Anthony Chidiac

Dear Peripitus. I am disappointed that you have deleted article Anthony Chidiac without:

1) Properly looking at the contents of the debate (subject requested debate continue until he returns in mid february)

2) Your allegations are completely untrue

3) You have gone against a consensus of people (some editors and admins) who said to cleanup not delete, again check sources properly please

4) You have sent me a pile of rubbish on my userpage (about copyrighted photos) when e-mails/faxes went direct to wikimedia clearing such images.

5) The Age, Herald Sun, CNN, Today Show, Dave & Kim, Government Publications, Channel Nine, etc etc are all INDEPENDENT and MAJOR Sources in both Australia and the world. The previous two attempts lacked this reference material. I remind you that Wikipedia is a reference of references.

Please reconsider your decision. You have deleted an important person in the digital technology industry without following due process, reading, and ignoring the requests of a consensus of individuals.

Being mindful of your other behaviour here in wikipedia, I will as a last resort ask for a deletion review if you dont seem to understand why I feel that your decision is completely unjustified.

Thanking you in consideration of such.--Cafejunkie (talk) 08:50, 31 January 2010 (UTC)

Request

Hi, i uploaded three images in wikimedia commons which are the exact duplicate of images i previously uploaded in wikipedia. As such, i would appreciate it if you would take the time to delete the wikipedia images. Thanks. The images are as follows:

Thank you very much. If you don't mind, i have one last request! A week ago, i uploaded two images of the Indian-American novelist, Richard Crasta on Wikimedia commons. On my request, he sent evidence of his permission, but an OTRS ticket has not been issued so far. Therefore, i would appreciate it if you would do as required. The images are as follows:
This one too. I uploaded a copy of it in commons a month ago. I forgot to mention this last time. Sorry!

Regarding Images

Hi Peripitus, The images added have been used by various websites and they are commonly spread over the internet and people are using it. If you search google you will find how frequent these images are being used and i have added the common ones and not the rare which leads to copyright violation as if that would be the case then no one would have used it except the copyrighted holder.... Kindly check my point of view before doing so, as i feel by adding it we are giving a realistic touch ( a face to the article of a living person who might be not so known by all of us.).I feel adding image is just giving more value additions to the articles--Suraj845 (talk) 08:24, 16 December 2009 (UTC)

Dear Peripitus, thank you for your very pragmatic approach to the issue. Thank you also for your message. With kind regards, --BF 13:16, 21 December 2009 (UTC).

Concerning Misc27x.jpg

Dear Peripitus, I seem to be losing this argument. The photo of Allan Sandage has been removed, and I still don't quite agree with your arguments. To remind you, this was a photo of Allan that was on a Christmas card, from around 1965 that was sent to me. When I was in charge of a science library, I was informed that if the images were taken before a certain date, around 1965 or so and not otherwise copyrighted and a new copyright filed, the image would be in the public domain. Because of this, I was able to provide photographs of scientists and science experiments that were cataloged in our library if they were old enough. Thus I am still not sure why the photo was deleted. Because of the deletion, there is now no photo of Allan Sandage as a young man (when he made his great discoveries). However, I am so tired of this fight that I give up and will not post any more photos for Sandage. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Puzhok (talkcontribs) 04:07, 22 December 2009 (UTC) Puzhok 02:31, 23 December 2009 (UTC)

Hi Peripitus. I wanted to know why on earth you deleted the photo of Delhi Public School, Sushant Lok on the page Gurgaon. Do you live in Gurgaon or what? Please give me a good reason for this as I am really upset. It is one of the best schools in Gurgaon. For your information, the image was NOT copyrighted as I had taken it myself !!

re: The-Police Outlandos-d'Amour-yellow.jpg and The Police Outlandos d'Amour original front cvr.jpg

hi- while i think yr point, that "The small differences can easily be described with text alone, without significantly impairing reader's understanding", is valid for the yellow variation on the cover, this doesn't hold true for Outlandos d'Amour original front cvr.jpg. the graphic design of this cover is different enough to convey a notably less modern, pop-punky feel. this cover is also holds historical interest for being relatively rare.

