== Question and advice regarding Moe's Southwest Grill logo ==
== ] ==


Hi Explict. I recently uploaded to the Wikimedia Commons a new logo of Moe's Southwest Grill (File:Moes Southwest Grill logo.png). On 21 November 2023, an IP user made an edit that removed that logo from the article. The edit summary, in part, stated, "Removed outdated logo." After I had uploaded the new logo, I noticed that you had deleted the Misplaced Pages-stored image of ] on 10 February 2024, with the rationale "F5: Unused non-free media file". Although I am unable to view it due to its deletion, the evidence above suggests that this was the previous logo of Moe's Southwest Grill. To me, the new logo does not qualify for copyright protection as it does not appear to meet the originality threshold required for copyright. The new logo appears to merely consist of text and geometric symbols (a box, three triangles, and a generic pepper symbol), although it appears certainly eligible for trademark protection. There seems to be some level of consensus that the pepper symbol (see the commons entry to File:Chili's Logo.svg) is not copyrightable. I could understand an argument the elements are combined in a way that would make it copyrightable, but for the reasons mentioned above, I don't find it particularly persuasive. Since you are the deleting administrator on the original logo and are an admin on Commons, I will defer to your judgment over whether the current logo is copyrightable or not. If you feel it does meet copyright protection and delete it from commons, I would like to upload the new logo to Misplaced Pages under fair use rational, unless you have any objections. Thanks! ] (]) 12:41, 10 January 2025 (UTC)

Hi Explicit. Could you take a look at ]? I think it's a reupload of the same file you deleted back in November. The licensing is almost certainly incorrect and the file's not being used anywhere; so, I don't see a way to convert it to non-free (at least not at the moment).

Hi Explicit. Could you take a look at ]? No source or license was provided, but I'm guessing the image comes from some website (same image can by found on several websites like ). This almost certainly wasn't taken by the uploader; so, that makes the photo non-free. The packaging imagery as well is also likely non-free. The non-free photo in and of itself would most likely fail ] since a free photo or 2D non-free image could be used instead; however, the way the file's currently being used in ] most likely even means that a free or 2D non-free image of the packaging only would also fail NFCC#8. Should this be tagged with F4 or should it be tagged per F9? -- ] (]) 08:00, 16 January 2025 (UTC)

Could you also take a look at ]? It appears to be a reupload of a file you deleted per F4 yesterday, and it might be a selfie given how it's being used.

== Old AFD question ==

Hello, you closed this AFD, ], as a delete in 2022 and deleted the article ] as a part of that. I have found the duplicate article ] still exists, as near as I can tell because ] was moved there in 2009 but then someone turned that redirect back into an article.

== File:Starship Moments After Liftoff.jpeg ==

Hi Explicit. Would you mind taking a look at ]? All of this user's uploads so far have been screenshots from YouTube videos released under YT's standard licensing; so, I've tagged them for speedy deletion per F9. This particular file is also a screenshot but it's via {{url|https://spacenews.com/spacex-launches-sixth-starship-but-aborts-booster-landing/|this website}}, and unlike the others i'm wondering whether it might be possible to convert to a non-free license given the way it's being used in ]. I'm a bit hesitant though because ] seems to indicate that a free image of these SpaceX launches might be possible. SpaceX, itself, could even provide some acceptably licensed images if it wants. Is it then in your opinion even worth converting this to non-free per ]? -- ] (]) 06:22, 20 November 2024 (UTC)
:{{Reply to|Marchjuly}} Hi, I've deleted all the video screenshots as copyright violations. Aside from the most recent flight test, ] is the only other in the series that does not contain freely licensed media.

:::::Not just online communities. It's a common phrase men say to each other, at least in the US (or at least in the parts where I've been), stemming from "stepping on my dick" being a more emphatic version of "stepping on my toes", and thus "get off my dick" being a more emphatic version of "stop stepping on my toes" or "get off my back" or "get off my ass". But a man should ''never'' say "get off my dick" to a woman, because it obviously has a very different connotation in that context. Even where the phrase is common, a man saying it to a woman would be a major faux pas. It was a dumb and offensive thing for Explicit to say to Liz. ] (]) 19:31, 21 November 2024 (UTC)

