Support Korean war is one of the most impactful events in 1950-1960 but there has been no FP still. This picture shows refugees evacuating from Pyeongyang to South. The resolution is somewhat low but it seems due to restriction of contemporary photography technique (other contemporary FPs are similar).-- — Sadopaul 💬 📁 04:26, 7 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment The notice on the file says "This work is in the public domain because it was published in the United States between 1926 and 1963, and although there may or may not have been a copyright notice, the copyright was not renewed." The notice on the linked AP page says: "This content is intended for editorial use only. For other uses, additional clearances may be required." Which one is it? -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 08:20, 7 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Ikan Kekek: I followed a copyright notice in Category:Photographs distributed by Associated Press and then, as I know, they can be used as PD even though AP says that.— Sadopaul 💬 📁 09:53, 7 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

These press agencies are notorious for copyfraud. COM:ALAMY is the worst, claiming images they don't even own, but it is normal for other agencies to continue to sell their own works even after they have entered the public domain. That said, @Sadopaul: have you actually performed a search of copyright renewals to ensure that the copyright has not been renewed? -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 18:00, 7 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@King of Hearts: Actually I have pursued for a half-hour but I could not find sufficient information or reliable source standing for or against. In this case, this web linked in the category page above might be the most plausible answer.— Sadopaul 💬 📁 11:15, 8 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Support Famous, dramatic photograph, but maybe enlarged too much for its level of sharpness? -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 21:59, 10 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
