this is not appropriated picture and not own Pratoprovincia 09:43, 3 December 2011 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Massimilianogalardi (talk • contribs) 09:43, 3 December 2011‎ (UTC)[reply]

  •  Keep --
  • As to "not own" -- It is my drawing. I drew the outlines and text in AutoCAD, saved it as a DWG, then exported it as a Windows MetaFile (WMF) to Corel Photopaint, where I filled in the colors and saved it as a PNG. I have all three files on my computer. My drawing uses information from US Coast Guard drawings, all of which are {{PD-USCG}}.
  • As to "not appropriated picture" -- I am not sure what he means.
  • If he means "not appropriate" i.e. out of scope, it is in use in two articles, illustrating the variety of daymarks used by the US Coast Guard. Although I drew it while editing the WP:EN article Leading Lights, it has been in that article for two years and 14 edits since I last touched it, so others also think it is appropriate. It is also in use at the WP:NL article Lichtlijn. Since I don't read Dutch, I had nothing to do with that.
  • If he means "appropriated" i.e. stolen, I have answered that above.
Finally, this may be retaliation for Commons:Deletion requests/File:Istituto Don Milani 6.jpg. It is the first DR ever against one of my 500+ images and happened nine hours after I tagged one of the nom's files. I note that the user has been blocked twice before for vandalism.

Non-free company / product logo Senator2029 | talk 16:31, 3 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Por si sirve de algo, ayer recibí la autorización expresa de la división legal de Autodesk para usar sus logotipos en Wikipedia, en caso de usarlos con el fin de enlazarlos directamente con la web de Autodesk, no con motivos publicitarios, sino con el motivo de reconocer la autoría de la propia Autodesk enlazando al producto en su página web. Asimismo, la persona que contactó conmigo me dijo que podría hacer saber a los usuarios de Wikipedia que estoy familiarizado con los productos de Autodesk. En otras Wikipedias el uso de este logo lleva años usándose. Aquí el problema es que aún no he encontrado la forma de insertar el tipo de licencia en el archivo en Commons. No sé cómo se edita para poner que es un logo de un propietario y que no es libre sin autorización expresa. Si algún moderador/administrador pudiera ponerlo, me ayudaría.

No FOP in Iran + the building was apparently built recently Petrus Adamus (talk) 19:23, 3 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Not every building is protected by copyright. Just buildings that their utilitarian aspects are overshadowed by their artistic aspects may meet the criteria for copyright protection. AMERICOPHILE 19:38, 3 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Could you please mention some rule describing the necessity of overshadowing artistic aspects? Unfortunately, I don't understand Persian, but in the English translation of the Iranian Copyright Law from January 12, 1970, there is written in the Part I Article 2 (paragraph 7): Works protected by copyright law are as follows: Architectural works, designs, sketches and buildings. I don't see any dependency on an artistic content or value taught there. Probably, we are not allowed to place photos of recent Iranian buildings here on Commons without explicite permission according the prescription. --Petrus Adamus (talk) 19:53, 3 December 2011 (UTC) Contribuition [1] copied from [2]. --Petrus Adamus (talk) 20:36, 3 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
The law may have changed drastically since the 1979 revolution. WhisperToMe (talk) 23:42, 3 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
According to the Wikipedia article it is still valid, just the protection term was prolonged up to 50 years. --Petrus Adamus (talk) 19:16, 5 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Deleted: Unfortunately, per discussion. Architectural merit is evident. 99of9 (talk) 12:26, 10 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Unfortunately, respecting literally the Iranian copyright rules, no pictures of newer buildings in Iran can stay on Commons without explicit author's permission, all of them should be deleted analogically. --Petrus Adamus (talk) 14:08, 10 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

This file was initially tagged by IllaZilla as Copyvio (copyvio) and the most recent rationale was: Clearly not simple text and/or shapes. Copyrighted artwork or ligature taken from an album cover. Sreejith K (talk) 10:12, 5 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

