Westside

Hi Gab01,
thanks for uploading. But you should check whether Image:Westside 4.JPG and Image:Westside 3.JPG are really covered by the Freedom-of-panorama law of Switzerland. As modern architecture is considered work of art and as the architect of this building hasn't died >70 years ago, he still has copyright over the building. FOP usually covers only images from outside. --Túrelio (talk) 15:07, 8 October 2008 (UTC)

Hello Túrelio,
thanks for warning me. Do I have some time for checking it? If I had about one month, I could ask a lawyer who would tell my if those pictures are covered by the Freedom-of-panorama law. If not, the best thing to do would be to delete the pictures and maybe re-upload them later. I also contact user:Ikiwaner, maybe he knows that law better than me.--Gab01 (talk) 18:07, 8 October 2008 (UTC)

Do I have some time for checking it? - I will not tag them as derivative, but it is possible that someoe else does. But even if they are deleted, that wouldn't be really a problem as nothing is final here. Any deleted file can (and will) be un-deleted if new evidence is provided. And you really don't need to invest any money for consulting a lawyer. There are plenty of people here, who know a lot about copyright, only in this case it has to be Swiss copyright. --Túrelio (talk) 18:15, 8 October 2008 (UTC)

And you really don't need to invest any money for consulting a lawyer. No, I know him: I am going to meet him in a month (that's the reason why I asked for the delay). I will just keep an eye on those files and If they are deleted, it isn't a drama. I'll contact you again if I get some news. --Gab01 (talk) 18:47, 8 October 2008 (UTC)

Look at that link: Admin.ch. It seems that two-dimensional reproduction of a work of art visible in a public place is allowed. Could you please confirm if I am right? Thanks! --Gab01 (talk) 09:28, 9 October 2008 (UTC)

You are right - and it doesn't help ;-). The link shows the usual description of Freedom of panorama. The problem is oder auf allgemein zugänglichem Grund befindet as this may not be valid for inside buildings. (By the way, we can communicate in German, if you too are a german language-speaker.) --Túrelio (talk) 09:33, 9 October 2008 (UTC)

I prefer talking in English because I am from Suisse Romande, but I understand German. This document, see page 5 suggests that this kind of pictures may not be allowed, but there is a debate ("Ob auch frei zugängliche Innenräume unter die Bestimmung fallen ist umstritten"). Another point is that Daniel Liebeskind wants its building to become kind of a forum (E.g. this interview, but it is not very explicit in this one, others are better), a real public place — I know, thats worth nothing neither — but I think Libeskind himself wouldn't be angry to see those pictures. I'll add the FOP-model to my pictures. --Gab01 (talk) 18:23, 9 October 2008 (UTC)

Forgot something important. Even if both are not covered by Swiss FOP, you simply may contact the Libeskind office and ask politely if they could grant you permission to publish your two images under a free license on Commons (don't say "for Wikipedia", because that is not enough for Commons). For the correct wording of the required permission, use the email template on Commons:Email templates. --Túrelio (talk) 06:40, 9 October 2008 (UTC)
