Wikipedia:Requested pictures

Have an article that needs a picture? Add it to the list!

Wikipedia can only accept photographs and pictures that are public domain, or that can be copyrighted compatibly with the GNU Free Documentation License. The simplest way to ensure that our pictures aren't going to get the project sued is to make them ourselves and explicitly PD or GFDL them... since there are Wikipedians all over the world, there's a decent chance that someone with a camera can get access to many places and objects.

Before posting please check the public domain image resources and the more general public domain resources.

The following articles have had pictures requested; if you have such a picture, please upload it, add it to the article, remove it from the list, then show the world your good deed at: Wikipedia:Fulfilled picture requests.

• Anatomy (for many of things in anatomy, it'd be good to have a reasonably hi-res picture, that labels and that could be added to, then this would be shrunk, saved and uploaded.)
  • Hand, back of hand and palm, with fingers a natural space apart, and nicely trimmed nails :-) leave a message:Tristanb
