По личному запросу изображённого человека в Русской Википедии. Torin (talk) 06:13, 18 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

We generally don't delete content that is within our project scope. In particular, we don't delete legally hosted files that are still in use, which this one is. (Torin's removal of the image from the article was reverted.) The Russian Wikipedia project (like all other Wikipedia projects that I'm aware of) does not allow the subjects of articles to dictate their contents, as that would compromise the integrity of the encyclopædia. That includes the choice of illustrations. It seems that attempted influencing by persons with a conflict of interest is an ongoing issue with this article. It would be unfortunate if that situation were to spill over further to other projects or if Commons' procedures were unduly used to dictate which illustrations the Russian Wikipedia project chooses to use. LX (talk, contribs) 17:43, 18 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I had a conversation with her on Skype to video mode. She tried to put herself on the screen, but did not work. So I decided to help her. You can send her a request to elenalenina@gmail.com.--Torin (talk) 04:31, 19 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I don't really get why I should contact OTRS to get deletion of one of my image. I'd like to comment it a bit:
  • either the person contact OTRS and submit a valid reason there to have the image deleted, the demand being proxyed to common admins. For serious cases, the foundation can also take action and delete via back office action.
  • either the person can contact the photographer directly, in this case me, but I won't delete it myself, it's way better to handle it a proper DR.
The good question is 'why do we delete such an image'? The answer I'll support is 'to not alienate the person being photographied': known persons on book fairs can choose either to pose or not pose for us, we don't necessarily have the time or the coordination to get a 'formal' agreement before publishing each photograph, according to the (french) law, we don't need it, but it's better to use a picture the model actually like than to use one for which he/she will complain. Appreciation of a photograph is subjective, but if there is some dialog, we can in most cases get a replacement photograph, it being taken by a wikimedia photographer (linked with chapters) or not (meaning OTRS will be essential to certify that the photograph is under a free licence).
Here, I was never contacted by the person being photographied, so I stay neutral, according to the french law, I have a right to retract publication of such photograph(called 'droit de retrait' or 'droit de repentir', according to L.121-4 article of french intelectual property code (CLPI in french)), but I won't use it until I confirm that the person photographied is really asking for the deletion of the photograph. It is also debated if such right can be applied here on Commons, some people fears that someone will change his mind and retract all photograph he has taken, I do believe this can be used on case per case, to handle request similar to this one.
Esby (talk) 09:30, 20 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
See - it's content you would like to delete by request of the lady photographed, not you. It is already available on a ton of other websites who made use of the license you published it with. Deleting it here would make a re-upload quite possible and wouldn't remove the image from the Internet (which is what the lady wants) and you shouldn't worry about it. --Gryllida (talk) 00:35, 25 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Keep, No violations of policies. --ssr (talk) 13:46, 24 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Question for Esby. Can you please confirm if Elena Lenina was at this book fair as a participant? i.e. was she there promoting one of her works? As per Commons:Country_specific_consent_requirements#France, if she was at this book fair promoting her works, etc, then this will come under the exemption (public figures performing their public functions or activities (not in private life). If she was there in a private capacity as an attendee (private life), then she does have the right to privacy under French law. I am guessing from her posing for the photograph, that she was there as part of her "public" life. Please advise, as this will have some bearing on how I will close this request. russavia (talk) 18:49, 24 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
You can read the background for the thing 'here (in Russian). Please use a translator if you don't read the language. It is crucial to understanding the conflict of interests that may be taking place: basically the lady is rich and got married and tries to influence the press to fake her age and remove some photos. Having them gone from Commons won't quite get them nuked from the rest of the Internet (it would be possible to grab any of the tons of websites that mirrored it and noted the license as well and re-upload of course -- we have no policies which would prevent such re-uploads) and I see no merit in following the query. --Gryllida (talk) 00:38, 25 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I am aware of the issues surrounding this individual, and I would be in no way swayed by shenanigans. We need to wait to hear back from Esby. If Elena was at this book fair as an official participant, then we are under no obligation to remove this photo from our project, and I will not do it. If she was only there as a visitor, then we need to find out from Esby whether he had permission to photograph her (which is obvious from her quite clearly posing for the photo), and whether he had permission to publish the photo. Let's wait to hear back from Esby on this issue. russavia (talk) 00:57, 25 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Great - I'm not holding you from all that; would just want to make sure you are aware. Thanks for the details. --Gryllida (talk) 01:27, 25 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
To answer the question, (Sorry, I was busy in Toulouse this weekend, partly for french wikimedia chapter activities), I'd assume she was present as a guest or promoting her book, as she was under a tent promoting her book, so technically, this image is perfectly fine according to the french law.
Esby (talk) 14:19, 25 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Kept: After discussion with Esby it is clear that Elena was at the book fair in a promotional capacity relating to her profession -- he took a photo of her book which was on the table at which she was sitting in order to get her name for the photograph. So this is clearly exempted under COM:IDENT French provisions, and as the photo is in use, and has clear scope, the image will not be deleted. russavia (talk) 14:25, 25 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I see no encyclopedic usefulness in this image. It also infringes personal rights. We can have this image back if this girls turns into someone notable with an article on Wikipedias. §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {T/C} 06:53, 18 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • I do not understand the claim in the deletion nomination that personal rights have been infringed. The location is a top tourist site in India and a public place. Where photographs are taken in a public place, then there are no special personal rights that need concern Commons, unless there are direct issues of intrusive candid-camera nature photography, which is not the case here where one can see the model is happily consenting to being photographed. Indian law on freedom of panorama follows UK law, and so there are no concerns in that regard either. Commons is not limited to portrait photographs of notable people, and photographs which have educational value, such as showing dress and cultural variation, or are likely to be of use with general illustration are validly within scope. -- (talk) 07:33, 18 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

