- Comment
If it's not a fake, it's a letter sent to the Prime Minister Office to someone, the uploader I guess. So, it's a public document. What about public documents in England? What's their copyright status? Furthermore, a simple thanksgiving standard letter sent by a secretary cannot claims authorship.--Giorgiomonteforti (talk) 16:56, 19 May 2010 (UTC) - Comment I reformulate, after a review to the Crown Copyright. And I have a question. Does the Copyright Crown applies even to official letters sent to private institutions or private people? In fact there are many classes of documents, according to the queen's will, and all of them have different copyright rules to be applied. Is this letter entering in a restrictive category? It cannot be considered as a public award? The receiver it's entitled to publish it or to made it public? Just asking for better understanding. --Giorgiomonteforti (talk) 17:06, 19 May 2010 (UTC)
Comment - no idea of crown copyrights for these short texts - but the use of the file is very strange : in an article that consists to 90 percent of advertising images. This is by far not a letter of "appreciation" , but merely politeness. Very strange Cholo Aleman (talk) 19:55, 19 May 2010 (UTC)
- Comment I agree with you, Cholo. It's just a routine polite letter. Anyway, they succeeded to reach Downing Street. It's something. But, is it truly copyrighted? The Queen has such restrictive enforcements? I won't remain surprised, anyway. --Giorgiomonteforti (talk) 02:35, 20 May 2010 (UTC)
- Comment I asserted above that this has a Crown Copyright. As my colleagues above have noted, that may have been premature without further research. Crown Copyright is on a "everything is subject to copyright except" basis. A review of the list of exceptions suggests that my assertion was correct. Jim . . . . Jameslwoodward (talk to me) 13:10, 26 May 2010 (UTC)

