I do not see any reason for deletion or removal of the above files as I am the creator and owner of the above files which represent my family members Dimbeswar Neog, Ajaleetora Neog and Tilottama Barooah. — Preceding unsigned comment added by ADB Alberta (talk • contribs) 20:46, 28 October 2020 (UTC)
- @ADB Alberta: The creator of a photo is the original photographer; how old were you when the 1955 photo was made? Were you an active photographer then? Do you own negatives of your photos from this time? Also, most of the photos are scanned from printed, published sources. In such cases {{Own}} declaration cannot be used: we need a written evidence of free license from the actual copyright holder who published the photo (or an evidence that the copyright expired). Owning a photo print or scan does not grant you any rights to publish it. And providing false or incorrect information about authorship is a serious violation of Commons policies and it is illegal.

Эlcobbola talk, File:Pale Horse Hunting Terrorists and Commanding Heroes with the 101st Airborne Division.jpg, - I'm hoping you can provide some guidance around why this file and the others below were flagged for deletion. Jimmy Blackmon, the author and hold the copyright for Pale Horse, Cowboys Over Iraq, File:Cowboys Over Iraq Leadership from the Saddle.jpg, and another book that I wish to have listed on the page, has given me permission to upload. - For each of the files below, correct, they were not shot by Jimmy himself as he is the subject of the photo, but they were taken on his personal camera. Do I simply need to provide you with an attached email thread that grants permission for me to upload from Jimmy? File:Jimmy Blackmon.png File:JFB Marathon.jpg Any assistance is much appreciated. Regards, JFBlackmon 10/29/20 @ 8:33am CST — Preceding unsigned comment added by JFBlackmon (talk • contribs) 13:33, 29 October 2020 (UTC)
- This is not the venue to ask questions about what permission is needed. It is a venue to request restoration once that permission has been obtained. That notwithstanding, Oppose as: 1) authorship of the literary work is distinct from authorship of the visual art of the cover (by way of example, surely you don't believe J. K. Rowling illustrated this.) Outside of children's books, the authors of those distinct works are seldom the same person. Further, whoever the illustrator, as these were previously published ([1] [2]), the actual copyright holders of the cover art (the illustrator or, more likely, publisher--Post Hill Press) would need to provide permission directly (i.e., not forwarded) using the process at COM:OTRS. Regarding the other images: if copyright vests in the owner of mere equipment ("they were taken on his personal camera"), wouldn't then the copyright of Pale Horse and Cowboys Over Iraq be held by the owners of the printing presses, not Blackmon as you claim above? This is, of course, nonsense; as with the covers, the actual photographers (certainly not Blackmon) would need to provide permission directly. Эlcobbola talk 14:35, 29 October 2020 (UTC)

Hi there, the file File:Ned Luke.png was deleted on 10:10, 6 August 2020 by User:Storkk with the explanation "Likely copyright violation; see COM:Licensing. If you are the copyright holder, please follow the instructions on OTRS". The source of the photograph was this video which has been released under a valid creative commons license (Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Unported). A similar file sourced from the same video has also been nominated for deletion (File:Shawn Fonteno cropped 2.png). I was wondering if this could be undeleted as it has been released under a valid CC license. Regards Spy-cicle (talk) 16:32, 29 October 2020 (UTC)
- Support undeletion per above. @Spy-cicle: please, request {{Licensereview}} in such cases. @Timtrent: Can you elaborate, please, why do you think that being sourced from a CC-BY-SA licensed self-mage video is not enogh for CC-BY-SA license? Ankry (talk) 21:19, 29 October 2020 (UTC)

According to the Ukrainian Wikisource it should be a scan of census book for a settlement in Russian empire from year 1850. The book itself is stored in State archive of Kyiv oblast that should be a source, scan should have license {{PD-scan|PD-old-100-expired}}. --Madvin (talk) 20:33, 29 October 2020 (UTC)

- This is obvious. {{Temporarily undeleted}} to make this possible. Ankry (talk) 09:08, 30 October 2020 (UTC)
- scope says: ""scanned copies of existing texts that are useful to other WMF projects (e.g. to serve as the basis of a reliable, verifiable source) are in scope. Also allowed are files which embody something of value over and above raw text. For example, files consisting of scans of out-of-copyright books, newspapers and the like which preserve original font, layout, embedded images and the like are within scope." We use these books as source images for wikisource, that are further can be used by genealogists and historians.

- Some thoughts regarding {{Own}} — when uploading files, wizard asks if the file itself was created by uploader, so people use {{Own}} because they created a pdf file from a series of images of a book that written by some person, scanned by some other person, and taken from some archive which I usually put into Source field. --Madvin (talk) 22:00, 29 October 2020 (UTC)

Hello, this file of Jimmy Blackmon was taken by an individual contracted for professional photos for the Exactus employees, of which Jimmy is a managing partner and owns the content. He has given me written approval to use this photo for the Wikipedia page. I don't see an option to attach files within this message but if you'd like that as proof you can email me at (Redacted). — Preceding unsigned comment added by JFBlackmon (talk • contribs) 13:32, 30 October 2020 (UTC)
- Oppose You have previously claimed that the subject took this photo himself, not anybody working under a contract. Thuresson (talk) 14:05, 30 October 2020 (UTC)
- Oppose - This, like the book covers above, appears to be the property of Post Press Hill and, as Thuresson has alluded to, your credibility has been greatly impaired by numerous demonstrable untruths. Per COM:EVID, it is incumbent on you to provide appropriate evidence, not for us to seek it ("if you'd like that as proof you can email me"). Such evidence in this case would include a copy of the referenced contract ("an individual contracted for professional photos")--not Blackmon's "written approval"--that explicitly states copyright transfers to the employer (this, by the way, would not be common; contracted photographers generally retain intellectual property rights, especially rights related to relicensing.)

This photo was taken by me in Montréal (Canada) where there is no FoP regulation or law. Please undelete or explain to me why my picture is not valid.
- Canada's law, article 32.2(1)(b), says that you can photograph architectural works, or "a sculpture or work of artistic craftsmanship or a cast or model of a sculpture or work of artistic craftsmanship, that is permanently situated in a public place or building". See COM:FOP Canada and {{FoP-Canada}}. Photographing other types of works would be derivative works, and while they may well be fair dealing in a particular use (it's probably not illegal to use it on relevant article on Wikipedia for example), it's not "free" as there are possible uses of it that might violate copyright. For example, selling a book of murals -- you would likely need to get permission from the artists. Commons does not accept works under a fair use / fair dealing rationale. So, it's more of a site policy. We would need a FoP provision which explicitly allows such photos to not be derivative works (if there is no such provision in law, we generally assume that even photos of buildings are derivative works). "Works of artistic craftsmanship" usually have a functional component to them -- one example is stained glass windows. But regular paintings are purely artistic works, with no craftsmanship component, so they are not covered under Canada's exemption. In general, we think murals are more along those lines. Commons does have a policy of allowing graffiti (works painted illegally), which is controversial, but is still policy. I have no idea if the mural in this photo was illegal or not.

- 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 (1) No evidence of a free licence at source. However, this is moot, as (2) unless the copyright was transferred by operation of law or by contract, the copyright holder is the photographer not the subject, and it is irrelevant that you received the photo from the subject. --Ìch heiss Nat.

Hello, I am on the Marketing staff at Craig Hospital.
You removed a photo of our hospital that I added to the Craig Hospital page on Wikipedia, updating an older photo that had an obsolete CH logo. The photo I added was taken by my team and we use it freely on Craig Hospital's social media channels and website.
Please restore the image Craig_Hospital.jpg to Craig Hospital's Wikipedia page. It is our photo.
Thank you,

First of all, sorry for my bad English because that isn't my primary language. About some of the file that already been deleted, I've already reach the Trans Semarang itself, owner of the shelter that was deleted, via personal message to one of the operational staff (to the leader of Trans Semarang), and they already answer my messages that all of Trans Semarang's public assets (the shelter, the signs, etc) is allowed to be photographed and to be uploaded without restriction, hence the Freedom of Photography is there. They also said to me that they're planning to coordinate to the teams for email responds (as suggested by one of my colleague) to Wikimedia Commons about its policy on photographing all of the assets. Even though the rules isn't on the legal like Semarang's governments policy (Peraturan Daerah), but it's sufficient to not having any legal issues when uploading and set the appropriate license as the photographer pleased. That's all, if I may, please undelete the images. Thank you.

I loaded two images on Wikicommons, “2020-01-14_de_Vito.gif “ and “1967-09-26_Scudo_schiacciato_Giacomino_2020-01-19.png” and I used them in Wikiedia page https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Utente:Floridasso/dVP_Principale.
I was asked to specify my rights on the images, which I did in detail.
On 20/09/2020, NAT, an Administrator, and [[c:US, deleted the images from Wikicommons and subsequently from Wikipedia.
NAT gave me the following explanation: “It was necessary to change the information supplied on the description pages of the files, and not in the deletion discussion. That was not done -- the files were still in violation of policy prior to deletion due to the continued claims of {Own} and {Self}. I would suggest making your case at COM:UDR and not here.”
So I am asking you whether I should re-upload to Wikipedia the same images and charge the information on the description pages of the files (I doubt I am experienced enough to do it), or if you could transfer the information in the suitable place and undelete the images.
Thanks a lot

By default, copyright belongs to the artist, unless a written contract or law states otherwise. If you claim to be the author, you need to prove that you are the artist who created the image initially. If you claim to be the copyright holder, you need to prove that either you are the author, or you have a written copyright transfer contract with the author. Can you prove any of them?

- In order to undelete the image, we need an evidence that a free license permission has been granted by the actual copyright holder or an evidence that copyright already expired.

- Oppose - That the "publisher does not mind" is explicitly disallowed per COM:PRP#3.

Hello,
I believe the poster image was deleted on the wrong grounds. The website referred to me is not one I have taken the poster from, in fact, I had not seen that website previously (https://www.ipsc.ie/event/online-film-screening-broken-a-palestinian-journey-through-international-law-front-line-defenders). Also, the poster on that website includes the awards (on the left side), while my uploaded image did not, therefore it is not actually the same image.
I have permission from the creator of the film to use the poster.
Thanks in advance and kind regards,

- Oppose - The purpose of such link references is not demonstration of from where you took the image (indeed that we cannot know), but rather demonstration that the image, or a version of it, was previously published (i.e., its source was not the Commons) and thus requires evidence of permission. Indeed, for "permission" you wrote "Courtesy of the producer of the film, AdvocacyProductions Ltd. © 2018 AdvocacyProductions Ltd. All Rights Reserved" which is unacceptable in and of itself ("All Rights Reserved") and for source/author you wrote "AdvocacyProductions Ltd".

Dear colleagues,
This file was recently uploaded by new user @Avery Parkinson: , but it was deleted by @Sealle: for 'Copyright violation; see Commons:Licensing'. I don't know if Avery provided the proper documentation upon uploading it (I can't check that anymore because it's deleted now, but I find it plausible that something went wrong here, because new users often don't know how to do that), but the image itself is publicly available on the Good Food Institute website and explicitly captioned as 'Salmon bisque made using Wild Type’s cultivated salmon. Photo credit Rachelle Hacmac. Licensed under CC BY 4.0.'. Although they haven't provided such a complete caption for all photos in this item, the text of this item explains that all Wild Type, Avant Meats, New Age Meats and Shiok Meats photos in their collection are licensed as CC BY 4.0 (an acceptable Wikimedia Commons licence), they link to the relevant website, and provide further legal information here. I hasten to add that the BlueNalu photos are licensed as 'CC BY-NC 4.0', which is not acceptable for Wikimedia Commons, but all the others are. Can this image, and five of Avery's other uploads (excluding the BlueNalu one), all taken from the Good Food Institute CC photo collection, be restored under the condition that the licence and other important data are adequately provided? Cheers, Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 12:55, 5 November 2020 (UTC)
- Oppose - This is effectively license laundering, and is not valid permission regardless. We have no evidence that the Good Food Institute (GFI) or the blog's author is authorised to license works on behalf of Rachelle Hacmac, or on behalf of any of the other authors in the collection. As copyright initially vests in the author of an image, GFI would only be expected to hold the copyright(s), or have an ability to license them, through a formal written contract/conveyance. For the instant image, we must receive through the process at COM:OTRS either a) permission directly from Hacmac (not forwarded or in a Google docs folder) or b) a copy of the aforementioned document.

