Talk:Harlan Page Davidson/GA1

[edit]

I removed all the images from the article due to unclear copyright status. None of the dates specify whether it was the publication or creation date, nor do the stated sources (i.e. "Northwestern Military Academy publication", "Handout brochure") provide enough information for another editor to be able to verify that the images are freely licensed in the United States. The field for source publication should give as much information as possible, including author, date, title, and a page number or url. Etriusus Thanks for reviewing but it's also necessary to check image copyrights. If you're ever unsure about a licensing issue, I can help. (t · c) buidhe 00:26, 13 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

buidhe Thank you for catching that error on my part. I will reach out to the photo uploader (who is also the nominator) and see if we can fix those images. Just a heads up, now that I have looked over it fully, the same error was made on Royal Page Davidson, another article I reviewed. I will work to resolve this and get the pictures back up if possible. I have very sorry about that mistake. Going forward, I will try to not make it again.

No problem, it's an easy thing to miss. As I said, I'm happy to help with any image licensing questions. (t · c) buidhe 01:27, 13 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Copyright contributor investigation and Good article reassessment

[edit]

This article is part of Wikipedia:Contributor copyright investigations/20210315 and the Good article (GA) drive to reassess and potentially delist over 200 GAs that might contain copyright and other problems. An AN discussion closed with consensus to delist this group of articles en masse, unless a reviewer opens an independent review and can vouch for/verify content of all sources. Please review Wikipedia:Good article reassessment/February 2023 for further information about the GA status of this article, the timeline and process for delisting, and suggestions for improvements. Questions or comments can be made at the project talk page. MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 09:36, 9 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
