Thanks for uploading File:Runrig concert, Inverness, Aug 2012.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 ([email protected]). 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:Runrig concert, Inverness, Aug 2012.jpg]] ) and the above demanded information in your request. |

JuTa 07:12, 9 December 2018 (UTC)
- @JuTa: Can you be more clear what your issue with this image is? It's a two dimensional work, so the photographer doesn't have an independent copyright, and it was an election poster posted publicly in Slovakia, hence it should be PD under Slovak copyright law {{FoP-Slovakia}}. Thanks, Catrìona (talk) 07:23, 9 December 2018 (UTC)
- Hi, {{FoP-Slovakia}} isnt a license template. And I guess it doesnt apply here if you copied it out of a book or similar. It would only apply if this is permanently visible on a public street or similar. A poster is normaly not counted as permanetly visible. You need to find a suitable license within Commons:Copyright tags for it. (If there is one) regards --JuTa 07:28, 9 December 2018 (UTC)

Autopatrolled rights given
[edit]Hello. I just wanted to let you know that I have granted autopatrol rights to your account; the reason for this is that I believe you are sufficiently trustworthy and experienced to have your contributions automatically marked as "reviewed". This has no effect on your editing, it is simply intended to make it easier for users that are monitoring Recent changes or Recent uploads to find unproductive edits amidst the productive ones like yours. In addition, the Flickr upload feature and an increased number of batch-uploads in UploadWizard, uploading of freely licensed MP3 files, overwriting files uploaded by others and an increased limit for page renames per minute are now available to you. Thank you. - FitIndia Talk Mail 11:37, 1 January 2020 (UTC)

Images of Štefan Polakovič and Stanislav Mečiar
[edit]Hi Buidhe, I have just seen that you have uploaded a lot of very usable images to Wiki Commons. May I pose a request to you: I am currently writing an article about Slovak National Socialism, and it would be great to have portraits of it's to main philosophers in there. Best regards, --Trimna (talk) 09:28, 4 March 2020 (UTC)
- @3mnaPashkan: Thanks! I do not have time to search right now, but many newspapers and magazines from the Slovak State era are digitized and available here. If you search e.g. "Stanislav Mečiar" and put 1945 as the end date, you can look through the results to see if there is a photograph of him. If there is no byline on the photograph, it can be uploaded as {{PD-Czechoslovakia-anon}}. However, this is quite time consuming so if your local wiki (dewiki?) allows it, it is much faster to do a local fair use upload. Thanks for your contributions! Buidhe (talk) 14:30, 4 March 2020 (UTC)
- Dear Buidhe, sry for the late answer and many thanks for your advise! I looked through Nový svet and Gardista, but for now I haven't found anything – guess I have just to keep on searching ;-) I would greatly appreciate if you could keep uploading images from Slovak history on Commons (of course only when your time allows it). --Trimna (talk) 00:13, 10 March 2020 (UTC)
Hi, so here's my first try. Do you have any advices on it? I just don't know how to get an more enlarged version of it. Regards, --Trimna (talk) 20:03, 10 March 2020 (UTC)
- @3mnaPashkan: I just uploaded two new versions of the file, keep whichever you like better. You can download the entire issue as a PDF (see left sidebar) and then zoom in on the image to get the best quality. (However, the entire issue cannot be uploaded because many text articles are still probably copyrighted). Buidhe (talk) 20:13, 10 March 2020 (UTC)
- Awesome, I'm deeply grateful ;-) --Trimna (talk) 20:56, 10 March 2020 (UTC)
I'll try to upload the images from here, here and here, but since you are much faster in this than me, maybe you make it earlier. --Trimna (talk) 22:36, 10 March 2020 (UTC)
- Dear Buidhe, heartfelt thanks for so many uploads. Your doing such an important work! --Trimna (talk) 19:04, 21 March 2020 (UTC)
Hello! In the case you are interested, I've found new great image material here. There are also some great shootings from the Hlinka Guard. Best regards --Trimna (talk) 21:08, 30 March 2020 (UTC)

Images of Fascist concentration camps in Libya

Images of the Fascist concentration camps can be seen at a end of a franche scientific page here. Could you upload them?

