(linked your template proposal) Basicly yes, if we can "make sure the author never claimed authorship." This image is fairly young and still protected if the photographer (or his heirs) claim (or have claimed in the past) authorship since he nearly surely is not more than 70 years dead.

The problem is that the sculptor has a copyright on his work. In some countries there is a specific exemption for photographs of copyrighted sculpture, but not in the USA.

dubious copyright status. Image seems to be directly pulled from rotating lead banner at the college's website at http://hartford.uconn.edu/ Crazypaco (talk) 04:35, 6 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, it is on the banner, and as I am the webmaster and photographer for this campus, I have full rights to use this photo in any and all, printed or digital material to promote or represent the university interests. Also, the photograph does not contain anything that prevents me from releasing this image under the cc license, rather it is more appropriate, not dubious. Tumharyyaaden.

That's cool if you do own the rights. Typically, such photos are property of the university, not the photographer, as they are work performed by the photographer in service of their employer (the university). In fact, the webpage hosting the banner explicitly says "All documents, webpages, photographs and images are the property of the University of Connecticut, except where noted. Permission is required to copy, download or use any text, photographs or image files." That indicates that the photos are owned by, and a copyrighted claimed by UConn, and that only UConn has the authority to release it to a CC license, although I take you at your word that you have full authority to release the photo on a CC license on behalf of UConn. You should consider an OTSR ticket to avoid any confusion, or at least expand on the situation it in the license tag on the photo page, because on first appearance, it looks like a classic copyright rip from a webpage (especially since the text overlay is intact, it is the identical resolution to the web site, and there is no metadata). I won't be the last to assume that, and some may put it up for speedy delete if they run across it. In any case, on good faith, I thereby withdrawal my deletion request, and will make note of such for the others. Crazypaco (talk) 08:02, 7 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Per nom, although even with OTRS permission, I think that the banner across the center of the image puts it out of scope. Deleted.      Jim . . . . Jameslwoodward (talk to me) 14:00, 20 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

This file, a photo of a young Mahathir Mohamad (born 1925), claims to be free under British copyright law. Even if we accept that British copyright law applies to the photo, the file description lacks sufficient information to make out a claim to being free. No information is given on when the photo was made available to the public. Given that Mahathir only became prominent in the 1960s, it is most probable that it didn't become public until at least then, making any pre-1941 publication claim improbable.

claimed "own work, public domain", but picture of presumably copyrighted product design/label...no evidence uploader has company authority to release. Unused (was used only on .en page deleted as hopeless advertising for this company/product DMacks (talk) 09:50, 6 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Body Soul Mind:to DMacks
What do I need to do to prove that I have the rights to publish this image and use it any way I chose? Don't criticise, this article is not an ad, it is intended to give people objective information. If you wiki it,you'll see that Advertising is a form of communication intended to persuade an audience (viewers, readers or listeners) to purchase or take some action upon products, ideas, or services. This article does no such thing, it is still under 'construction", and other languages are coming.
Please, clarify what you mean by "Unused", because I started working on it last night, so no wonder! Give me a chance.

Plese, help with advice or let me know what proof you require for the images to be kept on wiki.

To DMacks:

I just read about the rules, as I am new here, and I see your point. Let me try again, and if I skrew up this time, I'll try again, I am learning. However, I do have the right to publish the picture. Please, don't delete. Ask for proof first.

We definitely do need some proof. Do you work for the company whose product this is? Does the company really intend that their product image become publicly usable for any and all uses by anyone anywhere (including uses that may adversely affect the product/company reputation)?

Potential problematic with fr:Fichier:Logo_CR_Midi-Pyrénées.svg which demonstrate that there is no free use allowed. But does it fit "creative works" ?

Does an 1891 photograph really meet 'life of the author plus 70 years' requirements? Chase me ladies, I'm the Cavalry (talk) 19:21, 6 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Does the UK have a law like {{PD-EU-anonymous}}? And does this meet its requirements? Otherwise, I generally go with the rule of thumb of 150 years; they made it at 20, lived to 100 (another 80), plus the 70 after death.--Prosfilaes (talk) 00:21, 7 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Unsourced photograph; nsd removed by another user. Item is almost certainly old, but we have no proof of publication date, not creation date. This is precisely why we need the source. Magog the Ogre (talk) 14:45, 6 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete: No source, no date, no author. Without a source, there is no evidence that the image was first published in China.

  •  Delete - No source given to validate any claims of the image. The majority of the Chinese were still sporting pigtails until a few years have passed after the revolution led by Sun Yat Sen (i.e. 1911). Their fashion have not changed much between that time and the mid-19th century. This could have been a photograph taken in the early 20th century by a foreigner, and published in the UK or US (or pick your favourite non-China country) immediately or several years after it was taken, or left in his private photo album until his heir or whoever bought the book at a garage sale and distributed/published it on the web.