Not done: Procedural close: 1) There are no deleted files by these names; 2 you have no deleted files with similar names; and 3) to the extent you refer to files deleted per Commons:Deletion requests/Files uploaded by PeterLanders1552, previously published images require COM:OTRS evidence of permission. The comment above is thus not adequate, and there's no alternative comment that could be made here at UDR that would be actionable unless, of course, coming from an OTRS volunteer who had just successfully processed a related ticket. --Эlcobbola talk 17:40, 6 November 2020 (UTC)

File:Carriage House.jpg along with other Rucker House photos
My images were deleted on the Rucker House (Everett, WA) page suggesting that the photos were part of copyright violation which is incorrect. I am the owner of the photos and my partner, Cory Holland is the photographer. We gave Fronado permission to use the photos which is why I went ahead and uploaded them for her. I own these photos. I am releasing them to be used on this page. Please remove this violation message for her (Fronado) to use on them on her page (Rucker Mansion, Everett, WA), that is all the photos that were uploaded onto that page from yesterday (11/04/2020). Bvanc (talk) 03:31, 6 November 2020 (UTC)
- Oppose - "copyright violation" means violation of our policies related to copyright and is not necessarily to be conflated with, say, copyright infringement; the former is indeed correct regarding this image. As copyright initially vests in the author (Cory Holland), you cannot own it unless it was transferred to you by a formal written conveyance, which, of course, you have not provided. ("I own these photos" may be the case for the digital or physical files, but the intellectual property is entirely separate.) Further, as File:Carriage House.jpg was previously published, we require evidence of permission to be submitted using the process at COM:OTRS. That permission would include either a copy the document that transferred the copyright(s) to you or direct (i.e., not forwarded) permission from Holland. Эlcobbola talk 18:41, 6 November 2020 (UTC)

Hello,
Three of my pictures ( over numerous - see emails below ) have been deleted while I sent emails to confirm that I was the author of these pictures and to give permission to use them under the licence licence CC BY-SA 4b ( see below the 2 emails I sent to permissions-commons@wikimedia.org in June and July 2020 ).
The current deleted files are:

Reason: See [Ticket#2020092210007961]. A copyright lawyer concluded that "the copyright law of the United States does not prohibit anyone from posting [that] photograph online, or from creating and posting any derivatives."
Y6f&tP4z (talk) 11:20, 31 October 2020 (UTC), thread continued. --Y6f&tP4z (talk) 12:33, 1 November 2020 (UTC), clarify.
- @Y6f&tP4z: This is still a problem, that we need a legal basis for such an opinion. Why can you assume that another lawyer will not give an opposite one? Especially, if heirs of the photographer change their mind and claim copyright in several dozen years. See COM:PCP. Personally, I would not accept such opinion as a PD rationale. Ankry (talk) 10:45, 2 November 2020 (UTC)
- - - Reply #5
1. Copyright law in the U.S.A. does not allow "heirs of the photographer [to] change their mind" because all of their rights "expired on December 31, 2002 per 17 U.S.C. § 303(a)." Please ask your attorney to explain the law cited in Alexander J. Farrell's memorandum, BEST & FLANAGAN law firm, Minneapolis [Ticket#2020092210007961].
2. Your "opinion" of "a [Public Domain] rationale" lacks merit because you did not cite a statute or case law to refute the opinion fully documented by the BEST & FLANAGAN law firm, Minneapolis.
3. It is "we" who is assuming "that another lawyer" may "give an opposite" opinion. The burden of proof rests with "we" to offer proof that another lawyer may justify why 17 U.S.C. § 303(a) is interpreted incorrectly.
4. Otherwise, I am left arguing with my attorney to justify "we's" opinion. When such proof is posted, I will send it to the BEST & FLANAGAN law firm, Minneapolis, for a response.
--Y6f&tP4z (talk) 14:53, 2 November 2020 (UTC)
- @Y6f&tP4z: Which case from COM:Hirtle chart applies in your opinion here? Initially, you claimed that this was published without copyrihght notice, now you seem to suggest that we should apply {{PD-US-unpublished}} case. 17 U.S.C. § 303(a) refers to § 302 which defines the copyright term to 70pma. And so? Ankry (talk) 20:18, 2 November 2020 (UTC)

My attorney advised that both my original statement and 17 U.S.C. § 303(a) apply to this photo.
- Date of publication: 1925 through 1977
- Conditions: Published without a copyright notice: "In the United States, publication is defined as . . . the distribution of copies . . . of a work to the public by sale or other transfer of ownership, or by rental, lease, or lending."
- Copyright Term: None. In the public domain due to failure to comply with required formalities
- Commons copyright tag:
This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published in the United States between 1929 and 1977, inclusive, without a copyright notice. For further explanation, see Commons:Hirtle chart as well as a detailed definition of "publication" for public art.

1. For "evidence of publication", see [Ticket#2020092210007961]. It appears in Alexander J. Farrell's memorandum, BEST & FLANAGAN law firm, Minneapolis, and the affidavit he attached.
2. Evidence that "the image copies were distributed" is defined in the Commons, thus: "In the United States, publication is defined as . . . the distribution of copies . . . of a work to the public by sale or other transfer of ownership, or by rental, lease, or lending."
3. "You have not provided such evidence." Wrong; all requirements needed "to apply this template" have been met.

- Oppose @Y6f&tP4z and Ankry: I have read the ticket and affidavit, and at no point was a date of first publication mentioned. Furthermore, the memo notes that the distribution did not constitute publication. As such, it remained unpublished before 2003 and the 70 p.m.a. rule applies -- the photographer would have needed to pass away before 1950, and as the photo was taken in 1973, it is still assumed to be copyrighted. --Ìch heiss Nat.

1. NAT misstates my position. The key word is "17 U.S.C. § 101". The memo says, "Mr. Chalgren’s acts of giving the photograph away for free in the manner he did do not constitute acts of publication as defined in 17 U.S.C. § 101." Instead, "any copyright protection for the photograph expired on December 31, 2002 per 17 U.S.C. § 303(a)."
2. Information offered in [Ticket#2020092210007961] proves that this photo exists in the public domain. Commons policy does not allow editors to deny a request solely on the basis of a personal preference. Please identify the rule, statute or policy that this photo violates.

- The memo is contradictory on multiple levels. The memo argues that the image was not previously published prior to 2003, and that the copyright expired on 31 Dec 2002. That cannot be possible and you cannot have it both ways. If the photo was not published prior to 2003, then copyright protections for the work exist during the lifetime of the author of the work and for 70 years after their death. However, if was published prior to 1978 and without a notice, then, yes, the work would be in public domain. If the legal opinion is that the act of giving the photo away did not constitute publication, then the work is assumed to be copyrighted and protections did not expire in 2002 as claimed.

NO!: The memo argues that the image was not previously published "as defined in 17 U.S.C. § 101", which is a list of special cases. Ergo, we agree: according to the memo and affidavit, this photo 'was published prior to 1978 and without a notice' because of the owner's "acts of giving the photograph away for free in the manner he did". So, 'yes, the work [is] in public domain.'

- Mr. Chalgren’s acts of giving the photograph away for free in the manner he did do not constitute acts of publication as defined in 17 U.S.C. § 101. No, it is not a list of special cases but THE definition of publication under U.S. law. As such, per the memo and the letter of the law, the work was not published before 1978: “Publication” is the distribution of copies or phonorecords of a work to the public by sale or other transfer of ownership, or by rental, lease, or lending. [...] [17 U.S. Code § 101]. And in such a case, the copyright has not expired: Copyright in a work created before January 1, 1978, but not theretofore in the public domain or copyrighted, subsists from January 1, 1978, and endures for the term provided by section 302. In no case, however, shall the term of copyright in such a work expire before December 31, 2002; and, if the work is published on or before December 31, 2002, the term of copyright shall not expire before December 31, 2047.

1. I disagree with your interpretation of 17 U.S.C. § 101.
2. The "letter of the law" is defined by the Commons. The memo correctly states that "Chalgren’s acts of giving the photograph away for free in the manner he did do not constitute acts of publication as defined in 17 U.S.C. § 101." Instead, "any copyright protection for the photograph expired on December 31, 2002 per 17 U.S.C. § 303(a)."
3. "Thus, the copyright law of the United States does not prohibit anyone from posting the photograph online, or from creating and posting any derivatives."

- It is clearly written. That is the law. If the author's action did not constitute publication as defined by 17 U.S.C. § 101 (which defines terms for the statute), then the work remained unpublished and is therefore still enjoys protections under 17 U.S.C § 303(a). An unpublished work by a known author who was living after 1950 cannot be in public domain by reason of expiration of protections. 17 U.S.C. § 303 clearly notes that protections for such work subsist from 1978 until 70 years after the death of the author. Either the memo is mistaken about publication or it is mistaken about the expiration of protections. Unless this is clarified, the file should remain deleted per Commmons' precautionary principle.

Reply to NAT: See [Ticket#2020092210007961]. "A work only enjoys protection for the life of the author plus 70 years if it was created on or after January 1, 1978. 17 USC 302(a). In this case, the work was created in [1973]. Your interpretation for 17 USC 303 does not apply to this work."

- Oppose - The OTRS ticket is unacceptable as evidence, and its substance erroneous. The United States Copyright Office sets forth:
- "Works in Existence but Not Published or Copyrighted on January 1, 1978
- The law automatically gives federal copyright protection to works that were created but neither published nor registered before January 1, 1978. The duration of copyright in these works is generally computed the same way as for works created on or after January 1, 1978: life plus 70 years or 95 or 120 years, depending on the nature of authorship. However, all works in this category are guaranteed at least 25 years of statutory protection. The law specifies that in no case would copyright in a work in this category have expired before December 31, 2002. In addition, if a work in this category was published before that date, the term extends another 45 years, through the end of 2047." (underline added)
- The memorandum, and indeed entire OTRS ticket, provide no reasonable, if any, indication, consideration, or analysis whatsoever of why a work created in 1973 and first published in 2012 would not enjoy the "general" term(s) expressed above and instead have a copyright that expired December 31, 2002. Such explanation/evidence must be provided. That all "evidence" is from a memorandum that 1) is not on firm letterhead; 2) is not actually signed; 3) is, as far as disclosed, exclusively reliant, with no independent research or verification, upon assertions in an affidavit from an interested party; 4) appears to conflate a minimum to be a maximum; 5) contradicts the assertions made above, the Copyright Office, and long-standing understanding of duration; and 6) has been forwarded to us. If the memorandum is genuine, I might suggest seeking alternative counsel. At a minimum Farrell should contact us directly with appropriate explanation of his conclusion.

Not Advertising But The Truth About A New Tech Company
I can not understand how wikipedia can think the article about RetailProfessional& IT Services Inc is of an advertising nature. RetailProfessional& IT Services Inc does not need advertising as the tech company that came out of the mind of an individual who spent 25 years working in the technology sector of NYC and the details surrounding the founding of the company are very interesting and almost bizarre. These facts should be available to the public as anything else in my view would be censorship. The article is intended to be of a information source about the company like if a person looked up any other tech company on wikipedia. It is no way an advertisement or was ever intended to be an advertisement. I personally have donated to wikipedia and I am a avid user of Wikipedia since Wikipedia was launched. I may have been a little unclear on the process of editing and creating the article from scratch based on all the facts and did not properly upload the article correctly. If possible I could receive some assistance in this area from Wikipedia I would pay for the service of assistance.

Copyright initially vests in the author (photographer) and thus the subject would not hold copyright unless formally transferred by written conveyance--indeed, the image is clearly watermarked "He & She Photography"; 3) the assertions of "rights" and the purport "It's a (sic) public domain" are mutually exclusive; and 4) previous publication requires evidence of permission to be submitted using the COM:OTRS process.

Please restore the following pages:

Reason: See [Ticket#2020092210007961]. Copyright lawyer, Alexander J. Farrell, BEST & FLANAGAN law firm, Minneapolis, disproves all reasons offered to justify the deletion and asks the Commons to send its "conflicting evidence" of the creation of the Work or acts of publication directly to him for review.

1. Copyright term: None. The work is in the public domain due to failure to comply with required formalities.
2. Commons copyright tag:
This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published in the United States between 1929 and 1977, inclusive, without a copyright notice. For further explanation, see Commons:Hirtle chart as well as a detailed definition of "publication" for public art.

- Oppose - The new ticket has again not been accepted. As OTRS volunteers will automatically restore, or request restoration, of an accepted ticket, the repeated requests here are becoming disruptive. The previous memo argued the photograph had not been published. The new correspondence, however, instead argues the photograph was published without notice prior to 01.01.1978. While the changing perspective is itself problematic, the new assertion is also flawed as it appears to ignore the doctrine of limited publication, which does not terminate common law copyright. Because the Copyright Act of 1909 did not define publication, subsequent decisions found “Publication occurred when [...] the original or tangible copies of a work are sold, leased, loaned, given away, or otherwise made available to the general public...” (Nimmer, § 4.039(A) Internal citations removed)) Indeed, the affidavit on which the opinion relies identifies only two persons and offers no documentation/evidence/substantiation of a) anything other than what is tantamount to a private circulation and/or b) an unlimited purpose with rights of reproduction, distribution, sale, etc. For example: “it is only in cases where what is known as a general publication is shown, as distinguished from a limited publication under conditions which exclude the presumption that it was intended to be dedicated to the public, that the owner of the right of copyright is deprived of the benefit of the statutory provision” (American Tobacco Co. v. Werckmeister, 207 U.S. 284, 299 (1907); Estate of Martin Luther King, Jr., Inc. v. CBS, Inc., 194 F.3d 1211, 1218 (11th Cir. 1999) found “The court [Burke v. NBC, 598 F.2d 688 (1st Cir. 1979)] defined a general publication as occurring when a work is made available to the public at large without regard to who they are or what they propose to do with it" and "noted that courts have hesitated to find a general publication which divests a common law copyright"; etc. Эlcobbola talk 17:21, 13 November 2020 (UTC)
Not done: As previously stated, the lack of publication (publication as defined by 17 U.S.C. § 101) prior to 2003 means that the work is still protected by copyright under 17 U.S.C. § 303 (a). It was not published per the memo, and, therefore, the formalities rule does not apply. Per COM:EVID, the burden lies with the uploader or those seeking its restoration. Further undeletion requests without a new rationale will be considered distruptive and may result in further administrative action. Thank you for your understanding. --Ìch heiss Nat.

