Deletion request
Good advice, thank you. I trust you will help in making the proper determination at Commons:Deletion requests/File:Darshan.jpg regarding who the photographer is and whether the photographer has released permission by a free-use license. Cirt (talk) 10:08, 3 December 2009 (UTC)

Hi.
I see you have closed Commons:Deletion requests/File:File-Erich Schenk erhält 1969 die Ehrendoktorwürde 2.jpg earlier today... But the image is still here? -- Jokes Free4Me (talk) 19:04, 4 December 2009 (UTC)
- Sorry, I must have stepped afk and forgot about it at the time. Done. Killiondude (talk) 19:14, 4 December 2009 (UTC)
Hi.
Please, if you perform mass deletion requests such as the one on the rumanian parlament, it would be great if you stepped by the deletion log to comment and/or consider arguments there. Commons:Deletion requests/2009/12/04 has, at least for some entries, opposing arguments. --PaterMcFly (talk) 10:26, 6 December 2009 (UTC)

hi;
you deleted this:

but didn't close the "discussion"?
also; it appears now that proper procedures were not followed in the deletion nom...

- Please see Commons:Undeletion requests/Current requests#File:Palace of Parliament - Bucharest - Romania.jpg as well thanks. IMO some of the deletions are questionable even if you take a strict line on FOP.--Nilfanion (talk) 14:18, 6 December 2009 (UTC)

File:TraianBasescu.jpg
Hello! Can you send an OTRS ticket for File:TraianBasescu.jpg image? Thanks.--Ionutzmovie (talk) 16:39, 9 December 2009 (UTC)
- Hi! I'm not sure what you're asking me to do. Do you want me to send the president a message asking him to release the photo in a free license? I'm not sure how much good that will do. Or are you asking me to check on an OTRS ticket? Sorry, I just don't understand. Killiondude (talk) 18:12, 9 December 2009 (UTC)
Deletion
Could you tell me why you delted File:Aussicht vom Schloss Dottenwil.jpg. Thank you --Nachcommonsverschieber (talk) 18:43, 9 December 2009 (UTC)
- Hi! It was because it didn't have a license for the file. We require all files to have a license. It was marked for over 7 days as needing a license before deletion, per Commons policy. Sorry for any confusion. Killiondude (talk) 18:50, 9 December 2009 (UTC)
Please, can you tell me what's happenned with this picture: File:EquipoOrkosCampeon2009.jpg. Its author is my friend, and also appears in the picture. We need this picture. Sincerely, --Cpjaimes (talk) 09:53, 15 December 2009 (UTC)
- Hi! It was deleted because there was no indication that your friend gave permission to license it freely. We need him or her to email OTRS at permissions-commonswikimedia.org, saying that they own the copyright to the file and they agree to release it under a specific free license. They need to provide a link to the deleted file's URL in the email, and once it is processed it can be undeleted. Killiondude (talk) 17:05, 15 December 2009 (UTC)

