Nine more images of the 1997 Jarrell tornado by Scott Beckwith

These nine images were all taken by Scott Beckwith, of Jarrell Farm Supply. The uploader sourced them from an ArcGIS "Storymap" published by the National Weather Service, on the basis that they were in the Public Domain because they had been created by an employee of the US Federal Government in the performance of their duties.

However:

Scott Beckwith was not a federal employee performing his duties
there is no claim at the source that these images are in the public domain or licensed under a free license

As photos taken in the United States after 1989, they are therefore protected by copyright and we cannot host them here.

Closing admins should familiarise themselves with the evidence and discussions at this RfC when closing this request.

Conditional delete on all images per above. Conditional as to whether or not we still can’t contact this guy. Hurricane Clyde 🌀^{my talk page!} 22:18, 11 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

To me, it's very curious that given how famous these images are, I can't turn up a single interview with him, not at the time, and not in any histories or retrospectives of the event. All we know about him is that he was at Jarrell Farm Supply that day, and that he was a "feed store manager" (it's not even 100% clear that he worked at/managed that specific store, or whether he was at Jarrell Farm Supply that day as a buyer, or seller, or just a visitor or passer-by!) And that he apparently shot two rolls of film (implies that there were more photos taken than just the dozen or so that have been published and re-published over the years)

There's at least one tonado You-tuber who's also searched unsuccessfully for him.

I do know that the most famous photo from the sequence was being distributed by the Associated Press a few days after the event, so the AP either licenced or bought outright at least one of these images and perhaps more. (Why would you license or buy just one of the images and risk a competitor licensing or buying others?) But none of the Beckwith images appears to be currently offered for licensing by the AP, at least not in their online collection.

I do have another lead on someone who lived in the area at the time and who I think might have known Mr Beckwith at the time. I've emailed them. --Rlandmann (talk) 00:03, 12 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I found a few people named Scott Beckwith from Texas, but it's not clear if any of them are the Scott Beckwith we're looking for. Ixfd64 (talk) 00:12, 12 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Three images of the aftermath of the 1997 Jarrell tornado by Tim Marshall

These three images were all taken by meteorologist and civil engineer Tim Marshall, of Haag Global. The uploader sourced them from an ArcGIS "Storymap" published by the National Weather Service, on the basis that they were in the Public Domain because they had been created by an employee of the US Federal Government in the performance of their duties. The uploader also incorrectly attributed these images to "NWS, NOAA, KVUE Austin" when there is no evidence that any of these organisations were involved in creating them.

However:

Tim Marshall was not a federal employee performing his duties
there is no claim at the source that these images are in the public domain or licensed under a free license

As photos taken in the United States after 1989, they are therefore protected by copyright and we cannot host them here.

Comment — Can confirm Tim Marshall did not work with NOAA until 2003. For reference, Mr. Marshall has worked with Haag Engineering 1983 to present. However, in 2003, he began to jointly work for the NOAA Quick Response Team (along with Haag), which meant he surveyed (E)F4-(E)F5 for NOAA officially since 2003. In 1997, he did not work for NOAA.

Comment: You mentioned in Commons:Deletion requests/File:The April 19, 2023 Cole, Oklahoma EF3 Tornado courtesy of Tim Marshall.jpg that you were in correspondence with Tim Marshall. I assume he either didn't respond or agree to a release of rights? Ixfd64 (talk) 17:05, 11 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as unused; potentially useful to illustrate syntax highlighting but there is not a shortage of such images and I'm not sure anything significant is being demonstrated here.

Also mild copyvio concerns. Given that File:CodeSection003.png contains paragraphs of text from a photography website, these may just be screenshots of the HTML source of somebody else's website. Belbury (talk) 12:00, 25 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thirteen images of the 1997 Jarrell tornado taken from TV news sources

From KVUE Austin

From KXAN Austin

From CBS Austin

The uploader originally sourced all thirteen of these images from an ArcGIS "Storymap" published by the National Weather Service (and in some cases, has digitally altered the images, possibly with AI). In turn, at the source, the NWS attributes these images to three television stations, as noted above.

The uploader claimed that these were all created by employees of the US Federal Government in the performance of their duties.

However:

there is no evidence that any of these were created by employees of the US Federal Government in the performance of their duties.
there is no claim at the source that these images are in the public domain for any other reason, or licensed under a free license

As photos (or videos) taken in the United States after 1989, they are therefore protected by copyright and we cannot host them here.

