I uploaded a [http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File%3APat_OHara_Wood.jpg photo of Australian tennis player Pat O'Hara Wood] which is a public domain image from Bibliothèque nationale de France's Gallica website. I intend to upload a couple more PD images from the same source and therefore would appreciate if someone can verify if this upload was done correctly (in terms of licencing info / attribution) before I continue. Thx.--[[User:Wolbo|Wolbo]] ([[User talk:Wolbo|talk]]) 13:10, 17 March 2013 (UTC)

:It looks good. But the source credits agence Rol. Is there a reason to use the creator and category for agence Mondial instead of the creator and category for Rol? A U.S. status template should be added. You may also want to use Template:PD-BNF. I'm not sure about the use of PD-old-70 when no individual person is credited as author. -- [[User:Asclepias|Asclepias]] ([[User talk:Asclepias|talk]]) 18:24, 17 March 2013 (UTC)

== Yale Center for British Art ==

+

+
Yale Center for British Art has a free license on their digital images: [http://britishart.yale.edu/terms/imaging/unrestricted].

+

+
Is there a license template which expresses these terms? If the artwork is PD, they also license their images this way, including photos of sculptures. It would be useful to let people know that the digital media itself is also PD, as this maximizes the number of people who can use it freely. We have [[:Category:Collections of the Yale Center for British Art|>5000 files]] from them. --[[User:Moogsi|moogsi]] ([[User talk:Moogsi|blah]]) 20:28, 17 March 2013 (UTC)
