File:Hal Evarts.jpg

Please restore the following pages:

Reason: this photo is from granddaughter's collection Wadsy1 (talk) 01:44, 29 September 2023 (UTC)

@Wadsy1: What year was it taken? Who was the photographer? Was it ever published before you uploaded it to Commons? If you don't know the answer to some of these questions, that's fine, but the more information you provide, the more likely we are to make a proper determination of the copyright status of the image (and it can be restored if we determine either that it is public domain or that you are the copyright holder). -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 09:11, 29 September 2023 (UTC)
Thanks. I'm the husband of Hal G. Evarts's granddaughter. The family assumes this photo was taken on a trip to Canada's Northwest Territories in 1921. The photographer is unknown but could have been his wife, Sylvia, who was on that trip. It has been published in one book written by a family member. It was on the cover of Skunk Ranch to Hollywood: The West of Author Hal Evarts written by his son, also Hal G. Evarts (now deceased) and published by Capra Press in 1989. It has also been reproduced on the website of his grandson, and my wife's brother, Bill Evarts who is a professional photographer and used it in a webpage describing his family background. Wadsy1 (talk) 21:13, 29 September 2023 (UTC)
The book isn't publicly available, so I suspect that there is a copyright notice inside or copyright was registered. If so, we need a free license permission following VRT instructions from the book copyright holder (probably the author heirs). Ankry (talk) 20:47, 30 September 2023 (UTC)
 Support Pictures from Canada from 1921 are accepted with {{PD-Canada}} + {{PD-1996}}. Yann (talk) 15:50, 1 October 2023 (UTC)
Yes, if Canada is the country of first publication but Evarts was an American and it may have been first published in the US in 1989. Abzeronow (talk) 17:19, 1 October 2023 (UTC)
PD-Canada doesn't require publication. Yann (talk) 17:28, 1 October 2023 (UTC)

Copyright status in Canada may be irrelevant if the photo is copyrighted in US. Ankry (talk) 00:49, 2 October 2023 (UTC)
 Oppose That the picture was probably taken in Canada does not mean that Canada is the source country, especially if the suspected photographer as well as the subject are Americans and it was apparently first published there in 1989. Let VRT sort it out as suggested by Ankry. --Rosenzweig τ 17:39, 1 October 2023 (UTC)

 Not done: If the book was published before March 2, 1989, it needed a copyright notice which it probably has. After that date no notice was required. The book is widely availalble used. As suggested by Rosenzweig, please email VRT with as much of the information noted above as possible. .     Jim . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 14:52, 2 October 2023 (UTC)

File:Monument haussmann blvrd haussmann.png

Please restore the following pages:

Reason: The sculptor, François Cogné, died in 1952, the 70 p.m.a. has passed, and the copyright is expired. A1Cafel (talk) 03:57, 28 September 2023 (UTC)

 Question It's now in the PD in France, yes. But what about US copyright? Per [2], the statue was ordered (and I guess also created by the sculptor) in 1935 (and only erected at its present location in 1989). So it was still protected in France on their URAA date in 1996, even with the shorter copyright term of 50 years + wartime extensions. So I think that sculpture is still protected by copyright in the US until the end of 2030.
When FoP applies, we tend to ignore the URAA for such works. In France however, FOP does not and did not apply (or only in a version that forbids commercial use). I've not restored Finnish statues because of this (or only at a later point). So we probably don't want to restore that file before 2031. (The corresponding DR is Commons:Deletion requests/File:Monument haussmann blvrd haussmann.png by the way.) --Rosenzweig τ 14:34, 28 September 2023 (UTC)
 Support I see no logical reason to ignore US copyright law for modern sculptures in countries in FoP but not for PD-old sculptures in countries without FoP. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 15:50, 28 September 2023 (UTC)
 Comment, I've added an Undelete in 2031 category to the DR for this file. Thanks for bringing it to my attention.  Oppose restoration per Rosenzweig, since France doesn't have FOP, we have to apply URAA here. Abzeronow (talk) 16:01, 28 September 2023 (UTC)
This would be a big change in how we apply copyright, as mentioned by KoH above. It shouldn't be decided here. Yann (talk) 16:07, 28 September 2023 (UTC)
@King of Hearts and Yann: Was this ever discussed or decided somewhere, is it in some guideline? Or is it just how it "is done / was done"? --Rosenzweig τ 16:16, 28 September 2023 (UTC)
Status quo as far as I know is that we don't restore URAA-affected works in non-FOP countries. I've definitely had undeletion requests denied because of this in the past. I'd definitely be open to revisiting current policy on VPC or VPP though. Abzeronow (talk) 16:18, 28 September 2023 (UTC)
Ah yes, I misremembered. We do restore buildings as a matter of standard practice since they were not copyrighted under US law pre-1990. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 16:31, 28 September 2023 (UTC)
@King of Hearts: Even recent buildings (completed on or after December 1, 1990) are ok for Commons as far as US coypright is concerned because "pictures, paintings, photographs, or other pictorial representations" of copyrighted buildings are exempted from the copyright of the building (COM:FOP USA). Sculptures, statues etc. are not however, and we regularly delete images of such works if located in the US. --Rosenzweig τ 16:38, 28 September 2023 (UTC)
Right, but they're never going to be PD-old in the source country. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 16:49, 28 September 2023 (UTC)
So File:Aristide Maillol - La Rivière - plomb 1938 Jardins du Carrousel.jpg (and hundreds—thousands?—of such files) should be deleted? Yann (talk) 17:13, 28 September 2023 (UTC)
That kinda seems like a w:WP:OTHERSTUFF there. 1938 sculpture by an artist who died 1944 which due to wartime extensions was not in the public domain on January 1, 1996 in France. I probably am not going to nominate files in that category for deletion. Abzeronow (talk) 17:26, 28 September 2023 (UTC)
I did some research, for assessing if this case is an exception or not, and clearly it is not. The general understanding is that if a work of art is in the public domain in its country of origin, it can be uploaded to Commons. A very quick survey shows that probably tens of thousands of files are in the same situation. Yann (talk) 21:26, 28 September 2023 (UTC)
I  Disagree with the statement that "The general understanding is that if a work of art is in the public domain in its country of origin, it can be uploaded to Commons". We constantly delete (or delay undeletion of) files showing works of art that are free in their country of origin, but not in the US, per Commons:Licensing. --Rosenzweig τ 22:46, 28 September 2023 (UTC)
I found a discussion from 2012: Commons:Requests for comment/Non-US Freedom of Panorama under US copyright law. Apparently the question was not really resolved then. --Rosenzweig τ 18:09, 28 September 2023 (UTC)
Yeah, it's an interesting question. We do tend to ignore a possible US issue when there is FoP, under the hope that the FoP law may have some bearing on the US treatment too (not proven as no known test case, but that has always been the treatment on Commons). There is no FoP in this case, and the statue still has a US copyright. On the other hand, the photo is now legal in the place the photo was taken, just like with a FoP law before expiry, so maybe that same hope exists, or a slimmer version of it. I guess the question is if our de facto policy is strictly in relation to a FoP law, or in relation to the law at the place the photo was taken, when photographing something permanently placed in public. Maybe {{Not-free-US-FOP}} could be applied, as it is free by France's "FoP" law (normal copyright expiration). I'm sure it would be taken down if a DMCA request was filed, as have been works from FoP countries in the past, given that we have no strong legal precedent for the current policy (but standard practice it has been).

