Reference images are development-only material: licensing is not a gate for local private use, so they are simply never committed. Art/reference/ is now gitignored; the licensed status of anything shipped is still recorded in THIRD_PARTY_NOTICES.md. Adds Tools/commons_fetch.py, which fetches Wikimedia Commons imagery by search or exact title and writes a provenance sidecar, plus Docs/reference-notes-hollywood.md recording what each local set is evidence for.

Reference photography (local only, not committed, not shipped)
Reference photographs are not part of this repository. They live in the gitignored Art/reference/ tree on the development machine, are used only for internal, private development, and are never built into a build or shipped. .gitignore enforces this; nothing under Art/reference/ may be added, staged, or committed.

What the images are used for, what they are evidence for, and the block's recorded measurements live in Docs/reference-notes-hollywood.md. That document is committed; the images are not.
Rules that still apply, because they are about shipped output rather than local working material:
- No reference photograph may be shipped, baked into a texture, or distributed. If a shipped asset would otherwise derive from one, that is a licensing decision to be made before the release, recorded here.
- Venue lettering, signage artwork, and trademarks are separate rights from the photograph. Copying a façade's proportions is not the same as reproducing its signage.
- A reference image whose provenance cannot be found locally must not be used at all.
Assets
No shipped 3D, texture, or audio assets exist yet. Add a row per asset category with author, source, licence, and redistribution status before the first content commit.
