* Hi Hammersoft,

I received your message in my mail box regarding the certification of the original author of the image File:Burj Khalifa.jpg [[File:Burj Khalifa.jpg|10px]]. My Wikipedia user name is [[User:Donaldtong|Donaldtong]], and My Wikimedia Commons user name is Donaldytong (https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Donaldytong) , which is my real name Donald Y Tong. I am the original author of this image File:Burj Khalifa.jpg [[File:Burj Khalifa.jpg|10px]]. I cannot remember which license I used when I uploaded this image to Wikimedia Commons in November 2012, but I think I used license {{Self|GFDL|Cc-by-sa-3.0-migrated|cc-by-sa-2.5}}. This license is what I generally use when I contribute my photos to Wikimedia Commons. Here is an example, [[File:(UAE) The Dubai Fountain at Dusk 02.jpg|40px]]. The photo of File:Burj Khalifa.jpg [[File:Burj Khalifa.jpg|10px]] would use the same license as this image when they were uploaded to Wikimedia Commons during the same period/time in November 2012.

Please let me know whether my above statement met your requirements for the certification of the original author of the image File:Burj Khalifa.jpg. Regards [[User:Donaldtong|Donaldtong]] ([[User talk:Donaldtong|talk]]) 10:39, 16 August 2014 (UTC)

  • Delete. On the description pages, the uploader wrote "Evidence: The license statement can be found online at: http://jennifercarroll.com". The statement on that website reads "Copyright © 2013-2014 Jennifer S.Carroll. All rights reserved." It's hard to see how that's supposed to be read as evidence of a public domain release. -- Asclepias (talk) 15:49, 15 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • This file was previously listed here (see discussion). However, that discussion was regarding the issue of Freedom of Panorama, and the inherent usability here on en.wiki. That is not the issue I raise here. The concern I have is the image is sourced to a file that no longer exists on Commons. The original source identification is lost. Without it, we have no means of ascertaining if the author of the image has in fact released the issue under the cc-by-sa licenses indicated. There are two copyright issues at stake here; the issue of FOP addressed in the earlier PUF (and cleared) and the issue of the rights of the author of the image. We can not ignore the author's rights. This image is slated to become the picture of the day in November. We need to clear this up, and properly assert the source of the image and the proper copyright status if it can be ascertained. If it can't, then regardless of its status as a featured picture, it would need to be deleted. Hammersoft (talk) 20:58, 15 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Note: I have notified the person who may be the author of the image to help clarify this issue. See Commons:User_talk:Donaldytong#w:File:Burj_Khalifa.jpg. --Hammersoft (talk) 21:04, 15 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
