Kept.

Our policy on coats of arms and similar heraldry is clear -- the blazon, the words which describe the heraldry cannot be copyrighted. Specific realizations -- drawings -- from those words are subject to copyright. But new realizations, which this appears to be, have only their own copyright and are not derivative works of the blazon.      Jim . . . .

GERMANS DON'T LIKE SWASTIKKKAS! 84.61.138.168 18:54, 13 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]


Speedy kept: No valid reason for deletion. --Amitie 10g (talk) 19:52, 13 August 2014 (UTC) (non-admin closure)[reply]

As erroneously stated in former deletion requests, this file doesn't show neither a coat of arms nor a heraldic thing, but a religious symbol being above TOO, what isn't Public Domain or CC-left, but a copyrighted symbol or logo. Delete it because of plainly copyright violence or get a permission for usage. Doc Taxon (talk) 16:04, 21 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Comment the following considerations must be taken into account:
  1. The symbol is banned in the PRC. That means the copyright in the PRC is probably a moot point because it can’t be legally granted.
  2. The symbol may or may not be above COM:TOO-US.
  3. Keep in mind that every single component of the whole logo is not copyrightable (five swastikas, four yin-yang symbols, and two circles)
  4. however, per TOO-US, some images made up of similarly non-copyrightable elements have been copyrighted, but these often were altered just enough to be original.
  5. Overall there seems to be a strong precedent in the US towards imaginative originality (i.e. not using preexisting material), which this image, broadly speaking, lacks. Dronebogus (talk) 07:33, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • non-authoritative  Keep this file is legally under TOO as it consists only of a yin-yang symbol and two arrows surrounded by text. The FG emblem consists of four YinYangs and five swastikas, which doesn’t strike me as all that different— even before copy/paste that wasn’t exactly hard to draw, and as stated neither of those things are copyrighted. The circles count as simple frames which are rarely considered as adding to the TOO “score”. Dronebogus (talk) 07:43, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    In short there’s only three unique elements and they’re all in the public domain as either ancient or simple geometry. Dronebogus (talk) 07:45, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    the symbol is above TOO due to its idea, its arrangement design of the symbols and of its originality. Doc Taxon (talk) 08:54, 2 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hohum (talk) 18:51, 13 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, we do need something better than "The website says most of what's there is PD" which is the only licensing information available on the file page. Did you notice that that image over at NARA says "possible restrictions--copyright"? If you have better information then perhaps you should post it there on the file page. Geogene (talk) 19:40, 13 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]


Anyway, since this is a duplicate image I presume it's eligible for speedy deletion. The duplicate's license tag seems to be in order. Geogene (talk) 19:44, 13 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
This file is not a duplicate of the file that you indicated, because this file has been uploaded in 2007, and the other file in 2011. Therefore,  Keep --Amitie 10g (talk) 20:05, 13 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

 Keep Apparently, superseded images are not deleted. And since the uploader of this version has linked to a duplicate that has a valid license tag, I am withdrawing my delete nomination (and fixing this image's license tag). For future reference, note that statements like "most of these images are not copyrighted" is NOT equivalent to "all of these images are not copyrighted". Now I have to wonder how many copyrighted images from NARA are floating around Commons. But I'm satisfied that this is not one of them. Geogene (talk) 20:47, 13 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

GERMANS DON'T LIKE SWASTIKKKAS! 84.61.138.168 18:49, 13 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

 Comment Is the Falun Gong logo illegal in Germany (and Austria)? --84.61.138.168 20:00, 13 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

WTF? First, Commons is not censored.
Please read Swastika, this is a very antique symbol. The Nazi Party adopted their variant (rotated in 45º, black with straight edges and rect sides, inside a white circle inside a red square -or a rectangle in their official flag-), based somewhat from the Thule society variant (black, not rotated with rounded sides and straight edges), that represents the Black Sun.
Anyway, the Swastika (as the whole symbol) is not illegal in Germany, Australia, and neither country arround the world, and the Nazi varian is illegal in Germany and other countries unless if is used for educational purposes, like the files uploaded to Commons and used in the Wikimedia projects. So, please learn more history before making non-sense DRs as this. --Amitie 10g (talk) 03:35, 14 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry to say, but I'm just not seeing the claim of this being PD anywhere on the source's website. Courcelles 01:21, 13 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]


