File:Narva mnt 78.JPG[edit]

Why did you delete this file if 7 days since tagging hasn't passed? Original uploader is active on Estonian Wikipedia and was notified, so there is a good chance that we'll have explicit source information by Thursday. Pikne 13:27, 1 September 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Uploader found it suitable to remove the problem tag without adding source information. Jcb (talk) 13:31, 1 September 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

I don't think this justifies ignoring the 7 day deadline set in deletion policy. I now notice your warning to original uploader. Indiminating warning in place of guidance on how to provide proper source information does not seem healthy at all. Not to mention it's hard to provide this information now that file is deleted ahead of time. Pikne 13:48, 1 September 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Nope, we are not going to babysit the problem tags. This user is not a newby, they have almost 9k edits. Simply removing a problem tag is very disruptive. The admins are busy enough without such behaviour. Jcb (talk) 13:55, 1 September 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Then just revert the tag removal. Ignoring the 7 day deadline is still a policy violation.

Also, it may very well be that among other edits user just haven't dealt with {{own}} declarations directly in wikitext (rather than via upload form) and doesn't know what exactly do we want from him. Pikne 14:09, 1 September 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

No, they just removed the tag, nothing more. And they have spent more than sufficient time at our projects to know that this is not accepted behaviour. And reverting tag removal is rather pointless, because most of the time this results in an edit war with the uploader and also we have better things to do than keeping track of files where an uploader tries to prevent deletion by removing the problem tag. Jcb (talk) 14:13, 1 September 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Having dealt with similar issues on Estonian Wikipedia over years, I know that not all people get simple instructions equally well and it's necessary to be more patient with some people.

Anyway, I'll take this to undeletion requests then. Pikne 14:17, 1 September 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Well, thanks a lot for wanting to waste the time of even more people over this. Jcb (talk) 14:32, 1 September 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Deletion of Xxxx01_-_Peter_Worsley_Oceania_gold_medal_-_3b_-_edited.jpg[edit]

I uploaded this image to Wikimedia Commons using the upload template that I have used for literally hundreds of images that have been licensed through the Australian Paralympic history project. I have just noticed today that you have removed this image from Commons. I have also just noticed that you have deleted another image. Can you please explain how these images have been any different to the many other images I have uploaded and what changes I need to make to re-load them so that they can be used in WP articles? Thank you! --Tony.naar (talk) 06:18, 3 September 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Albacore submarine[edit]

File:Sous-marin Albacore soufflerie Langley.jpg

Hello Jcb. This Picture of the Albacore is not a personnal work. Its source is the NACA, obviously. I only crop it. In fact I don't know how to do in such a case (cropping a Royalty-free picture) but I would like to learn ! By now, I am far from my house and of my computer, and with a very poor access to Internet. I will take care of that problem in some days but it is possible the fateful date will be passed. I specified some informations on the file. Another picture of the NACA is possible : https://npgallery.nps.gov/GetAsset/2d6108b0-4ef6-4151-a5f5-5a646bf24bed, but it is less beautiful and educational. Friendly, --Bernard de Go Mars (talk) 17:23, 3 September 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

@Bernard de Go Mars: I removed the deletion template so you may have time to indicate proper source and license. If you need help, just ask. -- Ariadacapo (talk) 18:24, 3 September 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Merci Ariadacapo ! Je suis loin de tout et surtout de mon ordinateur où doit se trouver l'image d'origine (un très grand format dans une grande définition, que j'ai recardé). Ce que je trouve curieux c'est de ne pas trouver cette image d'origine dans mes recherches sur Google (de plus mon recadrage doit empêcher la recherche d'image de Google). Peut-être l'image en question souffre-t-elle elle-même de problèmes de droits à la NASA-NACA. Ce serait curieux... Amicalement, --Bernard de Go Mars (talk) 19:36, 3 September 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

I have tried to trace the image back to a NASA source, but I could not find it. Proper source and license information must be provided. I have started a regular DR, that may give you some more time than a no source tag, but as long as this is not fixed, it's inevitable that the file is nominated for deletion.

My maps[edit]

Did you look at what you deleted? Here's the timeline for File:United States Central map 1780-03-00 to 1780-10-25.png:

August 28: Castillo blanco (talk · contribs) adds a no-source notice dated August 28.
August 28: I add a source.
September 3: Castillo blanco readds the notice WITH THE DATE OF AUGUST 28.
September 4: You delete it.

