==Protecting my file==
I am the author of the article http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Government_Physical_Education_College,_Dhaka and the image File:Government Physical Education College, Dhaka.jpg . Already I have given necessary licensing information. Anyway, How can I protect my file from speedy deletion process? Could you say me please , again, Sir?

Thanks for your message. The image in question was tagged in an article which I was in the process of writing when Marasmusine unjustifiably deleted it. I'm waiting for him to restore the article and thereby the image's lineage. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jmu2108 (talkcontribs) 15:08, 5 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Mad eraser man

I think this guy is nuts or just trying to reduce the quality of Wikipedia. Didn't your mother tell you that it's better to build than to destroy? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mr. Mephistopheles (talkcontribs) 15:07, 2 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Are you nuts?

I removed the speedy from Media:GautamiPutraSatakarni.jpg. Are you serious? I'm astounded that you think that money that is hundreds of yeas old would be copyrighted. Theresa Knott | Hasten to trek 22:36, 25 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

File:Hammer-mme myou.jpg

Dude, I really don't understand what info you're looking for. The process is too complicated.

Essentially, the image is a screen cap I took from a DVD. My understanding is that there's no problem using a screen cap to illustrate the work profiled on the page. I don't know how to explain that. You realize that I uploaded it more than three years ago? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mr. Mephistopheles (talkcontribs) 08:13, 27 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]


I don't understand. Please explain how coins that were used hundreds of years ago could still be copyright today and need a fair use rational? It makes no sense to me. Theresa Knott | Hasten to trek 22:24, 26 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

If it's that old, feel free to change the license Sfan00 IMG (talk) 22:26, 26 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
But why are you even tagging things for deletion in the first place? The coin template states very clearly that it may be copyrighted, not that it is, so blanket tagging of all coins without a FUR for deletion seems foolish to me. Theresa Knott | Hasten to trek 22:32, 26 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
It is not inconceivable that an image of coins a hundred years old could require a fair use rationale. For example, it appears that the Irish government claims a perpetual copyright on Irish currency, even for coins and notes issued before the copyright act went into effect. File:GautamiPutraSatakarni.jpg does not say how old the coins are and does not even say what country issued them, so it is entirely possible that it will need a fair use rationale. That said, I agree that tagging for deletion immediately is pretty hasty when the images may well be in the public domain. —Tim Pierce (talk) 14:53, 27 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Has your account's behaviour really improved since then? Andy Dingley (talk) 00:33, 27 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Not much it seems, if anything it has gotten worse. For instance I wonder which part of Ansbachdragoner‎ has not edited in over a year, doesn't Sfan understand. At least malfunctioning bots can be shut off. --R.D.H. (Ghost In The Machine) (talk) 11:46, 27 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

You consider images without an FUR acceptable? If it bothers you so much that seemingly abbandoned accounts get agged,

get the FUR policy changed. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 11:49, 27 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I prefer old school WP:IAR to FUR. Besides, it takes too long to change policy. I'd rather see the likes of you banned first, THEN change it.

File:DemetriusIElephant.jpg and old currency image deletions

Read the licence.

Now this isn't a great licence, I admit, but our convention seems to be to use it. The problem is that it's actually a multi-licence, with an implicit but unclear selection. The licence claims to be applicable to "old currency" (which is easy to check) and it makes no claims regarding such issues as the Irish perpetual copyright claim (so that's easy to "check" too, because we just don't bother). The drawback is that items licenced under it may be under _either_ PD _or_ fair use, and the licence as tagged just doesn't state which. Obviously if the item is under fair use, it needs FURing.

Now the problem is that this licence isn't automatically processable. A 'bot (or a robotnik like Sfan00 IMG) can't tell if it needs a FUR just by looking at it. At this point, it's necessary to play IP lawyer and judge which of the licence components it's being licensed under. This is a PITA for checking, but I can see how the situation arose, as it allowed a lot of currency images (Irish too) to be tagged easily and correctly with this licence tag.

If you want to check for FURs on things that need FURs (and you don't want to perform disruptive edits), then it's then up to you to determine which of the mutli-licence terms is being applied here. It is wrong to request FURs (on pain of deletion) for those which are legitimately using the PD expression within this licence. Andy Dingley (talk) 22:32, 27 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

RFC/U

Has anyone got the time (I seriously don't) to haul this whole sorry mess off to RFC/U ? (re Commons edits too) It needs doing, we're going to be losing legitimate content before long. Andy Dingley (talk) 22:33, 27 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Another dud tagging for deletion this morning. I don't know about you guys, but I can't keep up with this. Andy Dingley (talk) 22:36, 27 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
That one is noted as a mistag, It was resolved in the edit subsequent to the one you note above, but why let the facts get in the way of a complaint? Sfan00 IMG (talk) 10:08, 28 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
There are loads of mistags. Thanks for fixing this one, but each one you tag still creates work for others to have to check it - even if you then change it afterwards. Andy Dingley (talk) 10:27, 28 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
If you'd also like to provide a detailed list of specfic media you think may have been 'mistagged', I'm more than prepared to give them a second look Sfan00 IMG (talk) 10:21, 28 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hi,

