ionarts.blogspot.com/2005/06/iranian-manuscript-painting-in-tehran.html. That's also safely PD.

Note that the file descriptions are in Farsi (I think) and the information above relies on a Google translation.

Good day for you all. On February 14, was deleted the image Telar_antiguo_para_confeccionar_espolines.jpg that I had uploaded from my user on Wikimedia Commons and that was linked to an article (Espolín) in the Spanish edition of Wikipedia. Apparently, it was included by mistake in a ticket (Ticket:2022120110007731) that was managed with a photographer to acknowledge that I owned the full rights to several images uploaded by me, and he did. But that particular picture was not from any photographer (that is why I do not know the reason why it was included in that ticket). I did not get to see the deletion notice on my upload page nor do I know who posted it, so I was not aware it was going to be deleted. If it is still possible, I would like to know what happened to it, what was the problem and if there is something that can be done.

@Jameslwoodward, I did search on Google but I am not satisfied if these hits would help in establishing notability on any local Wikipedia. If this is not promotion and undisclosed COI editing, then what it is? That's what makes me stand with two admins who deleted it as F10. I'd a bit however incline it being deleted under G10, because of the linked Wikidata entry that has been created for advertisement only given the nature of the "username" Nimarto. ─ The Aafī (talk) 15:43, 3 March 2023 (UTC)
He's an artist. He has had several gallery shows. Gallery shows are hard to get, so his works must have some traction in the art world. Any entry for an artist is naturally an advertisement of his work, so I don't see that as a negative. .     Jim . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 13:48, 4 March 2023 (UTC)
Well, you have a point but neither is Wikidata a place of "self-promotion" nor is the "Wikimedia Commons" its hub. I would gladly approve of any images of this or any other artists which are genuinely uploaded by constructive editors but if every other artist begins using Wikimedia Commons for "self-promotions", we lose our educational goal.

Picture was published in a draft and I was working on getting full permission by the copyright holder.

As a previous UDR demonstrated, the uploader was unreliable as far as dates so this may not be a 1900 photograph, but I'd like to get a better idea on the actual date of this photograph. Abzeronow (talk) 16:18, 4 March 2023 (UTC)

 Oppose Paul Hennig, July 16, 1874 in Frankfurt (Oder) ; † June 28, 1930 in Munich. He could be 26 in this image. He might even be 46, so maybe this is a little premature. .     Jim . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 19:28, 4 March 2023 (UTC)

Hi:

Reason: Commons:Deletion requests/File:Les hordes « barbares » de Crocus pillent le Languedoc (Gravure de Ferdinand Pertus, XIXe siècle).jpg

Author died in 1948 so this became public domain in France on 2019. File name says it's a 19th Century work so it should be public domain in the US. Abzeronow (talk) 17:05, 8 March 2023 (UTC)

 Comment It's basically this image except without the frame, in worse quality and without a proper source (file mirrored here). It's most likely not from the 19th century (Pertus was born in November 1883 and would have been 17 at the end of the year 1900). This page suggests it is one of a series of images created in the period from 1925 to 1940. --Rosenzweig τ 08:35, 9 March 2023 (UTC)

    The copyright owner is the photographer, not the person on the picture, unless a written contract was signed between them. Yann (talk) 20:01, 11 March 2023 (UTC)
    I am the owner in the photo, I did the shoot at home with my personal camera with the help of my boyfriend. The photos are like mine and nowhere else does it appear to be someone else's, so the arguments are not valid because there is no other owner. Okevony (talk) 20:14, 11 March 2023 (UTC)

It is difficult to believe anything you say. That is particularly the case since, except for the false claim in the file descriptions, you have not said who the actual photographers were.

Also note, as Yann said above, that owning a digital or paper copy of a photograph means nothing. The actual photographer is the only person who can freely license a photograph unless he has given a written free license to someone else. Although professional photographers routinely give limited licenses for their work that allow the subject to use the image for publicity, they very rarely give a license that would allow the subject to freely license the image to others as required here.