Files still awaiting OTRS confirmation
Hello, Killiondude. The file(s) listed below have been marked with {{OTRS received}}, but there has been no complete confirmation of its permission status in the last 30 days. From what I'm able to tell, you were the person who added this template. Would you mind taking a look at this again? If confirmation cannot be found, this file should probably be marked for deletion. This should be the only notification you will receive regarding this image, so long as the comment I added to the image description page is not altered. Thanks! HersfoldOTRSBot(talk/opt out) 09:32, 12 December 2009 (UTC)
If you are not an OTRS volunteer or did not add the "received" template to this file, it's possible I made a mistake identifying the correct user. I look for the most recent diff where the template was added, so if you reverted an edit where this template was removed, I can't tell the difference. If this is the case, please let my operator know at w:en:User talk:Hersfold. Sorry for the inconvenience!
The file(s) in question are:
I got the notice on these:
But it seems you looked at the permission :-) --MGA73 (talk) 11:10, 13 December 2009 (UTC)
- Yes, I deleted those before because there was no permission for a long time, and you restored them shortly after. There hasn't been any OTRS activity for them since. Killiondude (talk) 20:18, 13 December 2009 (UTC)
- Really? Hm.. Well if user did not answer then they should probably be deleted again. --MGA73 (talk) 21:46, 13 December 2009 (UTC)
Deletion of File:Fiberlines1 19991.pdf
On Nov 6th you deleted the PDF file ”Fiberlines, Kvaerner Pulping Publication” nr 1 1999. I DO have the permission to publish this one so please inform me then what is needed in order to keep it at wikipedia commons. Thought I did the right thing. Thanks. --Enricokamasa (talk) 07:03, 14 December 2009 (UTC)
- Hi! I think you're referring to File:Fiberlines1 19991.pdf. The copyright owner needs to email OTRS at permissions-commonswikimedia.org, stating that they own the copyright to that file and agree to license it with a free license. More info about what needs to be done in said email is in the link to OTRS I provided in the last sentence. Once it is processed, the file can be undeleted. Let me know if you have any further questions. Killiondude (talk) 03:00, 15 December 2009 (UTC)
Deletion of File:ChiaraLubich.jpg
Hi, just a quick question (no offense or anything, I wasn't the uploader of the file): what is the reason for the deletion of this file? Why did the permission expire? Thx, Sudika (talk) 06:15, 15 December 2009 (UTC)
- The permission didn't "expire", really. :-) There was never any permission received for the file, which Tineye showed came from www.focolares.org.ar. Killiondude (talk) 06:20, 15 December 2009 (UTC)
deletion of File:ELG_webcam_daylight_capture_at_09-09-13_08-00-00-32.png
Hi, you have just deleted File:ELG_webcam_daylight_capture_at_09-09-13_08-00-00-32.png with the reason "No permission since 28 November 2009". That image required no permission and had the template

Several deletions
hello, you have just deleted File:Storfosna_i_Orland.JPG, File:Garten_i_Orland.JPG and File:Krakvag_i_Orland.JPG, with the given reason No permission since 21 November 2009. As far as i remember, all of these had fair licences, and furthermore, I was not given any notice about their possible fate.
Would you please undelete them, and give me an opportunity to submit a licence that could be acceptable to you. --Morten Haugen (talk) 06:36, 15 December 2009 (UTC)
- Sure, I just undeleted. I'm sorry that the person who added the "no permission" templates didn't warn you. Sometimes it is because popups are blocked in some browsers when tagging things through automated processes. I'll ask the user to be more wary. You might want to drop them a message, asking why they think the images need permission. Killiondude (talk) 06:46, 15 December 2009 (UTC)

Deletion of file Francisco_Azuela.jpg ,,, Why?
Dear Killiondude,
This is the second time that this image is deleted, I I don't know why. The foto of Francisco Azuela was made by myself. In the upload of the file I mentioned that.
Could you tell me why you have deleted this image from the biografy of this Mexican Poet and writer.
If there is any way you could help me with this I will appreciated.
regards Tristan Azuela
- I took a look at the logs. This is the second time it has been undeleted, and likely the last. Please add a license to the file or it will be deleted in 7 days' time. You can review your licensing choices at COM:TAG. I would recommend a Creative Commons license. Killiondude (talk) 18:20, 15 December 2009 (UTC)

Files deleted
Killiondude, I'm gonna repeat in here what I´ve already wrote to Shizhao.
Two images of my property were deleted last week, fact that I don´t understand because I asked the author of the photographs to send the permission to permissions-commons@wikimedia.org and I know with certainty he did because he sent a copy of thay e-mail to me. It was not easy for me to contact the author, indeed he asked me why did I put his name in the first place instead of telling the pictures were mine in order to avoid all these procedures.
Files were http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Archivo:Lacri_12.jpg http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Archivo:Lingerbliss_myt.jpg

- I'm sorry for the problems you had in getting this done. I located the OTRS ticket, undeleted the files and fixed them accordingly. Thanks for your patience and for bringing this matter to my attention. Killiondude (talk) 18:19, 17 December 2009 (UTC)

Cremation images
You were correct to remove these images. The uploader was not the copyright holder. I'm in contact with the copyright holder now, and she may upload these images herself, so if you see them re-appear, that's what's going on. Rklawton (talk) 19:07, 18 December 2009 (UTC)

File:Hurricane2.jpg should probably be deleted. It is perhaps a copy of en:File:CanadianHawkerHurricane1.jpg (unsure license for more than 7 days). -- Common Good (talk) 20:56, 18 December 2009 (UTC)
- People get really touchy about speedy deleting {{PD}} tags that were added before the 2008 cutoff date. Too bad I can't review what the enwiki picture was. The software at the time of upload (in 2002) didn't backup the images, so once those files are deleted, they're gone forever. Feel free to start a DR for the Commons image you linked. Killiondude (talk) 23:06, 18 December 2009 (UTC)
Again files deleted by mistake(((
Hallo, we talked already some time ago about file "Detinochi-chornarada_photoposter1.jpg" which was delted with by mistake with reason "No source since 11 November 2009" and you were so kind to recover it. I also written to you, that I do own rights for all the images on the page, because they all are made by our photographers, photographers of gothic.com.ua (some of them have it written on photo!). I sent email with license to permissions-commons@wikimedia.org. I wrote in email that I own all right for all images on the page http://ru.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=%D0%94%D0%B5%D1%82%D0%B8_%D0%BD%D0%BE%D1%87%D0%B8_(%D1%84%D0%B5%D1%81%D1%82%D0%B8%D0%B2%D0%B0%D0%BB%D1%8C) I also written to you at discussion about "Detinochi-chornarada_photoposter1.jpg": "Can you please confirm that these images don't need to be proved anymore? Because the notes to all the images say that license information is not confirmed and they can be deleted.. but i did sent email stating that I have the rights and got no answer. May be i do something wrong, I'm pretty new to Wiki. Thanks in advance. Svarog1 (talk) 22:57, 21 November 2009"
But now the images were deleted again... I'm so frustrated, because I did sent email with information about license and I did said to you, that I've done it before :(( I don't understand, why it's all so difficult in Wikipedia. I'm really loosing any wish do add any new photos in future :( Could you please recover these photos and don't delete them anymore please? Thank you in advance! In this Christimass 2009 I just want to have complete article with good photos, which are all ours :) (talk) 02:31, 24 December 2009 (UTC)

Hola, primero que todo, quiero desearte un próspero año nuevo. Quería preguntarte porque has borrado la Imagen:Chilenos8.jpg la cual era una buena imagen, ocupada en la Wikipedia de muchos idiomas para representar a la población chilena. Existe alguna manera de ser agregada nuevamente. Que se puede hacer o puedo hacer para volver a incluir esta imagen?¿. ?¿Alguna licencia o permiso que pueda volver a incluirla?¿, de ante manos, muchas gracias.--Investigadoreee (talk) 05:09, 26 December 2009 (UTC)
- Hola! Gracias por tus deseos. Espero que has tenido una feliz Navidad. Yo sé que es un buena imagen, pero no tuvemos permiso desde el autor por OTRS. Fue escrito que el autor es "Arnaldo Vasoalto" y el founte era "UrbanScrapers". Me gustaria que tuvieramos un otra imagen como esa, pero no lo he encontrado. Yo he buscado en flickr.com, panoramio.com, y Commons. Pero tenemos File:PaseoAhumada.jpg, File:Paro ANEF 2008-2.jpg, y File:Unimarc San Borja- 08 Jul 04 Santiago (7).jpg.

Removing "Honl_claudia_christian.jpg", it has been deleted from Commons by Killiondude
I am new to Wiki so please forgive my ignorance of your processes. The image "Honl_claudia_christian.jpg" was posted to the biography article "Claudia Christian" in June 2008 by David Honl. This image was watermarked and identified as copyrighted by David Honl. He is the professional photographer who took the photo. He created a Wikipedia account, and posted the image that was removed to the article personally. I believe it was removed by you on November 8th 2009 (if this is not the case could you kindly direct me to the person that I should be writing to) stating it was not licensed. I am trying resolve this issue for Mr Honl and I would like to know what is required by him to licence an image that he owns and so kindly provided to this Wikipedia article? Could you please advise what needs to be done in order for this image to be deemed "legal" for Wikipedia use. Mr Honl was following the standard procedures he uses to post all of his images on the web and was unaware of your processes.
Any suggestions or assistance that you could offer regarding this situation would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you for your time and consideration in this matter. Regards, Glassalien (talk) 19:31, 27 December 2009 (UTC)
- Hi! I can restore the photo for the time being. The uploader/creator of the image needs to pick a free license to assign to the image. COM:L is the very long page that describes all the licensing stuff on Commons, but Commons:First steps/License selection is a much shorter page that is to the point. Commons:Copyright tags is the page that lists all of the free licenses available to the creator. I would recommend a Creative Commons license (found in the "Free Creative Commons licenses" section of that page). If a license isn't chosen in the next 7 days, it will be deleted again after that period. Let me know if there are any questions. It might not hurt for the David Honl to email our OTRS team, to verify that he owns the copyright. See COM:OTRS. I am also an OTRS volunteer. Killiondude (talk) 22:02, 27 December 2009 (UTC)
- David has made the changes to the image to follow the Wiki policies based on the details the you provided above. I believe he uploaded the same image under a slightly different name. Does changing the name of the file change the process of restoring it? The link to the image is

I've replaced the other picture on Ms. Christian's Wikipedia article with this picture. The previously used image wasn't very flattering. I'm sure Ms. Christian will appreciate this new picture on her article. Everything seems to be in order. Thanks for contacting me about this. Killiondude (talk) 17:37, 28 December 2009 (UTC)

File:Emsberger1.jpg
Hello!
I got a message on the hungarian wikipedia, to help one of my friend (who doesn't spek english) "get back" a picture (File:Emsberger1.jpg) which was deleted by You on dec 14. Because you are an administrator you can see deleted images, so could i ask You to send that picture by email (pilgab@freemail dot hu) or upload it to the hungarian wikipedia? Thank you and happy new year! Pilgab (talk) 18:55, 30 December 2009 (UTC)
- First I'd like to know if you're going to use it under fair use on the Hungarian Wikipedia...? I don't particularly want to give out the image if it is just going to be used as a copyright violation. Sorry if that seems like I'm not assuming good faith, I just want to double check (I've never been asked for deleted copies of images missing OTRS permission). Or maybe you or your friend own the image? Killiondude (talk) 23:29, 30 December 2009 (UTC)
- My friend wrote me that Emsberger Gyula (the person on the picture) gave his own personal photo to illustrate his article under public domain licence. I don't have the letter (maybe there isn't any written permission), i'm just a messenger :) Lajos (my friend) wants to reupload the picture on the hungarian wikipedia and i'm sure he will fix the licenc question with the hungarian OTRS admins. Pilgab (talk) 18:07, 1 January 2010 (UTC)

Question
Hello, I'm sorry but on COM:SS is explicit about screenshot ("The Firefox icon is non-free, so it must not be included in screenshots.") the two images here and here have the ff icon, this is a motive or no for image deletion? Is only a doubt :-) Thanks @lestaty discuţie 06:20, 31 December 2009 (UTC)
- Hi, thanks for asking about this. In File:Foto recursiva do artigo da wikipedia.jpg, you can't even see the Firefox logo. In File:Screenshot pe 171207.png, you can see a very small logo in the top left, but that doesn't mean the image needs to be deleted, but just edited so that the logo is blurred or removed. :-) Killiondude (talk) 07:19, 31 December 2009 (UTC)

Hi, you deleted this picture. But there is a permission from my brother in law for all his pictures. He sent it to commons@wikimedia.org in the time from 17. to 22. december 2009. So please check this and restore the foto and all sites where it was placed. I m very very sour about this. --Peng (talk) 11:00, 2 January 2010 (UTC)
Could you please explain...
You recently closed the discussion for File:Alyssa Dailen Bustamante.jpg on the basis of a lack of OTRS permission. Didn't the uploader claim they took the picture themselves? I can understand someone having doubts about that. If they really did take the picture OTRS is unnecessary. If we have reason to doubt they were truthful about taking the picture I agree that should be a serious concern. But I don't see how OTRS enters into it.
Thanks in advance for your explanation. Geo Swan (talk) 14:05, 2 January 2010 (UTC)
- Many, many people's uploads have {{own}} on them due to how the upload system works when they don't actually own the images at all. I've temporarily undeleted the file for you to see that 1) The original file uploaded to that name seems to have been some sort of personal picture uploaded (which does seem to have metadata, now that I've reverted to that image) and 2) The file shown with the young person in handcuffs doesn't have any metadata associated with it, which is usually indicative of a copyvio. I can just delete what appears to be the copyvio version and leave the personal image. However, we would need OTRS permission to verify they own the courtroom image, so I am not apt to leave that there. Killiondude (talk) 19:21, 2 January 2010 (UTC)
- Hi Killiondude, can the image be deleted now? The 2nd version is stolen from AP and the 1st and 3rd one is from her Youtube-account as distributed by CBS. --Túrelio (talk) 19:48, 2 January 2010 (UTC)

Hello, You have removed all my Debussy audio files which have been for awating to be approved. Here is what I have written to permissions-commons@wikimedia.org today:
"Dear Michelle Kinney, I am very fruestraded because User:Killiondude has deleted all my Debussy files you have promissied me to be taken care of. I don't know what to do now. I have been waiting for approval since November 2009. I have sent you my conformation that I own a copytight of the recording and I also asked Giorgi Latsabidze to forward you his email about his permission which would allow to keep those files on the wikimedi commons. Please let me know what should I do. Thank you"
That email indicates that files were going to be approved:
"Thank you for your email.
That's fantastic. If you can just forward us confirmation from Giorgi Latsabidze whether via email or a scan of a letter that indicates he's given you permission to release the works into the public domain, I'll be happy to complete the verification for all of the audio files you uploaded with this permission. Yours sincerely, Michelle Kinney"
Now you Mr Killiondude tell me what would you do if you were me. Thank you — Preceding unsigned comment added by Xsprint (talk • contribs)
- Hello! Thank you for contacting me about this. I've found the ticket in the OTRS system you quoted above (ticket:2009122110015996). I'm investigating further and will let you know as soon as possible what can be done to resolve this. Don't worry about the deletions. It isn't really "deleting" as much as "hiding" the files from the public view. Deleting and undeleting are relatively quick and painless. :-) Killiondude (talk) 06:15, 3 January 2010 (UTC)
- Okay, I believe it is all sorted now. Mr. Latsabidze emailed and I've sorted things. Check your email. :-) Killiondude (talk) 23:21, 3 January 2010 (UTC)
I trully appreciate it! All the best! --Xsprint (talk) 23:57, 3 January 2010 (UTC)
File:Podujevo srusena crkva.JPG
Hi Killiondude, how is it going?
Recently you have deleted File:Podujevo srusena crkva.jpg on commons, but it has been uploaded again and this time it has been uploaded on en.wikipedia.org, en:File:Podujevo srusena crkva.JPG, can you check it out?
Thank you. Kedadi (talk) 17:42, 3 January 2010 (UTC)
- That file seems to be on Commons. It is the same picture, too. I've tagged it again for permission because I can't see where it says the image is in the public domain. It should be noted that both times it was uploaded by different users. Killiondude (talk) 20:53, 3 January 2010 (UTC)
- Hello Killiondude!
- I uploaded that file, but it is not the same. I just uploaded it with the same name. Is that a problem? I just dont want to change all wiki entrys of that. Old photo was something else, i remember that.
- It is used on this site (http://www.kosovo.net/pogrom_march/podujevo1/page_01.htm)
- From this site (http://www.praguepost.com/)
- As far as i know, Prague Post have that free source edition after publishing. Other uses of public domain use:
- http://www.suc.org/projects/Kosovo/heritage_destruction/march_pogrom/podujevo/st-elian.html
- http://www.mfa.gov.rs/Policy/CI/kosovo-slike/index.html

- Maybe i tag it wrong, hope you can help me with that. It is definitively in public domain, we can find some more data if you like?! :) :)
- Be good! All best, --Tadija (talk) 18:46, 4 January 2010 (UTC)
- Hi! Thanks for contacting me. I was incorrect in saying they are the same image, you were right. But I do not see anywhere where it says the content is in the public domain. On Kosovo.net it says "© KIM Info-Service" and on praguepost.com it says "Copyright © Prague Post, spol. s.r.o. All rights reserved. For reprint requests contact the managing editor." So unless we get an email to permissions-commonswikimedia.org from the copyright holder, saying that the file is definitely free, we don't have an indication that it is okay for Commons to host. Killiondude (talk) 19:15, 4 January 2010 (UTC)
- So what can we do? Tell me. This photo is important to be on wiki, so we must be able to do something. Can we contact managing editor? :) What did you do in this situation? It is the same photo on all those sites, no questions about it. Can you seek on those other sites? Maybe there it is PD? --Tadija (talk) 22:02, 4 January 2010 (UTC)
- You can try to email people to see who owns the copyright, and ask if they would be willing to release the image with a free license for Commons to use. There's an email template at COM:ET that they could use to email OTRS. Or you could search Flickr.com for an image of the same building (if you can't find a free image there, you could ask different Flickr users if they would be willing to relicense, Flickr users are generally very nice people and will relicense most of the time when you ask, especially if you tell them it will be featured in Wikipedia). If I get some free time tonight, I might help you in locating a free image of this building. Killiondude (talk) 22:33, 4 January 2010 (UTC)

I will soon write article about this church, it has such an incredible story behind. So i'll need some pictures. And you will be my new best friend if you do that! :) :) :) --Tadija (talk) 15:28, 5 January 2010 (UTC)
- Hmm. I looked and it didn't take long to realize that there's no free files of this out there. The best we can hope for is that the emails you sent out get responses, and they're willing to give this image a free license. Killiondude (talk) 07:18, 6 January 2010 (UTC)
- Ok! But i would love to ask you something. Orthodox Christmas is starting, so as most of those e-mail owners are on small holiday, can we postpone deletion of that file for a few days? It is a bit unfair to delete it now, while people are on holiday, and after they return, and send mail, file is already deleted. What do you think? --Tadija (talk)

- I did send one from my other e-mail, by forward, as that man send it to me also. That's why i asked how can we check it. And you responded to me, so if there is no other mail there, he should wait then. I send them again how should it looks like, with link in the bottom, so hope that they will send it... Soon...

Superseded images policy
Regarding [1]... That policy is nuts. Someone did the work of making a vector image, I did the work of replacing it on about 20 wikis, and now we should start a chat. About what? Sysops usually have their own brains to see that the images are identical. Why do we vote for sysops if they can work only as robots? I refuse to undergo such a needless procedure. Let the ugly bitmap rot here, I don't care anymore. --Egg (talk) 01:13, 4 January 2010 (UTC)
- You're free to replace all the instances with vectorized version, we just can't delete the old version (as far as I know) due to that policy. Killiondude (talk) 01:18, 4 January 2010 (UTC)

Category:National Register of Historical Places in X
Hi. This is in response to your comment on my talk page, where you cited categories like Category:National Register of Historic Places in Sacramento County, California are a part of Category:Sacramento County, California.
You asked:
- Should we request a bot to remove the redundant "Category:X County, Y state" categories from the NRHP categories? I checked on enwp, and we just use "Category:National Register of Historic Places in California", and don't go into county subcats. I would very much like to hear if what I'm saying makes sense and if you have an opinion on the issue.
I think the current arrangement is just fine. The fact that File:AlhambraSac.jpg is an image of a building in the city of Sacramento that is on the National Register of Historic Places justifies having it in categories for buildings in Sacramento as well as for properties listed on the National Register. At EN, the National Register categories for many states are carried down to the county level and sometimes to the city level. (All depends on the number of pages to include.) --Orlady (talk) 16:26, 13 January 2010 (UTC)

Deletion of File:Hazrat Inayat Khan.jpg
Hi, just a note as I saw a couple of entries in the English Wikipedia article on Inayat Khan. The article is in my watchlist -- that's the extent of my involvement.
I notice you've deleted a couple of pictures of Inayat Khan due to lack of OTRS. One was File:Hazrat Inayat Khan.jpg, the other was File:Hazrat & Vina.jpg. I can't see the pictures or details now, as they've been deleted.
The Wikipedia article states "Hazrat Inayat Khan (July 5, 1882 – February 5, 1927)" which suggests that these must be old photos if they show Inayat Khan alive, so was OTRS really required? Just a thought. Thanks, Esowteric (talk) 11:07, 17 January 2010 (UTC)
- Hi! Thanks for asking. I just checked the files, and File:Hazrat Inayat Khan.jpg gives a source which was published in 1977, and File:Hazrat & Vina.jpg's source only gives a direct link to the image itself, not the page the image is found on, so there is not indication when that was published. For templates such as {{PD-old}}/{{PD-1923}}/etc. the date the image is taken doesn't really matter, it is the date that the image is published that really matters. If you can find some images of that person that were published a long time ago (and are in the public domain) feel free to upload them. If you have any other questions, feel free to ask.

Hi Killiondude, you deleted an image I created because of licence problems File:SEWP Ultimate Ribbon.gif . This image was made from two existing commons images. As far as I could tell all the licence/copyright info was OK. I did ask for help on Village pump but no one answered the question about what extra was needed. I would like to use this image, what extra info does it need to meet the requirements? --Peterdownunder (talk) 08:29, 26 January 2010 (UTC)

PeriplusAncientMap.jpg
Hi Killiondude! You deleted the file named above. I have uploaded it again as File:OrtelioPeriplusMap.jpg. I do not know what image info was given in the original file. However, from the image itself it is obvious
- that it is an old map,
- that it is from Abraham Ortelius (stated in the title), who is well over 70 years dead now, and
- that it is dated 1597 (lower right corner).
I bit more diligence would avoid unnecessary work. --WolfgangRieger (talk) 21:56, 27 January 2010 (UTC)
- The previous version didn't have a source for the file, which is required on all of the images hosted on Commons. I see you've attached a source for the new file. Thanks for doing that. In the future, if you wish, in situations like this, I could have undeleted the old file for you to update. But since you uploaded a new one, that is fine too.

Wikipedia Logo
Dear Killiondude,
I was wondering if you could answer my question. Friend of mine would like to use a wikipedia logo for his professional web site. Do you think there is any way to get a permission to use it or any other way such as direct link you could recommend? Thanks!--Jeunesbarbara (talk) 07:51, 1 February 2010 (UTC)
- Hi! I am sure that you'd be able to use the Wikipedia logo under fair use laws, but as I am not a lawyer, you'll have to follow up about the US law with regard to fair use. I know that Wikipedia has much higher standards for fair use than the US law states, and that when Wikipedia uses logos under a fair use rationale, they have to be low resolution and are required to link back to where the source of the file is found online, among other things. I hope I answered your question... but I've not much experience in dealing with copyrighted files. Killiondude (talk) 08:26, 1 February 2010 (UTC)

- If a file needs undeleting and subsequently needs to be "relinked" in all the articles, a log is kept through this interface so we can see where the uses were. But to answer your main question, there was no source for the file that would substantiate that it was published by the USGov ({{PD-USGov}}). I looked at the enwiki source (deleted when it was moved over to Commons) and that didn't have the source either. If you can provide a source for the image, I will happily undelete it. If you don't remember the specifics of the image, I could probably email you a copy to help your memory, if you would like. Let me know what you'd like to do. :-) Killiondude (talk) 23:28, 2 February 2010 (UTC)

Please look here: [DVD http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Giorgi-latsabidze---.jpg] Please let me know if there is anything i should do. I sent email to wikimedia commons saying that i gave my permission to put this dvd cover on the public domain and i put it under license: Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 3.0 Unported. I don't wont this DVD cover to be removed. Therefore, I am asking you to let me know if there is a missing license evidence there. Again, i think I did right but you are an expertise in this. Look forward to hearing from you. I sent my email from maestro092009@hotmail.com. Sincerely. --Xsprint (talk) 17:02, 13 February 2010 (UTC)
- You have 3 licenses on that file page. A public domain license in the {{Information}} box, a Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 3.0 Unported license, and a GDFL. Just letting you know that you can have the latter two (the reusers can just pick one), but having a public domain tag on there sort of defeats the purpose of having any other license tag on there. I'll slap an {{OTRS Pending}} tag on it for you. Killiondude (talk) 04:09, 14 February 2010 (UTC)
I see.. Thanks so much! So is there anything I should do at this point? Yes, I had 3 licenses...maybe I was overcautious. Should I delete public domain or leave it as it is? Please let me know. Thanks so much!--Xsprint (talk) 04:54, 14 February 2010 (UTC)
- Well, it is probably best if you choose to either 1) Use the public domain license or 2) Use the other two. Whichever you decide, you'll have to send another email to OTRS to make sure it is documented. Public domain means that anybody can reuse the image for any purpose without attributing the creator and they don't have to release future versions with the same license. So in essence, the GFDL and CC licenses you have on there are variants of each other, the difference between the two would take a lot of text to explain. But they both require attribution of the creator of the image, and that reusers are required to license future uses of the image with the same license. You can read more about license jargon and their definitions at Commons:First steps/License selection. Once you settle the license stuff I stated earlier, you just wait for an OTRS volunteer to process your email. Killiondude (talk) 05:01, 14 February 2010 (UTC)
Well, I got kind of confused. Thanks for your link to silence page but still have some questions for you: If this a details what should I remove/eliminate?

Well do you think if I leave only public domain and resend an email to OTRS it should be fine? Please let me know from this graph what should I delete in order to to that..I don't like complications. Just whatever will work. Simple as Pimple. Thanks!--Xsprint (talk) 08:00, 14 February 2010 (UTC)
- It just depends on what you want. I would recommend staying with the latter ({{self|cc-by-sa-3.0|GFDL}}) license, and removing the public domain tag. But it is up to you. If it is in the public domain, the creator ultimately loses the rights to the work (very simply put), but sometimes that is "good" because they want to donate their work to the world.

Great, I just did it please have a look: Here I also sent another Email to OTRS saying that it's licensed for GFDL and CC licenses. Is that right? Thanks again for all your help! --Xsprint (talk) 16:30, 14 February 2010 (UTC)
- Yes, now you just have to wait for an OTRS member to get to it. It could take several days. Killiondude (talk) 08:12, 15 February 2010 (UTC)
Dear Killiondude I just uploaded another image and send Email to OTRS saying: I agree to publish that work under the free licenses: Cc-by-sa-3.0 and GFDL. I think it should be fine. Here is the image: Debussy Thanks!--Xsprint (talk) 07:23, 18 February 2010 (UTC)
Request
Hi, Killiondude. Please see [[file talk:Schnarecy dsb.png]] Kubura (talk) 03:57, 14 February 2010 (UTC)
- Should be all cleared up, I found another one that was a derivative and deleted that one too. Killiondude (talk) 04:07, 14 February 2010 (UTC)
Image restoration request
Could you restore File:Grotto Campground S comfort sta NPS.jpg, which you deleted on 24 January? It was uploaded as part of a group of {{PD-USGov-NPS}} photos, and as you can see here, the licensing issue that caused it to be deleted was a typo on the part of the uploader. Nyttend (talk) 03:44, 19 February 2010 (UTC)
- Yes, of course. I'm sorry, I usually look for typo'd licenses. I'm sorry about that. Killiondude (talk) 05:09, 19 February 2010 (UTC)
Photo-Image of Admiral Byrd Stamp
I uploaded the photo-file of the Admiral Byrd stamp again, 'with' categories and licensing info' this time. Note: Images of stamps issued before 1978 are in the public domain. Hope the image is a welcomed addition to the Admiral Byrd page.

- Can you go through your uploads and change the license from PD-self (not true since you don't own the copyright) to PD-USGov, since the US released it? See here. And you need to fix the source as well, since it is not your "own work" (you didn't create the stamps). This website seems to have many stamps. Killiondude (talk) 19:14, 20 February 2010 (UTC)

What the f... goes on? Has nothing better to do? And even told me! You delete just to show service but adds nothing! Merrill
- Hello. I'm not sure why you are upset. If you feel that the deletion discussion was incorrect, please post on Commons:Undeletion requests. Killiondude (talk) 04:53, 21 February 2010 (UTC)