I've updated my guide, please let me know if you have any comments. Also, I am having trouble with what US copyright tag to use for "works by Polish artists who died 1950 published in Poland after 1946 but before 1950", since it is the case of {{PD-old-70}} for Poland but {{PD-1996}} is no longer valid for the USA. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus Talk 06:42, 11 May 2020 (UTC)
- @Piotrus: I am a bit confused by the question, as it states in your guide under "What is not PD in Wikimedia Commons", the files have to have been PD on the URAA date to be kept. Unless I'm misunderstanding something, the publications in question aren't PD in the US and must not be kept on commons. Buidhe (talk) 06:49, 11 May 2020 (UTC)
- I've asked for input at Commons_talk:Hirtle_chart#What_happens_for_works_where_copyright_was_renewed? and also on pl wiki. Do you mean that for example, works of an author who died in 1949 and are now PD in Poland are not PD in the USA? --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus Talk 06:59, 11 May 2020 (UTC)
- @Piotrus: Yes, that's exactly what URAA did. For any work not PD in Poland on 1 January 1996, copyright runs 95 years from publication under US law. Buidhe (talk) 07:04, 11 May 2020 (UTC)
- So, Category:Sasza Blonder (for example) should be emptied? --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus Talk 07:23, 11 May 2020 (UTC)

And, no, there was no "personal attack" in my last comment, or in this one.

Gallica and PD-Art
[edit]Hey there! Don't use PD-Art for Gallica images: The BnF doesn't claim copyright on their scans - they state openly the images are public domain - which means we're adding an unnecessary restriction if we put PD-Art on it. PD-Art is a more restrictive license than a general PD statement. The Library of Congress (US Federal agency, hence unable to create copyright) is another one to avoid PD-Art for.

For the record, given it's the lead image for the newspaper, and given the quote is... well, I don't want to say harmless, but sufficiently specific to its time, and greatly adding to the discussion of Naziism.

Photos from USHM
[edit]Hi Buidhe. I've noticed that recently you uploaded some photos from collections of the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum which depict death camps in Bełżec and Sobibór. Do I understand correctly that from the legal point of view every USHM photo mark as "public domain" (like this one) can be uploaded in Commons? Regards.Dreamcatcher25 (talk) 06:45, 13 July 2020 (UTC)
- @Dreamcatcher25: I've found that some of the public domain claims are not correct for all jurisdictions, so I would not upload unless there's a plausible explanation for being public domain both in US and source country. In some cases, there are multiple sources for a file and only some of them are marked public domain, while others are marked copyright. In those cases, I would excercise caution. (For example this photo appears to be a private photograph—not PD-USArmy as Seibel's job was not a photographer—I would not upload it even though KZ-Gedenkstaette Mauthausen claims it's public domain). Photographs from NARA, or those with Signal Corps watermark, can be safely assumed to be {{PD-USGov}} or {{PD-US-alien property}}, but if the photographer was not a US government employee, copyright status in the source country also has to be considered. For example this photo cannot be uploaded (Ricken died less than 70 years ago so not PD in Austria). If it says "Cases Tried" then it's safe to assume it was published as part of war crimes trials in the 1940s and therefore {{PD-EU-no author disclosure}} (if anonymous). If it's marked public domain and the source is a Polish archive as in the example you gave, Polish law is very liberal with regard to photograph copyright so I just mark it as {{PD-Polish}} (which also covers being public domain in the US). In short, most of them are OK to upload with a bit of common sense and caution. Buidhe (talk) 07:24, 13 July 2020 (UTC)

Hello. Is there a criterion under which File:Porn actress lisa wilson.jpg could be renamed to File:Lisa Wilson.jpg? It was moved from that name for a very weak reason. I don’t see why the file could not have that name, especially as there are no other files with similar names, the proposed name already redirects to it and the proposed name would match the Commons category and the Wikidata item. FredWalsh (talk) 01:03, 20 July 2020 (UTC)
- @FredWalsh: I believe this situation is covered under COM:FRNOT, specifically: "Files should NOT be renamed only because the new name looks a bit better." and "Files should NOT be renamed only to translate the filename to another language and/or because the filename is not correctly capitalized." Buidhe (talk) 01:13, 20 July 2020 (UTC)
- It is not a case of making it look a little better or correct capitalization. The proposed name was used until someone renamed it for a weak reason that is not covered by the renaming criteria. Why cannot it match the category and wikidata item? FredWalsh (talk) 01:17, 20 July 2020 (UTC)
- The other move was six years ago and the title has been stable since then. Nevertheless, if you are convinced that the file meets the renaming criteria (it doesn't) feel free to take it up with another file mover. Buidhe (talk) 01:20, 20 July 2020 (UTC)

