Uploader uploaded other ducati images from the ducati.com homepage. Author here is "Ducati", the upload date on Flickr is a strong indication of flickr"washing", anyone can view it does not mean that everyone can use this image for every purpose including commercial purposes. Martin H. (talk) 21:16, 27 December 2008 (UTC)
- Delete Apparently we were having the same train of thought, Martin..while you were preparing this DR I was restoring the user's other deleted images to see if there was a match. There isn't, but I'm pretty sure this is flickr-washing. New, low-res uploads to flickr immediately uploaded to Commons. Brynn (talk!) 21:27, 27 December 2008 (UTC)

- Keep It's a nice picture. I'm sure we can describe it better, and wikilink to appropriate categories. Leśniczówka is Polish for "forester's headquarters", usually a modest abode, but this one appears to be rather splendid as these things go. Pranie is the name of the place, maybe shared with a nearby village (it also means "the washing" in Polish, but that's neither important nor even confirmed). I'd not delete the image -- the flowers are very well shown -- a derived image (cropped) might be emminently useful. --Mareklug talk 00:17, 2 January 2009 (UTC)

Useless vandalism; was put in Category:Gay and then Category:LGBT but has nothing to do with LGBT people. ✰ALLSTAR✰ echo 03:26, 27 December 2008 (UTC)
- Keep No copyright problem; this image is not vandalism. /Pieter Kuiper (talk) 11:15, 27 December 2008 (UTC)
- Keep - this isn't vandalism, just CommonsSense. Faggot is, we all know, often used as a derogatory term for gay, so the autocategoriser put it in the category "Gay", which was then automatically moved to LGBT. I've corrected the categories, so unless you have reason to believe the image is out of scope or improperly licenced, I think this DR will be closed as keep. It is important to remember though, that just because an image can be used for vandalism, it doesn't necessarily mean that image itself is vandalism. -mattbuck (Talk) 12:03, 27 December 2008 (UTC)

- Comment The original uploader was User:Caveman80, who put it in the gay cat AND who also tried to get several penis/ejaculation images deleted (see Special:Contributions/Caveman80); Now there's User:Outsider80 that's trying to get every image of a penis he can find on Commons, deleted too (see all the penis deletion noms at Commons:Deletion_requests/2008/12/27). Yeah, I'd say it was an act of vandalism and this user is having issues with penis/gay whatever. ✰ALLSTAR✰ echo 17:04, 27 December 2008 (UTC)

- Comment- on issues raised: dude, I'm gay. and being gay, I am not ant-gay or anti-penis. That being said, it is kind of suspect that the vast majority of the "educational" examples of penises on Wikimedia projects are home-made low-quality self-taken images (mainly of caucasian males over the age of 25 and over a body-mass-index (BMI) rating where a commerical website would actually pay them money for such contributions.) Commons is for images of a educational/informative context (Commons is not DudesNude, or any other variety of penis posting websites) (And adding labels in your photo-editing software does not make an image more educational/professional looking, it just makes it look more home-made). I am not for removing every penis picture from Commons, but at least 50% of them (probably higher) are crap images of unremarkable penises with no bonafide medical condition being illustrated, and their inclusion here leads to them being used in and polluting various Wikipedia projects. anyhow (gets off my soap box). peace.

not a normative act or draft thereof, official document, material, sign or symbol, unsourced image. Martin H. (talk) 13:35, 27 December 2008 (UTC)
- How do you define "official material"? In my opinion anything that a Polish goverment employee created during his work is "official material" and as such is in the public domain. This photo was made by a Polish Goverment agency (Agencja Mienia Wojskowego) and as such it is public domain.

