Sorry to say, but I'm just not seeing the claim of this being PD anywhere on the source's website. Courcelles 01:21, 13 August 2014 (UTC)
- keep. The source website ( http://www.mathunion.org/general/prizes/2014/ ) states literally: Below is information about the awardees. The texts describing their work is copyright free and can be used in publications. This also applies to the photos of the prize winners below.--Kmhkmh (talk) 02:29, 13 August 2014 (UTC)
- Keep. Courcelles, please correct your deletion request. This is the first woman in history to receive the Fields Medal. Someone might care about that but be put off by the deletion template. -SusanLesch (talk) 03:32, 13 August 2014 (UTC)
- Keep The language of the website tripped me up initially to but they are clearly releasing copyright (eg PD) for the photos. --Masem (talk) 03:33, 13 August 2014 (UTC)
Deleted: I'm deleting this because it is not at all clear that the Mathunion's statement is true. First, everything has a copyright, so strictly speaking it starts out incorrect. However, we could read it simply as a way of saying that the image is PD. However, where did the MathUnion get the image? How is it that they own the copyright. That took me to the home page of Stanford University, where Mirzakhani is a professor (http://www.stanford.edu/) Lo and behold, the image is top center on Stanford's home page, with a copyright notice at the bottom. So, I ask, when Stanford needed an image to illustrate their home page, are they likely to have used one from MathUnion or from their own files? While the former is possible, it's much more likely that MathUnion used a Stanford image and has put an incorrect release on it.
Stanford might well be willing to give us a license via OTRS for its distinguished faculty member's WP:EN page, but until it does this is a {{Speedy}}. Jim . . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 10:16, 20 August 2014 (UTC)
