[edit] Image license

Hi there, I have seen that you have brought up discussions about image license on wikipedia. To me this is a very important issue that stops me from uploading images to wikipedia. I have many good images that I would like to upload but many of those I do not feel like release. I would like to allow my images to be used on wikipedia but not for any commercial use. How is this discussion going? --Krm500 19:11, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

Hi Krm500. I have to admit that this issue has died on its feet a bit, mostly because I haven't had the time to start a proper, organised discussion on the matter. I left the odd talk page note here and there about it but never got round to chasing it up. In all honesty, this may be a losing battle as there appears to be a great deal of inertia behind the current licensing policies, much of which appears to come from users who don't contribute their own images and who are therefore apparently not all that receptive to our concerns. There has been a long history of sporadic discussion on this topic at the Featured Pictures talk page but there's never even been a proper consensus there, let alone in the wider Wikipedia community. I graduate this summer (all going to plan) and hopefully I'll have a little more free time to devote to WP after this summer. If that's the case, I'll try to kick-start the discussion then - feel free to do so yourself in the meantime. Let me know if you get anywhere... :-) Happy editing, --YFB ¿ 19:45, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the update. --Krm500 23:22, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Killer whale FPC

Hello. A Featured Picture Candidate you commented on, Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/Killer whale mother and calf, is now in the section for "Older nominations requiring additional input from voters." Contributors have tried to improve it after you commented, and your opinion is welcome as to which, if any, of the available versions deserves promotion. I am sending this message to everyone who participated in the FPC. Thanks! Kla'quot 06:37, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Good catch

Thanks for fixing that on my talk page. For some reason I can read TCP/IP packets and program in perl first thing in the morning, but I have trouble with simple postings. You are doing a great job as my personal mistake corrector. ^High_InBC^{(Need help? Ask me)} 16:52, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

Heheh, no problem - glad you didn't mind. I can't program perl at any time of the day but I'm not bad at pedantry, we'd make a good team :D --YFB ¿ 16:55, 4 April 2007 (UTC)
