Image Tagging Image:Windows_of_our_Lives.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Windows_of_our_Lives.jpg. I notice the image page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the media on Wikimedia Commons (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page. If the content is a derivative of a copyrighted work, you need to supply the names and a licence of the original authors as well.
If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag, then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then you can use {{self|cc-by-sa-2.5}} to release it under the Creative Commons or {{PD-self}} to release it into the public domain. See Commons:Copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
Note that any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have uploaded other media, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. You can find all your uploads using the Gallery tool. Thank you.

{{Help me}} Sorry about that. Meant to mark it GFDL (took picture myself 2005) made myself, but apparently didn't click the box. This picture as well as another Ludington State Park 2005 001.jpg also did not mark it this way. That was my intention on all the pictures, since these are my pictures I took with my Sony digital camera. Can you correct these without me having to upload them again, since I have dial up and it is veeeerrrry slow. Am I then making them correctly as they should be? --Doug Coldwell 22:25, 9 January 2007 (UTC)
- How do I corrected the copyright tagging when I accidently didn't mark it? Please see My Talk discussion for more. --Doug Coldwell 22:45, 9 January 2007 (UTC)
- Just click edit on image description tag and add it manually. See your image with tag as example. --EugeneZelenko 15:39, 10 January 2007 (UTC)
Please give images good descriptions
I noticed you've uploaded Image:WPV Making Garments.jpg and I thought I should turn your attention to a common error.
Please give some thought to writing a good description of uploaded images. This ensures that they can be used in more than one way. It also helps those that review and improve categories do a better job, which also ensures that images will get used in novel and interesting ways. Thanks, and happy editing! -- Bryan (talk to me) 20:33, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
Thanks for comment. These pictures I am no uploading are of an outdoor historic museum in Ludington, Michigan called Historic "White Pine Village". I am presently doing a 'sandbox' on this about to start a new article called White Pine Village with several pictures I took showing what it is all about. This particular picture then perhaps might be better described as White Pine Village demonstrating making garments.JPG or is it O.K. of just WPV demonstrating making garments.JPG? Would that wording be proper to make as the picture name? I will upload then another version, if that is the case. Looking at the Categories under "Cities of Michigan" there is an "L", however there is not the city of Ludington. Can you make such a sub-category for me. Then I could put several pictures into this sub-category. How do I categorize these now labeled as "Orphins" into the new sub-category of "Ludington" of the "Cities of Michigan" of "Michigan" of "States of the United States"? I don't understand how to do it, even after I tried. Perhaps you could give me the coding here and I could copy and paste into editing of the pictures? Can you put answers here. Thanks for your help - Doug
- I have created Category:Ludington, Michigan for you. You can add images to this category by adding the following text to the image description page:
[[Category:Ludington, Michigan]]
. Also write in the image page where the picture is taken, etc. -- Bryan (talk to me) 21:24, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
Great! Thanks!!! That works for me. I am using the typical wording then: Took picture myself 2005 in Ludington, Michigan. Is that proper? Also highlited? Sandbox included showing you what I am doing that will soon be a new Article. What do you think???- Doug
- That's fine, but also say what is on the image Small house, Took picture myself 2005 in Ludington, Michigan. Thank you for taking the time to do this! -- Bryan (talk to me) 22:24, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
I'll do that. Now I understand why further description is needed. Also just ran a "Gallery" on my pictures and it shows them "untagged", however I tagged them all GFDL self (since I took the pictures myself). These are not in danger of being deleted are they? I believe I did it proper, what do you think? I have uploaded more pictures, however apparently the software (or whatever) is still catching up (apparently 4+ hours behind).- Doug

Hello!
Thank you for providing images to the Wikimedia Commons. Please keep in mind that images uploaded to the Commons should be useful to all users of Wikimedia projects. This is possible only if the images can be found by other people.
To allow others to find the images you uploaded here, the images should be in some place that can be found by navigating the category structure. This means that you should put the images into appropriate category and optionally place the images on topic pages (galleries), or do both (see Commons:Categories). To find good categories for your images, the CommonSense tool may help.
You can find a convenient overview of your uploaded files in this gallery.
The important point is that the images should be placed in the general structure somewhere. There are a large number of completely unsorted images on the Commons right now. If you would like to help to place some of those images where they can be found, please do!
Thank you. Cary "Bastiq▼e" Bass demandez 15:18, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

