- This image was kept as being of use for potential projects, such as for documenting the use of firearms by minors in the 50ies:

Keep - potentially useful. — Mike.lifeguard | @en.wb 20:30, 13 October 2008 (UTC)
Kept per Mike.lifeguard as this image is properly described and categorized, making a use within the Wikimedia projects not unlikely, e.g. for documenting the use of firearms by minors in the 50ies. --AFBorchert (talk) 11:25, 21 December 2008 (UTC)

Image Deletions

Return
[edit]I'm surprised I've been away as a regular here for around seven years, was pointed back here and in the midst of deleting some out-of-date notices, decided to return as an active contributor. I look forward to communicating with all of you in the coming months. Will Dockery (talk) 21:29, 25 October 2014 (UTC)

Names: Dockery, Will, 1958- Conley, Henry, 1960- The best way to copyright poetry and songs is as collections, for example...
The way I did it was I mailed two copies of the CD, which In think was their instruction, which are filed at the Library of Congress.
This way, the entire package is covered, from the songs, lyrics, cover art. Again, I think the Copyright Office folks suggest thisn is the best way, rather than paying for each song individually.
