==User talk page archiving==
Hello, EF5,
Your User talk page says, {{tq|This user does not mind criticism}} so here is some. You seem to archive messages on your User talk page after only 24 hours! This is much too fast. I think you should leave at least a week's worth of messages if not a month's worth up on your User talk page. This would allow editors who left you a message to not have to go into your talk page archives to see what your response was. It is also not advised to add new messages to archived pages so by archiving a discussion you are cutting off possible new comments to it. It also would allow you more time to respond to messages as I can't imagine that you edit 7 days a week. I realize that you might like a blank talk page but I think that the benefit to you and other editors outweighs the cost of having a full User talk page. This is just a suggestion but I hope you consider it. <span style="font-family:Papyrus; color:#800080;">[[User:Liz|'''''L'''''iz]]</span> <sup style="font-family: Times New Roman; color: #006400;">[[Special:Contributions/Liz|'''''Read!''''']] [[User talk:Liz|'''''Talk!''''']]</sup> 06:41, 22 December 2024 (UTC)
:{{done}}, thanks for the feedback. I used to have a very slow archiving system, so I guess I went a bit overboard. :) [[User:EF5|<span style="color:#A188FC;">'''E'''</span>]]<sub>[[User talk:EF5|<span style="color:#A188FC;">'''F'''</span>]]</sub><sup>[[User:EF5/Creations|<span style="color:#A188FC;">'''5'''</span>]]</sup> 13:25, 22 December 2024 (UTC)

== Your [[WP:Good articles|GA]] nomination of [[1925 Tri-State tornado]] ==
The article [[1925 Tri-State tornado]] you nominated as a [[Wikipedia:Good article nominations|good article]] has been placed on hold [[File:Symbol wait.svg|20px|link=]]. The article is close to meeting the [[WP:GA?|good article criteria]], but there are some minor changes or clarifications needing to be addressed. If these are fixed within 7 days, the article will pass; otherwise it may fail. See [[Talk:1925 Tri-State tornado]] and [[Talk:1925 Tri-State tornado/GA1]] for issues which need to be addressed. <!-- Template:GANotice result=hold --> <!-- Template:GANotice --> <small>Message delivered by [[User:ChristieBot|ChristieBot]], on behalf of [[User:Lee Vilenski|Lee Vilenski]]</small> -- [[User:Lee Vilenski|Lee Vilenski]] ([[User talk:Lee Vilenski|talk]]) 16:44, 22 December 2024 (UTC)
== PD-Automated ==
Hey EF5. I noticed you put a dashcam video of a fire tornado on your user page under PD-Automated - I really don't think that the license is valid. The description of PD-Automated states "pre-positioned" as in mounted CCTV, but this clearly wasn't. I'll also note that if the PD-Automated license there is valid, then free media for [[2024 Elkhorn-Blair tornado]] and numerous others becomes available as a significant amount of storm chasers use dashcams - but they probably wouldn't be too happy having their footage distributed for free. Just letting you know. The full legal hammer hasn't swung one way or the other for PD-Automated but I can say with some certainty that dashcam likely wouldn't be on the "free" side. [[User:Departure–|Departure–]] ([[User talk:Departure–|talk]]) 23:17, 22 December 2024 (UTC)
:It's produced by CalFire, so if not PD-automated then PD-CalFire.

:{{reply|Departure–}} Based on some discussion I had on the Commons Copyright discussion board a while ago, the PD-Automated tag applies to any pre-positioned camera where the human had no direct intention of captured what was captured. For example, the very much pre-positioned camera by [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=al8yTiCVfro Max Olsen before Hurricane Ian] does not qualify under it, despite being a 100% non-human operated, pre-positioned camera, since the intention of it was to capture Hurricane Ian's footage. [[:File:Dash cam footage of the 2024 Lincoln tornado.webm]] on the other head, despite being a dashcam, would qualify under PD-automated as the intention of the dashcam (actually even confirmed by the RS media it was published by) was for insurance purposes for a company driver. I.e., the dash cam was for potential car insurance fraud incidences. It was not pre-positioned to capture a tornado. The PD-auto is when it involved a non-human operated camera where what was captured was not directly intended. Non-moving CCTV is always PD-automated since anything that happens (tornado, earthquake, robbery) is not the "human intended" capture for it. You might think a store CCTV would be intended to catch robbers and that would be correct. However, that ''specific'' robbery was not the intention. That is why Max Olsen's camera doesn't qualify but the dashcam for the Lincoln tornado would. Olsen placed it specifically for the storm surge so the intention was to capture exactly what was captured. I am not sure which file you are talking about, but hopefully this explanation helps.

::It is a helicopter video of a fire tornado, and I believe that the camera was there for the intention of capturing fire shots, but not this specific fire, so I’m leaning towards pd automated applying here.
