== Free pictures ==

I've updated the images so they are in line with policies. Even though they do nicely show the helium balloons and the K9-cart, they are probably replaceable with various freely-licensed images as the above discussion indicates that Willy is still alive. However, as that discussion also notes, he is quite old now, so, no offence intended, if we want a freely-licensed picture, we should try and get one pretty quickly, otherwise the book covers (or a publicity photo) will be all we will ever be able to use, unless someone wants to write to the owner and ask for freely-licensed pictures. It is possible that no pictures exist of the helium balloon incidents, and that was the first book, so that book cover picture may be justifiable. The other one can probably be replaced by a free picture of Willy with his K9-cart. If this is disputed, pleas take to ], rather than restoring the tags. Thanks. ] (]) 10:13, 2 April 2008 (UTC)

Free pictures

I've updated the images so they are in line with policies. Even though they do nicely show the helium balloons and the K9-cart, they are probably replaceable with various freely-licensed images as the above discussion indicates that Willy is still alive. However, as that discussion also notes, he is quite old now, so, no offence intended, if we want a freely-licensed picture, we should try and get one pretty quickly, otherwise the book covers (or a publicity photo) will be all we will ever be able to use, unless someone wants to write to the owner and ask for freely-licensed pictures. It is possible that no pictures exist of the helium balloon incidents, and that was the first book, so that book cover picture may be justifiable. The other one can probably be replaced by a free picture of Willy with his K9-cart. If this is disputed, pleas take to WP:IfD, rather than restoring the tags. Thanks.
