2022 Winter Olympics opening Ceremony

I Was Trying to make a reference for the article but why do you redirect for because it is too soon. 98.186.54.177 (talk) 20:56, 2 August 2021 (UTC)

Exactly: It's too soon. If you have sources for information to that level of detail, you need to cite it now. —C.Fred (talk) 20:58, 2 August 2021 (UTC)

What Sources for imformation should i find 98.186.54.177 (talk) 21:04, 2 August 2021 (UTC)

So, are you saying that you don't have sources? Where have you been getting the information you've tried to put in the article? —C.Fred (talk) 21:22, 2 August 2021 (UTC)

Kelvin Grove State College

Dear C.Fred, sorry I am a new user and did not realise I had to create a page first. For the time being, could you help me add the new alumnus entry of Sondre Solstad? https://en.wikipedia.org/search/?title=Kelvin_Grove_State_College&oldid=1038175681 I am not Sondre Solstad, but I have obtained his permission. He appears on old school yearbooks that are not digital. Thank you! Sorry for the trouble. — Preceding unsigned comment added by KGSC Historian (talk • contribs) 03:02, 11 Aug 2021 (UTC)

@KGSC Historian: Since Sondre Solstad is not notable enough to have an article, he may not be added to a list of notable alumni. —C.Fred (talk) 03:07, 11 August 2021 (UTC)

LEK Reports images are free and are in the Public domain

Hello there i am very happy that you are not a bot, because I am able to share views on why the Images I upload are free. So all the files which I uploaded are free and are in the public domain just because of this one reason their all published by state owned media or government ministries to the public example: I uploaded an image file that's file is this: PrimeMinisterofEthiopiaOffice.jpg, this file of course is the seal and logo of the office of the prime minister of Ethiopia, you could see this same logo on the twitter verified page of the Office of the Prime Minister of Ethiopia here's the link: https://twitter.com/PMEthiopia/photo, So now we have established this image to be a logo of a government entity. And now of course we known that most state entitles with logos are available to the public domain. And also the Information Network and Security Agency is a government entity which has a seal and logo which is this file which you marked as copyrighted, file name: INSA Seal.jpg, the official verified page of this government entity has a logo that is of the file I uploaded proof is this link: https://www.facebook.com/INSA.ETHIOPIA/posts/3867224850043993, the link shows you a verified page of the Name of Information Network Security Agency that has a logo of a file marked copyrighted. This agency being a government agency has a logo and because being a government entity it's photos released to the public are public domain de-facto. I have other with the same legal statues. So because of these reasons I would hope that you remove the Warning sign which allows deletion to public domain photos. Thank you very much i am helping this community by giving images of entities, all doing it under the guidelines and under the law. — Preceding unsigned comment added by LEKReports (talk • contribs) 03:03, 15 Aug 2021 (UTC)

@LEKReports: How do you interpret that the images are free or in the public domain? The most damning one was the image you took from the prime minister's office, a website which notes an all-rights-reserved license. The burden is on you to conclusive prove that the images are free; unless you are the owner of the image, you cannot conclude that just because the images are on a publicly-accessible website, that anybody who gets the image may use it commercially. —C.Fred (talk) 03:11, 15 August 2021 (UTC)

According to this source: quota on quote: "Seals and devices of the Federal Government, Departments, Bureaus, and Independent Agencies are not in the public domain, and cannot be used for other than official business without specific authorization of the agency involved." link to source: https://www.hhs.gov/web/policies-and-standards/web-policies/logo-contractors/index.html#:~:text=%22Seals%20and%20devices%20of%20the%20Federal%20Government%2C%20Departments%2C,Committee%20on%20Printing%2C%20United%20States%20Congress%3B%20emphasis%20added%5D. There are many Misplaced Pages commons images depicting Government department logos. Example file name: Seal of the Central Intelligence Agency.svg, and even the article says this quote on quote: This image shows a flag, a coat of arms, a seal or some other official insignia. The use of such symbols is restricted in many countries. These restrictions are independent of the copyright status. Link to the reading here: https://en.wikipedia.org/Central_Intelligence_Agency#/media/File:Seal_of_the_Central_Intelligence_Agency.svg, Government department seals are in the public domain. You of course can't put a CIA tag on you clothe but in the internet and copyright law it is acceptable. I wanted to add one thing to this: you stated that the most damning one was the image i took from the prime minister's office, and you said that all rights reserved. That's not how it works a sentence could be used from the website some things in this world are de-facto public domain images, they are seen in government departments you restricting the use of this image on this 💕 is not good in my point of view. The department of defense quote on quote said this about the logo of the DOD, Public domain from a copyright standpoint source: https://en.wikipedia.org/United_States_Department_of_Defense#/media/File:United_States_Department_of_Defense_Seal.svg on permissions detail. Government logos are in the public domain some restrictions may apply but generally they are allowed use in the internet. If you aren't convinced I may email the Office of the Prime Minister to use their image that is already in the public domain to write in Misplaced Pages. Could you revert my image license i see it wat put in the a wrong category but still its in the public domain but not for advertisements. Thanks.

@LEKReports: Unless you're asserting that the Ethiopian government is under the control of the United States, that citation you just gave does not apply. —C.Fred (talk) 03:39, 15 August 2021 (UTC)

All that being said, the seal of the OPM is an identifying logo, so its use is permissible under a claim of fair use. I have uploaded a new version of the image at File:Seal of the Ethiopian Office of the Prime Minister.jpg and made the necessary disclosures. —C.Fred (talk) 03:45, 15 August 2021 (UTC)

LEK Reports and my conflict

Hello there do not get worried because the LEK Reports and i are managed by the same person. You could confirm this by leaving a message to the LEK Reports and it will be confirmed. The LEK uses many accounts and thus confusion may arise. Thank you for your concern. — Preceding unsigned comment added by TRUTHINCommons (talk • contribs) 21:46, 19 Aug 2021 (UTC)

@TRUTHINCommons: Please review WP:Sockpuppetry and make sure you comply with the requirements. In most cases, one person should only use one account. —C.Fred (talk) 02:41, 20 August 2021 (UTC)
