Talk:Model release

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Liability waiver shouldn't redirect here, as a model release is only one specific form of liability waiver. When you sign a liability waiver before skydiving, is that a model release? No. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 12.3.61.131 (talk) 15:23, August 20, 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Required on Wikipedia

We should have a link to the policy for model releases in photos on WP, if any. -- Subsolar 02:05, 3 May 2007 (UTC)

WP is entirely editorial in the purest definitions. There is no ambiguity here. Therefore, no release is ever required of photos of recognizable people on WP. -- Dan Heller 22:04, 12 May 2007 (UTC)

All of my edits on this page remain, yet someone continues to remove the reference I make to the longer articles on my website on the subject (www.danheller.com/model-release), which is the result of considerable research. I suspect the reference removals are the work of the lawyer who replaced my references with links to his own site. I cannot afford to take the time to continually monitor this site because others use it to raise their own google rankings. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Argv1 (talk • contribs) 06:11, 7 January 2008 (UTC)


[edit] modelsobserver.com links

This and other Wikipedias in other languages have been relentlessly spammed by anonymous IPs based in Israel (where the domain is registered) for many months. It's gotten sufficiently bad as to warrant addition to the spam blacklist and I have removed a number of these links in anticipation of blacklisting:

Most, but not all, had been added by the site-owner.

If an established, high-volume editor sees value to the specific link I deleted from this article, please let me know and it can be evaluated for addition to the spam "whitelist"
