There is no freedom of panorama in Greece per Commons:FOP#Greece. Ww2censor (talk) 04:20, 16 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

* Keep - Any work that is permanently placed anywhere in Greece is not eligible for copyright:

"The occasional reproduction and communication by the mass media of images of architectural works, fine art works, photographs or works of applied art, which are sited permanently in a public place, shall be permissible, without the consent of the author and without payment." Paragraph 26; Greek Copyright Law.
 Delete Per 70 year copyright law. --Philly boy92 (talk) 15:49, 17 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: your quote is correct but we are not "mass media", so your claim fails. Please read Commons:FOP#Greece fully. Ww2censor (talk) 14:48, 16 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Since the work was published on flickr, my point on the mass media is sound. Also, I have read both the entry on FOP in Greece and the 2 previous discussions on the talk page. --Philly boy92 (talk) 22:06, 16 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

* Keep mass media implies that it is OK for commercial use and they specifically cite art on permanent display such as this. unfortunately, the wording of the freedom of panorama provisions is not ideal. Wikipedia article on Votsis states the monument was erected in 1934, so it has been on display for over 77 years. Warfieldian (talk) 16:07, 16 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

 Delete new information on sculptor and date of death make it advisable to delete and then un-delete beginning of next year when copyright expires. Warfieldian (talk) 14:46, 17 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
@ Warfieldian: Actually, if you read the law linked from Commons:FOP#Greece where "mass media" is fairly well defined in several places as newspapers, journals. magazine and similar media; i.e., you can use it as journalist do, but we require commercial and modification permission and I certainly don't see that as being allowed. Essentially it is journalistic fair-use which is not free enough for the commons. You are however correct to states that "the wording of the freedom of panorama provisions is not ideal." Ww2censor (talk) 17:04, 16 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
If that's the case, then I agree derivative works are required for commons. Certainly, the Greek copyright law is more dubious than in other countries and, since it is well over 70 years since it was first displayed, I think it is reasonable to vote for keep. Warfieldian (talk) 17:13, 16 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
@Ww2censor: I'm sorry but this is gross misrepresentation of what the law says. The law does not define that mass media are newspapers and periodicals. The law says "newspaper, periodicals and other mass media", which includes all other mass media, including the internet. It doesn't say "all other such mass media", which would mean it defines mass media as periodicals and newspapers. Additionally Clause 68 clearly states that all works published 70 years prior are not under copyright because the law is not retroactive. --Philly boy92 (talk) 22:01, 16 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
The problem is not so much whether Wikipedia might or might qualify as "mass media" under Greek law. It well might. But the whole exception is limited to the "mass media", so it's a "fair-use"-like exception for news reporting. It does not allow you to sell T-shirts with that photo printed on the front (or back). Hence general commercial use, as we require, is not given by this exception. Therefore:  Delete for now. On January 1, 2012, undelete it again: it was created by sculptor George Dimitriades[1], who died in 1941 (See el:Γεώργιος_Δημητριάδης). Lupo 12:36, 17 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
You are right about general copyrighted work, it is not legal to take a picture of a non-permanent piece of art and put it on a shirt for commercial use. However the particular paragraph about permanent works of art clearly specifies that such works of art are allowed for reproduction by the mass media without anyone's consent. By the same logic, and due to the unclear nature of the document on FOP, any picture taken anywhere in Greece is a violation of copyright because someone has copyright it. By that logic it is illegal for me to photograph the lamp post outside my house because someone has copyright over it. --Philly boy92 (talk) 13:48, 17 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
You said it yourself: "such works of art are allowed for reproduction by the mass media without anyone's consent". My emphasis. If I'm having this image printed on t-shirts, I'm not "mass media" (and it's not an "occasional" reproduction either). However, we require that images must allow commercial use by anyone. Not just the "mass media".
The lamp post outside your house in all likelihood is not copyrighted because it doesn't meet the threshold of originality. Go ahead and upload pictures of that lamp post :-) On many other works, any copyright that might have existed may have expired, so photos of such works are OK, too. (As will be this photo after December 31, 2011, when the copyright on that bust will have expired.) Other copyrighted works may appear as minor elements in overview photos; see de minimis on that. But in general, yes, countries not having full FOP are a major nuisance if you want to freely publish your photos of artworks or of modern buildings in public space.

