Current requests[edit]

File:Peace and Friendship stadium 2014.JPG[edit]

Per Commons:Deletion requests/Files in Category:Peace and Friendship Stadium; this had valid fair uses on various Wikipedia pages (as the depiction of an object which was directly discussed in the relevant articles); and the closer of that discussion did not react to my request to spare this bureaucracy, so there you have it. This should be restored and moved to relevant Wiki as appropriate; I assume that one can trace back from which pages on other encyclopedias than the English one this was removed (where it also was likely fair use), likely via the edits of the Commons bot.

Symbol oppose vote.svg Oppose @RandomCanadian: Commons does not accept Fair Use, see COM:L. Ankry (talk) 07:31, 12 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Ankry: This is not a request to undelete this for use on Commons. This is a request to restore it in a temporary fashion so it can be moved to Wikipedia where fair use is accepted. RandomCanadian (talk) 11:46, 12 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Symbol support vote.svg Support temporary undeletion. But @RandomCanadian: , enwiki no longer applies fair use for images of unfree buildings from no FOP countries.

I see there are other Wikis where this image is also used. I've restored a copy on english WP under a slightly different title ("File:Peace and Friendship stadium 02 03 2014.JPG"). Noting the others for the record in case the other wikis also want to use it:

Additional note: mind doing the same treatment for File:Faliro_Sport_Pavillion.jpg and File:OAKA_Olympic_Velodrome.jpg (found via the history of w:Venues of the 2004 Summer Olympics)? Same considerations apply. RandomCanadian (talk) 00:19, 13 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@RandomCanadian: ensure that all of them must be used. The fact that enwiki has accepted original-resolution images of unfree international buildings from no-FOP countries does not mean enwiki is an indefinite host for all images of unfree buildings, as it is not a media repository. Thus there are only four Burj Khalifa images there and a single image of Burj Al Arab. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 01:54, 13 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@JWilz12345: These all seem to be related to buildings and venues from the 2004 Olympics ([1] shows the Faliro pavillion being removed from multiple pages, including the page about the venue itself; [2] idem for the velodrome). RandomCanadian (talk) 02:35, 13 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@RandomCanadian: in such case, then I Symbol support vote.svg Support undeletions of the two other files. Be sure to tag them with en:Template:FoP-USonly once they are transferred at enwiki. German Wikipedia also does seem to allow unfree buildings of no-FOP countries, but I cannot remember what is their relevant tag of it. Unsure about other Wikipedias though.

Blacked-out images[edit]

Per input by Kai Burghardt at Commons:Deletion requests/Files in Category:Blacked out versions of images relying on FoP in France. No copyright concerns on blacked-out versions of images. To quote their input: To qualify as a derivative work, you need to create a work. A solid black shape is not a work. There is hardly any creative/artistic process involved in creating that. Even if you claim it was a work, to be derived there still must be recognizable features, discernible clues of the original work present. Without any copyrightable traces of the source work, no violation..

In terms of scope, as these come from no-FOP countries, these are excellent illustrations on one of the effects of having no FOP in a country: censorship just to respect artists' / architects' copyrights.

From the Philippines

I excluded those whose mother files are suspected copyvios, and those whose buildings are from pre-1972 era. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.)

Symbol oppose vote.svg Oppose Plenty of photos to illustrate this subject at Category:Blacked out versions of images relying on FoP. There is no real reason to add another 10 photos, 100 photos or 10 million photos of a black cube. Thuresson (talk) 08:38, 23 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Thuresson: but there is nothing specific to the Philippines. All come from other countries. We need demonstrations about the disadvantage of having no FOP in our country. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 08:40, 23 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
This seems reasonable. But I do not think all 13 are needed for them. Do you intend to use all of them? Ankry (talk) 14:15, 23 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

While I disagree with Jim's doubts concerning scope, I think that his doubts concerning silhouette copyright need to be considered. So I leave the decision here to another admin. Or, maybe, you wish to upload images not showing sculpture shapes so exactly? Ankry (talk) 05:51, 18 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Aside from thinking these are out of scope, I Symbol oppose vote.svg Oppose restoration on copyright grounds. In of the cases above that I examined, the silhouette of the work is distinctive and almost certainly infringes on the creator's copyright. .     Jim . . .

