Old photo, is this Shirazibustan (talk · contribs)'s self-photographed photo? More likely not. It may pass {{PD-Kuwait}} but not PD-US; it may have been under copyright in Kuwait on the COM:URAA date for Kuwaiti works. Additionally, the claimed year 1966 may not be the year when this photo was first published to public. No complete documentation of source of the photo and/or author of the photo.

- Do we have evidence, that the uploader did not take the image, Tineye looked at 25 billion images and found no match on the Internet. --RAN (talk) 23:15, 18 February 2023 (UTC)
- You won't find an exact match, the picture has been resting with me for years. Shirazibustan (talk) 09:48, 28 February 2023 (UTC)
- Comment The uploader being around 20 in 1966 would not be impossible, they'd be close to 80 if that were the case. Absense evidence of copyvio, I think we can COM:AGF that the uploader took the image. Abzeronow (talk) 17:51, 19 February 2023 (UTC)
- As noted in the comments elsewhere, I was 13 years old at the time! Shirazibustan (talk) 09:47, 28 February 2023 (UTC)
- Info The church is the Ahmadi Tamil Church, which opened in 1976. https://ahmaditamilchurch.com/wp/ Kuwait has no commercial FOP COM:FOP Kuwait and since Kuwait has a copyright term of 50 PMA,
Deletesince photograph violates architect's copyright. (EDIT: OK, striked delete vote for now. https://www.stpaulskuwait.com/our-history/ This is the Saint Paul's Anglican Church building. "The current building was originally built by the Kuwait Oil Company as part of its commitment to meet the spiritual needs of the workforce, the church was consecrated and dedicated by the then Bishop of Jerusalem Weston Henry Stewart on November 16th, 1956. St. Paul’s Church was chosen as the name for the new church because St. Paul was the only apostle who is named in the New Testament as having spent time in Arabia." )
