Copyright violations, as the photo was originally taken from this site. The uploader claimed that it was his own work, as well as being a cousin of Angel Locsin. However, the statement written on this page appears as if the photo was taken by a fan who visited Locsin on location and not by a cousin as claimed by the uploader. The uploader is also a sock puppets/Gerald Gonzalez a suspected sockpuppet who is prone to uploading copyvio images on Commons and claim it as his own work. -- 114.198.145.132 13:28, 21 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I doubt the flickr uploader owns this image, nor the rights to release this image under a free license. See their album on flickr too. Kanonkas(talk) 12:12, 21 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Did anyone notice that in the image description, the photographer is identified as Andy Stuardo Lake, whereas the Flikr user (referred to as the author on commons) only did some retouching? Therefore, it should be deleted without a doubt, as the uploader is not the copyright holder of this image. --Tryphon (talk) 20:13, 14 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

I believe that the following media in category:UberOrbs are copyright violations. These images uploaded by Ninelvndeathtrap were probably not self made, because they are found on commercial sites, sometimes with better resolution. See also User talk:Ninelvndeathtrap#Authorship claims.

From what I have seen, the user has uploaded only scans and tagged all of them as CC and specified Scan/photo by: User:Henryart (who is owner of the original photo) or similar. All of the nominated pictures look like scans (have a look at the borders and you can see that it is a photo placed on a scanner) and I am unsure whether he created the depicted works himself or whether he did just scan images he physically owned.

This was neither made nor published (as far as we know) in Australia.

According to http://www.nla.gov.au/pict/pic_copyright.html , the Australian copyright term does not apply to works which were neither made nor published in Australia. So I think that it is a bit difficult to say that {{PD-Australia}} applies. Teofilo (talk) 12:27, 21 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

 Delete Frank Hurley died 1962. Source page gives permission for research and study only. /Pieter Kuiper (talk) 12:29, 21 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I am not so sure about what I said any longer. Actually the Australian law says that when someone leaves his country only for a short time, he should still be considered a resident of that country. So the country of origin of this picture is that of the creator of the picture, and one can assume that he chose the angle of the camera himself and asked somebody else merely to press the shutter. So perhaps the picture could be considered as "made in Australia" because it was made by an Australian during a short stay abroad. In connection with the US law, however, the work qualifies either as unpublished or published on the internet only since a few years ago, and therefore it is protected by the US copyright law. This is perhaps another item of works PD in their country of origin, yet protected in the USA. Teofilo (talk) 13:10, 21 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
And I am no longer sure if it makes any difference if a picture was taken abroad or not if it was taken before 1955. But there is still a copyright problem in the USA. Teofilo (talk) 14:31, 21 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
The US law applies to works made by non-US citizens as written in http://www.copyright.cornell.edu/public_domain/ (see "Never Published, Never Registered Works" and "Works Published Outside the U.S. by Foreign Nationals or U.S. Citizens Living Abroad"). An unpublished work made by an Australian national can also become a work first published in the USA if its copyright owner decides to do so. Teofilo (talk) 11:02, 22 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Read what you just said "An unpublished work made by an Australian national can also become a work first published in the USA if its copyright owner decides to do so." The works in question is published in Australia and not the US and the copyright owner is the one who decides not the US law. Bidgee (talk) 11:09, 22 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Yes he is the one who decides. That is why he says on the bottom of this page : If you wish to use it for any other purposes, you must complete the Request for permission form. "The offering to distribute copies or phonorecords to a group of persons for purposes of further distribution, public performance, or public display, constitutes publication." US copyright law. Merely saying "You may save or print this image for research and study" does not constitute a distribution for purposes of further distribution. So I am afraid it is not a publication. Teofilo (talk) 12:09, 22 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
It applies so that you can use the picture in Australia, but this does not make the picture free for use in the United States. Teofilo (talk) 09:54, 23 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
The image is from 1915. Tell us which section of American law would protect it. -Nard the Bard 13:17, 23 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
If posting on the internet is a publication : "Unpublished works created before 1978 that were published after 2002 = Life of the author + 70 years" ; If posting on the internet is not a publication : "Unpublished works = Life of the author + 70 years" : http://www.copyright.cornell.edu/public_domain/ Teofilo (talk) 23:14, 24 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Please stop trying to force US laws which do not apply in Australia and it's citizens. Bidgee (talk) 03:33, 25 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
There is a technical solution to discrepancies of copyright laws in different countries. Teofilo (talk) 08:10, 25 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
That is not a technical solution. This image is in the Australian PD therefore the only issue is you trying to force US law on to a photograph taken by Australian and possible in an Australian Territory (Part of Antarctica is part of Australia). Bidgee (talk) 08:52, 25 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Das in Bezug auf ein Werk der Weltliteratur wichtige, kaum bekannte Bild soll auf Betreiben des Löschaktivisten „Teofilo“ entfernt werden. Ein ähnliches, aber nicht identisches hat der Verlag S. Fischer auf dem Schutzumschlag des ersten Bandes der Tagebücher abgebildet. Na, von mir aus. Der Löschaktivist ist kein Deutscher.

