Thanks for uploading File:SWAT Global Strike Team - Screenshot.jpg. I notice that the file page either doesn't contain enough information about the license or it contains contradictory information about the license, so the copyright status is unclear.
If you created this file yourself, then you must provide a valid copyright tag. For example, you can tag it with {{self|GFDL|cc-by-sa-all}} to release it under the multi-license GFDL plus Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike All-version license or you can tag it with {{PD-self}} to release it into the public domain. (See Commons:Copyright tags for the full list of license tags that you can use.) If you did not create the file yourself or if it is a derivative of another work that is possibly subject to copyright protection, then you must specify where you found it (e.g. usually a link to the web page where you got it), you must provide proof that it has a license that is acceptable for Commons (e.g. usually a link to the terms of use for content from that page), and you must add an appropriate license tag. If you did not create the file yourself and the specific source and license information is not available on the web, you must obtain permission through the VRT system and follow the procedure described there. Note that any unsourced or improperly licensed files will be deleted one week after they have been marked as lacking proper information, as described in criteria for deletion. If you have uploaded other files, please confirm that you have provided the proper information for those files, too. If you have any questions about licenses please ask at Commons:Village pump/Copyright or see our help pages. Thank you. |

AI upscaling
[edit]From the monitor text in File:Lori Cole Sierra Entertainment 1998.jpg you've used some kind of AI software to upscale the photograph. Is there any chance you could also upload the original, unmodified version of the photo? I'm also wondering if the same thing is happening at File:Quest-for-Glory---Cheetaur.jpg, but don't know what the model is actually supposed to look like up close.
The guidelines on English Wikipedia say to use original historical photos wherever possible, so it'd be good to have those if we can. Anyone researching this stuff would much rather have the grainy or blurry original than a version where an AI has sharpened things up but also made some (potentially very wrong) guesses about what else needed correcting, and how.

Additionally, please do not say the source for these images is your own work: the authors are Sierra On-Line. Thanks, WhoAteMyButter (talk) 04:07, 25 April 2024 (UTC)

Source of derivative work is not properly indicated: File:SierraOn-Line-ImaginationNetwork.jpg
[edit]This file may be deleted. |
A file that you have uploaded to Wikimedia Commons, File:SierraOn-Line-ImaginationNetwork.jpg, is a derivative work, containing an "image within an image". Examples of such works would include a photograph of a sculpture, a scan of a magazine cover, or a map that has been altered from the original. In each of these cases, the rights of the creator of the original must be considered, as well as those of the creator of the derivative work.
While the description page states who made this derivative work, it currently doesn't specify who created the original work, so the overall copyright status is unclear. If you did not create the original work depicted in this image, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. Please edit the file description and add the missing information, or the file may be deleted. If you created the original content yourself, enter this information as the source. If someone else created the content, the source should be the address to the web page where you found it, the name and ISBN of the book you scanned it from, or similar. You should also name the author, provide verifiable information to show that the content is in the public domain or has been published under a free license by its author, and add an appropriate template identifying the public domain or licensing status, if you have not already done so. Please add the required information for this and other files you have uploaded before adding more files. If you need assistance, please ask at the help desk. Thank you! |
