Potential copyvio farm

Hi Túrelio, I noticed you deleted File:Rescuer onlooker at the landslide location on 01 August 2024.jpg after finding out it was a copyvio. I was looking into this user due to some disruption on en.wiki, and in addition to the copyright notices on their talkpage File:Participants in first summit.png seems to be taken directly from this site. The two current socks that have uploaded images are here and here. I actually tineyed them before I knew they were socks, and didn't find anything, but since becoming aware of the larger pattern the uploads seem potentially concerning. Best, Chipmunkdavis (talk) 16:01, 22 August 2024 (UTC)

How can a file under Creative Commons license be deleted for copyright infringement? On what grounds was it deleted? Was its license checked? - Ash wki (talk) 15:35, 8 September 2024 (UTC)

Where is the evidence that this photo has been put under a free license? The provided source doesn't say so. The author, who is the only who can release it under a CC-BY license, is unknown, as you claim. --Túrelio (talk) 20:25, 8 September 2024 (UTC)

Redirecting to duplicate file

It's absolutely unnecessary: File:Kenkichi Tomimoto and his family, end of 1917.jpg. — Preceding unsigned comment was added by 79.50.3.130 (talk) 07:39, 10 September 2024 (UTC)

Redirects are created automatically by the duplicate-script. --Túrelio (talk) 09:33, 10 September 2024 (UTC)

Ok. 82.61.202.80 10:29, 10 September 2024 (UTC)

Can you do the same redirects with these: File talk:Kenkichi Tomimoto and Shinichi Sasagawa, circa 1917-1918.jpg, File talk:Kenkichi Tomimoto (right) with unknown, circa 1917.jpg, File talk:Kenkichi Tomimoto and his daughter.jpg? Thank you. 82.61.202.80 10:36, 10 September 2024 (UTC)

Please, read very well my instructions: it's the opposite files to be redirected. Don't do the same error and invert immediately it for "Kenkichi Tomimoto & Shinichi Sasagawa" and "Kenkichi Tomimoto (1917)". 82.61.202.80 10:45, 10 September 2024 (UTC)

Each one of the duplicate-files were protected (likely due to previous edit-warring). Therefore I had to redirect to the protected versions, not the other way round. --Túrelio (talk) 10:51, 10 September 2024 (UTC)

"Yamamoto Heikichi" is very good, with the full page and the Japanese explanation. Can you redirect "Yamamoto Heikichi (1913)" to it? Thank you. 79.16.11.68 11:25, 10 September 2024 (UTC)

Can you do it? 193.207.153.240 07:55, 11 September 2024 (UTC)

I've tagged the file. --Túrelio (talk) 10:23, 12 September 2024 (UTC)

Can you delete "Yamamoto Heikichi (1913)"? It's only an exactly-scaled down of "Yamamoto Heikichi". Thank you. 193.207.108.147 12:48, 12 September 2024 (UTC)

Can you do it? 79.18.119.157 10:33, 13 September 2024 (UTC)

Letter from Selena at the Village Pump

Hi Túrelio, I hope you're fine. Since you're an active admin and editor here, I wanted to flag a potentially interesting discussion at the Village Pump, started by Selena Deckelmann about finding a better way of supporting Commons. Maybe you can consider, if you have time, to share your thoughts? Thanks in advance! Sannita (WMF) (talk) 14:20, 16 September 2024 (UTC)

A barnstar for you!

File:Convair 580 turbo prop airplane.gif

Hi, would you take a look at File:Convair 580 turbo prop airplane.gif ? I am also wondering if an uploader is allowed to remove copyright violation CSD on their own from a file where an allegation of copyright violation is made.

I have CSD'd as a copyright violation, because the description provided by the uploader which says he was given permission by presumptive copyright owner's representative for conditional use only, which is contradictory to CC-BY-SA even though uploader set the machine readable copyright as CC-BY-SA. The uploader removed my CSD tag. The description says The image came from Farrow J. Smith who was a director of Alexander Dawson, Inc. at 4045 South Spencer St., Suite 212, Las Vegas, Nevada. He has given me permission to use this picture in publications about Girard B. Henderson. so it's pretty obvious they only granted permission for very specific use and there's no indication implied or direct the uploader had permission to release the image under CC-BY-SA. Graywalls (talk) 02:13, 11 November 2024 (UTC)

I've put the file into a regular DR; though, it seems clear that the permission is not sufficient. Thanks for notifying. --Túrelio (talk) 08:58, 11 November 2024 (UTC)

Now they're arguing Cc-by-sa-4.0-heirs. Do you feel this is a reasonable application in this case? Graywalls (talk) 22:10, 11 November 2024 (UTC)

Missing categories

Hi, as these files are currently protected, can you edit the missing categories:

• Category:Akira Tomimoto: Kenkichi Tomimoto and his daughter; Kenkichi Tomimoto, his family and his mother in front of his workshop, 1918.
• Category:Sue Tomimoto: Kenkichi Tomimoto, his family and his mother in front of his workshop, 1918.

Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment was added by 87.4.238.59 (talk) 09:21, 11 November 2024 (UTC)

I couldn't find the first one. Please provide full filename. --Túrelio (talk) 10:35, 11 November 2024 (UTC)

 Done. --Túrelio (talk) 10:51, 11 November 2024 (UTC)

"File:Kenkichi Tomimoto, his family and his mother in front of his workshop, 1918.jpg": Akira cathegory is better before Sue's. 87.8.237.252 10:52, 11 November 2024 (UTC)

"File:Kenkichi Tomimoto and his daughter.jpg": Akira category is better after her father's. 87.8.237.252 10:53, 11 November 2024 (UTC)

Can you correct those places so it's closed' Thank you. 79.16.236.108 11:30, 11 November 2024 (UTC)

Provided I understand you correctly: The order in which the categories appear on the image page is meaningless. --Túrelio (talk) 11:33, 11 November 2024 (UTC)

In these two photos there is an error of transliteration from Japanese: the first daughter's name is not "Akira", but "Yō" (ヨウ, Yō) instead (see: https://books.rakuten.co.jp/rb/1552092/). Can you correct it in the summary and replace her category with "Yo Takai"? Thank you. 82.58.205.193 12:17, 14 November 2024 (UTC)

Thank you. Can you also rename with "Yo" her four photos in the category with "Akira" in the title: "Akira and Sue Tomimoto.jpg", "Akira Tomimoto (1919).jpg", "Akira Tomimoto (1920).jpg", "Kazue and Akira Tomimoto.png"? Thanks. 79.40.89.104 10:39, 16 November 2024 (UTC)