You have admitted to taking someone else's imprint and affixing it to your own product in a manner which suggests that they are the author or publisher. This is known variously as "forgery", "counterfeiting", or "passing off", and is civilly and/or criminally actionable in all relevant jurisdictions. If you don't see how this is wrong, consider how you would feel if someone obtained a scan of your signature (which, like the Russian Post logo, is also in the public domain), used it to sign various documents that you didn't create, and uploaded them here. —Psychonaut (talk) 15:49, 20 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • This image is composed of nine separate photographs (plus two illustrations, though they're probably non-infringing). The image quality is high enough that it's plausible the uploader produced the collage himself (that is, it looks photoshopped rather than scanned from a hard copy). When I saw the uploader's long record of copyright violations I assumed that this was just another scan or photograph of non-free third-party content, but perhaps I was overly hasty in nominating it on those grounds. It would help if the uploader could point to the original images making up the collage so that we can confirm he's the photographer. That said, I'm skeptical that the image would be in-scope here—we're not a repository of user-generated postcard templates. Does this postcard have any educational use or historical significance? —Psychonaut (talk) 21:56, 18 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

For that use they must be in a vertical format. Those that contain text or artwork generated by the creator are much less useful -- it is usually hard to see where they would be used on or off WMF.

The flag bears the Singapore Armed Forces crest, which is non-free as it was only introduced in 1960: see "List of coats of arms used in Singapore").

I say  Keep, Singaporean copyright law should be reassessed regarding it's applicability on COmmons because it's...strange. We made this, I don't think mere resemblance is enough for a violation. Fry1989 eh? 19:29, 18 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I have to agree with Jacklee; the item must be public domain in the US and the source country, and in this case, is Singapore. The current flag was from 1990, but this was the first time I was told when the lion symbol was created (so the year I was born, cool, easy to keep track of). It is a derivative work and we just cannot keep it. If I can also ask Jacklee to see if what items under Singapore legislation are not protected by copyright, since he is there.  Delete User:Zscout370 (Return fire) 20:41, 18 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Fry1989 – yes, it would be better if government works in Singapore were in the public domain. But Singapore is not the only country that has laws providing that the Government holds the copyright in its works. Until the law is changed, according to Commons policy we can't simply ignore it. I'm not following your "mere resemblance" argument. The lion head symbol used in the flag doesn't "merely resemble" the actual symbol, it is identical to it, making it a non-free derivative work. — Cheers, JackLee talk 06:19, 19 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
The question I have is this, Jacklee, is legislation in Singapore not copyrightable? I have not found any exemption from copyright at all in Singapore. User:Zscout370 (Return fire) 08:32, 19 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
There isn't any special exemption for legislation from the normal copyright law rules, so the conclusion must be that the rules relating to Government copyright applies to legislation as well. — Cheers, JackLee talk 09:39, 19 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The username of the present uploader is Nipuni711, which matches the name of the photographer of the deleted image (Nipuni Wickramanayake). -- King of ♥ 06:32, 16 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

