  •  Comment I don't really see where it says that a picture of a Scrabble board is forbidden (but I admit I have read it very quickly). I am actually dubious when I read that : "Copyright protects only the particular manner of an author’s expression in literary, artistic, or musical form. Copyright protection does not extend to any idea, system, method, device, or trademark material involved in the development, merchandising, or playing of a game. Once a game has been made public, nothing in the copyright law prevents others from developing another game based on similar principles.". --TwoWings * to talk or not to talk... 08:57, 21 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Deleted. Twowings quote means, essentially, that the board itself can be copyrighted, but not the method of play. While you can copyright a particular set of words describing the game rules, that covers only those particular words. Someone could make a new text of the rules that described the rules in different words and it would not be an infringement. This is why there are no proprietary games for an ordinary deck of cards -- there is nothing to prevent someone else from selling the same thing. Most (all?) proprietary games maintain their monopoly by copyright on either the board (Scrabble) or the cards used Uno (card game). Thus, for example, you can play the game Uno with regular playing cards and not infringe, but you cannot copy Uno's special set of cards.      Jim . . . .

  • Comment - This file was tagged for speedy deletion. I disagree with speedy deletion of this file. Per the speedy template, I replaced it with the DR template. This file appears to have come from the person in the image. One reason I think this, is because it is used here (a user subpage on the en wiki). Because of these reasons, I think a full discussion should be used. I am indifferent to whether or not the file gets deleted though.--Rockfang (talk) 20:46, 13 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The national sides of the Euro coins are copyrighted, the same should apply to the bank notes. Plus, no assertion the Belgium bank allowed this under the CC license. User:Zscout370 (Return fire) 20:44, 13 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. Classic case of yet another user who has been uploading tons of images of money copied from websites. It should be the burden of the uploader to provide the evidence that the image is free. Of course, there is no copyvio when a banknote is evidently PD-old or covered by an explicit verifiable permission for the specific country. When such permission is known to exist for a country, one should be able to find on Commons an available PD template for it. When the image is not free, it should generally be speedy deleted on sight. It would be unproductive to do a deletion request discussion in each case, because users who make that type of copyvios often tend to upload them by the dozens or by the hundreds, and to reupload them again and again under various file names after the deletion decisions. Regular clean-ups of those images must be done. For example, this 1000 Belgian franks banknote image has already been deleted and reuploaded by a different user under a different name. There was no evidence that this banknote image might be free. It does not seem that this situation has changed. The uploader had been requesting permissions to "reproduce images on Wikipedia". Someone explained to him that even if he personally got that type of permission, it was not good for Commons unless the images were made free and the permission was validated. And of course, the CC license claim has nothing to do there and it is even contradictory with the simultaneous DP claim by the user. Fortunately, he stopped those uploads. See his talk page and upload log and this discussion. Many uploads of this type by this user are already deleted, but you can probably still find some that were forgotten and are still around. And you can probably also find lots of similar images, from other uploaders, that are waiting for a clean-up, perhaps not so much of banknotes but especially of national faces of euro coins. -- Asclepias (talk) 00:24, 14 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    • However the rationale is completely incorrect, this is not a Euro banknote, but an older belgian one in francs. BTW, Euro banknotes have no "national sides", they are all the same! Given that the copyright law of Belgium follows the French pattern, so it has no specific exeptions for government works etc. it is a copyvio and should be deleted.

I have seen such images transferred to russian wikipedia by bot Rubinbot II', but do not know how to tell Rubinbot to do so. -- Klaus with K (talk) 12:29, 20 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
If the photo is illegal in Commons according to Russian law, then it is probably illegal in the Russian Wikipedia according to Russian law. --Fernrohr (talk) 12:38, 20 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
It is not illegal. The issue is compatibility with the set of licences we allow us on commons. And one can see (example ru:Файл:Stalinian architecture in Moscow (Kudrinskaya Square Building).JPG) that files with FOP issue on commons are bot-transferred to Russian wikipedia. How to invoke the bot?-- Klaus with K (talk) 14:42, 20 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I honestly think it is illegal: There is no FOP in Russia if the building is the basic object of the photo, OR commerical use ([7]). --Fernrohr (talk) 15:28, 20 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Fair enough. Then it is interesting to find that there is a bot to move them across. -- Klaus with K (talk) 16:08, 20 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

