The flickr account has a handful of images, all of which appear to have been uploaded to Commons. Though the CC license is as per Flickr, there is no evidence that the original images are there, and most appear widely available on the internet. A bit more evidence for the sourcing is requried, such as a clear description of the original source or a ticket via OTRS.
I would like to bundle with this deletion request the following associated images:
- File:R. Kelly at the 2011 Pre-Grammy Gala.jpg

Takabeg (talk) 06:57, 14 January 2012 (UTC)
- I'd say delete them all. If I can't find a decent replacement for the clock tower, Konak Pier, and Pasaport Quay on Google Images (and I bet I can), I'll take some myself, since I know where those are. I'll try to figure out where in Alsancak the others come from and replace them too. (I wish I had a decent digital camera, or at least hadn't left my nice film camera in the states.)
- By the way, in the future, do you think it would be possible for you to notify me when you nominate pictures from Turkey for copyright violations? I've been saving the ones you nominate to my hard drive, so I can try to find or make replacements. --Quintucket (talk) 07:42, 14 January 2012 (UTC)

Kept. MBisanz talk 18:42, 15 February 2012 (UTC)
Previously kept because someone thought that it is purely utilitarian. However, it is irrelevant if something is utilitarian or not. Danish copyright law doesn't differ between utilitarian objects and non-utilitarian objects. See COM:TOO#Denmark: this is more complex than both the knife and the chair (which are both copyrighted in Denmark), and thus you can't take photos of it. COM:UA only describes the situation in the United Kingdom, the United States and a few other countries, but not the situation in Denmark. Stefan4 (talk) 18:19, 17 February 2013 (UTC)

- A vehicle may be building and thus covered by freedom of panorama. Quoting from the commented, preliminary version of the law ("Revision af Ophavsretslovgivningen, slutbetænkning fra udvalget vedrørende revision af ophavsretslovgivningen", betænkning nr. 1997, Copenhagen, 1990, page 180), the term buildings in the context of Danish freedom of panorama includes not only houses and similar, but also bridges, ships and similar structures. So why not this thing?
And regarding utilitarian objects, while they may very well be copyrighted, the requirements for something to be a derivative work are stricter. I do not think it is clear whether a photograph of a utilitarian object is a derivative work. Peter Alberti (talk) 19:09, 21 February 2013 (UTC)- Assuming that you mean betænkning nr. 1197 (not 1997), then yes, this sounds reasonable. Apart from bridges and ships, the document tells that

Bestemmelsen må ses på baggrund af, at sådanne bygninger indgår i de miljøer, hvori mennesker færdes, på en så integreret måde, at det i praksis ville være umuligt at håndhæve og adminstrere nogen anden regel.
- All utilitarian objects (such as chairs and knives) are included in those kinds of environments. Shall this mean that all utilitarian objects are to be treated as "buildings", then?
- Reading further down on the page, I see this statement:
Det skal dog her understreges, at reglen ikke indebærer nogen indskrænkning i ophavsmandens ret til i overensstemmelse med god skik at få sit navn angivet i forbindelse med afbildningen, jfr. forslaget til §11.
- I'm not sure how "god skik" is interpreted in Denmark, but in Sweden (where the law uses the the similar wording "god sed"), courts seem to have decided that you don't have to include the name of the author of a work if it would be unreasonably hard for you to find the name of the author. Thus, I'd assume that the vehicle designer has to be attributed if you know who the designer is, but that you can leave out his name if you have no simple way of finding his name and that lack of the name of the author isn't a reason for deletion but that it always is better if the name is provided somewhere on the file information page. --Stefan4 (talk) 19:53, 21 February 2013 (UTC)

