File deletion

Hi. You deleted File:لما جبريل أثناء تقديم إحدى حلقات بودكاست حكايات مع لما.jpg but VRT has received a ticket for that file. Can you please restore it? Nemoralis (talk) 02:21, 16 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Nemoralis:

Done. Please give the ticket number next time. Thanks, Yann (talk) 15:03, 16 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Files

Hi

Could you see if some files deleted (see tags in my user talk page) could be restaured per February's undeletion request related to Fanta? Panam2014 (talk) 11:02, 16 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Panam2014: These are aluminum cans, not bottles, so I doubt the same rationale could be used. May be you could ask Carl Lindberg? Yann (talk) 15:12, 16 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not an admin, so I can't see deleted files. You can't copy product photos off the web (the photo itself has a copyright regardless if it's a derivative work or not). But for Ets-Hokins not sure a can is much different than a bottle. Question is more if the photo is focusing on the copyrighted expression or not. Carl Lindberg (talk) 23:03, 16 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Carl Lindberg: They are images like File:Fanta grape 325ml can-front PNr°0882.jpg and File:Fanta raspberry 330ml can-front PNr°0853.jpg.

I undeleted some files, and created regular DRs instead: Commons:Deletion requests/File:Fanta 4 (49506388821).jpg, Commons:Deletion requests/File:Thai Fanta (4448806322).jpg. Yann (talk) 13:27, 17 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I think those are fine, though you may have divided opinions among admins who decide things. To me, it's if the photo is trading off the actual artistic expression present, which in that case is not the lettering but the other graphic bits, and not sure that really is. Photos where the logo is maybe off-center a bit makes it a bit more obvious it's focusing on the product and not the logo, but I'd still lean they are fine. There are very few bright lines when it comes to copyright though so there is almost never certainty. Carl Lindberg (talk) 13:30, 17 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Carl Lindberg: Thanks a lot for your input. In view of your answer, I undeleted some files and created a new DR: Commons:Deletion requests/Files in Category:Fanta cans. Yann (talk) 13:49, 17 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Copyright status: File:Perpendicular bisector proof la.svg

Hi, File:Perpendicular bisector la.svg and File:Perpendicular bisector proof la.svg are my first works so I apologize for my error and I beg you to explain how to resolve. Dimitris131 made these images: File:Perpendicular bisector el.svg and File:Perpendicular bisector proof el.svg respectively. Their license is {{PD-self}} , so I pick them and change the greek letters with roman ones because I need them for italian wikipedia. As you can see, I put a link to the original works in "source", but I don't know if it is the right place. Further, I used PD-chart instead of PD-self, because they aren't technically made by me, but author allows changes.

Thank you for the advice. Best regards, Emmanuhel (talk) 16:50, 18 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Emmanuhel: This is in the public domain as simple geometric shape, but you still has to provide a license. I did for you this time. Yann (talk) 17:20, 21 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you so much Emmanuhel (talk) 17:00, 23 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

The block you did

Hello @Yann you blocked an account per request at COM:AN/B. The sock account with the name Beh**chd isn't an appropriate word. That is an abusive word in romanized version of Hindi language. This certainly was made with a malicious intent to mock the community. Maybe vanishing it will work? Shaan Sengupta^Talk 03:13, 22 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

File deleted

Hello Yann, hope you are well. I just noticed you that a file I uploaded was deleted for copyright violation. First, I want to sincerely apologize—it was not my intention to upload content that violated any rules. I was under the impression that it could be uploaded under Fair Use, as it was related to the subject of Jean de Meuron's IMDb page. I do not have contact with the subject, but establish copyright license and would like to know if there is any way I could re-upload the image without violating copyright terms? I would really appreciate your guidance on how to do this properly. Repsjared (talk) 10:24, 22 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hello

Hello Yann, even though I am an unimportant person here on the Commons, I notice all the work you do that keep this place functioning. You do things that other admins don't bother with. With much appreciation, Krok6kola (talk) 12:55, 23 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Commons:Deletion requests/File:Elşad İman uşağı ilə.jpg

You have no business closing this deletion request. You voted on the deletion request and also closed the undeletion request of the same file (speedily closing the request without any chance for discussion). If you do not immediately reverse your closure and allow another administrator to close the discussion, I will bring up this repeated misconduct to COM:AN/U. IronGargoyle (talk) 15:59, 23 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@IronGargoyle: Hi, Why does the deletion of this file seem so important to you (and to others)? This is a good portrait used in two articles, so it is in scope. There is a license verified by a VRT permission. I don't understand your insistence, nor your aggressiveness. First closure by Krd was Kept, and the repeated nomination by Yousiphh without any new argument seems abusive to me. Yann (talk) 16:13, 23 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

They removed the picture from both articles, without explaining why or on what basis. It is clear that the picture adds a special beauty to the article, but who cares about it? Elshad Iman^verified 12:53, 24 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Restored. IronGargoyle's behavior is really disappointing. Yann (talk) 16:12, 24 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

The picture is a terrible vanity picture and it seems you only added the picture to the articles to justify your out-of-process keep. You know you shouldn't close discussions you were involved in, and especially when the discussion is a referendum on your earlier undeletion close. I clearly have a dispute with you here, but if I weren't involved in this discussion and I was uninvolved and saw this sort of behavior from a different admin. I would warn and then block if they persisted in this type of action. Repeatedly closing the same discussion topic in your preferred direction is tantamount to wheel warring in my opinion. IronGargoyle (talk) 22:35, 24 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

