On this page, users can ask for a deleted page or file (hereafter, "file") to be restored. Users can comment on requests by leaving remarks such as keep deleted or undelete along with their reasoning.

This page is not part of Wikipedia. This page is about the content of Wikimedia Commons, a repository of free media files used by Wikipedia and other Wikimedia projects. Wikimedia Commons does not host encyclopedia articles. To request undeletion of an article or other content which was deleted from the English Wikipedia edition, see the deletion review page on that project.

Finding out why a file was deleted

First, check the deletion log and find out why the file was deleted. Also use the What links here feature to see if there are any discussions linking to the deleted file. If you uploaded the file, see if there are any messages on your user talk page explaining the deletion. Secondly, please read the deletion policy, the project scope policy, and the licensing policy again to find out why the file might not be allowed on Commons.

If the reason given is not clear or you dispute it, you can contact the deleting administrator to ask them to explain or give them new evidence against the reason for deletion. You can also contact any other active administrator (perhaps one that speaks your native language)—most should be happy to help, and if a mistake had been made, rectify the situation.

Appealing a deletion

Deletions which are correct based on the current deletion, project scope and licensing policies will not be undone. Proposals to change the policies may be done on their talk pages.

If you believe the file in question was neither a copyright violation nor outside the current project scope:

  • You may want to discuss with the administrator who deleted the file. You can ask the administrator for a detailed explanation or show evidence to support undeletion.
  • If you do not wish to contact anyone directly, or if an individual administrator has declined undeletion, or if you want an opportunity for more people to participate in the discussion, you can request undeletion on this page.
  • If the file was deleted for missing evidence of licensing permission from the copyright holder, please follow the procedure for submitting permission evidence. If you have already done that, there is no need to request undeletion here. If the submitted permission is in order, the file will be restored when the permission is processed. Please be patient, as this may take several weeks depending on the current workload and available volunteers.
  • If some information is missing in the deleted image description, you may be asked some questions. It is generally expected that such questions are responded in the following 24 hours.

Temporary undeletion

Files may be temporarily undeleted either to assist an undeletion discussion of that file or to allow transfer to a project that permits fair use. Use the template {{Request temporary undeletion}} in the relevant undeletion request, and provide an explanation.

  1. if the temporary undeletion is to assist discussion, explain why it would be useful for the discussion to undelete the file temporarily, or
  2. if the temporary undeletion is to allow transfer to a fair use project, state which project you intend to transfer the file to and link to the project's fair use statement.

To assist discussion

Files may be temporarily undeleted to assist discussion if it is difficult for users to decide on whether an undeletion request should be granted without having access to the file. Where a description of the file or quotation from the file description page is sufficient, an administrator may provide this instead of granting the temporary undeletion request. Requests may be rejected if it is felt that the usefulness to the discussion is outweighed by other factors (such as restoring, even temporarily, files where there are substantial concerns relating to Commons:Photographs of identifiable people). Files temporarily undeleted to assist discussion will be deleted again after thirty days, or when the undeletion request is closed (whichever is sooner).

To allow transfer of fair use content to another project

Unlike English Wikipedia and a few other Wikimedia projects, Commons does not accept non-free content with reference to fair use provisions. If a deleted file meets the fair use requirements of another Wikimedia project, users can request temporary undeletion in order to transfer the file there. These requests can usually be handled speedily (without discussion). Files temporarily undeleted for transfer purposes will be deleted again after two days. When requesting temporary undeletion, please state which project you intend to transfer the file to and link to the project's fair use statement.

Projects that accept fair use

Adding a request

First, ensure that you have attempted to find out why the file was deleted. Next, please read these instructions for how to write the request before proceeding to add it:

  • Do not request undeletion of a file that has not been deleted.
  • Do not post e-mail or telephone numbers to yourself or others.
  • In the Subject: field, enter an appropriate subject. If you are requesting undeletion of a single file, a heading like [[:File:DeletedFile.jpg]] is advisable. (Remember the initial colon in the link.)
  • Identify the file(s) for which you are requesting undeletion and provide image links (see above). If you don't know the exact name, give as much information as you can. Requests that fail to provide information about what is to be undeleted may be archived without further notice.
  • State the reason(s) for the requested undeletion.
  • Sign your request using four tilde characters (~~~~). If you have an account at Commons, log in first. If you were the one to upload the file in question, this can help administrators to identify it.