Taken in Moscow, but not PD in Russia. sугсго 14:32, 19 May 2010 (UTC)
- The file is PD in the Ukraine, a successor state of the Soviet Union. ("This file is a Ukrainian or Soviet work and it is presently in the public domain in Ukraine [...]: It was published before January 1, 1951, and the creator (if known) died before that date. (This is the effect of the retroactive Ukrainian copyright law of 1993 and the copyright from 50 to 70 years in 2001.)). This file is definitely Soviet work, so it is PD. --Kl833x9 (talk) 15:41, 19 May 2010 (UTC)
- Delete If the photographer is Ukrainian or the photograph was taken in the Ukraine, I can see why this PD tag would be used. However, there is no evidence that either exists. Plus, the photo was taken in Moscow, so the source country will be the Russian Federation and this is not out of copyright there. User:Zscout370 (Return fire) 23:43, 19 May 2010 (UTC)
- Keep The photographer was a Soviet photographer. The text of the copyright notice does not require that the photographer has to be a "Ukrainian", for example a soviet citizen registered in the Ukrainian SSR, if this photo has been taken before 1991. It also does not require that the image has to be taken in the area of the present Ukrainian state. The photo has been taken under Soviet jurisdiction and the present Ukrainian State has been a part of the Soviet Union in 1944. The Ukraine is like the Russian Federation a successor state of the Soviet Union, so it is feasible to apply the Ukrainian copyright on this photo. --Kl833x9 (talk) 07:12, 20 May 2010 (UTC)
- Delete - Since when is Moscow in the Ukraine? Moreover, there's no evidence the photo actually is PD in the Ukraine; where's the date of publication? Where's the date of the author's death? Without either of those it cannot be established when the image will enter PD in the Ukraine. More importantly, the image is still copyrighted in the US, which is where our servers are located. Parsecboy (talk) 16:35, 10 July 2010 (UTC)
- Once again: The Ukraine was part of the soviet union in 1944, so the unkrainian copyright includes every soviet work until 1991. The photo has been published for the first time in the Iswestia on 18th July 1944. The photographer is unknown. --Kl833x9 (talk) 17:27, 11 July 2010 (UTC) 17:26, 11 July 2010 (UTC)
- Assuming, for the sake of argument, that you are correct about the status in the Ukraine, how exactly does that make the image public domain in the United States? You have not addressed that crucial detail, and whether this image remains on Commons or has to be moved to the Ukrainian Wiki depends on whether you or anyone else can prove that this image is PD in the United States. Parsecboy (talk) 02:32, 12 July 2010 (UTC)
- In addition, Isvestia is located in St. Petersburg, so the location of publication would be Russia. Ukrainian copyright is therefore irrelevant. Parsecboy (talk) 11:18, 12 July 2010 (UTC)
- There is no possibility to differ between ukrainian and russian copyright in the period from 1919 until 1991.
The russian federation and the ukraine are both sucessor states of the soviet union. And both copyrights are including the whole soviet intellectual property. Therefore it is feasible to apply both copyright terms on soviet work no matter where this work has been created and no matter if the Soviet citizen was an Ukrainian or a Russian .
A more demonstrative example for this: Sergey Pavlovich Korolyov has been born and educated in the Ukraine (Ukrainian SSR exactly) and is therefore an Ukrainian. He constructed as chief of the OKB-1 nearly every soviet rocket vehicle from 1946 until 1966. Are these rockets (The Soyus is still used recently) now Ukrainian or Russian technology ? No, they are Soviet technology, therefore both states have the possibility (but not ability) to use Korolyovs inventions. --Kl833x9 (talk) 20:02, 12 July 2010 (UTC) - In addition: The Isvestia was/is located in (St. Petersburg/Petrograd/Leningrad ->three names for the same city) until 1918 and from 1991 until now. From 1918 until 1991 it was located in Moskow. See Izvestia --Kl833x9 (talk) 20:02, 12 July 2010 (UTC)
- Second addition: The copyright of the United States is by definition irrelevant due to the fact that we have to apply Russian or Ukrainian copyright on this Soviet work. --Kl833x9 (talk) 20:02, 12 July 2010 (UTC)
- It is relevant. Under our licensing policies, images must be public domain in the USA and their home country in order to it be hosted here under the public domain. User:Zscout370 (Return fire) 20:13, 12 July 2010 (UTC)
- Lets see (after [2]):
a) It is a work of a foreigner or a US citizen abroad.
b) The period is from 1923 through 1977.
c) The image has been published without compliance with US formalities, and was in the public domain in its source country as of 1 January 1996: The russian federation has joined the Berne Treaty on March 13, 1995, so the 1 January 1996 is relevant. In 1996 the image was public domain in the Russian Federation. Cite of the old russian copyright tag: It was published before January 1, 1954, and the creator (if known) died before that date (For veterans of the Great Patriotic War, the critical date is January 1, 1950). The russian copyright changed in 2008, but this is not relevant. The Ukraine has joined the Berne Treaty in 1996. It was also public domain the Ukraine, because 'it was published before January 1, 1951, and the creator (if known) died before that date. (This is the effect of the retroactive Ukrainian copyright law of 1993 and the copyright from 50 to 70 years in 2001.)
So as far as I see is the image after the US copright law in public domain.--Kl833x9 (talk) 20:57, 12 July 2010 (UTC)- You're wrong; the 2008 Russian copyright law is the one that matters. This photograph is apparently from the Russian State Archives, which means the Russian copyright law is the applicable law—the Russian archives holds the photo and therefore the rights to it, not the Ukrainian archives. Because the Russian law is retroactive, the image is still under copyright protection in Russia. Parsecboy (talk) 10:42, 13 July 2010 (UTC)
- Since when is a law from the year 2008 relevant, if the protection date is the 1. January 1996 and the image was not copyrighted in russia at that time ? You are discussing unobjectively do you ? --Kl833x9 17:41, 13 July 2010 (UTC)
- Because copyright is retroactive and items can be placed back under copyright protection. I personally disagree with it, but it happens and we have to follow it. We lost a lot of GPW images due to the 2008 revision of the copyright law, even the raising of the Soviet flag in Berlin. User:Zscout370 (Return fire) 17:52, 13 July 2010 (UTC)
- The appointed date for the US-Copyright Law was the January 1st 1996. Every file which was public domain on that date, is after the US-copyright Law still in public domain in the US regardless if there have been retroactive law changes or not. --Kl833x9 (talk) 18:21, 13 July 2010 (UTC)
- But it won't be public domain in the source country, which makes the files no-go for the Commons. User:Zscout370 (Return fire) 18:24, 13 July 2010 (UTC)
- The source country was the Soviet union and the Ukraine was a part of the soviet union ... --Kl833x9 (talk) 18:29, 13 July 2010 (UTC)
- But the photograph was taken in Moscow, Russia SFSR, not the Ukraine. Unless you can show a publication date INSIDE the Ukraine, then we cannot have this photo on here. User:Zscout370 (Return fire) 18:34, 13 July 2010 (UTC)
- Assuming, for the sake of argument, that you are correct about the status in the Ukraine, how exactly does that make the image public domain in the United States? You have not addressed that crucial detail, and whether this image remains on Commons or has to be moved to the Ukrainian Wiki depends on whether you or anyone else can prove that this image is PD in the United States. Parsecboy (talk) 02:32, 12 July 2010 (UTC)
- We are going in circles: I have allready mentioned that neither the russian nor the ukrainian copyright mention that they are protecting only a ukrainian or a russian part of the intellectual property of the soviet union. They are protecting the whole intellectual property ... --Kl833x9 (talk) 20:14, 13 July 2010 (UTC)
- Once again: The Ukraine was part of the soviet union in 1944, so the unkrainian copyright includes every soviet work until 1991. The photo has been published for the first time in the Iswestia on 18th July 1944. The photographer is unknown. --Kl833x9 (talk) 17:27, 11 July 2010 (UTC) 17:26, 11 July 2010 (UTC)
Keep There is no need to delete this photo. As Kl833x9 said, the photograph was taken in the Soviet Union. Hence it is possible to apply the Ukrainian copyright. It doesn't matter in which Federative Republic of the Soviet Union the photo was taken. Also the photographer had the Soviet citizenship (not the Russian, Ukrainian, Kazakh...). --Paramecium (talk) 09:19, 18 July 2010 (UTC)
- Kl833x9's states "Therefore it is feasible to apply both copyright terms on soviet work." According to that logic, the image must be deleted, because it is unquestionably still under copyright protection in Russia. The 2008 law retroactively placed this image back under copyright protection in Russia, so it's not in the public domain in one of the countries of origin. Parsecboy (talk) 16:40, 18 July 2010 (UTC)

Yes, agree with starscream... and, nextime, read template carefully - "This file is a Ukrainian or Soviet work".
- Moscow is the captial of Russia, not of the Ukraine. Even if this photo would be a Ukrainian work, it has to 1st: been published before 1953 and it's author died before 1953. Both is even not claimed. sугсго 08:14, 22 September 2010 (UTC)

Comment comments but no arguments - trolling? The NYPL gives the source Blagosostoianie detei Sovetskogo Soiuza. In Russian that is благосостояние детей Советского Союза, translated Prosperity for the children of the Soviet Union, I thought maybe its a book title, but apparently the collection is only a captioned photo album. Its unclear if it - photo album or individual photos - was ever published. It is unclear - book or individual photos - if it was published only locally or across the soviet union including Ukraine. If this connection to the Ukraine not exists it cant be licensed as pd-ukraine and must go. --Martin H. (talk) 21:49, 14 October 2010 (UTC)
Deleted, no evidence that this image was taken by an Ukrainian, taken in Ukraine or first published in Ukraine, thus {{PD-Ukraine}} does not apply. Kameraad Pjotr 18:18, 19 October 2010 (UTC)
Unused small GIF image, appears to lack educational use. Description insufficient to even tell what it is. Also seems likely to be copyvio based on uploader's other contribs and the fact that it seems to be designed for display on a dark background (which would make little sense if it was actually own work made for use on Wikimedia sites).

