•  Comment I do not believe the pirate costume passes the threshold of originality but the Darth Vader and Storm Troopers do. Move to separate the deletion requests. -Nard 14:57, 10 July 2008 (UTC)

It's not generic pirate costume, but precise (in some degree) imitation of Jack Sparrow character. --EugeneZelenko (talk) 15:03, 10 July 2008 (UTC)

 Keep. If we'll go with your logic that all Category:Cosplay should be deleted because the main idea of this movement is to copy some popular (usually copyrigthed) characters... Electron (talk) 07:43, 14 July 2008 (UTC)

 Comment On the other hand Jack Sparrow character and "The Carribean Pitates (move)" are based on the Carribean Pirates world previous intoduced in Disneyland so they are Commons:Derivative works, too. Many of the main stream of the modern arts are based on previous works, too - we should say... So it is very dificult to say what is the orgin of something and what is not...

It is a Disney movie, so I would bet money that the movie producers are licensed to use the designs from the amusement park. --InfantGorilla (talk) 15:20, 28 January 2009 (UTC)

•  Keep Dressing up in costumes does not violate any copyright. There is a difference between dressing up as a character and dressing up in a 3-D rendering of a cartoon/otherwise character. So long as a person is visible, it's dress, and not a 3-D rendering, and dress is not copyrightable so long as it's being worn by someone. I'm not sure why we keep having this over and over again.

•  Comment There's a wider discussion of the troblem at Commons:Deletion requests/Images of costumes tagged as copyvios by AnimeFan.

I suggest merging this deletion request there. Electron ^<Talk?> 07:51, 13 March 2009 (UTC)

I'll be making a cosplay policy proposal quite soon. Please leave this open until then. --MichaelMaggs (talk) 19:22, 27 March 2009 (UTC)