Deleted: I'm deleting this because it is not at all clear that the Mathunion's statement is true. First, everything has a copyright, so strictly speaking it starts out incorrect. However, we could read it simply as a way of saying that the image is PD. However, where did the MathUnion get the image? How is it that they own the copyright. That took me to the home page of Stanford University, where Mirzakhani is a professor (http://www.stanford.edu/) Lo and behold, the image is top center on Stanford's home page, with a copyright notice at the bottom. So, I ask, when Stanford needed an image to illustrate their home page, are they likely to have used one from MathUnion or from their own files? While the former is possible, it's much more likely that MathUnion used a Stanford image and has put an incorrect release on it.

Stanford might well be willing to give us a license via OTRS for its distinguished faculty member's WP:EN page, but until it does this is a {{Speedy}}.      Jim . . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 10:16, 20 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy keep Starting a new DR with exactly the same reason within twelve hours of the closure of the old one borders on vandalism -- it certainly isn't helpful to the project.

I certainly don't understand why you feel so strongly about this gallery, but please remember that policy specifically provides for galleries in parallel with categories and encourages them when the category is large, as this one is. Why don't you spend your time correcting the problems you see here instead of wasting other people's time on repetitive DRs? .     Jim . . . .

Speedy keep Gallery with more informations. Orchi (talk) 10:58, 21 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Orchi, which part of «Please do not make any edits to this archive.» you fail to understand? If you want, for whatver ponderous reason, to vote for keep on a DR which was already closed to keep, at least do it outside the fenced off area, okay? (This already happen twice in this thread. Vandalism, too? Or maybe the fact that botanical incompetence, ignorance of Commons’ curating goals, and lack of wikitext skills go hand in hand?) -- Tuválkin 01:06, 22 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Jameslwoodward, if you stop conflating your roles as the admin who closes and the user who discusses, maybe this could be more fruitful. My reasons to delete this “gallery” (sadly identical to those usable to file DRs for 99% of all other files in the same namespace) were expressed in my nomination and your didn’t bother to address them, instead voting for keep (and indeed keeping in one go) based on some boilerplate pablum. If you seriously think this page does anything else than misinform the casual user on the actual wealth of media about Ruscus aculeatus hosted in Wikimedia Commons, then please actually address the nomination and keep it open to allow follow-up and wider discussion. (As for your accusation of borderline vandalism against me, it is ludicrous — I think you mean to say instead I’m being impolite? Well, between allowing misleading content to be further hosted in Commons and risking to hurt your feelings as the closing admin, I’ll always chose the latter.) -- Tuválkin 01:06, 22 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Policy allows, indeed encourages, parallel galleries and categories, particularly when the category is large, as this one is. Trying to get the gallery deleted against policy is a waste of time. Why don't you take your time and your energy and use it to improve the gallery instead of trying to get it deleted against policy? .     Jim . . . .

Isn't that rather like saying a poem cannot be copyrighted because words are not eligible for copyright? Indeed, per Kay Berry Inc v.

In this pool are not only elemental `raw materials,' like colors, letters, descriptive facts, and the catalogue of standard geometric forms, but also earlier works of art that, due to the passage of time or for other reasons, are no longer copyright protected.' Tufenkian Import/Export Ventures, Inc. v. Einstein Moomjy, Inc., 338 F.3d 127, 132 (2d Cir.2003).'