As I noted above, the one image has EXIF saying that Marco Torelli is the photographer. Torelli is a professional photographer (see https://www.marcotorelli.com/) and it is unlikely that his name would be in the EXIF unless he actually took the photo. That means that in order for the image to be restored to Commons, Torelli himself must send a free license from marcotorelli.com using VRT. The other image appears on a web site with an explicit copyright notice.Therefore, in that case also the actual photographer must send a free license. .     Jim . . .

 Oppose The first image. It has a prominent photographer's watermark and came from a site that is no longer available. The image was uploaded by Darwin, who is an experienced Admin, but no license review was done, so our rules don't let us keep it.

 Neutral The second image is OK from a copyright point of view, but was taken with the camera angled up, so the buildings are falling toward the center. I don't think it does us any credit. .     Jim . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 22:21, 12 March 2023 (UTC)

@Jameslwoodward Thanks for the ping. The image I uploaded came from 500px, where it was licensed under CC-BY-SA-3 by the photographer, as can be seen here. There are no copyright issues with the photo itself, it can be restored if it's considered to be De minimis. Darwin Ahoy! 09:45, 13 March 2023 (UTC)

I own the rights to this image. I think it was marked for deletion because it's used on my Facebook page? I would like it undeleted. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Elliotnadeau (talk • contribs) 17:36, 13 March 2023‎ (UTC)

 Oppose First, without categories and with a very commons name, this image is useless. Unless this Craig Thomas is significant, the image is out of scope.

Second, when you uploaded the image, you claimed that you were the actual photographer. Now you say, "I own the rights to this image". If you were the actual photographer that would, of course, be true, but saying it as you did suggests that you were not the actual photographer. What is the case? .     Jim . . .

Hi Jim - responding here as well since I figured out how to edit this section:

I'm sorry I didn't include categories - I would be happy to add those (this is my first time uploading media). Craig Thomas is the noteworthy creator of How I Met Your Mother, a famous American television show.

User Rsuvnaarrt uses a absolutely wrong argument, to delete my file. He claimed my work as his own, to affirm the delete request. This picture is my own work, i have the original and first picture in my own camera roll. This ist absolutely wrong. You should rename into Deletepedia.

"Its my upload and I don't want to have the picture up here anymore. Rsuvnaarrt (talk) 23:13, 4 January 2012 (UTC)" <- that is ansolutely wrong!

Hello,

This file has been deleted with the following motive: (Media uploaded without a license as of 2023-03)

However, I do not understand since this file has been handed over to me from the photograph herself.

Screenshot of conversation with the photographer to allow usage on Wikipedia

I'd like to request this photo to be brought back to the Wikimedia Commons.

Thanks,

--LBaisson (talk) 11:01, 13 March 2023 (UTC)

 Oppose First, a license "to allow usage on Wikipedia" is not sufficient. Commons and Wikipedia require that images are licensed for any use by anybody anywhere, including derivatives and commercial use.

Second, since LBaisson is not the photographer, policy requires that the actual photographer must send a free license using VRT. .     Jim . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 14:52, 13 March 2023 (UTC)

Ok, thank you for these explainations.
Would it solved the two issues that you raised if the photographer send a free license using VRT? Or would it still be needed afterwards that she present a license for Commons use somehow?
Thank you LBaisson (talk) 18:18, 13 March 2023 (UTC)
When she sends the license to VRT she may say either that she gives the license for File:Portrait de Roxane Bret by India Lange (2021).jpg or she may name more works as well. .     Jim . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 18:44, 13 March 2023 (UTC)

LBaisson, if and when India Lange sends a free license using VRT and it is read and approved, the image will be automatically restored without further action on your part.

 Oppose Actually its shape, like an inverted golf tee, is unusual and it has decorative bands at intervals.

  •  Support I've looked through the images of industrial chimneys like this one that we have, and I've found both these bands and the broadened base in several other chimneys as well. My conclusion is they're not decorative, but functional. The broadened base is more pronounced here than in other chimneys, but that's not enough to be above any TOO in my opinion, not even in the UK with its notoriously low TOO. --Rosenzweig τ 08:56, 18 March 2023 (UTC)

✓ Done: The arguments brought forward by JWilz12345, King of Hearts, and Rosenzweig are convincing.

