The file lacks valid license, and it's unclear if any of the revisions are licensed as PD or not AzaToth 00:43, 19 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Clearly speedy keep. This is a testing ground for SVG, none of the files uploaded here are permanent. Fry1989 eh? 00:44, 19 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
They are in the revision history, thus they are permanent. AzaToth 00:49, 19 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
See below. I told you they weren't permanent. Fry1989 eh? 18:53, 24 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Well, yes, ... taken strictly this file is unlicensed. All revisions are probably pd or some free license (but author/src usually not mentioned). We should have a admin bot delete the file revisions every day ;) --Saibo (Δ) 00:51, 19 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
The problems making svg-files for wikimedia commons and other wikis are enormous. Not every svg-file can be uploaded to wikimedia because of the specific requirements that the wiki-pages demands. I cannot tell how much time I have spent trying to figure out why the file that looked good in Inkscape looked so bad on Wikimedia. Until somone pointed out the page that we are talking about. The page is an indispensable tool for making good svg-files for wikimedia. For more information see a previous post that I have pasted on my own talkpage: Important Note. Citypeek (talk) 07:59, 19 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Most problems can be detected with Commons:SVG Check (be sure to also enable the error check) - but it resembles not all problems MediaWiki has with SVGs. w3 validator should also be used. Anyway, we need a real test area - somehow - since the other tools are not sufficient. Cheers --Saibo (Δ) 12:36, 19 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I would challenge if it's really most problems. A lot of the font problems only become visible with scaling (thumbs), which is not supported in the tool. Yes, we want/need a realistic testing ground and I am sure nobody would object if old revisions (and actual files) got deleted after a week or so. (Which is actually the advantage of having one testing ground for everything and not a lot of them spread all over the place) Iridos (talk) 15:00, 19 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
As I just see now, the first version of this file is from August this year, so obviously it already is periodically deleted, so nothing is permanent in the revision history. Perhaps someone involved in the technical side of those deletions would like to comment (and I guess then we can close this request) Iridos (talk) 15:08, 19 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Kept: It obviously serves an important purpose, and time is needed to figure out the technical side. In the meantime, there is no need to keep this nomination open. However, the grounds of nomination are valid -- it's not clear to what extent all the images in the revision history are released into the public domain (I also suspect many of these tests were ultimately uploaded under a free license, not as PD, which raises another problem). There is surely a technical solution, other than relying on someone with spare time occasionally manually deleting some of the backlog in the revision history, to address the issues raised in this nomination. As Saibo suggests, it would be great if a bot could regularly delete the revision history. I think it goes without saying that this keep is without prejudice to a future nomination for deletion, if a solution is not implemented. Skeezix1000 (talk) 23:42, 26 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I tried to clean up a bit: Deletion caused an deletion error but did work apparently. What not worked: the restore of the page versions - anyway - not really needed. If someone needs ask me. ;) Probably due to the many versions. Maybe we should switch to a new name. ;) I did the same to File:Testfile.svg now. Strange: although it had far less versions it still has shown a deletion error (all gone anyway) --Saibo (Δ) 00:09, 27 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hey JoKalliauer, I deleted only the first file, because due a bug this file can't fully deleted anymore. (Maybe now with some other method as the regular.) -- User: Perhelion 14:49, 18 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@Perhelion: Thanks. In my opinion StrekenProvincieUtrecht1_soso does not agree with Cc-by, there should be at least a link to the filedescriptionpage File:StrekenProvincieUtrecht1.svg, or naming the autors. I neither linked it correctly, nor named the autor. But I'm shure User:Glrx won't charge me, that I didn't cited him correctly on File:Test.svg. Therefore resolved in my opinion.