Hi Doug,
I understand your reasoning. However, It seems doubtful to me that it was originally published in these colours. The whole design of the cover breaths a 20th century atmosphere and is no doubt copyrighted by the publisher. If you single out the original medieval drawing, without the background of the publisher, it would prbably be ok.
kind regards,
Teun Spaans 19:11, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
Yes, you are correct: The top part of the image I did myself today to show approximately what the book cover of the translation of Petrarch's book called "Book Without A Name" looks like so others interested can get it a the library (so they will recognize it). I am working on writing up a new article called: Liber Sine Nomine. I didn't know if the scanned in version of the book cover was permitted due to possible copyright infringments on their book of 1973 (the translation of Petrarch's original latin). I will be glad to send you personally that scanned in cover and the page with the information about the medieval original drawing information they put in their book to show it is an expired copyright. Just using the drawing part with the top part I added personally; then making this my work with a medieval drawing of the Fifteenth century (expired). Do you want those e-mails of attachments (2 attachments, each 1 mb) to show this? --Doug Coldwell 19:40, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
- I am not sure I understand all the details, but I understand that you added the background to simulate the cover.
- Indeed a cover of 1973 would not be allowed - the copyright expires at the earliest in 2043. I think the 15th century drawing scan would be allowed. It would be OK to upload that scan - being mediaval there never was any copyright on it. In such a case, do mention the book as a source.
- I am not sure it is allowed to reproduce a (close) imitation of a cover which you made yourself. I am simply not that an expert on copyrights. If you want to try to keep this, please copy this discussion to its talk page.
- kind regards,
Teun Spaans 20:18, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
I have since changed all the colors also. There are no original colors that are like the book cover. Only the medieval drawing used plus the lettering I done naming the book title + the ISBN number. --Doug Coldwell 20:50, 10 February 2007 (UTC)Doug

Video "Ogg" files
Can someone give me an actual list of "ogg" VIDEO files that are used in Wikipedia articles? Not interested in these files that are associated with any User, but in ACTUAL acticles so I can see some example usages of these type video files actually being used. I am suspicious there are very few (if any) such ACTUAL articles that incorporate these type files. Can someone give me say a few dozen actual examples of usage now from apparently some 400 such files that have been uploaded. I am NOT very sophisticated in this type of searching, so I am just looking for an actual list of such articles that I can just go look up. Please, someone help me!!! Thanks alot. --Doug Coldwell 00:05, 25 February 2007 (UTC)
That info isn't easy to find. Here's a list with videos on commons, by use on wikimedia wikis. I generated this by asking the toolserver database for all videos, and then running that list through CheckUsage. Note that the english wikipedia is missing because of technical difficulties. Even without en:wp, i count more than 400 uses (in the main namespace) of the about 550 videos we have.
About the structure of that file: It is a tab separated table with sections. There is a section for each wiki, and in each line, the first name is the name of an article on that wiki. After that is a list with videos used on that page.
HTH -- Duesentrieb ⇌ 01:32, 25 February 2007 (UTC)
That is great! Thanks. I am looking at these videos now in my research of this pertaining to "ogg" video files. That was MOST useful. Sometime in the future, should you also get the English parts; please feel free to make a link and drop onto my Talk Page. I would appreciate that. Thanks again for this work as I realize it is NOT easy information to get. FYI: the reason I am doing this research is because I am having trouble with an editor that will NOT allow me to enter a couple of "ogg" videos into an article as an "edit" improvement. I have worded the entry as neutral as possible, however he will still not allow me to enter in videos. He says videos are "original research". However from these hundreds of videos you are able to show me, it looks like they are used on articles all the time. Thanks again for your work on this. --Doug Coldwell 15:52, 25 February 2007 (UTC)

