Image talk:Drosera rotundifolia Distribution Map.png

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Thanks for making the distribution map! Could you list your sources? Also, alot of the extensive pink (introduced) areas surprise me - I was under the impression that almost all of the current habitat was natural. What source listed these areas as introduced? Thanks, --NoahElhardt 05:20, 1 June 2006 (UTC)

• Ppl on this site are quick to respond :) I hadn't even finished and someone's asking for refs. It's reassuring that there's ppl out there making sure I don't royally screw stuff up. Oh, and you were right, it was a problem w/ my translation of the Svenska original article, so the changes have been made. The ref is there, too. --chris 20:11, 1 June 2006 (UTC)

Hi Chris, Yeah, that is one of the beauties of Wikipedia: most vandalism and blatant errors are caught within hours, and even spelling gets cleaned up rather quickly :) Thanks for putting up the refs.

I plan to re-do the Drosera rotundifolia article completely some day when I have time, but feel free to do so if you'd like. I have a lot of habitat pictures from northern California and Oregon that I can upload. I was thinking an article similar to Drosera anglica would be nice. Eventually, I would like to make a distribution map for D. anglica similar to the one you made. What program did you use? If you used GIMP, I would appreciate a copy of the original file so that I can integrate it into a distribution map for Drosera × obovata, showing the regions where the distributions of D. anglica and D. rotundifolia overlap to create this hybrid. --NoahElhardt 20:35, 1 June 2006 (UTC)

I like the look of D. anglica, great design! I may use it as a template for other plants:) That image was just the Wikipedia blank world map (Image:BlankMap-World-v2.png), altered in MS Paint (I was at work).
