A photo taken in 1927 would have come out of copyright by 1st January 1978. In 1995, copyright was revived for many earlier photos, but allowing free use and no charge if reasonable efforts could not locate the copyright owner.Rjm at sleepers (talk) 10:12, 27 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
The UK copyright having being revived in 1995 makes it copyrighted on the URAA date (1 January 1996 for the UK), so it has a restored copyright in the US making it copyrighted for 95 years after first publication. January (talk) 13:26, 27 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
As it seems that this copyrighted image can only be used with a FUR, and that the uploader does not seem to want to involve themselves in this matter, I have provided this myself. Graemp (talk) 13:51, 10 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
The FUR will need an WP:NFCC#1 justification, if you've already searched for a free image I would suggest making a note of this under "Replaceability". January (talk) 14:16, 10 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • There is no evidence that this was first published in Australia. If it was first published in Australia, then it is unfree in the United States as it wasn't taken before 1946. Stefan2 (talk) 17:01, 26 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • It says that this was in the public domain in the United Kingdom in 1996, which requires that 1952 (photographer's year of death) was more than 70 years before 1996, which is clearly not the case. Invalid copyright template.

There is no evidence of publication, and the text on the file information page suggests that this was a personal photograph. Unless the photograph was published before 1923, it is protected by copyright in the United States. Stefan2 (talk) 17:07, 26 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

This is one of many UK photos that came out of copyright after 50 years, but which returned to copyright in 1995 with relatively free use.
Whether it was in the public domain in the United Kingdom in 1994 or not is irrelevant. The problem is that it was copyrighted in the United Kingdom in 1996, which makes it copyrighted in the United States for 95 years from publication. --Stefan2 (talk) 16:04, 27 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for noting this incorrectly uploaded photo. I did not fill in the copyright details correctly, mostly because I struggled with working out which template to use. I'm first to admit I am no copyright expert and am new to Wikipedia. The photographer was a New Zealander, Herman Schmidt who died in 1959. The photo was possibly taken in Auckland in 1919, not London in 1918 as I first thought. Hence by NZ Copyright Law, as of 1 Jan 2014, this photograph is automatically in the public domain. The photograph was in the possession of the subject's mother and is now owned by the subject's (son) next of kin. It was with his permission that I scanned the photo and it is with his blessing that the photo becomes part of the public domain. It is not a particularly private photograph and is typical of WW1 NZ soldiers to be formally photographed as such. It is already published by the Auckland Libraries Heritage Centre and DigitalNZ who seemed to have obtained the glass plate negative from the photographer's studio in 1970 after he died. I do not know where the date 1996 came from - did I say that? I had planned to use it on a page which is still in draft form, mostly because i am struggling with uploading images. Stefan2 can you advise how/if I can proceed, which template to use and evidence I need to collect? I also have two other photos I want to use which were published in newspapers in 1916 and 1926 approx.Pn4Ls (talk) 23:34, 1 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
The 1996 year comes from the copyright law of the United States. Unless the photograph was published before 1923, the photograph is copyrighted in the United States (expiration 95 years after publication if first published 1923-77, in 2048 if first published 1978-2002 and in 2023 if first published after 2002). There is currently no indication of when the photograph was first published. --Stefan2 (talk) 17:13, 8 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • It says that this was scanned from a family album, so there is a high possibility that this is unpublished. {{PD-URAA}} can only be used for images published before 1 March 1989, so unless the uploader can demonstrate that the photograph was published before that date, the copyright tag is invalid.

If it was first published when it was uploaded, then the uploader has to provide evidence that {{PD-US-unpublished}} is satisfied. The man died in 1939 and he looks old, so the terms in that template might not be satisfied for this photograph. Stefan2 (talk) 17:13, 26 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • There is no evidence that this was first published in Australia. {{PD-Australia}} should only be used for photographs which were first published in Australia.

If it was first published in France, Australia or New Zealand (which seem to be the countries involved in the match), then the photograph is unfree in the United States; see {{Not-PD-US-URAA}}. Stefan2 (talk) 17:16, 26 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • If you wish to use {{PD-URAA}} for a German photograph, then you need to show that the photograph was created before 1926, and additionally several other things. Considering that the photograph shows high-ranking Nazis, it is unlikely that the photograph was created before 1926. Stefan2 (talk) 17:21, 26 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

File:Sir w herringham.jpg (delete | talk | history | logs).
Under UK law as it was at the time, the photo went out of copyright on or before 1st January 1987. I believe this made it public domain in the US at that date and it was not copyright in either the UK or US on the 1st March 1989 (the operative date for the Berne Convention). Since the work was not copyright on 1st March 1989, I believe it is not covered by the Berne Convention or by 17 USC 104A which implimented the convention in the US. UK copyright for this photo and many others was revived in 1995 by a change in UK law. However the copyright owner is unknown and their name and address “cannot by reasonable inquiry be ascertained.” As a result, under UK law, "anyone can use the revived copyright photograph, without permission, and without any obligation to pay money."

  • It says that the photograph was taken by Joseph Zachariah, possibly this guy who seems to have died in 1965. As he had not yet been dead for at least 50 years in 1996, the copyright tag is invalid. Unfree in the United States until 95 years after the photograph was first published.

The original photograph is found at both at the Library of Congress and Minneapolis Institute of the Arts as part of a bequest from photographer Edward Streichan by direction of Joanna T.

Only thing I can say is that the original sites must have changed; there is a similar image at <https://sites.google.com/site/richardarthurnorton/frankhawksbibliography> and <http://www.thisdayinaviation.com/12-august-1930/>.