There is no freedom of panorama in Russia for sculptures. Although the person died in 1924, by style this is post-1991 monument. Taivo (talk) 10:59, 11 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The data base says it's from 1924 https://ru-monuments.toolforge.org/wikivoyage.php?id=4300235000 Nakonana (talk) 20:36, 14 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The monument can't be from post-1991 because it has been a cultural heritage monument ever since 1966, per "Решение Кировского облисполкома № 560 от 30.08.1966". Nakonana (talk) 20:39, 14 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The official website of the Ministry of Culture of the Russian Federation (MKRF) confirms that this monument was created in 1924 (see "дата создания1924 г." on https://opendata.mkrf.ru/opendata/7705851331-egrkn/45/228738) Nakonana (talk) 20:52, 14 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Quite surprising, that it was allowed to create such gravestone in 1924. But it is still likely copyrighted. If we do not know the sculptor, then we cannot be sure, that (s)he is 70 years dead (Russia demands often even 74 years). Taivo (talk) 09:48, 15 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Wouldn't it fall under 2.) for anonymous authorship of Template:PD-Russia-expired or Template:PD-Russia-1996 or Template:PD-Russia? Nakonana (talk) 14:01, 15 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

PD-Russia-1996 applies, if the sculpture is anonymous. But is it anonymous? The fact that I and you do not know the author does not make it anonymous. Is there an expert or database, who confirms anonymous work? Taivo (talk) 13:31, 16 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The database of the Ministry of Culture also doesn't know / list the author. Does that count? Nakonana (talk) 18:14, 16 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

File:Alva Chiang standing on the stage, AGA male staff recording 20230513 (cropped).jpg

This file was initially tagged by Solomon203 as Speedy (SD) and the most recent rationale was: G1. I do not see reason for speedy deletion and allow discussion for a week. Taivo (talk) 11:33, 11 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This page is redirected to File:Alva Chiang standing and holding microphone on the stage 20230513 (cropped).jpg, but Solomon203 removed it and tagged with speedy delete. He has not provided an explanation for his action, so I suggest keeping this page.--125.230.85.27 12:45, 11 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: As the creator I suppose I should at least clarify that I didn't create the redirect accidentally or as a test: it was a routine (and indeed automatic) creation along with renaming the file. I renamed the file under criterion 3 (obvious error) because the "AGA male staff" does not appear in the cropped version, but I don't think the name is so inaccurate that there's significant harm in keeping it. I have unblanked the redirect because I don't think it's appropriate to blank a redirect while it's being discussed. --bjh21 (talk) 17:43, 11 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comment – While I perceive the text as fine, the paper crane makes me believe this is above the threshold, per Commons:TOO Japan. EdoAug (talk) 17:56, 11 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comment – the orizuru paper crane is a critical part of Nihon Hidankyō's logo: removing the orizuru would tarnish the file's meaning. The orizuru itself is not in copyright, and there are already free images of the orizuru, such as File:Origami - Crane.svg. However, I cannot make a decision until (1) we find out if Nihon Hidankyō consistently uses a particular angle of the orizuru, and (2) someone makes a version of "Origami - Crane.svg" at that particular angle. --Minoa (talk) 20:30, 11 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

File:Wappen Heuser.JPG

Diese Grafik hat Schöpfungshöhe, da vermutlich gezeichnet bzw. gemalt. "Eigenes Werk" würde bedeuten, dass Jula2812 diese Grafik eigenhändig erstellt hat (anstatt sie z. B. zu fotografieren oder zu scannen). Dies bezweifle ich. GerritR (talk) 20:20, 11 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Ohje, dass ist 10 Jahre her – und tatsächlich habe ich das gemalte Wappen aus der Nachlass-Sammlung abfotografiert. Es war im Besitz von Werner Heuser († 1964), wobei ich mit Sicherheit sagen kann, dass das Gemälde nicht von seiner Hand, sondern schon älteren Ursprungs ist. Er hatte selber Ahnenforschung betrieben und darüber mit seinem Onkel Peter Georg Heuser († während des 1. Weltkrieges) sich ausgetauscht. Somit müsste das Bild zumindest Urheber: unbekannt / Quelle: aus Nachlass und {{PD-old-70}}. Zu dem Heuser Wappen existiert noch ein Foto eines vermutlich im 2. Weltkrieg verschollenen Bildes, ein Stempelsiegel und ein Abdruck in Siegellack. Der beschreibende Text ist aus den Annalen der Heusers aus Gummersbach.
