Similarly to the previous request at Commons:Deletion requests/Invented line number icons, the same uploader uploaded this new "Line 10" icon, in reference to the Hurontario LRT, without any proper authorship and sourcing attribution. While I acknowledge that there appears to have been some physical signage installed and reference to the designation in this seemingly official Metrolinx map, there has been a complete lack of reliable secondary sourcing confirming the line will be officially designated as "Line 10", pending any official announcement by Metrolinx, the authority in charge of the project. Wikipedia is not a crystal ball, and a lot is still subject to change regarding the line's official designation. Furthermore, the shade of blue being used on this file does not appear to match the one on the physical signage and map, and with an absence of authorship and source attribution, it's possible that this file constitutes original research, which is not allowed on Wikipedia. If the "Line 10" designation is retained, then a superior quality and accurate file should be utilized at that time. OrdinaryScarlett (talk) 00:32, 18 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Extremely grainy image with subject hard to distinguish from background. TheTechie (talk) 19:00, 16 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Not a valid reason for deletion; it's completely distinguishable by me, especially given the addition graphics. I suspect the actual reason is more akin "it stops us from using a non-free version on the English Wikipedia", (which the deletion nominator here is essentially arguing at the EnWiki FFD?[2]) which is an awful reason to deprive other Wikipedias without fair use of a free image. GreenLipstickLesbian (talk) 21:49, 16 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Not everything is about the deletion discussion on enwiki. This discussion is completely unrelated to my vote there and genuine concern about whether it is distinguishable enough to have an educational purpose. TheTechie (talk) 22:24, 16 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Opening discussion on behalf of User Graywalls who believes this is not truly CC-0 Revolving Doormat (talk) 07:41, 18 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

On Eric Gilberton's talk page, I asked him to either upload his own work, have someone upload their own work, or point me to a copyright-free photograph. I was pretty clear in my request: [3]
I am not convinced by the evidence presented in the former discussion by Gilbertson's instagram post: [4], which does not credit Andreas Frydensberg, his climbing partner with taking the photo. It could have been taken with a timer and/or a tripod. I have asked Gilbertson outright if Andreas Frydensberg took the photo and I think we should await his answer. Revolving Doormat (talk) 07:48, 18 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I will also say that in looking at the uploads on the K2 post on Gilbertson's blog, including the obvious selfies, they all indicate they were taken with the same device. Revolving Doormat (talk) 08:00, 18 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Previously, a user named Keithgilbertson uploaded the photo, claiming to be his own. Interesting two "separate" people have uploaded the same photo on different platforms citing it to be their own, huh? Graywalls (talk) 15:34, 18 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I don't know what this has to do with anything. I merely said I repeatedly told Gilbertson on his talk page that the photo needed to be something he authored for him to upload or release copyright. There was no evidence indicating that Andreas Frydensberg took the photo on the Instagram link used as rationale in the previous deletion; in fact I found it on a Dutch news article that they both were interviewed for in which they said Gilbertson provided the photo.
Based on his response to my question, he now seems to understand that the author of a photograph is the person who takes the photograph, that he doesn't own the rights to it simply because it was taken by his device. Revolving Doormat (talk) 17:00, 18 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Ping @Graywalls Revolving Doormat (talk) 07:49, 18 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
FYI - Eric Gilbertson has admitted that an unnamed climber took the photo with his phone, thus this should be speedy deleted. Revolving Doormat (talk) 16:57, 18 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Túrelio: , would you please review this? I think the argument of the person who reuploaded the item that had been previously been uploaded and deleted by a different account is not reasonable. You've previously deleted it under File:K2_Eric_Gilbertson_on_summit.png Thank you Graywalls (talk) 15:41, 18 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Per photographed subject's own admission, he is not the photographer. The ownership of physical device is irrelevant, thus this qualifies for immediate deletion under F6. Admission at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Eric_Gilbertson#photos Graywalls (talk) 16:28, 18 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@Graywalls, I found evidence that showed the author of the photo was not Andreas Frydensberg, and no evidence that ever supported the claim that it was in the previous deletion (though it is clear it was not Keith Gilbertson). I also mentioned that it was taken with the same device that took the other photos, including ones he clearly was the author of, thus it could be reasonably inferred that he could be the author and have used a camera timer to take it himself.
I then asked Gilbertson if the photo was taken by Frydensberg. I never argued there was no copyvio, I merely argued it was possible. None of this is unreasonable and I agree it should be speedily deleted. Revolving Doormat (talk) 17:17, 18 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Images marked "own work" but they all appear to be from the web

