Elijah edit

Yes. I was going over some material in the Anchor Bible on the Naboth incident and the commentary delt with the importance of a fast having been proclaimed. I rechecked KJV, NIV, and RSV and found fast. All I can say is sorry for the incorrect information. I was trying to get a great deal of information down in one setting. Anyway--fast is correct. Feast is incorrect. ThomasHartman 22:51, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

Suspenders

Please look at Image:Taxwoman3.jpg, which at one point was in the Suspenders article. Note how two of us are wearing stockings held up by (British) suspenders, not garters. Where is that meaning of suspenders explained now?--Taxwoman 20:04, 6 April 2007 (UTC)

In British English, suspenders are not the same as garters!--Taxwoman 20:20, 6 April 2007 (UTC)

Fine, as long as the British meanings of suspenders and garters are explained somewhere and adequately cross-referenced.--Taxwoman 20:53, 6 April 2007 (UTC)

License tagging for Image:Jean Keane.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Jean Keane.jpg. Misplaced Pages gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Misplaced Pages, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

Hey Wrad, good job on finding the Jean Keene photo! I had been unable to find one on Flickr when I looked following your request in the talk page for WikiProject Alaska.

Unfortunately, I'm not sure about the licensing for the photo you found. From the link you posted about image licensing, I read that you can direct link to another website, but in terms of actually uploading to a website, it says, "You can post a thumbnail of any public photo or gallery photo available on Webshots" but that's a thumbnail, not the full sized photo -- & even then it's ambiguous whether they mean posting that thumbnail in just another Webshots member page, or on a completely separate (non-Webshots) website.

According to this page at Webshots, "Webshots has purchased the rights to use these images within the Webshots program. We are not authorized to allow them to be used elsewhere. If you would like to use any of the images, you will need to contact the photographer or company. There is a link or name under most of the images on our website."

I would recommend emailing the photographer directly & asking her permission to use the photo.

Thanks for the comment in my user talk. I answered it there too.

Very glad you started this article! She proves to be a very interesting person.--Yksin 05:28, 8 April 2007 (UTC)
