It's really difficult we know but we have to follow USA copyright laws. Wikipedia and Archive have the copyright that the person uploading gives. We do not have a legal team nor can we fight any claims made in USA courts.
USA law is at present that all copyright expires on January 1st of the publication year plus 96 which means it lasts 95 years but no changes are made until the following January 1st.
like everything legal there are exceptions but finding out if they apply is difficult and we just can't do it no matter what we want to do.
All the non USA MCs find this frustrating at times but that is the way it is.
Hello Anne!
Yes, I hoped whether it could be an exception. I can always post it on Legamus, but there is almost no activity there to make a project in a language, in which none of the their users speak.
P.S. Rapunzelina prompt that we can ask Gutenberg to check the copyright, so I'll send a request to them.

Rapunzelina meant that we can use texts that have been published by PG and labeled as PD in the US. For works that aren't available on their site, you (or anyone else) can submit the text for addition to their collection after performing a preliminary copyright check yourself:
