Image talk:ThomasMüller.jpg

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

You cannot use {{copyvio}} leaving the url blank, how can you claim that using the image is hurting the financial interests of the copyholder, without knowing who it is? There is reasonable grounds to assume for all intents and purposes that the image was published by the Third Reich as Müller is both posed and in uniform. The {{GermanGov}} cites the sourceholder as being the German Government right on the template (This copyrighted image was published by an official agency of the Federal Republic of Germany...), so by using the template you are automatically fulfilling the German copyright clause.

If you are not acutely aware that the use of this image is somehow hurting the Third Reich photographer who snapped the image more than fifty years ago, I would ask that you please refrain from listing it as a Copyright violation. Sherurcij 19:21, 21 September 2005

"An official agency" - which agency - "of the Federal Republic of Germany or of its predecessor states" - which state? And the template doesn't specify who the current rightsholder is. --Carnildo 20:30, 21 September 2005 (UTC)

There is reasonable grounds to assume for all intents and purposes that the image was published by the Third Reich as Müller is both posed and in uniform. I would have to say "NSDAP" Sherurcij 22:14, 23 September 2005 (UTC)
