No FoP for 3D works in Japan A1Cafel (talk) 03:27, 14 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]


No FoP for 3D works in Japan A1Cafel (talk) 03:27, 14 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]


The source for this image is Air Force Magazine, which is a publication of the Air & Space Forces Association, not the US Armed Forces. The photo is tagged as "Photo via Stan Piet", who could have been a jouranlist or other civilian. We really don't know. So we have no way of knowing if the copyright tag is correct.

The same applies to the cropped version, Göring Augsburg 1945-beschnitten.jpg. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 03:37, 14 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Voting keep on this - an important image, and it's going to be 70 years old.Deathlibrarian (talk) 07:04, 14 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Keep Caption on the 2015 magazine PDF linked above states "National Archives and Records Administration photo via Stan Piet". Stan Piet [1] is "an aviation photographer and historian" not quite old enough to have taken the original photo; apparently he got the photography from the US National Archives (en:w:National Archives and Records Administration) for use in the magazine. Göring was prisoner of the US military at the time of the photo. That it is a USGov work seems correct, and the mention of Stan Piet in the magazine is not an argument against that. -- Infrogmation of New Orleans (talk) 15:43, 14 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    That caption is actually on a different photo in the same publication, but it could apply to both photos. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 14:46, 20 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Comment Alamy, rather notorious for copyfraud when they can get away with it, states it is PD on their copy [2] "This image is a public domain image, which means either that copyright has expired in the image or the copyright holder has waived their copyright. Alamy charges you a fee for access to the high resolution copy of the image." -- Infrogmation of New Orleans (talk) 15:03, 20 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@(Oinkers42): I agree with the 2D works but the costumes surely fall under Template:Costume:

There is quite a lot of files from various disney parks at Category:Characters at Disney Experiences and so I believe those files should also be nominated unless the copyright concerns are specific to Japan. Sahaib (talk) 14:53, 14 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Leaning towards  Delete for the costumes. Most, if not all, of the characters in these photos are wearing full-body costumes which are more akin to wearable sculptures than articles of clothing. I don't see any compelling reason why these costumes wouldn't be copyrightable - they're certainly not utilitarian works, which is the usual argument put forth for why a costume is ineligible for copyright.

The uploader added the following comment on their talk page and on the talk page of the deletion request. I'm copying it here for clarity:

Dear Wikimedia administrator ‏Greetings,
‏My name is [‏sickahick], and I am requesting that the image in the article "Philosophy of Quantum Mechanics" on Wikipedia be retained. This image does not contain copyrighted content and includes the Wikipedia watermark. It has been published in compliance with all relevant copyright laws and regulations.
‏Details of the image are as follows:
‏- **Article Title**: Philosophy of Quantum Mechanics (one of the Persian articles on Wikipedia) ‏- **Article Link**: [Philosophy of Quantum Mechanics](https://fa.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/فلسفه_مکانیک_کوانتوم#:~:text=پیدایش_مکانیک_کوانتومی_در_آغاز,مفهومی_مناقشه%E2%80%8Cبرانگیزی_را_به%E2%80%8Cوجود_آورد.) ‏- **Image Description**: The image located at the bottom of the article, before the references section.
‏This article and its accompanying image provide highly valuable information for atomic resources and other related fields. It effectively explains and illustrates the theories and philosophical concepts of quantum mechanics. The included image significantly enhances the article's appeal and aids in better comprehension.
‏As this image adheres to all Wikipedia copyright policies and has been appropriately sourced, I kindly request that it not be removed.
‏Thank you in advance for your attention and cooperation. Sickahick (talk) 14:20, 14 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The issue at hand here is not whether these images comply with Commons copyright policy; it is that the images are meaningless. The backgrounds of both images are a jumble of mixed-up words and formulas like "Smany-roingers", "wave-particle intuality", and "Wave-Worldes inteprestion". These images do not convey any meaningful information about quantum mechanics or philosophy. Omphalographer (talk) 18:50, 14 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
This image holds significant meaning and should not be deleted. The cat depicted in the image represents Schrödinger's cat, a famous thought experiment in quantum mechanics that illustrates the concept of superposition and quantum indeterminacy. This philosophical idea is central to understanding quantum theory and has profound implications for how we perceive reality.
The presence of scientific equations and the Wikipedia logo further emphasize the connection between advanced scientific concepts and the dissemination of knowledge to the general public. By merging these elements, the image underscores the importance of making complex scientific ideas accessible and understandable. Deleting this image would mean losing a valuable representation of the intersection between quantum philosophy and public education.

