[edit] The SFU's CASR photos

I've been using that site for about two years now. I don't think I have come across a single image there that was free enough to be uploaded to the wikipedia. I was surprised to recognize the Orca vessel image had been uploaded.

I have a nemesis who criticized me for not putting {copyvio}s on a pair of images someone uploaded to the Carolyn Wood article. One was clearly a copyright photo from the pornographic video "Ilsa, she-wolf of the SS". It was soon deleted. But the other one may have been a screen capture from a television documentary. I believe that kind of image is free enough to be included in the wikipedia.

I don't think I can be held responsible for the uploading of an unfree image, if I didn't upload it myself, just because I put a hint on the uploader's talk page, rather than putting a formal wiki tag on it.

Most of the Canadian Armed Forces images, and Canadian Coast Guard images were uploaded with liscenses that are no longer considered free enough for inclusion in the wikipedia. I spent some time looking for alternative images in the .gov and .mil domains. Those images are generally PD. I found some. They aren't as good as the originals. But we have to abide by the rules, no?

But if the CASR people agreed to release the Orca image, that is a whole different matter. -- Geo Swan 05:39, 23 February 2006 (UTC)

So, did the CASR people agree to release the Orca image? -- Geo Swan 21:23, 21 June 2006 (UTC)

The answer to your question is: No, CASR never agreed that the artwork of Stephen Priestley could be "exploited in any way by anyone for any purpose...".

Tolivero made a statement that implies that Mr. Priestley has agreed to this far-reaching declaration regarding his copyright. He did not. If asked, he would have gladly given Wikipedia the right to re-publish his artwork for this one specific purpose - a communal, non-profit encyclopedia.

[edit] Newfoundland and Labrador WikiProject

There’s now a WikiProject for Newfoundland and Labrador. We hope you’ll join us in making Wikipedia a great source of information about the province and its people. OzLawyer 17:51, 9 June 2006 (UTC)

An image that you uploaded, Image:Navffh-4.jpg, has been listed at Wikipedia:Copyright problems because it is a suspected copyright violation. Please look there if you know that the image is legally usable on Wikipedia (you may have to search for the title of the image to find its entry), and then provide the necessary information there and on its page, if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you.

[edit] Image:Logo-NFLD.jpg in template:projectnl

It's a nice logo, but as it's fair use, it cannot be included in things like templates. The only place it would likely be usable on Wikipedia would be on the page for Newfoundland and Labrador itself. └ OzLawyer / talk ┐ 15:24, 24 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image:Sceptre with the Cross.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Sceptre with the Cross.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{Replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
  2. On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. --Chowbok ☠ 01:16, 9 November 2006 (UTC)
