[edit]

Per this, despite the FLC being finished I think this still needs an image review. The first set were mentioned at FLC and still have two outstanding concerns. Rambo's Revenge (talk) 12:32, 2 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Part I, re-reviewed post FLC
Hmph. And TGo2002 hasn't edited since 2005. Would the next step be to email the site owner and ask him if he uploaded the pictures? Rufous-crowned Sparrow (talk) 00:45, 7 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, I think that would be a good move. Rambo's Revenge (talk) 22:29, 7 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • File:Peregrine falcon x.jpg - "for personal use", Wikipedia requires commercial use. Also, would "Pennsylvania Game Commission" really be considered as "United States Federal Government"?
I know nothing of copyright laws, so your call. Rufous-crowned Sparrow (talk) 00:45, 7 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
The PipingPlover file was deleted because the Nebraska Game and Parks Commission wasn't federal government. I think Pennsylvania Game Commission would be the same and would suggest removing this image. Rambo's Revenge (talk) 22:29, 7 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Part II

I will continue this soon. If possible it would be greatly appreciated if you could gather information on the others as it would greatly speed up the process, the sort of things that need doing are source, author, etc. If you look at my edits to the images above it should give you an idea.

Part III

That's it. There are three issues in total. The last will most likely be deleted. The other two are potential copyvios so I suggest contacting the relevent person/removing the image. Best wishes, Rambo's Revenge (talk) 09:50, 3 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
