I am a computer programmer analyst applilcation designer at a Southern California University Institute. I have created a number of web-pages for "fun" and the love of sharing information. I embrace the idea behind Wikipedia and hope to contribute on a regular basis as time permits. Wjbean 16:07, 16 Jun 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Joan of Arc
Back in March you nominated the article for peer review. It has undergone major changes and is up for another peer review. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Peer_review/Joan_of_Arc Please come and share your response. Durova 08:09, 26 November 2005 (UTC)
- Thank you for some lovely words at Talk:Joan of Arc. It's been a long road at that article and it means a lot to read praise from an editor who walked some of the bumpier miles. Best wishes, Durova 04:09, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

- Cohesion:
- I have express permission to use this image from George T. Sassoon, the photographer, specifically for use in this article. The copyright belongs to George T. Sassoon as he is not only Siegfried's son, but the person who took this picture. It is from his private collection. He granted me permission to use it in the article about his father.

- Yes, it is tagged appropriately for images that we have permission to use only in wikipedia. Unfortunately these images may be deleted because they are not compatible with the GFDL. I know it might seem somewhat stupid to delete something that we have express permission to use, but under the terms of the GFDL everything on wikipedia can be reused. That is what is meant by a "free" encyclopedia. Also there are projects that are thinking about making a non-online version of wikipedia for distribution to the developing world etc. These projects have to be able to know what is gfdl compatible and what isn't. If you are in contact with the image creator maybe you can ask them to re-license the material? Here are some letters people have used in the past Wikipedia:Boilerplate requests for permission or you can make your own of course. Anyway, I hope that explanation makes sense and you can get then re-licensed. In reality I don't know the system for deleting images tagged like that, and I certainly don't do it, so I have no estimate on when or if that image will actually get deleted.
