[edit] Copyright status

(moved from User talk:ChrisRuvolo)

Hello, the image:IsadoraDuncan.JPG should be in PD now, as its author has died more than 50 years ago. Or did I miss something? Srtxg 23:47, 26 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Hi. I'm not certain that the image is either in the public domain or retains copyright. It depends on whether the copyright was retained by Arnold Genthe or assigned to a corporation as part of publication, and whether copyright renewals were filed. However, if it is under copyright, I believe that its use in the Duncan article is fair use. BTW, the Sonny Bono act extended the term to life+70 years for works not already in the public domain by 1998 — but this one would have become public domain in 1992 if the copyright was kept by Genthe. --ChrisRuvolo 00:06, 27 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Changed to {{fairold}} to reflect above. --ChrisRuvolo 19:31, 11 Apr 2005 (UTC)
