- на русском языке:
- Да, я приношу свои извинения и отзываю свои слова по поводу судебных преследования, но нужен ваша помощь, и выйти ко мне навстречу для помощи, как я не особо опытный в этих правилах как и большинство в этом мире, как там слишком много непонятный информации, правила слишком суровые и усложнённые не понимают в этом простые люди, поэтому правило потребуется поменять ибо они похожи на диктатуру цензуры которое нарушает конвенции по правам человека.
- Ладно за фотографии, но если вдруг в любое информация размещено в Википедии вопреки их правилам, но те данные информации защищены интересами государства, то его удаление администратором данного гражданина той государства может быть и реально привлечь к ответственности соответствующий законом.
- Потому что все международные разновидные организации по конвенциям обязаны чтить местные законы каждого государства, ибо мировое сообщество состоит из разновидных народов мира который имеет свои собственные государства ради своей безопасности, а государство мира входит в ООН, а ООН это высший международный орган которая гарантирует безопасность человечества но к сожалению в рамках рекомендации а не юридическом форме. Всё равно решает судьбу человечество только власти государства мира, также по их решению имеет право заблокировать все счета международной компании если та компания совершил действия против интересов государства, но страшный того что институции правоохранительных органов имеет право описать в уголовном деле любое точка зрения как называется фабрикация уголовных дел, и судебная система той государства одна из самых систем с самим государствой, не имеет независимой точек управления.
- Понятно по точкам международного сознания о нейтральности компании к политике и ко всему другим темам, и придерживаясь своим стандартным принцем, но к сожалению данные всех видов компании, фондов и организации не защищены от действие правоохранительных органов любого государства, Я бы международное право не гарантирует защиты юридически как это рекомендательная форма а не юридическое.
- Хочу рассказать по поводу Википедии русской версии - там сплошная пропаганда России, пропагандирует переписанную историю, неправильные понятия для других людей мира, оправдывает колонизацию и оккупацию, оправдывают действие России в войне против Украины, и там несёт характер пропаганды империализма и величие России. Википедия-мета не смогла уследить это действие из-за большой объёма информации из-за маскировочных слов информации. Википедия русская версия попала под влиянием органов власти России, поэтому там только больше всего ложные данные информации с правдивой информацией которые оправдывает действие России и защищает его интересы
- Но мы должны знать что мы простые люди и не забыть об этом, мы не боты системные а живые люди, мы по природе можем понимать друг друга а не делать по записи по требованиями как боты.
- На английском языке:
- Yes, I apologize and retract my comments regarding legal action, but I need your help, and please reach out to me for assistance. I'm not particularly experienced with these rules, like most people in this world. There's too much confusing information out there, the rules are too strict and complicated, and ordinary people don't understand them. Therefore, the rules will need to be changed, as they resemble a censorship dictatorship that violates human rights conventions.
- Okay, so about the photos, but if any information is posted on Wikipedia contrary to their rules, but that information is protected by state interests, then its removal by the administrator of that citizen of that state could actually lead to prosecution under the relevant law. Because all international organizations, by convention, are obligated to respect the local laws of each state. The global community consists of diverse nations that have their own states for their own security, and each state is a member of the UN, which is the highest international body that guarantees the security of humanity, but unfortunately, through recommendations and not legal forms. Still, only the authorities of each state decide the fate of humanity. They also have the right to block all accounts of an international company if that company has committed actions against the interests of the state. The terrible thing is that law enforcement agencies have the right to express any viewpoint in a criminal case—what is called fabricating criminal cases—and the judicial system of that state, one of the very systems that governs the state itself, has no independent control. :It's understandable from the perspective of international awareness about a company's neutrality in politics and other topics, and adhering to its standard principles. Unfortunately, the data of all types of companies, foundations, and organizations is not protected from the actions of law enforcement agencies of any state. I wouldn't say international law guarantees legal protection, as it's advisory and not legal.
- I'd like to comment on the Russian version of Wikipedia—it's full of Russian propaganda, promoting a rewritten history, misrepresenting concepts to other people around the world, justifying colonization and occupation, justifying Russia's actions in the war against Ukraine, and it's full of propaganda for imperialism and Russia's greatness. Wikipedia meta was unable to track this action due to the large volume of information and the use of camouflage language. The Russian version of Wikipedia has fallen under the influence of Russian authorities, so it contains mostly false information alongside true information that justifies Russia's actions and protects its interests. But we must remember that we are ordinary people and not forget this. We are not system bots, but living people. We are naturally capable of understanding each other, not just writing things down on demand, like bots. Dmitro vl (talk) 07:19, 13 June 2026 (UTC)
- I don't think that making a political case out of this will help as an argument in this deletion request. Wiki Commons is following copyright rules and COM:EDUSE, and, in so far, even propaganda would be OK to be uploaded on Commons as long as it is not protected by copyright or as long as it is uploaded under a free license.
- I'd also question the ruwiki propaganda claim, as recently a pro-Russian editor got indefinitely banned from ruwiki, and then the same editor got banned from English Wikipedia after admins from ruwiki chimed in on the discussion and informed their English colleagues about the editor's problematic conduct on ruwiki.
- You would be better of following Ahonc / Anatolii's advice about adding a CC license to the source website. However, even that would not really address the issue entirely given that the photos were taken by someone else: we would need a COM:VRT permission from the photographer. And even if Commons receives a valid VRT permission, the images might still get deleted on COM:EDUSE or COM:SCOPE grounds because the political movement/party in question is quite unnotable so far. If one searches for "партия Свобода Нации Северии" or "Движение Северский Край" on Google, the search results are only social media and the party's own website.

