Items are licensed as public domain and sourced to the Animal Liberation Front. However, previous OTRS checks[1][2][3] have shown that this permission originally applied only to a few images, and furthermore the source of this permission was a website called "No Compromise". The front page of this website states, in part, "The information herein is solely intended for entertainment, educational, research, academic, or other lawful purposes and is from sources independent of No Compromise." So it appears they did not possess the legal right to grant a license to OTRS.

    • I'm looking at the OTRS ticket now. The ticket contains a general statement of permission. Point #1: I do not know what the relationship is between No Compromise and ALF, but from googling, I'm assuming that they either are the same organization or a lot of the same people work for both organizations. At [4], Adringola characterized the permission as "someone from http://nocompromise.org/ stating that all ALF images are public domain". Point #2: I will use User:Chrislk02's characterization of that statement: "The ticket does state in a generalization that all images are in the public domain". The six images actually listed in the ticket are NOT mentioned at all by the person who granted the permission, but, rather, by the Wikipedia user who forwarded the email. There is no reason whatsoever to believe, based on this ticket, that the six images explicitly mentioned are any more nor less public domain than any others. My conclusion: such a generic statement of permission doesn't come close to what we would like to see. We need to see (1) a specific statement of authorship and (2) a specific statement of permission. Even if we could say we have #2, we certainly don't have #1. --B (talk) 15:08, 26 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