1988 modern art sculpture. Unfortunately no Freedom of Panorama in the US. -- Deadstar (msg) 07:56, 16 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

1988 statue in the United States. Per Commons:Public art and copyrights in the US, this is an unpublished statue. {{PD-US-1978-89}} only applies to published works. Stefan4 (talk) 13:40, 27 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Wrong. "This definition of publication requires more than displaying a work to the public: it requires that individuals gain a possessory interest in a tangible copy of the work as a “transfer of ownership.”" The statue was created by the sculptor and transferred (change of possession) to the City of Wakefield. All I can say is "wow", if this is how you interpret US copyright law I fear that all of your edits may need to be reviewed for mistaken deletions and vindictive nominations (as this one clearly was). Keep --Bobak (talk) 19:35, 1 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
If you think that Commons:Public art and copyrights in the US is wrong, then I suggest that you start a discussion at COM:VPC about that, since there are lots of deletion discussions all of the time which are based on that page. I am not convinced that you could say that tangible copies have been sold to the public. One copy was sold to the City of Wakefield, but other people were not offered a copy of the work. I'm not sure if the use of a plural form in s:United States Code/Title 17/Chapter 1/Section 101 is relevant, but the last sentence in the definition is certainly relevant: "A public performance or display of a work does not of itself constitute publication."
If you visit a monument such as w:The Little Mermaid (statue) or the w:Eiffel Tower, then you will frequently find sellers around the monument selling 3D miniature copies of the monument. I believe that this is what counts as publication under the Copyright Act of 1976 and that you would have to show that sellers have offered copies of this work in a similar fashion if you wish to claim that {{PD-US-1978-89}} applies to the work. --Stefan4 (talk) 21:48, 1 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
no, PD-US-1978-89, does not apply to published works alone. rather, one could find a published derivative of this work in the newspaper, or dedication program which would qualify as publication. a higher bar than pre-1978, but not impossible. Slowking4 †@1₭ 02:58, 31 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I am torn here. On the one hand, this image was deleted by me after due process in 2011. Bobak uploaded it again without an UnDR or other process, which is a serious violation of our rules. The image is, therefore, a candidate for {{Speedy}}. On the other hand, the fact that it was installed in 1988 without registration or copyright notice makes it, according to my reading of the law, PD.

If we accept Stefan's reading of the rule, the statue will never be published and, therefore, have an indefinite copyright. That would be a violation of the Copyright clause in the US Constitution, which calls for "limited times". Our general rule has been that if a work is to remain unpublished, the owner must enforce a rule against making of copies, both 3D and 2D. Having seen the usual souvenirs around the world, I would be very surprised if there were not miniatures and postcards of this work available. At http://www.bobclendenin.com/The%20USA/Peter%20Toth/Peter%20Toth%20Page%204/Peter%20Toth%20page%204.htm, the writer mentions such a postcard. The point though, is not that models or postcards are actually offered, but that nothing is done to prohibit them. Clearly copyright cannot hinge on whether vendors find it commercially reasonable to sell copies of a work. Therefore, I think this is a  Keep. .     Jim . . . .