Add the request to the bottom of the page. Click here to open the page where you should add your request. Alternatively, you can click the "edit" link next to the current date below. Watch your request's section for updates.

File:The Route.jpg

The user had contacted VRT users before (see: {{RaftFilms Permission}})

Not sure but as far as I can remember these two images had been published on Commons for the first time so netcopyvio is not valid.

Hanooz 18:37, 26 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

 Support {{RaftFilms Permission}} appears to be valid and is present on the first file, so this deletion seems to be a mistake. As far as I can see, there is no reason to believe that there is a problem with the other two. Note that the copyright watermark in File:Taghi Rahmani.jpg must remain -- from the text of the CC-BY license:

SDSS images

Images from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) were once non-free many years ago, but are now under CC-BY (https://www.sdss.org/collaboration/#image-use). SDSS images that were deleted in the past should be restored.

Note that SDSS is different from the Digitized Sky Survey (DSS), which allows non-commercial use only; see Commons:Village pump#Digitized Sky Survey. There seems to have been confusion between DSS and SDSS in some old deletion requests, so some of these images might still be non-free.

Deletion requests found with "SDSS", there are surely more:

SevenSpheres (talk) 03:46, 28 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Although I  Support this line of reasoning, note that we must verify that each image is currently posted with the new license. Any images that do not exist on the current site have only the old license and must remain deleted. .     Jim . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 14:37, 28 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Actually this is the relevant part, not the part about the SDSS website: All SDSS data released in our public data releases are considered in the public domain. So SDSS image data is in the public domain actually, not CC-BY. That includes, for example, the SDSS data available through Aladin, which I think is the source of most of these images. SevenSpheres (talk) 18:46, 28 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]
They also told Unless otherwise stated, images should be credited to the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. We provide all images on a Creative Commons Attribution license (CC-BY) in there website Abdullah1099 (talk) 18:09, 25 February 2026 (UTC)[reply]
(Jameslwoodward), I did a google search on "have Sloan sdss images always been public domain".
Annoyngly, google now seems to use AI to summarize and try to interpret results, meaning I couldn't link to it. More annoyingly, the same search provides a slightly different answer, each time. But, one time, it provided an explanation for why some of its earliest images were not (immediately) considered "free". In its earliest years, as a courtesy to researchers, images were not made available under a free lisence, right away, so researchers wouldn't worry about being scooped, until after they published their paper. Once the grace period was over, and researchers were presumed to have had time to publish their papers, then all images were considered free. If I understood what it was saying, all images uploaded to their official website are considered free, even from the early years, when their mages were not initially free. Those initially unfree images weren't supposed to be uploaded to their website, until the grace period had passed.
If I understood it, any non-free images someone here acquired, through industrial espionage, or a leaker, would now be considered free, because the grace period expired over fifteen years ago. Geo Swan (talk) 12:40, 14 February 2026 (UTC)[reply]
This is incorrect. Before 2017, SDSS images were under a non-commercial license. In 2017 this was changed to a free license. Compare the old SDSS image use page with the current page, and see the old update to the Commons category and undeletion request from that time. There was certainly no "industrial espionage, or a leaker" involved here. SevenSpheres (talk) 00:40, 21 February 2026 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, SDSS images are in public domain Abdullah1099 (talk) 18:07, 25 February 2026 (UTC)[reply]

File:Orelha (Cão).png

See also: Commons:Undeletion requests/Archive/2026-02#File:Orelha (Cão).png.

@Yann: This AI image can be used to illustrate pt:Caso do cão Orelha. It was widely used in the media, and it was deleted before we knew it was AI generated: "Foto do Orelha, usada por imprensa e famosos, é falsa e gerada por IA" (The photo of Orelha, used by the press and celebrities, is fake and generated by AI)... And @Thuresson: in case you didn't see, the discussion you mentioned isn't even finished yet (update: It's finished and the article has been kept). Also, pt:Orelha (cão) and pt:Caso do cão Orelha are two different pages. heylenny (talk/edits) 20:56, 14 February 2026 (UTC)[reply]

