I keep getting aggravating messages on my poop page about disputed fair use rationales which tell me to go to something called the "image description page" to defend my upload against the Wikipedia Bureacrat Brigade. Where is that?

- And then Some Wikipedias ban all images they don't like. And text. And links. And entire pages. For no other reasons than "it's copyright-infringement" (like any company even cares) or "this is nonsense" (because THEY think so) - and then the site is deleted, never to be retrieved again. Just like this post will be. Along with other posts stating the same issues. KnatLouie ( talk) 20:54, 6 January 2008 (UTC)
Good lord, yet more copyright paranoia!
Exactly what is the copyright status if I take a photograph of public art, such as a mural, statue, or even a graffiti piece? Can I make the derivative image available under a free licence, like GNU? I used the fair-use copyright tag to be on the safe side, but am now being plagued by "inadequate fair use" tags. Basically, as I understand it, while the the artist holds copyright to the original artwork, in the case of derivative works, such as a photo of that work, the photographer has copyright and can release it under free license. Please let me know if this is the case, so I can change the copyright tags to my photos of public art and put an end to this nonsense.
The most egregious example is this: Image:Nerihorse.jpg. This was actually an illegal graffiti piece (though generally attributed to graffiti artist Reminisce), and hence, I don't think is at all copyrighted.
Some clarification of these issues would be greatly appreciated. Peter G Werner ( talk) 03:09, 3 January 2008 (UTC)
This is a public domain art image of a lapsed trademark, uploaded in 2003 before these matters were as fussy as they are now. It was created as a part of a series of old labels I made, mostly as illustrations of old patent medicine advertising. Most of those are at the Commons now [1], and this could be in all likelihood. Sperm oil whaling was more or less moribund in the USA by 1910. The image is in use, in the History of whaling article.
At some point, long after it was uploaded, this was apparently given a "logo" template; and now has been tagged as an "unfree fair use" image for deletion. I did want to call it to someone's attention before simply removing all of these several tags and replacing them with a generic PD-US tag. - Smerdis of Tlön ( talk) 07:28, 3 January 2008 (UTC)
This bot has tagged "Image:Gods own country.jpg" for deletion.

I am not so sure that the deletion has been thoroughly looked at because it clearly states that the owner (RAN) allows the use of this image provided that it is not used for commercial use and not to be altered as the tag below states. Which Wikipedia permits. So what’s the problem ? please explain !

BetacommandBot automatically removes album covers without fair-use rationales, even though the fair-use rationale is basically the same for every album.

I've been in contact with Hull City Council
[3] regarding use of images from their database of historic photographs
[4]. It's a collection of images scanned from old postcards of the city. Initially, they refused permission to use the images. However, after some investigation, I pointed out that the images I want to use are out of copyright. They now accept that the images are out of copyright but have asked that this sentence be included in any article in which the images are used:
The images in this article are used with the kind permission of Kingston upon Hull City Council. However in supplying these images, Kingston upon Hull City Council does not necessarily approve or condone the contents of this article.
This request is based upon their concern that "Hull City Council might become implicitly associated with sentiments, opinions or errors of fact which could damage our public image."
My questions are 1. Can they insist that the sentence is included? 2. Should the sentence be included?
I'm no lawyer but my understanding is that, as the image is out of copyright, it can be used freely without attribution.
As regards the second question, I lean towards saying that it shouldn't be included. To my knowledge that type of disclaimer is not typically used in articles. And, if there is no accreditation, then there is no possibility of their public image being damaged. Perhaps a "kindly supplied by" accreditation associated with the image itself would be the best solution. Are there any Wikipedia policies that would provide direction in this area?
We are sending a group to Fatima and Lourdes. We were wondering if there was a chance for you could send us a few photos. We will be using these photos in a slide show, which will be presenting to the group. Otherwise, we were also wondering if we could use a few pictures off of your website, and but accreditation of the photos for you. 206.51.203.104 ( talk) —Preceding comment was added at 15:55, 11 January 2008 (UTC)
It's possible I just haven't been looking in the right places, but having checked a number of pages relating to image copyright, fair use, etc., I have yet to see any reference to Wikipedia ever actually facing a legal challenge over the use of an image (referring specifically to images uploaded in good faith as fair use, but for which legal action was taken for their removal or against Wikipedia for damages). Can anyone provide any links to either Wikipedia articles or third-party media to indicate this has ever happened? I'm aware that there may well have been "private" communication regarding such challenges (i.e. Jimbo Wales receiving a lawyer visit at his office or something) which would not necessarily be written out online, but surely given how important this has been deemed by the powers that be, there must be some coverage of Wikipedia either facing a threat or actually being taken to court.

