Talk:William, Prince of Wales

Semi-protected edit request on 8 June 2024
Please remove the category Category:Heirs apparent as the more specific subcategories of Category:Dukes of Cornwall and Category:Princes of Wales are already listed and Wikipedia:Categorization states “Each categorized page should be placed in all of the most specific categories to which it logically belongs. This means that if a page belongs to a subcategory of C (or a subcategory of a subcategory of C, and so on) then it is not normally placed directly into C.” 98.228.137.44 (talk) 20:53, 8 June 2024 (UTC)

New infobox image
I recently found a new image of the Prince of Wales on Commons which is of a high quality as it focuses on the Prince, despite the people in the background. It was uploaded on Commons by. I look forward to hearing from the community on whether it should remain or not. Pinging, ,. I believe these users can help us resolve the issue effectively. Regards.

 * Could you elaborate on where that licensing is coming from? It doesn't quite align with what's at the source site. (I'm assuming you're referring to Prince_of_Wales_in_Normandy_2024.jpg, please let me know if I've misunderstood). Nikkimaria (talk) 22:29, 15 June 2024 (UTC)
 * @Nikkimaria I have verified the image's licensing on Wikimedia Commons and confirmed that it is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution 2.0 Generic (CC BY 2.0) license. This allows for free use of the image with appropriate attribution. Looking forward to your response. Regards. MSincccc (talk) 03:08, 16 June 2024 (UTC)


 * Okay, but my question is, where is that licensing coming from? How did you confirm it? Nikkimaria (talk) 03:31, 16 June 2024 (UTC)
 * @Nikkimaria From the European Union website from which this image was initially retrieved. I have pinged who uploaded the file. Looking forward to your response. MSincccc (talk) 04:01, 16 June 2024 (UTC)


 * Sure, hopefully they can clarify - I'm not seeing that there atm. Nikkimaria (talk) 04:20, 16 June 2024 (UTC)

The close-up of William's face is an extract from a larger photograph of the D-Day commemorations, which was already given that free-licence tag. I merely copied the tag to the cropped version. Robin S. Taylor (talk) 09:39, 16 June 2024 (UTC)
 * I think what Nikkimaria is trying to figure out is how you came to use that specific license on the photo that has been uploaded to the Commons. Is it used by the source itself? Maybe they have clarified it somewhere on their website. Keivan.f  Talk 14:18, 16 June 2024 (UTC)
