Unless it is something about French copyright law, or something else, Image:D'Herelle,_Eliava,_Makashvili.JPG and Image:Older_d'Herelle.jpg would not seem to qualify as {{PD}} (Public Domain) images. Help me out here, someone please. ---Stephen Ewen 14:26, 17 June 2007 (CDT)

These photos are old and the provenance is murky. The former was taken at the Eliava Institute in the Soviet Union, which I am pretty sure did not even HAVE copyright law at the time. It was published in Science 25 October 2002:Vol. 298. no. 5594, pp. 728 - 731 DOI: 10.1126/science.298.5594.728 and credited COURTESY OF A. SULAKVELIDZE who is Alexander Sulakvelidze, a founder of Intralytix Inc. The latter is reproduced in many places without any indication given for its source. ...said David Tribe (talk) (Please sign your talk page posts by simply adding four tildes, ~~~~.)

Okay, but don't you think we should avoid outrightly calling photos "Public Domain" when we lack the authority to do so? Probably public domain does not equal public domain.

• Image:D'Herelle,_Eliava,_Makashvili.JPG - I will email Intralytix about the image. David, do you know whether Alexander Sulakvelidze is still alive?

• Image:Older_d'Herelle.jpg - this should be tagged by an editor with

{{Provenanceunknown-fairuse-editor
|editor name=
|workgroup name=
|article name=
}}

See {{Provenanceunknown-fairuse-editor}} for what the template says.

Ideally, File:Older d'Herelle.jpg/Permission should contain documented attempts to locate the copyright holder; David, perhaps you can make a statement there saying simply that the image is reproduced in many places without any indication given for its source, so there is no lead to even try to follow.

Correction (and apologies for any of my own unsigned comments), but it is likely the "unsigned" comment was not mine but John 's, the main author. Not a major issue anyway, but trying to keep the record straight. Thanks for welcome advice on copyright too David Tribe 01:19, 22 June 2007 (CDT)