Copyvio. This file was uploaded by en:User:Ayça Leovinus on March 28, 2007. And This original image was posted to Wowturkey on November 6, 2005 by ayça_leovinus (in wowturkey.com). en:User:Ayça Leovinus in English Wikipedia was one of the sockpuppets of en:User:Shuppiluliuma. As long as I understand by comparing contribution of User:Ayça Leovinus and ayça_leovinus. Especially field of interest of ayça_leovinus (architecture, archaeology etc) is very different from User:Ayça Leovinus (military etc). On the one hand, in wowturkey.com some users called ayça_leovinus "Ayça Hanım" (Mrs. Ayça, generally Ayça is female name), on the other hand it's clear that en:User:Ayça Leovinus should be male. So I think User:Ayça Leovinus used the name of ayça_leovinus to upload this image and User:Ayça Leovinus doesn't have any right on this image. Takabeg (talk) 14:29, 14 January 2012 (UTC)

russavia (talk) 06:43, 14 January 2012 (UTC) Hi, First of all, thanks for reviewing some articles on wikimedia. To be honest, I have not understood yet the problem with some of my pictures and I haven't got any further explanation on your words (I could see something on the "FOP" link you left) I guess you mean that there are some policies related to the buildings on UAE that my images don't follow. I can say that I took some pictures in there and I have't asked anyone on the UAE if he/she mind about using images of his country. I didn't know I was breaking some rules (I just wanted to contribute with some of my pictures) but in that case, I hardly believe that all of the pictures of the UAE shown on Commons are following that directives So, if it is possible, I just want to know what's the difference between my pictures and "almost every other" picture of UAE shown on wikicommons Thanks for your help, --KeDaO (talk) 23:01, 16 January 2012 (UTC)

** Delete this Pexels-sourced derivative work. focus is on tall buildings. Not a skyline image: for UAE, only true skyline images are fine for unrestricted commercial reuses. See also this Adobe help guide, which lists copyrighted buildings and artworks, their copyright holders or authors, and permitted use in images meant for stock/commercial reuses without authors' licensing permission. For both Burj Khalifa and Burj al Arab, skyline image is only allowed, not close cityscape images. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 06:17, 2 June 2021 (UTC)
- @JWilz12345: I read this page carefully. In this page, I found this sentence. "Cityscape, skyline, or vista photos may be acceptable if no single building is the primary subject." It means that both cityscape photos and skyline photos are allowed. And this page contains outdated content. For example, Atomium in Belgium is allowed now because Belgium has freedom of panorama now, but this page explains that Atomium is not allowed. Ox1997cow (talk) 04:22, 3 June 2021 (UTC)
- @Ox1997cow: slashed my vdel input. While the page is outdated for Atomium, it is still relevant for Burj Khalifa and Burj al Arab, as long as there is no acceptable FOP from UAE. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 09:06, 3 June 2021 (UTC)

- Delete Burj Khalifa from the East at sunrise... - see Explicit's input at Commons:Deletion requests/File:Giant Rubber Duck invades Pittsburgh (10023967385).jpg. The file name already establishes the image's intention: to include Burj Khalifa. The rest of the skyline seems insignificant (making the tower the chief motif). Cropping that tower away will leave this image as redundant to other good Dubai skyline images we already hold. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 06:22, 2 June 2021 (UTC)

- In my opinion, the skylines are not {{Deminimis}}. Every building in these images is copyrighted, it's not in the "sense" of the law to "stack" copyrighted objects and so make them free. The "deminimised" objects have to be "nonessential" and "casual" elements, what is not the case in the skyline photographs. Regards --Ras67 (talk) 21:20, 17 May 2021 (UTC)

