it doesn't seem likely that pettibon licenced this image under cc-by-2.0, does it? --NoCultureIcons (talk) 00:19, 21 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

P.S.: I only just realized that an admin should better look at the other uploads of Ndd, too, there seems to be more sketchy stuff. --NoCultureIcons (talk) 00:24, 21 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Douglas Gordon is a contemporary artist, whose works are continually moving between museums.[1][2] This photo was taken at Regent's Park, London. The United Kingdom permits freedom of panorama only for permenantly installed works of art, which this image likely is not. Jappalang (talk) 06:15, 21 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

source not found this image shizhao (talk) 08:24, 21 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Delete per copy vio. The source is "Copyright © 2007 John Kirkpatrick." --Leoboudv (talk) 09:43, 21 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Keep Huh? Source is here and does indicate the image was CC-BY-SA-3.0 (icon below the photo). That doesn't preclude John Kirkpatrick to own the copyright, but if he intended "© All rights reserved", he should have written so and not included the CC-BY-SA-3.0 licensing. BTW, please note that the image is currently on the en-WP mainpage; I already had to delete one vandalism overwrite. Lupo 09:48, 21 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Deze afbeelding is NIET gemaakt door DavyvanHattem, maar door Rick Bakker! Deze heeft verder ook GEEN toestemming gegeven om de afbeelding te uploaden. Meer info van Rick Bakker: http://www.wegenforum.nl/viewtopic.php?f=17&t=12771 Frans Bosch (talk) 19:34, 21 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

 Comment Translates as "this image is not made by DavyvanHattem but by Rick Bakker! He has NOT given permission to upload the image. More information at the link above" (but you have to be a member of the site it seems to log on.
It seems that IP 86.90.160.252 changed the author name from uploader User:CborG82 to User:DavyvanHattem. On the image page nominating user Frans Bosch seems to indicate that the initial information would be correct: (CborG82) is the copyright holder (The picture is NOT from DavyvanHattem, but the real author of this picture is: Rick Bakker (User:CborG82). This picture has Copyright All Rights Serverd!). So is Rick Bakker the same as User:CborG82 is the question. Changing the name back to its original can be done easily. -- Deadstar (msg) 21:15, 21 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I'm Rick Bakker a.k.a CborG82, but how do i proof that?? — Preceding unsigned comment added by CborG82 (talk • contribs) 21:29, 21 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
 Keep Thank you for responding. I think that solves the issue. You uploaded your own photograph under the license {{self|GFDL|cc-by-sa-3.0,2.5,2.0,1.0}} I'll change the name of the author back to CborG82. Perhaps IP-user was a bit confused. Anyway, this also means that there is no issue and the file can be kept. -- Deadstar (msg) 21:50, 21 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Kept per above. -- Deadstar (msg) 13:31, 24 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Can this image be kept on Commons? The flickr license is unfree. And the flickr owner says on his user page that:

  • "Unless described as otherwise, all the images in my Flickr photostream are © Roger Butterfield (all rights reserved)....Please note that I do not normally permit commercial enterprises to use my images free-of-charge."

I ask the community to decide. I don't have any strong views here. Leoboudv (talk) 01:13, 21 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The uploader placed 4 images on Commons on January 7, 2007. All were marked within hours of each other and 3 passed but this one failed. It appears to have been licensed as ARR. Since this was the second of the 4 images to be marked, this would seem to be licensed as All Rights Reserved. Its used on only 1 wiki page. Leoboudv (talk) 01:28, 21 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

This image is unused on wikipedia and did not pass flickr review. There are many other images of this pyramid. I think in this case, the image should just be deleted. There are many cars in the picture too which detracts from its quality. Leoboudv (talk) 02:59, 21 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I think the license here was 'Non-Commercial' and 'No-Derivatives' Creative commons when it was uploaded. It failed flickr review within 3 months of upload on this license and is still licensed this way. It is also only used on 1 talkpage page on Wikipedia, not in any articles.

