I was the one that have uploaded this image.
The original image can be found here:
https://photos.google.com/share/AF1QipMVcYLBhyaFUs8MPLoQRk6A3_jM8kURffQHAqwInvoewhWeIACPfK-dZ7WcGtYFQg?key=MG9RcU9DdHU4bER2MFlyVTNzazNZSUE2cjdIOVRR
I wanted to avoid uploading an image with people's faces without their consent, so I used AI to remove them.
What's wikipedia's policy around this matter?
In the past people have uploaded images with blurry faces, I think this is somewhat similar, but nicer looking.
Before uploading the image I have made sure it looks similar enough to the place I visited. Harel.mazor (talk) 07:04, 13 May 2026 (UTC)
@Omphalographer any comments on the above? Is this a one way conversation where you just send a notice about an image deletion? I'm not familiar with how things work here to be honest... Harel.mazor (talk) 20:28, 8 June 2026 (UTC)

File:Wappen Hilgertshausen.png

Wappen fiktiv, Lizenz daher auch nicht korrekt Sukaq (talk) 04:45, 13 May 2026 (UTC)

Also ganz fiktiv ist es nicht: https://www.hilgertshausen-tandern.de/seite/744256/gemeindewappen.html
In das Wappen der 1978 gebildeten Einheitsgemeinde sind Symbole für die beiden Ortsteile aufgenommen worden: Die silbernen Parten erinnern an die Familie Lösch, der von 1517 bis 1813 die Hofmark (Niedergericht) Hilgertshausen gehörte. Naticarl (talk) 16:32, 3 June 2026 (UTC)
ergänzend: das Wappen ist auch noch hier verwendet: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/L%C3%B6sch_von_Hilkertshausen Naticarl (talk) 16:35, 3 June 2026 (UTC)
und entstammt aus folgender Quelle: Martin Carl Wilhelm von Wölckern: Beschreibungen aller Wappen der fürstlichen, gräflichen, freiherrlichen und adelichen jetzlebenden Familien im Königreich Baiern, Band 1. Nürnberg 1821, S. 147–148. Naticarl (talk) 16:36, 3 June 2026 (UTC)
es ist fiktiv in dem Sinne, dass es nicht das Wappen der Gemeinde Hilgertshausen war. Sondern halt ggf. das Wappen der Familie Lösch.
Man könnte ja auch mal meinen Kommentar auf der Diskussionsseite zur Datei lesen. Dort steht die Blasonierung des tatsächlichen Wappens der früheren Gemeinde Hilgertshausen. Sukaq (talk) 03:39, 4 June 2026 (UTC)
Das erklärt zwar (wenn auch ohne Beleg) warum es von der Seite Hilgertshausen gelöscht werden sollte.
Warum aber auch von Lösch? Naticarl (talk) 13:35, 5 June 2026 (UTC)

I'm no CoA expert, all I can say is that these look similar to https://fijiembassy.jp/profile/national-emblems/, if it is own work it would at least be a derivative work.

"The Republic of Fiji Military Forces (RFMF) is issuing a stern warning to the public: refrain from unauthorized use or display of the RFMF badge. Violation of this directive is considered a breach of the RFMF Act 1949, the Public Order Act 1969, and the Crimes Act 2009, which may lead to both civil and criminal charges."

Should we keep this?

- Alexis Jazz ping plz 06:46, 13 May 2026 (UTC)

The files listed in the first half are clearly not DWs of the linked source. They are significantly different. In fact, the linked website is using the vector files here on Commons, which are freely licensed. In regards to the military symbols, "unauthorised use or display" is vague and not actually a copyright statement. Misuse of military emblems, whether copyrighted or not, is a common stipulation in many countries. I see no valid grounds for deletion. Fry1989 eh? 15:26, 13 May 2026 (UTC)

File:Les saisons dans la Cathédrale de Strasbourg.png

This file was initially tagged by SyntaxTerror as Copyvio (copyvio) and the most recent rationale was: This is obviously not {{Own}} but a scan of a book. The names of the authors are under each photo : J.C. Hatterer & D. Emmel.
Converted to regular DR, per protest by uploader (File_talk:Les_saisons_dans_la_Cathédrale_de_Strasbourg.png). However, a VRT-confirmed permission is necessary. -- Túrelio (talk) 10:29, 13 May 2026 (UTC)

 Delete. The uploader Rosart pretends that J.C. Hatterer & D. Emmel. are his friends, and that he has their permission , but nevertheless, he claimed that the work was his own. The fact that he made a scan from a published book instead of uploading the photographs themselves is a clue against him.
File:Cathedr Stras. rayonVert02.jpg, File:Cathedr Stras. rayonVert01.jpg, File:Rayon blanc Cathédrale de Strasbourg.jpg are also works by Hatterer, but Rosart upoladed them using {{PD-self}}, with no confirmed permission.
He has been causing problems on frwiki for nearly 20 years, and many of his uploads have been disputed or deleted, this should be a warning sign that he's not acting in good faith. Şÿℵדαχ₮ɘɼɾ๏ʁ 13:24, 13 May 2026 (UTC)

  •  Comment No toys; I presume the toilet seat cover is meant. I'll let others judge if putting eyes and a line representing a smile on a toilet seat cover makes it over TOO. -- Infrogmation of New Orleans (talk) 16:58, 13 May 2026 (UTC)
    • (not a vote) Infrogmation, do its legs have a utilitarian function? Also, what's the country of origin we should consider? Presumably the country where the company that made it is headquartered?
      I feel like I'm taking this too seriously, but the distraction is welcome. - Alexis Jazz ping plz 18:41, 13 May 2026 (UTC)
  • Keep as I feel it isn't specifically a toy. As a toilet seat cover, it is not played with. I feel it is more of a decoration. Ktkvtsh (talk) 19:44, 13 May 2026 (UTC)
    • Ktkvtsh, it's not about whether something is a toy or not. Kites may be considered toys, but they are utilitarian. Being decorative is exactly the quality of something potentially copyrightable, no matter if that's a toy, statue, painting or teapot. This toilet seat cover should probably be judged as if it were a stuffed animal. However I'm not ruling out that some of the decorative parts might have a function that we're unaware of. For example if the legs have metal wire in them so you could bend them around the seat to stop the cover from sliding. - Alexis Jazz ping plz 07:05, 14 May 2026 (UTC)
      • As I remember it, the cover was just cloth with an elastic band to attach it to the toilet seat lid. -- Infrogmation of New Orleans (talk) 11:09, 14 May 2026 (UTC)
