I uploaded these two files a while back with a public domain license ([[Template:PD-Japan-exempt]]), as my understanding was that material (including images such as these?) published by local government authorities in Japan is exempt from copyright and falls into the public domain. I don't have access to the actual URL from which the images came right now, but I recall they were from somewhere on the [http://www.town.moroyama.saitama.jp official Moroyama Town website]. Both images were however recently deleted as copyright violations. I would like to confirm whether I was correct in uploading these with a public domain license - in which case I would like to see them restored - or whether my understanding was mistaken and they should not have been uploaded to Commons. I have previously uploaded another similar file under the same license and premise ([[:File:Kawagoe Station west exit forecourt artists impression.jpg]]), so that may also need to be removed if my understanding of Japanese public domain is mistaken. --[[User:DAJF|DAJF]] ([[User talk:DAJF|talk]]) 06:54, 14 March 2013 (UTC)

:Please add [[:File:Kawagoe Station west exit forecourt artists impression.jpg]] to the list of files to possibly be un-deleted, as it was deleted after this discussion started. As with the two images above, it was an image included in a notice of scheduled construction work published by a local city government ([[:en:Kawagoe , Saitama]]) in Japan. --[[User:DAJF|DAJF]] ([[User talk:DAJF|talk]]) 01:05, 15 March 2013 (UTC)
