This file was initially tagged by Herbythyme as Copyvio (copyvio) and the most recent rationale was: Copyright at source. "Photo sous licence CC-BY 4.0" means it's licensed that way, right? —Mdaniels5757 (talk • contribs) 18:09, 6 April 2023 (UTC)
- Absolutely. Upon the death of Pr. Scelles, I contacted Eres Editions, their publisher, asking them to set the picture to CC-BY in order to put it on Wiki project, which they accepted. "Photo sous licence CC-BY 4.0" means that it's licensed under CC-BY 4.0. CelianGdfrd (talk) 20:22, 6 April 2023 (UTC)
- La question reste : les éditions Erès possèdent-elles les droits photographiques ? --Pierrette13 (talk) 05:51, 7 April 2023 (UTC)
- Ah - looking around I see "Les photos de nos auteurs figurant sur notre site sont libres de droit." which may mean freely licensed? (https://www.editions-eres.com/mentions-legales). If that is the case my apologies for this and the DR can be closed. Herby talk thyme 06:35, 7 April 2023 (UTC)
- I wasn't aware of this mention. "Libre de droit" is kind of a misuse of language in French, to say "Free from any rights", which is legally impossible. But it certainly means that they intend to allow the reuse of the pictures of their authors. I maintain that the picture of Pr. Scelles on her author page specifically mentions CC-BY 4.0 license. CelianGdfrd (talk) 09:53, 7 April 2023 (UTC)
- Oui @Pierrette13, l'entourage de la Pr. Scelles m'a confirmé que cette photo a été prise par les éditions Erès pour illustrer leur site. J'ai fait mes recherches antérieurement à la publication de l'article Wikipédia et n'en ai trouvé aucune occurrence préalable à celle du site des éditions Erès. CelianGdfrd (talk) 09:55, 7 April 2023 (UTC)

While {{PD-USGov}} applies to works of the federal government of the United States of America, it does not apply to the governments of the constituent sovereign states (see COM:USA#Works by the US Government, which notes that while a work created by the federal Government is in the public domain, works created by most state and local governments are subject to copyright). This photograph wasen by the Alexandria Sheriff's Office; the employees of that office are employees of the U.S. Commonwealth of Virginia, not the U.S. Federal Government. As such, the {{PD-USGov}} tag does not appear to apply to this photograph. As this photograph was created in the 2000s, the photog is not presumed to be in the public domain on account of age. For these reasons, the photo does not appear to be in the public domain, and the photo should be deleted in light of COM:PRP for also lacking evidence of a valid free license. — Red-tailed hawk (nest) 04:11, 6 April 2023 (UTC)

Circa 1960s photograph. The source lists this being from Vanguard News, which is a Nigerian newspaper that was established in the 1980s, which was after the death of the subject. The uploader does not know the copyright status of this photograph given their inquiry at the talk page of the file. Mali is 70 p.m.a. so if Mali is the country of origin, it's too young to be public domain. If Nigeria is the country of origin, it has publication plus 50 years for photographs. But we'd have to know when it was first published and if it was first published in 1973 or afterwards in Nigeria, it's still in copyright in Nigeria. Abzeronow (talk) 17:18, 6 April 2023 (UTC)

Some coins such as this one are not listed so they are composed of simple elements, below the TOO.

Applied to Facebook as "Ritchie posing for 2023 Photo-op", but no source is given. EXIF shows a Facebook source.

While {{PD-USGov}} applies to works of the federal government of the United States of America, it does not apply to the governments of the constituent sovereign states (see COM:USA#Works by the US Government, which notes that while a work created by the federal Government is in the public domain, works created by most state and local governments are subject to copyright). These photographs were taken by the Alexandria Sheriff's Office; the employees of that office are employees of the U.S. Commonwealth of Virginia, not the U.S. Federal Government. As such, the {{PD-USGov}} tag does not appear to apply to these photographs. As each photograph was created in the 2000s, the photographs are not presumed to be in the public domain on account of age. For these reasons, the photos do not appear to be in the public domain, and the photos should be deleted in light of COM:PRP for also lacking evidence of a valid free license.

