Anatomical directions on a kangaroo

This image was previously a featured picture and was renominated as it never went through the featured picture candidates process.

  • Excellent illustration. — �David Remahl 10:33, 23 Nov 2004 (UTC)
  • Comment: the copyright notice embedded in the diagram seems to contradict the license information contained in the Wikipedia's image text for this image (or, at least not be as clear as to license intent by the creator) - [[User:Bevo|Bevo]] 20:25, 23 Nov 2004 (UTC)
    • There was a discussion about that issue on the user's talk page, apparently the copyright notice exists on all his diagrams. But it does not mean they can't be licensed under the GFDL. As I understand from the discussion, the diagrams are GFDL, so we might as well cut the copyright notice from the Wikipedia version. -- [[User:Solitude|Solitude\talk]] 20:38, Nov 23, 2004 (UTC)
      • Can you go ahead and create a derivative without the embedded copyright notice? - [[User:Bevo|Bevo]] 21:32, 23 Nov 2004 (UTC)
        • No, I don't think you can...The GFDL says that copyright notices may not be removed. IANAL. — David Remahl 04:31, 24 Nov 2004 (UTC)
          • Correct. To quote the relevant passage: "You may copy and distribute the Document … provided that … the copyright notices … are reproduced in all copies,". ed g2s • talk 13:35, 24 Nov 2004 (UTC)
    • All GFDL images are copyright, but freely licenced. -- Solipsist 20:48, 23 Nov 2004 (UTC)
  • Support - an excellent illustration -- Solipsist 20:48, 23 Nov 2004 (UTC)
  • Oppose, unable to remove copyright tag. (*grumble* at GFDL). Support if the copyright tag is cropped. (Any chance of a version in a lossless format, and not JPEG? On my lo-res laptop screen, you can see artifacts on the edges of text etc.) — Matt 00:56, 24 Nov 2004 (UTC)
  • Oppose. JPEG artifacts are ugly and the picture is only used in one article -- Anatomical terms of location -- where I found the text to be just as clear as the picture; the concept being explained by the diagram isn't that complicated and I don't feel that the diagram really makes it that much clearer. -- Oarih 01:28, 24 Nov 2004 (UTC)
  • Oppose. I do not like the copyright tag in the image (thanks David Remahl for clearing that up), and besides that, I think the illustration is somewhat confusing. -- [[User:Solitude|Solitude\talk]] 09:06, Nov 24, 2004 (UTC)
  • Oppose. Agree that it should be png and without the copyright notice. Will support if that is changed. Janderk 12:28, 24 Nov 2004 (UTC)
  • Oppose - [[User:Bevo|Bevo]] 15:42, 24 Nov 2004 (UTC)
  • Oppose. --ScottyBoy900Q∞ 18:49, 24 Nov 2004 (UTC)
  • Oppose. Great pic with ugly tag in the image -- Chris 73 Talk 04:14, Nov 26, 2004 (UTC)
  • Oppose. [[User:Neutrality|Neutrality/talk]] 06:31, Nov 26, 2004 (UTC)
  • Not retained as a featured picture, +2/-8. -- 137.17.21.227 07:53, 6 Dec 2004 (UTC)
