Non-free status
This item on commons as violating the copyrights of the building owners in South Korea, as the country lacks freedom of panorama laws. However, U.S. law explicitly exempts photographs of buildings from the copyright of that building. English Wikipedia - but not Commons - only respects the laws of the United States when determining copyright (this policy is a long-standing one that exists for convenience and legal reasons as well as the fact that the English is the first language of the US). As such, we can host this image here, but please do not move it to Commons. Magog the Ogre (talk) 02:44, 17 February 2011 (UTC)


 * I think the deletion was unneeded. I requested undeletion here Commons:Commons:Undeletion_requests/Current_requests. --MGA73 (talk) 17:49, 9 July 2011 (UTC)

I was thinking about doing that myself. Magog the Ogre (talk) 19:26, 9 July 2011 (UTC)
