Thank you for the ping

Thanks for the ping you left here. I only just got the ping, but when I get time I'll try and respond to what has been said. Briefly, for now, I came across these images after many of them had been done, and both queried them and then requested more of the same. My understanding that this was OK was I think in part based on how some newspapers (famously) publish drawings of people rather than using photos, and that if you use minimal elements from different photos, you would create something sufficiently different to not be a derivative of the originals. @Clindberg: in case he can remember the newspaper I am thinking of, though I suspect they probably use artists that work from a range of photos and creatively produce a new pose that isn't derivative. Carcharoth (talk) 06:27, 28 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Carcharoth: Re-reading the original Wikipedia talk thread, perhaps a misunderstanding arose from Stephencdickson using the word "composite" to mean "original artwork cutout + background + pastel", and missing your point about not being able to use single images. There's a deletion discussion at Commons:Deletion requests/Files uploaded by Stephencdickson now, and nearly all of the uploads appear to have been closely derived from single original sources, with no greater changes than occasionally altering academic robes into shirts and ties. (It may be that these are very subtle composites using eyes or mouths from other images, but we've yet to see any clear explanation from Stephencdickson of how the drawings were made, just that it is a laborious process. I did ask on the user's talk page if any were drawn from multiple sources, but received no response.) It looks like we're almost ready to remove the images which appear to be copyright infringements, anyway. --Lord Belbury (talk) 07:20, 28 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah. I feel bad about this, as Stephencdickson contributed all those illustrations in good faith. I hope more people than just me will encourage him and not be too confrontational about this (the PD-based material is fine). I think the newspaper I was thinking of was the New York Times. There is a long tradition of artists drawing illustrations of famous people for the NYT. See here for an example. See also here for advice such as "you can [...] combine several photos for inspiration and reference for your own scene, not copy them directly." That last bit being important. Carcharoth (talk) 10:49, 28 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Carcharoth: Yeah, I regret that the deletion process looks confrontational in retrospect, I didn't fully appreciate the public domain angle at the time, when Stephencdickson was mainly talking about having avoided copyright and everyone else was saying "yes, derivative work, inappropriate". And sure, Wikipedia's welcome page for donated artwork actively encourages portraits "based on multiple photos found using search engine results". --Lord Belbury (talk) 08:03, 29 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Use of PD-old-assumed

For File:Alfred i Hedwig Pringsheim.png, you changed PD-old-70 to PD-old-assumed. This changed a specific license to a weaker one unnecessarily. As the artist died 114 years ago, as was stated on the image page before your change, there is absolutely no doubt about public domain status, no need for any assumptions.

Thanks --Fæ (talk) 22:40, 21 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Fæ: Thanks, you're absolutely right and looking back I have no idea what I was thinking there. --Lord Belbury (talk) 07:51, 22 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

This media may be deleted.

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

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

Warning: unless the permission information is given, the file may be deleted after seven days. Thank you.

@Patrick Rogel: It's a crop of an existing cc-licenced commons image. Is saying as much not sufficient? This was all automated via CropBot. --Lord Belbury (talk) 16:06, 15 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. I've put the original file on deletion so the cropped version is as well. --Patrick Rogel (talk) 16:07, 15 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Patrick Rogel: Oh, okay. The original image upload is from a user claiming it as their own work, though, looking at it. Isn't that proof that Commons has received their permission? --Lord Belbury (talk) 16:13, 15 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Following your message the original file is still missing permission (that's why such a permission has been asked). --Patrick Rogel (talk) 10:34, 21 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

You shouldn't care of this matter since it's Kriskina's business to provide a permission within a week (starting August 15). Now please wait after an Administrator's decision regarding this file. Yours, --Patrick Rogel (talk) 10:40, 21 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

September 2019: it's Wiki Loves Monuments time again!

Licence fix

It could take you the same time if instead of editing with "{{Template:Wrong license}}" you had just pasted "{{PD-Old}}". I am sorry, but I don't think this is a useful way to cooperate to the project. I have been helped by hundreds of users who update information to the files I upload (mostly due to problems in the Upload wizard system I already tried to have fixed without success), but unfortunatly not all users are that good... --Sailko (talk) 22:11, 4 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

File deletion

Lord Belbury has deleted all my files without giving any explanation! He says that one of my files named Tapan Kumar Pradhan (1995) is similar to some other file. If he has any objection to this file, he should have asked me for clarification. But without informing me can you delete all my files? Subhrasingh (talk) 06:27, 30 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Subhrasingh: I haven't deleted all of your files, and I have informed you of this, and given an explanation: I opened a discussion at Commons:Deletion requests/Files uploaded by Subhrasingh to determine the copyright status of the files, and your input would be appreciated there. --Lord Belbury (talk) 08:34, 30 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@lordbelbury Dear Sir, you have flagged all my files for deletion. And editors after you are simply copy pasting your comments on my uploads. I don’t know how wikimedia works. But it is obvious that the comments made by first reviewer will be picked up by subsequent reviewers to get a negative opinion about the uploaded. That is how human psychology works. You had objection only to the file Tapan Kumar Pradhan (1995). But why did you copy paste the same comment on all my files. Even pictures taken by my own smartphone a few months ago has been flagged with 1995 picture comments. What kind of logic is this? By your thoughtless action you have simply damaged my reputation for future reviewers. I find it extremely depressing and demoralising. If you have any doubts regarding any upload, will you first seek feedback from the uploaded, or will you just red flag it for deletion? I don’t think I shall upload any more files until the deletion flag is removed from the existing files. But I see little chance of my files accepted by future reviewers, since you have simply damaged my reputation completely. Are you not misusing your Reviewer Privilege? Kindly think about it. Regards.

