I inadvertently ran four different files through Flickr Upload Bot with this file name. Since I had no idea which file would end up here, I re-ran all of these through the bot again with unique names. This file, therefore, is redundant. SchuminWeb (talk) 01:51, 6 February 2009 (UTC)

- Delete Even the image is CC-BY-SA the restriction by the autor makes it unusable for Commons --D-Kuru (talk) 15:08, 9 February 2009 (UTC)
- KeepThe license on Flickr is free enough for Commons, the license also says that everybody can use it and the all the rest... The author of the image can ask you to ask for permission but the license is more important. When the license don't change I would say keep Abigor talk 21:59, 13 February 2009 (UTC)

Image source indicates that the image is actually taken from a journal/publication named "Magnet", and even if copyright were held by the Berkeley Lab, this would not constitute a work of the US Government. Mark (talk) 03:53, 6 February 2009 (UTC)
- Keep http://www.lbl.gov belongs to the Department of Energy. /Pieter Kuiper (talk) 08:22, 6 February 2009 (UTC)
- Delete Just because the image is hosted on a government site doesn't make all the content free. See [1] where copyright is claimed unless explicitly stated otherwise. Sourced to Magnet journal likewise implies copyright. Madcoverboy (talk) 18:27, 6 February 2009 (UTC)
- The source seems to indicate that the 10.4 MB digital file was scanned from the negative in the LBL photolab (click "more tags"), and I would assume that "Magnet" was an LBL publication. /Pieter Kuiper (talk) 18:36, 6 February 2009 (UTC)
- Delete The source of this image, [2], has a policy on its use: [3]. That policy says commercial use is strictly prohibited, so we can't use it. Also it bears noting that simply being published by the federal government (or one of its agencies) doesn't make it a work of the federal government. Much of the stuff the federal government publishes it doesn't actually own the copyright to (and so would be able to release it into the public domain). See Commons:Licensing#Works by the US Government. -Kotra (talk) 00:25, 7 February 2009 (UTC)

That image is credited here to Lockheed Martin. As far as I can see, it is not included in the CIA's released documents on the A-12, and is not part of their "Archangel" publication. Hence I'd really assume Lockheed Martin is the owner of the copyright. Thus not {{PD-USGov}}: contractor's works are not governmental works. Lupo 08:35, 6 February 2009 (UTC)

- This is clearly one of the better images on Plaża w Śródmieściu. It was not nominated because of scope, and this image is more likely to be used than the distant ducks, the distant ships or the distant bikini bums. Maybe this one could illustrate an article about the male gaze. /Pieter Kuiper (talk) 19:45, 6 February 2009 (UTC)
- Simply because other stuff exists doesn't mean this should. And speculating on my ulterior motives isn't productive, because the only reason I'm offering is that there's no educational purpose for this image. As for illustrating "the male gaze", the gaze itself isn't being illustrated, so I highly doubt its use there. -Kotra (talk) 21:47, 6 February 2009 (UTC)

I'm also curious about the word kiran; all I was able to find was an entry on http://www.thinkbabynames.com: The boy's name Kiran \k(i)-ran\ is pronounced keer-an.

not globally in the public domain. may be uploaded to en.wikipedia, but not in commons. --FordPrefect42 (talk) 09:48, 15 September 2008 (UTC)
- could you please clarify on what basis you've determined that it's not "globally in the public domain". On the image upload page I've linked it to licensing information, which may not be perfect, so if you have something that is more conclusive it would be helpful to know what it is, especially as it may help determine the suitability of other images. Rossrs (talk) 14:24, 15 September 2008 (UTC)
- Read the permissions statement on the page: “It is not in the public domain in the following countries that do not apply the rule of the shorter term for US works: Canada, China (excludes Hong Kong and Macao), Germany, Mexico, Switzerland, and other countries with individual treaties. See this page for further explanation.” To prevent copyviolating usage on projects like German, Chinese etc. wikipedias, it is best practice not to upload such a file to a global project like wikimedia, but rather directly to local wikipedias only, where it is public domain beyond doubt. --FordPrefect42 (talk) 17:53, 15 September 2008 (UTC)
- While true that Valley of the Dolls is probably still copyrighted in countries that don't observe the rule of the shorter term, Commons policy is that a U.S.-created image only needs to be public domain in the U.S. --dave pape (talk) 18:00, 15 September 2008 (UTC)
- Valley of the Dolls (the film) is still subject to copyright in the US. The Valley of the Dolls film trailer is not, so that's an important distinction. Thanks for clarifying your reasoning, FordPrefect42. I wasn't quite sure what you were basing this on. This tag is used on numerous Commons images, and so I thought you must have been referring to something that was specific to this image. I guess we'll have to leave it for further discussion, but Commons policy has allowed this tag to be used on numerous images. Rossrs (talk) 22:50, 15 September 2008 (UTC)

- The copyright notice is indeed there at 3'11". It reads:
- COPYRIGHT © MCMLXVII BY

- AND 20TH CENTURY FOX FILM CORPORATION
- To me, it is not clear wether it refers to the trailer or the film itself. There is also a notice on the youtube page itself: "Courtesy of: Screenplay, Inc.".