Delete my old photo, i upload in my old account vickynorum. I haven't had an account since 2008 — Preceding unsigned comment added by Vickynorum85 (talk • contribs) 21:52, 21 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Why should it be deleted? - Infrogmation of New Orleans (talk) 21:56, 21 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

this photo is mine and was placed by me in 2008, in an account to which i no longer have access to vickynorum. i want to remove the photo because it was for wikipedia in 2008, as my band the text was not approved the photo was abandoned at wikicommons. I want the photo to be removed and deleted because we are not famous musicians and I am in the photo — Preceding unsigned comment added by Vickynorum85 (talk • contribs) 01:38, 22 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Delete Low res photo of non-notable band. Minimal if any in-scope usefulness. Support courtesy deletion. -- Infrogmation of New Orleans (talk) 13:49, 22 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Delete - Whilst licences are irrevocable and whilst it is categorised under Category:Music in 2008 - the file is of low/poor resolution and the guy in the image is non-notable anyway so given the aforementioned issues the file wont ever be used on or off wiki so in this specific case I too support a courtesy deletion.
Please also be aware Vickynorum courtesy deletions are very rare and never ever happen unless there's mitigating reasons so please don't upload files and then change your mind etc, Thanks, –Davey2010Talk 21:49, 30 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Keep - Well given the user has now go on from personally attacking people to canvassing I'm placing myself here. The file is of non-notable people however it's categorised under "Music in 2008" as it shows an image from that era.
This might seem spiteful but if the user wants to blatantly personal attack people and then canvas then no I don't see why a courtesy deletion should continue.

My belief has been that all Tom and Jerry cartoons are copyrighted, that none are in the public domain. I do not know how to check the copyright status of this cartoon, but I think it might be a good idea to err on the side of caution and remove this screenshot until proof that Puss Gets The Boot is actually a public-domain cartoon is given.

I feel that official identity papers of a live individual (i.e., not of any historical interest) should not be published on Wikipedia (or anywhere else).
  1. It is likely to constitute a breach of privacy. In this case, the fact that his family approved of publication matters little; the individual himself obviously did not have a chance to express his opinion. Further, no effort was made to remove personal information (like date of birth, registration number).
  2. It provides a convenient reference for counterfeiters.
  3. Substantiating facts on Wikipedia is (as I understand) normally done by citing reliable sources, not by researching artifacts and publishing reproductions or original reports about them. So it would be enough, for example, to cite an article published in a major newspaper.

The logo is a registerd trademark or at least a copyrighted image. The fact that a template exists that can be used to suggest that image is in the public domain doesn't make it so. Using that template only means that someone thinks the image is in the public domain. There's no proof given that is in fact in the public domain and the disclaimer on the website of the NS suggests otherwise. Until it is 100% proven that this image is in the public domain, it is not.

And File:Memorial Lost at Sea in Vagur Faroe Islands.JPG

This is a 1977 work. This image infringes on the copyright belonging to the sculptor or his heirs.      Jim . . . . Jameslwoodward (talk to me) 10:04, 19 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I don't agree! This statue is a memorial, located in a public place in a village in the Fareo Islands. As far as I know, we don't have so strict rules in the Faroe Islands regarding photos of statues made by Faroese sculpturors. There are several other photos of Faroese statues and memorials here on Wikimedia Commons and else where on the internet.
Here is one example of a photo (taken by me) from this place, but from the street Vágsvegur, you can see the memorial here from a distance: Geolocation.ws

I can add to the information about this place, that it is a very important place for the village Vágur. Several cememonies are held here every year: On 12 March we celebrate the return of our national bird Tjaldur (Oystercatcher), on 25 April we gather here to here speech and to sing in order to celebrate our national Flagday. In the end of June every second year we celebrate the festival Jóansøka here (every second year it is held in another village, Tvøroyri). The students are celebrated here when they end their education. At Christmas time we have a X-mas tree here and gather to sing and celebrate with Santa Claus etc. In November we gather here to remember and honour our dead who lost their lives at sea. I started a new page here about this place, but you deleted it strait away. Why? I planned to upload other photos regarding this place, not just about the statue but also about the events on this place, I thought that they might have public interest. Kind regards EileenSanda (talk) 13:36, 19 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