    @Adamant1: Just to clarify, this file has not received VRT permission before. Rather, the deleted history contains a different photo of the same subject with a watermark that says "Nipuni Wickramanayake | PHOTOGRAPHY", and that photo has received VRT confirmation. Based on this information, I can conclude that Nipuni711 is in fact Nipuni Wickramanayake. -- King of ♥ 16:01, 10 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Files that are texts but probably copyrighted

[edit]

Although simple text, (title card and certificates from the film board), these texts are part of the film which is not yet in public domain and hence it's copyrights are with producers/directors/others. As to the ticket, although simple text, it is just similar to any newspaper article or leaflet or advertisement with simple texts that are considered to be copyrighted.

§§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {T/C} 04:37, 18 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

"Admin said" is not really a reason to keep. First 4 of 5 are screenshots of a films. Would we upload such screenshots of maybe showing a simple text in form of a book or Dhoom 2's signature A? For ticket, its same as any newspaper article. §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {T/C} 08:53, 18 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
That is reason to "endorse" the "keep" vote, as it was asked at the Help Desk to clarify the same confusion! --Tito Dutta (Send me a message) 11:55, 18 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

At least 2 images are {{PD-text}}. Awaiting opinions about the others. Yann (talk) 15:51, 28 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]


 Keep I think the title card is also {{PD-text}}. I think the two censor's certificates are covered by the second bullet here
"Although Government works are copyrighted, the reproduction or publication of following works not copy protected:
  • Act of a Legislature.
  • Report of a committee, commission, council, board or other like body appointed by the Government.
  • Judgement or order of a court, tribunal or other judicial authority."
I'm assuming that the censor is actually appointed by the Government and is not an industry function, as it is in the USA.
I have the most trouble with the ticket -- while most of it is just facts -- time, place, name film, etc., arguably the fine print is long enough to have a copyright. I think, though, that it would be very hard to conclude that it actually has a copyright because it is so similar to thousands of such texts the world around.
.     Jim . . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 13:57, 2 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
 Keep the ticket (which lacks sufficient originality) and the censors' certificates (as per Jameslwoodward). I'm not sure about the title card, which might (barely) meet the threshold of originality; it's got some sort of background image which might be a creative work, or at least creatively selected for the card. —Psychonaut (talk) 22:10, 3 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Derivative of the lego figurine, which does not qualify as a utilitarian item. -mattbuck (Talk) 10:52, 18 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

LEGO derivative? I don't think so. George Lucas? Maybe, but I would say there is more art/creativity in perspective and setup in the pictures then it is in the blocks themselves. And it is used on pl:Wikiprojekt:Mykologia :-). And if that is not in the scope of Commons how is most of this Category:Girls in anime and manga :->. --Nux (talk··dyskusja) 15:54, 18 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not arguing this should be deleted on scope grounds, I'm arguing that it's a copyright violation, and if it is then whether it is within scope matters not a jot. That there is more creativity in the background is similarly irrelevant as the figurine fails de minimis (it is a central part of the image, without which the rest of the picture is pointless). -mattbuck (Talk) 18:24, 18 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep Per Scoobycentric. The Hadrawi image was indeed cleared at the time the collage was updated by myself. If there's a problem with this one image, that is no reason to attempt to delete the collage wholesale when another could easily replace it. Middayexpress (talk) 18:19, 17 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

