If you can send them the information that the Times apologized and are paying you for the use of the photo, especially if the Times published an apology (which they ought to have, though it might be on page umpteen in tiny type); that would be published proof to cite. I've no idea if there was an apology, we don't get newspapers. We were staying with some people who knew our interests and showed me the obit. I knew immediately it was my picture :-) It was on the urging of others that I contacted the Times. To be honest I wasn't really bothered, it was only after I discovered that lots of other magazines were using it and giving the wrong attribution - including one of my publisher's - that I became irritated! snip I don't consult such general sources for information. When I want to know something I rely on my own experience or consult peer reveiwed research. It's the only reliable way. It isn't just a matter of whether it bothers you. It bothered you enough for you to complain, and the misattribution upset the Times's lawyers enough so that they paid you. But if you let it stand in Wikipedia, then you might lose the right to complain about the misuse and mislabeling of that part of your work, that is, lose the copyright. The fact that the Times acknowledged your right as the creator of the photo should be enough to convince the editors at Wikipedia. It would be wise to contact the other magazines that (inadvertently) stole your work, because the more places it is misattributed, the more false support Wiki will have for claiming it wasn't your work. =Tamar |

It bothered you enough for you to complain, and the misattribution upset the Times's lawyers enough so that they paid you. I didn't actually complain :-) I mailed to say that I was surprised to see my work being used without attribution. the reply was an apology and a request for my postal address to pass to their accounts department. It was all very polite, with no heat at all. And too quick for lawyers to be involved.

What you say though doesn't enamour me to Wiki :-) Mary |
