Zonosaurus madagascariensis or not
Hi BrokenSphere! I have seen that you uploaded pictures of a lizard that you named Zonosaurus madagascariensis. Are you sure that it shows the right thing? If you look at the category, you will see two other pictures showing that species and you will notice that they look totally different. I just checked the description of Zonosaurus madagascariensis and the animal on you picture does not fit it. --Axel Strauß (talk) 12:40, 23 April 2009 (UTC)
- Hi,
- This lizard at the California Academy of Sciences was described as the Madagascar Plated Lizard and as Zonosaurus sp. I was also puzzled when the pics of the lizard in the category looked totally different from what I saw, but decided to categorize them as such per the en Wikipedia entry. Do you know or think that it's possible that this lizard may look different depending on what habitat it has per that article, or would they all tend to look somewhat the same? If you have suggestions for better categorization, by all means let me know! Thanks. --BrokenSphere 19:09, 23 April 2009 (UTC) pasted here from my discussion --Axel Strauß (talk) 10:29, 24 April 2009 (UTC)
- Hi BrokenSphere! Honestly, no clue what it is. I checked the literature of Malagasy Gerrhosaurids and didn't find anything that looks like "your lizard". Zonosaurus you can recognise on a lateral longitudinal fold, that reaches from the head to the forelimb and continues all along the body. I can't see that on your picture but this may be due to the displayed details and picture resolution and sharpness. The second Malagasy genus of the Gerrhosaurids (Tracheloptychus) has the same fold but it ends at the forelimb. But I think it is none of the Tracheloptychus. --Axel Strauß (talk) 10:29, 24 April 2009 (UTC)

Initials in names
This to inform you that on Commons, we avoid middle names and even more abbreviated initials. Although common in the en:wikipedia, in an international multi-lingual context, this way of naming corresponds better with its effective use and simplifies significantly, including the search abilities. Enjoy the good work. --Foroa (talk) 08:17, 10 May 2009 (UTC)
Just used one of your images
Dear Broken Sphere,
I just used one of your images -- the farm in Yunnan, China -- to illustrate a link to a story about Chinese agriculture and water use.
The links is: http://carbon-based-ghg.blogspot.com/2009/05/pay-farmers-to-halt-irrigation-to-ease.html
Carbon Based is a linkblog about climate change adaptation.
Many thanks for making this evocative image available.

Hi. Why did you remove the "Males with microphones" category from a couple of images? Obama is a male and he is shown with a microphone. This category will help anyone who want a male with microphone photo, including Obama's. It still lacks many photos, but it is a good step, I guess --OsamaK 06:32, 2 July 2009 (UTC)
Tip: Categorizing images
Thanks a lot for contributing to the Wikimedia Commons! Here's a tip to make your uploads more useful: Why not add some categories to describe them? This will help more people to find and use them.
Here's how:
1) If you're using the UploadWizard, you can add categories to each file when you describe it. Just click "more options" for the file and add the categories which make sense:
2) You can also pick the file from your list of uploads, edit the file description page, and manually add the category code at the end of the page.
[[Category:Category name]]
For example, if you are uploading a diagram showing the orbits of comets, you add the following code:
[[Category:Astronomical diagrams]]
[[Category:Comets]]
This will make the diagram show up in the categories "Astronomical diagrams" and "Comets".
When picking categories, try to choose a specific category ("Astronomical diagrams") over a generic one ("Illustrations").
Thanks again for your uploads! More information about categorization can be found in Commons:Categories, and don't hesitate to leave a note on the help desk.BotMultichillT 05:42, 9 July 2009 (UTC)

Hello!
Thank you for donating images to the Wikimedia Commons. You have uploaded some images in the past with the license {{PD}}. While this was a license acceptable in the early days of Wikimedia, since January 2006, this license has been deprecated and since October 2008 no new uploads with this license was allowed.
The license on older images should be replaced with a better and more specific license/permissions and you can help by checking the images and adding {{PD-self}} if you are the author or one of the other templates that you can see in the template on the image page.
Thank you for your help. If you need help feel free to ask at Commons talk:Licensing or contact User:Zscout370.

