The date given is when the film Witch's Cradle was shot, but likely not the publication date. According to the source linked, "The Witch's Cradle is an unfinished Maya Deren film made in the Guggenheim Gallery during a surrealist 'Art of this Century' exhibit. It was assembled long after her death [in 1961] by staffers within the preservation department at Anthology Film Archives." Based on reviews of the film, it seems like it was edited and published in 1988, which is after {{PD-US-no notice}} could apply. hinnk (talk) 03:37, 29 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Uploader make a delete request on Polish Wikipedia. This is a beginner user. I wasn't sure if it qualifies for removal in Commons:Criteria for speedy deletion#G7 mode in this case --Architekt1024 (talk) 06:14, 29 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The request to remove on pl-wiki happened within a day or so of uploading, so a courtesy deletion could be warranted. That said, the file is in use (and was placed on the article pl:Tarczynka (dopływ Jeziorki) by the uploader), so maybe not. —Tcr25 (talk) 21:23, 19 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

McZusatz (talk) 00:35, 20 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the notice. I went and called 2 offices on the matter. I consider that the USA laws and Commons are the same, and Philippine copyright laws were borrowed from USA. Hence, I needed some enlightenment on the legal ramifications on copyright law. Specifically, the issue here is whether or not these uploaded images violated copyright or any other laws? Let me share my legal opinion and thoughts on the matter. First, the CBCP allows reproduction of any and all religious images. Second, for me, original images are those like mine which are from my cameras SONY 2008 and NIKON AW100 inter alia, where the size is very big that is 4,600 x 3,400 or 6 Mb+. A photographer would not in his right sense give to the internet for public use or consumption, like Facebook, etc. big or his or her original images. I conclude therefore that the religious images I got from the internet are even copied from derivative works of originals, since they are so small. In fact, the reasons I uploaded them here in Commons are: a) I love the sun images, and I desire to share beautiful pics in Commons when the sun fails me in my photography, b) I test the speed of the falling internet here, and c) most of the times, I fail to meet on time the parish priest of the Church, so I get permission from the office or the parishioners to get their pics of the this church or the priest. However, they would not allow their names to be revealed for privacy. Second, I asked about 3 lawyers of a legal department of the Copyright law office, and they opined that images, like books must comply with copyright deposit rules and regulations issued due to the Law requirement. More importantly, photographs of churches of priests and parishioners in churches when uploaded or copied for religious and moral reasons, etc. are not violative of the law, especially when the size is so small. Why should I get from the internet small images when I personally spend huge sums to go to the church and landmark sites, and spent more money in uploading these images from 11 pm to 4am daily more or less? In good faith, I love them and I ponder legally, that there is no obstacle in law, when I share them in Commons, Fair use so to speak. I do have the express but verbal permission of the CBCP and the churches to use their pictures especially as I said, I failed to capture a sunny facade of the church and the parish priest was away when I shot. Let me put here some parts of the law as basis of my above submissions: [Catholic Bishops' Conference of the Philippines[1] and [2] - Republic Act No. 8293. K: Photographs and cinematographic works made in a process similar to photography - Section 185 of the Intellectual Property Code provides for fair use of copyrighted material. The criteria for fair use is almost identical to the fair use doctrine in United States copyright law, with the exception that even unpublished works qualify as fair use under Philippine copyright law.[3]SEC. 185. Fair Use of a Copyrighted Work. – 185.1. The fair use of a copyrighted work for criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching including multiple copies for classroom use, scholarship, research, and similar purposes is not an infringement of copyright. Decompilation, which is understood here to be the reproduction of the code and translation of the forms of the computer program to achieve the inter-operability of an independently created computer program with other programs may also constitute fair use. CHAPTER IX DEPOSIT AND NOTICE SEC. 191. Registration and Deposit with National Library and the Supreme Court Library. –SEC. 192. Notice of Copyright. –xxx.)]

IN FINE, I respectfully submit the above legal argument. And I stress that I failed to get a written legal opinion from the CBCP and our Copyright law office. I think this mater had already been exhaustively talked about or discussed by the editors in [4] Tambayan. I have no objection to the fair discretion of older editors to delete my above images, for the good of Commons. Best regards.--Ramon FVelasquez (talk) 14:15, 20 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Suspicious early uploads of Ramon FVelasquez. While his recognized tool is Nikon COOLPIX AW100 (or Sony DSC-T200 for his 2012-era uploads like File:Churchpuljf.JPG), the following nominated images have either different camera models or are missing exif metadata (and some very small resolutions). These may have come from his apprentices or other people then passed on to him. No indication of proper copyright transfer via COM:VRTS correspondence if this is true. Likely similar case to Commons:Deletion requests/Files uploaded by Ramon FVelasquez#Files uploaded by Ramon FVelasquez (talk · contribs) 2. See the nomination proper for added details.

