United States

The US is now a life+70 although there are residual hang-overs from previous (c) regimes. That should be mentioned. Also, even if you do not want to list every work that will fall out of copyright in the US, the use of paragraphs rather than tables makes that section harder to read. A table could be called "Major works ..." or something, but there should be tables. Lamona (talk) 04:03, 30 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

The life + 70 clause isn't active until 2049, and not properly before 2073. See Public domain in the United States. IdiotSavant (talk) 10:27, 30 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Tables for the US will only add unnecessary kilobytes to the already large size of the article. Compiling tables for the life + 50 sections of this and later years' articles is trouble enough! -- SethAllen623 (talk) 07:11, July 4, 2025 (UTC)

The board game Sorry!

My friends told me Sorry! becomes public domain in 2030, however i saw no renewal for the board game, but i saw one for Monopoly: https://www.gutenberg.org/cache/epub/54299/pg54299-images.html

If it's true, then i guess no need to add it to list? @SethAllen623 ZigZagTheTigerSkunk (talk) 09:30, 7 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
