or older/newer version of the Creative Commons licenses (such as cc-by v3). Flickr uses those two licenses (at the moment) as choices for all image uploaders. Howie, in that situation, uploaded his images under a license that couldn't be used (by-nc-nd). He didn't want to upload them under by-sa or

I have responded to the issues identified - do I now delete this "Did You Know problem" section? What is the process for telling Art LaPella to re-visit my nomination? I am hoping he is watching my talk page.

Is it possible you have some other photos of Monte Cervantes that you would be willing to share and perhaps upload to Knowledge Commons? The only two categories of license that Knowledge can use are:
