Do not eliminate them

--Ixqeo (talk) 21:27, 2 August 2018 (UTC)You do not have the right to delete the images, because an administrator evaluated them and approved them https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Alberto_Palazuelos.jpg https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Hector_Suarez.jpg If you are going to delete approved images, because according to you they infringe the norms of author's rights and because they are of flashback, then also it eliminates this one, because although it was approved by an administrator it infringes you you the norms of right of author

Delete it, because according to you it is against copyright https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Angelique_Boyer_in_2013.jpg

Mid 20th Century images

Wouldn't mind a second opinion on these photos that are mid 20th Century. I've already nominated a couple of the obvious violations. Many of the flags are probably fine I expect. GMGtalk 00:14, 8 August 2018 (UTC)

@GreenMeansGo: File:Andriod Developers Logo.svg is Creative Commons (fixed), most of the logos (if they are from the US) will qualify as PD-textlogo. I'm not sure about File:Gab Logo.svg, it's quite simple but considerably more than "simple geometric shapes". I don't see why File:Hank Williams Jr. "If the South Woulda Won" Flag.svg would be free. The snake stuff is based on w:Gadsden flag by Christopher Gadsden (1724–1805), who designed it in 1775 during the American Revolution. - Alexis Jazz ping plz 17:59, 8 August 2018 (UTC)
Yeah, I was mostly concerned with the black and white photographs claiming no license renewal. The logos that were complex enough to exceed TOO I believe are already nom'd and gone. GMGtalk 18:05, 8 August 2018 (UTC)
@GreenMeansGo: I may have created COM:RENEWAL but I don't do renewal check myself because I don't fully understand how they work. (Clindberg is better at that afaik) The license for these doesn't seem right:
I don't even see a "no renewal" claim? The first two are possibly USGov, but I didn't look into them. - Alexis Jazz ping plz 18:14, 8 August 2018 (UTC)
Or potentially it was too late in the evening for me to be thinking about copyright and I totally made that up. We'll see how DR goes. If someone can explain how these are somehow alright then no harm done. GMGtalk 18:19, 8 August 2018 (UTC)

Proposal regarding GFDL licenses

I just wanted to give you a high-five. I had been working on a similar proposal but remained unsure how to properly word it. I hope your proposal passes. Any progress towards commons being a place for the free exchange of work (under properly licensed conditions) it something I'm entirely behind! -- Sixflashphoto (talk) 16:55, 8 August 2018 (UTC)

Illustration from a Swedish children's book first published in 1907

Hi Alexis,

I would like to get your opinion on this image that I uploaded today. I am writing a Wiki profile on the illustrator, Mary Hamilton Frye (1850-1951). She illustrated a Swedish children's book written by Selma Lagerloff (1858-1940) and first published in 1907.

I am scanning images from a 1930 edition of the book, and I would like to upload all to Wikimedia and use in a gallery on MH Frye's wikipedia page (still in draft). I believe the illustrations are Public Domain (PD), because the original book was published in 1907. I am a little confused as to author's life. Do I put down the author of the book, Lagerloff or the illustrations author, MH Frye? I am assuming MH Frye.

I could ask this question at the Help Center or the Village Pump, but I tend to get answers there that refer me back to copyright rules pages/PD art pages, and I am often still confused. Your answers and comments have always been very helpfu.

Below is the first illustration that I have uploaded. I want to make sure it is correctly listed as public domain before I continue to upload additional images. I am also wondering whether I need to add Swedish copyright/PD info.

thx MauraWen (talk) 19:44, 14 August 2018 (UTC)

@MauraWen: as I was writing my answer, this question turned out to be quite a bit more complex than I thought. I'll have to ask myself at COM:VPC. I'll get back to you. - Alexis Jazz ping plz 20:26, 14 August 2018 (UTC)
@MauraWen: I can tell you one thing right away: the illustrations will be perfectly safe to upload to enwiki as PD-USonly. I'm not sure yet about Commons. - Alexis Jazz ping plz 20:45, 14 August 2018 (UTC)
@MauraWen: Upload to enwiki as PD-USonly, upload to Commons in 2022. - Alexis Jazz ping plz 00:18, 15 August 2018 (UTC)
thanks! @Alexis Jazz: . I would have never figured that out on my own. I have already uploaded this image to Commons, and I cannot find a way to delete the image. I will keep working on it. MauraWen (talk) 13:52, 15 August 2018 (UTC)
@MauraWen: The image is perfectly fine at Commons. Since Mary Hamilton Frye was American, the country of origin for this artwork is the US, and it is out of copyright (PD-1923). There is no need to transfer it to the English Wikipedia. De728631 (talk) 14:11, 15 August 2018 (UTC)

