Deleted because of no FOP (Commons:Deletion requests/File:Antipolo - National Shrine.jpg for ref.) But enwiki article states the current structure was completed in 1954, with the year 1983 as the year of its promotion as a cathedral (promotion of status, but that didn't changed its fundamental architecture). Also per updated Commons:FOP Philippines. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 06:27, 22 August 2020 (UTC)

 Support per above and w:Antipolo Cathedral. The deletion reason provided in the DR was incorrect. Ankry (talk) 06:00, 3 September 2020 (UTC)
 Oppose as following my stand at the bldg of the prptestant church below. 1951 to 1972 bldgs are not ok. Mrcl lxmna (talk) 15:01, 7 September 2020 (UTC)

Files in Category:Exterior of the Cathedral of the Holy Child (Aglipayan), Manila

The following files were deleted because of "no FOP in the PHL." Ref. Commons:Deletion requests/Files in Category:Exterior of the Cathedral of the Holy Child (Aglipayan), Manila. But per enwiki article, it was completed on May 8, 1969 (inauguration date) so it falls under the exemption as stated in the revised Commons:FOP Philippines (buildings completed before November 1972).

JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 08:21, 29 August 2020 (UTC)

  • Reply from requestor Despite being marked as "Maybe" for 1951–1972 buildings, it is still listed among the "exceptions" at Commons:FOP Philippines, which means they should be OK. The lack of actual cases do not signify that people are faced with stringent restrictions in terms of photography and in manners of usage, at least to buildings that are old enough. AFAIK potential copyright issues may arise at contemporary-era buildings (most esp. buildings built after the post-EDSA People Power revolution of 1986) and also to sculptures that are truly considered special works of art, such as the recent deletions of photos of famous Lion's Head in Baguio and the photos of the noteworthy Sigaw sa Pugad Lawin in Quezon City in early 2010s. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 04:11, 30 August 2020 (UTC)
  •  Comment We should make one global decision whether to accept Philippine buildings from 1951 to 1972, and change the "maybe" to "probably" or "probably not" once consensus is reached. Otherwise, decisions will be made based not on the merits of the case but on the inclination of the closing admin. We see this problem on graffiti and URAA cases as well. -- King of ♥ 13:43, 1 September 2020 (UTC)
@King of Hearts: is there a need to open a new discussion about this at Commons:Village pump/Copyright or another forum? JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 16:08, 1 September 2020 (UTC)
That might be a good idea. -- King of ♥ 16:48, 1 September 2020 (UTC)

@Nat: update.Making an inference at Clindberg's analysis at Commons:Village pump/Copyright#PHL buildings from August 1951–November 1972, 1951–72 bldgs should be fine. "The Berne Convention does state though that it's matter for domestic legislation on how photos of architecture etc. would be protected, and that legislation did not exist until 1972. I'm not sure that the question of photos of buildings has ever come up in court there, so I'm not sure what the de facto treatment is -- it's possible photos of buildings are simply used without consequence there." JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 12:44, 7 September 2020 (UTC)

  • Carl stated right before: " It seems as though there are still questions on how treaties become operative law in the Philippines, though (given that the Philippine Senate did concur to the Berne Convention in 1950, effective 1951) it would be reasonably valid law. That link is a presidential proclamation from March 1955, which states that every article and clause thereof may be observed and fulfilled with good faith by the Republic of the Philippines and the citizens thereof." Architectural works between 1951-1972 are still a huge maybe and maybes are generally a "not ok" per COM:CARES and COM:PCP. Ìch heiss Nat. Redd mìt mìr.🥨 14:49, 7 September 2020 (UTC)
    • Yep. It could even be the case that architecture was protected but they still needed a copyright notice to get that protection, since technically the notice requirements were not removed until 1972. It sounds like there were no court cases in that period which could have answered that question. There are a bunch of "maybe" questions for that intervening period. It may be exacerbated by any type of de facto ignoring of that possibility -- i.e. maybe people use photos of buildings commercially all the time but nobody has bothered to sue over it. It would take losing an infringement case to change such behavior. And we're trying to guess how that would turn out with basically no precedent. Carl Lindberg (talk) 21:57, 7 September 2020 (UTC)

Again, Just visited here. if your argument is correct Nat, them bldgs completed that period is NOT OK. Then OPPOSE. Mrcl lxmna (talk) 14:59, 7 September 2020 (UTC)

Oblation photo/s if de minimis

The following images were deleted because no FoP in the Philippines. Nevertheless, if some or any of these photos show the copyrighted statue 'incidentally, and/or if the photo focuses more on the plaza and the Quezon Hall (1950 bldg.)', these can be restored. I used available evidence (mostly the "cryptic file names"), since deleted photos are virtually invisible to me. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 13:02, 12 September 2020 (UTC)

Deleted because: Commons:Deletion requests/File:Magsaysay Park Davao.jpg (no FoP). But I assume it is a park, so COM:DM might apply. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 16:10, 12 September 2020 (UTC)

 Info From the image description: "This 25 meter long tri-pillar obelisk with the statue of Ramon Magsaysay is made by the Davao Chapter of the Philippine Veterans Legion and was turned over to the City Government of Davao in honor of the third President of the Republic of the Philippines". The same monument can be seen through Google Streetview [1]. Thuresson (talk) 19:01, 12 September 2020 (UTC)
Per http://davaocitybybattad.blogspot.com/2011/10/magsaysay-park.html?m=1 , it was built sometime between 1957 (Magsaysay's death) and July 31, 1960, the year on which the Davao Chapter of the Philippine Veterans Legion turned over the monument to the City Government of Davao. Per the wording, it is assumed that they turned over the rights (even moral rights) to the city government ({{PD-PhilippineGov}}). Like the possible applicability of PD-gov for Manila Film Center and other structures in the Philippines now owned by the government. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 09:59, 13 September 2020 (UTC)

 Not done: Ownership does not equate holding the copyright. The municipal government owns the tangible embodiment of the work, but the copyright remains with the creator / commissioner (unclear situation there) unless it was transferred in writing and signed by the first copyright holder as defined by the law. --Ìch heiss Nat. Redd mìt mìr.🥨 00:39, 30 September 2020 (UTC)

Two Robinsons photos by KatorseNiAmang

Files were deleted because no FOP in the Philippines. But through the low COM:TOO reason which saved File:Sm megamall.jpg from deletion, it can be considered as having low TOO as a mall building and more utilitarian in purpose than a work of art. Are malls of the Philippines works of architectural art? I doubt this notion. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 19:11, 12 September 2020 (UTC)

 I withdraw my nomination. It seems malls are not exempted from this threshold of originality, as evidenced by a critical section of the law of the Philippines (under Sec. 172, chapter II) provided by that Mrcl lxmna: "172.2. Works are protected by the sole fact of their creation, irrespective of their mode or form of expression, as well as of their content, quality and purpose."

Stated files were deleted because no FOP in the PHL.

- But if this is the w:Don Roman Santos Building (my assumption only), this should be PD and undeleted.

- if these are indeed having low COM:TOO as claimed by Ubcule, then these should be undeleted too. This is evidenced by the similarities of architectures of the branches of the bank, and I doubt they are of the same architectural firm.