Gute Nacht Túrelio. Ich schreibe Ihnen zu diesem Thema. Es wurde nachgewiesen, dass es sich bei dieser Geschichte um eine Erfindung zur Werbung für ein Buch handelte. Hier hast du den Ursprung der Bilder, diese Person ist der Schöpfer. Der esːWiki-Artikel und der Wikidata-Datensatz wurden gelöscht. Ich denke, dass es im Commons keine Spur von dieser Werbekampagne geben sollte, oder? CFA1877 (talk) 22:26, 11 November 2024 (UTC)

Request for Autopatrolled Rights

Unfair Deletion

You deleted a file for a politician by the name of Janelle Bynum whom has a campaign website that is considered a public domain janellebynum.com/media-center with free downloadable images with use for articles/press. I emailed the campaign and was given full permission to upload any image from the campaign website to Wikipedia. File:Portrait of Janelle Bynum.jpg. Please un delete this file, thanks! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Hellollo12 (talk • contribs) 23:20, 13 December 2024 (UTC)

Hi, "campaign website that is considered a public domain" - that's a misconception. Being shown on a website/offered for download does not equal a free license, as required per our policy COM:L. Anyway, if you asked the rightsholder for release under a free license, this may work. However, the rightsholder needs to send the confirmation/permission directly to permissions-commons@wikimedia.org (OTRS); forwarding is not accepted. And remember, a mere "permission for Wikipedia" is not accepted. It needs be released under a free license, such as CC-BY or CC-BY-SA. --Túrelio (talk) 09:48, 14 December 2024 (UTC)

Undelete request for File:SydneySweeney2024.png

Hi Túrelio. I'm sorry to bother you, but I saw that an image I had uploaded (File:SydneySweeney2024.png) was deleted with the accompanying message "No indication at YouTube that this released under a CC or similar license." However, the YouTube video that it came from now says in its description that it has a "Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed)." I wanted to ask if my file could be undeleted. Thank you very much. Fsalis (talk) 04:32, 15 December 2024 (UTC)

Deleting empty categories...

On November 26, 2024 User:Joeyconnick moved page Category:Spadina (TTC) to Category:Spadina station, with an edit summary of "match main article title".

Near as I can tell, from his revision history, he made no attempt to discuss his concern over the category's name with other contributors.

On November 27, 2024, you deleted this very long-standing category, with the explanation "(incorrectly named) duplicate, content moved to Category:Spadina station)".

I am sorry, I am concerned that Joeyconnick's actions were very highly disruptive. Joeyconnick manually recategorized over one hundred images, putting them in his preferred category. Contributors are supposed to either open a discussion over the categories name, or place a {{Move}} template on the category. When they do that, if there is agreement with their new name proposal, a robot does the actual move, and that robot leaves a {{Category redirect}}.

Joeyconnick acted out of process, and, in my opinion, they should be strongly urged to never do this kind of thing again.

The standard process results in leaving a {{Category redirect}}. This is extremely important, for several reasons:

1. Long-standing category names may have been linked to from good-faith third-party sites. Those external links will still work if a {{Category redirect}} has been left. Those external links break when no {{Category redirect}} has been left. This makes the project look fragile and unreliable
2. Deleting long-standing category names, without leaving a redirect, imposes a completely unnecessary cognitive burden.

I've been working on transit related material for almost 20 years. That is long enough that I don't have to think about the category name for a TTC station. It has always been the name of the station, followed by the disambiguator "(TTC)".

Today I went to categorize an image of a TTC station, into Category:Spadina (TTC), only to find it was a redlink.

WTF! Why should I have to spend time trying to determine where the category is NOW, when a redirect would have automatically put the current name?

Now, maybe you had a good reason for not leaving a {{Category redirect}}... If so, I would appreciate that explanation. But, if the only reason you did not leave that {{Category redirect}} was you thought Joeyconnick had a good point, please don't do that. Please leave the {{Category redirect}}, just like the robots do. Geo Swan (talk) 02:49, 25 December 2024 (UTC)

• Hi Túrelio... I'm not going to engage in this absolute witchhunt that Geo Swan has cooked up in their fevered imagination except to point to how they've now addressed me twice on my Talk page, the most recent inappropriate and completely uncivil lambasting being here. Please feel free to let me know if you would like me to follow a different process for future category renames. Given their bad-faith assumptions, obsessive belief that all category renames need discussion, baseless accusations that I'm somehow out to "trick" admins, and frankly unbelievable tone, I certainly won't be following any of Geo Swan's guidance. —Joeyconnick (talk) 06:27, 25 December 2024 (UTC)

removal of photograph

Hi, Recently you removed a photograph of me on my wiki page. I don't know why it was removed since it is standard to include a photograph in these academic bios, and I am the owner of the photograph so there is no licensing issue and as far as I know, the picture was clear enough. Can it please be reposted or do I need to send a different kind of photograph? thanks.

Arnold Arluke aarluke@gmail.com 172.56.102.220 22:49, 26 December 2024 (UTC)

Hi Arnold, as you were not logged-in when posting, I have no information to which image you are refering to. --Túrelio (talk) 10:29, 28 December 2024 (UTC)

I own the image, my friend took it of me. There is no licensing problem to insert it on my wiki page. Thank you for re-inserting it.

Deletion of "Organs in _" as a Misnomer for "Pipe organs in _"

This is incorrect on two accounts. First, there is nothing incorrect about "Organs in _" (for example, "Organs in Berlin"). Second, pipe organs are but one type of organ; for instance, reed organs are not pipe organs. As such do not delete or combine these topics. HwætGrimmalkin (talk) 09:08, 4 January 2025 (UTC)

Deleted by mistake Stankinlogo2025.jpg

https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Stankinlogo2025.jpg

As stated previously this image has indeed been uploaded to https://www.artlebedev.ru/stankin/

But need to take into consideration a few moments:

1. This is the website of design studio Art. Lebedev Studio (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Art._Lebedev_Studio), which has a common practice of uploading any of their work even if it was made for commercial uses (you can look up on their website, they even developed a logo for Yandex[2]);

2. The rebranding announcement of MSUT STANKIN university on their official VKontake[3] page[4] which has the same logo. Greedygrind (talk) 08:50, 14 January 2025 (UTC)

