Files in Category:Shenyang Metro Station Name Calligraphy

[edit]

No FoP for indoor places as {{FoP-China}} specifically requires outdoor place. Calligraphy is protected in China per COM:TOO China. These photos all include calligraphy created by living or recently died (much shorter than 50 years) persons.

@JWilz12345: do you still think these could be undeleted with the new copyright law change? Looking at the new law there is no mention about calligraphy. They are still protected per COM:TOO China. Unfortunaly the only way to get them undeleted is to wait for a very long time for the files to be in the public domain. Eti15TrSf (talk) 06:18, 25 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Eti15TrSf: is calligraphy considered an artistic work, a literary work, or other work of some sort? JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 07:01, 25 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@JWilz12345: I can't really answer that question, but I feel that keeping these files could be problematic. Its possible that the intent of creating these works is to say the metro station name in an artistic form. The reason why I say it could be problematic is someone could see that files and claim that they violate COM:TOO China. It clearly says there that most calligraphy letters are protected by copyright. I personally feel that the safer route is to wait until these enter the Public Domain, so nobody would be able to question how it violates TOO China.

I think these images might be kept under the current FoP of China. As written on Template:FoP-China work may be used ... provided that the name of the author and the title of the work shall be indicated. In the listing of images by Wcam, many of the authors name are given. Can somebody with sufficient knowledge of the language please include name of the authors and titles of the work on the file pages? Can you please indicate which of the list can be kept? Ping to admins with the zh language: @Jusjih: , @King of Hearts: @Minorax: , @Mys 721tx: , @Shizhao: . Thanks, Elly (talk) 21:33, 23 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
