File:GeorgieandWolly.JPG

Hello, Amandajm As I understand it, you painted this yourself. Over ten years ago I transferred it to Commons, but now someone feels it is derivative and should be deleted. I invite you as the original author to comment at Commons:Commons:Deletion requests/File:GeorgieandWolly.JPG. Cheers, --SVTCobra 17:01, 16 September 2019 (UTC)

Hi, SVTCobra, I don't know where the request has gone.
The image is not derivative. The child in the picture is my niece. The Gollywog is one that I made myself, as I did for many years, along with other soft toys, at a time when it was not generally considered offensive to make or own Golliwogs. They were particularly popular with boys because they were generally the only type of boy doll that boys were allowed.

Yes, I got the link wrong it needed a double :Commons ... anyway, I see you found it. Thanks and sorry. --SVTCobra 19:25, 16 September 2019 (UTC)
