I uploaded that a while ago. I stand by my interpretation at the time that my action was legal and appropriate.>>

Would you be willing to load a picture without giving credit to from where you took it?

You asked: "Should you be able to take my photograph (without my consent) and post it to Commons?" I provided an instance of a photograph I copied without the photographer's consent and uploaded to commons. Which is what you wanted. Whether I provided a link back to the site doesn't affect the legality of the action.

I have a feeling that you're changing the terms of the question on us. Nowhere in the original did you mention credit. You mentioned consent, not credit. If Tracy Poff did not ask permission, then she meets your original criteria.

Why would you do that? I mean is it not in scholarly interest to know the sources?

I don't think we need *consent* to upload stuff that is in the pd... However crediting the person or source of the image should always be done just as part of our scholarly ethics.
