CC3 licensed image of same specimen available on commons file:Cimolichthys nepaholica DMNHS54M 01.jpg --Kevmin (talk) 05:29, 30 September 2009 (UTC)
KeepI do not see why that is a reason to delete this photo. /Pieter Kuiper (talk) 05:54, 30 September 2009 (UTC)- Its the ambiguity of the release at creationism.org that concerns me. Here is the text from the site:
- "And most of these images are FREE for you to share with friends, co-workers & classmates and to be used for any educational purpose. (See the respective information on each page.) Do USE & SHARE these images! But please don't take advantage of our willingness to share them. Give proper credit, e.g. "Photo by ------" or "Courtesy of: www.creationism.org" as appropriate, and please ask before using images in any commercial for-profit publication of any kind"
- I'm not sure if the wording of this release is translatable to a CC license or not, plus the availability of a CC3 image on commons, means that this image should not be used and possibly it should not have been uploaded at all. It should be also noted that the image on that site from the Smithsonian include images which are of copyrighted materials such as paintings and dioramas. --Kevmin (talk) 06:30, 30 September 2009 (UTC)
- Its the ambiguity of the release at creationism.org that concerns me. Here is the text from the site:

[...] But please don't take advantage of our willingness to share them. Give proper credit, [...] and please ask before using images in any commercial for-profit publication of any kind.

Orphaned image which is blurry to the point of being useless. It's actually giving me a headache and making me cross-eyed. Nothing is identifiable. Wknight94 talk 13:55, 30 September 2009 (UTC)
- Delete agreed. Out of scope. It could be anyone on stage. -- Deadstar (msg) 15:04, 30 September 2009 (UTC)
- Comment Sure, the image is blurry and not clear, so it is not suitable as photograph of Radiohead.
- But, I think this photograph is still important, because the instrument he played is historically important, and the replacement is hard to find (especially under GFDL license).
- IMO, this photograph should be replaced when more clear photograph was available. --Shoulder-synth (talk) 16:03, 30 September 2009 (UTC)
- How can you tell it's historically significant? For all I can tell, he's using a typewriter. And your updated version still makes me cross-eyed. Wknight94 talk 17:21, 30 September 2009 (UTC)
- The historically importance of the instruments:
- Ondes Martenot is historically important because it is one of the world first electronic musical instrument with musical keyboard and ribbon controller, and many composers use this instrument. In the study or research of early history of electronic music, this instruments is not ignorable. For more details, please check Ondes Martenot.
- In recent, production of Ondes Martenot have been stopped. So, peoples who want to play the instrument need to find vintage one or some replacement.
- Analogue Systems French Connection, the Ondes Martenot controller for synthesizer used by Radiohead, is one of such replacement. This controller is historically important because it is hybrid of Ondes Martenot and analogue synthesizers.
- If you can't understand my explanation, further discussion may be waste of time. --Shoulder-synth (talk) 18:17, 30 September 2009 (UTC)
- No what I meant is that we can't even be sure that the object in the picture is the same as what you are describing. It's useless to have a photograph of a rare and significant object if that object is unidentifiable because the photo is so blurry. Wknight94 talk 18:55, 30 September 2009 (UTC)
- The historically importance of the instruments:
Wknight94, your question is very ambiguous.
In previous question, you said
- "How can you tell it's historically significant ?".
This question was good question, because it quantify importance of the instrument on the image, so I explained about historical significance of the instrument.
But, your personal point of view is not significant. On commons, there is no rule for deleting blur images. Such image may be replaced when more clear image was available. --Shoulder-synth (talk) 01:13, 1 October 2009 (UTC)

This deletion debate is now closed. Please do not make any edits to this archive.
I am the author of this picture. It was taken along with a lot of others at a national party convention, and then uploaded in the belief that most of the people present would be Wiki material. AA has now asked me to delete the picture. There is no article about her on any wiki, but one article about her first name, where this picture is used as illustration.
I ask that the picture is deleted to comply with her request. --GAD (talk) 18:04, 30 September 2009 (UTC)
Keep In use - is there any reason to doubt the license? --Simonxag (talk) 07:54, 5 October 2009 (UTC)
- As said, I have taken the photo, and I have licensed it as free. So there is no reason to doubt the license. But according to Norwegian law a person "owns" his or her picture, and it cannot be used without his/her permission. An exception being where the public interest may override the privacy rule. As there are no articles about AA on any wikipedia I cannot see that there is any general interest in the portrait. The only article using the photo is an article about the woman's first name. This surely does not need her picture as illustration. So please, delete. Regards, --GAD (talk) 05:15, 6 October 2009 (UTC)