@Heylenny: First, you declared that YOU are the original author of the image; that false declaration is serious violation of policy. Second, Own work declaration is accepted in Commons ONLY for unpublished works; for anything else that is used eg. in the net the uploader is REQUIRED to provide a free license EVIDENCE, not a free license DECLARATION. Third, as Yann is not Portuguese Wikipedia editor, his opinion whether Portuguese Wikipedia users prefers AI-generated image over a real image is irrelevant. It is up to you to provide evidence of such consensus. Ankry (talk) 18:22, 17 February 2026 (UTC)[reply]
@Ankry: Where, exactly, with evidence, do I say that "[I am] the original author of the image"? I did not say that and did not even upload it. Also, when the image is undeleted, the "author" and "permission" must be corrected using the {{PD-algorithm}} template, as I said before. heylenny (talk/edits) 18:26, 17 February 2026 (UTC)[reply]
Well, my mistake, it was declared "Own work" by the uploader not by you.
|source=Own work
|author=110280Andre
and here attemted to grant a license on-wiki:
== Licensing ==
{{self|cc-by-sa-4.0}}
Anyway, we have no valid license at the moment. Ankry (talk) 18:39, 17 February 2026 (UTC)[reply]
The valid license is {{PD-algorithm}}: "This file is in the public domain because it is the work of a computer algorithm or artificial intelligence and does not contain sufficient human authorship to support a copyright claim."! heylenny (talk/edits) 18:41, 17 February 2026 (UTC)[reply]

 Oppose I have to believe that if this AI creation looks enough like the real dog to be useful, creation must have required carefully worded lengthy explicit instructions. Commons and the case law have not yet fully defined when an AI image has required enough specific instructions to be over the ToO, but this surely is a case where {{PD-algorithm}} does not apply. .     Jim . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 16:34, 18 February 2026 (UTC)[reply]

We have precedents, Commons:Deletion requests/File:Trump Gaza.webm, showing that the idea that a "carefully worded, lengthy prompt" automatically exceeds the ToO is not established consensus. Those files were way more complex, commercially produced, and of known authorship, yet it was kept under {{PD-algorithm}}. By contrast, the Orelha dog image depicts an extremely common type of dog in Brazil and does not appear to require any particularly sophisticated or highly creative prompt. heylenny (talk/edits) 18:52, 18 February 2026 (UTC)[reply]

File:Miklavž na Dravskem polju.png

The image of the coat of arms has been published as part of an official text (see [1]) and thus meets the criterion at COM:NOP Slovenia exempting from copyright "municipal coats of arms" that have been published as part of official texts. --TadejM (t/p) 16:12, 21 February 2026 (UTC)[reply]

 Oppose The cited page has "© 2022 Lex Localis" and Section I, Articles 2 and 3, of the decree have a variety of restrictions that amount to an ND license. There is nothing like a free license there. .     Jim . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 18:04, 21 February 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Neither Lex localis nor the municipality can claim copyright on materials that are exempted from copyright per the Slovenian legislation (cited on COM:NOP Slovenia). --TadejM (t/p) 13:55, 22 February 2026 (UTC)[reply]
 Oppose The act mentions explicitly only text of legal acts, not images. Ankry (talk) 21:37, 22 February 2026 (UTC)[reply]
Your opinion directly contradicts COM:NOP Slovenia, which is based on scholarly sources. --TadejM (t/p) 21:46, 22 February 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Map was accidently misunderstood as EU5 map while it wasn't.

Person that deleted the map apologised. Full discussion here: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/User_talk:HurricaneZeta — Preceding unsigned comment added by Polserb (talk • contribs) 23:25, 1 March 2026 (UTC)[reply]

As I said there the youtube video and the reddit post if different need to be under a free license, and I explained how to do that. However given that the comments there unanimously point out its inaccuracies, I'm undecided - it's very hard to map everything accurately, as even if modifications were made there might be further issues (and I can't view that deleted file, but the reddit post turned up as an exact match). HurricaneZetaC 23:31, 1 March 2026 (UTC)[reply]
It's also important to point that reddit post is about year 1337, while map presented year 1350 with Serbian Empire at it's peak and several border differences so some of mistakes mentioned are off. I can eventually change map style and fix incorrect border and then upload it as new file. I am just unsure is that allowed Polserb (talk) 23:41, 2 March 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Reason: At Commons:Village pump/Archive/2019/06#Requesting a Large-scale Courtesy Deletion of Personal Images of Myself several admins had responded and nobody was concerned about this. Greg said I have a hobby where I meet (take photos and get signatures) various "celebrities" of film, TV, music, sports, etc. there.

