File:Feynman.jpg

[edit]

Source and license are missleading. The image on the nobel website seems to be a cutout of this image, copyrighted by Caltech, USA] (another found). "Photographer: Photo by Clemens of Copenhagen, Pasadena. Physics."

It is clearly not a Swedish photo and therefore I doubt that in this case the Swedish PD license could be valid. Raymond 15:00, 12 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

 Keep First published in Sweden. /Pieter Kuiper (talk) 23:24, 13 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Why should this be PD than? Do we have an evidence of this claim? It seems to be an US image, not as Swedish image. I would be glad if we could keep this image but I do not see under which circumstances. Raymond 07:00, 14 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Published in "Les Prix Nobel en 1965". The series is always illustrated in the same format: a portrait of the laureate with his or her signature. Like here. Also the Caltech site states that this is the formal Nobel portrait. /Pieter Kuiper (talk) 07:20, 14 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Delete per nom. The subject was an American. His enwp bio does not mention a trip to Sweden to be photographed. If this photo was taken in the US and published in Sweden, US copyright law would apply in Florida, and the photographer cannot possibly have died over 70 years ago as the photo was only taken 45 years ago. The Nobel Foundation may have been playing fast & loose with attribution and licensing for photos it was republishing.   — Jeff G. ツ 05:03, 18 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Delete but FIRST move it to en.wiki please. To Pieter; if it was first published in Sweden, where's the evidence of that? Further, as provided by Raymond in the second link [1], this image is copyrighted by CalTech, all rights reserved. There's no evidence anywhere that this has been released under a free license. --Hammersoft (talk) 17:10, 25 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
CalTech says that this is the official Nobel portrait, which means that it was first published in "Les Prix Nobel". Copyright has expired. /Pieter Kuiper (talk) 14:37, 27 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
They are guilty of en:Copyfraud. /Pieter Kuiper (talk) 13:23, 28 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Deleted, probable American photograph, thus American copyright applies. Kameraad Pjotr 18:12, 30 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
