- Many thanks for this review Aoidh. Please can you confirm that the picture is reviewed as well? I would like to go in with the picture as a part of the hook even if it means waiting for a few days. Thanks again. Ktin (talk) 06:01, 28 August 2022 (UTC)
  - @Ktin: I am so sorry I was looking at this template page via the editor and didn't even notice there was an image attached. I know the image has a PD-India tag on it, but if the image is from 1996 then it's not 60 years old, so I'm not sure how the PD-India tag is valid? I do see it has an unreviewed GODL license on it, but I don't know if that needs to be reviewed to be "properly licensed" per WP:DYKIMG. Let me find out before I comment further, because I honestly do not know the answer at this time. Maybe I'm missing something though, could you explain how the PD-India tag is valid? @Maile66 and Casliber: could you please advise? I think this is the first image I've reviewed and I don't know the correct way to handle this one. - Aoidh (talk) 06:19, 28 August 2022 (UTC)
    - @Aoidh: Not an issue at all. While this was not my upload -- my read of this one is that given the release is from the Indian Government's Publications Division this falls under GODL i.e. Government Open Data License for open use. Ktin (talk) 06:45, 28 August 2022 (UTC)
    - I have the same impression – it appears to be properly sourced to Freedom Fighters Remember, which is a publication of the Indian government. It isn't PD-India, I've removed that tag. theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (she/they) 17:14, 31 August 2022 (UTC)
      - @Theleekycauldron: Sorry for being overly cautious here, but is that tag "has not yet been reviewed by an administrator or reviewer to confirm that the above license is valid" attached to the GODL license in the Commons file an issue? If not it seems good to go, but I didn't know if the unreviewed status (which I've never seen before) prevents it from being considered "properly licensed" per WP:DYKIMG. - Aoidh (talk) 17:42, 31 August 2022 (UTC)
        @Aoidh: I think a DYK review is good enough for DYK purposes – extra confirmation would be nice, but I don't think it's necessary. theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (she/they) 17:47, 31 August 2022 (UTC)
        That works for me, thanks. Image and hook are both good to go. - Aoidh (talk) 17:49, 31 August 2022 (UTC)
