File:Regency Flag of Simeulue.jpg

per in this disscusion The primary issue is that there are no official provincial flags of Indonesia, making these representations fictional or entirely fabricated. The authenticity of these flags is highly questionable, as some originate from websites with copyright notices, while others are falsely labeled as "own work" despite being based on provincial shields. Furthermore, according to Template:PD-IDGov, there is no copyright infringement for the publication, distribution, communication, or reproduction of state emblems and the national anthem in their original form. It is unclear if transforming a state shield into a state flag aligns with this principle, and I would argue it does not, as many of these flags are fake or derivative works that may already be copyrighted. Therefore, these images should be deleted due to being out of scope (OOS) and potential copyright violations (COPYVIO), with the primary concern being their likely infringement of copyright.

Hmm... this is interesting. You here seem to be emphasizing the claim that I am committing copyright infringement. To be honest, I made this dossier based on File:Lambang Kabupaten Seruyan.png taken from the regency's official website, and only added a background based on this photo source: [1] [2], This kind of flag was actually adopted in the Regency, but I think the photo is indeed an unreliable primary source. Regardless, I think adding {{Extracted from}} is a wiser choice than deleting. Fazoffic (talk) 04:16, 26 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Fazoffic: IMO, instead of {{Extracted from}}, {{Attrib}} seems to fit better. Ckfasdf (talk) 20:37, 9 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

For further information, please see my comments in the related discussion. Fazoffic (talk) 04:29, 26 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I will quote another user's comment that may explain this,

This is not true, Government Regulation No. 77 of 2007 outlines general guidelines for regional coat of arms and flags, covering provinces, cities, and regencies. According to Article 6.1, regional flags must be square with a 2:3 ratio and feature the coat of arms.
Some provinces have specific regulations regarding their flags, which provide a legal basis for their status. Additionally, under Article 42(b) of Indonesian copyright law, any content derived from regulations cannot be copyrighted, meaning flags governed by specific regulations are in the public domain.
It’s important to note that, unlike regional flags, all regional coat of arms are regulated by specific laws, placing them in the public domain. Since provincial flags are simply the coat of arms placed on a square background, they are considered derivative works of public domain images. As such, anyone arranging the coat of arms on a square background can rightfully claim it as 'own work' and no copyright violation exists.
So the images should be deleted as OOS. As well as potentially COPYVIO. The main reason here being that it's pretty likely they are COPYVIO though.
According to COM:OOS, Files are considered within scope if they are media files in an allowable free format, freely licensed or in the public domain, realistically useful for educational purposes, and do not contain only excluded educational content. The images in this deletion request meet these criteria, as they are media files, freely licensed or public domain as on my comments mentioned above, and serve an educational purpose by representing regional flags per COM:INUSE.

per in this disscusion The primary issue is that there are no official provincial flags of Indonesia, making these representations fictional or entirely fabricated. The authenticity of these flags is highly questionable, as some originate from websites with copyright notices, while others are falsely labeled as "own work" despite being based on provincial shields. Furthermore, according to Template:PD-IDGov, there is no copyright infringement for the publication, distribution, communication, or reproduction of state emblems and the national anthem in their original form. It is unclear if transforming a state shield into a state flag aligns with this principle, and I would argue it does not, as many of these flags are fake or derivative works that may already be copyrighted. Therefore, these images should be deleted due to being out of scope (OOS) and potential copyright violations (COPYVIO), with the primary concern being their likely infringement of copyright.

Wikipedia is an organization that upholds law and objectivity and is usually kind to those contributing to its development. It is not enough for someone to have a suspicion, denial, or belief to block someone. One must demonstrate: (1) that someone's action is illegal; (2) specifically indicate which legal norm is being violated (this norm must be cited); (3) state what formal and minimal documents someone must present to be able to publish a given work, to convince the super editors. Otherwise, deleting someone's contribution to Wikipedia's development is an abuse and an act of violence by the super editors. Actions that have the characteristics of harassing novice editors should also not be undertaken. Like the dewfall (talk) 17:16, 29 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

There are 2 reasons why I think this file should be removed:

Unless a source is provided that this logo was used as a flag, it is an interpretation of the logo and therefore not historically accurate.

