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
