this image is not free because it shows a piece of modern art where the artist has not been dead since over 70 years. --Gryffindor (talk) 05:02, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
- Delete, probably not allowed under the limited U.S. freedom of panorama provisions. —LX (talk, contribs) 08:45, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
- Delete - agree. Freedom of panorama probably not applicable since the photograph focuses on the artwork, as opposed to the locale. (Clearly the artwork is the focal point of the photograph; different from a photograph showing the entire corridor in which the artwork was coincidentally present in e.g. a corner, or even a smaller part of the centre.) Since the mosaic lacks authorship detail, we must assume its author is either alive or died less than 70 years ago, hence we must assume (until demonstrated likely to be otherwise) that it is under copyright. --SJK (talk) 11:32, 9 April 2010 (UTC)

Created in 1949 (see [3]) by Viktor Govorkov (see [4], text in Russian) (1906-1974) [5], still protected by copyright --Blacklake (talk) 06:33, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
- Delete In 1993, the Russian Federation retroactively extended Soviet copyrights to 50 years post mortem of author, regardless of their status under previous Soviet copyright law. Thus, per 1993 law, Govokorov's copyrights would extend to 2024. In 2004, all Russian copyrights still in force were retroactively further extended by 20 years. Thus, presently Govokorov's copyrights expire in 2044 in the Russian Federation. By various international agreements, that would also likely apply in most other territories; but in any case, the non-expiration in the country of origin is sufficient to justify its exclusion per Commons copyright policy. (Hypothetically, supposing Govokorov did this as work for hire, does not gain us anything I believe, since the duration would thus be the same, only the owner would differ.) --SJK (talk) 11:47, 9 April 2010 (UTC)

1944 London Times picture. No evidence is provided that the picture is in the public domain. Teofilo (talk) 07:18, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
- Well, it's not from the London Times, but delete anyway. It's actually a poorly forged photo based on http://history1900s.about.com/library/photos/blydday35.htm (which is probably {{PD-USGov-Military-Army}}) and http://www.ordinary-gentlemen.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/CJ.jpg (which is probably non-free).

OTRS ticket 2010033110057857: subject states that this is not her, the photographer has apparently mis-identified the subject. --JzG (talk) 08:27, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
I don't mind deleting this file - I'm not emotionally invested in keeping it here but I would like to mention that this person is not being forthcoming, in fact her statement is truly odd. I correctly identified this individual - this image goes along with video of her speaking at a public event at Loyola University. She is a well known public figure in Chicago.
Here is some background:
In January of this year, Ms. Rosemont created an account as "Penelope Tarzana" and edited her own bio on wikipedia as what was there apparently didn't suit her. As "Penelope Tarzana" she tried to overwrite the file in question with a photo not taken by me. Apparently this was not sufficient as the original file was intact as an earlier revision. Ms. Rosemont wrote to me complaining that she was having trouble deleting my photograph. (BTW, other photos of mine have appeared in a few magazine articles about her husband's death - http://theragblog.blogspot.com/2009/04/franklin-rosemont-surrealist-author.html - to date she has not alleged mis-identification in these instances).
I wrote to the wikimedia team to fix her "edit" of my work. Here is the response:

I have deleted the two images from the file history as requested.
Thank you for alerting us!
Yours sincerely, Peter Symonds
Last night this person wrote to me again complaining that my photo was back in her bio. I informed her that I didn't put it there the second time and that it could be easily removed from the biography. This is apparently not sufficient, so delete away if it suits you. But be wary of this person.
What troubles me more than her attempts to modify her own bio and related images (although this is problematic) is that she apparently stated that I misidentified her. I am a professional journalist and my integrity is at question here. So, for the record, this is an image of Ms. Rosemont - person, place and time are CORRECTLY identified. In her correspondence with me she did not state that I misidentified her - she referred to the image as "my photograph." Also, for the record, I will NOT photograph her again. Clearly there are issues that have nothing to do with me and I would like to have nothing to do with the larger issues as I just don't have the time or interest.
thanks much, Thomas Good, NYC, 01 April 2010 Thomas Good (talk) 11:26, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
- Keep It seems like most of the images on the web of Penelope Rosement are by Thomas Good: [6], [7] so if he's misidentifing her, he's made a habit of it (and several people have used his pictures who should have known better). The Illinois Labor History Society has a (presumed) independent picture[8] that looks like the same person, though it's too small and B&W to make a great ID. I find it rather unlikely that she was misidentified in this picture. (Though one might fairly point out it's a bit unflattering.)--Prosfilaes (talk) 03:00, 2 April 2010 (UTC)

