- Sorry for the slow response. The problem is that the photo is of a 3D object that itself is not thought to be free. The title implicitly acknowledges this, calling it a "Brembo disc brake", not just a "disc brake". LeadSongDog (talk) 16:24, 17 July 2008 (UTC)
- Thanks for the explanation. Then I think the problem is just the title, because the photo itself is not identifiable as a Brembo, all that can be seen is a standard four pot caliper and a disc (no logo or Brembo specific features). http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Derivative_works - "On the other hand, although the shape of an industrial product may be aesthetically satisfying and valuable, the Committee's intention is not to offer it copyright protection under the bill. Unless the shape of an automobile, airplane, ladies' dress, food processor, television set, or any other industrial product contains some element that, physically or conceptually, can be identified as separable from the utilitarian aspects of that article, the design would not be copyrighted under the bill.". I think the photo falls into this category and would be acceptable if called "disc brake". RB30DE (talk) 21:45, 23 July 2008 (UTC)
Your account will be renamed[edit]
Hello,
The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.
Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called RB30DE. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name RB30DE~commonswiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.
Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
Yours,
Keegan Peterzell
Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation
