accidentally calling your closure into question[edit]

I recently nominated File:Monica Elfriede Witt in uniform.jpg for deletion, citing your closure of this deletion discussion. I took your closure as precedent in the nomination, but it's apparently not as cut-and-dried as I thought and instead I've led to your closing being questioned. I'm not an expert on the matter, just basing my understanding on previous decisions, and would definitely like a consensus on this; not asking your to come down one way or another, but would you mind looking in on the discussion?

@Fourthords: Thanks for reaching out. Unfortunately, I don't think I can be much help here. My close was based entirely on the lack of a source making it impossible to verify any possible routes to it being PD; I don't have any useful knowledge about the contractor issue in this discussion.

Grif Teller photo[edit]

Hello, I'm looking for a print of Mass Transportation (Army-Navy Game) by Grif Teller and I'm wondering about the photo you uploaded. Was it just downloaded from Michael Froio's site or do you have a hard copy of it in some form? Thank you in advance! Shana3980 (talk) 23:16, 28 November 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

@Shana3980: Unfortunately, I don't have a hard copy; the version on Commons is indeed from Michael Froio's site. (I can only wish for a hard copy - it looks like originals are around $150 on eBay.) It fortunately is a very good scan, and should be fine for printing up to around 18"x12" without any noticeable degradation in quality. If you do need a larger scan, I can only suggest contacting the PRRTHS. Best of luck! Pi.1415926535 (talk) 23:39, 28 November 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Great suggestions; I'll try printing first. Thank you very much! Shana3980 (talk) 23:44, 28 November 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Cape Cod[edit]

Hi, you he moved some pictures to Category:Unidentified locations on Cape Cod, even though it has been clearly tagged with category of location, for example Barnstable County or Falmouth, Massachusetts , et ctr , why do moved pictures still to unidentified location, did I place pictures to to not proper category do you think? EgorovaSvetlana (talk) 22:33, 11 January 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]

@EgorovaSvetlana: It is your responsibility to place your images into the most specific categories - and only the most specific. For example, if you place an image in Category:Falmouth, Massachusetts, it should not also be placed in the parent Category:Cape Cod. You have placed a number of images in very broad categories like Category:Cape Cod, which means other users like me end up having to recategorize them. If the images are properly categorized by location (at least to the town level, if not more specific), you can remove them from Category:Unidentified locations on Cape Cod.