How do we know this was published without notice? Magog the Ogre (talk) (contribs) 03:06, 12 June 2026 (UTC)
Keep While I would agree that evidence of {{PD-US-no notice}} is insufficient, I checked for copyright renewals by Leon Dolice and was unable to find any. He seems to have been an independent commercial artist who sold their work to the public, so assuming contemporary publication is reasonable. Therefore, {{PD-US-no renewal}}. Based5290 (talk) 03:18, 12 June 2026 (UTC)
Keep Based5290 says pretty much what I would say. Overwhelmingly, U.S. art of this sort from that era is now in the public domain. Even if notice was given, it still would have required renewal. Given very solid documentation of all renewals, it would be easy to prove if it had a copyright renewed. Lacking that, PD is an entirely reasonable assumption. If someone wants to change the tag to the weaker claim of {{PD-US-not renewed}} that is fine with me, but it changes nothing about the current legal situation. - Jmabel ! talk 04:29, 12 June 2026 (UTC)
- "U.S. art of this sort from that era is now in the public domain." - only published art, yes.
- "Even if notice was given, it still would have required renewal" - presuming it was published, yes. But art quite frequently was never published. Selling the art or putting it in a museum doesn't count. Limited publication doesn't count.
- "Lacking that, PD is an entirely reasonable assumption." - that gets COM:EVIDENCE backwards.
- "If someone wants to change the tag to the weaker claim of {{PD-US-not renewed}}" there's no evidence of that either.
- Magog the Ogre (talk) (contribs) 17:30, 12 June 2026 (UTC)
Selling the art doesn't count [as publication]
Yes it does? Limited publication requires distribution to a limited class of people for a limited purpose without right to further reproduction. Sale of art to anyone who could pony up the money for it is the exact opposite of a limited class of people. Once sale occured, physical control of the art left the copyright holder's hands and entered into the public dominion, free to be resold (per first sale doctrine) and exhibited without permission of the copyright holder. The only way the copyright holder could exert control at this point is by forbidding reproduction, which is exactly what statutory copyright protection is for.

