possible derivative of non-free content (packaging) FASTILY 06:12, 10 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

• What is the issue? I took the photograph. It's a mediocre picture of a product in its packaging for educational purposes. Is no photo of product in a package ever allowed in Wikipedia? ++Arx Fortis (talk) 18:46, 11 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • @Arx Fortis:. How an image such as this can be licensed depends on the product packaging as explained in c:COM:Packaging. There are essentially two copyrights which need to be considered; the one for the photo you took and the one for the packaging itself. You created the photo, so you can release it under a free license if you want; you didn't, however, create the packaging design and permission from whomever did might be needed for this file to be truly considered 100% free. In this particular case, the logo on the packaging looks like it might be simple enough to be considered ((PD-logo)) per c:COM:TOO United States, at least that's my opinion; if, however, the consensus turns out to be otherwise, then the logo will need to be licensed separately as ((Non-free logo)) instead. This means your photograph can be released as your "own work", but the file would be subject to Wikipedia's non-free content use policy since the logo part is non-free content. -- Marchjuly (talk) 23:53, 11 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Non-free former logos being used in an image gallery in Sat.1#Logos. Non-free files. are almost never allowed to be used in an image gallery per WP:NFG because the context for non-free use required by WP:NFCC#8 is almost never provided. A gallery of former logos, in particular, almost always just shows the logos without without any corresponding relevant sourced commentary about the evolution of the organization's branding, etc. provided in the article. This seems to be the case here. It is, however, possible that these might be considered to be too simple to be eligible for copyright protection either as ((PD-logo)) or ((PD-ineligible-USonly)). Two of the former logos being used in the gallery are File:Sat 1 Logo 1980.svg and File:Sat.1-mit-Namenszusatz.svg. The first file is a Commons file (PD-textlogo) and the other one is a local Wikipedia file (PD-ineligible-USonly). So, if the consensus is that the other former logos (as well as the infobox logo File:SAT.1 logo 2016.png) can be converted to either one of these licenses, then all the non-free content use issues will be resolved. The question is whether the 3D ball imagery falls below c:COM:TOO US; it's kinda close in my opinion, so I'd like to hear what some others think.If none of these can be converted to a PD license, then they fail WP:NFC#cite_note-4, WP:NFCC#8 and even WP:NFCC#3a in the case of File:SAT.1 ball logo 2016.png since it's basically the infobox logo without the "Sat.1"; therefore, I suggest delete for all except the main infobox logo currently being used unless someone is able to address the non-free content use issues, particularly the WP:NFC#cite_note-4 problem for the former logos. -- Marchjuly (talk) 00:34, 9 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

• I understand that to be about the stamp, not the postmark crossing it out. In this case, the stamp is only there to show the postmark location and is not the subject of the picture. Yakatz (talk) 20:39, 9 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • I emailed the USPS Rights and Permissions office for their opinion. Yakatz (talk) 22:11, 9 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete if this needs to be treated as non-free content because of the stamp imagery per WP:NFCC#1. A non-free image is not needed to "prove" that a building was named in Daniels honor because a citation to a reliable source is a more than sufficient free equivalent per WP:FREER to serve that particular encyclopedic purpose. Moreover, since the postmark is a bascially stamp "PD-text", it doesn't seem unreasonable to expect that a free equivalent without any stamp imagery can be created. So, there's no way to justify converting this to a non-free license.
  FWIW, I also think it's kind of hard to argue de minimis here for the stamp, but this type of image seems unecessary even if that were the case per WP:TEXTASIMAGES. -- Marchjuly (talk) 04:57, 17 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

File:Soviet Major General Aleksandr Dmitrievich Berezin.jpg (delete | talk | history | links | logs) – uploaded by Wreck Smurfy (notify | contribs | uploads | upload log). 

This is a test case for discussion, as there are a whole raft of these Russian officers at Special:ListFiles/Wreck_Smurfy. The license claimed is not relevant as that applies to Russia, and we need a US license for en-wiki. I thought that they might be possible to move to commons, so I asked first at c:Commons:Village_pump/Copyright/Archive/2018/11#Advice_on_Image. Which does not exactly help - basically if they were moved to commons, then they would want evidence of publication date to apply the correct license, if they were not published (until the web site source), then they will still be in copyright. I did talk to uploader at User_talk:Wreck_Smurfy#Russian_Images, but the actual original publication date seems to be unknown. If we decide to keep these images, then we do need to add a proper US license and a "Do not move to commons" template. Ronhjones  ^(Talk) 00:18, 5 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

As a writer myself, I have great respect for copyright, as mine has been violated on at least one occasion. One reason I have not uploaded these to Commons is precisely due to the publication date issue. Given my knowledge of Red Army uniforms and insignia, I can determine the year these images were created to within 1 - 3 years. Since they are publicly available on the internet, it stands to reason that they were published at some point, but I have no way of knowing exactly where or when. If this is the stumbling block, so be it. In any case, I include these images in my articles primarily for human interest and for esthetic reasons. We all know that articles are more readable if something is done to break down the wall of text. These images are at least relevant to the given unit, unlike a generic image that an editor added to the article on the 81st Guards Rifle Division. In the end, if these images are to be removed, readers can still access them through the external links, assuming those websites remain available for the foreseeable future. Wreck Smurfy (talk) 04:14, 5 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I must say that in addition to learning Russian for Wikipedia, I'm also picking up a bit of Latin from this discussion. Wreck Smurfy (talk) 03:27, 14 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Technically, Wikipedia doesn't convert images to fair use (as suggested above by B) per se as explained in WP:NFC#Background and it's best to treat "fair use" and "non-free content" as similar but separate concepts. Moreover, I'm not sure that converting these to non-free content wouldn't just create a new set of issues with respect to WP:NFCC. For example, an image of a deceased person is probably going to be fine per item 10 of WP:NFCI as long as it's being used for primary identification purposes at the top of or in the main infobox of a stand-alone biography about said person and there are no WP:NFCC#1 issues; however, things are much more difficult when you try to use such images in other articles or for other reasons. Using a non-free image of an officer for primary identification purposes the main infobox of a stand-alone article about the unit he commanded wouldn't in my opinion be an acceptable type of non-free use, and simply moving the file to another part of such an article just to show the person is also unlikely to be acceptable per WP:NFCC#8. So, unless this file be shown to be ((PD-Russia)) or PD for some other reason, I suggest delete since converting to non-free is not really a viable option unless someone wants to write an article about Berezin per WP:SOLDIER and use the image there. -- Marchjuly (talk) 08:17, 18 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

