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.

Commons deletion (policy)


Contents

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.

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.

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:

  • 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:Participation Party.jpg

In some countries witch include Japan and South Korea, escheat copyright works became public domain. --Sharouser (talk) 17:23, 17 August 2018 (UTC)

If there is an exclusion in the local copyright law that is not implemented into our copyright templates, it should be discussed in COM:VPC before posting here.

File:Wealden ostracod environments.jpg

I discovered that the file was deleted because somebody decided that it "These files look professional and I doubt whether the copyright holder has given permission to release it under a free license." It looks professional because it is professional - I am a professional - and I am the copyright holder. I chose to make it freely available via Wikimedia Commons because I was asked to provide it (and several other figures) for a web page in support of a podcast that I recorded. As I indicated clearly in the text I supplied with it: This is an original diagram; a modified, black-and-white version of it was published as Text-fig. 12.3 in: Horne, D.J. 2011. Ostracods. In Batten, D.J. (ed.), English Wealden Fossils, 125–137. The Palaeontological Association, London, Field Guides to fossils 14, ix + 769 pp. It differs from the published version (to which the Palaeontological Association holds the copyright) in several aspects of layout and detail as well as the use of colour.

If I can get this image reinstated on Wikimedia Commons I will then go through the same procedure with others that were provided in support of the podcast but have since been deleted.

File:Jetstar Airbus A320 VH-XJE.jpg

Please undelete this file because its my work. This is seriously my work (100 serious). This file only been posted on wikimedia, also 100% serious.

HutheMeow (talk) 07:15, 25 August 2018 (UTC)

Please delete this file because its really my work and as it said "own work" in the image infobox. If the file will be restored, I agree to abide the rules and refrain from bad actions and violations. HutheMeow (talk) 10:22, 1 September 2018 (UTC) [1]

@HutheMeow: What will you do if it's not restored? Pinging @Srittau, Jdx, Jcb, Guanaco.   — Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me 07:32, 1 September 2018 (UTC)
I see how this could be interpreted as a threat of disruption, but I'll assume that isn't the intended meaning. Regarding the images, I'll Symbol support vote.svg Support undeleting the ones taken with the same camera unless there is evidence that some were taken from the web. There has been doubt about HutheMeow's contributions, but I'm willing to give them a chance. Of course, if these explicit claims of "own work" here are proven to be false, we can't trust anything they upload ever. An indefinite block would then be warranted. Guanaco (talk) 08:12, 1 September 2018 (UTC)
@Guanaco: Can you look into the camera metadata and evidence of having been taken from the web without restoring?   — Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me 08:18, 1 September 2018 (UTC)
@Jeff G.: I can undelete them temporarily or I can download them to my computer and examine them. I'm doing some file transfers and a fresh Linux install now, so I'll make a proper list in the next day or so. I've seen a Canon camera and an Olympus. Guanaco (talk) 08:21, 1 September 2018 (UTC)
Pictogram voting comment.svg Comment - this user still cannot be trusted, see here. Yesterday they still claimed that all their uploads "belonged" to them, whatever that may mean. Jcb (talk) 09:42, 1 September 2018 (UTC)

No uploads that had "own work" were false, except for the ones that were unlicensed, but the rest of them were mine for real, so please trust me and that they belonged to me. Just please let me have another chance. HutheMeow (talk) 11:08, 1 September 2018 (UTC) Template:Undelete

Full list of files

Here's the full list of files. Looking at them now. Guanaco (talk) 02:22, 6 September 2018 (UTC)

No identifiable camera

Apple iPhone 7

Apple iPhone 6

Samsung WB250F/WB251F/WB252F

Canon EOS 30D

Canon EOS 1300D

Olympus VG165,D765

Most are low resolution, often indicating a copyright violation.

Canon EOS DIGITAL REBEL XT

Apple iPhone 5c

Sorting out

There are a lot of images here, and sorting these while they're deleted is tedious. Huthemeow did upload a few blatant copyvios, but they are clearly distinguishable from the others in this set. I did check several via Google Images and couldn't find any matches. Symbol support vote.svg Support undeleting them all with the noted exceptions. Most of the unsorted files seem to be from the Olympus camera, and if there is specific cause for concern about some images, they can be renominated for deletion. Guanaco (talk) 03:17, 6 September 2018 (UTC)

@Guanaco: if you (temporarily) undelete the lot I think I can sort them way quicker than you can. - Alexis Jazz ping plz 06:43, 6 September 2018 (UTC)
@Guanaco: I will undelete the Olympus files for now. They seem safe at least and can be excluded from the discussion already. Jcb (talk) 21:29, 6 September 2018 (UTC)
Thanks. This will be much easier to sort out now. Guanaco (talk) 21:54, 6 September 2018 (UTC)
All the files are grouped by camera now. Jcb (talk) 22:11, 6 September 2018 (UTC)