File:McGreevy display at Filene's Department Store - DPLA - 0f4eef0258407257e30c458d784e229f.jpg
This file was uploaded in 2021 from the collections of the Boston Public Library, when it was originally marked as in the public domain. At some point in the intervening years, the source institution revised its copyright status to CC-BY-NC-ND, not eligible for Commons upload, and also now states "Rights status not evaluated", which is just generally confusing. The creator is listed as a (presumably) private photography studio, meaning if the date of 1939 is correct, there is still a chance it is copyrighted (especially if unpublished). I'd appreciate a review by the Commons community. Dominic (talk) 03:43, 12 June 2026 (UTC)
Question Are public domain claims revocable or not? Dabmasterars [EN/RU] (talk/uploads) 08:41, 12 June 2026 (UTC)
- I don’t see how that would work. It’s not like a copyright license when you released the rights and want to take them back. If you stated it was in the public domain when it wasn’t, then you never owned it anyway. The question is still what the copyright status is. Dominic (talk) 22:25, 12 June 2026 (UTC)
- The Boston Public Library never held a copyright on this work; their statements about its copyright status are a best estimate, not a binding statement.
- It's difficult to evaluate the overall copyright status of this image. Not only is the copyright status of the photo itself unknown, but the photos depicted in it are also copyrightable works whose status is unknown. We should probably

- @Pollever, my bad. See Commons:Copyright rules by territory/Belgium#Freedom of panorama, {{FoP-Belgium}} requires a work "to be placed on a permanent basis in public places". Whether a museum is a public place is unclear, though the notes attached to the draft of the law suggested that wasn't the intention. And "permanent" seems like a stretch as well in this case. And it requires that "this reproduction or communication does not infringe upon the normal exploitation of the work" which is more difficult to argue when you take a photo of a photo. - Alexis Jazz ping plz 09:58, 12 June 2026 (UTC)

Independently of the bad taste of using this SA ugliness for present-day illustration of the song, the copyright status of the recording is unknown. Fut.Perf. ☼ 09:38, 12 June 2026 (UTC)
- Oppose "Based on Google results" After searching, there's no results besides AI - which can not disclose the source. With a claim like that, evidence of the quote claiming it to be Nazi would have to be provided, as otherwise it's just empty words, no more viable than saying German should be killed off as a language since only Neo-Nazis speak it - no proof that all germans are neo-nazis, empty words. Also, it's a old public recording from before WW2, had it on my PC for about 3 years before uploading it here, sang in Breslau. : Further, using words such as "ugliness" to describe an Anthem of a region is in even further miss-taste and is even more disgusting than the claims you have provided, which as said before, are all made up by you with no sufficient proof. Mazurek Dabrowskiego anthem of Poland - also uses an older recording played instrumentally, the German Empire anthem does as well, and so does the British one.
- So each of your claims are false, incorrect, misleading, and deliberately disgusting.
- Shame, such hatred coming for no reason, please do not overinflate your ego, as I've seen you multiple times now trying to dictate multiple wikis where your jurisdiction does not reach.
- Gutzalat (talk) 21:27, 13 June 2026 (UTC)
- The file description (of the first file) mentions "Musikzug unter Leitung von Musikzugführer Rudolf Brühl". That is not a sufficient source declaration allowing us to assess copyright status, as would have been your duty to provide. However, "Musikzugführer Rudolf Brühl" was a Nazi marching band leader in the 1930s who produced a number of such recordings of marching songs with the "Musikzug der SA-Standarte 9" and a choir of the "13th Battalion" of the SA. Some of them, including this song and several others of pure Nazi provenance (like "Die Hitlerleute" by en:Horst Wessel), can be found listed here (search for "Brühl" in the search box in the bottom right). That listing also includes credits, to "Max Rostock" (not sure if it's this one) and de:Wilhelm Gabriel. While these two are certainly not the creators of the song itself, which is of anonymous authorship and of course considerably older, the credits might have been meant for the specific lyrics and musical arrangement. I really don't know what the copyright status of such an item may be, but if those guys count it isn't PD-70 yet. The second file is claimed to be from a German police band from 1939, so likely of similar status. Fut.Perf. ☼ 15:23, 14 June 2026 (UTC)

