This page provides an overview of copyright rules of Algeria relevant to uploading works into Wikimedia Commons. Note that any work originating in Algeria must be in the public domain, or available under a free license, in both Algeria and the United States before it can be uploaded to Wikimedia Commons. If there is any doubt about the copyright status of a work from Algeria, refer to the relevant laws for clarification.

Background

Algeria was a French colony from the mid-19th century until 1962, when it became an independent republic following the March 1962 Evian agreements.

Algeria has been a member of the Berne Convention since 19 April 1998 and the WIPO treaty since 31 January 2014, as well as a signatory to various other international treaties.

As of 2018 the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), an agency of the United Nations, listed Ordinance No. 03-05 of 19 Joumada El Oula 1424 corresponding to July 19, 2003 on Copyright and Related Rights as the main copyright law. WIPO holds the text of this law in their WIPO Lex database. The Wayback Machine holds the French language version.

The 2003 law repealed the Order No. 97-10 dated 27 Shawwal 1417 corresponding to March 6, 1997 related to Copyrights and Neighboring Rights, which in turn repealed the Order No. 73-14 of April 3, 1973 corresponding to copyright. Article 160 of the 1997 law and Article 161 of the 2003 (current) law specify non-retroactivity of the protection terms for works that already fell into public domain.

Durations

Works published in Algeria before 1997 are subject to the 1973 copyright law: Ordonnance n° 73-14 du 3 avril 1973 relative au droit d'auteur (General rule: 25 year protection, see the chapter VII about duration).

Works published between 1997 and 2003 are subject to the 1997 copyright law: Ordonnance n° 10 du 6 mars 1997 relative aux droits d'auteur et aux droits voisins, non retroactive. (General rule: 50 year protection).

Works published from 2003 onwards, as well as those not in the public domain at the time the 2003 copyright law came into effect, are subject to the 2003 copyright law.

According to Ordinance No. 03-05 of 19 Joumada El Oula 1424 corresponding to July 19, 2003,

• Material rights are protected throughout the author's life, and for 50 years from the beginning of the Gregorian year following his death.^{[Law of 2003, Art.54]}
• For a joint work protection is for 50 years from the end of the Gregorian year following the death of the last surviving co-author.^{[Law of 2003, Art.55]}
• The protection period for a collective, pseudonymous, anonymous, posthumous or audiovisual work is 50 years from the end of the Gregorian year during which the work has been legally published for the first time. If the work has not been published within 50 years of its creation, the 50-year protection period is effective from the end of the Gregorian year during which it was publicly circulated. If the work has not been publicly circulated within 50 years from its creation, the 50-year protection period is effective from the end of the Gregorian year during which the work was created.^{[Law of 2003, Art.56–58, 60]}
• Pictorial and applied art works are protected for 50 years from creation.^{[Law of 2003, Art.59]}

However, all photographs which were first published before January 1, 1987 are in the public domain, see {{PD-Algeria-photo-except}}.

Not protected

• Protection shall not include ideas, concepts, principles, approaches, techniques, working procedures and patterns associated with intellectual work creation themselves, except to the extent they are enlisted, structured or arranged in the protected work, and in the format expression independent of their description, interpretation or clarification.^{[Law of 2003, Art.7]}
• State works, legally made available for public use in non-profit generating purposes, may be freely used subject to maintaining the work wellbeing and highlighting its source. State works, within the context of this article, shall mean works produced and published by various state institutions, local groups and public establishments of administrative nature.^{[Law of 2003, Art.9]}
• Approved protection of copyrights provided for herein shall not be granted to administrative laws, regulations, resolutions and administrative contracts issued by the state institutions, local groups, justice rulings and the official translation of these texts.^{[Law of 2003, Art.11]}

Traditional cultural heritage: non-free

The non-commercial restriction that makes both coins or banknotes incompatible with Commons licensing policy. This does not apply to the banknotes and coins issued by the Banque de l'Algérie, the banking authority during French rule (until 1958), because it was not an official body of the current Algerian state. Copyright status of this currency is currently undetermined.