Do rationales have to be put in a special field? I'd appeciate any guidance and have raised questions at Wikipedia:Media_copyright_questions#sheet_music_examples. Sparafucil (talk) 01:02, 28 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]


Fair use rationale for File:Hb 42.50.8.jpg

I believe that I uploaded that from a public use source about 3 years back. I haven't a clue nor do I care in the least if you delete it.Tirronan (talk) 03:15, 28 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hmm

I don't much mind if you and Andy Dingley edit was over tags. However, when you leave three messages about the same file on someone else's talk page as a result of edit-warring, that's not acceptable. Angus McLellan (Talk) 23:16, 28 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Noted, That seems to be a side effect of using TWINKLE to tag (which is NO excuse), Thanks for letting me know :) Sfan00 IMG (talk) 23:19, 28 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I uploaded this file on enwiki deliberately, rather than Commons, because it was enwiki-specific, for use in a Village Pump discussion. (Not that I particularly mind it being moved to Commons; it just seems more appropriate on enwiki). You should probably tag the two older statistics images for moving too, if you think it's a good idea to move them. (I'd be interested to hear your reasons for the move, incidentally; not annoyed, just curious.) --ais523 19:40, 29 October 2010 (UTC)

File:Diane-Arbus-1949.jpg fair use rationale

Would you mind suggesting exactly how you would want to see this rationale expanded? It says pretty much everything the guidelines ask for - the original author of the work, the copyright information, why this is claimed as fair use, etc. --Jashiin (talk) 20:08, 29 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Since apparently you're either unable or unwilling to explain your edits (you have blatantly ignored my query and then continued to tag files I uploaded with "short rationale" notices - how am I supposed to fix the files if you, the person who had a problem with them, refuse to explain the problem?), I'm going to remove the notices you put, until you can provide a rationale for your edits. If you continue adding those things without explaining your edits, I will report your actions as disruptive behaviour. --Jashiin (talk) 11:56, 2 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Well, firstly, an apology for not responding more quickly. What you need to do is epxand the rationale so that each point of WP:NFCC is covered. If that's already done then by all means change the {{Short-Rationale}} to a {{Standard-Rationale}}.

Please note {{Short-Rationale}} isn't a deletion notice, and that was for a specific reason, namely that to tag it as a DFU would have been even more 'disruptive'. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 12:04, 2 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for replying and for looking at those images. I'm sorry if my reaction was over the top, it's just that I've seen some tag conflicts before that weren't pretty, and the delay kind of made me assume this was going the same way. I'll see what I can do about satisfying the standardized rationale format requirements. Thanks again! --Jashiin (talk) 17:06, 2 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
BTW On a side issue, It's a shame mediawiki can't typset musical notation directly like some other systems (for example TeX)

as it would be invaluable for music related articles. It would also be very useful in transcribing some musical works on Wikisource. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 17:27, 2 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

File:DressLooksNice.jpg rationale

You do realise that it probably took you as much time to nominate File:DressLooksNice.jpg for deletion as it would have done to put a rationale? Non-free artwork for a music release has a very well established history on wikipedia. You can actually save yourself time by using a simple Audio cover rationale, instead of spending a few minutes of your life creating a nomination and deletion discussion which will also use up others time for a slight of policy which presents zero threat to anyone. SFB 23:59, 29 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I'm well aware of that, but thanks for the reminder. BTW it's not actually used for the main infobox but a subsiduary one.. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 00:03, 30 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Audio excerpt fair use rationale

You have tagged File:Hamlet opera-Act1Sc2 Ombre chère 6bars 26of605sec trk13 CD1 EMI7548202.ogg with the Template:Short-Rationale. It is not clear to me what kind of additional information you are looking for. Do I need to quote on the file's description page the passage in the article which comments on the audio excerpt? Or do you think the commentary is insufficient to justify fair use? --Robert.Allen (talk) 22:01, 31 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Click the 'Edit' tag on the Image Description page and amend the license to something appropriate. The flag image IS 'fair-use'

though, so you'll also need to add in some information as to why it can't be replaced with a 'free' image. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 14:07, 1 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Reply about image

I got it off Wikipedia, which has it sourced. I altered it from observing the AMPAR (or maybe it was NMDA receptor) receptor image in the AMPA receptor article, I believe. I manipulated the red diamond, put in a green diamond, and I'm too fucking busy to describe this since you should be intelligent enough of a Wikipedian to notice that I sourced it and there are various linked articles that could give you an example of where the image came from. --Cyberman (talk) 06:24, 2 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

ALL image on Wikipedia need a source, and when tagged the image that the above comment relates to did not apparently have one.Sfan00 IMG (talk) 10:16, 2 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
It's not my fault that you are uneducated and do not know how to find the correct sources for things; Wikipedians hold multiple jobs. Some make images and attempt to attach the right source; others who hold domain over particular parts of subjects can relate sources when the wrong source is presented. You apparently do not hold domain very well over a neurobiology section. You were suggesting a decent image, contributed by an intelligent member was deleted. That was foolish. It took more time for me to make the image than find the source. I don't think you are qualified to even hold dominion over those cellular biology sections. --Cyberman (talk) 19:17, 7 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Sfan,

Sure, will take care from now on - for now, I see that you have added the creative commons license to the image. So, can I remove the disclaimer put there? From the next time, I shall be careful about images uploaded on wikipedia...

