Files in Category:Leon Lico Amar

[edit]

We don't know when the Austrian illustrator Leon Lico Amar died (I couldn't find a death year either), so we cannot know if these Austrian / German drawings are really in the PD as claimed or not. Since he was born in 1887, he easily could have lived beyond 1948, which would mean these files are still protected by copyright. The files therefore should be deleted per the precautionary principle.

Very nice. Unfortunately it doesn't have a death year as well. --Rosenzweig τ 20:39, 3 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Today the article had been expanded, now we know the last reference of Leon L. Amar in August 1929. Please try yourself. Best regards, --Bernd Schwabe in Hannover (talk) 22:11, 4 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Dear friends.

  1. Amar is not known as a victim of the Holocaust [1]
  2. We have to initiate an article about BEREK, an enterprise of the city of Berlin. Amar worked for it as artistic advisor when he suddenly seemed to be disappeared in August 1929 just a few weeks before the beginning of the Great Depression - and the beginning of the NAZI terror. Unfortunately in the moment the job to write BEREK is too big for me alone. Who likes to do so, or to help at least?

Your'e welcome. Bernd Schwabe in Hannover (talk) 09:11, 7 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

 Kept, considering circumstances, I take 1929/30 as death year. This puts his works into public domain in Germany, but they were not in PD on URAA date and their copyright was restored in 1996 in USA. 95 years from creation is needed. Taivo (talk) 17:09, 4 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

A previous deletion request for works by Leon Lico Amar was decided as keep because the admin thought he had died in 1929/30. It has since been established that Amar did not die then, but emigrated from Germany to Argentina, where he was still listed as a graphic artist working in Buenos Aires in 1964. For details, see Wikidata Leon Lico Amar and de:Diskussion:Leon Amar. He would have been 77 years old in 1964, so he could have died a few years later, or he could have died at the age of 95 like his younger (by 11 months) sister who died in 1983.

Since he was alive in 1964, his works are still protected in Austria and Germany (where he worked before he emigrated to Argentina). Any works from his time in Argentina could be already in the public domain there as works of applied art, which are protected for 25 years from creation per COM:Argentina. All the works we have from him are from Austria and Germany though., and those are still protected in those countries as well as the US, so the files should be deleted. Since we still don't know when Amar actually died, they should only be restored after 120 years with {{PD-old-assumed}}, but not before 2035.

Yes. Why wouldn't he have? It's even signed. --Rosenzweig τ 21:05, 22 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Rosenzweig: Some of these can be moved to en-WP, even though there's no article on him there yet. Would you like to do that? —holly {chat} 22:16, 19 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Holly Cheng: I have transferred File:Leon Amar - The Evening News.jpg to en.wp as en:File:Leon Amar - The Evening News ca 1910.jpg and added it to the article en:The Evening News (London newspaper). I don't see any uses for other files there. --Rosenzweig τ 12:13, 20 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Deleted: per nomination. —holly {chat} 17:49, 20 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