Freedom of panorama

Во ред {{FoP-Algeria}}

According to article 50 of the Algerian copyright law 2003, it shall be lawful to reproduce or to communicate to the public, without authorization of the author and without remuneration, a work of architecture or the fine arts, a work of applied arts or a photographic work that is permanently situated in a public place, with the exception of art galleries, museums and classified cultural or natural sites.^{[Law of 2003, Art.50]}

The freedom of panorama clause was introduced in the 1997 copyright law of Algeria.^{[Law of 1997, Art.51]} Prior that, a limited freedom of panorama right for use by cinematography and TV broadcasts existed in the 1973 copyright law of Algeria.^{[Law of 1973, Art.27]}

Бир Тавил

Друг регион, како на пр. зависна територија, сојуз, поранешна држава

Location of Bir Tawil (white) between Egypt and Sudan

Bir Tawil is an uninhabited area along the border between Egypt and Sudan that is claimed by neither country. It results from a dispute over the boundary between the two countries, where Egypt claims all land north of a straight line defined in 1899 and Sudan claims all land south of an irregular line defined in 1902. Bir Tawil is south of the straight line and north of the irregular line, with the result that each country claims the other owns it.

No works are currently published in Bir Tawil. Thus, if hypothetically someone both published a work in this region and also attempted to assert copyright over it, the copyright status of such a work is unknown, and would be addressed on a case-by-case basis. Unpublished works and works published outside of Bir Tawil will usually be subject to protection in the author's country and the country of publication. Published works that claim to be under the copyright of one of the various en:micronations that have claimed Bir Tawil rather than Egypt, Sudan, or the author's home country would lack copyright protection, as these micronations are not signatory to the relevant international copyright treaties.

If there is any doubt about the copyright status of a work from Egypt, refer to the relevant laws for clarification.

Background

The British took effective control of Egypt in the late 19th century, and on 5 November 1914 it became a British protectorate. Britain unilaterally declared that Egypt was independent on 22 February 1922, but retained a military presence until 1954.

As of 2018 the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), an agency of the United Nations, listed Law No. 82 of 2002 on the Protection of Intellectual Property Rights as the main IP law enacted by the legislature of Egypt. WIPO holds the text of this law in their WIPO Lex database. A copy of the English text is also held on Commons. Law No. 82 of 2002 repealed Law #354 of 1954, and repealed any provisions of that law that contradicted the provisions of the new law.^{[82/2002 Article 2(c)]}

General rules

According to Law No. 82 of 2002,

• The author's economic rights are protected throughout the lifetime of the author and for 50 years from the date of his death.^{[82/2002 Article 160]}

  • Where the copyright holder is a natural person, the protection period is calculated as in Articles 160 and 161.^{[82/2002 Article 162]}

• The economic rights relating to a posthumous work expire after 50 years from the date the work was published or made available to the public for the first time, whichever comes first.^{[82/2002 Article 162]}

• Producers of sound recordings enjoy an exclusive economic right for 50 years from the date on which the recording was made or made public, whichever comes first.^{[82/2002 Article 167]}

United States status

As a result of the Uruguay Round Agreements Act,

• For non-creative photographic or audiovisual works copyright has expired in Egypt if published prior to 1987 and copyright has expired in the U.S. if published prior to 1981.
• For other works with an identifiable author, copyright has expired in Egypt if the author died prior to 1974 and copyright has expired in the U.S. if the author died prior to 1946 or published prior to 1929.
• For other works that are either anonymous or pseudonymous, copyright has expired in Egypt if published prior to 1974 and copyright has expired in the U.S. if published prior to 1946
• For other works (e.g. collective works) whose copyright is held by a legal person, copyright has expired in Egypt if published prior to 1974 and copyright has expired in the U.S. if published prior to 1946.

