[edit]

Thiese files may meet the criteria for speedy deletion. These files are copyright violations because it is copyrighted and not published under a free license. The files are subjects to speedy deletion unless it is relicensed according to the Commons licensing policy. This file is a copyright violation for the following reason: It is not known when it was published. Licence is invalid. No evidence that the author died 70 years ago. Photos scanned from website. Please refer to Commons:Publication. There is no evidence that it was published 70 years ago. There are many indications that these are photographs taken by a private person. Please refer to Commons:Project scope/Evidence. The uploader failed to prove that these photos were published over 70 years ago. Date of taking of the pictures is unknown. Respecting copyright is not about making claims without evidence. It never means that someone can download a photo and a recipe that they introduce shortly after creating it. The photo comes from a private collection with a high probability. In many cases, the uploader adds a fictitious date of creation of the photo, which is not confirmed in the linked source pages. The pictures probably comes from the family archives. There is no confirmation that it is a postcard. Many such photos were kept in private archival collections. No one can ever immediately assume that a photo was published immediately after it was taken. It shouldn't be discretionary. This can never be an arbitrary decision by one editor. --5.173.116.176 12:08, 20 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
