Re: Image Deletion Tag

Hi, thanks for the heads up. Yes, I'm currently looking into the reason for its deletion from the article and have my eye on it. Hopefully, I'll be able to get it back in without any conflict.TorBel80 (talk) 20:27, 30 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of File:CTSRW01.JPG

A tag has been placed on File:CTSRW01.JPG requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F2 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an image page for a missing or corrupt image or an empty image description page for a Commons-hosted image.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

The point was that this is a Commons image so the correct place to make the rename proposal would be on the Commons. I did think about moving it on the Commons but seeing how many other wikis are using the poor quality name, I contented myself with creating a redirect. And now to cap it all it is up for deletion on freedom of panorama grounds! — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 21:49, 29 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

File:The Why Axis.png

You flagged this file for transfer to Commons, but it appears to me that the file has an invalid licensing tag. The image is a book cover, and is likely copyrighted by the publisher of the book. The uploader appears to be a relative of one of the book's authors, and is unlikely to hold the copyright, and is therefore not eligible to release the image to the public domain. The image has valid fair use on the English Wikipedia, but I was under the impression that fair use images are not eligible for transfer to Commons. Can you please review this case again?

CSD log

Re: User:Sfan00 IMG/CSD log: you should have taken action on this two years ago. It is now just ridiculously large. I am being told that I cannot delete it because it has more than 5000 edits. You must contact a steward to do the deed for you. (I come from an age when a 10M byte hard disk was big. I know disk space is ridiculously cheap these days but still the idea of gobbling up 400k bytes to record a 100 byte edit looks like waste to me.) — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 10:45, 2 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The size of the page is noted.. Is there a way for future logging to split it by date, so this situation doesn't arise again? I can't imagine anyone (other than AWB users and bots) being able to generate over 5000 edits in 24 hours.ShakespeareFan00 (talk) 11:54, 2 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

At a rough estimate your page had gobbled up about 1.8G bytes of Wikipedia's, apparently limitless, disk space. Prevent arising again? Simples: whenever the page reaches 64k bytes (my personal limit for my user talk page - you may chose a different limit if you wish), move the page to, for example, User:Sfan00 IMG/CSD log/2013 Sep 03. Then go back to User:Sfan00 IMG/CSD log and blank it in case a redirect confuses the logging operation. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 22:21, 2 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

File source problem with File:SFSD lo-res patch.jpg

Thank you for uploading File:SFSD lo-res patch.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. Please add this information by editing the image description page.

If the necessary information is not added within the next days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

Please refer to the image use policy to learn what images you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. Please also check any other files you have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a list of your uploads. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 10:05, 2 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

You know, I don't really recall where exactly that image came from; it's been over six years since I uploaded it. I would agree that whoever put the public domain template on the image page did so in error, because the image is effectively a trademark/logo. The fair-use rationale that accompanied my initial upload of the image was valid at the time. I'm not sure what has changed in the meantime (I've been busy with law school and, of late, working for the US Army Corps of Engineers), but I'm sure that if you know the current state of the rules, you can bring the original fair-use rationale up to modern standards. As for the source, why not just use the logo's owner, whose name appears prominently in the image itself?

I'll leave this in your court, so fix the image-attribute template if you please. Just remember, the image enhances the Encyclopedia, and the readers should not be deprived of the value it provides if there is any valid justification for it to stay. Please respond on my Talk page; I don't actively monitor anything else right now. Thanks. --Dynaflow babble 18:52, 2 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

File:Upsala College NJ SEAL.jpg

I should have uploaded this as a non-free content logo.

Could you repair the permissions on this for me? The logo is that of a defunct college, I doubt there's a intellectual property problem because under US trademark law a defunct corporation forfeits its trademark if not actively used within a few years. Never the less, the image use and non-free content policies allow for a logo to be uploaded and used provided its use is minimal and not conflicting with commercial use by its owner.

The logo was on a commemorative Upsala College plate, I took a picture of the plate. The resolution was lowered and the image cropped because the rest of the plate wasn't necessary. The image is mine, the plate was made someone else.

I see people speedy deleting files, but I don't know how to do it. I uploaded two pictures to public domain that I made myself, but the second one was uploaded purely because I stuffed up the first one! They are essentially the same file, only the first one is a stuff up, and so can be deleted.

