File:1983 Postage stamp of UpperVolta, Freres Robert, La Carolina- 619a.jpg (delete | talk | history | logs) – uploaded by Chienlit ( | contribs | uploads).

• Delete: Fails WP:NFC#Images #3 and WP:NFCC#8 - non-free stamp image being used in non-stamp articles only one of which has a fair-use rationale. In each instance prose could or does provide enough information that the use of a non-free image in the articles will not be detrimental to the reader's understanding of the article. ww2censor (talk) 16:35, 6 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
• Question Do we have any idea whether Upper Volta copyrighted its stamps? I'm not arguing for keeping under "maybe it's free", but if we could find that it's PD, there wouldn't be any reason to delete. Nyttend (talk) 16:24, 10 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• I am not a lawyer, but I see that Burkino Faso, previously Upper Volta, were signatories to the 1971 Berne convention, under which copyright subsists to the author for his life plus 50 years as a minimum, though they did not sign the "Universal Copyright Convention" per this. This suggest a minimum 50-year copyright and maybe more, such as author's life plus 50 years. I could not easily find any more on the World Intellectual Property Organization website so 1983 seems way off the mark.
• Now I found this Copyright Statute which confirms general copyright of the author's life plus 50 years but Articles 24 and 48 indicate a 20 year copyright for State works but only where there is no agreement to the contrary, which unfortunately we cannot verify. ww2censor (talk) 06:29, 11 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Recent stamps are produced by Cartor etc, and I'd bet a dollar they're all keeping the rights to themselves, to resell to the next exploitable country. I can't make out the imprint on this particular issue, and it's not in my own collection. In the time period I see Cartor and Impressor S.A. at least. Stan (talk) 17:35, 11 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep - What is being illustrated is the stamp series itself. The stamp series is not notable enough to have its own article, and so details on the stamp series is incorporated into the 'Four Great Inventions' article.
