Premier League Snooker 2011/2012
In the page titled: "Snooker season 2011/2012", it shows the timetable for the upcoming snooker events. The page says the Premier league will start on 08/18 and end on the 11/27. I was wondering if you could tell me if any broadcast television station pans to televise it, and would the broadcasts be live?

 * My first thought was Eurosport, who do televise snooker tournaments, but it appears they only do the major ones around the world. However, it wouldn't surprise me to see Premier League Snooker turn up on Eurosport 2. I also looked at ESPN but couldn't find snooker on their list of sports. --TammyMoet (talk) 19:18, 12 May 2011 (UTC)

CTV and Global TV archives
By any chance does CTV and Global TV have their own website which contains video archives from the past like CBC does? I want to see if their view is different or the same? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.95.104.16 (talk) 17:09, 12 May 2011 (UTC)


 * CTV has a video site but it's mostly for current news clips (and other shows). Global has a similar site. Adam Bishop (talk) 08:05, 13 May 2011 (UTC)

Facebook Artist Page Photographs
Dear Editors,

If I get a personal image from the artist's public "facebook artist page," would that be an infringement of the copyright policy?

Thank You. (Csunstudent123 (talk) 23:19, 12 May 2011 (UTC))
 * most likely yes. The owner of the copyright on the photo does not automatically relinquish the copyright on it just because they publish it to Facebook.  The only way you can be sure that an photograph you upload to Wikipedia is free from copyright problems is if you pushed the button on the camera yourself.  All other photographs may be ok to use in some instances, but the rules for doing so are convoluted and difficult for new users to navigate, so unless you are sure, assume you cannot use it at Wikipedia until you are sure you fully understand all of the parts of Wikipedia's image use policy.  -- Jayron  32  23:36, 12 May 2011 (UTC)
