Ever or never?[edit]

Resolved

Hi! The article says

Excepted from the copyright restorations are only foreign works where the copyright was never owned or administered by the "Alien Property Custodian," if (...)

But the 17 USC 104A(a)(2) says [1]:

EXCEPTION Any work in which the copyright was ever owned or administered by the Alien Property Custodian (...)

I'm not a native English speaker, but it seems it's the exact opposite, no? --GaAs (d) 12:45, 20 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, you're correct. I see you went ahead and made the fix on the same day you commented. Thanks! —mjb (talk) 04:01, 27 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Films previously in the public domain[edit]

Is this section an exhaustive list, or just the most notable films? —mjb (talk) 03:57, 27 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

It is incomplete. For example, see this court case where someone was fined for violating the copyright of 62 Mexican films which were previously in the public domain in the United States. --Stefan2 (talk) 22:11, 14 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Expired copyright[edit]

"Also affected are works which did have previous U.S. copyright, but which entered the public domain due to a failure to renew the copyright."

According to paragraph 1 of Article 18 the convention applies to works still under copyright in the country of origin.

Paragraph 2 states that if copyright has expired where it is claimed (in this case, presumably the US), it is not restored. This appears to conflict with URAA if the article is correct.

Paragraph 3 mentions "provisions contained special conventions". Are there any that would cause URAA not to conflict with the convention? Peter James (talk) 10:52, 2 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
