Urdu edit

Hi. File:Naseer Ahmed Khandowa.jpg does not look like an own work. Can you see in Urdu language sources if it was published before? Thanks in advance or all the same if you cannot. Happy New Year. --E4024 (talk) 22:20, 25 December 2020 (UTC)Reply

Hi E4024. Thanks; to you, too!
I could find another version of it here (this is the uncropped version), published in February 2020. File:Naseer Ahmed Khandowa.jpg was uploaded in August, so I think it needs OTRS permission. Ahmadtalk 20:04, 26 December 2020 (UTC)Reply

copyright edit

Hello Ahmad, the photo I posted is a photo I made of a portrait of my grandfather. Munir El Jundi is my grandfather - how is that a copyright fault? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mayaak1803 (talk • contribs) 17:02, 27 December 2020 (UTC)Reply

Hello Mayaak1803. The reason why I tagged File:Tuer der Kaaba Munir El Jundi.jpg.png is that it needs a license, but please note that the copyright holder of a photo is its photographer, not the person depicted in it. Hence, the photo cannot be hosted on Commons unless the photographer/copyright holder releases it under a free license. Ahmadtalk 21:28, 28 December 2020 (UTC)Reply

Brachfield.jpg edit

You left a message on one of my pages, stating that one of the images I used may lead to copyright issues. I just wanted to stop the concern, that this is untrue Its clearly public domain on the promise to link the author, which is GOOGLE STREET VIEW! WTF? Google Street View clearly states that without attribution they will consult all this copyright b******t. I clearly said, google street view like 8 times, in the description. Why would street view confront me when they clearly say that people are allowed to use the footage with attribution. — Preceding unsigned comment added by TableSalt342 (talk • contribs) 16:12, 11 January 2021 (UTC)Reply

@TableSalt342: Hello. Based on [1], I don't think using content from Google Street View is permitted on Commons. The guideline clearly states that "For commercial uses where our mapping products are used for revenue-generating purposes, such as integrating Google Maps or Street View into a mobile or web app, use Google Maps Platform instead". In other words, Google does not allow using content from Google Street View for commercial purposes. That alone is problematic, because Commons does not accept "no commercial" licenses (please see COM:L). If you have any questions, please feel free to ask.

Greenlandic audio files edit

Hi there, this has been asked of me before. All of the audio files I have, and will be, uploading are made using open source, copyright-free software which generates AI audio files of Greenlandic terms. I also have emails from the website that runs the software to confirm that I can use it and upload to Commons. 109.145.62.155 16:41, 11 January 2021 (UTC)Reply

Hi. In that case, please replace the no license tag with a license tag. Please see Commons:Copyright tags if you need to find a license tag. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask. Thank you. Ahmadtalk 04:04, 12 January 2021 (UTC)Reply
All my audio files were deleted? Jakeybean (talk) 02:25, 26 January 2021 (UTC)Reply
@Jakeybean: Yes, because a license was not added within one week. But they can all be restored if you can provide a license for them. Please see COM:UD for more info. Ahmadtalk 10:27, 26 January 2021 (UTC)Reply

Regarding the message I received from you edit

Hello Ahmad,

I'm turning to you following a message I received from you on my page.

I will note that I am writing this letter using translation software, so the language may not be accurate.

I uploaded to Wikimedia a picture of a rabbi with a grandson in family joy. This is a picture taken in 1936. It has since been printed many times in various places, and it has never been mentioned that it has any copyright on it.

It should be noted that another image from the same event taken by the same photographer, and which is always published along with this image, already appears today on the Wikipedia page.

My intention was to upload this image to a page on Wikipedia as well. I did not understand why it did not work.

Need to re-upload the image and write that it is a completely free image. There is no reason why thousands of Wikipedia users should not enjoy the free image.

I hope to cooperate with you for the benefit of the users.ידך-הגדושה (talk) 17:08, 11 January 2021 (UTC)Reply

