Froggy says Happy New Year

favor?

Hey can you tell me what you think about this user's five or six uploads: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Crazyforfeet

https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:ListFiles&user=Crazyforfeet&ilshowall=1

Taken individually they arent so bad. Taken as a group... at minimum the 13 year old girl description is problematic.

I'm inclided to nominate them for deletion as a group. Unlikely to be "own work" is the first rationale that comes to mind, but I don't know what is proper in this case. Any advice? Jerimee (talk) 21:38, 4 January 2026 (UTC)

Thanks for the notice. (IMO foot fetishism by itself is neither here nor there - to each their own, as long as it's consensual.) Reverse image searches quickly showed the majority to be online elsewhere before uploader's claimed creation date, or in a couple of cases part of a series of same model shown to be copyvios. I promptly deleted those. I've listed the one remaining as a deletion request. Cheers, -- Infrogmation of New Orleans (talk) 23:31, 4 January 2026 (UTC)

NOMA Sculpture Garden

Hi Infrogmation! Hope all's well. First, just adding to the thank yous for all the amazing photos you've contributed over the years! Relatedly, I saw you've uploaded a range of photos from the New Orleans Museum of Art and its sculpture garden. Was wondering if you have any closer images of these benches and chairs by Scott Burton, installed in the sculpture garden (I think they've been moved around over the years). They're public domain as useful objects/simple furniture - I've been expanding the EN Wiki article on Burton and adding a bunch of images to Commons of his public furniture pieces. Lots of his works have been removed/altered/destroyed, so any documentation we can get while his works are still installed would be amazing.

Absolutely no worries if you don't have any photos - either way, thanks for your time, and happy new year! (is it too deep in January to say that? meh, it stays) 19h00s (talk) 01:10, 25 January 2026 (UTC)

I've tended to avoid uploading works by modern artists to avoid possible derivative work copyright problems. -- Infrogmation of New Orleans (talk) 03:46, 25 January 2026 (UTC)

Hm, I wasn't aware of the stone benches being sculptures. They look rather geometric to me. I'll let others judge if incidental inclusion is problematic. Thanks. -- Infrogmation of New Orleans (talk) 03:51, 25 January 2026 (UTC)

Sorry I think my back-to-back messages here were confusing (totally my fault, didn't mean to do that!)

My first comment above was about the benches and chairs in the sculpture garden - indeed, those are definitely not copyrightable. They are "sculptures" by Scott Burton, but they are useful objects and too simple for copyright.

When I was searching for photos on Commons of the sculpture garden to find images of the benches/chairs and categorize them accordingly, I saw the photo that's linked below in a deletion request - the sculpture at issue in that photo is the sculpture in the water on a pedestal, not the chairs in the background.

Again, I'm sorry about the confusion here - my fault, I nominated the file below without realizing it was your upload and would add a template here! 19h00s (talk) 03:53, 25 January 2026 (UTC)

Thanks for the reply, no need to apologize - more informed eyes on subjects the better. I try to be aware of DW but I can't claim to never make mistakes. That wasn't one of my photos, I copied it here from Flickr, looked to me like a general view of reflecting pool, but you're right that the full res version does look to show a modern sculpture. I've replied on the deletion request suggesting the photo be cropped or the DW portion blurred. Cheers, -- Infrogmation of New Orleans (talk) 03:57, 25 January 2026 (UTC)

Regarding the deletion of my posts

I am writing to you regarding the recent flags on my contributions (look at Files uploaded by Areylle at Commons:Deletion requests/2026/02/22). I understand that User:Dronebogus, has initiated a deletion request for my posts, saying that the content is fetish-oriented. As you are an administrator, I wish to address this matter directly via this talk page. I myself agree to the removal of the files in question if you see this as breaking the policy of Wikimedia Commons; this includes File:Dancer wearing unitard and pointe shoes.png, File:Dancer wearing unitard.png, and File:Crytek booth-babe from Games Territory 2008 (black suit edit).png.

My sole intent was to contribute to the repository, and I wanted to apologize for this. Also, I forgot to mention that these images are attributed to their respective copyright holders; I acknowledge that compliance with Wikimedia Commons policy is paramount. If you find these materials to be non-compliant, I fully support your authority to delete them from the record, and I will follow strictly to these standards in future contributions.

