Most memorable shot 2022 / Wikimania 2023

Dear member of the Commons Photographers User Group,

I wish you a Happy New Year! As it has been our tradition at the beginning of the new year for a while, we're sharing our most memorable shots of the past year with each other. I invite you to share a picture that is particular meaningful to you and to describe why that's the case. Also, as Wikimania 2023 will be here before we know it (August 16 to 19), please consider adding your thoughts on our planning page, where we gather ideas for how we can make Commons photography more visible than in the years before.

All the best to you, your family, and friends! --Frank Schulenburg (talk) 21:01, 2 January 2023 (UTC)

Image moving?

I really am not sure, how do I move the image? Do I have to download it and re upload it to wikipedia? Or was there an option, the move option just appears to rename images. Govvy (talk) 13:46, 4 January 2023 (UTC)

Yes, you have to download and then re-upload it. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 15:56, 4 January 2023 (UTC)

Request

Hi, Thanks for closing the section "Files uploaded by 冷床系" on UDR. Could you please also close COM:ANU#Dronebogus and COM:ANU#Yann. I don't think we need a honeypot there. Thanks, Yann (talk) 15:17, 10 January 2023 (UTC)

I feel like it will give off the appearance of impropriety if I make a closure after being requested to do so by one of the involved parties. Just don't engage anymore with the thread, and people will get bored of talking. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 17:21, 10 January 2023 (UTC)

File:Flux tendu 3.jpg

Hi, Not sure this image is really "no valid reason for deletion": Commons:Deletion requests/File:Flux tendu 3.jpg. The video shown in the center of this image (where it is not "de minimis") was made by artist Laurent Faulon, who is not the youtube user who made the other video from which this image is taken. There does not seem to be evidence that Faulon's work is free. Delphine Reist (the youtube user) is Faulon's partner, but that doesn't mean that Faulon's works are free. Similarly for the artworks by Faulon shown in the Reist video (e.g the yellow thing on the left of the image in Commons:Deletion requests/File:Flux tendu 6.jpg, etc.), although maybe less clear depending if those modified pre-existing objects are considered copyrightable artworks. -- Asclepias (talk) 15:15, 11 January 2023 (UTC)

It is true that no valid reason for deletion was presented. My closure does not prevent someone from renominating with a different reason. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 16:29, 11 January 2023 (UTC)

Commons:Deletion requests/File:09.09.2019 15.36.27 REC.png

You removed this page from the category Copyright deletion requests (without replacing it with a more specific category), even though this discussion clearly is about copyright as well as scope. Why?

Regarding scope, in my experience, personal images are allowed only if they are used. The policy allowing personal images for substantial contributors has been scrutinised at Commons:Deletion requests/File:Last night in Sweden.jpg; if 09.09.2019 15.36.27 REC.png is to be kept, then surely Last night in Sweden.jpg must be kept too, and the policy must be clarified. Brianjd (talk) 11:39, 12 January 2023 (UTC)

The overwhelming majority of DRs are copyright-related, so it is not a useful category (see Commons:Categories for discussion/2022/12/Category:Copyright deletion requests). I don't see how it is a contradiction for me to have closed this DR as kept, when simply nobody has gotten around to closing Commons:Deletion requests/File:Last night in Sweden.jpg (which will almost certainly be closed as kept as well). Maybe you can start a thread on Commons talk:Project scope to clarify whether personal images are required to actually be used. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 11:45, 12 January 2023 (UTC)

Building categories going haywire?

Hello! Could you please take a peek here? If I am wrong I need to know it asap. Best wishes, --SergeWoodzing (talk) 21:40, 12 January 2023 (UTC)

Hello, in Turkish Wikipedia some university students creating articles and uploading images for their assignments. Most of the articles deleted in trwiki because they violated copyrights. This image uploaded by one of the students, it may be copyrighted, since we do not have a chance to investigate more, we need to wait for VRT process. Best, Kadı Message 07:54, 14 January 2023 (UTC)

This user has not uploaded any images which have been proven to be copyvios or which seem highly unlikely to be own work, and there is no obvious reason why these photos cannot all be photographed by the same person. Therefore, in the absence of evidence we should assume good faith. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 03:57, 15 January 2023 (UTC)

Every student create different accounts, that's why I added VRT tag, but if you do not agree with me, that's okay. Best, Kadı Message 05:16, 15 January 2023 (UTC)

Commons:Deletion requests/Files uploaded by Fakkek21

Hello. It appears you restored these files without removing the DR from the file pages or adding anything to the DR. Was that any mistake? --Krd 07:39, 17 January 2023 (UTC)

I restored them per request by Ganímedes at COM:UNDEL regarding permissions received at Ticket:2021111110000025. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 08:41, 17 January 2023 (UTC)

I think it is required in such cases to remove the DR and put some {{subst:OR}} into the file pages, to trigger deletion if permission will not be achieved. --Krd 10:30, 17 January 2023 (UTC)

Done. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 03:13, 18 January 2023 (UTC)
