File:21_Bengali_Hindus.png

At least one file is a fair use image as per uploader text, several images are not sourced, at least two images miss proper credit and backlinks, GFDL not possible, wrong CC license used, etc Denniss (talk) 21:00, 24 October 2010 (UTC)

Can you please specify which image is a fair use image as per uploader text and which two images miss proper credit and back links? I wish to rectify the errors and learn in this way. I know that 5 images are not showing, but I thought that since they were already on the Wikipedia they would automatically be discovered by Wikimedia. And as I understand CC 3.0 should have been the correct license. As I am a newbie, can you please specify what would be the correct license? BengaliHindu (talk) 18:13, 25 October 2010 (UTC)

Deleted. This kind of collage is a difficult project for a newbie and one that is not likely to be very useful -- it does not lay out well on WP pages and most editors would rather pick their own images than have you assemble a large group for them.

One problem, as noted by the nom, is that Fair Use is not acceptable on Commons, so File:Uttam Kumar.jpg cannot be hosted here.

File:Amartya Sen NIH.jpg may or not be PD -- it no longer appears on the source site and it could well be a non-free image. And so forth.      Jim . . . . Jameslwoodward (talk to me) 16:27, 31 October 2010 (UTC)
