City Theater of Tehran is WFH and based on Intellectual property in Iran after 30 years it's free. There are many photos from this building here. MasoodHA (talk) 19:54, 14 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

 Support 70 pma definitely does not apply to Iran. Ankry (talk) 08:01, 15 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I doubt we can go on here without explanation how the "Work for hire" term from Iranian copyright law is interpreted in Iran, especially concerning architecture. Ankry (talk) 08:48, 27 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Ankry: See my recent comment on "how the "Work for hire" term from Iranian copyright law is interpreted in Iran." --Mhhossein talk 12:36, 26 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
 Oppose First, while it is true that 70pma does not apply, it is still 50 pma in Iran (30 pma for deaths before 22 August 1980). Second, architects rarely work on a work for hire basis -- they almost always retain copyright in their work. There is no evidence that this building was work for hire. The architect, Ali Sardar Afkhami, was alive in 2004, so the building will be under copyright until at least 1/1/2055. Third, the building has been added to after its 1972 construction. That work may or may not be in the photograph. .     Jim . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 10:26, 15 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@MasoodHA: Could you provide an evidence that this particular work is considered to be a work for hire in Iranian legal system? The Wikipedia article you pointed out is about US law, which is irrelevant here (PD in US because Iran is not a member of Berne convention). Ankry (talk) 11:54, 15 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@Ankry: In this case Iran's copyright law is not clear. But this is a public building that was built under the rule of Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, the last Shah of Iran. MasoodHA (talk) 11:44, 16 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Yann, I don't understand that. Commons:Copyright_rules_by_territory#Iran is clear that architectural works have a copyright that lasts 50 years pma. The thirty year limit in Article 16 extends only to financial rights, and does not include all of the other author's rights. .     Jim . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 14:58, 16 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
It would be based on Article 16. Iranian "work for hire" for architects may not be the same as U.S. norms, especially when it comes to past regimes or items built for the state. Article 16 also isn't particularly clear on ownership of the copyright or ownership of a single physical work. Carl Lindberg (talk) 15:10, 16 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Please see Commons:Deletion requests/Files in Category:Avicenna Mausoleum and Commons:Deletion_requests/Files_in_Category:Azadi_Tower. I don't see any difference with this request. Regards, Yann (talk) 05:54, 17 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Both of those were based on a misreading of Article 16 -- it does not say that work is PD after 30 years, but only that the author's financial rights terminate. Other rights remain in place for 50 pma. .     Jim . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 19:44, 17 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Generally, I would equate "financial" rights with the economic right, and any other rights as moral rights. Iranian law says that only the financial rights are transferable, so those are the only rights you can sell. Also, the "intellectual rights" have no time limit in their law. It is only financial rights which are normally 50pma, in Article 12, but that term seems to be explicitly limited by Article 16 in those situations. Carl Lindberg (talk) 23:02, 17 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@Ebrahim, Mardetanha, and Mmxx: Could you please have a look at this? Thanks, Yann (talk) 05:13, 21 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Support A theatre cannot be something different than a work for hire (it's not the architect's personal house). As Yann said: the 30 years after creation rule holds. --Ruthven (msg) 08:04, 12 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
    • What logic is that? If you hire someone to create a creative work for you, it frequently can be cheaper to not mess with work for hire, if you don't need the copyright (and a building is a big case where you might not care.) In the US, a building can not be work for hire; there's a list of things that can be, and architecture is not one of them. Iran is hard, because we don't have many good Persian speakers and I don't think they cribbed their copyright law from someone else like many other nations did. But let's not jump to conclusions without knowledge.--Prosfilaes (talk) 02:34, 13 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