Per https://m.facebook.com/pages/category/Religious-Organization/omphdumaguete/about/, 1966 bldg. Absolutely falls under the exceptions at the updated COM:FOP Philippines. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 10:29, 13 September 2020 (UTC)

While I personally think, that it was not the intention of anybody that the Berne Convention became a substitute for local copyright law (its intention was to grant the same protection for foreign works as granted for local ones), we cannot go on here due to some doubts raised concerning 1951-1972 architetural works. We need to gather wider consensus about how to treat these works in Commons before taking a decission here. Ankry (talk) 13:10, 26 September 2020 (UTC)
@Ankry: nothing has happened in this VFC discussion, no conclusion has been reached before its archival. I began a new discussion about 3 weeks later, but I put that on hold after new update from Howhontanozaz at Commons talk:Copyright rules by territory/Philippines#New discussion on PHL FoP, in which they said that IPOPHL is now considering the addition of FoP as one of the possible amendments in the ongoing review of the present copyright law, but there's no assurance if it will be included in the final bill (an amendment of RA 8293). How added, however, that if IPOPHL "sees the need to insert a FoP provision in our existing laws, then sadly, I would conclude that as of now, there is no FoP in our country." The new discussion remained stale until it was archived earlier today.
In relation to 1951–72 buildings, two DR's made by the certain Mrcl lxmna were closed as kept, the Commons:Deletion requests/Files in Category:ABS-CBN Broadcasting Center (involving the photos of 1968 ABS-CBN Building) and Commons:Deletion requests/Files in Category:Antipolo Cathedral (involving more than a hundred photos of 1954 Antipolo Cathedral). So I can assume that photos of 1951–72 Philippine buildings should be OK. The lack of case law should mean that it is allowed. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 14:59, 28 September 2020 (UTC)
As noted above, if I base on my personal opinion, I would  Weak support undeletion. If I base on Commons policies, I would declare  On hold until we have a legal opinion (not from international users, but from a lawyer familiar with Philipine copyright law). I cannot help with this.

File was deleted at Commons:Deletion requests/Image:Bimbo el oso del pan.jpg — FoP in Mexico was interpreted as only for noncommercial use during that time (2007). But the current interpretation, Commons:Copyright rules by territory/Mexico#Freedom of panorama, is more lenient than what it was, so I think this file should be undeleted. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 14:29, 22 September 2020 (UTC)

  •  Weak oppose @JWilz12345: I don't know how this work would fit under the conditions set by the law. And there is a question of scope, as it is a picture of a Bimbo ad on a Bimbo delivery truck at an odd angle, through a car window or windshield (and as such has very faint reflections of something). I do not see how it can be realistically useful for an educational purpose. --Ìch heiss Nat. Redd mìt mìr.🥨 18:04, 22 September 2020 (UTC)
  •  Support Was the change in FoP laws retroactive? If so, I agree that this should be covered, as the artwork is clearly visible from a public place. I don't speak Spanish, so I cannot say whether the law has some further restrictions, e.g. that the photo must have been taken from a public place, which the inside of a car is not. As for scope: we have a number of Category:Grupo Bimbo delivery trucks, but none with this particular artwork. I think that's sufficiently in scope. --rimshottalk 22:01, 22 September 2020 (UTC)
Interpreting the content of Commons:FOP Mexico: "Reproduction, communication and distribution by means of drawings, paintings, photographs and audiovisual processes of works that are visible from public places (lugares publicos)." [1996-2018 Art.148(VII)]. This can mean that photos of copyrighted works taken from inside the car is acceptable, as long as the car is located in a public space. The only known restrictions, AFAIK and based on my reading of the policy page, are in some establishments and areas, the Metro de la Ciudad de México for example. And for retroactivity, yes the FoP law (2018 ed., according to the policy page) should be retroactive. We have accepted photos of Mexico City's skyscrapers and sculptures in publicly-accessible areas, so this should also be fine. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 06:48, 23 September 2020 (UTC)

Files deleted under Commons:Deletion requests/File:Benghazi Municipality Interior Old.jpg

The following are photos deleted under Commons:Deletion requests/File:Benghazi Municipality Interior Old.jpg due to no FoP in Libya:

The artist mentioned was Marcello Piacentini (d. 1960). But these should be in PD by now, as Commons:Copyright rules by territory/Libya states that the copyright duration for Libyan works are 50 years after the death of the author. So 1960+50=2010+1 (completion of 2010 calendar)=2011. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 04:08, 25 September 2020 (UTC)

 Oppose They are likely copyrighted in US due to URAA (The URAA deate for Libya is 1.1.1996). And no, Libya has not 50pma; they have 25pma and 50 post-publication. So to avoid URAA problem, you need to prove that these are pre-1946 works. Ankry (talk) 05:34, 25 September 2020 (UTC)
@Ankry: then how come the File:Benghazi Central Station.jpg ended up as kept? And this is a building, URAA should not be an issue according to Clindberg at Commons:Undeletion requests/Archive/2020-09#Some photographs by TheCoffee. If the second file doesn't apply (I assume it's a chandelier), then the first showing the interior of the building should be OK. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 06:45, 25 September 2020 (UTC)

Per the recent consensus to accept COM:PDM as a license, I've been going through Category:Public Domain Mark 1.0-related deletion requests/deleted restoring any images that appear to be free of any other issues. I am seeking a second opinion on this batch of images by the Ministry of East Africa Affairs, Commerce & Tourism (MEAACT) of Kenya. They have applied "Public domain" (PDM) to the image on Flickr, but also indicated in the caption "MANDATORY CREDIT: MEAACT PHOTO / STUART PRICE", which contradicts the meaning of "public domain". My question is: should we accept these images? -- King of ♥ 18:02, 29 August 2020 (UTC)

  •  Support undeletion. I see no way that any court would decide that any person or a project has committed a copyright infringement after the author has published the work with a public domain mark, even if they have also demanded attribution. However, the question that should be asked is not whether to undelete or not, but what licence/copyright tags should we apply. I think that in this case we should be safe and assume that it is {{attribution}} rather than any form of public domain attribution, I am unsure if the court would see it this way, but in this particular case it is better to be safe, especially since it does not inflience us actually having the images. ℺ Gone Postal ( ) 06:31, 9 September 2020 (UTC)

@Nat: the enwiki article is vague, saying "Named after prominent Chicago collectors E.B. and Maureen Smith, the museum held over 150 individual pieces displayed in four galleries: Victorian, Prairie, Modern, and Contemporary. The majority of the works originally came from Chicago-area buildings, and a number of prominent artists are represented, including John LaFarge, Adolfas Valeška, and Ed Paschke. The collection contained religious themes, secular work, and some more unusual items, including a stained glass portrait of basketball player Michael Jordan and a window created from glass soda bottles." La Farge died in 1910, Valeška 1994, and Paschke 2004. Although I am aware that the American FoP is strictly for architecture only, I thought these as integral part of the Chicago museum building (as Category:Smith Museum of Stained Glass Windows exists). I also recategorized File:Smith Museum stained glass.jpg to this category. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 02:26, 1 October 2020 (UTC)

No! In my reply to Ahmad252, September 19, I said, <Egil Jonsson, the author of File:1973 Gay Pride.jpg, posted the picture of himself "in the orange ring" on his Facebook page in 2012, then reposted the same picture with context in 2019. Because Jim Chalgren released the photo in the US before 1988 "without an explicit Copyright notice", his work was not an "orphan" and could be used in the public domain for any purpose.>

I was attempting to clarify that Jonsson was the author of the "orange ring" that was added to Chalgren's photo.

Unfortunately I did not notice this nomination, it is the second iteration of the nomination I participated in (Commons:Deletion requests/Files uploaded by Динамо-фан) but for some reason under a different name.

The nomination was closed with an opposite interpretation of exactly the same template as the previous nomination, and this interpretation is not based on any rules.

