Brilliant photograph of Murphy and Beloserkovsky performing a pas de deux in the ballet Sylvia. I self-nominated because I think no one ever sees the picture, its of such a niche topic. I don't think the copyright should be a problem, we have permission from the director of press and public relations at ABT to use the image as we please, as long as the source is cited; Appears in Sylvia (ballet), uploaded by Rmrfstar.

  •   Self-Nominate and support. - Rmrfstar 2 July 2005 01:28 (UTC)
    • If the copyright doesn't permit third party use, it can't be supported here. If the situation is simply that it can be used in any way by anyone, provided that the source is cited, then it can be promoted here. Hopefully it's the latter, because this is a great picture. --brian0918™ 2 July 2005 01:52 (UTC)
      • When I asked for the images (I have more than one from the source), all I was asked of was, "Please credit: American Ballet Theatre's production of Sir Frederick Ashton's Sylvia." -- Rmrfstar 2 July 2005 05:06 (UTC)
        • It matters what you asked them, though. What was your wording? If you said "Can it be used on Wikipedia?", then it can only be used on Wikipedia. --brian0918™ 2 July 2005 15:49 (UTC)
        • If could be licensed {{CopyrightedFreeUseProvidedThat}} 'American Ballet Theatre's production... is creditted' then it would be OK for Featred Pictures. Note however, that this tag would allow general 3rd party use. -- Solipsist 2 July 2005 09:43 (UTC)
          • As best as I can recall, I said I was writing an encyclopedia article on the ballet, and I would like to use the pictures. She just sent them with the one request. I have emailed my contact there again asking about the terms.-- Rmrfstar 3 July 2005 03:28 (UTC)
            • I have just contacted the director of press and PR at ABT and she has stated that the image copyrights need to remain as they are. Any ideas? -- Rmrfstar 5 July 2005 14:01 (UTC)
              • Well done, for getting back in touch with the image owner. Unfortunately the tag as it stands is effectively a FairUse tag as far as FPC is concerned, so I think we will have to close the nomination for now. -- Solipsist 5 July 2005 18:03 (UTC)
  • The copyright right now is not acceptable. This link is Broken 2 July 2005 15:45 (UTC)
