Hola, Yann. Gracias por notificarme, pero la imagen estaba por todos lados y pensé que no tenía copyright, Y no todas mis imagenes tienen copyright. Algunas de mis imágenes las tomé de sitios de noticias cubanos, como la del tornado de la Habana de 2019, que la tiró una persona y después la mando a redes sociales, posteriormente se hizo pública ya que la persona no puso ningún sistema de copyright a la imagen, y con mi internet no puedo buscar esa imagen. Y como tiene dominio público la subí pero me la borraron, y lo mismo con la de la tromba marina de Caimito. Y el resto las tire desde mi casa.

@Supercellofphoto: Hi, Nowadays, almost everything is under a copyright by default. You have to assume that images on social media and the Internet are under a copyright. So do not copyright unless you have a formal written permission for a free license from the copyright holder. If you have such a permission, please see COM:VRT for the procedure. Regards, Yann (talk) 09:05, 10 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
<Google Transate>Hola, hoy en día, casi todo está protegido por derechos de autor de forma predeterminada. Debes asumir que las imágenes en las redes sociales e Internet están protegidas por derechos de autor. Por lo tanto, no registres tus derechos de autor a menos que tengas un permiso escrito formal para una licencia gratuita del titular de los derechos de autor. Si tienes dicho permiso, consulta COM:VRT/es para conocer el procedimiento. Saludos, Yann (talk) 09:05, 10 January 2025 (UTC)</Google Translate>[reply]
Hi Yann, if one has "to assume that images on social media and the Internet are under a copyright" - why did you remove the Copyvio on two pages (PAGE 1 / PAGE 2), containing photos with watermarks from an Internet platform that expressly prohibits the use of its images (§ 12. Propiedad intelectual e industrial)?
The owner of the depicted envelopes is an antiques dealer from Seville, who is also the photographer of the objects and therefore the author of the images. This is decisive for the authorship, not the age of the depicted objects! I might be wrong, but in my opinion this is a copyright violation.

I think this user should have been indeffed. They’re clearly a troll/bluenoser and can’t be trusted not to immediately come back after the block expires. Dronebogus (talk) 10:28, 19 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Hi, IPs are not permanent, so they should not be blocked indefinitely. But otherwise, I agree with a longer block if they come back. Yann (talk) 11:13, 19 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Notification about possible deletion
Some contents have been listed at Commons:Deletion requests so that the community can discuss whether they should be kept or not. We would appreciate it if you could go to voice your opinion about this at their entry.
If you created these pages, please note that the fact that they have been proposed for deletion does not necessarily mean that we do not value your kind contribution. It simply means that one person believes that there is some specific problem with them, such as a copyright issue. Please see Commons:But it's my own work! for a guide on how to address these issues.
Please remember to respond to and – if appropriate – contradict the arguments supporting deletion. Arguments which focus on the nominator will not affect the result of the nomination. Thank you!
You cited Commons:COM:NETCOPYVIO, however I am not sure why. All of these images are works of the Rhode Island General Assembly, and I included in the description of all of these images that they were both works of the State of Rhode Island and cited Rhode Island General Law § 38-2-3, which states "all records maintained or kept on file by any public body, whether or not those records are required by any law or by any rule or regulation, shall be public records and every person or entity shall have the right to inspect and/or copy those records at such reasonable time as may be determined by the custodian thereof."
Given that the portraits of these legislators were works created by a public body in the State of Rhode Island, they are public records and are allowed to be copied. I have personally verified this with the Rhode Island Secretary of State's Office and the Rhode Island General Assembly's legal counsel, and I suggest you do the same if you do not think my above explanation is sufficient. I would request that these portraits be un-deleted if possible and restored to the Wikipedia pages they were on. SusImposter49 (talk) 04:44, 21 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
So that I know better, what information tells you when those old Lithuanian photos were published, thereby enabling you to deduce that their copyright has expired? Thanks. DS (talk) 18:17, 21 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@DS: We usually assume that photographs are published at the time of creation, unless evidence to the contrary. At the time, photographers handling their works to somebody outside of close family constituted publication. Yann (talk) 18:27, 21 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Oh, that's interesting. Photos from the era of "only [professionals / super-dedicated hobbyists who did their own developing] had cameras" are assumed to be published? Is there a discussion to this effect somewhere? Approximately when did this era end? DS (talk) 18:55, 21 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Yann, I noticed that the User:Adiiitya has been uploading numerous logos, flags, and insignias to Wikimedia Commons. Many of these appear to be either directly taken from the internet or direct recreations of those files. However, the files are being uploaded with the claim of "own work."
