The template, which was created today, asserts that paintings where the painter died more than 50 years ago are public domain. I don't know of any reason to think this is true. I think the three pictures that use this template will have to be deleted, too. User:dbenbenn 23:31, 2 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- I created the template, which is a copy of the one on Wikipedia, for images that are PD in countries where copyright law is fifty years instead of 70 (such as Australia). But if the official policy is that anything younger than seventy years can't be hosted on Commons i'll understand that. Husky 20:43, 3 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Well, anything that's public domain can be hosted here. For example, Template:PD-AR-Photo is for Argentine photos that are more than 25 years old. If works first published in Australia become PD after 50 years, we should have a template for those. But as far as I know, 50 year old works aren't PD in the US. User:dbenbenn 01:13, 4 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Well, actually there are things in the PD in the US which are fifty years old, but that's very complicated. I think Night of the Living Dead might be an example because the authours forgot to put a copyright notice on the film. Husky 17:32, 4 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry for listing so many images at once, but I replaced these all at once with SVGs since they're obviously related. I've orphaned them all too. Their replacements are named (letter name)_uc_lc.svg (which stands for uppercase, lowercase). The SVGs have some differences in whitespace, but the letters themselves are identical, as exactly the same characters of the same font was used. They are not derived from the PNGs, so I could also put my SVGs under a much more liberal license. Deco 11:08, 3 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Update: I am currently considering replacing the SVGs that replaced these images, in turn, with markup combining single-glyph SVGs. So the deletion list might grow. Deco 02:57, 4 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

This photo comes from a website, where the photographer wrote "This image is a free download and can be used royalty-free in your designs". It seems to me that doesn't equate to public domain. In particular, the author didn't say anything about allowing derivative works. User:dbenbenn 01:54, 3 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Against - And, what is "royalty-free"??? For me if it is royalty-free is Public Domain. Loco085 02:57, 3 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Royalty-free most certainly does not imply public domain, and in fact many licenses we don't accept such as noncommercial licenses are royalty free. Literally, royalty free means that you can use the picture in certain ways without paying the photographer, but does not necessarily allow free derivative works, commercial use including selling by third parties, and so on. The photographer must release it under an explicit license that we recognise, or at least make a clear legal statement. Deco 11:01, 3 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep - this entry is completely invalid IMO - please see preceding entry Template:Deletion requests#My own images made by the same user regarding the same images. ¦ Reisio 02:47, 4 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. We have to delete them - the user who uploaded them is not the copyright owner, and the copyright owner does not (according to the uploader) wish to release them under a suitable license. Although I rather disagree with this person's motives, there's no getting around the fact that we can't accept these. Deco 03:02, 4 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- That's nonsense. According to that logic anybody can start claiming "Hey - my brother took those images of the planet Pluto, so you have to delete them". If he'd wanted them deleted because it dawned on him that he didn't have the authority to license them, he probably would've said that, but he didn't...not until it became glaringly obviously to him that we don't just give up images.
- Now, if he wants to get his parents to corroborate his story and most likely make complete liars of themselves just to deprive us of these images, that's fine by me, but we should at least make them go to the trouble of verifying their participation in this likely sham. ¦ Reisio 03:23, 4 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- I agree that it's an egregious loophole, but I don't see any way short of cryptographic authentication that we can prove that any supporting statement came from the contributor's parents - and even authentication is suspect when we don't know the identity of the contributor. He could assume the identity of his own parent. The best thing I can think of is that maybe we can examine the images for evidence that he did or didn't take them. Deco 05:08, 4 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- I'm sorry that this is causing so much trouble here. I do not know how else to prove this... Well, the easiest is to see that I am not a photographer. As you can see in the Pentium photograph I took myself, it's terrible. Compare that to nice pictures linked above. That's the best I can do. If you can e-mail your phone number, which I doubt, I can ask my parents to speak to you, if that's what you wanted... By the way Reisio, stop editting the image pages. What's done was NEVER done. Oh, also, I don't own a Pentium 4 Williamette processor. I only own a Prescott. So that might help somewhat? -- WB 06:15, 4 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- I agree that it's an egregious loophole, but I don't see any way short of cryptographic authentication that we can prove that any supporting statement came from the contributor's parents - and even authentication is suspect when we don't know the identity of the contributor. He could assume the identity of his own parent. The best thing I can think of is that maybe we can examine the images for evidence that he did or didn't take them.

This video comes from TV Câmara, the television network of the Chamber of Deputies of Brazil, the lower house of the Brazilian Congress, and is copyrighted. The Chamber allows it to be used for any purpose, if the source (TV Câmara) is given.
But this image is not a work of TV Câmara, it´s a screenshoot of third party video maker. Additionaly, I would like to know where is the source that says that TV Câmara videos are allowed to be used for any purpose. --Patrick-br msg 16:58, 3 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
You can read the authorization at the TV Câmara website. You can find for example the following message: Reprodução autorizada mediante citação da TV Câmara (Reproduction is granted if you cite the source TV Camara). Several TV Stations in Brazil including commercial ones use videos from TV Camara without worrying about it. --Carlosar 14:39, 4 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Regarding the picture, I think that we can use it without any trouble. The video is not a commercial production and there is not even a declared author -although we have suspicitions about who made it !!! The video was made in a clandestine manner and since then it has been broadcasted by several TV stations including TV Camara. With whom all these TV stations requested authorization? By its nature, the video is already at public domain. Several sites, including BBC, Folha de S. Paulo, Estado de S. Paulo, Veja published pictures of this video. In my opinion we can use the pictures safely. Anyway, I can contact TV Camara and we can see what they say. --Carlosar 14:39, 4 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I uploaded this after looking at en:Duck and noticing there was description but no pics of ducks used as food, and I just happened to have snapped this pic at an xmas dinner a few days earlier (someone had asked me to take it). I linked it there but almost immediately another editor removed the link saying it's a low quality picture. I decided that was the correct decision. The picture is really not any good, just a random snapshot uploaded on an impulse, and I don't think it's being used anywhere. So I doubt anyone will miss it if it goes away.

Delete the older version, keep the newer version. Delete the author still wishes to. -- WB 02:22, 6 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]- Keep. It's a nice picture and potentially useful. WB is voting delete solely to promote his own political agenda (authors should be able to delete their own stuff). I haven't heard any follow-up statement from Phr, and even his original statement wasn't very strong. Deco 02:40, 6 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- I'm still here, I still think it's an awful picture, especially the color balance (on-camera flash). "Potentially useful" was refuted by experiment--putting it on the Duck page got it taken down almost immediately. I'm not too worked up about it one way or the other, I just don't want for Commons to be loaded up with crappy snapshots of boring things. Taking a good picture of that type requires a lot of setup, both of the stuff being photographed (right now it's almost a gross-out picture) and of lighting (I'd like to have a couple of studio flashes with softboxes for that shot, plus lots more skill). If someone wants to make a version with the blue channel toned way down, I'd be interested in seeing it. I think the version up there right now looks even worse than the first version, and thought it was intended that way. Phr 06:30, 6 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Again, I'm biased for deleting, so a warning before you read. I think it was in one of the archived discussions, but yeah. Should Commons be a endless storage place for any sort of picture just because it's freely licensed? Your picture isn't bad at all, but some images (like mine, haha) are really crappy, but it's solely kept for the reason of "potentially useful" and that it's already released. Since there are far better pictures depicting the same thing, it's not even used in Wikipedia, and if it was "potentially useful," it could be used as a demonstration of a bad picture. (see this) I realize that images are really important on Commons, but there should be some quality control as well. -- WB 06:48, 6 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Well, I must admit that I am biased in this voting. However, I support. The second version looks good though. So keep for that. -- WB 03:20, 6 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Now I'm really confused--someone has edited the shot to remove all the stuff from the background. I guess that's an improvement, but is there some reason I can't see the old versions any more? Were they deleted, or does Commons just not store them? I'm new at this. Phr 07:06, 6 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- I was archiving them because someone pointed it out, and I happened to agree. The ones you are missing are now stored at Commons:Deletion requests/Archives05. -- WB 07:49, 6 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- No that's something different. I think I now see what happened: I have to click "file history" to see old versions of the pic. I was confused by clicking "history" which only showed old versions of the description text. I think that's a Wikimedia bug and I should probably bring that up elsewhere. Anyway, Fb78's version is much better than the original one. I at first thought it was worse because I didn't realize that the background was gone, so I thought the pic had just been squashed down and it looked weird. Of course it's impossible for the end result to be really good because the original pic was poor to start with. Fb78 has now done much more work on this picture than I did, so if s/he wants to keep it up, I'm willing to withdraw the deletion request. Phr 08:06, 6 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Well, you could still ask them to delete the older revisions. -- WB 08:45, 6 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- I don't really care about that. On Wikipedia, if I write something and then decide I don't like it, I can revert it, but it's fine and good that it's still visible in the history if someone wants to dig for it. Or I can edit it until I like it. With images, it's a bit different, because it's almost impossible to edit a bad photo into a good one. But Fb78 improved this shot a lot. As mentioned, I'm new at uploading images, so this is probably a typical newbie experience (it looks like you've done the same thing). The lesson for both of us is to just be a bit more discriminating when choosing what to upload. Phr 09:12, 6 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Yeah, I just need to learn how to take pictures well. Haha. Well, Wikipedia is articles and owner/authorship on those are much different than images, where you take a picture, and for most of them, they "are the owners." Text can be easily editted and in few edits, it might not even resemble what it was a few minutes ago. Images, however, stay here indefinately. Unlike articles which are not associated with people, images are. In my opinion, the problem with image page is that the revision/history is visible in the page itself. I would have liked it if images were like articles, that have separate history that doesn't get Googled or mirrored. Anyway, deletion request withdrawn completely? -- WB 09:20, 6 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- Phr: I understand if you think it's a bad picture, but I really don't think it's that bad, especially the edited version. The fact that one editor of one article rejected it is immaterial; there are articles about ducks on every Wikipedia, and one of them might want to use it. What if we write an article about poultry cooking in the future? Your subject is unique and we have no suitable replacement picture. Must keep. Deco 09:22, 6 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Template:TVCamaraBr and all files under Category:Videos by TV Camara from Brazil
editThis video comes from TV Câmara, the television network of the Chamber of Deputies of Brazil, the lower house of the Brazilian Congress, and is copyrighted. The Chamber allows it to be used for any purpose, if the source (TV Câmara) is given.
There is no source on camara.gov.br saying that the Chamber allows it to be used for any purpose, only "Reprodução autorizada mediante citação" (Reproduction is granted if you cite the source TV Camara). It doesn´t allow derivative work. --Patrick-br msg 12:18, 5 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Por favor, cite os vídeos que considera trabalhos derivados. Se o vídeo é uma cópia exata do material produzido pela TV Câmara (isto é, o conteúdo não foi alterado) ele não é um material derivado. Estou correto?
A TV Câmara, assim como outros órgãos do Governo brasileiro permite que terceiros divulguem o material que produzem, bastante para isso, não esquecer de atribuir os respectivos créditos. No website da TV Câmara há avisos bastante claros dizendo que a divulgação do material produzido pela TV Câmara é livre. Aviso semelhante é encontrado em outros websites do Governo, como o da Agência Brasil, da TV Senado e da Rádio Senado. Na Rádio Senado há inclusive um pequeno tutorial que dá dicas às rádios que quiserem usar o conteúdo do site.
Em relação à TV Câmara, deve ser lembrado também que o material produzido por ela é reproduzido freqüentemente por outros canais de televisão do Brasil. Esses canais contam com equipes próprias para produzir o próprio material, mas algumas vezes por comodidade ou por outra conveniência acabam usando o material da TV Câmara, o que não é proibido.
Quero ainda novamente lembrar, que em todos os links para vídeo da TV Câmara no seu website, inclusive para aqueles com transmissão ao vivo em tempo real, não há nenhuma advertência de direitos autorais ou coisa parecida, muito pelo contrário. Em todos os links para os vídeos da TV Câmara você encontra logo abaixo do vídeo a seguinte inscrição: Reprodução autorizada mediante citação da TV Câmara.
Por conseguinte, considero perfeitamente legal e correto usar o material da TV Câmara. --Carlosar 15:26, 5 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Eu posso até concordar com você no que diz respeito a veiculação de vídeos de terceiros. Contudo todos os vídeos da Categoria TV Câmara são reproduções dos materiais produzidos pela equipe da TV Câmara. Eu concordaria se houvesse na categoria por exemplo algum vídeo de algum documentário produzido pela TV Globo, por exemplo, ou algum trecho de filme (ainda que a exibição de um trecho não seja ilegal). --Carlosar 15:29, 5 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Em relação à discussão sobre a validade de alguns vídeos da Categoria TV Câmara, acho que é possível questionar alguns que não estão bem explicados. Contudo eu considero um exagero questionar todos os vídeos da categoria. Alguns vídeos são cópias exatas, downloads do site da TV Câmara (e em todos os vídeos do site há a mensagem que eles podem ser usados, desde que seja citada a fonte). Além disso, deve-se ressaltar que a TV Câmara é uma TV gratuita, conforme especificado na lei que a criou.
- Delete, IMHO. In few words, Carlosar says that he is not uploading derivative work (Por favor, cite os vídeos que considera trabalhos derivados, "Please, tell me what are the videos that you think are derivative work") and that brazilian commercial tv channels are using this videos, so commons can use then too. In our talk pages I´m trying to explain that brazilian government work is not public domain by default. I´m also telling him that in commons derivative work authorization is a must, and there is a difference between Agência Brasil and TV Câmara. Agência Brasil says "O uso das fotos produzidas pela Agência Brasil é livre" (You are free to use it), so there is no restriction to derivative work. In TV Câmara, we are allowed to copy (Reprodução autorizada mediante citação, "Reproduction is granted if you cite the source TV Camara"), which is not the same. --Patrick-br msg 16:47, 5 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I hate Flickr. Image:Bologna - duomo.jpg was uploaded in October from Flickr, and marked as cc-by-sa-2.0. Today, I looked at the original at Flickr, and it's marked cc-by-nc-nd-2.0. Unfortunately, there's no way to tell whether the license at Flickr has changed (meaning we can keep it), or whether the uploader just made a mistake (meaning we can't keep it). User:dbenbenn 20:50, 8 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. That's what we are left with, and we can't do much about it. Have you tried contacting the photographer? -- WB 21:50, 8 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Nope. I prefer not to. Feel free to, if you wish. User:dbenbenn 02:42, 9 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- I probably won't. It's so much easier to change and remove licenses in flickr though. If I had posted my parents pic at flickr, I wouldn't have had to go through all that trouble to get them erased... Anyway, too bad, we can't do anything about it without contacting him. Is the pic really important? -- WB 04:11, 9 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- The problem here is that legally, you can't revoke a license - Flickr should show a history of licenses that was at some point applied to the image, along with a short statement about why it was changed. -- Duesentrieb(?!) 11:44, 9 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- True. I gotta say most people cannot careless about the licensing though. Well, you can when you are going further. For example, you can change from by-nc-sa to by-sa then we wouldn't care if the licensing changed. It's just that nc is important to us. Short statement would be nice though. -- WB 12:04, 9 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Delete from Wikipedia Commons. This image has no source to it, and it is not an accurate image: it was not painted during his lifetime. Marcus2 15:07, 8 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. Image looks old enough (may be from old textbook/religious book). You argument about accuracy is not very good: how many medeval persons were painted at lifetime? From your point of view every icon image should be deleted from Commons, because saints were painted long after death.

Some people argue the characters are "copyrighted", but one does not copyright a character — one copyrights a work of art. The legal question boils down to whether drawing fan art implies making a derived work (and possibly whether this derived works infringes on trademarks or other protection).

I've uploaded a higher-quality version at Image:Albert Einstein Swss Patent Office clerk 1905.jpg.
Albert-einstein7.jpg isn't a very good name, but the file is used in articles on four wikipedias. [11] I see three options in this case.
- Delete Albert-einstein7.jpg and edit the wikipedias to link to the new image.
- Delete Albert-einstein7.jpg and create some sort of redirect to the new image on the commons (I'm not sure if this is possible with mediawiki- probably not).
- Replace Albert-einstein7.jpg with the high-quality version. This is the path of least resistance, but we are left with a poor filename.
-Fadookie 01:19, 11 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- I'd probably do something like upload it to Image:Albert Einstein Swiss Patent Office clerk 1905.jpeg, replace all the Image:Albert-einstein7.jpg's with it, then replace that one with a nice X image from Category:Redundant and Bob's your uncle. I'm not sure what the point is in converting GIF to JPEG, but the filesize is smaller and there apparently isn't any quality loss, so whatever. ¦ Reisio 04:42, 11 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Collection of images
editThe following images are all orphaned, not used to illustrate any articles, and are simply uploaded pictures of various Wikipedians who photograph their genitals, presumably for the sake of voyeurism. I have no problem with nudity, but these are the *pointless* nudity that don't illustrate any articles, and aren't even "good" images by any standard. Wikimedia is not an imagehosting service, and certainly not an adult one. Image:Vulva3.jpg Image:Vulva2.jpg Image:Sexe male penis.jpg Image:Right.jpg Image:Penis .jpg Image:Human penis flaccid.jpg Image:Human penis erect.jpg Image:Gen 21.jpg Image:Flaccid and erect human penis B&W.jpg Image:Erectpeniswhilemasturbating.jpg
- (nominated by Sherurcij, from WP)
- Keep They are all categorizes and/or used in articles. If you don't like them then do not look at them! --Denniss 08:53, 11 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- I have no problem with them, I assure you I've seen a great many genitals, I'm hardly a prude. And no, none of them are used in a single article.
- Keep. Why delete them? Somebody might use them in the future. Kjetil r 08:57, 11 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- People who want an image of a penis, probably don't want a picture of a random internet user masturbating, they'll find a somewhat more scholarly or clear photo. The photography is horrid on these, and it isn't useful to demonstrate anything
- I think the masturbation picture shows perfectly normal masturbation, a "random internet user" probably masturbates the same way as other people. The image can perfectly well be used in an article about (male) masturbation. I am more doubtful of Image:Male Erect Penis with Pre Ejaculate.jpg though. Kjetil r 21:25, 12 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete - yes they are free, but they are only used for vandalism purposes. / Fred Chess 10:21, 13 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete We've had this discussion before. We definitely need pictures that illustrate topics like masturbation, erections etc., but these images just don't fulfill that purpose. Let's face it: These pictures are never going to be used in any wikimedia project. Wikimedia Commons is not and must not become a repository for amateur porn. I even tend to think that uploading a picture of your own erect penis should count as a form of vandalism, not as a useful contribution. --Fb78 11:19, 13 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep They can be used any time in the same way as any other orphaned images (by the way, given the huge quantity of Wikimedia wikis, how can anyone be sure that an image is not being already used? Is there a way to find out?). Maybe I will change my mind when Commons has 20,000 images similar to these ones but, until then, I vote for keeping them --Piolinfax 21:50, 14 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- If a wiki community believes such an image is essential to illustrate an article, I'd be worried.
- To check if an image is being used, use the Check-Usage tool / Fred Chess 16:25, 16 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- I should add that vandalism with Commons images will be an increasing problem, especially on unnoticed pages and/or Wikipedias. See for an example: [13] / Fred Chess 16:31, 16 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Kandinsky died in 1944. I think that he did this work when he was in Germany, in 1913. This would mean that German copyright law applies and this painting is copyrighted. David.Monniaux 22:56, 11 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- This would not apply if the country of first publication/creation of the work of art had a shorter copyright term. Under the Berne convention, you cannot claim copyright on works longer than the copyright of the country of origin. Some countries have protection only for 50 years.
- Thus, I'm asking where Kandinsky did his painting. I suspect it's Germany, which would make this image a copyvio. David.Monniaux 12:07, 13 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- Yes. Copyright applies to original artwork/design, not to "sweat of brow" work. If you reproduce copyrighted work, the original creators has rights to it - it does not matter if you reproduce it using a scanner or crayon. Think about books, that will make it clear, i think: If you take a book and simply re-type it, it's still not your work, you can not publish it without the original authors consent.

(reset indent) Oh yes, it's exactly the same. We even rely on that fact with our policy to assume reproductions of PD works to be PD too. Relevant court decisions (for the US) are en:Bridgeman Art Library v. Corel Corp. and en:Feist Publications v. Rural Telephone Service - that makes it very clear that the basis of copyright is creative originality, not sweat of the brow.

License [19]: You are only permitted to reproduce the image in a media publication. You must not distribute or use any image for any other purpose.. Thuresson 12:07, 13 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- The licence is quite fuzzy and give some latitude. You must not distribute or use any image for any other purpose. : for what could be used a picture ? There is no restriction on commercial use or any kind of reuse. I personnaly contacted g8pix.com, these pictures are free (libre) for media. Wikipedia is a media. So, imho, we should keep it. --Neuceu 18:30, 13 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- For instance, they perhaps cannot be used on a retail product or an advertisement. This is technically unfree, though I wonder why we should fund a site restricted to images suitable for advertisements and retail products... David.Monniaux 23:18, 13 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Whatever a "media publication" is, I doubt that would include printing the photo on T-shirts or cups. Thuresson 23:33, 13 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- These pictures are in fact part of the "pool". As the G8 summits and these kinds of events can only accept a limited number of journalists, the organization accredit one of them, then the pictures are free for use by the media. I understand that the license is unclear - that's also why I uploaded only one picture -, I wanted to have this discussion. In my interpretation, the pictures are free for reuse, for parody or for printing on a t-shirt. But that's only my interpretation. I let an admin decide what is to be done with this picture. --Neuceu 16:23, 17 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Isn't the plaque a copyrighted design with a copyrighted photo? Dunno about British law. David.Monniaux 21:22, 14 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- The design of the plaque itself will be extremely unlikely to be enforcibly copyrighted under British law - for something in the open designed to be viewed (and photographed) by the public the copyright would have to be asserted AIUI. The only question is the photo, given whne Agatha Christie lived (15 September 1890 – 12 January 1976) it is possible that the photo will be PD-old. Given the use of the photograph then if any thought has gone into it, I suspect the photo would be chosen as a public domain. If you know who erected the plaque, then I'd contact them to be absolutely certain (although if it is a society then they may not even know). In summary, I believe that this file is a photograph of an object that is almost certainly public domain, and thus fine for the commons. IANAL. Thryduulf 03:17, 15 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Me again with a whole bunch of images. All the flags in this article except four are redundant (replaced by SVGs). I have orphaned them in the three major Wikipedias where they were used, which I think is everywhere. To be specific, I wish to delete the following 36 images as redundant:

DragonFire1024 02:20, 15 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]- If it is tagged as fair use (read the article) on en then the only license you can apply to it is fair use.

The copyright extension act is retroactive, as long as the film had a copyright notice on it, and I'm entirely confident it did. Deco 02:11, 19 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
To the uploader: when you take files from the wikis and upload them to the commons, do not put a blind trust in the license you see. If you think it is bizarre (see Commons:Copyright violations), exercise caution. David.Monniaux 09:04, 15 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Logos of Danish political youth organisations uploaded by User:Qupp
editThree of these images have been posted already (in two posts), but since all of this user's images are of the same nature, I'm listing them all them here.
These images are all copyrighted logos of the youth wings of a number of Danish politicial parties. Definitely not free. Besides, two of the logos are plain wrong. The one listed for Radikal Ungdom is in fact a combination of the logos of the Conservative Youth and the RU. The logo for Socialistisk Ungdomsfront (SUF) is just plain wrong, the correct logo is an image of a fist. If these images had been uploaded as fair use images in Wikipedia, I'd have no problem, but they are not free images and should definitely not be on Commons.
I'm a member of Venstres Ungdom (VU) and I hereby attest that the VU logo is copyrighted and its use on Commons is a copyright violation. If you need more information please contact en:User:Valentinian, since I only rarely access this account. --Valentinian 00:33, 15 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

[20] says it's made 1930, so I have doubt it's PD; No proof that the author is dead for 70 years; BTW "Ullstein Verlag" already forced us to delete a picture on de-Wikipedia which had a wrong license --Crux 12:49, 14 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- If it's an anonymous work (no photographer's name is shown), then its copyrighted expired in 2000 if made in Germany. If made in the US, it might be in the public domain due to non renewal of copyright. Thus, we should try to get the location where it was made. David.Monniaux 22:20, 14 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Quote of [21]: "Max Planck und Albert Einstein trafen sich am 17. Juni 1930 in Berlin im Rahmen der "World Power Conference";" so it's made in Berlin. And just because Thomas7 didn't know the author, it doesn't mean that he's anonymous. Sorry, but under these circumstances it must be deleted. --Crux 14:23, 15 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- M. Monniaux should not argue with German law if he is not able to understand German. Crux is right. The fact that a specific copy/reproduction doesn't mention the creator makes it not an anonymous work. You have to take in account that for pictures created before 1995 July 1 the old copyright law is still relevant. --Historiograf 14:31, 24 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- Many of them are probable copyright violations. One reason is that, often, official photos are not done by government services, but by well-known, private photographers.

Cottbus, if the copyright owner explicitly licensed these maps under the GFDL, we need their original statement in writing saying that.

In the conditions of sale, in relation to the tickets for the Parc Astérix, it is written: "Le Client n’acquiert aucun droit de propriété ou d’usage et ne pourra utiliser les dénominations, signes, emblèmes, logos, personnages ressortant de l’univers de la bande dessinée d’Astérix le Gaulois, marques, droit d’auteur et autres signes ou autres droits de propriété littéraire, artistique ou industrielle..."
Photos taken in Parc Astérix are not free. They cannot be given commercial use, for instance. I believe this picture is not legal.--Lampiao3 22:33, 17 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Request an image deletion, to get an broader audiance for this topic. I don't think many people watch this page. There are two more of these Pictures in Category:Asterix. In case you speak french (I don't) you could ask the park for permission for the three pictures. --80.137.29.241 17:06, 18 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete, delete also everything in Category:Asterix. These pictures reproduce copyrighted material and were taken on private grounds. Copyright law is not on our side here. The proper person to ask is not only Parc Astérix (who holds the copyright to the statues), but also Alberto Uderzo/René Goscinny, since they hold the copyright to the figures themselves. Given how they reacted in other cases (lawsuits), the chance of a permission to put it under a free license equals zero. --Fb78 13:46, 19 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- I added the other two pictures. I vote for delete as I don't want to have any problems with someone regarding a few simple pictures. --Boris23 17:05, 20 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- I pose questionmarks at the validity of the EULA of tickets for Asterixland. If you make pictures yourself, and you have permission of the people in the pic, you can do whatever the hell yhou want with it, even sell it, publish it, or give it away for free. This seems the same as not being able to publish a pic because the Atomium happens to be in the background: total BS. Zanaq 11:06, 21 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- That is simply not true. You can't "do whatever the hell yhou want with it". If you take a picture of a copyrighted item, and you publish it, you infringe the rights of the item's creator. It's as simple as that, no matter what the EULA says. --Fb78 17:44, 21 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

STOP. We need to get advice from Soufron or Villy on this. My understanding:
- in general, owners of property have no right to restrict distribution of photos from this property, unless perhaps it causes them a special harm;
- on the other hand, they may hold rights as designers of some architectural or sculptural works. David.Monniaux 13:34, 22 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- You look at it the wrong way.
- 1. The creators of Asterix hold a copyright to Asterix as a drawing.
- 2. The creators of the sculptures have created a work which may be a derivative work (copyrighted) or not. In both cases, they needed permission from the creators of Asterix. [23]
- 3. The person who took the picture may or may not have created a derivative work - in any case, he has taken a picture of copyrighted items, which requires permission from the creators. (There is one exception to this rule in some countrys: If the statues are permanently installed in a public place - not on private grounds! - the pictures may be distributed without permission. NB: This exception doesn't exist in France, see previous discussions on French contemporary architecture.) --Fb78 18:06, 23 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- Rename to "Image:1996 Proposed Flag of Taiwan.svg": The term "flag of Taiwan" refers most commonly to the Flag of the Republic of China and not the Proposed flag of Taiwan initiated in 1996 "New Name, New Flag, New Anthem" campaign. "Flag of Taiwan" is an inappropriate title for this image becuase 1) it will be confused with Image:Flag of the Republic of China.svg, which is the overwhelmingly common reference for "flag of Taiwan" and 2) there is no consensus in the Taiwan independence movement on a new flag for Taiwan so to call this flag the flag of Taiwan would be POV against other proposed designs. --Jiang 09:57, 21 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

