- @Hanooz It looks yep! IIRC a moderator named Taivo used to delete creative works with embedded copyright symbol, though embedding such a watermark is prohibited.Rohalamin (talk) 16:54, 24 April 2023 (UTC)
- I don't think that was the case. Asking @Taivo: for their opinion. Hanooz 17:03, 24 April 2023 (UTC)

- I have been photographing for a long time to publish on Wikipedia, and I also publish my photos on Wikipedia with this signature.
- I didn't think this would become a reason for you to delete it.

- @Standardwhale Remove the whole of the watermark. Take a look here. Rohalamin (talk) 16:48, 24 April 2023 (UTC)

Keep. The copyright mark is not a reason to delete a file, if it is otherways acceptable photo. The watermark can be removed. But if the file has other problems as well (they are not pointed here), then watermark can be additional reason towards deletion. In my opinion the file can stay in Commons, especially after removing the watermark. Taivo (talk) 17:12, 24 April 2023 (UTC)
Keep there's no any issue since Standardwhale is a photographer. --Orijentolog (talk) 00:54, 11 May 2023 (UTC)
Kept: per above. Note that the copyright symbol does not mean "all rights reserved" - a photo with CC4 license is still copyright protected. --P 1 9 9 ✉ 16:01, 18 May 2023 (UTC)
