 * Uploader with professional-looking, web-resolution images, mostly done with different camera models according to the EXIF, one of which was already caught to be a copyright violation (File:.Donovan Hall, Loyola Law School (Loyola Marymount University).jpg). I doubt this is truly an own work, and in fact I bet most others by this uploader are copyvios as well. Magog the Ogre (talk) 05:18, 23 May 2012 (UTC)

Comment I've marked the file with. C3F2k (Questions, comments, complaints?) 14:44, 23 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Post-1945 Canadian photo so unfree in the United States. See similar discussion at Commons:Commons:Deletion requests/Various PD-Australia after 1945. The Commons discussion is about around 50 Australian photos, but the same rule applies here too. Stefan2 (talk) 13:59, 23 May 2012 (UTC)
 * That doesn't help: it's still unfree. --Stefan2 (talk) 14:45, 23 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Actually, that tag is incorrect, and the image is free. It was released in 1987, before the URAA date. Nikkimaria (talk) 15:16, 23 May 2012 (UTC)
 * The negative to the photograph was donated to the Public Archives of Nova Scotia in 1987. However, no evidence has been presented that the copyright also was transferred to the archive or that the photo has been released to the public domain. It is not clear who was the negative donor and it is not clear if that person was allowed to release anything to the public domain either. --Stefan2 (talk) 20:51, 23 May 2012 (UTC)
 * The donor was the copyright holder and no rights were reserved. Nikkimaria (talk) 02:06, 24 May 2012 (UTC)
 * What is your source for that claim? This page tells that the photo was moved from place to place several times, sometimes without transferring copyright (see e.g. the statement about an agreement expiring in 1986). From that page, it is not clear if the copyright holder had access to the negative when the negative was donated to the archive, or if the owner of the physical negative was the same as the copyright holder. Furthermore, nothing is told about what happened with the copyright after the transfer of the negative. The United States copyright holder could be the archive or anyone else. --Stefan2 (talk) 15:25, 26 May 2012 (UTC)

 * According to City of Tampa Ordinance 2000-227, Sec. 4-6, the city has title and ownership of all public art commissioned by the city or any of its agencies, such as this statue. Florida's public records law "overrides a governmental agency's ability to claim a copyright in its work unless the legislature has expressly authorized a public records exemption." This image is in the public domain.


 * See Template:PD-FLGov and for more details and Category:Florida government images and Category:PD Florida for several hundred more examples. Zeng8r (talk) 12:35, 26 May 2012 (UTC)


 * User:Magog_the_Ogre put a "possibly unfree file" tag back on this image's page w/o justification, as there has been no further discussion from him or anyone else after the clear explanation above. As the dispute appears to be over, the tag should be gone. Zeng8r (talk) 02:12, 27 May 2012 (UTC)
 * We don't take the deletion notices of ongoing discussions off of a page: period. Cf. Uw-afd1. Only the user who closes the discussion (usually a qualified admin) does that. And I notice you haven't responded to Stefan's query on Commons about the authorship, which is not a small issue at all, as there is a big difference between works for hire (i.e., produced by someone working directly for the state) and works by a contractor. Magog the Ogre (talk) 02:54, 27 May 2012 (UTC)


 * Your argument in invalid. If you read the more verbose Commons version of the PD-FLGov template, you'll see that the relevant court decision clearly states that the work of "any public body, officer, or employee of the state, or persons acting on their behalf" is in the public domain. The court went on to explain that this applies to "the legislative, executive, and judicial branches of government and each agency or department created thereunder; counties, municipalities, and districts." There is nothing more to argue; time for a proverbial "qualified admin" to close this up. Zeng8r (talk) 16:47, 28 May 2012 (UTC)


 * Can we avoid having this discussion at two places and just refer to the discussion at Commons instead? It quickly becomes messy if comments are posted at two places. --Stefan2 (talk) 10:12, 29 May 2012 (UTC)