Please restore the following file: File:S._E._M._de_Peralta_-_1924.jpg

Reason: Hi, the present file depicts Manuel María de Peralta y Alfaro, who died in 1930. In c:Commons:Deletion requests/Files in Category:G. L. Manuel frères they say that any artwork made in france falls in PD after 70 years. Even if they had taken the photo the day of his dead it would still be in PD since nearly 23 years.

Thanks in advance

--Mito0504 (talk) 13:31, 16 March 2023 (UTC)

 Oppose per Rosenzweig's rationale in the DR. We know both of the Manuel brothers lived beyond 1952, this was not a collective work and it can't be restored to Commons until 2042. And also COM:France tells us that photographs are protected by the life of the author plus 70 years unless the author "died for France" which would fall under wartime extensions. Abzeronow (talk) 15:50, 16 March 2023 (UTC)
 Comment I would support the idea that the author is the studio, so it became PD 70 years after publication. Yann (talk) 19:27, 16 March 2023 (UTC)
AFAIK there are no corporate authors in French copyright law (while companies etc. may own copyrights, they are not authors). Some argued in the DR that the photographs were collective works (which would result in the "PD 70 years after publication" you mentioned), I and others argued against it. The deletion request was just decided for deletion per the precautionary principle because there was enough doubt if these are truly in the public domain. Are there any compelling new facts since that decision was made yesterday? --Rosenzweig τ 19:54, 16 March 2023 (UTC)
I definitely don't agree with the "collective works" aspect -- photos would virtually never fall under that (that's more for things like encyclopedias I think). The only argument to me is the anonymous one -- if credited to the company, then it's not credited to a particular individual. On the other hand, if it was a one or two man company, then that pretty much tells you who the author is anyways, and could be considered a pseudonym where the author become known (thus 70pma). In this case, the principals of the company all lived long enough that 70pma is definitely not satisfied. I know nothing of the company -- if they employed a bunch of other photographers, then the corporate credit does not necessarily mean one of those brothers took the photo, and I'd say it's anonymous. But if it was pretty much just the brothers who took all the photos for the company, I can understand the caution. Carl Lindberg (talk) 20:04, 16 March 2023 (UTC)
There's a lot of discussion about various aspects of the case in the deletion request. Specifically, one French court actually did declare photos to be collective works in two decisions from 2014 and 2017, but in such narrowly defined and precisely explored cases that one cannot IMO transfer these decisions to other cases if one is not a court. Even if some users here clearly would like to. As to what precisely went on at G. L. Manuel frères, we don't really know. We do know however that we have the credits of the photos to these two owners G. L. Manuel frères (the brothers G. L. Manuel), not usually to the studio as such. --Rosenzweig τ 20:28, 16 March 2023 (UTC)
OK, yeah. If they were credited to the brothers specifically, there is likely no way out, as they are probably considered joint works. And yes, there are probably extreme situations that a photo could be considered "collective", but that's not at all the same thing as a work for hire. Carl Lindberg (talk) 21:04, 16 March 2023 (UTC)

Kindly refer to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_sitting_judges_of_the_Supreme_Court_of_India. Clearly, all the justices have images on their Wikipedia pages which are from main.sci.gov.in The GODL-India tag is unreviewed in all of them. If Commons believes that GODL-India is not a fit tag for these portraits of government figures, then a new tag must be formulated. I, personally believe that there is no harm in using these images from a government website, nor do I think that these images used in such a fair manner would pose any objection by the government, hence we can consider them free to use. But, if, by the wisdom of Admins of Commons, such files are not free to use and must not be used on the platform, then the files must be removed from the pages of the sitting and retired judges of the Supreme Court of India which may well be over a 100. I rest my case. @Jameslwoodward: @Achim55: @Túrelio: @Ninetynine134: — Preceding unsigned comment added by MildGovernor (talk • contribs) 18:24, 15 March 2023‎ (UTC)

 Oppose The source page for this image, https://sci.gov.in/chief-justice-judges, isn't working right now, so I cannot look at the licensing on it. However, I know from experience that some Indian Government web sites are {{GODL-India}} while others have explicit All Rights Reserved copyright notices. Therefore, all of the generalizations made above are invalid -- we must take the images one at a time and it is entirely possible that some of them can not be kept on Commons.