File:The Mystery Machine from Scooby-Doo at 2013 Comic-Con International (9342392464).jpg

This can hardly be considered a derivative work in the US--Trade (talk) 02:15, 30 September 2023 (UTC)

 Oppose Of course it is derivative, both of the copyright for the original Scooby-Doo art and of the copyright for this particular realization. .     Jim . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 14:45, 2 October 2023 (UTC)

What is the difference between this and the 50 other photos we have of the Mystery Machine? Trade (talk) 15:29, 2 October 2023 (UTC)
  • Support. It is a utilitarian van with text and arrangement of wavy colored stripes. An image search for "Mystery Machine Scooby" shows it NOT to be a detailed copy of the cartoon/film vehicle but rather suggestive of the vehicle's general appearance. (For example the original also has large flower shapes, which this lacks.) I don't see that this violates copyright. (Possibly the phrase "The Mystery Machine" may be trademarked, but that is not a copyright issue.) -- Infrogmation of New Orleans (talk) 22:32, 2 October 2023 (UTC)


We have almost 100 million images on Commons. My best guess is that at least one percent of them -- a million images -- should be deleted for one reason or another. So, if you see 50 similar images, feel free to nominate them for deletion. Why do you think that the paint job does not have a copyright? .     Jim . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 21:51, 2 October 2023 (UTC)


  • For reference, Flickr photo in question: [3] Actual "Scooby Doo" van design in cartoon: [4], apparently authorized toy version, matching the cartoon but not the Flickr image under discussion: [5] . -- Infrogmation of New Orleans (talk) 22:55, 2 October 2023 (UTC)
    •  Support based on that. It's not a copy of any expression that I see, though it evokes the original of course. But the actual delineations are not the same, so it's not a copyright issue from the cartoon. Trademark, if anything at all. It is also a picture of the entire car, a utilitarian object. The questions get more difficult when artwork covers the entire thing, but I think you'd have to be focusing on the actual artwork for this to be derivative of that art, per Ets Hokin v Skyy decision. Carl Lindberg (talk) 12:13, 3 October 2023 (UTC)
Carl, since the artwork does not match that of the cartoon, it is original and has a copyright of its own. The file name and the categories make it clear that this was uploaded here to show the artwork, not the van -- if it were a van photo it would have a category for the van model and year. Unless the photographer is also the artist who painted the van and there is no evidence of that, we can't keep it. (The cats are Category:Mystery Machine and Category:2013 Comic-Con International). .     Jim . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 13:11, 3 October 2023 (UTC)
@Jameslwoodward: Yes, there is separable artwork on the van. However, the copyrightable portions are only in particular spots -- the lettering is not, nor any basic curves or lines. The right/left sides of the graphic on the top half, and portions along the curve on the bottom, would be -- but the photo is not focusing on those. The Ets Hokin decision basically said there needed to be some balance between the rights of photographers, and the rights of the underling artwork authors -- the latter should not get derivative rights over everything in which it happened to appear. A photo of an entire bottle would not be derivative of a copyrightable label, even if contained and prominent in the photo. This is basically the same situation to me -- I don't think the photo is trading off the copyrightable expression in that artwork; it's a photo of the whole van, with some portions of the artwork copyrightable, but not the focus or the point (the lettering and coloring maybe). Most derivative work decisions I'm aware of have been about photos primarily focusing on the copyrighted work itself, or at least intentionally including a copyrighted work for its effect. If you want to take a photo of the van, the artwork is inherently there (i.e. is incidental). The same result was string hinted at in Latimer vs Roaring Toyz, which was about a photo of a motorcycle with prominent copyrightable artwork on it, much the same situation as here, and probably even more so (though that judge ruled on a contractual basis in the end). Same thing as a photo of the Louvre plaza containing the pyramid -- the copyrightable parts are only part of a wider scene, and the wider scene is the subject of the photo. Carl Lindberg (talk) 13:34, 3 October 2023 (UTC)
But doesn't the fact that the image is clearly intended to show the artwork mean anything? If it were intended to show off the whole van, as I said above, it would have the appropriate category for the van. As it is, only someone familiar with whatever brand this is would know anything about the van itself. .     Jim . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 16:16, 3 October 2023 (UTC)
It should have a van category, if it's a known type. The main copyrightable stuff is the curly-cue bits on the sides of the box surrounding the lettering -- the photo is not there to show that off. I'm sure it's more of interest due to the Mystery Machine lettering and the colors, but that part isn't copyrightable. It's also of interest to document a bottle with a copyrightable label -- you are depicting what the product looks like, regardless of what the label happens to be -- that is "incidental". The photo isn't really trading off the specific delineations of those curly-cues; it would have been taken and used even with straight sides on that box.

File:Xavier J. Barile (1891-1981), an American artist.jpg

We respectfully request undeletion of this photo, a portrait of Xavier J. Barile, based on the following:

  1. The artist Xavier J. Barile had this photo made of himself in 1946 at Polito Studio, 151 West 57th Street, New York City for use as a documentary portrait to use in articles about his art and for publicity purposes. We do not know if the portrait was ever actually published.
  2. The actual photographer associated with Polito Studio who made this portrait is, of course, unknown.
  3. Polito Studio no longer exists as a commercial photography business. The original building at 151 West 57th has been replaced by an apartment building built in 2009.
  4. The Catalog of Copyright Entries was searched on 6 Oct 2023. There is no existing copyright registration containing any reference to Polito Studio in New York City.
  5. The two copies of the Barile portrait known to exist have been held by Barile's remaining family member and heir since Barile's death in 1981. It is from one of those copies that the digital file was made.