Dear Sir/Madam.
This file, so I understand, was deleted from my newly created wikipedia page about Rosa Waugh Hobhouse (1882-1971) because I had not identified the copyright holder and obtained permission for its use.
I have now discovered who is the copyright holder for all material relating to Rosa Waugh Hobhouse. The copyright holder is Gail Clarke Hall, Rosa Hobhouse's great niece. Gail Clarke Hall has given me permission to use the photograph 'Rosa Hobhouse in her Teaching Gown, Cardiff. c1910'.
I paste below the permissions email that Gail Clarke Hall has read and signed.
I hope that I am now able to use the image in my Wikipedia piece about Rosa Waugh Hobhouse.

The file was created by my depicting a conversation between myself and a primary source of authoritative information on the subject, the recently deceased David Dillgard - Snohomish Country Librarian and curator of the Patric archives in the Northwest Room at the Everett Public Library near Patric's home town. It was entirely within my right to publish this image. Please undelete.
- Oppose - Whatever the copyright status (which may indeed be problematic as this is derivative of text written my multiple authors; it is indeed acknowledged here to be a "conversation" and the requestor cannot simultaneously be two people), this is out of scope. Not only is the educational utility questionable, but COM:SCOPE requires that content "must be a media file," where "media file" is a defined term that excludes files intended merely to represent text ("files which are representative merely of raw text" are "not considered media files, and may not be hosted here").

- @Nat: I am providing here my rationale: IMO, due to lack of similar cases, we need to made our own judgement basing on the available information. In this case the information is unlikely that two persons would create, for example, a text identically or similarly. And I am considering what can be creative while creating the logo: (1) the text itself, (2) the font used, (3) the four-bar line, (4) placing the text on the four-bar background or (5) the margin between the text and the backgrond. IMO, neither of the elements/operations exceeds the abovementioned ToO condition. I referred the DR for two reasons: (1) two users in that DR are Swedish and they are likely more familiar about Swedish copyright law than anyone of us, and (2) I was looking for an image that is below Swedish ToO (in order to estimate where the ToO is you need something above and something below). We cannot consider that everything is copyrighted as then noone is able to create a new work that is not a DW of something. Of course, I would welcome any comment about the above as well as more opinions. Ankry (talk) 13:24, 26 October 2020 (UTC)
- @Ankry: I'm not fully opposed to undeletion. JGS pointed to a possible comparison to other Nordic countries. It seems to be that font could be copyrightable in both neighbouring Scandinavian countries. If the font used in the logo is copyrighted, the undeletion should not go forward. However, if it is not, then undelete. --Ìch heiss Nat. Redd mìt mìr.🥨 15:21, 26 October 2020 (UTC)

Especially as the subject is the creator of the project, it would not be unlikely that they provided an image for the project's use (i.e., purported cc license is understood to be merely per the subject, not from the actual author; permission needs to come from the latter.) This seems a COM:PRP issue. The author (photographer) should send permission using the process at COM:OTRS. Эlcobbola talk 16:10, 16 November 2020 (UTC)

This file was deleted by mistake, the author https://promodj.com/sedoyfoto/ has written to permissions-ru@wikimedia.org an email, that described he is the author and give all the permisions needed. He is russian and has written the following:
"To permissions-ru@wikimedia.org Настоящим я заявляю, что являюсь автором и/или единственным обладателем исключительных авторских прав на произведение https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File%3A1xukhDQ5Aho.jpg Я согласен опубликовать это произведение на условиях свободной лицензии GFDL.

Hello, I received explicit, written permission from the photographer to use this photo. I also received permission to use the photo by its subject. The permission from the photographer, Jeff French Segall, was emailed by me, to Wikipedia on October 8. Alfred Neumann replied to me on October 10 and the photo has been on Wikipedia ever since. The photo plays an integral part in the page "Rochelle Saidel" and I really hope that you'll understand and that it will be able to go back up on Wikipedia. Thank you.
- Oppose - The OTRS ticket has not been accepted. Infirmities include: 1) permission is for use on Wikipedia only, and for certain articles only (permission must relate to all uses, everywhere); 2) permission does not identify a specific license (it must); and 3) permission has been forwarded--it is a screenshot of an email/message (permission must be received directly from the author).

- Oppose - Peruvian copyright law says no such thing. The referenced section (Title I, Article 9(b)) says "Official texts of a legislative, administrative or judicial nature, [and] their official translations, without prejudice to the obligation to respect the texts and cite the source." ("Los textos oficiales de carácter legislativo, administrativo o judicial, ni las traducciones oficiales de los mismos, sin perjuicio de la obligación de respetar los textos y citar la fuente.") The word official ("oficiales") is an adjective modifying certain documents; it is not a noun, let alone one meaning that all pictures of government officials are deprived of copyright protection (such a statutory provision would be novel, and absurd). The cited phrasing is also consistent with {{PD-PE-exempt}}. The provided Flickr source has a CC-by-NC-SA 2.0 license which is, of course, unacceptable. Эlcobbola talk 17:29, 16 November 2020 (UTC)

The aforementioned evidence of permission will need to come from the actual author. Эlcobbola talk 16:15, 17 November 2020 (UTC)

This file was deleted for "No permission". However, the file has a permission and was uploaded as CC-BY-SA-3.0. Why is extra proof of licensing required, is it simply because there is a URL address in the permission field? Any photo uploaded by a website owner requires further permission (OTRS or something like that), as long as the attribution on the CC-BY-SA template is a URL (even if the file was never uploaded to anywhere else)? That would be absurd. This photo was never published on http://www.chinatravelsavvy.com/ (the website is offline now, but its archived version is available on web.archive.org) The user who requested deletion should be responsible to show why the file has copyright violation (e.g. the photo was found on some website and the website claimed it was copyrighted). Otherwise, any photo labeled "own work" would be questioned.
In addition, there is potential conflict of interest involved. The user who sent the file for deletion (User:钉钉) intended to replace the old photos in several articles with his own low-resolution ones photoed with a mobile phone. See the discussion on Chinese Wikipedia zh:Talk:瑞光塔#瑞光塔文章图片.--如沐西风 (talk) 17:36, 17 November 2020 (UTC)
- Oppose - The author was represented to be "Chinatravelsavvy" and the permission field was "ChinaTravelSavvy.Com - China Travel Guide". At the time of upload (4 June 2010), the ChinaTravelSavvy.Com website said "Copyright China Travel Savvy. All Rights Reserved." (See archive of 12 May 2010) This is a textbook example of when additional evidence of permission is required, especially because no evidence or verification was required to register the name "Chinatravelsavvy." Indeed, by way of example, right now one could register "RealChinaTravelSavvy" and claim the uploader a fraud and that the photograph is all rights reserved just like the website says. How would we know which was real? Only one doesn't reconcile with the website... Request appears unfamiliar with COM:EVID, which says "In all cases, the burden of proof lies on the uploader or other person arguing for the file to be retained to demonstrate that as far as can reasonably be determined: [...] the file is in the public domain or is properly licensed." (underline added) Эlcobbola talk 17:57, 17 November 2020 (UTC)
- Comment from a page watcher: @如沐西风: File:Suzhou Pan Men Scenic Area.jpg is not a low-resolution image. 4000px, with more than 3 MB in size, is a good photo for me. And as for the image, you're wrong. Once uploaded on that website, the image you're talking about is automatically subjected to the website's terms, and if the term reads "all rights reserved", it is automatically Not OK for Commons. Free images are either "some rights reserved (meaning freely-licensed under CC) or "no rights reserved" (meaning public domain). Better still upload your own image, preferrably original one, or if you don't have, send permission via email system of COM:OTRS. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 18:36, 17 November 2020 (UTC)
- Did you find the SAME photo ON THAT WEBSITE? This is NOT a photo on a copyrighted website. I agree that any photo from an "all rights reserved" website is not suitable for WikiCommons. But it is not the case. ONLY IF the photo was published on that website, that copyright disclaimer works for the photo.
- I agree that WikiCommons have rules and should be obeyed. But I also believe presumption of innocence and due process should be respected by this project. Right now, there is no smoking-gun proof that the file was uploaded to that website. Besides, the user who requested for deletion never gave any facts regarding the publication date and place. The deletion process is flawed and should be revoked. As for the "RealChinaTravelSavvy" thing, I think there could be doubt about any photo on this website. Who knows whether the uploader is faithful on the copyright information? Did the uploader steal the file from someone's harddisk and declared it his/her own? You cannot and should not make deletion decisions on doubts. Facts are needed.--如沐西风 (talk) 19:02, 17 November 2020 (UTC)
- That COM:EVID says "In all cases, the burden of proof lies on the uploader or other person arguing for the file to be retained to demonstrate that as far as can reasonably be determined: [...] the file is in the public domain or is properly licensed" (underline added) is a fact. No one but you has to demonstrate anything. Copyright, further, subsists upon creation; the assumption that all rights remain reserved is the default position, just like innocence.

Math videos for Txikipedia
As other files within the Education Program this videos were deleted without explaining why they were deleted. The music used was free as all the project was uploaded using free content. @EugeneZelenko:

-Theklan (talk) 10:18, 16 November 2020 (UTC)

File:Zatikiak.webm was deleted per this DR; File:MATE BOLUMENA TXIKIPEDIA Grande (1) (convert-video-online.com).webm (a redirect to File:Txikipedia - Bolumena.webm) and File:MATE BOLUMENA def Grande (1) (convert-video-online.com).webm were deleted per this DR. You appear, in fact, to know this as you reference the reason for their deletion: a concern about non-free music. What is the basis for the contention that "the music used was free"? What music was it? Who is the author? Where can we find evidence of a free license?

Why was this file and others regarding Cape Verde deleted? I have never heard about copyright restrictions for images of buildings, here in Cape Verde. TenIslands (talk) 13:52, 7 November 2020 (UTC)
- In the case of the first file, as I recall, the picture was taken by a Wikipedia User, therefore, no copyright restrictions regarding authorship. TenIslands (talk) 14:03, 7 November 2020 (UTC)
- @TenIslands: the country's copyright law says otherwise. See Commons:FOP Cape Verde. The law's treatment of the reuses of pictorial representations of Cape Verde buildings and other artworks like sculptures is confined only to noncommercial purposes. Wikimedia Commons has a strict licensing policy (see Commons:Licensing#Acceptable licenses) which requires commercial reuses by anyone in the world of images of copyrighted buildings and other artworks, in accordance of the mission of providing freely-licensed media files that can be used by anyone in the world, for any purpose. The following is the complete extract from Commons:FOP Cape Verde, with highlights.
The following embodiments of works already lawfully published or disclosed shall be lawful, irrespective of authorization of the respective author and without any need for compensation, as long as the authenticity and integrity of the title and the name of the author are mentioned and respected: ... (d) reproduction, broadcasting or communication, by any other means, to the public, of the image of a work of architecture, three dimensional arts, photography or applied arts, which is kept permanently in a place open to the public, except if the image of the work is the main subject of the reproduction, broadcasting or communication in question, and if it were used for commercial purposes.
— in: 2009 Article.62.1(d)
- IMO, the country should remove noncommercial restriction for images of Cape Verde buildings, sculptures, and other artistic works to be permitted on Commons. In accordance with Commons:PCP, Commons respects the copyright of the architects, sculptors, and others from the side of the authors of those works, even if the entire Cape Verde population doesn't. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 14:25, 7 November 2020 (UTC)
- My English language level is not that good, therefore, if you would be so kind to help me with some legal terms I will apreciate it. Even reading the Portuguese version of the law, I remain with some doubts. Isn’t the usage in an on-line encyclopedia a didactic one (1. (b) of Article 62)?
- Nevertheless, I don’t know which was the content of the last two pictures but the first one was a warning on a wall. I don’t understand how that warning should be considered an “literary, artistic or scientific” work. It was no architectural work, nor a building, nor a poem or anything like that.
- TenIslands (talk) 18:49, 7 November 2020 (UTC)
- @TenIslands: as far as my understanding of Commons' mission and licensing policy, it really requires all media files like images to be freely-usable by anyone around the world. Images that are intended for teaching or learning purposes only are not free enough. Commons' strict licensing rules mean the images should be used by anyone for any purpose, including commercial use. Commercial means the use of images of copyrighted buildings and other artworks in modern and new media like commercial T-shirt prints, YouTube vlogs for profit of the YouTuber/vlogger, post cards, commercial tourists' guide books, and calendar designs. If Cape Verde copyright law doesn't allow such purposes for the images of sculptures etc. — that is, conflicting with the mission of Wikimedia Commons — then these images are unfree for Commons. If there is no indication that they would amend their copyright law, then it is better to have one image transferred to a local Wikipedia under fair use guideline (unfortunately fair use means lower resolutions and potentially destroying metadata, but we have no choice, as long as Cape Verde has no Commons-acceptable FOP). JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 19:22, 7 November 2020 (UTC)
- Thank you for your explanation. I will try to get better information from someone, here in Cape Verde, whoever has better understanding of the interpretation of the laws than myself (with the restrictions due to the COVID-19 epidemics, it won’t be that quick).
- However, I do insist that the image in question is no work of art, no copyrighted material, no building structure or whatever that might be under FOP scrutiny. It was just a warning on a wall! Therefore, I request the undeletion since what was represented in the picture does not comply with the restrictions related with FOP. Thank you.

Reason: Can File:Kolpakova.jpg be restored please? An email with a CC BY-SA 4.0 license statement has been received (ticket:2020102710011881), which should resolve the license problem mentioned in the deletion log ("No license"). Was there any other problem not directly mentioned in the log? Without further information, I don't know what else need to be verified at OTRS. If the authenticity is the problem, I believe it's normally allowed to have it restored with a {{OTRS received}} tag as we work on the already received (but not resolved) OTRS ticket for a while. whym (talk) 23:25, 16 November 2020 (UTC)
- Oppose - The name on their email account (distinct from the address) does not match who they purport to be in the email. As an example with alternate names to preserve privacy: this is an email from "Erika Mustermann (sillyemailname@hotmail.com)" which, in its body, claims "I, Jane Doe, am ..." Why have you not reconciled this? Absent a very good explanation, this greatly undermines their credibility. This work is attributed to Yoko Honma (本間陽子); we require evidence that is the person who is granting permission. Эlcobbola talk 17:05, 17 November 2020 (UTC)
- I didn't mean to say everything was cleared. The investigation and conversation are ongoing and that's when you would use {{OTRS received}} (if the email from our side happened a bit sooner, I mean); "If a valid permission is not provided within 30 days of the first response by an OTRS volunteer, this file will be deleted." Regarding the names in the email - the official site of 本間陽子 mentions the sender as someone working with them, so I don't see anything very fishy, other than the small possibility of impersonation. (I refrain from being more explicit than that about the names and the website for privacy reasons here.) whym (talk) 12:39, 18 November 2020 (UTC)
- This page is for requesting restoration once acceptable ("cleared") permission has been received. It is not our practice to restore already deleted images that do not yet have accepted permission unless consideration of a visual characteristic or visual identification is needed (neither of which is the case here.) If permission has not been cleared, what are we doing here? That you are not concerned about the discrepancy is troubling, and will result in either non-restoration or a new deletion request if not resolved. Эlcobbola talk 17:13, 18 November 2020 (UTC)

Please, resolve this "deletion" problem I have been stuck with for 3 months already. --Anthear (talk) 18:15, 19 November 2020 (UTC)

Hello,
I represent the company, Sabanci Holding, and we kindly request the undeletion of the file that mentioned in the title. We hold the copyright for the image, what kind of procedure should we follow, can you please let us know? Thank you.
--Jeanvaljean039 (talk) 11:16, 18 November 2020 (UTC)
- Oppose - 1) Previously published images require COM:OTRS evidence of permission; 2) that evidence needs to come from the author (photographer), not a company representative (if copyright was transferred from the author to the company, evidence of both a) that transfer and b) that you are not merely a representative of the company, but a representative with the authority to license intellectual properties on behalf of the company needs to be provided); and 3) the foregoing seems moot, as this does not appear a notable company or a notable person.

- Support - The "sun" graphic immediately precludes this from being mere text, but {{PD-textlogo}}, despite the name, also applies to "simple geometric shapes." This is not dissimilar to examples at COM:TOO United States and thus plausibly could be {{PD-textlogo}}/{{PD-shape}}/{{PD-ineligible}}.

- @Emacc73: How do you wish to fix the problem? We need some evidence that you are able to do so. If the images are under cc-by-sa-4.0 license as you declared, we need evidence for this. If they are under another license, we need to know which license and why. Ankry (talk) 17:25, 21 November 2020 (UTC)

If I have understood, I have to write to OTRS(permissions-es@wikimedia.org), sending them a copy of the licenses, and then, if everything is correct, they restore the pictures, isn´t it? I have looked into google for the way to know if a picture is under any license and I found the https://tineye.com/ page. I have found that Muelle de Hierro 01.jpg has license and I will not use it anymore. But the other ones are owned by "Port Authority of Vilagarcía de Arousa". I just only need to ask them for a document of permission and then send it to OTRS, do I? Emacc73 (talk) 09:52, 22 November 2020 (UTC)

Die Löschung von Template:Nofacebook rückgängig machen
Die Löschung der Vorlage war ein klarer Adminfehler, die Vorlage ist valide, die meisten Lizenzen hier werden von Facebook (und anderen sog. Social Media) nicht eingehalten. Statt nun gegen diese klaren Lizenzverletzungen vorzugehen, wird vor den Datenkraken gekuscht und der Gesetzlosigkeit der Vorrang gewährt. Ich erwarte von der WMF, rechtlich gegen Lizenzverstöße vorzugehen, nicht vor solchen bösen Datenkraken zu kapitulieren. Grüße vom Sänger ♫ (talk) 16:36, 23 October 2020 (UTC)
- +1 Selbst wenn die Stellungnahme für die USA und für CC-Lizenzen gelten sollte, gilt sie nicht in Europa und für die zahlreichen anderen Lizenzen. Hinzu kommt, daß Facebook die Exif verändert, was in Deutschland unzulässig ist. --Ralf Roletschek 16:44, 23 October 2020 (UTC)
- Related current discussion (mostly in English, so also accessible for those who don't read German, with arguments from both sides): Commons:Deletion requests/NoFacebook templates. Gestumblindi (talk) 21:08, 23 October 2020 (UTC)
- @Christian Ferrer: Should also be mentioned because there needs more explains by them on why this "goes against our project scope". --Liuxinyu970226 (talk) 01:10, 24 October 2020 (UTC)
- Oppose a template with the unambiguous wording "It is not It permitted to upload this file to Facebook." goes against several of our policies (com:Scope and com:Licensing).
- 1/ it is not true, see meta:Legal/CC BY-SA licenses and social media, and being false that sentence contradict the point "providing knowledge; instructional or informative". furthermore it was wrongly widely distributed on our files using templates.
- 2/ even if one proves that there is a begining of truth in that kind of sentence, are we going to make templates for every websites where there is a chance that a file of Commons can be used in violation of the copyright? Because that will be potentialy a lot of templates, in fact one template for every website of the world.
- 3/ this template is fully the opposite of "...being used by anyone, anytime, for any purpose"
- 4/ this template is fully the opposite of "Republication and distribution must be allowed."
- 5/ if we accept such template then I wonder:
- 1/why we don't change the wording of our licensing policy: "Republication and distribution must be allowed... excepted in various web sites and social medias that will be indicated on the media file pages".
- 2/why we don't allow every single users to make how many templates they wish with the same kind of sentence "It is not It permitted to upload this file to xxxx, to yyy and to zzzz".
- All those point are the exact opposite of the understanding that I have of our project scope, our licensing policy and of the aim of Wikimedia Commons. But seeing the amount of support for this kind of templates and for this kind of obvious restrictive wording, included supports by administrators, I guess I live on another planet. Christian Ferrer (talk) 07:00, 24 October 2020 (UTC)
- Would you pleas stop with your non-discussion closing and acting against consensus in this disputed area? Your personal view is not the only one that counts, and the unfounded change of the meta-page, that was done without giving any real argument, as well just some POV-edit by a single person, is disputed as well. There were arguments against that change, and the POV-pusher didn't bother to answer up to now. So I don't accept that page as a base for such a decision.

- It is unclear to me whether this template is defining an extra restriction prohibiting a Facebook user to publish the image on Facebook, or just a warning that publication on Facebook in accordance with Facebook's Terms of Use is not possible (the user who is not the copyright holder cannot grant a license to Facebook). In the first case, deletion of the template would have required deletion of all images transcluding it due to failed CC-licensing. In the second case, the warning would rather need to be included to any CC-license template. Both cases should be discussed elsewhere, IMO. Ankry (talk) 15:36, 24 October 2020 (UTC)
- Warum CC-Lizenz? In der Vorlage steht nichts von CC. --Ralf Roletschek 16:40, 24 October 2020 (UTC)
- I suggest that if contradicts with CC. And so it is useless. And if such a warning is needed for a specific license, it should be included into the license template, not as a separate one. Ankry (talk) 16:52, 25 October 2020 (UTC)

- Ralf: was mein Kollege Ankry damit wohl meint, ist dass durch den Baustein bei CC-lizenzierten Bildern die CC-Lizenz ungültig würde (aufgrund der zusätzlichen Nutzungseinschränkung). Dies ließe sich allerdings durch ein angepasstes Wording (i.S.v. nicht muss oder darf nicht, sondern z.B. sollte bzw. sollte nicht) beheben, so wie wir das ja auch beim Wunsch nach Bild-nahem Credit machen. --Túrelio (talk) 17:03, 25 October 2020 (UTC)
- Auch die Bausteine Persönlichkeitsrecht und Panoramafreiheit schränken alle Lizenzen ein, ein Bearbeitungsverbot kann durch zusätzliche Schranken des Urheberrechts existieren, auch wenn es die Lizenz erlaubt. Deshalb ist CC-BY-SA für Bilder der Panoramafreiheit eigentlich irreführend, das müßte eigentlich ND sein. Aber das will niemand wahrhaben und es ist hier auch nicht das Thema. Logos und Nazisymbole dürfen nicht beliebig nachgenutzt werden, auch wenn es unsere Lizenzen suggerieren. Dieses "Für immer und jeden Zweck frei verwendbar" ist ein Trugschluß. Markenrechtlich geschützte Logos dürfen nicht kommerziell verwendet werden, wreden hier aber so lizenziert, es müßte NC sein. --Ralf Roletschek 21:22, 28 October 2020 (UTC)

- minor oppose A little per Christian Ferrer, however, I support re-creating another template to warn people to better refrain from (instead of "do not") reposting such images, on any social media (yes, believe me, not only Facebook) that do behaviors like broking the EXIF metadatas, removing the license tags and claiming "© 20XX-2024 XXX.com all rights reserved", and list all possible websites that match these behaviors (believe me, the Bilibili, a recent-year well-known Chinese ACG video sites, also do remove the EXIF metadatas when posting images on that, per my Wireshark detectings, contact me via e-mail to get some examples). --Liuxinyu970226 (talk) 00:07, 25 October 2020 (UTC)
- That could indeed be a good compromise, I think. Restore this template with a more advisory wording, and change the wording of the other templates currently discussed accordingly. Gestumblindi (talk) 09:23, 25 October 2020 (UTC)
- If there is a better wording for CC-files, I would change my template accordingly, but a warning for those dumb free-as-in-beer-users is imho very appropriate. That doesn't solve the problem for those files, that are not under a CC-licence, but other fee licences, like GDPL etc., the ones Ralf uses. They are definitely completely incompatible with Fratzenbuch etc., but completely fine here. Grüße vom Sänger ♫ (talk) 09:30, 25 October 2020 (UTC)
- @Gestumblindi and Sänger: My main point is that not only Facebook do remove EXIFs, but also other same-behavior sites, PS: GFDL is, as per that 2018 consensus, no longer allowed as the only "free license" to license uploaders' files, the GFDL-as-only-free new files should whatsoever be deleted even we can restore this template. --Liuxinyu970226 (talk) 05:01, 27 October 2020 (UTC)
- As far as I know, Ralf now uses the "GFDL 1.2 only" only in addition to other free licenses like FAL (that is, "GFDL 1.2 only" as GFDL without later versions, but not "only" in the sense of the only license). Gestumblindi (talk) 20:57, 28 October 2020 (UTC)
- Ich habe ganz gröb geschätzt 35.000 eigene Fotos, die als einzige Lizenz GFDL 1.2only haben, grob 20.000 haben zusätzlich eine oder mehrere andere Lizenzen. <Google-Translation>: I roughly estimated 35,000 photos of my own that have GFDL 1.2only as the only license, roughly 20,000 also have one or more other licenses. --Ralf Roletschek 21:17, 28 October 2020 (UTC)
- Your "GFDL 1.2 only" as only license uploads are grandfathered from when this was still allowed, I suppose. For new uploads, that license isn't allowed as the only license anymore. But we digress. Gestumblindi (talk) 22:59, 3 November 2020 (UTC)
- Das ist ja der Grund, warum ich seit 15. Okt. 2018 kaum noch was hochlade. Wenn jetzt noch die URVs von Facebook geduldet werden und man darauf nicht hinweisen darf, mache ich hier die Tür hinter mir zu. Immer wieder passiert sowas, immer wieder gegen die Urheber. Erst werden gegen unseren Willen nachträglich Lizenzen verändert, trotz Widerspruch, dann wird eine Lizenz verboten, jetzt sollen URVs geduldet werden. Das paßt nicht mit meinem Rechtsverständnis und meinen Vorstellungen von Fairness zusammen. Hier setzen sich die Leute durch, die ganz laut nach Freiheit schreien. Ist ja auch leicht, wenn man selbst kaum oder gar nichts eigenes beizusteuern hat. Den aktiven Fotografen wird lieber das Maul verboten, wir haben nur zu produzieren und die Klappe zu halten. Sollen das andere machen. Soll doch die Freibierfraktion zukünftig mit ihren Telefonen fotografieren. --Ralf Roletschek 07:39, 4 November 2020 (UTC)

Template:Personality rights, Template:FoP, Template:Trademarked, Template:Nazi symbol and other Category:Restriction tags also restrict the licence conditions, whether CC, FAL or GFDL.

