Photographer is unknown. kalomoira.net claims ownership, but is host of countless obvious copyright violations. No response from uploader about who is the photographer since 2006. Rob (talk) 05:09, 18 September 2008 (UTC)
 * The uploader is no longer active so it would be unrealistic to delete because they did not respond. Grk1011/Stephen (talk) 14:03, 12 October 2008 (UTC)

Official artwork - NO evidence of OTRS Sfan00 IMG (talk) 16:49, 18 September 2008 (UTC)

I created the artwork and own it. I officially allow it to be published in wikipedia pages. If there is some further part of this process, please let me know so that the image's use can be continually used by Wikipedia. regards.

Derivative work of copyrighted statue - statue was unveiled in 1998, per James_Longstreet dave pape (talk) 20:00, 18 September 2008 (UTC)


 * I do not understand the issue. This is a photograph taken of a monument owned by the US government in a US National Park. In WP:IUP it says "Photographs of three-dimensional objects almost always generate a new copyright, though others may continue to hold copyright in items depicted in such photographs." Therefore, in this case the photographer owns the new copyright, which was placed into the public domain, as described in the image page. Hal Jespersen (talk) 21:42, 18 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Yes, the photographer holds copyright on the photo, but as a derivative work of a copyrighted statue, the sculptor's permission is required to release it under a free license. Being owned by the US government does not make a work public domain - that would be the case only if the sculptor were a Federal employee.  The photo may potentially qualify for fair use, but would need a rationale.  --dave pape (talk) 03:39, 19 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Right. The USA doesn't have a freedom of panorama law which many other countries have. That kind of law allows any photograph taken of and from a permanent structure in a public place to be exempt from any copyright other than the photographer's. Stifle (talk) 15:06, 19 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Well, OK, this photograph is not all that important, but you are essentially saying that no photograph of any US statue, monument, public art, or building (a work presumably copyrighted by the architect) created in the last century can appear in Wikipedia, except for those rare cases where fair use may be applicable. I guess you probably have a lot of deleting to do. Hal Jespersen (talk) 15:58, 19 September 2008 (UTC)


 * U.S. law does include an exception for photos of architecture. Older sculptures that are PD are okay.  Photos of copyrighted sculptures can be fair use in articles about the sculpture.  Otherwise, yes, there are still a number of problem images that gradually come to light.  --dave pape (talk) 18:11, 19 September 2008 (UTC)
