[edit] July 7

[edit] File:Fabian_Ramirez_FARC.png

First marked the image as missing source, but found a possible source myself: http://www.state.gov/p/inl/narc/rewards/115344.htm. However, the US Government offer 2.5 Million US$ according to the english Wikipedia entry w:en:Fabián Ramírez, it is unlikely that this photo was taken by an US Government employee and is public domain according to {{PD-USGov}}.

[edit] File:Hauptwerk-schematic.jpg

This diagram includes a screenshot from copyrighted software. Jaksmata (talk) 20:46, 7 July 2009 (UTC)

Hi, Jaksmata.
Are you kidding ? This image seemed to be screenshot from PowerPoint® document, not the screenshot of copyrighted software. You must provide the evidence which show this image is copyrighted material.
My biggest fear is that you may be request to delete all organ images and articles other than your favorite organ (such like a Dodgers instruments or Alien calculator organ).--114.145.206.47 12:37, 9 July 2009 (UTC)
The image was taken from here. The software depicted in the diagram, as well as the image of the organ are copyrighted by Milan Digital Audio LLC (a.k.a Hauptwerk). Fair use claims are not valid in commons, neither are derivative works. It has nothing to do with what I like (I actually like Hauptwerk), but I will nominate any copyright violation for deletion. If you don't want a picture of your favorite organ deleted, take the picture yourself instead of plagiarizing someone else's picture and claiming it's your own work as Kaspencer has done. Jaksmata (talk) 13:39, 9 July 2009 (UTC)
Looks like a derivative. Eventually the "built-in" images might be replaced by free ones. --Túrelio (talk) 15:59, 9 July 2009 (UTC)

Of course, I'm creating new image to replace center screenshot.
BTW: I have no interest on pipe organs at all. But, lack of fairness on w:en:Category:Organs (music) cause many problems on other language version of Wikipedia, so I am dedicating my spare time to solve the problems.
Jaksmata, please create new image yourself, before request to delete other manufacturer's images. And, please try to correct articles with fairness before you request to delete other manufacturer's articles.
It may be desired attitude in Wikipedia, IMO. --114.145.206.47 16:34, 9 July 2009 (UTC)

@114.145.206.47, stop posting (alleged) problems from other projects (such as :en). They have nothing to do with this rfd.
If there is an obvious copyright problem with an image on Commons, it has to be requested for deletion (and be deleted) independent of whether a replacement is available or not. You are free to save this file to your computer and rebuild it exclusively using free images. --Túrelio (talk) 19:58, 9 July 2009 (UTC)

It looks like the original author has requested deletion both by "blanking out" the image, and by leaving an angry note on my w:en talk page. Jaksmata (talk) 23:05, 11 July 2009 (UTC)

You should act with more cooperative sense, before other users begin to angry. --114.145.183.187 02:33, 12 July 2009 (UTC)

[edit] User:Producer/MyTag

This license tag should be backed by an OTRS ticket. Additionally, the license tags should be subst'ed. --Eusebius (talk) 21:13, 7 July 2009 (UTC)


I do not understand why this should be deleted, I am the producer of these shows, and this tag was created by an administrator here when I started using it. Actions such as this make me doubt the rational and intentions of some. This issue was discussed with Tarawneh an Arab admin in Commons who knows the situation and the laws in the ME, please discuss this issue with him first. If this tag is deleted then I request each and every photo that carries this license to be deleted too. I am a professional producer, and have worked in this profession for over 35 years. I own the rights for these photos, and for them to have the license altered in any way, Commons cannot have them.--Producer (talk) 23:56, 7 July 2009 (UTC)
Any permissions have to be signed by me, that was established long time ago with Tarawneh!--Producer (talk) 23:56, 7 July 2009 (UTC)
Hi, it's not because there is a deletion request that "we want it deleted". It gives us a place to discuss the problems inherent to the template, make sure they are solved and archive the discussion in a public, centralized place (unlike the discussion you might have had with Tarawneh, for instance). The main problem is that your permission should be based on an OTRS permission ticket, for the foundation to register your permission in an "official" way (in the present situation, only Tarawneh is convinced that the copyright holder actually gave his permission). What you should do: send an e-mail to permissions-commons@wikimedia.org with a permission like this one, giving a list of the covered works and the list of the licences you want to use. Maybe the OTRS agent processing the ticket will ask you for elements showing that you actually are the copyright holder, but please remember that anything between you and the OTRS system remains strictly confidential. The OTRS agent will only issue a "ticket", which we will include to this template, saying "it's ok, we can confirm that the user is the copyright holder and he has given a formal authorization". The procedure is needed here because the works have been published already, and there are probably many of them. I hope you understand better why I nominated the template for "deletion" (which is not really what I meant). NB: The permission e-mail can be send in Arabic. --Eusebius (talk) 07:09, 8 July 2009 (UTC)