      • I did not "provide invalid links". As clearly indicated above, these images were very much cleared when I transfered them to Wiki from their original upload place on English Wiki. But if you want to be picky about things, then I think it's my turn to point out to you that per Wiki policy, you should have at least contacted me on my talk page & alerted me of this deletion request instead of trying to discreetly get rid of these images. My post above still stands. And I assure you that should this image get deleted, there's another collage just like it with a perfectly legitimate image ready to take the Hadrawi image's place. The latter only serves to further underline the utter pointlessness of this deletion request. Middayexpress (talk) 18:03, 18 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Kept. The copyrighted part is not showing any longer.
Comment: this is a good faith derived work by a Commons user. Therefore, if a picture of this collage later appears to be copyrighted, then fix the collage or ask the creators to fix it. Just deleting this image would be harsh and disrespectful of the work of Middayexpress and Scoobycentric. — Xavier, 00:29, 12 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

It should be obvious that the uploader is not the copyright holder of this image. It is Crown copyright, not the uploader's. There's a similar image at en.wiki that I have tagged for fair use in one article. Diannaa (talk) 03:57, 18 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

It should be obvious that this is PD because A: the shield of Ontario dates back to 1868, and even if it didn't, this version was freely drawn. B: the other elements (10 maple leaves and crown) are both free-drawn elements that exist on Commons. This image was was taken by myself from File:Flag of the Lieutenant-Governor of Ontario.svg which sources itself from two PD files already here on Commons before it, the flags of both Ontario and Canada. The crown exists here on as File:Crown of Saint Edward.svg as is used on dozens of other files. This is a  Keep. The version on English Wikipedia is non-free because it was taken from the Lieutenant Governor's website. They're two very different things. Fry1989 eh? 04:14, 18 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
You have created a derivative work. Doing so does not negate or cancel the rights of the original copyright holder. Commons:Derivative works -- Diannaa (talk) 05:06, 18 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
WHAT COPYRIGHT???. I already told you I took this image from File:Flag of the Lieutenant-Governor of Ontario.svg. The original creator of that image is Greentubing. He released it under a free license with no restrictions, so he has given up any copyright he might have held. And actually his image is a derivative work ITSELF, as I already pointed out but will again since you didn't get it the first time. He took the shield from our SVG flag of Ontario, he took the maple leaves from our SVG flag of Canada, and the crown is File:Crown of Saint Edward.svg. All of those elements are elso free. There IS NO copyright. Just because this resembles the image from the LG's website, does not make it crown copyrighted. Also when I uploaded this image, I used DerivativeFX, which automatically attributes the original creator of what ever image I am using to create a new one, which you would know if you just read the infobox of this file. Fry1989 eh? 15:54, 18 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Greentubing does not own the copyright on the flag of the Province of Ontario, and he is thus in no position to release it to the public domain. The question is whether or not flags and symbols of Canada are under copyright, and whether or not the images from which you have created derivative works are under copyright.

There is some information at w:en:Wikipedia:Copyright on emblems#Copyright on emblem definitions which says in part "Emblems of sub-national entities (states of a union, cantons, districts, counties, townships, etc.) may or may not be defined in an official law, code, or regulation. If they are, they are considered to be in the public domain as statutes, laws, and similar official publications are in general not copyrighted. The U.S. Copyright Office applies this even to edicts of sub-national governments or foreign governments.[19] Emblems of official bodies or sub-national entities not defined in such official publications may be copyrighted." So that's the question that needs to be answered. -- Diannaa (talk) 20:08, 18 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

If you don't want to listen I'm not going to explain it to you again, but don't be surprised when this is kept. There is nothing copyrightable here, every element is pre-existing free Commons content. Fry1989 eh? 21:35, 18 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I'd like to thank all of those who were so persistent in deleting these photographs against consensus. It gave me a reason to contact Thomas Marsh, and evidence of a clear case of ongoing censorship even on Wikipedia. He has sent me a completed OTRS request, which I have duly submitted, which grants everybody a license to photograph the artwork in its various versions as the "Victim of Communism Memorial" in DC and the "Goddess of Democracy" in San Francisco, Vancouver, Calgary, and in the Newseum in DC. The license is "Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0" (unported) and GNU Free Documentation License (unversioned, with no invariant sections, front-cover texts, or back-cover texts), which covers the right to photograph the artwork.

