License tagging for File:Orfeh image 2023.jpeg

Thanks for uploading File:Orfeh image 2023.jpeg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information.

To add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia. For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 16:30, 25 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

January 2023

Hello! Thank you for your recent contributions to Orfeh. I did have one note for you. I am working on a maintenance project to clean up Category:Pages using infoboxes with thumbnail images. In the future, please do not use thumbnails when adding images to an infobox (see WP:INFOBOXIMAGE). What does this mean? Well in the infobox, when you specify the image you wish to use, instead of doing it like this:

|image=[[File:SomeImage.jpg|thumb|Some image caption]]

Instead just supply the name of the image. So in this case you can simply do:

|image=SomeImage.jpg.

There will then be a separate parameter for the image caption such as |caption=Some image caption. Please note that this is a generic form message I am leaving on your page because you recently added a thumbnail to an infobox. The specific parameters for the image and caption may be different for the infobox you are using! Please consult the Template page for the infobox being used to see better documentation. Thanks!!

Speedy deletion nomination of File:Orfeh image 2023.jpeg

A tag has been placed on File:Orfeh image 2023.jpeg, requesting that it be deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under two or more of the criteria for speedy deletion, by which pages can be deleted at any time, without discussion. If the page meets any of these strictly-defined criteria, then it may soon be deleted by an administrator. The reasons it has been tagged are:

It is a non-free file from a commercial source (e.g. Associated Press, Getty Images), where the file itself is not the subject of sourced commentary. If you can explain why the file can be used under the fair use guidelines, please add the appropriate fair use tag and rationale.
The image appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. (See section F9 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted images or text borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Orphaned non-free image File:Orfeh 2022 NYC.jpg

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:Orfeh 2022 NYC.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 18:29, 28 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nominations with replaceable fair use for multiple files

A tag has been placed on the affected files listed below, requesting that they be deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under two or more of the criteria for speedy deletion, by which pages can be deleted at any time, without discussion. If the page meets any of these strictly-defined criteria, then it may soon be deleted by an administrator. The reasons they have been tagged are:

They are non-free files from commercial sources (e.g. Associated Press, Getty Images), where the file itself is not the subject of sourced commentary. If you can explain why the files can be used under the fair use guidelines, please add the appropriate fair use tags and rationale.
The images appear to be blatant copyright infringements. (See section F9 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted images or text borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your additions will most likely be deleted. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the pages concerned and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Thanks for uploading the files listed below. I noticed that the files are being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way they are being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe the files are not replaceable, please:

Go to the file description pages of the affected files and add the text {{Di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}} below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing <your reason> with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
On the file discussion pages of the affected files, write full explanations of why you believe the files are not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the non-free media items by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification, per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

List of affected files

File:Orfeh 2022 NYC.jpg — Image fails Wikipedia's first non-free content criterion by uploading an image with a subject where a free alternative exists -- see File:Orfeh singing in Make it Fair.jpg.
File:Orfeh at the premiere of "Spirited" held at Alice Tully Hall on November 7, 2022 in New York City.jpg — Same reason as previous.
File:Andy Karl, Olivier Awards, London.jpg (Replaceable fair use only) — A free alternative of this image may exist: A photograph of the subject may currently be freely taken.

A Wikipedian has been blocked before by re-uploading the same file after it was previously deleted on the grounds of CSD F9. In addition, the administrator that deleted your earlier upload has been notified. You have been warned. Ntx61 (talk) 08:02, 29 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@EurekaLott: One question: Was by any chance File:Orfeh image 2023.jpeg, which you previously deleted, re-uploaded as any of the first two files that I nominated? Ntx61 (talk) 08:06, 29 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

In addition, you might want to check their upload logs before taking any serious actions (such as the one I described in a warning to them). I only discovered the remaining three after you deleted File:Orfeh image 2023.jpeg. Ntx61 (talk) 08:21, 29 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

File:Orfeh 2022 NYC.jpg and File:Orfeh image 2023.jpeg were copies of the same image. Please let me know if you notice this pattern of copyright violations continuing, @Ntx61. - Eureka Lott 16:21, 29 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
