see c:Commons:Deletion requests/File:Officer Michael Thomas Slager.jpg. I don't think there's any case for fair use at the moment, so it should be deleted on English Wikipedia and the decision deferred to Commons. Magog the Ogre ( t c) 00:49, 21 March 2016 (UTC) reply

I commented on Commons. I also see no case for fair use (but I think one could be made, as this picture is used in one article and the biography of this person could probably be spun off if desired). Right now it seems that for some reason there is an assertion of public domain status but I do not understand it. By default, delete unless the licensing is put in order.

  • Comment I could find no statutory basis for the library's claims about SC state works being in the public domain. To the contrary, at least one case finds that a SC county can hold a copyright. [1] Calliopejen1 ( talk) 21:16, 26 April 2016 (UTC) reply

  • Keep Britain protects everything from signatures to minor font variations. The deletion request on Commons contains no evidence that the file doesn't meet the British threshold of originality. In particular, the choice to use an oversized '.' instead of a normally sized one could be problematic. -- Stefan2 ( talk) 01:16, 24 March 2016 (UTC) reply
Stefan2 To your knowledge, is there any documentation in a Wikimedia project about copyright status of font variations by country? I am just curious and know nothing about this. Blue Rasberry (talk) 13:19, 26 March 2016 (UTC) reply
That would be c:COM:TOO and c:COM:SIG, but there is not much information available, and we lack information from most countries. -- Stefan2 ( talk) 12:14, 29 March 2016 (UTC) reply
