[edit]

Lots of images all found elsewhere on the web. Logos from different parties; different resolutions. These are not self-created, and the uploader almost certainly doesn't own the rights.

Hi Magog, in my talk page you have write that I'm doing copyright violations but I'm not, I work for the newspaper of my country called El Salvador, and just 1 photo that I upload that is Schafik Handal.jpg is not mine, but is from a friends called Susana. she works for another newspaper called La Página, so I want to know why are you saying that my files are copyright violations when they're not. My work is for free use in Wikipedia and in my country as well. I'm 39 years old from San Salvador and I'm Oscar. In the country of El Salvador. So there's nothing to say I'm doing copyright violations. I just want to clarify that because my only goal is to make the articles of my country like the ones I create and I co-work to make them and modified them. So I need to know.
Greetings, from San Salvador, El Salvador. I'm a Journalist and a Photographer and my name is Oscar I'm 39 years old, trying to make articles from my country a little bit better. All I upload is my own work. I hope your reply. And sorry if my english is not very good, but I'm not a native english speaker.
Thanks for your comprehension. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Oscarter13 (talk • contribs) 21:47, March 22, 2015‎ (UTC)
@Oscarter13: if you took the photographs for the newspaper, then I believe the newspaper actually owns the rights in most circumstances. Does the newspaper approve of the licensing for all these images? Same thing goes for your friend. Magog the Ogre (talk) (contribs) 22:05, 22 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
@Magog the Ogre yes they do, the newspaper gave to their workers the license too, that's why I'm using them, if they wouldn't not give me the approve I would not do this. I want you to understand that because I'm working trying to make articles of my country better, using my own work with the license of the newspaper El Diario de Hoy, La Prensa Gráfica and La Página. I worked with Medio Lleno too. Thanks for your comprehension I just want to do better. And if you can help me with my work to not receive notifications of copyright violations proving that is my own work because what I see is that I'm saying is my own work and they continue saying is not mine, maybe because they see my work in other pages as Skyscrapercity because the last time i co-worked in the Antiguo Cuscatlán article and they erased my picture that I took. You can look for it in skyscrapercity Área Metropolitana de San Salvador. The capital city where Antiguo Cuscatlán is part of it because is the metropolitan zone. I want to work without these notifications and if you can help me I will be really thanked.
Thanks amigo. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Oscarter13 (talk • contribs) 22:40, March 22, 2015‎ (UTC)
@Oscarter13: ¿Puede usted seguir las instrucciones que se quedan aquí? Querremos un email de una dirrección official que representa el periódico. Siempre puede interrogarme si tenga preguntas.Magog the Ogre (talk) (contribs) 23:14, 22 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
@Magog the Ogre I just want to tell you that in my country there's no laws for copyright and I don't have any official license, it's just that I can use them because they say that those pictures are from public domain. And everyone can uses it. But any laws for copyright and here is not any license. What can I do — Preceding unsigned comment added by Oscarter13 (talk • contribs) 23:06, March 23, 2015‎ (UTC)
@Oscarter13: this is not true at all. The laws are right here: [1]. As for being able to use the photographs, the government probably provides them to press agencies to use, but that doesn't mean they allow everyone to use them. Unless they explicitly license them under a free license, we can't use them.
As for your self-created photographs, if we receive an email from an address associated with the periodical, we can probably keep the images. How you go about this is between you and your employer (that said, please be honest and follow the law). Magog the Ogre (talk) (contribs) 03:31, 29 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
@Oscarter13: I'm seeing the law that you probably are operating under. Art. 41 of the aforementioned link:
“ No obstante, la utilización de la imagen será lícita cuando haya sido captada en el curso regular de acontecimientos públicos y responda a fines culturales o informativos, o se realice en asociación con hechos o acontecimientos de interés público. ”
That is essentially the equivalent of fair use, which we unfortunately don't allow on Commons. Magog the Ogre (talk) (contribs) 21:08, 29 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
 Keep
In use, in scope, too simple for copyright. Nuke the rest. Fry1989 eh? 18:25, 29 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
What is the source for your information about the threshold of originality of El Salvador? There is currently no information about this country at COM:TOO. --Stefan4 (talk) 18:48, 29 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Oh not you! You really think the extremely common Christian Fish symbol and three letters is enough? The second image has the same issue, extremely common 4-leaved clover symbol and the rest is letters. The twirl on the third may be enough to make it copyrighted, but I don't think so. Fry1989 eh? 18:55, 29 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
You're probably right that the fish symbol isn't copyrightable. But the second is a specific depiction of the four-leaf clover; unless it's found elsewhere, I think it might be copyrightable. For comparison, even the names of television programs are considered copyrightable (not trademarked) according to Ecuadoran law until they are no longer on the air.(reference: Art. 8) Magog the Ogre (talk) (contribs) 21:08, 29 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
In that case I would agree. Fry1989 eh? 21:32, 29 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
My country is El Salvador, not Ecuador, those are flags from political parties I don't think they're copyrightable because they are just selected in my country from different places to use them as a flag, that's the problem that you're from the US and I'm talking of El Salvador, in where is a third world country and here are not laws for it, even though the newspaper and tv programs use pictures with copyright to their things and no one tells them they're doing something ilegal because in El Salvador there's NOT legislation on those things.

@Oscarter13 well that was a rather embarrassing oversight on my part. I will take a look at this ASAP. Magog the Ogre (talk) (contribs) 01:36, 1 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Deleted: deleted everything except PDC El Salvador.jpg No evidence that those files are free in both the US and the country of origen. Natuur12 (talk) 14:24, 12 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

Questionable authorship claims based on the low/inconsistent resolutions, missing/inconsistent metadata, previous publications found elsewhere, and the uploader's history.
