 * If this is an Indian naval crest, then I'm querying why it's considered own work by the uploader. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 07:18, 12 May 2015 (UTC)

 * Possible copyright violation with an invalid public domain rationale. The license tag states it is in the public domain because it is an "official item legally exempt from copyright in its country of origin".  The high school is in the United States, where works of the federal government are in the public domain but works of state/local governments and schools are not necessarily.  Use of this image online is on event pages like this, not on the school's website, so the source is unclear. Nick—Contact/Contribs 16:28, 12 May 2015 (UTC)


 * Please remove this discussion from this page, it was there because after I uploaded the file I attempted to edit the inbox-like section to make it more normal by not writing the name of the high school twice both in "source" and in "author" which are the same thing, and when I did this it suddenly added a template alleging that it must be some copyrighted picture just because one wishes to have it displayed reasonably (rather then listing "Source" and "Author", the name and description of the file several times in a row). So when the template came up it would have listed this here which is stupid. Something should be done about this automatic listings based on edits, and instead should only be done if the file is originally uploaded without the information.                     ~Rayvn  16:38, 12 May 2015 (UTC)


 * So actually it looks like I uploaded a different image then intended, and therefore do not care if you delete it, however, it makes no sense to do so, since this is the picture taken or used by the school itself, unless there is a rule/policy about deleting any file that is not currently used in any article. (You can see an almost-exactly-the-same picture, indicating that these were taken at the same time, that is still hosted on the school's servers, which fact is shown to you by Google, although some script or something make sit not-visible on the website.)  In fact it may actually make sense to delete it since the Wikipedia server for some reason decided to attach the entire town to the file's actual name rather then description, and there appears to be no way to correct a file's title.


 * Wikipedia's file uploading form is very unclear and should be vastly simplified, not insert overly-strange templates/infoboxes, and should require far less reading. It took nearly 15 minutes just to upload a file!                     ~Rayvn  16:50, 12 May 2015 (UTC)


 * What needs to be listed under "source" is the exact location (website, etc) you obtained the image and "author" needs to list the person or organization who actually took the photograph and, therefore, owns the copyright to it. We then need to see proof that the person or organization has agreed to release the image into the public domain, as you claim it is, because your rationale for why it is in the public domain does not appear to be legally valid. If you want the image deleted, as your comments above suggest you might, you can tag the page with  and remove the image from any articles its in. --Nick—Contact/Contribs 17:05, 12 May 2015 (UTC)


 * Images coming from the school itself are already in the public (free) domain!                    ~Rayvn  19:11, 12 May 2015 (UTC)


 * That's actually a common misconception. An image being posted publicly is different from an image being in the public domain. You don't give up your rights to something you've created by publishing it. Most things you find on the Internet are still copyrighted, or presumed copyrighted unless released. (ESkog)(Talk) 19:49, 12 May 2015 (UTC)


 * You're wrong because what you are saying is a "common misconception" is not a misconception that I used or referred to. If you post something on your blog then that is not the public domain, it's your blog.  If you publish it, then you just published it.  I didn't say anything about either of these two ideas.  What I said is that "Images coming from the school itself" are already public.                      ~Rayvn  20:25, 12 May 2015 (UTC)

 * listed source is "theft on the Internet" so clearly not PD-self. Taking here instead of speedying as the image depicts a person who lived from 1901-1929, so it may be PD if we can ascertain an actual source. (ESkog)(Talk) 19:54, 12 May 2015 (UTC)

 * Not own work at all. Swedish passports are created by the Swedish government, not by random Wikipedia uploaders. Missing permission from the Swedish government employee who made this passport artwork. Stefan2 (talk) 23:03, 12 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Stefan2 just told me that "pages with any form of image" are not to be uploaded. What about this one though? It contains no unique info nor any image of me so why would having it on Wikipedia pose a risk? André Devecserii (talk) 22:53, 15 May 2015 (UTC)
 * This page contains an image of buildings and may therefore not be uploaded to Wikipedia. --Stefan2 (talk) 08:04, 16 May 2015 (UTC)

 * Not own work at all. Swedish passports are created by the Swedish government, not by random Wikipedia uploaders. For example, the photograph is typically taken by the policeman who receives the passport application from the applicant. Permission is needed from this policeman and from the person who created the security artwork in the background. Stefan2 (talk) 23:05, 12 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Seriously? O_o I'm not experienced with Wikipedia and thought I'd be free to upload my own passport. So you mean I should ask the police for permission?
 * Please delete asap, the swedish authorties will never allow it to be a free image, neither the photo nor the imsage of the passport itself~(it would open up for all type of forgeries).Yger (talk) 06:58, 15 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Deleted this image from the articles and replaced it with the image of "Sven Specimen's" passport. Admins, feel free to delete this image altogether from Wikipedia. André Devecserii (talk) 22:53, 15 May 2015 (UTC)
