This is new to me: I see a red X under the image, saying that it should be removed from Commons, so I'm nominating it for deletion. Also, a different version can be found here [1]. The version posted on Flickr by Leonard Bentley has an earlier date, I think, but the one I found is copyrighted. Someone isn't telling the truth. In fact, perhaps the image belongs to a different person. I think proof of ownership is required via COM:OTRS because of the conflicting information. Dontreader (talk) 07:50, 8 May 2016 (UTC)

This file was initially tagged by 99of9 as no source (no source since)
- This has an OTRS ticket and a {{Self}} template, so is more source information really needed? Stefan2 (talk) 22:29, 8 May 2016 (UTC)
- I have forgotten this file completely, and any investigation I did at the time. The Google translation of the caption on the es-wiki usage is "The Fraila 'portrait published by the City of Valdepeñas in 2006." I take it that the subject was alive in the early 1800s, but this sketch was done in ~2006. I don't know if the uploader just scanned it or actually did the sketch. At the time I tagged it there was no OTRS, so Ezarate probably has more info. --99of9 (talk) 00:53, 9 May 2016 (UTC)

- As well as File:Womens memorial march.jpg
Files were speedy deleted and then restored in relation to discussion at User_talk:~riley#Womens memorial march, while it is quite evident the author is Chris Bizzy, the source results in a 404 error and the license cannot be verified. ~riley (talk) 23:01, 8 May 2016 (UTC)
- Keep I agree that the licensed cannot be directly verified anymore, and unfortunately Commons didn't verify the source link while it was still active. As I noted on ~riley's Talk page, there's strong evidence that a Chris Bizzy operated the "nofutureface" Flickr account, licensed many pictures under CC, and took pictures from this event and neighbourhood. IMHO, this evidence makes the uploader's description credible. Cheers, Clayoquot (talk) 23:05, 8 May 2016 (UTC)
- Flickr accounts can be permanently deleted for copyright violations. Regardless of what happened to the account, the flickr account is non-existent so we cannot verify the license. My concerns fall under the COM:PRP, we cannot assume that the license is valid or that the account and it's contents itself was valid. ~riley (talk) 23:14, 8 May 2016 (UTC)

The National Museum of American History isn't a Federal institution, and the Smithsonian has claimed copyright over this image on their website. Hchc2009 (talk) 10:52, 8 May 2016 (UTC)
- I don't see a copyright notice on the source page. Also, at permitted uses: "Smithsonian allows personal, educational, and other non-commercial uses of the Content on the following terms: ...". This is a historic photo that can't be reproduced. It is the only color photo of that computer that I can remember seeing, and it is the most detailed. It can't be reproduced because the Smuthsonian says that it is "not on view". Bubba73 (talk) 15:04, 8 May 2016 (UTC)
- Have a look at the terms of use at the bottom of the source page; it explicitly states that "You may not use the Content for commercial purposes", a key requirement for an image being on the Commons. Hchc2009 (talk) 16:06, 8 May 2016 (UTC)

This file was initially tagged by 80.181.200.139 as Speedy (speedy delete) and the most recent rationale was: delete delegation request abusive fake author unregistered. I do not want to delete speedily, if nominator is anonymous. The file has been in Commons for 8 years. Taivo (talk) 07:41, 4 May 2016 (UTC)
- @Taivo: as you can see it's a meaningless reason, given by a long-term abuser (namely Category:Sockpuppets of Fritella).You can find some more background here (with @Jcb: and @Amada44: involved) but also it happened to me in the past. Basically this brainless vandal targets anyone catching him.

[edit]Heavily degraded version of File:Frances_Benjamin_Johnston,_full-length_portrait,_seated_in_front_of_fireplace,_1896.jpg with very heavy JPEG artefacting. Now that we have better, I can't see any reason to keep this, as useful as it may have been at the time. Adam Cuerden (talk) 02:27, 8 May 2016 (UTC)
- There's no need to for you to be snarky and insulting. For over 10 years, the original file was not too useful for article use, due to being much too dark, then due to being surrounded by a bizarre color border. The situation only changed two days ago. Your requests would be more likely to viewed as reasonable if you could skip the display of arrogant attitude (especially since some of your past "restoration" efforts were problematic). AnonMoos (talk) 00:49, 9 May 2016 (UTC)
- @AnonMoos: I... really didn't intend that to come off as insulting. I even said it was useful at the time, but we now have better. It's certainly better than the older version of the original image, but, like that image, there's huge amounts of JPEG artefacting, especially in the dark areas - the image wasn't degradedby yourwork, it was justa very degraded copy that you had to work fromAdam Cuerden (talk) 03:30, 9 May 2016 (UTC)

Comment Bert: I must say you are all seriously vigilant, although I am not always sure what the content of your comments actually means. It would sure be nice to be able to communicate directly with a single contact. I feel pretty battered with 5 individuals anonimously ruling over my actions without knowing even 1 of them, let alone being able (through sheer incompetence on my side, I must add) to understand most of what is being said.
I am currently safeguarding consent for previous (deleted) pictures, the ignorantly publishing on wiki of which I am truly sorry for. I will refrain from uploading any further images without explicit consent (through https://tools.wmflabs.org/relgen/) from their creators. All the images I published have been done so with consent, allbeit not formally deposited. The current uploads, as the previous ones, were taken from a Facebook page containing private (group-)content about Drumfanfare Michaël (mainly pictures).
To be sure: will uploading jpg originals (from the camera, so to speak) resolve this issue? I.e.: if the creator(s) of these images upload them themselves, will that resolve the issue? Or will they still need to release them?— Preceding unsigned comment added by Bert Hogemans (talk • contribs)

- Hello! This file was uploaded for the creating of the page https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Wang_Yurong_Jr.
- It is a snapshot of the original photo, currently in the possession of Ms. Wang Yurong herself. The photo was taken about 60 years ago when she was young, and she could not recall the name of the shop where it was taken and the name of the photographer.
- Please advise if the above information is sufficient and any other info needed to keep the image. Thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Huiliwang (talk • contribs)
- Thanks @Huiliwang: , the problem is that Commons requires either a license from the copyright holder, or showing that the file is in the public domain. In this case, the copyright holder would probably be the photographer, so it's impossible to get a license. I think for an unpublished anonymous work, the US copyright will expire 120 years after the photo was taken, so it won't be public domain for a long time. --ghouston (talk) 11:48, 16 May 2016 (UTC)

- I agree the template is confusing. Let me try to clarify the situation. Russia inheritated the Soviet copyright approach concerning films. In Soviet Russia, the copyright to the film belonged to the studio (art. 486 Civil code RSFSR [10]). In practical terms, Vertov's own copyright as director, initially set to 10 years from the first publication [11] [12], was "fobbed off" (per Michiel Elst"s terms in Copyright, Freedom of Speech, and Cultural Policy in the Russian Federation, p. 409) by later laws which assigned film copyright to the studio. In others words, the copyright on the film as a whole was owned by the studio, Kul'tkino, while individual contributors to the film, such as "the author of the script, the composer, director, chief cameraman, artistic director, and the authors of other works which constitute a component part... own the copyright in each of their works" (Jove v. Berov [13]), i.e. for a separate and distinct use. The copyright law of 1993 confirmed the studios were the copyright owners for the films, with a term of 50 years from publication (Elst, p.529). The decree of May 1998 clarified the studios were only "legal right holders of the cinematographic work" and confirmed the term of 50 years from publication (Elst 531-532), which was again confirmed with a maximum as 50 years from publication for the authors, if this term predates 1993, and 70 years from publication for the studios by the Federal Law No. 231-FZ of December 18, 2006 referred to above, with the following provision : "The copyright of legal entities which has arisen before August 3, 1993, that is, before the entry into force of Law of the Russian Federation No. 5351-I of July 9, 1993 on the Copyright and the Adjacent Rights, shall be terminated after the expiry of seventy years as from the day of the legally justified publication of the work... For the purposes of their application, such legal entities shall be seen as the authors of the works." — Racconish ☎ 17:11, 12 May 2016 (UTC)

- Studios had become authors of non-amateur films since Jan.1, 1929 (see s:ru:Постановление ВЦИК и СНК РСФСР от 8.10.1928 об авторском праве) only. Previous legislation have not such regulation. Alex Spade (talk) 16:45, 13 May 2016 (UTC)
- Alex Spade, thank you for explaining your point of view. Your comment that "previous legislation have not such regulation" requires some discussion. Prior situation cannot be described as the assignment of copyright to the authors, in the sense of the current Russian copyright law instead of the studios, as you seem to imply. In Soviet Russia prior to the 1925 copyright law there was no provision for copyright on films, in a context of nationalization of the film production by Lenin's decree of August 27, 1919 and further expropriation of assets, creation of Goskino and state control of film distribution. Movies, in particular propaganda movies like this one, were produced following Government's orders and financed by Government's budget. According to Michiel Elst, "films were for the first time mentioned as subject matter of copyright" in the Fundamentals of Copyright Law of January 30, 1925 (Copyright, Freedom of Speech, and Cultural Policy in the Russian Federation, p.75). Yet, art. 2 of these Fundamentals referred only to scripts of cinematographic works having the characteristics of an independant work. In any case the 1925 copyright law postdates Leninskaya kino-pravda and the exception for an independant script would not have been applicable. As expressed by Dmitry Golovanov, the "point of departure" for the application of copyright to films in modern Russia was "the principle that legal entities were recognised as authors of cinematographic works" [14]. In any case, either we consider that cinematographic works created by Soviet governmental entities prior to the application of the 1928 copyright law are in the public domain, following Vladimir Entine for whom works which have not been granted protection have fallen in the public domain [15], or we consider that the later copyright laws apply retroactively, in which case this should be analysed as a synthetic work whose copyright belonged to the publishing studio, and has now fallen in the public domain since 70 years from the publication have elapsed, but there is no reason to assume a kind of personal copyright which never existed in Soviet Russia did exist before 1929. — Racconish ☎ 12:56, 14 May 2016 (UTC)

- Due to retroacivity of Law-1993, Code-2006 and Berne Convention it is unimportant in what status work was on moment of puplication (copyrightable or not, object of copyright or not, PD or not). It is unimportant for copyright term - "who is copyright holder?", it is important - "who is author?". Law-1928 (and Code-1964) had changed authorship in the first place, then (right after that) copyright. Decretum-1919 had nationalized means of film production, material form of films, and income. Russian legislation (compare to US-legislation concerning Nazi copyright) did not and does not know about nationalization or seizure of initial author copyrights (it knows about nationalization/seizure of income from copyrights, nationalization/seizure of copyrights delivered to (inherited by) other person or legal entity, and nationalization/seizure of copyrights of legal entity even if it is initial author by law). Moreover in Russian nationalization/seizure changes copyright holder (rights pass to state/government), it does not move work to PD-zone. Russian copyright legislation recognizes initial author copyrights of legal entity only if possibility for initial authorship of legal entity has clearly indicated in law (internal or foreign, based on country of origin).
P.S. I did not say or presumed, who is copyright holder of pre-1929-film - as I have said, that is unimportant for copyright term. I did not say or presumed that author of pre-1929-film defined by article 1263 of Code-2006; I presumed that pre-1929-film is work by natural person or group of natural persons created (созданное творческим трудом) this film. For example, Mosfilm is copyright holder of its films since 1924 (by old contracts with initial authors) and since 1929 (as initial author by law). Alex Spade (talk) 19:38, 14 May 2016 (UTC)- First, we cannot say the Bern Convention applies retroactively in Russia. The Russian Government has expressly clarified the opposite when entering the Convention : see Decree No. 1224 of November 3, 1994 and Berne Notification No. 162. Second, we cannot say "it is unimportant in what status work was on moment of publication". Article 5 of Federal Law No. 231-FZ of December 18, 2006 says the opposite : "The author of a work or another initial right holder shall be identified in conformity with the legislation operating as at the moment of creating the work". As I said, prior to the 1928 copyright law which assigned film copyright to studios, there was no recognition of copyright on films made in Soviet Russia, hence no initial copyright holder, in a context where this was a non-issue, as the cinema industry had been nationalised. Third, it is quite ironical (or maybe simply anachronical) to have such a discussion about Dziga Vertov who advocated the use of documentary for Bolshevik propaganda and claimed the exact opposite of personal authorship, the collective and participative nature of the "Cine Eyes" (kinoks) producing the Kino-Pravda and beeing collectively the authors-creators of their film-objects. In Vertov's own words :
The Goskino kinoks’ cell should be regarded as one of the factories in which the raw material supplied by kinok-observers is made into film-objects. The Goskino kinoks’ cell should also be regarded as an educational, modelworkshop through which young Pioneer and Komsomol film groups will be drawn into production work. Specifically, all groups of kinok-observers will be drawn into the production of future kino-eye series. They will be the author-creators of all subsequent film-objects. This departure from authorship by one person or a group of persons to mass authorship will, in our view, accelerate the destruction of bourgeois, artistic cinema and its attributes: the poser-actor, fairy-tale script, those costly toys–sets, and the director-high priest.
— Dziga Vertov, Kino-Eye, quoted by MacKay [16]