Note please that "nor do I think that these images used in such a fair manner would pose any objection by the government, hence we can consider them free to use" is a Fair Use argument which might be valid on WP:EN but Fair Use is never possible on Commons because it is site specific. .     Jim . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 19:39, 15 March 2023 (UTC)

Try https://main.sci.gov.in/chief-justice-judges MildGovernor (talk) 04:44, 16 March 2023 (UTC)

The subject's image is available at the website. At the given link, click on Former Chief Justice & Judges → No. 209
And as for the free license, you are right that the Supreme Court's main website does not list any copyright policy. The closest we can find is the website of e-Committee of the Supreme Court, that is, https://ecommitteesci.gov.in/website-policies/ which too states that we must ask for permission in uploading any of its media files on this platform. I believe that Commons is very strict on its free use policy and any restrictions are not appreciated. Hence, you can delete images used from that site. But please also see to that https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_sitting_judges_of_the_Supreme_Court_of_India has all the judges' files uploaded from the Court's website on commons and nobody has ever taken any issue with that.
By all means, you can delete the images, but for once and for all please decide on a policy as it is tough to determine from which government website, we may upload content on Commons. This Deletion/Undeletion case is of the Court's website, first please decide for this and then for other websites as well or a clear policy. MildGovernor (talk) 16:27, 16 March 2023 (UTC)
As I noted above,there does not seem to be any consistent policy on Indian government sites, so it is not possible to generalize. As far as knowing what can be uploaded, it's fairly simple -- unless there is an explicit free license, you can't upload it. And as for all the images that you mention, we have almost 100 million images on Commons. I'm sure that at least 1% of them -- around a million images -- should not be here. .     Jim . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 18:45, 16 March 2023 (UTC)
I just found that a similar discussion was already made on commons about the exact same topic and the administrator decided that it is completely alright to use the GODL-India tag which is valid here and the images can be used. https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Yann&direction=next&oldid=324336724#Clarification_on_the_extent_of_free_use_of_Images

This is not the {{Cc-by-4.0}} license you erroneously purported and is not acceptable here.

The expanded terms are more problematic still, as, for example, "you must not incorporate any Content (or any part of it) into a logo, trademark or service mark" is also a restriction on derivatives.

This buddha seems to be an architecture instead of a sculpture according to the Chinese Wikipedia introduction, which says, 由莲花座到佛顶共分六层,底层为小佛堂,二至五层设有塑像及文字解说关于佛陀一生事迹。拾级盘旋而上可达顶层。/There are six floors from the lotus seat to the top of the Buddha.

Actually there were 2 images under that name. For the latest, it is quite a stretch to call this "not a statue", even if it is hollow. But the former is a general view, and it may be OK, depending of the wording of the law, and local court cases. Yann (talk) 15:13, 19 February 2023 (UTC)

As far as Japan's FoP law, which Taiwan's is very closely related to, some buildings can be considered "artistic works" rather than architectural. https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons_talk:Freedom_of_panorama/Archive_1#Hideyuki_Murata @JWilz12345: @Clindberg: Abzeronow (talk) 17:01, 19 February 2023 (UTC)
@Abzeronow: I won't comment on the matter as I am heavily involved on Taiwanese FOP ruckus made by the latest Taiwan Intellectual Property Office (TIPO) reply of December 2022. I won't oppose this UNDEL request, but I won't support either. See also w:zh:Wikipedia:互助客栈/其他#有关维基共享资源台湾全景自由问题一事. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 17:45, 19 February 2023 (UTC)

Hmm. I think there is a fine line here. I would hesitate to call the Statue of Liberty "architecture", even though people can go inside and climb the staircase to the crown. However the description above sounds like this is a Buddha museum, with five floors and exhibits inside. I think the divider has to be the purpose to which it is put, not the exterior shape, so I think this is architecture. The US Copyright office would agree,

