File:Bruce Gilley on Chinese politics.ogg has been marked as a possible copyright violation. Wikimedia Commons only accepts free content—that is, images and other media files that can be used by anyone, for any purpose. Traditional copyright law does not grant these freedoms, and unless noted otherwise, everything you find on the web is copyrighted and not permitted here. For details on what is acceptable, please read Commons:Licensing. You may also find Commons:Copyright rules useful, or you can ask questions about Commons policies at the Commons:Help desk. If you are the copyright holder and the creator of the file, please read Commons:But it's my own work! for tips on how to provide evidence of that.
The file you added has been deleted. If you have written permission from the copyright holder, please have them send us a free license release via COM:VRT. If you believe that the deletion was not in accordance with policy, you may request undeletion. (It is not necessary to request undeletion if using VRT; the file will be automatically restored at the conclusion of the process.)

- It was not copyrighted, you should have asked me, instead of just deleting it, this is not very corporative, and if i look at the description on your page, about blocking anyone you don't like, I think it says a lot. TheRoyalTrust (talk) 17:07, 23 January 2023 (UTC)
- https://www.c-span.org/about/termsAndConditions/ reads You agree not to use the Content for any commercial use without the prior written authorization of C‑SPAN.

- The terms page is for C-span's own materials like logo's commercial's advertising banners and those things.
- You should have looked at this page instead, which is about copyright and licensing of content that appears on C-span: https://www.c-span.org/about/copyrightsAndLicensing/
- it says:
- Under C-SPAN's copyright policy a license is generally not required to post a recording of C-SPAN's video coverage of federal government events online for non-commercial purposes so long as C-SPAN is attributed as the source of the video. However, simultaneous streaming or retransmission of the C-SPAN networks' video coverage of any event not in the public domain, live or recorded, may not be posted under any circumstances without a license. Keeping a C-SPAN logo on the screen during the non-commercial use constitutes sufficient attribution under this policy. TheRoyalTrust (talk) 17:47, 23 January 2023 (UTC)
- Video coverage of the debates originating from the chambers of the U.S. House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate is in the public domain and as such, may be used without restriction or attribution. TheRoyalTrust (talk) 17:55, 23 January 2023 (UTC)
- Ah, I see, the last sentence does it. Please request undeletion at COM:UNDEL. Pinging Herby on the fly. --Achim55 (talk) 19:39, 23 January 2023 (UTC)
