User:Wikiacc/Public Domain Day

In Commons' c:COM:Public Domain Day, newly free files are undeleted on January 1st each year. This page is to track my efforts in a similar vein:

• deleted files that will become safe to undelete
• non-free files that will enter the public domain in the US ({{Out of copyright in}} is often used for this purpose, arguably incorrectly)