@ידך-הגדושה: . Hello. In that case, do you know who the photographer is? If not, is there a way to find out? Also, where was this photo taken? I'm asking these questions because it might be possible to tag it as public domain, which is acceptable here on Commons. Thank you. Ahmadtalk 05:01, 12 January 2021 (UTC)Reply
Hello Ahmad,
I do not know who the photographer who took the picture was. The photo was taken on January 14, 1936, in Warsaw, Poland, as stated on this page, in connection with another photo from the same event: (https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:%D7%94%D7%A8%D7%99%D7%99%22%D7%A6_%D7%91%D7%91%D7%A8_%D7%9E%D7%A6%D7%95%D7%94.jpg).
The other image that is already published today on Wikimedia and Wikipedia, appears many times along with the image I uploaded. The 2 photos are from the same event.
If I had more knowledge of how to operate in Wikimedia, I'm sure I would have been able to upload the image freely just like the other image.
I thank you for any help in this matter for the sake of the benefit of users "Wikipedia".ידך-הגדושה (talk) 09:06, 12 January 2021 (UTC)Reply
@ידך-הגדושה: Hello. Thank you. I also have another question, and then, I believe, we will know how to deal with these photos. I apologize for not asking it in my previous message, I forgot to add it. My question is, when was the first time these photos were published? Specifically, was it before 1951? Thanks in advance. Ahmadtalk 00:52, 14 January 2021 (UTC)Reply
Hello Mr. Ahmed
I know this picture was published in the press in 1936. I have now embarked on a search campaign on library sites, to find press clippings from 1936 and locate the relevant picture. The picture also appeared in a booklet called "Speech Collections" which was then published by the fans of the rabbi in the picture. This is what was written on one of the websites. I'm trying to find this book in the library soon.
Thank you very much.ידך-הגדושה (talk) 16:32, 14 January 2021 (UTC)Reply
@ידך-הגדושה: Hello. Thank you.
Based on what you said, I think the photo is in the public domain in Poland. However, it's most likely not in the public domain in the United States (Wikimedia Commons can only host photos that are free, both in their source country and the United States), because it doesn't meet requirements for either {{PD-US-expired}} or {{PD-1996}}. In almost 10 years, it will be in the public domain in the US and can therefore be hosted on Wikimedia Commons. There are some other US public domain licenses, such as {{PD-US-1978-89}}, available here, which might prove to be useful. Please let me know if you think the photo is in the public domain in the US. Thank you. Kind regards, Ahmadtalk 12:48, 16 January 2021 (UTC)Reply
Hello Mr. Ahmed,
I understand that the fact that the photo was published in Poland in 1936 is not so enough. I understand that only if the photo had been published in the US in 1936, would it have been better.
I can not say for sure that the relevant US press also published this photo in 1936. It may or may not.
I'm sure it's possible to find the right way to upload the image according to Wikimedia rules.
I thank you very much for the time you devote to this matter.ידך-הגדושה (talk) 17:22, 17 January 2021 (UTC)Reply
Hello. You're welcome. I thank you for your understanding and your efforts. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions. Ahmadtalk 22:49, 17 January 2021 (UTC)Reply

Whaled for adding a deletion tag to my art edit

Template:Whale --Fallencow30 (talk) 22:29, 11 January 2021 (UTC)Reply

@Fallencow30: Well, I'm not going to lie, that hurts, which isn't surprising because that's a fairly big whale :) That being said, you must add a license tag to the file (see COM:L). I noticed that you haven't done so, so I'll restore the tag. Please add one and remove the tag afterwards. Just one question: are you the creator of the textures used in the image? Ahmadtalk 05:14, 12 January 2021 (UTC) no, the textures in the image are from sketchpad 5.1 as it was made in sketchpad 5.1 --Fallencow30 (talk) 13:02, 12 January 2021 (UTC)Reply

File "El Cid y Jimena" edit

Hi Ahmad, Thank you for your message about a phtograph I uploaded.

I have received a response from the museum at which the painting is, and they tell me the copyright still belongs to the family. They gave me a telephone number but I have not been able to contact them yet. I am afraid the image should be deleted for the time being.

I do not know how to do this, though. If you could help I would appreciate.

Thank you and happy New Year. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Alf B (talk • contribs) 17:13, 12 January 2021 (UTC)Reply

@Alf B: Hi. Thank you, and happy New Year to you, too. We can give it some time (almost one week) if you think you can get a response by then. Alternatively, I can delete it now, but it can be easily restored in the future. However, based on COM:CSD, I will need your consent for the second option. With that in mind, which option do you think is the best? On a side note, I know you said "I am afraid the image should be deleted for the time being", but, just to be sure, I thought it would be better if I ask you before taking action. Thank you. Ahmadtalk 01:38, 14 January 2021 (UTC)Reply

Hello Ahmad, It is alright for me to have it deleted by now. I do give my consent to use the photograph image in the future. Kind regards — Preceding unsigned comment was added by 77.227.136.11 (talk) 12:54, 16 January 2021 (UTC)Reply

@Momimariani1962: Hello. Sorry for writing in English. Unfortunately, I don't know Italian, but I will use Google Translate to provide an Italian translation below.
The reason why I have tagged these photos is that they don't have a license. However, it is my understanding that the sources you mentioned above don't release their content under an acceptable license. If that's the case, I'm afraid these photos can't be hosted on Wikimedia Commons, unless you can contact the photographer/copyright holder and ask them to release their work under an acceptable license, by sending a release statement to OTRS. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask. Ahmadtalk 12:16, 16 January 2021 (UTC)Reply
Ciao. Scusa per aver scritto in inglese. Sfortunatamente, non conosco l'italiano, ma userò Google Translate per fornire una traduzione italiana di seguito.
Il motivo per cui ho taggato queste foto è che non hanno una licenza. Tuttavia, mi risulta che le fonti che hai menzionato sopra non rilasciano il loro contenuto con una licenza accettabile. In tal caso, temo che queste foto non possano essere ospitate su Wikimedia Commons, a meno che non sia possibile contattare il fotografo/detentore del copyright e chiedere loro di rilasciare il proprio lavoro con una licenza accettabile, inviando una dichiarazione di rilascio a OTRS. In caso di domande, non esitare a chiedere. Ahmadtalk 12:16, 16 January 2021 (UTC)Reply

If I'm not mistaken, you wish to request deletion for one or more of your uploads. If that's the case, you can tag your recently uploaded photos with {{SD|G7}}.

