I've nominated this image because of the non-free drawing of boots. --Eleassar (t/p) 13:44, 24 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Everything as soon as possible - it is the only way for keeping the Commons license-clean. Do not care about the real need of such pictures in Wikipedias. I swear I will not upload any new pictures made by me in my home country of Kazakhstan. BR, Ds02006 (talk) 08:10, 24 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I've replied at your talk page. --Eleassar (t/p) 13:44, 24 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

As far I know, there are some exceptions from the FOP (low resolution, common view on city, and others). Maybe it would be possible to save some of them taking into account these cases. That picture (Shoe Repair) is very common for all soviet cities. There is no any special features for Almaty and other cities. And it's almost impossible to recognize any city via such kind of photos. Unfortunately, no one keeps the FOP in post-soviet countries. All peoples make snapshots then post them in different social nets. This law is relevant only for Wikimedia. It's a single area in the world where this law is kept. Nobody knows about Freedom of Panorama, and when I tell them about it, they see at me as being crazy man. All this photos that are supposed to delete made by enthusiasts that want to represent own country in the Wikimedia. It's not amazing why it comes hurt for us.

  •  Keep Please re-check:
  • pictures "may be published only if the depicted copyrighted base work is not the main subject of the image" - there is a picture, that shows a city-view combining various buildings and as such has no copyrighted "main subject of the image": Almaty01.JPG
  • some of the buildings or shown excerpts of its facades are of such a simplicistic nature, that they do not pass the threshold of originality, e.g. extremely unfinished buildings. Examples: E8554-Almaty-Riding-the-crane.jpg, E8621-Almaty-apartment-block.jpg, Shoe Repair (4055599706).jpg, ALABankPozitiv.JPG, Almaty kazakhstan 1.jpg
Except for E8554-Almaty-Riding-the-crane.jpg, I can't agree they do not pass the threshold of originality.
The main subject of Almaty01.JPG is the circus, which is clearly evident from the caption.
In any case, thank you for the review. Regards. --Eleassar (t/p) 13:04, 26 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
The link is mentioned right in the beginning: COM:FOP#Kazakhstan. If less than 50 years have passed since the architect's death, it is copyrighted. --Eleassar (t/p) 06:54, 1 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