Kept - derivative of a free image (non-admin closure). /Pieter Kuiper (talk) 23:50, 9 November 2009 (UTC)
Converted from a speedy deletion request by uploader with the following rationale:
"I created this image, derived it from Image:VulcanAlbertaEnterpriseReplica.jpg. But new insights have made me believe this could be considered a copy-vio. To stay on the save side, I would like to have this image deleted. I no longer want to be held responsable the opload and use of this image. This thing is that:
- Recent events have made me realize this image is created in Holland and should follow Dutch law.
- The original image Image:VulcanAlbertaEnterpriseReplica.jpg in Holland is free because of the so called "freedom of panorama"
- Now in the derrived work I made, the panorama is removed, and only the copyrighted object is left. This is not acceptable according to Dutch law.
So I would like this image removed as soon as possible." -- Marcel Douwe Dekker (talk) 18:09, 21 January 2010 (UTC)
Sv1xv (talk) 10:30, 22 January 2010 (UTC)
- Keep. As far as I know, this isn't really how "freedom of panorama" works, in Holland or elsewhere. It isn't like de minimis where the context is what makes it free; what makes it free is the manner in which it was exhibited. Any sort of derivative work should be permitted. I understand the uploader's concern, but there really should be nothing to worry about in this case. Dcoetzee (talk) 22:32, 22 January 2010 (UTC)
- Keep, according to Canadian law regarding FOP. Dutch law is not in use here, everybody here can repeat this derivative job again in Holland, Poland, Greenland or wherever, but the only important matter is the source, which is in Canada. Julo (talk) 16:25, 24 January 2010 (UTC)
- Hi Julo. There is a thing I don't understand. I have created this derrived work and published it on internet through Wikimedia commons. I can be held responsable for any copyright violantions and if so, I have to answer to a Dutch court and to Dutch law. I have serious doubts that this kind of derrived work is acceptable according to Dutch law.
- Now I have no problem if somebody else recreates this image and publishes it again. I do have a problem with this image beeing published under my name. Isn't there the rule that the national law of the creator should be taken in consideration. Isn't there a basic principle, that Wikicommons tries to avoid that people get legal problems? -- Marcel Douwe Dekker (talk) 22:44, 24 January 2010 (UTC)
- Why would a Dutch court of (civil) law deal with a FOP issue for an object of art located in Canada, especially if this object was not created in The Netherlands? Sv1xv (talk) 04:23, 25 January 2010 (UTC)
- Maybe I don't understand the question. But I give it a try.
- We are are talking here about the derrived work, I made, and not the art-object located in Canada.
- I can personally be hold responsable for the creation, upload and publication of this work on Wikicommons
- And if so, I will have to defend myself in a Dutch court...
- ...were the question will be if I upholded Dutch law or not...
- ...because I am a Dutch citizen, and created, uploaded and published this work from Ducth soil
- Maybe I don't understand the question. But I give it a try.
- As far a I understand now, Wikicommons is not taking over any of these responabilities. -- Mdd (talk) 11:43, 25 January 2010 (UTC)

The image is not under Crown copyright, created sometimes in 1954 to 1956 and Canadian PD works must be older than 1949. Not PD in US either as such. feydey (talk) 09:37, 30 September 2009 (UTC)
- Canadian photographs need not necessarily be older than 1949 to be public domain - the 50 years p.m.a. rule also applies. However, here we do not know the author of the photograph, so it is impossible to know if the image is public domain in Canada or not. Not sure what crown copyright has to do with this. An additional problem is its status in the U.S. - as a post 1945 image, it isn't treated as PD in the States per URAA, and without knowing the author, we have to assume that it is still copyrighted.
I originally uploaded this image to Wikipedia some time ago, scanning it from a book published in 2000 by the Ottawa Citizen - I don't have it handy at the moment, but it was a compilation of historic photos of Ottawa (as it was one of my first uploads, I wasn't bright enough to reference the book in the image description - although I did manage to mention the archival source). The book, IIRC, dated the photograph to the early 1940s (which, in retrospect, was incorrect). Since then, an eagle-eyed editor has noticed that the film advertised on the marquee in the image dates to the 1950s (as do the models of vehicles in the images). As a 1950s Canadian image with an unknown author, we don't know if it was public domain in Canada on the URAA date (January 1, 1996), and therefore need to presume that it is still copyrighted in the U.S. In light of the information about the movie and the vehicles, I would support the proposed deletion. --skeezix1000 (talk) 12:47, 1 October 2009 (UTC)

