"All rights aquired"
[edit]Hi, how do you see yourself maintaining copyright on the two maps you uploaded on 2023-10-26? Please note that Commons doesn't host copyrighted material: Commons contents are usually CC-licensed or Public Domain (PD). As far as I can see, you are one of the editors-in-chief to the book you name as the source for the map; so by uploading your files under CC-BY-SA-license, you agree to not claim any copyrights beyond name attribution (the "BY"). Additionally, the original map is PD-old (due to its age), which is another reason why copyright does not apply. So, I just wanted to remind you, that your CC-BY-SA license only reserves some rights, while All rights acquired makes no sense here. I also suggest that you could name the original authors of the map, or the institution where the map was from originally. :-) Best regards, --Enyavar (talk) 14:44, 27 October 2023 (UTC)
- Dear Enyavar (talk), you are right. Thank you for your feedback and committment. Super!
- Just for explanation: The thing is that I aquired the authors rights to the old map respectively made the pictures myself and used them in the Encyclopedia. I still have all rights to my contributions to the Encyclopedia. I am fine with them being CC-licensed, that's why precisely I uploaded them for being used by an even broade public for research matters.
- As the maps are historic, there is no mention of the authors.
- Best regards