He could have used a tripod, which wouldn't be too far-fetched if you're going places specifically to take photos with celebrities. Even if someone else triggered the shutter, it's likely a case of m:Wikilegal/Authorship and Copyright Ownership#The Example of the Third Party Photographer (in a nutshell: human tripods don't get copyright).

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

File:Flag of Afghanistan (variant used in protests).svg and File:Flag of Afghanistan (Another Variant used in protests).svg

  1. Did the files directly state any author that actually owns the design?
  2. The IP user in particular also tried to delete File:Flag of Afghanistan (1978–1980).svg, File:Flag of Afghanistan (1974–1978).svg, and File:Flag of Afghanistan (1987–1992).svg due to it being under 50 years for {{PD-Afghanistan}}. By that logic, won't File:Flag of Afghanistan (2004-2013).svg and File:Flag of Afghanistan (2013-2021).svg be deleted as well? Or are defunct countries not included.

If I am unable to get the file undeleted, I hope that at least I could get it emailed to to my email address as I swear I read somewhere that it was an option until it got deleted?

File:Sinn Sisamouth.jpg

So, a discovery I made on COM:Village Pump/Copyright#Are the CC licenses of these Youtube videos valid? (Sinn Sisamouth) is that the official verified account of Sinn Sisamouth on Youtube has released several videos under CC licenses, here is all from around the time of the file's deletion to the present:

You may notice 2 things, 1 is that the photo of Sisamouth is in these videos, and 2 being that not all recent videos were placed with CC licenses.

This leads me to the conclusion that these licenses were placed on purpose, and that it's plausible that the original uploader was telling the truth when they said they got permission from the Sinn Sisamouth Association, an NGO, to upload the original file. We were just unable to verify that being the case because it didn't go through VRT (and, in fact, trying to contact the SSA or now the CVMA has been fruitless).

If the preceding isn't enough to establish that the copyright holders intended to place this version of Sisamouth's portrait under a CC license, then the other rationale would be that the file is a free depiction of a non-free work and would still qualify for undeletion.

Here is the original DR for reference. TansoShoshen (talk) 20:39, 6 March 2026 (UTC)[reply]

 Oppose We don't guess at the intentions of people who hold files. All we know is that the Association has licensed a few files.

Also, the Association may have a license to use the image, but the Association is very unlikely to actually have the right to freely license the image as required here -- that right almost always remains with the photographer. .     Jim . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 13:46, 7 March 2026 (UTC)[reply]

@Jameslwoodward The Association, are in fact the copyright holders for at least several media in regards to the artists they archive, including Sinn Sisamouth. In fact, it took petitioning for the copyright of some songs to be awarded to Sisamouth's family. In regards to the photo, there was no copyright law at the time of creation, which is why we see this photo used on album covers and other marketing material. Post Khmer-Rouge, the photographer like many Cambodians are likely dead, and the copyright of the photo (once that became a thing), along with the songs, passed to the SSA (you can find copyright notices for an album cover among this abandoned blog they maintained), which would later merge into the CVMA. TansoShoshen (talk) 15:04, 7 March 2026 (UTC)[reply]
The copyright to the photo would not have passed to anyone except the photographer's statutory heir(s) unless the photographer left a will. If there was a will, then the heir to the copyright would have been named in it. I see no reason why we should assume that this unknown photographer left a will and named the Association. .     Jim . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 11:59, 8 March 2026 (UTC)[reply]
@Jameslwoodward That is factually incorrect. Article 19 of Cambodia's law on copyright and related rights includes:
In case of having no heir, this right will be subjected to the administration and governance of the state represented by the Ministry of Culture and Fine Arts.
Given the nature of when and how this particular file was made, it would be very strange for copyright law to work with statutory heirs and wills when the vast majority of copyright holders of fine arts were deliberately killed and their heirs either also killed or displaced.

