Files in Category:Mustafa Kemal Atatürk in 1938[edit]

While all these files may be PD in Turkey as anonymous works, they are certainly still copyrighted in the US until 2033 due to URAA copyright restoration in 1996. If consensus is found to delete, I would nominate earlier years too, up to and including 1929.

Just a note that I did not pick out this subject randomly, but that I am currently working on URAA-restored enwiki files that happen to feature Ataturk, and there is no point in deleting images from enwiki as URAA-restored when there are equivalent images at Commons.

I'm against the deletion. The files have the PD licence of Turkey, except it. These files originate from Turkey and are files on the president of Turkey. When they are uploaded to Commons, it is seen that they are licensed with Turkey's PD policy, and these files do not contradict any information in the licence. This one does not seem to contradict the information available in the licence. "This work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 70 years or fewer." (So the year of 2008.)

The issue is that the files need to be in the public domain both in Turkey and in the US to be hosted on Commons, since the Wikimedia servers hosting the images are located in the US.
In this case, the images are not in the public domain in the US, which is the problem. Felix QW (talk) 13:57, 12 October 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Deleted: per nomination, URAA applies per en:Wikipedia:Non-US copyrights which shows Turkey was 70 pma in 1996. Kept two pre-2012 uploads as grandfathered. --Abzeronow (talk) 21:35, 19 January 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]
