This image had been speedy-tagged as Flickrvio by User:LX with the rationale "The Flickr user is not the copyright holder and therefore cannot issue a valid license", as the EXIF data state "Foto: Tor Erik H. Mathiesen / SCANPIX".
I've converted the speedy to regular DR to allow for a discussion, as the image is on Commons since 2012 and as the Flickr-source page states "Foto: Holbergprisen / Marit Hommedal / NTB scanpix", which suggests that the photographer may have transferred his copyright to "Holbergprisen". -- Túrelio (talk) 20:11, 21 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

All this will, of course, require confirmation from Scanpix. They're typically not in the business of releasing their content under a free license any more than Getty, Reuters or AFP. LX (talk, contribs) 21:34, 21 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Deleted: Only one out of a series of similar photos are licensed under CC on the Flickr page. PRP. --Sebari – aka Srittau (talk) 23:26, 2 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