Zelluloid

I read what you wrote for the reason why its warranted for deletion but it doesn't make any sense. If im not allowed to post that cover then how else am I supposed to show the viewer the limited edition cover. Look at Kraftwerk's page, it shows limited/alternate edition album covers and there not being deleted or is it another reason what you wrote I can't understand what you said,lol. Please elaborate. Thanks :) —Preceding unsigned comment added by KenshinXSlayer (talkcontribs) 06:42, 3 January 2010 (UTC)

I listed the Limited Edition album cover because that cover features additional songs not on the original album cover and people would know what it looks like although it is very rare to find. —Preceding unsigned comment added by KenshinXSlayer (talkcontribs) 21:33, 3 January 2010 (UTC)

Thoughts on your closure here?

It's not one of the sort you would normally nominate yourself. Jheald (talk) 12:14, 6 January 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for your response. To clarify, as far as I am aware, since February last year you have nominated few if any alternate covers unless they looked very substantially similar to ones already in use -- basically in line with the proposal suggested at WT:ALBUMS, which received buy-in at WT:NFC, that Essentially, an alternate cover that is significantly different from the original and is widely distributed and/or replaces the original passes the criteria for identification. The album cover that has just been deleted was not very substantially similar to the other one shown, it was indeed significantly different, and widely distributed.
As for whether "the debate's conclusion was clear", you're well aware that these discussions are not votes. The submissions from Angus McLellan, Bility, and Rettetest showed no understanding of the policy framework of why we generally show album covers at all -- what the purpose is, and why it is considered to pass NFCC#8 -- and so, per the guidance to Xfd closers, should have been ignored. Jheald (talk) 08:17, 7 January 2010 (UTC)

it seems clear...

About this closing, what exactly makes you think "it seems clear that this was created b a US soldier/employee"? Couldn't it have been done by some war-photo-journalist, for instance? --Damiens.rf 19:23, 7 January 2010 (UTC)

Your opinion would be appreciated

Noting that you did the GA review, I was hoping you would comment on the issue being rased about the phrase "cliff notes" here. Your opinion is respected either way; I just want to see if this review is an anomaly (which I think it is). If you share the reviewer's sentiments, then changes can be made.

No it doesnt make it clear that they be deleted. It says on the website if you read it, that wikiapedia user name JoshCrutchley as fullrights to use this image on wikiapedia. Please read! I am username JoshCrutchley. He states that this is ok!

I dont know what else to do or how to keep them on here. I have full rights as it states and im showing you that under the image agreement with a link.

agazaryan image

hi,

I have been in contact with the manager of Aga Zaryan and requested that he send the permissions email toy wikipedia. This was done (I think) about 3-4 weeks ago. Now I'm not sure what the linkage is like (between permissions and the checkers and all the other dept. it may or may not have to go through) so I just carried on after knowing the permissions have been sent. If I have done something wrong it would be good to know because really this whole process has taken far too long already to be resolved. I'm not angry just a little bored by the ins and outs which invariably mean there is another minor problem which leads to another deletion or mail. Please please help me to sort this out once and for all.

Marta Orlik is not important because I got this image from the management of A.Zaryan who own the copyright. Orlik is the photographer and not the owner. I think this is clear now.

the permissions email (for AZaryan Singing.jpg) was sent by Tomasz Czulak (the manager of A.Zaryan) to permissions in december.

on the image it is stated which permissions I asked Tomasz to request (i know because I completed the template for him, before asking him to send it from his account)

I don't know what else to do...

please help. fizik —Preceding unsigned comment added by Fiziklsean (talkcontribs) 18:18, 14 January 2010 (UTC)


dear peripitus,

as far as I have been led to believe the copyrights of the image are under the control of the Zaryan management so I do not know where to go with this. I will see what I can do, please do not delete anything because I'm working on a solution, unless you have a better idea... ?