Hmm, I'm still not sure what conclusion to draw from your explainations. The originally provided source, as well as www.artlebedev.ru/stankin/, carry no evidence for the claimed CC-license. --Túrelio (talk) 15:45, 14 January 2025 (UTC)

Under which license would you suggest uploading it in this situation? Can you please recommend? Greedygrind (talk) 18:47, 14 January 2025 (UTC)

Problem is, I don't see any evidence for a free license, as required for upload to Commons per COM:L. On the other hand, I find the logo being "creative" enough to assume that is is eligible for copyright. So, we have to assume that it is copyrighted. As the copyright usually is with the creator/artist, he or she would be the person who could release the work under a free license. So, you could try to contact the artist and ask him whether he would be willing to release the logo under a free license, such as CC-BY[5] or CC-BY-SA[6]. A permission "for use on Wikipedia" is not acceptable on Commons; not sure if it would be on :ru-Wikipedia. To be sure, even if freely licensed, the logo could be protected as a trademark. This would be no problem for upload to Commons, but could ease the decision of the artist. If the artist is willing, you should go to Commons:Email templates (or the Russian-language sub-site) and copy the permission-text in the squared box to your word-processor, add the filename (of full URL) of the image and send the prepared permission-template to the artist, ask him to read, date and sign it and to send it directly to permissions-commons@wikimedia.org (Emails to this address are treated confidentially). --Túrelio (talk) 21:11, 14 January 2025 (UTC)

File:Yaser Alsaidi.jpg

Hello Túrelio , you requested a Deletion for the image Yaser Alsaidi.jpg and added the reason is that it’s published from https://www.instagram.com/vip_gov and that’s not correct cause it’s published in a public domain and in the official Al Jazeera English YouTube channel and I edited this photo myself ( I tried to add the source link from YouTube and you can easily find it by searching “palestinian doctor in ukraine: draws parallels with gaza, endures personal”) so kindly remove your speedy deletion request. Victoria Kuchereno (talk) 14:40, 17 January 2025 (UTC)

Hi Victoria Kuchereno,

in case you took this screenshot from this video, it is not in the public domain, but only under Youtube's default license, which is not compatible to Commons. A few videos on Youtube are under a compatible CC-license, but this is not. --Túrelio (talk) 14:47, 17 January 2025 (UTC)

I edited the image to add it to Commons so please undelete it and you can edit the license Victoria Kuchereno (talk) 15:16, 17 January 2025 (UTC)

Editing an image which is copyrighted by somebody else, doesn't change the original copyright. --Túrelio (talk) 15:41, 17 January 2025 (UTC)

So how can I add this image to Commons? Victoria Kuchereno (talk) 15:44, 17 January 2025 (UTC)

There is no legal way to add this image to Commons. First, you would need to convince the rightsholder to release it under a Commons-compliant free license, such as CC-BY or CC-BY-SA. However, as this requires it to be free also for commercial re-use, it is very unlikely that the rightsholder will agree to this. --Túrelio (talk) 16:16, 17 January 2025 (UTC)

Where can I send you the photos that I want to publish so you can check them before I publish, to ensure that such situation won’t happen again. Victoria Kuchereno (talk) 16:25, 17 January 2025 (UTC)

Hi,

"they were doubles" - in that case, you had nominated the wrong files for deletion. In addition, if you use the speedy-script "duplicate", any additional tagging is unnecessary. --Túrelio (talk) 21:40, 19 January 2025 (UTC)

License review

Hi, could you please kindly review this upload: File:Piotr Trojan.jpg. Thank you:) AlicjaBalicja (talk) 13:21, 20 January 2025 (UTC)

My files

Hello Túrelio,

I have noticed your comments regarding the maps I created and uploaded, and I’d like to provide a detailed explanation of my position.

The maps I created reflect internationally recognized borders as established by the United Nations and supported by the majority of countries worldwide. My intent is to provide accurate and unbiased representations of geographic and political realities in line with international law, not to push any political agenda. Specifically: 1. Crimea: The territory of Crimea is internationally recognized as part of Ukraine. While it is currently occupied, this occupation is not legally recognized by the UN or the majority of states. 2. Unrecognized Entities (e.g., “DNR”, “LNR”, “Transnistria”, “Abkhazia”, “South Ossetia”): These regions are not recognized as independent states by most countries or international organizations. Representing them as separate entities on maps can mislead viewers and conflict with widely accepted geographic conventions. 3. My aim is to avoid presenting any politically controversial or unrecognized territorial claims as factually valid, which is consistent with Wikimedia Commons’ goal of neutrality and factual accuracy.

If there are concerns about the maps, I am open to discussing them in a constructive and collaborative way. I encourage a calm and respectful discussion instead of framing my work as “vandalism” or “POV pushing,” as such accusations are counterproductive and contrary to the spirit of Wikimedia’s collaborative community.

Should you have specific points of concern, I invite you to raise them either in a deletion request discussion or on the talk page of the map in question. I am happy to review and, if necessary, revise the maps based on a consensus reached through proper community dialogue.

I hope this explanation clarifies my intentions and the principles I followed when creating these maps. Thank you for your understanding, and I look forward to a constructive discussion on this matter. Salto Loco (talk) 08:51, 21 January 2025 (UTC)

Hi Salto Loco,

it seems you have misinterpreted the notifications on your talkpage. Another user had tagged these images for speedy deletion. As some of them were still in use on other project-pages, I have converted the speedy-deletion-requests into a regular (slow) deletion-discussion. This was just a maintenance-edit. So far, I have no opinion on the rationale of the speedy-request. --Túrelio (talk) 14:37, 21 January 2025 (UTC)

January 2025

Hi, I would like to ask about the removal of the image I uploaded. Why was it flagged for copyright infringement, even though the source of the photo was mentioned in the description? As far as I know, government sources are public.

