Wikipedia:Possibly unfree files/2011 October 30

:The following discussion is an archived inquiry of the possible unfree file below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the media's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the discussion was: delete. Here's the issue: From all of the discussion I've read, both here and on Commons, I feel comfortable that the coat of arms is most likely public domain. The reason that all of these files have been deleted is because the image was lifted from a non-free site. Considering that the only problem is where that particular rendering of the otherwise public domain coat of arms came from, this just means we have to make our own or appropriate one from a public domain source. That also means that as a non-free image, it fails WP:NFCC#1, and that means deletion. Thus if you want a coat of arms (and I think such a thing would be a valuable addition), it's got to be completely free, no ifs, ands, or buts. SchuminWeb (Talk) 23:42, 23 November 2011 (UTC)

• see commons:Commons:Deletion requests/File:Coat of arms of Dominica.png. Fair use probably applies at Coat of arms of Dominica, so I request that if the decision is non-free, that the item not be deleted but given a rationale and pruned from other articles. Magog the Ogre (talk) 00:06, 30 October 2011 (UTC)

::PD under Dominican Law, the file will be kept on Commons, so the Wikipeda-EN file can be deleted. Magog doesn't understand the licensing process, but that's his problem. Fry1989 ^eh? 00:46, 30 October 2011 (UTC)

:::Also keep this, it's from Vector Images too. However, if an SVG is made by a Wikipedian, it will be free and can go to Commons. Fry1989 ^eh? 01:53, 30 October 2011 (UTC)

::::Doesn't that necessarily mean it would fail WP:NFCC#1? Same with the image immediately below. Magog the Ogre (talk) 03:15, 30 October 2011 (UTC)

:::::No that's not true. Zscout370 and I talked about it. He has already found the blazon of the arms of Dominica described in official government text, and it's only a matter of time fpr Gambia's as well. As long as we make an SVG of the arms following that blazon, the licenses I used when I moved these arms to Commons are correct. The only reason these arms are not allowed on Commons is because they are from Vector Images, which copyrights it's own works. That has no effect on a freely made version by a member of Wikipedia. You were wrong about the licenses, they were the right ones, it was just that these two arms are from VI. Fry1989 ^eh? 19:06, 30 October 2011 (UTC)

• Author and uploader names conflict. Eeekster (talk) 12:17, 30 October 2011 (UTC)

The file was given to me by the author of the picture (Maurizio Rossi). Are Source and Author conflicting? Jeremyjoshua (talk) 17:57, 30 October 2011 (UTC)

:The conflict is that you are the one who uploaded the file and put a copyright license tag on it that starts out "I, the copyright holder of this work, hereby publish it under the following licenses...". Since you are not the copyright holder, you can't license the copyright to this image. When Maurizio Rossi gave you a copy of his image, what license, if any, did he agree to regarding the use of his image? See WP:PERMISSION for instructions on how to obtain permission from a third-party in order to use their copyrighted works in Wikipedia. —RP88 ^(talk) 09:38, 31 October 2011 (UTC)
