Does this book fall under the criteria of public domain?
[edit]Hello Mr.@Jeff G.! I ask for your help as a new member. Does this book fall under the criteria of public domain? Probably published in 1911. Can I upload images from it to the site? Thanks for the answer! Wildvepr (talk) 15:31, 27 September 2024 (UTC)
- @Wildvepr: Yes to both, use {{PD-US-expired}}. Everything is consistent with 1911 (or December 1910), including the last reference (December 1910) near the bottom of page 434 and accession to the Yale University, Cushing/Whitney Medical Library in 1911. — 🇺🇦Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 22:14, 27 September 2024 (UTC)

Ban Warning
[edit]Is there a particular reason I'm being threatened with a commons ban two and a half years since my last (questionably) copyright-violating image deletion? I won't deny that I am fallible/not a copyright expert, but I wasn't aware that 2 minor infractions and 2 cases I didn't feel like arguing out of over 200 valid uploads was grounds for being banned without warning. -Blervis (talk) 01:23, 2 October 2024 (UTC)
- @User:Blervis: Perhaps {{Fcs}} would be more to your liking. I thought the disappearance of five of your previous unfree uploads would have been sufficient warning about a potential block. Sorry for the delay. — 🇺🇦Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 14:35, 2 October 2024 (UTC)
- ==Your message==
- I have been a wikipedian for almost 20 years and I made almost half a million edits, but yours is the first time I meet someone who threats me with a ban for mistaking a procedure because "Warning: such edits are not tolerated and have led to account blocks, as "We cannot work here with people who are not willing to follow our procedures, in particular for deletion requests.". I don't know who the "you" are and why you think "you cannot work" with whomever "does not follow your procedures". What I know is that we wikipedians follow the rule of "always assume good faith" and help each other in case of mistakes. Also, if a procedure proves too complicate to follow and people get mistaken with it, the solution was always finding a way to make the procedure simpler, not to ban people to refuse to follow your intimations. If you want professional work, simply pay people for a professional performance. Had I been a novice, your attitude could had simply discouraged me. Please don't repeat your threats. Ban is the extreme measure for proved vandals, not the way to show your attitude in front of other people's mistakes. Thank you. My best wishes. User:G.dallorto (talk) 10:47, 9 October 2024 (UTC)