User:Lord Belbury is misusing (his) priviledges

I believe you're clearly misusing whatever priviledges you have by continuosly flagging images without a thorough investigation or understanding of the policies that relate to them. As I have observed from you flagging my uploads and those of many people, as evidence even the posts on your talk page. Take time and read people's posts and see my point. You may see this as a way of expressing an authority but this is totally not a healthy behavior for others, and I may have to report you to admin. For instance, you didn't properly understand the interpretation of a statement granting rights for images by a third party, and you jumped to conclusion and decided what you thought was the meaning. I could recommend most of your uploads for deletion if I want to pull the similar feat you are doing now, but I don't do vendettas in my life. I prefer dialogues that may seek for answers or solutions. --Hassanjalloh1 (talk) 12:37, 4 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Hassanjalloh1: I have no particular privileges here at Commons. I am only raising flags for others to assess, and an image will only be removed after an admin has reviewed it. If I have misunderstood Commons copyright policies, the images will not be deleted. I think these cases are very clear cut, though: you have taken photos explicitly not released under a CC-Attribution licence and added that licence to them, apparently without the permission of the copyright holders. --Lord Belbury (talk) 13:01, 4 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Seriously, your view about Commons policy is very narrow and this may get you into a lot of hurdles with other editors. According to you, if an image does not showw CC Attribute at source, there must be a direct confirmation from the author. Really?? Then it would be so ironical for you to ignore the thousands of images (including your uploads) that do not indicate a CC Attribute at source or confirmation from the author. I may have to review your own images and recommend for deletion anyone that is not in compliance with what you just stated, because I have found many of your uploads that are contrary to this. Society is so complex to look at things in black or white. There is always a grey area. Always. That's why policies are overwritten and developed. The key here you should focus on are images that indicate "copyright" (c) or a name credit. Facebook policy general indicates that when you choose the public upload option, you opt to release your rights to the image (except indicated otherwise). And in all the images that you flagged there is none that is copyrighted. So if an image is not copyrighted, then it is what...--Hassanjalloh1 (talk) 13:37, 4 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Hassanjalloh1: Thanks, by all means review my uploads, if I've ever uploaded something as CC-Attribution when it wasn't then that should be corrected.

I don't know where you're getting the idea that uploading an image to Facebook releases the owner's rights to it. --Lord Belbury (talk) 13:41, 4 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Clearly this is one of your main problems, that's why you're having issues with other users. You think every photo uploaded must come from a source that is CC-Attribution. And a majority of uploads on Commons didn't come from such sources. If you think your own uploads must come from a source that says CC-Attribution, then it's fine but it is not a requirment or must for Commons. Please understand this difference, if not you and many people will have issues here. --Hassanjalloh1 (talk) 16:39, 4 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Hassanjalloh1: I'm not saying that everything has to be CC-Attribution (an old painting won't be, a simple geometric shape won't be, and images can also just be released as full-on public domain), but if you are going to write "This file is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 license" on a file when you upload it, then that claim has to be true. You shouldn't use the CC-Attribution template when you really mean that you found it on Facebook, or that it was released under CC-Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs and you've decided it's okay to drop the NonCommercial-NoDerivs. There are no correct templates for those meanings, because they aren't valid rationales for uploading a picture to Commons. --Lord Belbury (talk) 16:45, 4 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

You say: "There are no correct templates for those meanings, because they aren't valid rationales for uploading a picture to Commons." You see, you just basically echoed my point. This shows that your "black and white" rules are not suitable for the community. I believe embracing the underlying spirit of why there are attempts to provide guidelines for uploads will be a good start. As I have gone through the literature on Commons, I believe Attribution is the key; second is to make sure there are no restrictions to uploading and sharing the photos and not an explicit indication of free to use. Your main problem is that you always tend to focus on an explicit indication of free to use. more than the core two. --Hassanjalloh1 (talk) 18:11, 4 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Hassanjalloh1: And your "embrace the underlying spirit" attitude is a new one on me! Let's see how the deletion discussions go and how the admins decide to close them, I guess, it's not up to either of us. All the best. --Lord Belbury (talk) 18:18, 4 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Commons:Harassment notice

User:Lord Belbury I would to to inform you that I have reasonable grounds to believe that I might be a subject of harassment by you. I'm taking this initial step to inform you before I take this matter to admin, for someone else to look into this matter. Your approach to vetting my uploads, your dedication on it is really unprecedently. I believe you are not approaching my uploads in good faith. The extremes you go to defend your actions is clear evidence of cases in which someone may have more than just trying to enforce Commons policies. And this I believe deserves others concerns into it. This is an intital step, for you to know. --Hassanjalloh1 (talk) 12:08, 6 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Hassanjalloh1: Sure, go ahead. The page you want would be Commons:Administrators' noticeboard/User problems. --Lord Belbury (talk) 12:13, 6 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Fine. Please, I'd very much appreciate it if you could stay away from anything that relates to my account while I pursue this case, and let other editors look into it. You've done more than enough. You're not the ONLY editor here. It's rare the length you go to defend even my photos you "recommended for deletion." Never seen this before. Really weird. Hassanjalloh1 (talk) 12:51, 6 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Hassanjalloh1: Sure. --Lord Belbury (talk) 12:57, 6 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Hassanjalloh1: Please don't go back and fix individual typos in your old posts on my talk page, it means I get a ping every time. You shouldn't edit comments once they've been replied to anyway, particularly not when they change the tone of what you're saying.

You're required to notify me once you've reported me on the admin noticeboard. Apart from that, if you're asking me to stay away from your account, please stay away from mine also. Thanks! --Lord Belbury (talk) 14:19, 6 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Lord Belbury: Really? Why would I change my tone? I double-typed "to" twice instead of typing "like" and you call this "changing the tone"? A reasonable person would know that was a simple typo and has nothing to do with the tone of my message. Well, you thought to reverse the edit, that's fine. --Hassanjalloh1 (talk) 14:35, 6 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

If you're asking me to stay away from your account, please stay away from mine also. Thanks again. --Lord Belbury (talk) 14:38, 6 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Commons:Harassment notice (again, second time)

User:Lord Belbury I'm posting this for the second time for you to know. What you posted on my talk page just continues to prove my point of you really harassing me here. And I will have to report this matter (my own time and plan, not according to what you might think). You posted this on my talk page: "A week ago you asked me to 'stay away' from your uploads while you contacted administrators about our disagreements on licencing, and you said you'd let 'other editors' look into it. It looks like you've decided against doing that, so if I don't see any such process being started in the next couple of days I'll take another look at your uploads to check that they've all been licenced correctly." Who are you to put pressure on me to decide when and how to file a complaint?! It's none of your business when or whether I file a complaint or not. You baselessly recommended a bunch of my photos for deletion, and that still doesn't satisfy you, you are still looking for more ways to hurt me. This just shows that you are definitely targeting me. And you saying, YOU WILL BE LOOKING INTO MY UPLOADS again is a clear sign of harassment, despite asking you to stay out of my account, and allow other editors to do whatever is necessary about my account (my uploads and our conversations are on the deletion queue where many other editors can view them and definitely trace our issue; that alone could be enough to show what is happening between us). You pressing me like this is TOTAL HARASSMENT! You've proven to me that you are not approaching my account in good faith. Please stay away from me until our issue is resolved one way or the way. If you continue to harass me, you will just be building my case for me. And I will use it all against you in my complaint to admin. I WILL FILE A COMPLAINT. FOR SURE! But not base on what you want me to do, as that will not happen. I will never succumb to your threats and harassment.--Hassanjalloh1 (talk) 15:20, 13 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Why have you marked my file MattyColesMusician1 as a copyright violation. It’s entirely owned by me. 2A00:23A8:41D8:A000:6807:D546:4368:EAFE 13:36, 13 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. I tagged three album covers you uploaded where the artist name (Matty Coles) didn't match the username (Oliver J Ricketts). As the template says, "If you are the copyright holder and the creator of the file, please read Commons:But it's my own work! for tips on how to provide evidence of that." --Lord Belbury (talk) 13:39, 13 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Lord Belbury is misusing Wikipedia

I believe Lord Belbury is misusing the right to flag images as copyright violations - continuous flagging without proper investigation of the ownership or copyright details of the document is occurring.

Please do a proper investigation and be sure of what you are doing before you take action on somebody else’s work they’ve spent their time working on 2A00:23A8:41D8:A000:6807:D546:4368:EAFE 13:37, 13 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, you're writing on a talk page that only I am reading.

If you own the album art that's fine, once you provide evidence of that the image will either be kept, or restored if it was deleted. Commons generally errs on the side of caution with potentially copyrighted works like album covers, because fans often upload them without permission. --Lord Belbury (talk) 13:43, 13 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

You are 100% right. He's incapable of doing proper research and seems like he ends up wrong flagging content more often than not. He's an absolute waste of time and Wikipedia should ban people like him who waste our time. It's very irritating that we have to wait for days and weeks to undo his stupidity. 2401:4900:1C0E:14A8:C038:B870:5793:BE17 23:46, 24 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

A barnstar for you!

	The Copyright Watcher Barnstar
	Copyright story of my photos. I think we should talk from here, about my self-composed pictures Linhly080811 (talk) 02:41, 16 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Linhly080811: Historical images and photos you've taken yourself are fine - although File:Tranh vẽ về chiến tranh (thời kì Ukiyo-e).jpg was a watermarked version of the existing File:Battle of Weihaiwei (land).jpg file on Commons, so I've marked it as a duplicate. It would help to know where you took the image for File:Ukiyo-e War.jpg from, so that we can identify the artist and maybe the title of the work.

The main thing is not to upload images which are still in copyright, like comic book covers, or other people's photos. --Lord Belbury (talk) 08:53, 16 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

But the rest of the images, the copyright is mine, and belongs to the Vietnamese Internet community. I hope you understand this Linhly080811 (talk) 10:45, 16 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Linhly080811: Some of your uploads were comic book covers. Neither you nor the Vietnamese internet community owns the copyright to that artwork. --Lord Belbury (talk) 18:00, 17 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Deleted pics named Simran Choudhary

I'm the photographer of all the pics that are uploaded on the name of Simran Choudhary and it's utterly rubbish that you deleted them on Copyright grounds. I have the original pics to claim my ownership over them. How dare you. Kilaruness (talk) 22:35, 24 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Kilaruness: Hello! I flagged one photo as what looked like a clear copyright violation because it's her current Twitter user image, and started a discussion about the other five at Commons:Deletion requests/Files uploaded by Kilaruness. If you wish to join that discussion, or go through COM:VRT to confirm that you are the photographer, please do so. Lord Belbury (talk) 22:38, 24 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

This is MY OWN WORK. I own that picture. I clicked it. Kilaruness (talk) 22:43, 24 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Just check her Instagram Verified profile that has this picture with me tagged in it. Kilaruness (talk) 22:44, 24 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Kilaruness: That's great, Commons now just needs confirmation that the user called Kilaruness on here is the same person as Kilaruness the photographer. Click through COM:VRT for information about how to do that. And be thankful as a professional photographer that Commons is double-checking people's uploads to make sure they aren't breaking the photographer's copyright! Lord Belbury (talk) 22:48, 24 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

What rubbish, why did you have to delete the picture in the first place and now it shows a backlog of 36 days to approve my request. This is utterly ridiculous. Had you done the property research you'd have found on her Instagram itself that the picture you deleted belongs to me. And no I'm not gonna be thankful for what you did to my picture which was genuinely clicked by me. You delete a picture that I rightfully own and then expect me to be thankful about it? Kilaruness (talk) 22:58, 24 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

It is utterly disappointing and disgusting to see how someone like you who is not capable of doing proper research has been given the rights to alter Wikipedia. The pictures I uploaded of Simran Choudhary are entirely my own creation. I CLICKED THOSE PICTURES. How dare you say I am involved in Copyright violation. Restore those pictures immediately. Kilaruness (talk) 22:39, 24 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Kilaruness: The other five images have not been deleted, a discussion is open and you are welcome to join it. This is part of the proper research into whether or not Commons should host a file. Lord Belbury (talk) 22:45, 24 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

What rubbish, why did you have to delete the picture in the first place and now it shows a backlog of 36 days to approve my request. This is utterly ridiculous. Had you done the property research you'd have found on her Instagram itself that the picture you deleted belongs to me. And no I'm not gonna be thankful for what you did to my picture which was genuinely clicked by me. You delete a picture that I rightfully own and then expect me to be thankful about it? I've sent the release mail, approve my request NOW. Kilaruness (talk) 22:59, 24 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Kilaruness: I'm flagging images here to protect the copyright of professional photographers like yourself, many of which turn out to be fans taking photos from social media and failing to credit the photographer, resulting in that work being reused at face value for free by the press. I didn't notice a watermark on the user image that has been deleted, and professional photographers usually upload their work under their full name (so that when the press reprint the image, they get clear credit). I do apologise for getting it wrong on that one.

Afraid I don't have any connection to the approval process, I'm just a user who flags images for others to discuss or assess. (The single deleted image was deleted by an admin who saw my flag and agreed with it, it was not deleted by me alone.) Lord Belbury (talk) 23:07, 24 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Well the admin deleted it after he/she saw your wrong flag. Your research is so dumb and stupid that the Twitter image you mentioned was a cropped one and the one I uploaded here is a full picture. Wonder how can someone convert a cropped picture into a full picture. This is common sense. Funny how common sense is short in stock on Wiki Commons. None of the pictures I've uploaded have my Watermark because I didn't want my name to be visible on HER Wiki page. Her page is not to endorse my photography. And one tip in life, never do something that you cannot undo. Your apology means nothing. Your incomplete and improper research has wasted a lot of my time. No thanks.

Image Uploading

Hello Lord Belbury, I understand there are copyrights on images but I'm only using them on my sandbox and I'm the only to see it. So can I still use them ?

