[edit] January 27

[edit] Image:Arden.jpg

Looks a bit too clean to be a self created image. Is also being used in a hoax article. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters(Broken clamshellsOtter chirps) 00:23, 27 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Image:Kripalu_yoga_desai.jpg

Studio potrait found here. I do not believe the uploader took the image as claimed. Nv8200p talk 00:51, 27 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Image:Kristín_Anna_Valtýsdóttir.jpg

No evidence that uploader is the author of the image and has rights to release the image sourced to a commercial website. Nv8200p talk 01:07, 27 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Image:ClassInSession Front.jpg

Apparently an album cover. No explanation as to how this can be PD-self. Corvus cornixtalk 05:34, 27 January 2008 (UTC)

The last thing I want to do is delete a valid image and my sincerest apologies if these are legitimate, but they really look like a screenshot from online videos. If it was taken by a camera, there would at least be metadata like the camera model and the date it was snapped. Also, the low resolution and lack of description (like concert, event, and specific date) leads me to believe these could be copyvios. — Spellcast (talk) 15:27, 27 January 2008 (UTC)

They aren't copyvios, the reason they don't have metadata is because I edited them with Microsoft Paint & Microsoft Word, and that got rid of the metadata. My camera sucks really bad, so the pictures always turn out bad quality, and that's why I increase their contrast (or however you spell it). And they're low resolution because I crop them since there's usually way too much background on them. So please don't delete them. Rappingwonders (talk) 16:12, 27 January 2008 (UTC)
Apart from the quality, I thought they could've been screenshots because of some YouTube videos. For example, Image:Hurricanechris.jpg looks to be from here and Image:Plies.jpg from here (they've got the same clothes and background). What camera model was used? Spellcast (talk) 17:00, 27 January 2008 (UTC)
I used a Zenit camera, and unfortunately, mine really SUCKS when it comes to quality. Rappingwonders (talk) 17:14, 27 January 2008 (UTC)
So please don't delete them, and let's close this discussion. Rappingwonders (talk) 22:12, 28 January 2008 (UTC)
Would you be able to upload the full-resolution/unedited pics to show the metadata? Spellcast (talk) 16:59, 29 January 2008 (UTC)
SHIT! If I had known you were gonna ask me to do that, I wouldn't have deleted them months ago! SHIT! Rappingwonders (talk) 21:03, 29 January 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete all per nom. Noting the user who discuss above was blocked for sock. Tasc0 It's a zero! 05:29, 2 February 2008 (UTC)

Found same image here. Zagalejo^^^ 19:18, 27 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Image:Orochimaru90.jpg

Original description was "orochimaru in the akatsuki"; source was "friend"; date was "1/27/08"; author was "not to be disclosed"; and permission was "verbal"; and the copyright tag indicated that it was licensed for use on Wikipedia only. The image was subsequently deleted by East718 under CSD I3. The original uploader then reuploaded the same image, this time with no description, source "self-made", date "1/27/08", author "me", permission "by myself", and copyright tag {{PD-self}}. None of this information is likely to be correct; the image illustrates a character in an anime series, and there is a watermark at the bottom of the image that says "WHITE ANGEL 2006". —Bkell (talk) 23:23, 27 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Image:AntonDiffring regalcinemacorp.JPG

Claimed {{cc-by-sa-2.5}}, and source is given as Regal Entertainment, but this is a screenshot from Where Eagles Dare, a copyrighted film, that simply has a Regal watermark placed on it. No evidence is given that Regal has any rights to release this image under a Creative Commons license (or even that they have claimed to do so). —Bkell (talk) 03:29, 27 January 2008 (UTC)
