Clearly a derivative work; not PD, not even fair use. But, uploader not notified of speedy. I've now notified of DR. Elvey (talk) 18:57, 14 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]


  • Delete - Notifying is good, but not not notifying shouldn't mean that an obvious copyright violation shouldn't be speedy deleted. Garion96 (talk) 00:56, 15 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Speedy delete per Garion, even the nominator kwows it is a copyvio. Tbhotch 03:00, 15 September 2013 (UTC)

According to w:Pakistan Army Armoured Corps, the branch of the army which created this was founded in 1947. Per {{PD-Pakistan}}, the copyright term of the badge seems to be 50 years from publication, and we don't know whether this was already created in 1947 or whether it was created later. In either case, it appears to be too recent for URAA. Stefan4 (talk) 20:42, 14 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Unused photo about non-notable people Taivo (talk) 09:27, 14 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Delete I see two possible issues with this image. First, there is the COM:FOP issue as it relates to the Santa statue. Second, there is the COM:IDENT issue, in that requirements for the UAE aren't known. The photo itself would be in scope, particularly as it relates to Christianity and the celebrating of Christmas in Islamic societies. It's a shame that the statue issue basically prevents us from keeping this image. russavia (talk) 09:40, 14 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

 Delete Copyright violation. This is an album coverpaper. (In very unlikely situation, when uploader is copyright holder, bigger file is needed. So small file is not readable.) Taivo (talk) 10:16, 16 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

A comprehensive photo collection of the political life (hand shakes etc.) of ru:Нигматулин, Нурлан Зайруллаевич, a Kazakh Statesman, Chairman of the Mazhilis of the Parliament of the Republic of Kazakhstan, uploaded by Antilong in 2012 & 2013. After identifying some multiple personalities issues (see User talk:Antilong, exif´s with different photographers = "Saylau Maylybayev" and "Ismalov Kuanysh", these files are already tagged with no-permission and are not part of this DR), it is highly unlikely that Antilong ever pulled the trigger to take all these pictures, considering

  1. an arsenal of different digicams (NIKON D3X, Canon EOS 5D Mark II, Canon EOS 1100D, NIKON D90, Noritsu QSS-32_33)
  2. a high number of files with small/inconsistent resolutions, missing EXIF
and
3. some mysterious temporal context and other stuff, which indicates that here are several photographers involved, e.g.:

© 2013 — Central Communications Service for the President of Kazakhstan) = http://ortcom.kz/media/upload/112/2013/06/10/1e066de803006ea0b4fbd04590c4ef76.JPG (last modified: 10.06.2013, 12:13, high res version with exif)

It seems that - by some means - Antilong has access to the parliamentary photo/press service but this does not give him the right to publish these images (as indicated above taken by several photographers/organizations) as "own work". So, unless we have clear, explicit written/textual, tangible evidence (by whomever: inform.kz/parlam.kz/ortcom.kz/etc.) indicating that these files are indeed freely licensed under a Commons compatible license, we cannot host them on Commons.

I suspect there is deception going on with this user regarding authorship. The file they uploaded here contains their username in the metadata as the author, Patrick Rogel nominated it for speedy containing this link. I downloaded the images from the source and Commons to compare the metadata, In the original source, it does not mention their username whatsoever in the metadata.

If this DR is to pass, I highly recommend blocking this user indefinitely for license laundering and deception.