This hinges on the question of whether the building was a work-for-hire or not. As I have said elsewhere, architects rarely workon a work-for-hire basis because that would mean that they could not use details from building A when designing building B later unless they got a license from the the owner of building A. While there is a possibility that Iran is different from the rest of the world in this regard, it seems to me that that must be proven here. Unless someone experienced in architecture contracts in Iran can speak to the subject, I think we must assume that Iran follows the rest of the world in this and that, therefore, the buidlings are pma 50. .     Jim . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 12:06, 23 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment: I'm a bilingual and can read the original text of the law. According to the article.13 of the Law for the Protection of Authors, Composers and Artist Rights, the copyright of the works created as a result of an order (WOH), belongs to the author client until 30 years after the creation date, unless there's an agreement over shortening the period. However, I've got no clue as to whether the work is really WOH. --Mhhossein talk 19:05, 24 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
    • Does Article 16 come into play here? Does that article refer to ownership of the copyright, or ownership of the physical work? Carl Lindberg (talk) 17:03, 25 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
      • Carl Lindberg: I already modified a mistake in my text. As for your question, Iranian law defines two different rights, one of them being "moral rights" and the other "material rights". In article 4, it's said that the "moral rights" is not restricted to place and time and can't be transferred. In article 13, the law is talking about the "material rights", which I think is the right to the material benefits (such as monetary ones) from the work. Did I answer your question? --Mhhossein talk 12:56, 26 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
        • Yes, many copyright laws don't use the term "copyright" but instead have "moral rights" (which can be indefinite and are usually not transferrable), and "economic rights", which is the equivalent of "copyright" and is the part we are concerned about when licensing. The Iranian law looks to have the exact same breakdowns. My question was on Article 16; I'll rephrase below. Carl Lindberg (talk) 15:27, 26 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: @Jameslwoodward and Yann: As per the Iranian copyright law, which I wrote above, the "material rights" of the works created as a result of an order, belongs to the client until 30 years after the creation date. It's logical to assume that the the work was created by the order of the governing regime at the time. So, the rights belonged to a 'legal person' (the government) and according to the article 16, "in cases where the work belongs to a legal person or rights are transferred to a legal person, works fall into the public domain after 30 years from the date of publication or public presentation." The work was presented publicly in 1972 and it should be in PD now. --Mhhossein talk 13:13, 26 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
One may find the En version of the law here. See the Articles 13 and 16. --Mhhossein talk 13:44, 26 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@Mhhossein: OK, so it would seem that works commissioned by a legal person then get capped at 30 years from creation, as simply commissioning a work would cause the commissioning party to own copyright (which is not nearly as strict as a U.S. work for hire). My question on Article 16 is about "work belongs to a legal person"; does that mean physical ownership of the work, or just the ownership of the economic/material rights. That article does seem to at least say that when a legal person owns the rights (either by initial ownership, or by transfer) that the term gets capped at 30 years from creation. But you could also read it as when the physical work is initially owned by a legal person, that the term may also be limited even though the original author may retain the rights. It may make more sense to interpret that as only when the rights are owned by a legal person, but I wasn't sure with the English translation. The English translation is also here, btw. In 2010, Iran non-retroactively increased the Article 12 term to fifty years after the author's death, to bring it closer to Berne Convention conformance, but it appears they left Article 16 alone, so such works are still capped to 30 years from creation. They also earlier added computer programs as protected works. There is some discussion that they may reform the law again soon, probably to bring the law up to to more modern standards, as they may want to conform to the WTO/Berne Convention, but I don't think anything has officially passed yet. Carl Lindberg (talk) 15:27, 26 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
It seems to me the logical interpretation that when a work is commissioned, the rights over the result belongs to the contractee. I know that copyright doesn't always work that way. Regards, Yann (talk) 19:07, 26 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
OK, let's assume that Iran is different from almost all of the rest of the world in this respect. That still leaves us with the fact that 30 years after 1972 was 2002, six years after the URAA date. So, even making the assumption which I have argued against, we still can't keep it. .     Jim . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 22:49, 26 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@Jameslwoodward: There is no URAA date for Iran (at least yet). It will be in the future when and if that happens. Iranian copyrights exist only in Iran right now; Commons will respect their law per policy but that is the only one we need to. Secondly, photos of buildings are not derivative works in the U.S. so that would not matter even if a building is/was under copyright on the URAA date. The U.S. just needs a license for the photograph. As for the transfer aspect, there used to be lots of copyright laws where a commissioning party owned the copyright (the UK used to have that provision), so it's not that unusual. The Iranian law may simply still have that in there (if they modernize it, that is likely something that will change). Carl Lindberg (talk) 07:44, 27 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@Clindberg: Hi, as far as I understand, Article 16 is referring to "economic/material rights". --Mhhossein talk 14:13, 28 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Commons:Deletion requests/File:Khayam mausoleum 01.JPG

WFH for 55 years ago (See also:Category:Omar Khayyam Mausoleum). MasoodHA (talk) 11:41, 20 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