Russian copyright legislation recognizes initial author copyrights of legal entity only if possibility for initial authorship of legal entity has clearly indicated in law (internal or foreign, based on country of origin).
- Law-1993 and Code-2006 were and are retroactive by theirself for works published in Russia or by Russian citizens (this retroactivity was confirm by the Supreme Court and Supreme Arbitration Court). And, your knowledge RF-reservation for Berne Convention (made de-facto only for works published outside Russia by foreigners) are outdated - it had been recalled in December 2012.
Films are clearly mentioned by Soviet Copyright Law 1925. Moreover, lack of direct mention for concrete kind/type of work in copyrightable section of law is not problem for copyrightability - the foundation for copyrightability (confirmed by the Supreme Court and Supreme Arbitration Court) is creativity (by human, not animal or automatic machine) and originality. The Article 5 from Law 231-FZ assists only in identification of author and copyrightholder, it does not tie copyrightability to publication time. For example, in Code-1964 unsigned photoworks were uncopyrightable, but they are copyrightable in modern Russian copyright law - both old and modern ones.
And nationalization/seizure in RF/RSFSR is change of owner (from someone to state/government), not transition to PD-zone. Alex Spade (talk) 17:54, 17 May 2016 (UTC)- Apologies for my mistake concerning the recent modification regarding the Berne convention. I still think we should leave aside the 1925 copyright law which is irrelevant. My understanding is that in all cases the current Russian copyright law considers the persons as the authors but acknowledges the fact that under the Soviet copyright law, the copyrights of films were all transferred to the studios, which became the copyright holders. Be it in 1928 or in 1964, the studio became the copyright holder for this film prior to 1993, which means article 6 of Federal Law No. 231-FZ of December 18, 2006 should be applied : "The copyright of legal entities which has arisen before August 3, 1993, that is, before the entry into force of Law of the Russian Federation No. 5351-I of July 9, 1993 on the Copyright and the Adjacent Rights, shall be terminated after the expiry of seventy years as from the day of the legally justified publication of the work [...] Towards the corresponding legal relations shall be applied by analogy the rules of Part Four of the Code. For the purposes of their application, such legal entities shall be seen as the authors of the works". — Racconish ☎ 20:14, 17 May 2016 (UTC)
- Article 6 of Law 231-FZ (and similar article from previous Law-1993) says only about the initial copyright of legal entities as initial author by law (not just initial copyright holder by law), it is not about any copyright of legal entities and it is not even about the initial copyright of legal entities as employer (for work by hire) - these common misunderstandings/delusions of this article explains repeatedly in Russian jurist commentaries, supported by courts decision, because copyright terms depend on author data (author can be legal entity), not his employer or holder of his/its copyright. Moreover since Law-1928 (since Jan.1, 1929) studio had become author (again, not just initial copyright holder by law) for new films, not old ones. Alex Spade (talk) 20:48, 17 May 2016 (UTC)
- Where do you see in this article 6 that it relates only to the initial copyright ? It says quite clearly "the copyright which has arisen before 1993". The new copyright law always considers the persons as the initial authors but recognizes the fact the copyright has been assigned to moral persons under Soviet law. — Racconish ☎ 21:14, 17 May 2016 (UTC)
- Besides text article I have read Russian jurist commentaries, supported by courts decision about it. Similar problem we had many years ago with GSE and many Soviet posters. Alex Spade (talk) 21:24, 17 May 2016 (UTC)
- I know better" is not the best of arguments here . My understanding is Michiel Elst's Copyright, Freedom of Speech, and Cultural Policy in the Russian Federation is considered as a reliable source on the subject. He says clearly, in particular p. 586, that the physical persons are now considered as the original authors but they were assumed to have transferred their copyright to the producer who was the copyright holder as of 1993 if the work had not fallen in the public domain. — Racconish ☎ 21:35, 17 May 2016 (UTC)
- In the cases I'm familiar with, whether or not the author has transferred their copyright to the producer, a life+n copyright duration is still based on the life of the author. Elst may say that clearly, but it's not clear that is relevant.--Prosfilaes (talk) 04:42, 18 May 2016 (UTC)
- The best juridical commentaries (on my opinion) - why Article 6 of Law 231-FZ (and similar article from previous Law-1993) says only about the initial copyright of legal entities as authors, you can find in Gavroliv's (one of the lead Russian jurist about copyrights) commentaries to Law-1993 and Code-2006 (for example Gavrilov Eh.P., Moskva, Ekzamen, 2005, p.360-362 in the case of Law-1993 - the raw full text of his commentaries can be found here, see p.12-14 near the end of text - start with Russian phrase 12. Пункты 4 и 5 относятся к тем случаям). As I said, there had been similar problem with misunderstanding of direct reading of these articles in ru-wiki, en-wiki and commons had early with GSE, posters and many other works created by hire (служебная работа) or by contract (авторский договор), which copyrights also belong to legal entities but do not fall under Article 6. Alex Spade (talk) 09:00, 18 May 2016 (UTC)
- Let me quote also Golavanov, whose articles on the subject have been published by Iris, the WIPO publication. In "The Legal Status of the Producer of Audiovisual Works in the Russian Federation" published in 2009 he writes :
According to Soviet law, legal persons could be considered as original authors. This approach caused a number of problems concerning rights in films produced by Soviet studios. The Soviet studios were treated as holders of authors’ rights according to Article 486 of the Civil Code of [1964]. The authors’ rights of legal persons had an eternal term of protection (Article 498). The rights could be transferred by an agreement to a party or to the studio’s successor in the case of the motion picture producing studio being reorganised, or to the State if the studio was liquidated. Often, however,intellectual property rights had not been recorded on a company’s balance sheet of intangible assets. The reason for this was the fact that movies were produced on the basis of governmental orders and with State funding. Governmental authorities expected that they held all rights to the products of these studios, although according to the civil law they were not allowed to hold any proprietary (economic) rights (including intellectual property rights). Besides, according to the Civil Code 1964 a script writer, a composer, a director, a producer, a director of photography and other authors who contributed to the movie-making process had the rights to separate use of their works – that is, rights to use their parts of the whole product [...] In parallel to this development, the Government passed a number of resolutions through which all rights to movies and original copies of the works were transferred to the governmental archives organisations (foundations). At the same time, some authors who had participated in a movie-making process claimed to be the proper rightsholders. They referred to the Copyright Statute 1993 as the basis of their claim. Resultantly, a very tangled jurisprudence emerged. [...] In 2004 an amendment to the Copyright Statute 1993 was introduced, providing a limited term of protection of authors’ rights belonging to legal persons. Its duration is 70 years, starting from the date of publication of a work [...] The Consummation Statute of Part Four of the Civil Code confirmed this rule.
— Dmitry Golovanov [17]
- Let me quote also Golavanov, whose articles on the subject have been published by Iris, the WIPO publication. In "The Legal Status of the Producer of Audiovisual Works in the Russian Federation" published in 2009 he writes :
- The best juridical commentaries (on my opinion) - why Article 6 of Law 231-FZ (and similar article from previous Law-1993) says only about the initial copyright of legal entities as authors, you can find in Gavroliv's (one of the lead Russian jurist about copyrights) commentaries to Law-1993 and Code-2006 (for example Gavrilov Eh.P., Moskva, Ekzamen, 2005, p.360-362 in the case of Law-1993 - the raw full text of his commentaries can be found here, see p.12-14 near the end of text - start with Russian phrase 12. Пункты 4 и 5 относятся к тем случаям). As I said, there had been similar problem with misunderstanding of direct reading of these articles in ru-wiki, en-wiki and commons had early with GSE, posters and many other works created by hire (служебная работа) or by contract (авторский договор), which copyrights also belong to legal entities but do not fall under Article 6.

