Can't determine the date of this artwork so not sure if pd-art or non-free artwork. Currently orphaned but could be used on the Dan Muller article. Leaning towards delete as the artist only died in 1976 so very likely still non-free Salavat (talk) 03:00, 30 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This is an American cartoon published in 1933 with a valid copyright notice. Both the cartoon and the Betty Boop character are still under copyright in the U.S. Unless the copyright was not renewed (which needs to be proven), the cartoon's copyright doesn't expire until 2029.

Originally nominated for speedy deletion by @PlanespotterA320 with the reason "Not PD under Russian law unless pre-1946 publication without attribution is provided (website could not possibly be from early enough). Not eligible for fair-use status unless biography article created. Remember that Soviet public domain statuses have been revoked" FASTILY 08:24, 30 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Uploader has demonstrated a lack of understanding of current copyright law, failing to recognize retroactive extensions of copyright applied to all Soviet works by current successor states. (Uploader wrote out a custom PD-because template citing the 1928 revoked law that was used for the PD-Soviet template, which is no longer legitimate and all files using it must be speedily deleted). There is no evidence that ANY of those photos are public domain under current copyright law of Russia and the United States given the lack of proof they were published early enough to meet the newer, stricter requirements outlined by PD-Russia-1996. I stand by my speedy deletion nomination for these files, since they are not known to be public domain and do not meet requirements for fair-use standards since there are not biographical articles they can be put in.--PlanespotterA320 (talk) 14:11, 30 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This is the third time my use of these images has come up for discussion. In the most recent discussion (2018) I was advised that such use is covered by fair use. If this is not the case I have no major objections to their removal. I have used them primarily for aesthetic reasons and to break up the wall of text.

Originally nominated for speedy deletion by @ PlanespotterA320 with the reason "NOT public domain under current law (PD-Soviet template is revoked), no biography article exists for fair-use, uploaded by prolific copyright violator, no indication of meeting current PD-Russia standards" FASTILY 19:35, 30 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete all of these and above. Can be uploaded individually if needed as fair use only on their specific biographical article where the usual NFCC requirements are met. b uidhe 08:15, 31 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
