  • In terms of Has a descriptive, informative and complete file description I'd like to see a clear transcription, translation, and explanation.
  • In terms of licencing, there are two author-life-based expiries, of which only the latest is needed (can't think what the other adds). The surrounding "I, the copyright holder of this work, hereby publish it under the following licences" box doesn't make much sense: you can't publish something under an expired licence – unless you specifically want to recognise your own work on the file (not sure what jurisdiction you're under, even less so whether it's a sweat-of-the-brow one).
If those points are corrected I'd be happy to support, although "underrepresentation" plays no part in that decision. Grandiose (me, talk, contribs) 18:08, 23 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
What's missing? Contextual information on war bonds?
  • For the third point, I'm in Indonesia (no idea how that works for sweat-of-the-brow) and I release the image as PD (since I don't really care for sweat-of-the-brow copyrights, as a Canadian). As the image was first published in Austro-Hungary, I decided to play it safe and give both a US and PD-75 tag.  — Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:06, 23 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, some links to the government agency (or whatever it is) offering the war bonds and to the war bonds itself would be useful - extra to the translation because you typically don't link in quotes. Ont eh licencing, you aren't achieving what you think you are. If you want to release whatver rights you have, a PD-self tag is essential; label this "restoration" or something to make it clear. The life+75 tag subsumes the life+70 one; all countries for whom 70 years is enough 75 years is also sufficient; get rid of the latter. The "you may select" outline should also go; there's nothing to choose, the file is in the public domain. It's really designed for dual GFDL/CC licences.

Tweaked the description; hope that's OK; otherwise, much better and happy to support. Grandiose (me, talk, contribs) 18:10, 24 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks Crisco 1492. Question is, should the name of the file be changed or the English-language translation inserted somehow? Buckshot06 (talk) 02:14, 25 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
