• Is photography really the best way to describe the paintings of the AAPC activities? Looks like they'd be licensed public domain as a painting, too, but it seems like a description of a painting would be better than a description of a photograph.

Added "A painting of" to the description of paintings within the article. Would that suffice?--Catlemur (talk) 21:54, 26 May 2020 (UTC)

• • @Catlemur: - Sorry, I wasn't very clear. I was referring to the licensing information on Commons. Hog Farm (talk) 02:49, 27 May 2020 (UTC)

@Hog Farm: I removed all the paintings, perhaps I will sort the licensing some other day.--Catlemur (talk) 07:35, 27 May 2020 (UTC)