On my end, I am also curious, is a single administrator vote sufficient for removal, or does it require a collective vote? Also, does the uploader’s formal consent (which is me in question) expedite the decommissioning of a file? And thank you if you're reading this. Areylle (talk) 05:54, 23 February 2026 (UTC)

• Good day. See Commons:Deletion requests for an overview of the procedures. Any discussion about whether particular files should be deleted belongs in the listing for those files. While admins can speedy delete files for a limited number of specific reasons (for example clear blatant copyright violation), No, one admin favoring deletion of something for being out of project scope does not mean automatic deletion (it's an experienced user expressing their viewpoint, and sometimes admins disagree). As to your last question, yes, the uploader agreeing to deletion generally does expedite deletion. I'm glad to know your intent was to contribute in good faith, perhaps in the future you can find other ways of doing so that other users do not find objectionable. Thanks for asking. Cheers, -- Infrogmation of New Orleans (talk) 12:43, 23 February 2026 (UTC)

  Thanks for clearing my confusion. Also, I'd like to point out that some of these images are actually currently providing educational value, as they are already being used in Wikipedia articles, for example. ユニタード (unitard) in Japanese Wikipedia (this one clearly fits with the context of the article), and also this one, Pakaian lateks (latex clothing), in Malay Wikipedia, the main one I'm active in, this is also fitting with the subject of the article. According to the project scope, files that are in use on other Wikimedia projects are generally considered to have a clear educational purpose. So, I need your opinion on this one. Should this be deleted too, and I just use the other image already available in Wikimedia Commons? Areylle (talk) 13:43, 23 February 2026 (UTC)

• Again, the place to discuss is the deletion listing for relevant photo. Tip: That a file is in use is certainly a positive factor, but understand you might loose a point if the reason it's in an article is that you put it there yourself replacing a different image. Cheers, -- Infrogmation of New Orleans (talk) 18:18, 23 February 2026 (UTC)

  Ah I see, thanks for the advice and everything. Cheers. Areylle (talk) 18:32, 23 February 2026 (UTC)

Correct location for File:Český Krumlov Vltava 1993.jpg?

Hello, thank you for your photos from Český Krumlov I really love them, but while I was browsing through categories associated with Český Krumlov I've stumbled upon File:Český Krumlov Vltava 1993.jpg. It is unfortunately not from Český Krumlov and I cannot find the location of where it was taken. Do you remember where you roughly took the photo, so it can be recategorized? Thanks in advance, Comfyquiettree (talk) 21:41, 1 March 2026 (UTC)

Oh, thank you very much! Most of my photos were not labeled, and I seem to have made a mistake remembering this one decades later. Somewhere else from my 3 months in Central Europe in 1993. ... OK, I think I figured it out, Bern Switzerland, view from the Berner Munster to the Mattenschwelle, google view looks to confirm. I shall rename and recategorize the file.

Deletion requests/Files in Category:Declination (Cragg, Borås)

I noticed that you closed an deletion request about public artwork in Sweden. I'm unsure why they got deleted, as it is stated that we should not delete files just on the basis that there "isn't any FOP in Sweden". You can read it yourself at Commons:Copyright_rules_by_territory/Sweden#Freedom_of_panorama. I ask you for an reason for this, otherwise I'd request them to be undeleted. // Kakan spelar (talk) 14:45, 5 March 2026 (UTC)

Thank you for your message. I closed that listing as deleted, going by the discussion I saw in that listing Commons:Deletion requests/Files in Category:Declination (Cragg, Borås). I have no expertise in FOP regulations of Sweden. If you think my action was mistaken, you can make your case at Commons:Undeletion requests. I have no objection.

Deletion of the Roma Street memo

I wanted to discuss your rationale for keeping Commons:Deletion requests/File:Letter to the Sub Inspector of Police Roma Street.pdf. What happened was one user made a claim that the 1921 police report was made public, and I asked for evidence of that, and that evidence was never provided.

My understanding is that police reports in Australia generally had circulation only within government agencies at that time, so there was no default distribution mechanism to get them to the general public. They were private to the authorities, essentially, unless released by them. From 17 U.S.C. § 101:

“Publication” is the distribution of copies or phonorecords of a work to the public by sale or other transfer of ownership, or by rental, lease, or lending.

Do you have evidence that 1. this specific police report was distributed to the general public in 1921, 2. that police reports in this jurisdiction of Australia were by default released to the public, or 3. my understanding of pre-1978 publication criteria is incorrect?