@Ryan Trassante: Hello. I apologize for writing in English. I will use Google Translate to provide a Portuguese translation below.
Wikimedia Commons can only host photos that are licensed under certain licenses, such as CC-BY and CC-BY-SA licenses. Please see COM:L for more information. I checked the source you mentioned above, but it appears that the content of that website is not available under a free license. Another option I can think of is threshold of originality. It basically means that if a work, such as a logo, is too *simple*, it is ineligible for copyright and is therefore in the public domain. I think this logo is below the threshold of originality, both in Brazil (its source country) and the United States. Therefore, I tagged it as {{PD-textlogo}} and removed the no license tag. No other action is currently needed. Thank you. Ahmadtalk 22:32, 20 January 2021 (UTC)Reply
Olá. Peço desculpas por escrever em inglês. Vou usar o Google Translate para fornecer uma tradução em português abaixo.
O Wikimedia Commons só pode hospedar fotos licenciadas sob certas licenças, como as licenças CC-BY e CC-BY-SA. Consulte COM:L para obter mais informações. Verifiquei a fonte que você mencionou acima, mas parece que o conteúdo desse site não está disponível sob uma licença gratuita. Outra opção que posso pensar é limite de originalidade. Basicamente, significa que se uma obra, como um logotipo, for muito * simples *, ela não poderá ser protegida por direitos autorais e, portanto, será de domínio público. Acho que esse logotipo está abaixo do limiar da originalidade, tanto no Brasil (país de origem) quanto nos Estados Unidos. Portanto, marquei-o como {{PD-textlogo}} e removi a etiqueta sem licença. Nenhuma outra ação é necessária no momento. Obrigado. Ahmadtalk 22:32, 20 January 2021 (UTC)Reply

@Ricardo I. Cárdenas: Hi. Unfortunately, I think the license of neither image is acceptable on Wikimedia Commons. ESA does not allow commercial use, but Commons requires the license to allow commercial use (please see COM:L), so it's not acceptable, unless it meets the requirements mentioned here. I'm not sure about Melissa, but it seems to me that it's not acceptable either. Nevertheless, I will start a regular deletion request for it to allow discussion.

Please participate in the Universal Code of Conduct consultation on Wikimedia Commons! edit

Dear Ahmad252

Thank you for your hard work to create the sum of all knowledge that is freely sharable to every single human being across the world. As our diverse community grows, we need a guideline that will help all of our work collectively and constructively where everyone feels safe, welcomed, and part of a team. That is why the Wikimedia movement is working on establishing a global guideline called the Universal Code of Conduct, often referred to as UCoC.

After the months-long policy consultation, we have prepared a policy (available in many languages) that has been ratified by the Board of Trustees. We’re currently in the second phase of the process. During this round of consultation, we want to discuss the implementation of this policy. As a member of the functionary team of Wikimedia Commons, your opinion on enforcement is of great value. We want to hear from you on how this policy can be enforced on the Wikimedia Commons community and what might be needed to do so. There are a few enforcement questions so you can easily outline your answers based on them. Please do not hesitate to bring any more questions/challenges you think are not yet discussed.

The discussion is taking place on Commons:Universal Code of Conduct consultation. You can also share your thoughts by replying to this message (Please ping me so I get notified), posting your message on my talk page. I am aware that some thoughts cannot be expressed publicly, so you can always share your opinion by emailing me as well.

As a valued member of the Commons community, please share your thoughts, ideas, and experiences that relate to UCoC. Let us know what needs to be improved so we can build a more friendly and cooperative space to increase editor engagement and retention of new users.

Wikimedia projects are governed by you. So, it is you who needs to step up to ensure a safe, comfortable, and pleasant working environment.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Re deletion of Ray Martin Orchestra Leader photo edit

Dear Ahmad,

Can you please 'undelete' this photo? It is from a personal collection so I can add the tag ' {{self|GFDL|cc-by-sa-all}} ' if needed.

Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Theenglishway88 (talk • contribs) 00:29, 20 February 2021 (UTC)Reply

@Theenglishway88: Hello. I think you are referring to File:Raymartinorchestraleader.jpg. If that's the case, I can undelete it, but first I have to ask a question: Are you the photographer of this photo? (And if the uploaded photo is a photo of another photo, are you the photographer of both photos?) I also noticed that you mentioned the photo is from your "[p]ersonal collection", and that you "believe it was a promo photo freely released to public". Please note that owning a copy of a photo, or any other artwork, doesn't (necessarily) mean you are its copyright holder. If you believe the photo is in the public domain, is there any evidence supporting it? Thank you. Kind regards, Ahmadtalk 11:10, 20 February 2021 (UTC)Reply

Apologies for the late reply. I didn't take the photo myself - it was taken in the late 40s/early 50s, therefore the photo is now in the public domain "For photographs taken before June 1, 1957, Crown copyright expires 50 years after the creation of the image". — Preceding unsigned comment added by Theenglishway88 (talk • contribs) 02:44, 13 March 2021 (UTC)Reply

@Theenglishway88: Thanks. In that case, and I'm assuming that Crown copyright applies here, I can undelete it. Just one question: you might be asked to provide evidence proving the photo was taken before June 1, 1957. Is that possible? Thank you. 20:06, 13 March 2021 (UTC)Reply

I believe so. The style of clothes worn in the photo is one example and then there's his youthful appearance, taking into account the fact that he was born in 1918. Can you please therefore undelete it? Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Theenglishway88 (talk • contribs) 21:02, 25 March 2021‎ (UTC)Reply

Thanks. I undeleted the photo, but also nominated it for deletion. After one week, the deletion request (DR) can be closed, but it may take longer, especially for complicated cases. The photo will be accessible for as long as the DR is open. Ahmadtalk 00:30, 26 March 2021 (UTC)Reply

Thanks. When I get around to it, I'll see if there's a date on the picture. Can't promise anything though. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Theenglishway88 (talk • contribs) 21:58, 28 March 2021 (UTC) I've found this photo online which was taken in the 1950s: shorturl.at/uHOPV As you can see, Ray is noticeably older in that photo, meaning that the one I provided must therefore be in the public domain. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Theenglishway88 (talk • contribs) 22:46, 28 March 2021 (UTC)Reply

my page about the affaire Mittaine edit

Hi Ahmed, you notified me about possible copyright issues on my page about the affaire Mittaine. But these are all pictures of more than 100 years old, two of them are old postcards and one (the painting) comes from a public website. I shall try to source them better, but I do not think they breach copyrights.

