DYK
editI hope there are no issues with nominating this for Did you know, which will hopefully mean this appears on the main page? Thanks, Matty.007 17:04, 29 March 2014 (UTC)
- Ah, Pigsonthewing had already done it. Thanks, Matty.007 18:52, 29 March 2014 (UTC)
Pictures
editThere are some images of Garland online (FindAGrave has some, for example); it would be good to determine whether any are out of copyright. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 22:39, 29 March 2014 (UTC)
- OK, someone neat me to that.... Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 22:45, 29 March 2014 (UTC)
- (edit conflict) Those listed at [0=makerString:Garland (Capt)&query= here] by the IWM are credited to Garland himself and so are all out of copyright. I had already added his portrait to the article. There are a number that might be useful for other articles - Dumelow (talk) 22:48, 29 March 2014 (UTC)
