I do not believe this is an own image from the Hebrew Wikipedia. I found a similar image uploaded in 2008 at http://communabuilder.tapuz.co.il/UsersFolders/zal/images/0906200786397.jpg User:Zscout370 (Return fire) 04:44, 7 January 2012 (UTC)
- Delete - the {{FoP-Israel}} template does not apply, see argument on File talk:IDF insignia.png. /Pieter Kuiper (talk) 04:53, 7 January 2012 (UTC)
- I am still at a toss-up over the FOP issue, but my focus is that this image is not an own work at all and as we are discussing at http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Administrators%27_noticeboard#Important:_Transfers_from_he.wikipedia.org many images coming from he.wikipedia are having severe copyright/sourcing problems.

- Keep. The question was raised on 2009, on the discussion page Pieter linked. the answer there is clear and I see no point in re-cycling this question over and over. matanya • talk 08:47, 8 January 2012 (UTC)
- Keep. This insignia is considered as legislation which is PD is Israel. Tomer A. (talk) 09:44, 8 January 2012 (UTC)
- Keep—Tomer's argument should be enough, but even if we look at Israeli copyright law separately—the image was owned by the state and created over 50 years ago, which makes it PD. Example of use in 1949. Case closed. —Ynhockey (talk) 19:15, 8 January 2012 (UTC)
- I agree that the overall design is public domain, however the policies we have at COM:COA says each representation has their own copyright. We have versions of the emblem that we either self-drawn or extracted from IDF documents or Isaeli law. This was just copied from a clipart website.

Comment: The uploader at the above website could have taken it from here. User:Yanivreg at he.wiki was active before 2008. Maybe Yanivreg can enlighten us to its source. (It is too crude to be a clipart in my opinion). Chesdovi (talk) 13:52, 19 January 2012 (UTC)
