how to post images to be right?

Yann, hi! I keep adding images, found on internet, they are historic images of more than 30 years taken, no author can be found by me. What I am doing wrong?

Thanks! Sergiu Electrodac (talk) 12:40, 7 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Electrodac: Do not upload anything not created by you without a formal written permission from the copyright holder. If you have such a permission, please see COM:VRT for the procedure. Thanks, Yann (talk) 12:48, 7 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
So the internet is full of unclaimed, unmentioned source pictures and it cannot be used to be put here? it's absurd Electrodac (talk) 12:53, 7 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@Electrodac: On Commons, we take copyright seriously. Obviously, some people do not. Please read COM:L. Yann (talk) 12:54, 7 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

File:Mountain dog looking at you.jpg - you could have just removed the spam URLs and then it'd be a perfectly good picture of a dog. DS (talk) 20:08, 8 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hola, Yann. Gracias por notificarme, pero la imagen estaba por todos lados y pensé que no tenía copyright, Y no todas mis imagenes tienen copyright. Algunas de mis imágenes las tomé de sitios de noticias cubanos, como la del tornado de la Habana de 2019, que la tiró una persona y después la mando a redes sociales, posteriormente se hizo pública ya que la persona no puso ningún sistema de copyright a la imagen, y con mi internet no puedo buscar esa imagen. Y como tiene dominio público la subí pero me la borraron, y lo mismo con la de la tromba marina de Caimito. Y el resto las tire desde mi casa. Supercellofphoto (talk) 23:45, 9 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Supercellofphoto: Hi, Nowadays, almost everything is under a copyright by default. You have to assume that images on social media and the Internet are under a copyright. So do not copyright unless you have a formal written permission for a free license from the copyright holder. If you have such a permission, please see COM:VRT for the procedure. Regards, Yann (talk) 09:05, 10 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
<Google Transate>Hola, hoy en día, casi todo está protegido por derechos de autor de forma predeterminada. Debes asumir que las imágenes en las redes sociales e Internet están protegidas por derechos de autor. Por lo tanto, no registres tus derechos de autor a menos que tengas un permiso escrito formal para una licencia gratuita del titular de los derechos de autor. Si tienes dicho permiso, consulta COM:VRT/es para conocer el procedimiento. Saludos, Yann (talk) 09:05, 10 January 2025 (UTC)</Google Translate>[reply]
Hi Yann, if one has "to assume that images on social media and the Internet are under a copyright" - why did you remove the Copyvio on two pages (PAGE 1 / PAGE 2), containing photos with watermarks from an Internet platform that expressly prohibits the use of its images (§ 12. Propiedad intelectual e industrial)?
The owner of the depicted envelopes is an antiques dealer from Seville, who is also the photographer of the objects and therefore the author of the images. This is decisive for the authorship, not the age of the depicted objects! I might be wrong, but in my opinion this is a copyright violation. Best regards from Germany --EugenioNoel (talk) 15:06, 22 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@EugenioNoel: These 2 envelopes are obviously in the public domain, and scanning them does not create a new copyright. Yann (talk) 17:24, 22 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
That makes sense to me - thank you very much. EugenioNoel (talk) 17:43, 22 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Photographers' shadows

Am I right in thinking that Category:Photographers' shadows was a redirect to Category:Shadow of the photographer? If so, how does COM:SPEEDY apply?

File deletion

why did you delete my files? They were innocent and you deleted them, you act like they’re copyrighted but i made them by hand. You shouldn’t delete random peoples files like that, you made me angry! Anonymousguy9593 (talk) 04:26, 12 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Also, i have complete ownership of the files Anonymousguy9593 (talk) 04:27, 12 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
And if it was found elsewhere on the web I probably would’ve seen it. I only uploaded them to the scratch forums. Anonymousguy9593 (talk) 04:28, 12 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Help on what to upload or not?

Yann, I am quite new and still learning. Is the photo on this page allowed to upload: https://beeldbank.onroerenderfgoed.be/images/167127? I think yes due to the mention: “onder de volgende voorwaarden:Modellicentie voor gratis hergebruik, Naamsvermelding 4.0 Internationaal.”. Correct? Phsmet (talk) 08:41, 12 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Phsmet: Yes, it is fine. Yann (talk) 09:18, 12 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

logos and trademarks

I used official artworks and made little changes. Gota-47 (talk) 13:56, 12 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Gota-47: So what? This doesn't give you the right to upload them here without the permission from the copyright holder. Yann (talk) 16:21, 13 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Most of the copyright holders are dead (bankrupcy). So... what... Gota-47 (talk) 10:15, 14 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@Gota-47: Sadly, even if a copyright holder disappears, be it a person or a company, the copyright doesn't. These may be {{Orphan works}}, but the copyright still exists. On a personal opinion, I think we should accept orphan works, but most other people here disagree. Yann (talk) 17:57, 14 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Your most memorable shot of 2024

An user have removed a tag for a request for deletion

Hi

The user have removed the tag. So he have not the right because the request is not yet closed. What is the solution? Closing the request in merge? Panam2014 (talk) 15:19, 16 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Also, in regard of this, he seems to be a sock. Panam2014 (talk) 15:21, 16 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I think this user should have been indeffed. They’re clearly a troll/bluenoser and can’t be trusted not to immediately come back after the block expires. Dronebogus (talk) 10:28, 19 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, IPs are not permanent, so they should not be blocked indefinitely. But otherwise, I agree with a longer block if they come back. Yann (talk) 11:13, 19 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Phsmet: Who is the photographer? I don't see any free license at this page. So probably no. Yann (talk) 20:07, 20 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I noticed you deleted several images I had uploaded, namely portraits of several members of the Rhode Island General Assembly (examples: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Mike_chippendale_portrait.jpg, https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Victoria_gu_portrait.jpg, a few others).

You cited Commons:COM:NETCOPYVIO, however I am not sure why. All of these images are works of the Rhode Island General Assembly, and I included in the description of all of these images that they were both works of the State of Rhode Island and cited Rhode Island General Law § 38-2-3, which states "all records maintained or kept on file by any public body, whether or not those records are required by any law or by any rule or regulation, shall be public records and every person or entity shall have the right to inspect and/or copy those records at such reasonable time as may be determined by the custodian thereof."

Given that the portraits of these legislators were works created by a public body in the State of Rhode Island, they are public records and are allowed to be copied. I have personally verified this with the Rhode Island Secretary of State's Office and the Rhode Island General Assembly's legal counsel, and I suggest you do the same if you do not think my above explanation is sufficient. I would request that these portraits be un-deleted if possible and restored to the Wikipedia pages they were on. SusImposter49 (talk) 04:44, 21 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@SusImposter49: Hi, I am not sure if these files are in the public domain, which is different than the law you mention, but I restored them and created a regular DR instead. The license you added is wrong, and that's probably why they were nominated for deletion. Please read it, and Commons:Copyright rules by territory/United States#US_States, and correct it. Thanks, Yann (talk) 10:06, 21 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, Yann! I'm here to consult if this logo suitable for PD-textlogo? ([1] [2][3][4][5][6]) Royiswariii Talk! 16:00, 21 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Royiswariii: We already have File:Placeholder view vector.svg. Yann (talk) 16:50, 21 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Can you clarify because I don't understand. Royiswariii Talk! 09:00, 22 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@Royiswariii: There is no need to upload it, as we already have it. Yann (talk) 09:07, 22 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@Yann It seems the logo was previewed as a Placeholder view, I'm talking about this [7], [8], [9], [10], [11] Royiswariii Talk! 09:49, 22 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@Royiswariii: Ah OK. ;o) The first and the last ones: no. For the others, may be, it depends on the country of origin. You better ask on COM:VPC to have others opinions. Yann (talk) 09:55, 22 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Clarification

So that I know better, what information tells you when those old Lithuanian photos were published, thereby enabling you to deduce that their copyright has expired? Thanks. DS (talk) 18:17, 21 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@DS: We usually assume that photographs are published at the time of creation, unless evidence to the contrary. At the time, photographers handling their works to somebody outside of close family constituted publication. Yann (talk) 18:27, 21 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Oh, that's interesting. Photos from the era of "only [professionals / super-dedicated hobbyists who did their own developing] had cameras" are assumed to be published? Is there a discussion to this effect somewhere? Approximately when did this era end? DS (talk) 18:55, 21 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@DS: Well, it depends on the country. This is based on US law, but I would say generally until 1945, when cameras became much more common. I think only photographs which the photographer or their heirs donated to an archive, which then published them for the first time should be considered unpublished until recently. Please see Commons:Deletion requests/Files in Category:Found photos from the Thomas Hawk collection as example of DR kept based on this assumption. Yann (talk) 19:32, 21 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Yann, I noticed that the User:Adiiitya has been uploading numerous logos, flags, and insignias to Wikimedia Commons. Many of these appear to be either directly taken from the internet or direct recreations of those files. However, the files are being uploaded with the claim of "own work."

I am concerned about the accuracy of the copyright status and the information provided in the file descriptions. For instance, File:Blue Ensign of British Bihar and Orissa Province.jpg was uploaded with the claim of "Own work". This file seems to derive elements from the British India flag and the Bihar emblem. Additionally, there is uncertainty about whether the province ever officially had a flag of this nature. Could you please review the uploaded files for accuracy and compliance? MaxA-Matrix (talk) 15:45, 22 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I deleted some files obviously not OK, and Commons:Deletion requests/Files uploaded by Adiiitya for the rest. Yann (talk) 18:09, 22 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