(Fiziklsean (talk) 13:19, 15 January 2010 (UTC))

Hi. Please, some thoughts on this closing? There's no verifiable source information and no way to determine if the image is really what it's said to be, let alone it's date o first publishing or license. This problems have not been addressed in the discussion. Why is it that you believe that this image should be allowed to be kept that way? --Damiens.rf 13:42, 21 January 2010 (UTC)

Um, author died c. 1909. Picture made in 1871, and can reasonably assumed for this photographic author to be published during their lifetime given the vast number of published images by them from the same time, if not proximate to the creation date. We seem to have enough information to verify that this is PD. I can't see any way that it is not PD. Note that the local copy has gone as the image is on commons - see http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:1871sujagi.jpg - Peripitus (Talk) 02:41, 22 January 2010 (UTC)

11 Deluxe (Image File)

You had posted something about the image not being properly described for use on Wikipedia, or something. I just logged into Wikipedia for the first time in a while today (didn't realize I wasn't logged in for last three weeks or so and haven't been editing) and see that the image is already deleted. Assuming you have admin. abilities, can you please restore it so I can go ahead and make the changes needed? I thought I had provided the information, so I'd like to take another look at it and find out what I did wrong.

If this cannot be done, I will be reuploading the image because the image does qualify under free media as a JPG is a very low-quality version of the cover that would not be sufficient for reproduction, among other reasons in the criteria required. I will ensure it is listed properly this time around.

Turns out I have other image claims to dispute as well that have already been deleted. The things I miss by not logging in. =/ CycloneGU (talk) 04:54, 22 January 2010 (UTC)

File: Sam-Giancana.jpg

Peripitus, please undelete this file. The prior image showed Sam Giancana handcuffed to a chair and is not the same image. Now, I don't claim to have a complete understanding of the image policy yet, however, I am aware that if there is no free equivalent of an image, a copyrighted imaged can be used in a limited way (example, to provide a photo of an individual on their wiki page (not a userpage ) ). Sam Giancana is dead, and there is no free equivalent, therefore, as far as I know, this image is suitable for use at least on his wiki entry. I won't re-upload the image, but please be aware it was not the same image of him and again, he's dead , so no free equivalent exists of him. Thanks

Naluboutes,NalubotesAeria Gloris,Aeria Gloris 13:23, 26 January 2010 (UTC)


Peripitus, the original image was on commons and it showed Sam Giancana handcuffed to a chair, that got deleted.

Not sure if someone uploaded another image (like the one I uploaded) Either way, there is no free equivalent of his image and as far as I know, even though Wikipedia strives for free (not copyrighted) photos, if there is no free equivalent, it's acceptable to Wikipedia to have it for use in an article, for that very reason. I'm requesting undeletion on that basis, no free equivalent. Check WP:NFC, the policy section. It appears to meet all 10 rationale that would allow the image to remain.

File restored

I've restored File:Zonkers3.JPG, as you gave no reason for deleting it and the current state of the discussion certainly doesn't support it. Nobody was ever even able to point to a Wikipedia policy as a reason. Besides which, they weren't there for deletion; worst case scenario, it's Fair Use. It's listed at possibly unfree files, not files for deletion.

I know a lot of admins use WP:PUF as a backdoor to delete files uploaded by vandals and new users, but that's not the case here. If it's just that it got caught up with a bunch of others while you were cleaning house, I understand. Otherwise, it's poor form to sweep in after almost 3 weeks of discussion and delete it without comment. Kafziel Complaint Department 07:35, 29 January 2010 (UTC)

Regarding Deleted Images - from Pilgrimhawk

Hi Peripitus,

thanks a lot for the note.

just wanted to make few things clear. i began contributing to wikipedia as another volunteer who wanted to do his part.

Regarding images : The images i uploaded earlier( with source mentioned etc...) got deleted...despite my giving all the needed information , the images got deleted. the final resort ( i agree it was immature and unprofessional) to mention it as "own image" ... not with an idea of stealing it , but with the thought that images must be in place. i did if after mentioning it to the individuals profiled on these respective wiki pages . Any way, i assure you that it will not be done the same way again. Will try my best to source the images , but can you guarantee that those images will not be deleted.

i strongly believe that i can contribute my tiny bit to Wikipedia... i find awful lot of topics not touched by wikipedia..and i wish to do what ever i can to enrich wikipedia - this is my sole guiding principle. i request you not to doubt my integrity. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Pilgrimhawk (talkcontribs) 04:57, 1 February 2010 (UTC)

Just wanted to say thanks for your help!