RE: File:Gauloises sticks.jpg

This image is currently marked as being 'fair-use' although you indicate it's your own work.. I don't see anything in the image tha would make this un-free, Perhaps you could clarify your reasoning for marking it non-free? Sfan00 IMG (talk) 13:58, 25 October 2010 (UTC)

The 'fair-use' is in relation to the visible logos which are copyrighted however it is also my own work with regards to the photo it self. As I understand it, both classifications apply though maybe I misunderstand. Is it not required that if a picture contains logos of copyright material that it be labeled as such but can be used if there is no free equivalent and there is minimal extent of use? David Rogers (talk) 21:23, 2 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks, You've quoted policy directly back at me! It might be worth making it clear which part of the image is free/non-free

if it's not already. IIRC someone else may have considered the logos as 'textlogo' which leads to a slightly different interpratation of the rules, because in the US certain forms of 'text-logo' aren't always considered 'original' enough to be copyright anyway Sfan00 IMG (talk) 21:28, 2 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

You tagged the map as a candidate to be moved to the Commons. It has been deleted off Commons for falling outside of the educational scope of that project back in March. Just because something is freely licensed and hosted on the English Wikipedia does not mean that it is automatically a candidate to be moved to the Commons. In fact, in the time that the map was nominated for deletion, I had uploaded a new version of it on Wikipedia to keep it updated on the progress in the County Challenge contest. Please evaluate the content of the image before tagging them to be moved. If there is no possible usage in other projects, don't tag them. Imzadi 1979  12:00, 3 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

P.S. You should read file description pages more carefully. This edit tagged a photo as a Commons transfer candidate. It's PD in Canada, but as the template lower says, it's not PD in the US, so it can't go to Commons. For it to be PD in the US, it needed to enter the PD in Canada by 1996. It only entered the PD there at the beginning of this year. Imzadi 1979  00:03, 9 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Feel free to de-tag accordingly then :) Sfan00 IMG (talk) 00:04, 9 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hi,
I dont understand why did you put a template "short rationale" on my images such as this one. I am French, and I had difficulties to understand the problem of "no-Fop in France", but a US guy helped me : no free image available, real use... What is missing ? I thought I add all necessary informations. Thanks. --Tangopaso (talk) 22:01, 3 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

File:Register renaming:tag indexed scheme.png (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs); adding the information template is fine, though as source information is missing this ought to be sorted out before moving to Commons (I found no matches on TinEye but if the uploader does not identify a source then it probably should be marked for deletion or, as it is a simple illustration, replaced with a new originally designed SVG version).
  3. No problem.
  4. No problem.
  5. There appears to be a duplicate File:Corticosterone.png vs. File:Corticosterone (1).png, there probably is no benefit in having both versions. No other issues as the source is clear.
  6. File:Dlr-crittercountrymap.GIF (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs) - with no source and no author this probably should be marked as PUF (though I find no matches in TinEye) unless replaced with a re-drawn original alternate.

Conclusion: You may want to make more use of TinEye and checking for duplicates on Commons before marking for move to Commons. I would also suggest not marking any image as suitable for a move until the source information is added. Cheers, (talk) 15:45, 9 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

OK. Thanks for the feedback. I am planning on trying to add {{information}} regardless of Commons-ability...

Overzealous Image Tagging

Please do read the full image descriptions before making deletion nominations. If you do so, you'll see that the following images that you tagged for deletion were released into the public domain by their creator, and that the contact information of that creator was available in case clarification was needed. If you find the licensing information to be confusing, then feel free to contact the image's creator to clarify before wasting time with deletions that will have to be undone later.

Thanks for the feedback, I hope the permissions on those images have now also been sent to the relevant OTRS queue? Sfan00 IMG (talk) 15:59, 9 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
The permissions on those are as they were. Since you seem to understand the permissions process better than I, feel free to take whatever action you feel is necessary to get the official ducks in a row. Nathan McKnight -- Aelffin (talk) 16:41, 9 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

*sigh*

Please don't template the regulars. You're being a dick, man.

File:NoPromises.jpg

Hi, you asked me to provide a better source for this image. I saved it from iTunes when I bought the single as a digital download, but it's since been replaced by User:MatthewWaller and I don't know the source for that image. He failed to update the source. So you would have to ask him. AnemoneProjectors 15:10, 11 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
