Pimmit Hills

edit

Hi Greenmoss, I saw your additions to Pimmit Hills, Virginia, "the area is known for its population of large Oak, Poplar, and Cedar trees" - this strikes me as a rather unusual mix of trees to plant, are you sure of the identifications? - Quercus I can understand, but Populus is notoriously bad as an urban tree due to its invasive root system (many communities ban planting it), and Cedrus hasn't been widely planted in the US until very recent years due to low availability - MPF 13:56, 22 Nov 2004 (UTC)

Pimmit Hills

No, I'm not really sure of the species. I've since read that we have Tulip trees instead of Poplars. I should probably change the Wiki entry again.

Thanks for checking! I can do the change if you like - MPF 10:13, 6 Dec 2004 (UTC)

Calabasa

edit

You didn't leave your signature on my talk page, so at first I wasn't sure who was writing to me. Chang is the Wade-Giles transliteration of my name. The pinyin transliteration is Zhang. I removed the category:vegetable link by accident. I double checked the differences between calabash and calabasa (calabaza) using www.dictionary.com plus some additional sites that I searched from google. Allentchang 01:23, 10 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Note that the correct word in Spanish is "Calabaza". "Calabasa" doesn't even appear on Spanish dictionaries.

Thanks for uploading Image:Karte Montevideo MKL1888 kl.png. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy).

The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Wikipedia are open content, public domain, and fair use. Find the appropriate template in Wikipedia:Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this: {{TemplateName}}.

Please signify the copyright information on any other images you have uploaded or will upload. Remember that images without this important information can be deleted by an administrator. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me. Thank you. CLW 13:41, 18 January 2006 (UTC)Reply

Post-nasal Drip

edit

Greenmoss, I left a talk comment om the Post-nasal Drip page. Please read. The gist of it is that mucus does not *generally speaking* come from the sinuses. -- Derkire (talk) 21:52, 24 April 2010 (UTC)Reply

File permission problem with File:Calabasa fruit.jpg

edit
 

Thanks for uploading File:Calabasa fruit.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file agreed to license it under the given license.

If you created this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

  • make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
  • Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read the Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Kelly hi! 05:17, 17 October 2011 (UTC)Reply

Please claim your upload(s): File:Calabasa leaf.jpg

edit

Hi, This image was seemingly uploaded prior to current image polices, Thank you.

However, as part of ongoing efforts to ensure all media on English Wikipedia is correctly licensed and attributed it would be appreciated if you were able to confirm, that it was your own work, by marking it as {{own}}, amending the {{information}} added by a third party, and by changing the license to an appropriate "self" variant. You can also add |claimed=yes to the {{Media by uploader}} or {{Presumed self}} tag(s) if present to indicate that you've acknowledged the image, and license shown (and updated the {{information}} where appropriate).

IF you have other uploads, please consider "claiming" them in a similar manner, You can find a list of files you have created here.

This will assist those reviewing the many many "free" images on commons that have not yet been transferred to Commons. ShakespeareFan00 (talk) 14:07, 18 September 2017 (UTC)Reply

File source problem with File:Calabasa leaf.jpg

edit
 

Thank you for uploading File:Calabasa leaf.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. Please add this information by editing the image description page.

If the necessary information is not added within the next seven days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

Please refer to the image use policy to learn what images you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. Please also check any other files you have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a list of your uploads. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. CptViraj (📧) 16:19, 8 September 2019 (UTC)Reply
