A nationality one[edit]
How to describe Miriam Margoyles? Not as easy as it sounds. There's a discussion here on the talk page. Laterthanyouthink (talk) 09:10, 27 April 2024 (UTC)
Victorian Parliament images[edit]
Came across this image used on the Steph Ryan page which is taken from the Victorian Parliament website
I don't really know much about the copyright on these images, is someone able to confirm whether they can be used (with the appropriate licensing of course) or not? Because if they are it seems worthwhile getting them uploaded to the pages of all Victorian state MPs without existing images Totallynotarandomalt69 (talk) 12:20, 27 April 2024 (UTC)
- It was apparently uploaded by the Nationals, but given the Vic Parliament says all of their website content is copyrighted and can't be shared for commercial use, I'd say it should be removed from Commons. https://www.parliament.vic.gov.au/copyright/
- If you want to add photos of all the MPs you could contact individual MPs asking for a photo, or attend an event to take a photo yourself. It could be something worth getting funding from WMAU to do. Perhaps you could even partner with WMAU to run an info session about Commons for MPs? Jimmyjrg (talk) 00:10, 28 April 2024 (UTC)
I left this message on the New South Wales project talk page, but that project appears to be lifeless. Anyone here want to have a crack at cleaning up this article?

Gentle reminder - the AFD list[edit]
For those editors not fully familiar with all aspects of the Australian project, an interesting point of understanding the processes involved the checking articles for a range of issues is -

The Australian deletion sorting page is well worth visiting, to understand the discussions and ways that deletion can be argued. At times, there are the usual suspects, and in many cases editors who seem totally oblivious to Trove for instance. It is worth visiting. JarrahTree 06:33, 12 May 2024 (UTC)