 Keep Text, even a very creative and unusual font, is always PD-Text, so the only thing here that might have a copyright is the tiny hearts and I think they are far below TOO.      Jim . . . . Jameslwoodward (talk to me) 10:36, 5 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: This is not a font and it clearly doesn't qualify as pd-text. It's an original, creative design incorporating multiple points of originality that clearly do not "only consist of simple geometric shapes and/or text". --IllaZilla (talk) 18:56, 18 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I have plenty of experience with this, thank you. The images on that page have been judged ineligible for copyright protection by a court or similar authority. This image has not, so unless you are a judge or some other sort of legal authority the comparison is irrelevant. --IllaZilla (talk) 14:24, 19 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
The purpose of a court is to rule in case of disputes (it's not a TV-show or your all-day's decision-helper). You can't expect a decision for everything. Please point out why this text is more creative than the examples mentioned. If you are a lawyer, let us know. -- RE rillke questions? 20:32, 11 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

IllaZilla says:

"This is not a font and it clearly doesn't qualify as pd-text".

The letters are part of a font -- under USA law, any letter shape, even if very elaborate, and even if specially designed for a single purpose and not part of a complete font, falls under the {{PD-textlogo}} rule. Thus the two words here are definitely PD. As I said above, the only question can be whether the hearts are above the threshold of originality and I cannot imagine that they are.      Jim . . . . Jameslwoodward (talk to me) 16:41, 13 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Please direct me to the text of the law that says "any letter shape, even if very elaborate, and even if specially designed for a single purpose and not part of a complete font, falls under the {{PD-textlogo}} rule." I have never seen such, but I have seen several logos of this nature (that consisted of elaborate lettering designed for a single purpose) deleted from Commons or at the least determined not to be pd-text. The logos of many metal bands, for example, which consist of the band's name written in very elaborate lettering and arranged in elaborate ways (examples: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Ensiferum.svg, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Darkthrone_Logo.png, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:EvLogo.svg) have been deemed non-free in past discussions. By your criteria, a great many musical artist logos and brands would be considered free, when in reality that is not the case. --IllaZilla (talk) 22:58, 22 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Kept From the USCO Circular 32, Blank Forms and Other Works Not Protected by Copyright: "Furthermore, the format, layout, and typography of a work is not protected..." Fancy typography does not give rise to a copyright in the USA. It may in the UK.

Also please keep in mind that trademark protection is much stronger than copyright, so that there is very little case law on the copyright of logos. I would be very surprised if you can point to any case law to support, "By your criteria, a great many musical artist logos and brands would be considered free, when in reality that is not the case," simply because people in the USA do not litigate copyright infringement on logos, they litigate trademark infringement, which is much easier to prove and defend. .     Jim . . . .

Book not from 1888; Worldcat says 1957 Prosfilaes (talk) 23:44, 3 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Worldcat turns up library entries for this book listed as 1957. There are several different people by the name Margaret Laing in Worldcat, but the books ascribed to her on the page facing the title page in the Internet Archive book (see ahead) are dated at earliest to the 1940s. http://www.archive.org/stream/physicaleducatio00lainuoft#page/n11/mode/2up is a copy of this book. It's not dated, but page 8 says "Since the publication of Syllabus of Physical Training in 1933", and I find nothing to imply that it's an updated version of an older book. It'd be unlikely this book is an updated version of an 1888 copy; only M. Laing is mentioned, and she would be extremely old to be updating a book written in 1888 after 1933.--Prosfilaes (talk) 23:54, 3 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Comment It looks like you're right that the book is not so old. However [3] lists the book as "Not in Copyright".

The rest uploads from user Radic90 were copyvios, this also seem to be as is in very low resolution. Oleola (talk) 20:04, 3 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  • This is an interesting case. The "rest" of Radic90's uploads is only one file, which was deleted without discussion as a copyvio; it's difficult to assess what happened with that, since there is no discussion to look back at. This file is used on a number of Wikipedias, so deletion should not be undertaken lightly. However, since the original notification was made on December 3, and it's now December 22, I think plenty of time has passed to permit the uploader (or any knowledgeable editor from the various Wikipedia articles) to come and explain what happened. Since nobody has offered any explanation, I think the time has come to  Delete. -Pete F (talk) 23:26, 22 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  • I agree with the above statement. It was published in PD by the Warren Commission. Evrik (talk) 20:49, 5 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Keep - published without notice in the US. /Pieter Kuiper (talk) 21:56, 6 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Delete The fact that it was published in a government document does not mean that it is free of copyright. Many government documents contain copyrighted material. Federal works are automatically PD only if they were created by government employees in the course of their work. Since this image was taken in Russia, that seems very unlikely. The copyright is owned by the photographer, who may have been Lee Harvey Oswald.
From the USCO's booklet on Copyright Notice:
"Under [the law before 1978], if a work was published under the copyright owner’s authority without a proper notice of copyright, all copyright protection for that work was permanently lost in the United States."
The Warren Commission subpoenaed the photographs in the report, so they were taken from the copyright holder and published without his authority by force majeure. The lack of notice is therefore irrelevant. The photograph is still under copyright, which is probably owned by Oswald's heirs.      Jim . . . .