@Salomon83: Hi. Unfortunately, I think they are still copyrighted. The author of both works is Lucien Porcheron, and if I'm not mistaken, he died in 1957. According to copyright rules of France, I believe that both works are still copyrighted, and will be in the public domain on January 1, 2028. We can still add them to Category:Undelete in 2028 so that administrators will undelete them once they are no longer copyrighted. If I have missed anything, please let me know. Thank you.

Fouad Brini's picture edit

Hello Ahmad, I'm contacting you about the copyright status of the image that I uploaded about Fouad Brini. I've added several national and international sources to prove that this is the person in question. Thanks for your feedback. --105.154.60.207 15:48, 22 February 2021 (UTC)Reply

ببنید عزیز، عزیز دل

من یک لوگوی ساده به شکل بُرداری از شبکه افق ساختم ، یعنی با

نه به شکل پیکسلی فقط با کد نویسی ، آن هم به عنوان غیر رسمی

اما این دوستمون سر لجبازی خداییش پیدا کرده و اومده فایل بنده پاک کرده و گفته کپی رایته، که هر چی براش حرف خدا پیغمبری براش میخونم درست گوش نمیده و مرغش یک پا داره.

بعدش میگم شما ادعا داری خب ثابت کن، بعدش خودت میتونی ببینی چی میگه

که من در جواب خود اون یک سند محکم از جایی دیگه به رسمی، و قانونی نشونش دادم، که ببین اونجوری علکی گیر نده.

که خود شما میتونید ببنید.

که متاسفانه در اخر برای من پیامی گذاشتند که اصلا نه در شأن ویکیپدیا بود و نه در مسئولان پاسخگویی مدیران ویکی پدیا بود.

حال گفتم اصلا ادامه ندهم و موضوع را به شکل درست از طریق شما پیگیری. تمام

@Behnam N: سلام مجدد. ممنون. حدس می‌زنم منظورتان File:IRIBOmid.svg است. در این صورت، صحبت ایشان صحیح است. درست است که شما نسخه اس‌وی‌جی را طراحی کرده‌اید، اما اصل ایده متعلق به طراح اصلی لوگو است. آن نکته‌ای که شما به آن اشاره کرده‌اید، تریدمارک/نماد بازرگانی است. آن هم البته مهم است، اما صحبت در این‌جا در خصوص کپی‌رایت/حق نشر است. این لوگو چه نماد ثبت‌شده‌ای باشد و چه نه، باز هم حق نشر آن برای سازنده‌اش محفوظ است (یا شاید برای مدیریت شبکه، اگر به واسطه قرارداد منتقل شده باشد). دقت کنید که حق نشر مرتبط با کل ایده اثر است. علاوه بر این، قانون حق نشر ایران آستانه اصالت را بسیار پایین می‌گیرد و تقریباً هیچ طرحی را، هر چقدر هم که ساده باشد، فاقد اصالت لازم نمی‌داند. در نتیجه، حتی اگر لوگو را بازسازی هم کنید، باز حق نشرش برای سازنده اصلی محفوظ است. راهی که من پیشنهاد می‌کنم این است که لوگو را ببرید به ویکی‌پدیای فارسی و آن‌جا به‌طور محلی تحت استفاده منصفانه بارگذاری کنید. با این اقدام، حذف نخواهد شد و خواهید توانست در مقاله مربوط به آن هم از آن استفاده کنید.

خواهش می‌کنم. عذرخواهم، من ابتدا صفحه بحث کاربر:4nn1l2 را بررسی کردم و تا به صفحه بحث شما رفتم تا پرونده مرتبط را پیدا کنم، امید و افق را با هم اشتباه گرفتم. با این حال، باز هم توضیح مربوط به آن دقیقاً مشابه بالاست. COM:TOO Iran (و نیز Commons:Copyright_rules_by_territory/Iran/fa) را ببینید؛ قانون حق نشر ایران خیلی سخت‌گیرانه در این زمینه عمل می‌کند. پیوندهایی که شما در آن صفحه ارائه داده‌اید را دیدم ولی همچنان که گفتم، آن در مورد علامت تجاری (trademark) است؛ مرتبط با {{Trademark}}. حق نشر و علامت تجاری، جدای از هم هستند. علائم تجاری وجود دارند که از آستانه اصالت پایین‌ترند و در نتیجه در مالکیت عمومی هستند (مثال: File:Virginian Herald.svg). آثاری هم وجود دارند که علامت تجاری نیستند ولی آزاد به شمار نمی‌روند و نمی‌توان در انبار از آن‌ها استفاده کرد.
در مورد استفاده منصفانه، لطفاً w:fa:ویکی‌پدیا:محتوای غیرآزاد را ببینید و از w:fa:وپ:بارگذاری برای انجام آن استفاده کنید («جلد آلبوم، کتاب، دی‌وی‌دی، تصاویر غیرآزاد، نشان (لوگو) تجاری، نمونهٔ صوتی، و هر محتوای دیگری که حق تکثیر دارد» را انتخاب کنید). Ahmadtalk 22:03, 25 December 2020 (UTC)Reply

Hello. Unfortunately, I still believe these files are not free. The sources you added do not have any indication of publication under a free license, and even if they did, some are derivative works, so the uploader of the video on YouTube is most probably not the copyright holder of each photo and cannot release them under a free license.