--Ragnarok861 (talk) 10:06, 11 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Ragnarok861: I'm afraid not, no, because by uploading them to Commons you're making them public. Anyone searching Commons (or, in the future, Google Images) for "benedict cumberbatch portrait" will be served this photo and falsely informed that it was taken by Ragnarok861 who is happy for it to be used commercially at no cost: they might add it to Cumberbatch's Wikipedia page as a great infobox photo, or print it in a book. In reality it's a photo by Larry Busacca who would expect to be credited and paid if someone wanted to use his work, and who has not allowed its use on Wikipedia. --Lord Belbury (talk) 10:09, 11 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, no problem I will let it be deleted and erase it on my sandbox. Ragnarok861 (talk) 10:14, 11 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Lord Belbury. I uploaded an a picture of Pepe the Frog from Reddit and a picture of Elon Musk with his soon from this tweet : https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1357991946082418690?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1357991946082418690%7Ctwgr%5E%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fmadame.lefigaro.fr%2Fcelebrites%2Felon-musk-partage-une-rare-photo-de-son-fils-x-ae-a-xii-090221-194906 I don't know how to use Commons very well and I'm sorry if I did something wrong. How could I solve the problem about this pictures ? --Belisarius12 (talk) 20:16, 15 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Belisarius12: No problem, both of the images have been deleted now. You can take a look at Commons:Licensing to learn about what kinds of images are and aren't accepted by Commons. Lord Belbury (talk) 21:00, 15 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Diego Varagić

For what i believe, i accidentaly choosed that one, thinking about that this copy still exist on the web search. So by said, if you can make a decision to, what i say "speedy delete" that exact file, please don't make me uspet for what i believe, you should delete the Diego-varagic-1960 image, it's a real thing.— Preceding unsigned comment added by GingerAnimationz (talk • contribs)

@GingerAnimationz: Sorry, I don't understand exactly what you're saying here. Do you want File:Diego varagic 1960.jpg to be deleted?

If you don't want it to be deleted, where on barikada.com does it say that this photo is CC-Attribution licenced? --Lord Belbury (talk) 20:42, 17 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, the old Barikada website actually mentioned the Diego's biography, for were he and why. So I bet they've deleted the whole biography of him obviously. So I went to archive.org to archive it, and found the exact photo of the singer Diego Varagić (from what I believed, I right clicked the file that was blank, and opened the browser that mentioned it, just as how it had a good resolution and stuff) And note that mistakenly said you about you gonna speedy delete that Diego varagic 1960 image, I was wanna saying that you can delete that same image (that is in fact it's written in Numbers, while the letter A is in it) that I upload it, which I believe it matches the same image, so that's all! Hope you understand GingerAnimationz (talk) 21:28, 17 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@GingerAnimationz: Sorry, I still can't understand what you're saying. I didn't mark the file for speedy deletion, I marked it for lacking evidence of permission. It still lacks that evidence, and someone else has marked it the same way again. Please provide evidence that barikada.com released this photo under a CC-Attribution licence. Thanks. --Lord Belbury (talk) 07:12, 18 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

no, I just marked it as my own work, so I did changed it, not to be bullied by some people who should see the evidence right now! GingerAnimationz (talk) 08:44, 18 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@GingerAnimationz: Unless you personally took this photo 60 years ago, you must show that the photographer released it under a CC-Attribution licence. --Lord Belbury (talk) 08:46, 18 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@GingerAnimationz: Okay. That website does not claim that the photo is CC-Attribution, so unless you are claiming to be the photographer or have some other proof that the photographer released it as CC-Attribution or similar, the image will be deleted from Commons. --Lord Belbury (talk) 09:44, 18 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Filipino logos

hi! it seems some might be legit. i spot checked File:Bohol Police Department.png. google led me to https://pro7.pnp.gov.ph/bohol-provincial-police-office/ . :/ RZuo (talk) 19:15, 7 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@RZuo: Could well be, although the website header uses the other version of the image, and from the file URLs was uploaded more recently. I was operating under Wikipedia's "presumption in ambiguous cases should be to revert" for block evasion, that it's not a good use of volunteer time to scrupulously research and judge each of a hundred uploads when a user was evading a block, has uploaded subtly misleading files in the past, and didn't provide any sources. --Lord Belbury (talk) 07:26, 8 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

i have no energy or knowledge to verify filipino stuff either. however, i think, maybe the user was trying to contribute, but s/he's not doing it right, which could be due to language barrier etc. i spot checked another File:Lapu Lapu City Police Department.png and the new logo is also legit https://pro7.pnp.gov.ph/lapu-lapu-city-police-office/ . in this and the aforementioned cases the website banner is not updated, but their constantly updated facebook pages have changed the logos. RZuo (talk) 08:00, 8 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@RZuo: Fair comment. So what course do you recommend taking if I notice this user uploading another hundred maps and badges next week? --Lord Belbury (talk) 11:21, 8 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

i think best we can do is write to him/her first, asking him/her to provide urls from which s/he got the files. if s/he cant speak english, maybe we could try finding a tagalog speaker and talk to him/her. if s/he doesnt respond, then we should just continue nuking the uploads until s/he stops, i guess. RZuo (talk) 14:21, 8 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

i'm willing to spot check some files next time. RZuo (talk) 14:30, 8 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Will let you know. I'll also tag SeanJ 2007 (talk · contribs) into this conversation in case they have any input on it: they were aware of the sock user before I was, and are active on the Tagalog Wikipedia project. --Lord Belbury (talk) 14:42, 8 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@SeanJ 2007: The https://pro7.pnp.gov.ph/bohol-provincial-police-office/ link at the top (which seems to be offline today) did include both the blue and brown shield logos, with only minor differences in colouring from the Commons uploads.

Hello, I have the right to host these files Content and copyright Rosoboronexport. Logvlad9 (talk) 09:12, 24 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Logvlad9: Thanks, I'll remove the templates and work out what licence that should be filed under. --Lord Belbury (talk) 09:25, 24 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Lord Belbury: You deleted one video from rosoboronexport, which was taken from their youtube channel. Logvlad9 (talk) 09:34, 24 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Logvlad9: I checked the YouTube source on that one and it was explicitly uploaded under the YouTube Standard Licence there. YouTube users have the option to upload as CC-Attribution, but Rosoboronexport chose not to do that. If you can show that it falls under the website licence, you can request undeletion at COM:UNDEL.