{{PD-UA-exempt}} clearly states that this work is in the public domain within Ukraine and possibly in other jurisdictions because it is one of the following: (d) (...) symbols and signs of enterprises, institutions and organizations. Argument that that pertains only to non-commercial use is wrong: it is public domain with no additional restrictions (Ukrainian wording means that no copyright restrictions can apply).

The argument that all of those logos are not part of any of the total of six cases is wrong: these are symbols of entreprises / organisations and they fall under (d). Football clubs are entreprises / organisations, and these logos are symbols of respective organisations registered by Ukrainian government.

All these logos are in public domain under provisions of {{PD-UA-exempt}}. Non-copyright restrictions like {{Trademarked}} likely apply but they are not a reason for deletion.

 Comment I have no objection to this DR being undeleted for further discussion and reconsideration. The situation with Ukraine football logos is confusing and contradictory. We have a category at Commons where many such logos have been uploaded using the {{PD-UA-exempt}} template, and a reading of the English translation of Section II-10(d) of the Ukraine Law on Copyright and Related Rights at WikiSource does refer to "...symbols and signs of enterprises, institutions and organizations..." as not copyrighted. On the other hand, Part 6 of Article 16 evidently has a trademark restriction to non-commercial use (I say "apparently" because I haven't found an English translation). Granted, we can just rely on {{Trademark}} but that seems kind of sketchy for hosting these logos at Commons. Many are instead on en-Wikipedia as Fair Use (see en:Category:Ukrainian_football_logos). There's also U.S. law to consider, were these logos created before 1996 URAA and PD in U.S. as well as Ukraine?  JGHowes  talk 18:08, 27 September 2020 (UTC)
@JGHowes: Could you please provide link to the Part 6 of Article 16? In Ukrainian original Article 16 has only three paragraphs, and Part 6 has only 11 paragraphs, so I don't see what you mean — NickK (talk) 22:10, 28 September 2020 (UTC)
URAA applies to works published before March 1989. So all pre-1989 logos are OK, IMO. For newer logos URAA is no-op as US Copyright law applies to them directly. And it is unclear to me why (basing on US Copyright law) post-1989 logos may be free in US, or why may we ignore that they are copyrighted in US. Ankry (talk) 18:25, 27 September 2020 (UTC)
@NickK: Which of the above logos are pre-1989? Ankry (talk) 17:00, 28 September 2020 (UTC)
@Ankry: I am a bit surprised that URAA applies to {{PD-UA-exempt}}. Coats of arms of Ukrainian cities or Ukrainian government awards can in theory be copyrighted in the US as well, but in fact we keep them on Commons. If a country does not consider some sort of works as copyrightable, how can URAA create copyright in this case?
If we do consider URAA, strange things happen. These logos technically became eligible for URAA on 16 August 2001 (Ukraine had a weird provision that public domain works are not subject to Berne Convention, and logos were public domain works). Anyway, the only logo created before 2001 was File:FC Dynamo Kyiv logo (2007-2011).tif (it only had a star added in 2007 which is not copyrightable). However, Dynamo Kyiv played so many international matches that its logo was clearly published in a foreign country, at least in the UK in 1997, thus technically probably becoming URAA-eligible as published in the UK in 1997. However, I would find it extremely strange to apply copyrights this way — NickK (talk) 22:10, 28 September 2020 (UTC)
URAA Does not apply to post-1989 works. US copyright law applies to post-1989 works directly, regardless what the country of origin is due to Berne Convention and regardless of copyright status in any other country. This is how the Berne Convention works. And the requirement that images in Commons have to be free in US is a Commons policy. For post-1989 works URAA date is irrelevant; the date when Ukraine became a party of Berne Convention may be. Some images might be not copyrighted in US due to high ToO there. (BTW, per this table URAA date for Ukraine is 1.1.1996, but this is irrelevant for post-1989 works when there was no formality required in US for copyright protection.)
Same problem exists eg. with modern ID photos which are not copyrighted in some countries (Poland, Switzerland) as below ToO but copyrighted in US, or with simple modern Italian photos which are copyrighted in Italy 20 years since creation but 70pma in US.
PS. If I am wrong in the above, feel free to correct me. Ankry (talk) 23:54, 28 September 2020 (UTC)
PS2. If any admin thinks that we can just ignore the US copyright status here, feel free to handle this case. Ankry (talk) 23:57, 28 September 2020 (UTC)
@Ankry: Well, URAA date for Ukraine is the date when Ukraine became a party of the Berne Convention. Ukraine became a party of the Berne Convention in 1995 with a weird provision that it does not apply to works in public domain (thus including logos), and fully joined on 16 August 2001. Ukraine was not a party to any other copyright agreements before that date.
1989 date would make this provision completely irrelevant as neither Ukraine nor this law existed in 1989.
This is however the first time {{PD-UA-exempt}} and US copyright issue is raised. I wonder why in this case this template is acceptable on Commons at all, as all PD-UA works were clearly created after 1989. Technically, say, File:COA of Kyiv Kurovskyi.svg is also copyrightable in the US, and it is a post-1989 work. We probably need a clarification of the entire template in this case — NickK (talk) 13:41, 1 October 2020 (UTC)
1989 is the date after which US copyright law should be applied directly to newly published (post-1989 published) works. URAA applies to works published before this date and restores (or grants) US copyright protection for some works published before this date. And URAA is completely irrelevant here, IMO. We just need to find the logos copyright status in US law (required per Commons policy: must be free in the country of origin and in US), which is independent on Copyright status in other countries (including Ukraine) for post-1989 published works. Some of them may be below US ToO, which is relatively high. But I see no other arguments that could be used if a Ukrainian club decided to enforce copyright protection for their logos in a US court. Ankry (talk) 16:21, 1 October 2020 (UTC)
@Ankry: So please clarify: what does {{PD-UA-exempt}} mean at all? The entire country of Ukraine did not exist in 1989, thus absolutely no works became public domain in Ukraine according to this law before 1989. If all {{PD-UA-exempt}} works are still copyrighted in the US, how this template can be used at all? With such a strict definition, perhaps this template should be completely deleted? I don't think this would be consensual, but your comments imply that {{PD-UA-exempt}} is useless as copyright is still enforceable in US courts and all post-1989 are still copyrighted — NickK (talk) 22:09, 1 October 2020 (UTC)
It means that the work is PD in Ukraine. But we need also a template describing the US copyright status. Like {{PD-old}} should be associated in most cases with {{PD-US expired}}, {{PD-US no notice}}, {{PD-1996}} or something similar.

  • The question put forward was when were the logos created?. As Ankry stated, post-1989 works would be copyrighted under U.S. copyright law. URAA would not apply as URAA restores the work's U.S. copyright -- a copyright would not need restoration if it is extant and in force. --Ìch heiss Nat. Redd mìt mìr.🥨 13:59, 30 September 2020 (UTC)

Deleted in Commons:Deletion requests/File:N-9020-019.jpg with the argument that it was small file (1,624 × 1,116 pixels and 148 KB in size is not a small file, in particular at the time of upload, 7 January 2011, almost ten years ago. Previously kept and the subject of this photo was the same subject of other images uploaded by this user. Also the claim of lack of exif is irrelavant, as there was no proof presented of possible copyright violation. Tm (talk) 16:53, 27 September 2020 (UTC)

I'd like to request undeletion of this logo picture.

