Please MP these 3 profiles. Two are for Leonard Smith, who were born the same year and each has a son named Daniel (one isn't in the tree yet), and they have similar dates. It's so easy for the Smith line to become entangled, I think it would be a good idea to MP them.

Capt Leonard Smith

Leonard Smith

Daniel Smith, Sr

I have added this note to their profiles: Caution: There is another Leonard Smith (July 15, 1770 - May 08, 1847), and he also has a son named Daniel (28 Sep 1794 - 16 May 1868), whose dates are similar to the son Daniel (May 10, 1792 - May 08, 1866) of this Leonard Smith.

There would have been no Herman Melville and his works without the generosity and support of the Shaw women

Lemuel Shaw, Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Massachusetts and a boyhood friend of Melville’s father, had remained loyal to the fatherless Melvilles. Herman dedicated Typee to Shaw, and fell in love with his daughter Elizabeth. Herman and Elizabeth were married on August 4, 1847. The couple honeymooned in Canada.

With a $2,000 loan from his father-in-law to contribute toward the purchase price, Melville and his brother Allan, also newly married, bought the house at 103 Fourth Avenue for joint occupancy and moved their mother, sisters and a brother in with them and their brides. The new Mrs. Herman Melville kept her stepmother in Boston informed of her daily life:

These two profiles are the same and need to be merged, but the parents on the right are incorrect. The manager is inactive.

Hi! Could you please assist me - I have several master profiles on my personal tree and I can't contact/message the curator who "curates" it. Please let me know as how best to proceed with getting her removed off the profiles. Thank you!

Private User , per copyright law in Germany, it is allowed to use because there is no author mentioned on the photograph and the photograph was published more than 70 years ago.

For Geni I dont think they respect national laws, only for where the servers are located.
In Norway we have a constitutional law, § 97 which tells that no law/rule can be retroactive, i.e. is not valid for issues before the law became valid. For photos it means that it is the copyright rules that was valid when the photo was taken that is valid, not newer more strict laws.
This means that, as I have heard, that no private photos taken before 1975 can be claimed copyright on. Artistic/professional photos/paintings some longer, but much less that todays rules.

Yes, listing sources to give credit where it's due and having more than one document is important when creating a profile of a relative.

How long does copyright protection last?
The length of copyright protection depends on when a work was created. Under the current law, works created on or after January 1, 1978, have a copyright term of life of the author plus seventy years after the author’s death. If the work is a joint work, the term lasts for seventy years after the last surviving author’s death. For works made for hire and anonymous or pseudonymous works, copyright protection is 95 years from publication or 120 years from creation, whichever is shorter. Works created before 1978 have a different timeframe. Learn more about copyright duration in our Duration of Copyrights Circular. https://www.copyright.gov/what-is-copyright/

Hirtle chart helps you in determining whether the work is in the public domain in the United States or not. It depends on whether it has copyright notice, renewal and registration. Works that were published after March 1, 1989 are under copyright no matter what unless it is a work of the United States federal government, or some agencies of California and Florida state governments, or others that are released into CC0.
