Reminder: Round 2 of Picture of the Year 2016 is open!

You are receiving this message because you voted in R1 of the 2016 Picture of the Year contest.

Dear Howdy.carabao,

Wikimedia Commons is happy to announce that the second round of the 2016 Picture of the Year competition is now open. This year will be the eleventh edition of the annual Wikimedia Commons photo competition, which recognizes exceptional contributions by users on Wikimedia Commons. Wikimedia users are invited to vote for their favorite images featured on Commons during the last year (2016) to produce a single Picture of the Year.

Hundreds of images that have been rated Featured Pictures by the international Wikimedia Commons community in the past year were entered in this competition. These images include professional animal and plant shots, breathtaking panoramas and skylines, restorations of historical images, photographs portraying the world's best architecture, impressive human portraits, and so much more.

There are two total rounds of voting. In the first round, you voted for as many images as you liked. In Round 1, there were 1475 candidate images. There are 58 finalists in Round 2, comprised of the top 30 overall as well as the top #1 and #2 from each sub-category.

In the final round, you may vote for just one or maximal three image to become the Picture of the Year.

Round 2 will end on 20 April 2017, 23:59:59 UTC.

Thanks,

images from external websites

Hi! I noticed that you have transferred some images from external websites. Most of the time it is not intrinsically evident that they are free for reuse. Therefore, it is preferable to let admins or reviewers confirm their copyright statuses through Commons:License review, in case their sources become unreachable. You can do so by including the following bold text right below the licence: {{LicenseReview}} . Thank you!--Roy17 (talk) 17:25, 29 March 2019 (UTC)

DR's related to the Philippines

Hi! There is a discussion at Commons:Administrators'_noticeboard/User_problems#Mrcl_lxmna about deletion requests related to the Philippines. I mentioned a DR you started. We all think that violations of copyright should be deleted but there is some discussions about mass nominations. If you have any input feel free to Comment. --MGA73 (talk) 16:54, 9 September 2020 (UTC)

Please stop conducting more deletion requests

Howhontanozaz, please stop carrying out more DR's relating to no freedom of panorama in the Philippines. This is in light of several numerous deletion requests made by a certain User:Mrcl lxmna aimed at buildings and sculptures in the Philippines. Also, this matter is being dealt with at Commons talk:Copyright rules by territory/Philippines#New discussion on PHL FoP. So please stop conducting further DR's now. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 02:05, 10 September 2020 (UTC)

Hi User:JWilz12345, I would heed your request and stop creating DRs for FoP-related issues. But this does not preclude me from creating DRs based on other copyright and policy issues. Sorry for being an irritant, but I stand with my beliefs that there is no FoP in the Philippines, and that the discussion in Commons talk:Copyright rules by territory/Philippines#New discussion on PHL FoP is not, in any way, relevant because it only dwells on procedural issues when a court case occurs. Howhontanozaz (talk) 03:49, 10 September 2020 (UTC)
Howhontanozaz, if you want, you may wish to participate at Commons talk:Copyright rules by territory/Philippines#New discussion on PHL FoP every now and then. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 03:55, 10 September 2020 (UTC)

Update

Hello Howhontanozaz. Is there an update from IPOPHL about the proposal of adding FOP clause to our copyright law? That troll, Mrcl lxmna, continues to slap hundreds of photos of Philippine buildings and sculptures. Also, has the National Library responded about the status of Bonifacio Monument in Caloocan, if ever registered (or if not)? Thank you po. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 06:43, 9 October 2020 (UTC)

@JWilz12345: Hi! IPOPHIL I believe is still in the process of studying the proposed amendments. With regards to the records of the National Library, they said that their copyright registration records only go as far back as the 1960s. I have messaged them again on Sep 24 to see if they have records for any renewal of the monument which would have happened presumably in the 60s but they have yet still to reply. Thanks for reminding me though, I would contact them again to follow-up. Kind regards, Howhontanozaz (talk) 09:08, 9 October 2020 (UTC).
If you'd like, you may also contact IPOPHIL. You can message them through Messenger, their Facebook handle is IPOPHL-Bureau Copyright and Related Rights or through email copyright@ipophil.gov.ph. Howhontanozaz (talk) 09:16, 9 October 2020 (UTC)

Hello po again. Umm, if you wish may I contact you through FB/Messenger? My FB account URL is the same as that of my username, but without "User:". Again, this is if you wish. If you decline, I will respect that. Maraming salamat po :-) JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 09:57, 22 December 2020 (UTC)
Oh haha I'm very sorry JWilz12345, I was caught up in other things that I forgot about this. Will contact you now. Howhontanozaz (talk) 11:09, 22 December 2020 (UTC)

Speedy deletion request

Thanks for the notice (about the Women's Rights Pioneers monument in Central Park) that I may have misunderstood the legal status of this sculpture.

