Per Philippine copyright law#Government copyright - Dan Dank55 (push to talk) 04:16, 19 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Well, maybe; then again, maybe not ...

The copyvio tag has been re-added and then re-removed. I didn't add the material at issue, but I did move it to this article from Philippine revolts against Spain# Palaris Revolt (1762-1765) so, even though I don't have a horse in this race, I'm not completely uninvolved. In the {{hangon}} tag I placed earlier, I referred to Philippine_copyright_law#Government_copyright. That's just a WP article, of course, and is not the final word on the matter. If anyone is interested in a statuatory reference, see the Intellectual Property Code of the Philippines. I'm not a lawyer, and I have not looked closely at that. Also, I guess that the Berne Convention for the Protection of Literary and Artistic Works might come into play here; both the U.S. and the Philippines being parties to that agreement. -- Boracay Bill (talk) 23:26, 19 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
