Various post-1945 Australia images[edit]

The following discussion is an archived inquiry of the possible unfree file below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the media's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the discussion was: delete all. If anyone wishes to have any of the images portraying deceased individuals restored to add a fair use rationale instead, feel free to contact me (or request undeletion at WP:REFUND) and specify the exact image(s) you want restored. — ξxplicit 01:02, 26 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

See commons:Commons:Deletion requests/Various PD-Australia after 1945. Please note that some of these images may be eligible for fair use. Magog the Ogre (talk) 06:29, 18 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Please note that some of these images are validly PD-Australia. Pdfpdf (talk) 13:09, 18 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, delete, unfree. Hesperian 11:45, 18 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
What an amazingingly ill-informed and ill-considered comment! Many of them are validly PD-Australia, and hence are not "unfree". Laziness is not sufficient justification for doing anything - only justification for not doing anything. Pdfpdf (talk) 13:09, 18 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Yep, you'll go far in life, going around telling people their comments are ill-informed, ill-considered, and motivated by laziness. Good luck with that. Hesperian 11:08, 19 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  1. Per Wikipedia policy, free files need to be free in the United States. However, it is irrelevant if they are free in any other country or not. The mentioned website only provides the copyright status in Australia which doesn't have to be the same as the copyright status in the United States. In particular, Australian photos taken in 1946 or later are always copyrighted in the United States.
  2. Some photos don't seem to have any real source. At least one of the photos had a dead link, so it wasn't possible to find a year of creation at all. Such photos might be copyrighted in both Australia and the United States. Some of them might be pre-1946 photos, but without more information, we would have to delete them as improperly sourced.
  3. In many cases, there is no evidence of publication. The pre-1946 rule only applies to photos which were published before 1 March 1989 (and not even to all of them). If unpublished, Australian photos are copyrighted for either life+70 years or creation+120 years in the United States, depending on the photographer's employment terms. This also applies to pre-1946 photos.
  4. Some photos may be eligible for fair use. However, per wmf:Resolution:Licensing policy, images under a fair use claim have to be clearly indicated as being kept under a fair use claim. These images are not currently indicated as being kept under a fair use claim. If file information pages and image use are adjusted to fit WP:NFCC (including WP:NFCC#10c), I don't mind keeping images.

  • Uploader possesses a copy of the image, isn't the copyright holder —SpacemanSpiff 11:07, 18 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - the uploader has a shedload of similar problems both here and at Commons. They seem to think that adding a border to a photo makes it "own work", and these issues have been going on for a year or more now. - Sitush (talk) 11:10, 18 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

  • The book was published in 1929, however, this book cover is from a 2006 reprint and therefore without release from the artist (unable to find who it is) this image should be treated as copyrighted. —SpacemanSpiff 12:11, 18 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
