January 31

The only source this offers is "self made" but the image looks professional in nature, like a promomotional shot taken for the club's website or something like that. Without further information (such as when he took it, where, was it during a autographing or something), I say we should delete now lest there are outstanding copyright issues. hbdragon88 (talk) 00:17, 31 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It's an encyclopedia article about democratic processes in Kerala, but it's not properly in Wikipedia if it's uploaded as a PDF file. Its text was also recently posted by the same author as several proper articles (see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Accountability mechanisms in local governments in Kerala). In its current format though it's unencyclopedic and orphaned. • Anakin ^{(contribs • complaints)} 01:07, 31 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep Wikipedia will soon be a wasteland if all public sculpture in the United States post 1923 is not usable. Carptrash (talk) 02:20, 3 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  - Like all copyrighted art, each individual image must be justified. Here this is not even being used in an article page, which violates WP:NONFREE. Wikipedia isn't a "wasteland" because we follow WP:NONFREE for 2D art, and it won't be for 3D art either. Calliopejen1 (talk) 15:30, 4 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  - Also, this sculptor made art before 1923, which can be used to illustrate the article w/o any coypright concerns. Calliopejen1 (talk) 15:32, 4 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

derivative work of copyrighted sculpture Calliopejen1 (talk) 18:29, 31 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The subject of this photograph is not under any copyrighted as it is a public monument in the Nation's capitol. I took this photo myself of the public monument. I would appreciate any insight on this matter of how a public monument, owned by the public, could be copyrighted. Again, the photograph is my work. Many thanks. User:Danvera —Preceding comment was added at 20:07, 4 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
The problem is that there is actually a good chance the sculpture is covered by copyright. Unless the sculptor explicitly transferred his rights to his commissioner (here, the federal government) in a written agreement, the sculptor continues to own the rights to a commissioned work. I guess I don't know enough about government practices to know whether this happened, but the federal government routinely allows artists to continue to hold copyrights in cases like stamps. Does anyone else have any way we could investigate this? Calliopejen1 (talk) 21:33, 4 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