Commons:Featured picture candidates/File:Charles-Antoine Cambon - La Esmeralda, Act III, Scene 1 set design (Version 2).jpg
[edit]Responded to you there. I get your confusion, though. This kind of artwork threw me a lot at first, but I suppose it predates black-and-white photography, so which colour became the middle was up in the air. And if you want more detail...
This seems to be the sort of technique that was particularly suited to making prints from - easy to tell light, midtones, and darks apart, which meant that you could work a print up from very little. I think Cambon is cheating a bit here - his use of white is relatively unimportant and slapdash - I get the feeling on the right he's using it more as an anti-shadow for the out of-focus background elements - but this is a production drawing, the next stage would have been something like https://gallica.bnf.fr/ark:/12148/btv1b54002418n.r=charles%20cambon?rk=85837;2 - but, on the other hand, that may be for the best: 19th-century white ink, if used in too great of quantities, tends to turn rather ugly colours. For example, https://gallica.bnf.fr/ark:/12148/btv1b70010807/f1.item.r=charles%20cambon.zoom
Will I do more Cambon? Sure. He did some gorgeous things for Armide, for example: [1] [2] - and when he is consciously using white for special effect, it can be stunning. [3] - he even, rarely, does more full-colour images, e.g. [4], [5] - and his Wikipedia article could probably use more than just La Esmeralda as examples.

Request for images of Ludak ministers
[edit]Dear Buidhe, I would like ask you again for your professional help with the upload of some portrait images from Ludak ministers, which can be found here. The most important one for me would be Ferdinand Ďurčanský: He still has no proper picture on Commons, and I need him as the leading figure behind the far-right Nástup group, which I would like to describe in the German article of Hlinka's Slovak People's Party.

Request for de:Rodobrana images
[edit]Hello Buidhe, there are two things I would kindly ask you for:
- Is it possible to upload this three pictures from Vojtech Tuka, Alexander Mach und Anton Snaczký? I'm not sure about the copyrights, because there is a seal from a Slovak library and some kind of signature next to two of the pictures.
- In addition to this picture from Nový svet, would it be possible to upload also this version of it? For my Rodobrana article important is the fact that on the latter one can see to full Rodobrana logo on Tukas shirt pocket.
Kindly regards, --Trimna (talk) 10:50, 5 March 2021 (UTC)
- Trimna, In this case, the images are not anonymous. These appear to be sketches rather than photographs and the author would have had to be dead prior to 1946 in order to be PD-US per COM:URAA, since at that time (in 1996) Slovakia had a 50-year copyright law for artistic works, I believe (now extended to 70 years).
- I can't see the second image here, but if they are two versions of the same photograph, than either both of them are free or neither is. Please remember to link them with {{Other versions}}! Buidhe (talk) 15:42, 5 March 2021 (UTC)
- Done. Thank you so much and best wishes, --Trimna (talk) 16:44, 5 March 2021 (UTC)

[edit]Hello Buidhe,
you declined my renaming request for above named file. Pict shows a headlight of a car and is in the category:Automobile headlamps. But nothing in the name gives a hint of the type of car. Pict does not shows a logo of the manufacturer either. Please conpare most other picts in the headlight category. So please tell me, which part of the name guideline do you see to decline. Thank you in advance. Regards, Wikisympathisant (talk) 07:23, 18 May 2021 (UTC)

[edit]Hi, you recently renamed the file 9295787 Artic Fjord 2004.jpg to 9295787 Arctic Fjord 2004.jpg. What is the reason for this? The ship is now named Aqua Fjord. but when the picture was taken it was named Artic Fjord. --Cavernia (talk) 13:24, 28 July 2021 (UTC)
- Cavernia I'm sorry, it was asked to be moved by SHB2000 on the basis of typo in the name. Unfortunately, I assumed that this was a typo for "Arctic" rather than checking the actual name of the ship. Because I am not an admin I cannot undo this move, so I've asked it to be moved back by an admin. My apologies for the mistake. Buidhe (talk) 20:21, 28 July 2021 (UTC)
- Oh, that was my bad. Yes, I thought that was a typo, but not realising that it was the name of the ship. SHB2000 (talk) 21:39, 28 July 2021 (UTC)
- FYI, file movers can move files over a redirect which have had no edits after being created without being an admin. So, even though the template says you need to be an admin to move the file, you could have moved the file with just file mover permissions. TommyG (talk) 06:46, 3 August 2021 (UTC)

