[edit]

Videogame screenshots are derivative works. The uploader took them, but we also need Assassin's Creed Valhalla developer's/publisher's permission.

According the Ubisoft's website, the creator of Assassin's Creed Valhalla, they allow use of their content for any non-commercial purposes here: https://www.ubisoft.com/en-gb/help/article/posting-copyrighted-ubisoft-material/000062649. Is that acceptable enough to be posted on Commons? Matthew T Rader (talk) 03:08, 8 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for the link. Altough it only mentions videos, I think we can assume similar terms apply to screenshots. Unfortunately Commons doesn't allow any non-commercial limitations. TFerenczy (talk) 09:08, 8 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, I guess I can't defend keeping these images on Commons. I'll go ahead and delete them. I thought because they are technically not screenshots, I actually composed those images, I set the color, the lighting, the contrast, the focal length, and what is in focus, just like traditional photography, I had the full rights to the images. After further reading and research, I learned I do own *some* rights to the images, such as being able to use them on my website, use them as art pieces, etc. But not for any commercial purposes since I do not own the content within them and that content falls under copyright and I see that Commons, as you pointed out, doesn't allow any non-commercial limitations.

Oh never mind, I see that I don't have rights to delete them. Matthew T Rader (talk) 16:43, 8 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