• Oral expressions such as folk tales, poetry and charades, and other folklore;
• Musical expressions such as popular songs accompanied by music;

Во ред According to Law No. 82 of 2002 on the Protection of Intellectual Property Rights: "[Copyright protection] shall not cover the following: Official documents, whatever their source or target language, such as laws, regulations, resolutions and decisions, international conventions, court decisions, award of arbitrators and decisions of administrative committees having judicial competence."^{[82/2002 Article 141]}

Freedom of panorama

Во ред even for 2-D artworks. {{FoP-Egypt}}

According to Article 171 of Law No. 82 of 2002:

• Without prejudice to the moral rights of the author, pursuant to the provisions of the law herein, the author may not prevent third parties, after the publication of his work, from undertaking any of the following acts: ...^{[82/2002 Article 171]}
• Make a single copy of the work for one's exclusive personal use, provided that such a copy shall not hamper the normal exploitation of the work nor cause undue prejudice to the legitimate interests of the author or copyright holders;

However, the author or his successor may, after the publication of the work, prevent third parties from carrying out any of the following acts without his authorization:

• Reproduction or copying works of fine, applied or plastic arts, unless they were displayed in a public place, or works of architecture; ...^{[82/2002 Article 171(2)]}

By expressly denying the copyright holder the ability to enforce his copyright on works "displayed in a public place, or works of architecture" freedom of panorama for these items is implied. "Applied art" means art incorporated into useful articles. Plastic arts are three dimensional artworks. Fine arts are painting, photography, and sculpture, so Egypt's FOP is relatively broad, covering everything except text.

This page provides an overview of copyright rules of Libya relevant to uploading works into Wikimedia Commons. Note that any work originating in Libya must be in the public domain, or available under a free license, in both Libya and the United States before it can be uploaded to Wikimedia Commons. If there is any doubt about the copyright status of a work from Libya, refer to the relevant laws for clarification.

Background

Libya was under Ottoman rule until 1911, when it became an Italian colony. From 1943 to 1951, Libya was under British/French occupation. Libya became independent as a kingdom in 1951.

Libya has been a member of the Berne Convention since 28 September 1976.

As of 2018 the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), an agency of the United Nations, listed Law No. 9 for 1968 Issuing the Copyright Protection Law as the main copyright law enacted by the legislature of Libya. WIPO holds the text of this law in their WIPO Lex database. A copy is also held in Wikisource.

Another source, written by IP firm Abu-Ghazaleh Intellectual Property on Mondaq claims that copyright is governed by Law No. 7 of 1984, which is based on Law No. 9 of 1968. According to the source, protection is valid for the lifetime of the author plus a period of 50 years and in order for a work to be protected, the work must be deposited at a "Copyright Protection Office" at the Ministry of Culture & Information within one month of its publication in Libya, or the entry of the work into Libya prior to distribution of 20 copies. Law No. 7 of 1984 is also mentioned by the United States Department of State in an investment climate statement.. However, Law No. 7 of 1984 is a law on depositing binders that are prepared for publication, not on copyright.

Durations

Note: Libya is a party to the Berne Copyright law in 1976, which requires life + 50 years copyright length, however the provisions are only required to be implemented for foreign works, and Libya is not obligated to increase the duration of their own works.