Neither is used since The FR Wikipedia article was deleted: "13 mars 2009 à 18:00 Theoliane (discuter | contributions) a supprimé « Jean-Marie d'Eysmond de Saint Ange » (Critères d'admissibilité non atteints)". Between that and the suspicious rights, delete both. --GRuban (talk) 13:01, 5 April 2009 (UTC)

Unnecesary image 81.38.86.121 23:55, 6 February 2009 (UTC)
- Comment No reason for deletion! However definitely the wrong licence!! --D-Kuru (talk) 01:55, 7 February 2009 (UTC)
- It is the wrong license. GFDL would work if it were properly credited (like, to MediaWiki and/or Wikimedia Commons). About it being unnecessary, COM:SCOPE considers it educational if it's being used in a Wikimedia project, which it is at Spanish Wikipedia. -kotra (talk) 23:57, 26 March 2009 (UTC)
- Keep Keep and change license to GFDL. --GRuban (talk) 13:03, 5 April 2009 (UTC)

Unnecessary image, most people knows how to specify the licenses 88.12.252.237 11:41, 12 July 2009 (UTC)

Image appears to be scanned from a printed source (see moire pattern at full resolution), which contradicts claim of being self-made. Mark (talk) 05:14, 6 February 2009 (UTC)
- Comment People scan old photos that they took from the 1960s and 1970's all the time like this File:Gene roddenberry 1976.jpg because there were No digital cameras at that time. In the Cap case above, however, the uploader is likely not the copyright holder and the image falls in a 'non-free fair use' category. It doesn't belong on Commons. --Leoboudv (talk) 07:31, 7 February 2009 (UTC)

"Public access" doesn't mean "can be used for any purpose", but let's see what others think. FunkMonk (talk) 08:53, 6 February 2009 (UTC)
- Gah. I suspect the text on the bottom of the source file, [5], would resolve this. But they made the text impossibly small, and... gray on a gray background?! Can anyone decipher it? -kotra (talk) 23:35, 26 March 2009 (UTC)
- Comment I think it's the same text as the larger hippo pic on http://www.edwardtbabinski.us/whales/evolution_of_whales/ - "Based on National Geographic, Nov 2001, The Evolution of Whales, by ... Chadwick, Gould, and Clark, Common ancestry in mammals, Cetacean evolution ... 2006 Sharon Mooney". Does that resolve it for you? It doesn't for me. The page says "All images reconstructed from National Geographic, are public access, though source and appropriate credits must be left intact." Public access usually means "you can see it", though asking for credits implies permitting copying and even modification ... Ehh. And what does "based on" mean, anyway; does the copyright belong to Babinsky, or National Geographic? No opinion. :-( --GRuban (talk) 17:19, 4 April 2009 (UTC)
- Thanks for finding that... that text doesn't resolve it for me, either. I thought it would be copyright info. All we're left then with is "All images reconstructed from National Geographic, are public access, though source and appropriate credits must be left intact."[6] I think the issue here then is "public access" doesn't say anything about the ability to create derivative works. Since we require the ability to make derivative works, I'd say Delete just to be safe. -kotra (talk) 05:29, 5 April 2009 (UTC)
- There are many other images uploaded from that site with the same rationale, should they be nominated individually, or listed here? FunkMonk (talk) 13:34, 5 April 2009 (UTC)

- By searching here for "edwardtbabinski"[7], I found other images apparently created by this author, and it even appears that he or she, I'm not sure, has a Wikipedia user page: [8]. I'm not sure what to make of it and the talk page content... There seems to be other questionable stuff uploaded which is associated with the name, like this image, which is apparently adapted from an unfree stock photo: File:Manila hemp.jpg FunkMonk (talk) 12:49, 9 April 2009 (UTC)

- Comment Ah. en:User:Edwardtbabinski claims to be Sharon Mooney, art student, and webmaster for http://www.edwardtbabinski.us/ and editor of the images in question (even has a self portrait here en:File:Sharon_mooney.gif!). Ms. Mooney seems to have left us in 2007, after a dispute about commercial links, and does not seem to be happy with us. I suspect Ms. Mooney did mean for her work to be reusable originally, but I'm not sure if she has the right to do that, if they're based on a National Geographic article. --GRuban (talk) 16:05, 9 April 2009 (UTC)

The image description does not have information about the author or where the picture was published. It might be PD in Turkey, but without this information, there's no way to verify it at the moment. --Kam Solusar (talk) 15:39, 6 February 2009 (UTC)
- Comment I personally searched the internet for a clue of its photographer and shot date, but could not find anything. Thinking that the poet died in 1936, this photo was probably taken between 1925 and 1930, but there is no information about the author's death date on my part. --Chapultepec (talk) 20:35, 6 February 2009 (UTC)
- Keep 1936 + 70 < 2009. This seems to be the definitive image for Mehmet Akif Ersoy according to searching for that name on Google Image Search, including a number of .gov.tr sites. Therefore it seems a fair bet that the "first owner" is truly unknown, not just in the sense of "we can't determine it", but in the sense of "can't be determined", in which case, I believe it is PD in Turkey. --GRuban (talk) 03:34, 5 April 2009 (UTC)