- In the cases I'm familiar with, whether or not the author has transferred their copyright to the producer, a life+n copyright duration is still based on the life of the author. Elst may say that clearly, but it's not clear that is relevant.--Prosfilaes (talk) 04:42, 18 May 2016 (UTC)
- I know better" is not the best of arguments here . My understanding is Michiel Elst's Copyright, Freedom of Speech, and Cultural Policy in the Russian Federation is considered as a reliable source on the subject. He says clearly, in particular p. 586, that the physical persons are now considered as the original authors but they were assumed to have transferred their copyright to the producer who was the copyright holder as of 1993 if the work had not fallen in the public domain. — Racconish ☎ 21:35, 17 May 2016 (UTC)
- Besides text article I have read Russian jurist commentaries, supported by courts decision about it. Similar problem we had many years ago with GSE and many Soviet posters. Alex Spade (talk) 21:24, 17 May 2016 (UTC)
- Where do you see in this article 6 that it relates only to the initial copyright ? It says quite clearly "the copyright which has arisen before 1993". The new copyright law always considers the persons as the initial authors but recognizes the fact the copyright has been assigned to moral persons under Soviet law. — Racconish ☎ 21:14, 17 May 2016 (UTC)
- Article 6 of Law 231-FZ (and similar article from previous Law-1993) says only about the initial copyright of legal entities as initial author by law (not just initial copyright holder by law), it is not about any copyright of legal entities and it is not even about the initial copyright of legal entities as employer (for work by hire) - these common misunderstandings/delusions of this article explains repeatedly in Russian jurist commentaries, supported by courts decision, because copyright terms depend on author data (author can be legal entity), not his employer or holder of his/its copyright. Moreover since Law-1928 (since Jan.1, 1929) studio had become author (again, not just initial copyright holder by law) for new films, not old ones. Alex Spade (talk) 20:48, 17 May 2016 (UTC)
- Apologies for my mistake concerning the recent modification regarding the Berne convention. I still think we should leave aside the 1925 copyright law which is irrelevant. My understanding is that in all cases the current Russian copyright law considers the persons as the authors but acknowledges the fact that under the Soviet copyright law, the copyrights of films were all transferred to the studios, which became the copyright holders. Be it in 1928 or in 1964, the studio became the copyright holder for this film prior to 1993, which means article 6 of Federal Law No. 231-FZ of December 18, 2006 should be applied : "The copyright of legal entities which has arisen before August 3, 1993, that is, before the entry into force of Law of the Russian Federation No. 5351-I of July 9, 1993 on the Copyright and the Adjacent Rights, shall be terminated after the expiry of seventy years as from the day of the legally justified publication of the work [...] Towards the corresponding legal relations shall be applied by analogy the rules of Part Four of the Code. For the purposes of their application, such legal entities shall be seen as the authors of the works". — Racconish ☎ 20:14, 17 May 2016 (UTC)
- This cite is about films published after 1964 (only Code-1964 is mentioned). There is no doubt that authors of whose films (and films published after 1928) are studios (from copyright law POV). Moreover first clause from your cite says clearly about "legal persons... as original authors" (initial authors). The Supreme Court deprecated change of authorship by law change, it is true both for film authors 1929-1992(3) (in contrast to Law-1993 and Code-2006) and for films authors pre-1928 (in contrasrt to Law-1928 and Code-1964).