  •  Keep I have several concerns with this nomination:
    1. When there are two versions of a file, one should be deleted -- but it is important when they are in different categories, or have different descriptions, for a wise human to apply wise human judgment on which information should be merged into the version that is going to be retained.
    2. A human (me!) uploaded the earlier version of this image, a week after it was taken. A robot uploaded the second version of this image -- about three months later. In my own opinion it is important not to unnecessarily undermine the satisfaction of our human volunteers. Robots should be smart enough to recognize when they are uploading a duplicate of an existing image. If the robot has access to a higher resolution version of the image it should update the existing image with the higher resolution version.
    3. It is amazing that robots can guess at good categories. But frankly robots do an inferior job at adding categories that wise humans.
    In general, when a duplicate is deleted via adding a {{tl}duplicate}} tab, there is no question in my mind that the nominator who placed the duplicate tab has the primary responsibility to make sure any important information from the file they recommend deleting. I think the deleting administrator should double check to make sure wise merging was done.
    In this particular case I merged the categories and other important information from the two images. I uploaded the higher resolution version to the original file.
    For the reasons I offered above the version named in this nomination should be kept, and the later robot uploaded version is the one which should be deleted. Geo Swan (talk) 05:47, 16 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Withdraw nomination - a new version has been uploaded, the other file has been tagged with duplicate now they're identical. In response to the comments above, I've listed probably over 100 of these US Navy duplicates, I use {{Duplicate}} most of the time when they're an exact match, but these two were quite different. The priority I use for which file to keep is:
  1. One file is higher resolution or higher quality (both in this case)
  2. One file is widely linked in other projects
  3. Keep the human upload.
It may be worth having a quick check on defenseimagery.mil for similiar uploads, if the high-res original had been uploaded I would have nominated the bot file for deletion. Benchill (talk) 08:49, 16 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Comment Thanks for offering the order of your priorities. I think there are elements missing from your list.
    1. Robots are simply not capable of wise human judgment in choosing categories.
    2. If two images are otherwise identical the first to be uploaded should be kept.
    • No offense, but I suggest that the first criteria I list out-ranks the ones you listed. Further I would rephrase your third criteia, and give it priority over your other two -- Robots have no feelings to hurt. Human volunteers do.
    • If the human volunteer got there first the robot should have been smart enough to skip that image, or to have updated the existing image with higher resolution, geographic coordinates, the mil-id.
    • Clarification please -- in those other 99 uses of the {{Duplicate}} tag, did you apply your wise human judgment in merging the categories, etc, prior to marking one image for deletion? Geo Swan (talk) 18:55, 16 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Ok, I'm unable to agree with you on keeping the human-uploaded file above all other considerations, it's sensible to remove the low quality file and keep the high quality one and not vice versa. You're welcome to re-upload a high quality file like in this case if you want. I've experienced lots of minor setbacks like this, please persevere.
  • The bot categorization is basic and sometimes erroneous, but these files like all others may be updated by human editors later. Many of the US Navy images have had additional categories assigned by a human. The categories etc don't figure into deciding which file the keep as far as the US Navy files are concerned, because it would only mean deleting more human uploads. These details can easily be copy/pasted from one file to another.
  • If both uploads are human, identical images, and both unused by any project, then I nominate the later one. This would be #4 on the priority list.
  • I do my best to check if any file details, description, source, categories need to be transferred to the file to be kept.
  • You can contact the bot owner for any requests, I think overwrite lower quality duplicates would be declined but it dosn't hurt to ask. Benchill (talk) 01:52, 17 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
    • Thanks for clarifying that you transfer information from the image you suggest should be deleted to the image you suggest should be saved.
    • WRT the bot owner -- who would that be? As to whether it is solely up to the bot owner to decide whether the bot should recognize when it is uploading a duplicate, and whether it should update the earlier image, not upload the higher resolution version to the original -- that just doesn't seem right. I think even if a bot was originally approved, the community should be able weigh in and insist on changes when we recognize the bot has weaknesses.
    • WRT to basing your decision on which image is the highest resolution, when you notice they are duplicates -- may I ask why you consider this such an important factor? Replacing the actual image with a higher resolution version is one of the most trivial tasks, one of the easiest and most appropriate to be handled automatically. Choosing good categories is important, challenging. Organizing our images is more important than the initial upload. There are several broad topics where I uploaded dozens, or hundreds of images, added categories, only to have someone better informed on that topic to come in and totally reorganize the categorization. In each of those broad fields it has seemed to me that the person who reorganized the images performed a more important task than I did with my initial upload of the images. So, for this reason, I disagree with your position that which image was the highest resolution when you discovered the duplication. Geo Swan (talk) 02:44, 17 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • The bot for the US Navy images is User:BotMultichillT as appears in the file history, managed by User:Multichill. I think it would be declined on the basis of impractical, Commons itself only recognises duplicates when they are bit-for-bit identical, and it may be the case bit-for-bit duplicates aren't uploaded by the bot. I think the error rate in this regard is low enough we can tidy up the odd loose end.
  • I think we want the same end result, keep one copy of the highest qualilty version of the photo available, but differ on the method to get there. It takes a lot longer to download then reupload than just tagging the low quality file. When you're doing lots of these it's too inefficent, days of time wasted.