For context, I am a student organizer as part of this not-for-profit organization (Techyon) which organizes/hosts Canada's biggest hackathon each year. hackthenorth.com

When I originally submitted this, I did not include that it is copyrighted by {{Cc-by-sa-4.0}}. The original artist(s) also belong to the same organization as myself and all works are copyrighted under the same license. The logo also appears on our 2019 website, which has been open-sourced on GitHub: https://github.com/hackthenorth/hackthenorth.com

Apologies if there's something I missed as part of this undeletion request as I am new to Wikipedia - I'm hoping to get this logo as part of Commons to be later used as a part of a Wikipedia article. Thanks!

File:Company sign.png

I am requesting the undeletion of this file as I have stake in the company, the picture is not copyright, and I state my relationship with the content in my own user page. ZanderGabriel (talk) 14:21, 28 September 2020 (UTC)

@ZanderGabriel: If you are authorised to license the logo, we need evidence for this. If the logo is not copyrighted, we need a legal reason why it is so. Note: both legal states together are impossible (if it is copyrighted by you, as declared at uploaded, it cannot not copyrighted).
If a public evidence of any above cannot be provided, COM:OTRS is the right way. Ankry (talk) 16:44, 28 September 2020 (UTC)

---- {{not done}}: per Ankry. --Ìch heiss Nat. Redd mìt mìr.🥨 16:39, 29 September 2020 (UTC)

@Ankry: how do I prove its not copyright? I have the owner of the company telling me it's not. What do I have to do show you?

ZanderGabriel (talk) 19:05, 30 September 2020 (UTC)

@ZanderGabriel: eg. Provide an evidence that copyright has expired (70 years after author's death), or provide an evidence of a court decision from the same country that this or very similar image is not copyrighted, or provide an appropriate exception in local copyright law and an evidence that appropriate conditions are met (unfortunately this logo is not a legal act and unlikely to be a work of US governement employee made as their duty). Copyright applies to any creative work unless there is an appropriate exception and it is independent on creator's will. Note also, that there is no evidence that "our company" is a notable company, so the logo may be out of COM:SCOPE. And note, that responding here is expected to be during the next 24 hours, not later. Ankry (talk) 19:25, 30 September 2020 (UTC)
@Ankry: The image was never under copyright. I can't show proof that it is no longer copyright if it never was. there was no court decision. Someone bought the company and has ownership rights over the content. I have the owner of the company, which the logo is of, telling me this. You can't assume it is copyright without evidence. What do I need to get from the owner of the company showing, not only, that I am permitted to upload the image but that it's not copyright?

File:Coat of arms Berane.jpg

Coat of arms of Berane is published on web site of Berane Municipality www.berane.me. It os official page of local public administration, and not commercial entity. Seems that web site does not have specific copyrights rules, and coat of arms is propoerty of municipality. As coat of arms per se is not commercial sign, or could be monetized, there is no other way to publish coat of arms, as other are also published without copyrightn Brodonacelnik (talk) 11:12, 5 October 2020 (UTC) 5.10.2020.

@Brodonacelnik: The municipality claims ("Општина Беране © 2020") that the content of the mentioned site is copyrighted.

Undeletion request will not go through without a comment. Image was deleted because this rule <https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Project_scope#in_use> was ignored by Valeria Domínguez Arbil44 (talk) 11:41, 6 October 2020 (UTC)

 Comment Valeria Dominguez it's not able to delete a file, and file was already deleted when Valeria Dominguez told you to request the undeletion here, so... --Ganímedes (talk) 12:42, 6 October 2020 (UTC)
Ganímedes, yes, Arbil44 is mistaken about who deleted the image. However, it was deleted due to lack of permission, which has now been provided to OTRS, and the response from OTRS was to request undeletion here. Is there any remaining reason to keep it deleted? Cordless Larry (talk) 12:50, 6 October 2020 (UTC)
It's Template:OTRS ticket, Nat. Cordless Larry (talk) 16:52, 6 October 2020 (UTC)
Please read DR again: file was never deleted because of lack of permission. --Ganímedes (talk) 17:21, 6 October 2020 (UTC)
The nomination was "Obviously not a selfie, if this is uploader, it's not own work". If that's not lack of permission, what is it? Cordless Larry (talk) 17:26, 6 October 2020 (UTC)
The nomination by Ellin Beltz was indeed for permission/copyright concerns alone ("Obviously not a selfie, if this is uploader, it's not own work"); Gbawden gave the additional reason "Commons is not a photo album" when deleting. But as a small number of personal images for user pages is allowed, and there's a permission now, I think we could restore that image. What do you think, Ellin and Gbawden? Gestumblindi (talk) 17:49, 6 October 2020 (UTC)
It was in use on Arbil44's user page in English Wikipedia (CommonsDelinker removed it after deletion); IMO acceptable per "The uploading of small numbers of images (e.g. of yourself) for use on a personal user page of Commons or another project is allowed as long as that user is or was an active participant on that project". I can't comment on the validity (or lack thereof) of the OTRS permission, as I'm not an OTRS agent. Gestumblindi (talk) 18:22, 6 October 2020 (UTC)
  • @Gestumblindi: I don't disagree with the file's scope status (and my previous statement does incline to agree that it was in scope). My issue is with the permission sent to OTRS, which is insufficient (and I am stating this as someone who is an OTRS agent). --Ìch heiss Nat. Redd mìt mìr.🥨 18:32, 6 October 2020 (UTC)
  • If OTRS is insufficient, I cannot support restoration. This was one of a group of private images, by a variety of photographers, all uploaded by one user who felt it was OK to claim "own work" when many of them - this included - were obviously not own work. As for scope of having a large private photo album hosted on Commons, I agree that Commons is not a private photo album, but I also agree that a certain number of images of the uploader may be kept because everyone has to have their faces all over the internet for reasons of vanity and because "everyone else does it". As you know, Commons permits that. However, without actual permission on the image, scope is irrelevant. Please ping me should anything change. Ellin Beltz (talk) 19:24, 6 October 2020 (UTC)
Thanks, all. I've provided Arbil44 with instructions on how the copyright holder can provide permission via OTRS directly, and hope this works. Cordless Larry (talk) 19:58, 6 October 2020 (UTC)

  •  Oppose - This is in no way an adequate ticket. 1) The ticket, at best, would apply to the newsprint, not to the prominent image which is explicitly credited separately (there is no permission from the photographer) and 2) permission needs to come from a principle, executive, director ,etc. (however stylized at this organisation). Merely being an employee of an organization does not allow one to license its intellectual property; the multiple senders do not identify holding such authority and do not communicate in a manner suggesting the same.