Unless these photographs were taken by federal employees acting in their course of duty (they do not appear to be, as all credits are attributed to the Sherrif's Office of Alexandria), then we can't host them under a claim of {{PD-USGov}}. — Red-tailed hawk (nest) 03:33, 7 April 2023 (UTC)

- My concerns remain. We know that the artist is Gary Brown who I believe is still alive. He could be the one and the same as the Uploader but this needs confirmation by VRTS. Furthermore the work is a Derivative Work with the the original photographer being Felix Greene who died in 1985. Without evidence to the contrary, we have to assume that copyright still rests with the estate of Felix Greene. --Headlock0225 (talk) 15:31, 6 April 2023 (UTC)

Per en:Template talk:PD-USGov-DOE, Sandia National Laboratories is claiming her own copyright and PD license cannot be applied A1Cafel (talk) 07:47, 6 April 2023 (UTC)
- Delete - The source document is from Sandia Labs which states it is "managed and operated by Sandia Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of Lockheed Martin Corporation, for the U.S. Department of Energy’s National Nuclear Security Administration under contract DE-AC04-94AL85000." Work under contract to the US government does not automatically become PD. I checked into the image in the document on the chance that the image itself is the work of a US government employee. The reference in document credited this document. That turns out to be the work of an employee of Southern California Edison, and not a federal government employee. -- Whpq (talk) 23:22, 7 April 2023 (UTC)

This is media taken from CCTV equipment in the US? Does the US have a specfic exemption in copyright law, or is there specfic caselaw, supporting the reasoning that simple or trival media from such equipment is not suject to copyrights (mots likely held by the operators or woners of the CCTV equipment concerned? ShakespeareFan00 (talk) 12:08, 6 April 2023 (UTC)
- Delete as lacking essential information to show PD release. I am aware of no blanket exemption to copyright for CCTV footage. Bearing in mind that CCTV represents an edge case, Commons adopts a pretty strong precautionary principle; we want to ensure that media files are definitely free media, not just that a colorable argument might be made. 69.174.144.79 14:00, 10 April 2023 (UTC)

مشکل حق تکثیر در پرونده:پارک راه آهن.jpg
[edit]از اینکه پرونده:پارک راه آهن.jpg را بارگذاری کردید سپاسگزاریم. با این وجود، وضعیت حق نشر و مجوز این پرونده مشخص نیست. حق نشر در ویکیپدیا مسئلهای بسیار جدی است. پرونده ممکن است به زودی حذف شود، مگر اینکه بتوانیم تأیید کنیم این پرونده دارای وضعیت حق تکثیر مورد قبول ویکیپدیا و دارای منبعی مشخص است. لطفاً با ویرایش صفحهٔ توضیحات تصویر این اطلاعات را به آن بیفزایید. برای دانستن اینکه چه پروندههایی را میتوانید یا نمیتوانید در ویکیپدیا بارگذاری کنید به سیاست استفاده از تصاویر مراجعه کنید. صفحهٔ برچسبهای حق تکثیر ممکن است به شما کمک کند برچسب مناسب را برای تصویر خود بیابید. اگر پرونده حذف شده است، همچنان میتوانید در ویکیپدیا:درخواست احیا درخواست احیای تصویر را بدهید و فرصتی برای رفع مشکل پیدا کنید.
خواهشمندیم پروندههای دیگری که بارگذاری کردهاید را نیز از نظر برچسب بررسی کنید. فهرستی از پروندههای بارگذاریشده به دست شما.

- ایستگاه راه آهن مشهد در 1345 و المان مجاور آن (با طراحی یعقوب دانش دوست)، حدود سال 1350 و در دوره پهلوی دوم ساخته شده اند.

- I don't think {{PD-NorwayGov}} works in this case because the law specifically says it covers things "which are made by a public authority" and the image wasn't made by the Norwegian police.

- This dokument are made by a public authority and published by the public authority. I belive your consern for a unknown copyrighet holder is somewhat spoilt energy. The european GDPR kicks in and the restaurant does not have the oportunity to publish from their surveillance cameras. this links to 4 descisions with fines between 35000-400000NOK (3500-40000US dollar) for attemts to use the material out of order. But they are obliged to give the material to the police acording to this. When the police go trough material and find something interesting; it becomes a document in an ongoing investigation. This dokument is what the police have chosen to publish as a part of an ongoing investigation. Here {{PD-NorwayGov}} kicks in. --Andrez1 (talk) 19:32, 29 July 2022 (UTC)

