Files in Category:The sea; ideas and observations on progress in the study of the seas (1963)

[edit]

This is 1963 work, seemingly published in the US and UK given the publisher information in the first few pages of the PDF. It's too recent to be out of copyright in the UK, and would only be out of copyright in the US if the copyright wasn't renewed. The front pages state "All rights reserved" but no outright (C) mark is present. The PDF was erroneously marked as PD-US-Gov due to the way the harmonization bot was written. The images cannot necessarily be treated as "free from restrictions" (Aside: The issue of a potentially erroneous deceleration of "free from restrictions" due to incomplete, inaccurate, or mis-indicated meta-data seems to be an issue with a number of IA Flikr stream related image DR's recently, and as such I would suggest a very much fuller review of all images using that source.)

  • An “all rights reserved” notice is not, to my knowledge, acceptable as a determination of copyright in the U.S. This work was not registered; so, assuming that it was not copyrighted, it is in the public domain in the U.S. TE(æ)A,ea. (talk) 13:00, 11 January 2021 (UTC).[reply]

Kept: no valid reason for deletion - No notice -- "All rights reserved" is not a valid notice. .     Jim . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 23:13, 8 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