Collage involving non-free images due to the lack of freedom of panorama in Russia. К сожалению, коллаж придётся удалить, так как он содержит несвободные фотографии. Памятники в России охраняются авторским правом до смерти скульптора и ещё 70 лет после неё. Ymblanter (talk) 12:10, 14 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • Все вошедшие в коллаж фотографии сделаны мной. Указать это дополнительно и/или загрузить их сюда также? Nonexyst (talk) 14:52, 14 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
    Проблема в том, что, когда Вы фотографируете несвободный памятник или здание, фотография будет несвободной, и её сюда нельзя загружать.--Ymblanter (talk) 15:34, 14 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
    Понятно, в таком случае, какие фото мне с коллажа убрать, чтобы получить приемлемый файл?
    И ещё, здесь, как я вижу, очень много фото с сооружениями, где с момента смерти скульптора прошло менее 70 лет, например, фото памятника Ленину на Московской площади, интересно, почему их до сих пор не удалили. Nonexyst (talk) 18:01, 14 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
    Боюсь, только две горизонтальные фотографии можно оставить (в принципе, с мостом можно придраться и начать выяснять, кто и когда его строил, но на это, думаю, можно дать ответ, что всё равно никаких деталей не видно). Касательно других фотографий, видимо, просто на глаза никому не попались. --Ymblanter (talk) 18:54, 14 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
    Согласно ВП:Свобода панорамы, загружать на Commons возможно, если "произведение не является основным объектом фотографии; или если фотография используется в пространстве статей, но не является основным объектом какой-либо статьи или страницы" и "не является основным объектом фотографии (например, оно не занимает её бо́льшую часть)". Таким образом, нужно определиться, является ли изображение памятника в Киришах основным объектом статьи про Кириши (я так понимаю, нет), и занимают ли фото бОльшую её часть (в таком случае, я могу в ближайшее время взять вырезки с моих фотографий бОльшего размера и использовать их в коллаже). Nonexyst (talk) 19:42, 14 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
    Попробуйте, но если на фотографии, кроме памятника, ничего нет, будет довольно сложно аргументировать, что она не нарушает свободу панорамы.--Ymblanter (talk) 19:53, 14 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The assertion "This file is in the public domain, because booking photos/records are public records and public records are not copyrighted" is clearly wrong. Many public records have copyrights. Booking photos have copyrights if published after 1989 or before 1989 with notice. The question which needs to be answered is when this 1974 image was first published. If before 1989 without notice, then the license will be PD-no notice. Otherwise it has a copyright. .     Jim . . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 16:21, 14 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I went by this from mugshots.com: "Booking records are considered and legally recognized as public records, in the public domain." I figured they'd know what they were talking about. Looking further now I see conflicting information. If you're aware of anything definitive, I'd love to see it. In the meantime we can change the wording of the license to "because booking records are considered and legally recognized as public records, in the public domain." Or... I think it's safe to assume the mugshot was "published" around 1974 so we could go the PD-no notice route you suggest. I can't imagine a mugshot having a copyright notice. Further, since you've shown an interest and profess relevant knowledge, rather than nominating for deletion mugshots piecemeal, as an admin you might wish to add something to Commons guidelines covering mugshots (COM:CB or COM:PRS). That would certainly be helpful. – JBarta (talk) 17:46, 14 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
First, public records may or may not be PD. While that may seem logical, it simply isn't so in most places. Laws and court decisions are PD almost everywhere in the world. Beyond that, it depends entirely on the jurisdiction. In most countries, including the USA, photographs published by the government have a copyright. There is an exception for photographs actually taken by Federal agencies and those taken by jurisdictions in Florida and California whose laws provide, like Federal law, that the work of all state and local government employees is PD. Note that even this does not extend to photographs taken by third parties -- if the FBI publishes a "Wanted" poster with a photograph from a non-Federal source, the photograph has a copyright and cannot be kept on Commons. Thus there is no reason to believe that a New York booking photograph is automatically PD for any reason.
That leaves us with a 1974 image that may have a copyright. As you say, a copyright notice is very unlikely, so if it was published before 1989, it is almost certainly PD. If you can show that is the case, then it's a keep. However, as you know, on Commons the burden of proof is on those who want to keep an image, so you must provide the manner and date of publication in order to show that it is PD from publication without notice. For first publication after March 1,1989, notice was not required for a copyright. It is entirely possible that the first publication of this image was at mugshots.com.
All of this is just basic copyright law -- no different from the handling of a photograph of the governor of New York published by his office or any other government photograph. .     Jim . . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 11:44, 15 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

It is evident from the original ebay listing that this is a trimmed image, with most of the margins physically removed. Copyright notices were often placed in the margin areas.Since the deleted material cannot be examined, we cannot conclude that the image was published without a copyright notice.