B dash and Craig Franklins photographs

Thank you for dealing with B dash, I had ran out of free time to do so. Also thank you again for fixing the files uploaded by Craig. Bidgee (talk) 09:39, 15 August 2018 (UTC)

using the FOP copyright

Hi Alexis,

I thought I understood (now) the copyright/PD issue for stained glass in England. I am using the panorama copyright UK for stained glass windows, both on Flickr images and one photo I scanned from a book. Is that not correct? My St. Elizabeth of Hungary image is being flagged for deletion. Please advise. thx MauraWen (talk) 18:08, 20 August 2018 (UTC)

@MauraWen: FoP itself is not a license. It gives permission for what is depicted (the stained glass, or a statue, etc) but not for its depiction (the photograph). Which is interesting, I can't recall running into this before. What if the thing depicted is covered by FoP and the photograph is a slavish copy? I don't know. The stained glass that was installed before 1923 can be tagged {{PD-art|PD-1923}}, those where the author of the stained glass died more than 70 years ago {{PD-art|PD-old-auto|deathyear=1900}} or a combination: {{PD-art|PD-old-auto-1923|deathyear=1900}}. But if they didn't? It's still covered by FoP and Bridgeman v. Corel, but I wouldn't know how to license it. - Alexis Jazz ping plz 18:31, 20 August 2018 (UTC)
@Alexis Jazz: Thanks for the information and your quick response. I am going to change the copyright tags this morning to "PD-art|PD-old-auto-1923|deathyear=1924", and hopefully those changes will save the images from being deleted. I explained what I planned to do on Magog the Ogre's talk page, as that is the person who has marked my images for deletion, and asked if he/she still had a problem with the tag I am planning to use, to let me know. And I have not heard back. MauraWen (talk) 12:42, 21 August 2018 (UTC)
@Alexis Jazz: Thank you so much for changing the CWh image tags! I was away from my laptop for the rest of the day after I contacted you and did not find a moment to address the copyright tags until this morning. You are awesome! MauraWen (talk) 12:53, 21 August 2018 (UTC)
@MauraWen: you're welcome. As for FoP, the strange answer is this: "slavish copy" only applies to works in the public domain. It is not known if it would also apply to works that are still in copyright, but Commons assumes it doesn't. So {{PD-art}} requires the depicted work to be in the public domain. If it's not and you want to use {{FoP-UK}} the photo must be freely licensed (Creative Commons or similar). So you can't upload something like St Katherine's Aisle Window because it was installed in 1992 and the creator passed away in 2016. You would have to take a photo of the window yourself or convince the photographer to release the photo with a free license to be able to use {{FoP-UK}}. Hope that helps. - Alexis Jazz ping plz 23:45, 21 August 2018 (UTC)

Question on the "published in the U.S. between 1923 and 1927" copyright tag

Hi Alexis,

If I am annoying you with too many questions, let me know and I will space my questions further apart. I am working on Margaret Redmond's profile right now and I know you (someone) notified me that the image could not be used because of the 1937 creation date. I understand that. Isaiah_stained_glass_window,_All_Saints_Church,_Petersbourough,_NH_by_Margaret_Redmond.jpg

Is there any way you (we) could find an acceptable PD copyright tag for this image? I would love to place any stained glass image on Redmond's profile. thx MauraWen (talk) 19:13, 24 August 2018 (UTC)

@MauraWen: the copyright tag for File:Isaiah stained glass window, All Saints Church, Petersbourough, NH by Margaret Redmond.jpg is probably acceptable because the church is located in the US. The only "if" would be if there actually was a copyright notice on the glass that we just can't see on the photo. I don't know how likely that would be. Can't imagine someone in 1937 put a copyright notice it, registered the copyright and renewed it. If they failed any of those steps it's public domain. - Alexis Jazz ping plz 19:26, 24 August 2018 (UTC)
Thx! @Alexis Jazz: MauraWen (talk) 19:35, 24 August 2018 (UTC)
@MauraWen: be aware this is only valid for the US. If the church had been anywhere else it wouldn't have been valid. - Alexis Jazz ping plz 19:38, 24 August 2018 (UTC)
@Alexis Jazz: , Good to know. I did find a wikicommons page with a table listing countries with copyright info and tags, so I have that to refer to, now. MauraWen (talk) 19:41, 24 August 2018 (UTC)
