Commons:Deletion requests/Files in Category:Files from the official Cartoon Network India YouTube channel
Hypothetically speaking what will you do if Cartoon Network India starts uploading Creative Commons videos again? Trade (talk) 23:34, 12 December 2025 (UTC)
- Keep in mind this have happened with other YouTube channels before where they claim the license is invalid yet after a period they start to release their videos under Creative Commons once against--Trade (talk) 23:42, 12 December 2025 (UTC)
- @Trade: I don't think this would happen again. It was a one-time mistake. But we will see. Meanwhile I added the channel in the bad channel list, just in case. Yann (talk) 16:17, 13 December 2025 (UTC)

Copyvio
Hi
The user have uploaded lots of copyvios about kaftans. Panam2014 (talk) 13:20, 14 December 2025 (UTC)
- @Panam2014: Hi, Where do you see copyright violations? Yann (talk) 13:35, 14 December 2025 (UTC)
- Three have been deleted and the user warned. Panam2014 (talk) 13:36, 14 December 2025 (UTC)
- But why?
- The file said This media may be subject to copyright. Rights assessment is your responsibility. And the dates are not the dates of the photography, rather the date of the kaftan.
- We have not colored files in 19th century. Panam2014 (talk) 13:42, 14 December 2025 (UTC)
- @Panam2014 and Túrelio: No, these files are OK. Please check the source. I undeleted and license reviewed them. Yann (talk) 13:43, 14 December 2025 (UTC)
- I have not seen a proof that the files are in public domain. Do you have a proof from the website? Panam2014 (talk) 13:44, 14 December 2025 (UTC)

- @Panam2014: Well, it is a minor detail here. The museum took the pictures, and released them under a free license. That's what is important. I corrected the license, which is {{Cc-by-4.0}} not {{Cc-0}}. Yann (talk) 13:55, 14 December 2025 (UTC)

Orphan work template
{{Orphan work}} Hey there! USA orphaned works would also include those that were created prior to 1964 that did not renew any copyright claims. Do you think the template should reflect this, or is it meant only for non-USA origin orphaned works? RAN (talk) 17:31, 15 December 2025 (UTC)
- @RAN: Thanks for your message, and sorry for not answering earlier. I am quite busy IRL now. Yes, I created this thinking mainly about European works, but it could be expanded to US works as well. Yann (talk) 17:39, 19 December 2025 (UTC)
Hi, I did put the source of the image, which said it was Public Domain? Or does it need to have a visible CC number thing and not just “Public Domain” KeyolTranslater (talk) 19:15, 17 December 2025 (UTC)
- @KeyolTranslater: You are not allowed to copy files from the Internet, unless you have a formal written permission from the copyright holder. Yann (talk) 15:39, 18 December 2025 (UTC)
- It said it was public domain. KeyolTranslater (talk) 15:49, 18 December 2025 (UTC)
- But it doesn’t matter anyways. I don’t mind the image being deleted, but it was public domain I believe. KeyolTranslater (talk) 15:50, 18 December 2025 (UTC)
- @KeyolTranslater: Hi, This is not the original source, and it is not authoritative. So yes, it may be in the public domain, but where is the proof? Who is the artist? When was it created? Yann (talk) 15:53, 18 December 2025 (UTC)
- According to where I got it, it’s a fixed version of an artwork from the 1700s (When Cheoljong lived), so one half was made in the 1700s, and the other half filled in in the 1980s. KeyolTranslater (talk) 15:58, 18 December 2025 (UTC)
- @KeyolTranslater: Apparently, this was copied from [1]. There are much better sources from this work, e.g. [2]. And here are some information. And we already have a (damaged) copy here: File:Portrait of King Cheoljong.jpeg. So best would be to copy this image providing the information from File:Portrait of King Cheoljong.jpeg. As you can see, this is not from the 1700s, but from 1861. Yann (talk) 16:13, 18 December 2025 (UTC)
- Yes I’ve already changed the image on Wikipedia to the damaged one. KeyolTranslater (talk) 16:43, 18 December 2025 (UTC)