How did this get on the website? Ugh, someone clicked on a PNG preview of this beyond-TOO image from Wikipedia and downloaded it here, slapped a false Creative Commons license on it, and nobody cares for some reason. Why has it taken so long for anyone, including me, to do this? -BRAINULATOR9 (TALK) 16:13, 13 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

 Delete You wonder "how did this get on the website"? .... simply because hundred of files are uploaded here per day, and the admin and editors have their own occupations appart from being here, I guess. This logo is far above the ToO for me. - Fma12 (talk) 14:13, 15 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Of course. And it is above the ToO... but the license says CC-BY-SA. This logo was first used before that was even widespread. And why is there no trademark license either? -BRAINULATOR9 (TALK)
I guess the uploader did not know what license to use and put "own work" so the cc-by-sa appeared automatically. - Fma12 (talk) 16:54, 18 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Per COM:DW. Stefan4 (talk) 20:31, 13 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I believe de minimis would apply, since the park is the subject, and the photo of Cruz is only a portion of the park. I think the third and fifth examples in the Guidelines section are comparable to this piece.
Also, does freedom of panorama and the fact that the work is permanently installed in a public place, apply here? Nightscream (talk) 03:10, 14 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
COM:DM is not applicable since the photo is a major purpose of the image. It is only de minimis if the copyrighted work is insignificant and unavoidable. --Stefan4 (talk) 21:36, 14 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
This is claimed to be from the United States, which only has freedom of panorama for buildings. This is not a building. --Stefan4 (talk) 21:36, 14 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
So would you propose that the park be photographed? Nightscream (talk) 04:46, 15 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
De minimis is all about how the image is used. If the purpose of the image is to show the park, then it is maybe fine. If the purpose of the image is to show this photograph, then it is not de minimis. When the image is used in an article, the use must be unrelated to the inclusion of the copyrighted photograph. For example, a photograph showing this photograph can't be used in w:Celia Cruz, as the use there clearly refers to the inclusion of the copyrighted photograph. --Stefan4 (talk) 11:08, 15 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Deleted: User:Nightscream, not everything can be photographed for Commons. This small park may well be one such thing as its only distinctive features have a clear copyright. .     Jim . . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 12:57, 20 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

In most countries, all paintings, sculpture, architecture, text, and other creative works have copyrights which last for 70 years after the death of the creator. An image of a work that is still under copyright is a derivative work, and infringes on the copyright so that we cannot usually keep the image on Commons. In some countries, there is a special exception to the copyright law which allows such images under certain circumstances. We call that exception freedom of panorama (FOP). Unfortunately there is no applicable FOP exception in Iran. Therefore, this image infringes on several architects' copyrights. .     Jim . . . .

Claimed to be PD-Old. Yet the author, one R. Tisch, is named and said to have sold this image in the 1960ies. When he was still alive in the 1960ies, he definitely hasn't been dead for at least 70 years, and this image is definitely NOT PD-Old (70 years pma).

Rosenzweig τ 23:01, 13 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

It all depends on how we interpret the fact that R. Tisch sold all his Płaszów camp photographs in the 1960s. Selling them meant selling his rights which is a standard understanding of the law. At that point the photographs were donated by an undisclosed buyer – a former KL prisoner – to a public institution thus waiving his own rights as well. Poeticbent talk 05:01, 17 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
That's a lot of speculation. Do you have any actual proof for this? Contrary to what you seem to think, selling photos (= photographic prints or negatives) does not automatically mean selling the rights to them as well or "waiving" them when donating to some institution. Even if we assumed your theory was correct, the PD-Old license tag used is incorrect. But to actually assume that your theory is correct, we'd need more than just speculation. --Rosenzweig τ 11:59, 17 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I don't suppose Mr. Tisch kept the negatives with the intention of selling them again to someone else. That in fact, would be the most extreme form of speculation about their provenance. Poeticbent talk 20:57, 17 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
So no proof for your theory? --Rosenzweig τ 23:37, 17 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Here's a proof in reverse from the Public Catalog of the United States Copyright Office. One Raimund Tisch does not hold any copyrights. Poeticbent talk 03:05, 18 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Not in the USA perhaps. But these are not US photos, so their US copyright status is only ancillary. --Rosenzweig τ 11:32, 18 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Deleted: Since we know that the photographer was alive in the 1960s, these have copyrighta. The question is, who owns them? Since we don't know whether the copyrights were transferred or not -- in the case of many informal sales there are no written transfers as required by law in most jurisdictions, it is entirely possible that the photographer's heirs still own the copyrights. It is possible, albeit unlikely, that Tisch's undisclosed buyer owns the rights. However, it is most likely that the rights were, in fact, transferred to the "public institution" mentioned above. Unfortunately, that is Yad Vashem, which definitely does not freely license the works that it owns, see http://www.yadvashem.org/yv/en/about/terms_and_conditions.asp. So, no matter who owns the copyright, it is not freely licensed. .     Jim . . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 13:05, 20 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