As a general rule, any photograph of a copyrighted work is a Derivative Work and requires permission of the creator. This is true for all works -- architecture, sculpture, paintings, literary works, and so forth. There are exceptions in some countries, but they do not apply in Denmark. Unless you can show that the Faroese copyright law is different from the Danish law, or can obtain the permission of the sculptor, these two images must be deleted.      Jim . . . . Jameslwoodward (talk to me) 13:46, 19 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Hmm, if Commons:FOP#Denmark applies for the Fraoe Island too this image should be deleted because its an artwork an not a building. --JuTa 13:44, 19 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I have just read the end of the Danish law at page 35 in the link above, provided by Ta, it says in Section 3 (4): "This Act shall not extend the the Faroe Islands and Greenland." I will try to find the Fareose law, but as you can see, the Danish law does not apply to the Faroe Islands. EileenSanda (talk) 14:41, 19 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I would certainly prefer to keep the images of the sculpture, but it is hard to believe that there is no effective copyright in the Faroes. Note carefully, that, as I said above, FOP is an exception to the general rule that all works have a copyright in (as far as we know) every place but Afghanistan.
Also, please read the sections on page 35 again -- the cited law may apply to the Faroes. My educated guess is that it, or its predecessor, does apply there.      Jim . . . . Jameslwoodward (talk to me) 22:02, 19 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Of course the Faroe Islands has a law regarding copyright, we are not like Afganistan! I have searched on the internet and found the law, it is here (written in Danish): US.fo, I think that §24, stk. 2 is the most relevant part. And as I read it, there is no problem as long as the art work is placed in a public place and the photo is not meant for sale, but just for information or for a newpaper article etc. The text says in Danish: Stk. 2. Kunstværker må afbildes, når de er varigt anbragt på eller ved en for almenheden tilgængelig plads eller vej. (...) In English: Paragraph 2. Artworks can be depicted when they are permanently affixed to or by the public of available space or road. (Google translated). §20 says in Danish: "§ 20. Når et værk er udgivet, eller når et eksemplar af et kunstværk af ophavsmanden er overdraget til andre, må de udgivne eller overdragne eksemplarer vises offentligt." In English that means: "§ 20 When a work is published, or if a copy of an artwork by the author are transferred to others, the published or transferred copies may be displayed publicly". Well, what do you think? As I understand this law there is no problem here, the artwork is not longer owned by the artist and it is placed in a public area in a park which is next to the main road in the village Vágur. The law also says else where that people should use common sence and that the artist should be mentioned if photos of his/hers artwork are published (those were not the excact words, the law is not only regarding art work like this sculpture but also about litterature, music, films, plays etc. Regards EileenSanda (talk) 23:35, 19 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
By the way, I can't ask the artist himself for permission to publish a photo of the memorial, which he made in 1977, he died in 1988. But as I mentioned above, I don't think that this photo is against the Faroese law, not as far as I understand the law.
I am sorry, but the exception in the law is not enough for Commons. It seems (regarding works of art) to be the same as in Finland. Images at Commons are required to be available for commercial use, e.g. for use on T-shirts and in books printed and sold.
Regarding permission, you can still ask the heirs of the author. If commercial use of similar photos is not a significant source of income, they might agree it is more important to make the art known also through Wikimedia Commons and Wikipedia.
It might even be possible to change the law (in the long run). In e.g. Sweden the exception covers commercial reuse. It is about the income of artist on one hand and the interest of the public on the other. I think the artist usually gets the main compensation right away (when the statue is erected), and provision for e.g. postcards sold is of little significance, while restricting photography and publishing is a nuisance.
--LPfi (talk) 07:50, 20 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Our colleague is correct. A prohibition against commercial use ("NC" in our license jargon) is not allowed on Commons.      Jim . . . . Jameslwoodward (talk to me) 11:58, 20 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Well, then there is not much I can do about this, is there? I don't don't know if the sculpturor had any children, he came from a very small village in the Northern Islands of the Faroes, I come from the southernmost, I can't find anyone from his village Mikladalur with the same lastname Joensen, so I don't know what to do. I don't see any big commersial purpose for these two photos, postcards could be the only thing, but not significant. I can't imagine that the artist would mind that photos of his artwork were published here so more people could admire his work, in this village there are only 1400 inhabitants. Anyway, I don't know if I should try to find out if he had children and is so I could ask them if they mind, I will see. How long time is there before the images will be deleted? EileenSanda (talk) 13:55, 20 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
If you want to do the research, and perhaps learn something at the same time, it is likely that the sculptor left a will, which will name his heirs, or, in most countries, if he died without a will, then there will be court order that will give the distribution of his estate. Any of that will be on the public record. With that information you can probably find the heirs.
I am sorry to say that several of the arguments you make above are explicitly covered in our policy at Commons:Precautionary principle.
In the ordinary course of events here, the images will probably be "deleted" on October 26. I put "deleted" in quotes, because we do not actually ever delete anything -- we simply make them unavailable to anyone but an Administrator. They can very easily be undeleted if you get permission later. Good luck.

