More  Keep as it was made by the Artist Benny Wilding during the Festival Mural 2015! Sargoth (talk) 08:21, 20 August 2018 (UTC)Reply[reply]
@Sargoth: and did Artist Benny Wilding release his work with a free license? You've just provided another reason for deletion. And COM:FoP#Canada doesn't cover murals. - Alexis Jazz ping plz 06:31, 21 August 2018 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Panoramafreiheit. Die folgende Graffiti ist lediglich eine abgeleitete Zeichnung der Comicfigur durch den Künstler Patrik Wolters alias BeneR1 (siehe die Künstlersignatur). Die Graffiti im öffentlichen Raum installiert und unterliegen damit der Panoramafreiheit:

@Bernd Schwabe in Hannover:
  1. Go to Germany.
  2. Spray paint Donald Duck on the wall of a police station. (why a police station? German jails are fun I hear)
  3. Take photo.
  4. Upload photo to Commons.
OMG I can't believe we never thought of this before! We'll never need fair use rationales on English Wikipedia again as long as we have Wikipedians with spray paint in Germany! (sorry for the sarcasm, but Panoramafreiheit really doesn't cover works that were never licensed in the first place) - Alexis Jazz ping plz 06:47, 21 August 2018 (UTC)Reply[reply]
File:Cartoon murial Montrèal 2017 small without Mr D.jpg
Mural in Montréal without Mr. D.
I uploaded a new file if you think it's better,  Keep it. The filename says Mr. D, because i'm unsure if it is lawful to name the character.--Sargoth (talk) 10:23, 20 August 2018 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Files in Category:Donald Duck 3[edit]

From the description:

"The Public Domain film The Spirit of '43, which is in public domain due the fact that was created for the US Government."

But Donald Duck and probably even this exact screen were created before '43. It is dubious anyway. Sesame Street isn't public domain either as far as I know.

 Keep Files of The Spirit of '43 has been nominated more than once for deletion, but requests had been declined, because there is no evidence of copyright renewal. See former discussions at:
  1. Commons:Deletion requests/File:Spirit 43 - Scrooge - Oncle Picsou - Garrepa.JPG.
  2. Commons:Deletion requests/File:The Spirit of 43-Donald Duck, cropped version.jpg.

@Maher27777: this isn't entirely how it works.
User:Trycatch nailed it on Commons:Deletion requests/File:Donald Duck - The Spirit of '43 (cropped version).jpg:
"Donald Duck is still copyrighted -- he first appeared in The Wise Little Hen (1934), which was successfully renewed in 1961. Every single appearance of Donald Duck after The Wise Little Hen would be considered a derivative work from the first cartoon, hence copyrighted. Yes, the copyright on The Spirit of '43 wasn't renewed, and a part of the cartoon fall in the public domain, but parts of it with Donald Duck are still copyrighted as a DW from the previous works. See the long discussion cited by the nominator for details."
I can't explain it any better, so I won't. I will add this: can you prove The Spirit of '43 was the first cartoon to feature this title card? I can't say for sure because title cards may have been swapped, but Donald's Nephews from 1938 seems to have the same title card. At the same time, if title cards were swapped (like they appear to have been for Don Donald), that would also put the title card of The Spirit of '43 into question. - Alexis Jazz ping plz 11:32, 19 August 2018 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Discussion about the The Spirit of '43 is feared to be unfairly lost in this sea of requests. First it was made for the US Government, including its first scene. Second, there is no evidence of copyright renewal.--Maher27777 (talk) 18:46, 19 August 2018 (UTC)Reply[reply]
I was talking about the title card. Was The Spirit of '43 really the first Donald Duck cartoon to feature that title card? And even if it was (it doesn't look like it), Donald Duck wasn't created for The Spirit of '43. If I draw Donald Duck, all by myself, I still wouldn't be allowed to upload it here. - Alexis Jazz ping plz 06:31, 21 August 2018 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Whether the title card was used before, with, of after The Spirit of '43, the cartoon as a whole is in public domain, including its title card, and it's easy to prove it is a part of The Spirit of '43. Why should we have to wait unnecessarily to 2039?--Maher27777 (talk) 15:39, 22 August 2018 (UTC)Reply[reply]