Image use
Hi BrokenSphere
I've been asked by some non-wikimediasavvy friends of mine to contact you about one of your images. They'd very much like to use File:Central Battery 64 pound RML gun no. 1 servicing equipment HKMCD.JPG on an information panel at an old fortification on the Isle of Wight, that used to mount its artillery accessories in a similar way. There wouldn't appear to be particularly good example of wall affixed parts in the UK nowadays, but your image is close enough to the original features apparently. The image would probably be cropped and sized to roughly 10cm long, and appear on a wall mounted, freely accessible information board in a country park. They're more than happy to credit you accordingly and wanted to ask you first (hence my role in this). One thing they have said - all the other images they've credited are "Courtesy of (actual name)", and they wondered if you'd mind this instead of © BrokenSphere / Wikimedia Commons. I've already explained the wikiworld though, so its no dealbreaker! I've never set up an email account, but I'll watch your talkpage, or feel free to respond on mine.

- Not that I'm aware of I'm afraid, but there is a bit of info here. There's also a blog that a quick google will uncover, but its really only for the attractions now based in the fort rather than an in depth site. However, I think these panels are possibly the start of a bit of an overhaul, so there might be something better soon. I can certainly suggest using the image online in future as well, but can't guarantee it I'm afraid. I'd better quickly point out that this will be 1 of about 10 images on a wall mounted panel, some of which will probably be ultimately more usable for the fort's history. There might be a book in the future though.... I'm trying to think of a good way of linking your image in somehow though, any ideas? Ranger Steve (talk) 20:16, 14 July 2010 (UTC)
Re:Boston Red Sox at Oakland Athletics 2010-07-21 category
Hi there.
You said "Major League Baseball by year categories, especially from 2005 on, have too many images," I can understand. But, Boston Red Sox at Oakland Athletics 2010-07-21 category has only 4 photos when I confirmed. Only 4. I think that one-game category is inappropriate because it focuses too much on specific things while over 2,400 MLB games hold in one year. It is too specific to find files.
You created several categories that focuses on a team in a specific year. It is a good idea. But it is regrettable that your contributions is unfinished. When you started Category:2010 Tampa Bay Rays season, you should categorize all Rays-related medias taken in 2010 before creating other team's category. Sorry for my poor English, thanks. --UCinternational (talk) 03:20, 25 July 2010 (UTC)

I suppose. You could also just make it a separate category. This may especially be useful where things like the "birth year" categories are concerned, since it's easier for someone to understand who was born when if they're in their own cats. For my part, when I uploaded photos that included Jonathan and Joshua Luna or Neal Adams and Josh Adams in the same photo, I still put them in separate cats.

- Okay. Nightscream (talk) 19:46, 3 August 2010 (UTC)
- Awesome. It looks great. I switched out the photo in their Wikipedia article with that new one, and changed the Wendy Pini pic in the collage in the comic book creator article. Thanks. :-) Nightscream (talk) 03:26, 4 August 2010 (UTC)
That's not Agnieszka Radwańska...
Hello,
I've just found four pictures of Agnieszka Radwańska added to Wikimedia Commons by you. Problem: on these pictures, it's not Agnieszka Radwańska, but her sister Urszula... Thanks to modify what needs to be changed ;)
I've already changed categories and descriptions for these pics. By the way, nice shots :)

- I'm absolutely sure that the woman on the pictures is Urszula Radwańska (Agnieszka isn't blond-haired, whereas her sister is, for example). There are some other shots on Wikimedia of the two sisters, so you can easily verify this player's identity. I know that Agnieszka Radwańska often travels with her sister Urszula when she plays a tournament, so it can explain why Urszula was present in Stanford (no doubt she was training because she was back on the courts the week after).
- Here are pictures of the two Radwańskas:

Urszula Radwańska

... and here, Agnieszka.
Here is another picture of Agnieszka, on the Bank of the West Classic's website: Click here. Agnieszka reached semifinals of the tournament, but Urszula didn't play, I think she was just training on the pictures.
