Template:PD-NL-Gov/en

This template has been nominated for deletion since 20 November 2012. To discuss it, please visit the nomination page. Do not remove this tag until the deletion nomination is closed. Reason for the nomination: The law referred to does not make government works public domain. Article 15b says :The further communication to the public or reproduction of a literary, scientific or artistic work communicated to the public by or on behalf of the public authorities shall not be deemed an infringement of the copyright in such a work, unless the copyright has been explicitly reserved, either in a general manner by law, decree or ordinance, or in a specific case by a notice on the work itself or at the communication to the public. Even if no such reservation has been made, the author shall retain the exclusive right to have appear in the form of a collection his works which have been communicated to the public by or on behalf of the public authorities.As User:Avenue said at Commons:Village_pump/Copyright#Category:Mohammed_Bouyeri_and_PD-NL-Gov, Reproduction and distribution are allowed, yes, but not the creation of derivative works. So this is essentially a "no derivatives" permission, which is much more restrictive than PD, and would not usually be sufficient for the work to be hosted on Commons.
