 * File:Marines_at_Prayer_by_Alex_Raymond.jpg ([ history] · [ last edit]) from - Original image is US Government, our image was copied from another website whose owner (Lewis) scanned and edited the original and claims copyright on the resulting image file.  Image file was edited to remove the copyright tag added by Lewis on upload, though the image description credits him as source.  Not sure if the Bridgeman v Corel ruling applies, I think so, but seeking copyright expert review.  Georgewilliamherbert (talk) 03:52, 21 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Hi. This isn't the place to come for expert image review. :) Images are handled at WP:PUI. This page is for text concerns, and as the primary admin who hangs out here, I know that I can't do your question justice. You might also ask at WP:MCQ. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 17:24, 21 April 2009 (UTC)
 * So as not to leave it unexamined, I've gone ahead and listed this at WP:MCQ myself. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 16:18, 29 April 2009 (UTC)

 * Tenatively marking this one resolved; I'm requesting followup. I think I've gotten it all, but I can't help wondering what I'm missing. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 16:32, 29 April 2009 (UTC)

 * I haven't found an explicit indication that this article is licensed under GFDL. It has been for some years a GFDL violation even if it is, as there's no attribution. But that question will need to be cleared up before this text can be used. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 20:41, 21 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Lacking clarification of GFDL (this article was first listed Copyright problems/2009 April 13; I relisted here to allow more time), I have rewritten the article. It seems a notable concept. However, the text we had was not necessarily appropriate to Wikipedia anyway. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 14:58, 30 April 2009 (UTC)
