[edit] Airports generally

Hey, Couple of notes 1. Footnotes are fine 2. Can you confirm the source of Image:Santa Cruz Skypark Airport.jpg ? 3. Unfortunately, the page Santa Cruz Sky Park appears to be a copyright violation. Cheers. Burgundavia 06:26, Apr 18, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Santa Cruz Sky Park

My general feeling on this would be no, but I would email the webmaster of that page and ask them. They would probably be the most informative person. US copyright law, as I understand it (I am a Canadian), is that only US Federal gov stuff is PD, states and other sub-govs can have copyright. Burgundavia 08:44, Apr 20, 2005 (UTC)

• I got word back from the Santa Cruz Public Libraries and received the following:
  "You are welcome to use it for your article. Since the document was originally written by an outside consultant, I wasn't clear about the copyright issue, either. I checked with the City Clerk's office and they checked with the City Manager's office. The end result is that ... you have permission to use it. Regards, Donna J. Swedberg, Reference Supervisor, Central Branch Santa Cruz City-County Libraries"
  So, what is the proper steps to reinstate the page?
• You also asked about the photograph of the airport, it was provided to me by an a family member of the deceased photographer. I've let it be known to local pilots and historians that I'm looking for additional images of the former local airports so should have more available here soon. DanDawson 23:06, 20 Apr 2005 (UTC)
  • Hmm, I am being very picky here, but do they understand the terms that the permission in being granted under? IE, GFDL? Burgundavia 06:32, Apr 21, 2005 (UTC)
    • Yes, they've been shown Wikipedia, links provided to it's use, and encouraged said use to share information with anyone interested. Thanks for the education, I do look forward to getting past this copyvio notice since it's now clear permission was given and I look forward to producing more content on these and other airport pages. Do I remove the copyvio notice or wait until you or another proceedure is completed?
      • Ok, just do the editing on the temp page, and I will do the deletion and move the temp page over. Burgundavia 19:13, Apr 22, 2005 (UTC)
    • I has been dealt with. The page looks great, btw. Burgundavia 22:30, Apr 22, 2005 (UTC)
