Template:Free media

No clear purpose, and very very sparingly used. It looks related to Template:Free media (Q7856260) at Wikidata (albeit not itself linked to the item), but since all media on Commons is free then I cannot see what point this would serve. Unless we can see an actual use for the template, we ought to delete it. Rose Abrams (talk) 09:02, 10 March 2026 (UTC)

This picture was used by mistake and obiously taken by mistake: it shows just an ordinary wall and gateway and not Walls and Gateway in Front of Hunter Hall. Compare the coordinates given here and on Wikidata (item Q26438517), see these places in Google Streetview, see https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1145368!

Hold on. The reason I didn't nominate files under Category:Monumento a los Héroes de la Restauración is because I haven't checked what was the copyright law in effect over the Dominican Republic in 1944, the year it was completed. As far as my research is concerned (which led me to revise COM:Dominican Republic lately), the earliest possible law was from 1947 but I also don't know the copyright duration provided by that law and if the protection was retroactive. Online resources concerning Dominican Republican copyright laws before 1981 are lacking. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contributions) 23:50, 10 March 2026 (UTC)

Hold on. The reason I didn't nominate files under Category:Monumento a los Héroes de la Restauración is because I haven't checked what was the copyright law in effect over the Dominican Republic in 1944, the year it was completed. As far as my research is concerned (which led me to revise COM:Dominican Republic lately), the earliest possible law was from 1947 but I also don't know the copyright duration provided by that law and if the protection was retroactive.

File:Chemist Glenn Seaborg (14678590682).jpg

I do not believe that the bot User:FlickreviewR 2 was right when it confirmed this image to be "licensed under the terms of the cc-by-2.0". Firstly, that's not the license that is claimed here, which is PD-USGov-NRC. Secondly, the Flickr post and the file description clearly identifies it as copyrighted, with all rights reserved by American Academy of Achievement, a non-profit organization that is not part of the US government. On their website https://www.flickr.com/people/nrcgov/, NRC explain that "Unless otherwise indicated, the photos posted to the NRC’s Flickr account are in the public domain and may be reproduced freely", but continue: "Some content may contain a specific Copyright Notice. It is your responsibility to contact the copyright owner to obtain permission before making use of this content." That is the case here. I see no indication that permission was given, and I see no reason why CC-BY-2.0 should be applicable, of all things. Renerpho (talk) 22:42, 10 March 2026 (UTC)

I'd like to add that the post by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission's Flickr account is contradictory about copyright, stating "©1996 - 2014 American Academy of Achievement. All Rights Reserved" in the image description (and in the image's EXIF data), while publishing with a note "Some rights reserved" under the generic CC-BY-2.0 license that the account uses for posts that actually belong to NRC.

File:Bordesfoto kabinet-Jetten 2026.jpg

I unfortunately don't believe the image was the Ministry's to license. The picture is most likely made by Rijksvoorlichtingsdienst, more specifically Valerie Kuypers (see here). For the past years, the Rijksvoorlichtingsdienst has refused a free license for their photos, including the bordes scenes. The Ministry of Defence has probably just used the photo from within government, without thinking about the copyright differences (including the fact that they dont mention the photographer). Given this context, I think we should get explicit approval instead. Dajasj (talk) 23:20, 10 March 2026 (UTC)