A poor quality file might be kept, especially if Commons has very few or no similar files already or in such case where the subject is rare and/or difficult to capture but where the subject is easy to capture or if Commons already hosts many similar or better quality examples and the low-resolution file is superseded then there is no realistic educational value to host the poor quality file. ~ Nahid Talk 14:40, 15 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Either these are "own work" as claimed, in which case they are personal art and therefore out of scope, or, much more likely, they are the work of someone else, in which case there is no evidence of permission. In either case, they cannot be kept on Commons.

Obviously, it's time for another Cloud Gate DR. I've tried to be as generous as I felt was reasonable about only including the images that violate the copyright in this sculpture.

For context, en:Cloud Gate is a public sculpture erected in 2006 in McCormick Park in Chicago. It is not only copyrighted (with no FOP for sculpture in the US), but the City of Chicago has licensed it from the artist, and requires permission for any commercial use of photographs (which is incompatible with Commons).

I've tried to weed out the ones where either the Bean is a de minimis aspect of an image of the park itself, or where it's shape is not visible and it's only 'a mirrored object'. Most of these are simply not okay.

In File:The Bean and McCormick Tribune Plaza.jpg, the bean is de minimis, image hardly even has the bean in the photo. The sculpture is not even visible in File:Tented cloud gate.jpg. File:Cloud gate construction.jpg is simply a photo of a construction site, the sculpture had yet to be erected. It is inarguably de minimis in File:2005-10-13 2880x1920 chicago above millennium park.jpg. It is also minimus in File:Millennium park,chicago.JPG. It is hardly even visible in File:Millenium Park (7391867314).jpg. Seems to be de minimus in File:Bean from Kemper Tower (14958184744).jpg. Also, hardly the primary focal point of the image File:Chicago Bean.jpg. Not at all included in the image File:Cloud gate, Chicago skyline.jpg, as far as I can tell (not sure why it is in this category). Certainly not included in the image File:2008TIBE Day5 Hall1 ThemeSquare On the Road with Cloud Gate.jpg (should not be in this category at all). Not the primary focal point of the image File:The Bean - Millennium Park - panoramio.jpg.

@SecretName101: Considering File:Cloud gate construction.jpg, in this photo, I see a cross section of what looks like one of the sculptor's ribs, with cross-supports. This looks to me like derivative work of the sculptor's copyrighted mechanical drawings.   — Jeff G. ツ 01:20, 4 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
However, this segment essentially (from what is visible in this image) takes a spoke-and-wheel shape, a physical form that has existed since early human history.

The deletion of File:2005-10-13 2880x1920 chicago above millennium park.jpg would be particularly catastrophic, and utterly unnecessary. This is a valuable (and widely-used) image, in which the sculpture inarguably is de minimus. SecretName101 (talk) 04:28, 2 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • I've got to disagree with this. If the image were just a distorted picture of the public space, it should be deleted as out of scope. The value of the image is that it's not just the space but a reflection in the sculpture. — Rhododendrites talk22:26, 3 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

 Keep File:The Bean Chicago United States Travel Photography (112096191).jpeg is just a reflection on a surface, I don't see anything copyrightable there. This photograph also shows such a simple and usual object: File:The Bean (30263803).jpeg that I have difficulty understanding why it would be above the threshold of originality. Was there some case on court about it, or something similar?-- Darwin Ahoy! 22:22, 17 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Jeff G.: I know, but there is also TOO. You can't simply declare something is art and expect protection. Something that looks like a mere ellipse in a reflective material look way below the TOO for the US. But for File:The Bean Chicago United States Travel Photography (112096191).jpeg it's obviously  Keep, there's nothing copyrightable there, at least that I can see.-- Darwin Ahoy! 01:14, 18 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
 Delete all as blatant derivative work copyvios. DarwIn TOO is no longer relevant if this sculpture by its copyright-conscious artist w:Anish Kapoor has caused hot water to several users in the past, most notably NRA (National Rifle Association) when they included an image of this artwork in their video. See [5], [6], and [7], which I used as sources for another entry under "United States" in w:Freedom of panorama enwiki article and its Tagalog Wikipedia translation. All non-trivial images of this sculpture must be removed (US de minimis is much sharper, see COM:DM United States, it uses "triviality" concept than "incidental").