I am concerned about the accuracy of the copyright status and the information provided in the file descriptions. For instance, File:Blue Ensign of British Bihar and Orissa Province.jpg was uploaded with the claim of "Own work". This file seems to derive elements from the British India flag and the Bihar emblem. Additionally, there is uncertainty about whether the province ever officially had a flag of this nature. Could you please review the uploaded files for accuracy and compliance? MaxA-Matrix (talk) 15:45, 22 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Hello Yann, I hope you are well. On January 16th, you blocked Rogério da Silva Santana vai (referred to as "vai"). It seems he created this account right after his original account, Rogério da Silva Santana viu (referred to as "viu"), was blocked on pt.wiki for vandalism. The "vai" account uploaded a file that "viu" posted on his pt.wiki talk page, which led me to tag it for deletion here and block him from editing that page. The original "viu" account is still active here and has received a few deletion requests since then. I apologize if this message is convoluted, but I believe this is a clear case of block evasion. Thank you in advance. BraunOBruno (talk) 13:15, 23 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I noticed that you have seen the copyright investigations that I added. First off, I acknowledge that all of the pictures that I have added the Copyvio template to are not my work.
Second of all, I request that you delete these photos. I was previously unaware of the uploading rules on Wikimedia and the copyright status on certain images.
Also, I am not too sure what to do about the images from the NPS (Sonoitac, Santa Maria de Magdalena, Cuquiarachi). Most likely they are public domain, but I'd still like to bring that to your attention.
Finally, I will not be uploading many images on Wikimedia anymore. I believe there is a process to upload images that are not your work, so I will use this if needed.
However, one of the main reasons I have a Wiki account was to edit and improve pages relating to Spanish missions, so I have no problem with not being able to upload images on Wikimedia, if it comes to that.
Hi Yann,
What is your rationale for concluding that this logo is clearly above COM:TOO United States?
Why did you tag it with {{No permission since|month=January|day=24|year=2025}} and then deleted the file (uploaded half a year ago) yourself in the same minute? As you know, the text in the template says “… the file will be deleted seven days after this tag was added …”.
I noticed that this is a common practice of you. --Leyo23:47, 24 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Більшість моїх завантажень є повністю моїми роботами, які я створив особисто. Які потрібно навести докази, щоб вони не були вилучені? Alterbat (talk) 07:14, 25 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Hey @Yann
I see you nominated almost all of my uploads for deletion. I know I have uploaded most of them as own work. However, that was not intentional. I don't know much about copyright licences. If you could let me know about what changes do I have to make to the respective files, it would be a great help. Adiiitya (talk) 16:41, 25 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@Adiiitya: Hi, As I said on your talk page, correct all the files you have uploaded, and then mention that in the deletion requests. Do not add any more files with incorrect information, or copied from the Internet without a permission, or you will be blocked. Thanks, Yann (talk) 18:20, 25 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@Adiiitya: Why would this be in the public domain? It is the same for all 3 files. You have to give evidence. Who made them? From which information? Yann (talk) 20:17, 25 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@Adiiitya: Hi, For {{PD-India}} to apply, it should be more than 60 years. Currently it is claimed to be from 2024. Some works by the Indian government are OK with {{GODL-India}}, but, if I remember correctly, insignias are not accepted under this license. Please check COM:India. Thanks, Yann (talk) 12:20, 26 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Well, the issue is the same. There is no information or link showing the date of the original insignia. I let a message on the uploader's talk page. Yann (talk) 12:52, 26 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
You closed this, but left the DR for the crop open.
I agree with the nominator that the arguments for both images are similar. The request for the crop is well overdue to be closed anyway. So be consistent: close the request for the crop, or re-open this request. Brianjd (talk) 10:32, 27 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Hi, I uploaded an image of an actress from a movie trailer for "Death on the Nile". The trailer (and the movie) was cinematographed by Haris Zambarloukos, who is credited and had uploaded the trailer to his Vimeo account under a CC BY SA license. However, it was later deleted due to a copyright violation. How is this possible? It was tagged by the cinematographer himself as CC BY SA. Lililolol (talk) 03:54, 28 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
here you gave me the last worning without promply explaining why scrinshots from the site under CC BY 4.0 licensing cant be uploaded and present a copiright violation. Could you kindly provide some comments here as such a request on that page has been ignored. Thanx. Dmitry Plantorama (talk) 16:07, 28 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Request for Review and Deletion of Copyrighted Images on Commons
Dear Mr. Yann,
I hope this finds you well.
I am writing to kindly request your assistance in reviewing and deleting certain images that I previously uploaded to Wikimedia Commons. Upon further review, I have realized that these images may infringe upon copyright regulations, and I would like to ensure compliance with Wikimedia's policies.
I sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and truly appreciate your time and effort in addressing this matter. Please let me know if you require any further information from my side.
