Contradict[edit]

The last paragraph contradicts what is stated in the Led Zeppelin article:
Rimmer's most famous work, though not normally associated with him, is Evening: Fall of Day. This paint-on-canvas portrays Apollo rising from the earth during a sunset, and a modified version was used by Swan Song Records, the recording label founded by Led Zeppelin, in their label art. It is often mistaken to be a picture of Icarus, Lucifer, Satan, or Daedelus. Rimmer meant the figure to be Lucifer (documented); Led Zeppelin altered the image and changed the meaning.

Help desk request and tagging possible copyvio and non-free material[edit]

@The Theosophist: The text is labelled as containing Public Domain text (at the bottom), most parts are based on Encyclopaedia Brittanica (EB section on William Rimmer). Obviously it would be better to rephrase the whole article in own words and with more sources (it has only 3 original sentences), but why do you think, the Wiki text is a copyvio? (the match with the family history site is a false positive based on this evidence) The non-free tag seems invalid as well, the content is PD and both images are also PD due to age, although their image information could be a bit more detailed. Removing the tags for now, if necessary please re-insert them and clarify. GermanJoe (talk) 14:43, 24 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
