Conservapedia talk:Copyright Images

Anyone feel like getting rid of all the "bold" tags? Or do they "mean" something? human  12:15, 15 April 2008 (EDT)
 * They're the Fair use ones. (I'll get rid if you want.) 12:24, 15 April 2008 (EDT)
 * Oops, now I see the note at the top. No need to get rid of, it means something, leave it.  I just missed what it meant. human  12:34, 15 April 2008 (EDT)

Crocoite and Smithsonian images
I was browsing through the unused images to see what was lurking around there and saw Crocoite's various mineral uploads. These linked to http://www.minerals.si.edu/ and various sub pages. Following that to http://www.si.edu/copyright/ they make a distinction between "closed and restricted" (allowed) and "general access" (not allowed).

The appropriate block of text: MAY I PUT UNALTERED IMAGES, TEXT OR CONTENT FROM THIS WEBSITE ON A CLOSED AND RESTRICTED DATABASE AT MY SCHOOL OR MUSEUM? Yes, if there is no charge for the user and if electronic distribution is limited to educational use for a specific purpose or limited duration. The images must remain unaltered. All of the accompanying caption information must be included without alteration, and the citation should include the URL specified above. MAY I PUT UNALTERED IMAGES, TEXT OR CONTENT FROM THIS WEBSITE ON MY PERSONAL WEBSITE? Yes, so long as the site displays no advertisements and no sponsors, does not charge a fee for services, and does not offer any product or service for sale. The images must remain unaltered, and all of the accompanying caption information must be included without alteration, and the citation should include the URL specified above. MAY I PUT IMAGES, TEXT OR CONTENT FROM THIS WEBSITE ON ANOTHER GENERAL ACCESS WEBSITE OR CD-ROM? No, unless permission has been obtained in advance from the Smithsonian Institution.

To the best of my reading, Crocoite's image uploads are all explicitly prohibited. Lets see what an email to the right's management for that site will produce. --Shagie 02:59, 20 April 2008 (EDT)
