File:Exhumed skeletal remains of victims of the Isaaq genocide.jpg

[edit]

Copyright violation of https://www.voahausa.com/a/an-gano-wani-kabari-cike-da-gawarwaki-a-samaliland/3758379.html. Cordless Larry (talk) 16:11, 5 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Hi Larry, the image is public domain as per [1] "This media is in the public domain in the United States because it solely consists of material created and provided by Voice of America, the official external broadcasting service of the federal government of the United States." I have included that license on the file page [2]. --Kzl55 (talk) 16:17, 5 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Sorry about that, Kzl55 - my bad. Several previous images added to the en:Isaaq genocide article were copyright violations and when I saw the URL in the source field of this one and the linked page didn't include an obvious PD declaration, I clearly jumped to a premature conclusion. Apologies for that. Cordless Larry (talk) 07:33, 6 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • No worries Larry, totally understandable. I am sure the situation wasnt helped with previous instances of copyright violations on the article and also the source page for this photograph not being in English. Appreciate all the work you do. Kzl55 (talk) 16:59, 6 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Kept: resolved as per above. P 1 9 9  ✉ 14:23, 12 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
