=== Usage ===

This template adds the [[:Category:Images published abroad that are in the public domain in the United States|Images published abroad that are in the public domain in the United States]] category.

'''IMPORTANT FEATURE'''

Using

<nowiki>{{PD-US-1923-abroad|out_of_copyright_in=YEAR}}</nowiki>

will automatically ask for the image to be moved to commons at the appropriate time. Remember that copyright expires ''at the start of the year after''. For instance, an author who died in {{#expr:{{CURRENTYEAR}}-70}} in a country with a copyright term of life+70 goes out of copyright - not 70 years after his date of death in {{CURRENTYEAR}}, but at the start of {{#expr:{{CURRENTYEAR}}+1}}.


'''Example of usage:'''

<nowiki>{{PD-US-1923-abroad|out_of_copyright_in=</nowiki>{{#expr:{{CURRENTYEAR}}+1}}<nowiki>}}</nowiki>

For an author who died in {{#expr:{{CURRENTYEAR}}-70}} in a life+70 country.

'''Alternative, shorter usage:'''

<nowiki>{{PD-US-1923-abroad|</nowiki>{{#expr:{{CURRENTYEAR}}+1}}<nowiki>}}</nowiki>

Same circumstances.
