Poorly drawn (the section involving the chlorine) image of an erroneous structure (sphingomyelin chloride is a salt (i.e. ionic)) Koumz (talk) 02:41, 4 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

 Keep - Added 'Disputed chem' tag to the description page. Your concerns are best addressed and discussed on the file's talk page. Alternatively, you may edit the existing image or upload a new one. Either way, it's not a matter of deletion... it's a matter of correction... and folks patrolling these deletion requests almost certainly can make no judgement about what is correct or incorrect about this image. That's up to you, who do know, to sort out.... – JBarta (talk) 06:37, 4 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Decent point. The compound by this name apparently does exist and might use a correct image to replace this one (although, given that I found exactly one scientific paper on the compound, and that a passing reference from 1967, its use in any Wiki articles any time soon is unlikely). Your disputed tag should serve the purpose I was driving at. This is one of a number of images uploaded by a problem user, but it does not seem to be a copyvio or a blatant hoax like his/her others. Koumz (talk) 15:47, 4 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]


Chemically incorrect (as tagged)--chloride would be loose anion with N+ (not bound to N). Have several correct structures of sphingomyelin in Category:Sphingolipids, would be easy enough to put a Cl next to one as a derivative work if there were a need, but this image is currently only used in a userspace gallery. DMacks (talk) 16:51, 18 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

 Delete Incorrect, really poor quality and better alternatives. --Leyo 18:22, 18 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Note I now see that the image has previously (and recently!) been through DR, but that the del tag was then removed from the file page without an historical DR note left on the image talk-page and with the the actual discussion having been left open for the past several weeks unattended. The previous discussion apparently led to a disputed tag being added to the image, and then no action to fix it, so we're left with an image that is factually incorrect and that nobody seems to care enough about to fix it. Process is confusing here, so at worst consider my re-nom as a  Delete concurrence with the original and hopefully a trigger to get this DR listed and then eventually closed properly. DMacks (talk) 21:03, 18 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

If consensus is that it's incorrect, poor quality, better alternatives exist and no one wishes to correct this image, then sure... delete. (I'll strike my 'Keep' vote above.) – JBarta (talk) 22:26, 18 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Own work? In your dreams! See also Commons:Deletion requests/File:Nude sunbathing.jpg for more by same uploader. 95.199.16.147 22:44, 18 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Delete Scenes like the one on the photo are not that unusual in Germany. Friends of nudidity often meet at beaches etc. and have a pignic without putting on their clothes. You can find a lot of nude people here doing all kinds of sports like riding, cycling, swimming etc. I do not think that there is a reason why that photo should be deleted. Going e. g. to the German island of Rügen scenes like this are everyday-reality and no dream as you thought. Sorry, NO DELITION, please --BBKurt (talk) 04:41, 19 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Delete. BBKurt, this is not about nuditity but about copyright infringement. The uploader has stolen this photos from elsewhere.

 Delete It isn't at all clear that this is a photo of public nudity. --Simonxag (talk) 18:06, 18 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Comment If there is a reason to question the license, what is it? I don't see the relevence of "public"; unless there is some reason to delete beyond that the person visible is nude, I would vote keep. Infrogmation (talk) 20:51, 20 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not questioning the license. As the subject of the photograph is clearly identifiable, I'm querying whether this situation was actually public: see Commons:Photographs of identifiable people. There's very little about the image to give context. --Simonxag (talk) 12:21, 22 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

 Keep How couldn't it be in public while it's within a forest and apparently next to a beach? The other picture seems clear about that. --TwoWings * to talk or not to talk... 11:55, 2 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

 Keep The picture is taken in public and the person is obviously not hiding her nudity. I don't see how it would matter if the peron is underage or not. Otherwise pictures like this this or that would encouter the same problems, which seem ridiculous to me. --Lamilli (talk) 13:07, 2 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

 Keep I believe that pic should stay. It is not violating anything, didn't any one check to see that it wasHomemade? If it is home made then it is not public because the only people there are those two girls and the photographer. If it was just them, then under federal law, they have to be over 18 otherwise the photographer would have been hauled off to prison. And if he was hauled of to prison, then we know for a fact that girl is under age and should be deleted. But, that pic is proof that she is at the correct age and it being on any of the Wikis means it was for the strive for knowledge and the CIA or FBI or any of the other government agencies would have deleted that pic if the photographer was hauled to jail. So therefore, I rest my case that the Naked_Badminton pic should stay. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.158.8.161 (talk • contribs) 20:45, 17 November 2009 (UTC) (transferred from the talk page)[reply]

