RKO may own the copyright to the image (you claim), but what is the actual source for the jpg? Did you scan it yourself from an actual poster or what?... an online url would be helpful and consistant with the image policy. We need this to vertify if RKO are indeed the owners of the copyright. - The Daddy 02:33, 18 May 2007 (UTC)
I just noticed this. The argument between User:DCGeist and User:Daddy Kindsoul appears to be several months old at least. Please see this diff, wherein Geist is referred to as "Geistcore". There were other exchanges, but I don't want to complicate the situation. Maybe everybody can settle down a bit and stick with the substantive issues, por favor, merci grazie, danke (how do you say that in Icelandic?). ... Kenosis 15:27, 1 September 2007 (UTC)
For images that are demonstrably in the public domain, a url is not necessary, and indeed even a statement of the source is not legally necessary (unlike with images under known copyright). As a matter of current Wikipedia policy, public domain images are still in something of a black hole, being neither free licensed nor non-free content. Having the progeny of an image is a useful feature however, even if it's in the public domain. If this image, among others originating from the old FBO/RKO archives, was, say, scanned and put into jpeg form, this would be useful information; if it's scanned from a private collection, this would be useful, and if it was found online, this too would be useful information. ...