Like mentioned above, it took petitioning for the heirs of Sisamouth to receive the right of copyright. In a similar vein, the Cambodian Music Vintage Association (CMVA) has clearly received the copyright of plenty of Sisamouth's media from the MCFA, including album covers as seen from the blog of their predecessor, the SSA. TansoShoshen (talk) 15:56, 8 March 2026 (UTC)[reply]
That may all be true, but it remains to be proven that (a) the Association has actually freely licensed this image and (b) that the Association actually has the right to do so. .     Jim . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 16:39, 8 March 2026 (UTC)[reply]
@Jameslwoodward In the aforementioned copyright page for the CMVA, the exact wording used in the headers of the release documents from the MCFA are "...សិទ្ធិគ្រប់គ្រងមរតកសាសន៍បទចម្រៀង..." and "...សិទ្ធិគ្រប់គ្រងមរតកសាសន៍របស់កាកាងចម្រៀង..." which roughly translates to "the right to manage the legacy/heritage of songs", which does imply that the copyright of album covers were also transferred over. Again, their predecessor, the SSA, have claimed copyright via copyright notice over visual material, and the original uploader to Commons claimed permission was granted by the SSA despite lack of contact with VRT.

In regards to (a), CC licenses applied to Youtube videos apply to the whole video, both audio and visual for the content that is either created or granted, i.e. not a reaction or compilation of someone else's work. By applying the license, the specific use case of the photo in question is applied. If you are to not believe the original uploader to Commons, then this would fall under Category:Free depictions of non-free works.

Now there's something that made my heart sank when I saw. Earlier today, @Tchaikovsky1 uploaded a file with the EXACT same name as the one that is of topic as this undeletion request. It was SD by @Yann a few hours later. But this leaves me with the concern of if the original, pre-Tchaikovsky1 upload be undeleted in the event that I am able to convince y'all of the copyright status? I was the original one behind the DR, I remember the file being higher resolution than most on the internet, at least at the time. TansoShoshen (talk) 23:43, 8 March 2026 (UTC)[reply]

The Tchaikovsky1 upload is a slightly better version of the same photograph, so it would probably be the one to be kept. However, again, we have a photograph by an unknown author. The copyright may or may not have passed to his heirs and may or may not have passed to the Cambodian government and thence possibly to the Association. The Association may or may not have freely licensed it. Unless someone can dig out the paper trail -- any copyright transfer requires a written document -- for the four transfers here, I don't see any way we can say that this is free beyond a significant doubt as required by PCP. .     Jim . . .

@Taivo, as the deleter, do u have a comment? Blockhaj (talk) 20:22, 13 March 2026 (UTC)[reply]
Seems that you are not the original photographer. So real source is needed for photos: where did you take them? Original photographer's name would be good, although this is not necessary. Creation year and first publication data are needed to confirm, that the license applies. And here your words are not enough, more evidence for creation year and publication year are needed. Why do you think, that the photos are not created in 1980s and still copyrighted? Taivo (talk) 11:31, 14 March 2026 (UTC)[reply]
@Taivo Since i am unable to see them, i can only guess based on name, but i do believe i have the sources for all of them. Some i also believe i have reuploaded over the years.

@Blockhaj: I undeleted all photos so that you can give correct source and correct license during a week. After that I will delete the photos without correct source and license.

File:AleksanderAndryszak.jpg

These deserve a second look, they were deleted in a concerted effort using multiple accounts targeting Polish history. The accounts were SPAs either nominating the images or trying to get the uploaders banned or blocked. They appear to have concentrated on people who opposed the Soviet occupation of Poland.

Taking a second look at the first file, File:AleksanderAndryszak.jpg. The source is found here: https://bs.sejm.gov.pl/F?func=direct&local_base=ARS10&doc_number=000007524 . The file was deleted based on supposed copyright violation. On what basis should we undelete the image? It has not been deleted based on political reasons.

  • Images published prior to May 23, 1994 in Poland were not copyrightable unless accompanied by a copyright notice.

Commons:Deletion requests/Files uploaded by Prospectprospekt

17th December 2024 discussion: the arguments for deletion (of Vintage Chinese movies) were mistaken.

Those files were deleted because of Article 11, Paragraph 4 of 1991 law, irrelevant to determine the lenghth of the protection of a cinematographic work:

At the time of the URAA date, Chinese copyright law said that "The citizen, legal person or entity without legal personality whose name is indicated on a work shall, in the absence of proof to the contrary, be deemed to be the author of the work."

This is not true: those are movies of the Republican era, most of those of the thirties. The ROC 1928 copyright law had no specification for movies, but the ROC 1944 copyright law did. Article 9: 10 years after date of registration.