We therefore believe that the photo portrait of Xavier J. Barile made in 1946 may now be considered as being in Public Domain. We also think that it is well within the constraints of Fair Use to have this portrait displayed in the Xavier J. Barile Wikipedia article for educational/identification purposes.

Please let us know if there is anything else we can do to support this request. Thank you for your attention. 2601:8C3:8578:5D50:B111:2CFC:E3C5:422E 23:25, 6 October 2023 (UTC)

Fair Use is not accepted in Wikimedia Commons, see COM:Fair Use. If the photo was indeed unpublished and the author is unknown or corporate (the case of work for hire) then according to COM:Hirtle chart its copyright will expire 120 years after creation (on 1.1.2067). Until this date we would need a free license from the copyright holder, who may be the photographer's heirs (who need to be identified) or Polito Studio legal successor (also needs to be identified) in order to host the photo in Wikimedia Commons. However, if I am wrong, any other opinion is welcome. Ankry (talk) 10:57, 7 October 2023 (UTC)

 Not done: Per Ankry -- without proof of publication this has a US copyright until 1/1/2067. .     Jim . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 14:07, 7 October 2023 (UTC)

File:Emblem of West Bengal.svg

Please restore the following pages:

Reason: Please undelete this files. This images are very important as they serve as the symbol or emblem of the Indian state of West Bengal, it's government and all it's official institutions. All other states of India including the given state's counterpart Maharashtra have their symbols (emblems) intact and not deleted.

The person who has stupidly deleted these symbols doesn't know the importance of these files. His request already stands false as he stated that these logos were launched in 2011, wherein reality, they were launched in 2018. Moreover, they are public domain logos of the State Govt. of West Bengal, not copyrighted. The bot had deleted these symbols from all West Bengal pages on Wikipedia. Please undelete this. This is a matter of the sanctity of the biggest and most important region of India.

Rourib.2004 (talk) 13:12, 4 October 2023 (UTC)

@Rourib.2004 Please avoid insulting other collaborators. The deletion request was open for more than 4 months and few people participated in it. That the logos are important is of no relevance; they were deleted due to unclear copyright status and not due to scope. What are the sources that justify their PD status in India? Günther Frager (talk) 15:36, 4 October 2023 (UTC)
This image actually shows a flag, a coat of arms, a seal or some other official insignia of a particular region of India. The use of such symbols is restricted in many countries, but not in India. These restrictions are independent of the copyright status.
This work is in the public domain in India because its term of copyright has expired, as per the Indian Copyright Act, 1957.
For example: File:Seal of Maharashtra.svg is a symbol of the counterpart state of West Bengal — Maharashtra. The licensing information given on this symbol applies similarly on the West Bengal symbols which have been deleted.
The symbol/emblem and flag of West Bengal is sourced from the official Government of West Bengal, which is available in public domain. Please refer to Govt. of WB Copyright Policy and State Govt. Order Rourib.2004 (talk) 16:20, 4 October 2023 (UTC)
Regarding people who participated in that deletion request, only the nominator (a person who has been banned on English Wikipedia) Sbb1413 (talk • contribs) and the administrator (who deleted the file on the request of just one person without any consultation) Infrogmation of New Orleans (talk) are present. No other person, either belonging from West Bengal, India or a member from Wikipedia:WikiProject West Bengal participated there. Rourib.2004 (talk) 16:31, 4 October 2023 (UTC)
Sorry, I don't really follow your argument. As far as I understand the logo was published (or made official) on 2018, and from what I see in COM:INDIA works from the government are protected by copyright for 60 years (not months) since publication. The logo contains some parts that might be in the public domain (like the lions), but the logo as a whole was designed / request by Mamata Banerjee (born in 1955) (see W:Emblem of West Bengal). The links you provide don't state the logo is in the public domain at all. The T&C says content on the website can be used free of charge and requires attribution, that is not PD, and it doesn't fulfill our licensing policy. The government order doesn't state the PD of the emblem, and refers to the Prohibition of Improper Use Act from 2005 that states:

4. No person shall use the emblem for the purpose of any trade, business, calling or profession or in the title of any patent, or in any trade mark or design, except in such cases and under such conditions as may be prescribed.

Notice that the act is about the Emblem of India and is not framed as a copyright restriction.
As I said before, the DR was open for more than 4 months (most DR are closed after a couple of weeks). That was a consultation open to everyone. If the people interested in West Bengal don't patrol DRs or don't follow important files and / or articles is their problem. Sbb1413 is banned in enwiki, but he or she is not banned in Commons, and there is no rule that forbids nominating files for deletion. Günther Frager (talk) 19:00, 4 October 2023 (UTC)
Why don't you delete File:Seal of Maharashtra.svg (Emblem of Maharashtra) also then? That emblem too was made in a similar time frame like that of West Bengal. Rest of the states too — Why don't you delete the logo/emblem of all the Indian states? Maximum of them were made in recent times and after 1960, therefore they must be too ineligible to stay in commons for copyright violations? Why only West Bengal?
Another Big Question: What do you expect now? All other Indian states and their articles have their logo/emblems intact whereas only West Bengal article remains in lack of an official symbol? Please explain what will be done in this case.
1. Can't those files be restored temporarily, within which it's licensing info can be tweaked to fit in the Wikipedia copyright regulations, just in the way File:Seal of Maharashtra.svg stands unchallenged in Wikipedia and Commons?
2. Can't those files be restored temporarily, so that it can be downloaded and newly re-uploaded with proper licensing info, like that of File:Seal of Maharashtra.svg? Reason being, those files have official logos in proper format and resolution, which is apparently not available on the internet now.
I will be thankful to you if you reply to these queries one by one here. Rourib.2004 (talk) 20:46, 4 October 2023 (UTC)

Rourib.2004 (talk) 16:59, 4 October 2023 (UTC)

