Can we get more that one reference that is not self-published?

If he is the editor of a magazine that publishes his books, that might that count as vanity publishing? 99.207.10.246 (talk) 15:55, 9 November 2011 (UTC)KandyRain[reply]

He is not the owner of the magazine or the press, and not even the founding editor. (The magazine has been publishing monthly since 1949.) Thus, calling this "vanity publishing" seems a bit of a stretch, if you ask me.Desertpapa (talk) 19:58, 21 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

photo lost down the memory hole

It appears to me that the visibility of the photo, File:John Bellamy Foster.png, (which I took myself and gave to the public domain) disappeared when revisor "Lucy e.g.p." made changes June 24, 2012, and that "CommonsDelinker", removed the broken image link on July 17, 2012. The result: no more photo, a poorer record, and a more misleading history which subverts the integrity of the Wikipedia. Restoring the photo to this article is beyond my patience. Robert B.