Model A?
Hi. Could you please take another look at Image:NCTM Model A Ford.jpg which you list as a 1919 " Model A Ford". 1919 looks plausible, but Model A Ford does not-- Ford was producing Model T's exclusively in 1919. Ford made a short lived Model A in 1903 - 1904, and then the name "Model A" was revived by Ford for a completely different vehicle that was one of the most popular of the late 1920s and early 1930s. Neither of them look anything like this; see the categories for examples. Perhaps you mis-captioned this image? Or might it be the "Model A" of some company other than Ford? It looks like an electric vehicle to me. Thanks. Cheers, -- Infrogmation 17:11, 19 December 2007 (UTC)
- Okay, after comparing photos and a bit of research, I'm almost certain this is a Detroit Electric Model A. I have been bold and changed the image description and category on the image page accordingly; I hope you don't object (please let me know if you do). Thank you, -- Infrogmation 17:24, 19 December 2007 (UTC)
I do believe you are correct. Thanks for noticing and correcting the caption.--Doug Coldwell 21:38, 19 December 2007 (UTC)

If you can add a statement to the image description that says the sculpture was made before 1989 without a copyright notice or before 1923, do so and remove the copyvio tag. Otherwise the picture has to go. There is no Freedom of Panorama in the US like there is in the UK. Simonxag 13:59, 15 April 2008 (UTC)

Hello Doug Coldwell/Archive 1!
Thank you for providing images to Wikimedia Commons. Please keep in mind that images uploaded to Commons should be useful to all users of Wikimedia projects. This is possible only if the images can be found by other people.
To allow others to find the images you uploaded here, the images should be in some place that can be found by navigating the category structure. This means that you should put the images into appropriate topic pages, categories, optionally galleries, or both of them (see Commons:Categories). To find good categories for your images, the CommonSense tool may help.
You can find a convenient overview of your uploaded files in this gallery.
The important point is that the images should be placed in the general structure somewhere. There are a large number of completely unsorted images on Commons right now. If you would like to help to place some of those images where they can be found, please do!
Thank you. BotMultichill (talk) 12:42, 26 June 2008 (UTC)

There seems to be a problem regarding the description and/or licensing of this particular file. It has been found that you've added in the image's description only a Template that's not a license and although it provides useful informations about the image, it's not a valid license. Could you please resolve this problem, adding the license in the image linked above? You can edit the description page and change the text. Uploading a new version of the file does not change the description of the file. This page may give you more hints on which license to choose. Thank you.

Doug, it appears you uploaded three different images under the name Image:Brookgreen Gardens Sculpture24.jpg. The middle one exists as Image:Brookgreen Gardens24c.jpg, but the Alligator Bender is nowhere else. Was that a mistake, or did you not intend to publish that first upload?

Deletion requests
I have noticed some of your deletion requests for duplicate images have been malformed. Please consider, in the future, using {{Bad name}} or {{Duplicate}} instead when you want to change the name of an image or when you have a case of duplicate images. It appears you were using {{Delete}} on the image page, and the deletion request page. You don't need a full on deletion request for cases like this because they qualify for speedy deletion, so I have changed the templates for you. Also, on the deletion request subpage, you need to use {{Delete2}} instead of {{Delete}}. Yeah, I know it's confusing. After you tag an image for deletion, there are instructions with code you can use to copy and paste included on the deletion template, if that helps. If you need help trying to sort all that out, I'd be glad to try to help further. Just keep in mind those first two templates for speedy in the future and you should be good. Hope this helped (as opposed to just confused you more). Good luck~-Andrew c (talk) 16:32, 14 January 2009 (UTC)
- There is a currently a backlog of almost 800 images in the duplicate category. I checked and your images are there. You've done everything right on your end. Now we just need some admins to work on clearing up the backlog. So be patient. I'm sure your duplicate files will be deleted shortly. -Andrew c (talk) 13:59, 16 June 2009 (UTC)

