License tagging for Image:Duffus village.JPG
Thanks for uploading Image:Duffus village.JPG. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:
 * Image use policy
 * Image copyright tags

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Media copyright questions. 09:08, 3 August 2007 (UTC)

Portran
I saw your draft article and enjoyed the memory of using this language in my high school computing club. The draft has a good amount of detail in it, but it will need some sources, and I have not been able to find anything suitable online. Neil James wrote PORTRAN: University of Otago student programming system and there are a couple of copies in the University of Otago Hocken Library, but I don't have access to that. There was also a Portran newsletter. Hocken appears to have Vol 2 No 4 of that. To publish the draft you will also need to show some degree of notability (see WP:GNG), and I suspect this may be an impossible hurdle. Perhaps there is mention of it in the New Zealand School Journal or similar. If you cannot bring the draft up to Wikipedia standards, I hope you can find a home for it elsewhere on the web.- gadfium 22:05, 12 May 2022 (UTC)
 * One way to get this onto Wikipedia might be to include it in Databank Systems Limited. You'll still need to have sources, but the notability burden won't be as great.- gadfium 22:08, 12 May 2022 (UTC)
