Persuant to comments at Commons:Help_desk#How_is_my_photo_shown_as_non-copyright_? that the GODL license is not necessarily applicable to certain images provided by the "Press Information Bureau", these images are not necessarily license compatible with Commons.

Comment Thank you for putting together this huge list of images and categories. However, shouldn't there be an OTRS verification process to confirm that Special:Contributions/2405:201:4004:705A:EC4E:E69C:B272:FD7D is in fact the copyright holder of the image in question and then discuss deletion nominations? // sikander { talk } 🦖 17:34, 30 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@ShakespeareFan00: , I would like to understand your urgency in nominating roughly 70k to 80k files (by my fast rough calcualtion) for deletion based on a single IP's objection over a single file. These files have been at Commons for years now without any issue. They are some of the most important photos published by the Indian Government and are used by 1000's of wikipedia pages. I believe the IP's coneren is wrong and a wrong reading of the laws allowing for open distribution of these public images. (I am going though them to understand it better and will then present my arguments). You could atleast wait till the deletion of that single file was over and other users had presented their arguments. Roller26 (talk) 15:31, 31 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comment The identity of the IP who started this should be verified before thousands of images are deleted based on the word of one single, potentially malicious, individual.--Obi2canibe (talk) 17:12, 3 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose: insufficient justification for mass deletion; individual review is required. TE(æ)A,ea. (talk) 19:40, 12 January 2021 (UTC).[reply]
Strongly Oppose: These 1000s(?) of images are linked and shown throughout important Wikipedia pages, and an individualized analysis is required. You can't lump everyone into one large heap and expect people to ignore it or get overwhelmed by it. Also, such edits should not be proposed by IP users.

Withdrawn per a "snowball clause", all the comments so far have been opposed. ShakespeareFan00 (talk) 22:45, 14 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
