Christian O'Brien's Grandson claim

Why are you lying here Zelenko? I don't recall Christian O'Brien having any Ukrainian grandchildren? [[1]] SpooksBGone (talk) 01:44, 11 February 2024 (UTC)

Seems I can't delete this. I've blocked this editor on en.wiki and of course Zelenko wasn't the one who said they were O'Brien's grandson. Doug Weller (talk) 12:09, 11 February 2024 (UTC)

Zelenko claimed that here [2] and is lying as Christian and Barbara Joy had no children. I am Anne O'Brien, Christian's Niece, who took that photo, which was different from the one deleted, so I should know. Why are you lying to delete photos of my Aunt and Uncle and persecute our family? SpooksBGone (talk) 12:21, 11 February 2024 (UTC)

Apologies, I mistook you for the Jstars780 account that lied and stand corrected. Please research unsubstantiated claims about people's families better however. SpooksBGone (talk) 13:22, 11 February 2024 (UTC)

License issue with File:1846 Ludvig Verner Helms Daguerreotype.jpg

Hello, I noticed the subject file I uploaded has been flagged for an incorrect license. I am relatively new at this, and would appreciate any assistance that can be offered. I have read the licensing help pages.

The image is an ancestor of mine (Helms), and the image is in the possession of my family. Helms died in 1918, in England. So, assuming he is the "creator" of the image, it looks like the image should have a public domain license.

However, a copy of the image was published in a book in England "The Borneo Story" in 1956. The image was provided to the author by Helms' family at the time. The image I've used was not copied from the book; it came from the original in our possession. At the time I uploaded, I assumed any existing copyright from the book would not apply to my image since it didn't come from the book. But now I'm not so sure...

Any advice would be appreciated. This seems to be a complicated situation (for me, at least) that crosses international boundaries (I am in US) and can remove the image if that is the safest approach.

Thanks! GuildCV1 (talk) 16:12, 25 March 2023 (UTC)

File:====㽅==== 1.jpg Copyright Problem

Hello. I am a Wikisource editor. I ported this file because it was an image taken by a South Korean national organization in charge of researching, collecting, compiling, promoting the study of historical materials on Korean history, called the National Institute of Korean History. The image was of a picture on an ancient historical text called the Veritable Records of the Joseon Dynasty. I don't know much about Copyright, but please tell me the appropriate Copyright of such content.

Features:

This file's picture was a portion of a larger picture taken by a South Korean national organization, in South Korea, of a page of a book so old it is undoubtedly in the public domain. What should the Copyright of such image be? Blahhmosh (talk) 03:37, 26 March 2023 (UTC)

@Blahhmosh: Public domain media should be tagged with proper public domain tag. See Commons:Copyright rules by territory/South Korea. Same applies for other similar files uploaded by you. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 14:28, 26 March 2023 (UTC)

OK, but how do I change the copyright of a file? Blahhmosh (talk) 16:17, 26 March 2023 (UTC)

Just click edit tab on file page and replace {{Cc-by-sa-4.0}} with {{PD-South Korea}}. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 15:23, 27 March 2023 (UTC)

File:Usada Pekora.png

I cannot understand why this file must be deleted. This picture is the screenshot of a video made by Sakura Miko upload on YouTube. It is licensed CC BY.  See here. The subject of the picture is Usada Pekora who is belongs to Hololive. And Sakura Miko is also belongs to Hololive. Despite they are belongs to same company, Why this picture is copyright violation？ 赤座 (talk) 15:31, 3 August 2023 (UTC)

Best way to sort out all possible copyrights issues (such video release may be not authorized by company) would be to ask company to send permission to Commons:VRT (example: Commons:Email templates. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 15:11, 4 August 2023 (UTC)

Yeah, I agree it is good way. Asking company to get copyright permission is certainly good way. I think so too. But, in this case, they already say "It can be use by CCBY" on YouTube channel. Despite they already gave permission to us, why I have to send email to them to get permission to use their works? When I upload the files, I certainly attached Template:YouTube CC-BY and links for their videos that licensed CC BY. And I have discussed already such a problem in Commons:Deletion requests/File:Natsuiro Matsuri.png. But you suddenly deleted the pictures and neglect such a things. I know my English skill is very poor, but I cannot help expressing dissent to your opinion.--赤座 (talk) 15:55, 4 August 2023 (UTC)

Please read Commons:Derivative works. Are you absolutely sure that everybody who place something on Flickr or YouTube under Creative Commons licenses understand that? --EugeneZelenko (talk) 17:22, 4 August 2023 (UTC)

If we follow your logic, we cannot use all works uploaded on YouTube or Flickr because the creator may not understand about Creative Commons licenses. And in this case, the creator of the video is belongs to the same company of the subject of the picture. Despite they are belongs to same company and they create the video due to their job, why do you think that they does not accept to use their works each other? In addition, I have an evidence to use the work that has been freely licensed for reuse because they indicate so on their YouTube page. I never reuse works without permission. By the way, User:Abzeronow restored File:Sakuramiko2.png because he estimated "Creation of the YouTube channel, which is freely licensed.". It is the part of pictures that you deleted few days ago.--赤座 (talk) 02:38, 5 August 2023 (UTC)

It's reasonable to do not accept blindly everything what is written on Internet. Same applies to media under Creative Commons licenses uploaded on Commons or other sites. In this particular case it's necessary to find out was particular employee authorized by company to release something or not. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 15:07, 5 August 2023 (UTC)

The photo you say is copyrighted is from a chat of mine with an artist, no one else in the world has it, only me on my phone, so it does not infringe copyright

You told me that any doubt I should speak to you, well my doubt is because you give me a copyright notice for an image that is from an instagram chat of mine with another person?????? what does that have copyright? I asked an author of a drawing if I could upload it as a photo in the vegeta article on wikipedia and he said yes and you say that this image violates copyright, when only I in the whole world has that chat image in his iphone?????? what's up friend? Why do you do that so unfairly, you invent that I stole my image from another side and that I infringed copyright laws when the image is from a chat of mine with another person asking for authorization for the aforementioned related to a Wikipedia article, instead of giving me this useful link https://commons.m.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Volunteer_Response_Team which is to ask for permission, you invent me to copy the photo that is on my cell phone and that no one else has because it is my instagram chat , with that link that I sent you, you have to ask for permission and not by chat, instead of telling me that you threaten to ban me, you could remove that unfair threat and help people with the link that I gave you since that is useful not to walk threatening people for false things like that they infringed copyright by putting a photo of a chat with an artist asking for authorization to upload a drawing of him for an article on wikipedia GokuJuan (talk) 22:33, 28 August 2023 (UTC)

https://imageshack.com/i/poGHdFWwp This is the image, I had to upload it there so you can see it again, I don't know why you say it has copyright? Where did you see her????? And the other images that I uploaded did not have copyrights either, only that in the Spanish Wikipedia they explained to me that a special permission is needed to put them and in the English Wikipedia they did not, that is why they deleted them, in no case did they have copyright GokuJuan (talk) 22:44, 28 August 2023 (UTC)

Please read Commons:Derivative works carefully. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 14:41, 29 August 2023 (UTC)

I already read it and it does not say that if you take a screenshot with your phone in a chat with another person, your image is magically a screenshot of another screenshot that does not exist on the internet, you invented that

In summary: you cannot trace someone else's copyrighted creative drawing and upload that tracing to Commons under a new, free license because a tracing is a copy without new creative content

That text is the one that appears in commons, in the link that you sent me and if you look for the photo of the chat it does not exist on the internet, therefore it is something 100% original to me, I am the author, stop making excuses for why you deleted me the photo unfairly without any justification, just because it occurred to you to say that it was a copy and now without it existing anywhere other than on my phone GokuJuan (talk) 01:28, 31 August 2023 (UTC)

This particular screenshot is Commons:Derivative work from anime/manga/comics. I'm strongly advice you to read copyrights law of your country and learn Commons rules. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 14:53, 31 August 2023 (UTC)

Obviously the anime image appears in the capture, but both in the name of the capture and in the description of the image, it writes that the image was a test which is a chat with the author of the drawing to be able to upload the image to wikipedia, in summary that image was the proof with the permission of the suto to be able to upload the drawing of him as a photo of oerdil of an article, but since you don't know Spanish you could not realize that, neither the content of the chat nor the end of the image which was to obtain permission from a library to upload the drawing to wikipedia (maybe even with what I explained to you just because the small image appeared in the capture, that is still a reason for copyright so I understand you if it is So) GokuJuan (talk) 02:21, 1 September 2023 (UTC)

Looks like you still do not comprehend that Commons:Derivative work means. Anime/manga/comics is not small part of this particular screenshot. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 14:15, 1 September 2023 (UTC)

File:ML-KNIL 2-VLG-V Logo.png

Hi there,

You have left a message on my personal talks page about the file i have uploaded onto commons. This file is a derivative work indeed, made by me. The original painting on the plane is in dutch public domain tho. Works created by a person for a company (in this case the Dutch East Indies Airforce, that dissovled in 1950 btw) are becoming public domain 70 years after it's creation. You can read this in this (on the official dutch website about copyrights) pdf document https://www.auteursrechten.nl/files/auteursrechten/2019-08/Vuistregels%20voor%20het%20vinden%20van%20gebruiksvoorwaarden.pdf under "WANNEER IS HET WERK PUBLIEK DOMEIN?" (when is a work public domain). Here it states that there are 3 ways for a work to become public domain (by Dutch laws). There it states that it becomes public domain, 70 years after passing from the author OR 70 years after publication/creation. The rhino was painted in 1940... so this is 83 years ago. Therefor it is in public domain.

Friendly regards,

Scarafax (talk) 08:12, 7 September 2023 (UTC)

Please add information about logo. Current file description tells that is created from photo, but logo is matter. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 14:54, 7 September 2023 (UTC)

File:Albert Eduard Stoové.png

This is a photo from my personal collection. Since he's my grandfather. The photo was made by a close friend from my grandfather (told to me by my grandfather himself) so he could give the photo to his, by then, girlfriend. Who became my grandmother. In Dutch law the same rules apply for photo's, 70 years after the creator had passed. However i do not know who made it (by name) and if that person still is alive or has died long ago... proberbly passed since it's a photo from just after the war, but i can't say if it's 70 years or more... so i have no proof for this photo, therefor you can delete it. The other photo from my grandfather, on the same wiki, is in public domain tho. It's from the Dutch Armed Forces, and more than 70 years old... also it is publicly available on the website of the Dutch Armed Forces.

Хаванне апісанняў змен у гісторыі

Вітаю, Яўген. Да мяне звярнуўся чалавек, не вікімедыст, каб прыбраў яго імя з апісанняў некаторых файлаў, у сувязі з магчымасцю пераследу ў рэальным жыцці. З актуальных апісаннях я прыбраў, але ў табліцах версій файлаў яно засталося. Напрыклад як тут, ці можна схаваць ад прагляду гэту ячэйку, як у самой Вікіпедыі адміны могуць рабіць? Дзякуй. -- Maksim L. (talk) 16:43, 20 October 2023 (UTC)

Дзякуй,Eugene, але бачна ўсё адно. Паглядзіце старонку файла, унізе табліца, у ячэйцы "Тлумачэнне" застаўся змест першай праўкі. Магчыма, трэба схаваць не толькі аўтара і апісанне, але і сам змест праўкі, каб знікла і гэта. Калі і гэта не дапаможа, можа, проста выдаліць і загрузіць нанова? -- Maksim L.

Питання до EugeneZelenko

Вітаю шановний колега.

Прошу допомоги з рятування унікальної бази даних в українській Вікіпедії, стаття "Сигарета", глава "4. Сигарети в Україні", розділ "4.5 Внутрішні українські виробники, марки й дизайни сигарет".

1. Я, Потапенко Володимир Дмитрович, провідний тютюновий експерт України, один з відомих світових експертів з ніковілії, власник найбільшої в Україні й однієї з найбільших в світі колекції сигарет й цигарок (40.000+ екземплярів). Моя колекція занесена в Національний Реєстр Рекордів України.

2. Декілька років тому в статті "Сигарета" в главі "Сигарети в Україні" я створив розділ "Внутрішні українські виробники, марки й дизайни сигарет", а в ньому таблицю з переліком всіх українських брендів й марок сигарет - тоді без фото.

3. Останні тижні я зайнявся додаванням в таблицю фото до кожної позиції. Всього таблиця вміщятиме до тисячі фото дизайнів сигаретних пачок, які вироблялися в Україні й на території України з 1945 по 2023 роки.

4. Всі фото різні, переважна більшість фото створені мною особисто сканером або фотоаппаратом, це фото пачок моєї власної колекції, яка зберігається в мене вдома (м. Дніпро). Менша частина фото зроблена на мій запит моїм колегою Яковенко Андрієм (Харків), володарем другої за розміром колекції сигарет в Україні. Ми з ним працюємо спільно під моїм керівництвом й моєю відповідальністю. Мізерна частина фото взяті в Інтернеті з відкритих джерел.--EugeneZelenko (talk) 16:20, 14 December 2023 (UTC)

5. Окрім мене ніхто в Україні не може якісно виконати цю роботу. Закінчення заповнення таблиці очікується за 2 тижні, в грудні 2023 року. Після цього будь-яка людина України зможе знайти фото сигарет, які вона палила в дитинстві або палить зараз, відслідкувати розвиток асортименту тютюнової продукції України. Додатково я організую рекламу цієї статті в міжнародних групах колекціонерів сигарет, що призведе до збільшення відвідуваності української Вікіпедії. Наведена інформація стане довідником по темі на багато десятиліть вперед.

