[edit]

Publication date not clear 117.247.188.21 10:28, 4 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@117.247.188.21, I am not sure whether it is worth responding to an anonymous IP address as the above IP user seems to have flagged several deletion requests without enough understanding of copyrights. Request admins to clarify the same. This file is taken from DLI which follows Indian Copyright Act as mentioned on its web page. The year of publication has now been updated. --Arjunaraoc (talk) 09:54, 5 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  •  strong keep: I wanted to add some further argument to the Arjunarao's plea. poetess Thallapaka thimmakka, who wrote this book, time dates back to 15th century, and so text is copyright free according to the legislature of any country. Added to that, preface also been written by Veturi prabhakara sastry who has been died 60 years ago, and his writings also became copyright free according to Indian copyright laws. So, I request admins to remove this deletion request. --Pavan santhosh.s (talk) 14:03, 5 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

w:en:Tallapaka Tirumalamma lived in the 15th century, certainly PD. On page three, lower left, you find a date: 18.3.1950. I assume (confirmation needed!) that this is a preface stating the publication date. Summing up: PD-India, because original from 15th century, reprint/republished 1950. --Hedwig in Washington (mail?) 05:39, 26 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
@User:Hedwig in Washington, Thanks for the summary. The date you are referring is the editor's message for the version that is printed. --Arjunaraoc (talk) 07:56, 27 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
