==[[:Commons:Deletion requests/Files in Category:Photographs by Pavel Troshkin]]==
Images were published after 2015, expiration of posthumous copyright protection of photographer after death, or before 1954. Overly hypothetical doubts by now-banned user who made many overzealous deletion requests. [[User:Kges1901|Kges1901]] ([[User talk:Kges1901|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 18:16, 15 August 2024 (UTC)

{{o}} As I noted in the DR, these are either under URAA copyright, as are all Russian images published after 1942, or, if unpublished until recently, are under copyright in Russia. In either case we cannot keep them. .&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;<strong><strong>Jim</strong></strong> . . . <small><small><small>[[User:Jameslwoodward|(Jameslwoodward)]]</small></small></small> ([[User talk:Jameslwoodward|talk to me]]) 16:16, 16 August 2024 (UTC)
:We usually assume that old works were published at the time of creation, unless evidence says otherwise. If I understood correctly, the author was a reporter for RIAN, so I see no reason to assume that these pictures were not published at the time. The first file in the list, [[:File:Сессия Верховного Совета СССР первого созыва (2).jpg]], is dated 1938. That may not be sufficient for all images, but it seems OK for this one.

::Troshkin was a reporter for the newspaper Izvestiya, and his photographs were published at the time in Izvestiya, Krasnaya Zvezda, and other papers. --[[User:Kges1901|Kges1901]] ([[User talk:Kges1901|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 20:19, 16 August 2024 (UTC)
:::[[User:Clindberg|Carl Lindberg]] also made an interesting argument about the country of origin. If these newspapers were distributed in the Soviet Union, they were simultaneously published in all successor nations, and that under the Berne Convention, the shorter term applies. [[User:Yann|Yann]] ([[User talk:Yann|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 20:23, 16 August 2024 (UTC)
::::These newspapers were distributed across the entire Soviet Union, not just on the territory of the RSFSR. In any case, the definition of publication under Russian copyright law is that the back of the photograph was marked by the artist in the appropriate way, which for war photographs implies that it passed through censorship processes and could be published. Since most of these photographs are not taken from the photographer's negatives, it is reasonable to assume that they were marked on the back, and recently digitized images appeared on the internet after 2014, when the posthumous publication copyright term expired.

::::''Carl Lindberg'' is not sole in such assumption. But this is just assumption so far, it is not supported by court decisions (of 12-15 post-Soviet states) or jurisprudential literature (as I have known on today, I continue to seek it, to confirm or refute it). As I see such questions in court decisions (of several post-Soviet states) or jurisprudential literature - the concrete Soviet republic is place of publishing (because, the civil legislation was on republican level) or the RF is place of publishing, even if work was published outside of the RSFSR (as USSR-successor on union level).

