このページでは、削除されたページやファイル(以下、まとめて「ファイル」と呼ぶ)の「削除の撤回」(復帰)を依頼できます。一般の利用者は削除撤回依頼に、理由を添えて削除維持(keep deleted)あるいは削除撤回(=復帰、undelete)の賛否コメントを入れることができます。

このページはウィキペディアの一部ではありません。 ウィキペディアや他のウィキメディアのプロジェクト群において用いられるフリーのメディア・ファイルの保管庫であるウィキメディア・コモンズの内容についてのページです。ウィキメディア・コモンズは百科事典記事を提供しません。 英語版ウィキペディアにおける記事やその他の内容の削除撤回の要請は、英語版の削除のレビュー (deletion review) にて行ってください。(同様に日本語版ウィキペディアの記事等においては日本語版の削除の復帰依頼を利用して下さい。)

ファイルが削除された理由を見い出す

始めに, 削除記録 (deletion log) を確認し、ファイルが削除された理由を見つけ出して下さい。 リンク元 (What links here) を参照し、削除されたファイルについて、どのような議論があったかを確認して下さい。もし、あなたがアップロードしたファイルであれば、あなたのトーク(会話ページ)に削除についての説明がないか確認してください。 次に、削除の方針プロジェクトの守備範囲及びライセンシングを再度確認し、コモンズにおいて、そのファイルが許容されないかもしれない理由を調べてください。

削除された理由が明白でない場合、あるいは削除理由に異論がある場合、削除を行った管理者に連絡を取り説明を求めたり、削除理由を否定する新たな事実を示してください。 実行した管理者本人以外でも、活動中の管理者(管理者リスト(言語別))へ連絡を取っても構いません、もし間違いで削除されていた場合は、事態を修正してくれるでしょう。

削除に対する不服申し立て

削除の方針プロジェクトの守備範囲及びライセンシングに正しく基づいた削除が撤回されることはありません。諸方針の修正はそれぞれのノート(議論ページ)で提案することができます。

そのファイルが著作権侵害案件ではなく、現在のプロジェクトの守備範囲をはずれてもいないと信じる場合:

  • そのファイルを削除した管理者と議論を希望することができます。その管理者に詳しい説明を求めたり、復帰を支持する証拠を示すことができます。
  • だれにも直接連絡することを望まない場合や、連絡した管理者が復帰を断った場合、あるいはもっと多くの人に議論参加してほしい場合、このページで削除撤回依頼を出すことができます。
  • そのファイルが、著作権者によるライセンス許諾の証拠がなくて削除された場合、許諾確認プロセスに従ってください。 すでに許諾確認のプロセスを進めている場合、ここで削除撤回を依頼する必要はありません。もし許諾が規則にかなう形で行われた場合、許諾が確認できた段階でファイルは復帰されるでしょう。現在の案件数とボランティアの人数の関係で、何週間かの時間がかかるかもしれませんので、しばらくお待ちください。
  • 削除された画像の説明に一部の情報が足りない場合、いくつかの質問されることがあります。 通常、このような質問には24時間以内に回答することが期待されます。

一時的な復帰

削除撤回議論を支援するために、あるいはフェアユースを受け入れるプロジェクトへファイルを転送するために、ファイルが一時的に復帰されることがあります。そのような場合は、{{Request temporary undeletion}}(一時的な復帰の依頼) のテンプレートを使って 説明してください。

  1. 削除撤回議論を支援するための一時的復帰の場合、一時復帰が議論に有用な理由を説明してください。あるいは
  2. フェアユースを受け入れるプロジェクトへファイルを転送するための一時的復帰の場合、どのプロジェクトにファイルを転送しようとしているのかを述べて、そのプロジェクトのフェアユース・ステートメントのリンクを貼ってください。

議論の支援のため

一般利用者がファイルを見ないと削除撤回依頼を認めるべきか決めかねる場合、議論を支援するためにファイルを一時的に復帰することができます。ファイルの説明ページ、あるいはその引用で足りる場合は、管理者はファイルの一時復帰を認めないで、代わりに説明ページまたはその引用を提供することがあります。 一時復帰が議論にもたらす有用性よりも他の要因が重要であると感じられる場合は一時復帰依頼が拒否される可能性があります(たとえば、ファイルを一時的にでも復帰することに識別可能な人物の写真に関する相当な懸念がある場合など)。議論を支援するために一時的に復帰されているファイルは、30日後、もしくは復帰依頼が閉じられたとき(のどちらか早い方)に再削除されます。

