do we have a boilerplate asking about what we believe
to be false copyright claims? I ask because a few
weeks ago I visited the site of a university hosting
pictures from the late 1800s and claiming copyright on
them.
As far as I know, simply scanning an image in does
*not* constitute creative input, and does not make the
photo a derivative work eligible for copyright. I'd
like to go about asking several sites to clarify their
copyright claims, but when I first see something I
strongly suspect to be false and/or greedy, I turn
green and say things like "arrrrgh! smash!"
How should be go about phrasing the question, or has
it been done already?
Thanks,
kq