This is a photo of Senator Joseph McCarthy. (There is an associated OTRS ticket that does not establish acceptable source/permission.)

Non-free image that fails WP:NFCC#8 in that there is no significant sourced commentary about this magazine cover photo. Whpq (talk) 13:40, 18 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete per WP:NFCC#1, WP:NFCC#8 and item 9 of WP:NFC#UUI. There's no reason for a non-free image to be used to show three members of the Rangerettes when it's reasonable to expect that a free image can be created per WP:FREER if the purpose is just to show three members in costume; moreover, there's no real discussion of this particular magazine cover to justify it's non-free use per WP:NFC#CS. -- Marchjuly (talk) 13:55, 18 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
• In the second paragraph of the Popular Culture section are several magazines the Rangerettes have been in/on. The purpose was not simply to show three members in the uniform, rather as one example of a magazine cover. The cover of the magazine itself is a copyrighted image, but the photographer who shot the photo allowed it to be used for this purpose. Michael from Kilgore 00:52, 19 January 2019 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by KingOfKilgore (talk • contribs)
  • The copyright holder's permission is not needed for non-free use; it's really is only necessary if the file is being released under a free license. If the photographer who took the photo wants to release the photo under a free license that Wikipedia accepts, then he/she can do so by sending a consent email to Wikimedia OTRS. The reader doesn't really need to see an example Rangerettes on a magazine cover to understand they received coverage in magazines; so, unless there was some critical commentary in other reliable sources about this particular magazine cover itself can be added to the article, there's no real justification for this type of non-free use per Wikipedia's non-free content use policy in my opinion. -- Marchjuly (talk) 02:59, 19 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    • Please do not take the following as rude, because it isn't meant that way. There are countless articles on Wikipedia containing photographs that, in my opinion, are only there to reinforce text and add some "color" to the article. If you believe Wikipedia should be a text only medium, I respectfully disagree. I am an amateur Wikipedia user, so if I've added this photograph in an incorrect manner, point me to the exact procedure for doing it the correct way and I will resubmit.

      • How a file may be used on Wikipedia largely depends upon how it is licensed. Wikipedia's non-free content use policy is quite restrictive and stating other files are being used in other articles is not is not really a good way to justify the non-free use of this particular file in this particular article per WP:OTHERIMAGE. There's no sourced critical commentary about this particular cover currently in the article, and simply mentioning that members of the Rangerettes appeared on some magazine covers doesn't really require the reader to see this particular magazine cover at all in my opinion.
        Is there's something about this particular image that significantly improves the reader's understanding of what's written in the article to such a degree that omitting the file would be detrimental to that understanding? Was there something about this particular image (i.e. the way it was shot, the photographer who shot it, the three members pictured in it, some controversy surrounding it, etc.) that received coverage in reliable sources at the time or any time since? Is there any coverage in reliable sources which directly refers to this particular cover as showing "how important the group really is" as the non-free use rationale is claiming? Texas Monthly seems more of a state/regional magazine than a national one; it may be available nationally, but I'm not so sure it would be considered to be in the same category as Time, Life, etc.: magazines whose covers often have themselves been the subject of coverage in reliable sources in the past. -- Marchjuly (talk) 00:42, 23 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
        • Thank you for the explanation. This is one of the reasons I still struggle with contributing to Wikipedia both as an editor and a financial contributor. Most experienced editors and people in control of the system seem far more interested in format, structure, and restrictive rules than content. I will remove the picture.

Last I checked, neither the Weld County Sheriff's Office nor the Colorado Department of Corrections were government units of the State of Florida. c:COM:CRT/US#US_States_and_Territories does not indicate that Colorado works are public domain.

We now have a free image, so this one is no longer fair use. Surtsicna (talk) 18:54, 18 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete not needed when the free image has been posted. SNUGGUMS (talk / edits) 20:08, 18 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete per WP:FREER. Probably would've been better just to tag this with ((rfu)) instead. -- Marchjuly (talk) 22:51, 18 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

File:Wedding day photo of Paulina Longworth and Alexander McCormick Sturm.jpg (delete | talk | history | links | logs) – uploaded by Evenrød (notify | contribs | uploads | upload log). 

Non-free image claimed for use "for visual identification of the person in question, at the top of his/her biographical article" but is in fact not used that way as that role is currently served by File:William B. Ruger and Alexander McCormick Sturm 1950.jpg.tiff.jpg. FAils WP:NFCC#8 Whpq (talk) 22:59, 18 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete per WP:NFCC#8 since this type of use appears to be mainly decorative. As for the wording of the rationale, I think that has to do with the fact that photo might have been used in Paulina Longworth Sturm, but that article was deleted per Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Paulina Longworth Sturm. When that article was deleted, this file would've also been deleted per WP:F5 if it wasn't added to another article. So, someone probably just mistakenly assumed that it would just as OK to use the file in Alexander McCormick Sturm and only changed the article parameter of the rationale. -- Marchjuly (talk) 03:05, 19 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
