Hi. To be honest, I thought that the photo I requested for deletion was bad. This photo and the new linked photo were both taken by me. So did I go to the trouble of going out again to take a new photo for nothing? Petro Stelte (talk) 15:23, 13 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Can't verify OGL license. https://www.liverpoolcityregion-ca.gov.uk/ says (C)

Gbawden (talk) 11:17, 13 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The uploader pointed out that OGL is mentioned at https://www.liverpoolcityregion-ca.gov.uk/privacy-policy but it leaves me even more confused. LCRCA material may only be used for own non commercial use - then goes on to say content is available under OGL.

Unless expressly stated the copyright and other intellectual property rights (such as design rights, trademarks, patents etc.) in any material provided on this website remains the property of the Liverpool City Region Combined Authority (LCRCA) (or as, the case may be, another rightful owner). LCRCA-owned material on the website, including text and images, may not be printed, copied, reproduced, republished, downloaded, posted, displayed, modified, re-used, broadcast or transmitted in any way, except for the user’s own personal non-commercial use.

@Knowledgework69: Please comment here instead of my talk page

I take this to read that it is only available for non commercial use as it was explicitly stated. The last line only would apply if no copyright claim was made. Gbawden (talk) 13:59, 13 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Gbawden which part of the OGL waiver are you confused about? thanks Knowledgework69 (talk) 14:24, 13 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

To my understanding and interpretation of the OGL these images can be used an distributed on Wikipedia as it does not count as commercial use, exemptions for the OGL not applying to government released files and imagery can be found at https://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/ Knowledgework69 (talk) 14:26, 13 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Commons cannot host files with a non commercial restriction. You may be able to upload them to WP as Non free files but we cannot host them here. I don't believe that the OGL applies to these files but I think we need a 2nd opinion Gbawden (talk) 14:30, 13 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I would agree a second opinion would be good, however as it is government entity which states it adheres to the OGL for content on their website, and it does not fall under the OGL exemption which are outlined on the national archives website linked above. I believe it will be covered under OGL .

exemtions of the OGL are as follows:

---------------

personal data in the Information;

Information that has not been accessed by way of publication or disclosure under information access legislation (including the Freedom of Information Acts for the UK and Scotland) by or with the consent of the Information Provider;

departmental or public sector organisation logos, crests and the Royal Arms except where they form an integral part of a document or dataset;

military insignia;

third party rights the Information Provider is not authorised to license;

other intellectual property rights, including patents, trade marks, and design rights; and

identity documents such as the British Passport

The King’s personal copyrights, and those of previous monarchs – these fall outside the scope of The Keeper’s authority under Letters Patent Knowledgework69 (talk) 14:36, 13 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

due to this information being accessed by publication, appearing on a news post posted by the LCRCA, I believe it would fall under OGL Knowledgework69 (talk) 14:36, 13 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I would like to acknowledge that the Combined Authorities copyright waiver is poorly worded however them stating as a government entity that they adhere to the OGL states they will follow the rules and exemptions of the OGL which allows for information such as this to be distributed.

This aspect should be addressed on the projects. The file is currently in use on the projects (article de:Springeberg), so it has to be maintained. @GerritR: you could consider to add {{Fact disputed}} to the file page, or one of the other more applicable warning templates listed on the template description.

Even if seen on fire.ca.gov, which is PD? Sir MemeGod ._. (talk - contribs) 15:29, 13 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Cal Fire-produced content may be PD, but if I am not mistaken the hosting (with credit) of non-PD content on their website does not make that content PD. I'd like to see someone else weigh in so that I can be sure I'm interpreting it correctly. — Penitentes (talk) 15:40, 13 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I think you’re right @Penitentes; there is a similar discussion going on right now about National Weather Service images and as @Rlandmann has pointed out there; the NWS a federal government agency has hosted copyrighted stuff without unambiguously declaring it so. Hurricane Clyde 🌀^{my talk page!} 17:27, 28 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Question What makes you think that material on fire.ca.gov is PD? --Rlandmann (talk) 19:28, 28 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

{{PD-CAGov}}. The Department of Forestry and Fire Protection is not one of the agencies listed which can claim copyright. WeatherWriter (talk) 19:46, 28 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

