- Only non-commercial reproduction is allowed! I don't know if we allow that under current policy, but if we do, it should at least be mentioned. - Andre Engels
- Removed, Andre Engels is right, see [1]. Far from being Public Domain. -guety 00:29, 25 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Unsure sources[edit]
Many of these sites don't explicitly state a license (or that the images are PD) nor that they are the copyrightholders.
- http://www.thebiblerevival.com/clipart.htm for instance just says "FREE Clip Art" without specifying free
- http://biphome.spray.se/anders.jensen/ just says "Feel free to use the pictures" or "Alla foton får lånas" ehich translates into all photos may be borrowed. If we are merging the two pages then this would be a good time to weed out all of the bad links. /Lokal_Profil 14:30, 29 April 2008 (UTC)
- thebiblerevival.com does actually state that the images are Public Domain on the subpages, a lot of the image seem to be missing sources though. I've sent an e-mail to /biphome.spray.se/anders.jensen/ asking about commersial and derivative use.
- Anyhow to add another http://www.rootgrafix.com/herbalnexus/photos.htm states "Unless otherwise noted, photos at this site have been taken by Diann. Diann's photos are public domain use them as you see fit for any non-commercial purposes." Which is a non-commersial license although the choice of words are unfortunate. /Lokal_Profil 15:08, 29 April 2008 (UTC)
- Yes, it's good to give a good cleanup before merging, thanks for the help. I agree with the removal of those links. Patrícia msg 18:48, 29 April 2008 (UTC)
Suggested addition[edit]
I'm a new flickr reviewer, but I've seen several images from Geograph appear uploaded as flickr images. All images on this site are published under CC-BY-SA-2.0, so I figure this should be added. -mattbuck (Talk) 11:10, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