6. Вчора я отримав попередження від Adamant1 про можливе вилучення майже всіх завантажених мною й викладених у статтю "Сигарета" тематичних фотографій. Я маю лише початкові знання з редагування Вікіпедії, тому виконую мінімально необхідний обсяг необхідної роботи. Очевидно, я не зробив всі необхідні дії - прошу мене вибачити й підтримати. Скажіть будь ласка: чи існує спосіб врятувати цю унікальну базу даних, й дозволити мені й надалі виставляти тематичні матеріали (фото), з яких я є експертом.

Щиро дякую за відповідь! Potapenkovd (talk) 21:54, 13 December 2023 (UTC)

Извиняюсь, но украинский не знаю настолько, чтобы на нём писать. Фотографии упаковок представляют собой производные работы. Вы можете сохранить те фотографии, где дизайн представляет собой простые геометрические фигуры и текст ({{PD-logo}}) или перешёл в общественное достояние в стране происхождения ( в Европе в основном через 70 лет после смерти автора). Кроме того, можно сохранить логотипы украинских компаний ({{PD-UA-exempt}}). --EugeneZelenko (talk) 16:20, 14 December 2023 (UTC)

Future undeletion request

Hi there! I have worked a bit on this draft about a software, and I notice that you nominated a file of its logo for deletion here due to lack of notability. The draft now has multiple secondary sources covering it in detail, like articles from the Miami Herald and La Nación. I plan to request undeletion if and when the draft is accepted. I have one question; was the logo just text (like this) or not (like this)? This is just to know whether the file would be eligible for {{PD-textlogo}}. ObserveOwl (talk) 21:44, 15 February 2024 (UTC)

One of files there was logo like in first link. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 16:00, 16 February 2024 (UTC)

Bot: Removing c:File:Christopher Marquis Headshot.png , deleted by EugeneZelenko

I am trying to figure out how to get a photo of Professor Christopher Marquis added to his Wikipedia page. I had emailed Professor Marquis and asked him to upload a photo of himself on https://commons.wikimedia.org/ that he would release under the commons license as free to use. He did this and notified me of the photo location on commons.wikimedia.org. I then used the photo in updating his Wikipedia page. This was then removed in short order by you. What would be the proper procedure in order to be able to use a photo that is owned with full rights by Professor Marquis? Is there some release statement that is needed by the rights holder to attest ownership of the photo? SwikityWikity (talk) 21:59, 12 March 2024 (UTC)

Photo does not look like selfie, so does Christopher Marquis own copyrights? This matter should be investigated first and than you could ask for permission from copyrights holder. See also Commons:VRT and Commons:Email templates. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 13:57, 13 March 2024 (UTC)

Yes, Christopher Marquis owns the copyright to that image. I will email and ask him to fill out and send the email template you provided. Thanks. SwikityWikity (talk) 14:24, 13 March 2024 (UTC)

hello gooday @EugeneZelenko please may I know why you delete the Xiao Yan.jpg all of a sudden? Because I don't think the picture violate any rules. Thanks Thisasia (talk) 14:41, 16 April 2024 (UTC)

It's hard to say about sudden, because you had multiple warnings on such matters on your talk page. Please read Commons:Licensing carefully before next upload. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 14:51, 16 April 2024 (UTC)

Deletion of Liliya_Podkopayeva.jpg

Євгене, вітаю. Бачу, що ви подали на видалення фотографії Лілії Подкопаєвої через можливий copyright violation. Я новачок у додаванні інформації на вікі та буду дуже вдячна вам за роз/яснення. Як краще відновити файл за умови, що це фото з архіву Лілії, не порушує авторських прав та вона його мені надала ОСОБИСТО? Дуже хочеться оновити інфо, бо карентне застаріле. Дякую за відповідь! Naruighich (talk) 15:49, 19 April 2024 (UTC)

Извиняюсь, но украинский не знаю настолько, чтобы на нём писать. Прежде всего надо выяснить, кому принадлежат авторские права: Лилии Подкопаевой или фотографу. После у обладателя авторских прав надо попросить послать разрешение в Commons:VRT (пример: Commons:Email templates). Потом Вы можете обратиться за помощью с проверкой разрешения и восстановлением файла на Commons:VRT/Noticeboard. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 14:35, 20 April 2024 (UTC)

Deletions

Hello, I've seen that you deleted two files that I uploaded: File:Mario Fireball.png and File:Dragon Quest IV Logo.png. Beforehand I have to say that I have no problem with this, especially the last image, but I'm not so sure about the Fireball one. That one was because it looked similar to a specific artwork? In that case, will I have the same problem if a draw a completely random fireball that has nothing to do with any game artwork?