@JWilz12345: TOO does matter here; I could for example extract one of the squiggly lines from Donald Duck's head and it would suddenly fall below TOO. So just because the work as a whole is above TOO, doesn't mean that a small portion of the work is necessarily also above TOO. For images like File:The Bean Chicago United States Travel Photography (112096191).jpeg, the shape of the outline is almost certainly below TOO. So the artist here has essentially created an algorithm to transform the surrounding Chicago skyline, in the form of a mirror reflection. The question becomes: Does the creator of this algorithm have enough creative input to have a copyright stake on its output, which was chosen by the photographer? -- King of ♥ 04:39, 14 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@King of Hearts: it seems we are entering another part of the gray area of the no U.S. freedom of panorama for any protected public artworks concept. The sculpture may be a simple kidney-shaped bean that is "ordinary" in the eyes of most people, though it has created headaches for one end-user (National Rifle Association). Kapoor himself is a noted litigous artist, and one attorney asserts that only the City of Chicago has the right to commercially use images of this copyrighted work. Perhaps COM:Project scope/Precautionary principle may roll in? JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 04:48, 14 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Part of PCP is that the likelihood of the creator suing should not be taken into account in these decisions. That's why we kept the monkey selfie. In some of these closeups, I just don't see anything copyrightable. -- King of ♥ 06:00, 14 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Looks like the U.S. Copyright Office considers it creative enough to be copyrighted. [8] Ixfd64 (talk) 17:44, 27 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Some of them can be cropped or have the work of art blurred out of them, and still be useful. I deleted the obvious cases, though.-- Darwin Ahoy! 16:39, 3 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Another set of derivative work copyvios: of a sculpture protected by copyright by its living artist w:Anish Kapoor. Previously these were categorized under Category:Millennium Park so they got undetected. See [9] and [10] for the basis of nomination for these perhaps last non-trivial images of the copyrighted sculpture. There is no freedom of panorama for all copyrighted artworks in the United States, see COM:FOP US. US de minimis is sharper (COM:DM United States), as it uses "triviality" concept instead of "incidental".

Still another set of derivative work copyright violations. No FOP of any sort for copyrighted public works in the U.S. except architecture, and sculptor Anish Kapoor does not allow free culture (commercial) reuses of visual appearances of "his" artwork! See also above nominations. American de minimis uses triviality concept instead of incidental/accessory concept like those in Europe or much of Asia.

There is no freedom of panorama for copyrighted public art in the United States, and none of the nominated images show the sculpture in a trivial manner (U.S. de minimis is too narrower than European ones). This sculpture has been the subject of a copyright lawsuit by its living sculptor, Anish Kapoor, against a commercial user, NRA. See also the following resources regarding Kapoor's lawsuit against NRA: Artnet, The Guardian, and BBC.

Files in Category:Cloud Gate 13

Several new files have been added that populate this category. I'm also tagging several older files that haven't been discussed before to gather consensus on whether they should be kept on de minimis grounds.

At issue is that these files depict Cloud Gate, a copyrighted sculpture permanently installed in the US where there is no freedom of panorama for public art. Quoting an earlier successful deletion request, "this sculpture has been the subject of a copyright lawsuit by its living sculptor, Anish Kapoor, against a commercial user, NRA. See also the following resources regarding Kapoor's lawsuit against NRA: Artnet, The Guardian, and BBC." IMO the litigousness of the copyright holder should not affect our consistent application of standards around copyright law but it's been brought up before so I suppose it's worth bringing up again.