If that evidence does not exist, I think we will need to start another discussion on this, as we still don't really have proof of a public-domain status until that's established. SnowyCinema (talk) 05:04, 12 March 2026 (UTC)

• I was agreeing with RAN's assessment in this case. Additional detail, if you have familiarity with 20th century technology to recognize the type of purple printing on the paper, you'll see that this was not a unique single document but rather a copy run off with "ditto paper", one of the methods of printing small runs of texts for distribution prior to xerox machines. I fail to see any plausible reason why this would not be copyright expired per Commons:Copyright rules by territory/Australia. However feel free to get feedback from anyone with good familiarity of early 20th century media copyrights if you think that might be informative.

Even if it is in the public domain in Australia, that doesn't mean anything for its US copyright. So, how do we know that the memo was distributed to the public, as required to be considered published in the US regardless of Australia's rules, and not just printed in large numbers for the purpose of internal distribution within institutions? SnowyCinema (talk) 04:56, 13 March 2026 (UTC)

If you think the issue was not resolved, yes, you can relist the file for further discussion. I suggest detailing your arguments as you've done here. I might comment on the listing with what I've brought up here, but I'll leave making a decision to some other admin. If you know someone on Commons well versed with early 20th century Australian copyright and how it interacts with US copyright, it might be helpful to ask for their input on discussion as well.

Deletion of a Soviet document

Hello Infrogmation! I hope you are doing well. Could you please take a look at my question here? Have a great day! Thank you. Regards, Oleg (talk) 17:48, 14 March 2026 (UTC)

• Good day. This was tagged as {{PD-ineligible}} which is used for things like simple shapes or short common text below the level of being able to be copyrighted. The document had a photograph, so that wouldn't apply. If there is some reason such as Soviet law that would put it in the public domain, I would have no objection to undeletion with proper license tag explaining the situation. Cheers, -- Infrogmation of New Orleans (talk) 21:53, 14 March 2026 (UTC)

  Hello! Thanks for the prompt reply. I have just see nit now. Of course, if the template on this file, which was uploaded over 10 years ago was incorrect, let us fix it. :) AFAIK Soviet IDs might be ok to be used as public domain. ("Soviet ID documents and similar official paperwork from the USSR are generally considered to be in the public domain or not subject to copyright, particularly those published before the USSR joined the Universal Copyright Convention in 1973. However, specific graphic elements or designs may still be protected in Russia depending on the creator's death date.") This person has died in 1979 and the photo was taken well before it as he is not old on that photo, so it might be also before 1973. Thank you. Regards, Oleg (talk) 23:15, 22 March 2026 (UTC)

Negatives

What is the purpose of keeping scans of the negative? All I find is it clutters the search results and makes finding actual images more difficult. Traumnovelle (talk) 01:57, 31 March 2026 (UTC)

• The functions of Commons include being an archival repository of original media, and being where free licensed images used in Wikipedias are stored. This sometimes results in Commons having more than one version of an image. I don't see how this "makes finding actual images more difficult." However if original negatives which are the sources of used photos seem somehow confusing, perhaps some categorization arrangement similar to Category:TIFF images with categorized JPGs but for negatives might be useful. In any case, if there is an issue I don't think my talk page is the best place to address it. Such are my thoughts off hand. Cheers, -- Infrogmation of New Orleans (talk) 02:35, 31 March 2026 (UTC)

  In this search query over 30 out of 100 images are duplicates that does not aid searching and instead means one has to scroll further to find an image they may be looking for. Traumnovelle (talk) 04:21, 31 March 2026 (UTC)

Category:Vacuum cleaners by decade

Hi, Infrogmation. Thanks for adding a metacat template to this category. For future reference, the metacat parameter usually needs to be in lower case to match the case elsewhere (in this case, Category:Categories by decade (flat list)).

Should the category be "kept" or "deleted" ?

I was doing some maintenance and here -Commons:Deletion requests/File:2026-03-28 No Kings Washington DC 12-08-08 1.jpg - the cropped was kept and the uncropped was deleted -(however, I do not see a rev. del. file)

Thanks, -- Ooligan (talk) 21:23, 14 April 2026 (UTC)

• I guess it should be categorized as "Kept" since the issue was resolved (through cropping). Though you may wish to ask whoever created those categories for their input. Cheers, -- Infrogmation of New Orleans (talk) 21:25, 14 April 2026 (UTC)

  Thanks for the reply. Was there a rev del or was there a separate file deleted and a newer modified upload kept? --Ooligan (talk) 21:46, 14 April 2026 (UTC)

  In such cases I usually just delete the older version with the DW problem. Cheers, -- Infrogmation of New Orleans (talk) 22:01, 16 April 2026 (UTC)
