Image licenses that read "BlahBlahBlahBlah...."

Joe, a couple of the current image upload options end up with a license that reads "BlahBlahBlahBlahBlah....". Is it the intent that those options will someday be revised to some actual license? Or what? Milton Beychok 19:16, 8 November 2008 (UTC)

Yes, probably. We should make a list of which options produce that result. I can probably do something about it after I get my thesis turned in this Friday. --Joe Quick 00:14, 9 November 2008 (UTC)

Here are the file upload options that use "BlahBlahBlahBlahBlah...." as the license:

• Some other internet source that features re-usable media
• Some book, newspaper, or other print publication, as a scan or screen capture
• Somewhere else, but its copyright has expired, or I think it may have
• I am an author and need to make a fair use (fair dealing) claim
• I am an editor and need to make a fair use (fair dealing) claim

I think I found all of them but I may have missed some. Regards, Milton Beychok 06:30, 9 November 2008 (UTC)

Joe, now that Stephen Ewen is back (thank goodness!), perhaps you could get together with him and get something done about those image file upload licensing options that read "BlahBlahBlahBlahBlah....". Those are sorely needed items. Regards, Milton Beychok 22:31, 14 January 2009 (UTC)

That's good news, I hadn't noticed him around yet. I actually just finished off my PhD applications and was planning to return to this in the next couple of days, so the timing is just about perfect. Now, I'm off to read your article on continuous distillation - I'll leave comments there. --Joe Quick 23:32, 14 January 2009 (UTC)

I agree with your suggestions for Continuous distillation and have implemented them. Thanks for taking the time to review the article. Milton Beychok 18:51, 15 January 2009 (UTC)

Joe, have you been able to make contact with Stephen Ewen about working on all those file upload license options that only read "BlahBlahBlahBlahBlah...."? If not, could you and Chris work together to solve that problem? Milton Beychok 22:13, 31 January 2009 (UTC)