Does not meet criterias for freedom of panorama (copyrighted object (the photo) has to be at one place over a long time or ever). ← Körnerbrötchen » ✉ 19:55, 19 May 2010 (UTC)
By your logic, this would mean that the Category:Election posters in the United Kingdom (with 24 pics) and the Category:Election posters by country (with 15 countries) would also have to be deleted. If you delete my entries you have to delete all of these categories too. I don't think so. Ardfern (talk) 20:02, 19 May 2010 (UTC)
- You will also notice that it is categorised as a picture of a road sign in Belfast - another reason not to delete it. Ardfern (talk) 20:07, 19 May 2010 (UTC)

This is freedom of panorama and just common sense, you can't display something publicly in the hope that it will not be photographed in any way. If we go down this route we'll have to start deleting pictures with graffiti or a billboard in them. In any case I've always thought all of this copyright criteria is something we should only pay lip service to at best.Mtaylor848 (talk) 11:50, 23 May 2010 (UTC)
- No chance it is not allowed in Germany to photograph and publish those things. Best example is de:Verhüllter_Reichstag#Bildrechte. ← Körnerbrötchen » ✉ 13:10, 23 May 2010 (UTC)
These posters were not displayed in Germany, now were they published in Germany, the images were neither created nor published in Germany. Freedom of panorama applies here. These tags are being placed on other similar election images.Mtaylor848 (talk) 19:46, 27 May 2010 (UTC)

According to the category of this painter, this was done in Germany and still in copyright there. The use of this Ukrainian tag is false since the painter did not live in the Ukraine and is not ethnically Ukrainian. User:Zscout370 (Return fire) 23:58, 19 May 2010 (UTC)
- Delete Agreed that it is still in copyright. As for the tag, he was born in Moscow and lived in Russia for several periods, so the rules summarized in the Ukrainian tag would have applied if the painting had been done while he was there. It wasn't. Jim . . . . Jameslwoodward (talk to me) 14:05, 26 May 2010 (UTC)

- Comment Ok, badly described. But we cannot pretend that users, at first attempt, knew attentively all the rules of Commons. Or copyright. I'm still ignorant and puzzled myself. Anyway, if it's just a promotional picture, so the authorship is irrelevant, why not {{PD-US-no notice}}?--Giorgiomonteforti (talk) 11:06, 19 May 2010 (UTC)
- Delete We don't pretend that first time users know our rules -- that's why we have this {{Delete}} process which notifies the uploader and takes a week or more to consider the matter. It's unlikely that this is {{PD-US-no notice}} -- back then, professional photographers were generally very careful about notice, with a rubber stamped notice on the back of every image that left their shop. It might be {{PD-US-not renewed}}, but that's not up to us to investigate. The burden of proof is on the uploader for the very good reason that there are very few volunteers actually doing this work and thousands of uploaders. Jim . . . .

Der Sinn der Urheberrechts ist es, die Rechte des Eigentümres, und ggfls. seiner Erbe zu schützen.

Es wird ein gemeinnütziger Zweck erfüll dadurch, dass gezeigt wird, wie Dodenhoff in verschiedenen Phasen gemalt hat. Ich, als derjenige, der die Fotos veröffentlicht, mache das nicht aus dem Grund der Gewinnerzielung. Es ist keine gewerbliche Veröffentlichung. Leute, es wird keine Probleme geben. Andererseits kann es immer Probleme geben in der großen weiten Welt und im großen Wikipedia, und daran ändert Ihr auch nichts. Würde ich nach Eurer Einstellung leben, könnte ich in den Kindergarten zurück gehen und auf nächste Anweisungen warten, damit mir nichts geschieht. Ich wirke hier mit, weil es mir eigentlich "Spaß" machen sollte. Natürlich muss so ein großes Werk auch mit Regeln verbunden sein.

