A simple question with what might be a complicated answer - is this article ready to take to FAC? Thanks for any constructive comments! Mujinga (talk) 18:30, 26 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Well, I certainly hope so, since no one's said otherwise in nearly two months. I have my doubts about [1]. The file says it was published before 1929, but there's no actual publication info. The source isn't terribly helpful either (no accession # or anything). You'll probably want to track down the original source of [2] and [3] too. They're both sourced to a recent book that presumably tells us the original source. -- asilvering (talk) 18:10, 16 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

hi @Asilvering and thanks for taking a look! i'll hopefully have time in the next few days to investigate your comments :) Mujinga (talk) 13:38, 17 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

actually I've decided my vacation starts today so I'll take a look now. i see we are talking images so i imagine this won't be resolved immediately.

• 1 = https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Lucy_Parsons_behind_bars_1915.jpg

This one I have removed from the article since I don't think there's a need for a drawing of the 1915 arrested Parsons to sit beside a photograph of her taken during the same arrest. The commons details say it's in the Labadie Collection, but i couldn't find it - it is on p183 of Freedom, Equality & Solidarity – Writings & Speeches, 1878–1937.

• 2 = https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Lucy_Parsons_anarchist_picnic.png

this one is indeed on p27 of Freedom, Equality & Solidarity – Writings & Speeches, 1878–1937 as stated, but that book doesn't appear to give any info for its pictures. I've removed it

• 3 = https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Lucy_Parsons_portrait_engraving_2.png

likewise this one is on p26 of Freedom, Equality & Solidarity – Writings & Speeches, 1878–1937 with no copyright info. Also removed

thanks asilvering, that was a handy prod to improve the images, which weren't FA ready. i've removed the three you queried, plus another one, since it seems hard to verify the publication date on them. i've also added a nicer infobox image. Mujinga (talk) 17:08, 17 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
