Seems as if ICPR source isn't working, therefore added alternate source with thier public domain claim. Please help with the PD tag. Tony the Marine (talk) 23:28, 14 December 2009 (UTC)

I don't get it. Why are images from that side in the public domain? What makes you believe so? --Damiens.rf 23:53, 14 December 2009 (UTC)

• Humm..., this is interesting, If you go to and then go to the botton left side and click on "Derechos Compartidos", you will find the PD claim, however what is interesting is that both sites use "http://www.salonhogar.net/" as thier websites. Tony the Marine (talk) 01:22, 15 December 2009 (UTC)
  • Will do sometime today. Tony the Marine (talk) 19:57, 16 December 2009 (UTC)

I have a question because you are the pro. in this. What would be the proper copyright tag. for image uploaded from a site whose owner has stated is Public domain? Tony the Marine (talk) 03:28, 17 December 2009 (UTC)

I believe it's not actually PD. The website actually says: "Todas sus imágenes son obtenidas de varios proveedores de imágenes gratuitos que se encuentran en Internet para proyectos educativos no lucrativos". Do you agree with Google when it translates it to "All his images are obtained from several image providers who are free on the Internet for nonprofit educational projects."? That would mean that the images are not even free, since their use is not allowed for any purpose. --Damiens.rf 12:48, 17 December 2009 (UTC)

Hi there. I missed your original warning (my fault) about this pending deletion, but I believe I'm right to put it back. I got the photo from the City of Coquitlam itself. I wrote them and asked for the photo and specifically mentioned that it was for posting on Misplaced Pages, and they replied with the photo and the confirmation that I could post it there:

As requested, attached is a photo of Mayor Richard Stewart. Thanks for you interest keeping the City of Coquitlam's wikipedia page up to date.

I did say this in the photo description as well. If there's something I neglected to put in the photo info when I posted it, please let me know so I don't run into the same problem again. Thanks! Greg Salter (talk) 00:59, 16 December 2009 (UTC)

I'm afraid there's a problem. As the content of Misplaced Pages is supposed to be freely reusable by anyone for any purpose, we don't accept pictures (or any other material) released with a Misplaced Pages-only permission. WP:PERMISSIONS explains that. You should get the image released under a free license an get an otrs confirmation of this release. --Damiens.rf 12:10, 16 December 2009 (UTC)

This image is public domain in the US. It may be kept even if orphaned. The discussion should be closed as a speedy Keep due to a procedural error, I believe. -- Avi (talk) 19:20, 16 December 2009 (UTC)

Not good

Please don't make comments like this. It isn't helpful. Yes, other peoples' comments have been equally unhelpful. But I'm telling you this because experience tells me that you're more likely to be the subject of scrutiny. The large numbers of editors who think that Misplaced Pages is a free-as-in-beer encyclopedia before it's a free-as-in-speech one have worn down quite a few editors over the years. "Gegen der Dummheit kämpfen Götter selbst vergebens." Please don't be their next victim. I'll post a reply on the Colonels trial image at my talk page, probably tomorrow.

You're telling me this link is giving you a 404 error? I can see the article using that link. Morbidthoughts (talk) 06:15, 27 December 2009 (UTC)

My bad. I have a stupid Greasemonkey script that was bypassing the web archive. I apologize. --Damiens.rf 16:43, 27 December 2009 (UTC)