  • Keep it is released on a government site with valid permission from VRT. A similar case which can applies here is from this [] if we delete valid cc licence from other government websites we can delete all pictures from ministry of defence as it makes their CC licence worthless. If you upload pictures here from ministry of defence you need ask additional permission for portrait rights https://english.defensie.nl/service/copyright and we already have this. We have valid CC licence + permission for their portrait rights. Shadow4dark (talk) 13:57, 11 March 2026 (UTC)
    My point has nothing to do with portrait rights. The government might not have the copyright at all ("Op foto’s, video’s, infographics en alle andere vormen van beeld is de CC0-verklaring niet van toepassing, omdat er auteursrechten van derden op rusten.") and the copyright might still be with the photographer. And if the government did have the copyright, it is most likely not the Defence ministry to license it, given that the Rijksvoorlichtingsdienst has made it and refused reuse.
    The VRT permission applies to all of the website of the Ministry of Defence (I guess), but I would assume it does not apply to pictures where the Ministry does not have copyright and thus ability to license. Dajasj (talk) 17:56, 11 March 2026 (UTC)
    i can't check this but I think it is a individual permission. Shadow4dark (talk) 19:35, 11 March 2026 (UTC)
    It is part of the {{Mindef}} template, so I think it is a generic one. But I will ask a VRT member for clarification. Dajasj (talk) 23:05, 11 March 2026 (UTC)
    Two VRT members have confirmed on Discord that it is a generic permission, not focused in this specific image. Dajasj (talk) 07:49, 12 March 2026 (UTC)
    I checked the ticket and it basically says the same as here: https://www.defensie.nl/service/copyright
    If there's no copyright claim on the website besides a photo (or text), then it falls under CC0.
    The ticket isn't an individual permission, but a general permission for text/image on the website of the Ministry of Defence. Mbch331 (talk) 07:50, 12 March 2026 (UTC)
    At this page of the ministry of defense says "Voor deze website geldt de licentie Creative Commons naamsvermelding/gelijk delen (CC BY-SA 4.0)" (in short "for this website CC BY-SA 4.0 applies - with name attribution"). The exception is "Staat er bij een tekst of afbeelding (zoals foto’s en video’s) dat er auteursrecht op zit? Dan mag u het niet gebruiken" (If a text or image (such as photos and videos) is specifically copyrighted, you are not allowed to use it) - that is, in case a specific (copyright) attribution is mentioned on the applicable page or any visual in that page of the defence website. Furthermore, given the recognizable persons in the photo, "GDPR applies to photos and videos that depict individuals [...] permission must be requested via [email]". It seems to me the latter formally also applies, even though one may consider these persons not to be random individuals that would require specific permission for each and every photo. But that aspect I am not sure of. Make of it what you will, but this implies that the photo itself is free to use under the general MinDef attribution rules by means of the way it is presented on the page (ie without a specific copyright mention). That only leaves the question open whether this falls under GDPR and thus may require specific permission from the comm.dep. of MinDef. Labrang (talk) 12:47, 12 March 2026 (UTC)
    Sorry for doing a long repeat of what Mbch331 already said in short... Labrang (talk) 12:50, 12 March 2026 (UTC)
    @Labrang That was again not my point, my point is that minDef is not the organization that holds the copyright (excl portrait rights and privacy). As I understand it, it is as if you made a picture and I placed it on my website with a CC0 license without having your approval for the license. Dajasj (talk) 22:06, 12 March 2026 (UTC)
    that is something we can only theorize about because we don't know that for a fact. All we know for a fact is the copyright statement and within that frame, the photo is legit to share and legit to upload on commons (except the potential GDPR clause which may not he applicable in amy case). The rest is only hypothesis, even if we would consider a certain scenario as you describe as a likely one. We haven't established that as a fact. In order to do that, we should get confirmation from MinDef. Lacking that and still concluding the photo would not be allowed to upload to commons, lacking the correct permissions, would open up disputing all MinDef photos. Labrang (talk) 23:48, 12 March 2026 (UTC)
    I disagree. In this specific case there is evidence that minDef might not be the copyright holder (there are a lot of minDef photos without this doubt). To respect the copyright, we should err on the side of caution, until we establish as a fact that minDef rightfully did so. In any case, I have sent a mail to the Rijksvoorlichtingsdienst. Dajasj (talk) 00:07, 13 March 2026 (UTC)
I think the template used is incorrect. {{Mindef}} should be replaced {{Rijksoverheid}}, which lists the raised itssues about 3rd party copyright of phones made after 2015. https://www.rijksoverheid.nl/copyright provides a means to contact them about copyright: https://www.rijksoverheid.nl/contact/informatie-rijksoverheid/e-mail-sturen. It might be useful to ask about the other bordesfoto's on https://www.rijksoverheid.nl/regering/over-de-regering/kabinetten-sinds-1945. Either those could be used as well or there may be more photos on Commons that have the same issue as this file. Arancycn (talk) 18:15, 12 March 2026 (UTC)
This can be bypassed if they give explicit permission for GDPR/portrait rights. However, we don't have this. Shadow4dark (talk) 19:02, 12 March 2026 (UTC)
Again, this isnt about gdpr or portrait rights. A free license doesn't infringe upon these rights. This is about the rights of the photographer and/or the rights of the RVD. Dajasj (talk) 22:09, 12 March 2026 (UTC)
You can assume that, but you need to establish that as a fact. Otherwise you basically dispute the entire CC0 model of third party institutions. I am not quite sure that would be your intention. Labrang (talk) 23:51, 12 March 2026 (UTC)
RVD has refused the bordesfotos as recently as last month, so I see no point in that at the moment Dajasj (talk) 22:07, 12 March 2026 (UTC)
(The earlier ones are correct because the copyright statement was different back then) Dajasj (talk) 22:13, 12 March 2026 (UTC)
The template {{Rijksoverheid}} has a clear cut off in 2015, all newer photos require explicit permission of the RVD (and you say they're refusing it) or from the photographer (in all these cases: Valerie Kuypers). It her permission cannot be obtained this bordesfoto has to be removed as well.
 Delete, unless permission can be obtained from the photographer Valerie Kuypers. Arancycn (talk) 12:01, 13 March 2026 (UTC)
I assume the same argument goes for File:Bordesfoto kabinet-Jetten 2026 (cropped).jpg, a cropped version of this image. Arancycn (talk) 09:40, 23 March 2026 (UTC)