First, there is one photo that is entirely of Cloud Gate for which a de minimis rationale would not apply:

Second, there are several photos in which Cloud Gate appears at a distince within the larger context of the setting. A de minimis arguement could be made for these, and we have kept two files in the past (File:2005-10-13 2880x1920 chicago above millennium park.jpg and File:Millennium park,chicago.JPG) on these grounds. However, in both of those cases Cloud Gate is a significantly smaller and less focal portion of the image.

Third, several photos depict a portion of Cloud Gate up close, often with the inclusion of other elements in the foreground or background. Do these files qualify as de minimis inclusion of the copyrighted work? Consider this file which had most of Cloud Gate coropped out to focus on the background elements instead.

Finally, one photo is simply a selfie taken by way of the mirrored surface of Cloud Gate. This might be argued to be entirely a photo of the sculpture, or to be a completely de minimis usage. In either case, I'm nominating it here for consensus:

Any of these files that aren't deleted (or that are partially cropped and saved) can be added to Category:Incidental views of the Cloud Gate. Thanks! Bobamnertiopsis (talk) 17:37, 21 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]


I disagree that the statue is a "clear focal point" of either File:Chicago skyscrapers on a rainy night (52036718532).jpg or File:Bilde(62) (801715).jpg. I would keep both of those. SecretName101 (talk) 19:48, 21 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep File:Bean Selfie.jpg - here is a reflective surface. Reflections are not subject to copyright. The artist did not invent a mirrored surface. The copyright object cannot be distinguished as different from a mirror by this close up image. -- Ooligan (talk) 13:34, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Keep It's copyright holder is a legal personality (i.e. Tehran municipality) and the tower has been built in 1971 that means more than 30 years has been passed after its date of public presentation, so it definitely falls into the public domain in Iran and anyone can take a photo of the Tower and publish it under a suitable license.

In most countries, all paintings, sculpture, architecture, text, and other creative works have copyrights which last for 70 years after the death of the creator. An image of a work that is still under copyright is a derivative work, and infringes on the copyright so that we cannot usually keep the image on Commons. In some countries, there is a special exception to the copyright law which allows such images under certain circumstances. We call that exception freedom of panorama (FOP). Unfortunately there is no applicable FOP exception in Iran. The previous DR reached a faulty conclusion. The copyright lasts for fifty years after the death of the creator. The fact that the owner of the work is a legal entity has no bearing on this -- the period is reduced to thirty years after creation only if the copyright is transferred and there is no evidence that anyone but the architect owns the copyright. .     Jim . . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 21:26, 13 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

COM:FOP#Iran says "copyright of the works which produced on order by an employer belongs to the employer for a period of thirty years from the date of production" and "In cases where the work belongs to a legal personality or rights are transferred to a legal personality, it will fall into public domain after 30 years from the date of publication or public presentation". // Liftarn (talk)
There is no evidence that the creator of the monument, Hossein Amanat, was an employee of the government. His WP:EN biography makes no mention of it. It is far more likely that the work was done on commission, as is true of almost all art and architecture. The second quote above refers to the ownership of the copyright, not of the work itself. There is no evidence that this copyright was transferred and such transfers are very unusual.
In order to keep the work it must be proven beyond a significant doubt that either Hossein Amanat was an employee of the Iranian government when he designed this work or that he transferred the copyright in the work to the government. .     Jim . . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 10:33, 14 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
"produced on order" seem to indicate that an employment is not necessary. To delete it it would require that Hossein Amanat did not do it on commission but designed it first and then the government built it without getting ownership of the design. // Liftarn (talk)
No. You cannot separate "produced on order" from "by an employer". In order for the clause to apply, Amant must have been an employee, not simply an independent architect. Again, there is no evidence that he was an employee of the government at any time in his career. .     Jim . . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 12:04, 16 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Please also check Commons:Village pump/Copyright#Category:Azadi Tower. It looks like according to Berne Convention the source country is Canada and not Iran, as Iran is not a Berne Convention member state and the architect is Canadian citizen. It is unclear how Commons rules apply in this case, but technically images of this building become free if we take Canada as a source country — NickK (talk) 12:59, 17 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
He is a dual citizen now (Canada and Iran), but he did not leave Iran until eight years after this structure was built, so I don't see how we can possibly stretch the source country to be Canada. .     Jim . . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 10:32, 18 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