"The Copyright Office may register a claim to copyright in an architectural work if the work is a humanly habitable structure that is intended to be both permanent and stationary. Examples of works that satisfy this requirement include houses, office buildings, churches, and museums. By contrast, the Office will refuse to register bridges, cloverleaves, dams, walkways, tents, recreational vehicles, or boats...." [USCO Circular 41, emphasis added]

Note that other countries, notably France, include bridges as architecture. The subject work is not, of course, in the USA, but I doubt that other copyright offices would see it differently.  Support .     Jim . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 15:12, 20 February 2023 (UTC)

Striked my oppose per comments by you and JWilz. Although as noted above, Japan (whose laws on this are similar to Taiwan) considered Tower of the Sun as an artistic work not a work of architecture but since our servers are in the US, we could go with The Copyright Office guidance in this case. Abzeronow (talk) 15:42, 20 February 2023 (UTC)

By only this file, I  Support, but by that batch? Then some files may involve public interiors, are Taiwanese FOP rules allowing em? --Liuxinyu970226 (talk) 02:48, 21 February 2023 (UTC)
If those public interiors can be considered as artistic works, then Taiwanese FOP rules does not allow them because the rule requires "outdoor". See [1]. Teetrition (talk) 04:11, 21 February 2023 (UTC)

Taiwan Intellectual Property Office ("TIPO"), the Copyright authority in Taiwan, thinks that Taiwanese FOP provision on artistic works can be applied to a work of both architectural and artistic nature. See 智著字第11260001910號. If this work is qualified for architecture in USA, I won't oppose my own request. But as per precautionary principle, it seems like the withdrawal of the request may be more secure. Teetrition (talk) 11:13, 3 March 2023 (UTC)

@Teetrition: are you sure? When I translated the second paragraph of the reply via Google Translate, it seems TIPO replied in negative (in exact GTranslate translation): According to Article 4 of the Construction Law, the so-called "building" refers to "a structure or miscellaneous work fixed on the land or under the ground with a roof, beams, or walls for personal or public use." The inquired works of both architecture and art, if they belong to both "architectural works" and "art works" according to the aforementioned provisions, are still subject to the restrictions of Article 58, Paragraph 4 of this Act. It may not be reproduced specifically for the purpose of selling its reproductions (For example: use it as the subject of photography or take key photos, make postcards for sale).
As a consequence of this latest TIPO reply, as well as the copyright agency's affirmation of their stricter December 2022 input overturning the 2018 and 2020 lenient inputs, I'd say  Oppose this restoration, as a "building" having both architectural and artistic embodiments, subject to non-commercial restriction at number 4 of Arricle 58. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 19:53, 8 March 2023 (UTC)
Perhaps this rule is an imitation of Japanese FOP rules? Japanese FOP also disallows commercial uses for buildings "that are artistic works", like the w:en:Tower of the Sun. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 00:09, 9 March 2023 (UTC)
@JWilz12345: Maybe I should clarify my position. I said Taiwanese FOP provision on artistic works can be applied to a work of both architectural and artistic nature. It means FOP provision on artistic works (instead of FOP provisions on architectural works), namely one cannot sell the copy of it, should be applied to works of both architectural and artistic nature. My apology for ambiguity and my poor English. Teetrition (talk) 00:57, 9 March 2023 (UTC)
@Teetrition: it is ok. At least things got clarified. By the way, I incorporated the important points of the new TIPO reply in COM:FOP Taiwan. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 09:59, 9 March 2023 (UTC)

I am writing to request the undeletion of a photo that was previously deleted from the platform. The photo in question is an original work that I created and uploaded myself.

Hello, I am working on project of USA stock brokers research. I have published many articles on my blog (Reddit) before and have decided to move forward with wikipedia.