Concerns about an image

Hey, I noticed that you flagged File:Vampires kiss poster 2013.jpg as a candidate to be moved to the Commons. I kind of want to warn you that the image in question is related to an article that's up for AfD (Joanna Grimes) and is suspected of being a hoax. The editor in question that made the page briefly created another article in their userspace that was a blatant hoax, which they then deleted. I would probably hesitate to transfer this to the Commons in this instance, as there's nothing out there to really substantiate the claims in any context. I have a feeling that this is a fairly elaborate hoax when you get down to the claims and the lack of sourcing when you figure that the editor claims that Grimes is in the newspapers each week, has a picture deal with Dreamworks and Paramount, and has Craig Olejnik and Ian Harding starring in the movie. I'll probably tag the image as a hoax accordingly. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 07:36, 13 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Images marked to be copied to commons

Hi Sfan00 IMG, You have marked the following images as reviewed and ready to be copied to commons: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. I am not familiar with this process, so before I copy them, I would like to know whether a OTRS ticket has been issued that I should use in Commons, or if your statement that they have been reviewed is somehow valid there. Can you give me some clues, please? It would be best for them to have a page in commons to link to, because the museum article here is tagged with COI, it looks like a pamphlet and I am currently trying to help out by reducing it to something more acceptable. Thank you. Hoverfish Talk 21:18, 13 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

File:The Museum of Arts and Sciences of Epirus.jpg: The uploader's username and the photographer's name match. There's plenty of pixels and there's metadata (camera information at the bottom of the file page). This one is very likely the uploader's own photo and is okay to keep and to host on the Commons.
File:Map of the Museum of Arts and sciences of Epirus.png: Uploader asserts that he made the map. I was unable to locate any copies on the Web that it could have been copied from, so this one looks to be okay to host here and to copy to the Commons.
File:Oil paint "Greek Symposium".jpg: This painting was created in 1993 according to Stefan's investigation, and therefore we need the artist's permission to host the file here. Stefan has nominated it for deletion at Wikipedia:Possibly unfree files/2013 September 13#File:Oil paint "Greek Symposium".jpg.
File:The ded of the sea.jpg: Stefan has nominated this image for deletion at Wikipedia:Possibly unfree files/2013 September 13#File:The ded of the sea.jpg, as we do not have permission of the creator of the painting.

File:AvtoportretG.jpg

This one should not be on the Commons, because the painter who created the artwork was born in 1959. Therefore the license template is incorrect (the copy on the Commons sports a different license tag). We have no proof that the artist gave their permission for the artwork to be displayed here. When you see stuff like this, both copies need to be nominated for deletion please. -- Diannaa (talk) 22:29, 14 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Anytime people upload photographs of someone's artwork, an OTRS ticket is required. Otherwise we have no way of knowing whether the artist has given their permission. This requirement has legal implications for the Wikimedia Foundation. -- Diannaa (talk) 16:23, 15 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

This was also my concern a few sections above. It may be acceptable for Wikipedia when a photo of an artwork is tagged as OK by someone who has checked on the best available data here, but I am hesitant to do the copying to Commons as I am pretty sure they require an OTRS there. If someone can advice me on how to proceed with the copying of the photos mentioned, I would be very grateful. Hoverfish Talk 16:37, 15 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

File:Bhagat Singh 1922.jpg

This photo was taken in 1927, not 1922 as claimed in the file name. Therefore it might not be in the public domain outside India.

I have nominated both copies for deletion. -- Diannaa (talk) 16:19, 15 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. I'll keep tagging in good faith, and you'l keep finding the baduns :) Sfan00 IMG (talk) 16:22, 15 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

No, that is most definitely not okay. You are generating extra work the administrators both here and on the Commons. If a sketchy image is transferred to the Commons, you've just doubled the admin workload, and created lots of extra work for people like me. You need to do a better job of evaluating the copyright status of these images, and nominating for deletion yourself any that shouldn't be hosted here. Every single image you look at, please take the time to evaluate its copyright status. Please don't tag images to be moved to the Commons that you are not 100% sure have a right to be hosted both here and on the Commons. And images that are already hosted on the Commons that shouldn't be there need to be nominated for deletion (in other words, don't just tag the local copy for F8 and then walk away). Here are some general tips (Ping @Stefan2: please check these points and make corrections / additions):