I have been countlessly trying to help out the site by providing relevent images where they are needed in various articles. However, I have received copyright warnings on various occasions, and to my confusion, all seem to dissprove my fair-use claims.
How is it that other users can upload a copyrighted theatrical poster, but when I try, using the same exact templates and guidelines, and with the same intentions of providing helpful information, do I always get the boot?
I'm very confused. I followed the guidelines to the best of my knowledge, made sure I gave credit where credit was due, and still I get shunned by the website and accused of copyright infringement. Am I to believe the countless other film posters and screencaps gathered about the site don't infringe copyright either? I just don't get it, frankly.
All I'm trying to do is help by expanding short, incomplete article stubs, but my efforts are constantly shattered by these confusing image laws.

If a user draws a stylized picture of a rank insignia, would this user be able to use the GFDL tag on this image or would the original designer of the insignia own the rights to all derivited works of the design?
What about photographs of rank insignia? Does the photographer or the crafter of the insignia own the copyrights a photograph of the insignia? It seems that photographs of insignia might fall under the same status as photographs of three-dimensional statues.
See Starfleet ranks and insignia for examples of both photographs and drawings of insignia.
Also, what about drawings and photographs of flags? It seems tricky because all though flag designs are two-dimensional, actual flags are three-dimensional objects that are often found hanging or waving from poles. Would drawings/photographs of flat flags be treated differently than drawings/photographs of flags that show some indication of depth?
See Flag for some photographs of three-dimensional flags and some drawings of two-dimensional flags.

Recently BetacommandBot went on "tagging spree" against Half-Life 2 computer game related screenshots.

Suggest that Betacommandbot be amended to not require an article-specific fair use image when an image is used in one and only one article. As long as an image is used in one and only one article, the boilerplate fair use image should be presumed to apply to the article involved, and moving the article shouldn't affect this. An issue of a need for article-specific fair use image rationales should only arise, and Betacommandbot should only tag for them, when an image is actually used in more than one article. This would save a lot of red tape and annoyed editors with no loss of legal rigor. To be even more helpful, whenever an image belongs to a single article and the article name wasn't included in the fair use rationale, Betacommandbot could actually help out by automatically adding the article name to the image file to produce an automatic default article-specific rationale based on the boilerplate. Editors would have to do it themselvess only when the image is added to a second article and article-specific rationales become relevant. Best, -- Shirahadasha ( talk) 18:23, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

- And then Some Wikipedias ban all images they don't like. And text. And links. And entire pages.

Good lord, yet more copyright paranoia!
Exactly what is the copyright status if I take a photograph of public art, such as a mural, statue, or even a graffiti piece? Can I make the derivative image available under a free licence, like GNU? I used the fair-use copyright tag to be on the safe side, but am now being plagued by "inadequate fair use" tags. Basically, as I understand it, while the the artist holds copyright to the original artwork, in the case of derivative works, such as a photo of that work, the photographer has copyright and can release it under free license. Please let me know if this is the case, so I can change the copyright tags to my photos of public art and put an end to this nonsense.
The most egregious example is this: Image:Nerihorse.jpg. This was actually an illegal graffiti piece (though generally attributed to graffiti artist Reminisce), and hence, I don't think is at all copyrighted.
Some clarification of these issues would be greatly appreciated. Peter G Werner ( talk) 03:09, 3 January 2008 (UTC)
This is a public domain art image of a lapsed trademark, uploaded in 2003 before these matters were as fussy as they are now. It was created as a part of a series of old labels I made, mostly as illustrations of old patent medicine advertising. Most of those are at the Commons now [1], and this could be in all likelihood. Sperm oil whaling was more or less moribund in the USA by 1910. The image is in use, in the History of whaling article.
At some point, long after it was uploaded, this was apparently given a "logo" template; and now has been tagged as an "unfree fair use" image for deletion. I did want to call it to someone's attention before simply removing all of these several tags and replacing them with a generic PD-US tag. - Smerdis of Tlön ( talk) 07:28, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

I am not so sure that the deletion has been thoroughly looked at because it clearly states that the owner (RAN) allows the use of this image provided that it is not used for commercial use and not to be altered as the tag below states. Which Wikipedia permits. So what’s the problem ? please explain !