It can be noted that Ramon FVelasquez's reply to the second thread above seems self-contradictory: "Second, for me, original images are those like mine which are from my cameras SONY 2008 and NIKON AW100 inter alia, where the size is very big that is 4,600 x 3,400 or 6 Mb+." and afterwards then "I conclude therefore that the religious images I got from the internet are even copied from derivative works of originals, since they are so small." Plus he introduced the concept of fair use, even if fair use is eternally not allowed here. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 04:26, 29 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Strongest possible   Keep High resolution photos of cityscapes, in scope. Somewhat properly categorized, at least one image I checked is in use of two wikipedias. Almost everything I checked are strongly differing views (not 500 photos of the same thing from the same persepective or so)
No clue whats up with this AN report which alleges "severe mental illness", "ridicoulus categories", "terrible images" without any evidence whatsoever. ~TheImaCow (talk) 16:36, 23 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Strong keep. The images are immensely valuable, especially in the absence of representative photos for Wikipedia articles that use them. I go further to say that Judgefloro has contributed much valuable photos that are in current use in several Wikipedia articles. If categorization of photos is a problem, I would assist further as I am currently doing with several of his previous photos. Sanglahi86 (talk) 21:05, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

My nomination includes all the images listed on this page. The idea of demonstrating human phenotypical variation is useful, but the variation of postures shown makes it difficult to compare these body types, and there are no sources, leading to this potentially being more harmful than helpful as an educational tool since it suggests homogeneity within states and promotes stereotypes. Daask (talk) 14:15, 29 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your detailed reasoning for deletion request. All Wikipedians that have ever request deletion of any of my images would put the most simplistic of reasoning —- if any. In this case, I truly value your concern. My only issue is about this being wrongly viewed as a non-Mexican. This, because Wikimedia and Wikipedia is plagued with unsourced stereotypes. And I see no one doing anything, and when I try I get frowned upon with “well, we see it this way in America” or “if I haven’t heard of it then it’s not true”. The irony is that this exact issue (unsourced stereotype of Mexican issues/history) is what prompted me to volunteer as a Wiki editor. And boy oh boy, do I face backlash. Hence my motto on my userpage: “Wikipedia is not Europe, and Europe is not Wikipedia.
So, to your point, I will address your points of concern:
Yes, variation of poses is something deep down has bothered me. But being an artist, I took the artistic flair, so they could also be used in wiki projects (which they are). But ideally I would have done a generic anatomical pose. Sadly, I can’t anymore, since I did this drawings based on consent photos I took of friends and people I’ve met as a photographer.
About sources, I don’t understand. Other than, like you say, lack of proof of someone being of a specific state would otherwise need to be someone public/noteworthy. Here is one of my main issue. Because whenever I see anatomical drawings/photos on wikipages I don’t you guys giving same reasoning.
About stereotype. Like I explained, there is a heavy bias and latent stereotype on many things related to Mexico (be it in Wikimedia or Wikipedia). By this reasoning, you would also need to tag deletion requests to almost half of Wiki content related to Mexican issues/history. But you won’t do it. Because we intrinsically accept stereotypes, but, like you said, rarely do we stop to actually analize. Sadly, as always, such burden falls on me, a Mexican doing a categorization of Mexican topics. Getting used to it —- though still sad about it.
Thanks for bringing this up, and until we could come to a common-ground solution, for now, I stand against deletion. Miguel Angel Omaña Rojas (talk) 17:18, 29 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  •   Delete Per the nominator for both the gallery and images. We don't usually host amateur artwork by users. Especially without some kind of sources, but these don't have any and it seems like the only answer to that is a screed about how only Mexicans should have an opinion about it. What makes this file of a woman in Chihuahua though? Let me guess, I'm just being biased by asking and should just keep my opinion to myself because I'm American? OK. Sounds like a reasonable way to do this. BTW, some of these are being used on Wikipedia but I'd argue in a totally inappropriate way. For instance File:Nude Mexican woman of Aguascalientes.svg is being used in the Wikipedia article for strippers. But come on. There has to be better images of strippers on here and it's totally bias to portray Mexican women as overly sexualized sex workers. Apparently that kind of stereotype is cool though. If I have an opinion about this as an American, that's bad. But if the uploader wants to portray Mexican women as cartoonish sex objects that mainly exist for mens pleasure then that's totally fine. Right. --Adamant1 (talk) 06:20, 3 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  Speedy keep firstly, this not a proper bundle nomination. Secondly, the drawings themselves are high quality and in-scope. Thirdly, several of these images are COM:INUSE. I don’t think they’re all good uses per se like the example provided by Adamant1, but what’s wrong with this use? Or this? Or any of the uses of this image? I would support deleting the page as unhelpful but as the nomination claims to be about all the contents of the page I can only support its closure as malformed and a violation of in-use policy.

I looked at the last file's usage, because it's frankly weird that these files would be in use in any mainspace page. It was added to Wikidata by an account that somehow only edits items that have images by Miguel Angel Omaña Rojas on them. Almost certainly a sock. That Wikidata addition accounts for two of the Wikipedias. The last Wikipedia, Chinese, was added manually by that same account. There's some funny business afoot. — Rhododendrites talk09:50, 4 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
TepeyacPilgrim's user page on Wikidata is a dead give away that they are a sock. "I decided to contribute to Wiki after reading for years and years a lot of misinformation, and sometimes blatant bias, about the region where I'm from, its people, as well as Mexico and its pre-Hispanic history....The Wikipedia community needs to change its attitude towards non-European/non-American Wikipedians." That's litterally the exact same thing Miguel Angel Omaña Rojas has been going off about here. --Adamant1 (talk) 10:08, 4 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I created the illustration at a time when the current photo was not yet available on Commons. My goal was to create a better version of the pencil sketch (used at the time).
Since realistic photos now exist, the illustration can be deleted.