OTRS code #2020080410007577 and/or #2020090110004207. A second ticket was sent 7th october, so it should be confirmed soon.--TaronjaSatsuma (talk) 18:47, 9 October 2020 (UTC)


{{Not done}} @TaronjaSatsuma: I feel that there is a serious misunderstanding here. The customer seems to be just who recorded the Dragonball episode, but not the copyright holder. Ask them please if they hold the rights of Dragonball for Spain, but I feel that they do not hold anything. The most probable is that the rights were bought by the Catalan network/distributor at the time. If they hold the rights, we are still missing the second authorisation.
I think that all the file linked to ticket:2020090110004207 should be deleted for the same reason. --Ruthven (msg) 20:19, 9 October 2020 (UTC)

@TaronjaSatsuma: They own copyright of their performance. But the MP3 is a DW of the text been spoken, which has a separate author and copyright. Your interpretation would suggest that anybody can record their reading of an arbitrary (copyrighted) book and sell the recording as their own audioook without the book author permission. This is not true. Ankry (talk) 14:50, 10 October 2020 (UTC)
Reopening; this may need to be discussed. @Ruthven: Please, keep the standard 24h delay before closure. This time is intended for discussion. Ankry (talk) 14:42, 10 October 2020 (UTC)
@Ankry: I'm already discussing with Ruthven in order to have every permission clear. The text in the MP3 is a minimal portion of the original text, intended to be non-eligible for copyright. An audiobooks lasts for hours, those files for seconds.--TaronjaSatsuma (talk) 18:54, 10 October 2020 (UTC)

 Not done: @Ankry: We're exchanging over email on OTRS permission. Once we'll end the checks of the various authorisations, TaronjaSatsuma can ask an undeletion on those files to me directly. That's why we can close the request. Cheers. Ruthven (msg) 17:25, 11 October 2020 (UTC)

The file File:DAMETO.jpg was created by me through a PAINT suported SW and based on the indications provided by the reference quoted on the article marquesado de Bellpuig that states as follows (in spanish)

Armas de Dameto: escudo partido perpendicularmente: el costado derecho de plata, y el izquierdo encarnado.

  • apellido=Cervantes Saavedra | nombre=Miguel de | título=Don Quijote de la Mancha | editorial=Editorial Castalia, S.A. | editor=Sevilla Arroyo, Florencio | ubicación=Madrid | año=1999 | isbn=9788470398131 | páginas=729-741

For all the above I request the UNELATION of the file File:DAMETO.jpg

--7cinco11 (talk) 07:37, 10 October 2020 (UTC)

 Question @7cinco11: How did you create the image? (What tachnique / software did you use to create it?) Ankry (talk) 13:22, 10 October 2020 (UTC)
  • @Ankry: I used PAINT which is a standard software available both on IOS and Windows. The process I followed was farily straight forward as well by breaking in half a shield and colouring one side in red. Very easy. Then I added the cross of Santiago since the first title holder of the marquesado de Bellpuig, Albertin Dameto y Cotoner, was a knight of Santiago. I trust this clarifies further. Best, --7cinco11 (talk) 16:23, 10 October 2020 (UTC)
    • This image does not look like an image made in Paint from scratch (IMO it looks like a scanned low-quality image, but another opinion is welcome here). I also think, that if this CoA is really needed, then it is better to make another, higher quality image (maybe even a SVG one) instead of undeleting this one. But I do non oppose undeletion; I am  Neutral about it. Ankry (talk) 16:46, 10 October 2020 (UTC)

Dear Editors,

I'm Veronika Kámán, one of the editors of the periodical Acta Pintériana. I failed to upload the logo of the periodical on Wikimedia Commons, even though we own the copyright of the logo - now I'm a bit clueless what to do. The logo was created for the periodical by András Wolsky, a Hungarian fine artist (https://www.wolsky.hu/). We'd be happy to share this logo on Wikimedia - I'd be grateful for any help.

Kind regards, Veronika Kámán (Kamanvera on Wikipedia)

--Kamanvera (talk) 17:57, 11 October 2020 (UTC)

@Kamanvera: No such file. Maybe, you mean File:Acta Pintériana logo.png?
Unfortunately, we cannot verify your declarations on-wiki. If a free license evidence cannot be provided basing on public records, the COM:OTRS is the right procedure. Ankry (talk) 18:12, 11 October 2020 (UTC)
@Ankry: Yep, that's it, bad citation, File:Acta Pintériana logo.png was what I meant. Meanwhile I found out that "Non-free content must be a work which has been published or publicly displayed outside Wikipedia by (or with permission from) the copyright holder, or a derivative of such a work created by a Wikipedia editor." In my view it's true for us as it's publicly displayed also on the website of Acta Pintériana. Do I got it right?--Kamanvera (talk) 19:30, 11 October 2020 (UTC)
@Kamanvera: Non-free content cannot be hosted in Wikimedia Commons. It may be uploaded locally to Wikipedia, if local Wikipedia policy accepts Fair Use content. Some Wikipedias(like English one) accept this policy, some do not. Ankry (talk) 19:57, 11 October 2020 (UTC)

All images under Category:Kyrgyz FOP cases

Commons:FOP Kyrgyzstan says the Central Asian nation, despite a former constituent republic of USSR, has now freedom of panorama (but for some reason FOP maps still mark it as "red"). After careful scrutiny of the statements at FOP Kyrgyzstan, I can assume it falls under "light green" group of countries. For this reason I am requesting the undeletion of all deleted images under Category:Kyrgyz FOP cases:

Dear editors,

the above mentioned photo was taken with my smartphone on my request by an colleague during my presentation at a digital radio event in Istanbul in 2014; I was there on behalf of the European Broadcasting Union to lobby for digital radio. The rights of this pic are all mine. Please undelete the file. Thank you.

  • @Kaizen-ikigai: Ownership or possession of a photo, proprietorship of the equipment used to take the photo, or being the subject of the photo does not equate holding the copyright. The copyright holder is the photographer (i.e. the person who took the photo), rather that the subject (the person who appears in the photo) or the person possessing the photo, unless transferred by operation of law (e.g. inheritance, etc.) or by contract (written and signed by the copyright holder, and explicitly transfers the copyright).

Please restore the following pages:

Reason: A letter from the copyright owner was sent today at 17:14 UTC +2 to permissions-hu@wikimedia.org upon the copyright permission. I have the copy of the letter, too. If I am not mistaken today wasn't the last day for the permission to be sent (today was the 6th day), so the file was deleted too early. Even more, the banner "the file will be deleted soon" and the deletion of the file happened in the same minute, I wasn't even given the time to "ask questions about Commons policies at the Commons:Help desk" as mentioned in the banner. At about 18:00 I was going to put out the OTRS pending template and got such an unpleasant surprise.
I kindly ask to undo the deletion of the file. Wikicim (talk) 17:40, 12 October 2020 (UTC)

 Oppose This is ticket:2020101210010767 and we need to wait for a Hungarian OTRS agent to verify it. My first impression is that this is not a valid permission, however. Ankry (talk) 19:26, 12 October 2020 (UTC)
@Ankry: Thank you for your answer! Can anybody say why was the file deleted before the seven days had expired? Wikicim (talk) 21:13, 12 October 2020 (UTC)
Because the uploader did not even try to provide the missing information about licensing even though they knew that it is missing. We cannot host images without a license. Ankry (talk) 22:35, 13 October 2020 (UTC)
@Ankry: As to me, it is not fair to put out the OTRS pending template before the letter from the copyright owner is sent. I was waiting for the copyright owner to send the letter. It was the seven days banner what had misinformated the copyright owner. When the letter was sent at last, I tried to open the file page almost immediately, but it was deleted two hours before, without any respect to the 7 days "agreement". Nobody awaits that Commons should "host images without a license" after those 7 days had expired. But why was the file deleted before the day which was officially pointed out as deadline?? The problem message stated that the deadine was 7 days after October 7. That should have been today, October 14. And the file was deleted on October 12. Wikicim (talk) 09:01, 14 October 2020 (UTC)

Hi,

This is the only known image of Jayce Lewis first show. The Photographer (Kapil Rajwani) took this image and granted me all rights to it in 2010. The image and article it was contained within have long been removed.

I believe this is of great importance for historic and important information of the artist.