File:Flag of Wallonie Libre.svg

Unsourced/fantasy flag. Although it is true that the central emblem was indeed used by the underground newspaper Wallonie Libre during the occupation period, there is no evidence that it was ever made into a flag or has any existence outside of the creator's mind. The movement has indeed used another flag since the 1970s (e.g. 1, 2) which we already have on commons in a separate file. Any uses of this file on Wikipedia are easily substitutable with one of the two other images and appear to have been added by the creator or a closely affiliated account. ((Brigade Piron (talk) 09:48, 26 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The flag has been built directly from archives of the website : Wallonie libre (La) (belgiumwwii.be), which contains lot of references of the red and yellow logo.

Really, I do not see why you want to delete this file. We have perfectly the right to build a modern version of the flag based on original documents.

I think the dissertation could be deleted as well as old images of the templates, but not the latest ones.

These are all images of the 2024 Paris Olympic mascot. Some are the mascot itself and others plush toys. In either case, these are derivative works of a copyrighted mascot.

Whpq (talk) 12:22, 26 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Some of these images are costumes of the mascot, those should be kept as per Commons policy (see "Commons:Derivative works#Isn't every product copyrighted by someone? What about cars? Or kitchen chairs? My computer case?"). Regarding the stuffed dolls, I think they should also be kept due to Commons:De minimis and Lack of Harm.--BugWarp (talk) 12:59, 26 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. A professional mascot costume is not a utilitarian object, and can be protected by copyright. It's much more akin to a sculpture with a person inside it than an article of clothing.

The stuffed toys are clearly covered by COM:TOYS; there's no ambiguity here. The toys are not de minimis (they are the primary objects in the photo), and "lack of harm" is not a defense. Omphalographer (talk) 15:14, 26 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I insist, the costumes can be kept per Commons policy (see for example Lyo and Merly), why should we go against it on the eve of the opening ceremony of the 2024 Summer Olympics?

And in many images, the toys are not the main subject, and even cropping the images wouldn't make for a proper use.--BugWarp (talk) 17:00, 26 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not convinced that those images are within policy either. Regardless - we don't make exceptions to copyright policy for special occasions. If anything, the fact that the Olympics are about to start is a compelling reason to remove images which may be copyright violations so that downstream users don't inadvertently use images from Commons which we can't guarantee are freely reusable. Omphalographer (talk) 17:34, 26 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep specifically the files depicting a performer in costume, as Commons has lots of precedent for keeping images of costumed performers (IE, Commons:Deletion requests/File:Spiderman and child.jpg and the dozens of categories of character cosplays).

Delete the toy images per COM:TOYS. Di (they-them) (talk) 09:05, 2 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I believe your referring to Commons:Copyright rules by subject matter#Costumes and cosplay, and specifically Present consensus is that "files that merely show people cosplaying" are acceptable.. However, in this instance, these are not cosplayers, but the actual official mascot costumes. -- Whpq (talk) 15:58, 2 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I think that there's really not any difference between a cosplayer and an official performer; both are performers in costume. I think that the phrase "merely show people cosplaying" can reasonably be extended to "merely show people performing in costume" because cosplay is just costumed performance by fans.

Files found with Special:Search/marcusburns1977

Past discussions about the DeviantArt user https://www.deviantart.com/marcusburns1977 (who seems to be the same person as User:GalaxyNite) have found that some of their images are based on questionable copyright claims (Commons:Undeletion_requests/Archive/2024-06#File:TabukGold.jpg concluded that there was significant doubt that the Deviant Art user actually owns the copyrights to the many images he has posted there) and that others were videogame screenshots (Commons:Deletion_requests/Archive/2022/01/13#File:Pz_III_N.jpg, a screenshot from WarThunder which Burns still falsely claims on DeviantArt to have Created on Blender - modelling & texturing time: 4 days.).

In Commons:Deletion requests/File:OTs-21.jpg (part of Burns' collection at https://www.deviantart.com/marcusburns1977/art/OTS-21-1022677814), GalaxyNite said they'd generated it themselves with the Midjourney AI but that I was free to nominate it for deletion if I could find earlier media which looked exactly like it - which I could, it was an existing photo which had been slightly edited (the brightness was lowered on the barrel and the magazine was copy and pasted into a loaded position) and then upscaled by AI. Commons:Deletion requests/File:KRISSKARD.jpg was also a minor edit of somebody else's gun artwork, AI-upscaled.