P.S. I did look at a number of the histories; however, it appears I did not go back far enough. I actually caught on to the article when I saw it tagged for "blanking" on the "Recent Changes" page. My first step was to revert the article to its most recent form and then to add the general improvement template (as I was pretty overwhelmed with the scale of whatever was going on.) Unfortunately, 10 of so edits after I posted the improvement template one of the unregistered IP's responsible for several of the disruptive changes removed it.

Both articles are nearly 4 years old all the images ppl did upload (which I advised them not to) where all copyrighted or they didnt know had to put the right information in. I have made requests to wikipedians if they have this photos. However I think it may come down to me contacting various sources for permission I can do this but the issue of proving permission to wikipedia is what i need to be understand how it works.♥Yasmina♥ (talk) 19:47, 11 February 2010 (UTC)

its unlikely an image that way is going to be produced the ones that did before turned out the person pretended they owned the copyright even if they did they filled such poor info it got deleted. Its slightly confusing, so who needs to critea for the photo submission,(i therefore...) me or them (the copyright owner)? thanks for the details so far ♥Yasmina♥ (talk) 21:13, 11 February 2010 (UTC)

Your comment at BLP II

Hi Peripitus:

You wrote, "Support - I cannot see why this is so controversial. We do this for images many times each day. Images with no source are tagged for "speedy deletion" after 7 days and biographical articles can be the same. I have always regarded that speedy-delete refers to the decision process, not the timeframe." You do realize that is not what speedy deletion is? Speedy deletion is wherein somebody can unilaterally delete the article within minutes of it's creation---some do so without any notification whatsoever. What you are describing above, is the PROD option described earlier in the RfC. BLP-PROD deals allows for a 7 day "clean up" period.---Balloonman NO! I'm Spartacus! 17:48, 12 February 2010 (UTC)

Deletion of "Execution in China.jpg"

Hello, the picture "Execution in China.jpg" has recently been deleted. Unfortunately, I didn't have the chance to contribute to the discussion as I wasn't aware that it taking place in so many different places. There was only two replies on the deletion discussion, so I though it woulnd't have been deleted.

Personnally, I think this picture is useful and meet the fair-use criteria because it depicts a mean of execution that still exists in the PRC, and because it's not possible to find equivalent pictures. I agree there are doubt about who exactly is being executed or what she did but then again there are doubts about just about everything that comes from the PRC.

So I would like to ask - do you think it would be fine to use this picture under fair-use and by using a completely neutral (and non-OR) caption? A specialist from the UCL has confirmed that the picture is recent and that the policemen are indeed from the PLA. Moreover, Amnesty recently wrote that some executions are still carried out by rifle. We know that much so the caption could be "Member of the People's Liberation Army carriyng out an execution". Also it's been difficult to track the exact source of the picture, I see no reason to believe it is a fake so hopefully it can still be used for education purposes. What do you think?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lens_conference >> images removed despite providing the documentation

Hi Peripitus,

this is really disappointing my friend.

despite providing valid documents for using the images, the images are removed. in fact the director of the conference himself hasad written giving the permission and that mail was forwarded to permissions-en‐at‐wikimedia.org as suggested. still the images were ruthlessly removed. i fail to understand the rationale here. it is disappointing.

here is the mail with the conference director's contact details as well >>

To whom it may concern,

I am Carlo Vezzoli, professor of Design for Sustainability at the Politecnico di Milano University, Faculty of Design, INDACO dept. I am the head of a EU funded project (under Asia-Link programme) called LeNS, the Learning network on sustainability (www.lens.polimi.it) and with the other project partners I am now organizing a Conference to be held in Bangalore and titled Sustainability in design: NOW! (www.lemsconference.polimi.it).

In this capacity I am glad to officially grant permission to use the web optimized images of our official logos for the Lens conference/ Learning Network on Sustainability wikipedia page. These are the images in context:

Commenting out

When you're "commenting out" (awful term, by the way) images, please remove either the blank line above or below the comment so that it doesn't leave whitespaces in articles. Thanks. - Dudesleeper talk 01:45, 5 March 2010 (UTC)
