• Taken from a copyrighted video on Youtube (watch?v=IIH3wg7yqnw). Unusual image choice, caption was a joke. Overall credibility questionable. Melonbob (talk) 03:15, 20 January 2016 (UTC)

• No proof that this is free in Rhodesia. Steel1943 (talk) 05:05, 20 January 2016 (UTC)
• Government works are protected for 50 years from publication in the United Kingdom, and this rule is usually also used in former British colonies, but with exceptions. If that rule is used in Zimbabwe, then the file is free in Zimbabwe but still copyrighted in the United States. --Stefan2 (talk) 22:39, 21 January 2016 (UTC)

• I stumbled across this from Talk:Social_network_change_detection#picture_copyright, where the uploader states "{{tq|Since we have permission to access to this paper freely, and I noted that the author is McCullon as well as the link to the .pdf file, I believe it is legal}}", and also discusses rather arbitrarily placing a CC BY-SA tag and misunderstanding how licenses work. Then again, there's a small chance this could be PD-ineligible as too simple (but I'm not a lawyer), but in any event, the current CC BY-SA tag is wrong.

• Not a good case for PD-ineligible there in my opinion; too much of what is there (disposition of the lines and dots mainly) seems like it'd be creative and could create a legit claim of copyrightability.Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 13:18, 29 January 2016 (UTC)