Also, you only sent me the deletion message for File:Dragon Quest IV Logo.png, could you send me the one for File:Mario Fireball.png. Thank you in advance! --Anidae (talk) 15:36, 1 May 2024 (UTC)

File title implies that this was not random fireball. Please read Commons:Derivative works. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 17:15, 1 May 2024 (UTC)

Reupload

Hello EugeneZelenko, just a short note to let you know that the file you deleted earlier today for copyright reasons is back. --2003:C0:8F41:6C00:B555:7991:2F77:6644 16:15, 11 May 2024 (UTC)

P.S. While we're at it, I strongly assume that this one is a reupload of the one that was deleted after this discussion. --2003:C0:8F41:6C00:B555:7991:2F77:6644 16:23, 11 May 2024 (UTC)

Permission via Commons:VRT was provided for File:Ddoe 02 2024d.jpg. Unfortunately I could not see deleted files for File:Gleichwertigkeit Bildungsabschluss..jpg, probably because of technical glitch, so I could not tell if files are same. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 14:16, 12 May 2024 (UTC)

Well, in some versions, it seems to have had one dot (like the reupload), and in others two (File:Gleichwertigkeit Bildungsabschluss.jpg vs. File:Gleichwertigkeit Bildungsabschluss..jpg). I guess that might cause a glitch, or confusion at the very least.

Concerning the other one (File:Ddoe 02 2024d.jpg), are you sure about the permission? Did the license really come from the photographer? The user kept insisting that she bought the copyright, which is not possible by German law (the Urheberrecht is non-transferable). Only the photo studio would be in a position to issue the appropriate license. --2003:C0:8F26:B900:9DD2:C6D4:9052:5C73 23:19, 12 May 2024 (UTC)

P.S. FYI, she has since declared to appoint a lawyer. That sure sounds like a legal threat to me. --2003:C0:8F26:B900:9DD2:C6D4:9052:5C73 23:19, 12 May 2024 (UTC)

File:Professor Kazimierz Tomala.jpg

Hi, you tagged this and other files uploaded by Glysiak for missing permission. Glysiak removed your tags stating "I made those pictures" on their talk and "this is from public domain" in their edit summary. However, I checked one (File:Professor Kazimierz Tomala.jpg), which indicates a different author and also that page has a copyright statement at the bottom. Perhaps you can have another look at those files. Thanks. Randykitty (talk) 16:59, 12 May 2024 (UTC)

It'll be good idea to ask help of Polish-speaking administrator. There is about open access week page, but it's hard to tell exactly which pages are affected. Other clearly problematic file is File:Radajewska Bożena prof dr hab.jpg (and same story with removing problem tag). I tagged all user's uploads that looked official portraits for me. Even if user made them, it'll be good idea to confirm authorship via Commons:VRT. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 14:21, 13 May 2024 (UTC)

Commons:Undeletion requests/Current requests#Files deleted at Commons:Deletion requests/Files in Category:Stamps by Peter Emilevich Bendel

Здравствуйте, Евгений! Ваше мнение, как участника, загрузившего немало подобных изображений марок, было бы немаловажным. Спасибо. Quick1984 (talk) 12:23, 16 May 2024 (UTC)

Согласен с тем, что проблему надо решать комплексно, а не на случайной выборке марок на основе авторства.

Конечно же, идеальным решением было бы включение марок в список произведений, на которые авторское право не распространяется, непосредственно в законодательстве. Например, это сделано в РБ.

А есть ли доступ к документам почтового ведомства на тему, как юридически оформляются отношения между автором произведения и почтой? Возможно, в подобных договорах включён отказ от авторских прав? Если нет, то должны быть указаны отчисления. Не думаю, что архивы почты секретнее архивов Министерств обороны и внутренних дел :-)

Hello EugeneZelenko,

I just came across the deletion process which took place in 2022 of these files File:Medalla al Merito Educativo Vicente Rocafuerte.jpg and File:2008 Eduniversal Award UPACIFICO.jpg which if I'm not mistaken were photos taken by my person when visiting the institution. — Preceding unsigned comment added by HarveyPrototype (talk • contribs) 22:58, 21 May 2024 (UTC)

Please read Commons:Derivative works to understand problem with these files. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 01:05, 22 May 2024 (UTC)

Thank you for the reference. Quick question if the awards are permanently displayed in a public space. Wouldn't that fall under FOP? HarveyPrototype (talk) 19:39, 26 May 2024 (UTC)

This depends on how permanent display is. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 14:41, 27 May 2024 (UTC)

Hello @EugeneZelenko

I've placed a discussion question inCOM:VPC under the title "Two Questions Regarding Freedom of Panorama"

With regards to how permanent the display is. The awards are mounted on a wall as a permanet display. HarveyPrototype (talk) 04:02, 28 May 2024 (UTC)

I would not say such statements too categorically because such display could be easily dismounted. It'll make much more sense to find out information about award and related document. Are both issued by state? If so they may be not covered by copyrights (for example, in ex-USSR countries). --EugeneZelenko (talk) 13:55, 28 May 2024 (UTC)

