 * This is derivative work of the game cartridge art. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 09:53, 15 May 2014 (UTC)
 * It's a photograph taken of the two cartridges connected, which is the primary usage of the photograph. The artwork on the cartridge is not what is being displayed and is not central to the understanding of what the photo is meant to display. This isn't the Commons where anything vaguely derivative is not allowed.— Ryūlóng ( 琉竜 ) 19:22, 15 May 2014 (UTC)

 * This is a 2D plaque, which are not generally covered by UK FoP. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 11:15, 15 May 2014 (UTC)
 * It would be helpful to be told what a 2D plaque is generally covered by so I can change to the appropriate tag. What about this and this  and many more? Jack1956 (talk) 11:53, 15 May 2014 (UTC)


 * It depends, on a number of things.

In your two examples. -
 * 1) . Plaque is simple text, and looks to be old.
 * 2) . This may need to be the subject of a seperate PUF listing, as it contains graphical elements, it is however not completely 2D.

I'd flagged your image as PUF because, It is a 2D dimensional plaque, which contains graphical elements beyond the threshold of originality (namely the photo) and those elements are not raised or sculpted as part of the artistic design of the overall plaque. Thus it is not obviously different from a 2D artwork such as poster or mural, for which the UK does not have a generalised FoP.

The image may be suitable under the provisions of fair-use, ( see WP:NFCC) Sfan00 IMG (talk) 14:31, 15 May 2014 (UTC)


 * Tag and rationale duly changed. Jack1956 (talk) 15:26, 15 May 2014 (UTC)


 * Note: This image is currently tagged as non-free. If there is a dispute with the rationale, please tag the image with dfu or list it at WP:Non-free content review. AnomieBOT ⚡ 16:10, 15 May 2014 (UTC)

 * This is a photo of work by a French Architect/Designer, still alive in 1965, France has no FoP, and the 'work' in this instance is the main focus of the image. Image is seemingly unused meaning it can't be converted to fair-use. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 14:14, 15 May 2014 (UTC)
 * There seems to be dozens of Creative Commons pictures in Flickr that could be used for the Villa Savoye. Perhaps someone can upload to Commons.--Doug Coldwell (talk) 19:13, 15 May 2014 (UTC)


 * The FoP image still arises, and Commons is very strict on that as far as I can tell. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 21:18, 15 May 2014 (UTC)

 * It's a screencap of a website; uploader could not have possibly made it himself. — Ryūlóng ( 琉竜 ) 15:19, 15 May 2014 (UTC)
 * This is a screenshot. Anyone who can press ALT and Print Screen keys together can take a screenshot. BDBJack (talk) 16:26, 15 May 2014 (UTC)
 * While taking a screenshot does not invalidate the original copyright of the website (and while in general, publishing a screenshot of a website would be a copyright violation), this particular image comes with an OTRS ticket that confirms the given licenses - Banc de Binary seems to have released an image of their homepage.

Actually, there's plenty of evidence, and it's all in the law cited below. This document is classified by law as a public record in the state of North Carolina -- "property of the people," to use the law's exact wording. Does that or does that not mean it is not subject to copyright? Regardless of what "Commons" says, North Carolina state law says very specifically that a map produced by a local government agency is a public record. The document itself states at the bottom of the map that it was created by the Planning Department of the City of Greensboro: Prepared by: Greensboro Department of Planning & Community Development Cartographer: Sovich, J. Draft: October 17, 2013 \\Market\pcd\HCD\NEIGHBORHOOD_PLANNING\College Hill\GIS\College Hill Base Map 10_17_13.mxd Under North Carolina law, all documents, specifically including maps, produced by local and state agencies are public records. North Carolina General Statutes Chapter 132-1: § 132-1. "Public records" defined. (a) "Public record" or "public records" shall mean all documents, papers, letters, maps, books, photographs, films, sound recordings, magnetic or other tapes, electronic data-processing records, artifacts, or other documentary material, regardless of physical form or characteristics, made or received pursuant to law or ordinance in connection with the transaction of public business by any agency of North Carolina government or its subdivisions. Agency of North Carolina government or its subdivisions shall mean and include every public office, public officer or official (State or local, elected or appointed), institution, board, commission, bureau, council, department, authority or other unit of government of the State or of any county, unit, special district or other political subdivision of government. (b) The public records and public information compiled by the agencies of North Carolina government or its subdivisions are the property of the people. Therefore, it is the policy of this State that the people may obtain copies of their public records and public information free or at minimal cost unless otherwise specifically provided by law. As used herein, "minimal cost" shall mean the actual cost of reproducing the public record or public information.