First, this building wasn't designed or built in Russia. It was designed and built in the Soviet Union. Second, is it your intention to delete all photographs of monuments designed and built in the Soviet Union? If so, then this discussion should take place in a more conspicuous place. If not, then do you have some other grounds for wanting to delete this image? Rklawton (talk) 12:30, 17 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Hi, you find the explanation here. --Fernrohr (talk) 13:30, 17 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
That's for Russia - not the CCCP. Rklawton (talk) 14:20, 17 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
But it is now applicable. --Fernrohr (talk) 14:21, 17 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Says you. Since you've nominated a few hundred images, this discussion is now here. Rklawton (talk) 14:43, 17 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I found an explicit statement on retroactive copyright of Shchusev here. --Fernrohr (talk) 06:33, 19 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Wrong. Your example (not part of the law) lists Shchusev as an example of an architect and identifies him as the designer of the tomb. But it does not state that he holds the copyright for the tomb. He worked for the State. It was a State project. The State holds the copyright. And under Russian law, State-held copyrights expire 70 years after the "publishing" (construction) of the work (in this case, 1930). Heck this is the CCCP we're talking about, back then the State even owned its citizen's corpses - such that families did not have the right to decline autopsies or post-mortem research of any kind even if it violated their religious principles. Rklawton (talk) 19:34, 19 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Please read the quote: "Other authors on whose works copyright was restored were ...Aleksey Shchusev (died 1949, architect of the Lenin Mausoleum)." Of course all Soviet buildings were by the state, and there was no problem with commercial use either, because there was no private commerce. This doesn't change the fact that after the Soviet Union, the duration of the IP of individual architects was prolonged to 70 years p.m.a. --Fernrohr (talk) 21:01, 19 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Building was designed by architect Nikitkin who died in 1973. There is no FOP in Russia. Fernrohr (talk) 23:04, 13 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

It is a building carrying many antennas and transmitters, with an observation deck and a restaurant on top. --Fernrohr (talk) 07:04, 14 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I wouldn't exactly call it a news photo (article 1274), taken 6 years after the fire, and from too far away to see that part of the facade which was impacted by the fire. --Fernrohr (talk) 18:09, 18 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
"Too far away"? Then it can't infringe IP rights. --Iotatau (talk) 18:28, 18 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
You find it here- --Fernrohr (talk) 19:15, 18 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, you have pointed me to Art. 1276 before, I have pointed you to Art. 1274 before. To complete the circle I restate your words that the tower is an engineering achievement and that the image has been taken "too far away" to recognize important details. You yourself have refuted the arguments for deleting this image, thank you. --Iotatau (talk) 19:27, 18 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I reasoned my request with the IP of the architect (Nikitin). The photo is too far away to see the details (that part of the facade which was impacted by the fire) that might qualify as a news image, apart from the timing 6 years after the event (art. 1274). It is not too far away to make the tower, as designed by the architect, not "the basic object of the reproduction" (art. 1276). I don't think we should find here bizarre excuses for copyvios. --Fernrohr (talk) 19:37, 18 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
You turn the demands upside down: for news photos the quality standards are much lower than for works of art. This image is good for documenting the tower history but it does not "reproduce" Nikitin's architecture. Too many details are lacking for a faithful reproduction. --Iotatau (talk) 19:46, 18 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • The photo displays the complete bulding of an architect who died in 1973, which is exactly when FOP would be necessary in order for the uploader to be able to grant a CC-license for commercial use.

Restored. Functional building. Beside that, almost everybody above agreed with that. Yann (talk) 14:27, 24 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]


Reopened the debate.      Jim . . . . Jameslwoodward (talk to me) 14:56, 24 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

 DeleteThe arguments made above are, roughly:

  • It's not a building -- although primarily built as an antenna tower, it has restaurants, shops, and public spaces, which make it a building. Even User:Yann, when restoring the file, calls it a building. But it doesn't matter. All architecture has a copyright and any large structure is architecture, see see most English language dictionaries including the OED. Would you say that the Eiffel Tower was not architecture?
  • It's not a work of art. -- There is no requirement that a copyrighted work be beautiful, or be a work of art. The only requirement is originality -- it must not be a copy of something PD.
  • It's not original. -- Please. The shape, the various detailing, including the multi-legged base (see File:Socle ostankino tower.JPG) and the several bulges for restaurants, shops, and services make it unique and original.
  • "Cars, locomotives, rockets" and other engineering works don't have copyrights, so this shouldn't. -- That argument would have been excellent a hundred years ago. Architecture is a relatively recent addition to the list of things covered by copyright, but it is explicitly covered now in most countries, including the USA and Russia. Cars, locomotives, and rockets aren't.
  • It is a functional structure, therefore not covered by copyright. -- Most architecture has one specific function. Would you argue that the Vehicle Assembly Building is not architecture? Or the John Hancock Tower. The former's only function is putting together Space Shuttles. The latter's function is an office building. There is nothing in the law that says that a structure that functions as an office building is covered by copyright, but a structure that functions as an antenna tower is not.      Jim . . . . Jameslwoodward (talk to me) 14:56, 24 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

 Keep. As NVO wrote on Fernrohr's talk page: A policy is in place but there's no commitment. None. [...] practically anything built in the Union fails COM:FOP in this or that way. It's a five-digit mass of photos. Current "consensus" is to disregard COM:FOP in this case: no one really cares about legalese crap fabricated in Russia or North Korea. [...] Can this simple statement lead to a summary deletion of all photography in the Union-related categories? (accentuation by me) - yes, it can, if you go ahead deleting stuff like this, resulting in Wikimedia Commons becoming virtually useless for illustrating articles about Russia and/or or the Soviet Union (which occupied 1/6 of the Earth's land area). Change this policy right now because of common sense and the nullo actore, nullus iudex principle, and stop deletions at least until this point is clarified! And BTW, we do not need administrators implementing "commons policies" acting like robots not considering any issues around, like the mentioned above... --SibFreak (talk) 07:09, 29 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I consider the argument "deletion is inconvenient and nobody will sue WMF based on this legalese crap, so let's ignore it" particularly inadequate. Nothing needs to be clarified, it is all pretty clear. Dura lex, sed lex, since you like Latin. --Fernrohr (talk) 08:19, 29 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

 Keep and do something!
Firstly, according to [8], it doesn't seem like there's a clear-cut "no" to non-commercial use like Commons.
Secondly, this sort of discussion is spectacularly fruitless. Why has nobody bothered to find a practical rather than a theoretical answer to the question of whether to delete or keep this photo? There has to be a middle ground between "keeping it and hoping nothing bad is going to happen" and "deleting it in anticipatory obedience".
You'll easily find two official websites affiliated with the tower: it is a member of the World Federation of Great Towers, and it even has its own website [9]. Both sites feature a good few photos of the tower. And the tower's website lists contacts for their Advertising and Press department, as well as their Legal department. Now there's a thought...
So why exactly are we debating here whether it's okay to use this photo on Commons when it's possible to actually ask somebody with at least some authority with regard to the tower? To spell it out: Wouldn't it be possible to ask the tower people whether a) the photo is ok to be used, or whether they can b) provide a substitute? It might be best to get somebody with a knowledge of Russian to do this, though. In any case, I don't want to believe that the great people of Wikimediaworld can't get this done practically and instead prefer to engage in discussions that only have theoretical value and little bearing on the real world. --afromme 12:32, 30 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Commons is not "non-commercial use" -- we require images to be free for commercial use. In fact all of my images that have been taken from Commons for use elsewhere have been for commercial use.
It is not "the tower people" that need to give permission, it is the architect or his heirs. Without a license from the architect, there is no possible substitute -- the problem is not this image, it is that any image of the tower infringes the architect's copyright.
We in fact, as a matter of firm, established policy, "delet[e] in anticipatory obedience". We are "a database of 7,465,085 freely usable media files to which anyone can contribute". This, the subhead from our main page, says "freely usable", not "freely usable as long as no one objects".
We therefore do not do what we would like to do -- all of us would like to keep FOP problem images like this one, we do what Russian law and our firm policy requires us to do, which is to delete in this case.     Jim . . . . Jameslwoodward (talk to me) 12:58, 30 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Deleted per Jameslwoodward as this is a building by the renowned Russian architect Nikolai Nikitin which is naturally copyrighted. Please notice that, for example, the arrangement and design of the arcs and the bull's eye-windows which are arranged in an interesting pattern at the bottom (to be seen at File:Socle ostankino tower.JPG) are clearly a copyrighted work of architecture which is not a strict consequence of its function. Likewise, the arrangement of the tower with its sequence of sections and lighting as very well demonstrated by File:Ostankino tower.jpg and File:Ostankino 2.jpg indicate that we have a magnificent piece of architecture where originality is given. As it is well known, we require per COM:L and per this resolution of the WMF that all media at Commons must be free for commercial use. Unfortunately, the very strict legislation in Russia does not extend FOP to commercial use with the result that we cannot keep these images. Other than Wikimedia Commons, individual projects are free to take advantage of the Exemption Doctrine Policy (EDP) (as, for example, en-wp) or to apply local law (as, for example, de-wp) and to continue to use these images by moving them to the individual projects. --AFBorchert (talk) 18:53, 8 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