I've started a discussion at Commons:Village_pump/Copyright#roe.ru_licence to find out what licence these media should be uploaded as, since Rosoboronexport aren't explicitly saying that they are CC-Attribution. --Lord Belbury (talk) 09:39, 24 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Lord Belbury: "All materials of the official website of Rosoboronexport can be reproduced in any media, on Internet servers or on any other media without any restrictions on the volume and timing of publication, indicating the source." - nothing is said about YouTube, but since full permission is given to publish their materials from the site, it is quite logical that they will not be against it. In addition, the video has their emblem with the inscription. Logvlad9 (talk) 09:46, 24 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Logvlad9: It does seem likely, but it depends whether the video also appears on their "official website" or not. If it's on the channel but not the website, they may have drawn that distinction very deliberately, perhaps if the video used some sections of footage that they didn't own the full copyright to. You can raise this in the undeletion request. --Lord Belbury (talk) 09:49, 24 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Lord Belbury: I went to the description on their YouTube channel. JSC Rosoboronexport is listed there, the same is on their website. They don't host videos on their site at all. But on the YouTube channel, all their videos are published with their logo and the inscription rosoboronexport. Logvlad9 (talk) 09:59, 24 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Logvlad9: Sounds like it depends whether "materials of the official website of Rosoboronexport can be reproduced in any media" (which I appreciate is only a machine translation of the original text!) could be said to apply to their YouTube channel or any other social media output. If that's an accurate translation, I would assume not. --Lord Belbury (talk) 10:04, 24 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Lord Belbury: I emailed them with this question. Logvlad9 (talk) 10:13, 24 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Lord Belbury: They have a video on the official website. And these videos link to their YouTube channel. If they publish videos from their YouTube channel on their website, and not separately. So the site is directly connected to the YouTube channel. Logvlad9 (talk) 11:45, 24 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Logvlad9: Okay, thanks for looking into it. Raise that at COM:UNDEL and an admin will consider it. --Lord Belbury (talk) 11:47, 24 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Richiesta di mantenimento dell'immagine "Cugino di Cristoforo Colombo".png

Salve, dal mio account Wikipedia ho saputo che è stato cancellato un file con questa dicitura: "‎Immagine scherzo inutilizzata, fuori da ‎‎COM:SCOPE‎‎. Sfondo presumibilmente di pubblico dominio, immagine di occhiali da sole sovrapposta presumibilmente no." In realtà lo scopo era (Visto che oltre a Wikipedia uso anche la nonciclopedia) usarla in una pagina di, appunto, nonciclopedia. Poi per quanto riguarda gli occhiali, sono stati presi da paint 3d sotto licenza di pubblico dominio. Grazie Cinescienza (talk) 07:58, 26 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Cinescienza: Sorry, I don't know what you mean by "nonciclopedia". If you think the image should not be deleted, reply at Commons:Deletion_requests/File:Centomilcento.png. --Lord Belbury (talk) 11:48, 26 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

How to add an image, photo cover, etc. from foreign Wikipedias to the article? Lentner05 (talk) 16:46, 28 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Lentner05: Sorry, I don't know what article you're talking about, and am not familiar with all Wikipedia projects. Ask at your local Wikipedia's help page. Lord Belbury (talk) 16:58, 28 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Questions about photo deletions

I am lost as to the rules of cover photo uploading. I understand that I can't just upload the covers I find on google, but the last three I've uploaded (Schiop, Soldații/ Goldiș / Bocai, Filologii) are all photos I made mysel of books I own - it's clearly visibile from their details, one can see the creases on the covers. Are these unacceptable as well? Previous personal photographs of books I own were kept on the site, so I don't know why these were marked for copyright violation? I own the images. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Aelpenor (talk • contribs) 08:43, 29 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Aelpenor: If a book cover includes copyrighted artwork, someone taking a photo of that artwork doesn't transfer the copyright to them. If I want to publish a book myself, I can't just take a photo of another book to use as its cover art. See Commons:Derivative works. Covers that are purely text are too simple to copyright, but anything with creative artistic elements could be challenged. Lord Belbury (talk) 08:58, 29 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Lord Belbury: So if I'm writing articles on contemporary literature, there is basically no chance for me to upload book covers without them being taken down. But I will respect the rule, thank you for the swift reply, I'll refrain from uploading any covers. Aelpenor (talk) 09:18, 29 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Aelpenor: You can't upload modern book covers to Commons, but you may be able to upload them to your local Wikipedia project under "fair use", if it allows it. (The English Wikipedia project permits this under https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Non-free_content, allowing its articles about modern books and films to be illustrated.) --Lord Belbury (talk) 09:23, 29 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Cthulhu

Hi, I noticed that you nominated two images I uploaded for deletion.

https://commons.m.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Todos_teman_al_todopoderoso_Cthulhu.jpg

https://commons.m.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Sailor_Moon_fighting_against_Cthulhu.jpg

I understand that they are of low quality and that they do not serve very well to represent the subject of artificial intelligence, but I think they deserve to continue in Commons as two images that represent the character Cthulhu Strange Anomaly (talk) 23:30, 30 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Strange Anomaly: I've put my thoughts at Commons:Deletion requests/Files in Category:Craiyon, where I was writing about a lot of unused Craiyon images on Commons rather than just these two of Cthulhu. Would be useful to get your input there if you have some thoughts on how these images are useful and should be kept. Lord Belbury (talk) 09:06, 31 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Craiyon images

Some dozen or so of these images were specifically created as illustrations for the July 31 Signpost, which is due to publish in three hours. As such, I am currently editing the issue and preparing it for publication, and do not have the time to properly articulate myself here. The ones I have made are not being put into file categories for their subjects (i.e. "Dalmatian bench" is not in any categories for benches or Dalmatians). I will respond to the nomination in more detail later, but for the time being, I can assure you that many of these are directly relevant to a project. JPxG (talk) 19:36, 31 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@JPxG: From your talk page, it looks like only three of them were your uploads, and those three aren't in use on any Signpost drafts? I didn't nominate images any that were in use on any project. --Lord Belbury (talk) 19:49, 31 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, I don't know, I just got the notification when I was popping in to check something. I will have to take a closer look later. JPxG (talk) 21:06, 31 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Ok thanks

Will my account be blocked after files are deleted? Crenshaw1912 (talk) 10:29, 3 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Crenshaw1912: No, you're okay, Commons only blocks people if they carry on doing something after they were asked to stop. If you have questions about copyright of future uploads you can ask them at Commons:Village pump/Copyright, but basically if you've found an image online, then the site you're taking it from has to very clearly say that the image has been released as public domain (or some similar licence), you can't just upload pictures from newspapers here. --Lord Belbury (talk) 10:35, 3 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

File:Sasa_Mirkovic_u_2021.jpeg

Hello, please undelete this image, Sasa_Mirkovic_u_2021.jpeg, it is not copyright. If you check the email of wikipedia commons you will see that the image is uploaded in march of 2021. Since that news article is after in that year, it can only mean that the image was taken from wikipedia. The images in its first, is the owners sole ownership, taken from private archive, which was also confirmed in the email for copyright commons.

Please do not go arround and verify something that is not correct, just to do something in a day. Please be thorough, because this errors create a lot of problems for this kind of edits.. Regards,

@Spawnjfk: Thanks for your response. You uploaded the image in October 2021, and the news article image is from March and at a higher resolution.

This media was probably deleted.

