Cette page a pour but de permettre aux utilisateurs de déposer une requête pour qu'une page ou un fichier (ci-après indifféremment désignés par le mot fichier) soit restauré. Les utilisateurs peuvent commenter les requêtes déposées en indiquant leur opinion ne pas restaurer ou restaurer, suivi de leurs arguments.

Cette page ne fait pas partie de Wikipédia. Cette page concerne le contenu de Wikimedia Commons, un recueil de fichiers multimédia librement utilisables par Wikipédia et d'autres projets Wikimédia. Wikimedia Commons ne contient pas d'articles encyclopédiques. Pour solliciter la restauration d'un article ou un autre contenu qui a été effacé de l'édition de Wikipédia en anglais, merci de voir la page deletion review sur ce site.

Trouver les raisons de l'effacement d'un fichier

Consultez d'abord le journal des effacements et notez le nom de la personne ayant supprimé le fichier. Utilisez également Special:Whatlinkshere (depuis la page de l'image, cela fonctionne même si le fichier a été supprimé) pour voir s'il y a eu débat quelque part avant que la suppression ait eu lieu. Deuxièmement, merci de lire la politique de suppression, les objectifs du projet, et la politique de licences pour découvrir pourquoi le fichier n'est peut-être admissible sur Wikimedia Commons.

Si la raison avancée n'est pas claire ou si vous êtes en désaccord avec elle, vous pouvez contacter l'administrateur ayant effectué la suppression pour lui demander des explications ou lui fournir des preuves allant à l'encontre de la raison de la suppression. Vous pouvez aussi contacter n'importe quel administrateur actif (peut-être une personne parlant votre langue maternelle) — la plupart seront ravis de vous apporter leur aide, et si une erreur a été commise, de rectifier la situation.

Mode d'emploi

Les suppressions qui sont correctement basées sur les politiques en vigueur concernant la suppression, les objectifs du projet ou les licences ne seront pas remises en question. Les propositions de modification des politiques doivent être faites sur les pages de discussion de ces politiques.

Si vous pensez que le fichier en question ne violait pas de droits d'auteur ni ne se trouvait en contradiction avec les objectifs du projet :

  • Vous pouvez avoir envie de discuter avec l'administrateur qui a supprimé le fichier. Vous pouvez lui demander une explication détaillée ou lui apporter des preuves pour étayer la restauration du fichier.
  • Si vous ne désirez contacter personne directement, ou si un administrateur en particulier a décliné votre demande de restauration, ou si vous voulez donnez l'occasion à plus de personnes de participer à la discussion, vous pouvez demander la restauration du fichier sur cette page.
  • Si le fichier a été supprimé par manque de preuves de l’existence d'une permission de placement sous une licence par le détenteur des droits, merci de suivre la procédure pour apporter des preuves de l'existence d'une permission. Si vous avez déjà fait cela, il n'est pas nécessaire de demander une restauration ici. Si la permission indiquée est en ordre, le fichier sera restauré lorsque la permission sera traitée. Veuillez vous montrer patient, car cela peut prendre plusieurs semaines en fonction de la charge de travail du moment et du nombre de bénévoles disponibles.
  • Si certaines informations sont manquantes dans la description de l'image supprimée, il se peut qu'on vous pose des questions. Une réponse à ces questions est généralement attendue dans les 24 heures suivantes.

Restauration temporaire

Les fichiers peuvent être restaurés temporairement soit pour faciliter une discussion à propos d'une restauration de ce fichier, soit pour permettre le transfert vers un projet qui autorise l'usage loyal (fair use). Utilisez le modèle {{Request temporary undeletion}} sur le demande de restauration concernée et fournissez une explication.

  1. si la restauration temporaire est réalisée dans le but de faciliter un débat, expliquez en quoi elle pourrait être utile pour ce débat, ou
  2. si la restauration temporaire est destinée à permettre un transfert vers un projet acceptant l'usage légitime (fair use), précisez vers quel projet vous désirez transférer le fichier et proposez un lien vers la page du projet mentionnant sa politique en matière d'usage légitime.

Pour aider dans une discussion

Des fichiers peuvent être temporairement restaurés afin de donner des éléments lors d'un débat s'il apparaît difficile aux participants de décider si une demande de restauration doit être validée ou non tant qu'ils n'ont pas accès au fichier en question. Si une description ou une citation du fichier est suffisante, un administrateur peut les fournir au lieu d'accéder à la demande de restauration temporaire. Les demandes peuvent être rejetées si l'utilité pour la discussion est réduite par d'autres facteurs (comme la restauration, même temporaire, de fichiers où il existe des enjeux importants en matière de Commons:Photos de personnes identifiables). Les fichiers restaurés temporairement pour faciliter une discussion seront de nouveau supprimés après 30 jours, ou lorsque la demande est clôturée (en prenant le délai le plus court).