photo of a Brazilian writer with no notability/vanity as voted here pt:Wikipedia:Páginas para eliminar/Márcio Américo - out of scope Santosga (talk) 23:33, 13 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

 Keep Hm... he was apparently not notable enough to be kept at pt-wp (but his notability was just measured by Google hits and just voted on without any insightful comments). On the other hand, we can have the bar somewhat lower at Commons for people with potential. So far, he has published in 1999 a book with poems (Preciso dar um jeito na vida) and another book in 2003 (Meninos de Kichute, ISBN 8598015032). In addition, he is also not just mentioned by blogs (as claimed by the deletion request at pt-wp) but also by journals like Cult in its issue 121 where he is refered to as author of the book Meninos de Kichute and where, if I understand it correctly, a collaborative work with the Brazilian film director Lucas Amberg is indicated. Even if all this does not yet sum up to notability according to the criteria of our projects, Márcio Américo has certainly the potential for this if he continues to publish books. Given this, we should keep this photograph even if it is unused for now. --AFBorchert (talk) 07:52, 14 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

What is the problem with File:Panoramica desde o parque Eugenio Granell - 01.jpg? It hasn't been uploaded by Truu, it was uploaded by me. Truu simply confirmed that the license of the image (that comes from Flicker) is right.Xosema (talk) 23:14, 13 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The bot Lucia Bot either delete all the images I've edited so far. Truu (talk) 23:20, 13 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - This file was tagged by the nominator's bot with this deletion request. It wasn't uploaded by Truu. I highly suggest that the closing admin check each file, and verify the correct uploader. Also, in this request, it is not stated where the files are from. That would help with determining whether or not any of them actually are violations or not.--Rockfang (talk) 23:26, 13 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I just checked some random pictures the Lucia Bot (btw. this bot is missing the bot flag!) nominated for deletion as a "copyvio be user Truu", but none of them was uploaded by Truu. Therefore I blocked the bot for one week, that should be sufficient to clearify what went wrong! Hmmm, is there a possibility to undo all his nominations at once? axpdeHello! 23:46, 13 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep, if I understand rightly, this nomination is apparently based on a misunderstanding and excaserbated (I think I spelled that wrongly, but you get the point) by a malfunctioning bot. When properly attributed files from Flickr with an obviously free license are marked as copyvios because of who edited them, we have a problematic nomination. If any files are deleted, they should only be deleted as a result of a new nomination. Nyttend (talk) 19:22, 17 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Per COM:DW and this in France (no COM:FOP#France) Obelix (talk) 21:45, 13 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

  • Yes, but things do go out of copyright in France. When was this window made, and by who? It looks believably like piece of Victorian glasswork. It's not particularly hard to find out the provenance of stained glass, if one speaks the language; a phone call or letter to the church in question would settle this unambiguously. Adam Cuerden (talk) 22:52, 13 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    • I live in Sweden and can't speak French myself, however I do feel that the picture uploader must be able to verify that the picture does not brake the copy right laws. If the picture uploader can't verify it then the picture should be deleted.Obelix (talk) 23:16, 13 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

 Comment I apologize for reporting the image (picture) for deletion too soon. If it's really so old that the copyrights have expired perhaps you could find a source confirming that? Obelix (talk) 22:55, 13 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