Many thanks

  • Signing your posts is required on talk pages and it is a Commons policy to sign your posts on deletion requests, undeletion requests, and noticeboards. To do so, simply add four tildes (~~~~) at the end of your comments. Your user name or IP address (if you are not logged in) and a timestamp will then automatically be added when you save your comment. Signing your comments helps people to find out who said something and provides them with a link to your user/talk page (for further discussion). Thank you.
  •  Oppose @STNMGill: (1) The work was published elsewhere first with no evidence of a free licence, (2) admitted not own work as claimed at time of upload, (3) even if Jon Dron provided you the photo, the question of who is the photographer remains, as he is the subject of the photo. If it is a self-portrait then he is the copyright holder. If it is not, and someone else took the photo then he is not the copyright holder, unless the copyright was transferred in writing and signed. In any case, for the possibility of undeletion, the copyright holder must send permission and a specific release under a acceptable free licence using OTRS. Thank you for your understanding. --Ìch heiss Nat. Redd mìt mìr.🥨 02:05, 15 October 2020 (UTC)

The file was initially uploaded by me to wikimedia, with all liecences. Late on it was copied on many other pages in the internet. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mitic (talk • contribs) 22:55, 12 October 2020‎ (UTC)

I am the photographer and the editor of this image back in 1987. I still have the original. I edited the background to be used in wikimedia and cropped other people who were on the image. --Mitic (talk) 08:28, 13 October 2020 (UTC)

  •  Oppose - Notwithstanding this was an out-of-process recreation of File:Udalov Yuri 1987.jpg, a genuine photographer would be expected to have initially uploaded, or to offer now, a full version of the image (i.e., uncropped) and/or, more importantly, without the amateurishly photoshopped and thus marred background. One notes the uploader also claimed themselves to be the author of an image of this person dated 1943, File:Udalov Yuri 1943.jpg. With the charitable assumption they were only 18 at the time (i.e., born 1925), that would make them 95 now (2020-1925). I find that entirely implausible, especially given the other demonstrably false authorship claims in their deleted contribs (e.g., File:Berberova.JPG). Uploader, at best, appears to have a profound misunderstanding of COM:DWs. This is a textbook book COM:RPP issue. Эlcobbola talk 14:50, 13 October 2020 (UTC)

Dear Elcobbola File:Udalov Yuri 1943.jpg I made a photo picture of the original photo of Yuri Udalov at local exhibition on WWII veterans. Thus I claimed it was my picture. If needed I can present you the original picture of File:Udalov Yuri 1987.jpg but there're other people who are still alive and who probably don't want to be published in the internet without their concent. Please, help me to restore the truth--Mitic (talk) 10:21, 14 October 2020 (UTC)

If a concern in my previous comments was not clear, I'll try again: I find your credibility with regard to authorship claims to be utterly tarnished. Frankly, I would not believe even a full version of this image to be anything other than a scan of someone else's photograph. In additional to the blatantly false authorship claims I previously noted, looking in only your undeleted 2010 uploads, there are at least four different camera types (DSC-W120, Canon EOS 350D DIGITAL, E3200, Canon PowerShot A550). This is generally a red flag. Taking, again, only your undeleted images, the source/authorship claims for File:Apraksin Vasily Ivanovich 1788-1822.jpg, File:Luis-Philipp Marquis de Vaudreuil.JPG, and File:N-s-volkonskij.jpg are examples visible to all of aforementioned profound misunderstanding of COM:DWs. This is currently a significant COM:PRP issue and there is nothing to accomplish at UDR. Nothing short of a substantial period demonstrating a robust and unerring a) understanding of derivative works and b) truthfulness in authorship claims would, perhaps, restore that credibility.

I was trying to clarify what license I could share this image and by what means I have the copyright exclusively for it, and I didn't see an email that was sent to me a few weeks ago that got lost in the shuffle.

I was given full rights to share this image under the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 3.0 Unported license by Andrew Cordes, the photographer at the Gittings photo studio in Houston, TX where I went to get the photo taken for exactly this type of use. I have an email from Andrew stating that I have said permission.

I would just like to get the image un-deleted and reinstated as the profile picture for the article Francisco A. Lorenzo.

Different from UK (or other commonwealth that follows British copyright), {{FOP-Australia}} said that it includes the "artistic works", not just "works of artistic craftsmanship" --116.48.240.243 15:08, 16 October 2020 (UTC)

Few doubts here:
  • (1) seems to be a symbol rather than painting or another artistic work
  • (3) the tram is not permanently placed in public, IMO
  • (5) & (7) contains text that I do not think the FoP exception applies to
  • I doubt whether the painting (6) and the poster (12) are permanently exposed; are they still there?
I see no issues about the other files, {{S}} undeletion of them. Ankry (talk) 08:11, 17 October 2020 (UTC)
I don't think Australia has significantly different FoP rules than the UK. I think that section was changed by someone under a misunderstanding, who agreed that the changes needed to at least be partially rolled back, but never were. Carl Lindberg (talk) 05:10, 18 October 2020 (UTC)
Fixed in Commons:Copyright rules by territory/Australia. Thanks, Carl for pointing this out. There is indeed the same wording in Australian copyright law. Ankry (talk) 08:32, 18 October 2020 (UTC)
 Info @Clindberg and Ankry: I have found the related section of the Australian copyright rules, which stated that "The copyright in an artistic work is not infringed by the publication of a painting, drawing, engraving, photograph or cinematograph film". COM:FOP Australia was amended by User:Chris.sherlock in November 2019. I believed it is in good faith, as he has discussed it on the talk page.--A1Cafel (talk) 09:00, 18 October 2020 (UTC)
@A1Cafel: This not the whole sentence. Read, please, the second part ("if, by virtue of section 65, section 66 or section 67, the making of that painting, drawing, engraving, photograph or film did not constitute an infringement of the copyright") defining to which artistic works the section applies. More precisely, this section states that if you are allowed to make a photo, then you can also publish it. Ankry (talk) 11:41, 18 October 2020 (UTC)
@A1Cafel: Section 68 is only valid by virtue of the earlier sections, which restricts to the usual sculpture, work of artistic craftsmanship, etc. Sections 65, 66, and 67 say that copyright in those types is not infringed by the *making* of a derivative work when the underlying is permanently in a public place, and section 68 (the one you quoted) simply says that copyright is additionally not infringed when *publishing* such derivative works. They use "artistic works" as a catch-all since it's an additional rule for all three previous sections, but it's limited to the works where the *making* of the derivative work is also OK by virtue of one of the three previous sections.
Chris.sherlock's argument was that "works of artistic craftsmanship" was the same thing as all "artistic works", and he eventually agreed (in the discussion which followed his edits) that was not the case, but never came back to edit it. He was still arguing that murals counted as "works of artistic craftsmanship". The edits were in good faith certainly, but I believe were mistaken, and he did later agree that the edits should be rolled back to an extent, but never did. I believe Australia's law is now *exactly* the same as the UK, really. There had been a confusion about works which qualified both as paintings and works of artistic craftsmanship -- the UK allows them under the FoP clause, and Australia now does too, though the pre-2004 wording of Australia's law might not have. Australia's FoP section should be the same as the UK's. I put a lengthy post on the talk page there, but there was no further discussion at that point. I meant to change the edits back, but forgot about it. Carl Lindberg (talk) 13:11, 18 October 2020 (UTC)

It is my own work. I gave it for presentation / introduction of Yahyalı Village. But used for other purpose. In this site, the photo cropped (for backround photo, see below: "Edited version in the Web"). I have the uncropped (original) photo. Comparison: Example (bottom of the photo, houses)

There was no link to a freely licensed source site there. It is up to the uploader to provide evidence for copyright status.