Pour permettre le transfert de contenu en fair use vers un autre projet

À l'inverse de Wikipédia en anglais et de quelques autres projets Wikimedia, Commons n'accepte pas d'héberger du contenu non libre dans le cadre de l'usage loyal (fair use). Si un fichier supprimé correspond aux critères pour un usage loyal (fait use) sur un autre projet Wikimedia, les utilisateurs peuvent demander sa restauration temporaire afin de le transférer vers cet autre projet. De telles requêtes peuvent en général être traitées rapidement (sans débat). Les fichiers restaurés temporairement pour être transférés seront supprimés après deux jours. Lors de la demande de restauration temporaire, veuillez préciser sur quel projet vous comptez transférer le fichier et fournir un lien vers la page du projet définissant les modalités de l'usage loyal (fair use) sur ce projet.

Ajouter une demande

Assurez-vous en premier que vous avez essayé de trouver la raison pour laquelle le fichier a été supprimé. Ensuite, veuillez lire ces instructions sur la manière de rédiger la demande avant de l'ajouter :

  • Ne demandez pas la restauration d'un fichier qui n'a pas été supprimé.
  • Ne publiez pas votre adresse de courriel ou votre numéro de téléphone, ni ceux d'autres personnes.
  • dans le champ Subject:, saisissez un sujet approprié. Si vous demander la restauration d'un seul fichier, un titre comme [[:File:DeletedFile.jpg]] est conseillé (souvenez-vous du caractère deux-points initial dans le lien).
  • identifiez le ou les fichiers dont vous demandez la restauration et fournissez des liens vers les images (voir plus haut). Si vous ne connaissez pas le nom exact, fournissez autant d'informations que possible. Les demandes sans informations suffisantes sur ce qui doit être restauré peuvent être archivées sans préavis.
  • donnez le ou les motifs de la demande de restauration.
  • signez votre demande avec les quatre caractères tilde (~~~~). Si vous avez un compte sur Commons, connectez-vous d'abord. Si vous êtes la personne ayant téléversé le fichier en question, cela peut aider les administrateurs à l'identifier.

Ajoutez la demande à la fin de la page. Cliquez ici pour ouvrir la page à l'endroit où vous devriez ajouter votre demande. Sinon, vous pouvez cliquer sur le lien "modifier" situé à côté de la date, ci-dessous. Surveillez les mises à jour apportées à la section correspondant à votre demande.

Requêtes en cours

Hi, it seems the file File:TabukGold.jpg has been deleted, according to reasons stating "A source is given, but there is no proof that the author or copyright holder agreed to license the file under the given license." However, the source of which the image was taken and uploaded to commons from the following: https://www.deviantart.com/marcusburns1977/art/TabukGold-1050089119 is actually visibly licensed as 'Creative Commons 3.0" and is thus in fact, free to use under those terms. Who-ever opted for its speedy deletion request probably did so mistakenly, possibly not having seen that written license. Paraxade13 (talk) 09:19, 1 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Trade et Krd : Any reason not to believe that the license has been granted by the author / copyright holder? Ankry (talk) 12:28, 1 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Is this a real weapon or an AI creation? If it's an AI creation, it is out of scope. .     Jim . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 13:38, 1 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The image is a different angle/perspective, but it appears Saddam Hussein had a gold AK-47 that is similar in appearance. Whether this is an original photo of that or an artistic rendering of it is unclear to me. —Tcr25 (talk) 14:09, 1 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

 Oppose Deviantart is full of stolen photos. I don't believe the same Deviantart user owns the copyright both to this photo and and to the technical drawings of the F-4 Phantom. Thuresson (talk) 22:52, 1 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Though the site status regarding IP ownership between users may sometimes be questionable, it shouldn't be discounted that there indeed still exist many real users, even notable ones, who do indeed upload and keep, original artistic works there. Acknowledged user Thuresson's opinion against is made in good faith, but doesn't seem to provide much objective information as to the particular IP status of the work currently in discussion, outside of just a blanket generalization? Paraxade13 (talk) 08:24, 2 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Tried a reverse-image search via Google Lens for any duplicate or near-duplicate images that may exist online prior to the given image source's upload date, and there currently doesn't seem to be any. The image source & accompanying license may very well likely be original, be it a painting, photograph or otherwise? unless anyone users should present evidence for the contrary? HanyNAR (talk) 11:20, 2 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
With no further context it seems unlikely that a random DeviantArt user should have dozens of rare and obscure firearms totaling a worth of more than 100k laying around just to photograph Trade (talk) 13:45, 2 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
That's true. However judging by other contents within that DeviantArt account user's profile, seems many (if not all of them) are either original 3D rendered computer generated imagery, lined drawings and/or even paintings(?), might not necessarily even be photographs? Of course its not very likely some deviantart user (or anyone else in particular) would realistically have more than USD$100k+ worth of such rare items to photograph. Attempted to emulate some reverse-image search results as put forth by user @HanyNAR. This is some of the ('similar') results found from other published sources. Some of them are also indeed drawing's/paintings, but not necessarily objective indicators that those artist themselves has physical access/ownership of that item to draw/render/paint from?

