Hello, on https://viralzone.expasy.org/contact The following information is provided: All pictures in ViralZone are copyright of the SIB Swiss Institute of Bioinformatics. Permission is granted to use the pictures in academic theses or non-commercial powerpoint presentations, provided the source is acknowledged. Plese check the information providedby Philippe Le Mercier, SIB provided at my home page user:Ernsts This is as follows:

Message from Philippe Le Mercier <Philippe.Lemercier(at)sib.swiss> as of 2021-02-01 concerning the ViralZone images:

"As for the images, the license has changed: they are now under Creative Commons CC BY 4.0. It is stated on the home page of ViralZone. This means you no longer have to ask permission to use them in any media, provided you credit the source. Here is an official statement in case you need it:

I hereby grant you permission to use ViralZone graphics in Wikimedia commons. Please cite the source: ViralZone, SIB Swiss Institute of bioinformatics

If you need any other official documents from SIB, you can ask legal(at)sib.swiss or me.

I draw a rabies virion during my thesis and the image went viral, many people around the world used it in their talks/posters/theses. I realized there was a need for free, accurate and beautiful images, I am glad the SIB supported the project and ViralZone was born.

Good luck with Wikipedia commons, it's a huge project.

Sincerely yours,

Philippe

In case of any questions, please contact Phil or me. Please check if the delete request is still justified after considering this. Kind regards, --Ernsts (talk) 20:54, 8 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Btw, I have asked Philippe to check, if the information provided at https://viralzone.expasy.org/872 needs an update accordingly.
I'll keep you posted.--Ernsts (talk) 21:30, 8 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I see there are files noted for deletion that I took from EurekAlert not from ViralZone. Most of them are designated as usage: free. I always copied this into the permission text. Pleas let me know the reason why you have flagged them for deletion! This is to let you know that my work as active wikipedia usersince more than 11 years is in serious danger!

@Ernsts EurekAlert: [2]. Also not cc-by-sa license's statement. (｀・ω・´) (talk) 02:06, 9 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Also, I think you may need COM:OTRS. (｀・ω・´) (talk) 02:09, 9 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Just have a look at ViralZone root bottom right. Additional, I have asked Philippe Le Mercier to check their 872 page. He told me that they have lack of manpower and some of their pages are in fact outdated by almost a year or so. BTW. I don't think that I'll go thru COM:OTRS -- it's ways too complicated for me, sorry. -- Concerning the images that I took from EurekAlert that are also on the delete list. Most of the images I took from there hav Usage restrictions: none — is that not enough? Please note that deleting all the images as requested meen that I had to stop my activities on Wikipedia - after more than 11 years. Kind regards, Yours --Ernsts (talk) 07:27, 9 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
So what? The website’s non-free copyright notice still remains unchanged. (｀・ω・´) (talk) 08:36, 9 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
How long you contributed has nothing to do with me. I only care about you uploading images that do not comply with our policies. (｀・ω・´) (talk) 08:40, 9 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Doc James: Thanks for your help! I'm afraid I did not receive any email reply from Phil concerning their 872 page up to now. Please let me know, if I couold help in any way. E. g. if I should edit the images with copyright notice and replace it wit CreativeCommons Logo. Just in order to avoid further confusion and only in case that this was legel, of course (let me know if there was need for explicite permission by SIB/Phil)! --Ernsts (talk) 12:56, 10 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
User:Ernsts we have explicit permission from SIB now in the OTRS system so just need an OTRS volunteer to come around. But ｀・ω・´ has withdrawal their deletion request for these. We just need to clarify the other group. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 21:39, 10 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks so much. As you may have seen, I have taken some further images from ViralaZone. :-) --Ernsts (talk) 19:02, 12 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Doc James: Hello, there is another image from ViralZone, https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:T7_Cycle.jpg, which seemingly has been uploaded by another user in the past, but had been deleted. I just tried to uploaded this one and was informed about that matter. So please could you either restore it or give me permission to upload it again? Kond regards, --Ernsts (talk) 09:11, 17 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

EurekAlert

[edit]