OTRS
Dear Doug,
I would advise you send your E-mails for the images under DR to "permissions-commons@wikimedia.org" as Admin MBisanz advises here: here
If you have any questions (on the wording of the permission, etc), please contact Matt as he is a member of the OTRS team on Commons. Normally, the flickr owner would say he/she licenses images X, Y, Z on a Creative Commons Attribution OR Creative Commons ShareAlike Attribution license in an E-mail from his/her address to you and then you would forward the E-mail message to "permissions-commons@wikimedia.org." I don't know if that is needed in this case but this is the preferred option. MBisanz may know more. With kind Regards, --Leoboudv (talk) 03:10, 20 March 2009 (UTC)
Dear Leoboudv,
Answer to your comments: These are NOT e-mails for permission to use the images. These are REQUESTS to the the flickr owner asking if she would license the images on a Creative Commons Attribution OR Creative Commons ShareAlike Attribution license. She agreed and set her license on that picture and several others to the required license as shown here as one of her pictures in the list that is still on Wikipedia:
- www.flickr.com/photos/kumquatqueen/1430551866/in/set-72157602143458733/
Below is the original REQUEST asking if she would lower here copyright tags to the appropriate ones required, which she did.
- To: Moment's Sun No real name given
- Subject: Sansepolcro roofs
- I write articles for Wikipedia. Your picture is interesting and would fit into one or more of the articles I am presently writing on.
- There is at least one tag in use that makes your picture not usable on Wikipedia.
- www.flickr.com/photos/kumquatqueen/1396883703/
- www.flickr.com/photos/kumquatqueen/1396870697/in/photostream/
- Would you consider downgrading your copyright tags to "Attribution License" -or- "Attribution-ShareAlike License" so I could use them on some Wikipedia articles. Do you have any other similar pictures? Thanks for your consideration. Doug Coldwell
This is some three months later. Probably she moved her pictures to different groups on Flickr and that is the reason they no longer show up in the same place today. At the time they were uploaded to Wikipedia they were licensed correctly and approved by Wikipedia then. They were shown to her as being uploaded and she did not disagree to anything - since she previously had already agreed to the proper license and set them correctly. I have no personal interest in the photographs myself other than I thought they would enhance an article. The article I have no particular interest in. I did not start the article nor am the major contributor to the article. Only interested in enhancing articles with pictures I found on Flickr - which were licensed correctly when uploaded! If you want to now some three months later to remove her pictures, its fine by me. However I think she is going to be disappointed. I did point out in the beginning she is an attorney, so whatever legal actions she wants to persue on this is up to her. I will forward these conversations to her since you desired not to communicate to her about the fact she had the proper license when they were uploaded. Keep in mind the pictures were licensed correctly when uploaded to Wikipedia and approved then by BOTH Wikipedia and the owner of the Flickr pictures, so there can not be a copyright violation. There is obvioulsy some other reason for pulling her pictures now. --Doug Coldwell (talk) 12:16, 20 March 2009 (UTC)
- The pictures are still on Flickr and under a correct license for Wikipedia. They have been renamed and its probably why they can not be found now.
- http://www.flickr.com/photos/kumquatqueen/2871359309/in/set-72157607406550108/ in Flickr NOW called "Sansepolcro" is now in Commons called File:Sansepolcro church walls and bells.jpg
- http://www.flickr.com/photos/kumquatqueen/2872213796/in/set-72157607406550108/ in Flickr NOW called "Church against the sky, Sansepolcro" is now in Commons called File:Sansepolcro church bells against the sky.jpg
- Comment I would still advise you contact MBisanz about the pictures...just to be safe. I will cancel my DR on your pictures because you are a truthworthy uploader. --Leoboudv (talk) 19:28, 20 March 2009 (UTC)
- This is another case like yours I notice. Click on the Dalai Lama to see the comments on the actual status of the photo. It is not a regular OTRS...so there is some doubt. --Leoboudv (talk) 19:36, 20 March 2009 (UTC)
- Sent e-mail. Done --Doug Coldwell (talk) 20:15, 20 March 2009 (UTC)
Response
I apologise for casting doubt on your credibility. Its just that in those 2 images, the difference between the time of upload and the flickr review was miniscule--only a few hours. Many Admins are also mistrustful of such images because a person could place a copy vio and then add in a non-existent flickr link to get the picture onto Commons. You asked me if an image is non-revocable if it is passed by flickr review and the answer is certainly yes. Look at this image: File:Ricky Nelson free.jpg It was passed by flickr review...and then sometime later the flickr owner changed the license and placed a non-Commercial restriction on it. But in this case, its too late because it was free at the time when flickr reviewed it!
As for those 2 images of the Sansepolcro church, I notice the flickr image link now shows the pictures today. So, I have ordered a new {{Flickrreview}} for them here and here and here. Once flickr passes them, they are safe from deletion forever. They also will never be in limbo here Your 3 images of the church were placed in this category where the original flickr image was (thought to be) deleted. I would say that 99% of the photos in this category were uploaded legitimately in 2005/2006 but the flickr review system didn't come into existence until sometime after mid-2006 (by which time the flickr owners had deleted the images presumably because they disagreed with its use!)
- This is the 1% which is a probable copy vio: File:Thomas Back.jpg A single image by an uploader that is used in an orphaned article and has no metadata. That is very suspicious.
Should there be some policies which assume an image is passed within 2 or 3 days of upload? I don't know. That is a question you should pose to Admin MBisanz if you wish because I am neither a trusted user nor an Admin. I am not 100% tuned into Common's policies here. Sorry. BTW, I notice flickr review has now passed your images of Sansepolcro church. Here is one of them: File:Sansepolcro church walls and bells.jpg Congratulations. --Leoboudv (talk) 00:37, 23 March 2009 (UTC)
- Your form letter looks fine. However, Creative Commons licensed images can only be used on Commons if they have no 'non-Commercial' and no 'non-Derivatives' restrictions. That is why I ask a flickr owner if they are willing to license an image copyright free with either an "Attribution Creative Commons" OR an "Attribution-ShareAlike Creative Commons" license. (I don't mention that these 2 licenses allow the flickr picture to be commercially used because I have already said this in my 'Copyright free' statement) As for your pictures of the church, it was strange; one day its not the flickr link and a week or two its there. Well at least that is resolved. This is one image which is licensed as Attribution-ShareAlike Creative Commons: File:Hammered Gold Headdress Colombia Yotoco Calima 1st-7th century CE.jpg (look at the flickr license) Regards, --Leoboudv (talk) 20:12, 23 March 2009 (UTC)
- Sure, you're welcome. You meet all kinds of people on flickr. 50% don't bother to respond to me but the other 50% are willing to respond and change the license to 1 of the 2 options I mentioned above. This person--Hans--is an Admin on flickr and is willing to license his many images as 'Attribution Creative Commons' if you show him where you intend to use them on Wikipedia. See this Once he changes the flickr license of a particular image and it is approved on Commons, I always flickrmail him back, show him that it is used in Article X or Y or both of Wikipedia, and then thank him for his help. People appreciate a thank you note. I stopped working with Hans after Dec. 2008 (because I am in poor health today) but I thanked him for all his help before I left. Hans' response was: "it was a pleasure.!" Well I have to go now. Regards, --Leoboudv (talk) 21:55, 23 March 2009 (UTC)
- Congratulations on your success. Just remember my comment on the license. The image cannot be any form of Creative Commons. It has to be either 'Attribution Creative Commons' or 'Attribution-ShareAlike Creative Commons.' This user (M. Harrsch) will license her images on the second license only--if you ask her: [4] (Its better than nothing, I suppose) Cheers, --Leoboudv (talk) 19:23, 24 March 2009 (UTC)
- Comment If there is any photo you may need from Ms Harrsch's flickr account, you should flickrmail her. She has a Commons account and she did place these 102 images on Commons here So, she is open to Wikipedia. Goodbye Doug --Leoboudv (talk) 06:18, 25 March 2009 (UTC)