- Comment @Jeff G., Ox1997cow, A1Cafel, and Ras67: if some of the images are skylines, then why categorize them here in the first place??! IMO they should be removed from this "reddish" category and confined only to Category:Skylines in Dubai. Once I inquired Bidgee about removal of FoP templates on categories of objects from countries FOP (User talk:Bidgee/Archive13#FoP templates), and they replied that it only causes clutter. They added: "if there was no FoP, there shouldn't be a category for the object/item/building/memorial/statue etc." JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 05:50, 1 June 2021 (UTC)
- @JWilz12345: Lack of freedom of panorama does not mean that we cannot create categories of copyrighted buildings or sculptures. So, why does categories of copyrighted games exist? (Such as Category:StarCraft, Category:Overwatch, Category:Call of Duty, etc...) Ox1997cow (talk) 12:47, 1 June 2021 (UTC)
- If the skyline photo incidentally contains copyrighted buildings, these photos are allowed under de minimis. Categories of buildings or sculptures in countries without freedom of panorama exist for this kind of situation. Ox1997cow (talk) 12:56, 1 June 2021 (UTC)
- @Ox1997cow: see Category:Sólfar (a copyrighted sculpture in Iceland, with all files deleted via Commons:Deletion requests/Files in Category:Sólfar). See also Category:SM City San Pedro. For buildings, they can go under Category:Buildings in Dubai or Category:Skyscrapers in Dubai. This category has been abused IMO, and it seems new uploaders ignore warnings on top. Also if the category needs to be nuked, this should be locked until the year the building falls PD or UAE changes their copyright law. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 13:31, 1 June 2021 (UTC)
- @JWilz12345: That's an extreme case. When uploading to the category of copyrighted things, there is no problem if we follow the warning and upload. Ox1997cow (talk) 14:07, 1 June 2021 (UTC)
- @JWilz12345: By the way, why are you taking the extreme case and giving it as an example? In the previous deletion discussion, you used that only examples of misuse of NoFoP templates were taken as examples, and you claimed that all NoFoP templates should be changed with something like {{NoFoP-Japan}}. Ox1997cow (talk) 14:19, 1 June 2021 (UTC)
- @Ox1997cow: the simple answer is that the {{NoUploads}} are, in my opinion, ineffective. I doubt most uploaders will understand what the template means in relation to copyrighted FOP-reliant works: works like buildings, sculptures, statues, monuments, memorials, and public murals/frescoes. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 14:41, 1 June 2021 (UTC)
- @JWilz12345: My opinion is different. The reason is that many users don't know that freedom of panorama varies by country. Ox1997cow (talk) 14:44, 1 June 2021 (UTC)

To end all this mess because of limited exception (broadcasting programs only) in UAE copyright law, are there any attempts by Wikipedians in UAE and Arab Wikipedians to have FOP introduced in the desert kingdom? At the very least, FOP for architecture only (similar to US and Russian exceptions)? @A1Cafel, Ox1997cow, Ras67, Botev, Jeff G., and Soumya-8974: JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 04:15, 27 July 2021 (UTC)

"Why we are the sole ones who protect Adrian Smith's rights" note that I do not care about Adrian Smith's right, I do not care about UAE law. If I nominate things for deletion I do it to protect users of Commons. This law is unjust, though if for some reason I would have influence on UAE I would start from far worse laws being present there Mateusz Konieczny (talk) 18:03, 28 December 2021 (UTC)

Keep as indiscriminate. Cut out any skyline pictures, they are clearly de minimis. Individually nominate the rest. We aren’t here to “right great wrongs” by protecting the copyright of an architect who has low enough ethical standards to work in a country where being gay is illegal. Dronebogus (talk) 02:32, 3 January 2022 (UTC)
Kept: followed remarks of @Ox1997cow and A1Cafel: and many thanks for your efforts. In some case followed arguments of other users. General skylines kept according consensus. Thanks all for your efforts. --Ellywa (talk) 15:34, 3 January 2022 (UTC)

- @Soumya-8974 and Ixfd64: for a more eternal or longterm approach, has anyone including Arab Wikipedians and Wikipedians based in UAE have taken steps to introduce FOP there, at least "for buildings only" (yellow countries)? I expect dozens of more copyvio images to be uploaded here, including: this one. I'm not sure if people aren't aware of no FOP there or just intentionally "testing our no-FOP policy on UAE". I would also want to suggest filtering out exactly the words "Burj Khalifa" so that new users will no longer be able to upload images either containing the said words in their file names or in their file descriptions, at least temporarily (while UAE has no FOP for photos).