Hi. Thanks. I closed it and deleted the file.

Help needed edit

Salam Ahmad252, I need your help. As you probably noticed, for many months I'm fixing Iranian architectural history here on Commons and on Wikidata, and sometimes I'm also merging duplicates on Persian Wikipedia (mostly made by bots). Today, one user (Luckie Luke) reverted my edits and restored three duplicates (first, second, third). I do understand histories sometimes need to be merged, but for bot-made articles I don't consider it to be of such importance. I asked Luckie Luke to merge it, but he don't understand English (I wrote it on English because it's much faster, I do have basic knowledge of Persian). Furthermore, he sent me some warning about sock puppetry which is bizarre, I used only this account for 12 years. I really don't understand him. Anyway, can you please merge above-mentioned three articles? Otherwise Wikidata bots will start to make duplicates there and again we'll have a mess. --Orijentolog (talk) 19:30, 4 May 2021 (UTC)Reply

@Orijentolog: Salam. I'm not an expert, but from what I can remember, there are many such duplicates on Persian Wikipedia (I think User:Hanooz is more familiar with these). As for these three, I think the other articles, the ones you redirected them to, should be merged into them (for example, w:fa:کاروانسرای فخر داوود should be merged into w:fa:رباط فخرداود; not the other way around), because those pages seem to have the official title chosen by Iran's Ministry of Roads and Urban Development (As a rule of thumb, the articles created by Rezabot usually have the official title, most likely because the bot created these by using the official database). I will merge them in a couple hours (I might make a mistake if I do it right now, because I'm a bit tired). Ahmadtalk 12:54, 8 May 2021 (UTC)Reply
I suggest you make a list of these duplicates and ask Persian Wikipedia users to merge them. Or just ping Ahmad252 or me if you had any trouble there. Hanooz 18:47, 8 May 2021 (UTC)Reply
Thanks Hanooz, I will. --Orijentolog (talk) 19:31, 8 May 2021 (UTC)Reply
OK, thanks a lot, take your time. Of course I'm not familiar with the local rules regarding merging on Persian Wikipedia (could be official, more popular, larger or older), but the important thing is to recognize and mark duplicates. Admins or more experienced users will understand is it A-to-B or B-to-A, and merge them after my marking. Speaking of official registered names, keep in mind that sometimes they are ambiguous & unencyclopedic (example: Karevansaray-ye sangi (qaleh-ye sangi)) or outdated (example: Mabad-e Khorheh), not to mention other wrong data like outdated shahrestans which split into new ones, historical periods which have meanwhile been refuted in the professional literature, and so on. Another big problem with Persian Wikipedia are wrong coordinates, they are incorrect in more than half of the cases I have encountered.
That's the reason why I'm concerned about duplicates on Persian Wiki, sometimes bots will make duplicates on Wikidata, with automatic importing all above-mentioned wrong info. And if they're merged too late, we'll have a mix of correct and wrong info on both Wikidata and Commons infoboxes. It's frustrating for me because in some cases I was spending hours to find proper coords, scholarly articles about architectural dating, correct administrative units, and so on. If you're generally busy in this days, I'll also inform Hanooz, 4nn1l2 and others to help. In meanwhile I found one more case [2][3]. --Orijentolog (talk) 19:30, 8 May 2021 (UTC)Reply
@Orijentolog: Thanks. Yes, unfortunately, creating thousands of bot-made articles on Persian Wikipedia has at times resulted in duplicates, inaccurate articles, etc. The official database was, I think, created almost ten years ago, and it has not been updated since then. And then there is also the problem with unsourced material in some of these articles, as you mentioned.
But I might have an idea that can help us deal with these duplicates. Since it's a relatively big change, I left a notice on Persian Wikipedia's technical village pump. I will hopefully have a list of duplicates in two or three days, unless someone opposes the proposed change (unlikely, I think). I don't think I can personally work on merging these in near future, but at least there will be a backlog ready for anyone interested.
I also merged all the duplicates you mentioned above. Ahmadtalk 09:51, 9 May 2021 (UTC)Reply
@Orijentolog: I apologize for the late response. You can find it here (thanks to User:Huji). 14 of these have the registration number 21, but not all of these are duplicates (one is actually a featured article). Other than those, articles listed on the page are most likely all duplicates (I haven't checked all of them, though). Still, feel free to ping me or Hanooz if you think it should be discussed first. Thanks. Ahmadtalk 22:05, 14 May 2021 (UTC)Reply

About the deletion of Logo Africa Re.jpg edit

Hello Ahmad252

I uploaded the "Africa Re" company logo jpg ( press release for new africa re logo : https://www.africa-re.com/uploads/content/download_translation/download/4c67bb8b-b27e-4e27-a572-fda3797158cf.pdf ) to Commons two days ago .