It's not a mural, it's graffiti --Sailko (talk) 11:23, 3 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
For it to be "graffiti", in the English sense, requires that it be unauthorized. This does not look like that. In order to keep it, we would need to have some sort of proof that it was not authorized by the building owner -- perhaps a later image showing that it had been removed.      Jim . . . . Jameslwoodward (talk to me) 16:50, 5 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Original research, out of scope. FunkMonk (talk) 16:36, 3 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose If anything, if this becomes a "Rebels vs. Loyalist" war, this is a good map, and it is like the Libyan Civil War map used on many pages. If anything, we need to figure out what towns are under SNC/FSA or the Government's control, blue could mean protests, and Red means that the rebels have full or most control. Keep it for a future happening. --Spesh531, My talk, and External links 22:53, 3 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

"We" do not need to figure anything out, we need to reflect specific sources, not just make stuff up. FunkMonk (talk) 23:01, 3 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]


Oppose: Irrespective of the title this image is useful in reflecting the approximate level of de-facto control enjoyed by the internationally recognized (Bashar al-Assad) government in these cities, as defined in terms of resident cooperation or lack thereof with government organs and the ability of government military and police forces to operate in the furtherance of government policy without being engaged by the opposition militia.

While the file description page doesn't currently list the sources of information or definitions used (i.e. what set of reported facts a given coloration or set thereof represents) to compile the map, many of the source documents cited in the Syrian Uprising article (and probably many others not cited there) provide what I would say is sufficient information about "facts on the ground" to construct a map of this sort.
But yes there should be reliable sources justifying the depiction of each city, and a reasonably consistent operational definition corresponding to each symbolic depiction.
Currently (as in this map's model-family File:Libyan_Uprising.svg et al.) there are essentially five different state-indicating symbols : Green (overall gov't control), Red (overall opposition control), Blue (thoroughly contested / situation unclear), Green-with-Blue-Circle (gov't control but somewhat contested or besieged), and Red-with-Blue-Circle (opposition control but somewhat contested or besieged).
It might be helpful to introduce alternate or additional symbols to indicate the state of affairs with greater precision; for example numbers of reported attacks and demonstrations and known (or at least officially claimed) force dispositions in given areas could be specified.

While the title obviously implies that the situation in Syria is that of a Civil War, I think that characterization has become increasingly accurate over the past several months:

Conditional Oppose - the map is good, but for some reason it shows as of Golan Heights are under Syrian rule, which is only partially truth. It should show that the Quneitra Governorate is partially under Israeli control/occupation, in accordance with 73' cease-fire accords.Greyshark09 (talk) 16:45, 4 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose deletion. This is clearly not w:WP:original research#Original_images - the information is overall more or less credible given the main (intensively sourced) Syrian uprising articles. The image does not (overall) "illustrate or introduce unpublished ideas or arguments". The immediate problem is "citation needed" on Commons for the details, but since people will not click on the map to check the reliability of the claimed information, AFAIR (easy to check), the sourcing method in that case was more or less: (1) references in the "main" or timeline article + (2) detailed discussion on the talk page of the map for any disputed cases, with editors pasting in URLs (including some not used in (1)). The filename title should not be a major issue. Firstly, there are clearly many sources that call the events a civil war, so this is one of the main sourced POVs, even though not unique. Secondly, the only readers who discover the filename will be those who click on the image to get more information. At this step, the reader will presumably have already developed his/her own opinion on whether it's an uprising or civil war. If s/he finds cognitive dissonance between a "civil war" image being used for an "uprising" article, then someone could guide him/her to the debate. IMHO it would be good to put the main (latest) references in the description section of the image. In any case, a "move" debate for the Commons name of the image could be justified, but a possible NPOV problem in the image filename (military POV as opposed to civil disobedience POV) is not an argument for deletion.

