Files in Category:FC Torpedo Moscow
[edit]Possibly above COM:TOO Russia#Logos which is unclear. Two of these files are licensed as {{PD-art}} but I think that license too needs to be verified.
Jonteemil (talk) 18:49, 11 August 2024 (UTC)
- I've found an archived page[1] of the given source in File:Logo torpedo.png, but all it seems to say is that the club took on the name "Torpedo" in 1936, but not that it's the time that the logo came to exist or that Вячеслав Орлов (Vyacheslav Orlov) was the author of the logo. This website does state that the logo was created in 1936. And this site names Orlov as the author (however, this source might not qualify as a reliable source). Orlov died in 1995 according to Russian Wikipedia[2]. This doesn't sound like the PD-art license is justified. Nakonana (talk) 22:51, 20 August 2024 (UTC)

Photo of a photo. COM:PCP 186.173.86.199 22:26, 11 August 2024 (UTC)
- The file description says that the photo was taken in the Beyond Reality Galerie, which is located at Schlüterstraße 70 in Berlin [3]. The Exif data of the file give the coordinate location of Schlüterstraße 12-16 in Berlin. According to Google Maps the distance between Schlüterstraße 70 and Schlüterstraße 12-16 is six meters (or 19-20 ft)[4]. Why should one take a photo of a photo when the subject of the photo is standing right next to you..?

- Das Problem ist, wie auch beim Foto von Wolfgang Petrick, der im Foto zu sehende Teil der urheberrechtlich geschützten Werke der jeweiligen Künstler. Ein solches Foto braucht zwei unabhängig erteilte Lizenzen, um hier veröffentlicht werden zu können: Eine vom Fotografen (die du als Urheber beim Hochladen erteilst) und dazu eine zweite Lizenz der jeweiligen Künstler als Rechteinhaber der Werke für deren Abbildung im Foto. Das Vorgehen zur Erteilung der Erlaubnis durch die Künstler hat dir Rosenzweig oben verlinkt. Vor einem neutralen Hintergrund wären beide Fotos mit nur deiner Lizenzierung als Urheber verwendbar in Wikipedia, so sind sie dies leider nicht. Uschoen (talk) 17:54, 18 August 2024 (UTC)

"Image courtesy of NFL.com" Magog the Ogre (talk) 00:24, 27 November 2010 (UTC)
- Comment: See the licensing template, which specifically addresses "courtesy of" images hosted on National Weather Service servers, stating in part:
“ | "However, the NWS sites also host non-NWS images which have been submitted by individuals: these are generally shown as "Courtesy of ...". Such images have explicitly been released to the public domain by the copyright owner as part of the upload process...The information on government servers are in the public domain, unless specifically annotated otherwise..." | ” |
- Thus, this image became public domain once it was hosted on National Weather Service servers without a specific copyright notice. An example of images hosted on National Weather Service servers that have their copyright held can be found here, with the annotation shown. The page hosting this image has no specific copyright annotation, only the "courtesy of" tag referred to in the licensing template. Ks0stm (T•C•G) 04:45, 27 November 2010 (UTC)
- OK I withdraw then. Magog the Ogre (talk) 05:04, 27 November 2010 (UTC)
- Keep per Ks0stm. /Pieter Kuiper (talk) 17:12, 2 December 2010 (UTC)
Kept. Jim . . . . Jameslwoodward (talk to me) 21:16, 11 December 2010 (UTC)
The last deletion request of this file in December 2010 was withdrawn on the basis of the wording of the {{PD-NWS}} template, which we now know to be flawed. (See this recent DR for details.)
But this image in particular is credited by the NWS to NFL.com. The original image can be found here (you might need to click/swipe through to image 20/20 to find it.)
Unsurprisingly, the NFL's copyright policy is long, detailed, and restrictive. The version in force at the time this file was uploaded to Commons is archived here and says (among very many other things):
"We own or license all copyright rights in the text, images, photographs, video, audio, graphics, user interface, and other content provided on the Services, and the selection, coordination, and arrangement of such content (whether by us or by you), to the full extent provided under the copyright laws of the United States and other countries. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, you are prohibited from copying, reproducing, modifying, distributing, displaying, performing or transmitting any of the contents of the Services for any purposes, and nothing otherwise stated or implied in the Services confers on you any license or right to do so." (emphasis mine)
Without any evidence of permission where the NFL transferred their copyright of this photo into the public domain, we can't keep this file. Rlandmann (talk) 13:06, 11 August 2024 (UTC)
- Keep: (1) This is not an NFL photo. Per NFL.com, this is a photograph by the Associated Press. So the NFL.com copyright rules do not apply, meaning the entire deletion reasoning does not even apply to this image. (2) According to the archived disclaimer at the bottom of the webpage where this image originates, NWS states, “ The information on government servers are in the public domain, unless specifically annotated otherwise.” For the “unless specifically annotated otherwise” part: if/when copyrighted work is provided to the NWS, they appropriately make it known that it is copyrighted (example, see the “Tornado Photos” tab of this NWS webpage). In short, this is a public domain photograph and the previous deletion request regarding {{PD-NWS}} should be upheld. WeatherWriter (talk) 14:55, 11 August 2024 (UTC)
- No, look again. If you scroll through the 20 images in the gallery on the NFL website, you'll see that the various images in there are credited to a variety of different sources, including the AP, the NFL, and various individually named photographers. This image is number 20/20 in the carousel, and is specifically credited "NFL". FWIW, during my research, I also checked the AP archive, but it isn't in there. (Not that we can assume that ever AP photo ever is in there, but for this image, it means that there's nothing there that contradicts the NFL identifying itself as the owner of the photo).
- In any case, we now have evidence that "specific annotation" on weather.gov can indeed take the form of a simple "Courtesy of" caption.
- I'd say that at this point, the onus is on anyone who wants to keep this image to reach out to the NFL and ask them if they ever released this into the public domain. --Rlandmann (talk) 20:57, 11 August 2024 (UTC)
- That is not evidence to me. That is just you trying to disregard precedent in my opinion. Either way, others may or may not agree with me and that is fine. I know it is in the public domain, so that is what matters. Whether the Commons keeps a public domain, free to use photograph or get rid of it is not my problem. I presented my case and explained how it is public domain. Up to the closing administrator in the end to decide, not either of us. WeatherWriter (talk) 21:00, 11 August 2024 (UTC)
Speedy delete; even though it isn’t an NFL photo; it is still an image from a source with a known copyright policy. The Associated Press is still very strict.WestVirginiaWX (talk) 21:30, 11 August 2024 (UTC)- Regardless of whether it came from the NFL or the AP; it’s still copyrighted. The only difference would be who the copyright owner is. My speedy delete vote still stands. WestVirginiaWX (talk) 21:31, 11 August 2024 (UTC)
- This at least comes close multiple criteria for speedy deletion. WestVirginiaWX (talk) 21:35, 11 August 2024 (UTC)