This pictures are breaking laws in Austria and Germany because of the bill called "Gegen die guten Sitten" which means, that no pictures of errected penises or pictures, which show sexual practices in public. also the "Jugendschutzgesetz" (law for the protection of the youth) illustrates, that those pictures have to be protected, so that underage persons are not able to view them.
The most of this pictures are not demonstrating anything usefull, the remaining could be replaced with drawings and censored pictures.
Best regards Dr. Recher
- Keep. I don't give a damn about laws in Austria and Germany; these photos are hosted in the United States. Fred Chess commented that the model in some of these photos might be underage. I think that doesn't matter for pictures where the model can't be identified. (If any of the photos have questionable sources, that's a different issue. I admit I haven't looked through all of them.)

- Well, of course we can't host child pornograpy, because it's illegal in the United States. But according to w:Child pornography#United States, "Under federal law, child pornography is defined as visual depiction of minors (i.e. under 18) engaged in a sex act ... as well as the lascivious depictions of the genitals. ... A court case in 1999 determined that mere nudity involving minors does not come under the federal definition of child porn." I don't think any of the images under discussion here are child pornography according to that definition. User:dbenbenn 01:02, 23 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia also have to care about the laws in Austria and Germany, because the german version of Wikipedia also link to this pages.

- Keep : these images are clearly not of a pornographic nature, but suitable for educational purpose. Pornographic images are quite different, as anyone who cares to visit a pornographic site can witness.

A picture of an errected penis is no normal photo, its more likely to show sexual practice. I think only persons, who are a little bit confused in sexual thinkings defend this pictures! 80.121.2.166 14:01, 23 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Actually I deleted this picture once before. but the uploader claims this is not a cipyvio and we had some discuss on my talk page. AFAIK, this character is copyrighted and reproduction and distribution of copyrighted character needs copyright holder's consent. Thus I think this is copyvio.

Zanaq 15:41, 21 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment: We should be considering the copyrights of the characters themselves. It's basically a reproduction. It's somewhat similar to the Firefox deletion request, which got deleted. You may want to read this court case about the "re-packaged" Seinfeld book and this general information about graphic characters. Also " In Walt Disney Productions v. Air Pirates the court appeared to commingle copyright and trademark law infringement criteria by stating that the Disney characters used by the defendants had "achieved a high degree of 'recognition' and 'identification'" and that these elements helped make the characters protectable under copyright law." Those Star Wars images are hard to mistake. Thus falling into the protectable category. (posted elsewhere before) -- WB 03:18, 22 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Images with copyright claimed by Calvin J. Hamilton
editImage:Titania.jpg, Image:Venus_Galileo.jpg. Although these image came originally from NASA sadly a person that post processed them (the webmaster of solarviews.com) Calvin J. Hamilton claims own copyright on these image, see http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/ap960923.html and http://solarsystem.nasa.gov/planets/profile.cfm?Object=Titania. Possibly all images with such a brown sepia color (like Titania image) on NASA pages are from Calvin J. Hamilton and there are many more such images from Calvin here in Wikimedia Commons. So I would like the uploaders to ask Calvin J. Hamilton and NASA for clarification. Otherwise I fear that they have to be deleted (if we cannot prove for every single image by comparison with the original raw images that it does not have sufficient improvement to justify own copyright). Arnomane 12:22, 23 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- It is not that easy. Have you looked at the raw image of Image:Janus_moon.jpg? See: [27]. You will see that there has been a quite some post processing done by Calvin J. Hamilton.

Although this image is from a NASA page there is a very strange copyright notice at http://heasarc.gsfc.nasa.gov/docs/heasarc/missions/images/pvo_images.html, Quote: Images of the Pioneer Venus probes are courtesy of Ames Research Center and Hughes Aircraft Company. Ames Research Center is US-governmental but Hughes Aircraft Company certainly not. So it is questionable if these images are PD. Arnomane 12:29, 23 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep - It says "Credit", not "Copyright". That website makes clear which images are subject to outside copyright by tagging on "Credit & Copyright" (etc.) instead of just "Credit" (example: http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/ap000806.html).
- The about page states:
- "All the images on the APOD page are credited to the owner or institution where they originated. Some of the images are copyrighted and to use these pictures publicly or commercially one must write to the owners for permission. For the copyrighted images, the copyright owner is identified in the APOD credit line (please see the caption under the image), along with a hyperlink to the owner's location. NASA images are in the public domain…"
- This implies that all the images have a "Credit" line, but at least some do not have copyrights applied - this in turn implies that those with only a "Credit" line but no mention of copyright are not subject to copyright. ¦ Reisio 14:08, 23 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete. This photograph was likely taken in Germany and German copyright law has been standardised with the rest of the EU over this issue. Such dolls are not on permanent public display like sculptures or paintings in galleries and squares and thus do not fall under Panoramafreiheit. The doll is the main subject of the photograph and so the exception to copyright for incidental inclusion of a copyrighted work in a photograph does not apply either.

Copyvio. A photograph of a copyrighted cover does not void the original copyright. If you're lucky, it creates an additional copyright for the photographer.

The creator of the sculpture had to get permission from the creator of Lucky Luke to make the sculpture. 3. The person who took the picture may or may not have created a derivative (i.e. copyrighted) work - in any case, he has taken a picture of copyrighted items, which requires permission from the creators.