This map is not based on valid or reliable sources and is probably an original research of Romanian user Anonimu from English Wikipedia who was original author of this map. Map is supposedly based on this source: http://pntcd.ro-usa.com/romintimoc.htm however, this link is dead (and I doubt that it ever worked). Basic problem with this map is that it present false Vlach-majority territory. If this map is compared with some other ethnic maps, it is clear that Vlach are not inhabiting such large territory. Here are examples: 2002 census ethnic map, 1981 census ethnic map, 1953 census ethnic map, and 1931 census ethnic map (the last one is from Romanian Wikipedia and even in that map some supposedly Vlach majority settlements from File:Timvlach.png were inhabited by Serbs). 194.106.188.101 21:21, 19 May 2010 (UTC) 194.106.188.101 21:21, 19 May 2010 (UTC)
- Comment: This is how the site looked when I created the map: archived version (wait a bit to load). The source doesn't fit the current reliability standards (when I first uploaded it, the standards where more lax), as it seems it's the page of a Romania political party authored by a guy (Viorel Dolha) with a slightly (Romanian) nationalist discourse, and there's no sign of peer review. I'm unable to assert the relation between this map and the real life situation on those territories. At the time when I uploaded it, no detailed ethnic data was readily available, however nowadays, with the increased Internet penetration in Eastern Europe, I think more adequate maps can be created. In short, this was the best data available 4 years ago, and, as all pioneering works, it may have imperfections. I don't oppose this file's deletion if someone can come with a more accurate version. Also, it would be nice if, when proposing deletion, users assumed good faith.Anonimu (talk) 19:06, 22 May 2010 (UTC)
- Ok, I apologize for not assuming good faith in your case, but due to recent problems with user Olahus in Serbian Wikipedia and in Wikimedia Commons, this issue became problematic and crossed limits of good faith. It is logical that someone is concerned for map accuracy and good faith when link that was described as a source for this controversial map did not worked. Of course, you now explained that link simply expired, so doubts about good/bad faith should not be raised any more. However, I checked the archived version of the source page, and there are still problems with this source: although this source contains a list of supposedly Vlach-populated villages, it also contains a sentence that claim that this village list was created on the basis that „in these places you (i.e. if you are an Romanian) do not need translators in oral communication with local Serb“. This is an subjective view of ethnic situation in these villages and since we know that many of such settlements are mixed (this map is very good illustration of that ethnic mix), the fact that an Romanian can speak with some inhabitants of one village does not mean that all (or majority) of village inhabitants are Vlachs. I will also give some examples: in this map's source there is description that settlements Miroč, Nerešnica, Brza Palanka, etc are populated exclusively with Vlachs, while this 1931 census-based map show that these settlements were either majority Serb either mixed. Clearly, this source does not reflect data from any census or any serious ethnographic research. Data given in this source that 1953 census recorded in this region 198,728 Serbs who spoke Vlach language can't be used with interpretation that all Serbs in these settlements are in fact Vlachs. There are certain issues that should be taken into consideration when this issue is in question: 1. this 1931 census-based map clearly show where these Vlach speakers lived since this census did not recorded ethnicity of people – it recorded only language. So, it is obvious that speakers of Serbian language from this 1931 map are not Vlachs, but „real“ Serbs. 2. There are certain demographic processes that influenced demographic situation in this region such is decrease of Vlach population because of low birth rate, immigration of Serbs from other parts of Yugoslavia and assimilation through mixed marriages. 3. Interpretation of 1953 data that 198,728 Serbs who spoke Vlach language were in fact Vlachs can be used in relation to year 1953, but not to year 2010 since last Serbian census in 2002 recorded in Serbia 54,818 speakers of Vlach language and 40,054 ethnic Vlachs, meaning that there could be no more than some 14,000 Vlach-speaking Serbs. Speaking about question whether this issue is already covered with other maps, 2002 ethnic situation is already covered by this map whose author is demographer Varjačić Vladimir, while historical situation is very good covered with this map (I would also suggest that somebody move this 1931 census map from Romanian Wikipedia to Wikimedia Commons so that it can be used in other Wikipedias). 194.106.189.152 12:36, 26 May 2010 (UTC)
- Comment: They are no problems with me, they are only problems with Serbian POV-pushers like you who love to modify the description of images and interpret an image on baseless argumentations. You seem to have a problem with the term "Romanian" since you insist to replace it with "Vlach". You are edit-warring with me on the Atlas of Serbia from this reason. And it is also strange that you "forgot" to mention the 1921-census http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Rumani_dunareni_1920_1921.jpg well well ... --Olahus (talk) 13:56, 26 May 2010 (UTC)
- Administrators in Serbian Wikipedia can confirm that there are problems with you and they had to protect some articles there because of your vandalism. If descriptions in some files are not accurate all good-faith users can correct them. Problem with this file is presentation of false area with Vlach majority, so issues related to other files and articles should not be discussed here. Also, the file that supposedly refer to 1921 census does not show Serb-speaking population in the area and hence it is tendentios – data in that file should be confirmed by independent sources. 194.106.189.228 23:34, 26 May 2010 (UTC)

