Image[edit]

I have uploaded an image from the Postimees web site. As the photo was clearly made before the Estonian independence I think {{PD-Russia}} is appropriate, still some Estonian related copyright tag would be nice. Is his Tartu colleague Marie Oberstiga notable?

The article is in clear need to be copyedited by somebody with a good command of English Alex Bakharev 10:20, 23 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The name is Marie Oberst, not "Oberstiga". The latter means "with Oberst" in Estonian, in comitative case (see Estonian grammar). As for the copyright tags, {{PD-Estonia70}} might be best. -- Sander Säde 10:45, 23 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Also, here is a better/bigger version of that image - [1]. -- Sander Säde 11:17, 23 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, all fixed. I have not noticed the name was fixed so fast, thought I have copy-pasted it incorrectly. Thanks for the corrections Alex Bakharev 14:51, 23 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