Re-nominating. I am aware of previous arguments, but the logic that CCTV footage is public domain through being simple does not apply universally, as indicated in some recent DR's on that issue. This media originates outside the US, and thus it would be the copyright situation in it's origin country that would need to be applied. Does Norway have a specfic exemption of copyright for simple images taken by mechanical means without creative input in the choice of images? The use of the images in an official capacity or govt released media is a side issue. ShakespeareFan00 (talk) 12:03, 6 April 2023 (UTC)
- Delete per COM:PRP; the idea that there is a blanket exemption from copyright law for CCTV footage does not seem to be clearly established. We need something more than an arguable basis before declaring something to be outside of copyright for all uses. 69.174.144.79 14:02, 10 April 2023 (UTC)
- Comment I also want to note the claim in the previous discussion that the file was published by a public authority (and cannot lawfully be published by the restaurant) does not mean that the rights to the image are owned by the public authority. 69.174.144.79 14:03, 10 April 2023 (UTC)
- Laws about copyright differ from country to country; we have established that the image's origin country is Norway, and that CCTV footage does not have any legal copyright owners per Norwegian law. I completely agree with the COM:PRP policy, however, I do not see it being pertinent in this particular case. Please elaborate. 12u (talk) 21:21, 15 May 2023 (UTC)

- Keep As previously stated, it is illegal in Norway for restaurant owners to store CCTV footage for longer than 7 days. The image therefore has no copyright protection in Norway (the origin country) as it does not have any actual owner. The image was publicized by the Norwegian Police Service, and there are no specfic exemption of copyright for simple images taken by mechanical means without creative input in the choice of images in Norway. We should apply the copyright laws for the origin country, in other words keep the image.
- The fact that it would be unlawful for the restaurant owner to retain the footage doesn't render it PD. You have no pronouncement of Norwegian law that expressly makes this image PD. The police usage of it is a form of fair use. COM:PRP means we delete this image. 69.174.144.79 14:45, 21 April 2023 (UTC)
Keep I closed this previously, so I will not close it again. I note that as in most countries, the term of a copyright is measured by the life of the author. An automatic camera does not have a life, so that if there were a copyright here, how long would it last? Also, the Norwegian copyright law says, at Section 2, "The person who creates an intellectual work has copyright to the work, and is referred to as the originator."[Google translation] Since an automatic camera is not a person, it cannot benefit from this. .

- Keep This file was filed under PD-NorwayGov until this edit changed that. It should be set back to PD-NorwayGov. This is a document (in a still ongoing) criminal case against Matapour where the police as a public autority has published his image as a part of the investigation. (The owner of the cctv-thing are not in posistion to publish, and would have been heavily fined if they did.) This is in the core of what PD-NorwayGov is protecting.

- So.. no consensus. The edit are not defended. The - "So if you can not show that a copyright exists, please leave the tag." - lays the burden of proof on the other part.
- I, for one, can not prove that a copyright exist. But is convinced that this material is in the Public Domain, and that the material falls within the scope of PD-NorwayGov. And by that is a "work of art without copyright protection".
- Reverting the materials license from "PD-ineligible|Surveillance camera - has no copyright" back the original "PD-NorwayGov" will solve the ongoing issue. From a unwanted problematic license to a defensible license. The case can be closed. Anyone who wants to challenge the "PD-NorwayGov" license can then do that in a new deletion requests.
- I will wait a day or two. And do that. Andrez1 (talk) 14:04, 16 July 2023 (UTC)

- This Deletion request can then be closed. The document now have the original license. It is not contested. Andrez1 (talk) 17:39, 18 July 2023 (UTC)