Об удалении фото Амира Тебенихина

Прошу меня простить, но я совершенно не понял причин удаления данного изображения. Мне передал его Амир специально для Википедии, сообщив о том, что это фото было сделано специально для использования на афишах, буклетах и прессе. Отдельно недоумеваю, почему файл был удалён столь скоропостижно, при этом я не получил от Википедии уведомления об этом; вчера было сообщение от Wikimedia Commons. Прошли ровно сутки - и файла уже нет. Разве это нормально? КОгда-то у администрации были вопросы по некоторым из загруженных мною фото, мне были заданы вопросы, на которые я ответил, иногда связывал админов с теми, кто предоставил мне фото для свободного использования. И всегда было на это некоторое время. // Я немного загружаю файлов, и уже не помню, как именно я оформлял лицензию на этот. Если в этом ещё есть смысл, помогите, пожалуйста, разобраться. Александр Васильев (talk) 15:34, 23 May 2024 (UTC)

Как минимум претензия на Ваше авторство некорректна и это нарушение авторских прав. Подобные случаи обрабатываются быстро.

Для восстановления файла Вам надо прежде всего надо выяснить, кому принадлежат авторские права: Амиру или фотографу. После у обладателя авторских прав надо попросить послать разрешение в Commons:VRT (пример: Commons:Email templates). Потом Вы можете обратиться за помощью с проверкой разрешения и восстановлением файла на Commons:VRT/Noticeboard.

Why did you delete File:Flag of RSHECC.png with no notice in my discussion page and no reason? the file had proper tags and flags have no copyrights. Banderas (talk) 10:28, 29 June 2024 (UTC)

Reason is same as for File:Liga Nacional de Saltos logo.png and many other non-trivial sport club logos. Please read Commons:Licensing carefully. Do you really need more messages on your talk page or message for representative file would be enough? --EugeneZelenko (talk) 13:51, 29 June 2024 (UTC)

You are deleting a huge number of flags and burgees that are not logos (flags are not logos) and have not copyrights. Maybe with the Liga Nacional de Saltos logo.png file you are right, because that's a logo, but with all the college sailiing burgees and sport flags, you are wrong. You could delete all national, regional and military flags or coats of arms for the same reason, but you'd be making the same mistake. You should reconsider the flag/burgee deletions. Banderas (talk) 08:13, 30 June 2024 (UTC)

Deleted flags were based on non-trivial college logos. Please also read Commons:Derivative works. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 14:13, 30 June 2024 (UTC)

I see you are one of those who is always right. Thanks for your great contributions. Banderas (talk) 21:43, 30 June 2024 (UTC)

You deleted File:IPL Logo (2024).png stating as its 'non-trivial'. But its the logo of one of the major cricketing events in India. --Gpkp (talk) 15:57, 1 July 2024 (UTC)

Please read Commons:Licensing carefully - it doesn't matter how notable something is unless Commons copyrights requirements are satisfied. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 14:35, 2 July 2024 (UTC)

EugeneZelenko, that is what I wanted to ask you, there is no mention of 'non-trivial' in Commons:Licensing. Could you give some details on why the logos where non-notable. Or they have to be used in Wiki articles? --Gpkp (talk) 14:47, 2 July 2024 (UTC)

Non-trivial is about design and copyright-ability, not notability. Trivial logos are {{PD-text}} or {{PD-shape}}. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 14:56, 2 July 2024 (UTC)

EugeneZelenko, Are there any compatible licenses for the deleted logos?

• 3 [7] (Logo of an international govering body located in Dubai)
• 4 [8] (Indian logo)

This particular one - yes. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 14:23, 3 July 2024 (UTC)

This logo: Board..(2024).svg is more complex than the one which is deleted: ICC logo.svg [10]. Both had same licenses. Can you please tell me whats the reason? --Gpkp (talk) 15:19, 3 July 2024 (UTC)

Central part consists of text, circles, star and heart. Exterior is repetition of same shape. But you still think that it's complex enough to be copyrighted - you could nominate this image for deletion. EugeneZelenko (talk) 14:45, 4 July 2024 (UTC)

No, but my intention was to recover ICC logo.svg (ref), if possible. EugeneZelenko, I have a last query: It seems to me that, license:{{PD-shape}} suits ICC logo.svg (ref). Is it ok to upload with that license? --Gpkp (talk) 16:32, 4 July 2024 (UTC)

I don't think that this logo is trivial - shapes are not regular as well as their colors. EugeneZelenko (talk) 14:53, 5 July 2024 (UTC)

ok thank you EugeneZelenko. --Gpkp (talk) 15:26, 5 July 2024 (UTC)

