Rotman
I just read the article you submitted on Walter Rotman. Excellent job. I've polished it up a bit, but you got it almost exactly right. I'm very impressed.

Keep up the good work, eh? DS (talk) 14:00, 30 August 2011 (UTC)


 * On the other hand, the photo is a problem. You photographed -- made a copy of -- a pre-existing photograph. The copyright to the image in your photograph is therefore subsumed into the copyright to the first photograph. That's what "copyright" basically means - the right to control the copying. You don't own the copyright to that photo, and therefore you can't release it. Depending on circumstances, it might be out of copyright anyway, but I wouldn't bet on that.

 * Hey, thanks for your input. Yes you're right, I'm a new wikipedia user and wasn't sure about some of the details of copyright. I thought perhaps a variation of the "freedom of panorama" law could apply here since the picture is publicly displayed, but I was wrong. I'm going to try adding a "db-filecopyvio" tag, is that enough to get it deleted? Thanks for the help. (Dannecrot (talk) 18:34, 30 August 2011 (UTC))
 * Freedom of panorama does not apply to close-up photographs of other photographs. As for getting it deleted - eh, I'm an administrator, I'll handle it myself. DS (talk) 20:48, 30 August 2011 (UTC)
