[edit]

No FOP in Iran + the building was apparently built recently Petrus Adamus (talk) 19:23, 3 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Not every building is protected by copyright. Just buildings that their utilitarian aspects are overshadowed by their artistic aspects may meet the criteria for copyright protection. AMERICOPHILE 19:38, 3 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Could you please mention some rule describing the necessity of overshadowing artistic aspects? Unfortunately, I don't understand Persian, but in the English translation of the Iranian Copyright Law from January 12, 1970, there is written in the Part I Article 2 (paragraph 7): Works protected by copyright law are as follows: Architectural works, designs, sketches and buildings. I don't see any dependency on an artistic content or value taught there. Probably, we are not allowed to place photos of recent Iranian buildings here on Commons without explicite permission according the prescription. --Petrus Adamus (talk) 19:53, 3 December 2011 (UTC) Contribuition [1] copied from [2]. --Petrus Adamus (talk) 20:36, 3 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
The law may have changed drastically since the 1979 revolution. WhisperToMe (talk) 23:42, 3 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
According to the Wikipedia article it is still valid, just the protection term was prolonged up to 50 years. --Petrus Adamus (talk) 19:16, 5 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Deleted: Unfortunately, per discussion. Architectural merit is evident. 99of9 (talk) 12:26, 10 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Unfortunately, respecting literally the Iranian copyright rules, no pictures of newer buildings in Iran can stay on Commons without explicit author's permission, all of them should be deleted analogically. --Petrus Adamus (talk) 14:08, 10 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