 Oppose Again. If an architect were to work for hire, he would be constrained from using details or features that he had included in any building in subsequent buildings. Therefore, architects rarely work on a work for hire basis in any country that I am aware of. No one has provided any evidence to show that Iran is different from the rest of the world. .     Jim . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 20:49, 20 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@Ebrahim, Mardetanha, and Mmxx: Could you please have a look at this? Thanks, Yann (talk) 05:16, 21 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@Yann: Can theese cases be closed? Or maybe the above discussion should be moved to COM:VPC? It does not seem that any Iranian user is willing to help us to resolve these cases. So IMO, keeping them open here is pointless. Ankry (talk) 07:57, 2 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I have opened a thread on COM:VPC. Very few people speaking Farsi and having a knowledge of Iranian copyright law are active, but Mhhossein said he will look into it. Regards, Yann (talk) 16:51, 4 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Again, this hinges on the question of whether the building was a work-for-hire or not. As I have said elsewhere, architects rarely workon a work-for-hire basis because that would mean that they could not use details from building A when designing building B later unless they got a license from the the owner of building A. While there is a possibility that Iran is different from the rest of the world in this regard, it seems to me that that must be proven here. Unless someone experienced in architecture contracts in Iran can speak to the subject, I think we must assume that Iran follows the rest of the world in this and that, therefore, the buidlings are pma 50. .     Jim . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 12:06, 23 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Not sure it's a U.S. style work for hire. Iran is not a member of the Berne Convention, so they may not follow norms the rest of the world does. Secondly, I'm not sure about Article 16, which could also shorten the copyright term, while leaving the copyright with the architect depending on the meaning. Carl Lindberg (talk) 17:16, 25 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Here is the comment, copied from ANU:

"Hello, this is MarkVII88. I am not sure if I am putting this information in the correct spot as the only thing I know how to do on Wikimedia Commons is upload my images and post to monthly photo contests. I am sorry for the confusion about the copyright info for my uploaded images. My name is actually Lee Stirling and my commonly used username is MarkVII88. This username dates back to my very first car which was a 1988 Lincoln MarkVII. About the copyright info, the camera that I am using is a used Nikon D700 that used to belong to my father-in-law whose name is A. Mark Gadue. I did not realize that he had that information stamped into the EXIF data for the images that come off this camera. Since receiving your first notice about my images, I delved into the camera menu and updated this copyright information to my own name. For any confusion I apologize. I understand if you still feel the need to delete any and all submissions I have made with the old image copyright." — Preceding unsigned comment added by MarkVII88 (talk • contribs) 13:57, 16 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Perhaps it is just because it is a wonderful lighthouse picture, but I am inclined to believe MarkVI88.  Support .     Jim . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 11:55, 23 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Discussion

Interesting. Albania has gone from having no FOP to having FOP for all works, including text, permanently located in certain places. The recent change at Commons:Freedom_of_panorama#Albania says "permanently located in public ways, street or places". Google translates Article 82 to read "permanently located in the street, shuttles, parks, or other squares that are accessible to the public", which is much narrower -- "places" could mean almost anything. I think we need a trusted person who reads Albanian to interpret Article 82 for us.