Assuming all those movies were registered, that makes all of those movies PD by 1950, far before URAA arrived.--TaronjaSatsuma (talk) 10:20, 12 March 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Besides, Article 21 of the 1991 Copyright Law explicitly states:

电影、电视、录像和摄影作品的发表权、使用权和获得报酬权的保护期为五十年，截止于作品首次发表后第五十年的12月31日，但作品自创作完成后五十年内未发表的，本法不再保护。

Translation: "For cinematographic, television, video and photographic works, the term of protection for the right of publication, the right of exploitation and the right to remuneration shall be fifty years, expiring on December 31 of the fiftieth year after the first publication of the work. However, any such work that has not been published within fifty years after its creation shall no longer be protected by this Law."
I don't understand why the files were deleted.

Photographs and Sound Recordings were protected for 10 years after publication. That means copyright must had expired before URAA could restore anything.

Files uploaded by Lee Shiau-Shiuan

Same case as Commons:Deletion requests/File:Peng Dehuai (1948).png and others: Mistakenly deleted because of alledged URAA restoration: All of those were made before 1991/2002 (and most of it, before 1960) so it must had felt under the 著作權法 (民國33年) [Copyright Law of the Republic of China (1944)]:

Photographs and Sound Recordings were protected for 10 years after publication. That means copyright must had expired before URAA could restore anything.

Apparently the author moved to Taiwan, where the 1964 reform did not change any term; so same law applied until 1985 when either 30 years from publication or life+50 was introduced.

Anyway, the newest of the pictures has 1966 as date: under the 1928/1944 copyright laws, a picture has 10 years of copyright protection since it was published. That makes all pics PD by 1976, 9 years before the 1985 reform changed copyright rules (if following Taiwan laws) and 15 years before the PRC had a copyright law of its own (20 full years before the alledged URAA restoration date).

File:Dr. Dudley Allen.jpg File:Henry Picard.jpg File:Cat and Claret.jpg and File:Horace Chapman Rose.jpg have all been deleted from my uploads.

Ticket#: 2026020510007253

A user named Whyiseverthingalreadyused went and deleted four of my portrait images and many other images that I inserted into Wikipedia biographies, all in one day of vandalism. He also deleted some text I added. He somehow got the idea that I am not who I say I am, and am infringing on the copyright of the rightful artist.

I have so far uploaded 20 of my oil painting portraits onto Wikimedia Commons. All but three of them were also uploaded by me onto Wikipedia biography pages of the people featured in the paintings. So far the specific deletions that have been carried out by the user Whyiseverthingalreadyused are as follows:

File:Dr. Dudley Allen.jpg was deleted from my Uploads Page on Wikimedia Commons. It is one of the three that I had not yet uploaded to his biographical page because I also wanted to add some biographical information along with the picture and hadn't gotten around to it yet.

File:Henry Picard.jpg is another picture deleted from my Uploads Page, and also one that I had not yet uploaded to Picard's biography page.

File:Cat and Claret.jpg has also been deleted from my Uploads Page, and it has also been deleted from the biography page of William Marshall Wright, who is pictured in the painting along with his wife.

File:Robert B. Krupansky.jpg and File:Robert B. Krupansky Sketch.jpg were both deleted from the biography page of Robert B. Krupansky. Curiously, they were not deleted from my Uploads Page, though it is noted in my Uploads Log that the Krupansky Sketch is marked for deletion.

File:Horace Chapman Rose.jpg and File:Horace Chapman Rose - Sketch.jpg were both deleted from the biography page of H. Chapman Rose. The File:Horace Chapman Rose.jpg was also deleted from my Uploads Page, but not the Sketch.

File:Alexander Shabalov Smiling.jpg and File:Alexander Shabalov Contemplating.jpg were both deleted from the biography page of Alexander Shabalov. The pictures were not deleted from my Uploads Page. Also some significant biographical information about Shabalov's performance in Chess Olympiads that was added by me, was also deleted.

File:Marian K. Shaughnessy.jpg was deleted from the Wikipedia page on the Frances Payne Bolton School of Nursing. The file was not deleted from my Uploads Page.

File:Dr. Tommaso Falcone.jpg was deleted from the Wikipedia page on Robotic Surgery. The picture was not deleted from my Uploads Page. The user Whyiseverythingalreadyused also made two more edits on that page on the same day, unrelated to my painting.

