[edit] Chemical compounds
Dear Alchie, I have to inform you that an encyclopedia article about a chemical compound should contain more information than just a formula for a reaction which produces it. If you have more information about them (but NOT copy-and-pasted contents of a website, this would violate copyright laws and Wikipedia policies), please go ahead and include them in the articles. Otherwise, they'll likely get deleted soon.

[edit] Image
I thank you for the contribution of Image:Brucine.gif, but I am afraid Wikipedia cannot use an image unless its source and copyright status are mentioned on the image description page. Could you please correct this problem?
Thank you, Mike Rosoft 17:04, 16 August 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Update
I have noted that at least some of the images you have uploaded have come from http://biopsychiatry.com/. I am afraid Wikipedia cannot use these images, unless the site's administrators have allowed their use (under GFDL licence). It is both against Wikipedia policies and against the law to use copyrighted material without the author's permission.

- I have to notify you once again on Image:Amobarbital.gif: it contains no information on its copyright status. Presumedly, you have created the image yourself and want to release it in public domain (just like the rest of your uploaded images). Right?
