[edit]Source site's copyright notice claims {{Copyleft}}, but adds its own Commons-incompatible clause that le matériel utilisé ne doit pas l'être à des fins commerciales ("the material used must not be used for commercial purposes"). This sentence has been present there since at least 2008, prior to all of these uploads to Commons.
Their copyright page also includes the umimpressive note that some of their site's content was taken from the web without permission or credit (Bien que les textes du Cerveau à tous les Niveaux soient une synthèse originale, nous n'avons cependant pas hésité à emprunter au besoin des images disponibles sur le web en citant la source à chaque fois que cela était possible. Car pour nous, Internet doit garder sa vocation de partage de l'information et quiconque met des choses sur le Net avec des droits d'utilisation trop restrictifs se trompe tout simplement de média., "Although the Cerveau à tous les Niveaux texts are an original synthesis, we have not hesitated to borrow images available on the web if necessary, citing the source whenever possible. Because for us, the Internet must retain its purpose of sharing information and anyone who puts things on the Net with overly restrictive usage rights is simply using the wrong media.") and that they will remove such images if requested.

- Comment: @Belbury: I am not very familiar with the nuances of copyright on Commons, but I was drawn here by an automatic post on a Wikipedia talk page in which a few of these pictures appeared. The reason I watched that particular article is because I've known for some time now that most of the text and pictures in it are the work of a very problematic editor/fringe theory promoter that some of us were cleaning up after (but unfortunately did not finish yet) whose username is Yohan Castel. That editor uploaded three out of the five pictures to Commons that you nominated for deletion above. That user has a number of additional uploads. Some of their other pictures appear to likely be copyright violations, as they are nearly if not totally identical to many images appearing in published works by one Serge Wunsch (with whom we believe he has a conflict of interest, to put it lightly). Now, since the user "Yohan Castel" has never admitted to having permission to upload content by Serge Wunsch, it seems likely to me that for that user to do so constitutes a copyright violation.
- Here is one example. This image is claimed to be Yohan Castel's "own work". Note especially the original version uploaded 13:48. It is almost exactly the same as the image found in a PDF of this book, page 69, at Wunsch's website, which does claim at the bottom to be copyleft. But the book is a published book with a cover, and may not be.
- Is this sort of thing a violation? If so, I can let you know about other issues of this type in Yohan Castel's uploads. -Crossroads- (talk) 20:28, 4 March 2024 (UTC)
