This file was initially tagged by ديفيد عادل وهبة خليل 2 as Copyvio (copyvio) and the most recent rationale was: Non-free web screenshot
Converted by me to DR, as uploader objected with the rationale "OPPOSED TO SPEEDY DELETION: Author is U.S. government employee using the official government Twitter account". -- Túrelio (talk) 18:37, 16 October 2018 (UTC)
- Keep. As uploader, I noted the tweet is not subject to copyright for reasons quoted by Turelio above. For confirmation that the work is, as required, "a work prepared by an officer or employee of the United States Government as part of that person’s official duties", see reporter's question and tweet-author S. H. Sanders's response at https://web.archive.org/web/20180626001029/https://www.bostonglobe.com/news/politics/2018/06/25/here-how-sarah-sanders-addressed-being-kicked-out-restaurant-during-her-press-briefing-today/JONbbvNUXY4XGg2wi64xoN/story.html : "REPORTER: “Can you talk about why you tweeted from your official account about the episode that you had the restaurant on Friday night?” — RCraig09 (talk) 19:29, 16 October 2018 (UTC)
Delete @Túrelio and RCraig09: The license is not suitable for the site because it is not owned by the government ديفيد عادل وهبة خليل 2 (talk) 06:25, 17 October 2018 (UTC)
- • Reply: Formal ownership of the medium on which the work is recorded is irrelevant. Under U.S. law:
- — "Copyright protection subsists... in original works of authorship" (17 U.S. Code § 102).
- — "Copyright protection... is not available for any work of the United States Government" (17 U.S. Code § 105).
- — "A “work of the United States Government” is a work prepared by an officer or employee of the United States Government as part of that person’s official duties." (17 U.S. Code § 101).
- It's about the work, not the website! The work would fall under § 105 if it were written on Twitter, in a newspaper op-ed, or on a stone tablet! —RCraig09 (talk) 14:28, 17 October 2018 (UTC)

It may also contain trademarked logos, which are likely not affiliated with Wikipedia. It is believed that the use of a limited number of such screenshots" ديفيد عادل وهبة خليل 2 (talk) 14:51, 17 October 2018 (UTC)
- Reply to @ديفيد عادل وهبة خليل 2: : I now appreciate you were protecting Twitter's possible copyright, not Sanders'.
- Does this new version deal with your objections? It removes anything that might be reasonably be subject to copyright. —RCraig09 (talk) 15:30, 17 October 2018 (UTC)
- Delete raw text, image icon adds nothing, out of scope.--BevinKacon (talk) 21:15, 19 March 2019 (UTC)