- I was the one who added the most recent deletion request. Not sure why my name is not associated to it, but that's not really important...just curious. Anyways, I work down the hall from the Ottawa Archives, from which that photo was extracted. They have it, in their records, as 1940. I worked with a woman from there, and she agrees that it is much later than 1940 and she will investigate. She doesn't believe there is a photographer's name associated to it, so am not sure how this affects copyright laws. Ccrashh (talk) 00:28, 5 October 2009 (UTC)
- The fact that the Ottawa Archives has misdated it explains why the Ottawa Citizen did the same. If the photo truly were from 1940, the lack of photographer information would not be an issue. But since the Cdn. copyright status of post-1948 images is based on the death of the author, plus 50 years, we really need to know the photographer (and date of death, assuming there is one) to be comfortable that the image is PD in Canada. In the end, however, it doesn't matter much because it also needs to be PD in the U.S. to be hosted on the Commons, and would therefore need to be a pre-1946 image to have any shot at public domain status in the States. Basically, the fact that we now know that the images dates to 1954-6 means that it no longer qualifies as PD. --skeezix1000 (talk) 13:01, 6 October 2009 (UTC)

The first premise of this discussion is incorrect. The Copyright Act provides that "where the identity of the author of a work is unknown, copyright in the work shall subsist for a term consisting of the remainder of the calendar year of the first publication of the work and a period of fifty years following the end of that calendar year. Therefore, to come within the public domain, anonymous Canadian works or photographic works would need only be older than 1958, not 1949, as stated.
The Copyright Act also provides that "where the owner [of a photograph] is a corporation, the term for which copyright subsists in a photograph shall be the remainder of the year of the making of the initial negative or plate from which the photograph was derived or, if there is no negative or plate, of the initial photograph, plus a period of fifty years.
"Black Pirates", the movie shown playing at the theatre in the photograph, was apparently first distributed in 1954. We can assume this photo was taken in 1954 or 1955.
In either case, assuming that the photograph had been published on or about 1954, the photograph is now in the public domain. The photograph has already been published in a book by the Ottawa Citizen. Obviously, they either cleared the copyright or made the same assumptions. If the copyright was cleared, it should have been attributed. My understanding is that it was not attributed and so we can assume that the photographer is unknown and that the photograph is now PD.
I don't know what the URAA has to do with this. If the image is PD in Canada, as the place of first publication, it is PD in every Berne signatory, including the US. --canuckIPlawyer 12:54, 17 November 2009 (UTC)
- You're right, CanuckIPLawyer, that I ought to have considered the fact that if the author were truly unknown, as seems to be the case from the post by Ccrashh above, copyright would have expired in Canada in 2004. Not sure that I would place any reliance on the Ottawa Citizen's publication of the image, however, since they appear to have published it under the false assumption it dated to the early 1940s. But for the reasons you have outlined, I am not sure that the Ottawa Citizen is particularly relevant.
As for URAA, I would be delighted if you were correct (fingers crossed). But that is not the position that has been adopted here or on any of the Wikimedia sites (see, for example, this template - {{PD-1996}} - which we use to tag the relevant images). The relevant discussions would be at w:Wikipedia:Non-U.S. copyrights - let me know if you decide to challenge the accepted orthodoxy on the talk page over there.--Skeezix1000 (talk) 19:18, 7 December 2009 (UTC)

Kept, picture from 1954 - 1955 makes it PD in Canada. Kameraad Pjotr 10:30, 10 April 2010 (UTC)
Renominating. The date of this photo has been very precisely determined to be 1954-1955 based on evidence in the image itself. Canadian photos published 1946 or later like this one were in copyright on the 1996 URAA date in Canada, and so it remains copyrighted in the US until 2051. The claims by CanuckIPLawyer in the previous nomination were incorrect - the US does not observe the rule of the shorter term and there are many foreign works in copyright in the US but not elsewhere.