I have reached out to the author of this one to clarify.[4]Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 10:19, 10 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks also here for clarifying the status of the EurekAlert images. Please not that I took all frim EurekAlert as provided with the give information and they have the usage restriction note there as also provided with the permission text. Most (ot all) have usage restricions: none. An example for a different text is "File:118913 web phage PAK P3.jpg". Kind regards, --Ernsts (talk) 12:56, 10 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Okay so the author says [5] is released under a CC BY SA license and the permission has been forwards to OTRS. The open license supposedly applies to all Texas A&M content uploaded at EurekAlert! Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 19:21, 10 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Great! Looking forward for the delete requests to be removed. If I can do anything more, please let me know (see above)! --Ernsts (talk) 22:00, 10 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Are all the Eurek files from Texas A&M User:Ernsts?
I'm afraid not. They are from different articles, that is from different authors/institutions. However, I took al pictures from EurekAlert as provided in the meta data. So if you need to ask the original authors (not just EurekAlert) then I wouldn't take any further images from there (even if EurekAlert says 'Usage Restriction: None'). BTW You find the EurekAlert files in the list given above easily because the file name ist nnnnnn_web_*.jpg (6 digits, underscore, 'web'. Seems there are no files with suffix *.png). Hope that helps... ~~---- — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ernsts (talk • contribs) 16:57, 11 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
This one for example is from the US Department of Energy and thus is likely public domain.[6] But yah one would have to go through them. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 08:45, 12 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
So, just for doublecheck :-): For instance, file:///51639_web_T7_microphotography_colored.jpg was taken from article https://www.eurekalert.org/pub_releases/2013-01/uota-vci011013.php, the img page is https://www.eurekalert.org/multimedia/pub/51639.php, which shows "CREDIT
From Hu et. al. 2013. Science Express.
USAGE RESTRICTIONS
None", but nevertheless you still have to ask Hu et al? --Ernsts (talk) 18:58, 12 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Doc James: Please note that all EurekAlert images have been dowloaded from those image subpages privided ba EurekAlert for every one of their articles that includes images. The usage permissins are providedby EurekAlert at the bottom of those image subpages and have been copied to the Wikimedia Commons image metadata. However it seems that I just provided the URL of the main article, not that of the image subpage. Please let me know if you like me to change this in the commons image metadata. Thanks --Ernsts (talk) 07:35, 13 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
The only question is what license does "Usage Restriction = None" turn into to User:Ernsts. I personally think that that would be CC-0 and thus fine here. I guess we can ask EurekAlert. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 08:48, 13 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Fine. I also think asking EurekAlert might be the best way to get the issue solved in common.
Please note that some images dont't hav "Usage Restriction = None" but "Usagee restriction = by Credit" instead (there is another field Credit mentioning the authors, just above "Usage Restriction" See File:238054 web surrogate viruses.jpg). I'll go through the imnages anc check if the URL of the EurekAlert page where I downloaded the image ist provided (i. i. not just the image URL and not the URL of the original article, which I never used for download).
BTW: And https://www.eurekalert.org/multimedia/pub/118913.php has CCAL. Might be some images may not be changed, just kept asis and mentioning the authors (as we do). I'll check that and report here.
--Ernsts (talk) 09:15, 13 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Doc James: Checked now all EurekAlert images. Metadata has been updated with the URL of the EurekAlert Page, where the image, credit and permission can be found, and where the image was downloaded from according to the image (jpg/png) URL provided. For your convenience, data is reported below as announced:

Hope this may melp! .-) Please let me know if you need any exceeding info. Kind regards --Ernsts (talk) 12:02, 13 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. Agree this sounds like CC-0 and CC-BY to me. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 12:31, 13 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
You're welcome. Just Added some information missing in the list (this copied from above the list)--Ernsts (talk) 18:19, 13 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
 Comment OTRS agent (verify): I've accepted File:255355_web_c.jpg (again). Even when "Usage Restriction = None" could sounds lice CCBY or CC0, we need an exact license, with all and the number of version, so I think it's not a valid license. As OTRS agent I wouldn't accept such statement. Regards. --Ganímedes (talk) 21:56, 13 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Doc James: Hello, copuld you please kindly give me an update about the status of the other erekalert images, (e.g. 51639 web T7 microphotography colored.jpg still has the delete note but has not been deleted). Thanks in advance.--Ernsts (talk) 09:15, 17 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I have emailed EurekAlert! to clarify that they mean "usage restrictions = none" means the image is "CC-0" Ticket#2021021710006884 Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 15:37, 17 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
User:Ernsts EurekAlert has confirmed that "none" is the same as CC-0. CC-0 of course does not have "versions" Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 16:00, 17 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Doc James: Does this mean, that at least the images with the "none" entry can be used? Please let me know if could help in any way, e.g. changing current CC-4.0 (or whatever it is) to CC-0. And how about the one with CCAL? (Sorry I'm very gree in uploading images ;-) Did almost all the 11 years just reuse images, esp. when translating articles. --Ernsts (talk) 16:13, 17 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
My hope is that a current OTRS agent will take care of this. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 16:49, 17 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Here it says "As such, if a piece of multimedia appears on EurekAlert!, reporters and editors assume it is cleared for reuse or redistribution without further need to obtain permissions."[7] Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 00:06, 18 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Mussklprozz: If I understand User:Doc James right, the delete note can be removed from all files in the list provided above, isn't it? If yes, could you please kindly perform this? Thanks in advance. Regards --Ernsts (talk) 00:01, 23 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Ernsts: ✓ Done Cheers, --Mussklprozz (talk) 08:35, 23 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