You have erred in deleting these four maps; I would undo it were I not the one who made them. I insist they be undeleted, as Castillo blanco's tagging was out of process and very poor form, and we were still discussing the matter. --Golbez (talk) 16:52, 4 September 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Request made here: Commons:Undeletion_requests/Current_requests#Files_uploaded_by_Golbez --Golbez (talk) 16:57, 4 September 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

As I explained that COM:UDR and at User talk:Castillo blanco, not Castillo was at fault. You removed a problem tag from some of your own uploaders without resolving the problem. That was out of process. Jcb (talk) 20:40, 4 September 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

The problem was resolved, the files are my own work. That they relied in some basic sense on public domain maps of non-copyrightable geography does not change that. You want me to go back ten years and find what public domain representation of non-copyrightable information I used, and source that? No, that's nonsense. --Golbez (talk) 21:38, 4 September 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

@Golbez: I want you to be honest in the source information. You claim own work, which is not true. Jcb (talk) 14:27, 5 September 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

By your requirements, nothing counts as own work here. Everything in history is derivative of something else. --Golbez (talk) 14:41, 5 September 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

You admitted yourself that you traced these maps from existing maps. If you don't tell so in the source field, you are lying. Jcb (talk) 14:49, 5 September 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

I've opened a discussion at COM:VPC. --Golbez (talk) 15:07, 5 September 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Continuing over here: So he places the template, I add a source, and then seven days later the file gets deleted regardless of the template being there? So one person - Castillo blanco - gets to decide if my file is valid? My opinion is irrelevant? Cool, cool. So the template states, "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." Since it is well established by COM:DW that maps of this type aren't copyrightable, the copyright status was 100% clear. The template was placed incorrectly, and you acted on it without even paying attention to what you were doing. --Golbez (talk) 13:18, 6 September 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

@Golbez: The point is, you did not add source information but you removed the tagging anyway. If by tomorrow the source fields do not contain at least a discription of what you did (tracing of PD map), then I will nominate the files for deletion. You could do this in five minutes instead of wasting hours of the time of several people. Jcb (talk) 16:32, 6 September 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Pardon, I did add a source. Previously, there was no source at all. I added one - they are self-made. That you think that's insufficient doesn't change the fact that I added a source, and that the marking of them as derived material - despite the template specifying that the reason for this is because of copyright - was incorrect. --Golbez (talk) 17:43, 6 September 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

It's a broken link that appears in our maintenance reports. If you choose to have your user page loaded from Meta, an eventual redirect has to be at Meta as well. Jcb (talk) 12:43, 7 September 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Ah, I see. So it is not possible to have links from my old username go to my new username unless I manually change the links or have a local username page? Pbrks (talk) 13:06, 7 September 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

I wouldn't think that a redirect on meta would redirect locally on other wiki sites. If it does, that's awesome; if not, I'll just make a local page here and readd the redirect, no big deal. Thanks for your help! Pbrks (talk) 13:20, 7 September 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

you deleted this file because there was "No OTRS permission for 30 days". I see an OTRS permission was apparently received, because Krdbot added {{OTRS received}} on August 10th.

Deletion of official correspondence from MIVILUDES[edit]

I have a question about something I uploaded. I received an official letter from the Secretary General of MIVILUDES, a French Government Agency, ref. SB-MVL/2018A/2669. In France all such documents produced by the Government are in the public domain. Therefore I think it's permittable to add it to Wikicommons.

Hi! I noticed that you recently deleted an album cover for the album Liz Phair, which I had uploaded. I wanted to upload the image since I think that there is a rule that album covers with parental advisories should generally be avoided if a version without the P/A exists.

Now, when the image was deleted, I was in the process of updating the image's description with the help of this template: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Non-free_use_rationale_album_cover

Whenever I would click on "Show preview", the page looked... broken, I think. No table with the necessary information appeared on the page. I'm not exactly sure what I did wrong, so I wanted to ask you if you have any information that could help me make the template "work"? I apologize for the awkward wording, but I have no idea how to describe this.