I see no such evidence and it is up to the requester to provide it. The uploader was Priad123456789.

Hello, I am requesting an undeletion of the photo of Chuck Mead entitled Chuck Mead 2017.jpeg

I have attached written permission from the photographer to use. Please let me know if you need any further info.

Comment from non-admin: @Moremarkanle: . I think there are two problems: 1) this should be attached on the electronic form through email (Commons:OTRS), and 2) that permission is still insufficient. It doesn't indicate free commercial use. Under Commons:Licensing, all media files in Commons must be freely usable as much as possible, including non-personal and commercial reuses and/or publications by anyone off-wiki. But since he permits use on Wikipedia, it should be reuploaded there (locally on English Wikipedia) and use w:Template:Do not move to Commons, under the reason that the copyright holder has allowed use on Wikipedia, but did not provide for permission for commercial reuses (a number 1 condition for files to be kept here on Commons). JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 17:49, 19 October 2020 (UTC)
  •  Oppose - This is effectively forwarded permission, which we cannot accept. Joshua Black Wilkins will need to contact us directly using the email indicated here (i.e., one that is verifiable) through the process at COM:OTRS. That permission, further, must identify an explicit license and be applicable to everyone, not merely "anyone related, in business with, associated with and hired by [Chuck Mead]." En.wiki also has this requirement ("Note that images that are licensed for use only on Wikipedia [...] are unsuitable." (w:WP:IUP)), so the bizarre suggestion this be uploaded there instead should be disregarded. Эlcobbola talk 18:05, 19 October 2020 (UTC)

  • @Beepbeep210: How did you verify that the Flickr account in question is officially linked to UTSA? As has been stated in the deletion discussion, this is somewhat doubtful. In such cases we usually need a verification by email from the involved organisation. De728631 (talk) 23:26, 19 October 2020 (UTC)
  •  Oppose - Requestor would have us believe that this Flickr account is the official account of The University of Texas at San Antonio despite: a) being created August 2020; b) having only 11 photos; c) having 0 Followers; d) following 0 others; e) blatantly misrepresenting the photos of others to be their own; and, my favourite, misspelling their own name "Uinveristy of Texas at San Antonio" (!!!). This is transparent nonsense. Эlcobbola talk 16:15, 20 October 2020 (UTC)
  • @De728631: I verified this by sending the university a message via e-mail. Those requesting to delete these photos never bothered to verify for themselves yet still linked the university communications website. Their email is listed near the bottom of their website: https://www.utsa.edu/ucm/ Beepbeep210 (talk)
  • @Elcobbola: Also to note, spelling a word wrong is not "proof" that a profile is illegitimate. Humans make mistakes. Beepbeep210 (talk)
    • Per our rules, those requesting to delete these photos were not required to prove that the Flickr profile is actually legitimate. Instead, as the uploader it would have been your task to provide verifiable evidence from the beginning, and in such cases we do not accept personal email contact. To undelete the images, a UTSA representative needs to send a verification email using the process at COM:OTRS. De728631 (talk) 20:14, 20 October 2020 (UTC)
    • Humans do a great many things. Humans also lie, and lies are often betrayed by mistakes and inconsistencies. That notwithstanding, I've not called anything "proof"; I've given a number of red flags that, in aggregate, are significant doubt. Is there a particular reason you've not addressed any of the other concerns, or the optics of their combination in the context of your duty to provide appropriate evidence? Is there a reason you've not had the person at UTSA with whom you've purportedly spoken contact us directly? Эlcobbola talk 20:33, 20 October 2020 (UTC)

  •  Oppose - COM:EVID requires "In all cases the uploader must provide appropriate evidence to demonstrate either that the file is in the public domain." (underline added) For this image: a) you claimed the source to be "Maralou Gray," an 89-year-old actress who is the subject of the image (copyright is generally held by the author, photographer, or, in this case, the studio--not the mere subject); b) you gave the author as "unknown," (i.e., unknown to you personally, not necessarily to the world); c) you gave only the creation date (copyright term is generally based on date of author death or publication, not mere creation); and d) you applied a bogus cc-by-sa-3.0 license, which is not PD.

However, at Commons all uploads must be free to use as declared by the copyright holder and not with a fair use rationale.

This file was deleted with explanation: non-free image of living person, fails WP:NFCC#1

I believe that this in not the case. WP:NFCC#1 states that a non-free image can be used if:

1) Non-free content is used only where no free equivalent is available, or could be created, that would serve the same encyclopedic purpose.

Which is indeed the case. Therefore I understand that the image does not fail that condition, but meets the condition. If somehow I am miss-understanding the above regulation, can I please request for a clarification and temporary undeletion to properly discuss. Thank you.

On the other hand, although the shape of an industrial product may be aesthetically satisfying and valuable, the Committee's intention is not to offer it copyright protection under the bill. Unless the shape of an automobile, airplane, ladies' dress, food processor, television set, or any other industrial product contains some element that, physically or conceptually, can be identified as separable from the utilitarian aspects of that article, the design would not be copyrighted under the bill."

I would like to point out that the content is generated by the creator (knowkiri), its not accidentally created and does not contain any gibberish. its original work of author the content creator took pain to upload the original content to wikimedia commons thinking that its a fair platform. the contributors opinion was that wikimedia common values the contributors original work even though that may not go well with reviewers understanding and feelings. Lots of abstract works of art look like gibberish to the people who are not accustomed to art, but they still have their usefulness.

from the comments of [[User:elcobbola|  the indignation and impatience towards taking time to review somebody's work and a kind of causal attitude towards handling somebody's original creation. Atleast [[User_talk:Nat| has took some time to explain his stand.  

no matter wether  you delete or keep the work on wikimedia common siting some reason, the original work posted in the public domain come under copyrights act and the right on the work belongs to the creator.

I now have discovered the copyright holder (Gail Clarke hall, a niece of Rosa Hobhouse, the subject of the photograph I wish to include in the Wikipedia page about Rosa Hobhouse). I have been in touch with Gail Clarke Hall and, as the copyright holder, she is happy to give permission for its use, and to send for me to upload on Wikipedia Commons, the signed and dated template email that I found on Wikipedia Commons for use when gaining Copyright Permission.

I thus request undeletion of this file.

Please advise me if there are any other steps I should take in order to be able to include this image.

This file, so I understand, was deleted from my newly created wikipedia page about Rosa Waugh Hobhouse because I had not identified the copyright holder and obtained permission for its use.

I now have discovered the copyright holder (Gail Clarke hall, a niece of Rosa Hobhouse, the subject of the photograph I wish to include in the Wikipedia page about Rosa Hobhouse). I have been in touch with Gail Clarke Hall and, as the copyright holder, she is happy to give permission for its use, and to send for me to upload on Wikipedia Commons, the signed and dated template email that I found on Wikipedia Commons for use when gaining Copyright Permission.

I thus request undeletion of this file.

Please advise me if there are any other steps I should take in order to be able to include this image.

Thank you Alison Thomas

@AlisonThomas: As copyright generally belongs to the photographer, we need either a permission from the photographer's heirs (if the photographer died less than 70 years ago, or an evidence that copyright belongs to somebody else together with their free license permission. Or an evidence that copyright expired (for anonymous photos - 95 years after publication - per US copyright law). Permission to use does not fit Wikimedia Commons licensing requiremets. Maybe, the photo fulfils English Wikipedia Fair Use policy, but then it can be uploaded to English Wikipedia only, not here. Ankry (talk) 14:15, 23 October 2020 (UTC)

Hello. I work as Annette Lind's (member of the Danish Parliament for Socialdemokratiet) intern and are trying to add a picture of her. Even though we own the copyrights for the uploaded picture it still gets deleted - which is why I'm trying to revoke this decision.

