25143 Itokawa has no image. Something was there previously, but then deleted. Now that the spacecraft has come and gone, its many images (and data) could significantly improve the article. Their image use policy is here:[1] I don't see any problems, but the previous images were deleted. This really is important, as only a handful of small bodies have ever been imaged in detail, and missing one of them doesn't make the article informative. (It is, after all, about the asteroid.)--Planetary 01:36, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

Unfortunately the license is only free for noncommercial use, which is not enough for Wikipedia. Unless you can persuade the JAXA to release an image under the GFDL, I think the NASA radar image is the best we can do. We can always still link to the JAXA images, of course. —Ilmari Karonen (talk) 19:17, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
What about fair use? Could that be a possibility or not? --Planetary 22:41, 19 November 2006 (UTC)
Given the free availability of the NASA image, I would assume not. -- Sakurambo 桜ん坊 11:16, 28 November 2006 (UTC)
That image isn't even being used on the Itokawa page. It's an "orphan". Oh, and 1 question. Why do other websites use the Itokawa images? I don't see any permission granted on these sites[2] They just put "Credit: ISAS/JAXA", or nothing at all, and get away with it! I don't understand! --Planetary 22:50, 10 December 2006 (UTC)
First you should read the image use guidelines at the www.jaxa.jp website, which you mentioned yourself at the beginning of this thread. Then familiarize yourself with Wikipedia's image use policy and fair use guidelines. As Ilmari Karonen said, the license is only free for noncommercial use. This is not enough for Wikipedia. -- Sakurambo 桜ん坊 10:38, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
Well, okay. No JAXA images, then. Except those found on NASA's website. I see there are a few illustrations of JAXA's spacecraft, which are to be found there. --Planetary 23:59, 29 December 2006 (UTC)

  • Nanokernel, diagrams showing the main ideas behind a Nanokernel

[edit] Economics

Estimating World GDP, One Million B.C. - Present has at the end some very nice graphs of how the world's economy how developed. In particular, the explosive growth in GDP/capita after the industrial revolution. I think that similar graphs that can be used in Wikipedia could be created from the raw data the link provides. That would be a good addition to articles like Industrial revolution, World economy, and Economic growth.Ultramarine 19:38, 18 May 2006 (UTC)

  • Map where the track of Nelson River Bipole is drawn in
  • A bit-timing diagram for various frames for Controller Area Network
    • I have added a Bit Timing diagram for a single bit, showing Seg, Prop, Phase1 and Phase2. But I think there should be a couple more diagrams of the bits within the frame.
  • A diagram of international optical fiber networks or an example of a local network layout for Fiber-optic communication.
  • A system diagram for the typical fiber-optic communication network.

  • It would be much more helpful if there was a map for the Judaea article: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Judaea 128.163.224.199 14:44, 12 May 2006 (UTC)
  • If anyone could add a map to the Dhahran article that would be great. I couldn't find any accurate maps for that topic.
  • A map of the city of Chicago showing geographical features, neighborhoods, main streets, etc. Oddly enough, the article doesn't have one.
    See Category:Maps of Chicago, Illinois; see talk.
  • Please add a historical map showing the approximate boundaries of Greater Syria.
  • Can someone find a map of where the Tanggula Mountain Pass is located in Tibet Autonomous Region? It is now the home of the highest railway in the world, and I think that with a picture we might be able to get it "in the news" on the Main Page. Mamawrites 15:36, 24 August 2005 (UTC)
  • We need some help, please. For the Lewis&Clark article we would like to have some pictures:
    • Fort Vancouver National Historic Site, Portland OR
    • Fort Clatsop National Memorial; Astoria, OR
    • Lewis-and-Clark-Campsite
    • L&C Interpretive Center

2006 is the Lewis & Clark Year and there are no pictures on Commons. Please help! Thanx!! --Hedwig in Washington (TALK) 02:28, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Flags & Heraldry

  • Royal Standard of Norway needs and image of the pennant flag.
  • Conch Republic: Coat of arms of the Conch Republic. On website only in outline, untricked and -hatched. Who knows the tinctures or blazon?
    • I would blazon it "On a roundel, sable, a compass rose of twelve, or voided azure, environed of twelve mullets, argent; over all, a conch shell, proper. The motto 'THE CONCH REPUBLIC' above, and 'We seceded where others failed' below" -- but it has been decades since I wore the herald's baldric. ➥the Epopt 17:28, 24 Dec 2004 (UTC)
      • If you're talking about that round seal of theirs, you can see a colour version on the official polo shirt < fetches own from bedroom > - it's definitely a heurte (roundel azure). Let's see... 'On a heurte, a compass rose of twelve within a roundel of mullets Or, overall a king conch proper...' and then Epopt's motto terminology.