You are wrong on all counts. This is a good picture, whatever was the initial intention of the uploader. It is much better than the ones currently used on the articles in English and in French. Then you have no business removing it from the French article, as you are not an editor there, except your personal antagonism. The DR was opened for 12 days, and there is no reason for deleting it. Yann (talk) 06:25, 25 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Yann, The image has copyright and the author is Araz Yaquboglu, a well-known Wikipedia editor from Azerbaijan, and he (Araz Yaquboglu) is not blocked on any project. He (IronGargoyle) removes the image from the article, noting that the user is blocked on 3 wiki projects, but he doesn't understand that he is confusing me with the author of the image, Elshad Iman^verified 07:06, 25 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Yann, I was just wondering if it would be possible to discuss whether this image should be added to the article? since in this case the conflict is ongoing and the image was removed from the article again by the same user. Maybe the wiki community should make a decision so that the person who removed the photo stops doing what they are doing. Is it possible to discuss this issue in the wiki community and make a final decision? Elshad Iman^verified 11:37, 25 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

The last Jew in Vinnitsa, 1941.jpg image

https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:The_last_Jew_in_Vinnitsa,_1941.jpg Hi, this is just a trivial matter, but I noticed the smaller/older version of this image actually has higher detail than the larger one! As such I think that version should be used instead by default. The increased resolution is a complete waste since the image was merely upscaled. It's also more blurry and has worse compression artifacts, so overall the small version is quite a bit better. Pseudoantiquasi (talk) 16:11, 26 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

OK, reverted. Thanks for noticing. Yann (talk) 17:00, 26 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I'm almost ashamed to be nitpicking like that, as the difference between the images is small. In the meantime I did have a look around, to see if there was an even better version somewhere, and I can affirm: there isn't one. This version is the best, and the best ones elsewhere are the same, besides the sepia one of course, which is roughly eqivalent in detail and rightly its own file (here: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:German_soldiers_of_the_Waffen-SS_and_the_Reich_Labor_Service_look_on_as_a_member_of_an_Einsatzgruppe_prepares_to_shoot_a_Ukrainian_Jew_kneeling_on_the_edge_of_a_mass_grave_filled_with_corpses.jpg

Thanks for all your efforts! Pseudoantiquasi (talk) 12:11, 27 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

File:Kissing the War Goodbye.jpg

I took a stab at its restoration. Seeing as how it's on your list of favorite photos, how'd I do? JayCubby (talk) 18:34, 26 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@JayCubby: Sure. If you want to restore it, please go ahead. Yann (talk) 18:35, 26 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I already restored it, what are your thoughts on what I did? JayCubby (talk) 18:36, 26 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@JayCubby: Ah yes. I misunderstood you. The restoration is good, but it is much darker. Do you have a reference for the light? Yann (talk) 18:41, 26 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I restored the image from the NARA TIFF if my memory is not failing me. I pushed the exposure up, I think it's closer to the previous version now. JayCubby (talk) 19:10, 26 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@JayCubby: Ah OK. Fine then. Yann (talk) 19:12, 26 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Undeletion request

Hello @Yann, I do not know if there is a formal way to appeal the undeletion requests, so I hope I do not come as rude here. I do not agree with your decision not to undelete File:ALBERTO NÚÑEZ FEIJÓO.jpg as it goes against the precedent with Flickr images coming from official party accounts. Why is a VRT needed for this precise one when the common practice is to assume that the photographers have granted permission to release the image? If we were to be consistent, thousand of this kind of pictures should be deleted from commons. For instance, you have the official PP accounts of Madrid, Cantabria, Melilla and the EPP. I expect that if the file was reuploaded to commons, an eventual DR would result in the file being kept based on previous precedent. Basque mapping (talk) 19:36, 29 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Basque mapping: Hi, In the other cases, all images on Flickr are under a free license. In the case of File:ALBERTO NÚÑEZ FEIJÓO.jpg, all other images are "All rights reserved". So I wonder why only this picture was released under CC-0. Yann (talk) 19:40, 29 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks @Yann, I appreciate your rapid response. Now I will try to make a timeline of events around this image:

1) 9 May. Photographer Diego Puerta unveils a formal portrait of Feijóo he made two months before [1]. A self-described photojournalist, it seems however that in the last months he has been working for the PP, as all of the photos he has published in Twitter suggest [2]. It may be argued that the latter is not a proof of Puerta working for the PP, but upon a quick research in Google, there are dozens of newspaper crediting his photos in the format "Diego Puerta/PP", suggesting he works for the party [3][4][5][6][7].

3) 14 May. User Vaqueroj uploads the image to Commons [9] saying it comes from https://www.pp.es/alberto-nunez-feijoo-3 (recently the website was renewed so I was not able corroborate that claim). This user has been quite inactive, emerging from year to year. His edits record makes me believe they is somehow linked to the PP, which would explain why they inexplicably re-emerged to just upload this image and add it to the Spanish Wikipedia article.

4) 14 May. @LMLM marks the file as having no permission [10].

5) 19 May. The Flickr account of the PP changes the license of the image to CC0 [11]. Perhaps, someone warned the PP that they had to give permission for the use of the file and so they decided to change the license. I do not really know exactly what happened here, but the sequence of events suggests they deliberately licensed this image as CC0 in order to use it on Wikipedia.

6) 22 May. After seemingly no one contested the no permission claim, the file was deleted. Apparently no one realised the existance of the Flickr permission. Basque mapping (talk) 21:53, 29 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Basque mapping: I think that Commons:Deletion requests/Files uploaded by Deva1995 is a similar case. I am waiting for the outcome to decide what to do. Yann (talk) 18:26, 30 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