According to Libyan Law No. 9 of 1968,

• Financial utilization rights expire 25 years after the death of the author, provided that the total period of protection shall not be less than 50 years as from the date of first publication of the work.^{[9/1968 Article 20]}
• However, for photographic and cinematic works which are limited to the mere mechanical transmission of scenery, such rights shall expire 5 years from the date of first publication of the work.^{[9/1968 Article 20]}
• The period of protection for joint works of art is calculated from the date of death of the last surviving author.^{[9/1968 Article 20]}
• If the author is a legal public or private entity, the financial utilization rights expire 30 years from the date of first publication of the work.^{[9/1968 Article 20]}
• The financial utilization rights of works of art published anonymously and under a pseudonym expire 25 years after publication of the work, unless the author's identity is revealed within this period^{[9/1968 Article 21]}
• The protection period for works of art published for the first time after the author's death expires 50 years after his death.^{[9/1968 Article 22]}

Privacy rights

According to Libyan Law No. 9 for 1968,

• A photographer may not show, publish or distribute a photograph unless the people depicted in the photograph have consented, unless the photograph is of a public event or of officials or persons enjoying public renown, or the public authorities have given permission for its publication for the general welfare. Notwithstanding the preceding, no photograph may be shown or circulated if doing so would result in detriment to the honour, reputation or social standing of the person depicted in the photograph.^{[9/1968 Article 36]}
• On the other hand, a person depicted in an engraving, painting, photograph, sculpture or other portrait has the right to authorize its publication in magazines, newspapers and similar publications even if the photographer does not consent, unless there is an agreement to the contrary.^{[9/1968 Article 36]}

Not protected

According to Libyan Law No. 9 for 1968, the following works are not subject to copyright, if they are not characterized by innovation, arrangement or any other personal effort worthy of protection^{[9/1968 Article 4]}:

• A collection made up of various works such as verse, prose and music anthologies and other collections. However, each individual work making up the collection is copyrighted.
• A collection of work that has become public property.
• A collection of official documents such as texts of laws, decrees, regulations, international agreements, legal judgements and various official documents.
• Official documents such as texts of laws, decrees, regulations, international agreements, legal judgements and various official documents.

Freedom of panorama

 Не е во ред The Copyright Protection Law of Libya (Libyan Law No. (9) for 1968) does not have a suitable freedom of panorama provision for Wikimedia Commons.

A similar provision is found at Article(17)(b) but is restricted to limited educational uses in books: "The following shall be allowed in school books and in literature, history, science and art books:...(b) Copying published works on graphic art, sculpture and photography provided that copying shall be limited to the extent necessary to explain what is written."^{[9/1968 Article 17(b)]}

Threshold of originality

For photographic and cinematic works which are limited to the mere mechanical transmission of scenery, rights expire 5 years from the date of first publication.^{[9/1968 Article 20]}

Governing laws

In 1912, Morocco was divided into French and Spanish protectorates, with an international zone in Tangier. It regained independence in 1956.

Morocco has been a member of the Berne Convention since 16 June 1917, the World Trade Organization since 1 January 1995 and the WIPO Copyright Treaty since 20 July 2011.

WIPO holds the text of the law as amended in 2006 in their WIPO Lex database.

The 2006 law replaced and repealed Dahir No. 1-69-135 of 25 joumada I 1390 (July 29, 1970), relating to the protection of literary and artistic works.^{[1-05-192/2006 Art.71]} It was not retroactive, and does not apply to works that had already entered the public domain.^{[1-05-192/2006 Art.69]} The protection term under Dahir No. 1-69-135 was 50 years.

General rules

"It shall be permitted, without the author’s authorization or payment of a fee, to republish, broadcast or communicate to the public by cable an image of a work of architecture, a work of fine art, a photographic work, or a work of applied art which is permanently located in a place open to the public, unless the image of the work is the main subject of such a reproduction, broadcast or communication and if it is used for commercial purposes".^{[1-05-192/2006 Art.20]}

Note: all images of works on Commons must be commercially usable; the exception only permits commercial use if the copyrighted work is not the main subject of the reproduction.

