 * Image:Great-neck-hs.jpg ([ history] · [ last edit]) from.
 * The image date provided (1923) appears falsified as well. The school was not built until 1926 and it does not qualify it for Public Domain.--DueAmici (talk) 06:29, 6 June 2008 (UTC)
 * The website also contains text referenced by the user 5 days prior to uploading the image (website wiki article).--85.219.9.3 --DueAmici (talk) 21:59, 6 June 2008 (UTC)


 * Image:Map Canada political-geo.png This map is copyrighted by the Canadian government, and a now-inactive editor E Pluribus Anthony made very slight cosmetic changes. This Wikipedia image is a derivative work, thus violating Wikipedia rules. Here is the original version of the image with copyright notice:  Note that whereas US government documents are public domain, that is not true of the documents of the Canadian government. The Canadian government treats all of its publications, images, etc., as copyrighted like any other publisher. Perhaps the US government has a map of Canada which could be used without copyright problems? I found this map on the US Department of State website, although the level of detail is disappointing:  Canadian2006 (talk) 22:48, 6 June 2008 (UTC)
