Copyright problems with Image:Tri Nations Trophy.jpg[edit]

About the Copyright Via I believe it is fair use under the two points on the press kit template

to illustrate the work or product in question; - the trophy is the product/work
in the absence of free images that could serve such a purpose - not any person can just walk on to a rugby field and take a photo of a trophy.

The source is also stated aswell. --Hamedog^Talk|@ 12:32, 9 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not so sure, have a look at Wikipedia:Publicity_photos and read the terms and conditions on the website you quote as the source. Also the image you link to is marked as copyright Simon Baker/Pro Sport Photos. OoberMick 13:20, 9 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I emailed the owner and he said I have permission to post it on wikipedia as long as the source is stated. I.E I mention he is the photographer

To be honest I'm not sure that's enough, but you should add {{Template:Withpermission}} to the image anyway. You see the problem with them giving permission to use on wikipedia is that it only covers wikipedia and not mirrors or other uses of the infomation that would be allowed under the GFDL. If you could get them to agree with Wikipedia:Boilerplate_request_for_permission then that would be cool, but if not then I'm honestly not sure. -- OoberMick 12:05, 10 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Gia Milinovich[edit]

You undid a section that was sourced from the public storify blog of Gia Milinovich. If you are looking to make a more balanced version that is fine but deleting something a public figure has posted because you don't like it really isn't honest. This was Milinovich's own experience and political stance. No one is saying she is a bad person. 24.24.142.155 (talk) 01:50, 31 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Following up from the comments on my own talk page: Unless this specific blog entry has received non-trivial coverage from reliable third party sources, the addition of this particular section appears to be selectively giving WP:UNDUE weight to a singular post. We have a high standard for coverage of WP:BLP subjects and should avoid original research wherever possible. Regards, Yamaguchi先生 17:55, 3 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