Sehr geehrter Herr Haack, was hat das mit Urheberrecht zu tun ? In welchem Artikel des Deutschen Urheberrechtsgesetzes haben sie das Stichwort "Kulturgut" gesehen ? Der Verlag S. Fischer hat wahrscheinlich nicht die selbe Ziele und Zwänge als wir hier auf Wikimedia Commons. Hier sollen alle Bilder "freie Inhalte" sein. Die Nutzung dieses Bildes in Verbindung mit Dem Zauberberg, gilt vielleicht als "fair use", und deshalb ist es nicht total undenkbar dieses Foto auf die Englische Wikipedia hochzuladen. Aber hier auf Commons gibt es keine "fair use" Inhalte. Bitte sehen sie Commons:Lizenzen. Teofilo (talk) 09:30, 23 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

 Delete Using Commons:Deletion requests/Image:Biamyinmd masturbating while pregnant.jpg (taken at the same photo shoot as the nominated image) as a precedent, a better rationale is essentially nopenis, e.g. the image is out of project scope because it is not "realistically useful for an educational purpose". Biamyinmd (that's "bisexual Amy in Maryland" for those who haven't tried to figure it out) also states "x dancer... still dancing on occasion, mostly private parties", which indicates that her propagation of her images and videos across multiple websites is promotional in purpose as she receives business from interest stirred by the images.

No source, no publication year. The photographer could be still alive today Teofilo (talk) 14:21, 21 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The photo was taken before 1936 (Wisting died in 1936). Teofilo (talk) 21:12, 21 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
A photographer aged 20 in 1936 would have been aged 77 in 1993. Teofilo (talk) 21:14, 21 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
In 1936, when he died, Wisting was 65 years old, so that the picture, where he looks younger, is probably earlier... If the picture was taken when Wisting was 40 by a 20 year old photographer, that photographer would have been 92 years old in 1993. Teofilo (talk) 21:28, 21 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

F.A. Worsley's book was published in London by Philip Allan & Co in 1931 according to this website (published in 1933 according to en:Frank Worsley#Bibliography), so I think that it is still copyrighted in the USA.

Keep. The image was first published in Australia in 1918, so is public domain (it should have a PD-Aus licence tag added). The SPRI are attempting to assert copyright over Hurley's Green Album images (of which this is one) in the same way the National Gallery does for reproductions of the paintings they hold. Neither claim is acceptable according to the WMF stance. Yomangani (talk) 14:13, 5 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

These were definitely published before 1923; they are PD in the U.S. They are PD in Australia too; see {{PD-Australia}} (and Hurley was Australian). If they were first published there, then everything is OK (Britain/Europe would use the rule of the shorter term anyways). Looking at Google Books... they were published in the U.S. in 1917 and apparently Underwood & Underwood (a photo agency) got the U.S. rights since at least two books in there have them as the copyright owner.