- @JWilz12345: Excessive file name restrictions are bad. Suppose someone uploaded a file name of the Dubai Skyline with Burj Khalifa as "Remote view of Burj Khalifa". Skyline photos with Burj Khalifa are allowed even if there is no freedom of panorama in UAE, as last deletion discussion concluded that they were OK. If you ban the use of "Burj Khalifa" in file names, we won't be able to upload acceptable skyline or cityscape photos. Ox1997cow (talk) 11:57, 3 November 2021 (UTC)
- @JWilz12345: And many people do not know freedom of panorama. I also mistakenly thought that the copyright of a building or sculpture photo belonged to the person who took it, until I saw numerous photos of the building or sculpture deleted from Wikimedia Commons. Ox1997cow (talk) 11:59, 3 November 2021 (UTC)
- @Ox1997cow: no, de minimis photos can still be uploaded, thru titles like "Dubai skyline 20211103.JPG", "Skyline of Dubai, UAE as seen from the Marina in 2019.jpg." If images bearing such file names continue to be uploaded, the location filled with millions of deleted files from late-2006 may become "crowded" in the very distant future. Besides files do not get "deleted" in real life, but rather all "deleted" files are still there, just hidden from non-admins (as per Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) on his reply here). See also w:Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/2006-06-19/Image undeletion on the mechanism of files deleted on Wikipedia (which also applies to all Wiki sites).

- @JWilz12345: You're thinking too extreme. A lot of users will use the copyrighted building name in the file name, but can we ban the copyrighted building name in the file name?

- @JWilz12345: I've known you're an extreme claimant since you had the deletion discussion related NoFoP templates. Even in that discussion, you brought only cases where NoFoP templates were misused and insisted that use of NoFoP templates should only be used in category namespace. Even if use of NoFoP templates is changed to be used in category namespace, there is no guarantee that it will not be misused. Ox1997cow (talk) 15:46, 3 November 2021 (UTC)
- @Ox1997cow: I look on longterm solutions and not "band-aid" solutions. Thus it is best to filter out such names. Actually Commons has already did a version of what you call very extreme approach: indefinite protection of file names that is comonly misused. Example: File:Burj Khalifa.jpg. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 16:21, 3 November 2021 (UTC)

- Keep skyline images. De minimis use of the Burj Khalifa, there’s a precedent for this. The freedom of panorama page of English Wikipedia literally shows a skyline in a non-FOP country. I struggle to see why the images that just show the base aren’t de minimis but that’s not my expertise. The blacked-out version is artistically interesting but a ridiculous solution to a nonexistent problem (buildings are not more copyrighted because they’re famous and impossible not to notice in a generic panorama!)

I concur. Though as the author of the SVG I cannot claim that the curve there is absolutely mathematically correct, it was a manual trace of an earlier bitmap image. I created the present higher resolution .PNG to replace that earlier image.

The cited source does not have this image or anything at all on Louis Boekhout. The cited source is not licensed CC-SA. THe cited author is not the uploader and no evidence of permission is given. Jim . . . . Jameslwoodward (talk to me) 12:06, 14 January 2012 (UTC)
Hello Jim
Louis Boekhout really had his own web page as can be seen by the webcache as of 23 dec 2011 http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8aVxYub2foJ:www.repertoirecultureloutaouais.ca/louisboekhout+%22Louis+Boekhout%22&cd=3&hl=fr&ct=clnk&gl=ca
and it was still up when I uploaded the photo on Commons. The webmaster must have removed the page since Louis Boekhout passed away a few days ago. As you can tell from the webcache, the page contained Louis Boekhout's contact info like his home address, phone number, e-mail address. And since his passing, he obviously can no longer be contacted.
That being said, according to the Canadian Copyright Act, Louis Boekhout is deemed to be the owner of the photograph and copyright holder of his own portrait (person by whom photograph/portrait is ordered), and can use it as he pleases, even commercially. His web page is commercial use, because it is an advertisement of his services and products. And in publicity matters, getting known and recognized is the goal.
Furthermore, the Canadian Privacy Acts also apply. All personal information belongs to the individual, no matter where that information is located, or who holds it. This means that a photograph of an individual can be freely used by that individual, even commercially, no matter who took the picture.
However, in cases where models/mannequins are photographed against retribution, the terms of the contract have precedence.
Canadian Photographers Coalition Lobbyists are complaining against Canadian Copyright Legislation!
Canadian newspapers, magazines, TV stations cannot publish an individual's picture without that person's consent, even if their staff took the pictures. When a person's picture appears in Canadian media, it is after consent was granted. It is usually verbal consent.
There are some exceptions to the Privacy Acts, for example, public figures' pictures can be published by the media without their consent, since they are in the public eye, their information falls under the "Right to Know" principles (Access to Information Legislations).
Yesterday, regional media published the news about Louis Boekhout's passing. They consider this as the public's right to know.
Since Louis Boekhout arrived in Chénéville (QC) in 1969 various media have interviewed him over the years. An authorized biography has been written, and is scheduled for publication in the near future.
In short, this is the situation. Hope this helps,

