Hello. You have a new message at Anupmehra's talk page.
Hi. We're into the last five days of the Women in Red World Contest.

If you've been contributing to the contest, thank you for your support, we've produced over 2000 articles. If you haven't contributed yet, we would appreciate you taking the time to add entries to our articles achievements list by the end of the month. Thank you, and if participating, good luck with the finale!
Hi David, I saw that you uploaded this image back in 2021. The image consists of what looks to be about 200 words of text on a sign; I would expect that to be protected by copyright but perhaps its location on a public sign changes the situation. Does freedom of panorama extend to text in Israel?

- So signs in public places produced by the IAA are copyright free? Is that documented somewhere? That might be useful to add to somewhere like Commons:Commons:Copyright rules by territory/Israel - though perhaps not the ideal place, I'm not sure where would be better.

- It would be better to address your questions regarding this issue to Wikimedia Commons. The legal matters regarding this issue are discussed there.Davidbena (talk) 03:59, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20241009035900","author":"Davidbena","type":"comment","level":4,"id":"c-Davidbena-20241009035900-Richard_Nevell-20241008194100","replies":[]}}-->
