[edit] License tagging for Image:Namchabarwensis.JPG
Thanks for uploading Image:Namchabarwensis.JPG. Wikipedia gets hundreds of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.
For more information on using images, see the following pages:
This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 16:07, 21 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:Namchabarwensis2.JPG
Thanks for uploading Image:Namchabarwensis2.JPG. 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, or ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Pagrashtak 16:48, 21 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Hello
Yes, I am Egil J. Skarning, and I am the owner of http://www.impatiens.biz/
The http://www.impatiens.biz/home.php link is just the half of the site, because of some indexing problems, and will be solved in a few days.
And, as you can see on this website, I am using the same emailadress abc@impatiens.biz as on Wikipedia.
I am an educated gardener and hybridizer of the Balsaminaceae family
Greetings from Norway
Egil
