Hi there,
Can you send me the link for where CERN/LNGS have released this image into the public domain please? It's not attached to the image and my experience with CERN is that they don't allow any images to be released in this way, though I can't say for LNGS. Cheers Khukri 20:55, 28 September 2011 (UTC)
You seem to have misunderstood the text on the ArXiv license page. Articles submit to the arxiv are released under one of three possible licenses. These can be public domain, or creative commons, but by far the most common is that the work is released under a minimal license granting arxiv the right to redistribute the article and not much else. This is the default option when submitting articles, and also the safest for the authors with respect to getting the article published in a top journal. Unless specific proof otherwise is given, it is likely the OPERA paper was released under this minimal license. In that case, the images from that paper are not free to use on wikipedia.TR 08:06, 30 September 2011 (UTC)
Hi Timothy & Cheers,
I've received a reply to the email I sent to the PDF maker Antonio Ereditato, the following message text is what he wrote:
"No problem...this is public material.
Thanks,
Antonio

Hi there, very well done. You just need to follow the instructions here and your done. Thanks for taking the effort to follow up on this, Wikipedia is certainly improved by having these images on it. Kind regards Khukri 16:08, 2 October 2011 (UTC)
Hi Cheers, I received a reply to the email I sent to the CERN Press Office approximately 4.5 hours ago, the following message text is what they wrote:

Hi CERN,
Some images included in paper Measurement of the neutrino velocity with the OPERA detector in the CNGS beam were uploaded onto Wikipedia, but I don’t know whether such images are copyrighted or not. The question I would ask is, what’s the license the paper uses ? Could such images be distributed on Wikipedia ?
Paper id: 1109.4897 (PDF)
URL: http://arxiv.org/abs/1109.4897 (Summary page)
Thanks,
visuall"

Hey, this is as I originally thought, the CERN copyright rules are incompatible with Wikipedia's free licencing, but as you have the authors agreement that it is released into the public domain you should be on solid ground. Cheers Khukri 13:44, 3 October 2011 (UTC)
Hi Cheers, I received OTRS's response just now, the following message text is what they wrote:
Dear visuall,
For images to be hosted on Wikimedia Commons, they require the copyright holder to provide a specific release under a suitably free license, which allows anyone to use them for any purpose, including commercial usage and derivative works (subject to applicable laws). If this can be supplied, then the content may be hosted on Wikimedia Commons and then used on Wikipedia. It's not quite clear if the response means the material is available for public consumption or whether it's actually supposed to mean "public domain" release with no copyright on the material.
Thank you for your understanding!
Yours sincerely, Adrignola

Hi Cheers, I've added tag ((OTRS received|id=2011100210007217)) to both the files. Thanks, Visuall (talk) 16:10, 3 October 2011 (UTC)
Hi Adrignola, I've sent a new email to the paper's author Antonio Ereditato. This is the second time I bother the author with such a copyright question, I'm not sure whether a reply could be received. Thanks, visuall (talk) 08:19, 16 October 2011 (UTC)
Hi Adrignola, Just as my supposition, I've received no reply to the second email I sent to the paper's author Antonio Ereditato as of this time. If you really consider that such statement as "No problem...this is public material." is not clear enough, then yes, you could delete such images ASAP. Thanks, visuall (talk) 16:11, 21 October 2011 (UTC)
Hi Cheers & Carl & Timothy & Túrelio & Adrignola & Stradivarius, I've re-uploaded both the images to enwiki, under Non-free with permission license. Thanks, visuall (talk) 21:49, 6 December 2011 (UTC)
Hi Carl & Carnildo, I've added "di-replaceable fair use disputed" tag to both the images. Thanks, visuall (talk) 11:31, 7 December 2011 (UTC)

An editor has asked for a discussion to address the redirect Goog. Since you had some involvement with the Goog redirect, you might want to participate in the redirect discussion if you have not already done so. Steel1943 (talk) 19:47, 23 November 2016 (UTC)