- @Ralf Roletschek: Personality rights, Trademarked and Nazi symbol are legal restrictions unrelated to copyright. FoP is a special case and it is not a restriction but rather a PD-like rationale. IMO, if you wish to add the NoFacebook restriction to a license that accepts extra restrictions, you should create a separate license template. Adding the NoFacebook restriction may be misleading, especially in a multi-license case where one of them is CC. And you have no other legal basis to add the restriction but your copyright. However, this is not the right venue for such discussions. Note, that nobody supported your request so far. Ankry (talk) 22:06, 3 November 2020 (UTC)

It has been mentioned in this discussion before. Those opposing the deletions over there are of course as well in support for my wish here. Grüße vom Sänger ♫ (talk) 13:19, 4 November 2020 (UTC)
- Support undeletion. First, the deletion by Christian was clearly a deletion by an (emotionally) involved admin, as his comments strongly show. The WMF-changed page on meta does not understand that the TOU of facebook and others contradict many of our free licences, because the companies TOUs generally include an unlimited use of all material without any attribution for their own purposes. What the WMF is trying to do, is downgrading all our licences to a general 'public domain'. But this is very wrong. --.js 07:19, 11 November 2020 (UTC)

Falls das alles zutriffft und du von ihm ausreichende Rechte erhalten/erworben hast (womit du aber nicht zum Autor/Urheber wirst), um das Foto unter einer freien Lizenz zu verbreiten, dann wäre das beste, wenn dieser Fotograf mit einer offiziellen Mail an permissions-commons-de@wikimedia.org bestätigt, dass er mit der gewählten freien Lizenz (cc-by-sa-4.0) einverstanden ist. --Túrelio (talk) 23:27, 21 November 2020 (UTC)

I am the President of the football club this logo belongs to. My understanding is that our logo is not copyrighted, and is free to be used by anyone, anywhere. I may have entered the wrong licence information - I am new to uploading/editing on wikipedia and wikimedia, and am still learning how everything works. Can you please advise how I can rectify this and get the logo undeleted?

- Info Draft article rejected at en:Draft:Massey University Football Club. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Thuresson (talk • contribs) 23:22, 22 November 2020 (UTC)
- @WelshGooner14: Oppose on two points:
- per Commons' policy on project scope. As noted by Thuresson, the draft was already declined once by AFC reviewers on English Wikipedia and, based on the current version of the draft, it will most likely be declined again. And as such, it cannot be considered as legitimately in use.
- Even if scope was not an issue, previously published works require that the copyright holder send permission and a specific release under an accepted free licence using OTRS.
- To your point about copyright -- Unless exempted from protection under the law, does not meet the threshold of originality to be protected under the law, or protections have expired according to the law, all creative works are assumed to be copyrighted and afforded protection under the law. In New Zealand, works are protected for the lifetime of the author and 50 years after their death. As Wikimedia projects are subject to U.S. laws, United States copyright law also applies.
- Thank you for your understanding. --Ìch heiss Nat. Redd mìt mìr.🥨 05:08, 23 November 2020 (UTC)
- @Nat: Can you offer some ideas on how to ensure the draft does not get declined again? I have included more sources now, but do I need more? I have seen similar articles with fewer sources that are accepted. As to the image File:Massey University Football Club Logo.jpg, if I can identify the correct copyright information for the image, can it be undeleted? Or will I need to re-upload with the correct copyright information? Thanks for your help. (WelshGooner14 (talk) 10:37, 23 November 2020 (UTC))
- @WelshGooner14: Suggestions have already been made by the AFC reviewer in their decision to decline the draft.

File:1973 Gay Pride.jpg request #4
Reason: Please review [Ticket#2020092210007961], November 16. Yet again, copyright lawyer Alexander J. Farrell, BEST & FLANAGAN law firm, Minneapolis, felt the need to debunk new tricks, none of which justify deletion.
- - - Reply #14
1. Fantasies of "limited publication" (NAT, November 13) surrounding Chalgren’s 'Gay Pride' photo are not only specious but are disproven by the Tretter Collection in GLBT Studies housed at the University of Minnesota Libraries, Minneapolis, one of the most extensive collections of GLBT history resources in the world, 50 million pages of materials [3,200 linear feet], in 50+ languages.
2. Personal insults (NAT, November 9) followed by frivolous and unending excuses from someone not licensed to practice law is an obvious attempt to protect purveyors of wishful history. It's time for Wikipedia leadership to end the scam and enable history to speak for itself.
3. Copyright term: None. The work is in the public domain due to failure to comply with required formalities.
4. Commons copyright tag:
This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published in the United States between 1929 and 1977, inclusive, without a copyright notice. For further explanation, see Commons:Hirtle chart as well as a detailed definition of "publication" for public art.

- Oppose - As has been communicated several times before, images reliant upon OTRS will be automatically restored, or their restoration arranged, for you once everything is in order. There is nothing to be accomplished in this venue (COM:UDR) and that this image has not yet been restored is indication that the ticket has not been accepted. Characterisation of good faith concerns, whether correct or incorrect, as "fantasies" whilst simultaneously bemoaning (unsubstantiated, non-existent) "Personal insults" and offering such bad faith piffle as "frivolous and unending excuses from someone not licensed to practice law is an obvious attempt to protect purveyors of wishful history" is inconsistent with sound judgment, and one indeed wonders whether you've considered how such comments reflect on the validity of your position. Эlcobbola talk 15:20, 23 November 2020 (UTC)
Not done: Per Elcobbola. Once OTRS has determined that there is sufficient rationale for undeletion, they will restore or request restoration. Failure to adhere to Commons guidelines and further out-of-process undeletion requests on this matter will be considered to be disruptive and will result in administrative action.

This file is released by ESA, which being an Intergovernmental Organisation (IGO); its image is released under ESA standard license. It stated that "You may use ESA images or videos for educational or informational purposes, as long as the image is credited, and not implying ESA is endorsing the user in any form." More information about ESA's licensing policy can be found here. In fact, ESA has a lovely page here on Wikicommons for all the excellent job they do. Which clearly contradicts the reason for deletion provided by the Wikipedia user: "This file is a copyright violation for the following reason: The file is from the ESA, in which it's Terms and Conditions stated, "The contents of the ESA website are intended for the personal and non-commercial use of its users." As a result, the file is copyrighted and unfree." If the honorable gentleman did his due diligence more thoroughly, we can all save some efforts.
Sakuav (talk) 19:47, 24 November 2020 (UTC)
- Oppose - The link provided above purported to support a cc-by-sa-3.0 license says "Where expressly so stated, images or videos are covered by the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 IGO (CC BY-SA 3.0 IGO) licence." (underline added) There is no such express statement at the image source, which says only "© ESA." Accordingly, I see no indication of the purported cc-by-sa-3.0 license whatsoever. The site's terms and conditions indeed say "The contents of the ESA website are intended for the personal and non-commercial use of its users" and "Users may not modify, publish, transmit, participate in the transfer or sale of, reproduce, create derivative works from, distribute, perform, display or in any way exploit any of the content, software, material or services, in whole or in part, without obtaining prior written authorisation." (underlining added) These terms are unacceptable, and there is no evidence yet on offer that this work is free. Whatever may be at Category:European_Space_Agency is OTHERSTUFF. Эlcobbola talk 20:07, 24 November 2020 (UTC)
- Firstly, this image is published under ESA_Multimedia, which is a part of ESA's image galley; therefore, the Copyright Notice Images shall be conclusive in regard to copyright, and the site's terms and conditions shall only be prima facie evidence. Secondly, if cc-by-sa-3.0 did not apply to an image, it falls under Images released under ESA standard license, which can be referred to, again, at Copyright Notice Images. I apologize for bringing the OTHERSTUFF up in this discussion, as they might turn out inadmissible to Wikipedia commons due to the similar nature of their copyright status. Sakuav (talk) 20:46, 24 November 2020 (UTC)
- As I explained, Copyright Notice Images indefinites that works licensed as cc-by-sa-3.0 are "expressly so stated." There is no such statement for this image, or for the entirety of ESA's image galley. The ESA standard license is also not acceptable. It limits use to "educational or informational purposes"; we require use for all purposes. Indeed, it also says "if ESA images are to be used in advertising or any commercial promotion, layout and copy must be submitted to ESA beforehand for approval." This is an unacceptable restriction. The ESA standard license also makes no reference to being perpetual (non-expiring) or non-revocable, both of which are mandatory. Эlcobbola talk 20:58, 24 November 2020 (UTC)

Hi, I was new to the wikipedia formatting and it has been months, I don't remember how I labeled the image but it was not intentional and there are multiple resources where this image can come from thus it would be impossible to list every place where the image is used. How could I label an image as "found online"? Also, I would like the draft name Yoko Marikawa be whitelisted so I could save any draft (I have been having troubles with saving drafts under the name). I am currently trying on my second attempt paying more careful attention, please provide me with the right steps so I could avoid future copyright issues.

- Oppose - The website credits the image to Meir Alipur (מאיר אליפור), not to you (Ayelet chaya). As the subject of the photograph was "born Ayelet Chaya" (per he.wiki: "נולדה בשם אַיֶּלֶת חיה"), it appears that you are the subject. You, in fact, seem to acknowledge this: "The photo was given to me by the photographer with permission" (התמונה נתנה לי על ידי הצלם באישור) Copyright initially vests in the author (photographer) of an image, not the mere subject. Ownership of a physical (or digital) copy of the image ("It was me who sent the photo to that website editors") is entirely distinct from ownership of the underlying copyright. You would only own the copyright if formally transferred from the author to you through a written conveyance. We thus require either direct (i.e., not forwarded) permission from the actual author or a copy of that conveyance to be summitted using the process at COM:OTRS.

The sculptor agreed (there is no FoP in Estonia so this is why sculptors permission is required). The dispute is on how should that permission from the sculptor look like. Please help to solve that.

- Oppose ticket:2020071910004071 is not acceptable in its current form. 1) We do not accept forwarded permission; 2) the license must be explicit (i.e., for a CC variant, a version number is needed); and 3) permission must relate to explicit works. The sculptor, Jaak Soans, will need to contact us directly (not forwarded by other parties) and explicitly identify the license and works to which it is intended to apply. Эlcobbola talk 20:07, 7 October 2020 (UTC)
- Oppose per Elcobbola. My position on the matter was made clear in the linked discussion on my talk page. Regardless of whether one accepts forwarded permissions or not, Ticket:2020071910004071 is insufficient. In any country where there is no freedom of panorama, such as Estonia, the work depicted must be under an acceptable free licence and the copyright holder must specify, if a Creative Commons licence, the version of the licence in question -- especially so if there is a share-alike component. --Ìch heiss Nat.

- I'm an OTRS agent. I did contact him directly.
- Interpretation that "the work depicted must be under an acceptable free licence" is way more strict that our official policies. As such I can not be considered standard or normal.
- Specific license is clearly there. Photographer chose the version and sculptor agreed. Kruusamägi (talk) 21:12, 7 October 2020 (UTC)
- Nat and I are also both OTRS agents. Looking at your OTRS work, it appears that you routinely process your own tickets (!!!), which are often (always?) forwarded and often not from the indicated author. This is not "standard or normal" and suggests your status needs review. That the system has a built-in "rejection" template for forwarded emails (otrswiki:Response:en-Forwarded Statement (Direct)) has already been pointed out to you. Эlcobbola talk 21:32, 7 October 2020 (UTC)
- I'm the only Estonian speaking OTRS agent. Who else should process them? You?
- Non-forwarded permissions are preferred, but it doesn't make them illegal, does it? Not to mention, that this sort of a newer development, it is rather vague (to put it softly) and I haven't noticed, that it is shared by that many people. As on legal matter that has close to 0 difference so that reasoning seems ridiculous.
- Spreading ideas such as the sculptor should give his sculptures under free licenses etc are so far off from the normal, that I have the same questions regarding some other OTRS agents here. Not understanding how FoP works is kind of a problem.
- As for the tickets I process (and I only do the Estonian ones) I know a significant % of people I change e-mails or have actually shared a lot more e-mails/messages with them prior to that correspondence. Including helping to upload the images or explaining why some stuff can't be uploaded in the first place (so almost everything that ends up at OTRS in Estonian is actually suitable, as presorting has already occurred). So with the ones who even got to OTRS I have often communicated via other means of communication. The reason is pretty simple: most people don't have a clue, that there is an OTRS system or how it works, so if they start to look about it, they will soon be in communication with me anyway (there is no-one else in Estonia, remember). And if I already exchange emails with them under my own email account, then it is utter nonsense to talk about how bad the forwarded emails are. In addition I am far better aware of where are the images coming from and if the person is who he says he is. But trusting OTRS agents is that difficult, then just say the system is broken.

- @Kruusamägi: They become useless when the forwarding user becomes inactive for any reason. How can we ask for further information if a dispute appears eg. in 20 years? Ankry (talk) 08:52, 8 October 2020 (UTC)
- Some e-mail accounts cease to exist in a few months after correspondence (people switching jobs, institutions merging or splitting, etc; I've seen that surpisingly lot). In 20 years' time, a lot of people there would be unresponsive (or maybe even long gone) anyway. But then again, if there hasn't been a single problem in 20 years, then what is the likelihood of ever having that beyond this timeframe? Virtually none. It seems more of a hypotetical problem than a real one. Kruusamägi (talk) 11:22, 8 October 2020 (UTC)

- Contacting the copyright holder using your own email is fine, but OTRS should have been cc'ed at every step, and the copyright holder should always cc'ed OTRS in their responses. That is the appropriate practice. But the core issue isn't that the permission was forwarded (which is still problematic). The problem is licensing. As I've stated above, and so has another experienced admin, in the case where freedom of panorama does not exist, the work depicted must be under an acceptable free licence and the copyright holder must specify, if a Creative Commons licence -- especially one with a share-alike component, the version of the licence in question. This is policy. --Ìch heiss Nat. Redd mìt mìr.🥨 01:51, 9 October 2020 (UTC)
- Well, I think this is not necessary that the sculpture itself is under a free license. This should be OK, if the sculpture author accepts that a particular DW of the sculpture is freely licensed together with the DW creator. This way, effectively, only the parts of the sculpture that are visible on the DW are freely licensed. Of course, making the sculpture freely licensed, is more convenient for us, but not for the sculptor whp may wish to exploit their copyright more selectively. Ankry (talk) 14:13, 10 October 2020 (UTC)
- User:Kruusamägi contacted me on Facebook and asked me to weigh in. It is certainly not necessary that the sculpture itself be under a free license. The point of requiring free licenses is to allow reuse. If person A creates a work and does not free license, and person B creates a derivative work where both person A and person B agree to a free license for the derivative work, clearly the derivative work is under free license: that is our concern. Similarly, if an architect in France, where there is no FOP for buildings, gives a license for a photo of his or her building, we don't demand that the building itself be free-licensed! - Jmabel ! talk 00:38, 11 October 2020 (UTC)
- @Jmabel: Even if I concede to your point, the problem is that Ticket:2020071910004071 is still insufficient. Unlike what was claimed, at no point did the sculptor provide such an agreement to a specific version of a licence in the ticket. On your point about FOP for buildings, I have never seen or heard of such a case on Commons -- if you could provide some clear examples, it would be much appreciated. Thank you. --Ìch heiss Nat.

- @Jmabel: Here's the rub -- This case differs from the others you've presented here as the copyright holders of the depicted made a clear and explicit statement of permission under a specific version of an acceptable free licence. The sculptor made no such such statement. In addition to the irregular nature of the ticket, Ticket:2020071910004071 is just plainly insufficient. Ìch heiss Nat.

- The sculptor made a very specific statement: he allows anyone to publish photos about his sculptures as long as photographer uses some version of CC SA-BY license. What is there to argue? Kruusamägi (talk) 02:41, 11 October 2020 (UTC)
- @Nat: You seem to be addressing me with regard to something I did not say. I am not on OTRS and I have no idea what particular evidence we have for this particular photo. My point is that we do not need any particular licensing situation for the underlying work from which this image derives. All we need is for whatever parties may have copyright interests in this image, directly or indirectly, to agree upon a license. You asked for examples about my point, I provided them.- Jmabel ! talk 02:44, 11 October 2020 (UTC)
- Addressing another point here: it is perfectly acceptable for someone with a copyright interest in a work to delegate precise licensing decisions to someone they trust. We have numerous OTRS tickets by which an artist or institutions has designated that a particular Commons account can be presumed to be acting on their behalf. - Jmabel ! talk 02:47, 11 October 2020 (UTC)
- @Jmabel: The examples that you've provided are cases where the copyright holders of the works depicted in the photos provided permissions under a specific version of a free licence per the tickets on their respective file description pages. Furthermore, the files are enumerated in those permissions. The case at hand is not the same.
- On the issue with the ticket, all we have is a forwarded thread with insufficient permission and an unprocessed ticket -- which Kruusamägi should not process as he is an involved party.
- Pinging @Krd, Ruthven, Sphilbrick for comment on how to proceed, as this is not only about permission itself, but also the process. --Ìch heiss Nat. Redd mìt mìr.🥨 03:25, 11 October 2020 (UTC)
- Permission is perfectly sufficient and the forwarded part is utterly irrelevant in the current case. You don't seem to be understanding how FoP related licensing works and I don't know how to explain that further. So I welcome getting some comments from uninvolved parties here. Kruusamägi (talk) 13:38, 11 October 2020 (UTC)
- It's not that we do not trust you Kruusamägi, but we tend to avoid forwarded permissions lately. Then, it's also something to be avoided to accept your own (forwarded) permission. What can be done now is to answer to that ticket ticket:2020071910004071, putting the copyright holder as recipient, asking them to confirm the permission to publish those photos of the monument under CC BY SA 4.0 license. They'll probably thing that we are stupid at Wikimedia, but we'll eventually have a confirmation on OTRS, being able to double check the sender's data.
- In the future, this procedure is perfectly legit, but please put OTRS in cc at every step (as Nat suggested), asking the copyright holder to answer to everybody. --Ruthven (msg) 17:21, 11 October 2020 (UTC)

- The sculptor made a very specific statement: he allows anyone to publish photos about his sculptures as long as photographer uses some version of CC SA-BY license. What is there to argue? Kruusamägi (talk) 02:41, 11 October 2020 (UTC)
- Not so simple. There are a few problems regarding that.
- 1) He has had a rather long career and during that he has made many sculptures. Some of them rather notable. Naturally, we have more images than just those few photos of his sculptures here on Commons. And yes, surprise-surprise: CC SA-BY 2.0, 3.0, and 4.0 have all been used as licenses for the images about his sculptures in Commons. And it might make sense to expect that people take photos of those monuments in the future as well, and may want to publish them under versions 5.0 or 6.0, that might come into existence one day. So there is clearly a need to have a version independent permission unless we want to start deleting this stuff. And even that specific sculpture is in the middle of Tallinn on one of the busiest public parks and that depicts a person we did put on our money when we still had Estonian kroons. So believe me, there are many photos even about that specific subject and it makes a lot of sense to make people's lives as easy as possible regarding on what they can do with the images. So the question is wider.
- 2) According to the law everything is perfectly suitable and that is valid permission. Different demands made here are not what is needed by the law and I fail to see how Commons policies change that, as I've seen none that indicate that our polices are that much more strict than the law on this specific question.
- 3) When someone sends me an e-mail that states he has talked to the person x, and that person x agrees to y, or when he/she forwards me the letter from person x regarding statement y, then we are clearly talking about forwarded e-mails that should be approached with caution. When I'm changing e-mails directly with person x regarding permission y, then this a very different story. So please someone explain to me why that is needed? Like where specifically is the problem? Since when that change was made are where might I read about that? In Estonia we have far more sophisticated methods of both identification and legal agreements that are almost daily used by virtually everyone. I can easily go there as well. Just as for mere letters, that OTRS collects, then no distinction is made. So I'd like to be super clear on what specifically is needed and why as this is something alien in Estonia.
- You may also notice, that I already sent 7 e-mails to him and from the first e-mail from me to the final answer by him, it took two and a half months. So it isn't that simple, than just sending an e-mail. He doesn't even seem to check his e-mails more than once a month. And when there are clearly people here, that demand very different kind of permission, then I'm not jumping on joy to start pestering that old man once again at a moment when there isn't even a clear understanding of how that permission should look like. This last thing seems like a thing we should first agree on. Are these people now really understanding why that permission is worded like that and do they understand that this is legally ok thing? Kruusamägi (talk) 20:18, 11 October 2020 (UTC)
- @Kruusamägi: We have no deadline and there is no rush. If it takes two, three months or longer, so be it. As I've stated in other discussions, if forward-compatibility is an issue, then the sculptor should specify that they authorise photos of their works under CC-BY-SA versions 2.0 and any later version released by Creative Commons. (e.g. "I, [name], the creator and sole copyright holder of [Statue A], hereby authorise all photographs of [Statue A] to be licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution ShareAlike license, versions 2.0, 2.5, 3.0, 4.0 and any later version released by Creative Commons" or the eventual Estonian translation of such a statement). Such a statement would cover the specificity required and allow photos to be released under different versions of the licence. --Ìch heiss Nat. Redd mìt mìr.🥨 16:27, 12 October 2020 (UTC)
- He has made many sculptures. That is also why emails contained a list of his creations and he stated that images of all of his creations could be freely shared [under whatever version of CC SA-BY license the photographer may choose]. So this [Statue A] option is problematic.
- In here, I'd like to be sure, that the next e-mail sent would solve all the loose ends. That is: I don't want to pester the man with a bunch of e-mails unless I'm sure we have an agreement on what is the preferred solution. Like should it list all the works (works listed on appendage 1) or may it be more ambigious (of my sculptures), that could also cover the future works he may produce [like it is in the current form].
- What is the best solution in this specific case is also rather important for the reason, that there are plenty of sculptors and architects alive today in Estonia, who can grant a similar permission. It is not clear on when the FoP situation in Estonia could change (we have tried to deal with that topic for years, but finally gave up, as all updates to the copyright law have failed and lawmakers have decided to just look and wait whatever will EU request). So it is impossible to predict when that might change (a year, 10 years, never?). Therefore it makes sense to collect those permissions in large numbers. And that is an important precedent. Kruusamägi (talk) 18:00, 12 October 2020 (UTC)
- @Kruusamägi: The issue (and if I wasn't clear before, I apologise) is that specificity is required -- especially, regarding the version of the licence. The following should address your concerns:
“ | I, [name], the creator and sole copyright holder of the following:
hereby authorise any and all photographs of all my [works/sculptures/publicly displayed works/etc.], including, but not limited to, those enumerated, to be licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution ShareAlike license, versions 2.0, 2.5, 3.0, 4.0 and any later version released by Creative Commons |
” |
- Thoughts? --Ìch heiss Nat. Redd mìt mìr.🥨 18:30, 12 October 2020 (UTC)
- I don't see how that is any way more specific on the license version, but it that allows to move forward with this, then I'll write to him tomorrow. I assume I can at least skip the sculptures, that are in the Nederlands and in Germany. Kruusamägi (talk) 00:14, 13 October 2020 (UTC)
- I have a counterproposal. The permission could read like this: "I permit the two-dimensional reproduction and the public communication of such copies of all works created by me.". This is modelled on what's permitted under German FOP paragraph (cited here). The permission can be more restrictive if necessary, e.g. concern only works permanently located in places open to public, or concern only exteriors. Instead of "all works created by me" it can list individual works, but I don't see a good reason to require the latter, especially if it'd say "not limited to those enumerated" anyway (as suggested above), and since quantifier "all" is also explicit.
- Other kind of permission suggested above ("authorise all photographs of my work under some CC license") is problematic. First of all, an author can license only their own work (their own rights to it). Sculptor can endorse the use of some CC license by photographer, but what's the point of it really? Photographer can license their work under some CC license regardless and if incorporated material is unfree then the license is just applicable to certain extent (see CC FAQ). Instead, what we are (or should be) explicitly interested in is the sculptor's right to reproduce their work. CC license, designed for releasing the entire work, is a poor instrument to license this particular right. Also, as already mentioned to Nat earlier in their user talk, sculptor neither has to license their work under free license, we don't require this for works that are in countries where there is freedom of panorama. Pikne 09:07, 13 October 2020 (UTC)
- @Pikne: No. Firstly, the usage of the passive voice is an issue. Secondly, that statement does not explicitly allow the derivative to be licenced under a free licence. In the absence of freedom of panorama, this is required. --Ìch heiss Nat. Redd mìt mìr.🥨 13:49, 13 October 2020 (UTC)
- I don't object grammar changes as long as it doesn't change meaning. Based on what you claim that in the absence of freedom of panorama such statement is required and otherwise it isn't? Sorry, but this makes no sense. Neither does German FOP paragraph (mentioned above) explicitly allow the derivative to be licensed under a free license. My reading of COM:FOP is that isn't an issue, at least as long as derivation (reproduction) by appropriate means is considered. Pikne 15:41, 13 October 2020 (UTC)
- In the absence of FOP, policy requires that the author of a derivative work seek permission from the author of the work depicted to place the derivative work under a free licence. Ìch heiss Nat. Redd mìt mìr.🥨 23:41, 13 October 2020 (UTC)
- You refer to text on this drawing, right? It does not say what you claim above ("explicitly allow the derivative to be licensed under a free licence"). The only way to read this without contradicting how freedom of panorama is actually treated on Commons seems to be as follows: you need original author's permission to upload your work to Commons, where in any case you need to put your work under free license. Different interpretation (emphasis on free license) contradicts explanation in CC FAQ (already referred above), per which you actually can incorporate unfree work in your work and still put your work under free license (you just can't upload it to Commons in most cases), and as already described above, it contradicts how Commons treats buildings/sculptures in countries where there is freedom of panorama. This drawing text should probably be corrected so that it was less confusing.
- To further clarify, freedom of panorama as a copyright exception limits derivation in any case and by definition. Under freedom of panorama you generally can create two-dimensional derivative works, which is considered enough to make the exception applicable in Commons, but you generally can't create and publish, say, another sculpture based on photographs of original sculpture. Supposedly you can argue that the latter kind of derivation needs to be allowed too in order to consider photographs as "really free", but this is not the current stance of Commons (otherwise large part of images of building/sculptures simply weren't there). COM:FOP#Further derivative works covers some aspects of the specificity of FOP-related derivation, too, and COM:L under "Scope of licensing" also makes a brief mention to "some rights" the architect may hold.
- By the way, above I raised questions on what it means if sculptor in their permission simply endorses photographer's copyright statement, without saying anything explicit about their own rights. Why do you overlook this? Pikne 08:21, 14 October 2020 (UTC)
- The letter was sent and this is based on what Pikne proposed. Kruusamägi (talk) 18:28, 18 October 2020 (UTC)
- @Pikne: Let's look at your proposed statement, especially now that Kruusamägi has rushed into sending it:
- "two-dimensional" is undefined in this statement. This is problematic.
- it lacks the operative word 'hereby'. This is something minor.
- the right of distribution is notably absent. Distribution ≠ public communication. This is hugely problematic.
- 'I' is left undefined (i.e. I, [name], ...) This is something minor.
- "... of all works created by me" is poor phrasing, esp when "... of all my works" or "... of my works" will do. This is something minor.
- If truly based on language used in German law, the permission would read "I, [sculptor's name], hereby permit the reproduction, by painting, drawing, photography or cinematography, of all my works, and the distribution and the public communication of such copies." Or, if using language in American law, it would read "I, [scuptor's name], hereby permit the making, distributing, or public display of pictures, paintings, photographs, or other pictorial representations of my works."
- If the sculptor responds with your proposed statement, on point 3. alone, it would be insufficient permission for Commons. As such, I will continue to strongly oppose undeletion until such time as permission is sufficient -- and determined or confirmed to be so by an uninvolved OTRS agent. --Ìch heiss Nat. Redd mìt mìr.🥨 05:38, 25 October 2020 (UTC)
- Thanks for these improved permission text wordings. I think providing one of these as an example on COM:FOP would be very helpful.
- Though, my impression is that example permissions are just examples and other freely worded text does as well as long as some necessary components are there. It's not clear to me that my original text should be necessarily rejected if it was already used in this particular case.
- In my original text regretfully I did overlook word "distribute" that under German law supposedly is somehow different from "communicate [such] copies". But then again, as part of freely worded text, what's the significant difference between the two phrases under Commons licensing policy? (Also, maybe Kruusamägi worded it so that it easily translates back into English as "distribute".) As for "two-dimensional", it seems to be pretty much what you list, or does "two-dimensional" include something that it explicitly shouldn't in our case? My assumption is that licensor's name would be appended to the letter anyway and so I omitted it above. Similarly, it can say "hereby", but it's probably easy to consider it as an unnecessary legal speak as well. Pikne 08:42, 25 October 2020 (UTC)
- @Pikne: 'hereby' is not unnecessary legal speak, but a crucial part of such texts. Permissions must be declarative, especially if they are granting a licence. And as such, permission must clearly name the person granting, and such text must used hereby to signal that the permission is in force. "two-dimensional" is too ambiguous and there is a reason most legislation avoid such terms, and enumerate the means and conditions under which an individual may create copies. Any licence, which this is, must be precise, clear, and explicit.
- Furthermore, the difference between the right of distribution and the right of public communication also exists in Estonian law. --Ìch heiss Nat. Redd mìt mìr.🥨 13:32, 25 October 2020 (UTC)
- So here illegible english legalese is relevant and essential, bur a few chapters down you (as in you admins, not you personally) declare the incompatibility of data scrounges like facebook with free licences OK? I could not care less but about such nitpicking, if it's fine in estonian, it's fine, english is no requirement for en international project. Grüße vom Sänger ♫ (talk) 13:51, 25 October 2020 (UTC)
- @Sänger: It is not irrelevent legalese. Furthermore, both statements are significantly insufficient in any language. And your comment here fails to add anything substantive to this discussion. --Ìch heiss Nat. Redd mìt mìr.🥨 22:58, 25 October 2020 (UTC)
- What we have here are non-native English speakers who have not studied law and we are discussing if "two-dimensional" is too ambiguous or if "hereby" is a must? It really raises the question on what is the role of OTRS? To sign legal agreements or do confirm that everything is ok with permissions? If the former, then I don't see how that is not an agreed permission. If the latter, then I don't understand why is this legal-speak deemed essential.
- As long as there are no agreed examples of texts for that kind of permissions that should be used (and only them), then it is especially sketchy to demand one. We clearly already have permission (and when the sculptor answers to the more recent letter, then we have new permission and this time in English). For how many times should he reply? Or may I need to point out that prior to this permission there is a long list of letters that explains what is FoP (and what the lack of it in Estonia means to him), what are CC SA-BY licenses, and what is being asked from him? After all of that he gives his permission, and now we are still arguing if that was ok or not. Seriously? It is not that we don't understand what is being allowed. We are just arguing on if that sounds official enough. Kruusamägi (talk) 23:59, 26 October 2020 (UTC)
- @Kruusamägi: The role of OTRS is confirm permission that are valid and sufficient. Both the statement in the forwarded email and the proposed statement that you so hastily sent are insufficient as I've explained over and over again. --Ìch heiss Nat. Redd mìt mìr.🥨 17:28, 27 October 2020 (UTC)
- @Kruusamägi: Let me state once again why both permission statements are insufficient, because clearly I need to do so again:
- The first statement is insufficient because no specific version of the CC-BY-SA licence was enumerated. This is a must. If all versions -- including future versions -- are acceptable, then all extant versions must be enumerated in the permission with a clause that allows for future versions. But this is moot as a topic.
- The second proposed statement is insufficient because it only includes the right of reproduction and the right of public communication, but notably the right of distribution is missing (the inclusion of the right of modification would have been ideal, but that is besides the point). All three are key to FoP. And all three concepts exist in Estonian law. Lacking the right of distribution in the permission means that the proposed statement is wholly insufficient for Commons. --Ìch heiss Nat. Redd mìt mìr.🥨 20:30, 27 October 2020 (UTC)
- Well, Commons licensing policy apparently cares only about "distribution", without specifying types of publication and/or distribution that some jurisdiction may or may not hold. As said, I only intended to model this freely worded permission text on German paragraph, I didn't intend to use this exact paragraph as it isn't strictly relevant in other jurisdictions anyway. Also different jurisdictions don't use word "communicate" in exactly the same sense. For example Estonian law alone has the right of communication that covers certain kind of distribution (apart from distribution in strict sense) and it also more broadly covers communicating works to public. Therefore I think that if permitting just communication (without making distinction between types of distribution) in common language means something significantly different than just permitting distribution in broad sense, then this is due to overinterpretation of the word. It seems in this manner you can always push it further and wonder about some unnamed and unsuitable limitations. Please notice that FOP paragraphs mentioned above themselves, despite saying both communicate and distribute under these particular jurisdictions, are very brief compared to CC licenses, and yet we live with these.
- I don't argue that permission needs to be clear and explicit. It's just worth remembering that we are not lawyers here and we rather try to make ourselves clear and explicit in common language, rather than solve legal cases under particular jurisdiction. Also, not naming the author in sentence does not necessarily mean that it isn't clear who the I is. As for hereby, I realise it's common in such statements, but it probably doesn't hold as strict and as universal meaning that you suggest, e.g. see this commentary.
- That said, despite seeing little reason to reject permission due to "distribution" question, I still don't argue that Nat's last permission wordings (based on German and American law) are better as example permissions. Pikne 10:13, 28 October 2020 (UTC)
- As I've stated, the right of public communication and the right of distribution are distinct legal concepts. Commons licensing policy actually cares about use, study, reproduction, distribution, commercial useand non-revocability and perpetuity of a licence, and and as such set the following conditions: Republication and distribution must be allowed. Publication of derivative work must be allowed. Commercial use of the work must be allowed. The license must be perpetual (non-expiring) and non-revocable. It also clear states that simply writing that "the material may be used freely by anyone" or similar isn't sufficient. The lack of an explicit right of distribution means that the proposed statement is wholly insufficient for Commons. --Ìch heiss Nat. Redd mìt mìr.🥨 20:00, 28 October 2020 (UTC)
- I'm familiar with all that and I'm pretty sure I didn't say anything that suggests otherwise. The only relevant part of your quote seems to be what I already quoted above: "distribution [must be allowed]". I see no reason to think that this "distribution" in COM:L follows some strict legal definition (e.g. "transfer of the right of ownership in a work or copies /../ including /.../, excluding /.../" from Estonian law) rather than generic sense "transfer, communicate, hand over etc." Permission text in question explicitly includes distribution (communication) in generic sense. COM:L doesn't say anything specifically about "communication" (as in right of communication in Estonian law, or some other copyright related sense from the same or different law). That's why it's hard to see why you push this distribution and communication distinction. Pikne 08:39, 29 October 2020 (UTC)
- As I've stated, the proposed statement clearly states public communication which has a distinct meaning under the law. And it does not have the same meaning as distribution. If the text only stated 'communication', that is one thing. but it doesn't. The proposed statement clearly uses terms and concepts that are defined in copyright legislation, and, as such, generic meanings just don't fly here. I like to note that the sculptor was asked to send in their reply the English text. As I've repeated over and over again, and it appears that it needs to be repeated, the proposed statement is insufficient for Commons as, among other things, the right of distribution is notably and completely absent -- public communication does not equal or equate to distribution, and no matter which way it is rejiggered, it will not. --Ìch heiss Nat. Redd mìt mìr.🥨 14:50, 29 October 2020 (UTC)
- And as I've stated, Estonian law has the right of communication (not public communication) that is distinct from the right of distribution (strict sense), and apart from that it covers communication of a work to the public. The latter can be done by exercising both the right of communication and distribution. As such, in legals terms, public communication is more broad than distribution. Regardless whether you'd follow that or different and contradicting legal definitions from some other law, there is little reason to think that it was intended or necessary to apply any of these strict definitions here. COM:L is not explicit on which strict legal definition of "distribution" it uses and yet for an unknown reason you pretend that it does, as if in common language it didn't cover communication, or the other way around.
- Moreover, FOP paragraphs of several countries, considered to have sufficient copyright exception on Commons, actually do say only communication, and no distribution, e.g. see COM:FOP Belgium, COM:FOP Malta, COM:FOP Algeria. Yet, as with claiming that sculpture itself needs to be put under free license (hopefully we are past this now), again you come up with more restrictive approach than is supported by actual practice. Pikne 09:13, 3 November 2020 (UTC)
- No. The practice here, as proven by the examples above, is that the copyright holder of works depicted provides specific consent to derivative works under a specific version of a specific free licence. We do not have that here. Even if I concede to your points on distribution and communication (which I don't), the permission is still insufficient (and as a side note, European law does make a distinction). The proposed permission that lacks any definition of two-dimensional -- I do not argue for an exhaustive list here, but some definition or enumeration is necessary (The American example is a good example of this). --Ìch heiss Nat. Redd mìt mìr.🥨 04:39, 4 November 2020 (UTC)
- I think we are past the question of derivation. More relevant examples above and relevant explanation on COM:FOP prove that the actual practice and approach to FOP-related derivation is not what you suggest. As for specific version, we are most likely past that too. I never suggested that original permission text mentioning versionless CC license was sufficient, and probably Kruusamägi no longer does either since new letter was sent.
- Despite you keep suggesting so, I did not claim once that distribution-communication distinction doesn't exist in at least some law. In fact, contrarily I even showed that it's much more complicated under different laws. However, relevance of this distinction to Commons licensing policy and given freely worded permission text hasn't been shown. In last comment I also refer to FOP paragraphs of several other countries, in which this distinction, the way you serve it, is actually considered unimportant on Commons.
- As already implied above, I don't object enumeration of examples for two-dimensional. However, you haven't showed based on which you claim that it's actually necessary and enough reason to reject particular permission that is freely worded and doesn't intend to use particular law paragraph. Above I asked if two-dimensional includes something that it explicitly shouldn't on Common or what otherwise is the actual problem, but so far you have overlooked this.
- I think your tone is problematic. Your noes are rather blunt and you persistently imply that your counterpart said something which they didn't. This really doesn't help us make progress in this question. Pikne 09:24, 4 November 2020 (UTC)
- At no point did I imply. What I am pointing out is the practice that we have here. As Jmabel is not an OTRS agent, they do not have the full picture. In those example provided by Jmabel, while they are correct that the copyright holders of the works depicted do not waive rights to the underlying works, they, the copyright holders of the works depicted, did provide specific consents to derivative works (photos of their own work) under a specific version of a specific licence. That is the practice. What we have here is essentially something that is novel and has terms that are undefined. Additionally, is the licence revocable? Per contract law, as there are no clauses that prevent permission from being withdrawn, yes, the proposed permission is revocable -- non-revocability is a core requirement of COM:L. This adds to the insufficient nature of the proposed permission.
- On tonality, (1) this is irrelevant to the discussion at hand, and (2) mentioning or arguing it will not help the discussion move forward. --Ìch heiss Nat. Redd mìt mìr.🥨 16:38, 4 November 2020 (UTC)
- By more relevant examples I was referring to images of all modern sculptures and architectural works in countries where there is freedom of panorama. I repeat, if FOP exception is used on Commons, then the depicted work itself usually isn't under free license. I did not say anyting about Jmabel's example above. The latter apparently was about an individual precedent for a work in country that has no freedom of panorama, and as such this example indeed was less solid and less relevant.
- As for non-recoverability, this is expected per COM:L and licenses that explicitly declare it are indeed preferred on Commons. However, as you probably very well know, actual practise is to accept licenses that don't declare it, too, take for example {{PD-self}}. Not to mention, FOP exception in any law can be always revoked, which would make all relevant images on Commons unfree. In that regard individual permission, modelled after some FOP paragraph, is probably more solid as it would stay in place even if law changes.
- It is rather difficult to see what really is your goal in this discussion as you focus on inventing all sorts of restrictions that are backed by neither Commons policies nor actual practise. Again and again, once you probably realise your words for the most part didn't hold, you invent something new (now the non-recoverability question). Also, I tried to put it mildly when I said that you imply. Among else, you repeatedly claim things that neither me nor anyone else above argued, like the case of certain words being legal terms, as if I was too ignorant and didn't know about it at the beginning of the discussion (while the actual question was about the relevance of your claim). The same way you quote six sentences from COM:L, apparently to show that you argue with ignorant people who don't even know the basics, while only one word in your quote (word that I had already quoted earlier) was actually relevant to prior discussion. Despite the fact that you are speaking to someone who has also dealt with on-wiki copyright matters for years. And yes, the latter has nothing to do with the subject matter of discussion. I'm only asking you to be respectful to your counterparts (in any discussion) and reply to the point.
- At this point it may be helpful if someone else could also comment on the latest permission text wordings: one that Kruusamägi last sent, and also ones that Nat phrased based on German and American law, of which one could be used in COM:FOP as an example for future enquiries. Pikne 08:55, 5 November 2020 (UTC)
- There is a distinction between legislation and a licence. The revocability of legislation is not considered under COM:L but it is for licensing. And no, I am not inventing restrictions. Furthermore, under U.S. law, granting work into the public domain is an irrevocable act. --Ìch heiss Nat. Redd mìt mìr.🥨 13:35, 5 November 2020 (UTC)
- There is also a substantial difference between an irrevocable declaration of waiving one's rights and one granting a licence. Ìch heiss Nat. Redd mìt mìr.🥨 16:09, 5 November 2020 (UTC)
- This copyright tag isn't solely for granting work into the public domain (note the "in some countries..." part). Also it isn't the only accepted license that doesn't explicitly declare irrevocability, e.g. there's {{Copyrighted free use}}.
- But very well, concerning future permission request, would it be more satisfactory if last permission texts that you phrased above said "hereby irrevocably permit" instead of "hereby permit"? Pikne 11:42, 6 November 2020 (UTC)
- Yes, "hereby irrevocably permit" or something along those lines would satisfy the irrevocability requirement for licences. --Ìch heiss Nat. Redd mìt mìr.🥨 04:47, 7 November 2020 (UTC)
- It would be better with the additional of another clause to the permission (e.g. "I, [sculptor's name], hereby permit the reproduction, by painting, drawing, photography, cinematography, or other pictorial or two-dimensional composition, of all my works, and the distribution and the public communication of such copies. (or I, [scuptor's name], hereby permit the making, distributing, or public display of pictures, paintings, photographs, or other pictorial representations of my works.) This permission is worldwide, royalty-free, non-exclusive, irrevocable, and perpetual."), but, as I've stated, "hereby irrevocably permit" would satisfy the irrevocability requirement for licences. Ìch heiss Nat. Redd mìt mìr.🥨 01:31, 11 November 2020 (UTC)
- Copyright acts under FOP exception don't have such "worldwide, royalty-free, ..." clause, and we don't consider it necessary there. So I rather wouldn't overcomplicate things for an individual permission either. Pikne 11:41, 11 November 2020 (UTC)
- FYI, the second clause above is just an example. --Ìch heiss Nat. Redd mìt mìr.🥨 17:50, 11 November 2020 (UTC)