- Forgive me, but since you are relatively new user (257 global edits, 24 on Commons), we need more evidence than your assertions.
- According to Commons:Photographs of identifiable people permission is not required for photographs of people in Canada in public places. If that is incorrect, this is not the place for the discussion. In any event, it is moot -- if such a rule exists, it would call for deletion of the image, not retention.
- Commons:Licensing#Canada and the law itself says nothing about copyright of photographs of people automatically transferring to the subject. There is a work for hire provision at 13(2) and 13(3), but for that to be effective you will have to show that this image was ordered and paid for. This does not look like a professional photograph -- it is poorly lighted and has a confusing background.
- And, finally, even if the image did appear on the source site when you uploaded it, the source site is not licensed CC-SA or with any other free license, so even if Boekhout did own the copyright, it was not properly licensed at the source.

Art. 40. of the Turkish copyright allows "FoP" only for works of fine arts permanently placed on public streets, avenues or squares.
- Turkish Copyright Law (Fikir ve Sanat Eserleri Kanunu)
Takabeg (talk) 00:12, 15 January 2012 (UTC)
- Actually, File:Istanbul Modern1 franzconde.jpg and File:Istanbul Modern7 rachaelvoorhees.jpg, being outside, would seem not to violate Turkish FOP laws.
- "Art. 40. Works of fine arts permanently placed on public streets, avenues or squares may be reproduced by drawings, graphics, photographs and the like, distributed, shown by projection in public premises or broadcast by radio or similar means. For architectural works, this freedom is only valid for the exterior form."
- This would seem to indicate that those two pictures also don't violate Turkish de minimus laws, however they do violate United States law (and the Wikimedia is incorporated in the USA) especially since based on the title they are taken not to represent the museum front and the sky but the works specifically. I'm not sure which takes precedence, but I'd probably say to just delete them under the precautionary principle unless someone has a really good reason not to. --Quintucket (talk) 09:20, 15 January 2012 (UTC)
Comment Unfortunately, the condision of allowance in the Turkish copyright law is slightly different from others. In related section of the article 40. they especially and intentionally use terms "public streets, avenues or squares" (Umumi yollar, caddeler ve meydanlar). We can find in terms such as open spaces and/or public premises (Umuma açık mahaller) in other sections. Umumi yollar, caddeler ve meydanlar are included in Umuma açık mahaller. But Umumi yollar, caddeler ve meydanlar are not equal to Umuma açık mahaller. Even Turkish-speaking users sometimes confuse them. Takabeg (talk) 09:54, 15 January 2012 (UTC)
- I'm not entirely sure I understand the distinction. But could you tell me about the legal status of a few pictures I've been meaning to take.
- The front of the Izmir Archeology Museum (and once it's reopened, the Ethnography Museum, which is in the same courtyard), which is unless the building is older than 70 years? It's visible from a walkway that I think is on museum property, but not from the street, you have to go right up to the courtyard between the Archeology and Ethnography museums to see it.
- The municipal office buildings, or complex (I forget what they're called, though they start with an "m". Mürdüğlu?), from the square that requires one to pass through security?
- The inside of public transit buildings, such as iskelesi and train stations?
- The inside of malls and piers (not inside the stores, the storefronts), which don't include artwork, but do include logos and such?
- The inside of a Migros?
- Thanks, --Quintucket (talk) 11:40, 15 January 2012 (UTC)
- For architectural works, this freedom is only valid for the exterior form (Bu salâhiyet mimarlık eserlerinde yalnız dış şekli munhasırdır.). Takabeg (talk) 11:59, 15 January 2012 (UTC)
- So first two = yes, last three = no? Interiors of government buildings are a no-go (not that I care about any except the ferries and train stations)? What about signs/train tracks on outdoor metro stations? And what about Migros, since there's no architecture visible, assuming I'm taking pictures of the aisles? --Quintucket (talk) 14:01, 15 January 2012 (UTC)
- For architectural works, this freedom is only valid for the exterior form (Bu salâhiyet mimarlık eserlerinde yalnız dış şekli munhasırdır.). Takabeg (talk) 11:59, 15 January 2012 (UTC)
- The arguments of Takabeg sound very solid to me, and even if in some cases, already pointed out by Quintucket, one could argue that the photos depict "public" spaces and/or they could be kept evoking Commons:De minimis , I think we should follow the precautionary principle. I apologise for forgetting that copyrights apply not only to the authors of the photos, but also to what it's shown in the photos, when I uploaded them. I'll try to be more careful next times.
- PS: @Takabeg: don't bother notifying me if you find more photos uploaded by me that are unappropriated, as I have them of my watched pages and I couldn't agree more with the fine job you are doing pointing out copyright violations. --Stegop (talk) 01:10, 16 January 2012 (UTC)