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

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

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

EugeneZelenko (talk) 14:21, 29 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@EugeneZelenko: Not sure what you're asking for here. It's a crop of a photo that the original uploader claims to be their own picture, presumably taken from a seat in the audience at a performance. --Lord Belbury (talk) 14:25, 29 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I tagged both original and cropped version. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 14:29, 29 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@EugeneZelenko: And what do you want me to do? --Lord Belbury (talk) 14:45, 29 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

This is how deletion widget works. By the way, in future you could also try to match user name and credits in EXIF before making derivative works. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 14:48, 29 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@EugeneZelenko: Will do, I didn't think to look there, as the photograph seemed quite a mundane one. Out of interest, is EXIF generally considered sufficient for tagging no-permission? I'd usually put that kind of file up for a formal deletion discussion, on the grounds that if it was just tagged no-permission a closing admin might not realise what I was getting at and close it as keep based on the summary box claiming own work. --Lord Belbury (talk) 15:02, 29 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Two other uploads on this user were album covers. User name and credit in EXIF didn't correlate in this photo. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 15:04, 29 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@EugeneZelenko: A deletion verdict depending on other uploads seems like more reason to use a formal deletion discussion, not less! I didn't think admins were required to do that much research to close an expired no-permission, but I'm not an admin so don't fully understand the process. --Lord Belbury (talk) 15:08, 29 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Crungus Images 3x3 uploaded by me

Dear Lord Belburry,

I appreciate it that you keep an eye on the uploads and so you nominated my images File:Crungus.jpg, File:Chrungus.jpg, File:Krungus.jpg, File:Grungus.jpg and File:Qrungus.jpg to be deleted because it should be Commons:Derivative works. I can assure you, it is not! I need those images to make a point inside my article draft https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Crungus So please could you revert your decision? Thanks a lot!

IOOI (talk) 16:14, 30 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@IOOI: Hi there. The problem is just that we don't know where you got the images from! You only say "AI generated image", which isn't specific enough: we need to be able to check that the software you used doesn't have a restrictive licence about reusing its output. If you update the file description to include the software, you can remove the {{Dw no source since}} templates. --Lord Belbury (talk) 16:18, 30 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Lord Belbury would it be enough if I mention the app that imagery was created with https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.womboai.wombodream&hl=en&gl=US enough? I can't find any legal stuff on their website https://www.wombo.art/

IOOI (talk) 03:09, 1 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@IOOI: Yes, that's all it needs. Other users can decide whether the content counts as public domain or not. --Lord Belbury (talk) 09:27, 1 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Dear @Lord Belbury,

you've tagged another image as derivative work, because this image contains multiple images at once. I can assure you, that the composite image was not derived but created as it is at once, you can try this on your own, just download https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.womboai.wombodream&hl=en&gl=US or https://apps.apple.com/de/app/dream-by-wombo-ai-art-tool/id1586366816 and try yourself, just select the "Meme"-art-style for this type of multiple image and generate your own images without "deriving" work. Could you please be so kind and retract your deletion request? Thank you very much, IOOI (talk) 21:00, 27 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@IOOI: Hi again, I didn't make the link to this earlier conversation, I was just reading the article over at Wikipedia, wondered where the image was taken from and saw that the Commons page failed to specify, so flagged it up.

I see now that you tried to add a source, but in a way that didn't show up on the page in any way (the "other fields" option doesn't exist, and the {{Image generation}} template isn't meant to be used like that). I'll fix that up. --Belbury (talk) 12:58, 28 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Bement Crest

Hi there - you marked an upload of a school crest (File:Bement School Crest.png) for deletion as copyright violation. My question is how do other schools have theirs on their pages? Umass Amherst has their seal loaded up and below it says fair use. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/University_of_Massachusetts_Amherst#/media/File:University_of_Massachusetts_Amherst_seal.svg I'm new to this. Do I just have the school email permission? Thanks Ktmacc2 (talk) 20:28, 13 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Ktmacc2: Fair use is absolutely the key. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:University_of_Massachusetts_Amherst_seal.svg is a file hosted on Wikipedia itself, and Wikipedia has a fair use policy. Over here at Wikimedia Commons we don't allow fair use uploads (see COM:FAIRUSE for an explanation why).

So you can upload it to Wikipedia as fair use. Just go to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:File_Upload_Wizard. --Lord Belbury (talk) 20:31, 13 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Deanston OS map extract

Hi Belbury

You flagged up that you thought the Licence attribution on my use of an OS map extract from the NLS was not correct.

I replied as follows:

"This is part of an Ordnance Survey map from circa 1900, and as such it is in the Public Domain, as long out of Copyright. However it is extracted from the National Library of Scotland website, who allow reuse of material under the CC-BY licence, as long as an acknowledgement is made of the source. As such, I believe I could have put the image up simply as 'Public Domain', but as a courtesy to the NLS source it seems more correct to acknowledge them, which I have. If someone thinks the CC-BY-4.0 licence is wrong, perhaps they would like to change it? Thanks ArchaicW (talk) 17:43, 5 January 2023 (UTC)"

But I've not heard back from you to see if you agree with this wording?

Seems to me that either the CC-BY licence or Public Domain could be correct? NLS allow reuse of their marvellous online collection of maps, as long as acknowledgment is made, but if you put it up as 'Public Domain', then a source attribution is maybe not correct!

Would be good to hear fom you, as I don't want to go ahead and use the map without being sure that the Licence attribution is OK. Thanks ArchaicW (talk) 17:25, 7 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@ArchaicW: Hello, afraid I didn't see your reply, the image wasn't on my watchlist. If the National Library of Scotland says it's CC-BY then that sounds fine, feel free to remove the problem template. Maybe add a link to the relevant page of their website in the Example text field of the Information template to make it clear. --Belbury (talk) 18:14, 7 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks very much, Belbury ArchaicW (talk) 15:29, 8 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@ArchaicW: No problem. And I don't know why that came out as Example text, I meant "permission="... --Belbury (talk) 15:31, 8 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Belbury Thanks, I've added a link to the NLS website. I've also extended a sentence to make it clearer that the letters are added by me, the uploader, and not by the NLS. I'd quite like to remove the 'Copyright' template - but I can't see how to do it! As always, it seems with Wikipedia, there are pages and pages of "Help", but I can never find the right bit! Is it possible you could do it, or tell me what to do? I'd be very grateful. Best wishes ArchaicW (talk) 16:44, 8 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@ArchaicW: All done! Templates are the sections of the page between double curly braces, in this case it was just a matter of removing the {{Wrong licence}} from the top of the file page. Belbury (talk) 16:52, 8 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Question

Thanks for tagging my uploads for WP:CSD. Could you check whether any of my other uploads need deletion (I've tagged G7 for one of the files) due to copyvios?

File:RNC de Boumort.jpg

Recently you advised me about some files may be deleted (maps derivate from the Catalan ICGC repository, under CC BY 4.0 license).

