- it is difficult to do something, as there are mostly no sources and licences giver; probably it can be PD, but commons would not keep them I am afraid. -jkb- 08:54, 13 February 2007 (UTC)

This text is copied from a self-publication. Besides that, the source text makes no claim that it is in the public domain or that it is available under a free license (but even if it was, it would still not qualify for inclusion, since it does not seem to have appeared in a medium that includes peer review or editorial controls and is purely an expression of opinion.

This text is from a forum posting. It has not been published in a medium that includes peer review or editorial controls and is purely an expression of opinion. It also makes no claim that it is available under a free license or has been released into the public domain. I would suggest the information be inserted into a Wikipedia article (the text discusses the Old Apostolic Church), but the source wouldn't even qualify as a reliable one.

Nopetro's edits
I gues that the User:Nopetro [edited here on December 1st] without the knowledge which domain he is logged in. I questioned him about the sence of the new pages but there is no answer. I propose the Edits should be deleted. -jkb- 17:29, 3 December 2009 (UTC)
Galaktion Tabidze
I am afraid that all texts from this author here - see Galaktion Tabidze - are copyvios as the author died 1959 (see e.g. w:en:Galaktion Tabidze). I contacted the users User talk:Antonio and User talk:Tokoko. If there will be no answer we have to delete them all (but possibly in some 3 weeks they could be published on Wikilivres anyway). -jkb- 14:45, 10 December 2009 (UTC)
- You're right, but I as a citizen of Georgia can confirm that the Government, the Council of writers and poets, the Patriarchate, and many other institutions have opened creativity Tabidze in the public domain, because Taidze very famous and beloved poet of all Georgians.--თეკა 14:57, 10 December 2009 (UTC)
- Difficult to understand what you mean. What some councils, Patriarchate or some institutions do is one point. The other one is the fact that (as far as I know) the Georgian copyright law protect work 70 years after the death of the author. Some institution, a Patriarch, council or even the government cannot open a protected work into the public domain (the legislative can do it). The holder of the copyright title can do it, and this is the author itself or the testamentary heir. If you have some links that provide the text PD so please let us know.

- I won't be saying that the tests are in PD. Unfortunately, I have to agree that 70 years haven't paseed. But this human is a classic of Georgian literature, who had greatly influenced Georgian Culture , and who is considered to be the King of Georgian Poets. Also, I can assure you that there won't be problems with relatives of Galaktion. Please remember, that the main purpose of policies of Wikimedia Foundation is protecting it's projects. In this case bureaucracy is not clever, as we will lose a lot, and won't get anything back. --Gaeser 18:30, 10 December 2009 (UTC)