Does anybody care about the content of this page of text? But if you must, cropp it, blur it or scramble it. The photograph (Photo by Sunbeam, Margate) is anonymous, as they employed lots of photographers. /Pieter Kuiper (talk) 00:40, 22 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
In the UK one needs to make a "reasonable enquiry" before asserting that a content is anonymous. Teofilo (talk) 13:07, 1 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
The reasonable inquiry is to look at the original publication, and see that it was anonymously published. I also read this article about what Sunbeam was. But you are demanding unreasonable inquiry. /Pieter Kuiper (talk) 13:33, 1 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
This is just a general editorial piece on the front cover (no named writer and contains passages that start "We now give an account ...") It's therefore a bit of a stretch to suppose that anyone's copyright is being affected - we don't get to see the whole article anyway, it's just a passage of factual, non-creative report writing. The current editor of BCM, an ocasional wiki-editor himself, wrote the article to which the image is attached and so clearly approves of it's use here.

"clearly approves" : Perhaps he is not the copyright holder (what if the journalist is a freelance journalist ? What about the picture ?) and even if he is, he might allow only "fair use" within a Wikipedia article and nothing else. Teofilo (talk) 13:32, 1 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Keep I just checked the entire issue of the magazine and as far as I can tell, no authors are mentioned anywhere (it looks like the whole magazine is anonymous). Richard Clewin Griffith (1872-1955) was the editor back then, but that doesn't mean that he wrote the article or holds the copyright. The only indication about the photo is that it was taken by a Sunbeam photographer, but as explained by Pieter, this isn't enough to find out who took the photo, which should therefore also be considered anonymous. My understanding is that {{PD-UK-unknown}} applies to the text and the photo. The work became PD in the UK in 1994 and is therefore also PD in the US. Pruneautalk 17:56, 27 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The Cleveland press collection

[edit]

First publication after January 1, 1923, no research has been made on whether copyright was renewed or not. As far as I can read on http://www.clevelandmemory.org/press/ , these contents have not been released into the Public Domain. They seem to be copyrighted by its new owner, the Cleveland State University Library. Teofilo (talk) 23:47, 21 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Comment I don't know off hand about these particular images, but a couple of notes: US material from this era is PD unless specific copyrights & renewals were filed in the intervening decades. It not uncommon for smaller US newspapers not to bother fileing renewals for old issues. If the copyright on the original newspapers expired, the material is public domain, regardless of if the University Library has placed a copyright notice on their website. -- Infrogmation (talk) 00:17, 22 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
In case we would keep the files without checking, we should remove every licensing tag from the file and only say "copyright status unknown", so that the Wikimedia Commons' users know that it is unknown. Teofilo (talk) 02:17, 22 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I don't follow that at all. Hunh? -- Infrogmation (talk) 04:05, 22 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
The pictures should not be tagged "PD" as long as nobody checked if the copyright was renewed or not. At the very least, the {{PD-US}} tag should be removed. Teofilo (talk) 10:53, 22 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I wasn't arguing for keeping images of unknown copyright status. My points were simply 1)If someone has a chance to research back issues of the defunct newspaper, there's a good chance they'll find the copyright tags for these particular images to be correct. 2)If any image falls into the public domain, that image remains in the public domain even if someone puts it on a website with a copyright notice. I hope this clarifies my comment. -- Infrogmation (talk) 17:09, 22 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It is Queen Ranavalona I, no doubt about that (the painting is displayed at the Queen's palace in Antananarivo, Madagascar).

I don't know anything about Madagascar's copyright laws though. --Tryphon (talk) 19:58, 15 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
That is a rather big if - it might just as well be a post-independence painting. There are three copies of this image in Category:Ranavalona I, one of them may have signature, or it says "Reine Ranavalone". A similar problem for File:Andrianampoinimerina.jpg - one should not assume that it was painted during the subject's life (dead 1810). /Pieter Kuiper (talk) 20:22, 15 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
You mean after 1960? That seems very unlikely. Do you really think she might have been portrayed one century after her death? Then why would it be displayed at her palace, if it's just a modern painting with no historical value? --Tryphon (talk) 20:43, 15 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

There is no need to rush this. --AFBorchert (talk) 17:33, 23 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