Tiny images are almost always copied from somewhere on the Internet. There's a script you can install to locate other copies of images on the web. Please copy this script into your common.js (this script is available automatically at the Commons):

// 
// Googling (based on Commons:MediaWiki:Gadget-GoogleImages.js):
if (wgNamespaceNumber == 6) {
  var images = document.getElementById('file').getElementsByTagName('img');
  var imageurl = images[0].parentNode.href;
  mw.util.addPortletLink('p-cactions', 'https://www.google.com/searchbyimage?image_url=' + encodeURIComponent(imageurl), 'Google Images');
}
 
//

Images of famous people are almost always copyright violations.
Images of ultra high quality are almost always copied from somewhere online.
Check out the metadata at the bottom of the file page; sometimes there's copyright information embedded there. Absence of metadata does not prove an image is a copyright violation, but its presence is a good clue that the photo is the uploader's own work, and most recent legit uploads will contain it.
If the file page says "sent to me personally" or "evidence: will be provided on request", that means the uploader is not the photographer and therefore not the copyright holder. These images should be tagged for F11 speedy deletion unless they have an OTRS Pending tag.
Photos of two-dimensional artwork where the artist is alive need OTRS tickets. Two-dimensional artwork created after 1923 is in almost all cases still under copyright.
Freedom of panorama laws apply to three-dimensional artwork. Please see commons:Commons:Freedom of panorama for the laws governing this.
Logos of schools and businesses, magazines, book covers, and the like have no business being on the Commons in almost all cases. They need to be tagged for fair use. Most uploaders won't know the ins and outs of how to do this, so if you see one that's in use and you can locate a source for it online, you should convert it to fair use. Example of what to do. This is what I am going to do if I run across the image; it's a better choice than deletion, and I suggest you do the same.
The Hirtle Chart is a great resource you can use to help determine the copyright status of images. Stefan is very knowledgeable (but not infallible) and I am sure he would be willing to answer questions. and you can ask me as well; i am not as knowledgeable as Stefan but I know lots. -- Diannaa (talk) 17:43, 15 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your hints. Expect complaints shortly :) Sfan00 IMG (talk) 17:56, 15 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for taking this in good spirit, and thanks for all your help with images. Sorry it's all so fiendishly complex, but I suppose (like golf or climbing or chess) if Wiki were easy it would soon lose its charm. Here's a couple moar:

Please assess the validity of copyright tags on the article. For example, if it's tagged as being taken by a US Govt employee in the course of their duties, we need a link proving that.
All images need source information. If there's no source provided, the reviewer on the Commons will delete it, so there's no point sending it over. Unsourced images on en.wiki qualify for F4 speedy deletion. -- Diannaa (talk) 18:03, 15 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- The code looks identical to the code at User:Stefan2/common.js, so it looks right. On Commons, I think that the Google Images gadget has to be switched on at Commons:Special:Preferences.

Some extra comments:

If the uploader has uploaded several photos, it pays off to check all of them. The metadata typically contains the name of the camera model. Most people have access to a limited number of cameras, so if a user has uploaded 100 images using 100 different camera models, then the files are likely copyright violations. On the other hand, if there are 100 images taken using 1-2 different camera models, then they are unlikely to be copyright violations.
Compare the upload date with the creation date in the metadata. If the photo was both uploaded and created today, then it is likely fine. A file taken today has typically not yet been widely distributed, so copyright violators might not yet have found the image. On the other hand, if the file was uploaded today and taken 10 years ago, then chances are a lot bigger that the image was downloaded from some website somewhere. The date of photography check is not enough to assume that something is a copyright violation, but it may give you an indication that something potentially is wrong.

