New, long and colourful article. Looks neutral and sources look good. The last paragraph in the first section refers to sourced info below, which I think is acceptable, but it wouldn't hurt to add inline citations there too. No copyright issues found - the quoted descriptions should be OK and the images are motivated and have fair-use rationales. The hook is interesting and within the character limit. QPQ is done. Should be good to go, well done! Ffranc (talk) 11:14, 21 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Definition[edit]

In this context, what is a district? It's not defined here or in the section to which district tartan redirects. I don't suppose there's a "clan district" (again, used but undefined in the target article) outside Scotland, since the Scottish clan system didn't exist on the other side of the world. 175.39.61.121 (talk) 19:22, 25 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Copyright[edit]

Do we know for a fact that copyright pertains to all of these? I notice that the images used on this page are, in every single case, flagged as non-free, yet they generally lack any information on a purported copyright holder (designers are listed, but there's no indication of a copyright claim). SRT's own listing of these tartans shows almost all of them (I did see two exceptions) not listed as copyright or otherwise restricted. — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼 16:49, 7 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