Hi,

are you talking about File:Prabowo and Putin.jp? If yes, the source-site states "Hak Cipta © Kementerian Pertahanan Republik Indonesia", but not that its content is in the public domain. --Túrelio (talk) 14:32, 21 January 2025 (UTC)

Deletion of File:Air Mail Poster (19290383998).jpg

At the very least, the rationale is completely irrelevant: death date of author has no effect on copyright status of U.S. works from this era. Do you have even a basis to believe this was ever copyrighted? - Jmabel ! talk 18:37, 22 January 2025 (UTC)

Well, as the painting is in this center of this poster, it is surely above COM:TOO and thereby copyrightable. IMO, the PD-SDASM-template is meaningless, as the museum is not the copyright-holder. If artist en:Melbourne Brindle created this work for the en:United States Postal Service, which is neither mentioned in the description nor in the Flickr-source, the copyright might (or not) have been transferred to the USPS. However, whether it then falls under PD-USGov is unclear to me. At least, I didn't find any USPS-specific PD-tag in Category:PD-USGov license tags. Assuming it was first published in the US, per File:PD-US table updated.svg its current copyright-status depends on whether it was published without notice and not renewed or with notice and renewed. In the 1st case, it would be in the PD, in the 2nd case it would still be in copyright (1940 +95 years). I'll put the image into a regular DR, so that all open questions can be discussed. --Túrelio (talk) 09:35, 23 January 2025 (UTC)

Advice

Hello, can you please help me conclude this discussion? Obviously, Mexico's freedom of panorama law allows these photos because the law says: VII. Reproduction, communication, and distribution by means of drawings, paintings, photographs, and audiovisual procedures of works that are visible from public places Aurelio Sandoval (Mensajes aquí please) 20:37, 24 January 2025 (UTC)

Hi,

that's indeed not an easy case. Mexico's freedom of panorama exception is not in question. However, the consideration by the nominator is also legitimate. For the moment, I don't have a speedy solution. As the DR was opened just today, it might be the best to leave DR open for quite some time and hope that a number of informed users voice their opinions. I have a somewhat similar upload/case: File:StarWarsGraffitiViktoriaalleeAachen 8254.jpg. I can only assume that the mural-painter, who is known, obtained a permission for this derivative. --Túrelio (talk) 21:12, 24 January 2025 (UTC)

File deletion

RE: Deletion of File:Alice Da Silva Aguiar, Bebe King and Elsie Dot Stancombe.jpg

You deleted this file on the grounds that "It's unlikely that the Crown Prosecution Service or UK government own the copyright of these family photos", however the CPS could have easily requested to use these photos and distribute them under Open Government Licence v3.0. All original information on CPS webpages falls under Open Government Licence v3.0, with the exception of logos (see here) and when they do publish images they do not hold the copyright to, they make this clear (see here, where Merseyside Police are credited for the mugshot.) No such copyright disclaimer is left on the family photos, suggesting that they are also available under OGL 3.0. There is no reason to believe otherwise.

As such, I think this image should be restored. Macxcxz (talk) 22:04, 24 January 2025 (UTC)

Hi,

while I understand that these images are of high encyclopedic value, the rationale by the original nominator (not me), appears to be sound. For example, in this report[7] from yesterday, the images are expressedly labeled as "family images". So, per the typical press/media-exception, they can be used/reproduced by media (and government) without being released under a free license. However, the usual media-exception is not valid for Commons and Wikipedia (except those that accept fair-use). --Túrelio (talk) 22:18, 24 January 2025 (UTC)

I do not really see what a news report crediting them as family photos has to do with their publishing by the CPS. As previously stated, all images published by the CPS, unless otherwise stated, fall under OGL 3.0. I was not aware that the deletion was nominated by another user, is there any place I can view this nomination, or more formally contest it? Macxcxz (talk) 22:25, 24 January 2025 (UTC)

Sure, at Commons:Undeletion requests. --Túrelio (talk) 22:29, 24 January 2025 (UTC)

TV6 logo

You deleted File:Tv 6 logga.png for copyvio. Why? It's clearly {{PD-textlogo}}. // Kakan spelar (talk) 22:33, 25 January 2025 (UTC)

Well, per the statement on https://www.tv.nu/policy/anvandarvillkor, from where the logo was taken, they claim full intellectual property for images, design, etc. In addition, the file was claimed to be under {{cc-by-sa-4.0}}, which is clearly untrue, and a trademark-template was missing. However, per Commons:Threshold of originality#Sweden the logo might indeed be below copyrightability in Sweden; though I am unsure whether that is valid outside of Sweden. So, I will undelete the image and put it into a regular DR, which allows discussion. --Túrelio (talk) 09:23, 26 January 2025 (UTC)

Duplicate deletion question

Hi, just wondering why you chose to delete the older version and retain the newer version for File:Anchorage White Raven 191984643 04.jpg and File:Anchorage White Raven 191984643 03.jpg? They should have been the same quality. It's no big deal, just wondering what I missed! (also, now the names in the Anchorage White Raven category don't neatly match up but even I have to admit that's a little nitpicky lol) GreenLipstickLesbian (talk) 21:19, 26 January 2025 (UTC)

Hi,

you are correct that we usually retain the older upload. However, in these cases the newer uploads had markedly higher resolution. So, after visually comparing the files, I choose to retain the newer ones. If the filenames don't fit, I can rename them. --Túrelio (talk) 07:38, 27 January 2025 (UTC)

Hi,

per our policy COM:L only works that are free for commercial use and for the creation of derivatives are allowed to be uploaded to Commons. Not all CC-licenses do allow this. The image in question is under a CC-BY-ND (ND = no derivatives) license, which is not allowed (as the only license) on Commons, the same as CC-BY-NC (NC = no commercial use). --Túrelio (talk) 07:35, 27 January 2025 (UTC)

Titration of iodine in salt

Hi Túrelio! @Fra.Ardini asked me (privately) why File:Titration of iodine in salt - adding salt in flask.jpg and File:Titration of iodine in salt - adding deionized water.jpg. I see that you marked them with no permission and they were later deleted by @Krd. I don't understand why you marked them as no permission. Fra.Ardini confirmed me that @Saleiodato, the uploader, is the photographer, as indicated in the file page, and I see no reason to doubt that. Jaqen (talk) 17:45, 28 January 2025 (UTC)

Hi @Jaqen,

honestly, I don't remember why I had originally tagged them. So, I tried to find out. When I temp-restored the first image and looked at its metadata, I found that they credited "Laura Guida" as photographer and copyright-holder. The same was true for the 2nd image and for the other not deleted images of this series. Now I am quite sure that this was the reason to tag the images as "no permission", as this name is unsimilar to the uploader's account-name. If the uploader indeed is said Laura Guida, she could send an email to OTRS (permissions-commons@wikimedia.org) stating that she is indeed the mentioned photographer. Then, OTRS can put a ticket on all images of the series. This would also prevent the same happening again in the future, when somebody else note the discrepency betwenn uploader and mentioned photographer. If she wants to do that, tell me, then I will undelete the 2 images.

