- It's the english version of a sample of a tiny mushroom character made for Micology project on french wikipedia. This sample is actually used for the announcement of the opening of the project on the french wikipedia village pump.
- I would also pleade that there is a consensus amoung wikimedia projects communities to use small humoristic cartoons related to wikipedia or a wikimedia project, they are a part of what build and keep together a community. I could show you many of those images, being here for years on Commons and used a lot, and no one argue to get them delete : there is a long time consensus of that kind of usage. It helps releasing the pressure of wikimedia projects communities so that village pumps and discussion pages dont end being only trolling topics and ad hominem attacks.
- I do upload encyclopedic and usefull images, and edit images as a wikigraphist... and from time to time, i make a little funny character for the community. Some of my art worck has been translate into english, espanol, portuguese and russian, and used on those other sister projects.
- if the final decision is to delete it, please gimme a delay between that decision and the deletion, so that i can transfert my work on wikipedia.--Lilyu (talk) 06:42, 18 September 2008 (UTC)
- Keep : Commons is already hosting a large variety of images related to Wikimedia projects, including satirical cartoons, some of a very good quality. Please have a look at Category:Wikipedia french humour and related categories for an overview. le Korrigan →bla 09:01, 18 September 2008 (UTC)
- I would rather point Category:Humor & Category:Cartoons on Wikipedia. And point that one of my cartoons about wikipedia has already been used once to illustrate an article by a journalist about wikipedia and vandalism (and for once in french newspaper, it was explaining rather than condamning WIkipedia => who knows where the "educational purpose"'s limit start or end ). --Lilyu (talk) 11:10, 18 September 2008 (UTC)

- Added a working link to the Nara-image template on the image description. Why do you think this image might not be taken by an American photographer? They were allowed in Germany as late as 1938. -Nard the Bard 21:28, 18 September 2008 (UTC)
- The Office of War Information (OWI) was established in the Office of Emergency Management (OEM) by an Executive Order of June 13, 1942. The News and Features Bureau was established December 17, 1942, and the Picture Division formed one of four units within the Bureau. It received original prints from U.S. armed forces and civilian government agencies, allied governments and commercial news picture sources for distribution to other units of OWI. The OWI was terminated December 31, 1945, by Executive Order and overseas operations were transferred to the Department of State.

- A discussion at Commons talk:Derivative works appears to be relevant.[3] Walter Siegmund (talk) 15:14, 19 September 2008 (UTC)
- Delete Good grief. Just because a copyright graphic design is printed on to a can, that does not allow us to infringe that copyright. The copyright design does not look old, and we have no licence. Absent that, this is a clear copyvio, and indeed falls squarely within the speedy deletion policy. COM:CB#Product packaging. See also COM:CB#Trademarks for anyone who thinks that a trademark (or logo) cannot also attract copyright protection. --MichaelMaggs (talk) 20:36, 19 September 2008 (UTC)

This was uploaded as "copyrightedfreeuse". I changed it to the (much more likely) pd-ineligible. Comments? I'm not sure this qualifies as pd-ineligible, I'm not sure if it's in scope, and I'm not even sure it's a Homer burp. But I think it staying on Commons would be awesome. -Nard the Bard 02:15, 18 September 2008 (UTC)

Lacks permission - I could not find the statement "You can use the images of this page freely" on the source page, and the copyright page does not give any such permission.

This license is erroneous and contains misleading information. The copyright page to which it links says "Not all images are in the public domain; some images may be protected by the U.S. Copyright Law (Title 17, U.S.C.)". It does not say, as the template wrongly asserts, that "[images are] in the public domain unless other copyright information is given". United States images can become PD for several reasons, but hosting on this site, in and of itself, is not a sufficient PD rationale. Note that the Wikipedia version is being deleted. --ЭLСОВВОLД talk 14:04, 19 July 2008 (UTC)
- Delete Images tagged with this template are not established as images in the public domain since the Biographical Directory of the United States Congress does not provide the copyright status for most of the images posted to that site. That site's copyright notice says "Not all images are in the public domain" and, for any questions, contact the "U.S. House of Representatives Collection" and "U.S. Senate Historical Office." I contact both offices. The "U.S. House of Representatives Collection" replied "Images posted on Members of the House of Representatives and Members of the Continental Congress should have credit lines below the image on the Biographical Directory." (They are not for the images loaded into Wikipedia) The "U.S. Senate Historical Office" replied "It is a complicated issue." I'll continue to work with the House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate, but this license needs to be deleted. -- Suntag ☼ 14:59, 18 September 2008 (UTC)

Even if the seal was originally designed in 1686 or 1784 there has since been many different copyrigtable interpretations [4][5]. This particular one is copyrighted by vector-images.com and as such should be deleted. A scanned in original of any sufficiently old version would be PD-old but not a new interpretation is not. Lokal_Profil 16:02, 18 September 2008 (UTC)

That all vector-images.com images are copyrighted unless the design (here all possible interpretations of a description of an coat of arm/seal/flag) is explicitly made free by a national law? Sorry there is no law making US state flags and seals PD by default.

