Images with only PD-Yugoslavia tag

[edit]

These files are tagged only with the PD-Yugoslavia template. This template is actually not a free licence template. It's only purpose is to explain that the file once belonged to the government of Yugoslavia, and now belongs to the successor states (Serbia, Montenegro, Croatia, Slovenia, Macedonia and Bosnia and Herzegovina). This template says nothing about the copyright status of the file. Even the template itself states that this template must not be used on its own. But it is used on it's own on all of these nominated files. These files should be deleted as they actually do not have any licence tag, and there is no evidence that they are in public domain. --Vanjagenije (talk) 21:04, 27 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

 Comment: Those photos that were originally created in Slovenia in 1969 or earlier or in Croatia in 1970 or earlier (I have not checked for the rest of the former Yugoslav republics) and are not protected with the publication right (for Slovenia, 25 years; for the rest should be checked) anymore, are per Commons:Copyright rules by territory free for Commons. These only need an appropriate license tag. --Eleassar (t/p) 12:40, 28 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

What tags? All of these photos are actualy copyrighted. Vanjagenije (talk) 16:27, 8 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

 Delete, unless someone provides the appropriate details (year of creation and year of publication) that demonstrate some images are free. --Eleassar (t/p) 08:27, 29 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]


Deleted: Unclear copyright status. Unless we have clear, explicit written/textual, tangible evidence indicating that these files are indeed freely licensed under a Commons compatible license, we cannot host them on Commons FASTILY 21:58, 12 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
