•  Description :  Steamboat Willie, the first animated movie featuring the character "Mickey Mouse", enters the public domain under U.S. copyright law on 1 January 2024, 95 years after its release in 1928.
• Gallery: Commons:Featured media/Animated
•  Info created by Walt Disney Studios – to be uploaded to Commons and nominated by Gnom
• Hello, I would like to nominate Disney's animated short film Steamboat Willie which has not been uploaded yet. The reason is that the film will famously enter the Public Domain on 1 January 2024 and I would like to showcase it on the Commons Main Page on that exact day (I would upload it on Commons on the evening of 31 December 2023). I know that this is unorthodox, but it would be a really cool way to celebrate Public Domain Day next year. What do you think? -- Gnom (talk) 17:56, 19 October 2023 (UTC)

•  Question is Featured Media status required for MotD? I don't think you would meet much resistance there with this proposal ... -- El Grafo (talk) 09:28, 20 October 2023 (UTC)

  @El Grafo: Maybe you are right and no such status is required for media of the day – I would say that we should make it a featured medium in time for the new year anyway. Gnom (talk) 17:18, 21 October 2023 (UTC)

  You know what, let's go for it. It's a wiki, let's Be flexible:  Support El Grafo (talk) 08:39, 23 October 2023 (UTC)
