I'm not sure why the file has been marked for deletion. I've uploaded hundreds of photographs of contemporary sculptures in a similar manner. Not sure I know how to remedy. ---Another Believer (Talk) 23:59, 27 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I read WP:FREER, which was linked, and it says "We would use a photograph where the photographer has licensed their photograph under a free license, retaining the copyright of the derivative work, instead of a photograph that has non-free licenses for both the photograph and work of art." That is exactly the procedure Another Believer has followed here. As such, I have removed the template. Anyone who wants to re-add the template should explain their rationale here and explain how to obtain a more freely-licensed photograph. – Jonesey95 (talk) 02:04, 28 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Tag restored. Files like this need two copyright tags, but the uploader has only provided one copyright tag. Although the fair use rationale states that the file is available under "a free license" or "is in the public domain", it is not possible to tell which free licence the uploader has chosen, so it is not possible to comply with the terms of that licence. Failure to disclose which licence it is means that the licence counts as unfree. --Stefan2 (talk) 15:11, 28 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I don't know what to do. I am fine with whatever default license is normally added for fair use uploads of contemporary sculptures. I really wish this weren't so difficult (that is not directed at anyone in particular... just general frustration with image policies). ---Another Believer (Talk) 16:45, 28 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
You should add {{Photo of art|1=some free licence (remember to specify which one)|3={{Non-free 3D art}}}}. --Stefan2 (talk) 17:41, 28 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I don't know what to add as parameter 1. ---Another Believer (Talk) 17:51, 28 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Any free copyright tag of your choice. See WP:ICTIC for some examples. --Stefan2 (talk) 18:02, 28 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Like so? ---Another Believer (Talk) 18:03, 28 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Now it's fine. --Stefan2 (talk) 18:10, 28 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for your help. ---Another Believer (Talk) 20:35, 28 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
