More licensing issues
[edit]Hi Iamozy... concerning File:Forrest Shreve.jpg, what indication can you give that the photographer died over 80 years ago? The book you used as a source was published in 1955, and the Forrest Shreve apparently died in 1950. Storkk (talk) 15:48, 28 March 2014 (UTC)
- The author didn't die 80 years ago, but the image is in the US Public Domain. I could not find another way to add the Public Domain tag because I don't know the reason why it is in the public domain, only that the work was made available with the specification "Copyright: Public Domain, Google-digitized." --Iamozy (talk) 16:15, 28 March 2014 (UTC)
- Hi Iamozy, I think you may have been duped by an incorrect license on Google books. If I nominate this for DR, please don't be offended! Cheers, Storkk (talk) 19:39, 28 March 2014 (UTC)

Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG)
[edit]In other languages (translate this)

Thank you for uploading some images!
Did you know that Wikimedia Commons recommends the SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) format for certain types of images? Scalable Vector Graphics are designed to look appropriate at any scale, and SVG images are easier to modify and translate, helping Wikimedia to distribute knowledge to all of the world. A lot of modern programs support SVG export. If you encountered problems or have questions, don't hesitate to ask me, a member of the Graphic Lab, or the Graphics village pump. Uploading images in SVG format isn't mandatory, but it would help. (To avoid any misunderstandings, please don't just put raster images into an SVG container as embedded raster.) Thanks, and happy editing!