Delete per nom Dronebogus (talk) 19:24, 13 June 2026 (UTC)
Comment, I had an unrelated conversation with u:Theklan about a session I'm organising at Wikimania and he mentioned this discussion as an example of a contentious issue that has to do with AI-generated images. It's clear that these images are not used on "Project pages created by and edited only by the file's uploader" - last time I checked the page in question had 4 contributors, so per COM:INUSE they should be kept. More importantly, this goes against the spirit of wiki projects - it costs us nothing to keep these images and support a local initiative - Basque-language Kids Wikipedia. Alaexis (talk) 19:47, 14 June 2026 (UTC)
- There ain’t no such thing as a free lunch. The “cost” isn’t money (which as we know the foundation has infinite amounts of) or even storage space (the foundation similarly is in possession of the Server Farm of Babel) but rather supporting big tech’s campaign to enshittify the entire web by replacing all human content with AI slop plagiarized from human authors without compensation. That goes against the spirit of wiki projects. Dronebogus (talk) 11:37, 15 June 2026 (UTC)
- There's no consensus on that point. The rules to upload and keep images in Commons are quite extense, and these images abide to all those rules. The fact that you don't like them, or that you think that the political damage created is larger than the benefit is not an argument for deleting valid images. Theklan (talk) 14:04, 15 June 2026 (UTC)
- Well, this is your opinion but the guiding principle of Commons has been inclusionist - as long as a piece of media is used in one of the projects and doesn't violate certain minimal requirements it can be published here. If you want to change the rules the right place to propose it is not a deletion request discussion. Alaexis (talk) 15:18, 15 June 2026 (UTC)
- Full disclosure: I may also give a talk at Alaexis's Wikimania preconference. Yes, capitalism wants to use AI for exploitive purposes, but you should also consider that Karl Marx wrote on automation. Technology like all knowledge is neither inherently good or evil, it can be used for good or evil depending on the intent of those who use it. Automation also could serve a purpose in wiki projects, it's up to us to which degree we use it and we can require that ultimately a human must be held responsible for its use or misuse.

- On 13 Jun 2026, 12:54 am AEST, Jianfa Tsai’s email address tsai88jianfa@gmail.com received an email from wiki@wikimedia.org to mass delete Jianfa Tsai’s uploaded image contributions on the Wikimedia website [1]. This could potentially be a form of political or cyberattack by Jianfa’s enemies since the trigger began with an anonymous nomination. What the enemies do not know is that this was part of Jianfa’s prediction. The purpose of uploading Jianfa’s billion-dollar insights is so that the government, Federal Police, intelligence agencies and crime syndicates monitoring Jianfa’s home devices, internet, as well as the folks that own Australia’s telcos and the world wide web infrastructure, will have multiple copies of Jianfa’s data and know about Jianfa’s intent regarding the copyright use of the data. Even if the data is deleted from public view or supposedly from Wikimedia archives, these insights will eventually find their way in various forms mysteriously in different countries globally in the form of implemented products and services, just like the similar processes that were seeded in Singapore decades ago. The chess plays of enemies or criminals are not rocket science; their variables and moves are limited in range, number, and permutations. Please share this with global management and add to the knowledge base of Federal Police and Intelligence agencies.

File:Murumendi pilota eskola.jpg
This file was initially tagged by Alexis Jazz as Copyvio (copyvio) and the most recent rationale was: https://goierri.hitza.eus/ekitaldiak/jaiak-beasaingo-loinatz-jaiak-9/ Although the linked website has the sings of a CC-BY-ND license at the bottom, clicking on it shows CC-BY-SA-4.0. Lymantria (talk) 20:31, 12 June 2026 (UTC)
- Lymantria, that's interesting. I hadn't noticed that site had a CC license at all. This file was claimed as own work and I found it on the web, that was it.
The file was uploaded for w:eu:Murumendi pilota eskola which doesn't exist (yet). Murumendi is a half-mile high mountain, pilota is some ball sport and eskola is school. https://www.instagram.com/murumendi.pelota/ seems related and has 251 followers.
Given that this image simply shows a bunch of kids in front of a wall (not a display of the sport) from a school that probably isn't in scope on any Wikimedia project beyond Wikidata, it appears to me this image probably isn't within our COM:SCOPE anyway, regardless of license. If images with more educational value are found on that site someone may need to inquire about the license icons and whether the license also applies to all images. - Alexis Jazz ping plz 01:42, 13 June 2026 (UTC)

No historical source has been provided to demonstrate PD status and it's unlikely that there's such a source because the Siberian Republic (1918) is not a thing, and only existed for a short time and seemingly didn't have any official state symbols. Furthermore, it's clear that the uploader is not the author of this proposed CoA because the image was available on the internet before its upload to Commons (see for example this website where the image url indicates that it was uploaded in 2017).

