Better Picture?

I have a much, much better picture...extremely high resolution image of the front of the structure. How can I add it?--65.188.55.90 05:36, 26 October 2006 (UTC)

As long as you're certain it's free to use -- for instance, if you took it yourself -- see Wikipedia:Uploading images for a guide to uploading, and WP:XIMG for how to add it to the article. TCC (talk) (contribs) 22:49, 26 October 2006 (UTC)

Images Reversed?

When you look at the photograph of the "reconstructed facade of the ziggurat", it appears to be a mirror image of the graphic of "Reconstruction of Ur-Nammu's ziggurat". In the photograph, the steps against the wall lead off to the left. In the reconstruction, the steps lead off to the right. The photo of the US soldiers ascending the steps agrees with the photo of the reconstructed facade. So, is the graphic reversed by accident? --99.236.229.36 (talk) 21:22, 10 September 2011 (UTC)

About My Huge Revert (October 2, 2007)

A few minutes ago I reverted this article back to an older version dated September 23, 2007 (September 22, 2007 my time zone). here is my edit. I did this because the more than two dozen edits that happened since then included a whole lot of vandalism that hadn't been completely reverted, and one possible copyright violation (if there were any good edits, they must have either been clobbered by all the vandalism, or else there were vacumes to fix it).

The copyrighted material in question seems to have come from [1] (in particular see [2]). I wasn't able to determine what the copyright terms of the site were. So it's possible that we are allowed to use the material. At any rate, it looks like it might be a useful source (as long as it's unbiased and reliable). But just having a large chunk of it copied in by one editor (see [3]) sort of raises a red flag for me.

I don't think anyone else's good edits got caught up in this whirlwind of questionable edits. If they did, I apologise. -- Why Not A Duck 21:53, 2 October 2007 (UTC)

Bring back all that other information please, the article isnt as good without it. Terrasidius (talk) 23:41, 19 March 2008 (UTC)