When it comes to official flags / emblems, we typically allow user-drawn versions as their own works, but any graphics copied from government sites may have the 60-year copyright. I'm not sure which these are. Per Commons:Coats of arms, when making a drawing based on a written description, each drawing has an independent copyright. When these emblems, or descriptions of them, are part of law they would be {{PD-EdictGov}} in the US. I don't know the sources of these images -- if the SVG was extracted from an official PDF it may be an issue, but if self-drawn by the uploader I'd tend to allow it. Carl Lindberg (talk) 11:44, 5 October 2023 (UTC)
@Carl Lindberg
These symbols were hand-drawn from the official government sample using Inkscape. But the person who uploaded these files with the emblem on commons, didnt attach the proper licensing info i.e, {{PD-India}}, and wrongfully licensed it under CC-by-SA 4.0, due to which they got proposed for deletion by Sbb1413. This person himself says that, he should have tweaked the licensing info instead of initiating a deletion request as it makes his and mine's home state's articles emblem-less. See Chat.
Please restore these files so that I can change the licensing info of these symbol (emblems) to meet the Wikimedia Commons copyright standards. Without the given flag/emblem and the flag, articles related to the Indian state of West Bengal stand devoid of their official symbol, when other states of India have their symbols intact, like File:Seal of Maharashtra.svg (Emblem of Maharashtra). Rourib.2004 (talk) 12:55, 5 October 2023 (UTC)
If they drew it, they would have copyright in the vectorization most likely, so the license was correct (and PD-India is not). The choice of vectorization control points can be copyrightable separate from the visual result. It is possible to be derivative of another graphic work, but when it comes to governmental flags / seals I think we typically allow self-drawn versions (following Commons:Coats of arms), and not copying graphics from other sources, as the copyright of each separate drawing can be independent. There are unfortunately many DRs who mistake this situation, as they seem similar to logos (exact drawings) which are different -- we normally can't just copy those. Other laws can protect use, but we add the {{Insignia}} tag to note those, as they are Commons:non-copyright restrictions. I can't see these images to see how slavishly they copied the original, but given there is a written description and the graphic is part of the law, and the SVG at least was self-drawn, I would lean  Support on that. If the .png was generated from the .svg, not sure what point it serves, and if the .png was not then we'd have to see where it came from. If it was a separate self-drawn thing, then maybe OK, but the copyrightable vectorization part is not there, just the graphic result. Carl Lindberg (talk) 13:42, 5 October 2023 (UTC)
@Carl Lindberg Yes, you are correct. Along with the given licensing info, the {{Insignia}} tag is added to the symbol/emblem to signify it as coat of arms as per Commons:non-copyright restrictions (just like in File:Seal of Maharashtra.svg). It was mistakenly not mentioned in the files deleted by the uploader. As you said, I would like to mention, those three files i.e, the .svg (emblem), the .png (symbol) and another .svg (flag) had their own written description in their commons pages and the .svg files were self-drawn using Inkscape.
The .png file was generated from .svg for use in Wikipedia articles where using .svg files was inappropriate or didn't seem fit for usage. So both the .png and .svg are essentially same media with different image file formats. Hence, suitable case for undeletion they are. Therefore, I request you to please restore these three files which serve as the emblem of West Bengal in the Republic of India. Rourib.2004 (talk) 16:06, 5 October 2023 (UTC)
Curious where the .png file was more appropriate instead of an .svg, at least for Wikimedia projects -- we often deem that particular type of .png a duplicate or redundant, if generated from an .svg, since the thought was the svg could always be used instead. (If the .png had been in earlier use, maybe kept for historical reasons.) Carl Lindberg (talk) 16:14, 5 October 2023 (UTC)
@Carl Lindberg I meant that the .png file was used in Wikipedia articles in certain places interchangeably with the .svg file. Don't know about their use in WikiMedia Projects. Also, the reason you mentioned at last, keeping the .png format for historical reasons is correct to a certain extent. Rourib.2004 (talk) 19:46, 5 October 2023 (UTC)
@Carl Lindberg Sorry eh; can the files be restored a little quickly, please? The article of West Bengal in Wikipedia and other Bengal-related articles stand emblem-less for more than two days now... Rourib.2004 (talk) 19:56, 5 October 2023 (UTC)

      • I am waiting to see if Carl Lindberg says anything different now that the file source can be seen. I still have doubts (and I could consider DRs for the Maharashtra files). I don't have the information that the West Bengal emblems were created before 1963, I believe these emblems are above the ToO in India. So I'm waiting for information that would help me to definitely close this. Abzeronow (talk) 15:43, 7 October 2023 (UTC)
        @Abzeronow Sure. Thank you for understanding. I had explained all my arguments earlier to @Carl Lindberg regarding the sanctity of these files pertaining to the Indian public domain and following copyright regulations of both the Indian law and the WikiMedia Commons.

    Please compare the three files —

1. File:Emblem of West Bengal.svg with File:Seal of Maharashtra.svg
2. File:Emblem of West Bengal.png with File:Seal of Maharashtra.png
3. File:Flag of West Bengal.svg with File:Flag of Maharashtra.svg.

See that the licensing info and data are all similar in these three files of both Maharashtra and West Bengal. All these files are in public domain of India, and thus they exist in Wikimedia Commons today. If the "Maharashtra" files can exist in Commons without getting deleted, then the "West Bengal"" files can exist too, in the same way. Thank you for restoring these files containing the emblem of the Government of West Bengal, India. Please compare both of them, and after suitable conclusion, please close this request.

  •  Oppose Looking at the restored page one can see that it is not a vectorized image, but a PNG image embedded into a SVG file and that the image was taken from [9]. That is, it was not created by a Common's user as asserted. Moreover, the image itself differs from the one provided in the annex of the law [10] (the map has not country limits). Günther Frager (talk) 17:00, 6 October 2023 (UTC)
    @Rourib.2004 you cannot delete the comments from other people! Günther Frager (talk) 18:10, 6 October 2023 (UTC)
    Mistakenly did that. Rourib.2004 (talk) 18:11, 6 October 2023 (UTC)
    It was a vectorised image. Why are you giving false info? Are you a resident of West Bengal? Or you know how the law works in India?
    I don't agree with your second point also because the annex of the law document is a scanned version in B/W color, because of which the image doesn't look clear and is quite unrecognisable. Rourib.2004 (talk) 19:15, 6 October 2023 (UTC)