        Incidentally, the original flag which inspired the flag of the Republic is on display at the official Conch store on Duval. It's a ship flag dating from the late 1800s or early 1900s. If I'd known, I'd've taken notes! *grin* -- HL Tanarian Brenaur ferch Owain fab Bran, Trimaris (Corgi 02:02, 24 October 2005 (UTC))
  • Alghero: Flag -- Get-back-world-respect 15:06, 16 May 2004 (UTC)
  • Ribagorça: Flag -- Please leave me a note on my talk page in case you add one of the flags. It may be possible to keep some of the large flags with good quality when they are reduced to a smaller size, e.g. with 200px. Get-back-world-respect 15:06, 16 May 2004 (UTC)
  • I'd be very grateful if someone would create free-use versions of the arms of Churchill College, Cambridge (to replace Image:Churchill College Crest - embossed.png) for Colleges of the University of Cambridge, currently a Featured list candidate. -- ALoan (Talk) 20:01, 16 February 2006 (UTC)

  • Plane–sphere intersection: a three-part picture of a plane and a sphere such that 1) the plane and sphere does not intersect, 2) they intersects at a point, and 3) they intersect at a circle. Haseldon 17:04, 18 November 2006 (UTC)
made an image, maby not the best... - Zephyris Talk 15:16, 19 November 2006 (UTC)
Thank you very much for your work! I think the picture is good enough. Good color scheme. Just some very minor nitpicking (if you make similar pictures in the future): In the first case, it might not be clear that there's no intersection. Also, in the second case, the point could be emphasized. But, as I said, that is just nitpicking. The idea should be clear from the pictures. Haseldon 15:53, 19 November 2006 (UTC)
Edited and reuploaded, hopefully better :). - Zephyris Talk 12:39, 20 November 2006 (UTC)
Thanks! Much better. Haseldon 16:26, 26 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Prewellordering: need pics for Reduction and Separation properties. For the latter I don't really want an analogue of Moschovakis' Figure 4B1; I'd rather have one that shows separation of two disjoint sets in Γ. --Trovatore 18:38, 6 September 2005 (UTC)
  • Riemann sphere needs a drawing for the version being fermented in the discussion page. It should show a sphere, the top tangent plane (or both if it would be better), and a projection or two from the south pole through the sphere onto the top plane. It should clearly be shown that the point z = a + ib on the plane corresponds to the point on the sphere that lies on the same line. Also, the top plane should be labelled as the z plane. -- Domenic Denicola 01:11, 10 December 2005 (UTC)
    • An image is currently available in the page. Is that what you were asking for? manu3d 14:55, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
  • Maxima and minima: Any possibility of a figure with a 3-dimensional local maximum there? Such a figure would be of great heuristic value in generalizing visually the notion of maxima and minima. Perhaps it could be borrowed or adapted from the Saddle point article. It would get plenty more links to that article. Thanks. Thomasmeeks 17:59, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

  • Coat of arms of Comoros — According to the Comoros page, this coat of arms is the old one, the name of the country having changed to the considerably shorter "Union of the Comoros". If someone could find out what the new logo looks like and put it together, thanx. 68.39.174.238 06:09, 2 April 2006 (UTC)
  • Huntington_Clash_of_Civilizations_chart - Could someone please rip the captions out of the image? This is also a good opportunity to update it to an SVG. (I believe GNUPlot should be able to produce this diagram.)

I have made an image, currently a .png or .ai. I can't convert to .svg tho, can anyone help by converting/letting me know about a (free) program that can? - Zephyris Talk 18:00, 19 November 2006 (UTC)
did you try http://www.inkscape.org/?MarkAnthonyBoyle 02:47, 21 November 2006 (UTC)
i used inkscape - here is the result - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Helicopter_AnatomySVG.svg Ryanlerch 03:37, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

This should look like Giant Plane Comparison.svg and should compare at least Panamax, Seawaymax and Suezmax. Witty lama 13:49, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