フェアユースを受け入れるプロジェクトへの転送を可能とするために

英語版ウィキペディアやそのほかのいくつかのウィキメディアのプロジェクトと異なり、コモンズは、フェアユース(Fair use) のようなフリーでないコンテンツを受け入れません。 削除されたファイルが他のウィキメディアプロジェクトのフェアユース要件を満たす場合、そちらへファイルを転送するために一時的復帰を依頼することができます。通常、このような依頼は(議論なく)即時復帰の対応が可能です。 転送目的で即時復帰されたファイルは二日後に削除されます。一時復帰を依頼するときは、どのプロジェクトに転送するるつもりかを明らかにして、そのプロジェクトのフェアユース・ステートメントをリンクしてください。

Images were published after 2015, expiration of posthumous copyright protection of photographer after death, or before 1954. Overly hypothetical doubts by now-banned user who made many overzealous deletion requests. Kges1901 (talk) 18:16, 15 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

 Oppose As I noted in the DR, these are either under URAA copyright, as are all Russian images published after 1942, or, if unpublished until recently, are under copyright in Russia. In either case we cannot keep them. .     Jim . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 16:16, 16 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

We usually assume that old works were published at the time of creation, unless evidence says otherwise. If I understood correctly, the author was a reporter for RIAN, so I see no reason to assume that these pictures were not published at the time. The first file in the list, File:Сессия Верховного Совета СССР первого созыва (2).jpg, is dated 1938. That may not be sufficient for all images, but it seems OK for this one. Yann (talk) 20:10, 16 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Troshkin was a reporter for the newspaper Izvestiya, and his photographs were published at the time in Izvestiya, Krasnaya Zvezda, and other papers. --Kges1901 (talk) 20:19, 16 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Carl Lindberg also made an interesting argument about the country of origin. If these newspapers were distributed in the Soviet Union, they were simultaneously published in all successor nations, and that under the Berne Convention, the shorter term applies. Yann (talk) 20:23, 16 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
These newspapers were distributed across the entire Soviet Union, not just on the territory of the RSFSR. In any case, the definition of publication under Russian copyright law is that the back of the photograph was marked by the artist in the appropriate way, which for war photographs implies that it passed through censorship processes and could be published. Since most of these photographs are not taken from the photographer's negatives, it is reasonable to assume that they were marked on the back, and recently digitized images appeared on the internet after 2014, when the posthumous publication copyright term expired. Kges1901 (talk) 20:32, 16 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Carl Lindberg is not sole in such assumption. But this is just assumption so far, it is not supported by court decisions (of 12-15 post-Soviet states) or jurisprudential literature (as I have known on today, I continue to seek it, to confirm or refute it). As I see such questions in court decisions (of several post-Soviet states) or jurisprudential literature - the concrete Soviet republic is place of publishing (because, the civil legislation was on republican level) or the RF is place of publishing, even if work was published outside of the RSFSR (as USSR-successor on union level). Alex Spade (talk) 10:29, 17 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not sure there is any test case over the Berne definition of "country of origin". The question would not come up internally for Russian law or that of the old republics, most likely. It would only matter in a country outside those which implement the rule of the shorter term, and over a work which that question may be involved. Not sure I know of any, anywhere. But, the Berne Convention is pretty specific in its definition when it comes to works simultaneously published in multiple countries, and that is the definition that Commons follows. Of course, the Soviet Union was not a member, though most all subsequent countries are now. One complication is the U.S. status -- the definition of "source country" for the URAA would follow different logic than Berne, the country of "greatest contacts with the work", which would be Russia. Russia was 50pma on the URAA date, but I think had some wartime extensions, which I think push these over the line, such that only ones published before 1929 (or created before 1904, if unpublished) would be PD in the U.S., regardless of current status in Russia, or the country of origin (if different). Carl Lindberg (talk) 19:09, 27 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I do not know such cases (on the Berne definition) too, but in the Russian copyright legislation there are 3 criterions of copyrightability - (1) the Russian territory (the territory of the Russian Federation (the RSFSR previously, not the USSR) since Nov.7, 1917 to today) in the borders on the date of publication, (2) the Russian citizenship on the date of publication, and (3) international treaties.
