Bogus PD reason. Stefan2 (talk) 15:42, 26 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, could you clarify what PD means? Thank you. Waonderer (talk) 00:01, 27 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Delete URL works fine for me. PD = public domain. Works by the government of India are copyrighted (unlike other governments) Commons:Copyright_rules_by_territory/India. I see no FUR that could justify such images. WP requires PD or appropriately licensed images. Lastly, let's tone down the "bogus" assertions. Honest mistakes can be made.

Bogus PD reason. Provided URL gives an error message. Stefan2 (talk) 15:42, 26 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

A 1991 law retroactively restored rights for 50 years after death. — Ирука¹³ 19:46, 26 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Keep File is labeled properly. That law never took effect. Buffs (talk) 20:32, 27 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
addendum, the current law retroactively re-copyrighted a lot of things and established a general copyright term of 50 years after the author's death or 50 years from the publication date of an anonymous work + 4 years if taken during WWII by a soldier (which this was likely). It's still PD be 50/54 years (distinction without a difference) after that date which means it's still PD now. Buffs (talk) 16:20, 28 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
As it was unfree in Russia in 1996, it remains copyrighted in the United States for 95 years from publication, see URAA.

Furthermore, the uploader seems to have taken the file from a random website (which now uses a different photograph) where it doesn't say where the photo was originally published, so the copyright status in Russia is unknown as we don't know whether the author is anonymous or not. --Stefan2 (talk) 20:46, 28 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I'm assessing it's anonymous since we don't know the author. This is the second time that you've assessed an author exists, but you don't know who it is and yet we still have to assume there is one. That's some serious mental gymnastics... BUT, even assessing that it was copyrighted in 1996 and not PD in the US, it is PD in Russia. I still stand by my keep. Worst case, we reassess and use a FUR. Nothing changes other than the documentation. Buffs (talk) 05:56, 29 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

There is no evidence that the photograph was published before 1945. There is no evidence that the author is anonymous - no adequate attempts have been made to find the author and the circumstances of publication. Was this photograph published in a newspaper, printed or archived under the "Секретно" label until 2006? — Ирука¹³ 00:30, 31 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Was the image drawn 15 years after the person's death? A colorized photograph? A drawing from a photograph? Author? Is there really Muhammad Akram Khan in the image? — Ирука¹³ 20:51, 26 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

There is no c:COM:FOP for sculptures for Russia and the US. — Ирука¹³ 22:57, 26 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Info: the original file is in Russian Wikipedia under a "do not move to Commons" tag: w:ru:Файл:Могила генерал-лейтенанта Петра Ляпина.jpg. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 02:26, 2 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, grave honors a Soviet figure who died in 1954. Therefore, it is unlikely that the designer has died for more than 70 years (worse, if this grave was erected before 1978, eligible for the lo-onger US term of 95+1 years per URAA). The non-free tag on the original file at Russian Wikipedia gives a notice that it should only be used locally there, so it should not be imported here.
