Commons:Deletion requests/File:Cameron Rowland giving a lecture at Columbia GSAPP.jpg
{{speedydelete| Subject of the photo has requested this photo to be removed and did not directly consent for the photo to be published.}} GSAPPstudent (talk) 16:19, 23 May 2023 (UTC)
Keep: There is no rule on Commons that stipulates people must consent to photographs of themselves taken in public. If you uploaded this work to Commons and it is indeed your own work, you have released it under an irrevocable free license. Unless you were breaking local laws by making this photograph, I don't see a clear reason to delete it. Per the website for the event this photograph was made at, the event was free and open to the public. Rowland, by agreeing to attend this public event, could not reasonably assume privacy, and their permission is not required to publish this image. I welcome other insights, but I don't think this photo should be deleted under the justification that the person in the image was entitled to privacy at a free public event. 19h00s (talk) 01:00, 14 October 2023 (UTC)
Kept: The subject was speaking in a place open to the public to the US. Will add personality rights to file. --Abzeronow (talk) 17:01, 14 October 2023 (UTC)
Removing speedy delete request made by GSAPPstudent, re-listing as normal deletion request. This image was kept after a deletion request that was closed within the past week. Subject does not need to consent to this photograph being published as it was made at a free, public event. See documentation in previous deletion request (above). Image has been released under an irrevocable free license by the uploader, if it is indeed their own work. --19h00s (talk) 20:51, 17 October 2023 (UTC)

Kept: no valid reason for deletion. --Ankry (talk) 13:51, 18 October 2023 (UTC)
This is usage was not authorized by Cameron Rowland and violates an explicit request to not have any images taken and/or reposted from this lecture. 66.108.48.178 13:51, 26 September 2024 (UTC)
Speedy keep This has been litigated multiple times -- if you have proof that photos weren't allowed at the event, then you are welcome to submit a ticket with VRT. Otherwise, this photo is freely licensed and was made at a free event open to the public, which means there is no valid reason for deletion. --19h00s (talk) 14:53, 26 September 2024 (UTC)
Delete images taken by the host institution require permissions from the participants, and Columbia did not request permission from Cameron 66.108.48.178 16:52, 2 October 2024 (UTC)
- This is a non-copyright restriction and as stated above, you are welcome to submit a VRT ticket. Abzeronow (talk) 17:07, 2 October 2024 (UTC)
- Also, is GSAPPstudent the "host institution?" As far as I can tell, it is a current or former student at GSAPP who attends lectures and uploads images they make at those lectures. Unless that account is actually somehow a formal representative of Columbia, I don't know how any agreement made between Rowland and Columbia would impact the photographer's right to make and upload the image.--19h00s (talk) 20:57, 7 October 2024 (UTC)
Kept: per discussion and comments by User:19h00s. --Wdwd (talk) 15:10, 12 October 2024 (UTC)

Keep Once again (for the umpteenth time), Rowland and/or Columbia are welcome to present evidence to VRT that photography was not allowed at the event. Otherwise, there is no reason to delete this or the other similar photographs made and uploaded by GSAPPstudent. 19h00s (talk) 15:57, 22 May 2025 (UTC)
Kept: no valid reason for deletion. --Yann (talk) 14:25, 23 May 2025 (UTC)