Adeletron 3030 (talk) 16:24, 4 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  • Rational for deletion is not a good one. Many images from webpages are acceptable. Many of these come from a "Free stock photos" website. Please at least go through a regular deletion process. Krok6kola (talk) 17:09, 4 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Even if that's the case, we need accurate author/licensing information. A general supposition that e.g. "these files probably came from a free stock photo site" isn't sufficient, especially since not all such sites have licenses which are compatible with Commons. Omphalographer (talk) 23:08, 4 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    @Krok6kola But at least some of the photos come from non-free sources. And because the uploader has marked them all as own work, there’s no way to know if they’re really from non-copyrighted sources, so COM:PCP applies until/unless the uploader is willing to actually source their uploads. Adeletron 3030 (talk) 23:20, 4 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

 Speedy delete. This is unambiguously a copyvio; "royalty-free" does not mean "freely licensed". Omphalographer (talk) 22:46, 5 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
There are thousands of images on the Commons that are from a webpage and give no other information. Krok6kola (talk) 18:57, 5 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@Krok6kola But you removed a speedy deletion tag from an image that was taken from a commercial stock image website. And sure, there are probably thousands of images on Commons that are from the web and most of them should be deleted. I don't know why that's a reason for ignoring a pretty textbook case of COM:PCP.

Hello! Thanks for flagging this, Rosenzweig. I borrowed a camera from a colleague to take this photograph, I'm not sure what evidence I can provide for that - paging @Lajmmoore who was with me at the 'Wiki photo booth' at TAG conference! With thanks. Medievalfran (talk) 13:37, 18 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Hello @Rosenzweig - Richard Wallwork is my boyfriend and I borrowed the camera from him, which we used. I took a photo of Fran using the very camera to photograph another person - I can send you directly the google photos link? Lajmmoore (talk) 17:54, 18 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Seeing a photo of the camera won't really be much help, at best one could see it's the same model. Probably the best cause of action would be if you two sent that story to COM:VRT per e-mail, referencing this deletion request, so we have it on record. If VRT accepts that's how it happened, the DR should be closed. Sorry for any inconvenience, but such things are important to us. Regards --Rosenzweig τ 18:35, 18 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
No, it's fine - it didn't occur to us that he'd be on the exif data, so you're right to question it. I'll email now Lajmmoore (talk) 22:02, 18 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Each of these images are cited as "own work by the uploader' (Regenerate (talk · contribs)) but also contain the ISBN link "971-8591-15-X". A search on Google Books yields Talambuhay ng mga bayani at natatanging Pilipino, authored by Renato R. Mateo and published by Arenar Books Marketing in 1998. Being published in 1998 means these drawings or sketches of Philippine statesmen are not yet in the public domain (even if several may have been based on public domain old images). There should also be a proof that Regenerate was a former employee of the said publishing company, if their claims are true.

The provided source doesn't have any info on the photographer, and I can't find any elsewhere. The earliest online source I found (here from 2010) reserves all rights. In any case the provided creation date (1941) is likely incorrect because Cardona was born in 1927, and is does not look 14 in this photo. To be public domain in Colombia (life+80) the photographer should have died in latest 1944 (or 45 starting in January), but without more information we cannot assume this, and to me it seems unlikely that Cardona is 18 in the photo.

Nonfree licensing. Usage terms at [5] does not explicitly permiss Derivative works, only copies/physical reproductions of the materials. "This album is FREE. Free as in, free. Free to download and if you wish, free to make copies.Make tapes, make CD’s, make records."

