Useful US old work copyright templates:
 * PD-US-no notice


 * PD-US-not renewed


 * PD-US-1978-89 - not this one, but the one on Commons, which reads:


 * According to The Compendium of U.S. Copyright Office Practices: Chapter 2200, § 2207.1(C) at p. 18:


 * "A notice of copyright on the dust jacket of a book is not an acceptable notice for the book, because the dust jacket is not permanently attached to the book. Likewise, a notice appearing in a book is not an acceptable notice for the dust jacket or any material appearing on that dust jacket, even if the book refers to the jacket or material appearing on the jacket.".


 * For Copyright renewal in the United States: for works (books and films), with US copyright notices from 1925-1963.
 * Internet Archive Copyright renewal records: https://archive.org/details/copyrightrecords has through 1978; search in text, not metadata, look up to 28 years after initial publication.
 * https://cocatalog.loc.gov/ has 1978-, sort by original dates, renewals will be earlier, and registration numbers will start with RE.
 * Recent (2022) Commons deletion case about an EBay image front and back showing lack of copyright notice: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Deletion_requests/File:JimLondos.jpg

Finding images

 * Google image search, Labeled for reuse with modification
 * Openverse - WordPress search, for when Flickr Image Search goes down, which it often does.
 * https://www.bram.us/2008/01/12/my-priceless-flickr-tip-how-to-find-the-original-flickr-photo-url-and-user-from-a-static-flickr-image-url/ Got a link like //farm3.static.flickr.com/2085/2177060015_258bcfaff9_m.jpg and want to find out which user posted it, more images by that user, see the full-size version, etc? From the URL you’ve got take extract the image name (2177060015_258bcfaff9_m.jpg) and split it on the underscore. The first part is the photoID, the second part is the hash/salt and (if there) the third part the size (Full format: photoId_hash_size.jpg). Now append that photoId to http://flickr.com/photo.gne?id= and *MAGIC* there you have it, the Original Flickr Photo URL (and the user) 🙂 The example above would be transformed to http://flickr.com/photo.gne?id=2177060015
 * https://www.voanews.com/s - note that that most photos on site are from AP or Reuters, so not public domain - look for VOA watermark or label. VOA videos are also good.
 * Project Gutenberg (Google Search, because the onsite search is terrible) find a book, either go to the More files... section, look in the Images folder to see whether there are any, or at the HTML version (to see the images in context)
 * YouTube (The Google image search failed in summer 2017, soon after I left, and hasn't been fixed since, despite my writing my old team)
 * To get the default YouTube thumbnail screenshot from a video at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KGtps--wNc4 go to https://i.ytimg.com/vi/KGtps--wNc4/maxresdefault.jpg
 * Bookmarklet to convert YouTube page to Wikimedia Commons form info:

javascript:function q(s){return document.querySelector(s)}q("#expand").click;function t(s){return q(s).innerText.trim.replace(/\|/g,"|")}setTimeout(function{document.documentElement.innerText="\n"+(q("a[href=\"https://www.youtube.com/t/creative_commons\"]")?"====\n\n":"Standard YouTube License (no good for Wikimedia Commons)")+"\n\n";var a=document.createElement("a");a.href="https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Upload&uploadformstyle=basic";a.target="_blank";a.innerText="Basic Upload Form";document.documentElement.appendChild(a);},100);


 * Vimeo
 * Similar bookmarklet for Vimeo:

javascript:function q(s){return document.querySelector(s);}function t(s){return q(s)?q(s).innerText.trim.replace(/\|/g,"|"):""}var l=q("[rel=license]");l=l?"":"All rights reserved (no good for Wikimedia Commons)";document.documentElement.innerText="\n"+l+"\n\n";var a=document.createElement("a");a.href="https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Upload&uploadformstyle=basic";a.target="_blank";a.innerText="Basic Upload Form";document.documentElement.appendChild(a);