- Delete. It doesn't apply anywhere. See: Commons:Village pump/Copyright#Copyright status of images taken by automated cameras. (Traffic enforcement, speed, red light, etc). The fact that a camera is automated does not determine whether its subject is copyrighted or not. An automated camera can be pointed anywhere. Where it is pointing is what matters. Not the automation. And this template should not be kept according to totaling keep and delete votes. This template does not meet the policies and guidelines of the Commons. It would never be approved at Commons talk:Threshold of originality as it is now. So until it does, which would require its scope to be radically narrowed, this template should be deleted. Because it is already being used on images. For example these images which are not from automated traffic cameras:
- File:Patty Hearst takes part in the April 1974 Hiberna bank raid with other SLA members.jpg
- File:Patty Hearst- Hibernia bank robbery.jpg
- File:Christopherneil.jpg
- I noticed various Patty Hearst security camera files under different image licenses. Such as {{PD-USGov}} since the files were found on FBI pages. Other such security camera photos were under the PD-ineligible license ({{PD-ineligible}}) at some point (such as before the {{PD-automated}} license was added. I am not sure any of those licenses are correct. If the bank made no copyright claim, then I would think the photos were simply in the public domain regardless of where they eventually showed up. I don't know. It needs to be thoroughly discussed at Commons talk:Threshold of originality. That is where other PD-ineligible licenses were discussed.
- Found a Wired article: Do People Caught on Ring Cameras Have Privacy Rights? from May 2022. It says: "The owner of the surveillance footage technically owns the copyright." --Timeshifter (talk) 01:47, 7 April 2023 (UTC)
- That's a non-legal source. It is absolutely true in the United States according to the U.S. Copyright Office: the work must be "created by a human being" (sec. 306) and not "produced by a machine or mere mechanical process that operates randomly or automatically without any creative input or intervention from a human author" (sec. 313.2). —Mdaniels5757 (talk • contribs) 02:06, 7 April 2023 (UTC)
- The problem we'd run into is if the particular arrangement of a camera system to capture an intersection at a certain angle under certain circumstances would qualify as sufficiently creative input from a human author. If courts in the U.S. have ruled that this sort of stuff can be copyrighted we'd run into a possibly fatal problem with this template; as COM:TOO USA notes, [w]orks from other countries which are above the threshold of originality of the United States but below the threshold of originality of the source country are Not OK to upload to Commons (COM:Licensing requires that works be free both in their source country and the United States, so we need the image to be below COM:TOO USA regardless of its country of origin).

The crucial question is “whether the ‘work’ is basically one of human authorship, with the computer [or other device] merely being an assisting instrument, or whether the traditional elements of authorship in the work (literary, artistic, or musical expression or elements of selection, arrangement, etc.) were actually conceived and executed not by man but by a machine.” U.S. COPYRIGHT OFFICE, REPORT TO THE LIBRARIAN OF CONGRESS BY THE REGISTER OF COPYRIGHTS 5 (1966).
- I don't see anything about security cameras in anything discussed so far except in the Wired article. That magazine puts out quality stuff (for a long time now). So I believe they are probably right. A security camera can be put anywhere. Hell, anybody can put a camera on a tripod and a timer and take group photos with themselves in the photo too. Isn't that an "automated" timer camera. Just like many security cameras that take photos every few seconds, minutes, etc.. People can mount automated cameras anywhere. Like all the web cams worldwide taking photos and videos of wildlife, eagle nests, interesting sites, etc.. As I said previously, the fact that it operates by timer is irrelevant. What matters is what the photo or video is about.
- I left a link to this discussion. At Commons talk:Threshold of originality. --Timeshifter (talk) 07:36, 7 April 2023 (UTC)
- If someone sets up an timer camera to take a picture, that's a human author with an assisting instrument (the timer). If someone installs a fixed security camera, there is no human authorship, because nothing copyrightable was conceived or executed by a human. —Mdaniels5757 (talk • contribs) 02:44, 8 April 2023 (UTC)
- The assisting instrument is the fixed security camera whose direction, subject, etc. were all selected by a human. Same as the tripod camera which is also fixed by a human, and whose subject was chosen by a human. No difference. See the US Copyright Office quote higher up. --Timeshifter (talk) 04:03, 8 April 2023 (UTC)

- Info Hi! I'm the person who made this, (Context here.) Feel free to revert or undo, but there's something to be said for a more specific {{PD-ineligible}} tag. I'm not nailed to the wording; the idea, I think, is that an image or work produced by an automated system that involved no human decision-making is ineligible. I'd support making the wording more narrow, e.g., maybe this only applies to works created in the United States, and it has to be clearly a system that did not have a human controller doing anything meaningful. grendel|khan 05:04, 7 April 2023 (UTC)

- Keep The issues raised seem to me to confirm that such files should be tracked, not lost among other files by using less specific templates. The wording should make clear that the automation in itself may not make the file ineligible for copyright and point to a page discussing the issues. As our understanding increases, we can add parameters for specific circumstances, such as more specific PD rationales and notPD ("Although this image was captured in an automatic process, the human input was sufficient to create a copyright in some of the jurisdictions concerned") warning reusers to respect the separate licence and editors not removing it as redundant. –LPfi (talk) 10:19, 7 April 2023 (UTC)
- Info. From a US professional photographer and videographer. Who owns the copyright of a recorded webcam stream? "Jessica would likely be the copyright owner to a recording produced by her webcam,"
- From a US legal site: Who owns the copyright to a screen-recording of a webcam performance that is NOT scripted, the performer or the screen-recorder? "A performer does have a copyright in his/her performance the minute it is performed and publicly shown.

