[edit] Buildings

Al-Askari Mosque - this is the mosque in Iraq that had the golden dome which was destroyed in a bombing in February 2006. BBC hosts a good Reuters photo of it at [1] but of course that's not an open source photo. Tempshill 16:56, 12 February 2007 (UTC)
Malacañang Palace — It turns out all the "PD" photos from the Philippine Government are actually noncommercial-permissiononly! As such, all three photos of Malacanang are at best fair use and at worst outright copyright violations. Anyone think they could get a shot of it to replace the ones there now? 68.39.174.238 06:21, 13 December 2006 (UTC)
Fagus Factory - Seminal Walter Gropius and Adolf Meyer building in Alfeld on the Leine in Germany constructed in 1911. I need the classic textbook image of the front showing the curtain wall corner with the staircase behind. Details too, if possible. --Mcginnly | Natter 09:58, 8 December 2006 (UTC)

Sun Temple, Modhera, a 1000 year old sun temple in Modhera, Gujarat, India. a tourist location. Need of a copyright-free image.

One or more Zayats, a combination rest-house/religious building in Myanmar. Example at this link [2] 21:22, 4 June 2006 (UTC)
Sears Tower — Yes, I know the article has three pictures of it and commons has a few more. However, two on the article are not free images and the third image — GFDL'ed — is small. Surely someone is in the Chicago area that can take a high-res picture of it during a clear day? Cburnett 00:21, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
Buttress. All the photos in this article are of ancient or Neogothic examples, but the text says that buttresses are still used. How about a photo of a buttress in a recent building? --Heron 20:49, 5 August 2006 (UTC)
The Hewlett Packard Building - I think it would be nice to add the building to the article about Sillicon Valley and maybe on the HP article as well.
Sker House, a nice quality photograph would be appreciated. Deyyaz ^{[ Talk | Contribs ]} 17:43, 16 August 2006 (UTC)
Wal-Mart Headquarters in Bentonville, Arkansas. There's plenty of photos of discount stores and supercenters in the Wal-Mart article, but the article could use a good photo of the main corporate headquarters building/campus, specifically in the corporate governance section. Dr. Cash 21:23, 16 August 2006 (UTC)
Palais Rohan - also known as City Hall, in Bordeaux, France (any French Wikipedians out there??)
- Working on this one too. hopefully have something in a week or so. Crazynorvegian 13:28, 21 October 2006 (UTC)
St Mark's Clock in Venice For my entry on this famous clock - I haven't yet managed to get to Venice and i can't find any PD or common images of it. Nothing in commons. A close-up of the dial as it is today would be nice...! Cormullion 22:47, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

one's been added - thanks! Cormullion 09:28, 10 October 2006 (UTC)

For Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, could someone in Vancouver get a picture of the CBC Regional Broadcast Centre at 700 Hamilton Street? -- Denelson 83 23:38, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
For Alexander Duncan McRae I would like to find photos of Hycroft, the house he built at 1486 McRae Ave, Vancouver (like these ones) which should be easy enough for someone in Vancouver. Would also like one of Eaglecrest Lodge (like this one) at Qualicum Beach, British Columbia which burned down years ago. KenWalker | Talk 02:55, 2 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Site plans

Olympia, Greece would really benefit from a site plan showing the locations of the key buildings and monuments. There are plenty on the web [6], [7], [8], [9], but of course none of these are free use (although no. 2 looks suspiciously likes it stolen from my A-level textbook). Anybody fancy having a go recreating one of these for me?Madmedea 23:31, 16 February 2007 (UTC)
