As there is no freedom of panorama in Russia, it's not self-evident that this image is free enough to live on commons. A cursory check did not find the architect's name or the date of construction. Style again seems quite modern. Angus McLellan (Talk) 13:42, 7 September 2008 (UTC)
- Delete along with all other photos in Category:Embassies of Romania (including the US one) as the building is located on Romanian territory under internationa law, and Romanian FOP doesn't allow it. Yes, it is getting out of hand. --russavia (talk) 14:00, 7 September 2008 (UTC)
- Is it? If it was simple bloody-mindedness I'd have nominated Image:Kievsky Rail Terminal facade.jpg as well, but I checked that and FOP is irrelevant due to the age of the building, likewise several others of Denghu's recent uploads which ended up here. The ones I've nominated are worth discussing. I could be wrong, it's been known to happen, but my simplistic reading of FOP says there's a problem here. As you know, there are a lot more of these. This is just a sample. Either FOP matters, and there's certainly been enough stuff deleted on FOP grounds before now, or it doesn't. That's for you commons bods to figure out. Throwing your toys out of the pram helps nobody. Neither does getting the burden of proof wrong way round. Angus McLellan (Talk) 14:18, 7 September 2008 (UTC)
Keep I would argue that this is a photo of an embassy. The architecture of the building is not relevant. If these were the offices of an insurance company, the photo would not be here. /Pieter Kuiper (talk) 06:35, 9 September 2008 (UTC)