Support deletion. There's zero verifiable sources of what's going on in Syria. Remember that foreign journalist aren't allowed in the country and the Arab League has withdrawn its mission. This map is therefore completely based on rebels' accounts, which are, by definition, POV. - TaalVerbeteraar (talk) 15:33, 9 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

  • comment. You forgot another source of information: the Syrian government. Also, the "rebels" are not a single political group. Foreign journalists reporting legally from Syria are not the only source of online information. Even if there's only "rebel military" information + govt info, when the government says that it's "removing the last remnants of criminals/terrorists from town X" and the "rebel military" say that they "are in full control of town X", then the conservative interpretation is that the town is militarily disputed. In the Libyan revolution, testimony from Western mainstream media journalists present in a town "fully under rebel control" was generally accepted as giving sourced verifiability to the claim that it was under rebel control. Also, AFAIR, the Libyan govt rarely claimed that it was still in control of a town once it had really lost control, instead it typically claimed that it would "quickly regain control" - or said nothing. Since the map does not predict future political/military control, this meant that there was often consensus between "rebels" and "government" (or the weasel word "regime") on the info needed for the map.
  • In fact, it seems to me that your argument is really an argument for deleting all (or nearly all) of the 2011–2012 Syrian uprising articles, since in your words, "there's zero verifiable sources" for any of these encyclopedia articles. Boud (talk) 22:30, 18 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose : commons is not wikipedia --Loreleil (talk) 03:56, 19 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose : The uprising in syria is a major news story worldwide. As such it has extensive coverage. There are plenty of reliable sources to get this information. As a matter of fact there are independent mainstream media journalists in major syrian cities. Many sneak in risking their lives to tell the world what is happening. If anyone noticed several journalists have been died because of this.Meitme (talk)

Please do not use Support and Oppose in DRs. It is unclear whether you mean "support the image" or "support the deletion" and vice versa -- some people use them one way and some the other. There are two templates available for DRs:

  •  Comment - of course one could rename, but those demands by "True Balance" have no legal basis. I can write "True Balance" as often as I want.

File:Bumpak.jpg and two derivatives

[edit]

File:Bumpak.jpg is the source file of both others.
According to uploader (who has 1 edit) this was "{{self2|GFDL|cc-by-3.0}}" by author="Pavel M". However, the file has no {{LicenseReview}} and: Do you see here a mention of any free license of the paper bag image which was at this source (archive version→) http://web.archive.org/web/20080614031015/http://printfolio.ru/portfolio/14/319.html (doesn't display for me - maybe the frequent problem of wayback machine - according to source code there was: http://printfolio.ru/files/userfiles/Image/portfolio/7/Printfolio.JPG below "Бумажный пакет Printfolio"). I do not see. Instead there is on bottom "© ООО «Компания Принтфолио»".
I suspect this file never was GFDL + cc-by-3.0 licensed (dual licensing would be strange for external websites anyway).
The image cannot be found somewhere else by GI or TE so I assume it could really be made by this company. I have not tagged it copyvio to get a bit more time to ask for permission (which doesn't seem to be impossible) since the derivatives are in heavy use.
I have written the a email to printfolio.ru asking if it would be possible to freely license the image.

Just had a look at http://web.archive.org/web/20080614031015/http://printfolio.ru/portfolio/14/319.html – no display of the image file either... :-( --Aschmidt (talk) 01:16, 4 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
As I (tried to) said this frequently occurs with the Internet Archive. But it is not a problem here - it doesn't matter if we assume if the file was there (which could well be if we look in the source code → Printfolio.JPG in 500 px × 500 px) or not: in both cases we need the permission from the photographer. --Saibo (Δ) 01:41, 4 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

According to what I know, fair use is not allowed on Commons, therefore, it is cause for deletion. The boundary between a simple and a more elaborate logo is thin. For the provision of the hammer and sickle, the book, the initials of the party and the theme, I find it difficult to understand that PD-Simple apply in this case.

Fair use is a exception in US copyright - not a property/fact for a work. So we do not need to discuss if this is "fair use" or not - rather we need to discuss if this is ineligible for copyright protection or not. Fair use is also not claimed by anyone here - so you do not need to tell that fair use is not allowed on Commons. --Saibo (Δ) 18:43, 10 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
