Virginia Informer newspaper image

For as much as I know about general Wikipedia standards, photos/pictures is one area that is (IMO) very confusing and difficult to learn what it is that they look for. The only 100% fool-proof method of uploading images that I've ever personally done (which I do into Wikimedia, not Wikipedia) is by physically taking the photographs myself because at least then they're non-copyrighted and available (by me, the author of the work) for public domain use. That all being said, your best bet with the Informer newspaper image is to re-upload it (under the exact same file name and then say "yes" when it asks if you want to replace the current image) but use The Flat Hat's image description/licensing/rationale/summary as the template for the VA Informer one. Just change the words of "Flat Hat" to "Virginia Informer" (etc) and it appears you should be ok, since the Flat Hat picture has now been used for many months without a problem. Sorry I can't really explain in technical terms what to do — Wikipedia's kind of hard-nosed when it comes to photo monitoring and free use rationale. -Jrcla2 ^{(talk)(contribs)} 04:35, 15 October 2008 (UTC)

Informer photo and political affiliation

I think the photo issue is fixed, but please let me know if its not. The Virginia Informer does not list a "political" affiliation, as it is a 501c3. Political means partisan, not ideological, so that category was inappropriate.