As most companies have their logos on Wikipdia and as Commons authorizes the use of logo for company as Africa Re (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Logos) I would like to create a "request undeletion" for this logo file.

Please also note that most of re/insurance company have their logos (fair use) on wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swiss_Re#/media/File:Swiss_Re.svg https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scor#/media/Fichier:Logo-scor.png https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assicurazioni_Generali#/media/File:Assicurazioni_Generali_logo.svg

Could you provide me with the steps (to do on Wikipedia) for Africa Re to have its logo on Wikipedia (as the other companies)?

@Nicolas Bek: Hello. You can request undeletion here, but it may get rejected because the logo is likely to be above COM:TOO Nigeria. However, you do not necessarily need to request undeletion. If you want to use it under fair use, you should upload the logo on Wikipedia, not on Commons (fair use is not allowed on Commons, but it is allowed on English Wikipedia). On English Wikipedia, you can do so by going to w:en:Wikipedia:File Upload Wizard and using the "Upload a non-free file" option on the said page. Ahmadtalk 01:09, 19 July 2021 (UTC)Reply

Re: Copyright Issues with images edit

Hi,

Received a message from you on my talk page. I would like to follow up with that.

Thanks for flagging up the issues of copyright with the images that I uploaded. I sourced them from an open, public Telegram group where the images of Hong Kong protest art were shared. The images are not created by me. When I submitted the images, I've uploaded the link of the Telegram group as the source that I found it. However, in fact it is not very clear on the Telegram group what copyright license there is with the images.

With that in mind, what is your suggestion if I have to resubmit the images and seek copyright permission to upload that?

Many thanks.

@BubblesOscar: Hi. I'm afraid we may need to delete them if their copyright status remains unclear. Wikimedia Commons only accepts images that are released under a free license, and, per the precautionary principle, images with unclear copyright status are also subject to deletion. That said, it is still possible to "rescue" these files: if there is a way to contact the copyright holder(s)/designer(s) of these images, you can contact them and ask them to release their art under a free license, such as a CC-BY or CC-BY-SA license. They can do so by using COM:relgen (please see COM:VRT for more info). If you have any questions, please feel free to ask. Thank you. Ahmadtalk 23:53, 19 July 2021 (UTC)Reply

Unfortunately, most of the files on the Internet are not published under a free license; this includes most of album, book, video game, movie etc. covers.
I also have a question regarding File:Dion-cools.jpg: when I try to open the source of the image, I hit a 404 error. Could you please check that and let me know if you can open it? Thank you. Ahmadtalk 17:35, 9 November 2021 (UTC)Reply

OK I understand. Oh And I've corrected the link to the source of the picture.TIm actually just joined a few weeks ago so I'm sorry if I made some easy mistakes.Thanks a lot. Azhan Zikri (talk) 12:47, 10 November 2021 (UTC)Reply

@Azhan Zikri: Thank you. Just one more thing: on the new source page, I'm unable to see a Creative Commons license. If the copyright holder has released the content under a free license, could you please ask them to indicate this on the YouTube page, or to send an email to permissions-commons wikimedia.org, releasing the content under a free license (COM:RELGEN can help with that; please see COM:VRT for more info about the process). Thanks. Ahmadtalk 19:22, 10 November 2021 (UTC)Reply

The source that I take is from youtube channel of TV channel in Malaysia.So each of their videos is a snippet of the whole that is shown on the TV channel.I'll try my best to contact the owner and clear the issue.Thanks Azhan Zikri (talk) 08:26, 11 November 2021 (UTC)Reply

@Azhan Zikri: Thank you. In that case, I'll open a deletion request for it, with a link to your comment here. If, within at least 7 days (it may take longer than that), it is proved that the file has been released under a free license by its copyright holder, it will be kept. Otherwise, it will be deleted. It can, of course, be undeleted in the future if the copyright holder agrees to release it under a free license. Ahmadtalk 19:36, 12 November 2021 (UTC)Reply

If VTRS doesn't respond,are the image still getting deleted? Azhan Zikri (talk) 01:05, 13 November 2021 (UTC)Reply

@Azhan Zikri: VRTS agents will most likely respond shortly after receiving an email from the copyright holder, and will also add a tag to the file page, letting administrators know that the file should not be deleted. And even if the file is deleted for whatever reason, VRTS agents will take care of the undeletion process when they receive a valid release statement. This is true even if the release statement is received long after the deletion. Ahmadtalk 10:21, 13 November 2021 (UTC)Reply

VGuenova - about 2 files' unclear copyright edit

Subject: copyright info missing and added - what next steps

Hello Ahmad, and thank you for indicating that I needed to add clearer copyright information about two files I have uploaded in Wikimedia Commons. These are my first steps in Wikipedia and I might not be that strict yet, but I'm trying and learning. I have edited the info about these two files (in Bulgarian), and now I wonder: do I also have to delete your tags indicating licensing shortcomings after my edits, or is this your role to hopefully delete these after reviewing my files' info? I don't know what I should (not) do, and I am afraid that in 7 days the files will be automatically deleted, which is quite undesirable for our team of contributors. Thank you for clarifying this to me. Best regards, V.