LGBT rights map
[edit]Hi, regarding Decriminalization of homosexuality by country or territory (remastered).svg, this map seems to me to be inaccurate. Australian states and territories largely decriminalised homosexual intercourse in the 70s and 80s, with Tasmania the last to do so in 1997. Please refer to LGBT rights in Australia. Kind regards, Thorpewilliam (talk) 08:34, 3 April 2022 (UTC)
- Yes, I was unable to distinguish the different provinces so it shows the last jurisdiction in Australia to decriminalize homosexuality; the same situation is shown in the US. Buidhe (talk) 08:40, 3 April 2022 (UTC)

A file that you have uploaded to Wikimedia Commons, File:Karl Hermann Frank (cropped).jpg, is a derivative work, containing an "image within an image". Examples of such works would include a photograph of a sculpture, a scan of a magazine cover, or a map that has been altered from the original. In each of these cases, the rights of the creator of the original must be considered, as well as those of the creator of the derivative work.
While the description page states who made this derivative work, it currently doesn't specify who created the original work, so the overall copyright status is unclear. If you did not create the original work depicted in this image, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. Please edit the file description and add the missing information, or the file may be deleted. If you created the original content yourself, enter this information as the source. If someone else created the content, the source should be the address to the web page where you found it, the name and ISBN of the book you scanned it from, or similar. You should also name the author, provide verifiable information to show that the content is in the public domain or has been published under a free license by its author, and add an appropriate template identifying the public domain or licensing status, if you have not already done so.

[edit]Dear younger colleague, I appreciate your sense of humor! I am Bulgarian from Bulgaria and am familiar with the subject: Bulgarians, other Balkan peoples and Armenians have had similar problems provoking debates (called "Eastern question") in XIX century.

File:Institut-fur-Sexualwissenschaft-1921.jpg
[edit]Hey,
Just saw your CSD on File:Institut-fur-Sexualwissenschaft-1921.jpg and had a query. German copyright law for photographs expires 50 years after their first publication, assuming it's not a spontaneous photo taken by the author per UrhG section 72. Do we know if that source was ever published anywhere by Römer, and if so when was that published? Sideswipe9th (talk) 01:45, 15 March 2024 (UTC)
- Sideswipe9th He was a professional photographer so that is definitely not reasonable to assume. Buidhe (talk) 01:50, 15 March 2024 (UTC)
- I've found what may be the original on the Prussian Heritage Image Archive (source), according to their copyright page images that are under copyright protection will indicate in the image preview's description what the copyright is. As far as I can tell, there's no copyright listed in the description, or anywhere else in the metadata on the archive's website for this photo. I think the original might be PD. Sideswipe9th (talk) 01:57, 15 March 2024 (UTC)
- This is not a good interpretation. Always assume copyright if you cannot prove PD (COM:PRP). Buidhe (talk) 02:01, 15 March 2024 (UTC)
- Hey, I don't often edit on Commons. I just saw the removal from the enwiki article and queried as you were the editor who tagged it for deletion. I'm trying to find the information that'd properly challenge this, but 1) this isn't my area of expertise, and 2) most of the source material is in German and I don't speak it. I was hoping that this might prompt you to run a quick check of your own. Sideswipe9th (talk) 02:12, 15 March 2024 (UTC)
- Since the photographer was a professional, I don't think we can rely on any unofficial or non-artistic photograph copyright exceptions. The only reason I would accept for keeping it was if there was evidence that his heirs have released the photograph under a free license. In my experience working with historical European photographs, that is really unlikely, and not worth the time to investigate further. Buidhe (talk) 02:16, 15 March 2024 (UTC)
- Sure, but the official copyright exception for published works is 50 years after it's first published, and not 70 years after the photographer's death. Römer was a photojournalist so it's not unreasonable that they published it somewhere. That sounds like it is worth at least a brief investigation, but the language barrier is proving prohibitive for me to have any luck here. Sideswipe9th (talk) 02:20, 15 March 2024 (UTC)

- This is not a good interpretation. Always assume copyright if you cannot prove PD (COM:PRP). Buidhe (talk) 02:01, 15 March 2024 (UTC)
- I've found what may be the original on the Prussian Heritage Image Archive (source), according to their copyright page images that are under copyright protection will indicate in the image preview's description what the copyright is. As far as I can tell, there's no copyright listed in the description, or anywhere else in the metadata on the archive's website for this photo. I think the original might be PD.

Hi,
Could you zero the graph? It's misleading for it to look like criminalization's dropped nearly 100% when it's actually 50%. Kwamikagami (talk) 19:58, 6 April 2024 (UTC)
- I would have made it zeroed if it was possible to do so in the interface. Buidhe (talk) 21:52, 6 April 2024 (UTC)
