Couldn't agree more, Countrymike, about the anonymity. But not sure what you mean.  Sign [[User:Hackademic|Hackademic]] 15:33, 31 August 2007 (NZST) to what, my edits? or my talk messages? The username comes up in recent changes. Thanks for bringing your expertise. Welcome to the project. The one who didn't sign the discussion page on the licensing was Bruced, who does the software tweaking. Hackademic.

:I don't see why not, so long as those pictures are licensed under CC-SA. All the pictures on commons should have that license or a similar or more liberal one (I license all mine as public domain). When importing pictures under other licenses, we should duplicate that license here, and for all such pictures, we should credit the commons page and author on the image page.

I don't see why not, so long as those pictures are licensed under CC-SA. All the pictures on commons should have that license or a similar or more liberal one (I license all mine as public domain). When importing pictures under other licenses, we should duplicate that license here, and for all such pictures, we should credit the commons page and author on the image page.
There are pictures on English Wikipedia however which are under a claim of fair use, and we shouldn't import those.
Wikipedia can also use any picture (or text) from here, although I'm not aware that it's ever done so to date.-Gadfium 21:36, 22 June 2009 (NZST)
