No indication of early enough PUBLICATION to be PD. (Even if author died in 1937, there must be evidence of early enough publication, because if it was published posthumously, 70-year countdown begins then, and we have no proof it was published over 70 years ago. "Internet" is not sufficient publication source!) PlanespotterA320 (talk) 21:21, 18 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • You are right, this is a serious question.
  • From the mass media articles I know that all these photos were found many years after Ilf's copyright has expired, so they happened to be already in public domain when found. Ilf's daughter always complained to press that she cannot gain any money from her father's creative works because of PD status. --PereslavlFoto (talk) 21:57, 18 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    • If the photos were first published long after the author died, then they're not PD. We need a SPECIFIC (pre-1946) publication date for the photos.--PlanespotterA320 (talk) 21:22, 20 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
      • They were first published after the copyright expired, when they were PD already. --PereslavlFoto (talk) 17:13, 21 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
        • Copyright countdown begins AFTER publication in Russia.--PlanespotterA320 (talk) 13:59, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
          • False! Copyright countdown begins after publication in Russia ONLY IF this publication was in time of copyright protection. If the years of copyright protection have passed, and the work was published afterwards, no copyright protections appears. Check the 1281 article of the Civil Code: «при условии, что произведение было обнародовано в течение семидесяти лет после смерти автора». This photo was published after the stated years. --PereslavlFoto (talk) 18:00, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Deleted: per nomination. COM:L asks for "information sufficient for others to verify the license status even when not required by the license itself or by copyright laws" and COM:EVID says "In all cases the uploader must provide appropriate evidence to demonstrate either that the file is in the public domain." (underline added) The current source of merely "Интернет" (Internet) is entirely inadequate; the image is effectively unsourced and without support for any PD claim. --Эlcobbola talk 22:25, 16 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