Delete. The evidence points strongly to the conclusion that the material published by the copyright owner has an obvious copyright notice and that the image was clipped from that copyrighted material. When material is published with a copyright notice and subsequently some unidentified person clips out that notice, that does not nullify the copyright. It is not reasonable to speculate that the image could have been separately published by the copyright owner, who then conveniently would have forgotten to put a copyright notice on it, when the evidence shows that the copyright owner placed a notice on the larger material and the image looks exactly like it was clipped from that material. -- Asclepias (talk) 03:59, 23 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

It says that this comes from a publication from London from 1915 and that the photographer is w:Frank Hurley. As the first publication was in the UK, the source country is the UK (despite the photographer being an Australian), and the copyright term to photos expires 70 years after the death of the photographer in the UK. The photographer hasn't been dead for 70 years yet. Stefan4 (talk) 20:16, 14 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Kept:. I can't understand why this picture has no enough grants, while the rest of the Hurley production is on Commons, mainly under license {{PD-Australia}} ?. Probably when I uloaded, I did not select the correct permission, but in my opinion, this one has exactly the same circumstances as the rest, even if I get from a newspapers instead of any other source. What's the problem if I change the license now? Thanks. --amador (talk) 22:51, 14 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
{{PD-Australia}} can only be used for photos which were first published in Australia. It seems that this was first published in the United Kingdom, so UK rules are used instead. --Stefan4 (talk) 23:01, 14 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Who knows where was first ?. Who will claim ? the author ?, the newspaper ? No one when the rest of production of the photographer is free. In my opinion the interest to document the article(s) is more important than precission regarding where was published first. --amador (talk) 05:29, 16 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
See COM:EI#Source. There is currently no evidence that it was published in Australia before it was published in the United Kingdom, and the British publication wasn't a very long time after the photo was taken. The British book was additionally written by someone who travelled on the ship's expedition to Antarctica, and people who were travelling on the ship may have had access to lots of previously unpublished photos. It is therefore not unlikely that the British publication was the first one. If you claim that the country of first publication is Australia, then you will have to show that it was first published in Australia by adding an earlier Australian publication in the source field. --Stefan4 (talk) 13:53, 16 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

http://community.secondlife.com/t5/Second-Life-Education/Copyright-of-LL-textures-avatar-shape-Wikimedia-Commons/td-p/2209827


It appears the SL Machinima policy covers your concerns:

As long as you comply with the terms and conditions below, both Linden Lab and the Residents of Second Life (collectively, “we”) grant you the following copyright licenses:
* A License To Capture. You may take snapshots and capture machinima of the 3D content we created that is displayed in-world, and
* A License To Use. You may use the resulting snapshot or machinima within or outside of Second Life in any current or future media.

(b) Avatar Consent for Machinima
For machinima, you must have the consent of all Residents whose avatars or Second Life names are featured or recognizable in the machinima. This includes avatars who are featured in a shot, avatars whose names are legible, and avatars whose appearance is sufficiently distinctive that they are recognizable by members of the Second Life community. Consent is not required if an avatar is not recognizable and is merely part of a crowd scene or shown in a fleeting background. Consent is not required for any snapshots.


Also, as recommended in the discussion, I have added the Second Life template to the article's Licensing section:
The content of this image is from Second Life. Per press release,[9] Linden Lab declared that all intellectual properties of an object in Second Life belong to the subscriber who created it. The software itself is licensed under the terms of the GNU General Public License.[10]

It doesn't say where it was first published, so the claims of publication without renewal and publication before 1923 can't be verified. The only source is a [dead link]. Stefan4 (talk) 20:37, 14 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep The original source which is now unfortunately a dead link provided provenance for photo which was supposedly used to vett this photo when it was moved to Commons. As stated, the source is now a dead link, but the photo is available on Spokeo.com, absent the provenance. It seems as though we, editors here on Wikipedia, are continually seeking to delete photos that we previously accepted as public domain, but now no longer accept because the original source that we did accept is now a dead link.

