• Orphaned image's description says it is a picture of the uploader's "vault taken by myself" I'm not an expert, but how do you take a picture of yourself while polevaulting? -- ТимофейЛееСуда. 03:52, 22 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

File:Gallery of Jamaican Canadians.jpg (delete | talk | history | logs).

• Collage of 12 images but the gallery in the {{Information}} template only shows 11 images, so one image must be unsourced. Also note that two of the images have been reported as possibly unfree (see #File:JonathanEmile2009.JPG and #File:Orim M. Meikle 2007.jpg above). Stefan2 (talk) 09:19, 22 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

• I tagged this as "no source". The uploader later deleted the "no source" tag but didn't add any source. Stefan2 (talk) 11:15, 22 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
• This image was provided by a friend who took it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Riztech (talk • contribs) 13:26, 22 January 2012 (UTC) riz 15:26, 22 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
• And did your friend approve to distributing it under the specified licence? I notice that the licence requires attributing the photographer, but this is impossible since the photographer is unknown. This might be a problem. --Stefan2 (talk) 17:32, 22 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

• Looks a bit dodgy, besides self-gfdl tag there's no real claim of ownership. Also has a black border which may indicate that it has been copied off a website. Acather96 (talk) 11:41, 22 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

File:Rockmen guardians.JPG (delete | talk | history | logs).

• For subtle copyright reasons, 1987 U.S. statues need evidence that they, or an authorized image or other copy of them (advertisement, pamphlet, photo, postcard, statuettes, etc.), was distributed to another party (sold, given, shown in an ad, etc.) at least once before March 1, 1989 without a copyright notice. Closeapple (talk) 17:42, 22 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
• Even if this work is not free, it could be reduced and used under fair use. However, someone might be able to find a pre-1990 copy of these statues that makes them public domain, so that this photograph is also free. Long explanation: Sculpture does not have freedom of panorama in the United States, so we have to consider the copyright status of the sculpture itself. The Rockmen Guardians were built by Terese Agnew in 1987 according to Roadside America or 1987–1988 (SIRIS IAS 66830011). Because of a 1978 law, this 1987 work would have been under the 5-year time to register copyright, when a 1989 law went into effect and made registration unnecessary, according to Commons:Commons:Public art and copyrights in the US#1978 to March 1, 1989. However: The 1978–1989 law also said that public display of a work, without transferring it, was not "publication". So, in short: If the sculptures, or an authorized photograph, statuette, or other authorized copy of the work, was sold, given, or otherwise distributed to someone, before March 1, 1989 without a copyright notice on it, then the statues are public domain. Otherwise, they are still under copyright. --Closeapple (talk) 17:47, 22 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
