"Honest Tom"
Hi, Dashwood, Yamara here. I'm the one who got the "Honest Tom" Martin article started from a link you left. My motivation at the time was building references for the Gough Map article, which I also started.

Here's the thing. The Wikimedia Foundation is a stickler for copyright. I have no doubt the engraving is public domain, but you need to be able to document it as best you can. Check out a recent image I uploaded at Wikimedia Commons. Note the information under "Summary" and "Licensing". You'll need at least to state as much as I do there to have the image avoid deletion. Ideally, you could sign up an account at Wikimedia Commons, upload it there with all its tags, and then it will be readily available to Wikipedia.

Or, you can send me the info on my talk page, and I'll do it. We'll need most of the following; cite the book, the illustrator, and any dates of publication of the image:

Description=

Source=

Date=

Looking forward to keeping "Honest Tom"'s picture on his article.

Cheers,