It was true that I didn’t mention the origin of the map (assuming that it was under CC BY 4.0 license) and, following the advice, I added the information about “Permission (Reusing the file)”, from where the base map was taken, and the webpage that says we are free to reuse these works under CC BY 4.0.

Also I posted a note, in my discussion, explaining my steps for arrange the mistake. Then, I was confident that I did the right things and the files may not be deleted. But finally I seen that these files are deleted by User: Krd (don't care about the explanations I gave).

In my upload page I uploaded another maps, similar to the ones deleted, writing now the attribution of the base map from the beginning. I use them in the catalan Wikipedia to explain how different layers of natural protected areas can overlap between them. In order to no repeat the mistakes that I did it, the question is:

Can I upload again files like the deleted ones if I put the attribution that way?
Must be they deleted too?
Why the other files were deleted if I added the attribution of the previous work?

Thank you in advace for your attention. Gerarcalis (talk) 14:34, 27 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Gerarcalis: Hello. Sorry to say I can't see the permission statements on the deleted files, so I can't advise on whether they were correctly stated or not, or what the problem might have been. I'd suggest taking it up with the admin who deleted them on the 13th. Belbury (talk) 14:53, 27 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for the answer, the permision are exactly the same that now I put en the other maps, currently available in my upload page: for example File:Rnc cerdanya urgell cadi.jpg, like this:

|permission=Map derived from the topographical map of Catalonia 1:25,000 from l’ (ICGC), under license CC BY 4.0”. https://www.icgc.cat/en/The-ICGC/Public-Information/Transparency/Re-use-of-the-information |Institut Cartogràfic i Geològic de Catalunya

It's enough with this attribution to avoid future deletions? Gerarcalis (talk) 15:02, 27 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Gerarcalis: Looks okay to me. But if the other images were deleted, there may be a problem with it, I'd check with the admin. --Belbury (talk) 15:13, 27 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, I don't care too much about the old ones, if I can continue doing these little maps (doing the attribution correctly) Gerarcalis (talk) 15:59, 27 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Source on own image of TV show?

Greetings! Do I have to set the source to the file that I took on the TV by myself? For example, if I turn on an episode of South Park on Comedy Central, pause it and take a picture of the scene on the TV with my mobile phone, should I add the source or I can select the "Own work" option? – Croatia 925 ^razgovor ^– 15:22, 21 March 2023 (CET)

@Croatia 925: You should always specify the source. In the case of a photo of a TV show it would presumably have to be deleted as a copyright violation, though. --Belbury (talk) 14:26, 21 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, how usefull you think is it, to marking a file twice as copyright infrigement? Lukas Beck (talk) 15:12, 31 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@L. Beck: Hi. Quite useful, I think? You marked it as lacking essential source material, giving the uploader a seven day grace period to identify the copyright holder and confirm that they had released it under the CC-Attribution licence that's being claimed. I could see it was a Coldplay album cover and marked it as an obvious copyright violation, so that it could instead be deleted immediately.

Wrong deletion

Dear Belbury!

He deleted the old logos of Misi YT Music and Misi YT Logo Evolution without prior notice, thereby undermining the past of Mihály Tirpák and its predecessor, the Misi YT channel family. Please take this into consideration because you do not know the channel's family history.

I apologize for the copyright violations

Hi! I'm new to Wikipedia. I am not professional or skilled and I don't know much. I am still learning how to use wikis. Recently, I got some alerts about some copyright violations which I accidently committed. I did not commit any of these copyright violations intentionally. I'm still new and I didn't know how to use Wikipedia commons properly. I have since learned and tried to fix most of the copyright violations which I accidently committed. I hope you will pardon me for my mistakes and unprofessionalism. Asaduzzaman Khan Shahriar (talk) 16:54, 23 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Asaduzzaman Khan Shahriar: Mistakes are understandable! The main problem here is not that you failed to specify which websites you downloaded the pictures from, it's that these images are copyrighted. You can't upload them to Commons and state that they are CC-Attribution licenced, when the websites have not licenced them in this way. Belbury (talk) 07:49, 24 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for uploading File:Beetle pitfall trap with stones.png. I notice that the file page either doesn't contain enough information about the license or it contains contradictory information about the license, so the copyright status is unclear.

If you created this file yourself, then you must provide a valid copyright tag. For example, you can tag it with {{self|GFDL|cc-by-sa-all}} to release it under the multi-license GFDL plus Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike All-version license or you can tag it with {{PD-self}} to release it into the public domain. (See Commons:Copyright tags for the full list of license tags that you can use.)

If you did not create the file yourself or if it is a derivative of another work that is possibly subject to copyright protection, then you must specify where you found it (e.g. usually a link to the web page where you got it), you must provide proof that it has a license that is acceptable for Commons (e.g. usually a link to the terms of use for content from that page), and you must add an appropriate license tag. If you did not create the file yourself and the specific source and license information is not available on the web, you must obtain permission through the VRT system and follow the procedure described there.

Note that any unsourced or improperly licensed files will be deleted one week after they have been marked as lacking proper information, as described in criteria for deletion. If you have uploaded other files, please confirm that you have provided the proper information for those files, too. If you have any questions about licenses please ask at Commons:Village pump/Copyright or see our help pages. Thank you.

Fritz Feigl and Johanna Döbereiner

Hello, I've recently uploaded headshots for Fritz Feigl and Johanna Döbereiner that I found at https://www.pas.va/en/academicians/deceased/feigl.html and https://www.pas.va/en/academicians/deceased/doebereiner.html. You've tagged these two images with a "This media file is missing evidence of permission" tag. If you check those two links and scroll to the very bottom of the page, you can see that they are licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International License. I've tried to make this clear in the Fritz Feigl talk page, but I guess that isn't the right place to put that. Is this the right place to "provide evidence of permission by either providing a link to a site with an explicit release under a free license" or should I direct this statement elsewhere?

Hi Belbury! I am new here and try to make close study of Wikipedia's rules. If i understand correct i must ask special letter-promission from the owner for all files? Thanks in advance for help! I've got this letter from you:

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

Hi Belbury! Hope you are doing well. I just made some contributions adding images primarily regarding football in Pakistan, as those articles were very incomplete, and I have uploaded plenty of images in public domain and youtube I found. It has costed me a good deal to find them, and I want the images to remain here, as I believe they are a very good addition in the wikipedia articles.

