 * Padang railway station, Batubara Regency


 * Request:
 * Please remove watermark, if possible. -- Vysotsky (talk) 21:49, 2 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Hey,, the Creative Commons license these images use states "If you distribute, publicly display, publicly perform, or publicly digitally perform the Work or any Derivative Works or Collective Works, You must keep intact all copyright notices for the Work..." (my emphasis, CC-BY Section 4c). I thus believe removing the watermarks would violate the license, and be copyright infringement punishable by applicable laws.
 * I advise you to contact and kindly ask them to upload another version without the watermark. 95.89.81.91 (talk) 11:00, 8 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Thanks for your comment, but I beg to differ. Your link is to a DIFFERENT CC-license (CC-BY-NC-2.0). User:Gaudi Renanda has uploaded these images himself under a CC-BY-SA-4.0 license, which allows remixing and transformation. I wrote a short piece for The Signpost about removal of watermarks a month ago. My conclusion there: "if you don’t want your photo to be touched by others, don’t bring them under a CC-BY-license". Vysotsky (talk) 11:22, 8 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Needless to say: I like attribution and love copyright. -- Vysotsky (talk) 11:25, 8 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Hey, I apologise for my mistake, but even the CC-BY-SA license contains similar wording: "If You Share the Licensed Material (including in modified form), You must: retain the following if it is supplied by the Licensor .... a copyright notice". I do not love copyright, not at all, and I agree with your cited conclusion, but I personally would not take the legal risk of going against what I understand is the text of the license. Cheers! --11:30, 8 November 2022 (UTC) 95.89.81.91 (talk) 11:30, 8 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Thanks. After reading this, I still have a different opinion. Vysotsky (talk) 12:08, 8 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the link. In the very conclusion at the bottom, it says in the case of statutory copyright notices (that is the copyright symbol, year of publishing, and name of copyright holder) the "weak" argument for keeping the watermark becomes much stronger. We are talking about exactly this case, as the watermark is a statutory copyright notice in this format. Well, in any case, this is a legally ambiguous situation. I am not personally willing to go to court to test this. I hope you have a good day! 95.89.81.91 (talk) 12:26, 8 November 2022 (UTC)