- well, I can prove that you had confrontation with administrators in serbian wikipedia: here an administrator in serbian wikipedia protected article because of you and here you accused one ethnic hungarian administrator in serbian wikipedia for abusive behaviour (how one ethnic hungarian can be Serbian POV-pusher as you wrote here?) It is clear that administrators of different ethnic backgrounds recognized your edits as abusive. I also do not see reason to read article in english wikipedia since wikipedia article itself is not reference for anything. If you have any specific references included into that article and that are related to this subject, please present such references on this page. 194.106.188.103 15:01, 27 May 2010 (UTC)

- Keep My tendency with this sort of thing is to keep the image with {{Inaccurate-map-disputed}} on it. While I have no idea whether it is accurate or not -- the issue here is whether it might be useful in illustrating ethnic tensions or propaganda (if it is propaganda -- I don't know). The fact that the map was created, correct or not, is interesting historically and potentially educational. Jim . . . . Jameslwoodward (talk to me) 13:47, 26 May 2010 (UTC)
- Well, in such case, it should be clearly described that file is not accurate and that it only represent Greater Romanian propaganda and their territorial pretensions towards Serbia. However, I still fail to see why we need file that reflect nationalistic propaganda when we already have good and accurate census-based ethnic maps of serbia. This file will only make delusion and will not inform readers about accurate situation, which is main purpose of files and articles in wikipedia (or in wikimedia). 194.106.189.228 23:34, 26 May 2010 (UTC)

- Even such maps, based on estimated instead of census results are built on an etimation which is based on older census results who revealed a higher number of Vlach-Romanian population and by far more localities with a Vlach-Romanian majority. Just take into account that the 1895-census counted 159,000 "Romanians". The 1961-census only 1,330 "Vlachs" and the 2002-census 40,054 "Vlachs". As you can see the census results on this population show high deviations. The reasons for such results might be varius: forgery by the Serbian statistics, non-declaration of the Vlach/Romanian indentity beacause many members of this community feared of discrimination and marginalization, or, simply because they have a fluctuating national counscience due to an assimilation by the Serbs. However, the Vlach organizations from this area must act in pursuance with estimations. And the information from Timvlach.png is accepted by the Vlach organization. Weather You or I like it or not, this map is accepted by this organization and there is nothing more to say about it. I repeat: everything else is POV.--Olahus (talk) 11:45, 2 June 2010 (UTC)
