Cancellazione Foto
Buongiorno, per un mio errore ho caricato delle immagini già caricate in precedenza il loro ID è questo (wiki-ID: 01B0430005). Come posso cancellarle?

- Buongiorno Talete1, gli amministratori (come me) possono cancellarli per voi. Quali sono i nomi dei file? (courtesy ping @Dario Crespi (WMIT)) Ciell (talk) 06:54, 10 September 2024 (UTC)

Freedom of panorama
Hello, I hope you are all well.
I hope the organizing team can answer this question that has been confusing me a lot. If we review this page, we will find that some countries completely prohibit publishing photos of their public places on Commons (mostly because of the type of license). This means that if I publish photos of monuments in my country Morocco on Wikimedia Commons, I will have committed a violation. Is this true ? (Note: The administrators have previously deleted photos I published for the same reason)
Thank you all Mounir Neddi (talk) 15:21, 18 September 2024 (UTC)
- Hi @Mounir Neddi,
- Limited Freedom of Panorama is indeed a problem in many countries. Every country participating in WLM has a work around though, and in the case of Morocco the images that are eligible for WLM (and also, a good rule of thumb for images of building in Morocco in general) is the exemption for buildings who's exteriors have gone into the public domain because of their age. So, no to the new Hassan 2 mosque from Casablanca (as I myself had to learn the hard way a few years back!), and yes to cities like Aït Ben Haddou. The national team of WLM Morocco will have more details for you, so pinging @Abdeaitali & Rachidourkia for attention. Ciell (talk) 16:35, 18 September 2024 (UTC)
