Post-1923 works by Heinrich Vogeler

edit

Heinrich Vogeler (see Category:Heinrich Vogeler) died in 1942, and so his works published in Germany were in copyright in Germany in 1996 on the URAA date. So their US copyright was restored if they were first published after 1923, like the above works. Per Commons:Licensing, we cannot host works that are not in the public domain in the US. (I did not list his works from 1931-1942 because he lived in Russia and Kazakhstan during that time, and so his works there expired before the URAA date). --Dcoetzee (talk) 07:12, 1 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

We have thousands and thousands of works like that, and should not be paranoid about it, and only delete them as soon as a copyright owner actually demands that. --FA2010 (talk) 09:25, 1 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
PS: I removed two fpr which I could find plausible dates (1895 and 1910 resp.) in Google Books. --FA2010 (talk) 09:28, 1 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for finding dates for those two. For your other comment, see Commons:Precautionary principle. We must delete works that are copyrighted in the United States, regardless of whether the author is likely to complain. Dcoetzee (talk) 21:40, 1 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
This "principle" is utter crap for files like this, as the European community has made clear in many, many instances. --FA2010 (talk) 12:53, 7 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