 KeepThe image was originally used in the article about Khalid Saeed, whose death was one of the main catalysts for the current 2011 Egyptian protests. He is now one of the slogans for the protest, with the "We are Khaled Said Movement" (Said being another spelling of Saeed) being an example. This image is from his autopsy after his death, likely taken by the forensic examiner. It was released onto the internet somehow in June of 2010 and it caused a major amount of worldwide criticism and backlash against Egypt and the image itself was spread around the world, becoming viral. Because of this, I feel that the image is significant and should be used in the article as a representation of this. -- The Egyptian Liberal (talk) 10:31, 10 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Indeed the zoom factor of the picture is strong, but we can see other buildings, we see the Arte headquarters, we see a nice forrest around, we see older and smaller buildings in foreground... Of course the building of the Parliament is huge in the picture, and the authour could have included more data in the foreground (maybe he cropped that), but the composition "could" be a COM:DM. And I repeat it's just my opinion, I let admins decide for the 2nd time ^^ Jeriby (talk) 17:16, 14 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
The filename is File:European Parliament from Cathedral.jpg. It's a photo of the European Parliament. Therefore the European Parliament is not incidental to the picture, and it is not de minimis. See COM:DM. Rd232 (talk) 17:35, 14 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Wow there! too much Latin for our Hessian freundin. And then Rozhin has nothing to do with Baturina's interiors - Rozhin and Co.'s interiors were stripped many many years ago.

Colani derivatives No. 2

[edit]


These Files are derivatives of copyrighted works by Luigi Colani. The originals are not exempt from copyright protection as they are not articles of daily use but prototypes. Freedom of panorama does not apply. The images need to be removed as we do not have a licence to publish and distribute derivatives of the original artist's works.

See also Commons:Deletion requests/Colani derivatives --Wikipeder (talk) 22:29, 6 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I've looked into that. They have never been produced but are still unique prototypes/studies, only that some were licenced to drive on the street. That does not turn them into utilitarian objects, though, I'm afraid. --Wikipeder (talk) 23:07, 6 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Alle von mir (User:StromBer) gemachten "Colani-Aufnahmen" (bis auf [[Datei:ColaniUbootmodell~.jpg]] und [[Datei:ColaniDampflokModell.jpg]]) wurden in Karlsruhe in der Nancyhalle bei der freien Ausstellung gemacht. Mir ist der Löschantrag unverständlich, für jedermann war diese Ausstellung zu besuchen, es war kein Schild mit "Fotografieren Verboten" oder ähnlichem aufgestellt. Sinn und Zweck der Ausstellung war es, die Werke von Herrn Colani jedem vorzustellen. Insofern führt Wiki diese Ausstellung im kleineren Detail weiter. Werke die Herr Colani nicht präsentieren wollte, denke ich mir, wurden auch nicht ausgestellt. Ansonsten müßte der ganze Colani-Artikel zerpflückt werden, weil ja jedes Werk beschrieben/aufgeführt wird. --StromBer (talk) 10:01, 7 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Schon klar, dass Colani wollte, dass seine Werke in der Ausstellung gesehen werden. Damit hat er aber keine Lizenz erteilt, zweidimensionale Repros seiner Werke zu verbreiten und weltweit kommerziell zu nutzen. Genau so eine Freigabe bräuchten wir aber. Fotografieren darf man fast alles, aber veröffentlichen eben nur mit Erlaubnis der Rechteinhaber. --Wikipeder (talk) 10:49, 7 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Auch wenn es sich um Protoypen handelt sind sie zum Teil auch in der Öffentlichkeit bewegt worden (Erlkönig). Wie schon oben erwähn entstanden auch meine Aufnahmen während einer Ausstellung in Hamburg, diese wurde in den Medien massiv beworben um "Sehleute" anzulocken. Dabei wurden auch von diversen anderen Fotografen Bilder angefertigt. Keinerlei Hinwisschilder verboten das fotografieren und wenn Colani seine "Kunstwerke" nicht präsentieren wollte hätte er sie in seinen Hallen gelassen. In übrigen ist das fotografieren von Fahrzeugen nach dem deutschen Urheberrech nicht verboten, aich wenn es um Studien handelt (siehe: Benz Patent-Motorwagen). Es handelt sich bein Patent-Motorwagen um einen Nachbau des Originals und ist nie gefahren.--Huhu Uet 19:42, 7 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Wie gesagt: Fotografiererlaubnis ist nicht gleich Weiterlizenziererlaubnis.
For the English readers: StromBer and Huhu Uet point out that Colani had not forbidden to take pictures in the exhibition. That may well be true, but that would not give the photographers the right to publish two-dimensional repros of Colanis work, let alone release them under GFDL/CC. --Wikipeder (talk) 19:26, 7 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Postcards of Italy, post-1950

[edit]

