Yes, it must still be there. I know the page you're talking about, but I've only bumped into it about once in 4 years. And the tendency is to think that anyone who monitors that page is going to work for the good of the project. > I personally don't like the idea of requesting or requiring a > wikipedian to upload images of their source.

And even then TO PROVE IT they would have to have the cover of the book rather than just the page: a page in itself would tell you little. Dya see what I mean? I could have a scan of a printed page saying "1 million jews died in the holocaust". I could scan in the cover of a different book. And its frontespiece. Again, though, I don't get the impression anyone's that bothered about fucking WP up. _______________________________________________ WikiEN-l mailing list [email protected] To unsubscribe from this mailing list, visit: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikien-l