Thanks! EnjoyingMyProblems (talk) 19:42, 19 September 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Wikimedia Commons does not allow Fair Use, please see COM:FU. You can upload such a file locally at English Wikipedia. Jcb (talk) 19:45, 19 September 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Undeletion[edit]

Hi! You deleted a bunch of pictures I uploaded to Commons (for example) that were in the Category:Photographs from davecskatingphoto.com with OTRS pending, without notifying me. All the pictures from this website are actually covered byt the ticket 2008012510003504, whose number I linked on the pictures. Only an OTRS can then change the authorization (I asked @Kvardek du: to do it for weeks but they seem to have computer problems). Can you please undelete all these pictures, which are actually OTRS-approved? Thank you very much. --Harmonia Amanda (talk) 12:59, 20 September 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

That's practically all the pictures that were in Category:No OTRS permission since 10 September 2019, hundreds of them... --Harmonia Amanda (talk) 13:10, 20 September 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

I see no new messages in the ticket that could have triggered any action by an OTRS agent. Generic permissions need a permission template or a message should be sent after each upload, otherwise the files won't get approved. I will see if something can be arranged. Jcb (talk) 15:02, 20 September 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

I actually discovered Template:Davecskatingphoto.com only today (when I found the duplicate category and merged it). Would it work? An OTRS (Kvardek du) confirmed to me very clearly that all the pictures from this website can be uploaded and I spend hours working on the pictures you deleted without even warning me. --Harmonia Amanda (talk) 15:33, 20 September 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

You uploaded the files with {{OTRS pending}}, this is a delayed deletion nomination that will always lead to deletion if nothing happens. For new uploads please use {{Davecskatingphoto.com}} instead of OTRS pending. I will see if I can sort this out, but probably not today. Jcb (talk) 15:39, 20 September 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Commons:Deletion requests/Files in Category:Yoda[edit]

Hi!

You deleted only one week after they were proposed the pictures in Commons:Deletion requests/Files in Category:Yoda. Some of these pictures should not be deleted, like File:Exposição no Museu de Astronomia e Ciências Afins no Rio 03.jpg which was taken in Brazil or in Portugal (I can't know where exactly, the picture is deleted) where the freedom of panorama is allowed for 3D artwork which was the case here. Please put these pictures back, and please do not delete them only one week after they are proposed (I was in vacation when they were proposed and deleted, I could not do anything...).

The user Yuraily Lic only does deletion requests, but he does a very bad work and he does not check if the freedom of panorama can be applied, he just put the same sentence in every request "COM:DW of copyrighted character." like a robot... He does too many deletion resquests, I can't check every request to see if the pictures are good or not, if the freedom of panorama can be applied or not. It is his job when he does a deletion request and yours when you delet the pictures. But none of you did their job for the files in the Yoda's category.

Something needs to be done, Yuraily Lic must be stopped, and the administrators who work on his deletion requests must be vigilant by checking every pictures he proposed.

The Special Barnstar

Sorry to hear of your desysop,

You were a fantastic admin and certainly didn't deserve to be desysopped especially over something so silly, Commons is now certainly a lot worse with out you,

Thank you for your admin actions and contributions here and thank you for using your tools to help me (You helped me a lot and I will be forever grateful),

If you ever ran for RFA in the near future I would happily support you,

Anyway I hope you continue to edit here as admin or no admin your contributions are still appreciated here,

Take care, –Davey2010^Talk 19:33, 26 September 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Thank you![edit]

During your long tenure as admin from 2010 until recently (with a break from 2011 to 2013) with more than half a million admin actions you were one of the most active admins. I would like to thank you for this major contribution to Wikimedia Commons. We were very fortunate to have your support. While a workload of this gives naturally ground for criticism and while not all interactions were exactly graceful, I found the end of your adminship not really fair and just. Nonetheless, I hope that you remain with us and I would be optimistic that a rerun for adminship after some time could be successful. It worked before. All the best, AFBorchert (talk) 14:13, 28 September 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Most of the community, even Yann, is well aware that what happened is not just, so why did it happen then? Almost all of you are fully aware that I did not abuse the admin buttons and that I have always used them in a conscientious way. Also many of you are well aware that Yann has been bullying me for several years (and it's obvious from their own RFdA that I am not the only victim) and that they did abuse the admin buttons for that. For the past three years I have actively avoided any interaction with Yann as much as possible, but Yann has looked for confrontation on purpose many times, as e.g. is clearly visible here. Now they have been rewarded by the community for their bullying, they will feel even stronger in their destructive behaviour. A community that is allowing this to happen has a serious integrity problem. As long as the community does not deal with that, I don't understand how you could expect me to start contributing again.