- A photographer/videographer is no legal authority. And Jessica would likely be the owner because the recording depicts something copyrightable she's doing. Performers can absolutely have copyright if they are performing. And UK security cam owners have copyright. But none of that means that this template should be deleted: recordings of non-copyrightable things depicted on CCTV are not copyrightable in the United States. —Mdaniels5757 (talk • contribs) 02:42, 8 April 2023 (UTC)
- I have listed multiple sources more expert than you or me that say differently. But I agree we need more discussion with more legal authorities. That is why the template should be deleted until then so that it is not used until there is more certainty at Commons talk:Threshold of originality where more lawyers and experts hang out concerning PD-ineligible and threshold of originality stuff.
- And you previously said that there is no human authorship. You are ignoring the quote I left from the US Copyright Office. "elements of selection, arrangement, etc.". There is no automated camera I know of that selects what it views, or arranges itself or its subjects. The fact that it is on a timer or motion detection is irrelevant. It could be a human counting the seconds between manually clicking the shutter, watching for motion. So automated cameras of all kinds are "basically one of human authorship, with the computer [or other device] merely being an assisting instrument," says the US Copyright Office. --Timeshifter (talk) 04:03, 8 April 2023 (UTC)

- Info See: en:Threshold of originality#Originality in specific types of works (Link has been fixed). See subsection: "Pre-positioned recording devices". It says this question remains untested in the United States. Also in New Zealand. In the UK it has been tested in the previously mentioned security camera case. Concerning continental European countries there seems to be nothing but speculation.
- So according to Red-tailed hawk's post none of these automated images and videos can be uploaded to the Commons because they are not free images in the US. Uncertainty does not make for a free image or video. If the person or organization that set up the automated camera decides to declare that some of the images or videos are free, then that is a different story. That overrides threshold of originality concerns in all countries.
- The template needs to be deleted. Legal uncertainty does not make for a free image or video. --Timeshifter (talk) 04:37, 8 April 2023 (UTC)
- Deletion of the template does not affect the copyright issues of these types of files. If people believe the files are PD, they will still upload them and will use a more generic template, which won't have a warning and a link to our discussion on the issues. These files will then be lost to janitors among all genuinely PD files. –LPfi (talk) 08:39, 8 April 2023 (UTC)
- Since there is no certainty that there are any automated images that legally can be claimed as PD-ineligible in the US, then what difference does it make if they use another incorrect PD license. Either way the image will have to be deleted. We can put the warning and link on the generic {{PD-ineligible}} license. --Timeshifter (talk) 09:07, 8 April 2023 (UTC)
- There is no consensus that no images can be PD because of them being automated, and thus somebody can conclude that a certain image is PD as automated. At least over here, a copyright requires creative input, such somebody else tasked with setting up the camera wouldn't get the same images. They need to reflect the authors personality. Isn't that true of copyright worldwide? I have a hard time imagining that setting up an automated camera would automatically count as such creative input. Some automated cameras are certainly set up in a creative way, say a wildlife photographer using one, but that doesn't make your run-of-the-mill surveillance camera would create copyrightable photos. –LPfi (talk) 09:57, 8 April 2023 (UTC)