It's fine to nominate it; deletion requests are often the best way to flag an image up to be researched. I don't speak French, however, and I suspect the best sources would be local - nowadays, every church has a leaflet about its stained glass - so I suspect I must pass to someone else to find out; but I think that making the attempt to find out should happen before deletion, as there's a pretty good chance this is fine. Adam Cuerden (talk) 06:37, 14 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I do not want this image deleted, but it was tagged "speedy" and this is the only way to do this properly. This is not a copyrighted image, shisa by the thousands adorn everything in Okinawa prefecture, much like tikis in Hawaii and pyramids in Cairo.--Kintetsubuffalo (talk) 06:29, 13 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete (Note File:Shisa_face.svg is also directly linked to this DR as a direct SVG version of the artwork in question) The 2d artwork on the sign most likely was created by someone and used to create the sign. The artistic creation of that 2d artwork would afford it copyright protection. Without direct evidence that 2d artwork isn't copyrighted we have to assume it is. Thus the picture of the sign, and then creation of a SVG exact duplicate of the artwork, is a copyright violation. — raeky (talk | edits) 06:44, 13 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Between your eagerness to get this deleted without community consensus (and then accusing me of "edit warring" because of my insistence to go through the proper process) and such questionable uploads of yours such as File:Finpecia from India is Cheap Propecia.jpg (both as something clearly "created by someone"-the basis for your claim-and the blatant advertisement in the name you chose), I would submit that you are not qualified singlehandedly to determine what is copyrighted and what is not.--Kintetsubuffalo (talk) 07:16, 15 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Speedy is the proper process for copyright violations that are profoundly blatant as this is, not DR. Are you saying your not allowed to upload works by someone else, lol? The filename is the title of the image on Flickr and was automatically chosen by the script that I used to upload it, don't like it {{Rename}} it. And it's _not_ a copyright violation, and the admin that initially deleted (and I had it undeleted) and then the admin that deleted it nominated it for a DR, is an EXTREME copyright paranoid, I'm very very mild. There is nothing that is copyright-able on that image you linked too of mine, theres trademarks and simple fonts and geometric shapes, nothing eligible for copyright protection. I accused you of edit warring, well the potential of starting it, because of your refusal to accept a speedy tag then the very blunt attack of my revert of your change from the speedy to {{Delete}} since speedy is the proper tag for this image. Of my >5,000 edits here on commons, and MANY uploads, as I said below, my track record speaks for it's self. Theres no need to try to impeach your character here, a quick glance at your talk page is enough to tell the story. — raeky (talk | edits) 11:31, 15 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