Not a photograph, therefore not covered by PD-Poland as claimed. Painting after a (presumably PD) photograph, but the painting is only from 1936 and the painter lived until 1966 [9], therefore still copyrighted. Fut.Perf. ☼ 09:12, 1 April 2010 (UTC)

- Delete You cannot apply rules of copyright for photographs to paintings, even if the painting is itself based on a photograph. The painting is an original work in its own right, although it may also be a derivative work of the photograph it is based upon. --SJK (talk) 11:54, 9 April 2010 (UTC)

It is an exact duplicate of the SVG format, it is useless sice the SVG version is already automatically converted in PNG by wiki software. --F l a n k e r (talk) 18:35, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
- Keep In some cases, it is useful to have a png version, which is more universally recognised by sofwares. But update the description. --GaAs11671 14:08, 2 April 2010 (UTC)
- The png version you are talking about is [10], and it had no need for its own page whatsoever, until somebody has uploaded a version of the SVG with a colour changed. Now this PNG version has to be accessed using a longer URL, but it is not lost. All SVGs on the Wikimedia projects have their thumbnails generated in the PNG format, with no need for a File page for each. Now, if that older version of the SVG is of a value when the newer one is available, the versions that have value should have their own File pages, but no PNG thumbnails generated from them by the server should be uploaded separately ( Delete). --AVRS (talk) 18:41, 3 April 2010 (UTC)
- The file sizes are a little bit different. Maybe the old PNG version was replaced, so it was regenerated for the old SVG version when it was accessed. --AVRS (talk) 18:46, 3 April 2010 (UTC)

- Support deletion for reasons given. --VanBuren (talk) 16:52, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
Note: On his user page on the Dutch Wikipedia, the speaker and uploader states that he has spoken like the subject (i.e. Ivo Opstelten, Herman van Veen and Jörgen Raymann)—with their pronouncation and accents. In another audio file, File:Nl-Jelenia Gora-article.ogg, he uses a (imho) normal voice. 77.167.224.101 19:18, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
- He speaks clearly and so benefits the accessibility, which is the goal of Spoken Wikipedia. It is clearly not 100% serious, but that doesn't mean it is without value or useless. Also, on the dutch wiki, a lot of articles have been read by a single user, and complaints come into our helpdesk regularly. His recordings are far worse. The community has decided to keep those (though I cannot find the discussion page). Zanaq (talk) 20:37, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
- Dear User:Zanaq, the fact that other spoken texts are "far worse" is not an argument that validates the mockery and disrespect, intended or not, that is shown by trying to imitate the voice of a respected public figure. Even you acknowledge that this spoken text is not to be considered a serious contribution. As much as we are trying to have a neutral text in a wikipedia article, we should also not allow spoken text that is clearly meant to be ridiculing the subject of the article. Removing this recording is no big loss as a new text may be spoken in by anyone who thinks such a text is necessary. Regarding the "far worse" spoken texts: that is another discussion, and keep in mind that although they are worse, they do not have the intention to ridicule. Unlike this one. --VanBuren (talk) 14:25, 6 April 2010 (UTC)