::::: I'm not sure there is any test case over the Berne definition of "country of origin".  The question would not come up internally for Russian law or that of the old republics, most likely.  It would only matter in a country ''outside'' those which implement the rule of the shorter term, and over a work which that question may be involved.  Not sure I know of any, anywhere.  But, the Berne Convention is pretty specific in its definition when it comes to works simultaneously published in multiple countries, and that is the definition that Commons follows.  Of course, the Soviet Union was not a member, though most all subsequent countries are now.  One complication is the U.S. status -- the definition of "source country" for the URAA would follow different logic than Berne, the country of "greatest contacts with the work", which would be Russia.  Russia was 50pma on the URAA date, but I think had some wartime extensions, which I think push these over the line, such that only ones published before 1929 (or created before 1904, if unpublished) would be PD in the U.S., regardless of current status in Russia, or the country of origin (if different).  [[User:Clindberg|Carl Lindberg]] ([[User talk:Clindberg|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 19:09, 27 August 2024 (UTC)
:::::: I do not know such cases (on the Berne definition) too, but in the Russian copyright legislation there are 3 criterions of copyrightability - (1) the Russian territory (the territory of the Russian Federation (the RSFSR previously, not the USSR) since Nov.7, 1917 to today) in the borders on the date of publication, (2) the Russian citizenship on the date of publication, and (3) international treaties.<br>Moreover, there is similar situation with reports of telegraph agencies or press-releases- they are reported/released worldwide formally, but the country indicated in report/release is the country of origin (some reports/releases have two of more indicated countries). [[User:Alex Spade|Alex Spade]] ([[User talk:Alex Spade|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 22:12, 28 August 2024 (UTC)
::::::: Right -- the Berne country of origin pretty much never applies to internal works, or even most situations involving foreign works.  The specific definition in Berne pretty much only matters if a country is applying the rule of the shorter term for a foreign work to have lesser protection than their own works normally do; the Berne definition would have to be used in that case to determine the country, since that is in the treaty.  In pretty much any other situation, more sensical definitions can be used (which even the US did, with the URAA -- the "source country" there is pretty much the same thing, but differs quite a bit once it comes to simultaneous publication).  But however nonsensical it seems, Commons uses the Berne definition, since that should control when works expire in many countries (even if that virtually never comes up in a court case to test it). [[User:Clindberg|Carl Lindberg]] ([[User talk:Clindberg|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 01:15, 29 August 2024 (UTC)
{{od}} Another aspect to consider is how publication is defined. For example, in this [https://elibrary.ru/download/elibrary_24229029_98887307.pdf academic article about Russian copyright law], it is stated that an author, transferring a work to another by agreement, gives consent to publication, and thus the work can be [[:ru:Википедия:Форум/Авторское право#Закон о сиротских произведениях|considered published]]. This means that if Troshkin transferred his negatives to his employer (Izvestiya), the works would be legally considered published. Since all photos in question are of a professional nature, there is no reason to assume that Troshkin kept any of these photographs in his personal possession and did not transfer them to his employer. Considering this, then all of his photos would have been legally published when he transferred them to his employer, that is, definitely before his death in 1944, and all these photographs would be firmly public domain. [[User:Kges1901|Kges1901]] ([[User talk:Kges1901|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 08:13, 8 September 2024 (UTC)
* Term ''publication'' (''обнародование'' or ''опубликование'' in Russian, and these are two different term in the Russian copyright) is defined in the paragraph one and two of part 1 of [https://www.consultant.ru/document/cons_doc_LAW_64629/ca5bad21533745bc8f4ad6f42607820dd60a1436/ article 1268 of the Civil Code]. Consent to publication is not publication (right for exercise of some action is not action). And mentioned resent discussion on the Ru-Wiki for orphan works (where I was the main speaker) does not matter for Troshkin's works - author of photos (Troshkin) is known. [[User:Alex Spade|Alex Spade]] ([[User talk:Alex Spade|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 09:03, 8 September 2024 (UTC)<br>At the same time if there is a source for original of photo and its reverse side, and such original (reverse side) is marked by author name and a year, then this year can be considered as year of publication according to the last paragraph of [https://www.consultant.ru/cons/cgi/online.cgi?req=doc;base=LAW;n=34159 article 475 of the Soviet Russian Civil Code]. [[User:Alex Spade|Alex Spade]] ([[User talk:Alex Spade|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 09:22, 8 September 2024 (UTC)
:*In terms of copyright I am specifically discussing the nuances of ''обнародование'' because the term contains a broader meaning than simply ''опубликование'', and the expiration of copyright (if work is posthumously published) is calculated from ''обнародование'' and not ''опубликование'' of a work – regarding photographs, that public display of a work counts as ''обнародование'' while not ''опубликование'' in the strict sense, therefore opening broader possibilities for the release of a work during Troshkin's lifetime. 
::Regarding originals, another aspect is that at least some of Troshkin's photographs were sent into TASS and copyright thus transferred to TASS, falling under PD-Russia under the TASS aspect. For example [https://ru.bidspirit.com/ui/lotPage/oldpaper/source/search/auction/23834/lot/124507/%D0%A4%D0%BE%D1%82%D0%BE%D0%B3%D1%80%D0%B0%D1%84%D0%B8%D1%8F-%D0%A4%D0%BE%D1%82%D0%BE%D0%BA%D0%BB%D1%88%D0%B5-%D0%A2%D0%90%D0%A1%D0%A1-18?lang=ru this photograph] was marked on the back with TASS copyright stamp even though Troshkin was an Izvestiya correspondent. 
:: In any case presence of markings on the back is the most hopeful approach to this problem of posthumous copyright since any photograph/negative with a description had to have been marked on the back with a caption and name of the author, since Troshkin's photographs presumably entered into a centralized group of photographs cleared for publication, as his photographs were not just published in Izvestiya, but in Krasnaya Zvezda, Vechernyaya Moskva, other newspapers, and books (for example a large quantity of his photographs taken during the Battle of Khalkhin Gol appeared in this [http://militera.org/books/pdf/memo/sb_boi-u-kalhin-gola1940.pdf 1940 book without mention of his name]. Secondly finding an exact date for negatives such as [https://goskatalog.ru/portal/#/collections?id=24948736 this example] would have been impossible if there was no marking on the back. The fact that exact dates taken are available for negatives indicates that they were also marked in some way with captions, dates and names of author. Examples of such author name and year markings on the back of a Troshkin photograph include [https://goskatalog.ru/portal/#/collections?id=5159614], [https://catalog.shm.ru/entity/OBJECT/2354115],  [https://goskatalog.ru/portal/#/collections?id=24049932], [https://goskatalog.ru/portal/#/collections?id=24049936], [https://goskatalog.ru/portal/#/collections?id=24049935], [https://goskatalog.ru/portal/#/collections?id=24049933], [https://goskatalog.ru/portal/#/collections?id=24049929].

::* Yes, ''обнародование''  is wider than ''опубликование'', but the fact (and the date) of ''обнародование'' must be proved (for example for some painting "This painting was created in 1923 and was shown on ZYX-art exhibition in 1925, see reference link").
::* Yes, if photowork is marked by TASS (no matter by TASS only or by TASS+name_of_real_photograph), this photowork is TASS-work. [[User:Alex Spade|Alex Spade]] ([[User talk:Alex Spade|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 14:56, 8 September 2024 (UTC)

It seems to have been deleted because it was considered a derivative work. But actually, checking it from the Archive, it does not appear to be a derivative of any particular depiction of Ali. There are many similar illustrations of him with many variations, which are ubiquitous.

