File:Sherman Block, 1986.jpg[edit]

This file is not Sherman Block: the UCLA Library misidentified the person in the photo. Here is a 1985 photo of Sherman Block (second from left) in the Los Angeles Times: https://www.newspapers.com/image/401442627/ Here is Sherman Block on C-SPAN in 1992: https://www.c-span.org/person/?22585/ShermanBlock Here is Sherman Block in 1996 from Getty: https://www.gettyimages.co.uk/detail/news-photo/los-angeles-county-sheriff-sherman-block-portrait-inside-news-photo/1924917837 OCNative (talk) 01:43, 7 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This isn't a reason for deletion. You can request for it to renamed to the correct person. reppoptalk 01:52, 7 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Comment If the person shown can be correctly identified and is notable, image can be renamed. If the person shown cannot be identified and the photo does not seem notable for any other reason, I support deletion - I see no reason to keep a picture of an unknown man with inaccurate description. -- Infrogmation of New Orleans (talk) 18:18, 7 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    I agree with Infrogmation. If we can identify who this person is, and if he is notable, then I will withdraw this deletion request. There is no reason to have this photo of an unknown man with an inaccurate name/description. OCNative (talk) 08:12, 8 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

File:Jan Usawi - sina.jpg[edit]

This is very clearly not a PD-textlogo Trade (talk) 01:45, 7 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Trade what would qualify as a PD-textlogo? genuinely asking as I haven't found a good description.
apart from that, just to be sure, do you know about the Sitelen Pona script? I thought that these qualified as they are simply a piece of text over a gradient (although sina is more complex). thanks in advance. Juwan (talk) 10:37, 7 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]


File:Azikiwe in London.jpg[edit]

Even if John Franks died the day he took this picture in 6 May 1957 this photo would be still protected by copyright (1957 + 70 + 1 = 2028). Without a date of death for John Franks, I think the best we could do is {{PD-old-assumed}}, which means we could undelete this photo in 2078. —RP88 (talk) 02:05, 7 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]


Firstly, it was a public domain work and It was not registered nor published with a copyright notice by the author. MikeJanetta (talk) 10:49, 7 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
To be in the public domain the copyright has to expire. John Franks is a UK photographer, this photo was taken in the UK, and per EXIF this image from Getty was originally a Keystone Press Agency photo (an early 20th century London based photo agency) so this photo is very likely a UK work. The copyright term in the UK is life + 70 years (see Commons:Copyright rules by territory/United Kingdom). Per COM:L, Commons requires a work be in the public domain the source country of the work as well as the US. —RP88 (talk) 14:43, 7 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Files in Category:St. Andrew the Apostle Parish Church of Pantabangan[edit]

The entire church and its sculptures are certainly post-1972. None of the notable original buildings of w:en:Pantabangan survive, as the old town was submerged in the 1970s when its landmark dam was built. The present-day monuments and buildings of the town date to the 1970s, so none are in public domain. See this blog. The sculptures like crucifixes are at mercy of U.S. copyright thanks to the Uruguay Round Agreements Act; meaning to say, those won't be undeleted even if those fall out of copyright in the Philippines, but only when their U.S. copyrights established by URAA law expire. We can ignore URAA, only if the Philippines had a valid, commercial Freedom of Panorama (see Template:Not-free-US-FOP).

File:HMS Stonehenge.jpg[edit]

Uploaded here in 2007 with a claim that it is a work by the UK government but lists the author as a registered company, Stewart Bale Ltd, Liverpool. Our source at IWM confirms the photographer as the company but makes no claim that it was created for the government. Looking online for other photos of this submarine, I found a record at National Museums Liverpool saying a photo of this sub is Copyright Stewart Bale Commercial photographer. Whether that NML copy is the same image or not is unclear, but this is a definite statement that Bale held a private copyright. The next question is whether this is an image by Bale (as suggested by NML) which would produce copyright of life +70 or of his company (as suggested by IWM) which would produce copyright of creation +70 (with a publication right of first publication +25). This isn't a clear cut case, so any thoughts on this one? From Hill To Shore (talk) 22:29, 7 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

We have an English Wikipedia article at en:Stewart Bale, which shows it is the name of a photo agency. Without the name of a specific photographer, it should probably be classed as {{PD-UK-unknown}}. That would mean UK copyright protection should have expired on 1 January 2014. First publication is more problematic but if the main archive for Stewart Bale is at NMS (per the enwiki article) and IWM have obtained a separate copy, it was likely published close to the time of creation. That would mean US copyright of publication +95 years is likely to expire on 1 January 2039. From Hill To Shore (talk) 23:58, 7 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
 Keep Stewart Bale was a well known commercial photographer in Liverpool.[1] They were based in a tiny street at the back of Watson Prickard's, just behind the Unmentionable Building, but ceased trading in the early '80s. I would keep this one, per Hill to Shore, as 70+ years from 1943. Also note that the head of the company at this time, Edward Stewart Bale, died in 1944, so pma+70 also leaves it clear.