This is a Russian work. While it was published in 1925, the author did not die until 1946 and thus makes this not qualify for {{PD-Russia-2008}}. The use of the Ukrainian PD tag is confusing since it is not a Ukrainian work and the author is not connected to the Ukraine in any shape or form. User:Zscout370 (Return fire) 07:21, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
- Comment There was an unresolved argument here sometime back that the Ukraine was just as much a legal successor to the Soviet Union as the Commonwealth of Independent States was, and such anything done in the Soviet Union that was PD in the Ukraine could legitimately have a PD-Ukraine tag added to it.--Prosfilaes (talk) 02:49, 2 April 2010 (UTC)
- From my point of view, it is odd that a Russian work made by a Russian is tagged with a Ukraine template. If the author had some sort of connection to the Ukraine, published there or was taken there, I can see it stand. But, I just do not know. (Also, from what I recall, the main successor of the USSR was Russia and each other state had to make their own treaties about copyrights and other stuff). User:Zscout370 (Return fire) 03:26, 2 April 2010 (UTC)
- Delete Per my understanding, since Russia is the successor state of the Soviet Union, all Soviet works are under Russian copyright. They may also be under copyright of other post-Soviet states, but I don't think that cannot bring us any better result than Russian copyright law can. (The longer term would still apply -- the rule of shorter term means shorter than the local (i.e. US) term, not shortening among multiple jurisdictions claiming the same original copyright.) So we must delete. --SJK (talk) 11:51, 9 April 2010 (UTC)
- Comment from a naive/non-lawyer perspective I would not support SJKs opinion for Ukrainian artists (from today perspective) or artists who created something during they spent some noteworthy time in the Ukraine or works created specially for publication in the Ukraine. Neither seems the case here, artist is from Russia and no clear connection to Ukraine is visible. The same applies to much/all other content in Category:Viktor Nikolaevich Deni. From that perspective: Delete, PD-Russia-2008 respectively PD-old with 70 years pma is not fulfilled. --Martin H. (talk) 22:29, 25 April 2010 (UTC)
Deleted as neither {{PD-Ukraine}}, {{PD-Russia-2008}} nor 70 years pma apply. --AFBorchert (talk) 20:39, 28 June 2010 (UTC)
If subject is author, then how did he take a picture of himself? Looks like he scanned a press photo from the newspaper from the next day. If the subject IS the author, then it needs COM:OTRS since the picture is available on a web site with no indication of free availability. Downgraded from speedy no-permission since Peter Kuiper objects. Wknight94 talk 13:49, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
Comment the uploader is apparently claiming to be a notable artist and architect, fr:Yves Ghiai, and has uploaded numerous Yves Ghiai pictures while refusing to contact COM:OTRS despite numerous talk page messages. Wknight94 talk 13:54, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
- Keep There can be no doubt that there is permission, see http://www.ghiai.com/links.htm for links to the wikipedia article where this image is used. /Pieter Kuiper (talk) 14:04, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
- That's not nearly proof that Yves Ghiai took or owns the picture. To the contrary, the fact that he's in the picture is proof positive that he didn't take the picture. Wknight94 talk 15:12, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
- He probably owns the rights. /Pieter Kuiper (talk) 15:14, 1 April 2010 (UTC)

- Unlikely. Probably a family member, friend, or colleague made the photo. Or he paid a photographer. His architect firm uses the image in its site, we do not need to make guesses about how uploader has the authority to liucense this image. /Pieter Kuiper (talk) 15:20, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
- I might agree except it's the mayor of a big city handing out an award at a podium. There were probably several photographers and there's a stronger-than-usual likelihood that this was taken for a local newspaper. Wknight94 talk 15:28, 1 April 2010 (UTC)

Deleted as it is doubtful that the uploader is the photographer. Even if the photographer agreed to a publication, we cannot be sure that he understood the implications of a free license.

Maybe the other 4 non-nude pictures are created by them, but they are not freely licensed, so dont care. However, it is not flickr washing but a "Flickrvio", see Template:Flickrvionote. --Martin H.

- Comment Okay, I'm convinced. NOTE: There are also two derivitive images File:Mons pubis cropped .jpg and File:Mons pubis 2.jpg; if this needs to be deleted as a copyviol so do the other two. Not counting use in a couple of user pages, these three images are between them illustraing articles in 12 different Wikipedias! I suggest replacement images be put in the relevent articles before deletion. Alas, I'm not sure that we have another image nearly as good an illustration of Mons pubis; the closest I see are File:Clit Hood Piercing.jpg (which unfortunately for the purpose has a districting bit of piercing jewellery) and File:Mons venus.jpg (perhaps the best choice, though not as good a photo and in black and white). (BTW, I think this disproves the too often heard argument that Commons has "too many" genitalia images-- we may have lots of random snapshots of genitalia, but we can certainly use more images that are high quality well photographed and anatomically illustrative.) -- Infrogmation (talk) 16:38, 3 April 2010 (UTC)

- Delete as for Pieter. @Infrogmation: you are right, we do not have many good, illustrative, educational, high quality images of genitals etc., but this must not be a motivation to import images from dubious sources. I believe more than 50% of our flickr imports are doubtful, very many of them are from flickr accounts wich are no longer present, or from accounts wich use cc-templates with clearly copyrighted material. But it is not in any case easy to prove the copyvio with every single image. We should not use any photos from flickr accounts that have been caught using ONE copyvio. Those acconts should not have any credit now and in future. -- smial (talk) 12:02, 3 May 2010 (UTC)
- Hold on Nelly. The tineye hits are all for SMALLER images. It is also interesting this is the ONLY image from that flickr user that is not all rights reserved, suggesting somebody from the Commons community has spoken to him before. Let's see if we can ascertain where the photo came from. -Nard the Bard 22:52, 3 May 2010 (UTC)
