STS-135 patch
Hi, and welcome to Wikipedia. I have nominated the STS-135 patch for deletion. I nominated it for deletion because it has not been officially released by NASA. Also CollectSpace does not like other people using there stuff. You probably already know this as you more then likely received an email from him (have made the same mistake in the past). In the future, if you upload something like a patch or photo to a space article, make sure it comes directly from the NASA website. That way you and everyone else knows that it can be used. If you have any questions just post them here and i will respond when I get a chance. Once again welcome and hope to see you around!-- Navy Blue84  15:48, 24 January 2011 (UTC)


 * "I noticed that my upload of the STS-135 patch was removed from the article. Was it because of the file name, or I didn't have a source for the image? I'm not clear on the editor's note and the image being deleted. (How would I get or show permission; it's already from a United States Government agency. And my image has already been replaced by another with permission.) If there's permission, I rendered and cropped version the patch; if that's useful; for the article. I noticed all other mission patches went though the same process." Sent by email


 * The original reason I tagged the patch for deletion was because of the source issue. CollectSpace does not like it when others use their images without permission. Since Florida Today has used it, I am assuming that some sort of permission has been given for it to be used. Usually NASA releases the patch officially, not long after its up on CollectSpace. While you are right its from a U.S. government agency, it has/had not been released officially by them. The work you did was great, it was all in the sourcing of the patch. I still have questions about the source of it and whether or not it can be used. But I am too busy in real life to try and deal with it. P.S. I would prefer to keep the conversation on here, I get enough email clogging my inbox.-- Navy Blue84  00:21, 25 January 2011 (UTC)