I'm guessing that it is the file originally uploaded under the filename File:Byron Randall, Woody Guthrie 12.jpg in 2016 by User:Rootbeerlc, who also says to be Laura Chrisman. So, was this file covered by the wording of the 2012 OTRS ticket #2012091710000929 for the works of Byron Randall? That is also the question asked in 2019 in Commons:Help desk and that apparently remained unanswered there. -- Asclepias (talk) 19:27, 2 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Allimoneo78 : Hi, The permission has to be sent by email via COM:VRT. Yann (talk) 19:30, 2 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Originally uploaded in 2016 under another name, moved in 2019. Is it the same work as File:Byron Randall, 'Back', 1968 Woodcut.jpg uploaded in 2019 or a different work? -- Asclepias (talk) 20:08, 2 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, it is the same work. Ankry (talk) 09:59, 3 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Please restore the following pages:

Reason: As a copyrighted image, I requested that the copyright holder release the image under a free license. They accepted, so I directed them to the VRT generator to email the foundation. Multiple weeks passed and the VRT team never verified the image copyright. I emailed the copyr holder back and they never responded after almost another week, so I requested speedy deletion. Turns out, a day after the images were deleted, the copyr holder responded back saying that the generator didn't work. . . since the images were deleted. I need the images back now. TheWikiToby (talk) 17:07, 3 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

If permission has been received at VRT, the files will be restored. Apparently no email has been received yet. Perhaps someone could confirm? Bedivere (talk) 17:23, 3 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Perhaps I misspoke somehow? When I directed them to the generator, they never sent the email after multiple weeks. It was a few days ago when they tried the VRT generator when they couldn't send the email because the images were deleted, so I need the images back for the copyr holder to email the VRT team. TheWikiToby (talk) 17:49, 3 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Just tested: the generator works fine with a name of deleted file. No problem. Moreover, using the generator is just an option. There is also an email template below the link to the generator: it can be used as well. Ankry (talk) 22:28, 3 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This is an official DOD photo of MG Milloy, taken by JUSPAO. Does this fall under fair use? — Preceding unsigned comment was added by 75.139.18.129 (talk) 4 June 2024‎ (UTC00:13)

 Oppose Wikimedia Commons does nit accept Fair Use. We need an explicit free license. Ankry (talk) 08:24, 4 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
 Support Assuming it really is a DOD photo taken by the Joint United States Public Affairs Office, it should be public domain ({{PD-USGov-Military}}). "Fair use" wouldn't be a consideration. The deletion request looks like the issue was an improper license on the file, which should be a correctable problem assuming a clear source for it is available/provided. —Tcr25 (talk) 12:36, 4 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
{{Temporarily undeleted}} in order to fix the missing license/copyright template. Ankry (talk) 14:22, 5 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Ugh. There's a Facebook ID code on the picture. It looks like the proximate source was likely this post from RC-East Combined Joint Task Force-10, which is an official US Army account. This post on a page memorizing Milloy has a copy of the same photo, which he signed for Rob Street who appears to manage the page. Both of those were posted to Facebook around the time of Milloy's death in 2012; subsequent uploads to Find A Grave and various forums seem to have happened after the image first appeared on Facebook. Given his helmet has two stars on it, this would have most likely been taken in Vietnam around 1970 1968/69 (I can't find the exact date of his promotion to major general, but it seems to have been around 1970 late 1968 by which time he was in the field). It's possible a friend took the image, but an official Army photographer is more likely. —Tcr25 (talk) 19:53, 5 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

