DYK for Japanese Buddhist architecture

Updated DYK queryOn July 9, 2010, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Japanese Buddhist architecture, which you created or substantially expanded. You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, quick check ) and add it to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page.

Query re image

File:Silver fern flag stylised.svg

I noticed that the flag seen on the right was uploaded today to Silver Fern Flag by User:Awiseman. I checked it out and see you were the uploader (to wiki) on 8 November 2008, and you gave the source as your own work and that you were the copyright holder. I remember this design from the Change The New Zealand Flag promotion of a few years ago, as this website shows. Did you design the flag for them, (the NZFlag.com Trust)? Moriori (talk) 01:00, 29 July 2010 (UTC)

No, I did not design the flag for the NZFlag.com Trust. I don't think I ever heard of them. As far as I remember the flag was done on request from some wikipedia or commons (less likely) graphics or illustration lab, so there might be some information in the archives there. As far as I remember, all I did was to create a svg-image based on some existing source (likely a png, gif or jpg image). Can't remember what the source was though. I hope I did not make a mistake with the license. bamse (talk) 07:28, 29 July 2010 (UTC)
Perhaps you did. The design is exactly the same as the flag at this website I mentioned. So, what "own work" or "copyright" do you actually claim? Moriori (talk) 08:08, 29 July 2010 (UTC)
The vectorization. Can that be copyrighted? Please let me know if I should have it deleted (how?) or if I should upload it under another license. I am not familiar with licensing, but usually careful with it (asked a couple of questions at "Commons talk:Licensing" in cases where I was not sure). bamse (talk) 08:23, 29 July 2010 (UTC)
Vectorization? All I know is that someone created that design for the NZFlag.com Trust but Misplaced Pages is attributing the copyright to someone else. Does not compute. Moriori (talk) 08:34, 29 July 2010 (UTC)
So how shall we proceed? bamse (talk) 09:03, 29 July 2010 (UTC)
Truly bamse, you should know what would be the right thing to do. Cheers. Moriori (talk)
Honestly, I am not sure so I asked at Commons talk:Licensing. bamse (talk) 17:00, 29 July 2010 (UTC)

(Outdent) Seems from the conversation there that we need to formalise a licensed use of the image. Tell you what, if you e-mail susan.clifford@hrlmorrison.com and explain that we need authority to use the image, I'm sure it will all end up ok. Cheers Moriori (talk) 02:42, 30 July 2010 (UTC)

Hm, I understood the discussion differently. Since I don't remember what source I used it might be a copyright violation. That's why I asked for the image to be deleted. bamse (talk) 11:51, 30 July 2010 (UTC)

Meiji era ukiyo-e

Please take a look at the format of Toyohara Chikanobu#Genres. It is clear to me that the format could be improved, but I don't have the skills to know how to do better. Nor do I know who else to ask for critical comments and suggestions.

The edit history for this article will reveal that it is primarily the work of one contributor. My involvement is superficial. This same editor is responsible for both (a) the concept for this genre section and (b) the images which were uploaded. Please allow me to bring User:GaryD144 to your attention. Something good is going on here; and I distrust my ability to provide the kinds of feedback which might be helpful. --Tenmei (talk) 02:08, 6 August 2010 (UTC)