However, it is clear that we need to restore most of these. A fast look suggests that some of them are indoors and therefore do not qualify unless "places" is read very broadly. .     Jim . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 17:54, 22 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks @Gikü: for ping. This one, in general is translated correctly. Detailed translation as it is in Article 82: 1. Reproduction of works without the authorization of the author or copyright holder and without remuneration, which are permanently located on the street, landings, parks or other squares which are accessible by the public, as well as distribution, transmission to the public of these reproductions. 2. The works referred to in paragraph 1 of this article can not be reproduced in three-dimensional form. 3. With regard to the reproduction of architectural structures, paragraph 1 of this Article shall apply only with respect to the external appearance of the architectural structure. 4. In the cases referred to in paragraph 1 of this Article, the source and authorship shall be indicated these copies, when this is possible.--Liridon (talk) 19:04, 22 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Liridon, as I said above, "public ways, street or places" is very different and much broader than "the street, landings, parks or other squares". The former could include indoor places and many more outdoor places. If your translation in the paragraph immediately above is correct, then we need to change the one at Commons:Freedom_of_panorama#Albania. .     Jim . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 20:36, 22 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I'm sure there's a better English word here than "squares", because I'm having no success in making it make sense in the context. Given no knowledge of Albanian and the discussion above, I'd guess "places" was a good translation. Do you mean a w:town square? That doesn't really make sense in context, since streets, and parks aren't squares. I'm not exactly sure what a landing (or shuttle, as it's put above) means in this context. It's clear that it's pretty broad, but the exact meaning is not coming through in the English translations.--Prosfilaes (talk) 20:43, 22 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Prosfilaes, I don't see any problem with "squares". Our translation of the Spanish law and our clarification of the German law both use it. .     Jim . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 21:17, 22 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
The Spanish law is translated as saying "Works permanently located in parks, streets, squares or other public places ...". Our interpretation of the German phrasing says "outside on public ways, streets or places (e.g. squares, plazas)". In those cases, squares means w:town squares, I think, and the overall statements are inclusive enough I don't feel I have to worry about that specific word over much. But in "the street, landings, parks or other squares", it can't mean w:town squares in the sense I understand that term, because streets and parks aren't town squares.--Prosfilaes (talk) 22:59, 22 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Hi, The wording seems to mean "public places outside of buildings". So it would not cover, for example, railway and metro stations, which are covered in some other countries. Is that right? Regards, Yann (talk) 02:47, 23 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
"squares" (sheshe) means w:town square, and the other word "sheshpushim" that I have translated "landing" is something related to squares, unfamiliar word for me, so I used google translate for that. @Margott: or @Arianit: maybe can give us a better explanation.--Liridon (talk) 11:20, 23 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Do we think it is as broad as Yann suggests with "public places outside of buildings". What about works sitting on private property that are visible from public places? I would include them because otherwise most buildings in a town would not be covered. .     Jim . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 11:36, 23 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
It's tough using Google Translate for legal stuff when trying to determine the edges like this. When I put the law into Google, I don't see "other squares" but rather just "squares". I get permanently placed on public roads by public roads, shuttles, parks or squares. The word sheshpushime is "shuttles" there, which doesn't make much sense. Putting in that word individually gets "landing" or "level landing", and sheshpushim gives "vestibule", which makes a tiny bit more sense but would include the entrances to buildings as part of the law (though not anywhere else inside). It does sort of sound like it would be works put in public outdoor places, or meant to be seen from those places (I think the law says situation on or by the named places, so something on private property just off of those public places would seem fine -- but probably not something you can just glimpse at long distances. I suspect we don't have a good translation for that sheshpushime word yet. But it does sound closer to the German one, and Yann's interpretation, though the law does not seem to have an open-ended "or other similar" wording, but rather the named locations. Not sure what examples there would be of outdoor public places that are not named though. On the other hand... I just found an English translation here which translates the clause as: There is permitted the reproduction of works, without the authorization of the author or the holder of the copyright and without remuneration, which are permanently located in the street, public squares, parks or other spaces accessible to the public, as well as the distribution to the public of these reproductions. That sounds broader, though still feels like outdoor-only. I'm not sure what the source of that translation is. Carl Lindberg (talk) 17:12, 23 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

In fact, I expected this discussion to be initially in the FoP discussion page, and after 48 hours I took the initiative to change the Albanian section of the article. Anyway, after I put the translation from google translate, I made a little more correct translation, explaining what the law refers to. @Carl Lindberg The best translation of the word "Sheshpushim" it is "Break square" because it is a compounded word by Shesh = Square and Pushim = Break (Bes-ARTTalk 19:33, 23 February 2018 (UTC))[reply]
OK, great, thanks. That seems in line with the other English translation I found and linked above. Just one question -- what are the words which indicate "or other open areas" ? It does seem like an explicit list of locations otherwise. But it does seem restricted to outdoor locations only, and things like train stations may not qualify. In general though, for buildings and most public works, it seems like a pretty full FoP either way. Mainly a question on the small details. Carl Lindberg (talk) 17:32, 25 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Hello Carl Lindberg, actually "or other open areas" should be translated differently, the Albanian phrase is: ose sheshe të tjera and it actually means or other squares. I think the first one should be translated like this: Its allowed the reproduction without the authorization of the author or the copyright holder and without reward, of works permanently located in the streets, vestibules, parks, or other squares that are accessible to the public, as well the distribution and delivery to the public of these reproductions. @ User:Bes-ART what do you think? Open areas can be interpreted differently. --Margott (talk) 08:28, 27 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
User:Bes-ART, Margott, could you clarify "vestibules", please? A vestibule is an interior space, but 82-3 clearly limits the FoP to exterior appearance. .     Jim . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 10:38, 27 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Jameslwoodward, Margott, I think the current translation made by me and improved by Kj1595 it is the best translation that we can made, HERE.
1) Reproduction of works permanently found in public spaces: streets, squares, parks, rest areas and other open areas that are accessible to the public is allowed without the authorization and compensation from and towards the author or copyright holder.

