• No evidence that the logo for the 2010 film meets WP:NFCC conditions for use at Green Hornet; the non-free use rationale appears invalid. The image does not provide information that is necessary for the interpretation of the article about the character or various adaptations. The article on the 2010 film already contains an image of the film poster with a proper rationale. The image is also of poor quality and contains significant artifacting.

• No indication that the author / manager / artist has released the image under a free license. Just says "image used by permission from Rock Ridge Music, the artist's manager and label" Crisco 1492 (talk) 00:30, 16 February 2012 (UTC)

:To allow Wikipedia to use the image, the label also needs to allow everyone to use it under a free license.

• Dubious own work. Uploader appears to have uploaded a lot of copyvios. Stefan2 (talk) 01:18, 16 February 2012 (UTC)

:Doesn't the image's metadata suggests that the uploader was in possession of the original digital photograph file which was then altered on the day of the upload? That would seem to make it more likely that it is an "own work". or am I getting this wrong? Meowy 00:31, 17 February 2012 (UTC)

::The metadata state that the photo was taken in 2007 and photoshopped in 2012. The uploader may have found an old photo on the Internet, done some change in Photoshop (e.g. cropping) and then uploaded it here. The uploader has three images (this one taken with a Nikon camera, one taken with a Kodak camera and one without EXIF). People usually use few cameras. --Stefan2 (talk) 18:20, 17 February 2012 (UTC)

:::I guess the photoshoping will be the reduction in size and/or adding the vignette. But, family photos aside, you don't usually find large photos on the internet complete with full exif data - and tineye reveals no other versions (though that isn't conclusive of course). Having a past record of vopyvios might be an important decider - but only if those copy violations were definately for the use of the work of others. Meowy 15:49, 18 February 2012 (UTC)

:::*Following the copyright information in the Exif data leads me to [http://www.modelmayhem.com/361261 Synergii1 photography], which seems to be owned by a woman named Susan Shek, based out of New York. A check user could see where the editor is uploading from to help figure out if this is a copyvio. Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:57, 18 February 2012 (UTC)

• Per List of statues in Yerevan, this is a statue from 1967. Per commons:COM:FOP#Former Soviet Union, it is unfree. Stefan2 (talk) 18:20, 16 February 2012 (UTC)

::Under article 19 of the Armenian Law on Copyright it states that images of works protected by copyright are allowable for free use where "the use of lawfully disclosed works of literature and art and extracts thereof by way of illustration, in the publications, programs of broadcasting organizations, audio and video recordings of educational nature, to the extent justified by the purpose of illustration of education". Surely here the image illustrates the statue for the purpose of education and is an ILLUSTRATION of an art object (a statue), it is NOT a copy of the statue as defined in the Armenian copyright law. The copyright law defines a work as "a specific result of a creative work in the field of science, literature or arts, expressed in some objective form" and a copy of a work as "a duplicate of a work, made in any material form". A 2D-photographic image of a free-standing statue is not a duplicate the original statue under the Armenian copyright laws. Meowy 22:06, 16 February 2012 (UTC)

:::The problem is article 16: "Without the consent of the author and another copyright holder and without paying the author's remuneration it is permitted to reproduce, broadcast works of architecture, photography or figurative arts which are located in public places, with the exception of the cases when the image of the work is the main object of such reproduction or broadcasting, and when the image of the work is used for commercial purposes." --Stefan2 (talk) 22:30, 16 February 2012 (UTC)

::::Yes, but this illustration of the original work is not being used for commercial purposes, so doesn't it falls under the remit of article 19? Article 19 must be there to include something, after all! Surely the "main object" here is the wikipedia article, a work of educational nature, and the image itself is not the "main object" (images on Wikipedia have to be placed in articles to be additions to the written content - they are not stand-alone things). I understand that this might mean that a more restrictive and proscriptive copyright note might be needed for the image, but that would be preferable to loosing the image. Meowy 00:09, 17 February 2012 (UTC)

:::::Wikipedia requires that images be reusable for commercial purposes. The "main object" is the main object of the image, not the main object of the Wikipedia article. The non-commercial clause means that you can freely take photos of houses or statues in Armenia and put them in your own personal photo album (unlike France where the police technically could arrest you for doing such things). --Stefan2 (talk) 10:10, 17 February 2012 (UTC)

::::::Your interpretation of the word "main object" is different from mine. I think "main object", under the Armenian law, is intended to mean the "main purpose" (the words used are "the main object of such reproduction" not "the main object IN such reproduction). So the law is saying that it is permitable to use an image of an object as long as the display of that image is not in a context in which the display of the image is the main purpose of the display. Because the image is being displayed in the context of a larger article, that display is not the main object (i.e., main purpose) of its display. I don't see a good reason why Wikipedia should require that images be reusable for commercial purposes, but if that is the way it is for the present then a lot of useful images are going to be excluded. Meowy 16:10, 17 February 2012 (UTC)

:::::::"Main object": see commons:COM:DM for an explanation. --Stefan2 (talk) 18:38, 17 February 2012 (UTC)

::::::::I can see that being true on Wikimedia Commons, where images are stand-alone items, but when used on Wilipedia they are never stand-alone items. You don't search for "Mother Armenia, Yerevan" on Wikipedia and get the choice of the article page and also separate pages for each photograph used in the article page, and also pages for any photographs of it on Wikipedia servers that are not being used on the article page. The use of images is always in articles, and the use within the article is always incidental and of secondary importance. Basically I'm trying to argue that things are not cut and dry here, and there is no need to consider things in the worst possible case and read copyright laws in the broadest of terms. It is the job of any alleged injured party do that (and common sense says that in this case there will be no injured party). Meowy 16:03, 18 February 2012 (UTC)

• It's not known if Robert Goldston is still alive. If so, this is reproducible and therefore this is not acceptable for fair use Mblumber (talk) 18:23, 16 February 2012 (UTC)

Under article 19 of the Armenian Law on Copyright it states that images of works protected by copyright are allowable for free use where "the use of lawfully disclosed works of literature and art and extracts thereof by way of illustration, in the publications, programs of broadcasting organizations , audio and video recordings of educational nature, to the extent justified by the purpose of illustration of education". Surely here the image illustrates the statue for the purpose of education and is an ILLUSTRATION of an art object (a statue), it is NOT a copy of the statue as defined in the Armenian copyright law. The copyright law defines a work as "a specific result of a creative work in the field of science, literature or arts, expressed in some objective form" and a copy of a work as "a duplicate of a work, made in any material form". A 2D-photographic image of a free-standing statue is not a duplicate the original statue under the Armenian copyright laws. Meowy 22:03, 16 February 2012 (UTC)