In case, she is Laura Guida, but wasn't aware that her real name is shown in the metadata and objects to it, the images could either be deleted and then re-uploaded (with the name removed from the metadata) or she could re-upload the "cleaned" images (name removed from the metadata) over the existing images and thereafter the first version can be deleted or hidden. Nevertheless, even in this case it would be easiest to send the above mentioned confirmation to OTRS. --Túrelio (talk) 19:35, 28 January 2025 (UTC)

@Túrelio I didn't check the metadata! I've asked @Fra.Ardini: Laura Guida was the owner of the camera. She taught Saleiodato and others how to use it and let them take some photos, that they later uploaded. I've suggested him to create a template to explain this workshop thing and add it in the file pages. If you have no objections in the meanwhile I would undelete the images. Jaqen (talk) 15:52, 31 January 2025 (UTC)

Sure. --Túrelio (talk) 18:08, 31 January 2025 (UTC)

Done! --Jaqen (talk) 18:34, 31 January 2025 (UTC)

Thank you for the understanding and thank you @Jaqen: for helping me. I will provide a template for these uploads in order to avoid troubles. Thank you and bye. --Fra.Ardini (talk) 16:11, 7 March 2025 (UTC)

Retrieve file

Hello, could you undelete the photo File:Camera car La Grande Vadrouille Retromobile 2010.jpg, please ? The author did finally put the right license (https://www.flickr.com/photos/alain-mercier/4310770445). Groupir ! (talk) 16:52, 30 January 2025 (UTC)

Done. But, problem is that it is not accessible. So, the license-status cannot be checked. --Túrelio (talk) 17:25, 30 January 2025 (UTC)

I don't understand. I don't have any problem to see it on Flickr (https://www.flickr.com/photos/alain-mercier/4310770445). On my demand, the author put this file under license CC-BY-SA 2.0, alongside two other photos (https://www.flickr.com/photos/alain-mercier/4310804313 and https://www.flickr.com/photos/alain-mercier/4311509518). Groupir ! (talk) 10:30, 31 January 2025 (UTC)

Well, when I go there I get a 403 and also the FlickrReview-Bot is not able to check the license. It seems the Flickr-account has changed the visibility, as initially (with the wrong license), it obviously was visible, per the FR-record. The reason may be that the Flickr-user doesn't really want to change the license for all Flickr-visitors. If that is the case, you can tell them that after our FlickrReview-Bot has recorded the compatible license (which takes only seconds), he may change back to restrictive license on Flickr.--Túrelio (talk) 10:45, 31 January 2025 (UTC)

Ok I will talk to the author. Wait a few days. I hope this new problem will not bother him, it took a long time to finally get the right free license from him. Groupir ! (talk) 13:05, 31 January 2025 (UTC)

If my "suspicion" is correct, you could arrange a time with him and after he changed the file to "open", you can activate the Flickr-Review-But by yourself by removing the current FlickrR-record from the file and adding {{Flickreview}}. Usually it takes less than 5 minutes until the bot has reviewed the license on Flickr and added a record to the file on Commons. --Túrelio (talk) 13:12, 31 January 2025 (UTC)

The file was deleted by another person. I'm still waiting for the answer of the author. It is so absurd, I can see it is under free license ! Groupir ! (talk) 06:09, 8 February 2025 (UTC)

The problem on Flickr may be that one needs to be logged-in (on Flickr). --Túrelio (talk) 10:35, 8 February 2025 (UTC)

Finally I was able to log-in to Flickr and view the image and license. I've uploaded the highest available resolution and manually reviewed the license. If you want, you can tell the Flickr-user that he can, if he wants, switch the license on Flickr back to more restrictive. --Túrelio (talk) 10:42, 8 February 2025 (UTC)

Great, finally ǃ Strangely, the author just said to me it did nothing special with the pictures on Flickr. As you did, I have uploaded the two other photos from Flick manually. Could you review their license, please : File:Camera car La Grande Vadrouille front clapperboard Retromobile 2010.jpg and File:Camera car La Grande Vadrouille rear Retromobile 2010.jpg 01.jpg.

Metadata

You recently deleted File:Sister Paula Nielsen and Fluster the Dove.jpg, which I assume was something I brought over from enwiki using FileImporter. Could you check - who was the original uploader and/or what was the original filename? Thanks. DS (talk) 04:03, 2 February 2025 (UTC)

File-metadata mention Daniel Spiro as "artist"/author. The original upload-record mentions en:-user Primatepdx as author and "Newdove2.jpg" as the filename. --Túrelio (talk) 15:03, 2 February 2025 (UTC)

That wasn't a "personal photo from non-contributor". It was uploaded to enwiki for use in a biographical article that was deleted a few years later for being inadequately sourced.

I think the late Ms Nielsen actually might meet notability criteria; if I remake the article, I'll ask you to restore the image. DS (talk) 01:04, 3 February 2025 (UTC)

Problem is that the metadata-base author/artistname "Daniel Spiro" doesn't fit to the uploader's account-name. So, it might be a copyvio. --Túrelio (talk) 19:57, 4 February 2025 (UTC)

Steve Christou Politician

Hi Turelio.

I kindly request that you reinstate the picture on the Wiki Page. Ancient Trojan (talk) 05:14, 5 February 2025 (UTC)

Hi Ancient Trojan,

as you have no deleted uploads on your account, could you tell me which file you are talking about. As I usually perform hundreths of deletions per day, it's nearly impossible to keep track. The eventual removal from a Wikipedia-article is not performed by myself, but automatically by a bot after a file has been deleted on Commons. --Túrelio (talk) 07:34, 5 February 2025 (UTC)

Are you talking about File:Steve Christou politician.jpg? Well, that was deleted in last year. It had been uploaded by User:LyndseyHDouglas, who claimed it as own work and to be from July 2024. However, on Facebook the same shot had been uploadded already November 2023.[9] Now, who is really the photographer? And, if not the photographer, who holds the full copyright? --Túrelio (talk) 07:39, 5 February 2025 (UTC)

Hi Turelio

I am the owner and hold the copyright. Can prove through purchase receipts. Lyndsey Douglas was given permission from myself to upload the image. 110.175.175.162 00:18, 7 February 2025 (UTC)

Hi,

ok. The usual procedure for such cases is: send an email from your official email-address to permissions-commons@wikimedia.org in which you should first mention the filename of the image on Commons (File:Steve Christou politician.jpg), explain the copyright-status, your will to release it on Commons under the choosen free license (was: cc-by-sa-4.0) and eventually add evidence. Your email is treated confidentially by our OTRS-volunteers and is not published. An OTRS-volunteer will evaluate the copyright, eventually ask for more clarification (so, provide a point of possible contact) and, if approved, add an (approval-) ticket to the image. Do this as soon as possible. I'll conditionally undelete the image, but add a OTRS-pending tag. --Túrelio (talk) 09:02, 7 February 2025 (UTC)

I have just submitted the email as requested with proof of purchase Invoice and email.