Flickr images upload for a User
I am looking for a method where the database list ONLY my Flickr uploaded images. I have hundreds of images uploaded, however I want to see ONLY a list of Flickr images that I have uploaded, not all my images. In other words a filter that shows ONLY the Flickr images from the hundreds of other images I have uploaded. This list of Flickr ONLY images will be a couple of dozen. All my images are over a couple of thousand. I want a listing of ONLY Flickr images, the list of a couple of dozen pictures. Thanks. --Doug Coldwell (talk) 23:17, 23 March 2009 (UTC)
- There's not an easy way to do it with Commons' search functionality. Your best is this Google search. You could also write something against the Mediawiki API to do it pretty easily. Dcoetzee (talk) 23:45, 23 March 2009 (UTC)
- Much easyer for Excel users: copy your upload log to a simple txt file, replace
- "File: with [tab][[:File:
- .jpg" with .jpg]][tab]
- flickr with [tab]flickr[tab]
- Copy the whole thing to Excel, you will have the Filename in the second column and you can autofilter for flickr in the 4th column, except png files, you can filter for flickr in the 3rd column. I copied the list here: User:Doug Coldwell/Flickr. this is only complete given that you wrote the word Flickr somewhere in the upload text.
- --Martin H. (talk) 03:23, 24 March 2009 (UTC)
- Even easier: enable the Logs filter gadget in your preferences. Then go to your log page, enter "Flickr" in the "Regex string" box at the top, and click the "filter" button. Voilà.

I keep mine in Category:Flickr files uploaded by User:Richard001 (I'm the second to do this, after Kahuroa). This is useful to me because I don't actually upload them myself (that's too slow), thus I would have difficulty finding them otherwise. The problem is it's easy to forget to add the category, even after 300 uploads... Richard001 (talk) 09:49, 24 March 2009 (UTC)

Question on Bernard Courtois picture
Hi, my name is Guy and I m French. We 're having big discussions on the possible portrait of Bernard Courtois. If it's really him, this would make this portrait the second oldest in the history of photography. Would you be able to know if the source you've used is sure or not ? Thank's in advance for your help. --Guy Courtois (talk) 19:04, 20 April 2009 (UTC)
- No, I am not sure on the photograph. Just going by the web site that shows his picture and birth and death date of 1777 - 1838. --Doug Coldwell (talk) 20:20, 21 April 2009 (UTC)
- Thank's for your answer. I suggest you leave it here, since now, many articles are using this picture. But may be, you should add to the commet of the picture a big WARNONG that the original source is not sure... Thank's again for your help. --Guy Courtois (talk) 12:19, 25 April 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading File:Aerial_View_-_1961.jpg. I notice that the file page either doesn't contain enough information about the license or it contains contradictory information about the license, so the copyright status is unclear.
If you created this file yourself, then you must provide a valid copyright tag. For example, you can tag it with {{self|GFDL|cc-by-sa-all}} to release it under the multi-license GFDL plus Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike All-version license or you can tag it with {{PD-self}} to release it into the public domain. (See Commons:Copyright tags for the full list of license tags that you can use.) If you did not create the file yourself or if it is a derivative of another work that is possibly subject to copyright protection, then you must specify where you found it (e.g. usually a link to the web page where you got it), you must provide proof that it has a license that is acceptable for Commons (e.g. usually a link to the terms of use for content from that page), and you must add an appropriate license tag. If you did not create the file yourself and the specific source and license information is not available on the web, you must obtain permission through the VRT system and follow the procedure described there. Note that any unsourced or improperly licensed files will be deleted one week after they have been marked as lacking proper information, as described in criteria for deletion. If you have uploaded other files, please confirm that you have provided the proper information for those files, too.

- The book I have on my desk says "Translated by C.H. Clark, Ph.D." J. & J. Harper Edition 1969 Library of Congress Card Number 79-81867. The Common's image is a copy of page 97 of the Nohl book. It says on the image "Historiae anatomicae" by Thomas Bartolin, "Copenhagen 1661" which I assume is the publishing place and date. Nohl, Johannes, The Black Death: A Chronicle of the Plague, J. & J.

I have done a fair amount of research on historical fire engines and I noticed an image you added to Commons from the Fort Williams Historical Park titled Fire engine 19th century.JPG.

Thanks for uploading File:Alston coat-of-arms in color.jpg. I notice that the file page either doesn't contain enough information about the license or it contains contradictory information about the license, so the copyright status is unclear.

At Commons:Deletion requests/File:The Guardians Proctor.jpg you asked about the difference between The Guardians Proctor image and File:USA-George Mason Memorial0.jpg. There is no difference because both are copyright violations under US freedom of panorama law. Modern US 3D sculptures/statues/monuments are copyright of the creator/designer, unless the copyright was specifically released with the contract, so while the photos may be released under a free licence by the photographer, becuase their images are derivative works, the creator's permission is also required. Getting this additioanl permission can be quite difficult even if you contact the creator/designer. Good luck. Ww2censor (talk) 15:20, 26 August 2014 (UTC)

This image is really bad, in fact virtually useless. Is there any way you can take one that is on focus or get someone to lend you a camera that can do good closeups? Ww2censor ([[User talk:Ww2censor|int:Talkpagelinktext]]) 10:43, 13 September 2015 (UTC)
