Commons:Deletion requests/File:Canadian Parliament Buildings Ottawa.jpg

Could you take another look at your !vote here? I believe I know what image you are referring to in thinking the one posted here is a copyvio, but while they are taken from remarkably similar angles and distances, there are a fair number of difference between the two such that I don't believe they are the same image. But perhaps most importantly, the Commons copy predates the blog by three months. If there were a copyvio, I think the blog would have been the one in the wrong. Thanks!

My bad. I've commented there. Thanks for noticing. —LX (talk, contribs) 20:24, 23 January 2014 (UTC)

S'alright. The angle and distance being almost exact threw me too. I likely would have agreed with you if I hadn't noticed the flag. There must be a sort of observation platform or something nearby. Cheers! Resolute (talk) 03:31, 24 January 2014 (UTC)

A kitten for you!

Thank you tons for your replay and advises on how to get a license. I had no idea how difficult this was. The whole thing was so confusing but you made it so easy and clear. Tons and tons of cheers to you for the help.

Thanks! I like kittens. —LX (talk, contribs) 21:31, 28 January 2014 (UTC)

Sorry about that

Unstoppable Juggernaut
Oops I thought I'd requested administrator right (I find this odd) can you link to an admin request page? (if they exist).
And I don't want to reply on my own User:talk page (all because you had never replied to my previous message when I replied on my own talk page)
Can you also delete Ghost Rider my younger sibling pushed the publish button.

I didn't realise there was anything in that message for me to respond to, but I must admit that I couldn't really make sense of it. You created a subpage of Commons:Administrators/Requests, which is the right place to request administrator privileges, but your request was malformed and incomplete, and I'm sorry, but you don't stand a snowball's chance of becoming an administrator in the foreseeable future given that you have not contributed anything of value to the project, to put things mildly. —LX (talk, contribs) 21:20, 13 February 2014 (UTC)

Dblama

I've blocked this user and 3 connected accts, and deleted all the DR'd uploads. Let me know if you see any further socking. INeverCry 20:08, 26 February 2014 (UTC)

Thanks. I'll keep my eyes open. It never ceases to amaze me how some people have the gall to keep lying until they're blue in the face even after they've been caught red-handed and called out. —LX (talk, contribs) 10:13, 27 February 2014 (UTC)

Text och bild ur tidning från 1907

Hej! Såg att du filade på kategorivalför en av mina bilder. Tror du att du kan hjälpa mig rätt i licensdjungeln?

Bilden föreställer ur ett avfotograferat eller inscannat tidningsurklipp från 1907. Jag har i min tur fotograferat av det ur en bok, som anges vid bilden. I USA anses tydligen allt som är publicerat före 1923 vara fritt från upphovsrätt men för svenska förhållanden vet jag verkligen inte. Kanske bilden egentligen inte borde vara på Commons. Vet du var man frågar om sånt här? --Stighammar (talk) 14:04, 7 March 2014 (UTC)

Svensk upphovsrätt utgår i huvudsak från när upphovsmannen avlidit, snarare än publicering, vilket ibland kan göra det svårare att verifiera att ett verk är i allmän ägo. Grundregeln är att 70 år ska ha passerat efter det att upphovsmannen avlidit. Om publiceringen skett anonymt, vilket eventuellt kan vara fallet för text och bild i tidningar, räknas det istället från publiceringstillfället (se {{Anonymous-EU}} eller {{PD-EU-no author disclosure}}). Det är inte säkert att publiceringen är anonym bara för att det inte finns någon byline i anslutning till texten eller bilden. Bästa stället för de här typen av frågor på Commons är bybrunnen för upphovsrättsfrågor. Oftast pratas det engelska där, men det går bra med andra språk också. —LX (talk, contribs) 14:24, 7 March 2014 (UTC)

Tack! Bäst hade varit att ha sett själva tidningen (och inte bara klippet), förstås. Men eftersom det rör sig om en av skandalblaskan Fäderneslandets "peka ut homosexuella"-artiklar (vilket iofs inte ännu var en genre 1907) är risken att skribent eller tecknare valde att stå för alstret med sitt namn ganska liten. Jag ska fundera lite mer, och kika mer på licensmallarna du länkar till. --Stighammar (talk) 11:06, 8 March 2014 (UTC)

New version

Hi,I'd like to learn how to upload a new version of an existing file. You have already helped somebody with a similar question in Spanish WP on 8 October 2013, but I don't know Spanish and I will be glad if you repeat the procedure for me Thanks. Nedim Ardoğa (talk) 18:58, 29 March 2014 (UTC)

I don't speak Spanish either, but see Commons:FAQ#How can I upload a new version of a file? —LX (talk, contribs) 19:05, 29 March 2014 (UTC)
