Buildings

  • The Center - "This tower has one of the most spectacular and beautiful lighting schemes in the world." is said on the article talk page, yet we do not have a single decent photo of this building. People living or visiting Hong Kong, please contribute. --Siipikarja 17:13, 15 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Western Savings and Loan - A good photo of the building on Central & Osborn in Phoenix was removed due to having no license. Please add a good photo of the financial center.
  • Kashi Vishwanath Temple - an earlier photo was removed as an alleged copyvio (though there may have been an OK fair use claim). Currently the article has no photo of the building. Tempshill 23:33, 30 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • China National Petroleum Corporation headquarters - In Beijing, address: No.6 Liupukang road, Xicheng District. Aditreeslime 01:19, 9 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Red Road (flats) - very tall (31-storey) apartment blocks in Glasgow. Nice photo at [1]. The flats have also been the subject of a recent film (called Red Road) which won a prize at Cannes. It would be great if someone could get hold of a public-domain image.
  • Al-Askari Mosque - this is the mosque in Iraq that had the golden dome which was destroyed in a bombing in February 2006. BBC hosts a good Reuters photo of it at [2] but of course that's not an open source photo. Tempshill 16:56, 12 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • [[3]] I would much appreciate some good images showing mechanical details of - specifically - the Amstel Tower windmill. I can find an image showing the front of the mill, but details are not brilliant and nowhere can I find images of the mechanics of turning the cap - which are at the rear of the mill and also up on the skirt. I would also like to see better details of the doors and windows in these mills - Tower mills especially, where only the cap and sails are turned in to the wind, not the entire post.

  • Malacañang Palace — It turns out all the "PD" photos from the Philippine Government are actually noncommercial-permissiononly! As such, all three photos of Malacanang are at best fair use and at worst outright copyright violations. Anyone think they could get a shot of it to replace the ones there now? 68.39.174.238 06:21, 13 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Site plans

  • Olympia, Greece would really benefit from a site plan showing the locations of the key buildings and monuments. There are plenty on the web [8], [9], [10], [11], but of course none of these are free use (although no. 2 looks suspiciously likes it stolen from my A-level textbook). Anybody fancy having a go recreating one of these for me?Madmedea 23:31, 16 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