- Yes, it's possible I'm talking seriously. Would you all please get some information about copyrights. If you want to print this picture of a toy on a bed on a T-shirt and sell it, we'll see if Disney's lawyers agree. You can take pictures of all your toys if you want, but you can't put them under a free license as long as someone holds a copyright on them. I don't think the camera, the spatula etc. should be deleted too - their designers probably can't claim too much originality to the design. However, originality comes gradually - so if you design an especially "artful" new camera case, there's no problem to claim a copyright for it. That includes the right to take pictures of it and sell them, which means everyone else will have to get permission from you for doing the same thing. The same follows for paintings, sculptures and everything else with a high degree of originality. --Fb78 19:48, 24 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Did this from inside, which is is not allowed in DE (against Panoramafreiheit) --Brego 20:56, 26 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Question - It doesn't mean the image is copyrighted, right? It just means that you broke German law by taking the picture, right? Bas parler voir 21:03, 26 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Does not change the copyright status of this image, only a law might be broken if taking a photograph was forbidden from inside. --Denniss 21:42, 26 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Panoramafreieheit comes into this only if anything that's deemed copyrightable is schown on the picture. That may include architectonic features and decoration, as well as the obvious images, sculpures, etc. However, I don't belive that is true for this image, since it maily shows ruins that are literally thousands of years old.
- If you took the images in violation of the "house rules" of that place, this does not change the copyright of the image. I have no idea what they can do to you for it, besides throwing you out/not letting you in again. Possibly they could sue for demage, because they didn't sell as much postcards because of your image? Possible, but not very likely.
- That being said: it's up to you, Brego, if you want to take the risk. I don't see any problem with the copyright. -- Duesentrieb(?!) 22:32, 26 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Blame me, I really don't remember what the rules have been in that building. And for me this image is not worth enough to go through this ask-the-museum-if-it-were-allowed thing. So, I ask for the deletion, just to be on the safe side ;-) --Brego 18:38, 27 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Brego did not understand the sense of Panoramafreiheit although he should able to read the good article in the German Wikipedia on this topic. I cannot see a work protected by copyright on his picture. If not explicitly forbidden it is allowed to take photographs inside and to use them in any way you want - my point of view, see the article Wikipedia:Fotos von fremdem Eigentum --Historiograf 19:08, 27 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Wrong, it has nothing to do with copyright. Whatever is your understanding, it can be nonetheless my problem, if it wasn't right to do the photos, right? So be nice and better let me as source of the picture ask for a deletion. Fotos von fremden Eigentum is a mess of POV and I'm not in the mood for Haarespaltereien ;-) --Brego 20:31, 27 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Stop talking NONSENSE. When you are using Panoramafreiheit in your request for deletion you are speking of nothing else than copyright. Panoramafreiheit is only a copyright term. Yo have not proven that it was not right to take the photos from this heritage item. They are correctly licensed and I will upload them if they were deleted --Historiograf 01:04, 30 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Again you tried to confuse others: I referred to the part in the article Panoramafreiheit about consequences for me, when taking interior photographs, what has nothing to do with copyrights. It has to do with fairness and respect to my wish as the photographer. The point is: I shouldn't have uploaded this photograph. Humans make sometimes errors. Besides this, you may think about changing your interaction with others. Not everybody knows you from DE, but judges you from your behavior here, where we have this Wikipedia:Assume good faith guideline too. --Brego 19:36, 2 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

This work is copyrighted and certainly not "first published in the United States prior to January 1, 1923." --Teofilo 16:09, 26 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- It was painted in France in 1907 and bought in the late 30's by the Museum of Modern Art in NY, http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/cultureshock/flashpoints/visualarts/picasso_a.html then I suppose the work is copyrighted by the Artists Rights Society and anyway, the author's copyright has not expired yet, he died 33 years ago. This other image Image:Gertrude Stein by Pablo Picasso.jpeg might be in the same case, right? Anna 20:19, 26 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Well I guess these works were first published in France not in the United States. But it might be true that their publication in the United States took place before 1923. That might enable these works to be considered Public Domain in the United States. But they are still protected in France, so they have to be removed from Commons. --Teofilo 22:21, 26 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I recieved this communication from Juan Manuel Gamibno Valliscan on 01/19/2006: Juan Manuel says: Actually I do not want to send an SVG image, for it is a vector image format.... every one would use it as their wish, giving no credit at all.... If most of them refused to give credit to bit-map image, Do you figure it out what would happen with a vector-format image? Because of this, we cannot have this coat of arms, but other users complained in the past that other coat of arms we have used are not as accuarte or were incorrect in many respects. Since there is no way that we could use an SVG flag, like this, without violating the ToU that Juan Manul has stated to me, or appeasing our users, we should just stick to the PNG image and work on something for the SVG image at a later time. Zach (Smack Back) 00:58, 26 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep - While the flag is not entirely accurate, it is certainly adequate for smaller sized images; plus the fact that it is here will provide the next user with a basis from which to start, and upload it. Juan Manuel seems highly paranoid. Bas parler voir 02:48, 26 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- An afterthought. If we were worried about complete accuracy of the SVG versions of images then most of the flags we have here with emblems aren't going to be acceptable. Bas parler voir 02:53, 26 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. I have faith that this flag will eventually be improved. User:dbenbenn 03:24, 26 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- I am having trouble understanding what's going on here. Was this uploaded without permission, or with a misunderstanding that permission was given? Or is the original artist trying to change the license after granting? Does the problem affect all versions or just the most recent? Morven 05:57, 26 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- As I understand it, Jaun Manuel Gamibno Valliscan is responsible for the emblem on Image:Flag of Mexico.png. Zscout traced this image (with potrace in Inkscape, I'm guessing) to get the similar rendition on Image:Flag of Mexico.svg. I'm not sure that (a) we need permission to do things like this, or (b) we can't use the exact same image if it's truly accurate.
- Z, you might mention to Juan that if we're not using something based on his image, we'll just have to make our own, and it's sure to be at least as accurate. He'll then have _zero_ credit. ¦ Reisio 19:33, 26 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

