== Happy PD Day@!@ ==
How in the world are you tracking down images that have their (c) expired to undelete? :)
Also I'd welcome your thoughts on [[m:Copyright expiry acceleration]].

:{{ping|Sj}} happy PD Day to you! I start by searching FFD, PUF, and fair use images (some of my methods are listed at [[User:Wikiacc/Public Domain Day]]) but it's mostly luck. It just so happened that the ''Nepenthaceae'' images were uploaded in two large batches, the bulk of which were still around as fair use, so I checked the deleted contributions for those uploaders.
:I'll take a look at that page! There are certainly synergies among the various efforts to find and retag 1923-63 PD files, especially the deleted ones. Deletions of old images tagged as fair use can be hard to track down, including F5, PROD, and FFD nominations that don't mention years.

==[[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion|Speedy deletion]] nomination of [[:Category:Iraq public ___domain images]]==
[[File:Ambox warning pn.svg|48px|left|alt=|link=]]
A tag has been placed on [[:Category:Iraq public ___domain images]] indicating that it is currently empty, and is not a [[:Category:Disambiguation categories|disambiguation category]], a [[:Category:Wikipedia soft redirected categories|category redirect]], a [[:Category:Wikipedia featured topics categories|featured topics category]], under discussion at [[Wikipedia:Categories for discussion|Categories for discussion]], or a project category that by its nature may become empty on occasion. If it remains empty for seven days or more, it may be deleted under [[WP:CSD#C1|section C1 of the criteria for speedy deletion]].
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason you may '''contest the nomination''' by [[:Category:Iraq public ___domain images|visiting the page]] and removing the speedy deletion tag. <!-- Template:Db-catempty-notice --> <!-- Template:Db-csd-notice-custom --> <span style="font-family:Papyrus; color:#800080;">[[User:Liz|'''''L'''''iz]]</span> <sup style="font-family: Times New Roman; color: #006400;">[[Special:Contributions/Liz|'''''Read!''''']] [[User talk:Liz|'''''Talk!''''']]</sup> 22:54, 24 January 2024 (UTC)
== PD Images ==
Dear Wikiacc..I think it's better to upload full-size public ___domain images to Commons rather than Wikipedia! [[User:Maher27777|Maher27777]] ([[User talk:Maher27777|talk]]) 13:12, 17 April 2024 (UTC)
:{{ping|Maher27777}} For new uploads, absolutely! But when the full-size image is already in the Wikipedia file history, I find it easiest to [[Help:Reverting#Reverting images|restore]] the full-size version first, and then move to Commons via [[WP:MTC#Tools|established tools]]. Do you agree? [[User:Wikiacc|Wikiacc]] ([[User talk:Wikiacc|¶]]) 21:26, 17 April 2024 (UTC)
==PD question==
Hello, when checking the copyrights for non-us works published in 1928 or before what should be the guideline for let's say a movie poster. Is it based on the death of the director or something else? In best regards, [[User:Wiiformii|Wiiformii]] ([[User talk:Wiiformii|talk]]) 20:54, 14 May 2024 (UTC)
:{{ping|Wiiformii}} it's complicated. Honestly, most of the time I just tag {{tl|PD-US-expired-abroad}} and move on.
:Many movie posters from that era were made by artists. In that case, the source country copyright is based on the death of the artist. For example, posters by [[:Category:Film posters by Josef Fenneker|Josef Fenneker]] are in copyright in Germany until 2027 because Fenneker died in 1956 (per [[c:Commons:Copyright rules by territory/Germany]]). But it's often hard to tell who the artist is. The artist's signature may be present but hard to read.