Image is unused on wikipedia and there are 19 other images of this bridge in Verona. In this case, its preferable to delete since the copyright status is unverifiable. Leoboudv (talk) 04:37, 21 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

 Keep But this is a good photo of the bridge. Let us assume that User:Mac9 did a correct upload back in 2005. /Pieter Kuiper (talk) 06:53, 21 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
 Keep I agree with Pieter Kuiper, lets AGF and assume that User:Mac9 did a good upload, a quick glance at some of his flickr uploads all were perfect. --Captain-tucker (talk) 19:24, 25 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

"for illustration and educational (non-commercial) purposes." is not free enough for Commons. -- Kam Solusar (talk) 18:39, 21 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Quite the contrary is true. This image is used on page Freeze_stat for educational purposes. This image illustrates a digital freeze stat, just like the air-coil and mechanical freeze stat images in the Wikipedia article it supports. To delete this image will detract knowledge from the community. Please note that the neutrality of the article this image supports is not in dispute and serves no commercial purpose. This image is free enough for commons, lends knowledge to the community, and should not be deleted. W4kda (talk) 12:48, 22 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, the Wikipedia website itself is mostly non-commercial. But Wikipedia (and Commons) are freely licensed and can be copied, modified, and redistributed, even for commercial purposes. It therefore only accepts content under free licenses that allow use by anyone, anytime, for any purpose, see Commons:Licensing.

File:Global Zachman Framework.jpg and three others of the series

[edit]

Images are not encyclopedic (most likely cannot be used in any article). I created them for a discussion on the w:Zachman Framework talkpage, which ended months ago, but never used them. These image, I created, can removed now.

It is part of a series

which were experiments that didn't work out. They will most probably not be used in any Wikipedia article, so they should be removed. I will pay more attention next time before I upload an image like this. --Marcel Douwe Dekker (talk) 21:39, 21 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Veo varios problemas en esta foto:

  • Está tomada en un recinto cerrado ¿tiene permiso del propietario?

Respuesta: Sí. El teatro Nacional, está encantado con dar difusión a los eventos que alberga.

  • Aparecen varias personas identificables ¿han dado su permiso?

Respuesta: Claro, de hecho fue foto promocional del espectáculo.

  • Una obra de teatro es una obra de arte. Su autor sigue vivo. Por no hablar del otras personas que puedan tener derechos sobre esta versión concreta: directos, escenógrafo, iluminador...Martingala (talk) 12:55, 21 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Translation of my questions and the "answers" of the uploader:
Q: Photo taken in a private building, has permission from owner?
A: Yes. The National Theatre is delighted with the spreading of its events
Q: Several identifiable people appear, have they given permission?
A: Off course, in fact this was the promotional photo of the show
Q: A play is a work of art. His playwright is still alive. Not to talk about other people having rights over this particular version: director, scenographer...
A:The author (Sanchis Sinisterra) was happy when he saw the premiere at Tegucigalpa

You're right, there's no source mentioned on the site. Although the image is only used on the start page of the COROT minisite and I can't find it anywhere on the gallery pages. But the image name contains the word "roscosmos", which is the Russian Federal Space Agency. This site also shows this image and credits it to Roscosmos.

This work of art is not by Wangechi Mutu, Derrick Tyson was inspired by her to create it. Ignoring the incorrect name, it seems that the image might be okay since Tyson (the creator) released it per the CC license on Flickr. However, I do not know if creating a collage out of possibly copyrighted material can void those copyrights and allow one to release the collage as his or her own work; so I am raising this image here for discussion.

This seems to be an artistic work, so unless the photographer (Karl Lärka) died before 1944 (he didn't, see sv:Karl Lärka 1981), the image can't be kept if the permission can't be presented.

It is apparently a picture of a work by Douglas Gordon, and he might still retain copyright on this derivative work. Eusebius (talk) 12:15, 21 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

 Comment This work of Gordan is apparently an installation art (samples of his similar works: [5][6]). However, this photo focuses on simple text {{PD-text}}, so should it be ineligible for copyright? Jappalang (talk) 20:44, 21 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