No threat, just acknowledging that you was dangerously close to breaking en:WP:AGF and en:WP:CIVIL by your attempt to dig up "Evidence" to impugn my character. I fail to see what admins I've impugned. — raeky (talk | edits) 14:01, 16 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Not so fast. The Ryukyuan shisa in its present form dates back to at least the 15th century, and the convenience store logo in question is nothing but a faithful 2D rendering of the archetype -- hardly an act of creativity. (Compare with eg. numerous cartoon variants of the shisa, which are clearly creative and copyrightable.) And if the original is not copyrightable, neither does taking a picture of it nor tracing it into an SVG change that. Jpatokal (talk) 13:17, 15 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
The link to the archetype 3d version of this that this is a exact 2d representation? I think translating a 3d carving/statue into a 2d vector art is an act of creativity. I'm quite sure that translation carries with it copyright status. Any case-law, legal proof or established policy here that to backup that assertion? — raeky (talk | edits) 13:22, 15 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Theres a ton of pictures of Shisa but I don't see any ancient statues/carvings that this 2d art could be considered an accurate faithful reproduction of, and again, this is hardly a photograph of a statue, it required the creative expertise and skill of a 2d artist to create, so I'm pretty sure it carries a copyright even if it's very close to a 3d statue/carving. — raeky (talk | edits) 13:26, 15 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Delete Even the most exact copy like a photograph would still have copyright. You'd have to show older identical 2D representations here. I wouldn't be surprised to see this was a copy of older work, but a very quick glance through Google Images shows nothing appropriate.--Prosfilaes (talk) 18:26, 15 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    • I think I agree with Prosfilaes's assessment here. Though the basic design of Shisa (and, no doubt, a massive number of Shisa) is (are) in the public domain, someone could very easily claim copyright on this image. Demonstration that this 2D design existed hundreds of years ago, which is possible, would solve the issue. Compare- though Michelangelo's David is in the public domain, I could take a load of photographs of it, then not allow anyone else to use them. Equally, it's possible that this design is a recent one. Japanese copyright law does not allow full freedom of panorama for this sort of thing, so unless we can prove that the design is public domain, it's going to need to be deleted. J Milburn (talk) 12:27, 16 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Comment This RfD page is linked from two different images (from File:Convenience_store_Shisa_in_Isigaki_island_Japan.jpg and from File:Shisa face.svg), I think two different issues are mistreated as one. First issue is about original Flickr image. This original Flickr image is in some aspect similar to Category:Restaurant signs, Category:Signs and so on. And Second is about 2D svg extracted from first image (that's very nice. I like it. but problem is not the quality...). Shisa itself is very old historical icon of Ryuku(name of series of islands locate in south-west of Japan). But at the same time, this image itself is showed in signboard of small shop in Ishigaki, Okinawa. This looks difficult case. I think first is OK but second is not OK. --Was a bee (talk) 14:35, 16 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    • If a restaurant sign contains a copyrighted element and you take a picture of just that sign you're creating a derivative work which is against our policies. Some of the pictures in Category:Restaurant signs probably violate COM:DW. For example File:Jonrevs kfc sign with mods.JPG the Colonel Sanders art looks like it was in use in the early 50's which means its probably still under copyright, so that specific image is a derivative work, and needs deleted. Same principle here, if the SVG version of this artwork you think is not OK, then the photograph of the artwork is also not OK by the policy at COM:DW. — raeky (talk | edits) 14:54, 16 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
      • If you think so, I do not deny it:>. But there are many such images. Maybe hundreds of thousand. Almost every photo in Category:Times Square, Akihabara must be fixed or deleted. --Was a bee (talk) 15:21, 16 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
        • Just means we have a lot of work to do to clean things up. A picture of a street like Times Square isn't an issue, so long as your not solely focused on one copyrighted image, de minimis applies. — raeky (talk | edits) 15:24, 16 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
          • Yes. If your logic is adopted, it looks that firstly you have to request for deletion about some of your uploaded images(File:Tylenol bottle closeup crop.jpg). Your saying means such things? By the way, Mushroom and nature photos are very impressive. I like it. :> --Was a bee (talk) 15:43, 16 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
            • Thats a different matter entirely, the Tylenol logo isn't copyrighted just trademarked. Simple geometric shapes and fonts can't be copyrighted. — raeky (talk | edits) 16:25, 16 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
              • I see. I think issue is not the extraction of small part or portion from such s label or signs but a extraction of whole part or portion of such a label or signs. Other example is, sorry, File:Jeff Pasek - Portrait of an Artist.jpg. Extracting his painting from this photo and selling it on eBay may be not OK. So How and Where should we set the borderline, That is the problem, I think. --Was a bee (talk) 17:14, 16 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
                • Thats where the policies COM:DW and COM:DM come into play. The focus of that picture is the artist, a portrait of him in his studio with some of his artwork around him. If you was to take that picture and crop one of the paintings then you'd be in violation of those two policies. But as a whole the focus of the picture isn't the paintings but the artist so the whole picture is fine. The key thing here is what is the primary focus/subject of the picture. Is it something vague like a storefront or street that just so happens to include a copyrighted element, or is it zoomed in and just that copyrighted element. — raeky (talk | edits) 18:22, 16 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
                  • Focus of the picture. Yes, that would be good criteria. If so these should be deleted. But already pointed out sometimes at above, I am not confident either about where the original image of this sign comes from. To say creativity. Because this design is typical representation of shisa. Anyway trademark problem resides. This design is on small shop's signboard (although this image may not be registered). So deletion would be nice answer. Thanks:>--Was a bee (talk) 22:46, 16 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I see three possibilities, the good, the bad, and the ugly. The good is that it could genuinely be an PD-Old work that both of those have independently derived from, the bad is that it could be a black and white small-scale rendering of our very SVG, and the ugly is that it could be something copyrighted by the strict letter of the law that has leaked into the public consciousness and is now being used extensively without license. Your site unfortunately is a collection of stuff from miscellaneous sources, so that doesn't help a lot. Maybe we all source back to some 1980s package of clipart or something.--Prosfilaes (talk) 20:06, 29 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    • So? We aren't arguing that the lion-dog, like the dragon, doesn't date back a long ways as a cultural icon. We're arguing that this particular rendition of the lion-dog is modern, just like many renditions of the dragon.--Prosfilaes (talk) 06:55, 18 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

See the search, see Commons:Deletion requests/Image:Borloo- Fillon - Lagarde Une 500.jpg.

