RfC: Third-party images published by the National Weather Service
[edit]I've now reviewed 1,000 images uploaded under the rationales expressed in the {{PD-NWS}} template and requested deletion of several.
The arguments for deletion, and to keep, are now following repetitive, predictable patterns and it would greatly help all involved if we could centralise discussion and obtain some wider community input.
Therefore, I have opened an RfC to gather opinions. Apologies in advance: it's long and detailed, but is frankly nothing compared to the words and time expended by all parties up to this point. Probably the most crucial issue revolves around how we interpret a general disclaimer published at weather.gov (Q.1 in the RfC).
Your advice is greatly appreciated! --Rlandmann (talk) 12:11, 14 September 2024 (UTC)
Verification with photographers
[edit]Thanks for making contact with Freddy -- I had messaged him a couple of weeks back but didn't get a reply yet. I was already in contact with Alex though.
I added your comments to these pages: A25 and A26 where I'm tracking direct feedback from photographers whose images we're hosting on the (mistaken) impression they were released into the public domain.
Finally, if you're not already aware of it, this is the big-picture overview of where reviews are up to right now. --Rlandmann (talk) 16:06, 16 September 2024 (UTC)