Keep A similar coat of arms appears on http://kolchakiya.ru/heraldry/Coats%20of%20arms%20of%20Democratic%20counterrevolution.htm and is therefore clearly too old to be protected by copyright. Поль Крол Злой Диктатор (talk) 23:53, 12 June 2026 (UTC)
- Fair point, so it does exist and is a 1672 work. But the file is mislabeled as the CoA is actually the one of the Kingdom of Siberia, not the Republic of Siberia.
Keep and {{Rename}}. - Instead the file that needs to be
Deleteed is File:Coat of arms of The Siberian Republic.svg because it was never an official state symbol and thus not {{PD-RU-exempt}} and it was created in 1918 and therefore can also not profit from {{PD-RusEmpire}} as the cut-off year for this is 1917. But at least thanks to that source we now know the artist to be Г.А. Ильин (ru:Ильин, Глеб Александрович) (1889—1968). So, undelete in 2039 (or 2043 if the longer copyright term for those who participated/worked in the time of the Great Patriotic War applies). Nakonana (talk) 15:45, 13 June 2026 (UTC)

Ich lass mal einen Ballon steigen, als mögliches Exempel für alle Dateien dieses "users"ː Kann eine Personengruppe überhaut als "User" und somit als Hochlader auftreten? Wer hat im Zweifel das Copyright am jeweiligen Bild? Müssen möglicherweise alle Dateien mit einem personenbezogenen Ticket versehen sein? GerritR (talk) 21:31, 12 June 2026 (UTC)
- Legitime Frage. Die Bilder sind von Studierenden und mir selbst im Rahmen einer Lehrveranstaltung gemacht worden, die individuelle Urheberschaft kann ich nicht mehr seriös rekonstruieren. Ein Account sollte nur von Einzelpersonen genutzt werden (wobei wir bei Institutionen, glaube ich, Ausnahmen machen). Probleme hinsichtlich der Nachnutzbarkeit hingegen sehe ich keine, Gründe für eine Löschung auch nicht. Was denkst Du, ist das Problem, und wie könnte man es lösen? Gruß CRolker (talk) 19:38, 13 June 2026 (UTC)
- Ein VRT Ticket in dem die jeweiligen Autoren angeben, dass dieser Account autorisiert ist ihre Bilder hochzuladen wäre wahrscheinlich nicht verkehrt.
- Was mich ein bisschen stutzig macht, sind die etwas widersprüchlich Angaben in der EXIF Tabelle:
- Copyright holder: CC-BY-SA
- Online copyright statement: https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0/legalcode
- Usage terms: CC BY-NC-SA

- CC-BY-SA ist natürlich richtig. Entgegenstehende Angaben müssen uns durchgerutscht sein, kann man das noch nachträglich ändern? Gruß CRolker / Heraldikbamberg (talk) 07:48, 16 June 2026 (UTC)
- Ja, kann man.

Files in Category:Mass grave of Soviet soldiers at Petropavlivske cemetery, Sumy
The cemetery dates to either 1967 or 1970. It is most likely the statue was erected at the same time. The listed authors are architect М. Т. Ільченко and sculptor А. А. Івченко. Since the Ukrainian copyright law does not permit images of architecture and monuments with "independent economic value," Wikimedia Commons cannot host these freely licensed images.

Files in Category:Sadko fountain, Sumy
w:uk:Фонтан Садко tells us that the sculptural fountain dates to 1985. It is most likely that the artist or sculptor has not yet died for more than 70 years for this monument to fall out of copyright. Since the Ukrainian copyright law does not permit images of monuments and landmarks with independent economic value, Wikimedia Commons cannot host these freely licensed images.

File:D23 Expo 2011 - RideMaker custom Cars remote control area (6075263675).jpg
Probable copyright violation per COM:TOYS. Removing the car models also removes the educational usefulness of that image. Grand-Duc (talk) 23:56, 12 June 2026 (UTC)
Keep. I think the cars are de minimis. The title clearly suggests that the image is focused on the remote control area as a whole. IronGargoyle (talk) 12:19, 11 July 2026 (UTC)
