Marion Leane Smith

[edit]

Created by Nikkimaria (talk). Self-nominated at 16:33, 11 November 2018 (UTC).

General: Article is new enough and long enough
Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
QPQ: Done.

Overall: @Nikkimaria: 15% copyvio score but that's because names and quotes. QPQ done, article long enough, sourced, neutral enough. Looks good to go. Before I pass this, though, just wondering if:
1. This image of her and her husband is dated 1930 in Trinidad, and would be in the public domain, so idk if you'd like to include it.
2. Her exact death date is available, should it be mentioned somewhere? Juxlos (talk) 21:30, 12 November 2018 (UTC)

@Juxlos: Thanks for the review; I've added the precise date of death. Based on the source you link, that's an archival photo - what leads you to believe it's now in the public domain? Nikkimaria (talk) 02:19, 13 November 2018 (UTC)
The Template:PD-Trinidad-and-Tobago gives 75 years after creation for anonymous - so it's expired in 2015 at best. Juxlos (talk) 07:06, 13 November 2018 (UTC)
@Juxlos: But that would mean the copyright was restored in the US, and US status matters for both local and Commons upload. Nikkimaria (talk) 12:52, 13 November 2018 (UTC)
@Nikkimaria: I see - oh well, I guess it's just a pass without images. Juxlos (talk) 13:01, 13 November 2018 (UTC)
