Added Something Here

110

Thanks, I know you did something to prettify the image I added... but I don't know exactly what! But Thanks :) Martinpaling 16:49, 10 February 2011 (PST)

I actually didn't do anything to the image you added. What I did, because you had worked on the page, I saw this recorded in the "recent changes" link on the left of every page and remembered that somebody had added one of my pictures here awhile back and went and looked at it. When I did, I noticed that they had credited it to my screen name from Flickr and I changed it to my real name. If you'll click on the "history" tab at the top of each page, you can see who did what edits and when they did them. If they're good and use the comment box at the bottom of the edit screen like you did, it will even show what edits they did. I always describe what I do so that nothing's secret and anybody can see exactly what changes I was responsible for. So, you can see all these things for yourself. I thought the picture you added was quite good. I still use 110 myself, so I'm interested in it. That's another reason why I thought to check out the page. I saw your message that you would try to do some edits and then saw where you had edited the 110 page. I knew immediately that you must be a fan of 110 as well! Nice to meet you! My name is Kenny and if you'll look on my user page, you can see some of my pictures and they will link back to me on Flickr and you can see my profile and all sorts of things about me. I meet a lot of nice people on wikis like this! HaarFager 20:28, 10 February 2011 (PST)

USC Reflex III

Hello HaarFager. Thank you for creating USC Reflex III, and for adding two photographs to it. Both are yours at Flickr, so if one puts two and two together it's obvious that you are happy for them to appear in Camera-wiki.org. However, for the second one this is not the way it seems: the photo has "All rights reserved" and there's no mention there of Camera-wiki.org. Could you please add it to the "camerawiki" pool? Thanks. Zuleika 04:10, 11 April 2011 (PDT)

The picture in question is one that is not appropriate for the Camerawiki pool. It is not a picture of a camera, therefore I did not add it. HaarFager 05:54, 11 April 2011 (PDT)

I think that the camerawiki pool contains other pictures that aren't of cameras (or of lenses, exposure meters, etc), so I don't think that this matters. However, my understanding of Flickr is very limited, so I hesitate to say more than this about that matter. But if readers click on the dog photo, they arrive at this Flickr page, which, as far as I can see, doesn't indicate any permission for the photo to be used at Camera-wiki.org, and indeed (thanks to "All rights reserved") implies that it can't. Again this doesn't matter much, because it's pretty clear that the person who added it there is the person who links to it from here. However, the contradiction helps give the impression to newbies and others that Camera-wiki.org doesn't take copyright seriously. Ignoring "All rights reserved" is not something that Camera-wiki.org should seem to encourage. How about changing the license to Creative Commons non-commercial? Zuleika 06:32, 11 April 2011 (PDT)