The portrait in question is the same as the one she has uploaded to Altinget.dk - https://www.altinget.dk/kandidater/ft19/159-annette-lind and that seems to be the reason why it was deleted. But I can assure you that she owns all the rights to the picture.

The administrator made a severe mistake. Kacper Tekieli has contacted Polish Wikipedia, providing sources to help us improve the article about him. We suggested him to send his photo in order to illustrate the article, which he did. All of that is archived in relevant discussions on Polish Wikipedia.

Now the administrator deletes the file without any prior warning and without consideration, only because he found the same (or similar?) photo somewhere on the web. Such situations damage the professional image of Wikipedia, showing that we don't care at all about people who put their time and effort into cooperation with us.

Because the article about Kacper Tekieli is exhibited on the Main Page of Polish Wikipedia TODAY, the case is EXTREMELY URGENT and the file has to be restored RIGHT NOW. Thank you in advance! Marcowy Człowiek (talk) 08:42, 27 October 2020 (UTC)

I'm uploading portraits of Nebraksa politicans and I came across this one and see as it's being deleted due to copy rights violation/lack of licensing. I also see that the person didn't license it as they tried to upload it before I did. I'm requesting for this to be undeleted so I can reupload it with the proper license under (Creative Commons CC0 1.0 Universal Public Domain Dedication) as it's considered public domain.

-See Nebraska Photo credits- Photo credits

Please credit the "Nebraska Unicameral Information Office" if you utilize these photos. The Legislature is not responsible for the manner in which these photographs are used by the public.[1] — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dillon251992 (talk • contribs) 19:19, 27 October 2020‎ (UTC)

  •  Oppose - COM:L requires an explicit license. There no reference of CC0 at the link provided, and indeed no reference to any license whatsoever or "public domain" status. The only statement related to copyright is "Copyright © Nebraska Legislature, all rights reserved." (!!!) Presumably requestor is relying on the statement "In order to provide high-quality photographs of the State Capitol and its surroundings for members of the public and the press" which is, of course, a conflation of public in the sense of "available to the public/non-confidential" with public domain in the sense of "lacking copyright protection"--two entirely different notions. See also Gratis versus libre. Эlcobbola talk 19:59, 27 October 2020 (UTC)
I just realized it was all rights reserved for their website, thank you for pointing that out. What's so conflicting is that the photocredits message says give credit to "Nebraska Unicameral Infomration Office". Is it either public domain or it isn't? Because usually some US states have public domain.Dillon251992 (talk) 21:37, 27 October 2020 (UTC)
I don't know how assertion of a credit preference has any relationship to a declaration of public domain. California, Florida, and Massachusetts have laws that, generally, place government works into the public domain; Nebraska does not. 3 ÷ 50 = 6 percent; I wouldn't characterise that as "usually." Эlcobbola talk 21:44, 27 October 2020 (UTC)

 Not done: While the works of the federal government and some state governments are in public domain, the works of the vast majority of states are not -- this includes Nebraska. Furthermore, there may be cases in which the executive branch of a state government places its works into the public domain, but the legislative branch assert copyright over some of its works (this is most notable when it comes to photographic works or other media files). --Ìch heiss Nat. Redd mìt mìr.🥨 02:28, 28 October 2020 (UTC)

File was deleted because there's no FOP in Kyrgyzstan back then (c. 2009). Commons:Deletion requests/File:Bishkek–Lenin.jpg. Now, per COM:FOP Kyrgyzstan there is now FOP in this Central Asian nation, perhaps the first of the Asian Union Soviet "-stan" nations to have Commons-applicable FOP (I have also created a new template, {{FoP-Kyrgyzstan}}, for this).

Carl Lindberg (talk) 14:03, 28 October 2020 (UTC)
As per the Commons:FOP Kyrgyzstan, it is the Law No. 6 as of 2017, and the relevant section cited is Article 21 of the 2017 law. To quote that passage in the wording of the copyright rules page: "The law allows free use of works permanently located in public places by reproduction, broadcasting or communication to the public by cable for commercial purposes without the author's consent and without payment of royalties including works of art, photography and architecture."

Some photos from Mozambique colonial-era landmarks

Files were deleted because "no FoP in Mozambique". But Commons:FOP Mozambique has one exception: structural artworks created / published before 1975 (that is, the Portuguese colonial era) cover the old colonial-era copyright rules that allow FoP.

JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 17:42, 19 October 2020 (UTC)

 Comment Unless I misread the exception in Commons:FOP Mozambique, the photo itself needs to be made before 1975 for this exception to be applied. "The 2001 copyright law of Mozambique appears to be retroactive." And so, in order to apply this exception, the photo to be published here must originate from the Portuguese colony of Mozambique, and not from Mozambique as an independent state. Any comment? I do not think that any of the above photos is so old. Ankry (talk) 06:26, 20 October 2020 (UTC)

Most likely a photo of a station building in LRT-2, deleted because of no FoP in the Philippines. For the record, this is my 2nd undeletion attempt (the first was unsuccessful). However, through a new input at Commons:Deletion requests/Files in Category:United Nations station by our fellow Pinoy Wikipedian Higad Rail Fan (who happened to have participated the October 15, 2020 webinar of IPOPHL on copyrights), there is now basis for the undeletion of this image file. Though FoP is still one of the proposals being discussed as of now for the possible amendments of the current copyright law of the Philippines (and a moderator from IPOPHL confirmed that photos of architecture in the Philippines are recognized as derivative works of the architecture), there is also an input from IPOPHL that "in general common design elements cannot be copyrightable." LRT station designs, whose designer was Francisco Mañosa (d. 2019), are based on the traditional bahay-kubo design. I also assume that all LRT-2 stations are also based on this design, and in my personal experience there are similarities in the designs of LRT-1 and LRT-2 stations.

@Elcobbola: I understand your second reason, but what do you mean by your first reason? JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 03:28, 25 October 2020 (UTC)
@Elcobbola: can the opinion of an IPOPHL moderator on originality (as explained by Higad Rail Fan at Commons:Deletion requests/Files in Category:United Nations station) suffice? Another deletion request was recently commenced at Commons:Deletion requests/Files in Category:Betty Go-Belmonte station, with the nominator claiming having visited this UNDEL. In my opinion the IPOPHL moderator's opinion on originality is sufficient for this to be undeleted, despite the statement from IPOPHL that it is currently discussing the freedom of panorama as one of the possible amendments to the copyright law of the Philippines. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 04:11, 29 October 2020 (UTC)
The comments in that DR are unsupported nonsense, and generally incoherent at that. The "evidence" includes "very learned treatises of a Top Law Firm like Sycip Salazar [...] verbal replies to my queries by IPO lawyers and [...] tons of Legal Discussions on the Matter." If you buy that, and think nothing of what the double !voting betrays about the genuineness of their opinion, I have a bridge to sell you. If you understand the second point ("I understand your second reason"), there is nothing productive to be accomplished with continued discussion of a low quality, banal and redundant image.

  •  Oppose - Where does one start? 1) No rationale for restoration has been given; 2) This is a sock recreation of a deleted image; 3) You acknowledge this photo was given to you, so your self authorship claim was a lie; and 4) You acknowledge this person "paid me for his wikipedia page" which is a blatant breach of our TOS and suggests this is COM:SPAM/self-promotion.
