[edit] Image:Ka'ba2003.jpg

You stated the image is in the public domain because "[..] the picture is being used on Wikipedia to illustrate an Islamic concept." This might be true but public domain lets you use the image in other contexts, as well. So I doubt that this image really is PD, it might be used under the fair use rationale only. --Matt314 10:03, 18 June 2006 (UTC)

Feel free to change the licensing information if you feel it is incorrect. joturn

[edit] obama pic

I am not the one who uploaded or added the picture you removed from Barack Obama, so I don't know what the license tag said, but I don't understand your edit summary - this is not commercial use, so what did you mean? thanks Tvoz | talk 20:00, 12 February 2007 (UTC)

This image was stored at Commons. There, as well as at the English Wikipedia, it is necessary that the image can be used commercially. Here it says: For an image to be considered "free" under Wikipedia's Image use policy, the license must permit both commercial reuse and derivative works. --Matt314 16:42, 13 February 2007 (UTC)
Ah, I see. thanksTvoz | talk 18:27, 13 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Copyright violation

Hi, just to bring this to your attention: Unfortunately, the Image:Niutao.jpg is a copyright violation. It is not as stated US Government Work, but from Google Maps.--Ratzer 21:22, 17 May 2007 (UTC)

Thank you for this information. I nominated the image for deletion. --Matt314 04:55, 22 June 2007 (UTC)