{{o}} The argument above certainly has some force, but side by side the deleted image and the one cited at [[Commons:Deletion_requests/File:Mola_Ali.jpg]] look very similar.

:@[[User:Jameslwoodward|Jameslwoodward]]: This quote from page 39-40 of the referenced book implies that some of those features you mention are very common in his contemporary portraits: {{quote|Contemporary portraits of Imam Ali also give importance to the face. The viewer’s attention is drawn to the Imam’s face by a light illuminating the upper part of his face, that is, the forehead, nasal bone and cheekbones. However, the iconographic detailing of the face often differs between images to present a variety of physiognomic traits all held to represent Imam Ali. The most commonly produced and distributed portraits, which I call the ‘conventional’ facial type, are illustrated in Figures 2, 3, 12 and 14. Imam Ali is shown in part profile with lofty forehead and wide, a little oversized, eyes with large pupils. The high eyebrows accentuate the size of the eye. Ali avoids eye contact with the viewer and the gaze seems to be directed slightly upwards with the look of a far-sighted visionary, creating an almost dream-like appearance. The face is oval, and the cheekbones round. The lips are full rather than thin. Cheekbones and lips are partly covered by a dark, thick, well-trimmed beard.}} Also, actually, I can't entirely agree that the public domain image I shared does not have these similarities.

*[[:File:Netflix email titled "Choose a new plan now to keep watching", 2024.png|File:Netflix email titled "Choose a new plan now to keep watching", 2024.png]] (image 2)

I think image 1 complies with {{tl|PD-text}}. It is pretty much the same text (with a total of three sentences), but slightly modified for each of the four text boxes. All the text does is describe what each plan contains, with no literary language. More complicated files have been kept for {{tl|PD-text}}. See:

Image 2 should also comply with {{tl|PD-text}}. The email is very short, with only a total of six sentences, and two headers, that describes the discontinuation of a subscription plan. If it's too complicated, I would like to ask whether I could upload a new version with the body blurred out, only keeping the title.

Country of origin is the US. Note the "canceled" spelling in image 2. The threshold of originality seems to be high for short phrases in the US. See [https://fairuse.stanford.edu/2003/09/09/copyright_protection_for_short/], which says "Copyright laws disfavor protection for short phrases. Such claims are viewed with suspicion by the Copyright Office...", and that originality is not a matter of the number of words used, but rather "the uniqueness and value of the phrases as well as the way in which you (and the borrower) use them." (See [[:Commons:Deletion_requests/File:Hillary_Clinton_2016_DNC_Speech.webm|Commons:Deletion_requests/File:Hillary_Clinton_2016_DNC_Speech.webm]] for an example of a PD short phrase) [[User:FunnyMath|FunnyMath]] ([[User talk:FunnyMath|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 23:03, 3 November 2024 (UTC)

:: Actually the Roy Hamilton one needs VRT since it's from Facebook per Flickr metadata and that Flickr account looks like a license laundering account. https://www.flickr.com/photos/196198494@N02/52261708207 [[User:Abzeronow|Abzeronow]] ([[User talk:Abzeronow|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 18:12, 10 November 2024 (UTC)
:::@[[User:Abzeronow|Abzeronow]], Thank you for clarifying the potential issue with the Roy Hamilton image.
:::Regarding the two volunteer images, I believe they could contribute to sections related to Indian non-profits, volunteerism and children's education along with related categories.
:::As for the image clicked by me on World Stroke Day of Dr. Ritwiz Bihari, I noticed that there are relatively few images in the Commons category for World Stroke Day. I thought this image could help add to that, especially as it highlights an important aspect of stroke awareness in India. I hope it can serve as a useful contribution to the category.
:::However, if you still feel they may not meet the criteria for inclusion, I completely understand. Thank you once again for your thoughtful feedback and for considering and responding to my request.

== [[:File:David Steinberg, author, photographer.jpg]] ==

This is a mistake -- another AI mistake it seems. 

David Steinberg is the subject of the photograph. He is also the person who made the photograph! (He has been a professional photographer for several decades)  He is also the wikicommons contributor who uploaded the digital file! I asked the photographer to upload an image through the wikicommons upload form so that I could use it for a wiki article I was (eventually) going to write. 

Because I know how complicated the upload form was, I actually did a zoom call with him to help him sign up for wikicommons and guide him through the upload process. (If you don't believe me, message this user to confirm this! or go to the [https://www.nearbycafe.com/loveandlust/davidsteinberg/contact/ contact form on his photography site] )  

As far as I know, there is no wikicommons requirement that photographers give photos exclusively to wikicommons. (Indeed, that requirement would itself be a violation of the creative commons (CC) license. In fact, as the original upload can show, Steinberg clearly marked it with a CC license (and in fact, he was already familiar with CC licenses and his personal website also uses CC licenses. Also, his book THING WE CALL SEX explicitly uses a CC license.