Author is unknown and could have died less than 70 years ago: PD-old doesn't apply. Pruneau 15:23, 26 May 2008 (UTC)
- I uploaded this on the assumption that Gallica files are PD. So far my experience with Gallica has been that whenever this isn't the case, text files are blocked with a warning that they cannot be downloaded for legal reasons, and image files are simply blanked. Mu 20:58, 26 May 2008 (UTC)
- Assuming this was a handout photo (it is autographed after all) it very well may have been an anonymous work (when have you ever bought an autographed picture that included the name of the photographer?) and French law presupposes that the name on the work is the intellectual property owner. "Authorship shall belong, unless proved otherwise, to the person or persons under whose name the work has been disclosed." [6]. The person whose name appears on the photo did in fact die more than 70 years ago. -Nard 21:10, 26 May 2008 (UTC)

I am not quite sure what to do about this image. It was kept after a deletion request. 10 minutes later Rama put a no source tag on it. When I reverted and removed the tag, he accused the deletion request of being essentially a popularity contest[8]. Surely this isn't allowed? (Incidentally I think my argument in the deletion discussion was quite clever, even if no one commented on it. French law presumes the author is the person whose name is affixed to the work, so in the case of autographed picture the name affixed to the work is the person in the photo). -Nard the Bard 22:02, 17 September 2008 (UTC)
- It is quite known that Rama applies rules and procedures as he likes. He lacks the courage to accept his own responsibilities, and would rely on the illusion that there is some bright line behind which they could feel absolutely protected. I reverted him. Yann (talk) 22:31, 17 September 2008 (UTC)
- This image has no author, and it is recent. Therefore, per standing policy, it must be tagged with nsd, as any unsourced image is. Deletion requests about undocumented images are irrelevant, it is not the question.
- I notice that Yann is furthering his pattern of provocative behaviour [9] [10] Commons:Deletion requests/Image:Alain fournier.jpg in his personal crusade against copyright that goes beyond Wikimedia projects and attempts to instrumentalise them. Rama (talk) 22:44, 17 September 2008 (UTC)
- French law presumes the author is the name affixed to the work unless proved otherwise. There is a name affixed to this work. Prove he is not the copyright holder. -Nard the Bard 23:04, 17 September 2008 (UTC)
- And independent from that I do not think that {{No source since}} is appropriate in this case as the source link is provided to Gallica at the Bibliothèque Nationale and the author is simply unknown or, as Nard the Bard has pointed out, Eugène Gigout is technically the copyright holder in this case. --AFBorchert (talk) 23:21, 17 September 2008 (UTC)

- Nard the Bard, you are acting in deliberate bad faith, not towards Commons, but towards French law. How could the subject of the photograph be the author, in a photograph of 1910? Rationals are not supposed to be lame excuses, they are to be, you know, true. Your behaviour is reminiscent of the worst of what can be seen with Fair Use in the Wikipedias that autorise it.
- AFBorchert, the nsd template is used to request a source or an author. Here, the author is not given. It is not my fault if the template is named like this.
- Yann, as for "applies rules and procedures as he likes",
- I do not like deleting images. I would like to keep as many images as possible. The problem is the images we cannot keep. I am applying rules as I dislike.
- I am not the one who's been desysoped from his home project for abuse of admin right [11][12], nor have I been unilaterally restoring deleted images uploaded by me on Commons Commons:Deletion requests/Image:Alain fournier.jpg. I refrain from taking decisions about the matters in which I am involved, and I am not furthering an agenda [13]. If you see what I mean.
- This image is part of a general pattern of activism for our acceptance of works of unknown status older simply if older than 70 years, in the framework of a campaign to bend and game copyright laws that goes well beyond Wikimedia projects, and for which Commons is being intrumentalised. For this, people like Yann are willing to deliberately upload undocumented photographs, and fight any questioning of the copyright status of offending images by
- gaming licence templates: for instance, stating simultaneously "the author of the image has been dead for over 70 years" and "author unknown" (!)
- changing nsd tags into delete tags, effectively changing the question from "who is the author of the image" into "hey buddies, do ya wanna keep that picture"; some images are then "voted" for keeping without their status being known even after supposed scrutiny! (the problem is not so much the "popularity contest"; it is that a question is being asked, left unanswered in complete disregard for rules, and people satisfy themselves with that)
- vote for keeping offending images by arguing precedents, kept images then constituting a corpus of images of unknown status that serve as precedents, in a vicious circle.
- What is at stakes, here, is the highjacking of respectable but naive sentiments that we want images by a politically motivated minority. There is a very deliberate and calculated attempt to induce Commons into acting irresponsibly with images between 70 and 170 old. If some people can seriously argue that an author that they do not know has "probably been dead for over 70 years", what stops them from uploading random contemporary images as "probably under a Free licence"? What next, Fair Use on Commons? This nonsensical subversion has to stop. Rama (talk) 07:16, 18 September 2008 (UTC)