Most uploads in this search are gun and computer-part images have that same AI upscaled look to them. The others are:

Tank and plane schematics (which may be derived from video games again)
Black and white scientific footage like File:CloudChamberRadium226.gif and File:ImplosionShapedCharge.gif with no original source specified
File:Lost Horizons Shangri-La.jpg, described as an own work "oil painting" by Burns but looking like AI, again perhaps from a videogame
Military photos like File:AIM9AIM7AIM54Intrepid.jpg which Burns claims to have taken aboard an aircraft carrier
A complex scientific animation at File:LWR Meltdown.gif which Burns claims to have created, but has only uploaded at a very low resolution

Given the problems with this DeviantArt user's perspective on AI upscaling (taking in best faith, a belief that if they find a photo online, alter it slightly and AI upscale it, it becomes an AI-generated image and is no longer subject to copyright) and their false claims about wholly creating images which were actually derivatives of pictures they found online, I think a precautionary delete of all their content from Commons is probably appropriate.

File:Hungarians slavs vlachs 10th 12th.png

1.It is fake, it doesnt reflect the truth. For example, Transylvania already had a lot of Hungarian settlemets. Seethis image, which is referenced with a book from the Columbia University Press (Bóna, István; Translation by Péter Szaffkó (2001). The Settlement of Transylvania in the 10th and 11th Centuries. Columbia University Press, New York,. ISBN 0-88033-479-7. http://mek.niif.hu/03400/03407/html/54.html.) in article Transylvania. 2) This map is not neutral, it reflects serb nacionalist POV. The used source for this map was written by "historian" Jovan Pejin, who is a serb nacionalist, also the member of the Serbian People's Movement. He is famous over his anti-Croatian and anti-Hungarian statements. (like: "Croatians do not exist as a nation", January 25, 2004, "accused Hungarians, Slovaks and Romanians of "occupying" Serbian territory in Vojvodina since the 10th Century", and anti minority books like "Autonomija Vojvodine" -- Košmar srpskog naroda/Autonomy of Vojvodina- Nightmare of the Serbian people. Currently, he is having a trial for this. (initiated by minister Jovan Branislav Lečić) It has 0 reliable, neutral,verifiable sources. --ЛенинВладимир (talk) 22:05, 11 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

It is sourced work based on the book of historian Jovan Pejin and Wiki projects are here to present all valid opinions about various subjects. Other historians might have different opinion about that subject and nobody stopping you to draw a map that will reflect such opinions, but opinion of historian Pejin is a valid opinion as well. Also note that image "MagyarsInTransylvania.PNG" that you presented is completelly unsourced (I do not see where you found info that such map is "referenced with a book from the Columbia University Press"?) and also uploaded by known Hungarian nationalist user:Fz22. But, even so, these two maps do not contradict one to another since Pejin did not showed areas were Hungarians lived but only areas where Hungarians were in majority (which does not mean that they did not lived as a minority among Slavs as well). Here you can see also another map uploaded by another Hungarian user, which also show that Slavs lived in the entire territory where Pejin presented them: http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Hungary_b._10th_century.png As for historian Pejin, his political involvement is not relevant here - he is an professional historian-archivist (and he was also a director of the Archive of Serbia from 2001 to 2003: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&source=hp&q=jovan+pejin+archivist&btnG=Google+Search ), so he is a relevant person to present his opinion about historical subjects. I made this map according to the map from the book "Velikomađarski kapric" writen by Pejin, which is in fact very good book about history of Greater Hungarian irredentism and it is writen in very professional way without nationalist anti-Hungarian statements. Also, "www.hhrf.org" that you posted as a source against reliability of Pejin as a historian is an nationalistic Hungarian web site and thus we cannot trust to that site regarding statements about historian who wrote a book about history of Hungarian nationalism.