Deletion of: File:Image of Martha Hart.jpg[edit]

Hi, I noticed that this photo was taken down again. The comment to why it was taken down was because there was "no OTRS permission since 31 August 2019". Previously, I had this photo uploaded and an email was sent by Martha Hart herself and the person who took the photo (Lubna A.) to [email protected] giving permission, and allowing the photo to be used on wikipedia. I am not sure why it was taken down then, but when I asked the previous person who took it down, they never gave me an answer so I reuploaded it. Please let me know what is the best way to keep this photo uploaded on the commons. I feel that I have taken the necessary actions in the past but it keeps getting taken down and I find it very discouraging. Should I request for an undeletion or should I re-upload the photo and contact Martha Hart to send an email again? Thank you in advance for your help. --Kgywu (talk) 19:43, 7 October 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Important message for file movers[edit]

A community discussion has been closed where the consensus was to grant all file movers the suppressredirect user right. This will allow file movers to not leave behind a redirect when moving files and instead automatically have the original file name deleted. Policy never requires you to suppress the redirect, suppression of redirects is entirely optional.

Possible acceptable uses of this ability:

To move recently uploaded files with an obvious error in the file name where that error would not be a reasonable redirect. For example: moving "Sheep in a tree.jpg" to "Squirrel in a tree.jpg" when the image does in fact depict a squirrel.
To perform file name swaps.
When the original file name contains vandalism. (File renaming criterion #5)

Please note, this ability should be used only in certain circumstances and only if you are absolutely sure that it is not going to break the display of the file on any project. Redirects should never be suppressed if the file is in use on any project. When in doubt, leave a redirect. If you forget to suppress the redirect in case of file name vandalism or you are not fully certain if the original file name is actually vandalism, leave a redirect and tag the redirect for speedy deletion per G2.

The malicious or reckless breaking of file links via the suppressredirect user right is considered an abuse of the file mover right and is grounds for immediate revocation of that right. This message serves as both a notice that you have this right and as an official warning. Questions regarding this right should be directed to administrators. --Majora (talk) 21:35, 7 November 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Brown Dog query[edit]

Hi Jcb, I'm sorry, I asked this before and didn't follow up. It's about File:Brown Dog on plinth - Battersea Park - 2008-04-09.jpg.

When I asked you what the issue was, you said there had been no valid OTRS release, but why did it need one? The author uploaded and released it himself, as I recall.

I would like to ask you to take part in Google Code-In as a mentor. That would mean to prepare at least one task (it can be documentation related, or something else - the other categories are Code, Design, Quality Assurance and Outreach) for the participants, and help the student to complete it. Please sign up at the contest page and send us your Google account address to [email protected], so we can invite you in!

Restoring an image[edit]

Hello! I notice that you deleted an image (Los Shain's junto a Erwin Flores.jpg) which is free (permission) to use in the country Peru:

According to the Law 13714 (1961), under the administration of the Manuel Prado government, and article 4.3 of the Universal Copyright Convention this photograph entered the public domain in Peru before 1996 because it was taken and performed from negative to paper or similar before 31 December 1975 and was protected for 20 years from its first copy disclosed as of January 1 of the following year.

In the case of copies disclosed for first time since 1976 by other person, D.L. 822 (1996) establishes that the shots made before 31 December 1952 automatically enter the public domain, 70 years after their creation from January 1 of the following year. For more information see the Peru copyright page.

It is understood that simple photograph is when the author did not include exclusively for his/her literary or scientific work. Not apply for reproduction of copyrighted artistic work "of private domain" or documentary work . If the photo is assigned by a publisher, also photojournism, the exclusive rights of circulation by this one are for 5 years without extending the duration. Indicate the name of the author or owner of the photo is necessary with the date of publication.
Warining: D.L. 822 says that some works "enjoying the longest terms of protection recognized by this Law" but denies retroactivity for expired works. A template is necesary explaining why they are in the public domain in the United States.
Exceptions: those published for first time between 1976 and 1996 protection may vary, except those were not renewed in this year and URAA date of 1996 if: the owner was never known or did not carry the "prohibition of reproduction" tag for material published before 1981 (use {{PD-Peru-anonymous}} if required), unpublished media created before 1926 or material from an author who died before 1931 (use {{PD-Peru-1961law}} if required).

In the case of copies disclosed for first time since 1976 by other person, D.L. 822 (1996) establishes that the shots made before 31 December 1952 automatically enter the public domain, 70 years after their creation from January 1 of the following year. For more information see the Peru copyright page.