- Do you have any evidence that the Associated Press, a for profit news/photojournalism company, tends to release their photos for hire into the public domain? If you can’t find evidence that they routinely do that, why should we believe that this one was? We don’t get to trust (random commons user) or even an organization like the NWS - unless there is proof the AP (or NFL, if they bought the copyright to it from AP) released it into the public domain, it is not such just because you want it to be and someone who didn’t own the copyright published it online claiming it was.Otherwise, under your ideas, I would be able to take any photo I find anywhere (online or offline) and post it on a website saying “the photos on this website are public domain unless specified otherwise”, and magically make those public domain even if I didn’t own the copyright? Berchanhimez (talk) 20:13, 12 August 2024 (UTC)
- No I don’t. WestVirginiaWX (talk) 23:16, 12 August 2024 (UTC)
- I have zero evidence that they released it into the public domain. None. WestVirginiaWX (talk) 20:33, 13 August 2024 (UTC)
- No I don’t. WestVirginiaWX (talk) 23:16, 12 August 2024 (UTC)
- Delete - enough of a question over its copyright status. Whether it was credited to the AP or the NFL doesn't matter - neither organization routinely releases images they take into the public domain. So absent proof of this image's public domain status, it should be deleted per the precautionary principle. Berchanhimez (talk) 23:40, 11 August 2024 (UTC)
- Keep per WeatherWriter Sir MemeGod ._. (talk - contribs) 17:34, 12 August 2024 (UTC)
- User:Yann deleted it per F1 speedy deletion criterion. This discussion probably needs to be closed since the image is already deleted. WestVirginiaWX (talk) 23:16, 12 August 2024 (UTC)

- Comment When was this photo published? Did it include a copyright notice or was the copyright renewed? If it was published in 1988 without notice or renewal it could be PD per COM:HIRTLE (specifically {{PD-US-1978-89}}). If published after 1 March 1989 it would still be copyrighted (I agree with commenters above that material from AP or NFL hosted by NWS is not automatically PD). Consigned (talk) 22:45, 13 August 2024 (UTC)
- The bigger question first would be whether it was registered with the copyright office within five years. Even if it was published prior to March 1, 1989; it would still be non-free if registered by March 1, 1994. WestVirginiaWX (talk) 23:13, 13 August 2024 (UTC)
- Comment — NOTE: The NWS general disclaimer may be enough to keep the file. A recently closed deletion request for a file under the PD-NWS template was closed as keep with the main keep rational being the NWS general disclaimer. WeatherWriter (talk) 11:38, 3 September 2024 (UTC)
- We are talking about the lawsuit-happy NFL though. Just saying. Hurricane Clyde 🌀my talk page! 05:40, 4 September 2024 (UTC)
- TBH, that shouldn't be relevant. The principle at play is whether we can be sure, beyond significant doubt, that the copyright owner surrendered their rights to the image, not "what can we get away with?"
- That's probably the part that has dismayed me the most about these discussions. Even before I decided to take a close look at this chaos, a doctrine had emerged that "Getty might get mad with us, we'd better respect their copyrights" while at the same time, being quite happy to ignore the rights of less powerful and less aggressive people and organisations, whose images the NWS captioned exactly the same way for the most part.
- It's even more problematic when some of them are small professional or semi-professional photographers trying to make some kind of income out of their images and whom a false public domain assertion here has far greater capacity to harm than the likes of Getty. Legal arguments aside, "can we get away with it?" is a wholly unethical position. (Not directed at you, Hurricane Clyde, but at a way of thinking that has emerged around these images). --Rlandmann (talk) 12:36, 4 September 2024 (UTC)
- I know it shouldn’t be relevant. But I decided to put that statement about the “lawsuit-happy NFL” because WeatherWriter continues to claim that the general disclaimer is enough; which is clearly and unambiguously not the case. Hurricane Clyde 🌀my talk page! 20:32, 5 September 2024 (UTC)