:If the poster is a still image from the movie, with no other artistic elements, you are probably safe using the death of the director. But you have to look carefully. [[User:Wikiacc|Wikiacc]] ([[User talk:Wikiacc|¶]]) 23:38, 14 May 2024 (UTC)
::Fair enough, especially with these older works the information behind their creation starts to deteriorate. Thanks again, [[User:Wiiformii|Wiiformii]] ([[User talk:Wiiformii|talk]]) 23:41, 14 May 2024 (UTC)
== Category question ==
I see that you have been doing lots of work in [[:Category:Copy to Wikimedia Commons with hidden file revisions]]. Do you know if there's a similar category for {{tl|PD-US-1923-abroad}} with hidden revisions? For example [[:File:The Girl from the Provinces.jpg]]. --[[User:Stefan2|Stefan2]] ([[User talk:Stefan2|talk]]) 23:54, 9 January 2025 (UTC)
: Other examples are [[:File:Kri-Kri, the Duchess of Tarabac.jpg]] and (presumably, although it says unknown date in the FUR) [[:File:Incest (film).jpg]]. --[[User:Stefan2|Stefan2]] ([[User talk:Stefan2|talk]]) 00:05, 10 January 2025 (UTC)
{{ping|Stefan2}} I'm not aware of such a category. If there aren't too many such files, bulk nominations at [[WP:REFUND]] are an option. You certainly could create the category -- for tips on auto-populating it, reading [[Wikipedia:Bots/Requests for approval/MDanielsBot 9]] and/or talking to {{u|Mdaniels5757}} might be helpful. [[User:Wikiacc|Wikiacc]] ([[User talk:Wikiacc|¶]]) 00:15, 10 January 2025 (UTC)
:@[[User:Stefan2|Stefan2]] Looks like there are 160 files with hidden revisions currently: https://quarry.wmcloud.org/query/89751. If you think it would be useful, I'd be happy to file a BRFA to add a category* to those files. All I'd need is the name of the category to add ([[:Category:PD-US-expired-abroad with hidden file revisions]]?)
:<nowiki>*</nowiki> Probably actually a template that includes the category, for the reason in that BRFA. — [[User:Mdaniels5757|Mdaniels5757]] ([[User talk:Mdaniels5757|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Mdaniels5757|contribs]]) 02:19, 10 January 2025 (UTC)
::I don't know what the category should be named. There are also other templates such as {{tl|PD-ineligible-USonly}} and {{tl|FoP-USonly}} which we might wish to catch.
::There are some files in the report which are also in the public ___domain in the source country, for example the first one ([[:File:Lily Flagg.jpg]]).
::I created [[quarry:query/58367]] to find files with {{tl|mtc}} with missing revisions and found that there were 30 of those. As there were not too many, I added [[:Category:Copy to Wikimedia Commons with hidden file revisions]] to those. --[[User:Stefan2|Stefan2]] ([[User talk:Stefan2|talk]]) 10:10, 10 January 2025 (UTC)
::I find lots of additional {{tl|PD-1923}} and {{tl|PD-US-1923-abroad}} with old deleted revisions when going through [[quarry:query/89760]] (an attempt to find files published in 1929 which are tagged as unfree by looking at the names of the categories of the articles where the files are used). --[[User:Stefan2|Stefan2]] ([[User talk:Stefan2|talk]]) 11:41, 10 January 2025 (UTC)
== [[Special:Diff/1269067584]] ==
Please be careful with films as the copyright rules are very complex and confusing. See [[c:COM:VPC#Composers for silent films]] for a discussion, although there is not a lot of clarity. For single German screenshots, it seems that you should use the death year of the cameraman, not the death year of the director.
There appears to be an article about the film on German Wikipedia, [[:de:Melodie der Welt (1929)]], where the infobox lists four cameramen: [[:de:Reimar Kuntze]] (died more than 70 years ago), [[:de:Paul Holzki]] (died less than 70 years ago), Wilhelm Lehne (death year unknown) and Rudolph Rathmann (death year unknown). I don't know which cameraman's death year we should use. --[[User:Stefan2|Stefan2]] ([[User talk:Stefan2|talk]]) 21:34, 13 January 2025 (UTC)
:{{ping|Stefan2}} Thanks. I didn't realize it was so complex. Perhaps we need a subtemplate/subcategory of {{tl|PD-US-expired-abroad}} for films. Perhaps we should also be subcatting [[:Category:Screenshots of films]] by source country. [[User:Wikiacc|Wikiacc]] ([[User talk:Wikiacc|¶]]) 00:31, 14 January 2025 (UTC)
::Films are way too complex. If everyone involved in the creation of the film has been dead for at least 70 years, then it's in the public ___domain. If no one has been dead for at least 70 years, then it's non-free. In all other cases, it's safer to just add {{tl|PD-US-1923-abroad}} with no expiration year as the list of people whose death years you should check varies depending on the country of the film. It seems that Germany thinks that single frames from a film aren't part of the cinematographic work but that they are separately copyrighted photographs taken by the cameraman and so they seem to follow the cameraman's death year, but I don't know if this is true in other countries. --[[User:Stefan2|Stefan2]] ([[User talk:Stefan2|talk]]) 09:44, 14 January 2025 (UTC)