Please reinstate in a timely manner.

Hi, please see your talkpage User talk:Vüsal Qərib. They were deleted because they are suspected to violate copyright. --Túrelio (talk) 19:30, 9 February 2025 (UTC)

Why have you deleted an image that is licensed under CC-BY-4.0?

I uploaded an image from Microsoft Learn to Commons a few days ago, but it was deleted by you a few hours ago. It is licensed under the CC-BY-4.0 according to https://github.com/MicrosoftDocs/windows-itpro-docs/blob/public/LICENSE What is your intention? カペリートの夢 (talk) 05:36, 12 February 2025 (UTC)

Hi,

well, the image had been copied from https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/security/application-security/application-control/user-account-control/, right? The terms-of-use on that page[10] do not mention any CC licensing. So, I don't know in what relation is the license-page, linked by you, to the uploaded screenshot. If you are truely convinced that it is under a free license, I can put the upload into a regular deletion-request, which allows for discussion. --Túrelio (talk) 07:51, 12 February 2025 (UTC)

Hello. — Preceding unsigned comment added by カペリートの夢 (talk • contribs) 08:31, 12 February 2025 (UTC)

Well, I didn't took it from MS Learn, no. I took it from a repo which is hosted on GitHub, meaning not here but here. So it is not appropriate to bring Microsoft Learn TOS, IMO.

In case you don't know, Microsoft Learn is open-source and vast majority of it is in official GitHub repositories, which is a host service for open-source projects. And looking at the dedicated repo, it says all the docs in the repo are explicitly licensed under the CC-BY-4.0 (and all the code in it are licensed under the MIT License as CC isn't really for code), both of which are permissive licenses and allow me to use/exploit/perform in anywhere with attribution.

I don't really think there's still room to discuss, will you upload it again, or should I? カペリートの夢 (talk) 08:26, 12 February 2025 (UTC)

As annoucned, I've undeleted the image and put it into a regular DR to allow for discussion. Here you are: Commons:Deletion requests/File:Consent.exe on the secure desktop.png. --Túrelio (talk) 08:53, 12 February 2025 (UTC)

File:Rinpa style ink-stone box.jpg

hello u forgot this one: File:Rinpa style ink-stone box (cropped).jpg. 4urEDqkeAtdyXbQ (talk) 15:17, 17 February 2025 (UTC)

Hi, no, as the remaining one is 2-dimensional and thereby o.k. per PD-Art, as the depicted original work is PD since long. --Túrelio (talk) 19:35, 17 February 2025 (UTC)

Rinpa style ink-stone box

Hello Túrelio, you recently deleted this image and I'm wondering if the reasons for deleting it also applies also to this one. I'm asking because the choice between this and other images for the en.wiki article "Yasuke" is currently the subject of an RfC, and the editors would like to know if they still have an "Option B" (Rinpa style ink-stone box) available. Thanks, Gitz6666 (talk) 23:31, 17 February 2025 (UTC)

I apologise. I just noticed that you've already answered the same question in the thread above. Gitz6666 (talk) 00:03, 18 February 2025 (UTC)

Hi Túrelio, I've re-added this image while correctly filing it under public domain. The owner of the depicted work passed away in the 16th century[11][12][13]. Since the picture isn't creative the derivative clause for non-2D art doesn't apply. Bladeandroid (talk) 03:34, 18 February 2025 (UTC)

I believe PD-old-100 is the right template for it. Bladeandroid (talk) 03:49, 18 February 2025 (UTC)

Category:People associated with rail transport in Germany

Hallo! Do hast die Unterkategorien zu dieser Kategorie gelöscht mit der Begründung, dass diese nicht nützlich sind. Sie waren bis zu wenigen Minuten vor der Löschung auch nicht leer, was in der Verantwortung von User:Adamant1 liegt. gab es hierzu einen Konsens? Warum sollten wir diese Kategorien entfernen, wenn die Mutterkategorie auch so aufgebaut ist? Ich finde, so etwas sollte vorher diskutiert werden. Ping @Triplec85 als erfahrender Nutzer im deutschen Kategoriensystem. Lukas Beck (talk) 11:37, 19 February 2025 (UTC)

Hi, ich habe sie wohl gelöscht, weil sie leer und entsprechend markiert waren, vermutlich durch den erwähnten Benutzer. Ob da vorher etwas einsortiert war, kann ich nicht sehen. Da es eine reine Wartungslöschung war, können sie gerne wiederhergestellt werden, wenn sie doch gebraucht werden. Wenn ich das machen soll, müsstest du sie mir nur auflisten. --Túrelio (talk) 13:50, 19 February 2025 (UTC)

Just to respond since I was pinged. 1. It was discussed at Commons:Village_pump#Category:Categories_by_association and although I can't find it right now there was another discussion about the whole "associated with" thing a few months ago that had the same conclusion. There's also this bit in Commons:Categories "there should be one category per topic; multi-subject categories should be avoided. The category name should be unambiguous and not homonymous." Aside from being multi-subject, a category for people associated with transport (whatever that means) is rather ambiguous.

