Hendrik Timmer (tennis)
[edit]- ... that Olympic Bronze medalist and Wimbledon Quarterfinalist Dutch champion Hendrik Timmer coached Princess Juliana of the Netherlands in tennis?
5x expanded by Lajbi (talk). Self nominated at 14:29, 13 March 2013 (UTC).
I'd like to see a ref for the date of death, but otherwise the text looks OK. Can't access the hook reference, but will take it on faith (the cited article certainly exists, but behind a paywall). Good length, 5x expansion between March 8 and March 13. The picture needs to be public domain in the United States though. Currently just has a PD EU tag. Smurrayinchester 21:25, 13 March 2013 (UTC)
- Most of the obituary refs has his DoD but most notable the daviscup.com link in the external links. I've spread it through the lines of the infobox in question. Lajbi Holla @ me • CP 21:34, 13 March 2013 (UTC)
- Thanks, it looks good. Annoyingly, I don't think that photo is public domain - according to Commons:Hirtle chart, a work published outside the US has to have been public domain in 1996 in its home country, and the photo wouldn't have been PD until ~2000. Sorry about that. Smurrayinchester 18:54, 15 March 2013 (UTC)
- I'm not into copyrights that much. Does a photo needs to be PD in the US to be featured in Wikipedia? Wikipedia is not necessarily an American site. There are plenty of pictures e.g. from www.europeana.eu and these pics are used widely here. Just asking I'm not sure about the current policy. Lajbi Holla @ me • CP 15:29, 17 March 2013 (UTC)
That image rule only applies for having the image as part of the hook. Otherwise, it's fine as part of the article under fair use for the Hendrik Timmer article (and only the Hendrick Timmer article). Since Smurrayinchester's concerns were solely about the image, I will AGF in passing this hook. OCNative (talk) 22:08, 17 March 2013 (UTC)
