DYK for Muskan Ahirwar[edit]
On 22 January 2024, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Muskan Ahirwar, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that nine-year-old Muskan Ahirwar started a library for the children in her slum that now contains more than 3,000 books? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Muskan Ahirwar. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Muskan Ahirwar), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

- Hi 1AmNobody24, thanks for letting me know, there's a license statement in the Sources section on the article showing it is under a compatible license. Often text from UN publications get flagged because text from them is widely copied to other websites online. John Cummings (talk) 07:01, 26 January 2024 (UTC)
- Yeah, I marked it as a false positive. But still, thanks to your edit summary, it was easy to see why it was hit and check that it was attributed correctly. Nobody (talk) 07:05, 26 January 2024 (UTC)

Image license question[edit]
John, you seem to have added two FAO stats images, File:Production_Of_Cereals_(2021).svg and File:Main Traded Cereals, Top Importers And Exporters (Quantities, 2021).svg to Cereal, and I believe you add them and similar images regularly to other articles. You've stated on Commons that the license is CC BY-SA 3.0 IGO Deed. However, FAO's policy states Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 3.0 IGO (CC BY-NC- SA 3.0 IGO), which is not sufficient for Commons. Which is correct?

- Hi Chiswick Chap, thanks, yeah, sorry its confusing, I need to find a way to make the licensing more clear. I'm working with them on licensing currently for their content. At the moment we have a work around where I'm helping them upload the publications to Commons and then we can share the graphics like these ones. If you follow the second link under 'source' for these files you'll see that they've does a VRT permission for the publication which includes these graphics. John Cummings (talk) 01:00, 8 February 2024 (UTC)
- Many thanks, I have clarified these two images by writing
- |permission=VRT Ticket from FAO for whole document is on File:World Food and Agriculture - Statistical Yearbook 2023.pdf, it is ticket number 2021120710007605.
- This makes the situation immediately comprehensible to any GAN or FAC reviewer, and should probably be the standard rubric on every image from the document, it's just a cut-and-paste job. Chiswick Chap (talk) 08:32, 8 February 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks very much Chiswick Chap, I'll do the others. Hopefully they will open license more content on their website in future, lets see. John Cummings (talk) 10:22, 8 February 2024 (UTC)