Images from Flickr author 62558987@N07

Some Flickr users are labeled bad users for a small number of their images uploaded. This means that not all images that they have uploaded to Flickr are problamatic. I had inquired with the editor that had labeled this author a bad user (@Ronhjones) about the rationale behind their labeling them a bad author before I uploaded these images.SecretName101 (talk) 18:43, 26 August 2018 (UTC)

@SecretName101: File:Renato Mariotto 2483.jpg is a redirect to deleted File:Renato Mariotti 2483.jpg.   — Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me 18:51, 26 August 2018 (UTC)
Fixed that earlier today after seeing your comment.SecretName101 (talk) 23:53, 26 August 2018 (UTC)
Pictogram voting comment.svg Comment Images of copyrighted documents were uploaded from this Flickr account. I cannot say that all the Flickr images are bad, just that they each need a careful examination, and not let the Flickr bot just pass them sight unseen. Ronhjones  (Talk) 19:15, 26 August 2018 (UTC)
I decided that I should ping @Srittau (who deleted these images) to inform them. It appears they misunderstood that the "bad user" label was not an explicit indication that these particular images were themselves problematic.
It seems to me that their rationale for deleting these images centered upon a misunderstanding about the nature/exact implications of the "bad user" label. It would be helpful for them to provide imput into whether or not that is the case.SecretName101 (talk) 23:53, 26 August 2018 (UTC)
I would push that these images should be undeleted (at least temporarily). Can easily be re-deleted if there is found reason to question the validity of 62558987@N07's claimed authorship of the images.
The photos in question were found on two flickr photo albums: this one and this one
It seems that these images were genuinely authored by Kurman Communications (the owner of the flickr account 62558987@N07). These appear to have been taken in order to promote Aaron Goldstein's campaign for the Democratic nomination in Illinois' 2018 Attorney General election. Goldstein's campaign committee did, in fact, employ the public-relations services of Kurman Communications, as can be evidenced by campaign expenditures such as this. His campaign reported three payments to Kurman Communications for PR and consulting services.SecretName101 (talk) 00:02, 27 August 2018 (UTC)

File:Jingle_Deutsche_Welle_bis_1984.ogg

Hallo ihr Lieben, ich möchte gerne, dass meine Tondatei "Jingle_Deutsche_Welle_bis_1984.ogg" wiederhergestellt wird. Es gibt bereits einen schriftlichen Vorgang dazu:

Wortlaut meiner Erklärung vom 31.07.2018:

-Anm.: Setze "Tondatei" für "Bild"-

Sehr geehrtes Support-Team, ich, Immo Fxxxxxxg, erkläre in Bezug auf das Bild »Jingle_Deutsche_Welle_bis_1984.ogg«, dass ich dessen Urheber/in bin. Ich erlaube hiermit jedermann die Weiternutzung des Bildes unter der freien Lizenz »Creative-Commons-Lizenz „Zero in Version 1.0“«. Ich genehmige somit in urheberrechtlicher Hinsicht Dritten das Recht, das Bild (auch kommerziell oder gewerblich) zu nutzen und zu verändern, sofern sie die Lizenzbedingungen wahren. Mir ist bekannt, dass ich diese Einwilligung üblicherweise nicht widerrufen kann. Mir ist bekannt, dass sich die freie Lizenzierung nur auf das Urheberrecht sowie verwandte Rechte bezieht und es mir daher unbenommen ist, aufgrund anderer Gesetze (Persönlichkeitsrecht, Markenrecht usw.) gegen Dritte vorzugehen, die das Bild im Rahmen der freien Lizenz rechtmäßig, auf Grund anderer Gesetze aber unrechtmäßig nutzen. Gleichwohl erwerbe ich keinen Anspruch darauf, dass das Bild dauerhaft in Wikipedia oder einem ihrer Schwesterprojekte eingestellt wird.

Die Tonfolge entstammt der Oper Fidelio von Ludwig van Beethoven: "Es sucht der Bruder seine Brüder"

Vorgangs-Nummer: 2026-8bc3bf40002a4327. Mit freundlichen Grüßen Immo Fxxxxxxxg

Daraus entstand ein Ticket#2018073110007746

Von: Permissions - German Wikipedia [2] Gesendet: Freitag, 10. August 2018 14:39 An: Immo Fxxxxxxg Betreff: Re: [Ticket#2018073110007746] Freigabe »Jingle_Deutsche_Welle_bis_1984.ogg«

Guten Tag Immo Fxxxxxxxg, vielen Dank für Ihre Freigabe. Es handelt sich hier offenbar um eine Audiodatei. Bitte geben Sie noch an, aufgrund welcher Umstände Sie Inhaber der Nutzungsrechte sind.