Moreover, there is similar situation with reports of telegraph agencies or press-releases- they are reported/released worldwide formally, but the country indicated in report/release is the country of origin (some reports/releases have two of more indicated countries). Alex Spade (talk) 22:12, 28 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Right -- the Berne country of origin pretty much never applies to internal works, or even most situations involving foreign works. The specific definition in Berne pretty much only matters if a country is applying the rule of the shorter term for a foreign work to have lesser protection than their own works normally do; the Berne definition would have to be used in that case to determine the country, since that is in the treaty. In pretty much any other situation, more sensical definitions can be used (which even the US did, with the URAA -- the "source country" there is pretty much the same thing, but differs quite a bit once it comes to simultaneous publication). But however nonsensical it seems, Commons uses the Berne definition, since that should control when works expire in many countries (even if that virtually never comes up in a court case to test it). Carl Lindberg (talk) 01:15, 29 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Another aspect to consider is how publication is defined. For example, in this academic article about Russian copyright law, it is stated that an author, transferring a work to another by agreement, gives consent to publication, and thus the work can be considered published. This means that if Troshkin transferred his negatives to his employer (Izvestiya), the works would be legally considered published. Since all photos in question are of a professional nature, there is no reason to assume that Troshkin kept any of these photographs in his personal possession and did not transfer them to his employer. Considering this, then all of his photos would have been legally published when he transferred them to his employer, that is, definitely before his death in 1944, and all these photographs would be firmly public domain. Kges1901 (talk) 08:13, 8 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Term publication (обнародование or опубликование in Russian, and these are two different term in the Russian copyright) is defined in the paragraph one and two of part 1 of article 1268 of the Civil Code. Consent to publication is not publication (right for exercise of some action is not action). And mentioned resent discussion on the Ru-Wiki for orphan works (where I was the main speaker) does not matter for Troshkin's works - author of photos (Troshkin) is known. Alex Spade (talk) 09:03, 8 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    At the same time if there is a source for original of photo and its reverse side, and such original (reverse side) is marked by author name and a year, then this year can be considered as year of publication according to the last paragraph of article 475 of the Soviet Russian Civil Code. Alex Spade (talk) 09:22, 8 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • In terms of copyright I am specifically discussing the nuances of обнародование because the term contains a broader meaning than simply опубликование, and the expiration of copyright (if work is posthumously published) is calculated from обнародование and not опубликование of a work – regarding photographs, that public display of a work counts as обнародование while not опубликование in the strict sense, therefore opening broader possibilities for the release of a work during Troshkin's lifetime.
Regarding originals, another aspect is that at least some of Troshkin's photographs were sent into TASS and copyright thus transferred to TASS, falling under PD-Russia under the TASS aspect. For example this photograph was marked on the back with TASS copyright stamp even though Troshkin was an Izvestiya correspondent.
In any case presence of markings on the back is the most hopeful approach to this problem of posthumous copyright since any photograph/negative with a description had to have been marked on the back with a caption and name of the author, since Troshkin's photographs presumably entered into a centralized group of photographs cleared for publication, as his photographs were not just published in Izvestiya, but in Krasnaya Zvezda, Vechernyaya Moskva, other newspapers, and books (for example a large quantity of his photographs taken during the Battle of Khalkhin Gol appeared in this 1940 book without mention of his name. Secondly finding an exact date for negatives such as this example would have been impossible if there was no marking on the back. The fact that exact dates taken are available for negatives indicates that they were also marked in some way with captions, dates and names of author. Examples of such author name and year markings on the back of a Troshkin photograph include [1], [2], [3], [4], [5], [6], [7]. Kges1901 (talk) 13:35, 8 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Yes, обнародование is wider than опубликование, but the fact (and the date) of обнародование must be proved (for example for some painting "This painting was created in 1923 and was shown on ZYX-art exhibition in 1925, see reference link").
  • Yes, if photowork is marked by TASS (no matter by TASS only or by TASS+name_of_real_photograph), this photowork is TASS-work. Alex Spade (talk) 14:56, 8 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Two ConventionExtension screenshots

