Files on Wikisource
[edit]Hi, the only files that should be uploaded here are those where they are acceptable under our copyright/public domain rules but under those of Commons. For Zodiac Stories the files are acceptable under Commons' rules and so should be uploaded there. We access them here in exactly the same way as we do local files. This is why I have added the {{Move to Wikimedia Commons}} template. Please upload any further images to Commons. Cheers, Beeswaxcandle (talk) 03:53, 23 January 2013 (UTC)
- Sorry about that. I'll add them there. You added a tag for the files: {{PD-old}}, which says This work published before January 1, 1923 is in the public domain worldwide because the author died at least 100 years ago." How did you find out when the author died? I'm looking at the form at Commons and I am unsure which to select. - Starcartographer (talk) 04:12, 23 January 2013 (UTC)
- I found her dates on the Internet Archive here. The equivalent of our PD-old on Commons is PD-100. Beeswaxcandle (talk) 04:19, 23 January 2013 (UTC)
- She might need an author page. I uploaded the PDF and the JPG file to Commons. Sorry about that. - s t a r c a r (talk) 04:26, 23 January 2013 (UTC)
