Duke Humfrey's Library Interior 2

Hi,

I would very much like to use this image for a 4-5 metre wide backdrop to an exhibition stand at the Abu Dhabi book fair in April. Would it be possible to obtain a much higher resolution image than that available on Wikipedia?

Looking forward to hearing from you,

Use of images of Lincoln Cathedral

Dear David Iliff.

I am a project manager at the Getty Conservation Institute (see getty.edu/conservation/). We are a non-profit organization based in Los Angeles.

My team is currently working with the City of Lincoln in England to implement a software platform, called Arches, that we have built and are making freely available to heritage organizations worldwide (see archesproject.org).

In launching the new system for Lincoln next month, we are making a short video highlighting the reasons for the new system. The video will be disseminated on the archesproject.org website.

We would very much like to use some of your beautiful images from the interior of the Lincoln Cathedral in the video.

Since I am not entirely familiar with the ins and outs of the license that you indicate on wikimedia, I am asking if you would be willing to give us permission to use the following 3 images:

https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Lincoln_Cathedral_Rood_Screen,_Lincolnshire,_UK_-_Diliff.jpg https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Lincoln_Cathedral_Presbytery,_Lincolnshire,_UK_-_Diliff.jpg https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Lincoln_Cathedral_Nave_1,_Lincolnshire,_UK_-_Diliff.jpg

We're going to need to finalize the video within the next several days, and I would very much appreciate it if you were able to give us permission to use the images and any restrictions that you may have.

Thank you very much! Alison adalgity [at] getty.edu

Your St. Peter's Square picture

Good Evening

I really want to thank you for your picture St_Peter's_Square,_Vatican_City_-_April_2007.

I was in Rome and went up to the gallery. I am 72, it was in the 90s (F) and my bad knee was hurting. I made an attempt to climb to the cupola but gave up after several steps. I resigned myself to not being able to get a picture from there. I recently discovered your pictured. I have downloaded it and included it (noting that it was from you in the exif data) in my album of the trip.

Thank you again for taking it, and more for releasing it under CC BY-SA 3.0.

Hi Ecragg! Thank you for getting in touch to let me know. Very glad that I was able to help to reproduce the view for you! I hope you were able to zoom in, because the photo is quite detailed (it's a montage from many photos stitched together). Regards, David. Ðiliff «» (Talk) 06:18, 9 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Toledo

Hello! I've been a fan of this picture since I first saw it over a decade ago. Now I finally got my hands on a humble DLSR and next Friday I'm visiting the city and I'd like to go and try to recreate it. Can you please tell me, if you remember, from where did you shoot it? I see a potential church, but I'm not sure. Thanks! --Fernando 15:16, 11 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Hi Fernando, I can't remember exactly which church it was now (it was 12 years ago!), but it was definitely taken from a church tower. From memory, there were only a couple of large churches with big spires so I'm sure you will be able to find it. I don't know exactly how closely you want to replicate the photo (including the sunset?), but keep in mind that it was taken in December (very close to the winter solstice) so the church tower was open until sunset. In early autumn, you would probably not be able to get a photo at sunset because I would imagine they would close the tower before sunset. So you will likely get very different lighting conditions from my photo! I imagine that visiting in the morning would mean the sun is behind you and this would probably be better than in the afternoon when the sun would be in front of you and this would create problems for the photo. I hope that helps. Ðiliff «» (Talk) 00:09, 12 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
    • Thanks for your reply! Yes, I noticed that the light conditions won't be ideal during my trip, but I'll try to at least achieve a decent panoramic playing with what I get. At least it won't be cloudy and dull. If I finally get to do it, I'll make sure to show it here! Thanks again and keep inspiring others! Fernando 12:28, 14 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Jim Crute moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Jim Crute, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. CASSIOPEIA(talk) 10:44, 5 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Diliff, Good day. I have moved your page above to draft space. To meet the MMA fighter notability requirements, the fighter needs to have at least 3 fights under the top tier promoter (UFC and Invicta) - pls see WP:NMMA. Dana White Tuesday Night Series is NOT UFC event. Pls wait under Crute has secured 3 fights under UFC banner, add the traditional content and provide inline citations (independent, reliable sources (at least 3) and resubmit. You can inform me when you have done that (maybe in 4-6 months time after his third fight in UFC) and I will review the article and publish the article for you (note: I am one of the reviewers in Wikipedia). thank you. Cheers. CASSIOPEIA(talk) 10:51, 5 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Hi CASSIOPEIA(talk, thanks for the heads up. I was surprised to see it moved to drafts since I had already included quite a few references. I wasn't aware the notability guidelines were that strict. I see that there are many other fights who don't have 3 fights in top tier promotions. Nick Newell for example, who has an extensive 'second tier' fight record, although I see that he's had an article for many years and I suppose before the guidelines for MMA fighters had been established. For what it's worth, if you are signed to the UFC, you are almost guaranteed to have 3 fights since very few are cut before reaching that point. Ðiliff «» (Talk) 11:02, 5 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