Not protected

Works that fit the following criteria are not protected under Moroccan copyright law:

• (a) official texts of a legislative, administrative or judicial nature, nor to their official translations;
• (b) current events;
• (c) ideas, processes, systems, operating methods, concepts, principles, discoveries or simple data, even if these are stated, described, explained, illustrated or incorporated in a work."^{[1-00-20 Art.8]}

De minimis

"It shall be permitted, without the author’s authorization or payment of a fee, to republish, broadcast or communicate to the public by cable an image of a work of architecture, a work of fine art, a photographic work, or a work of applied art which is permanently located in a place open to the public, unless the image of the work is the main subject of such a reproduction, broadcast or communication and if it is used for commercial purposes".^{[1-05-192/2006 Art.20]}

Threshold of originality

Moroccan copyright law defines a work as an "original intellectual creations in the literary and artistic field".^{[1-00-20 Art.3]} The law also specifies that protection is "independent from the mode or form of expression, nor the quality or purpose of the work".^{[1-00-20 Art.3]} This implies that, while present, the TOO in Morocco would be somewhat low.

This page provides an overview of copyright rules of Sudan relevant to uploading works into Wikimedia Commons. Note that any work originating in Sudan must be in the public domain, or available under a free license, in both Sudan and the United States before it can be uploaded to Wikimedia Commons. If there is any doubt about the copyright status of a work from Sudan, refer to the relevant laws for clarification.

Background

In 1898 the British defeated the Mahdist State and began to govern Sudan jointly with Egypt. Sudan obtained self-government in 1953 and full independence on 1 January 1956.

Sudan has been a member of the Berne Convention since 28 December 2000.

As of 2018 the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), an agency of the United Nations, listed the Copyright and Neighboring Rights Protection Act 1996 as the main IP law enacted by the legislature of Sudan. WIPO holds the text of this law in their WIPO Lex database.

General rules

Under the 1996 Act,

• The protection of economic rights in a work shall last during the author’s life and 50 years after his death.^{[1996 Section 13(2)]}
• The term of protection shall last 25 years from the date of publication of the following works:
  • photographic pictures and cinematographic films and other audiovisual works.^{[1996 Section 13(3a)]}
  • works which are published for the first time after the author’s death.^{[1996 Section 13(3b)]}
  • works published under unknown pseudonym or anonymously; the term starts to run from the date of first publication.^{[1996 Section 13(3c)]}
• In relation to a joint work the period shall start to run from the date of death of the last surviving author.^{[1996 Section 13(4)]}

Government works

Under the 1996 law copyright does not extend to state emblems and symbols or official documents.^{[1996 Section 6]} "Official documents" means the official documents issued by the State or its institution, corporation or unit and which, by virtue of their specialization, are issued for publication to the public, including laws, Presidential or administrative orders, international agreements and judicial judgments, but not including military documents, secret agreements and deliberations of secret sessions in courts or legislative bodies".^{[1996 Section 3]}

Folklore: not free

Видете исто така: Commons:Paying public domain

National folklore of the Sudanese community is deemed to be the property of the State. The State represented by the Ministry of Culture and Information, shall endeavor to protect works of folklore by all legal ways and means, and shall exercise the rights of an author in cases of mutilation, transformation and commercial exploitation.^{[1996 Section 7]}

• Во ред: Banknote designs before 18 December 1996
•  Не е во ред: Banknote designs on or after 18 December 1996

Sudan's first copyright law entered into force on 18 December 1996 and did not extend protection to works already in the public domain. Banknotes issued before this date are therefore in the public domain in Sudan. Because these banknotes were in the public domain in Sudan before it joined the Berne Convention (28 December 2000), they are also in the public domain in the United States and may be uploaded to Commons.

The status of banknote designs released after 18 December 1996 is unclear. Under Sudanese copyright law, "official documents" are in the public domain, but banknotes may not fall under the definition of "official documents". If that definition does not include banknotes, then banknotes will be protected for 50 years after the death of the last contributing author.

Freedom of panorama

 Не е во ред Copyright and Neighbouring Rights Protection Act 1996 does not have a usable freedom of panorama provision that allows uses in advertising and other commercial media, of images of copyrighted works of architecture and artistic works permanently located in public spaces.