    what part of "PNG image embedded into a SVG" is false? Günther Frager (talk) 19:54, 6 October 2023 (UTC)
    @Günther Frager The same thing "PNG image embedded into a SVG" can be said for File:Seal of Maharashtra.svg. You can go and investigate. But that file stays "intact" in commons, how? Both these files which I have said to compare are counterparts of each other, having same licensing info. If the "Maharashtra" one can stay without copyright violations, so can "West Bengal". Rourib.2004 (talk) 20:10, 6 October 2023 (UTC)
    You are comparing apples to oranges. These are different files with different emblems from different authors. They may or may not have drawn them, they may or may not have taken inspiration from another image or they may or may not have uploaded a file available on the web. Moreover, that one image was not challenged in a DR doesn't mean it will not be in the future. Btw, did you open File:Seal of Maharashtra.svg in a XML editor before asserting it is also a "PNG image embedded into a SVG"? My intuition tells me you didn't. Günther Frager (talk) 20:49, 6 October 2023 (UTC)
    @Günther Frager No, I am not. Maharashtra is one state of India similar to West Bengal. Both their files have exactly similar licensing info, with their vector images being self drawn by the authors from source links mentioned in their file pages.
    Regarding your second point, there are more than 30 states of India. None of them have been proposed for deletion, and all of them have similar data & licensing formats uploaded by different authors. Why only West Bengal one is getting deleted, inspite of being present in public domain and following all copyright rules. It's completely unfair. Rourib.2004 (talk) 21:13, 6 October 2023 (UTC)
    Yes, you are comparing apples to oranges, and if you want to continue with your unverified claims you can check that the emblems of Arunachal Pradesh, Chandigarh, Lakshadweep,Telangana and perhaps other ones are upladed in enwiki under fair use because there are no free licensed versions available. Günther Frager (talk) 21:39, 6 October 2023 (UTC)
    @Günther Frager All the states you mentioned don't have any resemblance, nor do they fall in the category/league of West Bengal. Maharashtra and Tamil Nadu are the only ones which you can compare with West Bengal. I don't care about them. Just because you say my claims are unverified, doesn't mean that they are unverified. I repeat my arguments: Maharashtra and West Bengal have same licensing info, and since the former exists on WikiCommons, so will the latter without any disturbances. I will not let this symbols get deleted and make the articles of the Indian state of West Bengal emblem-less. Rourib.2004 (talk) 15:02, 7 October 2023 (UTC)
  •  Comment The user @Rourib.2004 also modified the content of the temporarily undeleted file, and among other things removed the source where the image was taken. I didn't revert the changes to avoid conflict with the user. The original version in case anyone needs it is here. Günther Frager (talk) 18:50, 6 October 2023 (UTC)
    @Günther Frager I just cleaned the page and updated the licensing info as I said earlier in my arguments to make the files meet the WikiMedia Commons copyright standards. The source is not removed, it is still present in the summary box of the file pages. The link which was mentioned outside the infobox following improper syntax was deleted. That's not the source of the image. The file page also contained random names of wiki users (in places where they aren't supposed to be) which I removed. Please don't comment without prior knowledge.Rourib.2004 (talk) 18:59, 6 October 2023 (UTC)
    The file was undeleted for discussion so the participants can check their doubts, not to modify its content. The link with "improper" syntax happens to be the link I cite in the comment that you "mistakenly" deleted. Based on what you say it is not the source if they are identical? Günther Frager (talk) 19:31, 6 October 2023 (UTC)
    @Günther Frager Please get this clear. The source link [11] mentioned in the "summary" box of the file page, is from where the vector image has been self drawn by the uploader.
    I don't know how the foreign link (that you mention and cite in your comment) has reached the file page of the West Bengal emblem. It is not from where the logo has been uploaded in commons, whereas the fact that both of them will look identical is obvious. Rourib.2004 (talk) 20:24, 6 October 2023 (UTC)
    You can use the history to see the link is there since the page was created. How do you know the uploader draw it? Why is it obvious they are identical? Did the uploader made a digital replica? You know, if you are skilled enough to make a replica of a Picasso painting you are still violating his copyright. Günther Frager (talk) 21:12, 6 October 2023 (UTC)
    @Günther Frager What is wrong with you? You can contact the original author @Mouryan to know whether he drew it or not. Both me and him are residents of West Bengal. The one which he drew will obviously be identical to the one which was in that foreign link as both of them are identical images. I don't know how you find copyright violations in this scenario since these are intellectual property rights of the Government of West Bengal, who themselves authorise that others can use this symbol (emblem) in internet without any special permissions, provided that the source must be prominently acknowledged. They don't have any problem, why are you having? Rourib.2004 (talk) 21:31, 6 October 2023 (UTC)
    I said it was unlikely the uploader draw the image, and gave plenty of arguments to support it, you claimed he draw it and still you didn't give a single one. It is your duty to support your claims not mine. You can also verify that this image and this image are not identical. You are telling that the uploader took the inspiration from the former and made sure it was not identical but somehow managed to produce an identical copy of the latter. Regardless, the link you provided before with the T&C is, as I pointed you out before, not compatible with COM:L: "free of charge" is not the same as free license. Günther Frager (talk) 22:15, 6 October 2023 (UTC)
    @Günther Frager You cannot decide whatever you want to. Your arguments are completely baseless. I have told you, if you have any doubts, please contact the original author whose ID I have mentioned. The images are identical as the one which is uploaded is vector-drawn using Inkscape, from the latter one. I literally don't want to argue with you anymore.

Commons:Deletion requests/Files uploaded by Giorgio Pallavicini

@Ellywa: I don't see a consensus to delete these. There seems to be some animus toward upscaled images, because there is a conflation between AI upscaling and AI generated de novo images. Upscaling does nothing more than we have been doing in Photoshop for decades, making the image larger and smoothing out the resulting grain/noise. If it was done by hand in Photoshop in multiple steps, instead of using a one step AI, there would be no protest. --RAN (talk) 04:24, 6 October 2023 (UTC)

I think, the cause that prevailed in the DR was that we do not want to support sockpuppeters. I would  Support undeletion of particular images if an established user wants to use it in Wikimedia. But detailed info which image and where would be needed. Otherwise  Oppose undeletion for not supporting sockpuppeters. Ankry (talk) 18:27, 6 October 2023 (UTC)
  • It seems that you want to punish the uploader, but can't, so you are punishing the images themselves. So, if I performed the same upscaling with a different program, and reuploaded similar images, we would all be ok with that? That is the absurdity of the situation, of punishing the images. Our goal is to not just provide images for in-house use, only 25% ever are used. We also provide images for external users. --RAN (talk) 21:01, 6 October 2023 (UTC)

File:John Sloan and Xavier J. Barile in Cowboy Hats.jpg

We respectfully request that this photograph be undeleted.

To establish the approximate date of the Sloan/Barile snapshot, we offer this:

  1. As per well-known biographical details, from about 1919 to about 1948, John Sloan spent his summers painting in Santa Fe.
  2. Between 1940-1946 Xavier J. Barile was living in Pueblo, Colorado (see biographical details in Barile's Wikipedia article) and often traveled around the Southwest.
  3. So, Barile visited his friend Sloan in Santa Fe in one of the summers in the interval 1940-1946. During that summer visit this snapshot was made by an unknown photographer.