 Oppose This is probably referring to File:IMG Portrait Olivier Bodart.jpg and File:Auteur et artiste visuel.jpg which are identical. I note that the two files were uploaded by Lucioleverte and Lacgelé , both of whom claimed the file was {{Own}}. I ran a CU and they are the same person. Given the sock behavior (a total of four accounts), I don't think we can Assume Good Faith. Therefore in order to restore one of these, we need a free license from the actual photographer. THere is no reason to restore them both. The second of the two has no useful information in the file description. .     Jim . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 13:55, 22 March 2023 (UTC)

Good afternoon. This file is the property of our family that we want to share. It does not violate anyone's copyright. Please undelete it. I really appreciate any help you can provide.--Мария Автономова (talk) 01:55, 23 March 2023 (UTC)

 Oppose In the file description you said both that you were the photographer (that's what {{Own}} means) and "This picture is from our personal family collection". They cannot both be true. Making false claims of being the author is a serious violation of Commons rules and may lead to your being blocked from editing here.

The file description says that the image is from 1980. Since the Ukraine law is 70 years pma (after the death of the creator), it will be under copyright until at least 2050 and longer if the photographer died after 1980. Note that owning a paper or digital copy of a photograph does not give you the right to freely license it. That right is held by the actual photographer or his heirs. In order to restore the image to Commons, the actual photographer or his heir must send a free license using VRT.

I note that you have uploaded the image to WP:UK. That may be the best place for it. .     Jim . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 12:50, 23 March 2023 (UTC)

File:Consuelo Jiménez de Cisneros.jpg Restauración del archivo

Buenas tardes: solicito la restauración del documento indicado ya que se trata de un documento aportado y autorizado por la propia Consuelo Jiménez de Cisneros para su uso final en el artículo de wikipedia. La fotografía es original y posee una autorización que fue enviada por dos vías:

En primer lugar, la envié yo y así consta en el nº de ticket: [Ticket#2023020110007097] y recibí una respuesta automática.

Posteriormente, la abogada de Consuelo Jiménez, también envió la autorización siguiendo las pautas que ustedes indican. El correo se envió el día 2 de febrero de 2023. Esta señora es mayor y no se maneja bien en la redes. Por esa razón envió la autorización por medio de su representante legal.

La respuesta automática que le enviaron contaba con el nº de ticket: [Ticket#2023020210018047]

Esta es la respuesta que le remitieron:

"Gracias por su mensaje. Me temo que las instrucciones que le han dado no son correctas. El permiso debe venir del fotógrafo en persona, o debe mostrarnos el contrato por el cual el fotógrafo le ha transferido la totalidad de los derechos de autor a usted. Solo el poseedor de los derechos de autor puede liberar una imagen con licencia libre.

Pueden hacer el seguimiento de esta información con el número de ticket: [Ticket#2023020210008156]

Esa fotografía está hecha con el móvil de la propia retratada, no la ha hecho ningún fotógrafo. Desconozco a qué fotógrafo debemos solicitar permiso. La fotografía esta autorizada por la representada en la misma a sí que les ruego restauren la fotografía.

Gracias.

Saludos cordiales

 Oppose The photographer and owner of the copyright is the person who actually pushed the button on the phone. The ownership of the phone is irrelevant. Therefore that person, the one who pushed the button, must send the free license using VRT. This image will be restored automatically, without further action by the uploader, if and when a free license is received, read, and approved at VRT. The current backlog at VRT is 7 days. .

Note also that permission for use on Wikipedia is not enough -- images on Commons must be free for any use anywhere by anybody. .     Jim . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 14:48, 22 March 2023 (UTC)

Hello, I am talking regarding the photo that you deleted. The photographer who did the photo its my close friend. We work on the same company. He gave me the permit to publish it whenever I want. Hopefully you can upload it another gain. — Preceding unsigned comment added by ‎ArtemKazar21 (talk • contribs) 15:00, 23 March 2023 (UTC)

 Oppose. Your friend needs to contact COM:VRT to verify that they are the photographer and that they want the photograph released under a free license. Abzeronow (talk) 15:53, 23 March 2023 (UTC)
 Oppose @ArtemKazar21: A permission to publish the image does not meet Wikimedia Commons licensing requirements. A permission to grant a license requires a written form which needs to be provided as an evidence. Moreover, at upload you claimed that you are the author, not your friend and you declared that you grant a free license.