Hello, could I get your advice regarding this ongoing situation? Salto Loco replaced several maps depicting de facto boundaries with maps removing disputed borders despite the maps being in relation to enforced laws (hence the reason they depicted de facto boundaries). This is clearly politically motivated as evidenced by his previous comments ([14], [15], [16]). I reported several of the maps for speedy deletion to prevent further cross-wiki POV pushing on his part, and you deleted some of them - thank you for that, however a couple remained due to them still being used by the articles Salto Loco edited. I did not submit a report to the admin noticeboard because the user seemingly stopped globally replacing the maps and began discussing, however he once again reinstated File:Status of euthanasia in Europe.svg across several articles and just keeps reiterating the same few comments on every discussion board refusing to budge from his position with all other users telling him the same thing ([17], [18], [19], [20]). The only user supporting his position is LeontinaVarlamonva, who earlier attempted to do the same thing as Salto Loco - globally delete maps with disputed borders. The user has now shifted the discussion to ridiculous accusations of being paid by Russia? ([21]) I have reverted his replacement of the map, however as I am writing this message he is once again actively reinstating his upload across several wiki sites. His most recent comment here once again demonstrates that he is unable to separate his political views from his editing ([22]). What should the next steps in this situation be? Ratherous (talk) 15:05, 30 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Hi, I sent them a strong warning. The proper way to deal with this is to create a version where Crimea is part of Ukraine, and then use that version. It is up to each Wikipedia project to decide which version is to be used. One version should be named "(de facto)" and the other one "(de jure)". Thanks, Yann (talk) 15:22, 30 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for the warning. He is still however unilaterally replacing the map across different articles regardless of the ongoing discussions he started across many pages. While having two options for different wiki sites makes sense, at the moment what's happening is just Salto Loco pushing his version on every article rather than Wikipedia projects really deciding anything. --Ratherous (talk) 15:30, 30 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
It is clear that the first two conditions are met. But it is not clear whether the last two conditions are met. It is not clear whether any of the following are true:
Passing through an airport counts as an Bollywood party or event.
The airport is in India.
The photo was taken by a Bollywood Hungama photographer.
Actually, the conditions are broader than that. It works the opposite way: All images from parties-and-events should be OK, unless not taken in India. There is no reason to doubt that this is an airport in India. So in the absence of evidence, we consider these are OK. Yann (talk) 10:44, 31 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Yann - my apologies that the image I used for Dino Ying yesterday was also used as a hand-out via PRNEWSWIRE. The copyright rests with Dino Ying and his company (VSPO / Hero Esports) - and so is good to use.. I'll replace, but don't want to be marked down for trying to impinge on somebody else's copyright.

About a Gal Gadot image
Hi, about this File:Gal Gadot – Fast & Furious 6.jpg Honestly, I found it on YouTube under the Creative Commons tag, and it looked legit. When you search for this image on Google using 'lens' or on stock websites like Getty, you won’t find it. So, I don't know—it looks good, right?
Hi,
You sent me a message on my talk page about files that I uploaded that violate copyright. I'd like to ask you which files I uploaded that were violations as per your message I couldn't find any. I understood my previous warnings and I thought I've been careful about copyright but I guess not! Unilandofma (talk) 11:03, 1 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Yann, yeah, they should be undeleted too, but this discussion has not led to a rewording of the template yet, that therefore until now is written as if it was usable only for buildings built before 1976 (URAA-20y). That's not true, since all the buildings built before 1990 are not covered by US copyright, and even after that date most of the photos of these buildings would be covered by the US FOP, but I'd prefer to use it for buildings built after that date only when the template will explicitly say so. Friniate (talk) 21:40, 1 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Copyright Problems and Unblocking Account
I haven't uploaded any single one file after your warning reported. Check it out correctly. Because I was so busy in real life so that I couldn't even noticed this warning. Just think about it. How could I upload files if I haven't logged into wikicommons for uploading and noticed this warning? It's just so ridiculous and also can't be totally justifed at all. If I've uploaded files after noticing your warning then I can accept your blocking 100%. But, In fact, It's not. so I request you to UNBLOCK MY ACCOUNT IMMEDIATELY and get all my files back. then I'll give every single info regarding copyright you've requested cuz I want to add correct information of them, but they was deleted. Unfortunately, I deleted those files too long ago so I can't upload these files correctly and even I don't remember what these files were. Restore these files then I'll add everything you've requested as soon as possible.
For File:Covenant Presbyterian Church.jpg, I found this from korean community forum and the name who posted that image is 'agoragen' and I got permission from him.
For File:Asia Magazine 1941 9 (2).jpg, All info regarding this image was and is totally correct. I checked several times. you can trust me.
If you want the further and older source of first and second images then I can't give you exact info because thare are so many websites that uploaded those images and they also don't know where they got them before they posted and some of them even omited copyright or sources they got from. if you don't be satisfied with the info which I said above, then I'd like to give up these images.
Done Blocked, out of scope and duplicate files deleted. Yann (talk) 15:37, 23 January 2025 (UTC)
which are in public domain have been nominated for deletion but not the ones like File:Badge of the Indian Air Force.svg and File:CRPF Flag.svg ? Adiiitya (talk) 19:51, 25 January 2025 (UTC)
are enough so that I can do the same with the other files. Adiiitya (talk) 08:37, 26 January 2025 (UTC)