File:Sir Donald Tsang.jpg

This pic is licensed under a CC that is too restrictive for hosting on commons - the cropping appears not to be hosted on wikipedia - the reviewer user contributionsappears to have been very inexperienced without any investigation as to his qualifications to review any copyrights and there is no evidence at all that the commons compatible license was ever applicable to this picture - I have contacted the photographer who confirms this - Youreallycan (talk) 06:09, 18 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Derivative work. No reason given that the sign text should be public domain or under a creative commons compatible license. 95.166.78.149 07:02, 18 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Probably not licensed with a PD or CC status. But is a sign like this a copyrightable work? --|EPO| da: 08:51, 20 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
If you know a reason it wouldn't be, please say so. The text is long enough to be protected as a literary work, it is not one of the types of official government works that are exempt from protection according to §9 of the Danish copyright act and and §24 part 2 about artworks in public places is no help to us here. 95.166.78.149 13:13, 20 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
To elaborate on the "long enough to be protected as a literary work"-thing, I am thinking in comparison with the 1951 For Whom the Bell Tolls supreme court ruling (U1951.725/3H). It was found that 5 short lines of Ole Restrup's 1941 translation of the famous John Donne poem were above the threshold. That was way better writing, sure, but also a shorter text (about 30 words were quoted and a few of those had been rewritten), and still relatively small things (one example given is translating Bell to Klokkerne (singular to plural)), were enough to raise the translation above the threshold. 95.166.78.149 14:09, 20 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

There is no freedom of panorama for buildings in Iceland. The sculptor of the statue, Alexander Stirling Calder, died in 1932 and the architect of the building, Guðjón Samúelsson, died in 1950. Therefore the image won't be free to use until 2021. See COM:FOP#Iceland and Category:Icelandic FOP cases. JD554 (talk) 08:01, 18 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

And even if was the case, let's recall that underage nudity is not always a source of pedophilia (I'd also say there's some kind of perversion to think so). There are many examples of acceptable children nudity on Commons, especially when it comes to treat subjects like nudism, which is not a question of perversion nor pedophilia, or ethnographic subjects (yeah, let's not forget that nudity is a form of taboo in our occidental societies - and other societies like the arab-muslim world - but is considered differently by other cultures !). In this case, it's clearly an illustration of nudism. Therefore no problem. --TwoWings * to talk or not to talk... 15:20, 31 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

As there is FOP in the US for buildings only, things like toys, scale models, etc do attract copyright, and hence can't be hosted on Commons.

russavia (talk) 02:38, 18 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]


Deleted as derived works of scale models which are possibly protected by copyright. For the latter please be referenced to Osment Models vs. Mike's Train House. Individual models could be in the public domain provided they are faithfully derived from architectural designs in the public domain that have been scaled down. This, however, is rarely the case. Even if the models are derived from real world architecture, it is not uncommon to change its design which causes the model to be copyrightable even if the original buildings are already in the public domain. The same is true for the general setup. Hence it can be pretty safely assumed that the photographed railway model setup is eligible for copyright. All these photographs are in consequence derived works where we do not have freedom of panorama. Hence, they have to be deleted. --AFBorchert (talk) 16:04, 26 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

@Piotrus why don't you try to lobby the Korean legislature to remove non-commercial restriction on Article 35(2) of their law, instead of endlessly ranting on Wikimedia sites? Your claim of copyright paranoia has basis: French government opposes Wikimedia movement, so that only non-commercial freedom of panorama was introduced there in October 2016. Russian Wikimedians seem aware that monuments cannot be freely photographed because there should be respect to sculptors' copyrights, hence they accept that only architectural FOP was introduced in October 2014. It may be lucky if Korea follows the path of Belgium at removing restrictions for public space works, just like what Belgium did in July 2016 with the help of Wikimedia Belgium chapter.

    Except it clearly does. What part of this looks like "simple text" to you? The O with a pentagram in the middle, the H with the hanging upside-down crucifix, or S with the snake's head?

Short and painful: Any art that could be recreated by an average person without special abilities in arts and without special efforts is not worthy of protection.

    Care to explain how an O with a pentagram in it and a spike at the bottom, or an S with the head of a serpent and a spike at the bottom, and the whole thing looking like it was written in blood, constitute "simple geometric shapes"? --IllaZilla (talk) 10:25, 20 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
    You like to comprehend only certain parts of text, don't you? They are "simple" as in "my neighbor's five year old kid could recreate that", not as in "the shape has only 8 vertices". It needs no effort to recreate this logo, so it is not eligible for protection, see above. Furthermore, you've got an incredible imagination; what you interpret as "written in blood" are most likely artifacts from the first vectorization process as the original drawing was done in marker and rather small in size, see, for example, the snake's head. --92.229.217.137 10:46, 20 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
    Sorry, but the threshold of originality is "simple geometric shapes and/or text", not "my neighbor's five year old kid could recreate that". "Originality" ≠ "could not be duplicated". See Commons:Threshold of originality and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Threshold_of_originality. By your standard all of the artistic works of Daniel Johnston would be ineligible for copyright just because they look like little kids' drawings, but clearly that's not the reality. And the look of the lines is most likely not due to vectorization; this is a metal band's logo, when they look like blood or goop it's almost always intentional. --IllaZilla (talk) 18:24, 20 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

  • Regarding Daniel Johnston: German law distincts between "real art" (don't know how to call it) and "Gebrauchsgrafik" ("applied art"). The works of Daniel Johnston, similar to the works of other "simple" artists, are/were therefore copyrighted. A bandlogo is applied art, as it is used as a representation of the band, and doesn't stand for its own. If I look at the images on Commons:Threshold of originality#United States I see several examples which could IMHO be compared to the bandlogo.
    I need a little time reading en:Feist Publications v. Rural Telephone Service and en:Bridgeman Art Library v. Corel Corp. to see if any of these decisions is applyable to our case regarding court interpretations of modicum of originality.