It is understood that simple photograph is when the author did not include exclusively for his/her literary or scientific work. Not apply for reproduction of copyrighted artistic work "of private domain" or documentary work . If the photo is assigned by a publisher, also photojournism, the exclusive rights of circulation by this one are for 5 years without extending the duration. Indicate the name of the author or owner of the photo is necessary with the date of publication.
Warining: D.L. 822 says that some works "enjoying the longest terms of protection recognized by this Law" but denies retroactivity for expired works. A template is necesary explaining why they are in the public domain in the United States.
Exceptions: those published for first time between 1976 and 1996 protection may vary, except those were not renewed in this year and URAA date of 1996 if: the owner was never known or did not carry the "prohibition of reproduction" tag for material published before 1981 (use {{PD-Peru-anonymous}} if required), unpublished media created before 1926 or material from an author who died before 1931 (use {{PD-Peru-1961law}} if required).

Donkerstraat 32 of 34, Harderwijk[edit]

Hallo Jcb,

In 2010 maakte je File:Donkerstraat 34 - Harderwijk.jpg, maar op de Nederlandse helpdesk meldde iemand dat dit een ander pand was, zie nl:special:permalink/57329409#Foto verwijderen en juiste uploaden. Ik heb dat nagekeken en het lijkt te kloppen, dus ik heb de bestandsbeschrijving navenant aangepast en hernoeming gevraagd. Je kunt mijn handelingen beoordelen als je wilt en mocht je in Harderwijk komen, dan is een foto van nr. 34, van T-Mobile, uiteraard welkom.

Could you upload the pictures that you deleted please? I am the owener of the rights. Why do you delete material that could be for benefit of the others, specially if the holders of the rights do not complain? Besides that, Wikipedia is a non profit digital place whose porpuse is to share and disseminate? Please, replace the pictures.

Hi! In 2017 you deleted this file due to copyright violation, and you put the text "(..) Include in undelete in 2019".

Since we are in 2020, how could the file be undeleted?

Thanks.

JCB, forgive my good faith effort to archive your talk page.

It looked like you discontinued contributions. With the reverts at least we know you are doing alright.

@WPPilot: I am in perfect shape, as you may see here. I am just not very active in Wikimedia projects. If one time I may return to frequent contributions to this project, that's early enough to archive this page. Jcb (talk) 16:19, 22 May 2021 (UTC)Reply[reply]

File:Rictaxis punctostriatus.jpg[edit]

Hi Jcb,

You left me message five years ago saying that the file has no information about where it comes from or who created it, which is needed to verify its copyright status. However, I think I didn't upload this image and probably you noticed the wrong person. I cannot check its history. I might touch the description or something but I don't think I uploaded the image.

File:4726- 008 -® A Bofill (25464967025).jpg[edit]

User:Corachow, who does amazing work on ballet articles on the EN wikipedia, asked me about the Flickr images https://www.flickr.com/photos/premsaliceu/25464967025/ and https://www.flickr.com/photos/premsaliceu/25438811316/. They're professional quality photographs of ballet dancers, but posted from the Flickr account for Premsa Liceu, which is the press office of the Liceu, a Barcelona opera house, 170 years old, and in every way a respectable organization, which I was willing to believe would own the rights to these photos. However she points out that you deleted at least this first one (I can't see it, I'm not an admin, just a Commons:License reviewer, but from the file name it seems very likely to have been this first one) with the comment Missing license as of 5 November 2016. They are licensed Public Domain Mark now. Were they not licensed that way in 2016, or are there some other issues that we aren't seeing? Are they all right for upload now? Thank you! --GRuban (talk) 14:39, 30 June 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Hi Jcb. Can you tell whether File:Bill Gasarch.jpg is the same as the file you deleted in 2017? It's the same file name, but a different uploader. -- Marchjuly (talk) 21:12, 12 September 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

You probably need an admin to answer this kind of question. And no, the files are not the same, the original one was a photo, not a drawing. --Didym (talk) 21:16, 12 September 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Удалены фото с страницы[edit]

Good afternoon. On my father's Wikipedia page, you deleted photos of his paintings. why did you do it? The photos are mine personally! On the Internet, I could post on the sites of art salons or galleries. The photos are taken from the originals, which I own! https://uk.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%A8%D0%B0%D1%80%D1%96%D0%B9_%D0%90%D0%BD%D0%B0%D1%82%D0%BE%D0%BB%D1%96%D0%B9_%D0%86%D0%B2%D0%B0%D0%BD%D0%BE%D0%B2%D0%B8%D1%87 37.73.87.21 18:30, 20 January 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
