Note:
The work from which this material was taken was originally published in 1902 but was republished in a new edition in 1982. There is a strong possibility that it is still in copyright. andy (talk) 09:29, 11 March 2009 (UTC)
- And a possibility that it isn't. As it's not a clear cut case, I declined the speedy and used {{copyvio}} instead. Regards SoWhy 12:13, 11 March 2009 (UTC)
- The content of this and other articles on members of the Samma Dynasty was taken from "History of Sind - translated from Persian books" by Mirza Kalichbeg Fredunbeg (1853-1929)[1] published in Karachi in 1902 and reproduced on the [Packard Humanities Institute] site. All copyrightable works published in the United States before 1923 are in the public domain. In India copyright expires sixty years from the beginning of the calendar year following the year in which the author dies, or expired in 1990 in this case. Pakistan, the only other jurisdiction that could apply, protects copyright until fifty years from the beginning of the calendar year next following the year in which the author dies, or 1980 in this case. Based on this, the material is clearly in the public domain. Aymatth2 (talk) 15:33, 13 March 2009 (UTC)
