Talk:Public domain

Semi-protected edit request on 21 November 2023

Hi! Very small issue, but the second reference to Leonardo Da Vinci on the page for public domain, re-directs to the page to the airport, not the guy. See the example of the current page below:

Marcel Duchamp's L.H.O.O.Q. is a derivative of Leonardo da Vinci's Mona Lisa

The link should be changed to reflect the one below

Marcel Duchamp's L.H.O.O.Q. is a derivative of Leonardo da Vinci's Mona Lisa

or, as Leonardo da Vinci's link is already present on the page, simply removing the link altogether would accomplish the same.

Marcel Duchamp's L.H.O.O.Q. is a derivative of Leonardo da Vinci's Mona Lisa

Thank you for your time!

 Done I've just removed it per WP:DUPLINK. Thanks. Liu1126 (talk) 09:50, 21 November 2023 (UTC)

"no exclusive intellectual property rights apply"

If that is not true, then we consistently use this term incorrectly in the Wikimedia world. At least in a Wikimedia context, public domain normally refers only to copyright protection. There can still be trademark protection (and also personality rights, etc., though those are not intellectual property rights). A good example of this is that the Lloyd's of London logo is far too simple to copyright, but is trademarked. Obviously you couldn't use it in any way that connected to the insurance or shipping industry, but I believe it would be correct to say that in terms of (for example) its incorporation into a work of art it is "in the public domain." I'd be interested in others' take on this. - Jmabel | Talk 16:23, 18 December 2023 (UTC)

Unprotect this page please

This page deserves to be unprotected as it was in the past 78.17.249.14 (talk) 11:14, 31 December 2023 (UTC)

Requests to unprotect a page can be made at Wikipedia:Requests for page protection. Having said that, this page should not be unprotected, as a huge portion of the edits made before protection were destructive or vandalistic, and used up effort undoing them. If you have an edit you wish seen made to this page, recommend it here on the talk page. You also have the option of getting an account, which would lead to you being able to edit this page. -- Nat Gertler (talk) 15:36, 31 December 2023 (UTC)

For the embedded video of Steamboat Willie, I feel like it should be replaced with the clearer version currently embedded in Steamboat Willie article (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Steamboat_Willie_(1928)_by_Walt_Disney.webm). DarkMetal485 (talk) 20:31, 1 January 2024 (UTC)

 Not done as the video has been removed by another user. If you would like to re-insert the video, please reactivate this edit request. Thanks! TGHL ↗ 🍁 23:03, 1 January 2024 (UTC)

List of public domain works?

Does there exist a list of PD works? I, of course, don't mean of ALL works in the public domain, but of those important enough to have their own Wikipedia article? --91.64.59.91 (talk) 08:44, 25 January 2024 (UTC)

We do on Wikipedia have Category:Public domain. However, I would caution that not only are not all PD works going to have that category flagged, but that people sometimes misjudge works as being PD and thus some items may be falsely flagged. Additionally, public domain status is not global but national; a work may be PD in one country but not another. -- Nat Gertler (talk) 15:02, 25 January 2024 (UTC)