Schrödinger's cat
please check this Sickahick (talk) 12:51, 19 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Have you looked at these images, or are you just repeating the prompts you gave to the AI? A picture of a cat sitting on top of a swirly blue box with the word "Wikipedia" on it does not even remotely invoke the concept of Schrödinger's cat (or Smany-roinger's cat, if we go by the text in the image), nor do the gibberish words and equations in the background make anything "accessible and understandable" - if anything, they do the opposite.
Creating good illustrations, especially of complex and/or abstract topics like these, requires thought and effort. In my experience, currently available AI image generators are not capable of doing this reliably. Omphalographer (talk) 18:44, 19 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This man is born in 1941, photo migh be dated 1940-1960. can not be own work of 2024. Original date? Author? Copyright status? Drakosh (talk) 05:25, 14 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Likely copyright violation. The photo is almost certainly a media photo and it is found in a lot of external websites. The copyright tag that states that it is a picture published befor 1929 it clearly wrong. Earthshaker13 (talk) 06:29, 14 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

However, since photos of other KTM motorcycles seems to have been uploaded with an authorization ticket (e.g. File:KTM 250 Freeride R.jpg), it may be worth to verify it there is a chance that authorization may cover also this picture. -Earthshaker13 (talk) 06:33, 14 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Uploader claims to be in the photo, no exif, PCP

Gbawden (talk) 09:38, 14 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Greetings,
What seems to be the problem with the pictures?
Someone made a page about my drag persona and I added these two pictures, as I am in them, I own them and have the rights to upload them. And being a visual artist, whose appearance is integral to the artform, I believe that having pictures like these is relevant to the article.
I hope that we can resolve this beneficially.

Files from the Kremlin's website by Tobby72

[edit]

All the files listed bellow, uploaded by User:Tobby72 from the Kremlin's website, have been taken by photographers from RIA Novosti or TASS agency.

As stated in the "Using Website Content" of the Kremlin's website, contrary to other files, those aren't free: "The present rules for using materials from this website do not apply to RIA Novosti photographs that MIA Russia Today is the copyright holder of, or to photographs the TASS News Agency is the copyright holder of, when such photographs are posted on the www.kremlin.ru website with an indication of the agency and author." --Titlutin (talk) 21:01, 14 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

List of files:

bad copy of File:East Corridor, First Floor. Mosaic in domed lobby at head of stairway leading to ground floor, with quotation "Knowledge is power." Library of Congress Thomas Jefferson Building, Washington, D.C. LCCN2007687120.tif MBH 21:03, 14 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

How is this a "bad copy"? It is completely normal that for NARA/LOC content we keep both a TIFF and a JPEG. - Jmabel ! talk 03:52, 15 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@MBH,  Keep as @Jmabel is correct. This category has over 244,000+ files related to TIFF files and their related JPG files, Category:LC TIF images with categorized JPGs - Ooligan (talk) 04:27, 15 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Jmabel files' resolution differs 10x times, it's not enough? Why we have many copies of files with 10x times worse resolution? MBH 08:56, 15 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
So by "bad" you mean "low-res". Thank you for answering my question. This should be overwritten with a higher-res version, but not deleted. - Jmabel ! talk 18:06, 15 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, especially since the image is MUCH clearer in the JPG file (the quotation "Knowledge is power" is sharper, for instance)! Shāntián Tàiláng (talk) 15:58, 16 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I have now uploaded a version of the JPEG that is the same resolution as the TIFF. - Jmabel ! talk 21:14, 16 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
But why it's needed if we can use TIFF file for any purposes? Why we need to have 2 copies of exactly the same image? MBH 12:11, 17 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Because for most purposes it is much more efficient to use a JPEG, but if someone wants to do derivative works it is best to start with the TIFF. We have at least hundreds of thousands, probably millions, of cases of this. If you object to this de facto policy, I suggest bringing it either to COM:Village pump or COM:Village pump/Proposals where it can be discussed in general. It is very unlikely that even most people with a strong opinion on this will see one particular DR. - Jmabel ! talk 16:49, 17 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
OK, I understand that this file will not be deleted, you can close this nomination. But I still don't understand: "it is much more efficient to use a JPEG" - why? If I use a file in 300px thumbnail in Wikipedia article, there will be a little preview image in article and it isn't needed to download full scale TIFF, so why not to use TIFF? MBH 21:07, 17 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I think it has something to do with how the mediawiki software processes these in terms of downsampling and sharpening, but I can't say I'm sure. Most of this was discussed 15+ years ago, and I don't remember the details, just the upshot. Someone else may be able to fill in more. - Jmabel ! talk 01:05, 18 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Keep notable individual in public domain image, that doesn't have high quality of sculpture (likely covered by FOP). Minimally, this should crop out the sculpture because of the value of the image in depecting the subject, Sadads (talk) 14:37, 6 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Works by Spanish sculptor Antonio Cruz Collad (1905-1962). His works are still copyrighted in its country of origin. Notice that I didn't included sculptures that were taken in public domain as FoP probably applies. His works would enter in the Spanish public domain in 2043 (notice that Commons:Copyright rules by territory/Spain says protection until 1987 was 80 years pma). The US copyright is more complex as it depends on the publication date, and many of these files doesn't give this information.
