Fae, in your exploration of the IWM collections have you come across an image of VC winner Richard Been Stannard? I know there is one reference A15014 in the IWM collection but the image isn't shown on their website. Thanks. [[User:Nthep|Nthep]] ([[User talk:Nthep|talk]]) 11:50, 24 March 2013 (UTC)

:Hi, I see matches on the IWM site to "R B Stannard" too. Unfortunately none appears visible to the public. My uploads are filtered to WWII or earlier only to make copyright easy, and if an image is blanked on the IWM site, then they are skipped. However as I have not uploaded the Admiralty collection, I'm giving this a closer look and something might pop-up. You will be able to find a backlog being populated at [[:Category:Admiralty official collection (check needed)]] - it may take a day or two to fill up.

Hi, I was wondering if it would make sense to add the British Museum online IDs to Wikidata entries like [[Q131141]]. I think it would, and this ID is already in use in [[:en:Template:British-Museum-db]]. But two things give me pause: could the museum object to it (Wikidata is much more machine-readable, and much more scalable than Wikipedia) ? Is the ID stable over time ? (I see it in the URL, but no mention of it in the page itself). --[[User:Zolo|Zolo]] ([[User talk:Zolo|talk]]) 07:14, 25 March 2013 (UTC)