I have also placed a speedy deletion request on "Category:Birds on Broadway (Audubon Sculpture Project)" which in retrospect I realized I may have uploaded in error based on the same logic. Should I also flag the subcategories and individual files in the category or is that taken care of automatically? UrielAcosta (talk) 22:30, 23 January 2021 (UTC)

@UrielAcosta: Unfortunately, there are no automatic process for finding potential copyright violations here in Commons thus it may be best for anyone to just file a deletion request (not a speedy deletion though) whenever they come across one. However, it seems those files have already been nominated here: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Deletion_requests/Files_in_Category:American_bittern_by_Holiber.

Deletion appeal on

Hello according to the copyright law of the Philippines, the image is now under public domain as it is at least 99 years old as seen on the date of the image having a date of 1921. Please remove your deletion request as this under the public domain as it is taken by the Philippine government (a predecessor of it). Even so, anonymous works that are over 50 years old is now under the public domain. PyroFloe (talk) 15:52, 24 January 2021 (UTC)

@PyroFloe: Where in the image did you get that it is from 1921? The numbers on the lower-left corner of the image appears to be a telephone number 3-94-21 (March 94, 1921?). Anyway, looking at Commons:Copyright rules by territory/Philippines, photographs are copyrighted in the PH from publication plus 50 years. Assuming this photo was unpublished, it became PD in 1992, which was before the URAA date so it MAY be safe. It still depends though on whether it was published or not which I must confess is a really difficult endeavor. For now, I would remove the template and maybe change the licenses.

Proper attribution

Still fairly new to the whole copyright stuff, but have provided attribution to the authors of the document pictured in the file “Covenant between William & Mary’s Catholic Student Association and Canterbury, 1977.jpg”. If there is any concern, please let me know. I have the ability to personally interact with the owner of the particular copy of the document pictured. As the image is used on a Wikipedia EN article, I wish to do all that I can to preserve it. Thank you. ~ Pbritti (talk) 16:14, 8 February 2021 (UTC)

Greetings @Pbritti: I would suggest directing the copyright holder/s to COM:OTRS/CONSENT and just tell them to follow the instructions there. Regards Howhontanozaz (talk) 16:52, 8 February 2021 (UTC)
Thank you. I have just, in my official capacity, released the media for copyright-free use. Very exciting, isn't it? ~ Pbritti (talk) 18:41, 8 February 2021 (UTC)

Image on Vincint article

Hello, the copyright information for File:Vincint Someday music video.png is available here. Click "more" just below the name of the video and you will see the CC BY 3.0 license. -Citrivescence (talk) 21:44, 18 February 2021 (UTC)

A file that you have uploaded to Wikimedia Commons, File:H4712-L60541001.jpg, is a derivative work, containing an "image within an image". Examples of such works would include a photograph of a sculpture, a scan of a magazine cover, or a map that has been altered from the original. In each of these cases, the rights of the creator of the original must be considered, as well as those of the creator of the derivative work. While the description page states who made this derivative work, it currently doesn't specify who created the original work, so the overall copyright status is unclear. If you did not create the original work depicted in this image, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright.

Please edit the file description and add the missing information, or the file may be deleted. If you created the original content yourself, enter this information as the source. If someone else created the content, the source should be the address to the web page where you found it, the name and ISBN of the book you scanned it from, or similar. You should also name the author, provide verifiable information to show that the content is in the public domain or has been published under a free license by its author, and add an appropriate template identifying the public domain or licensing status, if you have not already done so. Please add the required information for this and other files you have uploaded before adding more files. If you need assistance, please ask at the help desk. Thank you!

Hi,Howhontanozaz,

I believe that T. O'Conor Sloane, Jr. took the photograph. He died in 1963. I have no clue who might be the copyright holder if it's not in the public domain. Delete as you will.

Autopatroller

Hi, Howhontanozaz. So far your edits were marked as needing patrolling from more experienced users. But you have made a lot of good work and your edits do not need patrolling anymore, so I just made you autopatroller. Thank you for your work! Taivo (talk) 13:39, 8 March 2021 (UTC)

@Dudek1337: Hi! You can find an archived version of the YouTube page here where it still had a CC license. I really appreciate you reviewing my uploads. Howhontanozaz (talk) 00:31, 12 April 2021 (UTC)
@Howhontanozaz: The deletion notice you have added for that file is irrelevant, as the link reference is not a valid url and furthermore, the copyright owner has provided the original image to Wikimedia. — Preceding unsigned comment added by DW78832 (talk • contribs) 19:28, 27 April 2021 (UTC)
@DW78832: Note that the Instagram link is relevant because it shows that the file was published elsewhere before being uploaded to Commons. Previously published files must have permission sent via COM: OTRS. Also, the statement "the copyright owner has provided the original image to Wikimedia." is self-serving. There is no proof of this anywhere. Only way for this image to be kept is to have the copyright holder, not the subject or the owner of the print, send licensing permission to OTRS. Regards, Howhontanozaz (talk) 19:38, 27 April 2021 (UTC)

Dear @Howhontanozaz: , if you can check the link again, you can see that it's invalid and the claim is not researched at all. You may proceed to withdraw it. (DW78832 (talk) 19:46, 27 April 2021 (UTC))

Oh I'm not gonna withdraw it. No thank you DW78832. Howhontanozaz (talk) 20:09, 27 April 2021 (UTC)
