The photographs are derivative works -- they infringe on the copyrights for the three trophies. The Tim Horton Trophy cannot be earlier than 1927, but it may be out of copyright. However, that must be proven. The college championships date to the 1990s and the Women's trophy appears to be even more recent.

• Keep. Canadian copyright law allows people to freely photograph 3D works of art. The copyright for such works lies with the photographer. Resolute (talk) 23:44, 9 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The first of these is not a Canadian work. The third is a world trophy, although it is apparently shown in Canada. In any case, however, that is true only if the work is permanently located:

"a sculpture or work of artistic craftsmanship or a cast or model of a sculpture or work of artistic craftsmanship, that is permanently situated in a public place or building"

It is obvious that none of the three photos shows the trophy in a permanent place. .     Jim . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 14:44, 10 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Well, if three images have three different scenarios, then you need to not be lazy and create three separate discussions. So on top of my keep, which I maintain, I'll also add a procedural keep. Beyond that, I pretty much retired from this project after getting tired of people destroying the work of others, so go do whatever. Resolute (talk) 19:06, 10 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Deleted: Trophies that are won and remain in a display case visible to the public are likely to fall under Canadian FoP. While it is certainly possible for them to be removed from public display in the future, they were situated in a public place with the intent that they remain there permanently. Trophies that regularly travel around are unlikely to meet the permanence requirement, especially those that travel internationally. There's been no argument made that these trophies are actually PD in the US and their origin countries, and I can't come up with one. --AntiCompositeNumber (talk) 17:18, 23 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
