• The first revision is from Google Maps which I suppose is unfree. The second revision has no source but the web resolution and lack of EXIF suggest that it could be unfree. Stefan2 (talk) 11:22, 19 January 2012 (UTC)

See this from google code project http://code.google.com/apis/maps/faq.html Can I put Google Maps on my site without using the Google Maps APIs? Yes. Google Maps now offers the ability to embed the map that you're viewing into your website or blog, without any programming or use of the Google Maps APIs — Preceding unsigned comment added by Riztech (talk • contribs) 03:38, 20 January 2012 (UTC)

• This was listed as a copyvio, but I'm not sure that I agree, so I'm changing it to PUF. The thing is that it is an Iraqi web site, and Iraq doesn't have copyright relations with the United States, so it is in the public domain in the United States. This special situation is currently being discussed at Wikipedia talk:Copyrights#RfC: What to do with respect to the copyright of countries with which the US does not have copyright relations? so it might be better to wait with a decision until the discussion has finished. Stefan2 (talk) 22:36, 19 January 2012 (UTC)
• I concur that there are unresolved issues with images such as these; request that we hold off on this for now. I also concur that this image is PD in the US. Buffs (talk) 05:45, 27 January 2012 (UTC)

  Per the aforementioned discussion, I've labeled the image as PD (there doesn't seem to be any objection on that line of reasoning). However, we are waiting for consensus on how to use such images. Since it's been declared as a PD image, I think it's pretty clear that this can be closed as PD image. Should the status change or we get clearer guidance, I'll happily place them en masse into WP:FFD. Buffs (talk) 20:05, 1 February 2012 (UTC)

• The subject of the photo died in 1935. When was the photo taken? Was it published somewhere and if so during which year? When did the photographer die? It says that he was in office between July and December 1916 (as written on the photo) and that is probably when the photo was taken but the information isn't enough for determining the UK and US copyright status. Stefan2 (talk) 23:51, 19 January 2012 (UTC)
• The image was created by me in 2006. The copyright notice associated with this image refers to that creation. As can be seen, it is a photo of a mounted photo, part of a series of images of Secretaries for Scotland which would have been created during or shortly after their period of office. In any event, as I understand it, the image I have uploaded is sufficiently distinct from the original that it has separate copyright.--George Burgess (talk) 19:54, 21 January 2012 (UTC)
• Your photo likely gets a copyright of its own, but the underlying photo might still be covered by copyright, and it is the copyright status of that photo which we need to find out. --Stefan2 (talk) 09:06, 22 January 2012 (UTC)
