AfD nomination of Zelezny

I have nominated Zelezny, an article you created, for deletion. I do not feel that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Zelezny. Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time. Do you want to opt out of receiving this notice? SynergeticMaggot (talk) 00:17, 26 May 2008 (UTC)

I am still editing and adjusting this article to fullfil the requirements of Wikepedia. Niels Aage (talk) 21:20, 29 May 2008 (UTC)NielsAage

Don't worry too much about the AfD, she's obviously a notable sculptor, although her days were the early part of the 20th century, and she's not much presence on the web. She has works in the collections of multiple major museums, and she could not have this if she were not notable. However, the article looks awful the way you've added the pictures, please consider formatting them. I will move them to the talk page for now, then, please, either you format or allow someone else to format. --Blechnic (talk) 21:25, 29 May 2008 (UTC)

Hi, that was some nice work saving this article. It's good to see AFD having such a positive result. Cheers Kevin (talk) 01:45, 30 May 2008 (UTC)

Images

You've uploaded photos of sculptures on the Commons and released them under GFDL. There are two copyrights: 1) the photographer 2) the sculptor (or the sculptor's estate). Unless you have cleared both, you cannot put them on Commons, or they will be deleted. You can put them on wikipedia, release copyright 1 under GFDL, but copyright 2 can only be used under "fair use" claims. If copyright 2 is cleared, it must be notified per Wikipedia:Requesting_copyright_permission#When_permission_is_confirmed. Ty 03:24, 30 May 2008 (UTC)

The artist died in 1974 and left no close relatives to my knowledge. Her husband John Zelezny died already in 1957. [1] The pictures published are taken from her own books (5) which are all in my possession. I would not know where to seek copyright. Therefore I consider the pictures "public possession" Niels Aage (talk) 05:39, 30 May 2008 (UTC)Niels Aage

I'm afraid that doesn't work for wiki, unless you can prove that they are now public domain. Otherwise we assume the copyright belongs to someone. Ty 06:47, 30 May 2008 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of Maria Stona

A tag has been placed on Maria Stona requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. triwbe (talk) 05:47, 20 July 2008 (UTC)

File source problem with File:Helene Scholz Zelezny 1913.jpg

Thank you for uploading File:Helene Scholz Zelezny 1913.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of that website's terms of use of its content. However, if the copyright holder is a party unaffiliated from the website's publisher, that copyright should also be acknowledged.

If you have uploaded other files, consider verifying that you have specified sources for those files as well. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged per Wikipedia's criteria for speedy deletion, F4. If the image is copyrighted and non-free, the image will be deleted 48 hours after 22:13, 1 March 2011 (UTC) per speedy deletion criterion F7. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Magog the Ogre (talk) 22:13, 1 March 2011 (UTC)