See File:Goddess of Democracy DC defy censorship.JPG

I do hope that nobody will try to beat a dead horse on this.

I also hope that the deleted files will be restored immediately.

Thank you all for your help.

The Academy Award statue is still in copyright. If I make a duplicate and take a picture of it that would violate the copyright of the original in the source country. Images hosted at commons need to be free in source country and the USA. China may deny that the original sculptor has any rights under their law but we should not deny them here. A copyright cannot and should not be taken by any government. It is an inalienable human right for creators worldwide.--Canoe1967 (talk) 01:36, 24 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • Hypothetical: A statue is created by an anonymous sculptor in the USA. The statue is destroyed and a clone is made. Can we host images of the clone? Even if it isn't destroyed I still don't think we can. If this were the case we could make 3D computer renderings of copyrighted 3D works and use images of those to circumvent the lack of FOP in the USA. We would just need the permission of the renderer for images and not the original sculptor.--Canoe1967 (talk) 01:52, 24 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I agree. The USA does not have FOP though. We would need permission from the original sculptor to host any pictures of it that are taken in a country without FOP. We can't host images with the permission of the sculptor of the clones. My yellow sub was created in the UK which has FOP. It was created and rendered by me on my computer in Canada that has FOP. Can we host my yellow sub image here with my permission as creator then?--Canoe1967 (talk) 02:13, 24 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Talk about beating a dead horse!

It has been decided by consensus several times that there is no practical right of copyright on this statue in China. Rather than recognize the sculptors' right to display, copy, license, sell, etc, the work, the government destroyed the sculpture, censored pictures of it, likely killed or jailed several of its creators. In short they severely censored the sculpture and effectively denied any rights under the their copyright laws to the sculptors. This for a statue that celebrates freedom! Now if we were to say that any statue that has been censored in its home country, cannot be uploaded to Commons because we cannot get the (nonexistent right) license from the creators, we would in effect be saying that any country can censor Commons for works made on its territory. The consensus does not recognize China's right to censor this statue or believe that we have to enforce that censorship here. Please use some common sense.

Now it was argued that the US sculpture was not a simple replica, but a new work, so that permission had to obtained from the US sculptor. That permission has been received. There are no more hoops to jump through. Smallbones (talk) 03:58, 24 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]


Files restored. This may be a controversial closure but I believe we are now fully justified in keeping these hosting these images. There are two potential copyrights involved: that of the original Chinese sculptor and that of the creator of the US version. The latter has been dealt with by the licence now noted at OTRS, and to that extent it no longer therefore matters whether the US version is a straight replica of the original or a new copyright work in its own right. The Chinese copyright issue is more complex. The arguments of Canoe1967, above, are perfectly correct, and under normal circumstances we we not be able to host because we would be infringing the local copyright of the original Chinese sculptor. However, in this case, it is clear that the original copyright has been renunciated by the Chinese state, and regardless of China's obligations under international copyright law the local position is that no effective copyright now exits for the original statue in China. Thus, the images are properly licensed under the US copyright and do not infringe any local Chinese copyright, and they can therefore be hosted here under our rules.

It has been suggested that copyright is an inalienable human right for creators worldwide, and that we should not accept that it can be taken away by any government. The fact is that that is done all the time by national governments, who are perfectly free to determine the scope of local copyright rules as they so wish (even when, as here, they fail to comply with international copyright conventions). And, most often, Commons wants governments to restrict the extent of local copyright protections, so that images are freed from excessive copyright claims and are made available for reuse. If we were to consider copyright as an inalienable human right we would have to delete all images that national governments have decreed to be free under local copyright laws contrary to what we (arbitrarily) consider the scope of that putative 'inalienable right' to be. That would make for a very interesting discussion, but would mean a radical change to our rules and is a clearly matter for another day. --MichaelMaggs (talk) 08:59, 24 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Non ce n'est pas un duplicata puisque le logo est une différence entre les versions.--Principal adjoint (talk) 21:03, 22 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