2. From what I remember, the only subcategory in Category:People associated with rail transport in Germany at the time was Category:People at train stations in Berlin, which is already in multiple sub-categories for people at train stations in Germany. Everyone at a train station in Germany is inherently "associated with rail transport in Germany." So the category was totally redundant. Maybe that's not the case with similar categories, but it clearly was with this one. --Adamant1 (talk) 13:46, 19 February 2025 (UTC)

@Túrelio: I don't think the categories should be restored given that this was already discussed multiple times and for the reasons I gave in my second point. I don't have a problem with L. Beck commenting on the village pump discussion and then the categories being restored if or when the consensus changes, but they are still ambiguous, redundant and go against the guideline for naming categories in the meantime. --Adamant1 (talk) 13:58, 19 February 2025 (UTC)

Ich sollte erwarten, dass eine Mutterkategorie auf Bundesebene, welche nach wie vor existiert, auch weiterhin die Tochterkategorien auf Landesebene enthalten sollte. Diese existierten für die Bundesländer Berlin und Brandenburg. Andersherum sollte sicherlich erwartet werden, dass die Mutterkategorie der bereits gelöschten Tochterkategorien auch geleert und gelöscht werden sollte. Es ergibt keinen Sinn, die Kategorie auf Bundesebene zu behalten und auf Landesebene zu löschen. Lukas Beck (talk) 14:37, 19 February 2025 (UTC)

@L. Beck: Obviously context and how a category is being used matters. The category at the federal level makes a little more sense because it has actual categories for people in it that are probably associated with transport. To quote Themightyquill from a similar discussion "The use of "associated with" certainly has its place on commons, but we don't put people who've ridden in a truck or been run over by a truck in Category:People associated with trucks." I'd say the same applies here with putting images of people taking trains in a category for "people associated with rail transport." Whereas it makes a little more sense for someone like Category:Rüdiger Grube since he's the CEO of Deutsche Bahn. Although I'd much prefer there just be categories for CEOs of rail companies instead of creating millions of redundant "associated with" categories for every minor thing that happens to be related on here. Otherwise the federal level category should just be deleted as well. --Adamant1 (talk) 14:57, 19 February 2025 (UTC)

Deletion of CC photo

Hello, you deleted File:Delegate Michelle Maldonado, Virginia House of Delegates, 2024.jpg because of a "copyright violation," but the photo was licensed under a CC license that is permitted on Wikimedia Commons. You can see the original file here, with a CC-BY license. Why does this qualify for deletion? Packer1028 (talk) 02:40, 21 February 2025 (UTC)

Ähem, for the deleted image, source=The Office of Del. Michelle Maldonado and author=Amanda Maglione. No Flickr-link had been provided. So, where is the evidence for the claimed CC-license? --Túrelio (talk) 08:22, 21 February 2025 (UTC)

The source is the Office of the Governor of Virginia, the author=Lori Massengill, and the CC license is CC-BY. Please review the link I provided. Packer1028 (talk) 12:59, 22 February 2025 (UTC)

Here is the Flickr link I provided above: https://www.flickr.com/photos/gy74/53459489650/in/album-72177720313998100. I don't know why the photo was listed as being by the delegate's office, because the original photo (at least the one that I uploaded) came from this Flickr address. Would I be allowed to (re)upload this image from this address? Packer1028 (talk) 13:07, 22 February 2025 (UTC)

Ähem, thee image under the last cited Flickr-link (showing a group of 3 persons) is completely different from the deleted image (a single shot). --Túrelio (talk) 14:23, 22 February 2025 (UTC)

It's a crop of that photo, or at least the one I submitted was. And again, it's licensed under CC-BY, meaning it's not a copyright violation. Unless someone switched photos or switched the attribution, this photo is acceptable. Packer1028 (talk) 22:33, 22 February 2025 (UTC)

Sorry, but no. The delete image (File:Delegate Michelle Maldonado, Virginia House of Delegates, 2024.jpg), which was uploaded by User:Forbailey, is not a crop of https://www.flickr.com/photos/gy74/53459489650/in/album-72177720313998100. These are totally different images. For now the online-source of the deleted image is unknown, as it was not provided at upload. I did even a Google-search, which didn't find it elsewhere. --Túrelio (talk) 08:38, 23 February 2025 (UTC)

Oh, that's very strange. I would have sworn that image was the one I uploaded. My sincere apologies for the confusion. Packer1028 (talk) 04:36, 25 February 2025 (UTC)

Almost all maps are in the public domain

I happen to have User talk:Radom1967 on my watchlist, and noticed the deletion of this:

• File:Visualisation of Numbeo's Cost of Living Index by Country in 2023.jpg

I have no idea what license Radom1967 used for it. But many people do not know that nearly all maps are in the public domain. It doesn't matter what other license sources or users try to use. See Template:PD-map.

I googled and found this map which I assume is the map in question:

• https://www.numbeo.com/cost-of-living/rankings_by_country.jsp?title=2023

I haven't studied whether the map is any good or not. That is a separate issue. --Timeshifter (talk) 06:07, 21 February 2025 (UTC)

Hi,

uploader had put it under {{self|cc-by-sa-4.0}} AND provided https://www.numbeo.com/cost-of-living/rankings_by_country.jsp as source. The latter is indeed not under a free license[14], as it has a NC-restriction. If you really want to "fight" about the general status of this map, I can put it into a regular DR. --Túrelio (talk) 08:27, 21 February 2025 (UTC)

No, I will take your word for it: "methodology is opaque and flawed. We should not be using this even without the copyright issues."

I am just trying to get the word out about {{PD-map}}, {{PD-chart}}, etc.. I have uploaded various maps and charts from the web to the Commons, and changed the license to those licenses. Because most maps and charts can't be restricted in their use. They are in the public domain regardless of how people try to restrict them.

There are a wealth of maps and charts out there that would be very useful in Wikipedia articles. And oftentimes much better than anything Wikimedia users can create fresh.

I have changed licenses on maps and charts already on the Commons too. To the PD ones. To get the word out that way too. And because we are not supposed to put restrictive licenses on images that are already in the public domain. --Timeshifter (talk) 09:54, 21 February 2025 (UTC)

Just to get this right: the words of the deletion-rationale/reason are not from me, but the nominator. --Túrelio (talk) 13:07, 21 February 2025 (UTC)

OK, thanks for the clarification. I hope that in the future you and other admins will just substitute {{PD-map}} or {{PD-chart}} for any other license on a map or chart under deletion discussion. Maps and charts that do not qualify usually include other copyrightable things like photos, illustrations, diagrams, etc.. --Timeshifter (talk) 20:04, 21 February 2025 (UTC)

I'll try. Otherwise, remind me again. --Túrelio (talk) 14:24, 22 February 2025 (UTC)

Category:1861 maps of Pennsylvania

You deleted Category:1861 maps of Pennsylvania as "(incorrectly named) duplicate" but isn't the correct name 1861 maps of Pennsylvania? What other name would it be? Ricky81682 (talk) 10:02, 5 March 2025 (UTC)

