2016 Iranian election poster and art photos

[edit]

This is sort of ironical, since less than a day ago I was going to defend other pictures from Tasnim News by User:GTVM92, and now I am nominating a bunch for deletion ... but this is a different issue!

Specifically, these are photos by the Tasnim News Agency of this week's Iranian elections. Unfortunately, these photos are focused on the candidates' election posters; except File:2016 Iran election in Mashhad (2).jpg which includes important election wall graffiti. There is no Commons:Freedom_of_panorama#Iran, so even though Tasnim does put all its content under Creative Commons Attribution, I don't think they have the right to release the candidates' posters.

If others disagree, I will be only too happy to be wrong and have the photos kept.

I approve @GRuban: explanation. Thank you. We can't publish pictures of posters and brochures in Iran.Saman-1984 (talk) 22:03, 26 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
As Tasnimnews is not a government-owned websit, it is not banned for it under Iranian electoral law. GTVM92 (talk)