Our reasons for undeletion are as follows:

  • The snapshot was part of Xavier J Barile's personal photo cache and was never published. The snapshot was inherited by Barile's only heir.
  • We have learned that unpublished works that existed as of January 1, 1978, entered the public domain at the end of 2002, or life of the photographer plus 70 years, whichever is greater.
  • Given that we cannot possibly know when the unknown photographer died, we think that it is reasonable to assume that this old snapshot is within the Public Domain as an unpublished photograph made many years before 1 Jan 1978.

Please let us know if there is anything else we can do to support this undeletion request. Thank you for your attention. 2601:8C3:8578:5D50:B111:2CFC:E3C5:422E 00:15, 7 October 2023 (UTC)

As with File:Xavier J. Barile (1891-1981), an American artist.jpg, without proof of publication this has a US copyright until at least 1/1/2061. See File:PD-US table.svg. .     Jim . . .

@Dlwldms: The image uploaded to Commons is higher resolution and non-watermarked unlike the image at the "source site".

Commons:Deletion requests/Files uploaded by Giorgio Pallavicini redux

Debate closed early based on an incorrect assumption. The closer wrote that the images remain deleted based on the following rationale from another commenter: "Scaling an image to specific size is a basic function of a web server; it is not necessary to have different sizes of images for this purpose". Scaling an image on a web page does not add resolution, a fuzzy-small-noisy image made bigger is just a big fuzzy-noisy image with the grain made larger. Image scaling removes the noise by smoothing the grain and strengthening borders. --RAN (talk) 19:53, 8 October 2023 (UTC)

The requests were closed five months after they were opened and there wasn’t much of a debate anymore. And no, these historical fake photos shouldn't be restored. They significantly alter the physical appearance of the subjects and shouldn't be used in an encylopedic context. --Polarlys (talk) 20:10, 8 October 2023 (UTC)
  • I am talking about the deletion review debate, closed during a holiday weekend. You are confusing image scaling with AI-generated fake images, they are different concepts. Read the Wikipedia article on mathematically based image scaling. We allow photoshopped images all the time, so long as identified as such. We fix tears, remove dust, adjust contrast and brightness. Image scaling is not fake, it is mathematically based on making the image larger while reducing noise. These are not deep fake or AI-generated images. The process takes what was multiple steps in Photoshop and performs them in a single step. --RAN (talk) 21:57, 8 October 2023 (UTC)

  •  Oppose Image scalling can be done on-the-fly by Wikimedia software. No need to reupload images scalled up or down. Current practice is to delete such images as duplicates. Starting discussion about changing this policy does not require image undeletion. But UDR is not the right venue for such discussion. Ankry (talk) 23:40, 8 October 2023 (UTC)

A few files from CC-licensed Nickelodeon videos

This applies to:

both SPEEDY'd by Yann, as well as (not SD'd, but nominated or connected):

It is true that all these files contain images from SpongeBob SquarePants. But this is not an instance of license laundering. If these were files contained in a CC-licensed video under a fair use rationale, then it would be wrong to claim that the video license applies to those elements, which are not owned by the video's creator. But these files are videos (or screenshots) released by Nickelodeon, which is the original copyright holder. The elements are not included under a fair use rationale.

Both of these sources directly from Nickelodeon/Paramount (the original copyright holder) show the CC-BY 3.0 license is applied: 1, 2. As you'll see on YouTube, NickRewind is a verified channel (and operated by Nickelodeon/Paramount, the original copyright holder for these items). D. Benjamin Miller (talk) 17:50, 9 October 2023 (UTC)

 Info Fair Use content is not accepted in Wikimedia Commons. Fair Use is not compatible with CC-BY license, so granting CC-BY license to a work that is derivative of Fair Use content is most likely copyright violation itself. CC-BY license does not allow any restriction about licensed work and its derivatives (eg. extractions). Ankry (talk) 18:01, 9 October 2023 (UTC)
I know. I'm just contrasting this with fair use content. This was not properly licensed (not fair use) content because the CC-BY uploader is the Nickelodeon/Paramount, the copyright holder for SpongeBob SquarePants. D. Benjamin Miller (talk) 18:07, 9 October 2023 (UTC)

 Support The first two files are derived from videos at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lCp4kX8T-gI NickRewind which appears to be an official Nickelodeon web site and which is licensed CC-BY.

— Preceding unsigned comment added by LKCOM (talk • contribs) 12:41, 11 October 2023‎ (UTC)


@LKCOM the file on the title doesn't exist. I think that you are referring to File:Ricardo_Gomes_Formula_4.jpg. Please ask the author of the photo to follows the instructions on COM:VRT. Notice that the copyright holder is in general the photographer and not the person being photographed. Günther Frager (talk) 13:00, 11 October 2023 (UTC)

(Edit conflict)  Oppose The deleted file is probably File:Ricardo Gomes Formula 4.jpg

  1. Owning a paper or digital copy of a photograph does not give one the right to freely license it as required here. That right almost always belongs to the photographer.
  2. Letters of the sort above are not acceptable here -- they are far too easy to forge.
  3. The letter above falls far short of an CC-BY-SA license. It is, for one thing, not irrevocable and says nothing about derivative works.
  4. The letter ends "...under a free license and without commercial purposes." That is an NC license which we do not permit.

This could be restored if either (a) the actual photographer sends a free license using VRT or (b) Gomes sends a free license together with a copy of the written license from the actual photographer which authorizes Gomes to freely license the work.