Mit freundlichen Grüßen

Alfred Neumann Wikimedia-Support-Team

Meine Antwort ebenfalls vom 10.8.18:

Hallo liebes Team, bei der Tondatei handelt es sich um den Zusammenschnitt einer eigenen Tonaufnahme von einer Kurzwellen-Rundfunk-Aussendung der Deutsche Welle aus dem Jahr 1983. Ich habe den Ausschnitt bearbeitet und in eine .ogg Datei formatiert. Ich gehe davon aus, dass der "Mitschnitt" legal ist und der Sender (die Sendeanstalt) keinen Anspruch auf Schutz erhebt. Die Tonfolge entstammt der Oper Fidelio von L. van Beethoven, Finale/ Nr 16, Don Fernando: "Es sucht der Bruder seine Brüder" (Anlage Original-Ausschnitt). Liebe Grüße und vielen Dank für die Mühen

Ergänzung:

Ich kann hinzufügen, dass die originale Tonfolge als "Historisches DW-Pausenzeichen, auf Celeste gespielt" angehört und heruntergeladen werden kann. Hier der Downloadlink: https://radiodownloaddw-a.akamaihd.net/Events/dwelle/dira/mp3/deu/DD8A4511_2_dwdownload.mp3 und die Seite mit dem Link: https://www.dw.com/de/beethovens-fidelio-eine-kurze-geschichte-der-dw-erkennungsmelodie/a-43640867

Also hoffe ich auf Freigabe und Wiederherstellung zur freien Verwendung in Wikipedia. Wäre eine tolle Geschichte! Schon mal Danke dafür.

Bis Dann!--OldfashionFreak (talk) 17:31, 27 August 2018 (UTC)

Symbol oppose vote.svg Oppose aus zwei Gründen. Erstens, der Rückstau der Email-Freigaben liegt derzeit leider bei 129 Tagen, also wird es noch eine Weile dauern, bis diese Datei an der Reihe ist. Der zweite Grund ist aber wichtiger: Die DW-Sendungen sind keineswegs frei von Urheberrechten und die Jingle-Tonfolge aus Fidelio ist m. M. nach lang genug, um geschützt zu sein. D h. die Mitschnitte hätten so nicht ohne Freigabe zusammengestellt werden dürfen. Dass das Pausenzeichen online verfügbar ist, heißt auch nicht automatisch, dass jedermann es nach Belieben herunterladen und weiterverbreiten darf. De728631 (talk) 13:45, 4 September 2018 (UTC)

Various ithkuil illustrations

Hi. I'm contesting the deletion of these files, on the ground that I had specified the licensing informations in the following way:

“According to the permissions attached by John Quijada to this files: « You may copy or excerpt any portion of the contents of this website for private, individual, or personal use which is non-commercial in nature and not for purposes of profit. Otherwise, you may copy or excerpt brief portions of the contents of this website in published, web-accessible, or commercially distributed articles, papers or webpages for purposes of review, commentary or analysis, provided you give full attribution to the author and this website. »”

This can be seen at the bottom of the ithkuil.net website I took these images from.

Copyright has never been my strength, but I believe I did not do anything wrong? If I did, do tell me what, and I will gladly reupload the files in accordance to the rules. Assuming I did in fact violate a copyright, I think my contestation of the first file of the list still applies, based on the fact that it is a simple geometrical figure.

Thank you and sorry for the bother. --Orikrin1998 128px-Nuvola man icon.pngNuvola apps email.png 22:29, 31 August 2018 (UTC)

It is the non-commercial restriction Orikrin1998. That is against one of the main rules of our licensing policy. It must be under a license that allows anyone to use or modify the image, at any time, and for any purpose. Including commercial reuse. As a side note, please change your signature per COM:Signatures#Images in signature. The images have to be removed. Thanks. --Majora (talk) 22:35, 31 August 2018 (UTC)
I see, thanks for explaining this to me. May I reiterate my request regarding the first file? --Orikrin1998 (talk) 13:23, 1 September 2018 (UTC)
Hmm...I never actually looked past the "non-commercial" before. But now that I do these might actually be ok. Magog the Ogre, these are apparently language glyphs. Would that not put them under {{PD-script}}? I'm not familiar with how copyright law deals with "constructed languages" (although all language is inherently constructed at some point). So if these are just "letters" of a language they may be ok, Orikrin1998. --Majora (talk) 19:07, 1 September 2018 (UTC)
Yeah they are, you can find them here. I actually never had a doubt it would be acceptable until the files were deleted haha. But don't worry, licensing has always been an undecipherable mystery to me.
For your information, constructed languages are better called artificial, on the ground that they are created by one person, or a small group of people, over a small period of time, as opposed to natural languages. And conlangs, as far as I know, are tagged with fair use policies.
Thanks for the update! --Orikrin1998 (talk) 20:32, 1 September 2018 (UTC)

