Per COM:FOP#Kazakhstan. en:Almaty Tower tells that this is a modern building.

Please keep it because this building is of a simple shape - nothing copyrightable here / thanks — Preceding unsigned comment added by 188.104.119.159 (talk • contribs) 2012-12-06T19:59:04 (UTC)

The building looks complex to me. There is no entry for Kazakhstan at [[COM:TOO, though. --Stefan4 (talk) 21:07, 6 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

COM:TOO does not really help here because it is more or less just an incomplete collection of experiences with other images. The TV tower is not too complex, it is just a concrete tube with simple stabilization structures attached to it. The rest are just technological elements like antennas. There is no mentionable creative work on it nor is there any creative or artistic value of it. The mentionable aspect with this tower might be the statical or mathematical works of the civil engineers. Or, stefan4, what exactly do you think is copyrightable on his tower? / thanks

Comment One of those images has been discussed here Commons:Deletion requests/File:Kok Tobe in Almaty.jpg. I support the previous arguments, so Keep. --High Contrast (talk) 21:32, 7 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Well, I support the arguments in Commons:Deletion requests/File:E8436-Almaty-TV-Tower.jpg (same building, different photo), so Delete. --Stefan4 (talk) 21:40, 7 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- ??? This image is uncluded in your DR here. Please look again. --High Contrast (talk) 21:44, 7 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  - Yes, but in Commons:Deletion requests/File:E8436-Almaty-TV-Tower.jpg the same building was found to be copyrighted, and there is no entry for Kazakhstan at COM:TOO. Without any other information, we should probably treat all buildings from Kazakhstan as copyrightable. The only country where we know that buildings may be below the threshold of originality is France. --Stefan4 (talk) 22:00, 7 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Files in Category:Almaty Tower

Almaty tower was built in 1983. In most countries, all paintings, sculpture, architecture, text, and other creative works have copyrights which last for a certain period (usually 70 years) of time after the death of the creator (be it the last-surviving architect, engineer, designer, sculptor, engraver, or painter). An image of a work that is still under copyright is considered as a derivative work, and infringes on the copyright so therefore 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 Commons:Freedom of panorama (FoP). Unfortunately, Kazakhstan has no Commons-acceptable FoP.
