Hi JWilz12345. Could you take a look at File:Rep. Ma. Cynthia Chan (19th Congress).jpg, File:Rep. Emilio Bernardino L. Yulo III (19th Congress).jpg, File:Rep. Juliet Marie D. Ferrer (19th Congress).jpg, File:Rep. Alfredo D. Marañon III (19th Congress).jpg and File:Rep. Gerardo P. Valmayor Jr. (19th Congress).jpg? They were uploaded locally to Wikipedia, but they really should be on Commons if their licenses are correct. On the other hand, if they're not PD or otherwise release under an acceptable free license, they probably are going to need to be deleted because they can't really be converted to non-free per WP:FREER. -- Marchjuly (talk) 00:52, 23 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Marchjuly I'm much more hesitant to treat images of representatives of the House of Representatives of the Philippines as in public domain by default. There is evidence that HoR just hires professional photographers for their portraits or portraitures, see also c:COM:Undeletion requests/Archive/2021-04#File:Gomez-l.jpg. I also nominated one HoR portrait taken by Mr. Ocs Alvarez, at c:COM:Deletion requests/File:Congressman Sherwin Tugna.jpg, as the metadata claims it is authored by Alvarez and copyright is held by his photography outfit. Three government agencies are listed in his list of clients, one of which is the House of Representatives. Note that I am not saying that Alvarez took the pictures of the local image files you mentioned, but I am saying that HoR tends to hire private, professional photographers in several instances. We also do not have sufficient knowledge about the contract between HoR and the hired photographers like Alvarez. To be safe, let those be locally hosted here under FU tag unless there is significant proof that the photographers involved in those photos were regular employees of HoR.

Thank you for taking a look. For reference, though, these files can't be hosted locally as non-free content because everyone of them would fail WP:NFCC#1 because non-free photos of living people are pretty much never allowed. In addition, even if none of these people were alive and NFCC#1 wasn't an issue, the way the files are being used in lists wouldn't be allowed per WP:NFLISTS. So, if these files aren't PD or otherwise released under acceptable free licenses, they will need to be deleted. -- Marchjuly (talk) 02:21, 23 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'll need also the insights from other Pinoy users who have more experience in PH government copyright issues: @Howdy.carabao and Pandakekok9:. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 02:02, 23 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
