UDR of UAE files

Hi, I undeleted the files. The DR is very long, and I don't have the time now to remove the DR notice on the files. Could you do that please? Thanks for your help, Yann (talk) 09:13, 16 July 2024 (UTC)

@Yann will do. Thanks for restoring. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 09:14, 16 July 2024 (UTC)

@Yann: re: template (this), I think we do not need to create a template. I's rather prefer adding a brief description on the year of completion and a note regarding PD status, plus a link to the involved discussion. For example: at Category:Jumeirah Mosque. Preferably, the PD-status descriptions are to be made bilingual (one for English and the other in Arabic). JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 13:07, 21 July 2024 (UTC)

File:3581Biñan City, Laguna Barangays Landmarks 06.jpg

Hello, I've been noticing that you've been reviewing images from the Philippines. Please take a look at this photo, File:3581Biñan City, Laguna Barangays Landmarks 06.jpg. Although the memorial used the photo of Alzona from the National Academy of Science and Technology, I'm not sure whether the memorial itself was commissioned by the Philippine government or was made by private institutions/individuals. There is also no information regarding when the memorial was made only the description tells that it is located in Biñan City, Laguna. I did not think much at first when I first saw it but seeing the amount of image violations the uploader has, it raised my concern regarding this particular photo that has been used in multiple Wikipedia articles including Wikidata (and yes, I added the photo on the English Wikipedia without much thought). AsianStuff03 (talk) 12:49, 15 August 2024 (UTC)

@AsianStuff03 two possible issues here: if the contents of the marker were indeed authored by a regular government employee or not, and also the underlying image of the person being honored. Another image from the uploader shows a more comprehensive view of the contents of the marker, with the final paragraph giving the date 2018 as the year when this marker was inaugurated. You may want to nominate the involved files, in accordance with COM:PRP, as we have no immediate knowledge and evidence that the author was a regular employee (not contractual or hired).

Mayors of Dingle, Iloilo

Hi, Could you please help fix some licenses for pictures of the mayors of en:Dingle, Iloilo? These may be OK with {{PD-Philippines}} and {{PD-1996}}, but at least an approximate date is needed. The author mentioned is also probably wrong. Thanks for your help, Yann (talk) 13:30, 16 August 2024 (UTC)

@Yann hello. Sorry for late reply. I am too hesitant to review majority of the old images of the Philippines, as these may have been published later than their alleged creation dates. I also don't have means to access sufficient resources to review very old PH photos (like reliable archives, publicly-accessible and comprehensive online registry of all registered works before 2021, et cetera). I suggest contacting other Pinoy / PH-based users for old PH photos cases. Regards, JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 05:41, 17 August 2024 (UTC)

We usually assume that old pictures were published at the time of creation unless there is evidence otherwise. But never mind, I have asked on COM:VPC. Yann (talk) 07:48, 17 August 2024 (UTC)