Here are the two files: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:%D0%A3%D0%BA%D0%B0%D0%B7_%D0%B7%D0%B0_%D0%BD%D0%B0%D0%B7%D0%BD%D0%B0%D1%87%D0%B0%D0%B2%D0%B0%D0%BD%D0%B5%D1%82%D0%BE_%D0%BD%D0%B0_%D0%A2%D0%BE%D0%BC%D0%B0_%D0%A1%D1%82._%D0%A2%D0%BE%D0%BC%D0%BE%D0%B2_%D0%B2_%D0%A1%D0%A3.jpg https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:%D0%A1%D1%82%D1%83%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BD%D1%82%D0%B8_%D0%B8_%D0%BF%D1%80%D0%B5%D0%BF%D0%BE%D0%B4%D0%B0%D0%B2%D0%B0%D1%82%D0%B5%D0%BB%D0%B8_%D0%BF%D0%BE_%D1%80%D0%BE%D0%BC%D0%B0%D0%BD%D0%B8%D1%81%D1%82%D0%B8%D0%BA%D0%B0_%D0%B2_%D0%A1%D0%A3_-_8-%D0%B8_%D1%81%D0%B5%D0%BC%D0%B5%D1%81%D1%82%D1%8A%D1%80_1942_%D0%B3.jpg — Preceding unsigned comment added by VGuenova (talk • contribs) 13:52, 8 November 2021 (UTC)Reply

@VGuenova: Hello, and welcome to Commons.
Thank you for licensing your files. I removed the tags, but you can always do it yourself after adding a license (you can, of course, ask other editors personally or on the copyright village pump or the help desk if you need any assistance, but this is not necessary). I should probably also note that, even if the tag isn't removed within 7 days, the file will not be automatically deleted; an administrator will need to manually check if the tag is (still) valid before deciding to delete/keep it, so if the file already has a license, the administrator will just remove the tag instead of deleting the file (unless there is some other issue with the file).

Gravitas Ventures edit

Ahmad - thanks for the information on copyright for the Gravitas logo. I did a screen shot. I used criteria from WP:MOS to place the logo on in the infobox of the article. "Note that non-free logos should only be used in the infoboxes of the primary article(s) to which they are affiliated; i.e. a company logo may be used in the article about that company, but not in a separate article about one of the company's products." I clearly need to do more. Can you help me through this? It's a little confusing. Cleveland Todd (talk) 15:14, 9 November 2021 (UTC)Reply

@Cleveland Todd: WP:MOSTM refers to fair use on English Wikipedia, which is not allowed on Commons. For non-free logos, you'll need to upload them locally on English Wikipedia under fair use (please see w:en:WP:FAIR for more information). In this case, however, the logo may be below the threshold of originality (too simple to be protected by copyright) and, therefore, allowed on Commons. I will start a deletion request (DR) for it. Even if it is deleted after the DR is closed, you can upload it locally on English Wikipedia under fair use. Ahmadtalk 18:09, 9 November 2021 (UTC)Reply

Problems with the License Agreement (Marshal 10000) edit

Hello Ahmad, you recently deleted most of my downloaded files due to a license violation. However, the source and author of my uploaded photos are indicated correctly, yes, sometimes the sources from which I took the photo did not indicate the author, so I indicated the site where this file was placed as the author. The CC-BY-SA 4.0 license agreement allows free copying and distribution, and even in commercial purposes (Although Wikipedia is not a commercial site), on the basis of this, I downloaded the files. Although I thought that the file that is on the site with open access, a priori is available to everyone. What exactly infringed Copyright? And what's my problem? --Marshal 10000 (talk) 22:44, 12 November 2021 (UTC)Reply

