License tagging for File:Tehran's Nature Bridge.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Tehran's Nature Bridge.jpg. 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.

@TheStrayDog: I really want to help create that article, but I'm sure we cannot go with sites like Nameberry and Namespedia. Those are most probably considered unreliable. I'll look up the web again; let's see if we can find anything good.

@Xerxes2500: First and foremost you need to realize that this is a personal attack. This kind of expressions doesn't belong here.
In Iran, the term nān refers to bread of any kind. The targeted article is about a specific sort of bread developed through some Persianate empires in South Asia. That's why Iran and the rest of the Middle East is unrelated and should not be listed there.
—Rye-96 (talk) 10:31, 3 May 2017 (UTC)

first naan means bread so what does it mean in south Asia water?!!!Xerxes2500 (talk) 14:20, 3 May 2017 (UTC)

second my ancestors were Indian and no thanks Indians have never been a part of Persian Empire!!!Xerxes2500 (talk) 14:22, 3 May 2017 (UTC)

@Xerxes2500: This article is about a type of "leavened, oven-baked flatbread" known as naan, which is a Persian loan word in Hindi and Urdu.
In Iranian cuisine, the term nān simply refers to "bread"—of any kind. Don't you realize the difference?...
And I never mentioned "Persian Empire". Persianate corresponds to non-Iranian empires which were influenced by Persian culture—e.g. the Mughal Empire.
—Rye-96 (talk) 14:52, 3 May 2017 (UTC)

and all breads are called Naan in Iran because all Iranian breads are leavened oven baked Flat bread! also I know more about all kinds of foods than you do ref: food is my major! you cant find any non fermented traditional bread in Iran.Xerxes2500 (talk) 14:59, 3 May 2017 (UTC)

@Xerxes2500: Then again, unleavened breads are also called nān in Iran; because the term nān simply means "bread". And nothing changes the fact that this article is about a type of bread originated within the Indian subcontinent.

Replaceable fair use File:Azadi Tower, Tehran.jpeg

Thanks for uploading File:Azadi Tower, Tehran.jpeg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is 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 this file is not replaceable, please:

1. Go to the file description page 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.
2. On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item 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 (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. -- Marchjuly (talk) 00:34, 5 June 2017 (UTC)

@Marchjuly: When I uploaded this file, there was no free-use image to replace it. Now that we have one, it's alright to remove this file. But according to the same discussion that considers the newly-uploaded file free-use, this file is actually free-use.
—Rye-96 (talk) 00:50, 5 June 2017 (UTC)

Freely licensed equivalent images, etc. are occasionally found after an non-free one has been uploaded and used. Nobody is really to blame for such a thing happening and the non-free image is just simply replaced. Problems only tend to happen when people insist on trying to use a non-free when they really can't per WP:NFCC#1.

As for converting the non-free to public domain, I think there's an important difference between the two files which will need to be resolved. The Commons file is a photograph taken by a Tasnim News Agency photographer, and Tasnim has released all of their own photos into the public domain. The problem with the Commons image was not the copyright of the photo itself, ut the copyright of tower. The Wikipedia file is not a photo; it's an artistic rendition of the tower. Even though the tower cannot be copyrighted, it has to be clearly shown that the artist has agreed to release their work as {{cc-by-sa-3.0}}. The source provided for the image is to a Wikipedia page, which is not helpful at all. What is needed is an explicit declaration of consent from the artist or a link to somewhere online which clearly shows the image licensed at "cc-by-sa-3.0". Without one or the other, the copyright status of the image cannot be verified and it is unlikely the file can be converted to public domain or a free license. You can ask about this at WP:MCQ if you want or use {{di-replaceable fair use disputed}} if you like to dispute the speedy deletion if you feel the file should be kept. -- Marchjuly (talk) 01:21, 5 June 2017 (UTC)

@Marchjuly: Oh, that's right. This file was first uploaded by someone and then it was requested for deletion. Meanwhile, I uploaded this fair-use version out of it; but I should've asked him to leave a comment too.
What if I request for non-deletion of the already deleted original file? Is there any chance of restoring it, without the original uploader's involvement?
—Rye-96 (talk) 07:51, 5 June 2017 (UTC)

That already deleted file was something deleted from Commons. What you can do is discuss this with c:User:Ellin Beltz, the admin who deleted it, and see what she says. Once again, it depends upon the specifics of the particular file. If it was a photograph, then it's possible depending upon whether the photograph is considered copyrightable. Photographs of publically displayed 3D works of art are generally considered to be protected by copyright even when the underlying work itself isn't because there is believed to be some creativity involved in taking such photos as explained in c:COM:PDART#This does not apply to photographs of 3D works of art. Photos of 3D objects are often considered to derivative works and not just a simple mechanical reproduction. If it's anything other than a photo, then you're probably going to need to show that the creator/copyright holder has agreed to release it under a free license or that is public domain for one reason or another. -- Marchjuly (talk) 08:22, 5 June 2017 (UTC)

@Marchjuly: I see.. Then I will leave her a message and try it, cause I think that's a quality image.
Thank you for taking the time to share this.

hello Ryan!

Hey fellow! I made this! look at that and say your comment about the article! I think it's not bad! We can expand it more. So long! The Stray Dog Talk Page 18:18, 24 June 2017 (UTC)

@TheStrayDog:
Oh. I knew you were gonna do this someday. :D
The references aren't appropriate, but let's see if the article can stay and be given some good sources.
Some parts of the article are contradictory, by the way. And listening "Indo-Iranian" as its supposed origin, besides the comparison to the similar-sounding Indian word, would be quite wrong and unnecessary.
I'll try to do a modification on it soon.

for your information

An Iranophobic and Europhobic long term vandal has been actively socking on Iran-related articles. Check the LTA page and also see this for ex. [1] (added a troll content in Persian and English). He is probably active in fa.wikipedia too. Just let you know, as you are also active in fa.wikipedia. 109.173.17.121 (talk) 09:10, 20 October 2017 (UTC)

Agha Mohammad Khan Qajar

Hey Rye, may I ask why you removed this part: "Agha Mohammad Khan is noted for his heavily cruel and rapacious behavior. However, his 18 years of determined conquest and consolidation resulted in Iran finally becoming unified once more, which thus made the country able to withstand large difficulties that occurred in the 19th and early 20th centuries. Agha Mohammad Khan is also noted for moving the capital to Tehran, where it still stands as of today."

@HistoryofIran: Because it contained repeated notes and was undue weight.
Also, "Iran finally becoming unified once more" would give the impression that it was largely dis-unified, which is not quite accurate, since even the de facto autonomous regions in the Caucasus were still part of Iran.
Please sign your post, and compare my last edition to the last edition before me again.
Is there anything specific that you believe we should re-add?