I got permission to upload this photo when I still had contact with the author. I should have gone through OTRS in the first place to confirm this, but I didn't know that at the time. I no longer have contact with the author and thus I can't confirm his permission to use this image. Therefore I nominate this image for deletion. Tooga (talk) 20:05, 14 January 2012 (UTC)
- Hej Tooga! We don't normally require uploaders to reconfirm permissions for files uploaded before OTRS was established, unless there is some reason to doubt the permission. COM:OTRS was created in late 2006, but I don't think it was widely used yet when you uploaded this in April 2007. If you're comfortable that the author understood and agreed to the permission requirements (to allow anyone to use the photo with or without modifications for any purpose, including commercial purposes), then I see no reason not to take your word for it. If you're not sure, I think we should respect that and delete the file. So, are you nominating it for deletion more as a formality, or because you actually have doubts about the permission's actual validity? —LX (talk, contribs) 18:54, 6 February 2012 (UTC)
- I made it very clear to the author that the image could be used for every purpose, even commercially, and got the authors permission. So yes, this is more as a formality and a way for me to be sure I don't have any legal disputes about this in the future. Mainly considering this is one of two images I've uploaded that haven't made myself. The other image is from the 1912 Olympics (File:1912 Ragnar Wicksell.JPG), and thus I do not worry about it.
- There is actually another issue, however vauge, with this image that I've thought about it. It could be argued that the tifo displayed in the image is copyrighted art. This would also put another of my images at risk. (File:Aik tifo at Råsunda 080424.jpg) It's not art which is permanently displayed, and thus freedom of panorama does not apply. What do you think about this issue, LX? Tooga (talk) 13:14, 7 February 2012 (UTC)
- On File:Derby at Söderstadion 280806.JPG, I'd say that any copyrightable material in the tifo is at such an angle and such a small part of the overall composition that it should be considered de minimis. The banner at the bottom is {{PD-text}}, so there's nothing copyrightable about that. I don't think there's any real issue here. I'm having a bit of trouble seeing what the tifo on File:Aik tifo at Råsunda 080424.jpg is supposed to depict, but I don't there's anything copyrightable about it (apart from the photography itself). —LX (talk, contribs) 15:17, 7 February 2012 (UTC)
::::In that case, I don't think there are any issues left for me to worry about. As the nominator, change my stance to Keep. Tooga (talk) 15:26, 7 February 2012 (UTC)
I can't put this matter to rest if the image is still around. I've created a free alternative for this image myself, so Wikipedia won't have to suffer from this one being deleted. (See File:Söderstadion Pitch and north stand.jpg) Please, I ask of any admin who might see this deletion request to delete the image. I'm currently trying clean up any legal question marks (although it is unlikely I'll ever find myself in a legal dispute due to my images here on commons) in my upload history, and this one is a priority because it isn't taken by myself. Tooga (talk) 16:12, 15 July 2012 (UTC)