Deletion File: Christian Mühlhäuser 2018.jpg and others

Dear Sir or Madam, In June, I uploaded three images to the Wikimedia Commons that were deleted due to lack of source and approval. The authors of these works had - unfortunately delayed - each given their approval for use in Wikimedia Commons. The URLs to the deleted pictures can be found here with the corresponding ticket numbers here: 1) File:Christian Mühlhäuser 2018.jpg Created by: Christian Stommel Ticket:201807021000318 Link to the former file: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Christian_M%C3%BChlh%C3%A4user_2018.jpg 2) File:Christian Mühlhäuser with Tarek Al-Wazir.png Author: Julia Isabel Mestwerdt Ticket:2018071210008718 Link to the former file: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Christian_M%C3%BChlh%C3%A4user_mit_Tarek_Al -Wazir.png 3) File:Christian Mühlhäuser with Volker Bouffier.png Copyright: Philipp Grevy Ticket:2018071010008758 Link to the former file: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Christian_M%C3%BChl%C3%A4user_mit_Volker_Bouffier.png I ask for deletion because all necessary information is now available.

Commons:Deletion requests/Oklahoma City National Memorial images

Ten years ago, most of the images at Category:Oklahoma City National Memorial were deleted as being derivative works of the (supposedly) copyrighted Oklahoma City Memorial. In the ten years since, that category has seen a number of uploads of photos of the "chair" memorial, example: File:Another shot of the empty chairs. - panoramio.jpg. So either the new images need to be deleted or the old ones need to be restored. My thought is that anything containing no more artistic elements than just the chairs is PD-ineligible and should be restored. Something like the nighttime display, e.g. File:OKC National Memorial chair reflection.jpg is a more arguable case. But IMO, any simple depictions of the chairs were wrongly decided ten years ago - the chairs are simple shapes and should themselves be considered PD-ineligible. --B (talk) 15:32, 4 September 2018 (UTC)

File:Cotton Belt Rail Line Map.svg

This file is different enough from the original that I question whether it should be deleted as a derivative work. It is a map, after all, and maps will look similar. I formally request undeletion so we can bring the issue to DR, where the community can weigh in. I have already requested this from the deleting admin, but I've heard nothing back (Special:PermanentLink/318655244#File:Cotton Belt Rail Line Map.svg).

While technically I could undelete this myself and bring to DR, I believe that is a violation of process and community norms. That is why I'm making this request via the common channel.

  • Symbol oppose vote.svg Oppose In my opinion your design is still very close to the original Dart map. E.g. you could have used a somewhat higher resolution for the city limits and different colours for the highways and city areas. Of course there will always be similarities when it comes to geographical maps but I think this is what would be called "close paraphrasing" in case of text works. Anyhow, I have temporarily undeleted the file so others may weigh in and compare the two designs. De728631 (talk) 16:12, 6 September 2018 (UTC)
  • Symbol support vote.svg Support, I think the concept of dimmed secondary geographical features did not originate with DART, and this map is sufficiently different.   — Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me 11:23, 7 September 2018 (UTC)

File:Sunhild Kleingaertner.jpg

To whom it may concern,

The picture Túrelio deleted because of copywright violation belongs to the user ("Leibniz-Institut für Maritime Geschichte"), who uploaded the file. You can find the picture easily on their website https://www.dsm.museum/ueber-uns/mitarbeitende/prof-dr-sunhild-kleingaertner/

So the user, who's my client, owns the website and the picture and should be able to upload it for free use on wikipedia properly. If relevant: The user just verified today, that he's practicing officially on wikipedia in order of the Leibniz-Institut für Maritime Geschichte.

Kind regards,

File:MapTiler - start screen.png

ticket:2018042010006308 contains valid permission, but I can't see the image and so cannot assess whether it was in scope. Some comments at the deletion request considered it out of scope, and it's unclear whether the DR closed as delete based on that rationale or the permission issue. Could an administrator take a look and undelete if this file appears to be plausibly in scope? Either way, please ping me upon a decision. ~ Rob13Talk 07:36, 7 September 2018 (UTC)

I'm gonna say that is not in scope, BU Rob13. The uploader appears to be an advert only account and minus a sandbox draft (en:User:Jiří Komárek (MapTiler team)/sandbox) I'm not really seeing any use for it. And the sandbox doesn't really mitigate the fact that the image was pretty blatant advertising for their company. --Majora (talk) 01:07, 8 September 2018 (UTC)
