[edit] November 29

[edit] Image:All shall perish.jpg

The source listed is myspace.com which provides no actual source for the image or whether any permissions have been granted 156.34.230.166 (talk) 11:01, 29 November 2007 (UTC)

Not deleted - fair use being claimed (a questionable claim at that) --B (talk) 01:07, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Image:Anime nurses girl .jpg

Image is listed as being made by the US gov, but it seems highly unlikely. VivioFateFan (Talk, Sandbox) 00:43, 29 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Image:PYLsydneyraceriots.jpg

Given the (limited) source information provided, it appears to be a news photo and not a promotional image, which falls under WP:FU#Unacceptable images #6. Kelvinc (talk) 02:02, 29 November 2007 (UTC)

Not deleted by this process, tagged as replaceable fair use and as not having a rationale. If the image is not deleted by one of those two, then it gets a trip to IFD. (Maybe we can come up with another process or two while we're at it.) ;)--B (talk) 01:06, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Image:BeecherBandBermuda_Arrival.jpg

Questionable GFDL-self claim Jusjih (talk) 03:34, 29 November 2007 (UTC)

The photo was provided and chosen, from dozens (hundreds, actually) by Stewart "Dirk" Fischer, who is in the photo (bottom front). Dirk was, at the time, the lead trumpeter and business manager of the Little John Beecher Orchestra. Dirk himself is a noted composer and retired instructor of jazz studies living in Southern California. He is the brother of Clare Fischer. Dirk has served as a source for several wikipedia contributions, particularly Territory Bands. John Beecher died in 1987. John Beecher's wife, Dorothy, died November 3, 2007. I am in touch with the heirs -- Paul Hubbard Beecher (son) and George Ferris Beecher (son) and Laurie Ann Beecher (daughter), all of Atlanta. The photo is not copyrighted.
The photo is of the Little John Beecher Band, Arriving at a U.S. Air Base in Bermuda in 1958. From top: Bill Klingenpiel (baritone sax & clarinet), David Niver (alto sax & clarinet), Dick Busey (tenor sax & clarinet), Betty Jordan (vocalist), Tom Fewless (trumpet), Russ Longstreth (piano), Bob Stone (drums), unknown (bassist from Minneapolis); Bottom row, from the left: Dorothy Beecher (John's wife), Stewart "Dirk" Fischer (lead trumpet), John Beecher (bandleader), and NCO Club manager.—Preceding unsigned comment added by Eurodog (talkcontribs)
I am asking the uploader to send a copyright permission statement to permissions-en at wikimedia dot org and I will withdraw this when the statement is approved.--Jusjih 19:59, 2 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Image:Filopodia.jpg

Contradictory copyright information on description page. MER-C 04:39, 29 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Image:Plates.jpg

Has OTRS received the permission? Jusjih (talk) 04:40, 29 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Image:Karmichael_Hunt_2.jpg

The Flickr page licensing, the vague back-and-forth wording of the transcript on the image description page, and the thread at FAC have led me to believe that the copyright holder hasn't explicitly made this image free. We need for the copyright holder to allow for anyone to use the image in question for any purpose -- redistribution, derivative work, commercial use, and all other use. He can change the licensing on Flickr (it's still too restrictive) so we can update the license here. He can explicitly release it under a license by, for example, using this release template. And if he does it over e-mail, even better -- you can forward his reply to permissions-commons@wikimedia.org for verification. But, at this point, it still looks like the copyright holder is still hesitant to make this image free. -- RG2 06:39, 29 November 2007 (UTC)

I am wanting this image to stay, but I do agree that the evidence of licencing is not suffice at the moment. I have sent a message to the copyright holder (via FlickrMail), to ask if he would change the licence or give permission for the cropped version. It may take some time for him to reply or respond, or he may never respond at all.  SpecialWindler talk (currently offline)  09:25, 29 November 2007 (UTC)
The copyright holder has given me permission via FlickrMail, explicitly. I have updated the image summary page.  SpecialWindler talk (currently offline)  08:53, 30 November 2007 (UTC)

Looks good now. -- RG2 00:19, 1 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Image:Tendler Aron.jpg

Copied from Hebrew wikipedia, but they don't appear to have copyright information. Cool Hand Luke 08:11, 29 November 2007 (UTC)

Google image search reveals only two copies of this image: once is from blog, the other from a group called "The Awareness Center", which has a fair Use disclaimer on its site, and admits some material may be used in spite of the fact that it is copyrighted. Jeffpw (talk) 10:17, 29 November 2007 (UTC)
Sorry, I just assumed that if it was on the Yiddish wiki it was therefore GDFL, and so it was fair game. I think from a legal standpoint this might be valid, but I don't know since it is all part of wikimedia. Lobojo (talk) 14:41, 29 November 2007 (UTC)
We can't just assume that copyrights are GFDL. That's why this page exists. It furthermore fails Wikipedia's fair use policy because subject is a living person, so replacement is obtainable. Cool Hand Luke 17:16, 29 November 2007 (UTC
I dont mind either way, but seeing as the Yiddish wikipedia found the image to be ok, surrly it is they who need to be consulted here. Lobojo (talk) 17:40, 29 November 2007 (UTC)
Image now orphaned as article was deleted. Jeffpw (talk) 06:11, 30 November 2007 (UTC)
Yep. I'm deleting the image. Yiddish wikipedia might also have a copyright problem, but we can't fix that here. Cool Hand Luke 21:26, 30 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Image:Kamenashi Kazuya.jpg

Highly unlikely that this promotional looking image of Japanese pop idol Kazuya Kamenashi is owned by the uploader. Indeed uploader writes image is owned by site http://www.vintagekimono.co.nr/ (though this is also unlikely). The image appears on another internet site as well [1]nadav (talk) 11:58, 29 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Image:MMBB.PNG

No specfic sourcing. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 14:54, 29 November 2007 (UTC)

Not deleted - image is sourced and is tagged for fair use. --B (talk) 01:02, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Image:Julianna_Rose_Mauriello_And_Friend.jpg

Appears to be an WP:SPA using Image:replace this image1.svg to illicitly circumvent WP:NFCC#1. — pd_THOR | =/\= | 15:41, 29 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Image:UE facade.jpg

every image by this uploader has been similar to this one, but this is the only one that is claimed PD. I am assuming that this is actually non-free and mis-tagged. After Midnight 0001 17:11, 29 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Image:Lucy_Lawless1.jpg

Appears to be a publicity shot photo, unlikely to be GFDL self-released. — pd_THOR | =/\= | 06:41, 29 November 2007 (UTC)

  • The uploader claims to be the copyright holder, but based on conversation at her user talk page, I have grave doubts about that. —C.Fred (talk) 17:55, 3 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Image:Lisa_gerrard.jpg

Looks to me like a publicity still. -- RG2 06:45, 29 November 2007 (UTC)

  • The uploader claims to be the copyright holder, but based on discussion at her user talk page, I am skeptical. —C.Fred (talk) 17:55, 3 December 2007 (UTC)