    You're on! :) I'm curious what you think of my point below, that the Commons:Licensing policy only permits PD images that are PD in both the country of origin and the U.S. It's my belief that in the U.S. this image would pass the threshold to not be considered pd-text. --IllaZilla (talk) 17:03, 22 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
    Yes, your point is what COM:L says: "Wikimedia Commons accepts only media that are in the public domain in at least the United States and in the source country of the work." I never challenged this, our only point of conflict is the question whether the logo is eligible for copyright in the US or not. vıכıaяפ 03:45, 29 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
    I disagree with your prior comment that the images at Commons:Threshold of originality#United States are comparable to the band logo: those images contain only simple text or script, or public domain shapes (fleur de lis, yin/yang). To my eye this logo is much more akin to this or this, other band logos which are considered non-free and have a similar level of originality to the Ophis logo. --IllaZilla (talk) 05:20, 29 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • IllaZilla, i partially agree with your arguments, but more i do with viciargs. You should also not forget, that he has the point that beats all - the quote of the OLG Hamburg. If you refer to that, everybody (at least who understands german) will totally agree, that this logo is not worth of protection (according to the law !!!, maybe not to everybodys intention!!!). So therefore KEEP --Trollhead (talk) 08:30, 21 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
    I don't understand German, and running the text through Google Translator didn't help much. Commons:Licensing says that public domain images are only accepted if they are "in the public domain in at least the United States and in the source country of the work." Per this policy, it would not be enough that this image would be considered PD in Germany; it would have to be considered PD in the United States as well (since that's where the Wikimedia Foundation's servers reside). So the pertinent question is: Would this be considered public domain in the U.S.? My opinion is no, that it passes the threshold of originality per the reasons I've given above. --IllaZilla (talk) 07:54, 22 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

This is a similar case to Commons:Deletion requests/License tags of russian websites, in that the website states "This information may be used in part or fully with no obligation to acknowledge the source." It doesn't expressly allow commercial use, which is required for hosting on Commons. Perhaps a Spanish-speaking editor can get an express release from the Ministry, but until then files should be deleted under our precautionary principle.

  •  Comment I have sent a question to the General Division of the Intellectual Property of the Government of Spain. Can we delay this deletion request until we have an offcial answer?. Thank you.--Marctaltor (talk) 10:42, 18 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Marctaltor, I don't think it will be a problem to delay the DR being closed whilst we wait to see if you get a response from the relevant govt dept. If you get any response, be sure send it to OTRS and advise us here of an update. russavia (talk) 16:31, 18 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • I agree with Marctaltor, current licence is a bit ambiguous. Let's wait till we receive an official response. By the way, it would be a great idea asking them if they are willing to license CC-BY-SA to this site, to do the same with other sites that are managed by Ministeries and Agencies of the Spanish Government.--Dura-Ace (talk) 17:07, 18 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
    • CC-BY-SA is much more restrictive than the permission they already gave. /Pieter Kuiper (talk) 17:18, 18 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
      • How can an irrevocable license be more restrictive then a permission that is not clearly free for commercial reuse and not revocable? I.e. it is not clear if we can still allow people to reuse from Commons if in future lamoncloa change their terms and not longer allow reusing, or if they remove content and stop offering that content under said conditions. --Martin H. (talk) 09:06, 19 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Keep - La Moncloa permits free use of the images. Anyway, General Division of the Intellectual Property of the Government of Spain (Ministry of Culture) is not the best place to ask. I know well Spanish Governmet (actually, I do work for it). Better ask (if you consider it necessary---I think is clear enough) to the Secretary of Communication in the Ministry of the Presidency. /Cvbr (User talk:Cvbr) 10:50, 19 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Deleted: No clear evidence of permission. Unless we have written/textual evidence explicitly permitting the use of these files under a Commons-compatiable license, we cannot host these files on Commons. -FASTILYs (TALK) 02:22, 11 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Uploader has requested for deletion at my talk page saying that they're not sure about publication date, I prefered to open a DR so someone might be able to help.  ■ MMXX  talk 22:48, 8 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The creator is unknown, hence wrong license Ymblanter (talk) 11:41, 18 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

"In the following cases images fall into public domain after 30 years from the date of publication or public presentation (Article 16): 1) Photographic or cinematographic works. ..." No doubt the photo has been taken before the Revolution, hence is in PD. Speedy keep --Z 13:23, 18 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
