This media file has been nominated for deletion since 4 July 2024. To discuss it, please visit the nomination page.
Do not remove this tag until the deletion nomination is closed. Reason for the nomination: I don't see how the CC license could be valid. While the file description gives the source of the data, that doesn't mean that the information in those sources becomes free to use.
The map is a close copy of that in Hayward's book, page vi (down to specific choices like the decision of which geographical features to include). Even though that map was modified with further information about the distribution of the individual languages from Ethnologue, Hayward's map itself remains copyrighted. Speaking of Ethnologue, https://www.ethnologue.com/pricing/ is very clear that the distribution maps are only available to paying subscribers, and https://www.ethnologue.com/general-terms-use/ (specifically points 2 and 3) further states that all the information on their site is copyrighted. In particular, reproduction of any content is prohibited (this includes, but is not limited to, their maps), and using any content from the site for commercial purposes requires their written consent. There is no indication that different rules applied when the file was uploaded. The copyright issue was first raised on the file talk page in 2009, about a year after the upload. The uploader/author did not reply to those concerns, even though they continued to work on the file until 2012 (and have remained active as an administrator on the German Wikipedia from 2008 until stepping down in 2016, and as a user on Commons until 2020). That is to say, I'm surprised they didn't respond to it. The same applies to the two derivative versions, File:Omotic languages sv.svg and File:Omotic languages mk.svg (a third one in English that is linked from the file description has apparently been deleted in the meantime). | |||
