- This is a derivative work of File:Wilcannia location map in New South Wales.PNG. That file is in turn a derivative work of File:NSWhighways.png which was deleted as having no source in 2011. Stefan2 (talk) 23:07, 21 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- The now deleted File:NSWhighways.png was created by User:Fikri who created a lot of the early Australia locator maps that still exist on Commons. Not sure why there is all of a sudden a problem with the NSW ones and not ones like File:Birdsville location map in Queensland.PNG of Queensland and File:Lakes entrance location map in Victoria.PNG. -- Mattinbgn (talk) 23:35, 21 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Could someone try to confirm the source for File:NSWhighways.png? Was the F4 deletion correct? What does the file information page say? Fikri seems to have been inactive since 2007 so it might not be possible to get any new information from the user. If the F4 deletion was correct and we can't find any statement from the uploader proving Mattinbgn's claim, we would probably have to delete lots of files on Commons and Wikipedia. --Stefan2 (talk) 01:00, 22 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

- Thank You Stefan2, I read the source link you provided. However, I have a question... The picture in question is that of a school crest so how does the source link you provided apply to it? I don't really see how it is considered a work of art, when it has been treated as anything other than a work of art? I'm not trying to be difficult I just want to understand thoroughly. Any assistance in this matter is greatly appreciated. -- Avazina, (Talk to me) 19:27, 26 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Basically, anything that is more than just type and simple geometric shapes is, for the purposes of intellectual property law, is "art". If a kid so much as scribbles something on a napkin, the rights to that work belongs to the kid. And the rights to a photograph of that napkin scribble also belongs to the kid. --Mosmof (talk) 22:24, 26 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- I have found a more appropriate tag for the image, since it is a photo of a School symbol. I have placed this tags *{{Non-free symbol}} and a Non-free media use rationale on the page for the School Symbol in question. -- Avazina, (Talk to me) 23:23, 26 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