Comment Commons can contain childish images like this, but should not be used in Wikipedia (except for example to illustrate anti-Hungarian hatred), as it is extremely biased (or briefly 'false'), made by a well-known anti-Hungarian historian in Serbia (a Slavic country). Qorilla (talk) 22:31, 14 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Please answer these questions: 1. How exactly this image is "childish"?, 2. How exactly this image could reflect "anti-Hungarian hatred"?, 3. how exactly this image is biased or false?, 4. how exactly this historian is anti-Hungarian? (please quote any possible anti-Hungarian actions or statements that this historian might done or said and then we can analyse such actions or statements to see is he realy anti-Hungarian or Hungarian nationalists only do not like him because of historical facts that he presented and that do not support false historicist claims of Hungarian nationalism), and finaly: 5. how exactly the fact that somebody is from Serbia or Slavic country would determine is he biased or not? PANONIAN (talk) 15:29, 15 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Of course, you know the answer to these questions, so I write this for the readers who don't. This is a map which tries to prove that there were not many Hungarians living there in the early times, and therefore they should shut up outside the smaller-than-ethnic borders created after World War I. The area was populated by many people beforehand, including Slavs, but I guess it is a huge lie to show this map for the 12th century. You could draw one from the 8th century and write a hundred times Slavs on it, as Hungarians moved in around 900. So I can imagine that when they started to settle in the (sparsely populated) Carpathian Basin, there was not many of them in the first years.

I do not see why would somebody falsify a map to "prove that there were not many Hungarians living there in the 10th-12th century" when all historians agree that there were no Hungarians at all in that area in the 9th century. In another words, we do not have problem with historians who "want to prove that there were not many Hungarians", but we have a problem with Hungarian nationalists who want to prove that Hungarians "always" lived in all areas claimed by Greater Hungarian irredentist goal. Therefore, any historian that present any opinion opposite to this would be automatically attacked by Greater Hungarian nationalists. As for time period involved here, historian Pejin clearly say that it refer to 10th-12th century time period, which might not be the case for late 12th century of course, but it certainly could include beginning of that century. However, I clearly stated in the map itself that it is made according to the historian Pejin and that this map represent his opinion only, so I do not see a point of adjusting info in this map to other opinions. You can draw other maps that would reflect opinions of other historians. PANONIAN (talk) 21:22, 15 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

A shading according to population density would be very beneficial. Also I have seen quite a few maps, but none showed such a small extent. This is the minimal area that the Serbian nationalist historian (who is also involved in political topics as I see) was able to draw. Another childish aspect is that it puts "Slavs" on the map a dozen times, and colors uninhabited areas as Slav.

As I said, you did not proved that Pejin is politically motived in his historical work, so until you prove that, please refrain yourself from such accusations. As for map presentation, there are external sources with maps whose authors mark all these areas as inhabited by Slavs, see this: http://www.home-edu.ru/user/uatml/00000628/rumjancev/drevnieslavjane/rasselenie.jpg or this: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/0/0e/Slav-7-8-obrez.png or this: http://www.uncp.edu/home/rwb/slavs_map.jpg - there is nothing unique in that presentation. PANONIAN (talk) 21:22, 15 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

As there were no censuses that time, we can not know the exact ethnic configuration, but giving this map as fact is nonsense. You are right that the fact that one is Serbian, doesn't mean he is automatically manipulative, but this map is. I just wanted to say, it is no wonder why, if one sees where he comes from, and knows what the Serbian nationalism tries to push. Qorilla (talk) 18:44, 15 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

There were no censuses, but there are other ways to research population data from that time: data presented by various historians, archaeological research of graves, origin of place names, etc, etc. Of course, different historians might come to different conclusion from that data, but there is no single proof that opinion of Hungarian historians is right and oppinion of Serbian historians wrong. In fact, it is not a purpose of any Wiki project to determine who is right or wrong in any such dispute, but the true purpose of Wiki projects is to present all relevant opinions about all subjects, so let present to readers both, maps made according to Serbian and maps made according to Hungarian historians, so they will conclude for themselves who is right and who is wrong. PANONIAN (talk) 21:22, 15 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

This is a very heated and politically loaded topic, which does not belong to this page, so it's best to close it at this point, with the conclusion that commons can host images that are not universally accepted, as there is no NPOV criteria for media on commons.

Hey @Ikan Kekek @OrionNimrod, I also think it would be worth deleting these clearly incorrect maps. There’s no point in keeping them on the wiki.

As I can see, a prize-winning map has been presented as a counter-argument, so it’s unnecessary to keep the incorrect ones, especially since they clearly contradict the facts.

Files in Category:Flags of cities of Indonesia

per in this disscusion The primary issue is that there are no official provincial flags of Indonesia, making these representations fictional or entirely fabricated. The authenticity of these flags is highly questionable, as some originate from websites with copyright notices, while others are falsely labeled as "own work" despite being based on provincial shields. Furthermore, according to Template:PD-IDGov, there is no copyright infringement for the publication, distribution, communication, or reproduction of state emblems and the national anthem in their original form. It is unclear if transforming a state shield into a state flag aligns with this principle, and I would argue it does not, as many of these flags are fake or derivative works that may already be copyrighted. Therefore, these images should be deleted due to being out of scope (OOS) and potential copyright violations (COPYVIO), with the primary concern being their likely infringement of copyright.