 Oppose This does not look like a formal portrait done by a government photographer -- I think it is at least 50/50 that it was privately made. That's well above the "significant doubt" that is our test. .     Jim . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 13:45, 6 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Just located a copy of the US Army magazine Danger Forward that has a pencil sketch by an Army staffer that is likely after this image (his perspective is turned slightly but otherwise the expression is quite similar). That Milloy appears to have had copies to share and sign and that it seems to have first appeared on Facebook on an official US Army account, and this pencil sketch seems to push it towards more likely US Army work than not in my mind. —Tcr25 (talk) 14:37, 7 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I think the pencil sketch is very different from the photo --the collar is different, his eyes are different, and the sketch is, as noted at a different angle. .     Jim . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 14:23, 8 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The collar is different, but look at the ear on the left side of the image. The sketcher turned the face partially, but that ear and side of the face are in the same plane as the photograph. —Tcr25 (talk) 02:09, 9 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The above files were deleted in error, due to a misunderstanding about British law and about the identity of the photographic subject. These deleted items were part of a now-resolved dispute about photographic copyright in the context of scarecrow festivals in the United Kingdom. The dispute has now been resolved and fully explained at great length here: Commons:Deletion requests/Files uploaded by Storye book. You will need to read through the latter discussion in order to fully understand the situation, but here is a very brief summary: Photographing scarecrow festivals in public-access places in the UK, and publishing such photos on Commons, is legal in the UK.

Re toys:

  • Objects which may look like toys in scarecrow festivals are not toys; their creators' intention is part of the scarecrow festival creation. Toys are defined normally as children's (or sometimes adults') playthings, but stuffed animals in scarecrow festivals are created as part of the scarecrow festival tableaux, e.g. farmers with sheep, Cruella de Ville with dogs, the Pied Piper with rats, and so on. The stuffed animals in scarecrow festivals are home made. They are not commercial objects, and that point matters in British courts. Also, British courts do not inflict punitive damages in copyright cases; it is the US punitive damages which give rise to the million-dollar damages awards that we hear about; that does not happen in UK courts.
  • This matters in copyright law in the UK, because only the designer's printed pattern, and the designer's own (usually unique and single) hand-made example are copyrighted. home-crafters who buy designer's patterns for home craft purposes and make a stuffy have not made an object copyrighted by the designer. I know that because I am a knitting pattern designer myself. The language and photographs in my written designs, and my own hand-made examples, are under my own copyright, as are my own photos of my own work. But my customers' creations are not under my copyright at all. No designer would want that, partly because no customer is going to make it in exactly the same way, but mostly because a lot of customers make an embarrassingly awful job of the sewing-up. As far as I am aware, no case has ever been brought to court by a home crafter who has knitted from a knitting pattern using e.g. a new colour, and then their neighbour has knitted from the same design and used the same new colour, etc. etc. Storye book (talk) 11:08, 9 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Related DRs: Commons:Deletion requests/File:Minskip 2 September 2023 (135).JPG and Commons:Deletion requests/File:Minskip 2 September 2023 (17).JPG. Yann (talk) 11:32, 9 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
 Oppose These are copyrighted in the UK and the USA. The facts that they are plush and were made for a festival are irrelevant to the basic fact that they are created works of art and do not have a utilitarian use and therefore are copyrighted in both countries. The fact that no case has been brought or that the UK courts do not award substantial damages are also irrelevant. The fact that they are not commercial objects is also irrelevant.
The 1988 Copyright Act is quite clear:
1 (1) Copyright is a property right which subsists in accordance with this Part in the following descriptions of work --
(a) original literary, dramatic, musical or artistic works,
(snip)
4 (1) In this Part "artistic work" means --
(a) a graphic work, photograph, sculpture or collage, irrespective of artistic quality
(b) ...
(c) a work of artistic craftsmanship.
One might argue whether these are sculptures or works of artistic craftsmanship, but it is clear they are one or the other, or both. Note that there is no requirement that they be commercial works or, indeed, that they have any artistic quality.
Therefore, we cannot keep images of them on Commons without the explicit permission of the creator. .     Jim . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 16:49, 9 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Jim, we have already been through this, and you lost the case (see above link to discussion). I have discussed this with the relevant solicitors, as I described on the abovementioned discussion. British courts do not define works of art and they do not define artists, because the definition of art is a moot point. You are wasting your time talking about art, artists and sculpture.
It is intention which is taken into consideration in British courts. The intention here is to create a temporary tableau for the scarecrow festival, and these items were part of a tableau of silly non-artistic objects made of clumsy bags of straw and intended for imminent destruction. The non-commercial aspect does matter, because in British courts on this subject, it is the potential gain or loss of money which is quantifiable, and it is that which is taken into consideration. Thus, if the items had been made for sale (which they have not), there would have been potential for quantifiable gain or loss (which there is not). Unlike in the US, British courts do not inflict punitive damages, as I have said above. Therefore there would be no basis for a court case regarding my photography of these scarecrow tableau objects.
When these photographs were deleted, that was the point of loss for the villagers who made the objects, because they no longer had access to photographs of their now-destroyed works. If the photographs were still available online, they could still be using those same photographs to advertise the next scarecrow festival, and they could still be using those photographs for their own records.
I strongly recommend that from now on you save your efforts for matters regarding US law, and leave British law to those who are in the know. It is obvious that the objects in the photograph are not graphic works or collages. We have already established in discussion that a scarecrow is not, and never can be, a sculpture. Please now step back and let others discuss this. Storye book (talk) 17:19, 9 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
 Oppose Wikimedia Commons is hosted in the United States, and files hosted here must be allowed to be used by anyone for any purpose. These objects are copyrighted, it does not matter one whit if the objects are non-commercial or not, there are works that has been fixed in a tangible medium of creative expression. Since the display is not permanent, they don't benefit from FOP. Abzeronow (talk) 19:21, 9 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Please don't be condescending -- it just makes the target angry and doesn't get you anywhere. I think you are wrong on British law as these are clearly artistic works, but the point is moot. It is perfectly clear that they have a copyright in the USA and therefore the images cannot be kept here. .     Jim . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 19:46, 9 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
They are not copyright in the USA as the objects are traditional effigies, which in this case are not sculptures. That means that they are utilitarian. Effigies can be scarecrows in a field, which are utilitarian as bird-scarers. They can be guys in British Fireworks Night, where they are children's money-raisers for the purchase of fireworks, or (at Lewes, for example) dressed up to mock famous people. Traditionally, they were used in dimity rides, as described in Hardy's Mayor of Casterbridge, where (again) they were dressed up to mock or embarrass people who had committed a social faux pas. They can be voodoo dolls, i.e. symbols of enemies, which some people used to stick pins in, in the hope that the enemy would feel pain. These examples are all utilitarian, in that they are used to symbolise something, for some further purpose, In the case of festival scarecrows, they bring the inhabitants of a village together for fun, and are used to attract visitors who may then pay money for charity, for a trail map, and usually also for tea and snacks. As for the art, that is in my ph9togrpahy. There is no Commons rule demanding the deletion of photographs such as this File:Rababou 2006.jpg, and I would like to know how my photos of festival scarecrows are a different case from that photograph (and all the other thousands of photographs like it, on Commons).