While the original author died less than 70 years ago, the image was licensed to the Bain News Agency, the collection is now owned by the Library of Congress and they released it under their license. The deleted copy of the image resides in England, the kept copies reside in the US at the LIbrary of Congress. All copies have to stay, or all copies have to be deleted. See: Category:Stanley Baldwin (Stoneman) for the copies released by the Library of Congress. Copyright law is determined by the image, not where a physical copy of the image resides.--RAN (talk) 16:37, 8 November 2020 (UTC)
- @Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ): You are definitely right that copyright is the same for all copies. However, "keeping consistency" is not a valid reason for undeletion. In order to undelete the photo and to know its copyright status for regards Commons policies, we need to know its initial publication country and initial publication date. While this may be as well UK as US (the photographer's country of origin as well as the place where the negative/the photo prints are hosted are irrelevant for copyright). Without this information we should probably apply COM:PCP. However, UDR is not the right venue for deletion discussion. Ankry (talk) 21:23, 8 November 2020 (UTC)
- "Keeping consistency" = "copyright is the same for all copies" The issue is whether to restore the deleted copy or delete all copies of images by Stoneman. --RAN (talk) 23:19, 8 November 2020 (UTC)
- Exactly. But the right venue to discuss this is rather VP or a DR, not here. Mainly due to small number of users active here. My personal opinion is that we should delete all of them per COM:PCP. But this is an opinion only. Ankry (talk) 15:25, 9 November 2020 (UTC)
- UDR seems reasonable, if we are keeping the others -- we should restore/keep this by the same rationale the others are kept by. If we decline the UDR, we should start a DR for the others (and restore this one, if the others are kept at the end). Seems like the LoC has a glass negative, while the British copies are bromide prints (or postcards). But it's a British author... hrm. Obviously, all versions are fine in the U.S., so could be put on en-wiki either way. If we consider them simultaneously published, the U.S. would probably be the country of origin. I'm a bit curious on how Bain got the glass negative -- was that the original, or was it made from a positive print, or what. If Bain merely licensed the images from Stoneman, they would not own the copyright enough to release it. But if Stoneman was under contract to them, and gave them the original negatives, then Bain likely did own copyright, and PD-Bain should cover the British copies too. Stoneman was running his own company, though. Normally when in doubt, I would usually follow where the original negative is, but it does seem odd in this case. Carl Lindberg (talk) 04:32, 9 November 2020 (UTC)
- @Clindberg: If there is a clear decision to keep the others, then yes, we can take an UDR decision basing on it. The most likely, the image is PD in US and (C) in UK, so the clue is: what is the country of origin and how to apply the Commons policy regarding PD status in the country of origin. Ankry (talk) 15:25, 9 November 2020 (UTC)
- If it was simultaneously published in the U.S., the U.S. would be the country of origin. Doubt we can show that, though. The other path is if Bain actually acquired copyright, in which case they released it to the public domain (i.e. it's not just PD by age, but {{PD-Bain}}). Normally I'd say the UK was the country of origin, expiring in 2029, but I'm wondering how Bain got a glass negative of it, if they don't own the copyright.

OpposeYes, the design is historic[8], but the current file is a restoration of the historic design. Is this a photo? If yes, who took it? You can't transfer files from the web[9] to Commons and claim PD. 4nn1l2 (talk) 14:38, 11 November 2020 (UTC)- @4nn1l2: If the restored work is copyrighted, then all its photos should be deleted due to no FOP in Iran. If the original work is PD and it is a 2D work, then per {{PD-Art}} it is irrelevant who took its photo. This is the same case as we can host scans of PD books or old PD postcards whoever scannced them. Ankry (talk) 14:45, 11 November 2020 (UTC)
- Yes, it is indeed a 2-D photo. I may have made a mistake. I struck my oppose vote. But the fact that a relatively large and retouched photo is uploaded to Commons while the source they provide is just a low-quality photo on a webpage is not a practise that I would support. According to the EXIF data, the author is Saeed Mohamadi, which has nothing to do with User:Mpmaedeh [Maedeh is a Iranian female name] or User:Baratiiman [Iman Barati; a proper Iranian name]. I still have my doubts, but defer to other colleagues. 4nn1l2 (talk) 15:05, 11 November 2020 (UTC)
- (Edit conflict) Well, I think I also misunderstood your initial doubts: that is not the image on the gate being restored, but a photo of the image from the gate might be creatively post-processed (colours are different, this image contains more sharp details than the original photo). It is not obvious whether the image originates from a photo of the gate or from another work based on it. I also refrain from my earlier (supporting) opinion. We need a third one, I think. @Baratiiman: in order to consider it @D copy of 2D work we might need access to the original photo the image was extracted from. If this was semi-automated post-processing, the image is OK. If it was manually modified this might be considered a new work, not a 2D copy. Ankry (talk) 15:36, 11 November 2020 (UTC)

- @Ankry: Let me learn sth from this thread. Let's say the tilework is about 20 m above the ground. Doesn't the photographer earn a copyright for choosing a proper angle? In other words, is this indeed a 2D copy? In August, I asked a question on the German VP (Commons:Forum/Archiv/2020/August#Arabic handwritings of Goethe) and they told me that those photos are not proper 2D reproductions. How are these situations different? 4nn1l2 (talk) 15:25, 11 November 2020 (UTC)

So I was messing around with oviraptorid articles on the English Wikipedia and realized this. The deletion of this file is heavily unjustified and makes no sense as we are talking about an open access paper released under a CC-BY-4.0, license, which permits unrestriced use as long as credit is given, something that, of course, was included in the file description.

画像削除解除してください。二つの写真は、どちらの写真も自身で撮影した写真ですので消される理由には該当しません。 --Shouhei Sato 000 (talk) 08:20, 26 November 2020 (UTC)
- @Shouhei Sato 000: You assert to be the photographer, however, the files, while large, are missing their EXIF metadata or state that they were processed in photoshop but key information is still missing. That being said, whether you are the photographer is irrelevant as the architectural models depicted in the photos may be copyrighted. Please advise who is the architect or creator of the architectural models depicted. Thank you for your understanding. --Ìch heiss Nat. Redd mìt mìr.🥨 15:43, 26 November 2020 (UTC)

I have asked for a photo personally from the organization (Romanian Democratic Turkish Union) the subject represents and they sent me this photo with permissions. ConstantaEdits (talk) 12:19, 28 November 2020 (UTC)
- Oppose Permission for you to claim copyright? Permisson for you to request to be credited when the photo is used? Thuresson (talk) 13:56, 28 November 2020 (UTC)
@Thuresson yes, in the e-mail it was stated I have complete rights to use this photo as it is a press release photo, I have also told them it will be uploaded to commons and they agreed. However being an identifiable person I cannot be credited correct?
- Oppose - Previously published images require COM:OTRS evidence of permission. Although thus moot: the request implicitly acknowledges this is not the uploader's own work, yet they'd previously claimed it was. Why, given this failure to represent authorship truthfully, should we now find this assertion credible? (The "by" in the purported "cc-by-sa-4.0" license, by the way, means attribution is required; the license was breached from the moment of upload. What does this too say about credibility?)
