This perpetual copyright will eventually end

This template is by far mostly applied to the King James version of the Bible in the UK. It will no longer be under perpetual copyright as of 2039, fifty years after the 1998 Copyright, Designs and Patents Act was enacted (which happened in 1999). See Copyright, Designs and Patents Act 1988 c. 48 SCHEDULE 1 Perpetual copyright under the Copyright Act 1775 Section 13. legislation.gov.uk Last accessed 24 Oct 2011.

Nice addition. Does this cover the copyright of Peter and Wendy which is to a hospital (Hospital for Sick Children) and not a universities/colleges. We could add a parameter "rights_holder" to indicate which institution has the 'perpetual' copyright in the UK. John Vandenberg ^(chat) 06:22, 25 October 2011 (UTC)
