Image problem

File:John Green portrait.png is tagged with a PD-US-No Notice license on Commons. However, the masthead on page 1 of the newspaper that this was taken from in the same issue contains a copyright notice that was compliant with the copyright rules in place at the time, so that image needs to be re-tagged.

@RecycledPixels: Thanks for catching that. I've updated instead that the license was not renewed.—Bagumba (talk) 13:28, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Bagumba: Do you have evidence of that? this entry at The University of Pennsylvania list casts doubt that it wasn't renewed. RecycledPixels (talk) 15:23, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@RecycledPixels: I didnt see it under the renewals on pp. 199–211 here, but maybe I'm overlooking something. —Bagumba (talk) 15:33, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Bagumba: Yes, that's the list of copyright renewals that took place in 1962. All those renewals are for 1934-1935 copyrights on publications that were approaching expiration. Searching for the renewal of the copyright on the 1962 publications will probably require going through the Copyright Office site because it probably happened after 1978. It looks like a complete mess to search. RecycledPixels (talk) 15:55, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@RecycledPixels: Ack. Looks renewed.[1] I'll request deletion. —Bagumba (talk) 15:59, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

For reference, that LA Times' version was deleted,[2] but I uploaded a different one with the same file name. —Bagumba (talk) 13:25, 3 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
