- Commons:Freedom of panorama#Pictures of public domain objects takes precedence. The object itself is in public domain, therefore a photo of it can be licenced as the author desires. Belgrano (talk) 17:09, 10 October 2010 (UTC)
评论 - It is clear from the copyright of FOP in Cambodia, that everything is copyrighted, and it is not proved that this architecture or image is in public domain by LAW (Cambodia), Please read the last sentence of the Commons image policy Commons:Freedom of panorama#Pictures of public domain objects For example, old buildings and statues where the architect or artist died more than a certain number of years ago (depending on the country). And i don't think that your Undo is as per the common guidelines, Till now this discussion is not over and no body agreed on anything...Law is standing somewhere and the Commons is standing somewhere...Any way i am closing this topic because Wikimedia Commons, As it is not standing for free images, by following the law of different countries... It clears in the policy that these kind of images cannot be uploaded, but before reaching in to a conclusions, Admins playing a monopoly job here...I dont want to be a part of an Edit War..en:WP:EW..--Common-Man | My Interactions 20:09, 10 October 2010 (UTC)
- There's no need to overreact, there's no "monopoly" in here. Speedy deletion is kept for uncontroversial deletions, where there's nothing to discuss. If there is (meaning that someone has a reason to reject the deletion), then the speedy deletion is declined while the discussion takes place; but this does not mean that the deletion would not take place. It only means that the deletion may take place later, after the discussion has been settled, so interrupting a deletion with some bogus claim will not wor in preventing a file from being deleted. Those rules work for anyone, both admins and non-admins are allowed to remove speedy deletion tags and explain why should the image be kept.
- As for this image, I have checked the Copyright law of Cambodia. As I was sure before reading it, something builded in the XII century is in the public domain. See article 30º: "The protection of economic right started from the date of the creation of a work. This protection covers the life of the author, and the whole 50 (fifty) years following his/her decease. In the case of a work of collaboration, the economic rights shall be protected during the life of the last surviving author and for 50 (fifty) years after his/her death". So unless the author is Highlander, Gilgamesh, Q or Vandal Savage, the copyright has expired. Belgrano (talk) 22:41, 10 October 2010 (UTC)
Now its clear that economic rights are not valid for such buildings or ancient architecture, What about the freedom to take a photograph and publishing it into public domain...Seems that the Commons Commons:Freedom_of_panorama#Cambodia need to be changed from incidental inclusion to recent buildings..--Common-Man | My Interactions 10:43, 11 October 2010 (UTC)
- The things I described (that if a building or work of architecture is itself in public domain, then freedom of panorama is of no concern) are at the top of the policy page, and apply for all countries, Cambodia included. There's no need to change anything. Belgrano (talk) 14:24, 11 October 2010 (UTC)
