Title: I wish a few players could help us out.
Post by: hitech on April 08, 2015, 11:22:14 AM

We did a lot of scanning a fixed a lot of errors on our wiki. Most were caused by missing jpg that happened during our wiki crash.

We fixed all these links by copying a token file to each missing image. This along with being able to turn the 404 error off on missing internal wiki pages allows us to enable the wiki in its real place.

Below are links to all pages and missing files.

The missing images (http://www.hitechcreations.com/wiki/wikiaimage.html)

If anyone has aces to the original image it would be help full if you would replace the existing image.

Thanks
HiTech

Okay, that problem should now be cleared.

Had a look at archive.org for old copies of the wiki, no luck.

I may be able to dig up the DHBG images for you though Sir.

Salute

I didn't save the Mossie XVI ones, though I think I remember at least 1.

If one wanted to provide alternate ones, I assume there are rules about copyright? I don't actually own any photos, however IIRC UK government / Aussie government shots from the war are ex-copyright.

Views / guidance?

If the images are no longer copyright, then there shouldn't be an issue if you don't cite your sources. I would still cite them anyway just to be on the safe side.

Hmm, apparently the image I had in mind is free to use for non-commercial purposes, not sure AH wiki qualifies...
