Thanks for uploading File:Old Republic emblem.png. This media is missing permission information. A source is given, but there is no proof that the author or copyright holder agreed to license the file under the given license. Please provide a link to an appropriate webpage with license information, or ask the author or copyright holder to send an email with copy of a written permission to VRT ([email protected]). You may still be required to go through this procedure even if you are the author yourself; please see Commons:But it's my own work! for more details. After you emailed permission, you may replace the {{No permission since}} tag with {{subst:PP}} on file description page. Alternatively, you may click on "Challenge speedy deletion" below the tag if you wish to provide an argument why evidence of permission is not necessary in this case.
Please see this page for more information on how to confirm permission, or if you would like to understand why we ask for permission when uploading work that is not your own, or work which has been previously published (regardless of whether it is your own). The file probably has been deleted. If you sent a permission, try to send it again after 14 days. Do not re-upload. When the VRT-member processes your mail, the file can be undeleted. Additionally you can request undeletion here, providing a link to the File-page on Commons where it was uploaded ([[:File:Old Republic emblem.png]] ) and the above demanded information in your request. |

Coats of arms deletion requests
editHello, although I generally agree with your assessment of those symbols, my experience over the years has been that being inaccurate or based on uploader's own liberal interpretation of historical coat of arms is not a grounds for deletion unless they were uploaded with malicious intent (hoax, trolling, vandalism). Alternate history, user-made micronation symbols etc. have been kept as in-scope multiple times when I nominated them around 2 years ago when cleaning out Flags main category. Because of that, I would advise you to dispute the accuracy with Template:Disputed coat of arms or Template:Fictional and making sure that they aren't used on projects where you are active rather than nominating all for deletion.--TFerenczy (talk) 12:12, 8 January 2020 (UTC)
- Hi. Okay, I agree more or less, but the author all templates denoting his files as fictional instantly erases, so what to do with it? --Dragovit (talk) 13:18, 8 January 2020 (UTC)

I have added what I beelieve is your source as an hyperlink in the description. Is it the right source? If it is, it seems strange to me that those Bs be going up, as according to this source they should be going down. Veverve (talk) 02:24, 13 January 2021 (UTC)
Also, I cannot find any image of the portolan chart of Gabriel de Vallseca of 1439 whose resolution would be high enough to see what the Byzantine flag looks like. Since you said you used it to make File:Byzantine imperial flag, 14th century according to portolan charts.png, could you give your source and possibly upload it on Commons? It would help me in my research at Category talk:Flags of the Palaiologos dynasty. Veverve (talk) 03:07, 13 January 2021 (UTC)

Veverve (talk) 03:19, 17 January 2021 (UTC)
- It's not easy to answer. I created the flag based on the Pietro Vesconte's map and also accordint to the website hubert-herald.nl/ByzantiumArms where is the different picture of the Veconte's map and also their own rendition of the flag. When I compare these sources, it seems to me that Bs be going up and I consider my version to be correct. As for the map of Gabriel de Vallseca's map, i also saw the same image in low resolution, but it seems to me that the flag there is identical or similar. The only difference is that the flag is square with tiny tails and the Bs are elongated, but they are laid identically. Of course, I didn't made the flag on the basis of this map, but I added it to the description as a additionaly source to support the other two sources. The flag is based on a combination of three sources. – Dragovit 09:55, 18 January 2021 (UTC)
- Thank you for answering.
- 1) I believed your Bs did not point toward the correct direction. However, now I understand you used a different source, and not the one I had indicated in your description. I will fix it right now.
- 2) Could you add Gabriel de Vallseca's map you used in your description? Veverve (talk) 17:27, 18 January 2021 (UTC)
While I am a it, could you give the source you used to make File:Byzantine Divellion Standard.png? Veverve (talk) 13:15, 24 January 2021 (UTC)

Source of derivative work is not properly indicated: File:Byzantine-Ottoman Wars-1-withborders.PNG
editThis file may be deleted. |
A file that you have uploaded to Wikimedia Commons, File:Byzantine-Ottoman Wars-1-withborders.PNG, 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! |

Flag of Austria-Hungary
editHey, I noticed your move request at File:Flag of Austria-Hungary (1869-1918).svg which you've requested be moved to File:Civil ensign of Austria-Hungary (1869–1918).svg. Notice that there is also File:Civil ensign of Austria-Hungary (1869-1918).svg which is different but named exactly the same. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Gonnym (talk • contribs) 08:43, 18 November 2021 (UTC)
- Hi. There are no different. It's not true, because both are just representations of one flag and therefore I demand the same (similar) name. The idea that this flag is different from the first is wrong, it's just a different design, but the same flag. Thanks for your message. Dragovit (talk) 08:00, 19 November 2021 (UTC)

Coat of arms of the House of Toulouse-Tripoli
editHi, I saw that you created File:Coat of arms of the House of Toulouse-Tripoli.png and was wondering whether it was an actual CoA, and if so what is the source, or if it was attributed or fictional? --Red Phoenician (talk) 04:57, 26 April 2022 (UTC)
- Hi. To create this CoA I was inspired by those site Wappenwiki.org/House of Toulouse (please use link) and there is. I'm not sure what it's based on, but there are only historical coats of arms and all heraldry on this site is accurate. Dragovit (talk) 11:23, 26 April 2022 (UTC)
- Ok thank you for the clarification. Red Phoenician (talk) 00:36, 28 April 2022 (UTC)
Do not disrupt Wikimedia Commons to illustrate a point
editHi,
Please stop immediately to disrupt Wikimedia Commons to illustrate a point. I refer to your...stuff related to the domain public Czech lion image reusage.
Take this as a final warning, please. --Benoît (d) 08:39, 25 May 2023 (UTC)
- Hi. Why are you writing me this warning? We only discuss to reach a consensus and that's exactly what happened, right now. I had a discussion with the author of the files. Since when is discussion considered disruptive? Please do not obstruct communication between users. It is absolutely not as you describe it, we are looking for the best solution for all.
EDIT: As for the warning I added to the file, that's a common template with a message. I also don't know what's disruptive about it and why it can't be there. It's just a red box with text which is commonly used. The users should be informed about the file before using it. The purpose of this is educational, not to disturb something.