 Keep I changed the tag which was wrong, this should have been marked as PD-AR-anonymous because the author is unknown (in Argentina, the time limit is 50 years old, which has been widely surpassed). Moreover, the logo is PD-textlogo. - Fma12 (talk) 22:38, 15 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
How do I verify that the logo is an anonymous work? What research have you done to establish its anonymous status? For example, was there some press release when the logo was first presented? If so, how do I find that press release so that I can check whether the designer is mentioned there or not?
What evidence are you using to establish that this is below the threshold of originality of Argentina? Something like this would be copyrightable in for example the UK, Australia and Austria. Unless verifiable evidence is added to COM:TOO#Argentina, I don't think that we can assume that it is below the threshold of originality of Argentina. --Stefan4 (talk) 23:06, 15 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
The logo is property of Club Atlético Boca Juniors which currently exists, so it can't be "PD-old". This was my mistake and I fixed it. The real point is that the designer is not known so it is supposed to be "anonymous" (unless you can come up with the documents that prove who the author was). Do you need to know what research have I done to affirm that? Well, I read many books about the history of Boca Juniors (as a strong supporter of the club) and none of them told anything about who was the author of the primary logos of the club. Enough?
You have nominated many Argentine text-logos before. Most of them were kept at Commons as "ineligbles" for copyright. You can think whatever you want but, sincerely, I'm tired of discussing on this sort of nominations time after time. As I told in previous discussions you can check the Category:Association football logos of Argentina or Category:Logos of Argentina amongst others, and nominate all the logos contained there if you are convinced that the ToO does not apply there. - Fma12 (talk) 04:43, 16 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Whether Club Atlético Boca Juniors currently exists or not is irrelevant to whether {{PD-old}} is correct. {{PD-old}} means that a natural person died before 1943, but Club Atlético Boca Juniors is a legal person.
The designer of a logo is usually not credited on all documents containing the logo, but may often be credited in a press release published when the logo is announced. Therefore, it is essential to check whether any such press release was made.
I do not know what other deletion discussions you are talking about. I do not see any other {{subst:fdw}} notifications posted by me on your talk page about logos. --Stefan4 (talk) 22:04, 16 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
 Comment The logo is anonymous so it can't be credited to a physical person because there are no evidences to prove who the author was. In the case of the last version of Boca's logo, the designer (a local studio) is not only known but it has published the work on the web (See here).
On the other hand, whether this logo belonged to the club or not, I don't see this complex enough to be copyrightable. That's what really matters here. - Fma12 (talk) 12:40, 17 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

EU copyright directive Article 2.2:

The term of protection of cinematographic or audiovisual works shall expire 70 years after the death of the last of the following persons to survive, whether or not these persons are designated as co-authors: the principal director, the author of the screenplay, the author of the dialogue and the composer of music specifically created for use in the cinematographic or audiovisual work.

w:Cheese Mites, or Lilliputians in a London Restaurant claims that the screenplay was made by w:Walter R. Booth (died in 1938) and that it was produced by w:Robert W. Paul (died in 1943). It would seem that Robert W. Paul is "the principal director" and that Walter R. Booth is "the author of the screenplay" and that this is copyrighted in the United Kingdom until both of them have been dead for at least 70 years. Thus, delete and undelete again next year.

According to the CDPA, the copyright expires 70 years after the death of the people listed in the Copyright Duration Directive.

The producer of these films, w:Robert W. Paul, died in 1943. Based on the above, it would seem that the copyright expires at the earliest 70 years after the producer's death.

Stefan4 (talk) 23:47, 14 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Keep. I take File:Scrooge or Marley's Ghost (1901).ogv as a practical exemple : the film is available on the Internet Archive and is listed on The Public Domain Review as PD worldwide. I have removed the soundtrack from the upload. The applicable law, UK Copyright, Designs and Patents Act does not grant the same protection as the EEC directive and the 70 years pma applies to the "dramatist" and not the producer (cf. section 13 of the CDPA Act, hence Booth who died in 1938. In any case, these films are at least as PD-US, per the arguments developed here. Thanks, — Racconish Tk 13:07, 15 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
    • The "PD worldwide" claim is plain wrong. Check for example the warning in {{PD-old-70}}: "Note that a few countries have copyright terms longer than 70 years: Mexico has 100 years, Colombia has 80 years, and Guatemala and Samoa have 75 years. This image may not be in the public domain in these countries, which moreover do not implement the rule of the shorter term." Neither Booth nor Paul died more than 75 years ago, so the film is clearly copyrighted in Colombia, Guatemala and Samoa. Also, I'm not sure where you find the stuff about the dramatist. The law is very clear:

Copyright expires at the end of the period of 70 years from the end of the calendar year in which the death occurs of the last to die of the following persons—

(a)the principal director,

(b)the author of the screenplay,

(c)the author of the dialogue, or

(d)the composer of music specially created for and used in the film;

subject as follows.