File:Flag of the Bangladesh Tarikat Federation.png
Hi Yann. Could you take a look at File:Flag of the Bangladesh Tarikat Federation.png because it's similiar to File:Nationalist Democratic Movement (Bangladesh).jpg which you tagged for speedy deletion. The two flags are claimed as "own work" based on images found on Facebook. The files seems more like COM:2D copying or even COM:NETCOPYVIO to me because they look more like slavish reproductions of the original work (at least to me) than anything else, but I don't have a Facebook account and am unable to check on that. -- Marchjuly (talk) 20:31, 17 December 2025 (UTC)
- @Marchjuly: Hi, I tagged both with "no permission". Even if they are own creations, they are derivative works of non-free content. Yann (talk) 15:36, 18 December 2025 (UTC)
- Thank you for taking a look at these. -- Marchjuly (talk) 23:47, 19 December 2025 (UTC)

Request for Unbanning
Hey Yann, I fixed all the photographs from May 3, 2025 to June 22, 2025 and added all the proper tags and I was wondering if you could lift my ban. Bdblakley29 (talk) 03:13, 18 December 2025 (UTC)
- @Bdblakley29: Hi, You are still adding a wrong license here. Yann (talk) 15:45, 18 December 2025 (UTC)
- @Yann Just corrected the license. Bdblakley29 (talk) 23:11, 19 December 2025 (UTC)
- @Bdblakley29: Sorry, but no. There is no evidence 1. that the Clinton Foundation is the copyright owner; 2. that the Clinton Foundation released the file in the public domain; 3. Do not remove deletion request templates from files. If the Clinton Foundation is the copyright holder and released it in the public domain, we would need a confirmation from them by email (please see COM:VRT for the procedure, and COM:THIRD for the whole process). It could be in the public domain for lack of copyright notice or renewal, but this has to be proved. Where and when was it first published?

On the deletion of File:ASEAN's Big Five.jpg
Hi, I'd ask on the deletion of the photo. The exif notes that it was used for an editorial. But the photo was given by the Government of Thailand according to the exif. Shouldn't that be a factor also? Kaliper1 (talk) 20:33, 18 December 2025 (UTC)
- As it should note ownership to the gov of thailand and sent to AFP with the permission of the government of thailand? Kaliper1 (talk) 20:46, 18 December 2025 (UTC)
- @Kaliper1: Hi, I don't think this is OK, but you can request undeletion on COM:UDR. Yann (talk) 17:37, 19 December 2025 (UTC)
Deletion of Category:Brick buildings in Lazio
Today you deleted the category:Brick buildings in Lazio, that I had created some years ago and informed me so late that I had no chance to prevent it. The requiring user obviously had emptied it, destrictively.
Why is this ceategory necessary: Lazio has some important buildings of visible brick from various periods and therefore in various styles, som are of pagan Antiquity, some are of Cristian late Antiquity, such as Santo Stefano Rotondo, some are in Romanesque style, such as San Lorenzo in Piscibus and several residential towers, and some even are in Gothic style. The usage of visible brick is an important feature of European architecture, remember Pomposa Abbey, or Gotico Lombardo, or north-alpine Brick Gothic.
I did not succeed to get the note in the public deletion log.
But the user who had required the quick deletion must have emptied the category, before. Therefore his edit history must show the categories of single buildings that had been categorized in this category.--Ulamm (talk) 22:18, 18 December 2025 (UTC)
- I explained on the Ulamm's talk page that I just renamed the category due to the typo and requested the deletion of the old category with a typo. Files have been moved to the new category with a correct title. Deltaspace42 (talk) 16:53, 19 December 2025 (UTC)
- @Ulamm: OK for you? Yann (talk) 17:36, 19 December 2025 (UTC)
- • Where is there any spelling error in "Category:Brick buildings in Lazio"?
- If a category is renamed, there has to be a redirect. Otherwise it cannot be found.--Ulamm (talk) 20:52, 19 December 2025 (UTC)
- @Ulamm: if a category is renamed because of the trivial spelling error, redirect is not needed and the original category should be deleted. Deltaspace42 (talk) 21:13, 19 December 2025 (UTC)

