 Delete, contains a logo {{Copyright by Wikimedia}}, with no OTRS permission given. Since the copyright status on such images are unclear (hopefully this will get fixed), they should be removed, since they are considered as non-free. See Commons:Deletion_requests/Image:Firefox_1_5_0_3.png. Diti (talk to the penguin) 01:57, 21 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Keep The logo is de minimis I think, but I can see how that is debatable. Since the photo was taken in a public place, privacy rights do not apply either (no expectation of privacy). The computer screen could certainly be blanked of course, but I don't think there is any good reason to delete the entire picture. Carl Lindberg (talk) 01:13, 26 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

 I withdraw my nomination Because of WP:POINT. I've been told that this kind of behavior, even though it's intended to help, is against the projects' development. I'm sorry for that, I will learn of my mistakes. Howdy! Diti (talk to the penguin) 15:52, 28 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The image description says that it's under copyright to TerraMetrics and that they've given permission, but there's no OTRS ticket. Additionally TerraMetrics is the supplier of ocean imaging for Google Earth- judging from the crosshairs and the placemarks, this is a Google Earth screenshot and thus under copyright.

Image is practilally identical with: Images 1465 and 1466, discussable value because the name of flower is missing—Preceding unsigned comment added by Karelj (talk • contribs) 15:24, March 9, 2008 (UTC)

Just because the flower is not identified does not mean it is without value -- one doesn't have to be a botanist to contribute information to Wikimedia. Other users are welcome to be bold and identify them, should they recognise the flowers. As for similarity to the other photos: I am open to discussion of which is the better-quality image, but note that there are many images which are otherwise identical except for a slight crop there, some tone adjustments there, or shifted an inch to the side. For reference, the similar images are:

Just because the flower is not identified does not mean it is without value -- one doesn't have to be a botanist to contribute information to Wikimedia. However, in this case, it appears that the flower is generally identified as a Viola. As for similarity to the other photos: I am open to discussion of which is the better-quality image, but there are many images which are otherwise identical except for a slight crop there, some tone adjustments there, or another inch to the side when the photo is taken.

It was meant to be disturbing because of the severe nature of this act. If any of the UN organizations owned this image then it is clear for PD usage as I understand the the policies.

Obviously not a free image since it's copyrighted by the uploader, or so the image says. In all likelihood, if the image is official, and there is no proof that it is, copyright is owned by Darebin City Council. The image is a derivative of the council's official logo, which can be seen at http://www.darebin.vic.gov.au As such, it seems to be a copyright violation. Even if the uploader is a member of the committee, as he says, he can't assert copyright, as he has done in the image, because it breaches council's copyright. --AussieLegend (talk) 07:49, 21 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

derivative of a copyrighted image --Caranorn (talk) 17:44, 23 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

[Note—I have added this page to the deletion requests page as it appears the nominator neglected to do so back when they nominated the images in July. —Psychonaut (talk) 15:53, 21 September 2008 (UTC)][reply]
  • I have asked the nominator to indicate why he believes the images in question to be non-free. So far he has offered no proof for that they are "derivative[s] of a copyrighted image", and furthermore merely being under copyright does not mean the images are not free. —Psychonaut (talk) 08:43, 23 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    • Good question, wish you had asked me in July (note I asked an admin in July whether I had followed correct procedure, sorry seems something went awry). I just did a rapid websearch and found the following link [10]. Our image dates to 2006, theirs to 2005 it seems (has to be verified of course), I think there can be no doubt that ours is a derivative of theirs. Of course it could be that both are derivatives of the Album des Pavillons, but that would not make this less of a copyright violation. It has to be assumed images on FOTW are copyrighted and therefore unfree unless a specific image was released otherwise.--Caranorn (talk) 09:31, 24 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
      • Keep. I would be stunned to discover that FOTW owns the intellectual property rights to the Civil Ensign of Luxembourg. They may well have made a particular electronic version of the ensign (and possibly issued a copyright claim to that image) but ultimately the images listed above are derived from the original design which may, or may not be copyrighted (probably not I would guess). As it stands there is no evidence of a copyright violation and there is plenty of evidence of various parties making copies of the Civil Ensign of Luxembourg with any other party seeking legal sanction against them. 87.113.25.22 13:06, 28 September 2008 (UTC) Oops - didn't realize I was not logged in.

Wouldn't it be better if all wikipedia articles regarding national basketball teams include official logos, instead of blurry ripped-off-the-web images? User:Alexgizh (talk) 17:23, 26 September 2008 (UTC+2)
    • You can use the "edit" tab at the top of the image page, and edit it like any other article, putting the tag under the copyright license. I just did for this image. As for other logos, sure we'd like them if possible, but Commons absolutely requires a free copyright license (unless there is no copyright by virtue of being expired or ineligible), even for situations where trademark would seem to be more important. For local wikipedias which allow "fair use", then these logos could be uploaded there (such as to the English Wikipedia directly), marked as copyrighted and with a fair use claim (see en:Wikipedia:Logos), but those cannot be uploaded to Commons itself (unless you can find the copyright holder and get a similar copyright license, see Commons:OTRS). Carl Lindberg (talk) 16:10, 26 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Deleted. As an employee it is highly unlikely that the artist owns the copyright. It will be owned by the employer company, and needs a proper release by OTRS. MichaelMaggs (talk) 17:29, 30 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

 Keep, but fix attribution, as it is an obvious copy of the en-wiki PNG original. (If we have the PNG on commons as well, one of them can go). It is still usable in some contexts, so the quality is good enough, and there is no copyright issue (frankly this is PD-ineligible really). Unused is not a reason to delete.

German poster for a U.S. movie - no details on publication given, but if it's a German work (i.e. if it was first published in Germany), then it needs to be PD there, not just in the U.S. dave pape (talk) 20:27, 21 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The movie and poster were released in 1927, 81 years ago, and I believe that would fall under the license below. Please note that there is no copyright shown on the poster which was essentially a German reproduction of similar American posters.

Deleted as German law applies as long as we have no proof that this is a derived work of an earlier US publication. {{PD-EU-no author disclosure}} does not apply here as no research was performed to find the artist's name. Some of these artists are well known even if they are not named on the posters, see Peter Pewas, Willi Laschet or Adolf Bender, for example. And some of these posters are even unique, i.e. they were comissioned and used by just one movie theatre. --AFBorchert (talk) 07:53, 10 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
