Talk:Carl Eytel

Photographer?
This page: lists 16 photographs by Eytel. But I wonder in that 2 of them have dates which are not plausible. (Moreover, nothing I've read indicates that Eytel was doing photography.) I've written to the source of these photos pointing out the problem. We will see what is provided.--S. Rich (talk) 22:04, 21 December 2011 (UTC)
 * No response, so I'm dropping the question. Nothing anywhere else indicates Eytel was taking photos.--S. Rich (talk) 07:38, 2 August 2012 (UTC)

Illustrations
I would have expected much more illustrations in the article given that his work must be in the public domain by now. Also images of him would be PD if published before 1923. -- ELEKHHT 20:21, 17 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Thank you, I quite agree. My difficulty was in figuring out how to get the images from the digital libraries such as USC. The question of permissions to use the images they posses is too technical for me. The article also has links to the California State Library and Southwestern institute. Any help you can provide will be greatly appreciated.--S. Rich (talk) 20:30, 17 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Yes, it is a common problem with libraries and museums claiming copyright for scanned or photographed artwork. However, the official position taken by the Wikimedia Foundation is that "faithful reproductions of two-dimensional public domain works of art are public domain, and that claims to the contrary represent an assault on the very concept of a public domain" Images can be uploaded directly to Commons with the template PD-Art added to any such file for clarification. -- ELEKHHT 22:34, 17 November 2012 (UTC)

Find a Grave external link (b-r-D)
Per External_links/Perennial_websites "Sometimes, a [external] link is acceptable because of a specific, unique feature or information that is not available elsewhere, such as valuable images and location information of graves." In this case his gravestone with marker are provided and the location of burial is specified., This is unique information. Restoring link, but trimming the description posted in the template. – S.
