Esta lista, llamada "fuentes de mal" contenido, que inicialmente aparece como utilizable en Commons, pero luego de un revision son inutilizables o contradictorias. Los archivos de estas fuente debería ser marcados con {{subst:nld}} ("no license"), o {{subst:npd}} ("no permission") templates. Al hacer esto, dichos archivos son ubicados en la subcategoría adecuada:Category:Unknown.

Lista de fuentes malas

Alchetron combina artículos de Wikipedia con imágenes de internet, usualmente no-libres y frecuentemente mal identificadas. Existe un aviso: "CC POR-SA", en el fondo de cada página, pero esto refiere sólo al texto de Wikipedia, no a las imágenes. Seleccionando una imagen en el sitio proporciona una "fuente" de origen en la forma de un "enlace de Página" de la visita, el cual es de hecho un enlace profundo al archivo de la imagen.

En capturas de pantalla se establece {{Cc-por-sa-3.0-nl}}, para aquellos qué no sean dueños del copyright.

FotW Es política de copyright contiene varias restricciones inaceptables:
...use el material solo para propósitos que no sean comerciales ni políticos
"si usted distribuye nuestros materiales por algún medio que no sea el internet (p. ej., discos flexibles o CD-ROM) no puede venderlos"

Hay que ponerse un límite del uso a 5% al máximo de todas las imágenes u el contenido del sitio del web.

  • no alteras de ninguna manera las imágenes o el contenido del texto
Do not upload any images from this site, unless you provide a very good reason (example)
At first sight uploading on Commons seems to be OK: the sites mention "Free license", "Attribution is required", "allowed for use on commercial and personal projects, for an unlimited number of times and without any time limits, anywhere of the world". But that is misleading. It turns out that in the Terms of use the terms "commercial" and "use" are very narrowly defined, making this not OK for Commons. See the Village pump discussions Is pngrepo.com credible and Freepik images.

The usage conditions [1] are restrictive:
  • The images must not be provided for download (elsewhere) in the Internet. (original German: "Die Bilder dürfen nicht im Internet zum Download angeboten werden.")
  • The images must not be included in (other) collections of images. (German: "Die Bilder dürfen nicht in Bildersammlungen einverleibt werden.")
Estos son solo dos de los más claros indicios de que este sitio es una fuente inutilizable.

While they claim to be licensing their images under the Creative Commons Attribution license, the page that links to it adds several more restrictions, namely,
The use of these images for advertising, marketing, or any other commercial purposes is prohibited. These images can be cropped, but may not be altered in any other way, and each should bear the credit line "© GM Corp."
Despite the text of the license they linked to from their licensing page, their intent is quite clearly to allow a non-commercial, no-derivatives attribution license, which is not acceptable on the Commons. Whether linking to the CC BY license would invalidate these stated restrictions is a finer legal point than we are qualified to deal with; furthermore, even if this would lean in our favor, it is also good form to respect the intent of copyright holders, rather than try to catch them out on legal technicalities like this.
(On a related note, there are GM media pages such as this Chevrolet Austria video page which mentions "© Creative Commons Attribution 3.0" but which instead links to the CC BY-NC 3.0 license.)

While the site ( http://imfdb.org ) clearly has an overall wiki-inspired design and mechanics that leads many to believe it conforms to the same GFDL or CC BY-SA or free content licensing as Commons, that is NOT the case in reality. The problem is twofold:
  1. The photos taken by the site's admin (MPM2008) are certainly not freely licensed, and this author is known to go to great length to protect his copyrights. Also, it should be noted that not all of his photos carry any watermark and/or any copyright notice. These are certainly not suitable for Commons.
  2. On the other hand, the site's admins are very lax concerning other people's copyrights-while some files ARE really PD or freely licensed, most (excluding MPM2008's works) are grabbed from random sources (like press images or similar) and in most cases WITHOUT any attribution. It is also a common practice there to overwrite PD or freely licensed files with NON-free files of larger resolution while leaving the former file's attribution notice intact, causing users to believe the new file is also free, when in fact that is not the case...
Either way, these files seem 100% unsuitable for uploading here.

