File talk:LeonardGSiffleet.jpg

Eltrace (talk) 16:44, 1 September 2010 (UTC) The picture used has been both cropped and altered to change the location of Mr. Siffleet in the picture. The original picture can be found at http://cas.awm.gov.au/photograph/101099 and is in the public domain. Is there a reason why the original picture is not used? Should mention be made that the image has been altered? I'm pretty new to contributing to Wikipedia, am I making something out of nothing?

I too noticed that there are differences between the published photos of poor Sgt Siffleet. It is strange that the picture has been altered and i certainly think that it should be mentioned. Does anyone know the reason for this alteration? Regards, David J Johnson (talk) 13:10, 10 November 2010 (UTC)

Since posting the above, I have been in contact with the Australian authorities (AWM). They have confirmed to me that the execution pic they hold is the one on their site: photograph/101099 and not the version shown on the Wikipedia page. Does anyone know why this version was altered??

The AWM have asked me to report back to them if I find any answers.

Many thanks, David J Johnson (talk) 20:03, 2 December 2010 (UTC)
