Talk:Adrian Morris (actor)

Request for photographs
Hi , Long time no speak! I hope you are keeping well? All is well here. Please may I impose once again on your kindness and expertise with uploading pix for use in articles? I have just published the present article in main space today and wondered whether there might be some photographs that are in the public domain, which we could use here? I have done a search online and found the five listed below, although I have no idea whether they could be uploaded for our purposes.
 * List of online photographs of Adrian Morris (actor) I found by simply googling his name:


 * 1) Adrian Morris (right) in The Fighting Marines (1935), with Grant Withers
 * 2) Adrian Morris (right) in Petrified Forest (1936), with Humphrey Bogart (centre) and Joe Sawyer (left)
 * 3) Adrian Morris in light suit (right) in Radio Patrol (1937), with Grant Withers in dark suit (centre)
 * 4) Adrian Morris as Deputy Johnson in The Return of the Cisco Kid (1939)
 * 5) Adrian Morris in The Grapes of Wrath (1940)

Thank you so much, as always, for looking into these and for your advice, whenever convenient to you; no rush. With kind regards for now; Patrick. ツ Pdebee.(talk)(become old-fashioned!) 18:02, 12 March 2020 (UTC)
 * Hey Patrick, I just did a quick search on ebay to see if anyone's selling vintage photos of Adrian and I found this one that might work. It's not a head shot but I couldn't find one of those. The reason I like to go the ebay route is because these are physical pics so you can see if there's a copyright statement on the pic whereas that would usually get cropped off when the pics are used on websites.  Any photo published before 1978 without a copyright notice is fair game to use. Robman94 (talk) 21:45, 12 March 2020 (UTC)
 * Hi again ,
 * Many thanks for your prompt reply. What a great idea to go to eBay, though of course costly, in this case. Since you didn’t comment on the online ones above, should I conclude that we can’t use any of these? If that were the case, then I’d be inclined to leave the article without pix if uploading them is going to be complicated. Please kindly let me know what you think and we’ll take it from there. However, thank you so much for your helpful assistance, as always.
 * With kind regards for now; Patrick. ツ Pdebee.(talk)(become old-fashioned!) 22:39, 12 March 2020 (UTC)
 * Lol, I didn't mean for you to BUY the physical photo, I just meant that you could copy it. I have done that here.  I did look at the ones you posted, but I couldn't tell what their copyright status was from those sites. Robman94 (talk) 00:11, 13 March 2020 (UTC)
 * Hi again ,
 * That is so funny!! Isn't bizarre the way our (old) brains work? As soon as I read the words eBay and physical pix in your post, my mind automatically switched to "purchase" mode!... I just didn't think about simply uploading images found there! In any case, many thanks once again for providing the photo that I will now insert into the infobox, since it's the only one we can use for now. As always, I remain most grateful to you, Rob!  With kind regards; Patrick. ツ Pdebee.(talk)(become old-fashioned!) 08:51, 13 March 2020 (UTC)
 * It might be a good idea to make a cropped version for the article. In case you don't know how to load an image that is derived from another, I have done it for you so you can see how it's done and have updated the image in the article. Robman94 (talk) 14:32, 13 March 2020 (UTC)
 * I just made a bold change to the article, so feel free to revert it if you don't like it. One thing that I've never liked on Wikipedia is that when you try to edit a heavily referenced article, it's often hard to read it because of all the ref syntax in the middle of the text.  Well, some time back I discovered how to put all the ref syntax in the References section itself, and since then it's the only format that I use when creating an article.  All you need to do is add the |refs= parm in the reflist statement.  I just did this to your article, I hope you like it. Robman94 (talk) 14:58, 13 March 2020 (UTC)


 * Thank you, you're a real star! First of all, that cropped image looks so much better and is perfect for our needs; thank you for taking this initiative, as I wouldn't have known how to do that. Secondly, you've greatly improved the article by relocating the citation templates down into the References section, a technique I hadn't seen before. So, I'm really glad I approached you for your expertise with uploading pix, because this article now looks better than I'd hoped it could be, and I've learned a new trick to boot; very many thanks for teaching it to me. Finally, it would be helpful to me if I could approach you again in future, particularly for some pix again, if I may? Thank you once more for all your wonderful assistance! With kind regards; Patrick. ツ Pdebee.(talk)(become old-fashioned!) 22:32, 13 March 2020 (UTC)
 * I'm glad you like that trick with the references Patrick, and of course you can reach out for my help anytime, always happy to oblige, and I learned a trick from you too, I hadn't seen the little RP template to refer to pages of an article before. Robman94 (talk) 14:40, 14 March 2020 (UTC)
 * Thank you ; that's great! What a team, eh?! Looking forward to next time, then. Keep well. With kind regards for now; Patrick. ツ Pdebee.(talk)(become old-fashioned!) 15:36, 14 March 2020 (UTC)