PD-USGov? It's a government website, since obviously the ".gov" didn't say. Sir MemeGod ._. (talk - contribs) 19:47, 28 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Also see WeatherWriter's comment above. Unlike the NWS hassle, USGov material is 100% PD, no "oh, we actually meant this when we posted the disclaimer". Sir MemeGod ._. (talk - contribs) 19:48, 28 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Question Can it actually be copyrighted? It is a CCTV camera and despite them saying it is CC no Commercial 4.0, is that legal? Asking more or less because of {{PD-automated}}’s reasoning which requires the camera to have human input. WeatherWriter (talk) 17:09, 13 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I think if it were my opinion; precautionary principle would prevail. WestVirginiaWX (talk) 17:58, 13 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
If it falls under PD-AUTOMATED, it isn't precautionary principle. Sir MemeGod ._. (talk - contribs) 18:19, 13 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The cameras are not human-controlled, and automatically move at specific intervals (from what I know). With this in mind, my vote stands as keep per PD-AUTOMATED.Sir MemeGod ._. (talk - contribs) 18:19, 13 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The cameras are by default either stationary or swiveling. However, first responders are able to log in and control the cameras—pointing and zooming them—at will, and so any time the camera is pointing at a fire it is usually because it has been intentionally commanded to do so. It's not clear to me whether that allows it to fall under {{PD-automated}}. Additionally, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Threshold_of_originality#Pre-positioned_recording_devices suggests that the question of whether automated camera imagery is uncopyrightable "remains untested in the United States". — Penitentes (talk) 18:46, 13 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
They were swiveling, the smoke plume was only visible for about 3 frames of the footage, before swiveling exactly 90-degrees to I believe the left. Kind of hard since I can't reaccess the footage due to the passage of time. Sir MemeGod ._. (talk - contribs) 19:03, 13 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This photograph was found on a National Weather Service website and attributed "Photo courtesy of Jim Reed" -- https://www.weather.gov/ict/event_2010gianthail and there is no evidence that Reed transferred his copyright into the Public Domain as the uploader claims.

Furthermore, note that it bears a watermark that says "© Jim Reed Photography" Rlandmann (talk) 16:46, 13 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Closing admins should familiarise themselves with the evidence and discussions at this RfC when closing this request.

Keep Again this falls under the NWS submission rules that submitting a copyrighted image has it become public domain. Every image was once copyrighted, even the ones I release into the public domain/creative commons/Flickr Commons/Wikimedia Commons. One of my digital cameras boilerplate stamps my name and date and the copyright symbol, which is in the metadata, but I am releasing under a CC license. --RAN (talk) 17:29, 13 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The NWS has had multiple, conflicting submission rules over the last ~20 years. We have no way of knowing which (if any) of these this particular image was submitted under. A partial list can be found at A3 in this DR. Two more have been uncovered in the 4 days since I compiled that list. --Rlandmann (talk) 21:54, 13 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Just a heads up @Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ): , while we have almost always agreed on these type of deletion requests, this is actually a copyrighted image. See my delete statement below. This is a rare instance of NWS hosting copyrighted images, which they do and are allowed to do. WeatherWriter (talk) 01:00, 14 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete — The image came from this NWS webpage, which has a disclaimer button, which links users to the National Weather Service disclaimer, which states, “The information on National Weather Service Web servers and Web sites is in the public domain, unless specifically annotated otherwise, and may be used freely by the public.” For the clause of “specifically annotated otherwise”, NWS either allows the user to add a copyright “©” watermark to the image {as seen in this image, hosted on this NWS webpage} or by directly adding a copyright statement using “©” {as seen on this NWS webpage: difference between the “Tornado Photos” and “Damage” tabs}. As seen on the image hosted on the NWS web server, it does have a copyright © watermark. That disclaimer is linked at the bottom of all three of the NWS webpages linked above (one for this one + 2 I used as examples). As seen, this image should be deleted as it is copyrighted. This is exactly what the “unless specifically annotated otherwise” clause is for. WeatherWriter (talk) 00:58, 14 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Strong Delete per @WeatherWriter. This has a copyright watermark on it; even if the PD-NWS rationale was still valid (which it’s not), it would need to be DR’d. WestVirginiaWX (talk) 19:22, 14 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
This approaches (but not quite reaches) copyvio territory. WestVirginiaWX (talk) 16:12, 17 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per nomination. Even if it did not have the copyright symbol on the webpage, we cannot "trust the NWS" on its status - commons requires explicit licensure, not implicit/third party. Berchanhimez (talk) 23:04, 15 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Closing admins should familiarise themselves with the evidence and discussions at this RfC when closing this request.

