File:USS Gettysburg 1.jpg

Possibly public domain image because it was created and publish in the United States before 1927. This historic newspapaper right here, has the same picture of the ship and it was published in 1879. Vitaium (talk) 08:07, 20 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Transfer to Commons the author died over 90 years ago and it was published in the 19th century. Highly unlikely to have been renewed (if that’s even possible??) Dronebogus (talk) 11:52, 20 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

File:KPL 2019 logo.png

Logo for a specific season of the tournament (2019 season) being used on a general article, which is not acceptable. The tournament has also renamed since then, and so the only logo that should be considered for using would be the one at the top of here. Nevertheless, the use of this logo is unacceptable Joseph2302 (talk) 09:33, 20 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

File:Contemporary photograph after George Spencer Watson of Edith Dorothea Morgan (1871 - 1931), aka Mrs Rodolph Fane de Salis.jpg

Since British copyright on the underlying painting expired after 1996, the URAA restored US copyright in this image. Since the sitter died in 1931, it would be safe to undelete in 2027. Its current use is in her husband's Wikipedia article, so I am unsure whether it would qualify for non-free use. Felix QW (talk) 15:53, 20 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Aren't they all now out of copyright? The sitter died in 1931 and the artist in 1934.Rodolph (talk) 13:24, 22 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

As explained above, it is out of copyright in the UK but not the US. This became public domain in the UK in 1985, had its copyright retroactively restored in 1995, and fell again out of copyright in 2005. 2005 is after 1996 so it's still under US copyright because of URAA Abzeronow (talk) 18:45, 22 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

File:Dr. O'Dowd.jpg

There are a couple of issues here. Firstly, it doesn't seem to be a film poster, as the FUR states, but rather a voucher/coupon or invitation card to a specific promotional showing of the film at a trade show.

Secondly though, since UK copyright will have expired in 2011 for an anonymous 1940 work, if the overall document is below the US threshold of originality, it could be moved to Commons. Commons generally seems to see the WB logo as below the threshold, so it will likely depend on whether the formulaic invitation text is sufficient to be copyrighted as a textual work.

File:Yorkshire 1937.jpg

While this image may arguably be PD in the UK due to unknown authorship and 70 years having lapsed since publication, its American copyright would certainly have been restored in 1996. Thus, it will not be PD in the US until 2033. One current use of this image is at Herbert Sutcliffe, which already has a free image in the infobox, and the other use is for illustrating the 1937 season at Herbert Sutcliffe's cricket career (1933–1939).

Delete as we have non-free images of Herbert Sutcliffe, it fails WP:NFCC#1. Also, the image doesn't significantly enhance reader's understanding of the topic, so it fails WP:NFCC#8 too. Joseph2302 (talk) 08:34, 21 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

File:Fred Noonan.jpg

Some freely licensed alternatives have since been made available at c:Category:Fred Noonan. Ixfd64 (talk) 22:12, 20 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: Had this photo indeed been first published in what is now Indonesia in 1937, its local copyright would have expired in 1987, making it ineligible for URAA restoration and thus also PD in the US. Felix QW (talk) 20:39, 21 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