@Marshal 10000: Hello. I think there might be a misunderstanding. Most of the files on the internet are not released under a free license, even if they are available on a website for everyone to see. For an image (or any other media file) to be licensed under a CC-BY-SA 4.0 (or any other) license, there should be an explicit statement from the copyright holder indicating its release under that license (for example, Fars News explicitly states that "Fars News Agency is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License"). Please see COM:L for more information.
I was unable to find one such license on any of the sources. If, however, it was there and I have missed it, please let met know. Thank you. Ahmadtalk 10:10, 13 November 2021 (UTC)Reply
@Ahmadtalk Good afternoon, there really was probably a misunderstanding. I'm wrong that I indicated incorrect license data, but there is a licensing guide CS 10001 [4]. It's about the Montpellier Airport License Agreement [5]. Copyright holder SA Aéroport Montpellier Méditerranée ©. It is very important for me to keep the photos that have been removed from the Montpellier-Mediterranean (airport) article, I am trying to make the article 'Good quality', but deleting the files does not allow me to do this. Of course, I can give a photo under a different license agreement, but other photos do not cover the whole article --Marshal 10000 (talk) 10:55, 13 November 2021 (UTC)Reply
@Marshal 10000: I read the notice on the Airport's website and also had a look at the licensing guide (though I could not read it all as it was quite long; if there is a specific (range of) page(s), please let me know), but I couldn't find a license suitable with the criteria mentioned here.
On a separate note, about promoting the article to the "Good Article" (GA) status, according to my experience on Wikipedia, an article can be promoted to the said status without the use of too many images if free images of the subject are not available (see w:en:WP:GACR: "Illustrated, if possible, by media"). And, regardless, copyright policies take precedence, and one of the GA criteria is also containing no copyright violation. If images on the internet are not free, I'm afraid we cannot allow them on Commons. Still, however, emailing airport management might help, as they can release at least some of their content under a free license (see COM:VRTS). Ahmadtalk 22:05, 15 November 2021 (UTC)Reply
@Ahmadtalk Hello, there is no such section about the image in the introduction to the licensing manual, there are not big statements about the use of files for non-commercial purposes. All the same, for increasing in GA, I wanted at least a few images to be present in the article. The images are, in principle, on the creative commons website (images on this site are allowed for distribution, under certain conditions), however, there are very few of them on this site about Montpellier airport, they are not of high quality, and do not have any significance. In principle, I can contact the airport management (although I don't even know if it will make any sense) by email, but even if the airport provides a written or any other permission, I do not know how to provide it to you --Marshal 10000 (talk) 17:30, 16 November 2021 (UTC)Reply
@Ahmadtalk I read about volunteering. As far as I understand, by contacting volunteering, can they help me with obtaining a license? --Marshal 10000 (talk) 17:40, 16 November 2021 (UTC)Reply
@Marshal 10000: Yes, but only the copyright holder (the airport management?) will need to contact VRTS. They can use COM:RELGEN, which will help them produce a release statement and then send it to VRTS. VRTS agents will either tag the file(s) as free or, if there is an error in the release statement, ask the copyright holder to take necessary steps to fix said error(s). Ahmadtalk 16:27, 17 November 2021 (UTC)Reply
@Ahmadtalk Of course, I am not very versed in this matter, especially since I am not a lawyer. That is, I mean that: I will write to the copyright holders to provide the VRTS file, and VRTS will create the file for free use on Wikipedia, do you mean that? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Marshal 10000 (talk • contribs) 17:35, 17 November 2021 (UTC)Reply
@Marshal 10000: Yes, more or less. The copyright holder will need to email VRTS with an statement indicating the release of the file under a free license (it's better if they use COM:RELGEN or COM:CONSENT; but even if they don't, VRTS agents will guide them through it). VRTS agents will take care of the rest. Ahmadtalk 20:51, 17 November 2021 (UTC)Reply
@Ahmadtalk I see, thank you very much for your help. Then tomorrow I will write an appeal to the airport administration. I hope all will be good. And I will also tell them about COM: RELGEN --Marshal 10000 (talk) 22:02, 17 November 2021 (UTC)Reply
Thank you. If you have any questions, feel free to ask. Ahmadtalk 22:06, 17 November 2021 (UTC)Reply
@Ahmadtalk sure --Marshal 10000 (talk) 22:07, 17 November 2021 (UTC)Reply

FYI (Typo on your page) edit

Hello.

I was just looking over your account, and noticed that the little 'widget' (don't know what else to call it) on your user page denoting your alt account has a typo. If you hover over the widget, it reads: "My alternative acconut." Thought you might want to know...that's all.

Have a good one!
--Born of Iron (talk) 19:18, 30 November 2021 (UTC)Reply

@Born of Iron: Hello.
Thank you! I just fixed it, though I'll need to have a look at it on other projects to make sure I haven't just copied it around. Best, Ahmadtalk 20:02, 30 November 2021 (UTC)Reply
@Ahmad252
No problem! Like I said, just saw it (had a little laugh) and then thought I'd let ya know. Born of Iron (talk) 20:04, 30 November 2021 (UTC)Reply

How we will see unregistered users edit

Hi!

You get this message because you are an admin on a Wikimedia wiki.

When someone edits a Wikimedia wiki without being logged in today, we show their IP address. As you may already know, we will not be able to do this in the future. This is a decision by the Wikimedia Foundation Legal department, because norms and regulations for privacy online have changed.

Instead of the IP we will show a masked identity. You as an admin will still be able to access the IP. There will also be a new user right for those who need to see the full IPs of unregistered users to fight vandalism, harassment and spam without being admins. Patrollers will also see part of the IP even without this user right. We are also working on better tools to help.

If you have not seen it before, you can read more on Meta. If you want to make sure you don’t miss technical changes on the Wikimedia wikis, you can subscribe to the weekly technical newsletter.

We have two suggested ways this identity could work. We would appreciate your feedback on which way you think would work best for you and your wiki, now and in the future. You can let us know on the talk page. You can write in your language. The suggestions were posted in October and we will decide after 17 January.

Thank you. /Johan (WMF)

سوال edit

سلام خوبی کا

میگما که یک تصویر پوستری هست روی سایت شبکه ۱ صدا و سیما میخوام آپلودش کنم روی ویکیپدیا.

تو خود سایتش هم هیچگونه نه در اون صفحه و نه در صفحه های دیگه علامت کپی رایت رو قرار نداده. که یک جورایی فکر کنم یعنی آزاد

حالا میخوام ببینم میشه آپلود کرد که مشکلی نداشته باشه یا خیر.

اگر بله زهی سعادت و اگر خیر چه کار باید بکنوم که بشه.

یاحق.

@Behnam N: سلام. برای آزاد بودن یک تصویر (و در نتیجه، امکان بارگذاری‌اش در انبار)، این موضوع باید مشخصاً در منبع (در اینجا، وبگاه شبکه یک صدا و سیما) ذکر شده باشد، که معمولاً در مورد پوسترها صادق نیست. پوسترها را می‌توانید تحت شرایط خاصی (استفاده منصفانه) در ویکی‌پدیای فارسی به طور محلی بارگذاری کنید.