Baqotun0023 (talk) 02:10, 26 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding these Cities and Regencies flags in Indonesia, I assure you that these flags are based on my research on official media that displayed these flags inside the regional government buildings. So these flags surely not fabricated nor fictional. I admit that only few regional governments in Indonesia have regulation about their flags, the non-official ones exist just because it's commonly used by previous officials. As you said, according to Template:PD-IDGov, there is no copyright infringement for the publication, distribution, communication, or reproduction of state emblems and the national anthem in their original form. It is clear and common in Indonesia if transforming a regional symbol into a regional flag aligns with this principle. The official flags of Provinces of Indonesia are displayed inside the Ministry of Home Affairs of the Republic of Indonesia.

Thank you for your concern and I hope these flags images not deleted.

thank you @M darmanto, because that's literally what i did, i do the research about the flag usage in the official building and then make the flag design in MsWord, although i'm not sure about the detail for some of them (the emblem ratio and base color of the flag), and i think yeah, most of the flags are rarely used in public.

I think we need to focus on each flag individually and focus more on fixing it. As I said in this discussion, I have been working with other people on FOTW itself to figure out if flags are real or not. There are other users in Indonesia who are helping to figure out what is going on. User:Zscout370 ^{(Return fire)} 08:17, 26 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

For File:Flag of Yogyakarta City.svg, the flag of the city can be seen at here and here. As for the coat of arms, we can see the information and regulations here. This will show that the file at File:5. Flag of Yogyakarta City.png is completely false and never existed (as we saw with the provincial flag regulation, the flag has to have one background color only). User:Zscout370 ^{(Return fire)} 08:27, 26 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Zscout370: FYI, Article 11(2) of Yogyakarta City Regulation No. 6 of 1979 ("Peraturan Pemerintah Kotamadya Daerah Tingkat II Yogyakarta Nomor 6 Tahun 1979 Tentang Penggunaan Lambang Kotamadya Daerah Tingkat II Yogyakarta") specifies that the background color of the city flag is light green. Btw, In general, the background color of regional flags is typically a single color. However, there are a few exceptions where two or more colors are used in the background. Ckfasdf (talk) 05:50, 9 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep In general, my comments are the same as in this discussion, but I'll rewrite them here anyway.

The primary issue is that there are no official provincial flags of Indonesia.

This is not true, Government Regulation No. 77 of 2007 outlines general guidelines for regional coat of arms and flags, covering provinces, cities, and regencies. According to Article 6.1, regional flags must be square with a ~~3:2~~ 2:3 ratio and feature the coat of arms.

Some cities have specific regulations regarding their flags, which provide a legal basis for their status. Additionally, under Article 42(b) of Indonesian copyright law, any content derived from regulations cannot be copyrighted, meaning flags governed by specific regulations are in the public domain.

It’s important to note that, unlike cities flags, all cities coat of arms are regulated by specific laws, thus placing them in the public domain. Since cities flags are simply the coat of arms placed on a square background, they are considered derivative works of public domain images. As such, anyone arranging the coat of arms on a square background can rightfully claim it as 'own work' and no copyright violation exists.

Therefore, these images should be deleted due to being out of scope (OOS) and potential copyright violations (COPYVIO)

According to COM:OOS, Files are considered within scope if they are media files in an allowable free format, freely licensed or in the public domain, realistically useful for educational purposes, and do not contain only excluded educational content. The images in this deletion request meet these criteria, as they are media files, freely licensed or public domain as on my comments mentioned above, and serve an educational purpose by representing regional flags per COM:INUSE. Ckfasdf (talk) 05:59, 9 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comment There was a similar CfD discussion in which the nominator's statement was essentially a paraphrase of the previous CfD. The subject matter is likewise comparable—this case concerns the flags of cities in Indonesia, while the earlier case dealt with the flags of provinces in Indonesia. Accordingly, the rationale for retaining the files in this nomination should be consistent with the previous discussion. That CfD concluded with a 'clear consensus to keep.' I would recommend referring to that prior discussion for guidance. Ckfasdf (talk) 13:16, 12 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
