Category:Files from Photogman Shares Flickr stream

[edit]

I have information that these images are the work of voyeur fetish photographer "DST6" who did not give permission for "Photogman Shares" to upload these images to Flickr. I also have information that "DST6" distributed these nude images without the consent of the models, some of whom he specifically misled in creating those images. The Flickr account "Photogman Shares" was purged by Flickr staff, probably for violation of ToS, and thus it is impossible to confirm whether these images actually are licensed as claimed on their Commons pages. The continued presence of these images on Commons is an extraordinarily bad idea because it may constitute copyright violation and/or involuntary pornography, especially since these image filenames contain what may be the actual names of individuals. This request also listed at Commons:Categories for discussion/2021/11/Category:Files from Photogman Shares Flickr stream because I was unfamiliar with how this process works. --172.243.183.182 14:54, 28 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Comment Images should be deleted promptly if any of the major points can be substantiated. If you could privately email some evidence as detailed at COM:VRT that might speed things up. -- Infrogmation of New Orleans (talk) 16:47, 28 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    These are my photos and I have made all my photos public domain so they can be enjoyed by everyone.
    With my permission many people are sharing my photos online.
    I can supply model releases for these photos these are paid models in the photos.
    Leave message here if more information is needed.
    I was aware and approve the photos being on this site. 2600:6C55:4600:A600:685E:B574:4A3:860F 06:33, 30 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    Same thing I advised the anon nominator: email some evidence as detailed at COM:VRT to help settle issues. -- Infrogmation of New Orleans (talk) 17:12, 30 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • There is a lot of vague wording in the deletion argument. I see "probably" and "may constitute" and "impossible to confirm", despite our standard license review in 2013. Odd calling the images "involuntary" since they occur outdoor in public and the models appear to be conspicuously aware they are being photographed. "Photogman Shares was purged by Flickr staff", the account is still there, just no longer public. After Flickr threatened to delete all images over their new 2,000 image limit, many people, including myself, changed the status of their accounts, or even deleted their account in protest. A quick Google search of the names turns up their accounts at porn websites where they appear to be advertising their personal porn webpages. However, if there is a legitimate claim that the photographer is another person, that person needs to come forward and provide evidence. In the past we asked if they could provide more images from the series with confirming metadata. --RAN (talk) 04:16, 29 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
An anonymous user "ha[s] information that" some bad things were done. Not the most credible nomination. Having said that, consent to be photographed (which can be evidenced by posing) is not the same as consent for the photograph to be distributed: people often seem to get these confused.

Kept: - For now. If there is indeed "evidence" of personality rights violations please email COM:VRT. Thank you. --Missvain (talk) 16:42, 24 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