I've been in contact with Hull City Council
[3] regarding use of images from their database of historic photographs
[4]. It's a collection of images scanned from old postcards of the city. Initially, they refused permission to use the images. However, after some investigation, I pointed out that the images I want to use are out of copyright. They now accept that the images are out of copyright but have asked that this sentence be included in any article in which the images are used:
The images in this article are used with the kind permission of Kingston upon Hull City Council. However in supplying these images, Kingston upon Hull City Council does not necessarily approve or condone the contents of this article.
This request is based upon their concern that "Hull City Council might become implicitly associated with sentiments, opinions or errors of fact which could damage our public image."
My questions are 1. Can they insist that the sentence is included? 2. Should the sentence be included?
I'm no lawyer but my understanding is that, as the image is out of copyright, it can be used freely without attribution.
As regards the second question, I lean towards saying that it shouldn't be included. To my knowledge that type of disclaimer is not typically used in articles. And, if there is no accreditation, then there is no possibility of their public image being damaged. Perhaps a "kindly supplied by" accreditation associated with the image itself would be the best solution. Are there any Wikipedia policies that would provide direction in this area?
We are sending a group to Fatima and Lourdes. We were wondering if there was a chance for you could send us a few photos. We will be using these photos in a slide show, which will be presenting to the group.

It's possible I just haven't been looking in the right places, but having checked a number of pages relating to image copyright, fair use, etc., I have yet to see any reference to Wikipedia ever actually facing a legal challenge over the use of an image (referring specifically to images uploaded in good faith as fair use, but for which legal action was taken for their removal or against Wikipedia for damages). Can anyone provide any links to either Wikipedia articles or third-party media to indicate this has ever happened? I'm aware that there may well have been "private" communication regarding such challenges (i.e. Jimbo Wales receiving a lawyer visit at his office or something) which would not necessarily be written out online, but surely given how important this has been deemed by the powers that be, there must be some coverage of Wikipedia either facing a threat or actually being taken to court.

I have been countlessly trying to help out the site by providing relevent images where they are needed in various articles. However, I have received copyright warnings on various occasions, and to my confusion, all seem to dissprove my fair-use claims.
How is it that other users can upload a copyrighted theatrical poster, but when I try, using the same exact templates and guidelines, and with the same intentions of providing helpful information, do I always get the boot?
I'm very confused. I followed the guidelines to the best of my knowledge, made sure I gave credit where credit was due, and still I get shunned by the website and accused of copyright infringement. Am I to believe the countless other film posters and screencaps gathered about the site don't infringe copyright either? I just don't get it, frankly.
All I'm trying to do is help by expanding short, incomplete article stubs, but my efforts are constantly shattered by these confusing image laws.

If a user draws a stylized picture of a rank insignia, would this user be able to use the GFDL tag on this image or would the original designer of the insignia own the rights to all derivited works of the design?
What about photographs of rank insignia? Does the photographer or the crafter of the insignia own the copyrights a photograph of the insignia? It seems that photographs of insignia might fall under the same status as photographs of three-dimensional statues.
See Starfleet ranks and insignia for examples of both photographs and drawings of insignia.
Also, what about drawings and photographs of flags? It seems tricky because all though flag designs are two-dimensional, actual flags are three-dimensional objects that are often found hanging or waving from poles. Would drawings/photographs of flat flags be treated differently than drawings/photographs of flags that show some indication of depth?

Suggest that Betacommandbot be amended to not require an article-specific fair use image when an image is used in one and only one article. As long as an image is used in one and only one article, the boilerplate fair use image should be presumed to apply to the article involved, and moving the article shouldn't affect this. An issue of a need for article-specific fair use image rationales should only arise, and Betacommandbot should only tag for them, when an image is actually used in more than one article. This would save a lot of red tape and annoyed editors with no loss of legal rigor. To be even more helpful, whenever an image belongs to a single article and the article name wasn't included in the fair use rationale, Betacommandbot could actually help out by automatically adding the article name to the image file to produce an automatic default article-specific rationale based on the boilerplate. Editors would have to do it themselvess only when the image is added to a second article and article-specific rationales become relevant. Best, -- Shirahadasha ( talk) 18:23, 24 January 2008 (UTC)
