Love (Alexander Milov sculpture)

Created by Bruxton (talk). Self-nominated at 22:31, 19 April 2022 (UTC).

  • Comment, not intending to review. I am no expert in copyrights, but my broad understanding is that sculptures are independently copyrighted, and photographs cannot have a more permissive license than the underlying art. Some relevant exceptions are listed here, but I can't make sense of whether they apply. Urve (talk) 05:11, 21 April 2022 (UTC)
@Bookku and Urve: Thanks for the advice. Can someone help me with how to get an image reviewed? I am not the uploader of the photo. Also, I think a reviewer can review the article and choose to run it without a photo. Bruxton (talk) 19:08, 22 April 2022 (UTC)
  • Unfortunately, the image does not appear to be free. There's more information about this at Commons:COM:FOP US, but the short version is that while images of buildings can generally be freely licensed, images of sculptures generally can't. It really is a shame – that's a gorgeous picture! I've nominated it for deletion on Commons, so we'll find out soon enough if I'm right or wrong. Also, I've italicized Love in the hooks. ezlev (user/tlk/ctrbs) 03:26, 28 April 2022 (UTC)

@Bookku, Ezlev, and Urve: Hi all. I did not upload the photo to commons, but found it there - and it has been there 5 years now. It could have been an artist upload as it is crystal clear and there are no festival goers near. But I am going to remove it from this nomination so that a review may proceed. A photo deletion process will likely take a while. I will also delete it from the article. Bruxton (talk) 03:31, 30 April 2022 (UTC)

IMHO the image is sort of central to this DYK and I hope we will afford to wait for couple of days for it's availability if possible. Meanwhile I will do some legwork for reviewing some rest of aspects as you suggested. Bookku, 'Encyclopedias = expanding information & knowledge' (talk) 13:31, 1 May 2022 (UTC)


General: Article is new enough and long enough
Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems

Hook eligibility:

QPQ: Unknown

Overall: IMHO Actually this is a must have DYK, but the image is sort of central to this DYK and if we afford to wait for couple of days for it's availability if possible. User seems active in review but I need help of some one else in count and confirming qpq requirements. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bookku (talkcontribs) 13:51, May 1, 2022 (UTC)
