License tagging for File:US144373 Izanah Walker patent.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:US144373 Izanah Walker patent.jpg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information.

To add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia. For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 20:30, 2 July 2023 (UTC)

File source problem with File:US144373 Izanah Walker patent.jpg
Thank you for uploading File:US144373 Izanah Walker patent.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. Please add this information by editing the image description page.

If the necessary information is not added within the next seven days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

Please refer to the image use policy to learn what images you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. Please also check any other files you have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a list of your uploads. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. — Ирука13 02:46, 3 July 2023 (UTC)

 * Hi Lubar, I've accepted this article, but I had to remove part of it because the URL to the source was not working and I could not quickly find the correct URL. If you could please fix that, you can add the information back to the article. Could you also please provide the headline and byline in the footnote for the article on timesmachine? Readers without a subscription are unable to see it. -- asilvering (talk) 17:59, 1 November 2023 (UTC)