Copying part of it: I found out that the sculptor of the Hitsujigaoka statue was Tandō Saka (kanji: 坂 坦道, hiragana: さか たんどう) from this link, and then from his studio website I found out that he died in 1998. Judging from COM:FOP#Japan, it looks like the statue will become public domain in 2048, but for now I assume the copyright is held by his relatives. — Mr. Stradivarius ♫ 23:23, 14 January 2012 (UTC)

If the listed files were all deleted, Japanese wikipedia users would feel strange and the deletion might cause confusion in Japanese wikipedia project.In fact, many pictures of the statue are taken and used for any purpose. And I haven't heard the copyright holder claims copyright violation even for commercial use.--Ykso (talk) 12:59, 19 January 2012 (UTC)
- Yes, File:Hitsujigaoka.jpg can probably be kept as de minimis, but I included it with the other ones for completion. All other ones need to be deleted. Japanese Wikipedia allows fair use of outdoors artwork (see the Exemption Doctrine Policy and the unfree licence template for outdoors artwork). I made sure to upload images locally to Japanese Wikipedia if used there, but left out your picture because I think it might pass as de minimis.

- Comment This artistic work is "permanently located". But whether Hitsujigaoka observatory is considered as an "open place accessible to the public, such as streets and parks, or at places easily seen by the public", is up for debate. Takabeg (talk) 16:20, 29 February 2012 (UTC)
- The problem is that Article 46 limits the usage of artworks to non-commercial purposes: 専ら美術の著作物の複製物の販売を目的として複製し、又はその複製物を販売する場合. The observatory can be accessed by anyone by paying a single coin, which is sufficient in some countries. If the statue isn't sufficiently accessible, ja:Template:屋外美術 might not apply, making them invalid for Japanese Wikipedia. However, the non-commercial restriction makes them incompatible with Commons regardless of whether the hill is accessible to the public or not. --Stefan4 (talk) 16:40, 29 February 2012 (UTC)
- The problem is that Article 46 limits the usage of artworks to non-commercial purposes:
- 専ら means "solely", "entirely", "wholly", "exclusively". The paragraph 4 of the article 46 says "reproduction of an artistic work exclusively for the purpose of selling its copies and sale of such copies." If the observatory is considered as the place thta can be accessed easily, these image can be kept. But in some parks such as The Expo’70 Commemorative Park there is the prohibition on taking photographs. Takabeg (talk) 17:48, 29 February 2012 (UTC)
- That is an interesting observation. I looked at both versions (English and Japanese) and didn't think of what effect exclusively/moppara would have. I think that you may have a point: if someone takes a photo and uploads a photo to Commons, the purpose for taking the photo would usually not be exclusively for the purpose of selling copies of it, but there would also be other purposes such as illustrating a Wikipedia article. This could mean that Commons images are exempt from the non-commercial requirement. Since this would affect some policies (at least COM:FOP#Japan and ja:Wikipedia:屋外美術を被写体とする写真の利用方針), I think that this discussion should be announced more publicly. --Stefan4 (talk) 19:16, 29 February 2012 (UTC)
- Hmm. Actually not only in Wikimedia Projects but in real world, someone who wants to use it freely, explains that Article 46 may allow taking photographs freely, on the other hand someone who claims his/her copyrights explains that the Article 46 may prohibit taking photographs or allow only taking photographs but don't allow distribute photographs. Considering the risks, I personally think we have not to permit them. In any case, I think 写り込み (when the concerned subject is not as main subject) should be permitted.

- Delete, except for File:Hitsujigaoka.jpg where the artwork is de minimis. The paragraph 4 of the article 46 prevents the uploading to Commons of photos in which this statue is the centrepiece, because they are not freely re-usable. The existence of such photos on the Commons itself is not legally problematic, but that is not the point here. Allowing free re-use of all collected material without any restrictions is the core purpose of this project and since Commons cannot legally grant free re-use of the mentioned photos, they cannot stay here. — Yerpo Eh? 13:34, 1 March 2012 (UTC)