You marked me as a screenshot of a screenshot an image that I uploaded as a test asking an artist if I could use a drawing of him in a wikipedia article

File:Permiso de zala77s para poner foto de Vegeta en Wikipedia.png This is not a screenshot of a screenshot.It is a screenshot of my instagram chat asking an artist for permission to upload his drawing to wikipedia

If you don't know Spanish, you shouldn't mark things as if they have copyright when they don't, nor do you understand the context of the chat or the photo, you didn't understand the title of the photo or the description that I put on the photo explaining everything, nor did you understand it. to talk to the artist in the chat and mark it as "screenshot of another screenshot

I asked librarians in Spanish using that commons image if with the permission of the artist I can upload that image that appears in the screenshot to the Vegeta article in Spanish Wikipedia, I am waiting for their response GokuJuan (talk) 14:47, 28 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Permission to use you Emoji representation of the Wong-Baker scale at my facility?

Hello, and Good Morning,

I very much like your rendition of the scale over the traditional faces. Would I be able to use your Emoji representation on a introductory form in my medical facility? I unfortunately cannot give credit on the form since it will be presented to patients and distributed in the facility, but I obviously would NOT be taking credit for it either as the drawing is not my work. If this is not okay with you, I understand and please let me know. I am not opposed to creating a design myself but I rather do like your rendition. 76.75.16.80 18:04, 25 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

PierreCollet-1966-Italie.png

Hello Belbury,

Hope you have a nice day. As I wrote about this file, I ony use Photoshop and its filters to correct or modify the pictures. I never use an A.I. application.

Best regards. Tisourcier (talk) 17:11, 21 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Tisourcier: Thank you for clarifying! I was in two minds about the Collet photo and couldn't find the exact frame to compare it to, but after seeing File:YvesMourousi-Toulouse-1983.png (and knowing that AI often has some difficulty with eyeglasses) I assumed you must have used some kind of AI that had taken a low resolution source and increased both image size and visible detail.

I'm not too familiar with Photoshop's available filters - is it possible that you've used the AI "neural filter" or anything like that, on these images, when increasing their resolution? Belbury (talk) 19:26, 21 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Tous mes voeux pour cette nouvelle année !

RE: File:Playa Popular y Rambla, Mar del Plata, 1969.jpg

Hi, Belbury. I don't know what kind of authorization I'm supposed to send via OTRS. Those pictures are from my personal archive, since they belong to my family, as well as the people who appear in them and who shot the camera. They are a family heirloom, which, to the extent they fall within the scope of Commons, I am gradually uploading. Regards, Banfield - Amenazas aquí 20:09, 15 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Banfield: Ah! If they're family that sounds fine, it was just that you'd described them as "Unknown author". I read that as meaning you'd acquired the photos perhaps second-hand and didn't know who took them, but were uploading them to illustrate the location. I'll revert the permission notices, but feel free to update the descriptions. Belbury (talk) 20:20, 15 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Tomahawks and War bonnets

Hi. Why did you cancel two of my edits? I will inform you beforehand that I am the author of the fundamental articles "Crown of Feathers" (that is, warbonnet) and "Tomahawk" in the Russian-language Wikipedia. That's why I know what I'm doing. In addition, it was I who put things in order (although I was sometimes interrupted) on Wikimedia Commons on the topic of crafts and household items of North American Indians (I'm not talking about anything else). Now about these two pictures. That axe is not a tomahawk from any side. This is a modern product that modern blacksmiths produce by the thousands. If you put them on Wikimedia Commons, they will completely overwhelm it. Moreover, they will fill up with their number of images of real Indian tomahawks, of which there are not so many. The author himself called his product at once a francisca, a tomahawk, a throwing axe, and a battle axe. But in reality it's just a souvenir item. At best, a tourist axe. That is, it has nothing to do with Indian tomahawks. About the headdress on a European girl with tattooed legs and lace panties. Will you not claim that this is an Indian chief, an honored warrior, or just a modern Indian? So the hat on her head is not an Indian honorary regalia, but a Chinese mass souvenir. In China and Thailand, thousands of them are produced and sold in any country. They are easily recognizable by the stripe of crosses above the forehead and by the feathers from a wide variety of local birds available to Asian producers. So think about whether you did the right thing… Сергей 6662 (talk) 21:14, 16 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Your deletion nomination of motion blur photos

You nominated some photos from the Category:Intentional camera movement for deletion but you limited the files for deletion to the photos of User:XRay. Can you explain why you are nominating all photos of one photographer on one topic for deletion but no photos of other photographers on the same topic? GPSLeo (talk) 16:15, 10 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@GPSLeo: Easily! I didn't start from that category.

I was looking through recent uploads, saw what seemed like an unusably blurred photo in there and checked the users uploads. It looked like a minority of their recent uploads had such camera movement (some alongside entirely unblurred photos of the same subject), and the older ones didn't, so I just flagged those ones for deletion. Belbury (talk) 16:23, 10 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

If you checked for the users uploads you also might have seen that he is one of the most active photographers on Commons and within the ones with the most featured pictures. Why did you not ask the user on the talk page before starting a deletion request? Deletion requests for scope reasons within the most active users without prior discussion are very uncommon. GPSLeo (talk) 16:29, 10 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I hadn't encountered that etiquette on Commons before, I'll bear it in mind. Belbury (talk) 16:45, 10 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, I see you did not have any bad intentions. Do you want to keep your deletion request? If not you can just write that you want to withdraw the request on the request page. GPSLeo (talk) 16:21, 11 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You really should have started with the assumption that I didn't have any bad intentions. I want to keep the request open, thanks. Belbury (talk) 16:35, 11 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'm really confused about the deletion of images. Although the images weren't mine, but I altered them and made modifications. Website "Know Your Meme" is not accessible in my own country and I originally downloaded the picture from [6], which itself is not the owner. The real owner is Ernest Khalimov (GigaChad) and you can find millions of GigaChad images on internet. Please can you undelete my images. Kazama16 (talk) 08:54, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

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

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

Notification about possible deletion

Some contents have been listed at Commons:Deletion requests so that the community can discuss whether they should be kept or not. We would appreciate it if you could go to voice your opinion about this at their entry.

If you created these pages, please note that the fact that they have been proposed for deletion does not necessarily mean that we do not value your kind contribution. It simply means that one person believes that there is some specific problem with them, such as a copyright issue. Please see Commons:But it's my own work! for a guide on how to address these issues.

Please remember to respond to and – if appropriate – contradict the arguments supporting deletion. Arguments which focus on the nominator will not affect the result of the nomination. Thank you!

Image permissions

The following images that you tagged for lack of permission,

have their CC licenses listed on their host pages. The first has no restrictions and has been checked by the Flickr bot, and the second explicitly lists CC BY 2.5. Steve7c8 (talk) 05:59, 2 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Steve7c8: Thanks for adding a permission link on the first, I must have batched the second one up by mistake. Belbury (talk) 06:27, 2 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I also didn't realize that there is no Fair Use on Wikimedia Commons, so the rest I'll have to upload on the local English Wikipedia. Steve7c8 (talk) 20:06, 2 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
