This media file has been nominated for deletion since 28 September 2024. To discuss it, please visit the nomination page.
Do not remove this tag until the deletion nomination is closed. Reason for the nomination: This file is sourced to a National Weather Service website.
Such sites host a mixture of content created by the US federal government (public domain) and content created by businesses and private individuals (a wide variety of free and unfree licenses). We rely on the captions they were published with to tell us where the photo originated. Photos like these of the aftermath of severe weather events might be taken by NWS damage surveys, but in many cases, were taken by County Emergency Management teams, County Sheriffs, and other county- or state-level agencies. Therefore, we simply can't assume the origin of photos like these. Unfortunately, this image is no longer published by the NWS, and the only source information we have is the bare URL itself. We no longer have access to its copyright and licensing information. I reached out the to NWS office that published this photo (Little Rock). They were unable to provide me with any further information about it, citing changes in their web hosting arrangements over the years and that "there was just way too much information to transfer each time". I have forwarded this response to the VRT (ticket:2024092810001681). Because we cannot verify that it is (or was ever) available under a free license, we must delete as a precaution unless the precise creator and evidence of permission can be found. If it is truly an orphan image, it will enter the public domain 120 years after they were taken, in 2133. FWIW, A very similar image, obviously taken within a shot time of this one, was published without attribution by the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette at the time: https://www.arkansasonline.com/news/2012/dec/20/strong-storms-down-trees-spawn-possible-tornado/