License error, Rama is not Monet. -- ArtMechanic 23:33, 25 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- This is not a licence error. I am not Monet, but I took the photograph, and I claim copyright on the photograph (not on the painting, obviously). Rama 23:49, 25 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Die Kopie eines Werkes ist keine eigenständige schöpferische Leistung. Richtig wäre vielleicht {{PD-old}}. -- ArtMechanic 23:53, 25 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- I would appreciate if you could care to talk English like everybody else here.
- You are mistaken. Nothing prevents me from claiming copyright of a photograph of a painting, under French laws. As you have noticed, this photograph was taken in France, and French laws apply. Rama 23:57, 25 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Well this is nothing specific for Germany, that a reproduction of a two dimenional work does not give you an own copyright onto this reproduction, see e.g. w:Bridgeman Art Library v. Corel Corp. for the situation in the US. I guess there are similar cases in France too. But anyways we are talking here about Claude Monet that died in 1926... Arnomane 00:06, 26 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- The situation in France is unfortunately not affected by the German and US law and jurisprudence. As for Monet, I think that his work is now public domain, but I welcome any further data on this. Rama 00:09, 26 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Hey Rama come on. We both know that Germany is not France and vice versa (and ArsMechanic should please write in English so that everyone can follow the discussion) but this is something about the definition what copyright is. Copyright needs to have a substantial own creative work/improvement. And a pure reproduction (regardless if it was difficult to take it and I suppose you put quite some energy into it making it a perfect reproduction) fails this definition of substantial own work and this is international. The question is and this is different from county to country how much own creative work is needed to be able to protect it. And thus I would be very interested how high the barrier in France is as I do not know it. And by the way German "Urheberrecht" (copyright) is heavily influenced by the french "droit d'auteur" and not the anglo-saxon copyright like many other "german" laws that are coming from France (thanks to Napoleon and his revolutionary Code Civile). Arnomane 00:28, 26 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- But apart from that you are right. I have marked it as PD-old and explicitely added you as photographer as you are the source of this photo. Have a look if you like it. Arnomane 00:39, 26 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Die Kopie eines Werkes ist keine eigenständige schöpferische Leistung. Richtig wäre vielleicht {{PD-old}}. -- ArtMechanic 23:53, 25 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Claude Monet died in 1926, eg. more than 70 years ago so his works are in the public domain. My opinion is that it is important to protect the public domain from copyright claims by big business or individuals and I question the value of restricting people's freedom to use Monet's work as they please, even if only adding GFDL or CC to an image. Thuresson 00:56, 26 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- I think that there are a number of misunderstandings here which should be cleared:
- Copyright laws from country A and B do not apply to country C. Furthermore, laws from country C cannot be implied from the laws of countries A and B. "Copyright needs to have a substantial own creative work/improvement" is US jurisprudence. Can you point me to the French law (and perhaps jurisprudence) which say so ?
- Law, especially copyright law, is a complex topic. If it was possible to draw general conclusions about international copyright laws from "common sense", a whole lot of people would be searching for jobs.
- French law uses the concept of droit d'auteur ("author's right"), not copyright.
- "Claude Monet died in 1926, eg. more than 70 years ago" is a further instance of naive understanding of copyright laws. Copyright in France extends further than 70 years, to compensate for the World Wars. It is my understanding that Monet's work is now in the public domain anyhow, but "more than 70 years ago" is very symptomatic.
- There are a number of very real cases in France where people claim copyright for similar reproductions of bi-dimensional works (for instance, the Bibliothèque Nationale de France claims copyright on its reproductions). It might, or not, so be that these claims are in fact not valid; however, to this day, I am not aware of a clear decision on the matter in France.
- To the extend where I can claim copyright on my work, it is my wish to do so. I am not all that keen to putting my work in the Public Domain, notably because I desire all subsequent copies of it to be Free as well. Of course, if it is not possible to claim copyright, I am satisfied with Public Domain; however, in this case, since there have be no clear decision in France toward a "Copyright needs to have a substantial own creative work/improvement", I prefer staying on the safe side and claim copyright. Rama 08:17, 26 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Rama. please read my comment above. You will see that in Germany there is the very same concept of droit d'auteur ("author's right") thanks to the times we Germans were barbarians and did not have own ideas (for sure there are differences but they are far less than those between Germany and the US). Apart from that there are people in Germany as well that claim a copyright on reproduction. Well people can claim a lot if the day is long... (and they do, just some weeks ago I had a dispute with someone that wanted to sue Wikipedia because he thought we infringe his copyright on a scan of an old land map). So for now this discussion leads to nothing and the image will be kept anyways. Perhaps Villy and David.Moniaux can enlighten us at Commons:Licensing about the amount of substantial own work at that is necessary in France as they are French people and know the subject. So this discussion is now closed here. Arnomane 10:42, 26 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- I do not understand why you keep referring to German laws. They are certainly very interesting, but are totally irrelevant to this case. Rama 13:34, 26 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- I do not refer to German laws but for sure I know them (naturally best) and thus I might have a German bias. But these things I told you have in fact nothing to do with German specific stuff. I'm very interested (and for sure the rest of Commons too) in getting to know how much substantial own work is needed in order to have an own "droit d'auteur" on an work in France. This is something I do not know and that could be enlightened best by a French lawyer. And I assume we both are not French lawyers. I hope that in future you can also differentiate better between me and some other German person(s) that might go on your nerves. I tried to solve the matter with you and not against you.

- Rama uploaded an improved version with better colors under Image:Monet-Orsay-brut.jpg. I do not comment the possibly wrong license tag further but someone (preferably a french person) should sort that out as I'm not keen on having an argue if Rama does not listen to me. Arnomane 17:52, 29 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Sorry, I should have put a notice here as well. Arnomane, I am listening to you, but I have not seen you provide anything about French law; German and US laws are interesting, but one can not presume of what is in French law by analogy to what is in the law of foreign countries. There are instances of people in France who do claim copyright on trivial reproductions, so until I can get my hands on clear rulings of the matter, I think that we have to consider the matter at least doubtful.

The property rights attached to that image belong to the Nokia corporation who designed this industrial product. Fair use images are not allowed on Commons. --Teofilo 15:59, 26 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

This is tricky... while it is true that product design can be copyrighted, and photos of copyrighted objects would have to be licensed by the original designer as well as the photographer, but we have to draw a line somewhere. For example, we do allow images of cars, clothing, etc, while the designe of those objects often is copyrighted. On the othe hand, we do not allow pictures of book covers, cartoon figures, and the like. In another discussion on this page, someone suggested to allow pictures of objects if their look/design is not their primary purpose... sounds good in a way, but it's still hard to decide, especially for things like cell phones.
That being said: it seems the N-Gage is a borderline case here. I really don't know what to do about it. Copyright law is a mess :( -- Duesentrieb(?!) 16:59, 28 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- we do allow images of cars : on which basis do Wikipedians do so? Don't you think the car manufacturer may object the use of his cars in commercial uses such as posters or postcards? Can I make an advertisment for car wash equipment (soap or sponge) with a photograph showing someone washing a car without the consent of the car manufacturer? --Teofilo 18:40, 29 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- A hint is given on that page on a professional car photographer's internet site : Famous cars are instantly recognisable and their name, shape and logos are copyrighted by the manufacturer. Whilst permission is not normally required for editorial use in a positive way, permission from the manufacturer will be needed for advertising or merchandising use. It is your responsibility to ensure you have the required permission. Be sure to read out terms and conditions before using images. --Teofilo 12:46, 30 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep. I dont think that commercial and industrial products are protected by copyright law in most countries. eg in the UK only artistic works are included, everything else is only covered by trademark law.

If you can back it up with a real legal source it might be meaningful. Justinc 13:45, 1 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Question: Do you mean that images of commercial products cannot be released under a free license at all, or that we should merely not host them on Commons? Because if the former was true, non-fair use projects like de could not illustrate articles on commercial items at all, while in the latter case, it would only be a major inconvenience since every image could still to be uploaded to the projects directly. --grmwnr 10:25, 1 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

There's some rather loose terminology employed here. What you seem to be confusing is several distinct intellectual property rights. First there is the copyright that Nokia holds on the appearance of the item in question. Then there is the trademarks displayed on the phone, including the name Nokia itself. Third we have the design right in the phone. I don't know whether Finland has unregistered design right like the UK, but it certainly has registered design right and I strongly suspect that Nokia has registered the design of this kit.
We don't have to particularly worry about the trademarks or the design right on Commons. We aren't trying to manufacture copies of the phone so we aren't infringing the design right. Normal photos don't infringe trademarks unless used for things like advertising or used in such a way as to suggest that the holder of the trademark endorses what is being done with the photograph. Copyright is the thing we have to worry about. This object is not on permanent public display and so any exception to copyright in that respect is null and void. Taking a photograph with it as the main subject negates any exception to copyright with respect to incidental inclusion of a copyrighted object. This photograph is being used in a public place to the exception to copyright for private research also doesn't apply. If the photograph, as looks likely, was taken outside the US then fair use is not an issue. Fair use does not exist outside the United States and so anyone who relies on it for things like this is skating on very thin ice. David Newton 23:47, 10 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