New copyvio
Hi
This user have uploaded lots of copyvio here. Panam2014 (talk) 16:55, 19 December 2025 (UTC)
- Hi, I deleted quite a number of files, warned this user, and Commons:Deletion requests/Files uploaded by LeRagondinSuave. Some more files are probably OK, but need a careful review. Yann (talk) 17:35, 19 December 2025 (UTC)
Not sure how to add copyvio for subtitles
As indicated here: TimedText:A_Star_Is_Born_(1937).webm.pt.srt — it doesn't seem to be able to be templated, but this set of Portuguese subtitles (which don't quite sync anyway...) is a new translation created by a user on another site (according to the other site - it could come from an actual home media release, too, but, either way, presumably not be the IP editor who added the subs).
I noticed this because I just added a brand-new AV1 encode of the film... one of my best encodes yet, if I don't say so myself! D. Benjamin Miller (talk) 17:57, 19 December 2025 (UTC)
- @D. Benjamin Miller: Hi, Yes, srt files are special. They need to be tagged manually. I deleted this one. Sorry for not answering earlier. Best, Yann (talk) 18:16, 20 December 2025 (UTC)

Hi Yann. Thanks for your work with closing undeletion requests.

About the delete of File:Vistas Construccion nuevo municipio y piscina en villa alemana.jpg and the delete request of File:Pasajeros arribando a Villa Alemana (1960).jpg
Hi, I have seen that the image "Vistas Construccion nuevo municipio y piscina en villa alemana.jpg" was deleted for copyright violation. Despite the copyright license of the Flickr post, as far as I know, the images published by the goverment of my country (Chile) are under CC BY, and many times the Goverment´s agencies (like the Intendencia de Valparaíso) miss to eliminate the copyright in the images, for that reason I put in the archive the disclaimer "Despite the copyright claim on Flickr, this work of the Gov of Chile is licensed under CC BY" and the "CC-GobCL" license. This practice is common on Spanish Wikipedia and can be seen in other archives like in this image. About the File:Pasajeros arribando a Villa Alemana (1960).jpg, I took it from the link of the source and in the web it contains the next text in spanish: "Este sitio pretende dar una mirada retrospectiva a Chile y sus comunas existentes a comienzos del 1900. La idea que motiva esta iniciativa es poder testimoniar los cambios tanto culturales, sociales o arquitectónicos, a través de la lectura e interpretación de diversos registros fotográficos que dan cuenta del desarrollo histórico de nuestro país. También se propone estimular el debate y las opiniones que se puedan generar entre los interesados en conocer y compartir este trabajo. Se deja en claro que esta recopilación no pretende dar cátedra en historia, sino solo ser un transmisor de estas imágenes que cada uno puede observar e interpretar.
La mayor parte de las fotografías expuestas en este blog han sido recopiladas de sitios como www.memoriachilena.gob.cl, www.bibliotecanacionaldigital.gob.cl, www.monumentos.gob.cl, entre otros. Las imágenes publicadas son parte del patrimonio cultural común y pueden ser utilizadas libremente."
It says that the images on the web are part of the public domain of Chile, I can search the image in the three sites if is necessary but it will be very hard to find. Im sorry for the gramatical or orthographic errors, this is not my main language. Cristophorus (talk) 02:19, 28 December 2025 (UTC)

Murals of Seychelles
Since murals are considered two-dimensional works and are not covered by COM:Canada#FOP in places like Canada, what is the rule for murals in Seychelles? Can publicly visible murals, including those in government buildings, be uploaded to Wikimedia Commons without the artist’s permission (for example, Andy Alvis)? If permission is required and I obtain it, how should that permission be submitted or notified to Wikimedia Commons? CharlieMehta (talk) 05:56, 28 December 2025 (UTC)
- @CharlieMehta: Hi, For very specific questions like this, you should ask on COM:VPC. Thanks, Yann (talk) 07:50, 28 December 2025 (UTC)
- Thank you. CharlieMehta (talk) 08:01, 28 December 2025 (UTC)

Hi Yann, You blocked IVNWKI in August for three months and now he/she is back uploading many unfree images and adding them to Wikipedia articles. Suggest a global block at this point. Loopy30 (talk) 15:51, 28 December 2025 (UTC)

- @Loopy30:
Done Blocked indef. First, I thought that there were only some iNaturalist images with a -NC license, but copyright violations were copied from many sources, and there is not even one with a free license. I deleted most files, and tagged the rest. Thanks for the reporting, Yann (talk) 20:09, 28 December 2025 (UTC)
- Thanks, I am cleaning up after him now on English Wikipedia, restoring previous images that he replaced. Someone may also wish to do this on Spanish Wikipedia as well. 'Cheers, Loopy30 (talk) 20:13, 28 December 2025 (UTC)
