Leonardo's horse edit

Latest comment: 16 years ago2 comments2 people in discussion

Hallo.

To have any deleted image restored you simply have to open an undelete request explaining why in your opinion the deletion was not justified. The page is here http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Undeletion_requests and you find it referred to in any deletion logs.
The reason to delete this image is that the statue is the work of a contemporary artist, Nina Akamu, who inspired herself to Leonardo's horse, but it is not a copy of the horse. Whatever the inspiration, she is the actual author. This is not a cast (in which case there would be no problem) but a 3d rendering of something that before she sculpted it did not exist. It is even questionable whether it is right to call it a "Leonardo"'s horse.
Although Akamu donated the statue, the copyright belongs to her. A permission by her is requested to put the image under a free license. In case she donated the intellectual rights to the Comune di Milano, it is the Comune who should give the permission. In case the copyright was donated to the public domain, such in the following case, http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Chicago_Picasso , the donation should be documented. In fact, the copyright by default always belongs to the artist for the mere fact of creating the work of art, and after his/her death to his heirs for 70 years. The artist needs not to file any request to obtain the copyright, this is a right that come with the very act of creation.
The fact of shooting and donating the images is relevant, since you own the copytight on that image and you may in fact donate it, but does not change the fact that you only own the actual picture, not the copyright on the statue.
The fact of the statue being in a public place does not affect what I said, since Italy has no Freedom of panorama in its laws books. In Germany or in the Netherlands it would, but the two copies of this statue are in Italy and the Usa, neither of which allows Freedom of panorama for statues.

I hope what I answered to be "sensible" :-) --User:G.dallorto 15:04, 19 January 2008 (UTC)Reply

It was... at least sensible enough for me :-). Thanks a lot for your elaborate response! Guess it shows I shouldn’t trust my limited knowledge about the subject and "intuition" when it comes to (international) copyright laws. Thanks again. --Van helsing 15:29, 19 January 2008 (UTC) (note to self: some background info)Reply

This media was probably deleted.

Thanks for uploading File:Baldwin red devil.jpg. This media is missing permission information. A source is given, but there is no proof that the author or copyright holder agreed to license the file under the given license. Please provide a link to an appropriate webpage with license information, or ask the author or copyright holder to send an email with copy of a written permission to VRT (permissions-commons@wikimedia.org). You may still be required to go through this procedure even if you are the author yourself; please see Commons:But it's my own work! for more details. After you emailed permission, you may replace the {{No permission since}} tag with {{subst:PP}} on file description page. Alternatively, you may click on "Challenge speedy deletion" below the tag if you wish to provide an argument why evidence of permission is not necessary in this case.

Please see this page for more information on how to confirm permission, or if you would like to understand why we ask for permission when uploading work that is not your own, or work which has been previously published (regardless of whether it is your own).

The file probably has been deleted. If you sent a permission, try to send it again after 14 days. Do not re-upload. When the VRT-member processes your mail, the file can be undeleted. Additionally you can request undeletion here, providing a link to the File-page on Commons where it was uploaded ([[:File:Baldwin red devil.jpg]]) and the above demanded information in your request.

Your account will be renamed edit

Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Van helsing. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Van helsing~commonswiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours,
Keegan Peterzell
Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation

If you do not like this account's new name, you can choose your own using this form after logging in: Special:GlobalRenameRequest. -- Keegan (WMF) (talk)