Also note that your claim to have been the actual photographer is a serious violation of Commons rules, makes it hard to believe anything you say, and could lead to your being blocked from editing here. .     Jim . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 13:02, 11 October 2023 (UTC)

the 2 others that are also from my collection of photos that've been deleted are: File:Пишталки од с. Ѕвегор (Пијанец) и Двојанки од с. Шипковица (Радовишки Шоплук).png; File:Дудуци изложени во Музејот на Македонија.png


I think these is among the most reasonable ones, along with some manaki brothers uploads (many of his images have been uploaded here, consider giving these particular ones a chance):

File:Брачен пар од с. Железнец, Железник.png; File:Жени во невестински носии од Демир Хисар, Железник.png; File:Мајка со дете во носии од с. Цапари, Ѓаваткол.png; File:Семејство во носии од с. Цапари, Ѓаваткол.png; File:Семејство во носии од с. Дихово, Горните Битолски Села.png; File:Брачен пар во носии од Мариово.png; File:Семејство во носии од с. Буф, Леринско Поле.png


Finally, some files which I only hope will be undeleted:

it was taken in 1957; File:Млади мажи на собор во с. К'шање, Овче Поле (1936).png; File:Жители на с. К'шање, Овче Поле (1936).png; it was taken in 1930; it was taken in 1952; it was taken in 1940; it was taken in 1955; it was taken in 1985; 

 it was taken in 1954;  it was taken in 1959


if I remember more, might make a final request later on (or maybe not, i don't know for sure)

@Big ooga booga mf: On-wiki licensing of photos related to {{Own}} authorship declaration is based on COM:AGF policy. This policy cannot be applied to users who uploaded copyright violations. They need to prove licensing or their authorship in some way, eg. while contacting VRT team. You failed to do so when requested. Ankry (talk) 11:12, 12 October 2023 (UTC)
when one of my files was reported, nearly every upload i've had was tagged underneath. I asked the mod who reported it what I should do to bring back most of the deleted files. Then I got linked to a template for an email thing which I realised was for copyright ownership, and since I don't own the copyright, or whether they're in the public domain or not (which I believe some of them are), then I had no idea what to do, and abandoned it there instead of seeking further help.
.
The first paragraph with images has ones I took with my phone and I believe should be restored
The second paragraph with images has ones that were taken from the manaki brothers, likely all before or at 1912 (some of which have been uploaded here before, like this one)
The third paragraph contains images from a book which I know the dates on, and which I hope fall under public domain. These I wholeheartedly believe will have the lowest chance of being approved
.
Sincerely, Big ooga booga mf (talk) 13:58, 12 October 2023 (UTC)

 Support The first three above:

Show up as:

source={{Own}}
author=Big ooga booga mf
permission=
other versions=
int:license-header
{{self|cc-by-sa-4.0}}
(formatting marks removed)

I see nothing obvious why we should not have accepted these as {{Own}}.

 Oppose The next seven were all the work of the Manaki brothers, Manaki (or Janaki) (1878-1954) and Milton (1882-1964). Works by either one are still under copyright in North Macedonia (pma 70). Any that can be proven to be the work of the older brother could be restored on 1/1/2025.

 Oppose The final batch were all taken after 1930 and therefore still have a URAA copyright in the USA. .     Jim . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 21:17, 17 October 2023 (UTC) .     Jim . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 21:17, 17 October 2023 (UTC)

glad the first were understood, the 2nd group has had 2 files uploaded here already, those being:
File:Bracen paro od Zeleznec vo nosija.jpg
File:Semejstvo od Capari vo nosii.jpg
.
while the third I do agree are more dubious, as I had them copied off a book, and I was relying off the dates mentioned about the images in said book Big ooga booga mf (talk) 18:40, 18 October 2023 (UTC)

✓ Done: only the first group. I'll directly add the second group to its appropriate undeletion category. (EDIT: Added them to Undelete in 2035 category page) --Abzeronow (talk) 16:18, 19 October 2023 (UTC)

File:Dobry Ruch logo.png

File was deleted as a copyright violation under category F1. Although Poland tends to set its threshold of originality low, it appears as though logos of political parties in Poland are considered public information per II SAB/Wa 714/15, and are thus ineligible for copyright.

Picture was taken with my camera. Could you please specify the reason for deletion? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Silverslay (talk • contribs) 17:59, 19 October 2023‎ (UTC)

 Oppose User:Silverslay, when you uploaded the image you claimed that you were the actual photographer. Now you say only "Picture was taken with my camera".

  •  Oppose - 1) Silverslay purports to be Marcelo Pont (note actual uploader, Martinpont, is a sock of Silverslay), who is a subject in this non-selfie photo. Copyright initially vests in the author (photographer), not the mere subject--which that diff also demonstrates this person does not understand; evidence thus must be provided by the former; and 2) the image previously appeared here in 2019, well before the 2022 Commons upload.

can you please help me to recover the photo because original photo was uploaded by me only and metadata was there in photo. t think the photo was intentionally deleted. Sumedhdmankar (talk) 10:19, 20 October 2023 (UTC)
I've temporarily undeleted it. It has EXIF but doesn't point to a particular camera or cell phone. No hits on TinEye. Abzeronow (talk) 15:47, 20 October 2023 (UTC)
 Support Lack of metadata can not be the only reason for speedy deletion. Thuresson (talk) 16:52, 20 October 2023 (UTC)
 Oppose There are two photos. They were taken likely one after the other and there is an important difference in one Ambedkar is smiling and in the other he is not. Moreover, the different versions where uploaded by different users, and the Profile Copyright metadata has two different profiles (Apple vs Google). The latter can be explained as one image was cropped and software could have altered it, but how is it possible that two people had access to two nearly identical images? Sumedhdmankar did upload several copyvios in 2022 including an image of Ambedkar (deletions were not merely missing Exif data). I think we need a COM:VRT or a good explanation.

 Support I checked the links and they seem OK. The link https://library.artstor.org/#/asset/SS7730479_7730479_10846868 is a negative with ascension number gerasa-b289~01 b-289 (I didn't find the object id) that correspond to the "Yale University Art Gallery: Dura-Europos Collection" and the other provided link https://duraeuroposarchive.org/image-rights/ states that both "YUAG Dura-Europos Content", and "Royal Ontario Museum Dura-Europos Content" have CC0 license. The acronym YUAG correspond to Yale University Art Gallery. The deletion was due to expiring date on "No license" automatically added by AntiCompositeBot. I see that Alexafang made a mass upload and probably didn't have time to fix the issues on time. I would recommend them to first test uploading a small batch to check the generated content is correct before uploading a huge amount of files that lack essential information.

  • 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..
  • @RDPFLAME: Images must be freely available in both its country of origin and the US. These images are not in the public domain in the US. Anything published in Argentina since 1st March 1989 is automatically copyrighted in the US where protection is at least 70 years. That date is when the US entered the Berne Convention. Besides, you cannot use {{Not-PD-US-URAA}} on files published in 1997 when URAA date was 1st January 1996. Moreover, you can only use the template with files uploaded before 1st March 2012 (see documentation). If you upload any image published in Argentina between 1971 and 1989 you need to provide evidence that their copyright was not restored at URAA time, for example if they were published simultaneously in the US without a copyright notice. I hope it helps to clarify the issues with your uploads. Günther Frager (talk) 22:33, 21 October 2023 (UTC)

Aquí está el primer artículo de la ley de derechos de autor [17] y no dice nade ni de logos ni de licencias libres:

Artículo 1.- Las disposiciones de esta Ley protegen los derechos de los autores sobre todas las obras del ingenio de carácter creador, ya sean de índole literaria, científica o artística, cualesquiera sea su género, forma de expresión, mérito o destino. Los derechos reconocidos en esta Ley son independientes de la propiedad del objeto material en el cual esté incorporada la obra y no están sometidos al cumplimiento de ninguna formalidad.

