Images uploaded by Ph931221

[edit]
The parish church of Vuollerim in Lappland

User:Ph931221 has uploaded many images from Northern Sweden. This picture of the church of Vuollerim in the morning is a smaller duplicate of this one (shown on the right), by a Flickr user Regina Schwarz (user name ReginaF). It has a Creative Commons Attribution 2.0 license on Flickr, so there is no problem in uploading it here under that license, attributing the real photographer, as I have now done. But Ph931221 has uploaded it here as public domain, claiming that it is his own work. This is a simple duplicate, requires no discussion, and can be deleted as such later. I am just using it as the first example of images uploaded by Ph931221 that can also be found on Flickr.

If Ph931221 would be identical to ReginaF at Flickr, this would not be a problem. But this does not seem to be the case.

This image of the bridge at Seskarön, also uploaded by Ph931221 corresponds to this image (all rights reserved) by another Flickr user, named Henri Bonell.

This image of a monument at Porjus is identical to this one by yet another Flickr user (all rights reserved).

This image of the church of Karesuando is identical to this one from yet another Flickr user again (one who has several other images taken in Karesuando).

I haven't tried to find sources for all the pictures uploaded by Ph931221, but I find it difficult to assume that any of these images really is the "own work by uploader", as the image pages all state, and that the uploader is legally able to "release [them] into the public domain", as s/he has done.

I'm not sure if I can nominate all images just on the suspicion, so I will limit myself to the ones above and let an administrator decide what to do with the rest. --Hegvald (talk) 03:22, 9 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete all. Sources for most images are very easy to find using google image search. Image:Vistträsk.jpg from [1], Image:Tärendö 1.jpg from [2], Image:Svappavaara 4.jpg from [3], which says source LKAB, Image:Svappavaara 1.jpg from [4] /Ö 13:10, 9 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
The user was probably just being lucky with the image by ReginaF... /grillo (talk) 14:49, 19 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