File:Dr. Irwin Marcus & son Dr. Randall Marcus.jpg was deleted from the biography page of Irwin Marcus. The picture was not deleted from my Uploads Page.

Auf Vorschlag von Gestumblindi (s unten, aus User talk: Cunolf) wende ich mit der Bitte an sie, alle entfernten Bilder der o erw Artikel nun definitiv wieder herzustellen. Die einzelnen Bildlisten mit Begründungen sind in den Diskussionen in User talk: Cunolf, vor der Eingabe von Gestumblindie, ausführlich ersichtlich.

PD-Switzerland-photo-non-individual-50-years Hallo Didym und Cunolf; Cunolf hat sich in dieser Sache an Wikimedia CH gewandt, WMCH seinerseits hat mich als Commons-Admin kontaktiert und mich gefragt, ob ich mir die Sache mal anschauen kann. Soviel ich sehe, wären das, soweit anwendbar, eher Fälle für {{PD-Switzerland-photo-non-individual-50-years}}, da sich Cunolf auf diese Bestimmung beruft (Urheberrechtsgesetz Art. 29, Absatz 2a bis: Schutz für Fotografien "ohne individuellen Charakter" nur für 50 Jahre nach Herstellung). Das Problem ist, dass man über den "individuellen Charakter" im Einzelfall streiten kann, das ist nicht so einfach wie der Ablauf des Urheberrechts 70 Jahre nach dem Tode des Urhebers bei Werken mit individuellem Charakter. Bis zur Einführung dieses Schutzes 2020 waren Fotos ohne "individuellen Charakter" in der Schweiz ja gar nicht geschützt, und das Bundesgericht ist sehr weit darin gegangen, siehe en:Copyright_law_of_Switzerland#Lack_of_originality - selbst diesem Foto des mit Aktenbänden posierenden Wachmanns Meili wurde der individuelle Charakter abgesprochen, es war also nach damaliger Rechtslage in der Schweiz gar nicht geschützt (jetzt bis 2047, da es 1997 entstanden ist). Für einen formal korrekten Ablauf möchte ich Cunolf vorschlagen, über Commons:Undeletion requests alle Fotos aufzuführen, die aus seiner Sicht wiederhergestellt werden sollten, mit der jeweiligen Begründung und welche Lizenz anzuwenden sei (in diesem Fall wohl eben meistens {{PD-Switzerland-photo-non-individual-50-years}}). Gestumblindi (Diskussion) 15:22, 14 March 2026 (UTC)

Danke Gestumbindi für deinen Vorschlag, den ich befolgen werde. Die entsprechende Liste mit Begründung ist übrigens auf dieser Seite weiter oben bereits hinreichend ersichtlich. Sollte doch eigentlich klar sein. Gruss Cunolf Cunolf (Diskussion) 12:06, 15 March 2026 (UTC)

 Oppose No images are named. User:Cunolf has a number of deleted images:

File:KH Aquarell Hulftegger v Westen.jpg oil painting still under Swiss and URRA copyright.
File:Mähdrescher Marsey Harris Clipper.jpg photograph, also still under both copyrights.
File:KH Quellabfluss vor 1909 hoche Aufl.jpg. photo or painting, possibly PD
File:KH Dampfdreschsatz Basadingen.pdf line drawings. Probably under URAA copyright.
File:MW Fam. Bachmann 1947.jpg 1947 family photo. Probably under URAA copyright. Scope?

And several others. Cunolf claimed that he was the actual photographer of all of these, which is impossible for some, improbable for others. It is hard, therefore, to be sure that what he says is accurate. .     Jim . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 16:26, 15 March 2026 (UTC)[reply]

My suggestion to Cunolf which he quotes above was to request undeletion for the images he thinks should be restored as {{PD-Switzerland-photo-non-individual-50-years}} (or other applicable license) listing each image individually with a reasoning and the proposed license ("über Commons:Undeletion requests alle Fotos aufzuführen, die aus seiner Sicht wiederhergestellt werden sollten, mit der jeweiligen Begründung und welche Lizenz anzuwenden sei"). This he needs to do himself. I agree that this blanket undeletion request is insufficient, as at least some of the deleted photos will not be eligible for restoration even under the proposed "50 years after creation for photos without individual character" Swiss regulation, as per Jim's examples.