- I do think that from a garbage collection perspective, it would be better to have a unique tracking template for images taken in this manner (this isn't a defense of the validity of the template; it truly looks like an unclear situation to me, and we have COM:PRP for a reason). I would like to see if the WMF has a position on these sorts of copyrights, to clarify what to do in this sort of untested situation. — Red-tailed hawk (nest) 18:17, 8 April 2023 (UTC)
- I will separately note that there are cases of automated (or extremely long) cameras that would appear to me to have the requisite originality. Consider the following two scenarios, for example:
- On the evening December 31, 2023, an employee of NBC New York positioned a camera in Jersey City pointing at New York City. The camera will remain in place, and is set on an automatic timer to take a video starting one hour before sunrise and ending one after sunrise each day; the team wants to capture a video of the sunrise over Manhattan every day for the entire year. After the initial configuration, the camera is fully automated; it starts recording on its own and stops recording on its own.
- On the evening December 31, 2023, an employee of NBC New York positioned a camera in Jersey City pointing at New York City. The camera will remain in place and will capture a continuous video of New York City over the entire year beginning at 00:00 on January 1, 2024 and ending at 00:00 on January 1, 2025. After the initial configuration, the camera is fully automated; it starts recording on its own and stops recording on its own.
- For each scenario, I find myself thinking about the following questions:
- Does this sort of videography have copyright protection in the United States and, if so, do stills taken from the videos also have some form of copyright protection?
- To what extent is this scenario comparable to automated security cameras, and to what extent does it differ?
- If we have answers to those questions, I think we have answers to questions related to other sorts of automated videography (and stills derived therefrom). My gut feeling here is that we're going to need to apply a case-by-case approach to the sort of automated camera setup and the extent to which a human was creatively involved in setting the photo up. That probably leaves some form of a {{PD-automated}} template in place for U.S. works, but I would advocate for some sort of warning/disclaimer to be added to the template to expressly state that this template does not apply to videos where humans had substantial creative input in setting up the automated camera. — Red-tailed hawk (nest) 18:38, 8 April 2023 (UTC)
- Red-tailed hawk. Thanks for the NBC automated video examples, and for linking to Commons:Project scope/Precautionary principle (COM:PRP). If those NBC videos have enough originality to pass the threshold of originality, and thus be copyrightable, then they would not be using any type of {{PD-ineligible}} license template.
- We would have to go to NBC to find out what kind of copyright they are using, and if the copyright was a free one like CC-BY or CC-BY-SA. Then we could use it on the Commons.
- But who is going to make these decisions on originality? We could continue to guess as we are doing now, but I would think then that COM:PRP might apply, and we shouldn't post the images to the Commons.
- We could maybe set up a committee to anticipate future US court rulings, and set up threshold of originality rules based on that. But then that would skirt COM:PRP rules. I agree that this needs to go to the highest levels of arbitration and even to the Wikimedia Foundation. --Timeshifter (talk) 22:05, 8 April 2023 (UTC)

- Info It looks like I've poked a hornet's nest of unclear rulings. From what I can tell (see en:Threshold of originality#Pre-positioned recording devices), the copyright status of the product of pre-positioned or automated cameras in the United States is unclear. Such claims are valid in England, invalid in Russia, and unclear just about everywhere else. At the same time, we have a lot of security camera footage under {{PD-ineligible}}. This decision is above my pay grade; is there a way to get an official ruling from Wikimedia's legal staff one way or the other? The issue is, I think, less the existence of this template and more the unclear copyright status of a whole heap of media currently in the "ineligible" bucket. grendel|khan 20:46, 10 April 2023 (UTC)
- Wikimedia Legal generally does not make "rulings" or serve as an arbitrator for policy decisions on WMF projects. They do issue reports on topics at meta:Wikilegal, and there's a Commons page where suggestions can be made for topics of interest. These reports generally will summarize the legal issues and existing case law, and will probably not reach a black-and-white conclusion. The Commons community can use that as input in making policy decisions. Toohool (talk) 04:19, 11 April 2023 (UTC)
- Even if we get legal advice or clear court cases, we have to apply sound judgement on to what extent the cases are similar to ours – "guess", as Timeshifter puts it. We will never get an absolute line, just guidance on where the line in the water lies. This is the same problem as with de minimis, textlogo, derived work, whatever. The precautionary principle doesn't say we cannot use our sound judgement, to the extent it says anything about copyrightability (which one can argue it doesn't), it says that we shouldn't go too far into the grey zone. Our understanding on where the line goes will probably increase as cases get into court or the law is clarified, and thus a tracking template is valuable. Unless we believe that none or all media by automated cameras are copyrighted, by virtue of being automated, we need a template. Even in the latter case we can retain it, as a speedy template, but I don't believe we will get consensus on that. –LPfi (talk) 09:48, 11 April 2023 (UTC)

- Seems so. I am not certain about "move" or "all", but otherwise yes. It seems we need tracking and a warning for at least some of these files, and a PD-template seems to fit the bill, given suitable wording. Before applying it to many files, we should make sure that what it says will not change in ways that confuse what the person who added the template believed they were saying by doing so. If we need to say something different later, that can be handled with parameters, but a careful original (default) wording is still essential. –LPfi (talk) 10:29, 18 April 2023 (UTC)

We need something that tells editors that it is questionable whether the automated image or video is in the public domain. Maybe {{PD-automated-questionable}}. Then when a decision is made that it is likely that a court will determine a specific subcategory is in the public domain then we can move the image to that subcategory. For example: {{PD-automated-questionable-traffic}} to {{PD-automated-traffic}}. If that is what some authoritative decision making process here determines. --Timeshifter (talk) 15:02, 18 April 2023 (UTC)

- Excerpt from that template says: "The Supreme Court of the Russian Federation ... the mentioned Session Resolution applies to any photowork or videowork made by automatic camera for administrative violation record." Is that referring to things like traffic cams? And will we require court rulings? --Timeshifter (talk) 12:44, 1 May 2023 (UTC)
- Keep - Hasn't this been discussed several times already? Most countries require human authorship to create a copyright. The United States definitely requires human authorship and that's the most important jurisdiction for Commons. Sure the UK allows such images to be copyrighted, but the UK allows almost anything to be copyrighted (including AI generated images). A warning about re-use in the UK can be added to the template. Nosferattus (talk) 00:19, 2 May 2023 (UTC)
- all cameras are set up directly or indirectly by humans. the difference is the "level of automation" in its operation. here are some that are ranked by less automation (more human decision) to more automation, in my opinion:
- a camera doing a time lapse. the human set its optical settings (iso, aperture, etc.) as well as the timing of the time lapse (when it starts, how many seconds is the interval, etc.).
- an infrared-triggered camera. the human chose its location (path where wildlife frequents) and set its setting. (but when it makes photos/videos is triggered by infrared sensors, not controlled by humans.)
- a cctv camera with human supervision. someone in the control room could change its angle, zoom, etc., but the cam usually just keeps running by itself.
- a cctv camera without human supervision. humans only check the footage from the hard disk when they want. otherwise the cam keeps running by itself.
- from which point onward does copyright emerge? this question can only be decided by parliaments and courts.
- personally, i would think that ordinary doorcams or the kind of cctv installed on the ceiling in banks have very little human input when they capture videos/photos. RZuo (talk) 15:18, 15 June 2023 (UTC)
- however, even with the most unrestrictive laws, it's fairly easy as the footage owner to get copyright. all i need to do is adjusting the saturation/exposure/contrast etc. before publishing the photos/videos. my editing would ensure copyright.
- as such, such templates become useless. you can hardly verify whether the publishers have edited the photos/videos. you can only assume they did, so they own the copyright to at least the versions they publish. RZuo (talk) 15:25, 15 June 2023 (UTC)

No FoP for 2D works in Japan A1Cafel (talk) 15:33, 6 April 2023 (UTC)
- Keep Why do you keep repeating simplistic falsehoods like "No FoP for 2D works in Japan" ?
- Japan does have FoP, except that for "artistic works" it's limited to non-commercial use, i.e. inadequate for Commons. But this isn;t an artistic work, it's a simple piece of utilitarian signage (and Japanese copyright law takes a broad view of what is "utilitarian"). Andy Dingley (talk) 00:51, 7 April 2023 (UTC)
- @Andy Dingley: Would you care to elaborate Japanese copyright law takes a broad view of what is "utilitarian"? In my opinion, it's a matter of thershold of originality and this graphic may exceed the thershold of originality of Japan as per the cases of Japan's court.
- How can a 2D graphic become "utilitarian"? Just because it's a graphic used as signage? What about using it in a book as illustration?
- FYI, Tokyo District Court stated that the feather is copyrightable and the logo of Kakugawa infringed the copyright of the said feather.
- I would vote Delete here. Teetrition (talk) 08:12, 25 April 2023 (UTC)
- My reading of Japanese law here has mostly been about toys and models, and some about decorative objects, particularly high-end lacquerware. There is a strong tradition in Japan that a mundane object can, and should be, made beautiful by careful design. This has led to an acceptance in copyright law that excellence in design of itself does not engender copyright protection. A particularly beautiful teapot is still a teapot, and treated as an everyday teapot, even if its shape is the finest and best-proportioned ever made. There is a recognition of applied art beyond this, such as your book cover design, where it is not part of the essential form and nature of any book that it shall have its cover decorated by a feather. Thus the feather is something in addition, thus protectable as an additional work.
- In this case, the sign is a pictorial illustration of the process implied by its meaning. That (however finely executed) is its function. It is not some additional artistry applied to it. Andy Dingley (talk) 10:35, 25 April 2023 (UTC)
- @Andy Dingley: You've said things like toys, models and some decorative objects. These objects are all 3D objects rather than a 2D graphic. I think we only talk about 3D objects when we refer to applied art (utility) ("応用美術" in Japanese). In your opinion, if the people in the poster are carefully painted just like these women in this picture, this poster is still not copyrightable just because it's a illustration of the process implied by its meaning? The graphic in this poster is actually unnecessary. The station could have used text only. Teetrition (talk) 14:33, 25 April 2023 (UTC)