The images come from various creators, most images are not free for commercial reuse and should be deleted. I dont identified them individually because ALL images are not licensed for modification and so non of the images is free. This is the deletion request number X, hopefully we can finally resolve this.

What about this? It says that pictures from the premier ministers press service are free to use (second paragraph). --PaterMcFly (talk) 16:03, 13 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
This was adressed in previous deletion and I mentioned it above: This images are (presumably) free for commercial reuse but not licensed for modification. --Martin H. (talk) 16:21, 13 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. The licensing terms for the photos from the Prime minister service have varied over the years, along with the governments. it is necessary to refer to the terms of release applicable to each era. Many (perhaps most) of the images listed above seem to be from the Jospin government era, and they were, at the time, released under the following terms : "Les photos du Service photo du Premier ministre, soit près de 1 500 clichés, sont à votre disposition, libre de droits. Vous pouvez en disposer gratuitement aussi bien pour une utilisation personnelle que professionnelle, à condition que la mention "Service photo du Premier ministre" soit indiquée." [12] (Personal translation: The photos from the Prime Minister's Photo Service, i.e. some 1500 photos, are at your disposal, free of rights. You may use them for free, as well for personal and for professional use, on the condition that the mention "Service photo du Premier ministre" is indicated.) This has been considered on Commons to be an attribution license. The other deletion request to which the nominnator refers dealed with different, more recent, photos, which were covered by the newer, different, more restrictive terms. The newer, restrictive, terms do not retroactively annihilate the permissive licenses that had already been granted earlier for the photos that were released in the previous years. If some images are specifically spotted that fall under the era of the restrictive terms, they can be deleted, but a mass deletion is not appropriate for the photos that are freely licensed. -- Asclepias (talk) 17:30, 13 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Careful!! For the Jospin images you translate "libre de droits" with free of rights, thats incorrect! See fr:Wikipédia:Ressources_libres: Libre de droits has nothing to do with free content in our definition. This images are protected by copyright (not free of rights) and they are free for reproduction under royalty-free conditions but we dont know if they are free for modification, we must assume that they are not free enough. Also this was mentioned by Steff in the above linked deletion request Commons:Deletion requests/Image:Borloo- Fillon - Lagarde Une 500.jpg which also contained Jospin images. --Martin H. (talk) 18:16, 15 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
 Keep - people do not like to say "you are free to distort this photo in any way you want" when it comes to portraits; the insistence by Commons on that kind of language is not useful. /Pieter Kuiper (talk) 13:42, 4 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
This has been going on since august, with no consensus for deletion, and indeed a majority of "keep" votes. I suggest we end this discussion, keep the images and just move on. JJ Georges (talk) 12:07, 9 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
They don't comply with Commons policies, see Martin H. above, so we can't "just move on". Hekerui (talk) 13:38, 9 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Are we supposed to go on until a consensus if found for the deletion ? If so, that's not what I call a fair debate. No consensus has been found for the deletion in several months, so we should just abandon this proposal. JJ Georges (talk) 13:40, 11 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keeping this files and thereby confirming that {{Attribution}} is valid will be wrong because it is simply not true. The images, per the previous deletion requests, are eligible for speedy deletion, the purpose of this is to review it. However, besides invalid arguments that are already denied at previous discussions, besides a "i dont care at all" comment by Pieter and besides two voters who even agree to the wrong arguments or the "i dont care about copyright" argument by PK there is no argument against not speedydeleting the images. So just move on and nuke them, this images are not eligible for inclusion in the first place. --Martin H. (talk) 13:49, 11 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
It appears, anyway, that there is no consensus whatsoever on this, so apparently the deletion request has simply failed. JJ Georges (talk) 14:19, 11 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Deleted, according to Wikipédia:Ressources_libres "libre de droits" is not free enough for the images to be used at commons. Kameraad Pjotr 20:22, 13 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I do not want this image deleted, but it was tagged "speedy" and this is the only way to do this properly. This is not a copyrighted image, shisa by the thousands adorn everything in Okinawa prefecture, much like tikis in Hawaii and pyramids in Cairo. --Kintetsubuffalo (talk) 06:45, 13 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