- About your claim that "this cite is about films published after 1964 (only Code-1964 is mentioned)", allow me another quote :
When the Civil Code of the RSFSR went into effect in 1964, it was decided that its norms would be applied to relationships which had arisen earlier.

- Author of work defined by law effective on moment of creation of work - The Supreme Court, November 23, 2015. Code-1964 can be retroactive in some aspects, but not in aspect of authorship. Alex Spade (talk) 12:59, 18 May 2016 (UTC)
- Your last contribution is so short I don't understand it and the link does not seem to produce anything related to our subject. Do you know of any post-2008 jurisprudence relating to pre 1928 films ? — Racconish ☎ 15:44, 18 May 2016 (UTC)
- You do not use Google translate? Ohhh... Ok. On this page is stated that you can view respective document without subscriptions between 20:00-24:00 MSK on workday (and at any time on the Russian days off work (generally these are Saturdays and Sundays) and holidays) or you can freely order respective document on your e-mail (delivery time is about several hours). In this document The Supreme Court looks into case when current and old copyright laws have different statement about authorship, and define that law effective on moment of creation of work must be used.
And lets play another game, because free status must be proved. Do your know of any post-2006/08 (or post-1993 at least) publication relating to free status of pre-1928 films (not about history of Russian copyright law, but about current state of old works).
