[edit] License tagging for Image:Altman-akhmatova.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Altman-akhmatova.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.
For more information on using images, see the following pages:
This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 02:04, 6 October 2006 (UTC)
- Please see the Image talk. Thanks for the negotiating a great deal on the image (ordinary the image would go as PD-USSR which existence is very contraversial) but are you sure Mr. George Mitrevski is the heir of Nathan Altman? abakharev 01:11, 7 October 2006 (UTC)
The picture is posted on the internet http://www.auburn.edu/academic/liberal_arts/foreign/russian/art/altman-akhmatova.html
Under the picture it clearly indicates who the copyright owner of the picture is. I contacted him and he agreed. I don't see how else I could verify it. This is an university sight. I do not think that a university professor of a well known university would play games on a legal matter. The entire correspondence is posted at the image site, as a justification.

[edit] Re: American Comparative Literature Association
No problem at all. Although copying a paragraph may or may not be copyright, pure original content is better. In fact, I will recreate it just because it was not a promotion of any kind but instead a good faithed attempt of including new information in Wikipedia. -- ReyBrujo 01:49, 3 December 2006 (UTC)