This appears to have been a privately owned airline, so I don't see how their logo is a "flag" or a "coat of arms."

File:Aimee Interrupter backstage 2019.jpg

Hello, this Flickr photo was deleted even though it appeared to have the proper license for Wikimedia Commons. The Flickr user has updated the license any way to meet the Commons' requirements. I would like to request the photo be undeleted and restored as it is a more current and relevant photo of the subject.

Thank you

File:Thiago em setembro de 2023.jpg

hello! i'd like to have this image undeleted. i believe it is important to keep thiago lacerda's page updated - and by doing so, it would be needed to have a recent photo of him. although it is a screencapture/screenshot of a talk-show he was in, the source was linked in both the file and the wikipedia page.

Cognacqueen (talk) 21:49, 24 October 2023 (UTC)

 Oppose we don't host copyright violations. We only accept screencaptures of TV-show that have a free license. If you need a recent photo, then either find a freely licensed one or take one yourself. Günther Frager (talk) 22:28, 24 October 2023 (UTC)

Alexander Julien

Page was deleted by User:Jameslwoodward on July 10, 2023 with the reason "All of these images are subject to DR -- this can be restored if at least two are kept." As per discussion of files at Commons:Deletion requests/Files on Alexander Julien, the consensus was that all images nominated for deletion by Jameslwoodward be kept; closed on October 24, 2023 by User:Ellin Beltz. In view of this, the page should be eligible for undeletion.Bricks&Wood (talk) 04:55, 25 October 2023 (UTC)

 Oppose The cited Dr includes the following:

"The main band member/guitarist/person in discussion, Alexander Julien, wrote back that the two photographers in question, Jeremy Roux and Rain Frances, would be happy to provide the necessary permission tickets via email if required to keep these images. The band is happy to have images on here."

It seems to me that we need that, as it is clear that the Flickr license is not valid. .     Jim . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 13:03, 25 October 2023 (UTC)

Hey Jim, while I appreciate your opinion and feedback, you have to admit that the consensus was in favor of keeping all the images you slated for deletion. The Flickr license issue that you already brought up in the image deletion request was overruled. In view of this, the page you deleted (without a proposal) is now eligible for recreation, based on the very reasoning you stated when deleting the page. You said if at least 2 images were kept, it could be undeleted. All 7 images were kept, so, therefore, the page should be undeleted. Bricks&Wood (talk) 03:47, 26 October 2023 (UTC)

@Bricks&Wood: There is no need to undelete, you can recreate the gallery page if it fits polucy. The restriction about reupload applier to files only. The previous content was:

  • 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 - Butler County, Pennsylvania work -- and out-of-process recreation at that. One wonders what part of "This only applies to original works of the Federal Government and not to the work of any individual U.S. state, territory, commonwealth, county, municipality, or any other subdivision" (bold in original) is unclear. Эlcobbola talk 14:23, 25 October 2023 (UTC)

    It was used in multiple newspaper releases spanning over a decade, am I mistaken to believe that this is PD? DoggiestDoggo (talk) 15:05, 25 October 2023 (UTC)
    That is not a reason to guarantee it is in the public domain. Newspapers could, for example, get an authorization from the county, or rely on fair-use, something we don't allow in Commons. Günther Frager (talk) 15:21, 25 October 2023 (UTC)

File:Luke-j-wilson-author-photo-2018.jpg

This is my own photo, which was previously flagged as copyright violation from my own business Facebook page, as seen here: https://www.facebook.com/photo/?fbid=699354538088212&set=a.699354508088215

I have since updated and added a license to the photo description on Facebook to show that it is now CC BY-SA (https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/), so hopefully this is enough to have it restored.

--LukasAurelius (talk) 11:14, 26 October 2023 (UTC)

@LukasAurelius the copyright holder of a photo is usually the photographer and not the person that has a copy of it. If you are the person depicted in the images (what I get from your message), then you should ask the photographer to send the permissions to COM:VRT. You may also take a look at COM:SELFIE, as we only allow personal photos of active member. As far as I can see you are only working on a Wikipedia entry about yourself.

File:Tusharr_Khanna_Wikipedia_Page_Undelete_Request.jpg


To the Wikipedia Deletion Review Team,

I am writing to request the undeletion of Tusharr Khanna's Wikipedia page and related files, which were deleted due to copyright concerns. I have attached the necessary permissions from Mr. Khanna, granting Wikipedia the right to use his images and data on his Wikipedia page.

The reasons for this request are as follows:

We have secured explicit consent from Tusharr Khanna for the use of his images and data, ensuring full compliance with Wikipedia's guidelines.

The Wikipedia page is an essential platform for disseminating accurate and updated information about Tusharr Khanna, and it is in the best interest of the Wikipedia community to have access to this content.

Your prompt attention to this request is greatly appreciated.

Good afternoon,

This file was deleted without noticing that the reference points to the website of the club itself (which I've fluid contact with its board).

If the same criteria were applied to all the badges of all Uruguayan teams, none should be shown.

Then, I request you reupload the file.

Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by VH1982 (talk • contribs) 20:58, 27 October 2023‎ (UTC)

  • 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 Clear copyvio (logos taken directly from an official website). The logo itself is above threshold of originality. The user also seems to have uploeaded it ignoring a previous deletion request about the same logo that he also uploaded. Günther Frager (talk) 21:23, 27 October 2023 (UTC)

The image was licenses with CC, the person who deleted did not check the source. This is a common mistake. People often miss vimeo's licensing banner. Could you please undelete.

 Oppose The Vimeo account is a Turkish production company, and it has a sample of the projects they were involved. The company that pays for their services and not the one hired holds the copyright. In this particular case it is Disney the copyright holder and not 25 Film. That license is bogus and likely an error while creating the account. I observed this pattern over and over on Vimeo: small companies and individuals licensing with CC-BY content that they were hired for, but that they clearly hold no intellectual property. Maybe free account requires CC-BY licenses?. Günther Frager (talk) 22:51, 27 October 2023 (UTC)
