Files in Category:Sheikh Zayed Mosque

There is no freedom of panorama in the UAE, therefore these photos can't be hosted on Commons until/if UAE law changes, or the building falls out of copyright.

Violates COM:FOP#United Arab Emirates. es:Mezquita Sheikh Zayed tells that the building was finished in 2007.

Some of the images of people might be de minimis.

  • We seem to be stuck in a merry-go-round of images of this mosque being deleted and then a whole load more being uploaded again. Commons:Deletion requests/Images of Sheikh Zayed Mosque only happened in July. If the category is kept because of some images being de minimis, then a note should be put-up on the category page about the lack of FOP - that might of least slow down the amount of inappropriate uploads.

See discussions immediately above. These images weren't included in the previous nomination because they hadn't been added to the relevant category when I nominated the other files for deletion.

There is no "Freedom of Panorama" in the United Arab Emirates. The building is modern and still under copyright, as are the sculptures, frescoes, etc. within it. These photos may be transferred to local wikis that allow FOP-encumbered photos, but cannot be hosted on Commons.

Files in Category:Sheikh Zayed Mosque[edit]

In most countries, all paintings, sculpture, architecture, text, and other creative works have copyrights which last for 70 years after the death of the creator. An image of a work that is still under copyright is a derivative work, and infringes on the copyright so that we cannot usually keep the image on Commons. In some countries, there is a special exception to the copyright law which allows such images under certain circumstances. We call that exception freedom of panorama (FOP). Unfortunately there is no applicable FOP exception in United Arab Emirates.