Question and advice regarding Moe's Southwest Grill logo

Hi Explict. I recently uploaded to the Wikimedia Commons a new logo of Moe's Southwest Grill (File:Moes Southwest Grill logo.png). On 21 November 2023, an IP user made an edit that removed that logo from the article. The edit summary, in part, stated, "Removed outdated logo." After I had uploaded the new logo, I noticed that you had deleted the Misplaced Pages-stored image of File:Moes logo.png on 10 February 2024, with the rationale "F5: Unused non-free media file". Although I am unable to view it due to its deletion, the evidence above suggests that this was the previous logo of Moe's Southwest Grill. To me, the new logo does not qualify for copyright protection as it does not appear to meet the originality threshold required for copyright. The new logo appears to merely consist of text and geometric symbols (a box, three triangles, and a generic pepper symbol), although it appears certainly eligible for trademark protection. There seems to be some level of consensus that the pepper symbol (see the commons entry to File:Chili's Logo.svg) is not copyrightable. I could understand an argument the elements are combined in a way that would make it copyrightable, but for the reasons mentioned above, I don't find it particularly persuasive. Since you are the deleting administrator on the original logo and are an admin on Commons, I will defer to your judgment over whether the current logo is copyrightable or not. If you feel it does meet copyright protection and delete it from commons, I would like to upload the new logo to Misplaced Pages under fair use rational, unless you have any objections. Thanks!

File:Dumbdora3729.jpg

When deleting files per WP:F8, please ensure that Commons has the high-resolution copy of the file, not just the bot-reduced WP:NFCC#3b version. --Stefan2 (talk) 16:33, 11 January 2025 (UTC)

@Stefan2: I have uploaded the higher resolution. plicit 12:17, 12 January 2025 (UTC)

File:La malédiction de l'escargot, 2020.jpg

Hi Explicit. Could you take a look at File:La malédiction de l'escargot, 2020.jpg? I think it's a reupload of the same file you deleted back in November. The licensing is almost certainly incorrect and the file's not being used anywhere; so, I don't see a way to convert it to non-free (at least not at the moment). I tagged the file with "npd" per F11, but this probably meets to criteria for F9. -- Marchjuly (talk) 11:28, 15 January 2025 (UTC)

@Marchjuly: Hi, it is indeed the same image. The use of {{npd}} works in this case. plicit 11:57, 15 January 2025 (UTC)
Thanks for checking. -- Marchjuly (talk) 20:51, 15 January 2025 (UTC)

File:Pop-weaver-22pack.jpg

Hi Explicit. Could you take a look at File:Pop-weaver-22pack.jpg? No source or license was provided, but I'm guessing the image comes from some website (same image can by found on several websites like here). This almost certainly wasn't taken by the uploader; so, that makes the photo non-free. The packaging imagery as well is also likely non-free. The non-free photo in and of itself would most likely fail WP:FREER since a free photo or 2D non-free image could be used instead; however, the way the file's currently being used in Weaver Popcorn Company#Pop Weaver most likely even means that a free or 2D non-free image of the packaging only would also fail NFCC#8. Should this be tagged with F4 or should it be tagged per F9? -- Marchjuly (talk) 08:00, 16 January 2025 (UTC)

File:Jay Estiquita.jpg

Could you also take a look at File:Jay Estiquita.jpg? It appears to be a reupload of a file you deleted per F4 yesterday, and it might be a selfie given how it's being used. The uploader has also uploaded several other files without licensing or source information too (some have already been deleted) that probably need to be assessed. File:OctoArtsFilms2017.jpg looks like it might be OK to convert to non-free, but I'm not sure the same can be said about File:MTRCBSPG2012.gif. -- Marchjuly (talk) 08:09, 16 January 2025 (UTC)

File:Manmohanmisra.jpeg

File:Manmohanmisra.jpeg is another file you deleted that's been reuploaded. You deleted this or another file with the same name last August per F11. There's a claim of permission that this is a "family" photo received from photo subject's daughter, but there's nothing provided to verify that. This seems similar to what was claimed for the photo before. Do you think if this is the same photo that it's OK to tag with {{npd}} again or should it go to FFD this time around? FWIW, this is the same as File:In Cuttack -- late '90s rev.jpg uploaded to Commons by the same person; the Commons file, though, is being claimed as "own work", which is different from what's being claimned for the local file. -- Marchjuly (talk) 00:16, 17 January 2025 (UTC)
