removal of warning tags[edit]

@How, stop reverting warning tags. You may convert the speedy into a regular deletion-tag to allow for a discussion (as there is no need for a rush deletion); but the concerns seem to be justified. These images were uploaded to :de in the early times (2004), when people didn't look too much into copyright. The easiest way to solve the problem is to contact the original uploader and website owner directly, http://www.geistigenahrung.org/impressum.html, and to ask him for a formal permission. If he is not really the rights holder, he will likely say that. --Túrelio (talk) 07:54, 14 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I only move these files from german Wikipedia to here, not more! Thats why these files does not meet the criteria for speedy deletion, so I can remove your notice, look at the template! -- How (talk) 12:34, 14 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Did you even read my above comment and my comments on the image pages? --Túrelio (talk) 14:37, 14 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]


I've performed the rename as requested, but you should check the authorship. Is there a direct credit to "Hasan Balyuzi" for the original photo? As this name sounds identical to the books authors name, it seems unlikely that the author of a 1985-book shot a pre-1900-photo. --Túrelio (talk) 15:41, 14 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

File:Badi2.jpg has the same problem with your authorship-entry. --Túrelio (talk) 15:56, 14 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

As you seem to be interested in the Bahai topic, you might try to track down the real author of this photo. Somebody how took a photo in 1912 can still have lived longer than 1939, thereby making the PD-Old-claim invalid. It's a pressing issue, but would make the image safer. --Túrelio (talk) 16:15, 14 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

You also might also try to find out the real photographer of this important photo. A photo from 1957 with "unknown author" is hardly credible, and with a PD-old-license (possible 70 years after the death of the photographer) is ridiculous. --Túrelio (talk) 16:21, 14 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

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!

Thanks for uploading File:UN Persian Gulf2.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:UN Persian Gulf2.jpg]]) and the above demanded information in your request.

Hello How, the following content you uploaded violates one or more of our policies and therefore has been or will soon be deleted:

File:UN Persian Gulf2.jpg

The Wikimedia Commons (this website) only hosts media files with a realistic educational purpose and that can be used for any purpose, including:
  • use in any work, regardless of content
  • creation of derivative works
  • commercial use
  • free distribution

See Commons:Licensing for the copyright policy on Wikimedia Commons, and Commons:Image casebook for some specific examples. Some other Wikimedia projects have different licensing policies. For example, the English Wikipedia allows fair use of sounds and photographs. This is not the case on Wikimedia Commons; "fair use" materials are not acceptable here.

Please make sure that you only upload educational content you have created yourself, those which are out of copyright, or those for which you have the required permission for the work to be used in all the ways described above. Please note that derivative works of copyrighted material are also considered copyrighted. Again, please read through Commons:Licensing, which is quite crucial, to understanding how Wikimedia Commons works. Thanks for your contribution, and please do leave me a message if you have further questions.
