Image copyright problem with File:Statue in front of legion of honor.jpg

Thank you for uploading File:Statue in front of legion of honor.jpg.

This image is a derivative work, containing an "image within an image". Examples of such images would include a photograph of a sculpture, a scan of a magazine cover, or a screenshot of a computer game or movie. In each of these cases, the rights of the creator of the original image must be considered, as well as those of the creator of the derivative work.

While the image description page states the source and copyright status of the derivative work, it only names the creator of the original work without specifying the status of their copyright over the work.

Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the original image. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

If you have uploaded other derivative works, consider checking that you have specified their license and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. Thanks again for your cooperation. Kelly ^hi! 14:44, 6 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

User:Kelly see section Licensing Photos were uploaded in 2006 before Wikicommons was used -Cs california (talk) 18:30, 6 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi - I'm afraid it has nothing to do with Commons. Wikipedia requires a license tag for the depicted artwork as well as for your photograph. Please read the message above. The same applies to File:Holocaust Memmorial Legion of Honor.JPG as well. Kelly ^hi! 20:09, 6 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

User:Kelly still do not understand what it is about. The author is dead what is wrong with my photo when other works of the author do not get the same tags? (eg. File:The Holy Family Resting 2.jpg, File:Abe-Lincoln-on-Horseback.jpg). Also other photos on commons of the same work which also have been featured pictures are not tagged. What makes mine different? and what do you want done? --Cs california (talk) 20:43, 6 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Kelly: Cs california has a point. The statue was made in 1921 [1], and therefore is no longer protected by U.S. copyright, like all works which predate 1923. Beyond My Ken (talk) 20:49, 6 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Beyond My Ken: Thanks for researching that - it appears that this statue was cast in 1927 and put on public display at the museum in 1937. In that case the license tag for the statue would likely be either {{PD-US-no notice}} or {{PD-US-not renewed}}. Kelly ^hi! 07:42, 7 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, the statue is a copy. It was originally made in 1921, and the version in San Francisco was cast from the mold in 1927. That's no different from a book copyrighted in 1921 being reprinted in 1927: the copyright coverage has now expired because of the 1921 copyright date, and the printing date is not relevant. Beyond My Ken (talk) 07:45, 7 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, thanks. Any idea when/where the statue was originally publicly displayed? That's considered the date a 3D is "published". Kelly ^hi! 11:45, 7 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I'll have to do a little research on that. Back to you later on today. Beyond My Ken (talk) 13:31, 7 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

OK, it seems as if I was wrong about the date. Aside from the one source I pointed you to, which gave 1921 as the year of creation, all other sources agree on 1927 as the date for the statue's first installation in Seville, Spain. The book Energy and Individuality in the Art of Anna Huntington, Sculptor and Amy Beach, Composer says specifically that she made the first sketches for the piece in 1923. [2]. So 1927 would be the copyright date, so the license tags you specified -- {{PD-US-no notice}} or {{PD-US-not renewed}} -- would indeed appear to be the applicable ones. Beyond My Ken (talk) 14:05, 7 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Cs california: Question - are you the photographer of the photos of the Legion of Honor that you uploaded? The image description pages don't say. Kelly ^hi! 06:19, 8 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Yes that was before wikipedia had usable templates for filling that stuff out -Cs california (talk) 09:42, 8 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

UCSF project

Hi! I am currently revamping the UCSF project. I created lots of pages and added a lot of content, but there is so much still to do. I saw that you are part of the SFBA task force, so I thought you might be interested and I wanted to invite you to collaborate once more. In particular, we need to add content, do maintenance, and we really would benefit from pictures, so if you are in SF and could help that would be great.

Authority Control

The authority control is mainly used for books, as it provides links to library databases. It can be used for people who are authors, or sometimes for famous individuals who are likely to have a standard subject listing in library databases. For biological taxa, the equivalent template is {{Taxonbar}}. --EncycloPetey (talk) 00:45, 11 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Richard Ovenden

Hi, in this edit, you inserted the claim that Ovenden's citizenship is American. There is no mention of this claim in the article and it is not given a reference. in fact, the article mentions him growing up and spending his education and career in the UK. Why did you choose that citizenship? I've taken the precaution of removing the statement but do put it back if you have a reliable source. Thanks in advance for any clarification, MartinPoulter (talk) 10:16, 7 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

If you want to change it go ahead--Cs california (talk) 02:15, 8 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Phimenes flavopictus

Hi, quick request–I understand that this species has the (ambiguous?) synonym Phimenes flavopictum, which is what it's called on the Wikimedia Commons category. I don't know much about wasp phylogeny-would it be possible to get some explanation on the page of this and why/if flavopictus is preferable? Blythwood (talk) 03:45, 24 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

See the reference if you think the other name is correct just move the page and redirect it with an reference that is more up to date --Cs california (talk) 05:30, 24 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

differences

I am not sure when an article has been designated specifically in lead sentences and other parts of the article you are adding a link that is not as specific as the article? Is there some reason? JarrahTree 05:15, 1 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

What are you even talking about?--Cs california (talk) 06:33, 1 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

your edits - Buddhism on Tibetan Buddhist items - is like adding 'christian' to catholic info boxes. JarrahTree 07:37, 1 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

perhaps if that is problematic -

Tsurphu_Monastery in the article - the lead sentence and the information box very specifically refer to Tibetan Buddhism - to add extra info in the info box with 'buddhism' is possibly over-stating the case with a wrong entry? Tibetan Buddhism items in most wikipedia entries make a distinction because of the general cultural differences from 'Buddhism' per se. JarrahTree 07:47, 1 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I didn't add anything to the lead sentence at all. I am just basing my edits on the closest option in Template:Infobox religious building section Religious Affiliation. I did not see Tibetan Buddhism in the options. Adding something there is still better than nothing. If you want to change it go right ahead no one is stopping you. --Cs california (talk) 10:03, 1 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I have already, wow - trust your new year is ok for you - I still dont think you understand what I was trying to say - Editing inside tibetan buddhist articles with something just buddhist has nothing to do with options - simply a cultural misnomer. cheers JarrahTree 14:15, 1 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I understood you were trying to make them all tibetan buddhist because they are more specific and more prominent than a sect. Edits were not based on opinions I am working off the template to fill out the information since tibetan buddhism was not really implemented into the template when they merged the separate Tibetan Buddhist Monestary infobox over a year ago. So the closest thing in the documentation of the Religious building infobox was Buddhism. But I put in a request to have it added and properly colored automatically to the template here which would prevent this error from reoccuring --Cs california (talk) 01:54, 2 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hmm, from my observasion Cs california is not wrong in this case. If you type Template:Infobox Tibetan Buddhist monastery, it will redirect to Template:Infobox religious building. How and why did it happen? Well, we need to trace back to the discussion regarding such merger of the infobox, so probably that is for JarrahTree to look after if he/she thinks this should be done the other way around. Of course probably CS california is not really the 100% expert in this Tibetan Buddhism topic, but at least he/she has followed the appropriate steps in determining the infobox for the article (expanding/improving the article). If I were him also, I would firstly look into the Wikipedia:List of infoboxes page first and find the closest one to the article (basically the same). Since the Tibetan Buddhist monastery infobox is not there anymore, then I will chose the one step up (the 'parent' topic infobox of it), which is the Religious building infobox. Chongkian (talk) 08:04, 2 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Because several of the infoboxes were merged in a while ago. I refrained from editing anything in that category for at least a year before it got completed. Someone also needs to take a bot and rename the deprecated fields such as `location_country` and `pushpin_map` --Cs california (talk) 09:58, 2 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

thank you both for explaining all this all so civilly - thanks JarrahTree 10:59, 2 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I added a couple more comments on the issues with the templatebox merge here and did some proposed edits to the coloring to revert to what the previous colors were. Hopefully some of the points get fixed --Cs california (talk) 11:04, 2 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