  •  Delete There is no Flickrreview for this one, and a December 2008 snapshot of the Flickr user's main page indicates their photos were generally "All Rights Reserved" at the time (this was uploaded mid-2008). Normally removal of licenses is definitely a bad thing and not a reason for deletion, but it appears strongly that the original uploads were copyright violations. Or, at least, the user thought they had permission to upload them at the time, but the extent of that permission is not clear. Carl Lindberg (talk) 19:42, 6 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Screenshots for the proposed Controversial Content system

[edit]

Contain copyrighted third-party logo.--Nardog (talk) 12:36, 16 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Request to replace: It is still very controversial despite File:English Pokémon logo.svg was kept after the deletion debate (actually no consensus at all since 2 keep votes and 2 delete votes in the debate), the regulation about the copyright of fonts/typefaces are complicated and different in different countries and different laws. So at least no need to show these controversial pictures in all language versions of a most viewed referendum these days. It is recommended to have them all replaced by obvious free images (or deleted then do the replacement in all page of meta:Image filter referendum). I see the uploader User:Jorm (WMF) has already agreed to delete them all, so it should be easy more to delete or replace them. --Tomchen1989 (talk) 03:59, 19 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Kept.

It is well established policy that anything that is pure text is PD. It does not matter if the font is simple or complex, or if the text is in a straight line, arced, or in a circle -- pure text is PD.

Note to User:Tomchen1989. DR comments are not votes. Policy is that they simply advise and inform the closing DR. The closing Admin is perfectly free to disregard all the comments, although, of course, he or she must have a good reason for doing so. Referring to the comments as votes is misleading. In any case, the count at Commons:Deletion_requests/File:English_Pokémon_logo.svg was three  Keep and two  Delete -- you forgot to count the closing Admin.

Uploaded and claimed "own work" by User:LazarusHUN, alleged author "Arno", but per EXIF "Martin Hooper Photography". Túrelio (talk) 14:08, 16 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

A permission e-mail will be sent from Monica Porter in the next few days. LazarusHUN
I've added an OTRS-pending tag. --Túrelio (talk) 14:40, 16 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
OTRS ticket tagged. Photographer asserted to be Arno, not Martin Hooper Photography. – Adrignola talk 13:26, 17 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Did he/she say anything about why the EXIF data mention "Martin Hooper Photography"? The permission relates surely to the current image version[9], right? (because the first version[10] shows a totally different image of the same person). --Túrelio (talk) 13:28, 17 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I'll push for details as to the discrepancy. I often ask how copyright has been transferred from the photographer, but I have had other OTRS agents admonishing me for thinking about even asking for documentation showing a transfer of rights because it'd be too onerous so often we just have the word of the subject that the photographer transferred all rights. She may switch to saying the photographer was actually "Martin Hooper Photography" and she made a mistake regarding the version of the file. We'll see, and that may or may not be sufficient to allay the concerns that prompted this DR. – Adrignola talk 15:48, 17 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
"I have no idea who Martin Hooper is." Well, I'll try emailing Arno photography and Martin Hooper Photography and see who claims to have taken the photo. I'm also double-checking with them that all rights were transferred. – Adrignola talk 16:03, 17 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for your efforts. --Túrelio (talk) 16:09, 17 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Arno claims to have taken the picture but also claims to retain copyright, which would mean the original statement by Monica Porter was false (I imagine this may be quite common with images submitted by the subjects and it's why I always like to ask how copyright was transferred). I am seeking confirmation as to the licensing with Arno. – Adrignola talk 14:07, 18 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
And now it's OTRS confirmed by Arno Photography. – Adrignola talk 14:13, 25 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hey guys, Just a question... if someone takes a photo of me then he/she has got the copyright and I don't? Except when it's transferred to me? Don't they both have copyright regarding the photo? I'm a little confused... LazarusHUN (talk) 10:15, 25 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The photographer has copyright on a photo unless it's transferred. The subject never does unless it's transferred, even if the picture was taken with the subject's camera. The only "right" a subject may have is personality rights, and that is not a universally recognized right. It depends on the jurisdiction. Even then, that is not a copyright and it would not give the subject the ability to dictate what can be done with the photo in every situation (just over commercial use in specific jurisdictions). – Adrignola talk 14:13, 25 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
