[edit] Image copyright status

It has been brought to my attention that Image:B caapi dried.jpg and Image:B caapi.jpg require copyright verification, or they will be removed. I must admit that when I originally uploaded them I was rather new and I am now not sure where I obtained the images. Would anyone here be willing to devote a few minutes to chasing down these photos, verifying the status and making the correction? Of course newer pics would be appropriate as well.

I'd be sad to see these images removed, but copyrights really arn't my area... Sam Spade 14:34, 18 Jun 2005 (UTC)


[edit] Legality

'harmala' refers to a catagory of alkaloids, and is part of the botanical binomial for Syrian Rue. Unfortunately, it is used as the name of a proscribed chemical, or chemicals in this context. I do not have the text of these laws, and i strongly suspect that the exact description specifies 'harmine' and/or 'harmaline' and not 'harmala', if these laws exist. The text on French law is correct (unfortunately). Jcc 30 June 06

[edit] MUJERES

hello, i'm a chilean and i have noticed that in the image says "mujeras" i cant edit it but it is mujeres (women) ;) anyway i've edited the same word in another part of the text. if someone knows how to edit the text on the image please do it, or say it to the moderators or responsable people.

Done. Thanks. Phidauex 22:50, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] an unencyclopaedic mess.

this article is horrible at present. many references to many variants of b. caapi without ANY citation. as far as an ethnobotanist is concerned, b. caapi is b. caapi until further evidence, yes? --06:14, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