Delete -- the rationale expressed in {{PD-NWS}} doesn't stand up to scrutiny, but that's irrelevant here anyway because that template specifically applies to files hosted on an NWS server (per the template itself!), which this isn't. The link appears to be dead to me right now, so I can't appraise whether a different PD or free-license rationale might apply.

File:Tushka, Oklahoma tornado April 14, 2011.jpg

The NWS credits this image to Gabe Garfield and Marc Austin -- https://www.weather.gov/oun/events-20110414 (multimedia tab) and identifies it as originally published on w:Reed Trimmer's YouTube channel here.

There is no indication at the original source that the footage this image is captured from is in the public domain, and we have no evidence that its creators ever relinquished their rights in permitting the NWS to use it.

At different times, various regional offices of the National Weather Service have held contests or other public outreach exercises that have made release into the public domain a condition of participation. However, there is no evidence that connects this particular image with any one of those initiatives. Rlandmann (talk) 22:17, 13 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Closing admins should familiarise themselves with the evidence and discussions at this RfC when closing this request.

Keep — According to the National Weather Service disclaimer linked at the bottom of the webpage, “The information on National Weather Service (NWS) Web pages are in the public domain, unless specifically noted otherwise, and may be used without charge for any lawful purpose.” This webpage was made by the National Weather Service of Norman, Oklahoma (NWS Norman). NWS Norman has previously published webpages which show what “unless specifically noted otherwise” indicates, which is a direct copyright (©) statement or watermark. For example, see the difference between the “Tornado Photos” and the “Damage” tabs of this NWS Norman webpage. In those, the images which are copyrighted contain a statement with “©”, while those on the “damage” tab do not, but rather contain “courtesy of …” statements. That is exactly what this image is tagged as: “Photo courtesy of Gabe Garfield and Marc Austin”. Based on NWS Norman’s track records along with the NWS disclaimer, this image is in the public domain.

The strange notion that "a direct copyright (©) statement or watermark" is the one and only valid form of a specific notation is something that User:Runningonbrains simply made up all by themselves. There is no reason why an attribution needs to be in this specific form in the US (post 1989 anyway). --Rlandmann (talk) 01:01, 14 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I should probably mention that “Courtesy” means, “ behavior marked by polished manners or respect for others” Your entire part of “we don’t need any attribution for PD images” goes against what NWS is doing: showing respect to others. Just saying. WeatherWriter (talk) 01:06, 14 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Where have I ever said that? But it's irrelevant from a copyright and licensing standpoint anyway. The effect of "Courtesy..." is a specific notation that attributes authorship of the image to someone outside the NWS. So although we can reasonably presume public domain status for practically every unattributed image we find on weather.gov, as soon as we see those words, that reasonable presumption disappears and we need to look for evidence that the named author released their work into the public domain. Indeed, for any image created in the US for just over the last century, the presumption shifts to "under copyright" unless we can find proof to the contrary. No such proof has been produced in this case. --Rlandmann (talk) 01:22, 14 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per @Rlandmann. WestVirginiaWX (talk) 19:23, 14 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per PRP. Anyone who wishes to reach out to the photographers themselves to obtain explicit permission (to VRT) should feel free to, as always. The NWS is not the definitive source on whether an image is copyrighted or not and the mere fact they did not mark it as copyrighted does not mean we can "take their word for it".

Conditional delete - This can be uploaded on English Wikipedia under the “Non-free video screenshot” license since it’s a screenshot from a video. ChessEric (talk) 05:47, 24 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comment — NOTE: The NWS general disclaimer can 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) 11:37, 3 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