Hi, this rationale comes from the nominator User:Enyavar and was automatically adopted. Anyway, the now-deleted cat could be assumed as a sort of duplicate of Category:1860s maps of Pennsylvania to which the content had been moved. Of course, if a larger number of maps from 1861 occurs, the 1861-cat can easily be recreated. --Túrelio (talk) 10:42, 5 March 2025 (UTC)

Mother and Mother 1+2 album soundtrack covers

Hello! I was wondering why you deleted the covers for Mother and Mother 1+2 off of this platform, as both covers feature elements that do not meet the threshold for originality to be copyrighted. I'm not too familiar with COM:TOO Japan, but both covers seem like they would fit the criterium to be in the public domain. NintenBOUND (talk) 13:56, 6 March 2025 (UTC)

Hi, I assumed that they might be over TOO of Japan. If you want to really discuss this, I can put them into a regular DR, which allows a discussion. However, for this you need to provide me the filename of the images. --Túrelio (talk) 14:52, 6 March 2025 (UTC)

We have a policy wrt deletion: Commons:Deletion policy.

Per our policy COM:L, only images that have been released under a free license by their author/creator can be uploaded to Commons.

can you delete the first one from the draft and leave the one from the article MAHAMAT BORGOU HASSAN (talk) 14:08, 8 March 2025 (UTC)

File:Pete Jonas at Outside Lands 2021.png

Hi Túrelio. File:Pete Jonas at Outside Lands 2021.png is just a re-uploading of File:Pete Jonas Outside Lands.png which you deleted yesterday as a copyvio. This user orignally uoloaded the file locally to English Wikipedia as en:File:Pete Jonas performing at outside lands.png under a "CC-by-sa-4.0" license, sourced it to Instagram and attributed it to en:Pete Jonas. After the local file was tagged for speedy deletion per en:WP:F11, the user uploaded it too Commons as their "own work" under a "CC-zero" license. I don't know whether this user is just really misundersanding COM:L, COM:NETCOPYVIO and COM:Own work or whether they're intentionally trying to deceive, but all they needed to do was have the copyright holder (even if that was they themselves) send a consent email to VRT for verification. They've also uploaded two other photos from Instagram are almost certainly no their "own work" that I tagged as needing permission but most likely because I was assuming good faith at the time; however, after seeing what this user has done regarding this particular image, it seems unlikely that copyright holder consent will ever be forthcoming, and I probably should've tagged those files as copyvios instead. -- Marchjuly (talk) 19:55, 14 March 2025 (UTC)

You actually deleted this file while I was posting the above; so, thank you for that. Now, I'm not sure what to do about this user since they might just upload the file again under yet a different name. Do think adding {{End of copyvios}} to their user talk page will have any effect? FWIW, the other two file now have {{Permission received}} templates added to their pages; the emails were apparently insufficient, but at least someone does seem to have emailed VRT. Perhaps the email was also intended to cover this particular image as well. -- Marchjuly (talk) 19:59, 14 March 2025 (UTC)

After EC: I've notified the user already. It seems for 2 of his recent uploads something was sent to OTRS. Let's wait for their evaluation. --Túrelio (talk) 20:03, 14 March 2025 (UTC)

That's fine. Thanks again for taking a look at these and for adding the notification to the uploader's user talk page. FWIW, the same user also uploaded File:Positively Records.png as their own work under a cc-zero license, but that was fairly easy to cleanup; the photos are much harder to sort out. -- Marchjuly (talk) 20:09, 14 March 2025 (UTC)

They just uploaded the same file again as File:Pete Jonas Outside Lands 2021.png, but this time its sourced to Instagram and tagged with {{Permission pending}}. In addition, they've also uploaded File:The peters.png. They've not responded to any of the notifications left on their user talk page; so, it's not clear whether they now understand what's needed per COM:CONSENT or are just re-uploading files regardless of COM:L. -- Marchjuly (talk) 22:27, 14 March 2025 (UTC)

Thanks for notifying. For the moment let's just wait for the judgement of OTRS/VRT. --Túrelio (talk) 08:52, 15 March 2025 (UTC)

Hello @Túrelio just a gentle reminder. Will you be doing this? Shaan Sengupta^Talk 02:14, 28 March 2025 (UTC)

You delete my page

Hi Túrelio, I am Sfsanchez72. You deleted my page. I am new in the wikipedia. If I have done something wrong, I apologize. Could you explain me what I have done wrong? Thanks! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sfsanchez72 (talk • contribs) — Preceding undated comment was added at 03:25, 25 March 2025 (UTC)

Asking for an impartial voice

Hello @Túrelio. This is the first time I'm doing this so I'm sorry if this is beyond your purview, but I'm looking for an impartial view on a topic under discussion regarding File:Flag of Portugal.svg. There's currently a contentious discussion going on that topic named "File outdated" which greatly needs an impartial juror, I believe I'm reaching the right user. I would be very much appreciated if you could voice your opinion there. Best regards, Oos88 (talk) Oos88 (talk) 02:01, 26 March 2025 (UTC)

Advice requested

Hi, could you please have a look at File:VCM-Cover.jpg? It's an open-access journal and articles have a statement that they are published under a CC license, but it's not clear to me that this goes for the whole website. In any case, it's almost certainly not "own work". Thanks! Randykitty (talk) 13:13, 26 March 2025 (UTC)

Level Editor

Hallo!

Sie haben mein Bild Level Editor im ursina engine Wiki gelöscht. Ich habe ein weiteres Bild eingefügt, hoffentlich nun mit richtigem Copyright, allerdings hat das Bild kein Copyright und es ist auch kein Videospiel. Was soll man beschreiben, damit es richtig ist? Jedenfalls können Sie sich nun anschauen, ob das jetzt richtig mit dem Copyright ist.

Viele Grüße Raphi-2Code (talk) 18:59, 26 March 2025 (UTC)

My dodge image

Hi sir, I noticed my image of my 1946 dodge that I literally took with my iphone was deleted from the "Dodge Custom" page because of copyright issues? Also, it was claimed to be on pintrest but the pintrest link you referenced is dead link and I never posted this car image on pinterest. Please let this image be on the wikipedia page. I love this car and want, for historical purposes for it to be seen on wiki. There is no copyright issues as it is my image I took and I can prove it to you if you need proof. A wiki robot appeared to delete it based off the accidential copyright violation of the image. Thank you very much for your understanding. Ri5009 (talk) 01:34, 29 March 2025 (UTC)