These files was speedily deleted as copyright violations. I was originally going to request undeletion on the basis of them being screenshots of free software (i.e., {{MediaWiki screenshot}}); annoyingly, though, the Git repository of the MediaWiki extension that they're screenshots of doesn't appear to contain a license statement of any kind. However, I noticed that the account that uploaded these files (Chughakshay16) is the same account that developed the extension in the first place (see mw:User:Chughakshay16/ConventionExtension, git:mediawiki/extensions/ConventionExtension/+log) - therefore, even if this extension's code isn't freely licensed, Chughakshay16 would nevertheless have the ability and authority to release screenshots of the results of their own programming under a free license (as they did when they uploaded the files in question to Commons); and these freely-licensed screenshots are therefore not copyvios.

At User talk:Moheen#Screenshot of conference extension deleted?, the deleting admin mentioned that the files were tagged as likely belong[ing] to Cisco Webex; however, I didn't see anything that would indicate that Cisco holds a copyright over this extension's code (or that would prohibit the code's author from being able to freely license screenshots of its results).

those files deleted as no FoP in Georgia but they are just graffiti. I think that COM:GRAFFITI applies. Template {{Non-free graffiti}} should be added as well. We have a lot's of them in Category:Non-free graffiti. -- Geagea (talk) 13:52, 28 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

 Comment Documentation of Template:Non-free graffiti states: "Note that this template doesn't have enough help on the undeletion requests, deleted files are unlikely to be restored just because of the potential application of this tag.". Günther Frager (talk) 18:18, 28 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
that's not just because the template. The template is only for information. The deletion rational was no FoP in Georgia. But it is not FoP issue. I linked COM:GRAFFITI and we have a lots of files in Category:Non-free graffiti. -- Geagea (talk) 18:28, 28 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
 Oppose But Georgia does not have FOP anyway. Also, these are murals by unknown artists, not just text or tags. Thuresson (talk) 18:09, 30 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
So graffiti is a FoP case? If FoP in Georgia will be ok than the graffiti also ok? Aren't they in temporarily exhibition by definition. If they just a case of FoP it's not very clear in COM:GRAFFITI. -- Geagea (talk) 20:47, 31 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
For better or worse, we have allowed photos of illegal graffiti by policy regardless of FoP laws -- but we prefer using the FoP tags, or PD tags, if those apply rather than relying on that rationale. If this looks like "legal graffiti", i.e. murals, then we should not allow it. Carl Lindberg (talk) 23:59, 5 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

In my opinion the logo of the school was a composition of text and the heraldic symbol of the Kanton of Zurich, which is used in every publication (e.g. https://www.zh.ch/de.html) As I understand it, heraldic symbols of Swiss entities governed by law ("öffentlich-rechtliche Körperschaften") are Public Domain.--Rocky187 (talk) 06:41, 9 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Arguments against deletion were again not taken into account.

The photo depicts a portable metal board of a travel office, with many similar leaflets containing large color titles in Russian (suppossed to be simple non-literary texts, without sufficiently creative authorship in a general typeface) and illustrative photos of the destinations offered (indistinct due to the proportions in the whole composition and resolution of the photo, apparently De minimis par excellence). The subject of the photograph is the fact that the Bohemian city of Karlovy Vary is partially Russian-language. This is an encyclopedically significant fact and the photos documenting this fact are in scope of Commons.