There is no reference to "vestibules" in the first paragraph because the only translation we can do of the Albanian word "sheshpushime" it is "rest areas". And when it says "other open areas" refers to all the spaces that are accessible to the public, such as the terraces; external private spaces BUT open to the public; and other things like these. (Bes-ARTTalk 11:03, 27 February 2018 (UTC))[reply]

In Albania we call sheshpushim also the hall inside a building, so its not limited to exterior appearance. And actually the only Albanian word which make sense for vestibule is sheshpushim. So in this case is a bit tricky. Probably we should translate in smth like "Exterior Public Space"? --Margott (talk) 11:17, 27 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Im not sure of that. For the internal spaces to which you refer we use mostly the word "holl" which can be translated as "lobby" or aslo "vestibule". As I said above, the word "Sheshpushim" is a compound word and the right translation would be "Break Square", but it does not make much sense in English and the only solution is "Rest areas". (Bes-ARTTalk 11:30, 27 February 2018 (UTC))[reply]

Thank you all for your contributions to this discussion. I think we have an agreement on the language. Now, getting back to the problem at hand, I think we need to restore most, but not all of these, as some appear to be indoors which are not covered by the new law. Comments? .     Jim . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 14:47, 27 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Reason: A valid OTRS permission has been provided – ticket:2017082310020166.

As an OTRS agent (verify), I will investigate the undeleted media and make sure that the permission is sufficient to keep it (rights on media work + depicted work, FOP, copyright owner, country specific restrictions, etc.). I will also update the license (if needed) and add the appropriate OTRS template.

 Support Reopened, as requested above, by a non-sockpuppet. While the requester may be a sock, these are useful images -- portraits of notable people. Refusing to restore them here means that sooner or later someone else is going to upload them again. That's an (admittedly tiny) waste of computer resources and a larger waste of human resources. As a CU, I have good reason to not like sockpuppets, but as an ordinary Commons user, I don't like seeing our human resources wasted making uploads a second time when we already have the images.

Also note that I don't like to see UnDRs closed in less than 24 hours unless the result is restoration for obvious reasons -- the community had an informal agreement about that some years ago, but it seems to have fallen by the wayside. .     Jim . . .

 Oppose Owning a physical copy of a photograph does not make you the copyright holder. Copyright is held by the photographer or his heirs, and only they can grant a licence that is compatible with the requirements of Wikimedia Commons. That said, the non-commercial licence printed on the photo itself would also have been a reason for deletion.

File:Maureen O'Hara Awarded Oscar for Lifetime Achievement - Nov. 8, 2014.jpg

This photo is the only proper photo for this subheading - in it's proper context. Owned by June Parker Beck who took the photo at the event. It properly shows her holding the Oscar and it is the only photo that respects Ms. O'Hara and her memory. To show any other photo that shows her in a candid position is disrespectful to her. — Preceding unsigned comment added by PaulPyle (talk • contribs) 22:38, 27 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

PaulPyle and the other account that uploaded this same file Lelajay101 (talk · contribs) are suspected sock puppets of Dingledancer (talk · contribs) [all three accounts have uploaded files of O'Hara with the same rationale and added them to her English Wikipedia article with similar edit summaries and tagging the edit as minor -- there are few to no edits outside of this narrow interest].

 Oppose When you uploaded the image, you claimed that you were the photographer (that it was "own work"). Now you say that someone else was the photographer. That makes it difficult to believe that you are correct. In any case, "private resources of Mrs. Karolina Smeda-Drzycimsk" is not an acceptable source for Commons. In order to restore the image, we will need the actual photographer to send a free license using OTRS or, if Smeda-Drzycimska has a formal written license from the photographer allowing her to freely license the image, we will need evidence of that, also using OTRS. .     Jim . . .