Note: AMW will cease to exist in the next few months, it will be replaced by Agencja Uzbrojenia (Armament Agency) and the links will probably go dead, that is why I did not link the image directly to he source of the image.
Mieciu K (talk) 13:33, 5 January 2009 (UTC)
- No, images are copyrighted by the author at least 70 years after the authors death as you can see in Commons:Licensing#Poland, photographic works by polish government employees are not public domain. The website also does not give any hint that the image is pd but Copyright © Agencja Mienia Wojskowego 2007, so Delete --Martin H. (talk) 13:49, 5 January 2009 (UTC)
- You did not answer my question. What is "official material" (pl:oficjalny materiał) of the Polish Goverment? Anything created by a goverment employee in the scope of his proffesional duties during his working time falls under the category of official goverment material, sign, symbol, document a normative act or draft thereof and under article 4 is exempted from Polish copyright law. Your interpretation of article 4 case 2 the Polish copyright law is confusing, can the Polish goverment create anything itself? No, everything created by the Polish goverment is also created by one or many goverment employees or electees, if those materials would fall under the category of materials copyrighted for 70 years after their death than article 4 case 2 of Polish copyright law is redundant and makes no sense. The AMW website does not give any hint that the AMW logo is also exempted from Copyright, but does this make the AMW logo copyrighted? Mieciu K (talk) 18:58, 5 January 2009 (UTC)
Keep Look at the definition of offical material below. IMHO it is clear that photograps from Polish goverment websites fall under this category an as such are exempted from copyright law. Mieciu K (talk) 19:53, 5 January 2009 (UTC)
Delete {{Polishsymbol}} is applicable only for normative acts or drafts thereof, official documents, materials, signs or symbols, which means that they NEED to be regulated by polish law. i.g. acts, statutes, other regulations. BTW there is NOTHING about photographies, unless they are part of those acts/lwas. It doesn't mean that EVERYTHING what is published by government or government agencies is PD. BTW. AMW (Agencja Mienia Wojskowego) is not governmental but military institution administrating army's property. Masur (talk) 13:41, 7 January 2009 (UTC)
- "which means that they NEED to be regulated by polish law. i.g. acts, statutes, other regulations" the website/photographs have been created according to universally binding law of the Republic of Poland Did you read article 87 case 2 of the Polish constitiution? "Źródłami powszechnie obowiązującego prawa Rzeczypospolitej Polskiej są na obszarze działania organów, które je ustanowiły, akty prawa miejscowego." unoficial translation : "Enactments of local law issued by the operation of organs shall be a source of universally binding law of the Republic of Poland in the territory of the organ issuing such enactments." In the military orders are the law. And the AMW website could not have been created without an order. The Military Property Agency is a government agency [2]. Mieciu K (talk) 21:58, 7 January 2009 (UTC)
- Corrections, I made a mistake while in the military orders are the law, when they are not related to everyone in some specific territory (like the bylaws concernig behaviour in a Military Museum) they are not universally binding law. Mieciu K (talk) 20:00, 8 January 2009 (UTC)
Delete, per Masur's explanations. Photos like this, even when belonging to government-related organisations, are not "polishsymbol". One of the few glorious examples is the website of the Polish President, which distributes photos under GFDL :) Wpedzich (talk) 13:46, 7 January 2009 (UTC)
- "are not "polishsymbol"" and why are they not "official documents, documentary material, devices and symbols,[3]"? Doesn't this photo document how a RPD looks? "the website of the Polish President, which distributes photos under GFDL" it claims that it's Photos are distribiuted under GFDL which does not mean that is their legal status according to Polish copyright law. Mieciu K (talk) 22:13, 7 January 2009 (UTC)
Delete According to National Bank of Poland, even Polish currency design is not PD; broad discussin about BIP's in (public websites of administration units) in Polish Wikipedia settled, that they are not PD either. Even Highest Court settlement is not enough, because it's taken out of context and we don't know the whole case; courts in Poland only interpret law but not CREATE it by precedence! Other courts may take this case in account, but are not bound by it. A.J. (talk) 16:10, 7 January 2009 (UTC)
Keep The definition is so vague, it's a subject to an open interpretation. One should assume good will.--Adi (talk) 18:08, 7 January 2009 (UTC)
- we are not assuming bad will. But we arent talking about user's good or bad will, but about interpretation of the polish law. And here its better to be more careful than to cause precedences that we are not in a position to cause. Masur (talk) 20:25, 7 January 2009 (UTC)
- Where did our "BE BOLD" motto go? Both Wikipedia and legal systems of democratic countries are based on common sense, both the common sense and the interpretation of the Polish Highest Court clearly point out that "official material" is on purpose a term which should be interpreted according to common sense (in Polish it is konown as Klauzula Generalna) and photpgraphs made by goverment agency to document something are clearly "exempted from copyright". Mieciu K (talk) 22:26, 7 January 2009 (UTC)
Delete Per above arguments. {{PD-Polishsymbol}} is not Polish Governement's version of {{PD-USGov}} and work is clearly marked "Copyright © Agencja Mienia Wojskowego". --Jarekt (talk) 18:10, 7 January 2009 (UTC)
- per above arguments {{PD-Polishsymbol}} is exactly Polish Governement's version of {{PD-USGov}}. "Copyright © Agencja Mienia Wojskowego" they could have just as well written "copyright violators will be shot" in case of conflict what is more important Polish national statutes or some unnamed webmaster's declaration? Also please take a look at the website of the Polish MoD [4] or the Polish Goverment [5] I don't see any copyright tags there. Mieciu K (talk) 22:02, 7 January 2009 (UTC)

What is "official material"
[edit]The Civil Code Chamber of the Polish Highest Court defined official material (urzędowy materiał) in it's sentence from 26 September 2001 (sygn. akt IV CKN 458/00) as "that, which comes from an office or other national institiution, or concerns offical issues or was created as a result of implementation of official procedures" - my own translation. ("to, co pochodzi od urzędu lub innej instytucji państwowej, bądź dotyczy sprawy urzędowej, bądź powstało w rezultacie zastosowania procedury urzędowej")[6]. This interpretaion is used by Polish courts. Mieciu K (talk) 19:28, 5 January 2009 (UTC)
You can read about this in Polish here: [7], [8]
Under this interpretation images created for AMW are clearly "official materials" (that, which comes from an office or other national institiution) unless it is clearly stated that they are property of someone who is not employee, nominee or electee from that institiution. Mieciu K (talk) 19:28, 5 January 2009 (UTC)