  • Yann argued "These posters contain a lot of copyrighted material, not only simple text." He ignored the arguments, that the texts (titles of the leaflets) have not sufficiently creative authorship and that the included photos are small, indistinct, de minimis. He did not specify which elements or aspects of the leaflets he considered copyrightable and why he disagree with the contention that the included photographs, given the size, composition, resolution and subject matter of the overall photograph, are "De minimis".
  • Jameslwoodward wrote: "If the posters are de minimis then all we have is a photo of a non-descript doorway which is out of scope." This reasoning does not respond to my arguments. My argument was that the headlines of the leaflets are non-creative PD-Texts, and the photographs contained in the leaflets are "de minimis" in relation to the whole composition and subject of the photography. The composition of individual leaflets also cannot be considered an original creative work either.
  • Jameslwoodward wrote: "If the posters are the subject of the image, then the image infringes on their copyrights." Again, an argument based on a false premise. The subject of the photo is the distinct headings of the leaflets, especially the language used, which is in scope as the subject of the photo. The headings are claimed to be not copyrightable, as simple texts without sufficiently creative authorship, in a general typeface. The only thing that could be copyrightable on those leaflets are the illustrative photos of the destinations, which are so small and indistinct in the overall composition that exactly correspond to the principle "de minimis", par excellence. (Btw., the rack itself could be also in scope.) --ŠJů (talk) 11:06, 14 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

 Oppose I don't read the language, but there appear to be enough legible words there to have a copyright in the USA -- which only takes a single sentence or two. Also, many of the photographs are large enough so that they cannot be called de minimis. As I said, there is nothing in this image that is interesting that does not have a copyright as text or photos or both. .     Jim . . .

Please restore the following pages:

Reason: this may be a test UNDEL case. Deleted through Commons:Deletion requests/File:Дмитров1.jpg, on the grounds that it contained one component image that was a violation of NoFoP-Russia for copyrighted public monuments.

RG72 gave an interesting case though, in 2019–20 concerning a postcard set, one of the constituent postcards contained an image of a monument in Yekaterinburg whose sculptor filed a copyright complaint (see Commons talk:Copyright rules by territory/Russia#NoFoP should be amended). The case reached the Russian Supreme Court, which denied the sculptor's complaint (essentially dismissed), because the involved monument was only depicted in one of the postcards of the set (the set is considered the entire reproduction, and the monument is not the main object of the whole reproduction because it was only depicted in one of the postcards). Perhaps while the original images should stay deleted, the montages or collages where those deleted images were being used should be restored, in light with this slightly-lenient ruling by the Russian court narrowing sculptors' economic rights.

Ping other participants of that CRT/Russia talkpage thread @Alexander Davronov@Alex Spade. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 08:11, 15 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Recently (on June 25, 2024) the Yekaterinburg case and some similar cases were subject of trial in the Russian Constitutional Court (the highest court of the RF, higher than the Russian Supreme Court). See discussions in ru-community: 1st+2nd ones on Commons and 1st+2nd ones in Ru-wiki.
In short: the right for usage of copyrighted work for informational and similar purposes (even with some profit earning) without copyrightholder permission granted by article 1274 of the Civil Code of the RF is higher than noncommercial/limited rights granted by part 1 of article 1276. Nevertheless, that is not enough for Commons - article 1274 is the Russian analog of fair use doctrine from the US copyright legislation, which is deprecated on Commons. Alex Spade (talk) 09:37, 15 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Alex Spade how about the possibility of the montages/collages being lawful based on the court ruling, since the monuments themselves are not the main objects of the collages/montages. Similar analogy to the court ruling itself that concerns a set of postcards, even if one of the postcards unambiguously shows the monument itself as its sole depiction, the entire postcard set is lawful (the monument is not the main object of the entire postcard set) and the sculptor's claims dismissed, if I can understand RG72's comment in the CRT talk page. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 09:51, 15 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hmmm... This is interesting PoV (suggestion), but Jim's point below (We routinely require that each of the individual images in a montage is present on Commons) is too strong. Alex Spade (talk) 22:10, 21 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

 Oppose There is a simple answer to this. We routinely require that each of the individual images in a montage is present on Commons, freely licensed. We do this in order that we can check the copyright status of each image. Obviously, the offending image in a situation like this cannot be present separately on Commons, so we can't keep a montage containing it. .     Jim . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 16:18, 17 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