Hello @EugeneZelenko,

You wrote a permission request under an image that I uploaded. I had uploder this image because I saw another logo that did not pose a problem. I’m sorry if what I did does not match the line of Commons. Jeanne Angerie (talk) 15:54, 7 September 2024 (UTC)

Another logo is trivial (i.e. {{PD-textlogo}}. Your upload is not. EugeneZelenko (talk) 14:16, 8 September 2024 (UTC)

Caerlaverock Castle plan

This file is most certainly 'Public Domain'. The basic plan was extracted from McGibbon & Ross's 'Castellated architecture' book, published in the late C19, hence decades out of copyright. Illustrations from this work are used all over Wikimedia/Wikipedia. I added the annotations, but gave the final image what I thought was a full free licence. If you think the licence is wrong, perhaps you would be good enough to change it, as I find the 'Commons' licensing system confusing and illogical. Thanks . ArchaicW (talk) 11:37, 8 September 2024 (UTC)

You should use proper public domain tags for such media. Creative Commons licenses are artifact of 21st century. EugeneZelenko (talk) 14:15, 8 September 2024 (UTC)

File:Shire Library (cover) 'The English Pleasure Garden 1660 - 1860'.jpg, is a derivative work, containing an "image within an image".

The 'image within the image' is of Ranelagh Gardens, London, from an Eighteenth Century coloured print. Hence is is two Centuries out of copyright, hence does not I think need an extra attribution? Thanks ArchaicW (talk) 11:52, 8 September 2024 (UTC)

Obviously, book cover is not your own work. However, main part of it is public domain drawing (other are plain texts), so relevant tag should be used. EugeneZelenko (talk) 14:13, 8 September 2024 (UTC)

File:KBFC Logo Yellow Keyline.svg

My scope of knowledge is limited in terms of Commons, but can you walk me though on why the file was deleted, and how can I bring the logo bacl with proper licensing? Regards. Ken Tony (talk) 16:04, 1 October 2024 (UTC)

This is non-trivial logo and could not be hosted on Commons. See Commons:Licensing. However you could upload such logos locally to projects that allow non-free media, for example, English Wikipedia. EugeneZelenko (talk) 17:12, 1 October 2024 (UTC)

Round 1 of Picture of the Year 2023 voting is open!

2022 Picture of the Year: Great Cormorant (Phalacrocorax carbo), Little Egret (Egretta garzetta) and Gadwall (Mareca strepera) in Nepal.

Dear Wikimedian,

Wikimedia Commons is happy to announce that the 2023 Picture of the Year competition is now open. This year will be the eighteenth edition of the annual Wikimedia Commons photo competition, which recognizes exceptional contributions by users on Wikimedia Commons. Wikimedia users are invited to vote for their favorite images featured on Commons during the last year (2023) to produce a single Picture of the Year.

Hundreds of images that have been rated Featured Pictures by the international Wikimedia Commons community in the past year are all entered in this competition. These images include professional animal and plant shots, breathtaking panoramas and skylines, restorations of historical images, photographs portraying the world's best architecture, impressive human portraits, and so much more.

For your convenience, we have sorted the images into topical categories. Two rounds of voting will be held: In the first round, you may vote for as many images as you like. The top 30 overall and top 5% of most popular images in each category will continue to the final. In the final round, you may vote for just three images to become the Picture of the Year.

Round 1 will end on 14 October 2024, 23:59:59 UTC.

Thanks,
the Wikimedia Commons Picture of the Year committee

About the copyright

Hi, you have noticed me this message about the copyvio. I've got one question. Some photos that users uploaded are photos contained metadata, which resulted in free image, so I cropped some. However, due to the deletion of these photos which resulted as a copyvio, how can I avoid these so that I don't get unfairly accused? Mickey Đại Phát (talk) 14:51, 14 October 2024 (UTC)

Will be good ides to try to reverse search images before cropping and/or verify license in provided source, so you could help to fix problem in its roots. EugeneZelenko (talk) 14:56, 14 October 2024 (UTC)

How to reverse these? Mickey Đại Phát (talk) 14:59, 14 October 2024 (UTC)

You need to enable Google Images & Tineye gadget in Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-gadgets. Relevant links will appear on file page. EugeneZelenko (talk) 15:01, 14 October 2024 (UTC)

OK friend. Thanks for your advice, if not from you I can be unfairly accused. Mickey Đại Phát (talk) 15:06, 14 October 2024 (UTC)

File:Bigil Toks.png

Hi EugeneZelenko. Can you check to see whether File:Bigil Toks.png is just a reupload of File:Bigiltoks Main Logo 600x144px.png? Both files were uploaded by the same user, and you deleted the latter file per F1 in July 2021. -- Marchjuly (talk) 19:36, 28 October 2024 (UTC)