La licencia de este sitio prohíbe la venta, concesión de licencias, sublicencias, alquiler, transferencia o distribución de imágenes "sin alteraciones". Pero las imágenes modificadas son gratuitas (incluido el uso con fines comerciales y el uso sin atribuir al autor original). Sin embargo, no hay información, si la licencia es revocable.

Mynewsdesk.com

  • Mynewsdesk.com is a site for marketers and promotional uploaders. Its default license is a Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike license, but this is not adequately understood by their uploaders, who frequently post images for which they do not own the rights to release under the Creative Commons license. Consensus is to avoid using the site.

Per Commons:Deletion requests/Incorrect PD Netherlands (government works), commercial usage of the images at this site is not allowed. Therefore, though they may seem to be allowable here as government work, they do not fall within Commons scope per COM:SCOPE: Non-allowable licence terms.

"A community of graphic artists creating and sharing free raw image files!" - that's the slogan. The website is intended as non-commercial but they also allow for CC BY licensing. Regrettably they take their slogan's "creating" with a grain of salt. For example, Vince-Carter-Magic-PSD32033 (and all images shown as related images) are taken from elsewhere, published on other websites. The EXIF of this image states "Copyright Notice: Copyright 2009 NBAE (Photo by Fernando Medina/NBAE via Getty Images)". linksearch
Photos and videos on Pexels are mostly published under the Pexels Licence which applies non-commercial (NC) restrictions. It also states "Don't redistribute or sell the photos and videos on other stock photo or wallpaper platforms". Therefore Pexels media are ineligible for use on Commons. The Pexels Terms of Service do state that some images were published under a {{Cc-0}} licence — such images would be allowed on Commons, but apparently this only applied to images that were published on Pexels prior to 4 July 2018.

Appears to consist mostly of uploads by people who do not have the authority to license the copyrights in them, or release the content into the public domain. The website also does not retain good sourcing metadata. Clause 6.1 of the Terms of Use Agreement (last reviewed on 13 June 2011) allows uploaders to mark their files as private or to delete them, which is declared to have the effect of terminating the license for reuse of the files by other people.

As with fotodatenbank.com, the usage conditions [2] are restrictive:
  • Images can be used (...) excluding collections of images or similar where PixelQuelle.de images can be downloaded or bought. (original: (...) "Ausgeschlossen hiervon sind Bilddatenbanken, Bildkataloge oder ähnliche, bei denen PixelQuelle.de Fotos zum Download oder Verkauf angeboten werden.")
They use (for their own work) the CC BY-NC-ND licence (neither commercial use nor derivative works), which is not compatible with Wikimedia Commons.
Skyscrapercity (sometimes referred to as SSC) is a forum to which users upload images (often original content, sometimes copyright violations from Flickr etc). No free licensing is required for uploads, so unless compatible licensing is explicitly declared in the forum, or the image is public domain due to age, a VRT email from the copyright holder is required.

Images sourced from Stock.xchng (sxc.hu) are not allowed on Wikimedia Commons, unless they are explicitly licensed under a free license. Preferably those permissions are recorded in VRTS. All Stock.xchng image that have not been independently released under a free license are subject to speedy deletion since July 1, 2007.

The site claims images are in the PD, even though they are copyrighted. See also Commons:Deletion requests/File:773ER Pakistan.jpg.

El sitio afirma que se puede utilizar cualquiera de sus imágenes (que llevan marca de agua) siempre que se haga referencia a su sitio.[6] Tampoco permite explícitamente la libre modificación de la imagen, lo que supuestamente significa que nadie puede quitar su marca de agua. El punto clave es que no se puede determinar que ninguna de las imágenes alojadas en World Stadiums esté libre de derechos de autor. No citan a los autores de las imágenes. La mayoría de sus fotos son violaciones de los derechos de autor (tomadas de foros, sitios oficiales, escaneados de revistas y periódicos, etc.): copias recortadas y redimensionadas de imágenes protegidas por derechos de autor. Otras son versiones redimensionadas de imágenes con licencia Creative Commons ShareAlike, pero World Stadiums no atribuye a los licenciantes como exige la licencia.
