Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: This is the infamous "Miranda warning". It's words which police officers in the United States are required to read when arresting people to inform them about their "rights". It is used for a Wikipedia article on "Rights". I typed in the warning on a paint program and uploaded the image. There are no copyright issues regarding the words since it's a matter of public record. Sometimes the wording varies slightly depending on which state the arrest happens in. |

Licensing[edit]
|
The depicted text is ineligible for copyright and therefore in the public domain because it is not a “literary work” or other protected type in sense of the local copyright law. Facts, data, and unoriginal information which is common property without sufficiently creative authorship in a general typeface or basic handwriting, and simple geometric shapes are not protected by copyright.
This tag does not generally apply to all images of texts. Particular countries can have different legal definition of the “literary work” as the subject of copyright and different courts' interpretation practices. Some countries protect almost every written work, while other countries protect distinctively artistic or scientific texts and databases only. Extent of creativeness, function and length of the text can be relevant. The copyright protection can be limited to the literary form – the included information itself can be excluded from protection.