In my opinion, simply tagging everything with {{NowCommons}} if the file exists on Commons is better than ignoring the files altogether as that brings the file to someone's attention. Files which should not be on Commons can then be deleted. A bot, User:MGA73bot, used to tag files this way. Files with {{keep local}} and {{do not move to Commons}} should not be tagged, though. --Stefan2 (talk) 18:21, 15 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

That's very true: Tagging as NowCommons means the image will be reviewed by an admin, who will presumably thoroughly check these things. But any assessment / deletion nominations undertaken by non-admins is a Good Thing, as there's very few admins working image deletions at present, and the backlogs can get overwhelmingly huge. -- Diannaa (talk) 18:33, 15 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

RE : File:Armorial of Henry Sinclair of Roslin.png

Hello. On the matter of the upload I note that the upload came up for copying to commons. As I'm a newbie here I am unsure what is being asked. I did the render. The source file is on commons as File:Blason Henri Ier Sinclair.svg. The blazone is rendered by User:Jimmy44 and the Armorial de Gelre (the source document) indicates a crest: Cimier : Une tête de chameau au naturel, une couronne d'argent. I simply rendered this crest in order to create a topic of discussion. I am ok with putting it on commons if that is what is being asked? Family locator (talk) 06:58, 19 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Demi Lovato image

Hi, may I ask you how you reviewed this file? While it is a good picture in therms of quality, I think it maybe should be deleted because when you go to the source, you notice it's a Facebook fan page. There are other pictures of her, but I don't think that the admin of this page is the photographer of this picture... It could easily have been taken from another website. --Sofffie7 (talk) 18:08, 20 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Update: The image comes from E! Online. I don't know if the person that uploaded the image is from E! Online, but if not the licensing would be wrong as it says "I, the copyright holder of this work"...

The image has been deleted while I was writing my previous message. Anyways, forget everything ;) Cheers, Sofffie7 (talk) 18:21, 20 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

No removal please of the photo Motion in the article on PINK de Thierry

I sent today the following mail (with an attachment from the Utrechts Archief) to permissions-en@wikipedia.org:

Dear madam / sir

Attached you find the permission to use the photo on internet. When used by third persons on internet the credentials of the photo has to be mentioned (and not to be paid for). So use on internet is from now on free though I would restrict it for use on Wikepedia (global) only. In the contemporary arts the freedom of distribution of these kind of photos is essential.

The photo is used in the enWiki article ‘’PINK de Thierry’’ and stored in Wikimedia under: File:"Motion", Utrecht 1969. Intervention art project by Mass Moving in city center.tif The following is important: 1. The photo shows a moment in one the many actions in a street intervention artwork. 2. The intervention project itself was 100% financed by the City of Utrecht (= local government, thus public institution) 3. The copyright on the photo is in the hands of Utrechts Archief (The Utrecht Archives is a 100% Public Service of the City of Utrecht) 4. There is no copyright on the created action by the street intervention group Mass Moving (see the article itself) 5. The Free Art License seems an adequate license for this use of the photo

Hopefully you can agree with this. Otherwise I hope to hear what is the best to do in this case. As I am a newcomer in Wikipedia I haven’t yet a full view in the rulings in the Wikipedia jungle, so please assist me in this case.

Thank you very much for your attention.

Yours sincerely,

Donald Louw

New York Daily Mirror

The New York Mirror is defunct. It ceased publication in 1972. There is no successor paper. I doubt if the copyright (if there was one) was ever renewed. I probably should have uploaded it under the free use template. I'll do it under another name and we can delete this file.Shemp Howard, Jr. (talk) 13:20, 27 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

File:John Aasen.jpg

Hi I noticed that you tagged one of the photos I uploaded onto the John Aasen page. the permission is shown at this link http://www.springerimages.com/Images/MedicineAndPublicHealth/1-10.1007_s11102-012-0389-5-4 just scroll down to license is says "This image is published with open access under the Creative Commons Attribution license." It should be ok to use but if that's not correct or if we can't use it without written permission from the photographer then it is ok to delete it.

Question concerning speedy deletion of File:Kennedy-Thorndike experiment.svg

Is the deletion software intelligent enough to seek out and automatically change all references to "File:Kennedy-Thorndike experiment.svg" in the English Wikipedia to "File:Kennedy-Thorndike experiment DE.svg" in Commons?

No, but the template message for CSD F8,indicates links SHOULD be updated before the file is removed.Sfan00 IMG (talk) 23:17, 2 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Except for the reference on "User:Multichill/Free uploads/2012-07-26", which was bot-generated, all references to this file have been changed to "File:Kennedy-Thorndike experiment DE.svg", and it should be OK to speedy delete the version on the English Wikipedia.

Hi. I've removed the {{Copy to Commons}} tag from File:Racing Is Life, McQueen Advertisment.jpg (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs), because the image is a derivative work.
