User talk:Upload Bot (Rich Smith)
How does one prevent bots from moving image files to Commons?
[edit]Re: File:La bohème by Leoncavallo - poster for the 1897 premiere.jpg. I felt this file was possibly not PD in Italy (the creator is not identified, and it was created in 1897). Although I realize that many editors probably feel this file could be uploaded to Commons, I uploaded it to the English Wikipedia and added a copy of Template:Do not move to Commons, naively thinking that there would be some discussion before it would be moved to Commons. However, User:Upload Bot (Rich Smith) moved the file anyway. Does one have to deny all bots with {{nobots}}? Or I suppose there are bots that even ignore this. (Of what use is this template, if bots like this are going to ignore it. Why is a bot like this approved?) --Robert.Allen (talk) 01:37, 19 February 2012 (UTC)
- Hi Robert, maybe I also can answer you a bit: the "upload bot" is just for the upload. The transfer itself is still manually triggered and it is the user who triggers who does not respect the "Do not move to Commons" template. You can see at each transfer who made(triggered) the transfer. In your case it was User:FSII (you can always see that in the first file page version - it may be removed in later versions). Please ask him.
If you use en:template:noCommons (I just see it was deleted: click) probably the bot will even refuse to work (at least that is the case for file in de.wikipedia). Cheers --Saibo (Δ) 02:31, 19 February 2012 (UTC)- Thanks for your response. I already asked this user about this move [1], but he did not respond. I still have no idea whether this file should be on Commons or not. I think it probably shouldn't, unless someone can tell me why it is PD in Italy. It hasn't even been 120 years since its creation, which for some reason I thought might be a good rule of thumb to use. Maybe in the EU an anonymous work enters the public domain sooner after creation, but I don't know. I would like to get to some help on this. That's why I was looking for some discussion. [Update: You may also note that on 9 February this user (who is an admin) made numerous edits and received only one comment on his talk page, yet still failed to make any kind of response.] --Robert.Allen (talk) 08:08, 20 February 2012 (UTC)
- Hi again Robert, please just nominate the file for deletion mentioning the reasons why it is not okay for Commons. Use the "nominate for deletion" link from your toolbox on the image page. That should also send the user who used the bot a deletion request notification. Thanks for watching for copyrights! Cheers --Saibo (Δ) 03:29, 24 February 2012 (UTC)

File tagging File:12-Inline.jpg
[edit]This media was probably deleted.

Thanks for uploading File:12-Inline.jpg. This media is missing permission information. A source is given, but there is no proof that the author or copyright holder agreed to license the file under the given license. Please provide a link to an appropriate webpage with license information, or ask the author or copyright holder to send an email with copy of a written permission to VRT (permissions-commons@wikimedia.org). You may still be required to go through this procedure even if you are the author yourself; please see Commons:But it's my own work! for more details. After you emailed permission, you may replace the {{No permission since}} tag with {{subst:PP}} on file description page. Alternatively, you may click on "Challenge speedy deletion" below the tag if you wish to provide an argument why evidence of permission is not necessary in this case.
Please see this page for more information on how to confirm permission, or if you would like to understand why we ask for permission when uploading work that is not your own, or work which has been previously published (regardless of whether it is your own). The file probably has been deleted. If you sent a permission, try to send it again after 14 days. Do not re-upload. When the VRT-member processes your mail, the file can be undeleted. Additionally you can request undeletion here, providing a link to the File-page on Commons where it was uploaded ([[:File:12-Inline.jpg]] ) and the above demanded information in your request. |

Wikimedia Commons does not accept derivative works of non-free works such as File:Wappen der Fliegerstaffel 17.jpg. It only accepts free content, which is images and other media files that can be used by anyone, for any purpose. Reproductions of copyrighted works are also subject to the same copyright, and therefore this file must unfortunately be considered non-free. For more information, please read Commons:Derivative works and Commons:Freedom of panorama. You can ask questions about Commons policies in Commons:Help desk.
The file you added has been deleted. If you believe that this file was not a derivative work of a non-free work, you may request undeletion.