From the web hits we have for this image so far, the Flickr site seems clearly to have priority, as it was posted there already on October 24, 2006. What I find a little bit strange is the beveled line behind the head of the depicted; eventually the original image was analogue and it's a scratch on the print or even on the film. Anyway, a Google image search for "Shu Qi 最好的時光" and "舒淇 最好的時光" did yield only the Flickr users pages, no other hits. Taken together with the other images from the same event, as linked above by Алый Король, I think we have no solid reason not to believe that this image is the own work of the Flickr user.

(...) uses of a work already disclosed to the public shall be permitted without the author's consent and without payment of remuneration, provided that such uses conform to proper practice, are not at variance with the normal exploitation of the work and are not prejudicial to the author or to the owners of the exploitation rights (Romanian Law on Copyright and Neighboring Rights).

  • Keep - I had to jump through bloody hoops to get that Arabic text right. I changed the license from {{PD-simple}} to {{PD-Libya}} because it seemed logical. I don't actually know what the legal position is given what's going on in Libya at the moment.

  • The only way this could be PD under PD Libya is if "It is one of "official documents such as texts of laws, decrees, regulations, international agreements, legal judgements and various official documents"" since everything else is dependent on time and the seal was just created in, I believe, March of this year. Currently, the main websites are down for the NTC so I cannot check their documents. User:Zscout370 (Return fire) 15:47, 22 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
From en "The National Transitional Council, supported as the legitimate administration by the United Nations since September 2011, uses a seal to certify official documents". As this is a seal and not a CoA then by its very nature, i.e. certifying official documents, it becomes part of those official documents thereby becoming PD. --Fred the Oyster (talk) 18:32, 22 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

File:Logo_NS.jpg
The logo is a registerd trademark or at least a copyrighted image. The fact that a template exists that can be used to suggest that image is in the public domain doesn't make it so. Using that template only means that someone thinks the image is in the public domain. There's no proof given that is in fact in the public domain and the disclaimer on the website of the NS suggests otherwise. Until it is 100% proven that this image is in the public domain, it is not. And nobody here can be the judge of that, you need unbiased, reliable sources for that. EvilFreD overleg 17:39, 10 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Identical raster version of the vector File:Aiga_parking_inv.svg. Vector is a more appropriate format for this image, and no pages (other than the SVG and an old GIF redirect) link here. BorgHunter (talk) 12:58, 18 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Wrong closure by jcb, as policy states "It is still possible to post a normal deletion request for superseded images (and/or to request deletion of "superseded" images for other reasons)" AzaToth 14:24, 19 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]


Kept. It does no good to delete files such as this -- as you surely know, we actually keep everything, so "deletion" actually means "change status so that only Admins can view it", with no saving in storage. Some potential users off-WMF may not understand SVG, so having the PNG might be useful. Certainly that is not very likely, but since it costs nothing, why not keep it?      Jim . . . .

This photo of a star-shaped drawer pull was taken from Google and uploaded with a false Free Art License claim, and I tagged it as a copyright violation. The problem tag was removed, and the {{FAL}} tag replaced with {{PD-ineligible}}. As a deliberately lit and clearly post-processed photograph of a three-dimensional object, I don't think {{PD-ineligible}} applies, notwithstanding the fact that one surface of the depicted object constitutes a simple geometric shape.

Considering I think I explained quite clearly in the last nomination why {{PD-ineligible}} does not apply, the rationale for closing the nomination is hardly satisfactory. LX (talk, contribs) 15:10, 19 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Look at the full resolution version of the file. Again, it's a photo of a three-dimensional object, taken at a slight angle with lighting and cast shadows. Photographs of three-dimensional objects are not ineligible for copyright protection. This is well-established policy on Commons. See, for example, Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag#This does not apply to photographs of 3D works of art, Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag#Photograph of an old coin found on the Internet, Commons:Deletion requests/Image:Athelstanobv2.jpg, Commons:Deletion requests/Image:€2 commemorative coin San Marino 2006a.jpg, Commons:Deletion requests/File:SiegelBalduin.jpg, Commons:Deletion requests/File:Piece de el hadjar.png and Commons:Deletion requests/File:1francobelga1996front.jpg.

We're not judging the full resolution; we're judging the version here. This is not a coin or work of art.--Prosfilaes (talk) 22:50, 19 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
It's the same photo. The full-resolution makes the details of the lighting and the fact that it is a photo of a real-world object more apparent, but resizing it hasn't affected its copyrightability. I'm obviously not claiming that it is a coin or a work of art. A photograph of a coin is copyrightable as a photograph irrespective of the copyright status of the coin itself, because a coin has a three-dimensional aspect to it and will appear differently depending on angle and lighting. This photograph is copyrightable as a photograph irrespective of the copyrightability of the depicted object, because the object has a three-dimensional aspect to it, and there are many different ways in which it could have been lit and photographed. LX (talk, contribs) 05:40, 20 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry, but repeatedly insisting that something is the case without addressing the arguments for why it's not the case is not really all that helpful. LX (talk, contribs) 05:40, 20 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I fully understand your point -- that an image of a PD-ineligible object can (and usually will) have copyright of its own. Our automobile photographs are good examples of this.
With that understood, though, this version of the photograph is PD-ineligible -- all of the things you comment about that are visible in http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/31u25AHPlJL.jpg are missing here. The larger images is well lighted to show the bevels in the star and its depth. I might agree with you with respect to the larger image -- I'm not sure -- but this smaller one seems clearly ineligible. It is small enough so it amounts to a pink star icon with typical icon shadows.      Jim . . . . Jameslwoodward (talk to me) 00:42, 21 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Granted, any photo scaled down sufficiently (think 1×1 pixel) is {{PD-ineligible}}, but stretching that to claim that we can take a copyrightable 488×500-pixel photo, scale it down to 28%, and call it ineligible seems to be a risky position to take. Where did it cross the line (as you appear to think it has), and which kinds of photos does that apply to? How do we explain to new users that they can't just upload any thumbnail from the Internet? I think the truth is actually much more straightforward: anyone who sees File:PinkStar.jpg and the non-free full-resolution version can tell that the former was derived from the latter, which makes it a non-free derivative of a non-free work. If we really need an icon of a pink star (this one is not used and never has been), we have plenty of unambiguously free SVG files which could easily be adapted (e.g. File:Star with shadow.svg).

It certainly is highly subjective and will vary by subject. Images much smaller than this of many subjects would be infringements, but in this case, my eye tells me that the copyrightable detail has been lost. DRs are not votes, but opinion here is running 3:1 against you.      Jim . . . . Jameslwoodward (talk to me) 11:38, 21 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Works by James Bouillé

[edit]

Architect James Bouillé died in 1948. So his work is protected until 2019. As there's no FOP in France, these photos should be deleted.

I do not believe Rozsa-Flores Eduardo took and uploaded this image, especially when a larger version 700px × 470px is available at http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/151/mursa1.jpg/, which is presented as a downscaled 640px × 430px.