@Jameslwoodward: but users who commented at Commons:Deletion requests/Files in Category:Blacked out versions of images relying on FoP in France think of otherwise (@Ralf Roletschek, Kai Burghardt, and Romaine: ). No distinctive features like style of windows, sculptural details, and façade details seen. Blacked-out representations of copyrighted works from no-FOP countries are also extensively used on comparison graphs like File:Tallest towers in the world.svg (containing Iran's Millad Tower) and File:Tallest Buildings in the World 2020.png (containing Burj Khalifa and Saudi Arabia's Abraj al-Bait Building), including Ox1997cow's derivatives File:Tallest towers in the world whether or not FoP.svg and File:Tallest Buildings in the World 2020 whether or not FoP.png.

  • Symbol support vote.svg Support temporary undeletion to transfer. Just because we think that the current replacement on English Wikipedia is adequate, does not mean that this is image should be kept away from that project. The file is free enough for English Wikipedia and we should not be letting our editorial preference decide which free-in-the-US FoP images they can use. IronGargoyle (talk) 14:26, 5 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    @IronGargoyle: enwiki is not supposed to mimic Commons as per w:WP:NOT#NOTREPOSITORY nothwithstanding of allowance of unfree buildings there by virtue of U.S. law and U.S. architectural FOP. In fact, Patrickroque01 who is the prolific contributor of images of unfree public works there was notified before (in 2015) about his numerous images of Philippine buildings (and was even suggested by NickW557 to reduce some of his files to fair use, which may trigger 7-day countdown to deletion if the files were left unused). As far as my searching on enwiki is concerned, there are only four images of Burj Khalifa, and a single yet heavily-used image of Burj Al Arab (from UAE that does not have FOP too for publicly-visible artworks).

File:Lenka Helena Koenigsmark.jpg[edit]

Hello, we would like to undelete the photo of Lenka Helena Koenigsmark. We did confirmed copywrite ownership as it was recommended to us in this Undeletion requests section at 26 October 2021 . The photographer Michal Ures send an email to [email protected] with copyrights at 3. 11. 2021. Then we were acknowleadge here, that we should send it to another email, so the photographer done it to [email protected] and received reply, that it is OK. It has been over a week. Can you now please undelete the photo?

It is this one photo: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Lenka_Helena_Koenigsmark.jpg We use it for this site: https://cs.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lenka_Helena_Koenigsmark

@Lenka Koe: If no VRT volunteer responds here, you may need to ask for the permission review in COM:ON providing the permission ticket number. The information about panding permission request in ticket:2021081910005781 has been added on June 20 by a volunteer who, unfrtunately, died recently.

September Woman of the Day banners[edit]

I have been working my way through the files under Category:Women in Red social media banners, adding sources and attribution to them. In my first pass, I have just reached mid-September where there's a run of deleted files, all of which were speedily deleted by JuTa, I think under CSD F5:

Since these were deleted for lacking sources, please could they be undeleted to that I can add sources to them? I've already done this for a couple of hundred other files in this category tree.

@Bjh21: Not providing links to the wikipedia article sources / their authors you violated CC-BY-SA 3.0 license terms. As I can read the license terms, once you violated them, the license has stopped to you. This means that you can no longer use the articles under the CC-BY-SA 3.0 license; in order to use them, you need to receive another license from all their authors.

The temple building falls under {{PD-Philippines-FoP work}}, as per w:Cebu Taoist Temple it was completed in 1972 (highly likely middle part or 3rd quarter part of the year, or pre-December 15, 1972).

Photos of Spoonbridge and Cherry[edit]

Per the decision to keep an image of the 1988 sculpture Spoonbridge and Cherry on a recent deletion request I initiated. IronGargoyle was convincingly able to demonstrate that although there is no freedom of panorama for public sculptures in the US, S&C was not registered with the US copyright office and tangible copies of the work were distributed (also without copyright notice). Thus, S&C has fallen into the public domain and previously deleted photos of it not prominently also featuring other works at the Minneapolis Sculpture Garden can be restored. Those files may include works previously deleted here including:

It's very possible that some of these may be duplicates of each other (as these files have been uploaded and deleted over the course of the past decade) in which case only one instance need be restored. Thank you! Bobamnertiopsis (talk) 05:52, 5 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

That plaque is from 2009 or later (note included death date). Even if it was contemporary, remember that the the exhibition of the work is not publication in this time period. It is the photograph.

Aavindraa (talk) 22:41, 5 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

What on the first file might count as de minimis, is the main part of your image. It wasn't only cropped, there's been a correction in perspective too. While hearts, a key and a lion are common charges in heraldry, the way they are displayed represents a copyrighted work of art.
