Please give images good descriptions edit

I noticed you've uploaded one or more images and I thought I should turn your attention to a common error.
Please give some thought to writing a good description of uploaded images. This ensures that they can be used. It also helps those that review and improve categories do a better job, which also ensures that images will get used in novel and interesting ways. Thanks, and happy editing! __ ABF __ ϑ 10:34, 3 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

Categorization edit

Thanks for great images. I have categorized some of them, please try to do that yourself next time you upload something. I will gladly help you. Juliux 17:44, 8 December 2007 (UTC)Reply


Image:Trifolium_aureum_4.jpg misidentified edit

Dear Tocekas,

your above image does not show either Trifolium aureum (as it is suggested on your personal page and by the file name) nor Trifolium dubium. I moved it to Trifolium campestre because this is extremely likely (even though I am not entirely sure that there might be a lookalike in your country which does not occur in Germany). My reasons are explained on the respective image talk page. If you agree then I would be grateful if you could check my changes because I am not very experienced in editing Wiki pages. And you should also correct the plant name on your personal page, of course. If I did something wrong then please complain either here or by mail (http://www.flogaus-faust.de/bc/mail.htm). Thank you!

Drugys edit

Sveikas, gal žinai koks File:Nymphalidae001.JPG čia drugys? Manau, kad kažkokia šaškytė, bet neesu įsitikinęs kuri rūšis. Hugo.arg (talk) 13:16, 20 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Sveikas, tiksliai nustatyti rūšį man taip pat yra sunku, todėl visada kreipiuosi į tai išmanančius žmones, t.y. į Lietuvos entomologus. Jei netingi užsiregistruok šiame forume, ten tikrai turėtum sulaukti gana tikslaus atsakymo. Sėkmės.--Tocekas (talk) 18:16, 22 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Duplicate files edit

Just so you know if you upload an image with an incorrect file name and then upload it again with the correct name, the proper procedure would be to add the {{duplicate|File:<Corrected filename>}} tag instead of the {{Delete}} tag. --Captain-tucker (talk) 16:58, 7 April 2010 (UTC)Reply

Ok--Tocekas (talk) 17:12, 7 April 2010 (UTC)Reply

Misidentified Image:Jasione montana.jpg edit

Dear Tocekas,

Image:Jasione montana.jpg shows a plant from the Dipsacaceae family, probably a Knautia species, not Jasione montana. I recategorized the image and removed it from the index of Jasione montana. But I have not corrected your personal page. -- Robert Flogaus-Faust (talk) 19:52, 5 May 2010 (UTC)Reply

In Lithuania is one species of Knautia. It is Knautia avensis.--Tocekas (talk) 07:40, 6 May 2010 (UTC)Reply

Jiesia edit

Image:Jiesia.jpg negali būti prie ištakų, kaip rašote (per didelė jau), bet kažkur prie Kauno ar Kaune. AR GALĖTUMET PATIKSLINTI IR IŠTAISYTI? OMG sorry for caps lock. --Kusurija (talk) 14:13, 15 August 2010 (UTC)Reply

butterfly edit

I've asked to change the name of file Aglais urticae 222.jpg into Nymphalis polychloros 222.jpg as it is this species. --DPC (talk) 11:01, 26 April 2012 (UTC)Reply