Postcards are tagged {{PD-self}}, but actually appear to be vintage postcards from the uploader's personal collection. At least 70 years must have passed for these postcards to be public domain in Italy, so they are still under copyright. Absent OTRS consent from the copyright-holder, these images should be deleted. Postcards from the same uploader for the years 1963 and 1966 to 1973 have already been deleted. --Skeezix1000 (talk) 13:51, 6 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment: They should probably not be tagged with PD-self, because Commons does not acknowledge the existence of a new copyright for the making of record photographs or scans of pre-existing two-dimensional works. But, other than that, as most of those images seem to have been originally published in Italy before 1976, they should probably be examined on a case by case basis, and see if each passes the test of article 87 + 92 of the Italian copyright law. Which is a somewhat subjective determination. Eventually tag the photos to be kept with PD-US-1996 + PD-Italy. -- Asclepias (talk) 17:27, 6 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Interesting. Is the gist of Articles 87 and 92 that copyright in photographs only lasts 20 years in Italy? --Skeezix1000 (talk) 19:57, 6 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
The law distinguishes two types of photographs. "Simple photographs", defined in art. 87, are protected until 20 years from creation. "Works of photographic art", mentioned in art. 2 (7), are protected until 70 years pma. The catch is to try and distinguish between the two types. -- Asclepias (talk) 20:20, 6 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
You may also see this: Template:PD-Italy --Carlomorino (talk) 13:01, 7 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Although Commons:Licensing states that the rule for "non-artistic" photographs "is difficult to apply accurately, and hence should not be used on Commons" and "Photographs in general enter the public domain 70 years after the author's death, this rule should be used instead." I'm not trying to be argumentative (and would be delighted if we could keep these postcards in accordance with Commons rules), but is there consensus to use the simple photographs rule? --Skeezix1000 (talk) 13:02, 7 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
If the recent discussions over the restoration of the PD-Italy tag do, in fact, constitute a change in the Commons approach to the so-called "simple photographs" from Italy, shouldn't Commons:Licensing#Italy be amended? And shouldn't there be some explanation as to how we have agreed to determine whether an image has "artistic merit or reflections of photographer creativity or personality"? Just because Italian law is ambiguous doesn't mean that the approach on the Commons has to be. The determination should be something that any experienced Commons contributor should be able to make, in assessing whether or not to nominate something for deletion. --Skeezix1000 (talk) 15:36, 7 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
The wording in that COM:L section is obsolete. It was modified in January 2009 (by this edit and the next few edits), in the wake of the first debate where a couple of non-Italian users of Commons argued that their personal opinion about the application of the Italian law was better than that of the whole Parliament and legal community of Italy. Since then, Commons has come to its senses. The wording on the Licensing page should be re-modified accordingly. This brings us back to the starting point and still leaves the situation that you mentioned: "Just because [country X's] law is ambiguous doesn't mean that the approach on the Commons has to be. The determination should be something that any experienced Commons contributor should be able to make [...]" I do not have the answers. Perhaps we could use the experience of the it.wp users. -- Asclepias (talk) 19:29, 7 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Section on COM:L#Italy is now updated. I think that should be kept postcards where {{PD-Italy}} is applicable.--Trixt (talk) 20:42, 9 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for updating it - we can hopefully now avoid some confusion. However, the issue still isn't resolved. Right now, as modified, COM:L#Italy simply tells us that the situation is confusing and we should be careful. Absent some sort of agreed-upon rule of thumb, the application of the 20-year simple photograph rule on the Commons is unworkable. We need a clear guideline to direct us in these situations, consistent with Italian law. Otherwise, the precautionary principle would direct that these images all be deleted - an unfortunate result. This is a tremendous opportunity to ensure that a lot of Italian content on Commons is preserved. But if the law is so complicated that we can never be sure of public domain status, I would think that the images listed above (not to mention many, many others) would all need to be deleted. I would like to avoid that. Any luck canvassing it.wp users? --Skeezix1000 (talk) 14:58, 15 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
To resolve the issue I think we must discuss file for file, if each one is artistic or not. So i ask to close this mass deletion request (if I can of course, despite my edits I'm no so practiced about deletion procedures). Law is crystal clear: simple photographs are 20 years copyrighted and now are free. So we can't mass delete all picture between 70 and 20 years ago--Pierpao.lo (listening) 14:10, 21 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
How is that possible without knowing how to determine the difference between artistic and non-artistic works? So far no one has come forward with any indication of how Italian law makes that determination. If we do it on a case by case basis at this point, with no rule of thumb or principles to guide us, the likelihood is that these images, and many others like them, will be subject to inconsistent and subjective decisions, meaning that there will be doubt as to whether any of them are free or not. At the end of the day, that's a recipe for mass deletion of more images than these. --Skeezix1000 (talk) 14:25, 21 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Just to be clear: I would like to save these images, and others like them, which is why I am spending so much time here, canvassing input at COM:VP, etc. But the general approach on the Commons is that any photograph, other than a pure derivative work, requires some creativity, and creativity implies artistry. Under normal circumstances, I can't see how anyone can argue that these images are not artistic. However, I suspect that Italian law has drawn the line between simple/non-artistic and artistic differently, in a manner that would (hopefully) allow us to keep these images. But we need to know and understand the details of how Italian law makes that determination. --Skeezix1000 (talk) 14:33, 21 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Ok, ok. You have a Point. I'm a layer, not an advocate but a company consultant, so I can do much for it but, again :), I'm still able to use a phone, so tomorrow I'll call a major advocate association proficient in brands, copyrighting and intangible assets right, and, I promise, I'll refer with all my professionalism their complete most prudential (but i think unique too, as usually) professional opinion.
