Hi Ziggur,
I removed the image after asking Carnildo, who is more knowledgeable about these things than me (the discussion is on his talk page at or near the bottom). If you're pretty sure that the image can be reasonably claimed to be public domain, feel free to put it back. I try to be very cautious with images. Apparently there was a message from Jimbo about exactly this issue in May (link is in the discussion). Thanks and happy editing, Antandrus (talk) 21:57, 28 August 2005 (UTC)
- He recommended deletion not knowing the circumstances of the image, aside from the person's likely invalid non-commercial use license, it looks like. I'll upload it with a PD tag. Ziggur 00:41, August 29, 2005 (UTC)
Vandalism?
Hey, I saw one of your
- Indeed, I didn't mean to make my edit look like it was calling you a vandal, but that's what it looked like anyway. I edited the article to remove the "ALL YOUR BASE..." stuff, I guess Wikipedia didn't pick up the edit conflict. Ziggur 18:50, August 30, 2005 (UTC)
- Hey, I once edited the scorpion page and changed "Scuicide Misconception" to "Scorpion Scuicide" and told how they DID commit scuicide when surrounded by fire.--Calvinsupergenius 19:34, 19 January 2006 (UTC) Ya, remember me, Ziggur?
Photography etc.
Thanks! I've been trying to track the development of the SLR, which is rather difficult to do: it seems that most cameranuts are brand loyalists, so you can find a million sites on the history of Nikon, say, but few that deal with overall technology. Time to hit the library, I guess! I think I've taken it fairly accurately through the mid sixties, and the paragraph on the autofocus revolution isn't bad, but I need to fill in on the seventies/eighties (largely the growth of electronics and motorization) and the nineties/present day. It's a big subject, and probably needs to be split off into a 'history of the SLR' article at some point.
I'm not as up on Nikon history as I am the other brands, so if you know anything, please feel free! It's also a bit lacking on the Contax brand and a few others. Photographic equipment is a huge subject which Wikipedia's a bit lacking in right now. Would you see a "WikiProject Photographic Equipment" as a worthwhile thing to do?
Multi-licensing into the public domain: yes, it's a bit nonsensical, really. It just helps those who don't understand PD very well to realise that they can treat it as either. Matthew Brown 01:21, 18 November 2005 (UTC)
I see you replaced the image on Nikon FA

Santa Monica photo
It's not the sunset that's beautiful in the picture, it's the combination. Check out the picture: Santa Monica Sunset.JPG, it has nicer sunset, but that's not the idea, like I said, it's the combination.
Hey
Good call on the Doomtree article. ReverendG 16:44, 19 June 2006 (UTC) I want to, where are they selling tickets?