We request to undelition, because Companions Opera is the owner of the rights of her logo. We might have made a mistake by not adding the original designer, which we will correct as soon the deletion is undone. The designer is Carlo Grift, from Dakota Design in Amsterdam. As a company we have bought all copyrights from this designer and from all photographers we have added to Commons earlier on. We apologise for any mistake made, but we are new to this.

The logo serves as the primary means of visual identification at the top of the article dedicated to the entity in question.

We hope to have due-fully fulfilled the undelition request and Look forward to hear from you. Regards,

Hi, following the recent news of Jacqueline Gold's passing, I visited her Wikipedia page and noticed it had a very old image.

I reached out to Ann Summers who had used a much more recent image of her on their website and requested permission to update this on Wikipedia, which was granted. Which included information of who owned the image and who originally took the image.

Following the flag that this may violate copyright rules, I then reached out to a representative at Ann Summers to send confirmation that this image was free to use, which I believe was emailed on Friday.

Is there anything else required to undelete this image?

Commons is not Facebook. Also, it appears very unlikely that this is a selfie, so the claim of {{Own}} is probably not correct. Making false claims of authorship is a serious violation of Commons rules and may lead to your being blocked from editing here. .     Jim . . .

Sorry, It seemed to me that the images in the tweets were free. Those tweets are free and won a science outreach competition. It was good to put all of the tweet winners together in a unique image. But if the inside images are not free I understand that of deleting the image. Sorry, I didn't know about it. One final question: If I created another image by putting those interior images in black... I could upload that image on the CC.BY-SA license, right?

Parkatu, txioen barruan zeuden irudiak libreak izan zirela uste nuen. Txioak libreak dira, eta zientzia-dibulgazioko txapelketa bateko irabazleak izan ziren. Egokia zen txio guztiak elkarrekin jartzea, saridun izan ziren txio guztiak irudi bakar batean ikusi ahal izateko. Barruko irudiak ez badira libre, ulertzen dut irudia ezabatzearena. Parkatu ez nekien horretaz. Azken galdera bat: beste irudi bat sortzen badut barruko irudi horiek beltzez eztalita... Irudi hori jar nezake CC.BY-SA lizentziarekin, ez da? Eskerrik asko.

 Oppose I see nothing at the named source that indicates that these are freely licensed. I see no educational use for a collection of images of links to tweets. .     Jim . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 12:54, 28 March 2023 (UTC)

Dobrý den,


tento měsíc jste nám zaslali fotografii našeho tatínka Vítězslava Welsche s kterým proběhl rozhovor v Kondici z prosince 2013/ leden 2014 a náhle tento měsíc bohužel zemřel.


Taťka byl spisovatel a fotografie pořízená vaším fotografem je skvělá a my bychom jí rády na wikipedii použily - https://cs.wikipedia.org/wiki/V%C3%ADt%C4%9Bzslav_Welsch


Dali byste nám prosím svolení k užití jeho fotografie na wikipedii ( foto viz. příloha)?

Bohužel bez Vašeho souhlasu nemůžeme fotografii na wiki vložit. Samozřejmě bychom uvedli autora fotografie (prosím napište nám jméno fotografa) a zdroj.


Děkuji za Vaši pomoc


Hezký den

Eliška Welschová

Kira Henson is my real name. I took this photo myself. It's a picture of MY own cats, and I can upload it if I want to. Most people have anonymous usernames on Wikimedia. That doesn't mean we don't have permission to upload our own pictures, if our real names are listed as the author. The only reason a user wanted it deleted is because he/she didn't want it entered into the Wiki Loves Folklore contest, and that's not fair. So please, restore it as quickly as possible, and don't let this happen again. --Most Helpful (talk) 03:33, 30 March 2023 (UTC)

Already done by Krd per VRT ticket. @Herbythyme and Polarlys: A gentle reminder that having a named author in the EXIF which does not match the username (especially if the username is a pseudonym) is not a valid reason for speedy deletion; at best, you can tag as {{subst:npd}}. -- King of ♥ 07:12, 30 March 2023 (UTC)