See above. None of these pictures can be used commercially. They are all derivative works from copyrighted figures. --Fb78 20:28, 28 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- There is no consensus in this question. We need a permanent criteria about commercial objects, like this. --Patrick-br msg 11:22, 30 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- That's a different question. The problem you're referring to is whether industrial design objects like computer cases are copyrightable or not. Simpsons characters, just like any other comic book character, are clearly copyrightable (Do you disagree here?). That means, by taking a picture of them you produce a derivative work, which needs permission from the original creator (that's legal consensus in the US). Therefore you can't use these pictures outside "fair use".
- The purpose of these images here is to get around the copyright of their authors. Do you actually think you could take these pictures and modify them, e.g. for creating a comic strip with them, or a little movie? Would you print them in an ad? I don't think so. We're talking about figures that are copyrighted just like a modern statue. How do we treat modern works of art on Commons? We don't allow pictures of them unless they are installed permanently in a public place. If not, they have to go. Same here. --Fb78 12:00, 30 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Do you actually think you could take these pictures and modify them, e.g. for creating a comic strip with them, or a little movie? Would you print them in an ad? Same answers to all images on Apple Macintosh and Category:Porn stars (just two examples). --Patrick-br msg 13:05, 30 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- So? If you can prove that porn stars hold a copyright to their face and body, we'll have to talk about deleting these images. --Fb78 13:21, 30 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- So you are misconfusing copyright, right of image and trade mark. Image:CIA seal.jpg is under public domain, although No person may, except with the written permission of the Director, knowingly use the words “Central Intelligence Agency”, the initials “CIA”, the seal of the Central Intelligence Agency, or any colorable imitation of such words, initials, or seal in connection with any merchandise, impersonation, solicitation, or commercial activity in a manner reasonably calculated to convey the impression that such use is approved, endorsed, or authorized by the Central Intelligence Agency. There are limitations on use that are independent of copyright. So, yes, you can have these Bart Simpsons toys photos on commons, but you can´t use it for creating a comic strip, a little movie or print them in an ad. --Patrick-br msg 13:50, 30 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Nonsense. The creators of the Simpsons dolls have to agree with publishing photos of their works. Prove me wrong. --Fb78 14:12, 30 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- 1. US Copyright Act of 1976, Section 101: "A “derivative work” is a work based upon one or more preexisting works, such as a translation, musical arrangement, dramatization, fictionalization, motion picture version, sound recording, art reproduction, abridgment, condensation, or any other form in which a work may be recast, transformed, or adapted. A work consisting of editorial revisions, annotations, elaborations, or other modifications which, as a whole, represent an original work of authorship, is a “derivative work”." [35]
- 2. A photograph of a copyrighted item is considered a derivative work in US jurisdiction (see [36], [37], [38] for example).
- 3. US Copyright Act of 1976, Section 106: "(...) (T)he owner of copyright under this title has the exclusive rights to do and to authorize any of the following: (...) (2) to prepare derivative works based upon the copyrighted work;"

Declared as public domain by the uploader on the casis that Cajal (the subject) died in 1934.

Obsoleted by Image:Flag of the Australian Aborigines.svg. -- Denelson83 03:25, 28 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Uploaded by me. Redundant, a new svg version it's aviable at Image:Flag of Asturias.svg.
REASON -- Made Redundant by Image:K522 multitonality.png (note lowercase "png"). This newer version includes necessary labels for the parts. Rainwarrior 12:21, 28 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- ARGUMENTS -- The horn part is not labelled, and while an experienced score-reader might be able to guess its correct transposition, due to the example's exceptional nature as an example of polytonality the transposition should not rightly be omitted. Rainwarrior 12:21, 28 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep - Several reasons.
- The parts you have written are in English. Commons files must be available for use in many different wikipedias. This file is presently in use at the Italian, Korean, Greek and Hungarian wikipedias. Therefore this file is not redundant.
- This type of file is better made into an SVG file. I've replaced the redundant tags with a {{ConvertToSVG}} tag. Bas parler voir 12:39, 28 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- That's a good point. I'd actually be willing to create SVG versions for each of these languages if I could be given a list of instrument names in those languages. I would make the point that without the labels, the diagram is essentially incorrect, and in published scores instrument names are never actually translated. The original published score this is quoting from would have certainly have had the names in Italian, actually, and had I realized this appeared in other languages I would have used the more standard Italian names instead. The point, however, of my revision was not to add instrument names, but to clarify the pitch of the top line, which basically should be clear now to anyone who can read a score even though the specific instrument names are in English.
- What I'm saying is that, for the moment, a correct example in English is still probably a lot more understandable than an incorrect example with no language. I'll get on creating multi-lingual SVG versions though. Rainwarrior 16:24, 29 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Note that once the image is available in SVG format, it's a simple matter to perform new translations as needed, so arguably it's not necessary to preemptively do them all unless you really want to. Deco 23:34, 29 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

User:Jat has recently started trying to subcategorize Category:Photos. I agree that something should be done about that category, but I don't think this is the right thing. We already have Category:Food with lots of subcategories. Surely we shouldn't start creating a copy of the whole category tree within Category:Photos? User:dbenbenn 21:06, 29 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Absolutely not - we should have a category for photos and one for food, which we do. In the future Mediawiki may add support for category intersection, until then we shouldn't be doing it by hand except perhaps in cases of extreme need, because it creates a significant maintenance overhead. Deco 23:32, 29 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. Category:Photos also should be emptied and then deleted, shouldn't it? --Teofilo 11:30, 30 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Well the category Photos was/is overpopulated, there was a request posted to move photos from there, and no one was doing anything about it. I decided to try making it easier for people to search for relevant photographs. It was hell trying to search for anything in category Photos. You forget that food photos were already posted in the overpopulated cat:photos and to me it seems that only way (at least for now) is do move them by hand one by one. anyway with so many people ready to criticise without doing anything themselves, I am staying away.

The picture shows the logo of a library-related institution at the building of the Rhinland Palatinate state library at Koblenz. The logo is not copyrighted (lack of originality/Schöpfungshöhe) and if it would so the photograph qualifies for German Panoramafreiheit. Commons is generally logo-sceptic. If this logo can be kept some other similar logos might be have a chance here.

Olympic flags
editAccording to Chapter 1, rule 7, section 2 of the Olympic Charter, the Olympic flag is a copyrighted property of the International Olympic Committee. But then Bye-law to rules 7-14, paragraphs 4.9 and 4.10 restricts commercial use of the flag, which violates Commons:Licensing#Acceptable licenses. Zzyzx11 19:50, 29 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Nonsense. Photos of persons have also restricted commercial use and so on. The protection of the Olympic flags is - speaking for Germany - a new immaterial law sui generis not a copyright protection. --Historiograf 00:59, 30 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- So what will happen to the flags of specific NOC's, like Chinese Taipei and the United German flag used in the 1950's? Zach (Smack Back) 04:32, 5 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
They may claim copyright over the flag, but they can't stop people from creating images of it. The flag is permanently displayed in publically accessible areas in countries which allow an exception to copyright for images taken of such objects. Since an image of the flag when that flag is flying from in a publically accessible area is not a copyvio in most countries then derivative works of such images, ie the files above, are not copyvios. The only area that Commons would have to worry is trademark infringement and I don't see how encylopedia articles infringe any IOC trademarks. David Newton 00:22, 11 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