Also, it's not clear if it is enough to remove a soundtrack and thereby ignore the date of death of the author of the dialogue and the composer of music specifically created for and used in the film; the EU copyright duration directive seems to suggest that the entire film is copyrighted until all four of them have died. --Stefan4 (talk) 17:06, 15 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I am afraid there is a misunderstanding about the soundtrack : obviously these are silent film with no soundtrack. Therefore any soundtrack postdates the original film. Please read carefully sections 9 and 10 of Article 13B of the UK CDPA Act : if any of the 4 persons cannot be ascertained, the copyright provision does not apply for such person. The notion I used of "dramatist" comes from this study of the European Audiovisual Observatory, p. 16, which also clarifies the differences between the revised CDPA and the European directive.

I am reading the document differently. This is my interpretation:
  1. The copyright to a cinematograhic work expires in the UK 70 years after the death of the longest living of the people listed in the Copyright Duration Directive.
  2. Some cinematographic works may additionally be dramatic works. If a cinematographic work also is a dramatic work, then you need to wait until the dramatist has been dead for at least 70 years in addition to the term above. 70 years after the dramatist has died, you could maybe set up the film as a play at a theatre without needing any permission.
  3. If there is no dramatist and the people mentioned in the Copyright Duration Directive don't exist, or if the film is below the threshold of originality, then the copyright expires 50 years after the first fixation of the film.
However, this seems to be a very messy area. There is not a big issue with these films as any interpretation seems to suggest that the copyright at least will be expired in three and a half month if not earlier, but it could be a big issue with other films. --Stefan4 (talk) 21:32, 15 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I take it we now agree reference should be made to UK's applicable law, hence to the CDPA Act which is not the same as the EEC Copyright Duration Directive (I gave the reference of the IRIS study to shed light on this point) and does not make reference to the producer of the film. The matter is not so difficult as you seem to see it. We have at least clarified that Paul's death, which was your initial concern, is not to be taken into account, per the terms of the CDPA Act which are not the exact same as the EEC Directive : Booth is the only known individual to be identified as the director of these films, except The Unfortunate Policeman for which the director is unknown. No screeplaywriter is credited for these films and no composer nor author of dialogue should be searched as there were no music nor intertitles in these early silent films. See [11], [12], [13], [14], [15], [16], [17], [18] and [19]. Booth died in 1938, more than 70 years ago. Therefore these are PD in the UK. You can easily check the matter with Europeana's PD calculator. And they are also PD in the USA as they were published before 1923. Again, I stress that the Open Knowledge Foundation has selected one of these films, Scrooge or Marley's Ghost as an exemple of a PD film from the 1900s.

Wouldn't the producer be "the author of the screenplay"? Or is the director both "the principal director" and "the author of the screenplay" in these cases?
The PDF document you linked suggests that the producer owns a related right for 50 years from creation, but that right has obviously expired a long time ago.
File:The Unfortunate Policeman (1905).ogv states "Silent film of 1905 directed by Walter R. Booth and produced by Robert W. Paul". If that is wrong, please correct it.
As I wrote above, the "PD Worldwide" claim at http://publicdomainreview.org/2012/12/10/scrooge-or-marleys-ghost-1901/ is wrong as the film is at least copyrighted in Colombia, Guatemala, Samoa and Spain. Therefore, I would pay no attention to the statement. --Stefan4 (talk) 14:38, 16 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Stefan, there is no reason in the world to believe the producer was the screenplay writer. Charles Pathé or Louis Gaumont, for example, produced hundreds if not thousands of films but were never directly involved in the creative process. We cannot ascertain who is the author of the screenplay for these films, although it is highly probable it was Booth himself, therefore the related protection for the screenplay writer does not apply, which means, as far the screenplay is concerned, 70 years after publication. In that respect the applicable UK law and the EEC directive it interprets are perfectly congruent : there is no basis for assuming a creative responsability of the producer if he is not a "co-author". I have corrected the information for The Unfortunate Policeman. Now concerning Colombia, Guatemala and Samoa, I understand your point about the lack of application of the Bern convention, although bilateral treatises with the UK might exist. Doesn't {{PD-old-70-1923}}, currently applied to all these files, have the same caveat you mentioned about {{PD-old-70}} ? In practical terms, do you suggest a change to the current license ?
