Stolen image?
I've discovered that the Danish Wikipedi has at least one of my images that was given a different name and used without attribution. I know this kind of thing goes on all the time on the Internet, but I'm surprised to find it on Wikipedia. It is a (Bombus fraternus) on Eupatorium. It was renamed and posted at and at apparently by user Mosepors

I happened on this by coincidence. I don't speak a word of Danish, and cannot find any translation tools. How can I find if other images have also been appropriated? How can I communicate with the Danish Wikipedia? Pollinator 19:50, Apr 23, 2005 (UTC)
 * try posting a message at da:Wikipedia:Ambassaden (the embassy of the Danish wikipedia) or da:Wikipedia diskussion:Ambassaden (its talk page). There is at least one other message there in English that has been responded to. Thryduulf 20:18, 23 Apr 2005 (UTC)
 * I've updated the image description page on the Danish Wikipedia to link to the image description page here, and I've done my best to give you attribution (I don't speak Danish either, but if I've got it wrong someone who can will hopefully correct it). You released it under the GFDL and so, using the image elsewhere is perfectly acceptable – provided attribution is given (which I've made explicit), and that the conditions of the GFDL are passed on (I added a GFDL tag as well).
