DYK for List of individual body parts

[edit]

On 12 July 2024, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article List of individual body parts, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that a human toe used for cocktails (pictured) is one of many body parts that are tourist attractions? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/List of individual body parts. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, List of individual body parts), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

Your draft article, Draft:Prinx Emmanuel

[edit]

Hello, Gobonobo. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or draft page you started, "Prinx Emmanuel".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material, the draft has been deleted. When you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. plicit 14:00, 12 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

File:Mabel Lucie Attwell.jpg

[edit]

Please ask about File:Mabel Lucie Attwell.jpg at either WP:MCQ or c:COM:VPC because there's a good chance it might've already entered into the public domain if it was published in 1924. If that's the case, the file would not need to be licensed as non-free content and could be hosted on Commons instead. -- Marchjuly (talk) 12:34, 15 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Marchjuly: Thank you. I usually err on the side of caution when PD status is uncertain, but this is good advice. gobonobo + c 13:56, 15 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

File:Adrienne Gessner.jpg ‎

[edit]

It looks like you made a copy-and-paste error in File:Adrienne Gessner.jpg‎'s non-free use rationale and added the wrong article name for the |article= parameter. This caused the file to be removed by a bot that looks for such thing. I fixed the error and re-added the file to the article. Anyway, given the year Gessener was born, there's a good chance that their are other images of her somewhere out there which might be in the public domain. For example, the image you uploaded seems to be a crop of this and the name of the photographer and the name of the production the photo is from are given. You could use that information to ask about the photo at c:COM:VPC to see whether it might now be within the public domain. The photographer might be Wilhelm Willinger who died in 1943 and the production might be something called "Larifari". -- Marchjuly (talk) 14:16, 15 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for fixing that. It looks like there was a production of Larifari at Vienna's Theater in der Josefstadt in 1927. The copyright may have expired, but even if the photo was taken then, I'm unsure whether the photograph was actually published prior to 1932, as required by c:Template:PD-Austria. gobonobo + c 14:42, 15 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding closure of Lubok in my sandbox

[edit]

Hi @Gobonobo! Regarding your recent edits to my sandbox: I was unaware that I even submitted this as a draft; this was solely supposed to be a workspace where I could improve the article privately. I am also aware that Lubok already exists as an article. I apologize for the confusion there. joeyquism (talk) 22:31, 21 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Joeyquism: I wondered if that wasn't the case. No worries. gobonobo + c 22:33, 21 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
