[edit] Unspecified source for Image:ApadanaEast.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:ApadanaEast.jpg. I notice the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this file yourself, then there needs to be a justification explaining why we have the right to use it on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you did not create the file yourself, then you need to specify where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the file also doesn't have a copyright tag, then one should be added. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, use a tag such as {{fairusein|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 00:13, 9 January 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. NMajdan•talk 00:13, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Hey

Sorry it took so long for me to reply. Just slipped my mind and all. And of course, I'm always up for making a new friend on Wikipedia :) ^demon^{[omg plz]} 07:12, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] The BM

Hi Muj – apologies for fiddling with the page without discussing what I was doing. The deletion of the images was an experiment with aesthetics and formatting– the cluster of images at the top, I felt, had to go, though the solution you came to (which kept the head of Amenhotep III) is probably better than my more drastic one. The Persepolis artefact, however, was out of place in a section on Egypt and the Sudan – perhaps a place will be found for it in the Near East section?

I would still quite like to have the Rosetta Stone illustated on the page, considering its immense popularity; most visitors to the page would, I imagine, expect it to be there. Is the view of the Egyptian sculpture gallery one of the "hugely important" ones of which you spoke? The article already has some very evocative pictures of the interior (the one of the Assyrian wall reliefs I like particularly – how were you able to find the galleries so empty?) and it would be good to match image with content by having the Museum's most famous Egyptian piece illustrate the list of highlights.

Thanks for cheering me on with the National Gallery page as well! There's still more I want to do with that article, though that's on the back burner for the time being. My ultimate aim is still for it to be promoted to FA, and I would think the BM's page will soon be eligible for Peer Review if work continues to the high standards (and dedication) you've shown so far.

Cheers again,

Wham! Bam! Thank you, Ham 22:14, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
