Aircraft 3-View Drawings

[edit]

These images were all uploaded by myself and scanned from documents bearing "distribution statements" on the title page. I initially asked about the subject in a post in the village pump, but have since come to believe I have misunderstood the requirements. While I still do not believe there is a copyright violation – as that would require a "proprietary information" as a reason – I do believe there may be a violation of distribution rules. Therefore, I believe they should be deleted because they have what is essentially a non-free license. (Please note that this only applies to images that mention "distribution" statements in the permission field of the information template and not older images of the same type that do not bear the statement.) Alternatively, you may consider this a courtesy deletion.

I wasn't able to find any particular guidance on the issue other than a single deletion request that didn't seem to establish consensus. On the other side of things, an explanation of distribution statements can be found in DoD Instruction 5230.24 and as a chart explaining the different categories. –Noha307 (talk) 22:35, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