- The French National Library (BNF) has a very strict rule on copyright issues. The BNF doesn't publish anything without mentioning the author if it is known, and without carefully checking the copyright status of a work. So you pretend that you know better than the BNF what is the copyright status of their work? That you know better than the BNF what copyright rules should be apply to this image? You are just making yourself ridiculous.
- The problem is your crusade against orphan images, not mine. The problem is your aggressive behaviour towards almost everybody. Rama, you should restrain yourself to subject you know. Here you don't know what you are talking about. Your attacks against me on completely unrelated subjects do not prove anything.
- You are not even consistent with yourself. There are thousands of orphan works on Commons. Picking a few images here and there won't lead you anywhere. Yann (talk) 11:36, 18 September 2008 (UTC)
- Very interesting how the strict policies of Commons about copyright become "[my] crusade against orphan images" in your mouth. Orphan images do not belong on Commons, and that has nothing to with me.
- The so-called "completely unrelated subjects" are an answer to your contention that I "appl[y] rules and procedures as [I] like"; coming from you (sanctioned abuser of sysop rights on fr:, further abusing your sysop rights on Commons), that accusation is especially funny.
- That the BNF be serious about copyright does not warrant tagging an image as "author unknown" and "author dead for over 70 years" simultaneously. It must be possible to verify and check licences and their rational. Putting such incoherent and deceptive rationals prevents these checks, but also shows how you think only in terms of lame excuses and wishful thinking, rather than truth and solid facts. Rama (talk) 12:04, 18 September 2008 (UTC)
While I generally agree that such recent photos are most problematic if we can't provide evidence for the work being PD (such as unknown author), I think in this particular case we may keep the image. If the Bibliothèque Nationale de France says "Copyright:domaine public", I consider that sufficient, even if I don't know how they determined that. (Click on "Full record" (top-left) here to see that statement.) Like the U.S. Library of Congress, I consider the BNF a reliable source. If they say the image was PD in France, I won't second-guess them. (And since the image was published in 1900, it's also PD in the U.S.) Lupo 09:25, 18 September 2008 (UTC)
- Yes, that might be a case of "anonymous" author where we could not decide that the work is public domain, but where we could shelter ourselves behind the fact that the BNF says so ("so sue them"). I would be agreed with that, but with three caveat:
- 1) the image must be properly documented to reflect the actual reason that makes us keep it. "The author, whom we do not know, is dead for over 70 years" is pure non-sense. We should have a PD-because or PD-BNF template for such cases
- 2) there are cases where an institution similar to the BNF will tag as Public Domain works that clearly cannot be public domain. I am thinking of if the photographs of the Scharnhorst. The present case is not akin, but critical distance must be kept.
- 3) images kept for this sort of reason must not be used as excuses to keep about anything. That joins point 1).
- And in general, the state of mind must be to find the actual copyright status of the images, not make up lame excuses. Rama (talk) 09:37, 18 September 2008 (UTC)
- I agree about the BNF. Their digitization people are very concerned about copyright and I think we can rely on them. I've been in meetings with some of these people and they kept emphasizing their conservative approach to copyright issues. This is in contrast to some of the Eastern-European national libraries. One digitization guy from there told me that the unofficial slogan of his department was: "We break the law, for your convenience" :) Haukurth (talk) 10:41, 18 September 2008 (UTC)

- Abuse of French law? I want you to retract that. You have said, and I quote "According to law X (paragraph X1, section X2) of country Y, works which fulfill condition Z are considered to be anonymous. Since this work was publisher over 70 years ago, since it fulfills condition Z, and since country Y exercises a copyright term of 70 years after the work was made available to the public if the author never disclosed his identity, this work is now in the public domain". Now either fill in X, Y and Z, or delete this image. But stop the wishful thinking and petty accumulation of irrelevant personal appreciations. Rama (talk) 13:28, 22 August 2008 (UTC)Commons:Deletion requests/Image:Konigstein81.jpg What does this mean? Huh? It means find out what the relevant law regarding presumption of authorship and anonymity and apply it. Ok buster. I found the law. French law presumes the name signed on the work is the author. PERIOD. There is a name signed on this work. That legally makes him the author under French law. French law further says that this is the presumed author "unless proven otherwise". So now you who want to delete this, prove the signature on the image does not belong to the owner of copyright. Go ahead, prove it. -Nard the Bard 18:20, 18 September 2008 (UTC)

- Everyone take a deep breath; let's focus on the image rather than on your dislike of each other. I don't know about the law that Nard is citing (I'm guessing it was designed for paintings; I find it strange that it would apply to photographs too, but that wouldn't be the first time French law is strange). However, I'm more than happy to trust the BNF with this issue: they know their stuff and they are careful about copyright.
