Not accurate Renaatp (talk) 06:45, 2 April 2025 (UTC)

You mean the subject is misidentified? Who is he? -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 06:53, 2 April 2025 (UTC)
The image has been uploaded through the website wikiportret.nl, by somebody of the name Renaat Peeters. He stated in ticket:2023022310009321 it was a selfie and agreed with the CCBYSA licence. If the image - which dates from 2023 - is not accurate (any more) a more recent photo can be uploaded and can be replaced on the article on NL Wikipedia. No reason to delete this version imho. Ellywa (talk) 11:02, 2 April 2025 (UTC)
Indeed not, if it is correctly identified and there are no copyright problems. I don't understand the huge number of deletion requests based on a photo or logo being "old". And 2023 is old now? Ikan Kekek (talk) 14:39, 2 April 2025 (UTC)
It's misidentified. The Renaat Peeters article on the NL Wikipedia refers to a Belgian christiandemocrat MP who died in 1999. He looks different and is not the guy in the photograph. Sadly, the photographs I did find of the correct Renaat Peeters are not in the public domain as far as I know. TomZeppelin (talk) 10:20, 20 April 2025 (UTC)
That's a pity. Right now, though, this file is COM:INUSE, so I don't see how it could be deleted based on mistaken identity. The best course of action would be to remove the thumbnail from w:nl:Renaat Peeters and add some explanation in the file description. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 18:16, 23 April 2025 (UTC)

Not educationally useful: Following files are cropped extremely small in attempt to focus on a particular bus (or part of it) or are cropped to too low of a resolution, rendering them blurry or otherwise indistinct. This may make them unusable or otherwise unnecessary in most contexts surrounding Wikipedia and other related sites, especially when other higher-quality images can be sourced from the Commons; the only use they appear to be for is an out-of-date set of bus enthusiast galleries on Commons attempting to depict each vehicles and livery type.

File:MetroMoves Plan 2002.svg

This is an SVG version of en:File:Metro Moves Plan 2002.jpg, a copyrighted file. Does this file fall below the COM:TOO, or is it a copyright violation? Eureka Lott 13:31, 2 April 2025 (UTC)

  • The map doesn't contain any artistry beyond TOO. Rather, it contains simple diagrams and texts only. Should be below TOO as per TOO#Maps.
Meghmollar2017Talk • 14:35, 2 April 2025 (UTC)
  • It's not a map of existing conditions, though, It's an unbuilt proposal for a public transportation network. {{PD-map}} says that it applies to maps that consist "entirely of information that is common property and contains no original authorship." That's not the case here. - Eureka Lott 15:45, 2 April 2025 (UTC)
    OK, noted, but what elements of it would make it over COM:TOO US? -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 16:30, 2 April 2025 (UTC)
  • COM:TOO notes that it's used to "distinguish works that are sufficiently original to warrant copyright protection from those that are not." Since the image is entirely an original work, I don't see how this can be anything other than a copyright violation. Also, the image is currently tagged as the uploader's own work, which is not accurate. - Eureka Lott 16:45, 2 April 2025 (UTC)
    Please read COM:TOO US, specifically. Mere originality is not sufficient for a copyright in the U.S. Ikan Kekek (talk) 18:04, 2 April 2025 (UTC)
    There is a substantial degree of creativity involved in drafting a topological transport map like this one - neither subways nor rivers tend to follow straight lines as shown in this image. PD-map applies to maps which are purely geographic in nature, like File:Appraisers.com - Map of the United States - May 2002.gif; this map is not that. Omphalographer (talk) 22:42, 2 April 2025 (UTC)
    OK, thanks for the explanation. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 23:30, 2 April 2025 (UTC)
    @Omphalographer, Therefore, many logos would have been disqualified for TOO if we consider the degree of creativity those logos required, despite using simple texts and shapes. But considering their use of basic shapes, they are kept on Commons. — Meghmollar2017Talk • 11:48, 3 April 2025 (UTC)

Exhibitionist material, no direct educational value

LevandeMänniska (talk), 16:34, 2 April 2025 (UTC)

There is no reasoning in the text. Its simply a collection of well known stereotypes about nudity. But nudity is not bad, its not artificial, it is natural. Because of licencing I have to confirm here at first place (!) that the footage is only from me and nobody else is involved. Therefore the accuse "exhibitionist" is a contradiction. The categories are completely new and there is no comparable footage in Commons. So the the educational value is high.
Last but not least licencing problems in Openstreetmap are similar. Most edits in OSM are made without the mapper ever have been at the place. Therefore its crucial to proof the real presence. Nacktiv (talk) 18:37, 6 April 2025 (UTC)

The state insignia is not under the Thai Copyright Law, therefore consider a public domain. Moreover, the seal was designed in 1941, which could already make the seal itself, even in case of being protected by any law of license, exceeding the copyright duration.

File:Map of Kurdish-inhabited provinces of Iran, according to a poll in 2010.PNG

This file is designed by a Turkish person who clearly spread falsified information. West Azerbaijan is mostly inhabited by Kurds but as you can see with Photoshop or any other photo editor he changed it to %21.7. Unfortunately fascist Turks spread false information all over Wikipedia specially the English version. If you check the English and Persian version you can see the difference. All over West Azerbayjan Kurds are living while Azari Turks are only in few middle and north cities but because government is backing them against Kurds they have power and spread false information about Kurdish population of West Azerbayjan. 2.99.207.114 16:40, 27 May 2019 (UTC)

 Keep: This file is in use on many Wikipedia articles, from az:Kürdlər to tr:Kürtler. Under COM:NPOV, Commons should not delete files that are used on other projects simply for being inaccurate. This doesn't stop you editing those various Wikipedias, noting the inaccuracies on File:Map of Kurdish-inhabited provinces of Iran, according to a poll in 2010.PNG (linking to a better map would be good), or discussing the matter on File talk:Map of Kurdish-inhabited provinces of Iran, according to a poll in 2010.PNG. --bjh21 (talk) 12:24, 28 May 2019 (UTC)

File:Map of Kurdish-inhabited provinces of Iran, according to a poll in 2010.PNG

This map is inaccurate and inaccurate because the Kurdish population in West Azerbaijan province is more than fifty percent and now the twelve representatives of the province are seven Kurds. Kurdistan sarbarz (talk) 00:36, 2 April 2025 (UTC)

 Keep per above. This map is probably outdated, so you are welcome to create a more up-to-date and accurate map, but this doesn’t mean it should be deleted. Tvpuppy (talk) 04:58, 2 April 2025 (UTC)
Behåll The map might be outdated, but if the year is stated in the caption this is not a problem. A new very similar map has been placed on Commons by Kurdistan sarbarz and in at least SVWP this 2010 map has been exchanged for the new one. BUT: the nww one gives netiher year nor sources. Until this is declared, I think that the new map cannot be trusted and should not be used. Also when this is done, there is no reason to delete the olld one - just give them different years in the file namne Chandra Varena (talk) 06:55, 2 April 2025 (UTC)

This is a false and anti-Kurdish map and should be removed because it was published by a non-Iranian person with profit-seeking and fascist goals. The Kurdish population in West Azerbaijan province is more than what is shown on this map. Kurdistan sarbarz (talk) 20:02, 2 April 2025 (UTC)

Previous discussions have found the "old" Instagram logo is non-free. Also, the swarm logo is probably non-free (it's NFC in its enwiki article). Therefore, this image contains some non-free components.