No, it a little bit different. Deleted file has text in cycle at the left, when new file has smile there. Logo itself seems on border of trivial/non-trivial for me, so will be good idea to m=nominate it for deletion. EugeneZelenko (talk) 14:30, 29 October 2024 (UTC)

Thank you for checking on this. -- Marchjuly (talk) 07:48, 30 October 2024 (UTC)

Request

Hello EugeneZelenko, I believe you added a "File tagging" in my User talk in 10/28/2024 missing the source of the image file File:Jontex embalagens.jpg. I was warned in the email. I haven't edited on Wikipedia for many years. I don't remember, maybe I searched on Google images and added these image here to help the wikipedia community. I did not know about copyright in the past because I was very young. To avoid future copyright problems, please also remove all other images that I uploaded in the past (maybe also found on Google Images): Upload log Thank you very much. I wish you a great week. Wiki99467 (talk) 20:27, 30 October 2024 (UTC)

Your other uploads seem to be trivial logos, so you should just use {{PD-textlogo}} there. If companies are not notable, you could nominate logos for deletion. EugeneZelenko (talk) 14:59, 31 October 2024 (UTC)

About photo "Ryoff Karma.jpg"

Dear Eugene Zelenko, Спасибо за ваше редактирование. Я не понимал правил Викимедиа. На удаленные фотографии нет проблем с авторскими правами. Мой друг сделал фотографию. Я получил от него авторские права. Итак, я снова загрузил его как «фото, авторские права на которое принадлежат мне». Еще раз спасибо.SeijiFujii (talk) 18:13, 9 November 2024 (UTC) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ryofu_Karma

А есть юридический документ, подтверждающий передачу авторских прав Вам? EugeneZelenko (talk) 16:05, 10 November 2024 (UTC)

on DejanDima's talk page. The photographs in question were posted as part of the Wikipedian in residence project in cooperation with the "Bora Stanković" Public Library. The author of all these photos is the Wikipedian in residence, who was engaged in the project, therefore we did not provide written CC permission for the posted photos. Given that the photos have been deleted, could you please restore them, and we will provide written permission for them asap from the author, Dejan Dimić, who was also involved in the project.

Best regards, Gorana Gomirac (VMRS) (talk) 11:42, 5 December 2024 (UTC)

I think will be good idea if Wikipedians in residence will read Commons:Derivative works before uploading their photos. EugeneZelenko (talk) 15:53, 5 December 2024 (UTC)

Deletion of files licensed as CC BY 4.0

Hello! I was wondering what was the reason for deletion of 2 files depicting Summer McIntosh. Yes, these are AP photos, but when you follow the link to the source, it shows that they are published under the license CC BY 4.0 which is explicitly allowed at Commons. So I must have missed something else there, and obviously would like to know what exactly, so I don't make the same mistake in the future. Deinocheirus (talk) 18:43, 15 December 2024 (UTC)

https://www.freemalaysiatoday.com/category/sports/2023/07/30/us-finish-with-flourish-as-canadas-mcintosh-wins-second-gold/ and https://www.freemalaysiatoday.com/category/sports/2024/08/02/summer-storm-hits-paris-as-mcintosh-claims-second-gold/ did not say anything about CC-BY-4.0. EugeneZelenko (talk) 16:39, 16 December 2024 (UTC)

The images were found via Google image search, limited to Creative Commons licenses only. Here is what the search result looks like for the 2024 Olympics photo: https://www.google.ca/search?q=summer+mcintosh&sca_esv=e6f3bf325e5684b2&udm=2&sxsrf=ADLYWILj08D56Yo_vr5RQ3m2_3OdKqgW5g:1734367922641&source=lnt&tbs=sur:cl&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwipgsH_36yKAxWmFTQIHU5lBB0QpwV6BAgCECA&biw=1505&bih=832&dpr=1.1#vhid=-Lbq39cS99ozoM&vssid=mosaic

If I then click "License details" under the photo, I get here: https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/

So does it mean that Google is not to be trusted on this matter? It seems like I was able to identify the actual author of the photo: here they are named as Matthias Schrader. Do you think it would be useful to try and contact them directly and ask if they are aware that their work appears as CC-licensed on Google? Deinocheirus (talk) 17:11, 16 December 2024 (UTC)

It's hard to tell how Google make such claims. Software could be implemented incorrectly and every professional and amateur programmer knows this :-) I also check both files and both do not contain EXIF where Creative Commons license claim could be theoretically made.

I think will be better if these deletion requests will be handled by person who knows Japanese language as well as history of Japan, so public domain/copyrighted status will be determined more reliably. EugeneZelenko (talk) 16:10, 19 December 2024 (UTC)
