Our recent interactions

I don’t know if it’s intentional but you certainly look like you’re deliberately following me around to disagree with me. While I assume you’re acting in good faith trailing one user around like this, even if you think they’re wrong, is liable to backfire on you. Dronebogus (talk) 21:31, 30 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Please stay off my talk page. Counterfeit Purses (talk) 21:34, 30 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Just a suggestion but you should probably do the same when it comes to Dronebogus' edits. I'm not going to gate keep or tell you what to do here, but it's pretty clear that have zero experience in the areas that you keep an issue out of and the whole thing is becoming a needless time sink on your end. This isn't Wikipedia where people can file an ANU complaint as a personal axe grinding campaign and the person will just get blocked without evidence or a valid justification. Regardless, if Dronebogus' behavior is really that much of an issue then someone else who's actually an editor with experience in the area will eventually report them for it. @Dronebogus: maybe consider what I said in ANU about it. At the end of the day it's as much to your benefit then anyone else's if you don't add your own uploads to Wikidata or Wikipedia. I trust you have the sense to not do it in instances where it clearly looks like gaming the system. --Adamant1 (talk) 06:53, 31 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I don't need or want your advice. Please stay off my talk page. Counterfeit Purses (talk) 15:05, 31 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion at Commons:Administrators' noticeboard/User problems. Repeated drama farming and trolling.

Adamant1 (talk) 21:52, 3 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

As I'm sure you're aware, these: [1][2] would be seen as unacceptable personal attacks and a breach of COM:CIVIL. Together they're easily blockable but, more than that, they also discredit any standing you have here for any sort of moral ground.

I strongly advise you to just walk away from this. Ignore the threads, let them close how they may. Ignore the other editors altogether. Andy Dingley (talk) 21:49, 4 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

That is good advice. I may follow it. Counterfeit Purses (talk) 23:32, 4 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hey Counterfeit Purses! I noticed your deletion reasoning over on Commons:Deletion requests/File:CCTV video of Brian Thompson being killed.webm and I wanted to give you an explanation as to what exactly the {{PD-automated}} template is for.

The PD-automated template is for any photograph or video that was taken by a camera automatically without any human input. For example, a police or news station traffic camera mounted to a traffic light that cannot move. If that camera is operating 24 hours a day, seven days a week constantly, there is no human input as to what is being captured. A person has to be in control or have some input as to what is being captured for the PD-automated template to be invalid.

For example, the very much pre-positioned camera by Max Olsen before Hurricane Ian does not qualify under it, despite being a 100% non-human operated, pre-positioned camera, since the intention of it was to capture Hurricane Ian's footage.

File:Dash cam footage of the 2024 Lincoln tornado.webm on the other hand, despite being a dashcam, would qualify under PD-automated as the intention of the dashcam (actually even confirmed by the RS media it was published by) was for insurance purposes for a company driver. I.e., the dash cam was for potential car insurance fraud incidences. It was not pre-positioned to capture a tornado.

The PD-automated is when it involved a non-human operated camera where what was captured was not directly intended. Non-moving CCTV is always PD-automated since anything that happens (tornado, earthquake, robbery) is not the "human intended" capture for it. You might think a store CCTV would be intended to catch robbers and that would be correct. However, that specific robbery was not the intention. That is why Max Olsen's camera doesn't qualify but the dashcam for the Lincoln tornado would. Olsen placed it specifically for the storm surge so the intention was to capture exactly what was captured. Having intention behind the camera is also why timelapses or cameras left to take a photo on a timer are not PD-automated.

Hopefully this explanation helped. The key components to look for in order is: (1) Was the camera operated by a human at all? (2) Was the intention of the unoperated camera to capture what was captured? If both of those are "No", then there is a very likely chance it qualifies under the PD-automated template. If you have any questions regarding the template, feel free to ask me here or on my talk page! Cheers! WeatherWriter (talk) 16:23, 27 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@WeatherWriter I appreciate you taking the time to leave the note, but as I said in the DR, we have no indication that the camera was not operated by a human operator. Counterfeit Purses (talk) 16:34, 27 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Counterfeit Purses I just dropped this NPR news article in the DR request which confirms it was "a surveillance camera", even showing a photo of the exact camera. It is a very clear closed-circuit television (CCTV) camera. As a secondary note, I would comment that you are correct that COM:ONUS state it is on the uploader to provide proof. However, there is no evidence shown to say that exact CCTV camera (photographed in the NPR article above) was human operated & the video shows no evidence of human operation. PD-automated is the odd template since, even as the template states, PD-automated itself has never been tried in a U.S. court, so no legal precedents exist. For that reason, it is more or less the responsibility of both the uploader (during the upload phase to show no human input was given) and in the DR, it is your responsibility to prove there was human input. PD-automated is, in reality, the only template partially opposite COM:ONUS, given the shear fact there actually is no legal stance that exists for it whatsoever.

Come on, come on.

Stop wasting everyone's time including your own. Just nominate every image I have uploaded for deletion. Kieronoldham (talk) 06:43, 4 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Kieronoldham I am glad to see that Yann has nominated some of the images. Maybe now you will see that this is not personal. Counterfeit Purses (talk) 15:54, 4 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Counterfeit Purses, can I ask you to hold off on further nominations of AP materials in newspapers that lacked notice (in the period when that was required) until we get some solid consensus from COM:VP/C#Copyright status for contents of U.S. newspapers? There is no point to having a ton of separate DRs that are all going to hinge on the same disputed issue. Also Pinging @Yann on that. - Jmabel ! talk 22:49, 5 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Jmabel Of course. The last couple of things I nominated from Kieronoldham have been simple cases where there is a copyright notice despite the public domain claim (and one unrelated file that I came across as I continue to work my way through CCTV images). Like you, I'm waiting to see what happens with the news agency images. Counterfeit Purses (talk) 23:05, 5 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