I created the uploaded file 'Andrew Barclay 0-4-0 Crane Tank Glenfield No.1 at the Statfold Barn Railway.jpg' from my own photograph taken in June 2023. I can find no identical image by a google search. There is a similar copyright picture on the steamlocomotive.info website which may have triggered the violation. However they are clearly different images (mine contains the WD tank on the left for example). I therefore request that my image is reinstated. --Robin84F (talk) 15:46, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]


 Support I agree that the images are similar but not identical. I also note that the other was taken by Robin R Beck whose name is similar to your username.

It's an interesting little beast -- there do not appear to be any outriggers, so I wonder how stable it is lifting to the side? .     Jim . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 21:44, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The undeletion discussion in the following section is now closed. Please do not make any edits to this archive.

Please restore the following pages:

Reason: File was in use (on Wikipedia-namespace in The Signpost) on English Wikipedia, and per COM:INUSE "It should be stressed that Commons does not overrule other projects about what is in scope. If an image is in use on another project (aside from use on talk pages or user pages), that is enough for it to be within scope." (my bolding of specific word). Wikipedia namespace is not mentioned to be disqualifying, so the rationale that this was "really out of scope" is entirely untrue, since it is in scope per COM:INUSE. The only rationale to delete the image would be COM:IDENT and I disagree that this would cause such offence.

I don't have great feelings though for keeping this image or not, however I wish to have this discussed more in-depth if this would really be disparaging enough for IDENT, or if Wikipedia namespace should be excluded from INUSE. I just saw the removal from The Signpost article, otherwise I would have participated in the original discussion.

This file was falsely deleted by Yann. I uploaded it into the public domain. --Abhiramakella (talk) 04:05, 11 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

 Oppose I don't see any reason why it would be in the public domain. We need a formal written permission from the copyright holder. Please see COM:VRT for the procedure. Yann (talk) 07:37, 11 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The picture File:Lentilky, 28g.jpg was deleted without any discussion citing COM:PACKAGE. But the pictured package depicts product which was introduced in 1907 (i.e. 120 years ago) so there is no copyright protection anymore! --Honzula (talk) 07:06, 11 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

 Oppose The original packaging may be in the public domain, but this is a recent one, and it has certainly a new separate copyright. 1907 packaging was not in color pictures like this one. Yann (talk) 08:03, 11 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
