[edit] Copyright for Monty Hall image

Hi - I don't know if you've been watching the ruckus at talk:Monty Hall problem about the cartoon image you created (if so, I applaud you for refraining from commenting), but there is a problem with the copyright of the image. When you uploaded it, you identified it as Public Domain, but according to http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/help/HP030900871033.aspx there are definite restrictions on use of the clip art images found in the Office applications. I'm fairly certain this means that this particular image cannot be public domain, so it should be deleted (or replaced with one that does not have any copyright encumbrance). Regardless of how the ruckus turns out, please either create a new image that does not use a Microsoft clip art image (the issue is the "thinking guy") or request that the image be deleted (add {{Db-author}} to the image description page). Thanks. -- Rick Block (talk) 05:45, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

I don't doubt your good faith, but the reasoning that the image presents is flawed, even if the conclusion is correct. Two doors are always opened in the Monty Hall problem, regardless of what the contestant decides. I passed through the Monty Hall problem article a few days ago and put the image back in, because I remembered it being there when the article was featured. A heated argument ensued among other editors, filled with insults and other shameful behavior. I think everyone inolved has some issues to work out, but in any case I don't think there's any further use for the image. Sorry. Gazpacho 09:51, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
