The Haibao design is copyrighted. Therefore, all the pictures are clear examples of derivative works. None of the images seems to be a permanent installation, therefore, no freedom of panorama can be claimed. Finally, in all the photographs, Haibao is the main and relevant element, so that de minimis cannot be claimed.

Photos of Copyrighted Characters are OK as Long as Artist Gets Attribution

Under Chinese copyright law, as long as the creator of the Haibao character is attributed in each photo's data file, these photos are legal.

To remove the photos would be in overcautious error.

Please see the update attribution for File:ShanghaiMascot2010.jpg

 Comment Good point. I've got two additional questions:
  • Is the "provided that the name of the author and the title of the work are mentioned" clause fulfilled just by including the attribution in the file or in any use of the image?
At the moment, none of the pictures (but the one you've mentioned) is attributed.

Very brilliant exemple of a contributor seeking reconnaissance of his expertise in copyright law. Five years after the event, this destruction of a collection of popular art in China seems out of the scope of Wikimedia Commons rules protecting the authors. So, all of the "authors", see on the header of Category:Haibao the magical formula to be copied on each item, provided by Johndhackensacker3d. --Wuyouyuan (talk) 02:40, 8 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

See the revised COM:FOP China. A legal reply from the Chinese Supreme Court states that public space works meant to be temporarily exhibited are not "artistic works located or on display in a public place." Since the Haibao is meant to be temporal, it fails to be eligible for court-dependent Chinese freedom of panorama.
