Does File:Lincoln Chafee 2020 presidential campaign logo.webp really need to be treated as non-free simply due to the Statue of Liberty imagery used as the "i" in "Lincoln"? If it does, then it probably fails WP:NFCCP based on it's current use. For reference, I asked the same at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions/Archive/2023/August#Statue of Liberty imagery and just want to double check. -- Marchjuly ( talk) 13:03, 16 April 2024 (UTC)
I am looking to add a picture of Olivia Frank on english Wikipedia. For rather obvious reasons, a new picture cannot be taken, and I can't find any existing pictures that are usable per commons.
Would any/every one of those meet the requirements for fair use? I believe this to be the case, but am rather inexperienced with this sort of media.
Thank you :) FortunateSons ( talk) 09:45, 19 April 2024 (UTC)
Hello everyone! I noticed that this file is copyrighted and I would like to use it for the article "Torture" in the Vietnamese Wikipedia project. Can I upload it to the Vietnamese Wikipedia with full copyright details like the English version? Hope to get some help! Have a nice day! Phong Dang ( talk) 04:09, 21 April 2024 (UTC)
Greetings. I found an image I'd like to upload. It's a crop/screen shot of an image of a dancing shaman woman from the disappearing Nivkh culture. The dancer is Chiyo Nakamura. The image appears numbered 019 on PDF page 69 (publication page number 64)(bottom right). I'm hopeful the image I found qualifies under some licensure (non-copyrighted, free use?)
Here's the image provenance: the actual author (photographer) is unknown. The publisher of the document that contains this image is the Osaka National Museum of Ethnology. The author of the publication containing the image, Chuner Taksami, obtained the image from the "personal collection" of a former (different, defunct) museum director (Yonemura Tetsuhide), a private individual who is/was the apparent owner. Whose property is it when I crop a page from the government publication (with this provenance)? How does no-copyright or fair use smell to you? FWIW it appears everyone involved except the Osaka museum is now dead. Thanks for your input! JFHJr ( ㊟) 21:55, 21 April 2024 (UTC)
Is it acceptable – in the context of WP:Non-free content – to have two album covers in an article of a song, like the article Selos (Shaira song)? One album (at the infobox) is of 2024 while the other is the first album (when the song was first released in 2023). JWilz12345 ( Talk| Contrib's.) 01:44, 24 April 2024 (UTC)
Hi, This is a great image, but I have some doubt about the copyright claim. If it was renewed, should it be by Margaret Bourke-White or by Life? Thanks, Yann ( talk) 18:35, 24 April 2024 (UTC)
Hi there, Can someone please let me know how to fix /info/en/?search=File:Locks_quest_DS_screenshot.jpg so that it doesn't get autoremoved from Lock's Quest? I thought I had provided a rationale but the bot doesn't think so. Thanks. GraziePrego ( talk) 05:42, 27 April 2024 (UTC)
What is the copyright status of the two photos taken by Richard Harrington and published in 1949 in the Vancouver Sun? Could they be in the public domain? Cunard ( talk) 01:24, 28 April 2024 (UTC)
What is the copyright status of the two 1963 Michigan Quarterly Review drawings on pages 118 and 120 of this article? Could they be in the public domain under commons:Template:PD-US-not renewed? I checked this link, which says:
First renewed issue: no issue renewals found in registered works database First renewed contribution in: Summer 1964; see registered works database
Additional note
The Summer 1964 issue is the first to have a contribution renewal explicitly filed, but all issues and contributions copyrighted in 1964 or later would have automatically renewed copyrights.