--Cawfeecrow (talk) 11:41, 18 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Keep "We do not own this record. You do" sounds like a public domain dedication, or as close as you can get, to me. In addition, the bootlegger page on their site, which has audio of their live performances (including the songs in this album) specifically encourages derivative works[6]. -Nard (Hablemonos) (Let's talk) 13:14, 18 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Yes, but with a condition attached to it:
    "Only deal is you’ve gotta send us some of them to sell on pdoomrecords.com - whatever you feel is a fair trade is cool with us."
    As I understand it, The Definition of Free Cultural Works (the definition Commons uses) does not list something like this as a permissible restriction
    Sure theres this at the FAQ:
    Can I do a remix? Hell yeh!
    But it does not specify whether or not remixes are under the same condition as bootlegs. It could be, it could not be, but I still have my doubts as whether or not this album is Free or not (especially considering it's new licensing {..or at least the track Crumbling Castle the album itself just links to BOOTLEGGER again with each individual track using "© All rights reserved"}, being CC BY ND, which almost implies restrictions on some derivatives in the first place?). Unclear terms all around, is my point. Cawfeecrow (talk) 23:29, 18 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Just caught this on BOOTLEGGER:
    "The original FREE bootlegger album. You don’t have to send us copies of this. It’s FREE - FREE as in FREE. Send us some if u want though!"
    Which (to my understanding) would mean that Polygondwanaland is not under the terms of BOOTLEGGER. This is nice but does not answer the question of whether or not all derivatives are allowed (or even worse, leaves us at square one because at least BOOTLEGGER does explicitly permiss remixes to some extent. Frustrating.) Cawfeecrow (talk) 00:05, 19 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
 Keep. From the official King Gizzard website (archive link): "This album is FREE. Free as in, free. Free to download and if you wish, free to make copies. Make tapes, make CD’s, make records...We do not own this record. You do. Go forth, share, enjoy."{{PD-author|King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard}}. Tapes and records (for instance, audio cassettes and LP records) including this material are necessarily transformative, as analog derivatives of digital works, so derivative works are allowed.   — 🇺🇦Jeff G. please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 21:32, 18 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Fair point on tapes and records being derivatives, but wouldn't that still be only permissing one type of derivative? I find it odd they didn't list remixes as an example and only focused on physical copies of their works.

Before you say anything, I do realize I'm being extremely pedantic here, I almost tsked at myself making this DR. However, I still find it a necessary conversation to have at the very least. These are very loose usage terms. Cawfeecrow (talk) 23:49, 18 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Acho que não seria conveniente, uma vez que este arquivo, em resolução menor, tem cerca de 16MB, enquanto que o outro, original da Hemeroteca da Biblioteca Nacional, tem 1,5MB. Podemos fazer um simples redirecionamento deste para o outro?

The claim of "own work" is highly doubtful. This image depicts a public official ceremony where Malaysian Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad conferred an honorary appointment on Sani Araby (APM), dated 2 March 2019 in Langkawi. An almost identical photograph appears in a Harian Metro (Media Prima) news article covering the same event, indicating that this image is likely a news photograph taken by a press photographer, not by the uploader.(https://www.hmetro.com.my/mutakhir/2019/03/429040/mapim-apm-bakal-latih-sukarelawan) No evidence has been provided that the uploader is the original photographer or that the image was released under a free license by the copyright holder. ~2025-35026-57 (talk) 16:49, 18 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

The source is a webapage of a newspaper, but there is no information it was published in Argentina in 1974.

[edit]

Uploaded by now-blocked account that did some vandalism. Looks to me like the return of one of the LTA flag vandals. All claimed as "own work", which is unlikely but if true means they are out of scope. I suspect these can be speedied by someone more familiar with the situation than I am; going through a DR only in case there is something here someone can salvage.

The flag is a real flag, associated with one of the peoples of that country: File:Berber flag.svg.

This appears to be a copyrighted book cover. Book covers are generally not allowed on Wikimedia Commons unless the rights holder has released them under a free license.

Out of scope: AI-generated illustrations of a festival in India. I'm suspicious that the AI model may have mistaken the word "Indian" to mean Native Americans when giving the figures feathered headdresses.