 Support Firstly the author of the image expressly freely licensed his image to the Commons. Secondly, according to the Russian Constitutional Landmark case mentioned above (see news on Court's website, [8] and [9]) NoFoP is not applicable anymore to the images of the objects situated in public spaces and therefore can be freely distributed requiring no object's (depicted on the images) copyrightholder permission. I think it's clear now that anything copyrighted that was publicly displayed (either by author himself or contractor) can be freely taken photo of and the photo can be therefore freely distributed, including for commercial purposes. If you don't want this way of your works to be imaged, then make it private. That's simple. Alexander Davronov (talk) 13:43, 21 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Restoration request File:Emily Willis in B&W.jpg

Hello, as I don't regularly log on here, I've just discovered today that my work,File:Emily Willis in B&W.jpg has once again been deleted on the basis of supposition by the user Krd following a report by the user Counterfeit Purses attached here.

I'm sick of these deletions, because again, this is a sentence based on the unfounded assumptions of a random user. I don't know how to prove that this is my own work either, unless I show you my computer. This is a photo taken by myself and enhanced with my own tools, now from 2022. I’ve, effectively, deliberately blurred the nipples that are originally visible in the photo so that it can be seen or used without restrictions. This is a photo I automatically shared with the model, so I don't know what uses she made afterwards.

Thank you in advance for considering this case.--Bpj30 (talk) 07:30, 25 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

 Oppose This is a small image without camera EXIF that apparently appeared elsewhere. The easiest solution is for you to send the original image without the blurring, in full camera size and full EXIF to VRT. .     Jim . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 13:03, 25 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Image of text from 1932 Three Smiths Statue, which has been PD in Finland since 2011. URAA can't be sole reason for deletion. images of this statue are free to commercial usage. 185.172.241.184 09:24, 25 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

 Oppose On the contrary. The statue has a URAA copyright and therefore its image cannot be kept on Commons. .     Jim . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 12:56, 25 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

We don't apply URAA to statues if the picture is under a free license. Yann (talk) 16:12, 25 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I am the owner of the copyright of this file. This photo is from 1957 — Preceding unsigned comment added by ChangeDavid (talk • contribs) 09:29, 25 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

 Oppose And why are you the copyright owner? Who is the photographer? This was obviously scanned from a newspaper, so you need to give some proof of your claim. Yann (talk) 11:18, 25 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The photograph is from 1957 as mentioned, this is from Tipografia Rangel, the Goan printing press' own publication. The owner was the person in the photo Dr. Jaime Valfredo Rangel, he was the owner of the printing press and the publisher. He passed away in 1959 as mentioned in his wiki page.
As per Indian copyright law If the author's identity is revealed before the 60 years are up, the copyright lasts until 60 years after the author's death. If there are multiple authors, the copyright lasts for 60 years after the death of the last author. That being said, I am his heir and have the rights to his possessions. ChangeDavid (talk) 12:29, 25 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

 Oppose And how is it that you think that the subject of the photograph was the owner of the copyright? The copyright always rests with the photographer. The subject owns the copyright only in the case where the photographer has transferred it in writing. .     Jim . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 12:54, 25 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Jim,
Thank you for your comment
In this case, these items were clicked prior to the Indian copyright Act of 1957. (That being said, Goa was not a part of India till 1961, by then Mr. Rangel had passed away). These are all historical documents, and at that time in rural India, there was no mechanism for registration of copyrights and the photographers were hired by persons looking to publish and they provided the photos to them as their property for a fee.
The subject was the owner and director of the publishing house who published the work in which this came out (all pictures that have been uploaded here are from books published by Tipografia Rangel) . In that era, in the Goan state of India, this was prior to copyright laws and any registration. All the documentation was given on the books as property of Tipografia Rangel. The subject was the owner of said publishing house and was therefore the owner of the photo which has been uploaded. The previous editor was correct that this has been scanned. However not from a newspaper but this book of the founder. I hope you understand my difficulty in explanation as due to this being a historical document from a pre-independent colonial possession in India.

This also goes for the other requests by you but Portugal joined the Berne Convention in 1911 so any Goan works became copyrighted at the moment of creation. India joined Berne in 1928, so there never was a time these works were not under copyright. If you inherited the copyright, you should contact COM:VRT so this can be verified. We cannot do such onwiki. Abzeronow (talk) 18:04, 25 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
