Corrections & rights requests

Tell us about an error, a missing credit or a rights question. Rights holders can grant permission or ask for an image or record to be removed.

How the editors handle messages

Every message is logged and read by an editor.
Corrections are checked against the source record and, where possible, a second published source. Changes are noted on the record with an editor's note.
Removal requests from rights holders are handled first; once confirmed, the image or record is withdrawn or replaced.
Permissions are recorded against the images concerned so the credit line can be updated.

Helpful details to include

The address of the page (open the record and copy it from your browser, or use the link on the record page).
For corrections: the correct information and where it is published.
For rights questions: who took the photograph or owns the rights, and how you would like it credited.
