Commons:Deletion requests/Image:ThutmoseI.jpg
This image Image:ThutmoseI.jpg has no author or source identified. In fact it is actually a copyright violation from this site http://images.suite101.com/390585_com_thutmosei.jpg which is banned by your spam web filters. The people from the banned web site tagged it as Thutmose I when it is actually Thutmose III as it comes from a temple built by Queen Hatshepsut and Thutmose III. It would be like calling a photo of President George Bush II as George Bush I instead--just historically inaccurate. --Leoboudv (talk) 02:04, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
- Please specify: Please read Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag. As this is a faithful 2D-reproduction, it is not a copyright violation. But you claim, that the description is wrong and in fact the painting shows Thutmosel III, instead of Thutmosel I? Do you have any further information to support this? --h-stt !? 05:15, 22 August 2008 (UTC)
- A different and quite legitimate picture of the same relief appears here: Image:Luxor, hieroglyphic decorations inside the Temple of Hatshepsut, Egypt, Oct 2004 A.jpg In it, you can see the rectangular shaped box above the beetle in the king's royal cartouche. It reads as king (royal name) 'Menkheperre' as in 'Menkheperre' Thutmose III. In contrast, the royal name of Thutmose I was 'Akheperenre' as this photo of his cartouche shows: Image:Thutmose I Family-83d40m-highContrast.jpg The dubious web source mislabelled the copyviolated image. Besides, do we want images from the web sites of spammers. --Leoboudv (talk) 02:43, 23 August 2008 (UTC)
- OK, so the picture is wrongly labeled and should be moved to a name that expresses the correct description. And with PD-art, I don't care the least where the picture is from, but that is of course specific for this license. --h-stt !? 16:31, 24 August 2008 (UTC)
- If an administrator wants to alter the title to ThutmoseIII.jpg, I have no objections...as there is no image with this title at present. You wouldn't call Bush II as Bush I now would you? But if this move can't be done, please delete it. Thank You --Leoboudv (talk) 07:05, 25 August 2008 (UTC)
- It's not critical that the image be renamed, so long as the description page is accurate (consider that many perfectly usable images have nonsense names like P9876785.jpg). I also note that it's used by at least 9 different wikis, so we're not going to delete until all those are taken care of in any case. Stan Shebs (talk) 03:33, 10 September 2008 (UTC)
- Comment If the name is changed, then historical accuracy is preserved. Unless people access the details of this image, people will automatically assume its Thutmose III. --Leoboudv (talk) 04:05, 11 September 2008 (UTC)
- Dear Stan, Did you know that all 9 different language wiki's are using this image of Thutmose III for their articles on Thutmose I according to this: [1] This is why the image has to be renamed Image:ThutmoseIII.jpg. It is causing endless confusion and people on the non-English language sites ALL think it is Thutmose I, not III. Its like using a picture of Bush II for an article on Bush I. Just historically inaccurate. --Leoboudv (talk) 10:09, 13 September 2008 (UTC)

- Like I said, upload a copy under the correct name, fix all the wikis to use the new image, and then I'll be happy to delete that one. No point in complaining until you do at least that much - only the deletion requires any admin powers. Stan Shebs (talk) 13:31, 13 September 2008 (UTC)
- rename it please, Leoboudv is right. – Alensha SL egy cica :) 20:48, 13 September 2008 (UTC)
- I have removed the image from all the different language wiki sites. It is used in only some Emirjp sites. You know I can't upload an image when I don't know the source or license. The best solution is just to rename it as ThutmoseIII.jpg (or else delete it) --Leoboudv (talk) 03:48, 13 October 2008 (UTC)
Deleted, since not used in article space anymore. (It was still used in nl:Portaal:Egyptologie/Galerie when I checked, again labelled Thutmose I...) Please do not re-upload this image, not even under a correct name. If you must, use a crop of the far superior Image:Luxor, hieroglyphic decorations inside the Temple of Hatshepsut, Egypt, Oct 2004 A.jpg instead, which is moreover properly sourced and licensed. Or simply use that file unchanged. Lupo 13:39, 13 October 2008 (UTC)