- PS: And I uploaded another stamp photo yesterday (File:Stamp Port Martin.jpg), with the same kind of problem (own photo, but engraver died in the 80s)… Pepys (talk) 15:33, 6 April 2023 (UTC)
- Commons does not accept fair use images. Unsure if it would be acceptable locally uploaded on en-wiki, but it might be if the text discusses the stamp. The license you used (and the "own work" claim) also seems to indicate that you were the artist; be careful of that. If it's not your own photo, we have to find a public domain tag, or a license from the author. Carl Lindberg (talk) 15:02, 6 April 2023 (UTC)
- Ah, apologies, thought it was a scan. For these situations, see Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag -- the photo in this case is essentially a copy of another work, so you may or may not actually have a copyright on your photograph, depending on country. Even if there was, it would be a Commons:Derivative work where we also need a license from the underlying author, if it's not old enough to be public domain. This can happen for photos of copyrighted paintings or sculpture or any other copyrightable work -- often the photo is copyrightable, but counts as a derivative work. At any rate, thank you for respecting this stuff -- it's never easy, and we get way too many uploads which don't. That other photo is likely a problem too -- see Commons:Stamps; some countries allow it, or have very different eras of stamps which are allowed. France however seems to have nothing special we can use. Carl Lindberg (talk) 17:30, 6 April 2023 (UTC)
- My turn to apologize: I only used the term "photo" because you mentioned it in your first reply, which mislead me. Both jpegs are actually scans. (I understood afterwards that there is a different copyright policy for photos and scans.) So: in the present case, "own scan" + "70-year copyright problem" mean that both jpegs should be deleted... Too bad... The File:Stamp Port Martin.jpg shows an old Antarctic station now derelict, the ruins of which are difficult to take now in photograph. Pepys (talk) 07:30, 7 April 2023 (UTC)

This file was initially tagged by Abzeronow as no license (No license since). The photographer, A. H. Black was a part of the North Carolina Division of Archives and History which is not part of the federal government. North Carolina is not one of the states whose government works are public domain by default. https://copyright.lib.harvard.edu/states/north_carolina/ North Carolina does say this as far as their copyright policy https://www.nc.gov/disclaimer-terms-use "Unless otherwise noted on an individual document, the state of North Carolina grants permission to copy and distribute non-image files, documents, and information for non-commercial use, provided they are copied and distributed without alteration.
Photos and other images appearing on our websites have been purchased with a license for limited use. Use of any photos or images appearing on any state website is strictly prohibited." This is obviously not free enough for Commons.
As the photograph was published between 1978 and 1989, North Carolina could have registered the photograph for copyright within five years of its publication in 1986. Abzeronow (talk) 16:06, 6 April 2023 (UTC)
- Are you able to find a registration for this photograph? — Red-tailed hawk (nest) 04:23, 4 May 2023 (UTC)
- I have not been able to find a copyright registration so I'm thinking that this is probably public domain after all. Abzeronow (talk) 16:01, 4 May 2023 (UTC)
- I've double checked, this is not among the copyright registrations for the North Carolina Division of Archives and History or for the photographer Allison Harris Black. {{PD-US-1978-89}} Abzeronow (talk) 15:45, 1 September 2023 (UTC)

This file was initially tagged by Wilfredor as Copyvio (copyvio) and the most recent rationale was: the based image was deleted because copyvio. In use, should be given an opportunity to find a replacement. King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 03:55, 6 April 2023 (UTC)
- The file cites File:Barnstar of Diligence Hires.png and File:WikiProject Awards Logotype.png as what it is based on (with "Imagen" instead of "file", thus redlinks. However, the coat of arms in the middle isn't found in either, so I suppose it is a third unnamed file that was deleted as copyvio. Could you, Wilfredor link it, so the deletion rationale can be evaluated? –LPfi (talk) 08:29, 26 May 2023 (UTC)
- I'm not admin, I can't see the file deleted, maybe this, I remember that it was nominated to deletion by myself --Wilfredor (talk) 14:24, 26 May 2023 (UTC)
Kept: Third image doesn't match file Wilfredor provided. No prejudice towards renomination if copyvio evidence is found. --Abzeronow (talk) 16:20, 14 September 2023 (UTC)
